NOVANTA INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF MARCH 28, 2025
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
Novanta Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, referred to as “Novanta”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) is a leading global supplier of core technology solutions that give medical and advanced industrial original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) a competitive advantage. Novanta combines deep proprietary technology expertise and competencies in precision medicine, precision manufacturing, robotics and automation, and advanced surgery with a proven ability to solve complex technical challenges. This enables Novanta to engineer core components and sub-systems that deliver extreme precision and performance, tailored to the customers' demanding applications.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in United States (“U.S.”) dollars and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the instructions to Form 10-Q and the provisions of Regulation S-X pertaining to interim financial statements. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted. The interim consolidated financial statements and notes included in this report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. In the opinion of management, these interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments and accruals of a normal and recurring nature necessary to fairly state the results of the interim periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or for any future periods.
The Company’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are prepared for each quarterly period ending on the Friday closest to the end of the calendar quarter, with the exception of the fourth quarter which always ends on December 31.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period in which such revisions are deemed to be necessary. The Company evaluates its estimates based on historical experience, current conditions, and various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The following table provides a brief description of recent Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”):
Standard |
|
Description |
|
Effective Date |
|
Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters |
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative.” |
|
ASU 2023-06 clarifies or improves disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of topics, which allow users to easily compare entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosure requirements with those entities that were not previously subject to such requirements and align the requirements in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification with the SEC’s regulations. |
|
The effective date for each amendment in ASU 2023-06 will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. |
|
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-06 on its consolidated financial statement disclosures. |

(Unaudited)
Standard |
|
Description |
|
Effective Date |
|
Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters |
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740) -Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." |
|
ASU 2023-09 provides more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. |
|
The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. |
|
The amendments in this update affects financial statement disclosure only and, as a result, will have no impact on results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. |
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” |
|
ASU 2024-03 improves financial reporting by requiring that public business entities disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at both interim and annual reporting periods. |
|
The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. |
|
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statement disclosures. |
2. Revenue
The Company accounts for its revenue transactions in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of control over goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
The Company recognizes revenue when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the customer. The transfer of control generally occurs upon shipment when title and risk of loss pass to the customer. The vast majority of the Company’s revenue is generated from the sale of distinct products. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for such products, which is generally at contractually stated prices. Sales taxes and value added taxes collected concurrently with revenue generating activities are excluded from revenue.
Performance Obligations
Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized at a point in time, upon shipment, rather than over time.
At the request of its customers, the Company may perform professional services, generally for the maintenance and repair of products previously sold to those customers and for engineering services. Professional services are typically short in duration and aggregate to less than
The Company occasionally sells separately priced non-standard/extended warranty services or preventative maintenance plans with the sale of products. The transfer of control over the service plans is over time. The Company recognizes the related revenue ratably over the terms of the service plans. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers or using the expected cost plus a margin.
Shipping & Handling Costs
The Company accounts for shipping and handling activities that occur after the transfer of control over the related goods as fulfillment activities rather than performance obligations. Shipping and handling fees charged to customers are recognized as revenue and the related costs are recorded in cost of revenue at the time of transfer of control.

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Fully vested restricted stock units and deferred stock units granted to members of the Company’s Board of Directors are included in the calculation of weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
For diluted earnings per common share, the denominator includes the dilutive effect of outstanding common share equivalents. The dilutive effects of outstanding common share equivalents, including outstanding service-based restricted stock units, stock options and performance-based restricted stock units, are determined using the treasury stock method. Performance-based restricted stock units are considered contingently issuable shares, the vesting of which may be based on achievement of specified company financial performance metrics (“attainment-based PSUs”), certain market conditions (“market-based PSUs”) or a hybrid of company financial performance metrics and market conditions (“hybrid PSUs”). The dilutive effects of market-based PSUs are included in the weighted average common share calculation based on the number of shares, if any, that would be issuable as of the end of the reporting period, assuming the end of the reporting period is also the end of the performance period. The dilutive effects of attainment-based and hybrid PSUs are included in the weighted average common share calculation based on the cumulative achievement against the performance targets only when the performance targets have been achieved as of the end of the reporting period.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share (amounts in thousands, except per share data):

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” establishes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the third is considered unobservable:
Current Assets and Liabilities
The Company’s cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, which represent assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company determines the fair value of cash equivalents using a market approach based on quoted prices in active markets. The fair values of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, income taxes receivable, accounts payable, income taxes payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their carrying values because of their short-term nature.
Foreign Currency Contracts
The Company addresses market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates through a risk management program that includes the use of derivative financial instruments to mitigate certain balance sheet foreign currency transaction exposures. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts as a part of its strategy to manage exposures related to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts is reported either in other current assets or in other current liabilities as of the end of the period.
Summary by Fair Value Hierarchy

The Company addresses market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates through a risk management program that includes the use of derivative financial instruments to mitigate certain foreign currency transaction exposures from future settlement of non-functional currency monetary assets and liabilities as of the end of a period. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes. Gains and losses on these derivative financial instruments substantially offset losses and gains on the underlying hedged exposures and are included in foreign exchange transaction gains (losses) in the consolidated statements of operations. Furthermore, the Company manages its exposures to counterparty risks on derivative instruments by entering into contracts with a diversified group of major financial institutions and by actively monitoring outstanding positions.
As of March 28, 2025, the aggregate notional amount and fair value of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts was $
The Company recognized an aggregate net gain of $
7. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill
Goodwill is recorded when the consideration paid for a business combination exceeds the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. The Company tests its goodwill balances for impairment annually as of the beginning of the second quarter or more frequently if indicators are present or changes in circumstances suggest that an impairment may exist. The Company performed the most recent annual goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test as of the beginning of the second quarter of 2024 and noted

12. Income Taxes
The Company determines its estimated annual effective tax rate at the end of each interim period based on full year forecasted pre-tax income and facts known at that time. The estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to the year-to-date pre-tax income at the end of each interim period with the cumulative effect of any changes in the estimated annual effective tax rate being recorded in the period in which the changes are determined. The tax effect of significant unusual items is reflected in the period in which they occur. Since the Company is incorporated in Canada, it is required to use Canada’s statutory tax rate of
The Company maintains a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets associated with certain U.S. state net operating losses, credits and certain non-U.S. tax attributes that the Company has determined are not more likely than not to be realized. A valuation allowance is required when, based upon an assessment of various factors, including recent operating loss history, anticipated future earnings, and prudent and reasonable tax planning strategies, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In conjunction with the Company’s ongoing review of its actual results and anticipated future earnings, the Company continuously reassesses the possibility of adding a new or additional valuation allowance or releasing the valuation allowance currently in place on its deferred tax assets.

14. Commitments and Contingencies
Purchase Commitments
There have been no material changes to the Company’s purchase commitments since December 31, 2024.
Legal Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses the potential financial exposure on a quarterly basis. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, the Company accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination as to whether an exposure is reasonably estimable. Because of uncertainties related to these matters, accruals are based only on the best

information available as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet. As additional information becomes available, the Company reassesses the potential liability related to any pending claims and litigation and may revise its estimates. When a material loss contingency is considered reasonably possible but not probable, the Company does not record a liability, but instead discloses the nature and the amount of the claim, and an estimate of the potential loss or a range of potential losses, if such an estimate can be reasonably made. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. The Company does not believe that the outcome of outstanding claims will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial statements but there can be no assurance that any such claims, or any similar claims, would not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
In the normal course of its operations, the Company executes agreements that provide for indemnification and guarantees to counterparties in transactions such as business dispositions, sale of assets, sale of products, and operating leases. Additionally, the by-laws of the Company require it to indemnify certain current or former directors, officers, and employees of the Company against expenses incurred by them in connection with each proceeding in which they are involved as a result of serving or having served in certain capacities. Indemnification is not available with respect to a proceeding as to which it has been adjudicated that the person did not act in good faith in the reasonable belief that the action was in the best interests of the Company. Certain of the Company’s officers and directors are also a party to indemnification agreements with the Company. These indemnification agreements provide, among other things, that the director or officer shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such director or officer in connection with any proceeding by reason of their relationship with the Company. In addition, the indemnification agreements provide for the advancement of expenses incurred by such director or officer in connection with any proceeding covered by the indemnification agreement, subject to the conditions set forth therein and to the extent such advancement is not prohibited by law. The indemnification agreements also set out the procedures for determining entitlement to indemnification, the requirements relating to notice and defense of claims for which indemnification is sought, the procedures for enforcement of indemnification rights, the limitations on and exclusions from indemnification, and the minimum levels of directors and officers liability insurance to be maintained by the Company.

Accounting Period
The interim consolidated financial statements of Novanta Inc. (the “Company”, “Novanta”, “we”, “us”, “our”) are prepared for each quarterly period ending on the Friday closest to the end of the calendar quarter, except for the fourth quarter which always ends on December 31.
Business Overview
We are a leading global supplier of core technology solutions that give medical and advanced industrial original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) a competitive advantage. We combine deep proprietary technology expertise and competencies in precision medicine, precision manufacturing, robotics and automation, and advanced surgery with a proven ability to solve complex technical challenges. This enables us to engineer core components and sub-systems that deliver extreme precision and performance, tailored to our customers' demanding applications.
Reportable Segments
Reporting Segment Change
During the fourth quarter of 2024, we updated our organizational structure and re-aligned our financial reporting structure under two reportable segments: Automation Enabling Technologies and Medical Solutions. Prior to the reorganization, our historical reportable segments were: Precision Medicine and Manufacturing, Robotics and Automation, and Medical Solutions. Prior period segment financial information has been recast to align with the new reportable segments.
We operate in two reportable segments: Automation Enabling Technologies and Medical Solutions. The reportable segments and their principal activities are summarized below.
Automation Enabling Technologies
The Automation Enabling Technologies segment designs, manufactures and markets laser beam delivery components, laser beam delivery solutions, CO2 lasers, solid state lasers, ultrafast lasers, optical and inductive encoders, precision motors, integrated stepper motors, servo drives, motion control solutions, intelligent robotic end-of-arm technology solutions, and air bearing spindles to customers worldwide. The segment serves highly demanding applications for advanced industrial processes, advanced industrial and medical robotics, other medical and life science automation applications, and medical laser procedures such as ophthalmology applications. The vast majority of the segment’s product offerings are sold to OEM customers. The segment sells the majority of these products directly, utilizing a highly technical sales force, and also sells some indirectly, through resellers and distributors.
Medical Solutions
The Medical Solutions segment designs, manufactures and markets a range of medical grade technologies, including medical insufflators and endoscopic pumps and related disposables, laser beam delivery solutions, video processing and streaming and capture, machine vision technologies, radio frequency identification (“RFID”) technologies, barcode identification technologies, thermal chart recorders, light and color measurement technologies, touch panel displays, and advanced motion control solutions. The vast majority of the segment’s product offerings are sold to OEM customers. The segment sells the majority of these products directly, utilizing a highly technical sales force, and also sells some indirectly, through resellers and distributors.
End Markets
We primarily operate in two end markets: the medical market and the advanced industrial market.
Medical Market
For the three months ended March 28, 2025, the medical market accounted for approximately 55% of our revenue. Revenue from our products sold to the medical market is generally affected by hospital, life science, and other healthcare provider capital spending, growth rates of surgical procedures, changes in regulatory requirements and laws, demand level for life science automation technology, aggregation of purchasing by healthcare networks, changes in technology requirements, timing of OEM customers’ product development and new product launches, changes in customer or patient preferences, and general demographic trends.
27
Advanced Industrial Market
For the three months ended March 28, 2025, the advanced industrial market accounted for approximately 45% of our revenue. Revenue from our products sold to the advanced industrial market is affected by a number of factors, including changing technology requirements and preferences of our customers, productivity or quality investments in a manufacturing environment, the financial conditions of our customers, changes in regulatory requirements and laws, and general economic conditions. We believe that the PMI on manufacturing activities specific to different regions around the world may provide an indication of the impact of general economic conditions on our sales into the advanced industrial market.
Strategy
Our strategy is to drive sustainable, profitable growth through short-term and long-term initiatives, including:
Significant Events and Updates
Acquisition of Keonn Technologies, S.L.
On April 8, 2025, the Company acquired 100% the outstanding stock of Keonn Technologies, S.L. (“Keonn”), a Barcelona, Spain-based leader in Radio-Frequency Identification (“RFID”) solutions for an initial cash payment of €60.6 million ($66.4 million), subject to customary closing and net working capital adjustments. The purchase includes up to €20.0 million ($21.9 million) in contingent consideration payable upon the achievement of certain revenue targets through December 2027. In addition, the Company has granted equity totaling €9.0 million ($9.9 million) to Keonn employees.
Business Environment
In recent years, the global economy has faced significant challenges, including inflation, supply chain disruptions, business slowdowns, labor shortages, and market volatility, and recently new and proposed tariffs announced by the U.S. Presidential Administration have introduced additional uncertainty. We address macroeconomic challenges by continuing to execute our strategy. There have been improvements in the supply chain with better on-time deliveries, and recent efforts have successfully addressed talent shortages. However, uncertainty remains about overall macroeconomic conditions due to geopolitical tensions and changes in trade policies.
28
Economic tensions and changes in trade policies, such as higher tariffs, retaliatory measures, renegotiated free trade agreements, changes in government funding, and the ongoing impact from prolonged inflationary pressures could impact the global market for our products and the cost to manufacture.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 28, 2025 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 29, 2024
Overview of Financial Results
Total revenue of $233.4 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025 increased $2.5 million, or 1.1%, from the prior year period. Foreign currency exchange rates unfavorably impacted our revenue by $1.5 million, or 0.6%, for the three months ended March 28, 2025.
Operating income of $32.4 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025 increased $6.8 million, or 26.6%, from the prior year period. This increase was attributable to an increase in gross profit of $4.0 million and a decrease in restructuring, acquisition and related charges of $4.7 million, partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $2.1 million.
Basic earnings per common share (“Basic EPS”) of $0.59 for the three months ended March 28, 2025 increased $0.18 from the prior year period. Diluted earnings per common share (“Diluted EPS”) of $0.59 for the three months ended March 28, 2025 increased $0.18 from the prior year period. The increases were primarily due to an increase in operating income and a decrease in interest expense, partially offset by an increase in income tax provision.

Gross profit and gross profit margin can be influenced by a number of factors, including product mix, pricing, volume, manufacturing efficiencies and utilization, costs for raw materials and outsourced manufacturing, trade tariffs, freight costs, headcount, inventory excess and obsolescence, and warranty expenses.
Automation Enabling Technologies
Automation Enabling Technologies segment gross profit for the three months ended March 28, 2025 increased $3.9 million, or 7.0%, versus the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in both revenue and gross profit margin. Automation Enabling Technologies segment gross profit margin was 48.2% for the three months ended March 28, 2025, versus a gross profit margin of 47.3% for the prior year period. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily attributable to product mix.
Medical Solutions
Medical Solutions segment gross profit for the three months ended March 28, 2025 decreased $0.3 million, or 0.6%, versus the prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in revenue. Medical Solutions segment gross profit margin was 41.7% for the three months ended March 28, 2025, versus a gross profit margin of 40.7% for the prior year period. The increase in gross profit margin is primarily due to a one-time inventory fair value adjustment associated with a prior year acquisition, partially offset by product mix.

Research and Development and Engineering Expenses
Research and Development and Engineering (“R&D”) expenses are primarily comprised of employee compensation related expenses and cost of materials for R&D projects. R&D expenses were $23.2 million, or 10.0% of revenue, during the three months ended March 28, 2025, versus $23.2 million, or 10.1% of revenue, during the prior year period.
30
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses include costs for sales and marketing, sales administration, finance, human resources, legal, information systems, and executive management functions. SG&A expenses were $45.6 million, or 19.5% of revenue, during the three months ended March 28, 2025, versus $43.5 million, or 18.9% of revenue, during the prior year period. The increase in SG&A expenses, both in total dollars and as a percentage of revenue, was primarily driven by higher outside service spending and employee compensation.
Amortization of Purchased Intangible Assets
Amortization of purchased intangible assets, excluding amortization of developed technologies which is included in cost of revenue, was $5.6 million, or 2.4% of revenue, during the three months ended March 28, 2025, versus $5.8 million, or 2.5% of revenue, during the prior year period.
Restructuring, Acquisition, and Related Costs
We recorded restructuring, acquisition, and related costs of $(2.5) million during the three months ended March 28, 2025, versus $2.3 million during the prior year period. The decrease in restructuring, acquisition and related costs was primarily due to a gain on the sale of an owned facility.

The increase in operating income was primarily due to an increase in gross profit of $3.9 million and a decrease in restructuring, acquisition and related charges of $3.4 million.
Medical Solutions
Medical Solutions segment operating income was $14.0 million, or 12.7% of revenue, during the three months ended March 28, 2025, versus $16.0 million, or 14.1% of revenue, during the prior year period. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to an increase in SG&A expenses of $1.1 million and an increase in R&D expenses of $0.7 million.
Unallocated
Unallocated costs primarily represent costs of corporate and shared services functions that are not allocated to the operating segments, including certain restructuring and most acquisition costs. These costs for the three months ended March 28, 2025 decreased $1.2 million versus the prior year period. The decrease in operating loss was primarily due to a decrease in acquisition and related charges of $1.0 million.

Interest Income (Expense), Net
Net interest expense was $5.6 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025, versus $8.3 million for the prior year period. The decrease in net interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in the average debt levels under our senior credit facilities and a decrease in the weighted average interest rate. The weighted average interest rate on our senior credit facilities was 5.77% during the three months ended March 28, 2025, versus 6.54% during the prior year period.
Foreign Exchange Transaction Gains (Losses), Net
Foreign exchange transaction gains (losses) were nominal for the three months ended March 28, 2025 and the three months ended March 29, 2024.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Net other expense was nominal for the three months ended March 28, 2025 and the three months ended March 29, 2024.
Income Tax Provision (Benefit)
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 28, 2025, was 19.7%, versus 13.2% for the prior year period. Our effective tax rate of 19.7% for the three months ended March 28, 2025 differs from the Canadian statutory tax rate of 29.0% primarily due to the mix of income earned in jurisdictions with varying tax rates, estimated deductions for Foreign Derived Intangible Income, U.K. patent box deductions and R&D tax credits, partially offset by disallowed compensation deductions, withholding taxes, non-deductible expenses and an estimated Pillar Two inclusion.
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 29, 2024 of 13.2% differs from the Canadian statutory tax rate of 29.0% primarily due to the mix of income earned in jurisdictions with varying tax rates, estimated deductions for Foreign Derived Intangible Income, U.K. patent box deductions, R&D tax credits, and windfall tax benefits upon vesting of share-based compensation awards, partially offset by disallowed compensation deductions, uncertain tax position accruals, and estimated Pillar Two inclusion. For the three months ended March 29, 2024, the tax benefits upon vesting of certain share-based compensation awards had a benefit of 6.8% on the Company’s effective tax rate.
On December 12, 2022, the EU member states agreed to implement the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (“OECD”) Pillar Two Model Rules. These rules, which impose a global corporate minimum income tax rate of 15%, have been enacted or introduced in proposed legislation in 45 countries. Additional countries are actively considering changes to their tax laws to adopt certain parts of the OECD’s proposals. We operate in many jurisdictions that have adopted these rules. We fall under the transitional safe harbor rules in the majority of jurisdictions in which we operate and are therefore not subject to the Pillar Two global minimum tax. Where we cannot apply the safe harbor rules, we have estimated the impact of this minimum tax in our effective tax rate analysis. We continue to closely monitor the progression of legislative activities.
32
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing, and financing activities. Our primary ongoing cash requirements are funding operations, capital expenditures, investments in businesses, and repayment of our debt and related interest payments. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We believe our future operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our future operating and capital expenditure cash needs for the foreseeable future, including at least the next 12 months. The availability of borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility provides another potential source of liquidity for any future capital expenditures and other liquidity needs. In addition, we have the ability to expand our borrowing capacity by up to $350.0 million by exercising the accordion option under our revolving credit agreement. We may also seek to raise additional capital, which could be in the form of bonds, convertible debt or preferred or common equity, to fund business development activities or other future investing cash requirements, subject to approval by the lenders in the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”). There is no assurance that such capital will be available on reasonable terms or at all.
Significant factors affecting the management of our ongoing cash requirements are the adequacy of available bank lines of credit and our ability to attract long term capital with satisfactory terms. The sources of our liquidity are subject to all of the risks of our business and could be adversely affected by, among other factors, risks associated with events outside of our control, such as economic consequences of geopolitical conflicts, monetary, fiscal, tax or trade policy changes in the U.S. and other countries and their impact on the global financial markets, a decrease in demand for our products, our ability to integrate current and future acquisitions, deterioration in certain financial ratios, availability of borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and other market changes in general. See “Risks Relating to Our Common Shares and Our Capital Structure” included in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
Our cash requirements primarily consist of principal and interest payments associated with our Senior Credit Facilities (as defined below), operating and finance leases, purchase commitments, and pension obligations. Such contractual obligations are described in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, each included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. On April 8, 2025, we drew down on our revolving credit facility under the Senior Credit Facilities to fund the acquisition of Keonn Technologies, S.L.
Our ability to make payments on our indebtedness and to fund our operations may be dependent upon the operating income and the distribution of funds from our subsidiaries. However, as local laws and regulations and/or the terms of our indebtedness restrict certain of our subsidiaries from paying dividends and transferring assets to us, there is no assurance that our subsidiaries will be permitted to provide us with sufficient dividends, distributions or loans when necessary.
As of March 28, 2025, $77.2 million of our $106.0 million cash and cash equivalents was held by subsidiaries outside of Canada and the U.S. Generally, our intent is to use cash held in these foreign subsidiaries to fund our local operations or acquisitions by those local subsidiaries and to pay down borrowings under our Senior Credit Facilities. Approximately $88.3 million of our outstanding term loan and revolver borrowings under our Senior Credit Facilities were held in our subsidiaries outside of Canada and the U.S. as of March 28, 2025. Additionally, we may use intercompany loans to address short-term cash flow needs for various subsidiaries.
Senior Credit Facilities
In December 2019, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), originally consisting of a $100.0 million U.S. dollar equivalent euro-denominated (approximately €90.2 million) 5-year term loan facility and a $350.0 million 5-year revolving credit facility (collectively, the “Senior Credit Facilities”). The Senior Credit Facilities had an original maturity date of December 2024 and included an uncommitted accordion option pursuant to which the commitments under the revolving credit facility may be increased by an additional $200.0 million in aggregate, subject to certain customary conditions. The term loan facility requires quarterly scheduled principal repayments of approximately €1.1 million beginning in March 2020 with the remaining principal balance due upon maturity. We may make additional principal payments at any time, which will reduce the next quarterly installment payment due. We may pay down outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility with cash on hand and cash generated from future operations at any time.
On March 27, 2020, we entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement and exercised a portion of the uncommitted accordion option. The First Amendment increased the revolving credit facility commitment under the Credit Agreement by $145.0 million, from $350.0 million to $495.0 million, and reset the uncommitted accordion option to $200.0 million for potential future expansion.
On October 5, 2021, we entered into an amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement to exercise the accordion option. The Fourth Amendment increased the revolving credit facility commitment under the Credit Agreement by $200.0
33
million, from $495.0 million to $695.0 million, and reset the uncommitted accordion option to $200.0 million for potential future expansion.
On March 10, 2022, we entered into an amendment (the “Fifth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date thereof from December 31, 2024 to March 10, 2027, update the pricing grid, replace LIBOR with SOFR as the reference rate for U.S. dollar borrowings, and increase the uncommitted accordion option from $200 million to $350 million.
As of March 28, 2025, we had $71.6 million term loan and $320.8 million revolver borrowings outstanding under our Senior Credit Facilities. The borrowings outstanding under the Senior Credit Facilities bear interest at rates based on (a) the Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement, plus a margin ranging between 0.00% and 0.75% per annum, determined by reference to our consolidated leverage ratio, or (b) the Term SOFR Screen Rate, the Alternative Currency Daily Rate or the Alternative Currency Term Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement, plus a margin ranging between 0.75% and 1.75% per annum, determined by reference to our consolidated leverage ratio. In addition, we are obligated to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility, ranging between 0.20% and 0.30% per annum, determined by reference to our consolidated leverage ratio. As of March 28, 2025, we had outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement denominated in Euro and U.S. dollars of $88.3 million and $304.1 million, respectively.
The Credit Agreement contains various covenants that we believe are usual and customary for this type of agreement, including a maximum consolidated leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The following table summarizes these financial covenants and our compliance therewith as of March 28, 2025:

Share Repurchase Plans
Our Board of Directors may approve share repurchase plans from time to time. Under these repurchase plans, shares may be repurchased at our discretion based on ongoing assessment of the capital needs of the business, the market price of our common shares, and general market conditions. Shares may also be repurchased through an accelerated share purchase agreement, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. Repurchases may be made under certain SEC regulations, which would permit common shares to be repurchased when we would otherwise be prohibited from doing so under insider trading laws. While the share repurchase plans are generally intended to offset dilution from equity awards granted to our employees and directors, the plans do not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common shares. No time limit is typically set for the completion of the share repurchase plans, and the plans may be suspended or discontinued at any time. We expect to fund share repurchases through cash on hand and cash generated from operations.
In February 2020, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan (the “2020 Repurchase Plan”) authorizing the repurchase of $50.0 million worth of common shares. Share repurchases have been made under the 2020 Repurchase Plan pursuant to Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We repurchased 46 thousand shares under the 2020 Repurchase Plan for an aggregate purchase price of $6.2 million and average price of $134.54 per share during the three months ended March 28, 2025. We had $43.3 million available for share repurchases under the 2020 Repurchase Plan as of March 28, 2025.

Operating Cash Flows
Cash provided by operating activities was $31.7 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025, versus $32.8 million for the prior year period.
Investing Cash Flows
Cash provided by investing activities was $1.3 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025, primarily driven by $5.5 million of cash received from the sale of properties. We also paid $4.3 million for capital expenditures.
Cash used in investing activities was $197.6 million for the three months ended March 29, 2024, primarily related to the $191.2 million of cash considerations (net of cash acquired) paid for our 2024 acquisition and $6.4 million for capital expenditures.
We expect to use an aggregate of approximately $20 million to $30 million in 2025 for capital expenditures related to investments in new property, plant and equipment for our existing businesses.
Financing Cash Flows
Cash used in financing activities was $42.7 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025, primarily driven by $29.7 million of term loan and revolving credit facility repayments, $6.7 million of payroll tax payments upon vesting of share-based compensation awards and $6.2 million related to the repurchase of common shares.
Cash provided by financing activities was $153.5 million for the three months ended March 29, 2024, primarily driven by $198.0 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility to fund our 2024 acquisition, partially offset by $36.0 million of term loan and revolving credit facility repayments and $8.4 million of payroll tax payments upon vesting of share-based compensation awards.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The critical accounting policies that we believe impact significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements presented in this periodic report on Form 10-Q are described in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, each included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates through March 28, 2025 from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our primary market risk exposures are foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and interest rate sensitivity. During the three months ended March 28, 2025, there have been no material changes to the information included under Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of March 28, 2025, the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 28, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 28, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
36
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the outcome of these claims will have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition or results of operations but there can be no assurance that any such claims, or any similar claims, would not have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which could adversely affect our business, financial conditions and future results. Other than the risk factor set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors discussed in our Annual Report.
Our results of operations could be adversely affected by economic and political conditions and the effects of these conditions on our customers’ businesses, capital expenditures and levels of business activities.
A large portion of our product sales are dependent on our customers’ need for increased capacity, productivity and cost saving initiatives, improved product quality and performance, and new investments. Weaknesses in our end markets could negatively impact our revenue and gross margin and consequently have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. A severe and/or prolonged overall economic downturn or a negative or uncertain political climate could lead to weaknesses in our end markets and adversely affect our customers’ financial condition and the timing or levels of our customers’ capital expenditures or business activities. We have experienced significant cyclical end market fluctuations in the past. For example, diminished growth expectations, economic and political uncertainty in regions across the globe and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic adversely impacted our customers’ financial condition and ability to maintain product order levels and reduced the demand for our products in 2020, and other pandemics and public health crises could have similar consequences. Political conditions, including new and changing laws or tariffs, regulations, government funding, executive orders and enforcement priorities, may impact customer budgets and create uncertainty about how such laws and regulations will be interpreted and applied, which may impact customer demand and adversely impact our business. For example, changes in the regulatory environment affecting life sciences, bioprocessing, and pharmaceutical companies, and reduced headcount and budget allocations to government agencies that fund research and development activities, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (‘FDA’), U.S. National Institutes of Health (‘NIH’), or targeted headcount reductions or cancellations of certain grants or contracts by the U.S. federal government, could adversely affect our business or results of operations. In addition, certain sub-segments of the advanced industrial market that we serve, including the microelectronics and industrial capital equipment sector, are cyclical and have historically experienced periods of oversupply, resulting in downturns in demand for capital equipment in which many of our products are used. It is difficult to predict the timing, length and severity of these downturns and their impact on our business. Further, our order levels or results of operations for a given period may not be indicative of order levels or results of operations for subsequent periods. For the foreseeable future, our operations will continue to depend upon industries that are subject to market cycles which, in turn, could adversely affect the market demand for our products.
We have also faced increases in inflationary conditions in materials and components. These inflationary conditions have caused us to increase prices; however, such price increases may not be accepted by our customers or may not adequately offset the increases in our costs, thereby negatively affecting our results of operations. Changes in global economic conditions, including inflationary conditions, could also shift demand for products or services for which we do not have competitive advantages. This could negatively affect the amount of business that we are able to obtain. In addition, if we are unable to successfully anticipate changes in economic and political conditions, we may be unable to effectively plan for and respond to those changes, and our business could be negatively affected.
