VIRCO MFG. CORPORATION
Notes to unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
October 31, 2023
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2023 (“Form 10-K”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months and nine months ended October 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2024. The balance sheet at January 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. All references to the “Company” refer to Virco Mfg. Corporation and its subsidiaries.
Note 2. Seasonality and Management Use of Estimates
The market for educational furniture is marked by extreme seasonality, with approximately 50 % of the Company’s total sales typically occurring from June to August each year, the Company’s peak season. Hence, the Company typically builds and carries significant amounts of inventory during and in anticipation of this peak summer season to facilitate the rapid delivery requirements of customers in the educational market. This requires a large up-front investment in inventory, labor, storage and related costs as inventory is built in anticipation of peak sales during the summer months. As the capital required for this build-up generally exceeds cash available from operations, the Company has generally relied on third-party bank financing to meet cash flow requirements during the build-up period immediately preceding the peak season. In addition, the Company typically is faced with an overall higher accounts receivable balance during the peak season. This occurs for two primary reasons. First, accounts receivable balances typically increase during the peak season as shipments of products increase. Second, many customers during this period are educational institutions and government entities, which tend to pay accounts receivable slower than commercial customers.
Note 3. Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Company evaluates all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") for consideration of their applicability to our condensed consolidated financial statements. We have assessed all ASUs issued but not yet adopted and concluded that those not disclosed are not relevant to the Company or are not expected to have a material impact.
Note 4. Revenue Recognition
The Company manufactures, markets and distributes a wide variety of school and office furniture to wholesalers, distributors, educational institutions and governmental entities. Revenue is recorded for promised goods or services when control is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
The Company's sales generally involve a single performance obligation to deliver goods pursuant to customer purchase orders. Prices for our products are based on published price lists and customer agreements. The Company has determined that the performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time when the Company completes delivery per the customer contract. The majority of sales are free on board ("FOB") destination where the destination is specified per the customer contract and may
12
include delivering the furniture into the classroom, school site or warehouse. Sales of furniture that are sold FOB factory are typically made to resellers of our product who in turn provide logistics to the ultimate customer. Once a product has been delivered per the shipping terms, the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset. The Company considers control to have transferred upon shipment or delivery in accordance with shipping terms because the Company has a present right to payment at that time, the customer has legal title to the asset, the Company has transferred physical possession of the asset, and the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset.
Sales are recorded net of discounts, sales incentives and rebates, sales taxes and estimated returns and allowances. The Company offers sales incentives and discounts through various regional and national programs to our customers. These programs include product rebates, product returns allowances and trade promotions. Variable consideration for these programs is estimated in the transaction price at contract inception based on current sales levels and historical experience using the expected value method, subject to constraint.
The Company generates revenue primarily by manufacturing and distributing products through resellers and direct-to-customers. Control transfers to both resellers and direct customers at a point in time when the delivery process is complete as determined by the corresponding shipping terms. Therefore, we do not consider them to be meaningfully different revenue streams given similarities in the nature of the products, performance obligation and distribution processes. Sales are predominately in the United States and to a similar class of customer. We do not manage or evaluate the business based on product line or any other discernable category.
Note 5. Inventories
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) and includes material, labor, and factory overhead. The Company records valuation adjustments for the excess cost of the inventory over its estimated net realizable value. Valuation adjustments for slow-moving and obsolete inventory are calculated using an estimated percentage applied to inventories based on a physical inspection of the product in connection with a physical inventory, a review of slow-moving products and component stage, inventory category, historical and forecasted consumption of sales, and consideration of active marketing programs. The market for education furniture is traditionally driven by value, not style, and the Company has not typically incurred material obsolescence expenses. If market conditions are less favorable than those anticipated by management, additional valuation adjustments may be required. The Company records the cost of excess capacity as a period expense, not as a component of capitalized inventory valuation.
The following table presents a breakdown of the Company’s inventories as of October 31, 2023, January 31, 2023 and October 31, 2022:

Note 6. Leases
The Company has operating leases on real property, equipment, and automobiles, expiring at various dates through 2026. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and assesses classification of the lease at commencement. All of the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable, or the incremental borrowing rate. Our incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments using Company specific credit spreads. The Company’s lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease only when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for our operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company has an operating lease for its corporate office and manufacturing and distribution facility located in Torrance, California, currently with a remaining lease term through April 2025. The Company's lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease only when it is reasonably certain that we exercise that option. The Company leases equipment under a 5-
13
year operating lease arrangement. The Company has the option of buying the assets at the end of the lease period at a price that does not result in the Company being reasonably certain of exercising the option. In addition, the Company leases trucks and automobiles under operating leases that include certain fleet management and maintenance services. Certain of the leases contain renewal or purchase options and require payment for property taxes and insurance. The Company records lease expense on a straight-line basis based on the contractual lease payments. The Company recognizes the present value of the future lease commitments as an operating lease liability, and a corresponding right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”), net of tenant allowances. Tenant improvements and related tenant allowances are recorded as a reduction to the ROU asset. The Company elected to account for leases with an original term of 12 months or less that do not contain a purchase option as short-term leases. Additionally, certain of the leases provide for variable payment for property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance payments, among others. The Company recognizes variable lease expenses for these leases in the period incurred. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
The quantitative information regarding our leases is as follows:

The Company and Virco Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Borrowers”) has a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and lender (“PNC”). The Credit Agreement was amended numerous times since its origination in December 2011. On September 28, 2021, the Borrowers entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Restated Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, which amended and restated the prior Credit Agreement and effectively incorporated all of the prior amendments into an amended and restated form of agreement.
The Restated Credit Agreement permits the Company to issue dividends or make payments with respect to the Company’s capital stock in an aggregate amount up to $3.0 million during any fiscal year, provided that no default shall have occurred or is continuing or would result from any such payment, and the Company must demonstrate pro forma compliance with a 12-month trailing fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.20 :1.00 as of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of any such dividend or payment. The Restated Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and contains numerous other covenants that limit under certain circumstances the ability of the Borrowers and their subsidiaries to, among other things, merge with or acquire other entities, incur new liens, incur additional indebtedness, sell assets outside of the ordinary course of business, enter into transactions with affiliates, or substantially change the general nature of the business of the Borrowers. In connection with the Restated Credit Agreement, the Company also agreed to pay to PNC Bank a non-refundable fee of $50,000 .
In addition to the financial covenants, the Restated Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default, subject to certain cure periods and other limitations. Substantially all of the Borrowers' accounts receivable are automatically and promptly swept to repay amounts outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement upon receipt by the Borrowers. Due to this automatic liquidating nature of the Restated Credit Agreement, if the Borrowers breach any covenant, violate any representation or warranty or suffer a deterioration in their ability to borrow pursuant to the borrowing base calculation, the Borrowers may not have access to cash liquidity unless provided by PNC at its discretion.
The other material terms of the Restated Credit Agreement are substantially the same as those of the original Credit Agreement, consisting of (i) a revolving line of credit with a Maximum Revolving Advance Amount of $65.0 million that is subject to a borrowing base limitation and generally provides for advances of up to 85 % of eligible accounts receivable, plus a percentage equal to the lesser of 60 % of the value of eligible inventory or 85 % of the liquidation value of eligible inventory, plus $15.0 million from January through July of each year, minus undrawn amounts of letters of credit and reserves and (ii) an equipment loan of $2.0 million. The Restated Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Borrowers’ personal property and certain of the Borrowers’ real property. The Restated Credit Agreement is subject to certain prepayment penalties upon early termination of the Restated Credit Agreement. Prior to the maturity date, principal amounts outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement may be repaid and reborrowed at the option of the Borrowers without premium or penalty, subject to borrowing base limitations, seasonal adjustments and certain other conditions, including reduced borrowings under the revolving line to less than or equal $10.0 million for a period of 30 consecutive days during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. The Restated Credit Agreement also contains certain financial covenants, including covenants requiring a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and limits on capital expenditures. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of October 31, 2023.
The Company's revolving line of credit with PNC is structured to provide seasonal credit availability during the Company's peak summer season. Approximately $23.1 million was available for borrowing as of October 31, 2023. The interest rate for outstanding loan balances during the quarter ended October 31, 2023 was 10.00 %. The Company also incurs a fee on the unused portion of the revolving line of credit at a rate of 0.375 %.

In addition to the outstanding debt balance of $3.7 million on the Company's revolving credit line, the Company also carries a mortgage on a manufacturing building in Conway Arkansas. The original note was dated August 2017 for $5.8 million, at a fixed rate of 4 % per year and 20 year term. The outstanding amount under this note was $4.4 million as of October 31, 2023.
On May 19, 2023, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (“Amendment No. 3”) with PNC, with an effective date of May 5, 2023. Amendment No. 3 amended the Restated Credit Agreement and the secured revolving line of credit provided to the Company under the revolving credit facility to reflect the following material changes:
i.Maximum size of the PNC line of credit has been increased to $72.5 million during the months of June through August of 2023, to provide additional availability for the Company’s forecast through the 2023 peak borrowing period;
ii.Increase in the total inventory sublimit under the Credit Agreement to $35.0 million and increase in the Assemble-to-ship (ATS) inventory sublimit to $15.0 million during the months of May through August of 2023;
iii.The Company agreed to pay an amendment fee of $50,000 , which is 0.67 % on the incremental line increase of $7.5 million; and
iv.Increase in the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 25 basis points.
Management believes that the carrying value of debt approximated fair value at October 31, 2023, as all of the long-term debt bears interest at variable rates based on prevailing market conditions ,except mortgage on a manufacturing building in Conway Arkansas at a fixed rate of 4 % per year.
Note 8. Income Taxes
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income or reversal of deferred tax liabilities during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. As a part of this evaluation, the Company assesses all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, the availability of tax carry backs, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations, to determine whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to realize existing deferred tax assets. Valuation allowances of $255,000 , $864,000 and $8,893,000 as of October 31, 2023, January 31, 2023 and October 31, 2022, respectively, are needed for federal deferred tax assets and certain state net operating loss carryforwards to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
For the three months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022, the effective income tax rates were 24.5 % and 3.9 %, respectively. For the nine months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022, the effective income tax rates were 24.0 % and 2.6 %, respectively. The change in effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023 was primarily due to the change in forecasted mix of income before federal and state income taxes and estimated permanent differences. The lower effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2022 was primarily due to the recording of a valuation allowance needed for federal deferred tax assets and certain state net operating loss carryforwards.

Stock Incentive Plan
Under the Company's 2019 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”), the Company may grant an aggregate of up to 1.0 million shares to its employees and non-employee directors in the form of restricted stock units, restricted stock awards and stock options. Restricted stock units and awards granted under the 2019 Plan are expensed ratably over the vesting period of the awards. The Company determines the fair value of its restricted stock units or awards and related compensation expense as the difference between the market value of the units or awards on the date of grant less the exercise price of the units or awards granted. There were no awards grant and vested during the three-month period ended October 31, 2023. During the nine-month period ended October 31, 2023, the Company granted 70,510 awards, vested 93,600 shares according to their terms and forfeited 0 shares under the 2019 Plan.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations
Overview
The results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 31, 2023 and the comparable periods ended October 31, 2022 have been impacted by economic conditions driven by the COVID-19 pandemic and global supply chain disruptions. The impact of COVID-19 has been quite different during the current year compared to the prior years. Typically, the Company has an exceptionally seasonal annual cycle where approximately 50% of sales occur in the months of June, July and August. Orders received from customers follow a similar but less pronounced cycle. The Company typically receives orders for projects several months in advance of delivery, while smaller orders for fill in or replacements are typically received 4-6 weeks prior to delivery.
During the months of June, July, and August of 2021, the Company was severely impacted by shortages of labor and materials. The Company delivered less than 40% of annual shipments during the traditional summer season. During the months of June, July, and August of 2022 the Company substantially returned to the traditional seasonal cycle and delivered approximately 47% of sales. For the three months of June, July, and August 2023 the Company believes that there has been a full return to the traditional seasonal summer peak. The Company began the three-month period of June, July, and August of 2023 with a larger backlog of orders for summer delivery, nearly $20 million of increased inventory (as of April 30, 2023) and adequate availability of both full time and temporary labor to service the summer delivery season.
During the quarter ended April 30, 2023, the Company had experienced a 10.4% increase in orders compared to the same quarter in 2022, most of which were for summer of 2023 delivery. During the quarter ended July 31, 2023, the Company experienced a 3.3% increase in orders compared to the same quarter in 2022. During a seasonally light third quarter ended October 31, 2023 the Company experienced a 25.0% increase in orders compared to the same quarter in 2022. During the first nine months of fiscal 2023, the Company experienced a 10.3% increase in orders compared to the same period in 2022. In addition, the Company started the current fiscal year with an order backlog that was approximately $18 million greater than the prior year. This caused the Company’s backlog of unshipped orders when entering the traditional seasonal period at April 30, 2023 compared to April 30, 2022 to increase by nearly $19 million to $104.6 million compared to $85.7 million. The largest portion of this increased backlog was delivered during the second quarter ended July 31, 2023 with the balance delivered during the third quarter ended October 31, 2023.
The increase in sales for the third quarter ended October 31, 2023 was attributable to improved on time delivery of orders and increased order rates during the third quarter. The Company’s backlog of unshipped sales orders at October 31, 2023 declined by $2.3 million to $42.5 million compared to $44.8 million in the prior year.
Three Months Ended October 31, 2023
For the three months ended October 31, 2023, the Company earned pre-tax income of $13.5 million on sales of $84.2 million compared to a pre-tax income of $8.2 million on sales of $77.4 million in the prior year.
Net sales for the third quarter increased by approximately $6.9 million or 8.9%, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was attributable to an improvement in on-time deliveries during the traditional summer season and increased order rates during the third quarter.
Gross margin for the third quarter ended October 31, 2023 was 45.4% compared to 39.8% in the prior year. The increase in margin was attributable to the price increases, relatively stable commodity costs, and an increase in sales which include Virco full service. The increase in full-service orders improves gross margin, but does require increased freight and service costs, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2023 increased by approximately $1.5 million but was slightly lower as a percentage of sales compared to the same period last year. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was attributable in part to increased variable freight and service expense attributable to a larger portion of full-service orders, and increased variable selling expenses.
20
Interest expense increased by $0.2 million for the three months ended October 31, 2023 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the amount borrowed in 2023 to finance seasonal working capital and an increase in interest rates.
For the three months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022, the effective income tax rates were 24.5% and 3.9%, respectively. The lower effective tax rate in 2022 was due primarily to the recording of a valuation allowance needed for federal deferred tax assets and certain state net operating loss carryforwards, which commenced in the fourth quarter of fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 and continued through the period ended October 31, 2022. The increase in the effective tax rate for the third quarter ended October 31, 2023 was primarily due to the reversal of the valuation allowance at January 31, 2023.
Nine Months Ended October 31, 2023
For the nine months ended October 31, 2023 the Company earned a pre-tax profit of $31.9 million on sales of $226.5 million compared to a pre-tax profit of $12.8 million on sales of $192.3 million in the prior year. Net sales increased by approximately $34.2 million or 17.8%. The increase was attributable to an increase in beginning of year sales backlog, increased order rates, a price increase for orders received after January 1, 2023 and July 1, 2022, and by the Company’s ability to service the traditional seasonal cycle.
Gross margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 was 44.1% compared to 37.6% in the prior year. The margin was affected by price increases on July 1, 2022 and January 1, 2023, combined with relatively stable costs for raw materials and labor expenses, and an increase in business which included Virco full service.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended October 31, 2023 increased by $8.2 million compared to the same period last year but decreased as a percentage of sales. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was attributable to an increase in orders which include Virco full service, increased variable freight and service expenses, and variable selling expenses.
Interest expense increased by $0.9 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2023 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the amount borrowed in 2023 to finance seasonal working capital and an increase in interest rates.
For the nine months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022, the effective income tax rates were 24.0% and 2.6%, respectively. The lower effective tax rate in 2022 was due primarily to the recording of a valuation allowance needed for federal deferred tax assets and certain state net operating loss carryforwards which commenced in the fourth quarter of fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 and continued through the period ended October 31, 2022. The increase in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended October 31, 2023 was primarily due to the reversal of the valuation allowance at January 31, 2023.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The market for education furniture is extremely seasonal and approximately 50% of the Company's annual sales volume is shipped in the months of June through August of each year. The Company traditionally manufactures large quantities of inventory during the first and second quarters of each fiscal year in anticipation of seasonally high summer shipments. In addition, the Company finances a large balance of accounts receivable during the peak season. As discussed above, due to COVID-19, during fiscal 2021 and 2022 the Company incurred supply chain disruptions and labor shortages which adversely affected the Company’s ability to service the traditional summer delivery window. The Company believes that the Company’s ability to service the traditional seasonal sales cycle has returned and will continue through the remainder of this fiscal year.
Accounts receivable increased by $5.0 million at October 31, 2023 compared to the same period last year. The increase is attributable to increased sales in the quarter ended October 31, 2023.
Inventory increased by $1.5 million at October 31, 2023 compared to October 31, 2022. The increase is primarily attributable to increased cost, not increased quantity. The increase in inventory was financed by cash flow from operations. Traditional sources of financing, including borrowing under the Company’s line of credit with PNC Bank and vendor credit declined.
Accrual basis capital expenditures for the nine months ended October 31, 2023 were $4.1 million compared to $2.7 million for the same period last year. Capital expenditures are being financed through the Company's credit facility with PNC Bank and operating cash flow and restricted to not exceed $8 million per year by covenant.
21
The Company was in violation of its financial covenants under the Restated Credit Agreement as of January 31, 2022, due to an increase in the Company’s net loss primarily attributable to the effects of supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. On April 15, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Revolving Credit and Security Agreement with PNC Bank, which implemented certain changes to the Company’s credit facility with PNC Bank, including the extension of the final maturity date of the facility to April 15, 2027. On May 19, 2023, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 which increased the borrowing limit to $72.5 million during the peak seasonal period from June through August 2023. See Note 7. Debt of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Based on the Company’s current projections, raw material costs and its ability to introduce price increases, management believes it will maintain compliance with its financial covenants under the Credit Agreement, although risks and uncertainties remain, such as changes in economic conditions, changing raw material costs and supply chain challenges. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of October 31, 2023.
The Company believes that cash flows from operations, together with the Company's unused borrowing capacity with PNC Bank will be sufficient to fund the Company's debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital needs for the next twelve months.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
