1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

A. Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of SIFCO Industries, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In October 2024, the Company sold its European operations in order to streamline operational synergies and refocus on its core aerospace forging business. SIFCO Irish Holdings, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) pursuant to which it sold 100% of the share capital of C Blade S.p.A. Forging & Manufacturing, an Italian joint stock company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“CBlade”), for cash consideration.

As a result of the sale transaction, the Company’s financial statements have been prepared with the net assets, results of operations, and cash flows of CBlade presented as discontinued operations. All historical statements, amounts and related disclosures have been retrospectively adjusted to conform to this presentation. Refer to Note 2 —Discontinued Operations.

The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for all of the Company’s operations in the United States (“U.S.”) and its non-operating, non-U.S. subsidiaries. For these operations, all gains and losses from completed currency transactions are included in income (loss). Prior to the sale of CBlade, the functional currency for the Company’s other non-U.S. subsidiaries was the Euro; the Company no longer has active operations in Europe. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange at the end of the period, and revenues and expenses are translated using average rates of exchange for the period which approximate the rates in effect at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency translation adjustments are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements.

These unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Report”). The year-end consolidated condensed balance sheet contained in these financial statements was derived from the audited financial statements and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for other interim periods or the full year.

B. Accounting Policies

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

C. Net Loss per Share

The Company’s net loss per basic share has been computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. During a period of net loss, zero restricted and performance shares are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive. In a period of net income, the net income per diluted share reflects the effect of the Company’s outstanding restricted shares and performance shares under the treasury stock method. The dilutive effect is as follows:

D. Recent Accounting Standards Adopted

None applicable.

E. Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior-period amounts to conform to current-period reporting classifications. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company revised its classification within the consolidated condensed statements of cash flows by moving the prior period amount for contract liabilities from accrued liabilities to contract liabilities to conform to current period presentation.

2. Discontinued Operations

The Company committed to the plan to sell CBlade in August 2024 in order to streamline operational synergies and refocus on its core aerospace forging entities. On August 1, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved and authorized the execution of a share purchase agreement (the “SPA”), under which SIFCO Irish Holdings, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the share capital of CBlade to TB2 S.r.l. (the “Buyer”) at an enterprise value of €20,000, less debt, for cash consideration of €13,800 in net equity value at closing, subject to adjustments for changes in working capital and certain other items (the “CBlade Sale”). The Company determined that CBlade met the criteria for classification as assets held for sale and discontinued operations upon the aforementioned events, and, based on the significance of the disposed operations (i.e., strategic shift), CBlade represented discontinued operations upon classification of the CBlade assets and liabilities as held for sale.

In October 2024, upon regulatory approval, the Company completed the sale of CBlade and received cash consideration of approximately $14,586, net of transaction costs of $352. The Company does not expect to have any significant continuing involvement with CBlade after the sale. All operating activities prior to the disposal date were included in the Company's financial statements separately as discontinued operations, including income before income tax provision, gain from the sale CBlade (i.e., cash proceeds received less net assets transferred), and the release of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) attributable to the Company's European operations.

Due to the CBlade Sale, the Company ceased manufacturing operations within the European market, as CBlade represented the last remaining facility in this region. Prior to the transaction, CBlade was directly owned by SIFCO Irish Holdings Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated in Ireland (“Irish Holdings”), which historically acted as the holding company for the Company's international operations. With the disposal of CBlade, the Company determined that its European operations represented a substantially complete liquidation. Therefore, $5,851 of cumulative translation adjustment loss attributable to these operations (related to Irish Holdings) was recognized in the statement of operations as a component of the gain on sale of discontinued operations upon the loss of a controlling financial interest in CBlade, which represented in excess of 90% of the assets of the Company's European operations.

The principal components of the assets and liabilities related to discontinued operations classified as held for sale as of September 30, 2024 were as follows:

A summary of the operating results for the discontinued operations is as follows:

3. Inventories

Inventories consist of:

For a portion of the Company’s inventory, cost is determined using the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method. Approximately 37% and 30% of the Company’s inventories as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively, use the LIFO method. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made at the end of each fiscal year based on the inventory levels and costs existing at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must be based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Because the actual results may vary from these estimates, the annual results may differ from interim results as they are subject to adjustments based on the differences between the estimates and the actual results. The first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method is used for the remainder of the inventories, which are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value (“NRV”). If the FIFO method had been used for the inventories for which cost is determined using the LIFO method, inventories would have been $10,997 and $10,496 higher than reported as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The Company estimates net realizable value, excess and obsolescence and shrink reserves for its inventory based upon historical experience, historical and projected sales trends and the age of inventory on hand. As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, our inventory valuation allowances were $3,054 and $2,733, respectively.

4. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss are as follows:

During the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company reclassified $5,554 from foreign currency translation adjustment to income from discontinued operations in the consolidated condensed statements of operations concurrent with the disposition of the CBlade and the substantially complete liquidation of operations in Europe.

5. Leases

The components of lease expense were as follows:

The following table presents the impact of leasing on the consolidated condensed balance sheet.

Supplemental cash flow and other information related to leases were as follows:

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable leases as of December 31, 2024 were as follows:

6. Debt

Debt consists of:

Loan and Security Agreement

On October 17, 2024, Company and Quality Aluminum Forge, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“QAF”, and together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) among the Company and QAF, as borrowers, Siena Lending Group LLC, as Lender (“Siena”), and each of the affiliates of the borrowers signatory to the Loan Agreement from time to time as guarantors.

The Loan Agreement provided for a senior secured revolving credit facility with a term ofthree years in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $20,000 (the “Revolver”) and a term loan in the original principal amount of $3,000 (the “Term Loan”). The Loan Agreement also provided for a $2,500 letter of credit sub-facility (the “Letter of Credit Sub-facility,” and collectively with the Revolver and the Term Loan, the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility matures on October 17, 2027.

Proceeds of borrowings under the Credit Facility were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Company’s Credit Agreement, Security Agreement, and Export Credit Agreement dated August 8, 2018, as amended, and was also available for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes. These amounts included accrued paid-in-kind interest of $387 and fees under the guaranty agreement and subordinated promissory note with Garnet Holdings, Inc., a California corporation owned and controlled by Mark J. Silk (“GHI”) (Mr. Silk is a member of the Board of Directors of the Company and considered a related party) of $1,030.

Borrowings under the Revolver and the Letter of Credit Sub-facility will bear interest at an annual rate of 4.5% plus the adjusted term SOFR (or, if the base rate is applicable, an annual rate of 3.5% plus the base rate). Borrowings under the Term Loan will bear interest at an annual rate of 5.5% plus the adjusted term SOFR (or, if the base rate is applicable,4.5% plus the base rate) and shall be repaid in equal consecutive monthly installments of $50 commencing November 1, 2024, with the entire unpaid balance due and payable on the maturity date. Letters of credit issued under the Letter of Credit Sub-facility will have a fee equal to 4.5% plus adjusted term SOFR per annum of the face amount of such letter of credit. The Letter of Credit Sub-facility requires the Company to maintain compensating balances in a money market account in support of any issuances. The Company may withdraw funds from this account at its discretion; however, availability under the Letter of Credit Sub-facility will be dependent upon the maintenance of such compensating balances. As of December 31, 2024, the Company held $1,559 in compensating balances, which were included in cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated condensed balance sheets.

In consideration of the execution and delivery by Siena of the Loan Agreement, the Company agreed pursuant to the fee letter to pay a closing fee in the amount of $230 (of which $115 was paid on the closing date and $115 is payable on the first anniversary of the closing date, with the remaining amount (if any) of the closing fee to be paid in full on the maturity date). The fee letter provides for a collateral monitoring fee in the amount of $126, which fee shall be paid in installments as follows: (a) equal payments of approximately $4 shall be payable on the closing date and on the first day of each month thereafter and (b) the remaining amount of such fee (if any) shall be paid in full on the maturity date. In addition, an unused line fee accrues with respect to the unused amount of the Revolver at an annual rate of 0.5%. All fees that are payable in future installments or in full at maturity were recognized within accrued liabilities in the consolidated condensed balance sheets as of December 31, 2024.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by (a) a continuing first priority lien on and security interest in and to substantially all of the assets of the Company and other loan parties identified therein; and (b) a continuing first priority pledge of the pledged equity. The obligations of the Borrowers are guaranteed by each guarantor on the terms set forth in the Loan Agreement.

The Loan Agreement provides that the Company must maintain compliance with a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, determined in accordance with the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement also contains affirmative, negative and financial covenants customary for financings of this type, including, among other things, limitations on certain other indebtedness, loans and investment, liens, mergers, asset sales, and transactions with affiliates, as well as customary events of default for financings of this type. Additionally, the Loan Agreement contains provisions for a lockbox arrangement and a subjective acceleration clause related to the appraised value of collateralized property, plant, and equipment; hence, the Term Loan and the Revolver were each classified as current maturities of long-term debt in the consolidated condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2024.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Agreement. As of December 31, 2024, total availability under the Revolver was $3,859, andno letters of credit were outstanding.

As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, the Company had effective interest rates of 9.6% and 8.1%, respectively, under its revolving credit agreements.

Debt issuance costs

As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, the Company had debt issuance costs related to its outstanding revolving credit agreements of $556 and $461, respectively, which are included in the consolidated condensed balance sheets as a deferred charge in other current assets, net of amortization of $31 andnil, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had debt issuance costs related to the Term Loan of $83, which are included net of debt in the consolidated condensed balance sheets, net of amortization of $6.

First Energy

In April 2019, the Company entered into an economic development loan in the amount of $864 with FirstEnergy Corporation (“FirstEnergy”) through its Ohio Electric Security Plan (“ESP”) in effect at that time (the “ED Loan”). The ED Loan matures infive years and requires quarterly payments at an interest rate ofzero percent per annum for the first twenty-four months and 2.0% per annum for the remainder of the term. Any unpaid balance after the initial term will convert to the U.S. Prime Rate plus 1.0%. As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, the Company had outstanding balances under the ED Loan of $140 and $133, respectively.

Beginning on October 1, 2019, FirstEnergy invoiced the Company on a quarterly basis and payments were made accordingly. However, in light of recent difficulties experienced by FirstEnergy, the Company has not received invoices (or other requests for payment) since its October 2023 payment, and all attempts at correspondence with FirstEnergy have gone unanswered. Due to the lack of communication with the lender, the Company has been unable to make the remaining three installment payments and consider the outstanding balance a potential contingent cash payment under the ED Loan until a formal letter of forgiveness or other determination is received. The Company will continue efforts to resolve this obligation in the near future. While we expect to meet the standards for full forgiveness of the ED Loan, there is no assurance that we will be granted such forgiveness.

City of Cleveland

In May 2019, the Company entered into a vacant property initiative loan agreement with the City of Cleveland in the amount of $180 at an annual interest rate of 3.6% to construct a die storage building near our Cleveland, OH facility (the “VPI Loan”). The VPI Loan matures infive years with a final balloon payment of all outstanding principal and interest and is forgivable in full contingent upon the Company creating a minimum number of new jobs and maintaining minimum employment levels during the term of the loan. As of both December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, the Company had amounts outstanding under the VPI Loan of $220.

Due to the effects of the worldwide pandemic, the Company experienced declines in demand for its products and sales, which hindered the Company's ability to grow its workforce and maintain it at or above the required levels. The Company is currently in discussions with the City of Cleveland for forgiveness of the VPI Loan under extenuating circumstances beyond the Company's control. Until a final determination is made by the City of Cleveland, the Company has not made payments on the VPI Loan, which may become payable in full if forgiveness is not approved. The Company will continue efforts to resolve this obligation in the near future. While we expect to meet the standards for full forgiveness of the VPI Loan, there is no assurance that we will be granted such forgiveness.

7. Income Taxes

For each interim reporting period, the Company makes an estimate of the effective tax rate it expects to be applicable for the full fiscal year for its operations. This estimated effective rate is used in providing for income taxes on a year-to-date basis. The Company’s effective tax rate through the first three months of fiscal 2025 was (0.21)%, compared with (0.15)% for the same period of fiscal 2024. The decrease in the effective rate was primarily attributable to changes in jurisdictional mix of income in fiscal 2025 compared with the same period of fiscal 2024. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to the valuation allowance against the Company’s U.S. deferred tax assets and income in foreign jurisdictions that are taxed at different rates than the U.S. statutory tax rate.

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, Ireland, and various state and local jurisdictions.

8. Retirement Benefit Plans

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries sponsor defined benefit pension plans covering some of its employees. The components of the net periodic benefit cost of the Company’s defined benefit plans are as follows:

During the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company made $42 and $9 in cash contributions, andzero and $86 in non-cash contributions utilizing carryover balance, respectively, to its defined benefit pension plans. The Company anticipates making $240 in cash contributions to fund its defined benefit pension plans for the balance of fiscal 2025, and will use carryover balances from previous periods that have been available for use as a credit to reduce the amount of cash contributions that the Company is required to make to certain defined benefit plans in fiscal 2025. The Company’s ability to elect to use such carryover balance will be determined based on the actual funded status of each defined benefit pension plan relative to the plan’s minimum regulatory funding requirements. The Company does not anticipate making cash contributions above the minimum funding requirement to fund its defined benefit pension plans during the balance of fiscal 2025.

9. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has outstanding equity awards under the Company’s 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) and the Company’s 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (Amended and Restated as of November 16, 2016) (as further amended, the “2016 Plan”), and awards performance and restricted shares under the 2016 Plan.

In the first three months of fiscal 2025, the Company granted 10 time-based restricted shares under the 2016 Plan to certain key employees with a grant date fair value of $4.14 per share. The awards vest over three years. There were 30 shares forfeited during the three months ended December 31, 2024. No performance-based shares were granted during the three months ended December 31, 2024

If all outstanding share awards are ultimately earned and vest at the target number of shares, there are approximately 405 shares that remain available for award as of December 31, 2024. If any of the outstanding share awards are ultimately earned and vest at greater than the target number of shares, up to a maximum of 150% of such target, then a fewer number of shares would be available for award.

Stock-based compensation expense under the 2016 Plan was $21 and $86 during the first three months of fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively, within selling, general and administrative expense on the consolidated condensed statements of operations. As of December 31, 2024, there was $172 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the performance shares and restricted shares awarded under the 2016 Plan. The Company expects to recognize this cost over the next 1.2 years.

10. Revenue

The Company produces forged components for (i) turbine engines that power commercial, business and regional aircraft as well as military aircraft and other military applications; (ii) airframe applications for a variety of aircraft; (iii) industrial gas and steam turbine engines for power generation units; and (iv) commercial space, semiconductor and other commercial applications.

Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of the contract with a customer of the Company are satisfied. A portion of the Company’s contracts are from purchase orders (“PO’s”), which continue to be recognized as of a point in time when products are shipped from the Company’s manufacturing facilities or at a later time when control of the products transfers to the customer. Under the revenue standard, the Company recognizes certain revenue over time as it satisfies the performance obligations because the conditions of transfer of control to the applicable customer are as follows:

•Certain military contracts, which relate to the provisions of specialized or unique goods to the U.S. government with no alternative use, include provisions within the contract that are subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”). The FAR provision allows the customer to unilaterally terminate the contract for convenience and requires the customer to pay the Company for costs incurred plus reasonable profit margin and take control of any work in process.

•For certain commercial contracts involving customer-specific products with no alternative use, the contract may fall under the FAR clause provisions noted above for military contracts or may include certain provisions within their contract that the customer controls the work in process based on contractual termination clauses or restrictions of the Company’s use of the product and the Company possesses a right to payment for work performed to date plus reasonable profit margin.

As a result of control transferring over time for these products, revenue is recognized based on progress toward completion of the performance obligation. The selection of the method to measure progress towards completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products to be provided. The Company elected to use the cost to cost input method of progress based on costs incurred for these contracts because it best depicts the transfer of goods to the customer based on incurring costs on the contracts. Under this method, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenues are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred.

The following table represents a breakout of total revenue by customer type:

The following table represents revenue by end market:

All revenue based on selling locations originated from the Company’s U.S. operations.

In addition to the disaggregated revenue information provided above, approximately 53% and 57% of total net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, was recognized on an over-time basis because of the continuous transfer of control to the customer, with the remainder recognized at a point in time.

Contract Balances

The following table contains a roll forward of contract assets and contract liabilities for the periods presented:

Accounts receivable were $15,638 and $12,421 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023, respectively. There wereno material impairment losses recorded on contract assets as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024.

Remaining performance obligations

As of December 31, 2024, the Company has $121,900 of remaining performance obligations (including contract assets), the majority of which are anticipated to be completed within the next twelve months.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company may be involved in ordinary, routine legal actions. The Company cannot reasonably estimate future costs, if any, related to these matters; however, it does not believe any such matters are material to its financial condition or results of operations. The Company maintains various liability insurance coverages to protect its assets from losses arising out of or involving activities associated with ongoing and normal business operations; however, it is possible that the Company’s future operating results could be affected by future costs of litigation.

12. Related Party Transactions

In October 2024, the Company repaid all amounts outstanding under its secured subordinated loan from Garnet Holdings, Inc., a California corporation owned and controlled by Mark J. Silk (“GHI”) (Mr. Silk is a member of the Board of Directors of the Company and considered a related party), in the original principal amount of $3,000, as well as accrued paid-in-kind interest. As part of the guaranty and subordinated promissory note with GHI, the Company paid fees of $880 and $150, respectively. See Note 6 — Debt for further information.
