Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)Basis of Presentation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of UFP Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) presented herein, have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim periods. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 has been derived from the Company’s annual financial statements that were audited by an independent registered public accounting firm but does not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete annual financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There are no newly issued accounting pronouncements that the Company expects to have a material effect on the financial statements.

(2)Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when a customer obtains control of a promised good or service. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for promised goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the core principles of ASC 606 which include (1) identifying the contract with a customer, (2) identifying separate performance obligations within the contract, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue. The Company recognizes all but an immaterial portion of its product sales upon shipment. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of tooling and machinery primarily upon customer acceptance. The Company recognizes revenue from engineering services, which are primarily product development services, as the services are performed or as otherwise determined based on the substance of the agreement. The Company recognizes revenue from bill-and-hold transactions at the time the specified goods are complete and available to the customer.

Standard payment terms are net 30 days unless contract terms state otherwise. When determining the transaction price of a contract, an adjustment is made if payment from a customer occurs either significantly before or significantly after performance, resulting in a significant financing component. We do not assess whether a significant financing component exists if the period between when we perform our obligations under the contract and when the customer pays is one year or less. In the ordinary course of business, the Company accepts sales returns from customers for defective goods, such amounts being immaterial. Although only applicable to an insignificant number of transactions, the Company has elected to exclude sales taxes from the transaction price. The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling activities for which the Company is responsible under the terms and conditions of the sale not as performance obligations but rather as fulfillment costs. These activities are required to fulfill the Company’s promise to transfer the goods and are expensed when revenue is recognized. Variable consideration to be included in the transaction price is estimated using either the expected value method or the most likely method based on facts and circumstances. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. The Company has elected to not disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations, as the Company’s contracts have an original expected duration of one year or less, or revenue has been recognized at the amount for which the Company has the right to invoice for engineering services performed.

Disaggregated Revenue

The following table presents the Company’s revenue disaggregated by the major types of goods and services sold to the Company’s customers (in thousands) (See Note 11 for further information regarding net sales by market):

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the time of invoicing to customers. When invoicing occurs prior to revenue recognition, the Company has contract liabilities included within “deferred revenue” on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The following table presents opening and closing balances of contract liabilities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

Contract Liabilities
Three Months Ended March 31,
20242023
Deferred revenue - beginning of period$6,616$4,679
Increases due to consideration received from customers754999
Revenue recognized(2,843)(2,096)
Deferred revenue - end of period$4,527$3,582

Revenue recognized during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 from amounts included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period were approximately $2.7 million and $1.9 million, respectively.

When invoicing occurs after revenue recognition, the Company has contract assets, included within “receivables, net” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table presents opening and closing balances of contract assets for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

(4)Receivables and Allowance for Credit Losses

Receivables consist of the following (in thousands):

March 31,December 31,
20242023
Accounts receivable–trade$61,910$65,176
Less allowance for credit losses(660)(727)
Receivables, net$61,250$64,449

The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of products and services. The Company’s expected loss allowance methodology for accounts receivable is developed using historical collection experience, current and future economic and market conditions, and a review of the current status of customers' trade accounts receivables. Due to the short-term nature of such receivables, the estimate of the amount of accounts receivable that may not be collected is based on the aging of the accounts receivable balances and the financial condition of customers. Additionally, specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. The Company’s monitoring activities include timely account reconciliation, dispute resolution, payment confirmation, consideration of customers' financial condition and macroeconomic conditions. Balances are written-off when determined to be uncollectible. Estimates based on an assessment of anticipated payment and all other historical, current, and future information that is reasonably available are used to determine the allowance.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses that is deducted from accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

(5)Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets, or disclosed at fair value in the footnotes, are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, and directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, are as follows:

Level 1

Valued based on unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. An active market for the asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2

Valued based on either directly or indirectly observable prices for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.

Level 3

Valued based on management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

The following table presents the fair value and hierarchy levels, for financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

March 31, 2024December 31, 2023
Purchase price contingent consideration:
Accrued contingent consideration (earn-out)$13,334$13,096
Present value of non-competition payments6,4848,474

In connection with the acquisition of DAS Medical in 2021, the Company is required to make contingent payments, subject to the entities achieving certain financial performance thresholds. The contingent consideration payments for the DAS Medical acquisition are up to $20 million. The fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration payments recognized upon the acquisition as part of the purchase accounting opening balance sheets totaled approximately $9.7 million and was estimated by discounting to present value the probability-weighted contingent payments expected to be made. Assumptions used in the initial calculation were management’s financial forecasts, discount rate and various volatility factors. The ultimate settlement of contingent consideration could deviate from current estimates based on the actual results of these financial measures. This liability is considered to be a Level 3 financial liability that is re-measured each reporting period. The fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration payments recognized at March 31, 2024 totaled approximately $13.3 million out of the remaining potential payments of $15 million. The change in fair value of contingent consideration for the acquisition is included in change in fair value of contingent consideration in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Also in connection with the DAS Medical and Advant Medical acquisitions, the Company has entered into Non-Competition Agreements with the beneficiaries (certain previous owners of DAS and Advant) and the Company has agreed to pay additional consideration to the parties to the Non-Competition Agreements, including an aggregate of $10.0 million in payments over theten years following the closing of the DAS Medical acquisition for the 10-year noncompetition covenants of certain key owners. The Company paid approximately $1.7 million during the first quarter of 2024. The present value of the Non-Competition Agreements at March 31, 2024 totaled approximately $6.5 million. This liability is considered to be a Level 3 financial liability that is re-measured each reporting period.

The Company has financial instruments, such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, which are stated at carrying amounts that approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term debt approximates fair value as the interest rate on the debt approximates the estimated borrowing rate currently available to the Company.

(6)Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).

The Company issues share-based awards through several plans that are described in detail in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. The compensation cost charged against income for those plans is included in selling, general & administrative expenses as follows (in thousands):

Three Months Ended

Common stock grants$100$100
Stock option grants11394
Restricted Stock Unit Awards ("RSUs")1,300862
Total share-based compensation$1,513$1,056

The total income tax benefit recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for share-based compensa‐tion arrangements was approximately $1.1 million and $839 thousand for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Common Stock Grants

The compensation expense for common stock granted during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, was determined based on the market price of the shares on the date of grant.

Stock Option Grants

The following is a summary of stock option activity under all plans for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024:

Shares Under OptionsWeighted Average Exercise Price (per share)Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (in years)Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)

Vested and expected to vest at March 31, 202474,008$58.445.34$14,340

During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the total intrinsic value of all options exercised (i.e., the difference between the market price and the price paid by the employees to exercise the options) was approximately $652 thousand and $371 thousand, respectively, and the total amount of consideration received by the Company from the exercised options was approximately $160 thousand and $109, respectively. At its discretion, the Company allows option holders to surrender previously owned common stock in lieu of paying the exercise price and withholding taxes. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024,653 shares were surrendered at an average market price of $162.93. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2023,861 shares were surrendered at an average market price of $127.05.

Restricted Stock Unit awards

The following table summarizes information about RSU activity during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024:

Shares forfeited(131)171.40
Outstanding at March 31, 202482,102$85.47

At the Company’s discretion, upon vesting, RSU holders are given the option to net-share settle to cover the required minimum withholding tax and the remaining amount is converted into the equivalent number of common shares and issued to the RSU holder. During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023,21,914 and 20,457 shares were surrendered at an average market price of $216.80 and $117.95, respectively.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $10.0 million of unrecognized compensation expense that is expected to be recognized over a period of 3 years.

(9)Leases

The Company has operating and finance leases for offices, manufacturing plants, vehicles and certain office and manufacturing equipment. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company accounts for each separate lease component of a contract and its associated non-lease components as a single lease component, thus causing all fixed payments to be capitalized. Variable lease payment amounts that cannot be determined at the commencement of the lease such as increases in lease payments based on changes in index rates or usage, are not included in the right of use (“ROU”) assets or lease liabilities. These are expensed as incurred and recorded as variable lease expense. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at the inception of a contract. Operating and finance lease ROU assets and operating and finance lease liabilities are stated separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments pursuant to the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the net present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. The Company's assumed lease term includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option. ROU assets are also adjusted for any deferred or accrued rent. As the Company's leases do not typically provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

ROU assets and lease liabilities consist of the following (in thousands):

(10)Income Per Share

Basic income per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalent shares outstanding during each period.

The weighted average number of shares used to compute basic and diluted net income per share consisted of the following (in thousands):

Three Months Ended
March 31,
20242023
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding7,6517,592
Weighted average common equivalent shares due to restricted stock, stock options and RSUs8689
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding7,7377,681

The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the effect of the potential exercise of stock awards, including stock options, when the average market price of the common stock is lower than the exercise price of the related options during the period. These outstanding stock awards are not included in the computation of diluted income per share because the effect would be antidilutive. For both the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no stock awards excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for this reason.

(15)Debt

On December 22, 2021, the Company, as the borrower, entered into a secured $130 million Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) with certain of the Company’s subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and Bank of America, N.A., in its capacity as the initial lender, Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and L/C Issuer, and certain other lenders from time-to-time party thereto. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s prior credit agreement, originally dated as of February 1, 2018.

The credit facilities under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement consist of a $40 million secured term loan to the Company and a secured revolving credit facility, under which the Company may borrow up to $90 million. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement matures on December 21, 2026. The secured term loan requires quarterly principal payments of $1 million that commenced on March 31, 2022. The proceeds of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes, including funding the acquisition of DAS Medical, as well as certain other permitted acquisitions. The Company’s obligations under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Subsidiary Guarantors and secured by substantially all assets of the Company.

The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement calls for interest determined by the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index rate (“BSBY”) plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 2.0% or, at the discretion of the Company, the bank’s prime rate less a margin that ranges from 0.25% to zero. In both cases the applicable margin is dependent upon Company performance. Under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to a minimum fixed-charge coverage financial covenant as well as a maximum total funded debt to EBITDA financial covenant. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains other covenants customary for transactions of this type, including restrictions on certain payments, permitted indebtedness, and permitted investments.

At March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $34 million in borrowings outstanding under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which were used as partial consideration for the DAS Medical and Advant acquisitions, and also had approximately $0.7 million in standby letters of credit outstanding, drawable as a financial guarantee on worker’s compensation insurance policies. At March 31, 2024, the applicable interest rate was approximately 6.6% and the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
