Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm – Financial Statements

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Omega Flex, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Omega Flex, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013, and our report dated March 11, 2024, expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Product liability claims

As described in Notes 2 and 7 of the financial statements, the Company is subject to periodic lawsuits, investigations and claims, primarily relating to potential lightning damage to its flexible gas piping products (the “Claims”). The Company accrues an estimated product liability reserve related to the resolution cost of the Claims for which management believes a loss is probable of occurring, and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable and also discloses the aggregate maximum exposure for all open Claims. As of December 31, 2023, the Company accrued a product liability reserve of $947,000 and disclosed that the aggregate maximum exposure for all current open Claims is estimated not to exceed $3,724,000. Due to the uncertainty of potential costs to be incurred related to the Claims, and the uncertainty of the ultimate outcome of each of the individual Claims, management applies significant judgments and estimates in determining the probability that a loss has been incurred and the amount to accrue for such loss.

We identified the accrual and disclosure of the Claims as a critical audit matter due to the significant judgments made by management when assessing the probability of a loss as well as the ultimate resolution costs of the Claims. Auditing management’s estimates and assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment and increased audit effort due to the impact these assumptions have on the accrued product liability reserves and disclosures.

Our audit procedures related to the Claims included the following, among others:

●We obtained an understanding of the relevant controls related to management’s evaluation of the Claims for accrual and disclosure and tested such controls for design and operating effectiveness, including controls around management’s evaluation of the probability that a loss has been incurred and management’s estimate of the amount of the loss.
●We tested the accuracy and completeness of the underlying data that served as the basis for management’s estimates of the probability that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss, including payment activity, relevant insurance coverage, lawsuit or claim status, and any settlement activity.
●We evaluated the methods and assumptions used by management to develop the estimate of the probability a loss has been incurred on individual product liability claims and the amount of such loss through consideration of historical claim and loss experience as well as current claim status.
●We performed confirmation procedures with the Company’s external legal counsel to corroborate management’s assertions regarding claim information, claim status, the probability the Company has incurred a loss, and the estimated amount of any potential loss. These confirmation procedures were also used to test the completeness and accuracy of the underlying source data that served as the basis of management’s estimates.
●We tested claim and settlement payment activity occurring subsequent to year-end to assess the reasonableness of management’s estimates and disclosures.
