Free Cash Flows Analysis Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2024 Compared to Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2023
Current report
Free cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $77,709 as compared to $23,765 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, an increase of $53,944 or 227.0%. The increase in free cash flow was primarily due to an increase in cash provided by operating activities and a decrease in capital expenditures. Please see the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below for further information.

Current report
Net Sales. Net sales were $581,604 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $588,425 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of $6,821, or 1.2%. This decrease was primarily due to softening demand within the second half of the current year in all our key end markets, customer de-stocking channel inventory and the foreseen roll-off of certain military aftermarket programs at the end of 2023. These items were partially offset by incremental volumes from new program wins and the acquisition of MSA in the third quarter of the prior year.
Current report
Manufacturing Margins. Manufacturing margins were $71,097 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $69,703 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, an increase of $1,394, or 2.0%. The increase was primarily driven by MBX initiatives, commercial pricing actions and cost reduction actions, most notably, a 12% reduction in the Company’s labor force which occurred in the third quarter of 2024.
Current report
Gain on Lawsuit Settlement. On October 28, 2024, the Company and a former fitness customer entered into a formal Settlement Agreement (the “Agreement”) resolving a previously disclosed lawsuit. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company and the former fitness customer agreed to dismiss the lawsuit and exchange mutual releases, and MEC received a gross payment of $25,500 from the former fitness customer in the fourth quarter of the current year. See Note 9 within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the lawsuit.
Current report
Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating activities was $89,807 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $40,363 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. Of the $49,444 increase in operating cash flows, $17,562 is due to a payout of deferred compensation to a retired Company executive made in the prior year period. The remaining increase of $31,882 was primarily due to the lawsuit settlement payment of $25,500 and changes in net working capital items. The primary increases associated with working capital changes include a decrease in accrued liabilities in the prior year as part of a 401(k) Plan amendment, the utilization of income tax net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards and a decrease in cash used for accounts payable due to the timing of supplier payments positively impacted cash provided by operating activities for the current year period.

Financing Activities. Cash used in financing activities was $78,561 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $64,314 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. The change was primarily due to the debt repayments in excess of borrowings during the current year period and the withdrawal of funds used to

Internal Controls and Procedures
Previous report
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for our company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of our assets are made in accordance with management’s authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected. Furthermore, our controls and procedures can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the control, and misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected on a timely basis.
Previous report
Net Sales. Net sales were $588,425 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $539,392 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $49,033, or 9.1%. This increase was primarily due to the acquisition of MSA, increased organic sales volumes within our commercial vehicle, powersports and military end markets and continued price discipline. These increases were slightly offset by softening demand in our construction and agriculture end markets, lower material price pass-throughs to customers and United Auto Workers labor union strikes impacting a few of our customers that occurred in the fourth quarter of the current period.
Previous report
Manufacturing Margins. Manufacturing margins were $69,703 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $61,069 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $8,634, or 14.1%. The increase was primarily driven by the above-mentioned organic volume growth, MSA acquisition and commercial price actions. These items were partially negated by unabsorbed fixed costs associated with new project launches, a one-time field replacement claim, higher employee healthcare expenses, the non-recurring inventory step-up expense associated with the MSA acquisition and restructuring costs related to the former COO.
Previous report
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Gain on Contracts. At December 31, 2021, there was uncertainty as to the level of demand from the former fitness customer. The Company received a notification from this customer in February 2022 resulting in a change in forecasted future cash flow, triggering an impairment assessment of assets purchased, and assets the Company committed to purchase, to meet obligations under the agreement with the former fitness customer as of December 31, 2021. The notification informed the Company that it did not forecast any demand for any products or parts that were the subject of the agreement between the Company and the customer for the remainder of the agreement’s term, which ends in March 2026. Given the circumstances, GAAP required the Company to assess whether the assets were impaired. As a result of this assessment, the Company recorded an impairment on the assets purchased and loss on contracts agreed upon specifically to meet obligations under the agreement with the former fitness customer. Consequently, the Company recorded an impairment of long-lived assets and loss on contracts of $16,151 in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Previous report
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, the Company was able to cancel $2,257 of purchase commitments for property, plant and equipment that had been recorded as an impairment of long-lived assets and loss on contracts at December 31, 2021, as previously described. The cancellation of purchase commitments resulted in the reversal of previously recorded impairment expense. Additionally, the Company was able to sell property, plant and equipment resulting in a gain of $2,089 that had previously been recorded as an impairment of long-lived assets and written down to fair value at December 31, 2021. There was no further gain on contracts attributable to the impairment recorded in 2021 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.
Previous report
Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating activities was $40,363 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $52,426 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. Of the $12,063 decrease in operating cash flows, $17,562 was due to a payout of deferred compensation to a retired Company executive. The remaining difference of an increase in cash provided by operating activities of $5,499 as compared to the prior year period is largely driven by accounts receivable and inventory decreasing due to the Company’s ongoing collections efforts and initiatives to implement lean inventory management processes, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable resulting from reduced capital expenditures. Additionally, cash provided by operating activities were negatively impacted by a reduction in accrued liabilities due to the Company implementing a match program in the 401(k) Plan requiring the employer contribution to be paid concurrently with payroll. In the prior year period, a discretionary employer contribution was accrued throughout the year and paid after the year ended December 31, 2022.

Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities was $104,132 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $50,668 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The $53,464 increase in cash used in investing activities was mainly due to the acquisition of MSA, which was completed on July 1, 2023, partially offset by less capital investments in the current year period due to the completion of the capital investment in the Company’s Hazel Park, MI facility at the end of 2022.
Current wording
Free cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $23,765 as compared to ($6,184) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $29,949. The increase in free cash flow was primarily due to less capital investments in 2023 due to the completion of the capital investment in the Company’s Hazel Park, MI facility at the end of 2022, partially offset by a decrease in operating activities, mainly due to a payout of deferred compensation to a retired Company executive in 2023.

Refer to Note 2 – Acquisitions within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to these identifiable intangible assets.
Current wording
Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets were $6,933 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $7,742 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of $809, or 10.4%.

Previous wording
Profit Sharing, Bonuses and Deferred Compensation Expenses. Profit sharing, bonuses and deferred compensation expenses were $11,588 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $7,997 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $3,591, or 44.9%. The increase was primarily due to deferred compensation expense during the current year period versus a credit during the prior year period due to fluctuations within the financial markets, the Company’s contributions to the 401(k) match being higher than the prior year period discretionary 401(k) accrual and less stock-based compensation expense in the prior year period due to increased forfeitures of unvested awards, slightly offset by lower bonus expense.
Current wording

The increase was predominantly attributable to the incremental SG&A and transactions costs related to the acquisition of MSA, increased salaries, wages and benefits, recruiting fees and higher professional fees related to the Company preparing to be Sarbanes-Oxley Act Section 404(b) compliant for 2024 and higher legal fees associated with the on-going litigation with our former fitness customer, partially offset by CEO transition costs incurred during the prior year period.

Under our share repurchase program, the Company purchased $2,661 of common stock in 2023 as compared to $4,947 of its common stock in 2022.

We have historically relied upon cash available through credit facilities, in addition to cash from operations, to finance our working capital requirements and to support our growth. At December 31, 2023, we had immediate availability of $102,507 through our revolving credit facility and the availability of incremental facilities to the greater of $100,000 and 125% of the Company’s twelve month trailing Consolidated EBITDA through an accordion feature under our Credit Agreement, subject to the covenants under the Credit Agreement. We regularly monitor potential capital sources, including equity and debt financings, in an effort to meet our planned capital expenditures and liquidity requirements. Our future success will be highly dependent on our ability to access outside sources of capital. We will continue to have access to the availability currently provided under the Credit Agreement as long as we remain compliant with the financial covenants. Based on our estimates at this time, we expect to be in compliance with these financial covenants through 2024 and the foreseeable future.

We believe that our operating cash flow and available borrowings under the Credit Agreement are sufficient to fund our operations for 2024 and beyond. However, future cash flows are subject to a number of variables, and additional capital expenditures will be required to conduct our operations.
