B. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to the Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations; however, in the opinion of management the financial information reflects all adjustments, consisting of adjustments of a normal recurring nature, necessary for fair presentation. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 which are contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 15, 2019. The results for the second quarter and six months ended December 27, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Effective July 1, 2019, the Company's fiscal year has changed to the 52-week or 53-week period ending on the Friday closest to the last day in June. All references to the second quarter of fiscal 2020 are to the quarter ending December 27, 2019. There were 13-weeks during the second quarters ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. There were approximately 26-weeks during the six months ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. There have been no reclassifications of prior comparable periods due to this change.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
The Company utilizes the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805, Business Combinations, (“ASC 805”), for all transactions and events which it obtains control over one or more other businesses, to recognize the fair value of all assets
and liabilities acquired, even if less than one hundred percent ownership is acquired, and in establishing the acquisition date fair value as the measurement date for all assets and liabilities assumed. The Company also utilizes ASC 805 for the initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations.
FOREIGN CURRENCY
Local currencies are the functional currency for the Company’s subsidiaries in Switzerland, the United Kingdom, France, Japan, Spain and Canada. The accounts of foreign subsidiaries are translated using exchange rates in effect at period-end for assets and liabilities and at average exchange rates during the period for results of operations. The related translation adjustments are reported in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (“AOCI”) in shareholders’ equity. Gains (losses) resulting from non-U.S. currency transactions are included in other expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income and were immaterial for all periods presented.
LEASES
Effective July 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”), which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability for most lease arrangements. The Company has adopted ASC 842 using the optional transition method and, as a result, there have been no reclassifications of prior comparable periods due to this adoption.
The Company has arrangements involving the lease of facilities, machinery and equipment. Under ASC 842, at inception of the arrangement, the Company determines whether the contract is or contains a lease and whether the lease should be classified as an operating or a financing lease. This determination, among other considerations, involves an assessment of whether the Company can control the underlying asset and have the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits or outputs from the asset.
The Company recognizes ROU assets and lease liabilities as of the lease commencement date based on the net present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. ASC 842 requires lessees to use the rate implicit in the lease unless it is not readily determinable and then it may use its incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) to discount the future minimum lease payments. Most of the Company's lease arrangements do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, the Company uses its IBR to discount the future minimum lease payments. The Company determines its IBR with its credit rating and current economic information available as of the commencement date, as well as the identified lease term. During the assessment of the lease term, the Company considers its renewal options and extensions within the arrangements and the Company includes these options when it is reasonably certain to extend the term of the lease.
The Company has lease arrangements with both lease and non-lease components. Consideration is allocated to lease and non-lease components based on estimated standalone prices. The Company has elected to exclude non-lease components from the calculation of its ROU assets and lease liabilities. In the Company's adoption of ASC 842, leases with an initial term of 12 months or less will not result in recognition of a ROU asset and a lease liability and will be expensed as incurred over the lease term. Leases of this nature were immaterial to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The Company has lease arrangements that contain incentives for tenant improvements as well as fixed rent escalation clauses. For contracts with tenant improvement incentives that are determined to be a leasehold improvement that will be owned by the lessee and the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, it records a reduction to the lease liability and amortizes the incentive over the identified term of the lease as a reduction to rent expense. The Company records rental expense on a straight-line basis over the identified lease term on contracts with rent escalation clauses.
Finance leases are not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements and the Company is not a lessor in any material lease arrangements. There are no material restrictions, covenants, sale and leaseback transactions, variable lease payments or residual value guarantees in the Company's lease arrangements. Operating leases are included in Operating lease right-of-use assets, Accrued expenses, and Operating lease liabilities in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The standard had no impact on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. See Note N to the consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the adoption of this standard.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (“ASC 606”). The Company is a leading commercial provider of secure sensor and safety-critical mission processing subsystems. Revenues are derived from the sales of products that are grouped into one of the following three categories: (i) components; (ii) modules and sub-assemblies; and (iii) integrated subsystems. The Company also generates revenues from the performance of services, including systems engineering support, consulting, maintenance and other support, testing and installation. Each promised good or service within a contract is accounted for separately under the guidance of ASC 606 if they are distinct. Promised goods or services not meeting the criteria for being a distinct performance obligation are bundled into a single performance obligation
with other goods or services that together meet the criteria for being distinct. The appropriate allocation of the transaction price and recognition of revenue is then determined for the bundled performance obligation.
Revenue recognized at a point in time generally relates to contracts that include a combination of components, modules and sub-assemblies, integrated subsystems and related system integration or other services. Contracts with distinct performance obligations recognized at a point in time, with or without an allocation of the transaction price, totaled 79% and 76% of revenues for the second quarter and six months ended December 27, 2019, respectively. Contracts with distinct performance obligations recognized at a point in time, with or without an allocation of the transaction price, totaled 76% and 78% of revenues for the second quarter and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively.
The Company also engages in long-term contracts for development, production and service activities and recognizes revenue for performance obligations over time. These long-term contracts involve the design, development, manufacture, or modification of complex modules and sub-assemblies or integrated subsystems and related services. Long-term contracts include both fixed-price and cost reimbursable contracts. The Company’s cost reimbursable contracts typically include cost-plus fixed fee and time and material contracts.
Total revenue recognized under long-term contracts over time was 21% and 24% of total revenues for the second quarter and six months ended December 27, 2019, respectively. Total revenue recognized under long-term contracts over time was 24% and 22% of total revenues for the second quarter and six months ended and December 31, 2018, respectively.
The Company generally does not provide its customers with rights of product return other than those related to assurance warranty provisions that permit repair or replacement of defective goods over a period of 12 to 36 months. The Company accrues for anticipated warranty costs upon product shipment. The Company does not consider activities related to such assurance warranties, if any, to be a separate performance obligation. The Company does offer separately priced extended warranties which generally range from 12 to 36 months that are treated as separate performance obligations. The transaction price allocated to extended warranties is recognized over time in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred in satisfying the obligations under the contract.
All revenues are reported net of government assessed taxes (e.g., sales taxes or value-added taxes). Refer to Note L for disaggregation of revenue for the period.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts receivable, net, represents amounts that have been billed and are currently due from customers. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide for the estimated amount of receivables that will not be collected. The Company provides credit to customers in the normal course of business. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and limits the amount of credit extended as necessary. The allowance is based upon an assessment of the customers’ credit worthiness, history with the customer, and the age of the receivable balance. The Company typically invoices a customer upon shipment of the product (or completion of a service) for contracts where revenue is recognized at a point in time. For contracts where revenue is recognized over time, the invoicing events are typically based on specified performance obligation deliverables or milestone events, or quantifiable measures of performance.
CONTRACT BALANCES
Contract balances result from the timing of revenue recognized, billings and cash collections, and the generation of contract assets and liabilities. Contract assets represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts invoiced to the customer and the right to payment is not subject to the passage of time. Contract assets are presented as unbilled receivables and costs in excess of billings on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities consist of deferred product revenue, billings in excess of revenues, deferred service revenue, and customer advances. Deferred product revenue represents amounts that have been invoiced to customers, but are not yet recognizable as revenue because the Company has not satisfied its performance obligations under the contract. Billings in excess of revenues represents milestone billing contracts where the billings of the contract exceed recognized revenues. Deferred service revenue primarily represents amounts invoiced to customers for annual maintenance contracts or extended warranty contracts, which are recognized over time in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred in satisfying the obligations under the contract. Customer advances represent deposits received from customers on an order. Contract liabilities are included in deferred revenue and the long-term portion of deferred revenue is included within other non-current liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract balances are reported in a net position on a contract-by-contract basis.
The contract asset balances were $61,302 and $57,387 as of December 27, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The contract asset balance increased due to growth in revenue recognized under long-term contracts over time during the six months ended December 27, 2019. The contract liability balances were $19,388 and $12,362 as of December 27, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The increase was due to advanced billings across multiple programs.
Revenue recognized for the second quarter and six months ended December 27, 2019 that was previously included in the contract liability balance at June 30, 2019 was $2,898 and $8,274, respectively. Revenue recognized for the second quarter and six months ended December 31, 2018 that was included in the contract liability balance at June 30, 2018 was $1,617 and $8,983, respectively.
REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS
The Company includes in its computation of remaining performance obligations customer orders for which it has accepted signed sales orders. The definition of remaining performance obligations excludes contracts with original expected durations of less than one year, as well as those contracts that provide the customer with the right to cancel or terminate the order with no substantial penalty, even if the Company’s historical experience indicates the likelihood of cancellation or termination is remote. As of December 27, 2019, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $297,593. The Company expects to recognize approximately 77% of its remaining performance obligations as revenue in the next 12 months and the balance thereafter.
WEIGHTED-AVERAGE SHARES
Weighted-average shares were calculated as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Second Quarters Ended | | | | | Six Months Ended | | |
| | December 27, 2019 | | December 31, 2018 | | December 27, 2019 | | December 31, 2018 |
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding | | 54,548 | | | 47,189 | | | 54,468 | | | 47,118 | |

Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding | | 55,001 | | | 47,705 | | | 55,037 | | | 47,696 | |
Equity instruments to purchase 419 and 297 shares of common stock were not included in the calculation of diluted net earnings per share for the second quarter and six months ended December 27, 2019, because the equity instruments were anti-dilutive. Equity instruments to purchase 31 and 481 shares of common stock were not included in the calculation of diluted net earnings per share for the second quarter and six months ended and December 31, 2018, because the equity instruments were anti-dilutive.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, including money market funds, restricted cash, accounts receivable and payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities. The fair value of the Company’s certificates of deposit are determined through quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or are directly or indirectly observable.
E. Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value, and consists of materials, labor and overhead. On a quarterly basis, the Company uses consistent methodologies to evaluate inventory for net realizable value. Once an item is written down, the value becomes the new inventory cost basis. The Company reduces the value of inventory for excess and obsolete inventory, consisting of on-hand inventory in excess of estimated usage. The excess and obsolete inventory evaluation is based upon assumptions about future demand, historical usage, product mix and possible alternative uses. Inventory was comprised of the following:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | December 27, 2019 | | June 30, 2019 |

second quarters ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018 differed from the Federal statutory rate primarily due to Federal research and development credits, excess tax benefits related to stock compensation, a modified territorial tax system and a minimum tax on certain foreign earnings, and state taxes.
During the six months ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company recognized a discrete tax benefit of $6,480 and $1,716, respectively, related to excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018 differed from the Federal statutory rate primarily due to Federal research and development credits, excess tax benefits related to stock compensation, a modified territorial tax system and a minimum tax on certain foreign earnings, and state taxes.

As of December 27, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and conditions under the Revolver and there were no outstanding borrowings against the Revolver. There were outstanding letters of credit of $1,106 as of December 27, 2019.
J.Employee Benefit Plan
PENSION PLAN
The Company maintains a defined benefit pension plan (the “Plan”) for its Swiss employees, which is administered by an independent pension fund. The Plan is mandated by Swiss law and meets the criteria for a defined benefit plan under ASC 715, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (“ASC 715”), because participants of the Plan are entitled to a defined rate of return on contributions made. The independent pension fund is a multi-employer plan with unrestricted joint liability for all participating companies for which the Plan’s overfunding or underfunding is allocated to each participating company based on an allocation key determined by the Plan.
The Company recognizes a net asset or liability for the Plan equal to the difference between the projected benefit obligation of the Plan and the fair value of the Plan’s assets as required by ASC 715. The funded status may vary from year to year due to changes in the fair value of the Plan’s assets and variations on the underlying assumptions of the projected benefit obligation of the Plan. The Plan's funded status at December 27, 2019 was a net liability of $9,343, which is recorded in other non-current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

K.Stock-Based Compensation
STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS
The aggregate number of shares authorized for issuance under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”) is 2,862 shares, with an additional 710 shares rolled into the 2018 Plan that were available for future grant under the Company’s 2005 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “2005 Plan”) at the time of shareholder approval of the 2018 Plan. The 2018 Plan replaced the 2005 Plan. On November 6, 2019, an additional 184 shares from the 2005 Plan were rolled into the 2018 Plan as a result of forfeiture, cancellation, or termination (other than by exercise) of previously-made grants under the 2005 Plan. The shares authorized for issuance under the 2018 Plan will continue to be increased by any future cancellations, forfeitures or terminations (other than by exercise) of awards under the 2005 Plan. The foregoing does not affect any outstanding awards under the 2005 Plan, which remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. The 2018 Plan provides for the grant of non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock, stock
appreciation rights and deferred stock awards to employees and non-employees. All stock options are granted with an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and the options generally have a term of seven years. There were 2,681 shares available for future grant under the 2018 Plan at December 27, 2019.
As part of the Company's ongoing annual equity grant program for employees, the Company grants performance-based restricted stock awards to certain executives and employees pursuant to the 2018 Plan. Performance awards vest based on the requisite service period subject to the achievement of specific financial performance targets. Based on the performance targets, some of these awards require graded vesting which results in more rapid expense recognition compared to traditional time-based vesting over the same vesting period. The Company monitors the probability of achieving the performance targets on a quarterly basis and may adjust periodic stock compensation expense accordingly based on its determination of the likelihood for reaching targets. The performance targets generally include the achievement of internal performance targets in relation to a peer group of companies.
EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
The aggregate number of shares authorized for issuance under the Company’s 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended and restated (“ESPP”), is 1,800 shares. Under the ESPP, rights are granted to purchase shares of common stock at 85% of the lesser of the market value of such shares at either the beginning or the end of each six-month offering period. The ESPP permits employees to purchase common stock through payroll deductions, which may not exceed 10% of an employee’s compensation as defined in the ESPP. There were no shares issued under the ESPP during the six months ended December 27, 2019. There were 51 shares issued under the ESPP during the six months ended and December 31, 2018. Shares available for future purchase under the ESPP totaled 118 at December 27, 2019.

M.Commitments and Contingencies
LEGAL CLAIMS
The Company is subject to litigation, claims, investigations and audits arising from time to time in the ordinary course of its business. Although legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, the Company believes that it has valid defenses with respect to any matters currently pending against the Company and intends to defend itself vigorously. The outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s cash flows, results of operations, or financial position.
INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS
The Company’s standard product sales and license agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business typically contain an indemnification provision pursuant to which the Company indemnifies, holds harmless, and agrees to reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party in connection with any patent, copyright or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third party with respect to the Company’s products. Such provisions generally survive termination or expiration of the agreements. The potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is, in some instances, unlimited.
PURCHASE COMMITMENTS
As of December 27, 2019, the Company has entered into non-cancelable purchase commitments for certain inventory components and services used in its normal operations. The purchase commitments covered by these agreements are for less than one year and aggregate to $97,083.
OTHER
As part of the Company's strategy for growth, the Company continues to explore acquisitions or strategic alliances. The associated acquisition costs incurred in the form of professional fees and services may be material to the future periods in which they occur, regardless of whether the acquisition is ultimately completed.
The Company may elect from time to time to purchase and subsequently retire shares of common stock in order to settle employees’ tax liabilities associated with vesting of a restricted stock award or exercise of stock options. These transactions would be treated as a use of cash in financing activities in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
N.Leases
The Company enters into lease arrangements to facilitate its operations, including manufacturing, storage, as well as engineering, sales, marketing, and administration resources. As described in Note B to the consolidated financial statements, effective July 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842 using the optional transition method and, as a result, did not recast prior period unaudited consolidated comparative financial statements. As such, all prior period amounts and disclosures are presented under ASC 840, Leases (Topic 840).

OVERVIEW
Mercury Systems, Inc. is the leader in making trusted, secure mission-critical technologies profoundly more accessible to aerospace and defense. Our innovative solutions power more than 300 aerospace, commercial aviation, defense, security and intelligence programs, configured and optimized for mission success in some of the most challenging and demanding environments. Headquartered in Andover, MA, with manufacturing and design facilities around the world, Mercury specializes in engineering, adapting and manufacturing new solutions purpose-built to meet current and emerging high-tech needs. Our products and solutions have been successfully deployed with over 25 different defense prime contractors, a testament to our deep domain expertise and our commitment to Innovation that Matters®.
Our unique capabilities, technology and R&D investment strategy combine to differentiate Mercury in our industry. Our technologies and capabilities include secure embedded processing modules and subsystems, mission computers, secure and rugged rack-mount servers, safety-critical avionics, radio frequency (“RF”) components, multi-function assemblies and subsystems. We maintain our technological edge by investing in critical capabilities and intellectual property (“IP” or “building blocks”) in processing and RF, leveraging open standards and open architectures to quickly adapt those building blocks into solutions for highly data-intensive applications for the sensor processing chain, all the way from the sensor to the network. This can encompass multiple sensor and mission processing functions - including emerging needs in artificial intelligence (“AI”). We leverage the Company’s building blocks to design, build and manufacture integrated sensor processing subsystems - often including classified application-specific software and IP - for the C4ISR (command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance) and electronic warfare (“EW”) markets. These subsystems are deployed by our customers - defense and commercial aerospace companies, defense prime contractors and the U.S. Department of Defense (“DoD”) - in a variety of mission-critical applications. An important component of adapting these technologies and IP for these applications is our investment in specialized packaging, ruggedization and cooling to address size, weight and power (“SWaP”) challenges. These investments, coupled with our domestic design, development, and manufacturing capabilities in mission computing, safety-critical avionics and platform management solutions; and RF, microwave and millimeter wave components and subsystems brings significant domain expertise to our customers.
Since we conduct much of our business with our defense customers via commercial items, requests by customers are a primary driver of revenue fluctuations from quarter to quarter. Customers specify delivery date requirements that coincide with their need for our products. Because these customers may use our products in connection with a variety of defense programs or other projects of different sizes and durations, a customer’s orders for one quarter generally do not indicate a trend for future
orders by that customer. Additionally, order patterns do not necessarily correlate amongst customers and, therefore, we generally cannot identify sequential quarterly trends.
As of December 27, 2019, we had 1,805 employees. Our consolidated revenues, acquired revenues, net income, diluted net earnings per share, adjusted earnings per share (“adjusted EPS”), and adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter ended December 27, 2019 were $193.9 million, $16.3 million, $15.7 million, $0.29, $0.54, and $42.8 million, respectively. Our consolidated revenues, acquired revenues, net income, diluted net earnings per share, adjusted EPS, and adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended December 27, 2019 were $371.2 million, $35.6 million, $34.9 million, $0.63, $0.98, and $79.5 million, respectively. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section for a reconciliation to our most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Results of operations for the second quarter ended December 27, 2019 include full period results from the acquisitions of GECO Avionics, LLC (“GECO”), The Athena Group, Inc. (“Athena”), Syntonic Microwave LLC (“Syntonic”) and American Panel Corporation (“APC”). Results of operations for the six months ended December 27, 2019 include full period results from the acquisitions of Germane Systems, LC (“Germane”), GECO, Athena, Syntonic and only the results from acquisition date for APC which was acquired subsequent to June 30, 2019. Results of operations for six months ended December 31, 2018, include only results from the acquisition date for Germane. Accordingly, the periods presented below are not directly comparable.

REVENUES
Total revenues increased $34.8 million, or 21.9%, for the second quarter ended December 27, 2019, as compared to the second quarter ended December 31, 2018 including “acquired revenue” which represents net revenue from acquired businesses that have been part of Mercury for completion of four full quarters or less (and excludes any intercompany transactions). After the completion of four fiscal quarters, acquired businesses will be treated as organic for current and comparable historical periods. The increase was primarily due to $18.5 million of additional organic revenues which were predominantly driven by increased demand for components and modules and sub-assemblies across the radar and electronic warfare (“EW”) applications. The organic revenues increase were driven by the Filthy Badger, F16/SABR and P8 programs, which were partially offset by decreases in the F-35 program. Total revenues also increased $16.3 million from acquired revenues due to GECO, Athena, Syntonic and APC, which were all acquired following December 31, 2018. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section for a reconciliation to our most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
GROSS MARGIN
Gross margin was 45.6% for the second quarter ended December 27, 2019, an increase of 100 basis points from the 44.6% gross margin achieved during the second quarter ended December 31, 2018. The higher gross margin was primarily driven by program mix and operational efficiencies, as well as a decrease in Customer Funded Research and Development (“CRAD”). The Athena and APC acquisitions also contributed to the increase in gross margin. CRAD primarily represents engineering labor associated with long-term contracts for customized development, production and service activities. Due to the nature of these efforts, they typically carry a lower margin. These products are predominately grouped within integrated subsystems and to a lesser extent modules and sub-assemblies. The gross margin improvement was partially offset by $0.6 million of inventory step-up related to the APC acquisition for the second quarter ended December 27, 2019.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $5.0 million, or 18.0%, to $32.8 million during the second quarter ended December 27, 2019, as compared to $27.8 million in the second quarter ended December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily related to additional headcount from organic growth, as well as the acquisitions of GECO, Athena, Syntonic and APC. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of revenue to 16.9% for the second quarter ended December 27, 2019 from 17.5% for the second quarter ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to improved operating leverage.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development expenses increased approximately $8.5 million, or 52.5%, to $24.7 million during the second quarter ended December 27, 2019, as compared to $16.2 million during the second quarter ended December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to increased headcount from organic growth and our recent acquisitions. Research and development expenses accounted for 12.7% and 10.2% of our revenues for second quarter ended December 27, 2019 and second quarter ended December 31, 2018, respectively. The increase as a percentage of revenue was primarily driven by the continued investment in the growth of the business for the second quarter ended December 27, 2019.
RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES
Restructuring and other charges increased $1.1 million during the second quarter ended December 27, 2019, as compared to the second quarter ended December 31, 2018. Restructuring and other charges are typically related to acquisitions and organizational redesign programs initiated as part of discrete post-acquisition integration activities.
ACQUISITION COSTS AND OTHER RELATED EXPENSES
We incurred $1.1 million of acquisition costs and other related expenses during the second quarter ended December 27, 2019, as compared to $0.1 million during the second quarter ended December 31, 2018. The second quarter ended December 27, 2019 included acquisition costs and other related expenses related to the acquisition of APC, as well as costs associated with our evaluation of other acquisition opportunities. We expect to incur acquisition costs and other related expenses periodically in the future as we continue to seek acquisition opportunities to expand our technological capabilities and especially within sensor and effector and C4I markets. Transaction costs incurred by the acquiree prior to the consummation of an acquisition would not be reflected in our historical results of operations.
INTEREST INCOME
Interest income increased to $0.3 million in the second quarter ended December 27, 2019. This was driven by higher average balances of cash on hand during the second quarter ended December 27, 2019.
INTEREST EXPENSE
There was no interest expense incurred during the second quarter ended December 27, 2019, as there were no outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility (“the Revolver”) during the period.
OTHER EXPENSE, NET
Other expense, net decreased $0.5 million for the second quarter ended December 27, 2019, as compared to the second quarter ended December 31, 2018. The decrease was driven by additional foreign currency translation gain of $0.5 million for the second quarter ended December 27, 2019, compared to the second quarter ended December 31, 2018.
INCOME TAXES
We recorded an income tax provision of $5.1 million and $4.5 million on income before income taxes of $20.8 million and $16.9 million for the second quarters ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. During the second
quarters ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we recognized a discrete tax benefit of $0.4 million and $0.1 million related to excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation.
The effective tax rate for the second quarters ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018 differed from the Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to Federal research and development credits, excess tax benefits related to stock compensation, a modified territorial tax system and a minimum tax on certain foreign earnings, and state taxes.
Within the calculation of our annual effective tax rate we have used assumptions and estimates that may change as a result of future guidance and interpretation from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”).

Net income | | $ | 34,923 | | | 9.4 | % | | $ | 19,862 | | | 6.6 | % |
REVENUES
Total revenues increased $68.1 million, or 22.5%, for the six months ended December 27, 2019 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2018. The increase is primarily due to $41.5 million of additional organic revenues related to increased demand primarily for integrated subsystems and components across the EW, other sensor and effector and C4I applications. The increases in organic revenues were primarily driven by the SEWIP Block II and AIDEWS programs and a classified missile program, which were partially offset by decreases in the F-35 and WIN-T programs. Total revenues also increased due to $26.6 million of additional acquired revenues from the Germane, GECO, Athena, Syntonic and APC acquisitions. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section for a reconciliation to our most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
GROSS MARGIN
Gross margin was 45.0% for the six months ended December 27, 2019, an increase of 130 basis points from the 43.7% gross margin achieved during the six months ended December 31, 2018. The higher gross margin was primarily driven by program mix, including lower CRAD, operational efficiencies and acquired businesses of Athena and APC. The six months ended December 27, 2019 and six months ended December 31, 2018, both include inventory step-up amortization of $0.6 million related to the APC and Germane acquisitions, respectively.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $10.2 million or 19.4%, to $62.8 million during the six months ended December 27, 2019, compared to $52.6 million in the six months ended December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily
related to additional headcount from organic growth as well as the acquisitions of GECO, Athena, Syntonic and APC. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of revenues to 16.9% during the six months ended December 27, 2019 from 17.3% during the six months ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to operating leverage.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development expenses increased $15.4 million, or 49.5%, to $46.5 million during the six months ended December 27, 2019, compared to $31.1 million during the six months ended December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to increased headcount from organic growth and our recent acquisitions. Research and development expenses increased as a percentage of revenues to 12.5% during the six months ended December 27, 2019 from 10.3% during the six months ended December 31, 2018. The increase was driven by continued investment in the growth of the business during the six months ended December 27, 2019.
RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES
Restructuring and other charges were $1.7 million for the six months ended December 27, 2019, compared to $0.5 million during the six months ended December 31, 2018. Restructuring and other charges are typically related to acquisitions and organizational redesign programs initiated as part of discrete post-acquisition integration activities.
ACQUISITION COSTS AND OTHER RELATED EXPENSES
We incurred $2.5 million of acquisition costs and other related expenses during the six months ended December 27, 2019, compared to $0.5 million during the six months ended December 31, 2018. The acquisition costs and other related expenses we incurred during the six months ended December 27, 2019 were related to the acquisition of APC as well as costs associated with our evaluation of other acquisition opportunities. We expect to incur acquisition costs and other related expenses periodically in the future as we continue to seek acquisition opportunities to expand our capabilities and new end markets within the sensor processing chain. Transaction costs incurred by the acquiree prior to the consummation of an acquisition would not be reflected in our historical results of operations.
INTEREST INCOME
Interest income increased to $1.5 million during the six months ended December 27, 2019. This was driven by higher average balances of cash on hand during the six months ended December 27, 2019.
INTEREST EXPENSE
There was no interest expense incurred during the six months ended December 27, 2019, as there were no outstanding borrowings on the Revolver during the period.
OTHER EXPENSE, NET
Other expense, net was $1.8 million during the six months ended December 27, 2019, compared to $1.9 million during the six months ended December 31, 2018. The decrease in other expense, net was due to a $0.3 million foreign exchange gains during the six months ended December 27, 2019, compared to a $0.3 million foreign exchange loss during the six months ended December 31, 2018. The increase in foreign exchange gains, was partially offset by an additional $0.2 million of financing and registration fees and $0.3 million of litigation and settlement expenses during the six months ended December 27, 2019, respectively.
INCOME TAXES
We recorded an income tax provision of $3.1 million and $7.6 million on income from operations before income taxes of $38.0 million and $27.5 million for the six months ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. During the six months ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we recognized discrete tax benefits of $6.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively, related to excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation.
The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018 differed from the Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to Federal research and development credits, excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, a modified territorial tax system and a minimum tax on certain foreign earnings, and state taxes.
Within the calculation of our annual effective tax rate we have used assumptions and estimates that may change as a result of future guidance and interpretation from the IRS.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our primary sources of liquidity come from existing cash and cash generated from operations, our Revolver and our ability to raise capital under our universal shelf registration statement. Our near-term fixed commitments for cash expenditures consist primarily of payments under operating leases and inventory purchase commitments. We plan to invest in improvements to our facilities, including the expansion of our trusted custom microelectronics business during fiscal 2020.
Based on our current plans and business conditions, we believe that existing cash and cash equivalents, our available Revolver, cash generated from operations, and our financing capabilities will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.
Shelf Registration Statement
On August 28, 2017, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR with the SEC. The shelf registration statement, which was effective upon filing with the SEC, registered each of the following securities: debt securities, preferred stock, common stock, warrants and units. We intend to use the proceeds from financings under the shelf registration statement for general corporate purposes, which may include the following:
•the acquisition of other companies or businesses;
•the repayment and refinancing of debt;
•capital expenditures;
•working capital; and
•other purposes as described in the prospectus supplement.
We have an unlimited amount available under the shelf registration statement. Additionally, as part of the shelf registration statement, we have entered into an equity distribution agreement which allows us to sell an aggregate of up to $200.0 million of our common stock from time to time through our agents. The actual dollar amount and number of shares of common stock we sell pursuant to the equity distribution agreement will be dependent on, among other things, market conditions and our fund raising requirements. The agents may sell the common stock by any method deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including without limitation sales made directly on Nasdaq, on any other existing trading market for the common stock or to or through a market maker. In addition, our common stock may be offered and sold by such other methods, including privately negotiated transactions, as we and the agents may agree.
Revolving Credit Facility
On September 28, 2018, we amended the Revolver to increase and extend the borrowing capacity to a $750.0 million, 5-year revolving credit line, with the maturity extended to September 2023. As of December 27, 2019, we had no outstanding borrowings on the Revolver. See Note I in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the Revolver.
CASH FLOWS
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | As of and For the Six Months Ended, | | |
(In thousands) | | December 27, 2019 | | December 31, 2018 |
Net cash provided by operating activities | | $ | 56,376 | | | $ | 45,330 | |
Net cash used in investing activities | | $ | (117,421) | | | $ | (55,831) | |
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities | | $ | (14,934) | | | $ | 37,894 | |
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents | | $ | (75,895) | | | $ | 27,382 | |
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period | | $ | 182,037 | | | $ | 93,903 | |
Our cash and cash equivalents decreased by $75.9 million from June 30, 2019 to December 27, 2019, primarily as the result of $96.5 million of cash on hand used to fund the acquisition of APC, $20.9 million invested in purchases of property and equipment and $14.9 million used in the purchase and retirement of common stock to settle individual employees' tax liabilities associated with vesting of restricted stock awards These decreases were partially offset by $56.4 million provided by operating activities.
Operating Activities
During the six months ended December 27, 2019, we generated $56.4 million in cash from operating activities, an increase of $11.0 million when compared to the six months ended December 31, 2018. The increase in cash generated by operating activities was primarily the result of higher comparable net income, higher cash collections on outstanding accounts receivable and lower inventory purchases. These increases were partially offset by increased prepaid income taxes, decreased accounts payable, accrued expenses and income taxes payable and deferred revenue and customer advances.
Investing Activities
During the six months ended December 27, 2019, we invested $117.4 million compared to $55.8 million during the six months ended December 31, 2018. The increase was driven by the acquisition of APC during the six months ended December 27, 2019 and an additional $10.1 million invested in purchases of property and equipment, primarily related to the build out of our trusted custom microelectronics business during the six months ended December 27, 2019, as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2018.
Financing Activities
During the six months ended December 27, 2019, we had $14.9 million in cash used in financing activities compared to $37.9 million in cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended December 31, 2018. The $52.8 million decrease was primarily due to no borrowings on the Revolver and $8.0 million of additional payments related to the purchase and retirement of common stock used to settle individual employees’ tax liabilities associated with vesting of restricted stock awards during the six months ended December 27, 2019, as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2018.
COMMITMENTS, CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND CONTINGENCIES
The following is a schedule of our commitments and contractual obligations outstanding at December 27, 2019:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(In thousands) | | Total | | Less Than 1 Year | | 1-3 Years | | 3-5 Years | | More Than 5 Years |
Purchase obligations | | $ | 97,083 | | | $ | 97,083 | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | |
Operating leases | | 79,051 | | | 10,074 | | | 25,509 | | | 20,007 | | | 23,461 | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | $ | 176,134 | | | $ | 107,157 | | | $ | 25,509 | | | $ | 20,007 | | | $ | 23,461 | |
Purchase obligations represent open non-cancelable purchase commitments for certain inventory components and services used in normal operations. The purchase commitments covered by these agreements are for less than one year and aggregated approximately $97.1 million at December 27, 2019.
We have a liability at December 27, 2019 of $1.4 million for uncertain tax positions that have been taken or are expected to be taken in various income tax returns. We do not know the ultimate resolution on these uncertain tax positions and as such, do not know the ultimate timing of payments related to this liability. Accordingly, these amounts are not included in the above table.
Our standard product sales and license agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business typically contain an indemnification provision pursuant to which we indemnify, hold harmless, and agree to reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred in connection with certain intellectual property infringement claims by any third party with respect to our products. Such provisions generally survive termination or expiration of the agreements. The potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is, in some instances, unlimited.
As part of our strategy for growth, we continue to explore acquisitions or strategic alliances. The associated acquisition costs incurred in the form of professional fees and services may be material to the future periods in which they occur, regardless of whether the acquisition is ultimately completed.
We may elect from time to time to purchase and subsequently retire shares of common stock in order to settle employees’ tax liabilities associated with vesting of a restricted stock award or exercise of stock options. These transactions would be treated as a use of cash in financing activities in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Other than certain indemnification provisions in the normal course of business, we do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities, guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets, or any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not consolidated in the financial statements. Additionally, we do not have an interest in, or relationships with, any special purpose entities.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In our periodic communications, we discuss certain important measures that are not calculated according to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income, adjusted EPS, free cash flow, organic revenue and acquired revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before other non-operating adjustments, interest income and expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and other charges, impairment of long-lived assets, acquisition and financing costs, fair value adjustments from purchase accounting, litigation and settlement income and expense, and stock-based and other non-cash compensation expense. We use adjusted EBITDA as an important indicator of the operating performance of our business. We use adjusted EBITDA in internal forecasts and models when establishing internal operating budgets, supplementing the financial results and forecasts reported to our board of directors, determining the portion of bonus compensation for executive officers and other key employees based on operating performance, evaluating short-term and long-term operating trends in our operations and allocating resources to various initiatives and operational requirements. We believe that adjusted EBITDA permits a comparative assessment of our operating performance, relative to our performance based on our GAAP results, while isolating the effects of charges that may vary from period to period without any correlation to underlying operating performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial adjustments are useful to investors because they allow investors to evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by management in our financial and operational decision-making. We believe that trends in our adjusted EBITDA are valuable indicators of our operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. We expect to continue to incur expenses similar to the adjusted EBITDA financial adjustments described above, and investors should not infer from our presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.
The following table reconciles our net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to our adjusted EBITDA:

(1) Restructuring and other charges are typically related to acquisitions and organizational redesign programs initiated as part of discrete post-acquisition integration activities. We believe these items are non-routine and may not be indicative of ongoing operating results.
(2) For the second quarter and six months ended December 27, 2019, fair value adjustments from purchase accounting relate to APC inventory step-up amortization. For the six months ended December 31, 2018, fair value adjustments from purchase accounting relate to Germane inventory step-up amortization.
Adjusted income and adjusted EPS exclude the impact of certain items and, therefore, have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that exclusion of these items assists in providing a more complete understanding of our underlying results and trends and allows for comparability with our peer company index and industry. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. We use these measures along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage our business and to evaluate our performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace. We define adjusted income as net income before amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and other charges, impairment of long-lived assets, acquisition and financing costs, fair value
adjustments from purchase accounting, litigation and settlement income and expense, and stock-based and other non-cash compensation expense. The impact to income taxes includes the impact to the effective tax rate, current tax provision and deferred tax provision. Adjusted EPS expresses adjusted income on a per share basis using weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
Adjusted income and adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. We expect to continue to incur expenses similar to the adjusted income and adjusted EPS financial adjustments described above, and investors should not infer from our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.
The following tables reconcile net income and diluted earnings per share, the most directly comparable GAAP measures, to adjusted income and adjusted EPS:

Free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure for reporting cash flow, is defined as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures for property and equipment, which includes capitalized software development costs. We believe free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on cash available for investments and acquisitions after making capital investments required to support ongoing business operations and long-term value creation. We believe that trends in our free cash flow can be valuable indicators of our operating performance and liquidity.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. We expect to continue to incur expenditures similar to the free cash flow adjustment described above, and investors should not infer from our presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure that these expenditures reflect all of our obligations which require cash.
The following table reconciles cash provided by operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to free cash flow:

Organic revenue and acquired revenue are non-GAAP measures for reporting financial performance of our business. We believe this information provides investors with insight as to our ongoing business performance. Organic revenue represents total company revenue excluding net revenue from acquired companies for the first four full quarters since the entities’ acquisition date (which excludes intercompany transactions). Acquired revenue represents revenue from acquired companies for the first four full quarters since the entities' acquisition date (which excludes intercompany transactions). After the completion of four full fiscal quarters, acquired revenue is treated as organic for current and comparable historical periods.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. This ASU eliminates the requirement to measure the implied fair value of goodwill by assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all assets and liabilities within that unit (“the Step 2 test”) from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited by the amount of goodwill in that reporting unit. For public business entities, the new standard is effective for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The ASU requires prospective adoption and permits early adoption for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact to its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects for Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. This ASU permits a company to reclassify the disproportionate income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 on items within AOCI to retained earnings. The amounts applicable for reclassification should include the effect of the change in the U.S. Federal corporate income tax rate on the gross deferred tax amounts and related valuation allowances, if any, at the date of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 related to the items remaining in AOCI. The effect of the change in the U.S. Federal corporate income tax rate on gross valuation allowances that were originally charged to income from continuing operations shall not be included. The Company has determined that there is no activity that falls within the scope of this ASU.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Topic 715) Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments in this ASU remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost-beneficial, clarify the specific requirements of disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. For public business entities, the standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. The ASU requires retrospective adoption and permits early adoption for all entities. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact to its consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The ASU provides guidance to determine whether to
capitalize implementation costs of a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract or expense as incurred. Costs of arrangements that do not include a software license should be accounted for as a service contract and expensed as incurred. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The ASU permits two methods of adoption: prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption, or retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact to its consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for intraperiod tax allocations and deferred tax liabilities for equity method investments and adds guidance whether a step-up in tax basis of goodwill relates to a business combination or a separate transaction. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2019-12 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Effective July 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”), which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability for most lease arrangements. This ASU supersedes existing lease guidance, including ASC 840, Leases (Topic 840). The standard mandates a modified retrospective transition method for all entities and early adoption is permitted. This ASU, among other things, allows companies to elect an optional transition method to apply the new lease standard through a cumulative-effect adjustment in the period of adoption. We adopted ASC 842 using the optional transition method and, as a result, did not recast prior period unaudited consolidated comparative financial statements. All prior period amounts and disclosures remain presented under ASC 840. We elected the package of practical expedients which allows us to not reassess: 1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; 2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and 3) initial direct costs for any existing leases. We also elected the hindsight practical expedient, permitting the use of hindsight when determining the lease term and assessing impairment of ROU assets. Adoption of the new standard resulted in additional lease assets and lease liabilities on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet with no cumulative impact to retained earnings and did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There were no material changes in our exposure to market risk from June 30, 2019 to December 27, 2019.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 27, 2019. We continue to review our disclosure controls and procedures and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our Company’s business. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended December 27, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, management is in the process of integrating the recently acquired APC business into our overall internal control over financial reporting environment.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are subject to litigation, claims, investigations and audits arising from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. Although legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, we believe that we have valid defenses with respect to those matters currently pending against us and intend to defend our self vigorously. The outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, is not expected to have a material impact on our cash flows, results of operations, or financial position.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
You should carefully review and consider the information regarding certain factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results set forth under Item 1A (Risk Factors) in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. There have been no material changes from the factors disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on August 15, 2019, although we may disclose changes to such factors or disclose factors from time to time in our future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
