1.	Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

Jason Industries, Inc. (“Jason Industries”), including its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a global industrial manufacturing company. In the first quarter of 2019, as part of a review of the Company’s organizational structure, the Company made certain strategic leadership changes which required a reassessment of reportable segments. Based on this evaluation, the Company changed how it makes operating decisions, assesses performance of the business, and allocates resources. As a result, the Company reduced the number of operating and reportable segments from four to three: industrial, engineered components, and fiber solutions. The prior year disclosures have been updated to conform with current year presentation.

The Company operates in the United States and 13 foreign countries. The Company’s industrial segment, formerly the finishing segment, focuses on the production of industrial brushes, polishing buffs and compounds, abrasives, and roller technology products that are used in a broad range of industrial and infrastructure applications. The engineered components segment, the combined former seating and components segments, designs, engineers, and manufactures seating, safety and filtration products used in heavy industry (construction, agriculture, and material handling), turf care, power sports, rail and general industrial applications. The fiber solutions segment, formerly the acoustics segment, manufactures technical, non-woven fiber-based acoustical, thermal, and structural products serving automotive and other end markets.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. For additional information, including the Company’s significant accounting policies, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q).

The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31 . Throughout the year, the Company reports its results using a fiscal calendar whereby each three month quarterly reporting period is approximately thirteen weeks in length, ending on a Friday. The exceptions are the first quarter, which begins on January 1 , and the fourth quarter, which ends on December 31 . For 2019 , the Company’s fiscal quarters are comprised of the three months ending March 29 , June 28 , September 27 and December 31 . In 2018 , the Company’s fiscal quarters were comprised of the three months ended March 30 , June 29 , September 28 and December 31 .

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of financial results have been made. Such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

Recently issued accounting standards

Accounting standards adopted in the current fiscal year

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “ Leases (Topic 842) ” (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 establishes new accounting and disclosure requirements for leases. See Note 7 , “Leases” for further discussion regarding the adoption of this standard.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, “ Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities ” (“ASU 2017-12”). ASU 2017-12 broadens the scope of financial and nonfinancial strategies eligible for hedge accounting and makes certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of hedge accounting guidance. In addition, the standard amends the presentation and disclosure requirements for hedges and is intended to more closely align the hedge accounting guidance with a company’s risk management strategies. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 effective January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or the related disclosures within the accompanying notes.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts) (Unaudited)

Accounting standards to be adopted in future fiscal periods

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “ Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Topic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans ” (“ASU 2018-14”). ASU 2018-14 modifies certain disclosure requirements for pension and other postretirement plans, such as eliminating disclosure requirements to disclose the amounts in accumulated other comprehensive loss expected to be recognized as a component of net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year and the impact that a 1% increase or decrease in the medical trend rate would have on the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. As the scope of ASU 2018-14 is limited to only financial disclosure requirements, the standard will not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on the employee benefit plan disclosures within the notes to the annual consolidated financial statements, as well as the planned timing of adoption.



2.	Revision of Previously Reported Financial Information

During the first quarter of 2019, the Company identified an error in the income tax provision and deferred income taxes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018. As a result of this income tax error, the Company restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 on Form 10-K/A. See the Form 10-K/A for additional details regarding the error.

As a result of this error, the Company’s previously reported tax provision for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 was overstated by $0.2 million and $0.4 million , respectively, within the condensed consolidated statement of operations. While the impact of this error is not material to the previously reported quarterly interim period, the Company has revised its condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 included herein to reflect the correction of this error. Amounts throughout the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted to incorporate the revised amounts, where applicable.

The impact of the required correction to the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) income were as follows:

3.	Acquisition

On April 1, 2019, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Schaffner Manufacturing Company, Inc. (“Schaffner”). Schaffner is a North American manufacturer of high-quality polishing and finishing products. These products are being manufactured and distributed by the industrial segment. Through the acquisition of Schaffner, the Company expanded its polishing product line offerings within North America. Upon finalization of working capital adjustments and other settlement items, the purchase price was $11.0 million , net of $0.2 million of cash acquired, of which $10.5 million has been paid as of June 28, 2019 . Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of 2019, the Company paid the remaining $0.5 million . The related purchase agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants between the named parties.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. The operating results and cash flows of Schaffner are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from April 1, 2019, the date of the acquisition.

The Company has recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase price for tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the April 1, 2019 acquisition date. The preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows:



	Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
Accounts receivable	$	2,415
Inventories	3,334
Other current assets	18
Property, plant and equipment	2,344
Right-of-use operating lease assets	222
Goodwill	2,033
Other intangible assets	2,670
Current liabilities	(1,911		)
Other long-term liabilities	(125		)
Total purchase price	$	11,000

The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $2.0 million in the industrial segment, all of which is deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill generated from Schaffner is primarily attributable to expected synergies from leveraging the industrial segment’s global distribution and sales network and cross-selling of Schaffner’s product portfolio to the industrial segment’s customer base. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is based on the preliminary valuations performed to determine the fair value of the net assets as of the acquisition date. The amounts allocated to goodwill and intangible assets are based on preliminary valuations and are subject to adjustments to reflect the final valuations.

The preliminary values allocated to other intangible assets - net and the weighted average useful lives are as follows:



	Gross Carrying Amount		Weighted Average Useful Life (years)
Customer relationships	$	1,750	10
Trademarks	400		1
Non-compete agreements	520		5
	$	2,670

The Company recognized $0.1 million and $0.3 million of acquisition-related costs that were expensed in the three and six months ended June 28, 2019 , respectively. These costs are included in the consolidated statements of operations as “Selling and administrative expenses”.

During the three and six months ended June 28, 2019 , $5.3 million of net sales from Schaffner were included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Pro forma historical results of operations related to the acquisition of Schaffner have not been presented as they are not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.



4.	Net Sales

The industrial segment operates principally as a provider of industrial brushes, polishing buffs and compounds, abrasives and roller technology products that are used in a broad range of industrial and infrastructure applications. The Company typically sells products within this business under purchase orders through both direct to customer and distribution sales channels. The Company generally transfers control and recognizes net sales when the product is shipped to the customer. Within the industrial segment, there are certain custom products for customers with minimum stocking agreements for which the Company recognizes net sales over time. Revenue from products transferred to customers over time accounted for less than 1% of industrial net sales for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 , respectively.

The engineered components segment operates principally as a seating and component Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”) within the lawn and turf care, agriculture, construction, material handling, power sports, rail and general industrial markets. The Company sells products within this business under both purchase orders and contracts for custom products primarily through the direct to customer sales channel. The Company transfers control and recognizes net sales at a point in time upon shipment to the customer for these contracts.

The fiber solutions segment operates principally as an automotive OEM Tier-1 and Tier-2 supplier. The products in this business are generally custom products sold direct to customers that are awarded by platform to a sole supplier for the life of the platform which can span several years. The Company transfers control and recognizes net sales at a point in time upon shipment to the customer for these contracts.

The Company disaggregates net sales by geography based on the country of origin of the final sale with the external customer. In certain cases the products may be manufactured in other countries at facilities within the Company’s global network. The following table summarizes net sales disaggregated by geography and reportable segment:

5.	Restructuring Costs

On March 1, 2016, as part of a strategic review of organizational structure and operations, the Company announced a global cost reduction and restructuring program (the “2016 program”). The 2016 program, as used herein, refers to costs related to various restructuring activities across business segments. This includes entering into severance and termination agreements with employees and footprint rationalization activities, including exit and relocation costs for the consolidation and closure of plant facilities and lease termination costs. These activities were ongoing throughout the fiscal years ended 2016, 2017, 2018 and the six months ended June 28, 2019 and are considered substantially complete as of June 28, 2019. As the 2016 program was deemed to be complete for identification of new actions as of December 31, 2018, all costs incurred during 2019 under the program related to completion of actions previously identified prior to closure of the program.

In 2019, additional restructuring initiatives were identified across the business segments, and the Company anticipates continuing to identify future actions including entering into severance and termination agreements with employees and footprint rationalization activities, including exit and relocation costs for the consolidation and closure of plant facilities. As these are not part of the 2016 program, such costs are presented separately below in “Other Restructuring Actions.”

Restructuring costs are presented separately on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Commencing on January 1, 2019, the Company recognizes lease termination costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, “Leases” (“ASC 842”) which addresses termination costs related to both financing and operating lease obligations. Prior to January 1, 2019, the Company recognized such costs in accordance with ASC 420, “Exit and Disposal Cost Obligations” related to operating leases. Prior period results continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.

At June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the restructuring liabilities related to the 2016 program severance costs were classified as accrued compensation and employee benefits and the other costs were classified as other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. At June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the accrual for other costs primarily relates to the consolidation of two U.S. plants within the engineered components and fiber solutions segments.

7.	Leases

Adoption of ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” and all related amendments using the modified retrospective method with no adjustments to comparative prior periods. The Company also elected certain practical expedients that allowed the Company to (1) recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings; (2) forgo reassessment of its prior conclusions on (a) whether an expired or existing contract contains a lease, (b) the lease classification of expired or existing leases, and (c) whether any costs incurred for expired or existing leases qualified as initial direct costs; and (3) use an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset to choose whether or not to separate non-lease components from lease components. Subsequent to the date of adoption, the Company recognizes and measures new or modified leases in accordance with ASC 842. Prior to January 1, 2019, the Company recognized and measured leases in accordance with ASC 840, “Leases” and prior period results continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.

Under the modified retrospective approach for the adoption of ASC 842, the adoption resulted in the recording of a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset of $43.3 million and a lease liability of $45.3 million within the condensed consolidated balance sheet on January 1, 2019. The difference between the ROU asset and lease liability on the date of adoption relates to the reclassification of $3.0 million of certain previously recorded deferred rent balances to the ROU asset and to the reclassification of $1.1 million of other intangible assets - net related to below market rents that resulted from the June 30, 2014 go public business combination to the ROU asset.

In addition, in accordance with the implementation guidance of ASU 2016-02, on January 1, 2019 the Company recorded the cumulative impact of adopting the new standard on the condensed consolidated financial statements in which the Company recorded a deferred gain within other long-term liabilities of $1.0 million , $0.8 million net of tax, to retained deficit related to a previous sale leaseback of its Libertyville, Illinois facility.

Finance and Operating Lease Obligations

The Company’s lease portfolio includes both real estate and non-real estate type leases which are accounted for as either finance or operating leases. Real estate leases generally include office, warehouse and manufacturing facilities and non-real estate leases generally include office equipment, manufacturing machinery, vehicles and other transportation equipment. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of less than 1 year to 13 years. Many of the leases include provisions that enable the Company to renew the lease, and a number of leases are subject to various escalation clauses. Renewal options that are deemed reasonably certain are included as part of the lease term for purposes of calculating the ROU asset and lease liability. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recorded on the date the Company takes possession of the leased assets on the balance sheet with expense recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with an estimated total term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and the lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company will only reassess the lease classification when modifications or changes to key terms are made to a lease agreement. Generally, the Company’s real estate type leases contain both lease components and non-lease components. Non-lease components of real estate type leases are excluded from the calculation of the ROU asset and lease liability and are excluded from lease expense. For the Company’s non-real estate type leases, non-lease components are included in the calculation of the ROU asset and lease liability and included in lease expense over the term of the lease. The Company uses a discount rate to calculate the ROU asset and lease liability. When the implicit rate is known or provided in the lease documents, the Company is required to use this rate as the discount rate. In cases in which the implicit rate is not known, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate based upon the sovereign treasury rate for the currency in which the lease liability is denominated on the date the Company takes possession of the leased asset adjusted for various factors, such as term and an internal credit spread.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

As of June 28, 2019 , the Company’s U.S. credit facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”) included (i) term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $310.0 million (“First Lien Term Loans”) maturing June 30, 2021, of which $291.0 million is outstanding, (ii) term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $110.0 million (“Second Lien Term Loans”) maturing June 30, 2022, of which $89.9 million is outstanding, and (iii) a revolving loan of up to $25.5 million (“Revolving Credit Facility”) maturing December 31, 2020. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company amended its Revolving Credit Facility to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2020. The amendment reduced the borrowing capacity from $30.0 million to $25.5 million . In connection with the amendment, the Company paid deferred financing costs of $0.3 million which have been recorded within other assets - net within the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The principal amount of the First Lien Term Loans amortizes in quarterly installments equal to $0.8 million , with the balance payable at maturity. At the Company’s election, the interest rate per annum applicable to the loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities is based on a fluctuating rate of interest determined by reference to either (i) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (a) the administrative agent’s prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% or (c) the Eurocurrency rate applicable for an interest period of one month plus 1.00% , plus an applicable margin equal to (x) 3.50% in the case of the First Lien Term Loans, (y) 2.25% in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility or (z) 7.00% in the case of the

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts) (Unaudited)

Second Lien Term Loans or (ii) a Eurocurrency rate determined by reference to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), adjusted for statutory reserve requirements, plus an applicable margin equal to (x) 4.50% in the case of the First Lien Term Loans, (y) 3.25% in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility or (z) 8.00% in the case of the Second Lien Term Loans. Borrowings are subject to a floor of 1.00% in the case of Eurocurrency loans. The applicable margin for loans under the Revolving Credit Facility may be subject to adjustment based upon Jason Incorporated’s (an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) consolidated first lien net leverage ratio. At June 28, 2019 , the interest rates on the outstanding balances of the First Lien Term Loans and Second Lien Term Loans were 6.8% and 10.3% , respectively.

Under the Revolving Credit Facility, if the aggregate outstanding amount of all Revolving Loans, swingline loans and certain letter of credit obligations (letters of credit in excess of $5.0 million ) exceeds $10.0 million at the end of any fiscal quarter, Jason Incorporated and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) will be required to not exceed a consolidated first lien net leverage ratio, currently specified at 4.50 to 1.00 , with a decrease to 4.25 to 1.00 on December 31, 2019 and a decrease to 4.00 to 1.00 on June 26, 2020 and thereafter. If such outstanding amounts do not exceed $10.0 million at the end of any fiscal quarter, no financial covenants are applicable. The consolidated first lien net leverage ratio at June 28, 2019 was 4.88 to 1.00 ; therefore, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, including letters of credit in excess of $5.0 million , would be limited to a total of $10.0 million . At June 28, 2019 , the Company had letters of credit outstanding of $4.9 million and there were no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the Company is subject to mandatory excess cash flow prepayments if certain requirements are met. At June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , there was no required mandatory excess cash flow prepayment required under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain a number of customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of Jason Incorporated and its Restricted Subsidiaries to: incur additional indebtedness (including guarantee obligations); incur liens; engage in mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions; sell assets; pay dividends and make other payments in respect of capital stock; make acquisitions, investments, loans and advances; pay and modify the terms of certain indebtedness; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; enter into negative pledge clauses and clauses restricting subsidiary distributions; and change its line of business, in each case, subject to certain limited exceptions. To comply with these covenants, Jason Incorporated and its Restricted Subsidiaries are limited in the amount of cash that can be distributed to Jason Industries, Inc. in the form of dividends, loans or other distributions. As of June 28, 2019 , this limit was $15.5 million .

Foreign debt

The Company has the following foreign debt obligations, including various overdraft facilities and term loans:



	June 28, 2019		December 31, 2018
Germany	$	13,813	$	15,002
Mexico	1,643		2,000
India	549		467
Total foreign debt	$	16,005	$	17,469

These various foreign loans are comprised of individual outstanding obligations ranging from approximately $0.2 million to $8.5 million and $0.1 million to $9.3 million as of June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. Certain of the Company’s foreign borrowings contain financial covenants requiring maintenance of a minimum equity ratio and/or maximum leverage ratio, among others. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of June 28, 2019 .

The foreign debt obligations in Germany relate to term loans of $13.8 million at June 28, 2019 and $15.0 million at December 31, 2018 . The German borrowings bear interest at fixed and variable rates ranging from 2.1% to 4.7% and are subject to repayment in varying amounts through 2025 .

Interest Rate Hedge Contracts

The Company is exposed to certain financial risks relating to fluctuations in interest rates. To manage exposure to such fluctuations, the Company entered into forward starting interest rate swap agreements (“Swaps”) in 2015 with notional values totaling $210.0 million at both June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . The Swaps have been designated by the Company as cash flow hedges, and effectively fix the variable portion of interest rates on variable rate term loan borrowings at a rate of approximately 2.08% prior to financing spreads and related fees. The Swaps have an expiration date of June 30, 2020. For the three months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 , the Company recognized $0.3 million and $0.1 million of interest income, respectively, related to the Swaps. For the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 , the Company recognized $0.7 million of interest income and $0.1 million of interest expense, respectively, related to the Swaps. Based on current interest rates, the Company expects to recognize interest expense of $0.2 million related to the Swaps in the next 12 months.

The fair values of the Company’s Swaps are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets with the corresponding offset recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The fair value of the Swaps was a net liability of $0.2 million at June 28, 2019 and a net asset of $1.9 million at December 31, 2018 , respectively. See the amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets within the table below:

10.	Share-Based Compensation

In 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved 3,473,435 shares of common stock to be reserved and authorized for issuance under the 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) to certain executive officers, senior management employees, and members of the Board of Directors. On February 27, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved an amendment to the 2014 Plan to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock by 4,000,000 shares. At June 28, 2019 , there were 1,395,673 shares of common stock that remained authorized and available for future grants.

The Company recognizes compensation expense based on estimated grant date fair values for all share-based awards issued to employees and directors, including restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance share units, which are restricted stock units with vesting conditions contingent upon achieving certain performance goals. Share-based compensation expense is reported in selling and administrative expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company recognized the following share-based compensation expense:



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2019		June 29, 2018		June 28, 2019		June 29, 2018

Restricted Stock Units

As of June 28, 2019 , there was $4.3 million of unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to 2,217,517 RSU awards, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $2.29 , that are expected to vest over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years . Included within the 2,681,896 RSU awards outstanding as of June 28, 2019 are 464,379 RSU awards for members of our Board of Directors which have vested and issuance of the shares has been deferred, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $4.49 .

In connection with the vesting of RSUs previously granted by the Company, a number of shares sufficient to fund statutory minimum tax withholding requirements was withheld from the total shares issued or released to the award holder (under the terms of the 2014 Plan, the shares are considered to have been issued and are not added back to the pool of shares available for grant). During the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 , there were 296,408 and 2,837 shares, respectively, withheld to satisfy the requirement. The withholding is treated as a reduction in additional paid-in capital in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ (deficit) equity.

Performance Share Units

Performance share unit awards based on Adjusted EBITDA performance metrics are payable at the end of their respective performance period in common stock. The Company expenses the cost of the performance-based share unit awards based on the fair value of the awards at the date of grant and the estimated achievement of the performance metric, ratably over the performance period of approximately three years .

As of June 28, 2019 , there was $1.4 million of unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to cumulative Adjusted EBITDA based vesting performance share unit awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years .

Adjusted EBITDA Vesting Awards - 2019 Grant

In the first quarter of 2019, the Company granted performance share unit awards based on achievement of an Adjusted EBITDA performance target during a three year measurement period ending December 31, 2021. The number of share units awarded can range from zero to 100% depending on achievement of a targeted performance metric, and are payable in common stock within a thirty day period following the end of the performance period.

Compensation expense of the Adjusted EBITDA based performance share unit awards is currently being recognized related to an estimated payout of 100% of target, or 704,500 shares.

Adjusted EBITDA Vesting Awards - 2017 Grant

In the third quarter of 2017, the Company granted performance share unit awards based on achievement of an Adjusted EBITDA performance target during a three year measurement period ending March 30, 2020. The number of share units awarded can range from zero to 100% depending on achievement of a targeted performance metric, and are payable in common stock within a thirty day period following the end of the performance period.

Compensation expense of the Adjusted EBITDA based performance share unit awards is currently being recognized related to an estimated payout of 100% of target, or 885,180 shares.

11.	Earnings per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Jason Industries’ common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing dilutive income (loss) per share, basic income (loss) per share is adjusted for the assumed issuance of all potentially dilutive share-based awards, including public warrants, RSUs, performance share units and convertible preferred stock.

The reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted loss per share calculation and the anti-dilutive shares are as follows:



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
(share amounts in thousands)	June 28, 2019			June 29, 2018			June 28, 2019			June 29, 2018

Total	21,731			20,438			21,390			20,044


⁽¹⁾	Public warrants (“warrants”) consist of warrants to purchase shares of Jason Industries common stock which were previously quoted on Nasdaq under the symbol “JASNW” until their expiration on June 30, 2019. Each outstanding warrant entitled the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $12.00 per share.

⁽²⁾

Includes the impact of 826 additional Series A Preferred Stock shares from a stock dividend declared on May 1, 2019 to be paid in additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock on July 1, 2019 . The Company included the preferred stock within the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of the declaration date. Conversion is presented at the voluntary conversion ratio of approximately 81.18 common shares for each preferred share.

Warrants are considered anti-dilutive and excluded when the exercise price exceeds the average market value of the Company’s common stock price during the applicable period. Performance share units are considered anti-dilutive if the performance targets upon which the issuance of the shares are contingent have not been achieved and the respective performance period has not been completed as of the end of the current period. Due to losses available to the Company’s common shareholders for each of the periods presented, potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculation because they were anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method, in accordance with ASC Topic 260.



12.	Income Taxes

At the end of each three month period, the Company estimates a base effective tax rate expected for the full year based on the most recent forecast of its pre-tax income (loss), permanent book and tax differences, and global tax planning strategies. The Company uses this base rate to provide for income taxes on a year-to-date basis, excluding the effect of significant, unusual, discrete or extraordinary items, and items that are reported net of their related tax effects. The Company records the tax effect of significant, unusual, discrete or extraordinary items, and items that are reported net of their tax effects in the period in which they occur.

Jason Industries, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts) (Unaudited)

The effective tax rate was (6.6)% and 57.0% for the three months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 , respectively. The effective tax rate was (8.1)% and 27.5% for the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 , respectively. The effective income tax rate for both 2019 and 2018 reflects the amount of taxable income or loss at the U.S. Federal statutory rate, taxable earnings or losses derived in foreign jurisdictions with tax rates that differ from the U.S. Federal statutory rate, the impact of the global intangible low taxed income (“GILTI”) and interest deduction limitation provisions contained in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”), and discrete items. The net discrete tax benefit was $0.1 million and the net discrete tax provision was $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2019 , respectively. The net discrete tax benefit was $0.5 million for both the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 .

The amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits was $2.2 million and $2.1 million as of June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, all of which would reduce the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized.

During the next twelve months, the Company believes it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will not change. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to tax matters in its tax provision. The Company has an immaterial amount of accrued interest and penalties that were recorded as a component of the income tax provision as of June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 .

14.	Business Segments, Geographic and Customer Information

In the first quarter of 2019, as part of a review of the Company’s organizational structure, the Company made certain strategic leadership changes which required a reassessment of reportable segments. Based on this evaluation, the Company changed how it makes operating decisions, assesses performance of the business, and allocates resources. As a result, the Company reduced the number of operating and reportable segments from four to three . Reportable segments include the former finishing segment renamed as the industrial segment, the former seating and components segments combined into one engineered components segment, and the former acoustics segment renamed as the fiber solutions segment. The prior year disclosures have been updated to conform with current year presentation. On April 1, 2019, the Company acquired Schaffner, which is a North American manufacturer of high-quality polishing and finishing products which are being manufactured and distributed within the industrial segment.

Net sales information relating to the Company’s reportable segments was as follows:



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2019		June 29, 2018		June 28, 2019		June 29, 2018
Industrial	$	54,994	$	55,454	$	104,731	$	109,432
Engineered Components	49,726		69,552		106,314		138,979
Fiber Solutions	33,583		43,418		69,236		87,267
Net Sales	$	138,303	$	168,424	$	280,281	$	335,678

The Company uses “Adjusted EBITDA” as the primary measure of profit or loss for the purposes of assessing the operating performance of its segments. The Company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, tax provision (benefit), depreciation and amortization. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, excluding the impact of operational restructuring charges and non-cash or non-operational losses or gains, including goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charges, gains or losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment, divestitures and extinguishment of debt, integration and other restructuring charges, transaction-related expenses, other professional fees, purchase accounting adjustments, lease expense associated with vacated facilities and non-cash share based compensation expense.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides a clear picture of the Company’s operating results by eliminating expenses and income that are not reflective of the underlying business performance. Certain corporate-level administrative expenses such as payroll and benefits, incentive compensation, travel, marketing, accounting, auditing and legal fees and certain other expenses are kept within the corporate results and are not allocated to the business segments. Shared expenses across the Company that directly relate to the performance of our three reportable segments are allocated to the segments. Adjusted EBITDA is used to facilitate a comparison of the Company’s operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to analyze the factors and trends affecting its segments. The Company’s internal plans, budgets and forecasts use Adjusted EBITDA as a key metric. In addition, this measure is used to evaluate its operating performance and segment operating performance and to determine the level of incentive compensation paid to its employees.

As the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as its primary measure of segment performance, GAAP on segment reporting requires the Company to include this measure in its discussion of segment operating results. The Company must also reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to operating results presented on a GAAP basis.

15.	Fair Value Measurements

Fair value of financial instruments

Current accounting guidance defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. It also specifies a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed market assumptions. In accordance with the guidance, fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:

• Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.


•	Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs or significant value-drivers are observable in active markets.


•	Level 3 — Model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value-drivers are unobservable.

Fair value measurements are classified according to the lowest level input or value-driver that is significant to the valuation. A measurement may therefore be classified within Level 3 even though there may be significant inputs that are readily observable.

The carrying amounts within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company assessed the amounts recorded under revolving loans, if any, and long-term debt and determined that the fair value of total debt was approximately $367.0 million at June 28, 2019 and $387.4 million at December 31, 2018 . The Company considers the inputs related to these estimations to be Level 2 fair value measurements as they are primarily based on quoted prices for the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facility.

The valuation of the Company’s derivative financial instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves. The Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and therefore the Company’s derivatives are classified within Level 2.



16.	Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation Matters

The Company is a party to various legal proceedings that have arisen in the normal course of its business. These legal proceedings typically include product liability, labor, and employment claims. The Company has recorded reserves for loss contingencies based on the specific circumstances of each case. Such reserves are recorded when it is probable that a loss has been incurred as of the balance sheet date, can be reasonably estimated and is not covered by insurance. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these contingencies will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Environmental Matters

At June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company held reserves of $1.0 million for environmental matters at one location. The ultimate cost of any remediation required will depend on the results of future investigation. Based upon available information, the Company believes that it has obtained and is in substantial compliance with those material environmental permits and approvals necessary to conduct its business. Based on the facts presently known, the Company does not expect environmental costs to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

17.	Subsequent Events

On August 11, 2019, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Fiber Solutions business to Motus Integrated Technologies for a purchase price of $85 million , which includes $5 million of consideration contingent on certain performance conditions. The sale transaction is anticipated to be completed during the third quarter of 2019, subject to customary closing conditions. As the divestiture represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results with the disposition of the entire Fiber Solutions reportable segment and an exit from the automotive acoustical products end market, the business will be presented and reported as discontinued operations beginning with the third quarter of 2019.

On August 12, 2019, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has engaged an advisor to explore strategic alternatives, including a potential sale of the Company.

See Note 2 , “ Revision of Previously Reported Financial Information ” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.

Overview

Jason Industries is a global industrial manufacturing company with significant market share positions in each of its three segments: industrial, engineered components, and fiber solutions. We provide critical components and manufacturing solutions to customers across a wide range of end markets, industries and geographies through our global network of 32 manufacturing facilities and 15 sales offices, administrative and/or warehouse facilities throughout the United States and 13 foreign countries. We have embedded relationships with long standing customers, superior scale and resources, and specialized capabilities to design and manufacture specialized products on which our customers rely. In the first quarter of 2019, as part of a review of our organizational structure, we made certain strategic leadership changes which required a reassessment of reportable segments. Based on this evaluation, we changed how we make operating decisions, assess performance of the business, and allocate resources. As a result, we reduced the number of operating and reportable segments from four to three: industrial, engineered components, and fiber solutions. The prior year disclosures have been updated to conform with current year presentation.

We focus on markets with sustainable growth characteristics and where we are or have the opportunity to become, the industry leader. Our industrial segment, formerly the finishing segment, focuses on the production of industrial brushes, polishing buffs and compounds, abrasives, and roller technology products that are used in a broad range of industrial and infrastructure applications. The engineered components segment, the combined former seating and components segments, designs, engineers, and manufactures seating, safety, and filtration products used in heavy industry (construction, agriculture, and material handling), turf care, power sports, rail and general industrial applications. The fiber solutions segment, formerly the acoustics segment, manufactures technical, non-woven fiber-based acoustical, thermal, and structural products serving automotive and other end markets.

During the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 , approximately 30% and 29% , respectively, of our net sales were from outside of the United States based on the country of origin of the final sale with the external customer. As a diversified, global business, our operations are affected by worldwide, regional and industry-specific economic and political factors. Our geographic and industry diversity, as well as the wide range of our products, help mitigate the impact of industry or economic fluctuations. Given the broad range of products manufactured and industries and geographies served, management primarily uses general economic trends to predict the overall outlook for the Company. Our individual businesses monitor key competitors and customers, including to the extent possible their sales, to gauge relative performance and the outlook for the future.

The Three and Six Months Ended June 28, 2019 Compared with the Three and Six Months Ended June 29, 2018

Net sales . Net sales were $138.3 million for the three months ended June 28, 2019 , a decrease of $30.1 million , or 17.9% , compared with $168.4 million for the three months ended June 29, 2018 , reflecting decreased net sales in the engineered components segment of $19.8 million , the fiber solutions segment of $9.8 million and the industrial segment of $0.5 million . The $19.8 million decrease in the engineered components segment was partially due to an $8.0 million decrease related to the exit from non-core product lines for smart utility meter subassemblies. See “Segment Financial Data” within Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis,” for further discussion on net sales for each segment.

Net sales were $280.3 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 , a decrease of $55.4 million , or 16.5% , compared with $335.7 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 , reflecting decreased net sales in the engineered components segment of $32.7 million , the fiber solutions segment of $18.0 million and the industrial segment of $4.7 million . The $32.7 million decrease in the engineered components segment was partially due to an $13.7 million decrease related to the exit from non-core product lines for smart utility meter subassemblies. See “Segment Financial Data” within Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis,” for further discussion on net sales for each segment.

On April 1, 2019, the Company acquired Schaffner. Schaffner’s results of operations are included within the industrial segment and the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations since the date of acquisition. Net sales from Schaffner were $5.3 million for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2019 . See Note 3 , “ Acquisition ” in the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on the Schaffner acquisition.

Changes in foreign currency exchange rates compared with the U.S. dollar had a net negative impact of $2.0 million on consolidated net sales during the three months ended June 28, 2019 compared with 2018 , negatively impacting the industrial segment’s net sales by $2.0 million . This was due principally to the net strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro in the three months ended June 28, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 29, 2018 . Changes in foreign currency exchange rates compared with the U.S. dollar had a net negative impact of $4.7 million on consolidated net sales during the six months ended June 28, 2019 compared with 2018 , negatively impacting the industrial segment’s net sales by $4.7 million . This was due principally to the net strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro for the first six months of 2019 compared to the first six months of 2018 .

Cost of goods sold . Cost of goods sold was $114.3 million for the three months ended June 28, 2019 , compared with $131.3 million for the three months ended June 29, 2018 . The decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily due to lower sales volumes across all segments, lower manufacturing costs of $6.0 million in the engineered components segment due to the exit from non-core product lines for smart utility meter subassemblies, a $1.5 million decrease related to foreign currency exchange rates, reduced material usage and labor costs as a result of continuous improvement programs in the engineered components and fiber solutions segments and reduced costs resulting from our global cost reduction and restructuring program as a result of the closure of the Richmond, Indiana facility in the fiber solutions segment. The decrease was partially offset by higher manufacturing costs in the industrial segment due to the Schaffner acquisition of $4.2 million, lower operational efficiencies on lower volumes in the fiber solutions segment, material and labor inefficiencies related to sales volume declines in the engineered components and industrial segments, raw material inflation in the engineered components and industrial segments, and accelerated depreciation expense of $1.5 million in the engineered components segment related to facility consolidation.

Cost of goods sold was $227.7 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 , compared with $262.9 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 . The decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily due to lower sales volumes across all segments, lower manufacturing costs of $10.4 million in the engineered components segment due to the exit from non-core product lines for smart utility meter subassemblies, a $3.5 million decrease related to foreign currency exchange rates, reduced material usage and labor costs as a result of continuous improvement programs in the engineered components and fiber solutions segments and reduced costs resulting from our global cost reduction and restructuring program as a result of the closure of the Richmond, Indiana facility in the fiber solutions segment. The decrease was partially offset by higher manufacturing costs in the industrial segment due to the Schaffner acquisition of $4.2 million, lower operational efficiencies on lower volumes in the fiber solutions segment, material and labor inefficiencies related to sales volume declines in the engineered components and industrial segments, raw material inflation across all segments, and accelerated depreciation expense of $1.5 million in the engineered components segment related to facility consolidation.

Gross profit . For the reasons described above, gross profit was $24.0 million for the three months ended June 28, 2019 , compared with $37.1 million for the three months ended June 29, 2018 and $52.6 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 , compared with $72.8 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 .

Selling and administrative expenses . Selling and administrative expenses were $26.4 million for the three months ended June 28, 2019 , compared with $28.9 million for the three months ended June 29, 2018 , a decrease of $2.5 million . The decrease is primarily due to decreased incentive compensation, the acceleration of amortization expense of $1.2 million on intangible assets in the engineered components segment related to the exit from non-core product lines for smart utility meter subassemblies in 2018 and a $0.5 million decrease related to foreign currency exchange rates. The decrease was partially offset

by $0.8 million of transaction-related expenses, higher selling and administrative costs in the industrial segment due to the Schaffner acquisition of $1.1 million, $0.3 million of integration costs related to acquisitions and an increase in share-based compensation expense of $0.2 million due to restricted stock units granted in May 2018 and March 2019.

Selling and administrative expenses were $51.6 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 compared with $56.4 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 , a decrease of $4.8 million . The decrease is primarily due to decreased incentive compensation, the acceleration of amortization expense of $2.3 million on intangible assets in the engineered components segment related to the exit from non-core product lines for smart utility meter subassemblies in 2018 and a $1.1 million decrease related to foreign currency exchange rates. The decrease was partially offset by $1.1 million of transaction-related expenses, higher selling and administrative costs in the industrial segment due to the Schaffner acquisition of $1.1 million, an increase in share-based compensation expense of $0.9 million due to restricted stock units granted in May 2018 and March 2019 and $0.3 million of integration costs related to acquisitions.

Loss on disposals of property, plant and equipment - net . Loss on disposals of property, plant and equipment - net for both the three months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 was $0.0 million . Loss on disposals of property, plant and equipment - net for the six months ended June 28, 2019 was $0.0 million compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 . The loss on disposals of property, plant and equipment - net for the six months ended June 29, 2018 includes $0.2 million from the disposition of equipment in connection with the consolidation of two U.S. facilities in the engineered components segment.

Restructuring . Restructuring costs were $1.2 million for the three months ended June 28, 2019 compared with $1.5 million for the three months ended June 29, 2018 . Restructuring costs were $2.8 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 compared with $2.1 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 . During 2019, such costs included severance costs in corporate and the industrial segment related to the segment reorganization in the first quarter of 2019 and work force reductions in the second quarter of 2019 in response to declining end market demand. Other restructuring costs included transitional costs of moving production to U.S. facilities as a result of the closure of a U.K. facility in the engineered components segment and move costs related to the closure of a U.S. facility in the fiber solutions segment. During 2018, such costs were primarily move costs related to the consolidation of two U.S. facilities in the engineered components segment and the closure of a U.S. facility in the fiber solutions segment.

Interest expense . Interest expense was $8.4 million for both the three months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 . The effective interest rate on the Company’s total outstanding indebtedness for the three months ended June 28, 2019 was 8.3% as compared to 8.2% for the three months ended June 29, 2018 .

Interest expense was $16.6 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 compared with $16.4 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 . The increase in interest expense primarily relates to higher variable interest rates for the six months ended June 28, 2019 as compared to the six months ended June 29, 2018 , partially offset by the decrease in outstanding long-term debt balances. The effective interest rate on the Company’s total outstanding indebtedness for the six months ended June 28, 2019 was 8.4% as compared to 8.1% for the six months ended June 29, 2018 .

See “Segment Financial Data” within Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis,” for further discussion on Adjusted EBITDA for each segment.

Key Measures the Company Uses to Evaluate Its Performance

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA . We use “Adjusted EBITDA” as the primary measure of profit or loss for the purposes of assessing the operating performance of our segments. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, excluding the impact of operational restructuring charges and non-cash or non-operational losses or gains, including goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charges, gains or losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment, divestitures and extinguishment of debt, integration and other restructuring charges, transaction-related expenses, other professional fees, purchase accounting adjustments, lease expense associated with vacated facilities and non-cash share based compensation expense.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides a more clear picture of our operating results by eliminating expenses and income that are not reflective of the underlying business performance. We use this metric to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to analyze the factors and trends affecting our segments. Our internal plans, budgets and forecasts use Adjusted EBITDA as a key metric and we use this measure to evaluate our operating performance and segment operating performance and to determine the level of incentive compensation paid to its employees.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities (defined in Note 9 , “ Debt and Hedging Instruments ”, and below) definition of EBITDA excludes income of partially owned affiliates, unless such earnings have been received in cash.

Set forth below is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss:

Restructuring includes costs associated with exit or disposal activities as defined by GAAP related to facility consolidation, including one-time employee termination benefits, costs to close facilities and relocate employees, and costs to terminate contracts other than financing leases in 2018 and financing and operating leases in 2019. See Note 5 , “ Restructuring Costs ” of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.


⁽²⁾	Transaction-related expenses primarily consist of professional fees and other expenses related to acquisitions, divestitures and financing activities.


⁽³⁾	During the three and six months ended June 28, 2019 , integration and other restructuring costs includes $0.3 million of integration costs related to an acquisition in the industrial segment and $0.2 million of lease expense for a facility vacated in connection with plant consolidations in the fiber solutions segment.

During the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 , integration and other restructuring costs of $1.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively, were incurred associated with a force majeure incident at a supplier in the engineered components segment that resulted in incremental costs to maintain production. Such costs are not included in restructuring for GAAP purposes and were subsequently recovered through insurance during the remainder of 2018. The integration and other restructuring costs were partially offset in both the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 by a $0.4 million settlement gain on proceeds from a supplier claim in the engineered components segment associated with periods prior to the Company’s go public business combination.


⁽⁴⁾	Represents share-based compensation expense for awards under the Company’s 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan. See Note 10 , “ Share-Based Compensation ” of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.


⁽⁵⁾	Loss on disposals of property, plant and equipment - net for the six months ended June 29, 2018 includes a loss of $0.2 million from the disposition of equipment in connection with the consolidation of two U.S. facilities in the engineered components segment.

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from our operations, available cash and borrowings under our U.S. and foreign credit facilities. As of June 28, 2019 , we had $27.9 million of available cash, $10.0 million of additional borrowings available under the Revolving Credit Facility portion of our U.S. credit agreement, and $12.6 million available under revolving loan facilities that we maintain outside the U.S. As of June 28, 2019 , available borrowings under our U.S. Revolving Credit Facility were reduced by outstanding letters of credit of $4.9 million . Included in our consolidated cash balance of $27.9 million at June 28, 2019 , is cash of $11.3 million held at our non-U.S. operations. These funds, with some restrictions and tax implications, are available for repatriation as deemed necessary by us. Our U.S. credit agreement and foreign revolving loan facilities are available for working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes. We believe our existing cash on hand, expected future cash flows from operating activities, and additional borrowings available under our U.S. and foreign credit facilities provide sufficient resources to fund ongoing operating requirements as well as future capital expenditures and debt service requirements.

Indebtedness

As of June 28, 2019 , our total outstanding indebtedness of $392.0 million was comprised of term loans outstanding under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities of $375.4 million (net of a debt discount of $2.2 million and deferred financing costs of $3.3 million ), various foreign bank term loans and revolving loan facilities of $16.0 million and finance lease obligations of $0.6 million . No borrowings were outstanding under the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility portion of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities as of June 28, 2019 .

As of December 31, 2018 , our total outstanding indebtedness of $393.8 million was comprised of term loans outstanding under its Senior Secured Credit Facilities of $375.7 million (net of a debt discount of $2.7 million and deferred financing costs of $4.1 million ), various foreign bank term loans and revolving loan facilities of $17.5 million and finance lease obligations of $0.6 million . No borrowings were outstanding under the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility portion of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities as of December 31, 2018 .

We maintain various bank term loan and revolving loan facilities outside the U.S. for local operating and investing needs. Borrowings under these facilities totaled $16.0 million as of June 28, 2019 , including borrowings of $13.8 million incurred by our subsidiaries in Germany, compared to $17.5 million as of December 31, 2018 , including borrowings of $15.0 million incurred by our subsidiaries in Germany. The foreign debt obligations in Germany primarily relate to term loans within our industrial segment of $13.8 million at June 28, 2019 and $15.0 million at December 31, 2018 . The borrowings bear interest at fixed and variable rates ranging from 2.1% to 4.7% and are subject to repayment in varying amounts through 2025 .

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

General . On June 30, 2014, Jason Incorporated, as the borrower, entered into (i) the First Lien Credit Agreement, with Jason Partners Holdings Inc., Jason Holdings, Inc. I, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto and the several banks and other financial institutions or entities from time to time party thereto (the “First Lien Credit Agreement”) and (ii) the Second Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2014, with Jason Partners Holdings Inc., Jason Holdings, Inc. I, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto and the several banks and other financial institutions or entities from time to time party thereto (the “Second Lien Credit Agreement” and, together with the First Lien Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”). Jason Incorporated, Jason Partners Holdings, Inc., and Jason Holdings, Inc. I are indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Jason Industries, Inc.

The First Lien Credit Agreement, as amended, provides for (i) term loans in the principal amount of $310.0 million (the “First Lien Term Facility” and the loans thereunder the “First Lien Term Loans”), of which $291.0 million is outstanding as of June 28, 2019 , and (ii) a revolving loan of up to $25.5 million (including revolving loans, a $10.0 million swingline loan sublimit, and a $12.5 million letter of credit sublimit) (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), in each case under the first lien senior secured loan facilities (the “First Lien Credit Facilities”). The Second Lien Credit Agreement provides for term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $110.0 million , of which $89.9 million is outstanding as of June 28, 2019 , under the second lien senior secured term loan facility (the “Second Lien Term Facility” and the loans thereunder the “Second Lien Term Loans” and, the Second Lien Term Facility together with the First Lien Credit Facilities, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). During the second quarter of 2019, we amended our Revolving Credit Facility to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2020. The amendment reduced the borrowing capacity from $30.0 million to $25.5 million . In connection with the amendment, we paid deferred financing costs of $0.3 million which have been recorded within other assets - net within the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Revolving Credit Facility matures December 31, 2020, the First Lien Term Loans mature June 30, 2021 and the Second Lien Term Loans mature June 30, 2022. The principal amount of the First Lien Term Loans amortizes in equal $0.8

million installments, with the balance payable at maturity. Neither the Revolving Credit Facility nor the Second Lien Term Loans amortize, however, each is repayable in full at maturity.

Security Interests . In connection with the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, Jason Partners Holdings Inc., Jason Holdings, Inc. I, Jason Incorporated and certain of Jason Incorporated’s subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), entered into a (i) First Lien Security Agreement (the “First Lien Security Agreement”), dated as of June 30, 2014, and (ii) a Second Lien Security Agreement (the “Second Lien Security Agreement”, together with the First Lien Security Agreement, the “Security Agreements”), dated as of June 30, 2014. Pursuant to the Security Agreements, amounts borrowed under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and any swap agreements and cash management arrangements provided by any lender party to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or any of its affiliates are secured (i) with respect to the First Lien Credit Facilities, on a first priority basis and (ii) with respect to the Second Lien Term Facility, on a second priority basis, by a perfected security interest in substantially all of Jason Incorporated’s, Jason Partners Holdings Inc.’s, Jason Holdings, Inc. I’s and each Subsidiary Guarantor’s tangible and intangible assets (subject to certain exceptions), including U.S. registered intellectual property and all of the capital stock of each of Jason Incorporated’s direct and indirect wholly-owned material Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Credit Agreements) (limited, in the case of foreign subsidiaries, to 65% of the capital stock of first tier foreign subsidiaries). In addition, pursuant to the Credit Agreements, Jason Partners Holdings Inc., Jason Holdings, Inc. I and the Subsidiary Guarantors guaranteed amounts borrowed under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

Interest Rate and Fees . At our election, the interest rate per annum applicable to the loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities is based on a fluctuating rate of interest determined by reference to either (i) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (a) the administrative agent’s prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% or (c) the Eurocurrency rate applicable for an interest period of one month plus 1.00% , plus an applicable margin equal to (x) 3.50% in the case of the First Lien Term Loans, (y) 2.25% in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility or (z) 7.00% in the case of the Second Lien Term Loans or (ii) a Eurocurrency rate determined by reference to LIBOR, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements, plus an applicable margin equal to (x) 4.50% in the case of the First Lien Term Loans, (y) 3.25% in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility or (z) 8.00% in the case of the Second Lien Term Loans. Borrowings under the First Lien Term Facility and Second Lien Term Facility are subject to a floor of 1.00% in the case of Eurocurrency loans. The applicable margin for loans under the Revolving Credit Facility may be subject to adjustment based upon Jason Incorporated’s consolidated first lien net leverage ratio.

Interest Rate Hedge Contracts. To manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, we entered into forward interest rate swap agreements (“Swaps”) in 2015 with notional values totaling $210.0 million at June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . The Swaps have been designated by us as cash flow hedges, and effectively fix the variable portion of interest rates on variable rate term loan borrowings at a rate of approximately 2.08% prior to financing spreads and related fees. The Swaps had a forward start date of December 30, 2016 and have an expiration date of June 30, 2020. For the three months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 , the Company recognized $0.3 million and $0.1 million of interest income, respectively, related to the Swaps. For the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 , we recognized $0.7 million of interest income and $0.1 million of interest expense, respectively, related to the Swaps. Based on current interest rates, we would expect to recognize interest expense of $0.2 million related to the Swaps in the next 12 months.

The fair values of our Swaps are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets with the corresponding offset recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The fair values of the Swaps was a net liability of $0.2 million at June 28, 2019 and a net asset of $1.9 million at December 31, 2018 , respectively. See the amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets within the table below:

Mandatory Prepayment . Subject to certain exceptions, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities are subject to mandatory prepayments in amounts equal to: (1) a percentage of the net cash proceeds from any non-ordinary course sale or other disposition of assets (including as a result of casualty or condemnation) by Jason Incorporated or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in excess of a certain amount and subject to customary reinvestment provisions and certain other exceptions; (2) 100% of the net cash proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of debt by Jason Incorporated or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than indebtedness permitted by the Senior Secured Credit Facilities); and (3) 75% (with step-downs to 50%, 25% and 0% based upon achievement of specified consolidated first lien net leverage ratios under the First Lien Credit Facilities and specified consolidated total net leverage ratios under the Second Lien Term Facility) of annual excess cash flow,

as defined, of Jason Incorporated and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Other than the payment of customary “breakage” costs, Jason Incorporated may voluntarily prepay outstanding loans at any time. At June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , there was no required mandatory excess cash flow prepayment required under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

Covenants . The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain a number of customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of Jason Incorporated and its Restricted Subsidiaries to: incur additional indebtedness (including guarantee obligations); incur liens; engage in mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions; sell assets; pay dividends and make other payments in respect of capital stock; make acquisitions, investments, loans and advances; pay and modify the terms of certain indebtedness; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; enter into negative pledge clauses and clauses restricting subsidiary distributions; and change its line of business, in each case, subject to certain limited exceptions. To comply with these covenants, Jason Incorporated and its Restricted Subsidiaries are limited in the amount of cash that can be distributed to Jason Industries, Inc. in the form of dividends, loans or other distributions. As of June 28, 2019 , this limit was $15.5 million .

In addition, under the Revolving Credit Facility, if the aggregate outstanding amount of all revolving loans, swingline loans and certain letter of credit obligations exceed $10.0 million at the end of any fiscal quarter, Jason Incorporated and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be required to not exceed a consolidated first lien net leverage ratio, currently specified at 4.50 to 1.00 , with a decrease to 4.25 to 1.00 on December 31, 2019 and a decrease to 4.00 to 1.00 on June 26, 2020 and thereafter. If such outstanding amounts do not exceed $10.0 million at the end of any fiscal quarter, no financial covenants are applicable. As of June 28, 2019 , the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio was 4.88 to 1.00 on a pro forma trailing twelve-month basis calculated in accordance with the respective provisions of the Credit Agreements which exclude the Second Lien Term Loans from the calculation of net debt (numerator) and allow the inclusion of certain pro forma adjustments and exclusion of certain specified or nonrecurring costs and expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA (denominator). Because the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio at June 28, 2019 exceeded 4.50 to 1.00 , borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, including letters of credit in excess of $5.0 million , would be limited to a total of $10.0 million . At June 28, 2019 , we had letters of credit outstanding of $4.9 million and there were no outstanding borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 28, 2019 , we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our credit agreements.

Events of Default . The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain customary events of default, including nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts; material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty when made; violation of a covenant; cross-default to material indebtedness; bankruptcy events; inability to pay debts or attachment; material unsatisfied judgments; actual or asserted invalidity of any security document; and a change of control. Failure to comply with these provisions of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (subject to certain grace periods) could, absent a waiver or an amendment from the lenders under such agreement, restrict the availability of the Revolving Credit Facility and permit the acceleration of all outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreements.

Series A Preferred Stock

Holders of the 42,247 shares of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors, cumulative dividends at the rate of 8.0% per annum (the dividend rate) on the $1,000 liquidation preference per share of the Series A Preferred Stock, payable quarterly in arrears on each dividend payment date. Dividends shall be paid in cash or, at our option, in additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock or a combination thereof, and are payable on January 1 , April 1 , July 1 , and October 1 of each year, commencing on the first such date after the date of the first issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock.

We paid the following dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock in additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock during the six months ended June 28, 2019 :



(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
Payment Date	Record Date	Amount Per Share	Total Dividends Paid	Preferred Shares Issued
January 1, 2019	November 15, 2018	$20.00	$796	794
April 1, 2019	February 15, 2019	$20.00	$812	809

On May 1, 2019 , we announced a $20.00 per share dividend on our Series A Preferred Stock to be paid in additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock on July 1, 2019 to holders of record on May 15, 2019 . As of June 28, 2019 , we have recorded the 826 additional Series A Preferred Stock shares declared for the dividend of $0.8 million within preferred stock in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Seasonality and Working Capital

We use net operating working capital (“NOWC”), a non-GAAP measure, as a percentage of the previous twelve months of net sales as a key indicator of working capital management. We define this metric as the sum of trade accounts receivable and inventories less trade accounts payable. NOWC as a percentage of trailing twelve month net sales was 15.9% as of June 28, 2019 , 12.5% as of December 31, 2018 and 14.5% as of June 29, 2018 .

Set forth below is a table summarizing NOWC as of June 28, 2019 , December 31, 2018 and June 29, 2018 :



(in thousands)	June 28, 2019			December 31, 2018			June 29, 2018
Accounts receivable - net	$	70,179		60,559			$	79,436
Inventories	67,408			63,747			68,424
Accounts payable	(48,784		)	(47,497		)	(55,652		)
NOWC	$	88,803		$	76,809		$	92,208

The table below reconciles our NOWC from our working capital:



(in thousands)	June 28, 2019			December 31, 2018			June 29, 2018
Working Capital	$	87,400		$	110,276		$	114,452
Less: Cash and cash equivalents	(27,911		)	(58,169		)	(46,232		)
Less: Other current assets	(12,112		)	(13,664		)	(16,344		)
Add: Current portion long-term debt	6,576			6,544			6,652
Add: Current portion operating lease liabilities	7,686			—			—
Add: Accrued compensation and employee benefits	12,063			14,452			17,322
Add: Accrued interest	80			89			79
Add: Other current liabilities	15,021			17,281			16,279
NOWC	$	88,803		$	76,809		$	92,208

In overall dollar terms, our NOWC is generally lower at the end of the calendar year due to reduced sales activity around the holiday season. NOWC generally peaks at the end of the first quarter as we experience high seasonal demand from certain customers, particularly those serving the motorcycle and lawn and turf care markets to fill the supply chain for the spring season. There are, however, variations in the seasonal demands from year to year depending on weather, customer inventory levels, customer planning, and model year changes. We historically generate approximately 51% - 55% of our annual net sales in the first half of the year.

NOWC as a percentage of trailing twelve month net sales was unfavorably impacted by approximately 0.7% as of June 28, 2019 related to the April 1, 2019 acquisition of Schaffner. NOWC as a percentage of trailing twelve month net sales was favorably impacted by approximately 0.3% and 0.5% as of June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, related to the exit of the non-core smart utility meter subassemblies product line. NOWC as a percentage of trailing twelve month sales was favorably impacted by approximately 0.1% as of June 29, 2018 related to Acoustics Europe Sales, which was sold on August 30, 2017.

Short-Term and Long-Term Liquidity Requirements

Our ability to make principal and interest payments on borrowings under our U.S. and foreign credit facilities and our ability to fund planned capital expenditures will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other conditions. Based on our current level of operations, we believe that our existing cash balances and expected cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our operating requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, we may require borrowings under our credit facilities and alternative forms of financings or investments to achieve our longer-term strategic plans.

Capital expenditures during the six months ended June 28, 2019 were $6.3 million , or 2.3% of net sales. Capital expenditures for 2019 are expected to be approximately 2.0% to 2.5% of net sales, but could vary from that depending on business performance, growth opportunities, project activity and the amount of assets we lease instead of purchase. We finance our annual capital requirements with funds generated from operations.

Cash Flows (Used in) Provided by Operating Activities

Cash flows used in operating activities were $8.9 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $11.1 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 , a decrease of $20.0 million . The decrease was primarily driven by lower operating profit across all segments principally as a result of lower sales volume for the six months ended June 28, 2019 as compared to the six months ended June 29, 2018 . In addition, the decrease resulted from lower accruals for freight and customer rebates due to timing of payments and a lower incentive compensation accrual as a result of lower projected attainment percentages. The decrease was partially offset by $0.7 million of cash related to dividends from our joint venture received during the six months ended June 28, 2019 .

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Cash flows used in investing activities were $16.6 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 compared with $6.9 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 . The increase in cash flows used in investing activities was primarily the result of cash used for the acquisition of Schaffner of $10.5 million , net of cash acquired, partially offset by lower capital expenditures of $0.6 million compared to the prior year period.

Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities

Cash flows used in financing activities were $4.6 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 compared with $6.4 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 . The decrease in cash flows used in financing activities was driven by lower payments of $2.5 million on First and Second Lien Term Loans and lower payments of deferred financing costs of $0.3 million . This decrease was partially offset by remittance of $0.7 million of value added tax during the first quarter of 2019 related to the December 2018 building sale of our U.K. facility.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization totaled $20.7 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 , compared with $21.9 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 . Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 28, 2019 is lower than the prior period primarily due to $2.3 million of accelerated intangible amortization expense recorded for a customer relationship intangible asset to reflect the exit of the non-core smart utility meter product lines in the engineered components segment during 2018, partially offset by $1.5 million of accelerated depreciation expense recorded in the engineered components segment during 2019.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures totaled $6.3 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 , compared with $6.9 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 .

Contractual Obligations

There are no material changes to the disclosures regarding contractual obligations made in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 .

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of the date of this report, other than changes related to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard as described in Note 7 , “ Leases ”, to the condensed consolidated financial statements, there are no material changes to the disclosures regarding off-balance sheet arrangements made in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 .

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Refer to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on March 13, 2019 for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q) for information with respect to our critical accounting policies, which we believe could have the most significant effect on our reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management. Management believes that as of June 28, 2019 and during the period from March 30, 2019 through June 28, 2019 , there has been no material change to this information.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 , “ Description of Business and Basis of Presentation ” under the heading “Recently issued accounting standards” of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates and, to a lesser extent, commodities. To reduce such risks, we selectively use financial instruments and other proactive management techniques. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to clearly defined policies and procedures, which strictly prohibit the use of financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Currency Risk: We have manufacturing, sales and distribution operations around the world; therefore, exchange rates impact the U.S. Dollar (“USD”) value of our reported earnings, our investments in our foreign subsidiaries and the intercompany transactions with these subsidiaries. Approximately $65.3 million , or 23% , of our sales originated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar during the first six months of 2019 . As a result, fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies against the USD, particularly the Euro, may have a material impact on our reported results. Revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into USD using average exchange rates in effect during the period. Consequently, as the value of the USD changes relative to the currencies of our major markets, our reported results vary. For the six months ended June 28, 2019 , sales denominated in Euros approximated $48.7 million . Therefore, with a 10% increase or decrease in the value of the Euro in relation to the USD, our translated net sales (assuming all other factors are unchanged) would increase or decrease by $4.9 million , respectively, and the change in our net (loss) income would increase or decrease by approximately $0.4 million . The net assets and liabilities of our non-U.S. dollar denominated subsidiaries, which totaled approximately $162.3 million as of June 28, 2019 , are translated into USD at the exchange rates in effect at the end of the period. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded in shareholders’ (deficit) equity as cumulative translation adjustments. The cumulative translation adjustments recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss at June 28, 2019 resulted in a decrease to shareholders’ deficit of $23.8 million . Transactional foreign currency exchange exposure results primarily from the purchase of products, services or equipment from affiliates or third party suppliers where the purchase value is significant, denominated in another currency and to be settled following the initial transaction date, and from the repayment of intercompany loans between subsidiaries using different currencies. We periodically identify areas where we do not have naturally offsetting currency positions and then may purchase hedging instruments to protect against potential currency exposures. As of June 28, 2019 , we did not have any significant foreign currency hedging instruments in place nor did we have any significant sales or purchase commitments in currencies outside of the functional currencies of the operations responsible for satisfying such commitments. All long-term debt is held in the functional currencies of the operations that are responsible for the repayment of such obligations. As of June 28, 2019 , long-term debt denominated in currencies other than the USD totaled approximately $15.0 million .

Interest Rate Risk: We utilize a combination of short-term and long-term debt to finance our operations and are exposed to interest rate risk on our outstanding floating rate debt instruments, which bear interest at rates that fluctuate with changes in certain short-term prevailing interest rates. Borrowings under U.S. credit facilities bear interest at rates tied to either the “administrative agent’s prime rate, the federal funds effective rate,” the Eurocurrency rate, or a Eurocurrency rate determined by reference to LIBOR, subject to an established floor. Until the second quarter of 2018, applicable interest rates were lower than the designated floor in our Senior Secured Credit Facilities; therefore, until that point, interest rates were not subject to change. However, now that interest rates exceed the established floor, a 25 basis point increase or decrease in the applicable interest rates on our variable rate debt would increase or decrease annual interest expense by approximately $0.4 million , net of the impact of interest rate swaps discussed in the paragraph below.

As of June 28, 2019 , we have entered into various interest rate swaps in order to mitigate a portion of the variable rate interest exposure. We are counterparty to certain interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $210.0 million entered into in November 2015. These swaps are scheduled to mature in June 2020. Under the terms of the agreement, we swapped three month LIBOR rates for a fixed interest rate, resulting in the payment of a fixed LIBOR rate of 2.08% on a notional amount of $210.0 million . As of June 28, 2019 , LIBOR exceeded 2.08% ; therefore, assuming interest rates remain above 2.08% , a 25 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates would increase or decrease annual interest expense by $0.4 million .

Commodity risk: We source a wide variety of materials and components from a network of global suppliers. While such materials are generally available from numerous suppliers, commodity raw materials, such as steel, aluminum, copper, fiber, foam chemicals, plastic resin, vinyl and cotton sheeting are subject to price fluctuations, which could have a negative impact on our results. We strive to pass along such commodity price increases to customers to avoid profit margin erosion and utilize value analysis and value engineering initiatives to further mitigate the impact of commodity raw material price fluctuations as improved efficiencies across all locations are achieved. As of June 28, 2019 , we did not have any commodity hedging instruments in place.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)), that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Because of inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 28, 2019 . Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 28, 2019 , our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable level of assurance, due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting discussed below.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We did not maintain effective internal controls over the accounting for the recoverability of deferred tax assets. Specifically, the internal controls to assess the recoverability of a deferred tax asset for disallowed interest expense were not performed at the appropriate level of precision. This control deficiency resulted in the overstatement of the tax provision and net deferred tax liabilities as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018. As a result of this error, we restated our previously reported annual financial statements for the year and quarter ended December 31, 2018 on Form 10-K/A and revised the Company's previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended June 29, 2018. Additionally, this control deficiency could result in additional misstatements of the aforementioned balances that would result in a material misstatement to our annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Remediation Plan

During the second quarter of 2019, in conjunction with the preparation of the interim tax provision, the Company has enhanced the control activities related to the analysis of the recoverability of our deferred tax assets. The enhancements include (1) expanded consultation with third party specialists on complex income tax accounting matters, and (2) enhanced documentation regarding the considerations and accounting guidance evaluated as part of the analysis supporting the recoverability of our deferred tax assets to allow for a more precise review process. We believe this remediation plan will effectively remediate the material weakness, however, due to the inherent differences in the process of accounting for income taxes during an interim versus an annual period, the Company's process for remediating the material weakness will not be deemed complete until management has concluded, through testing, that such control is operating effectively in conjunction with the preparation of the Company’s tax provision for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The remediation efforts related to the material weakness are considered a change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 28, 2019 that has materially affected the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Except as stated above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the quarter ended June 28, 2019 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
