ALBANY INTERNATIONAL CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results for such periods. Albany International Corp. (Albany, the Registrant, the Company, we, us, or our) consolidates the financial results of its subsidiaries for all periods presented. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in Albany International Corp.’s Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Albany International Corp.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted the provisions of ASC 326Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL), using the effective date (or modified retrospective) approach for transition. Under this transition method, periods prior to 2020 were not restated. The pre-tax cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard was an increase in credit loss reserves of $1.8 million, primarily for Accounts receivable and Contract assets. Including tax effects, Retained earnings was reduced by $1.4 million as a result of transitioning to the new standard. The effect of the application of CECL during the first quarter of 2020 is further described in Notes 11 and 12.

2. Reportable Segments
In accordance with applicable disclosure guidance for enterprise segments and related information, the internal organization that is used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance is used as the basis for our reportable segments.
The Machine Clothing (“MC”) segment supplies permeable and impermeable belts used in the manufacture of paper, paperboard, tissue and towel, nonwovens, fiber cement and several other industrial applications. We sell our MC products directly to customer end-users in countries across the globe. Our products, manufacturing processes, and distribution channels for MC are substantially the same in each region of the world in which we operate.
We design, manufacture, and market paper machine clothing (used in the manufacturing of paper, paperboard, tissue and towel) for each section of the paper machine and for every grade of paper. Paper machine clothing products are customized, consumable products of technologically sophisticated design that utilize polymeric materials in a complex structure.
The Albany Engineered Composites (“AEC”) segment, including Albany Safran Composites, LLC (“ASC”), in which our customer SAFRAN Group (“Safran”) owns a 10 percent noncontrolling interest, provides highly engineered, advanced composite structures to customers in the commercial and defense aerospace industries. AEC’s largest program relates to CFM International’s LEAP engine. Under this program, AEC through ASC, is the exclusive supplier of advanced composite fan blades and cases under a long-term supply contract. The manufacturing spaces used for the production of parts under the long-term supply agreement are owned by Safran, and leased to the Company at either a market rent or a minimal cost. All lease expense is reimbursable by Safran to the Company due to the cost-plus nature of the supply agreement. In the fourth quarter of 2019, Safran leased manufacturing space from AEC for the GE9X program. Rent paid by Safran under this lease amounted to $0.7 million for the first nine months of 2020. AEC Net sales to Safran, substantially all of which were through ASC, were $73.6 million and $175.2 million in the first nine months of 2020 and 2019, respectively.
The total of Accounts receivable, Contract assets and Noncurrent receivables due from Safran amounted to $119.8 million and $114.5 million as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Other significant programs by AEC include the F-35, Boeing 787, Sikorsky CH-53K and JASSM, as well as the fan case for the GE9X engine. In 2019, approximately 25 percent of AEC sales were related to U.S. government contracts or programs.

There were no material changes in the total assets of the reportable segments in the first nine months of 2020.
The table below presents restructuring costs by reportable segment (also see Note 5):

Total$710 $(244)$4,189 $1,139 

Products and services provided under long-term contracts represent a significant portion of sales in the Albany Engineered Composites segment and we account for these contracts using the percentage of completion (actual cost to estimated cost) method. That method requires significant judgment and estimation, which could be considerably different if the underlying circumstances were to change. When adjustments in estimated contract revenues or costs are required, any changes from prior estimates are included in earnings in the period the change occurs. In 2020, net adjustments to the estimated profitability of long-term contracts increased gross profit by $3.5 million and $9.5 million for the three and nine month periods, respectively, ended September 30, 2020. In 2019, net adjustments to the estimated profitability of long-term contracts increased gross profit by $3.2 million and $8.8 million for the three and nine month periods, respectively, ended September 30, 2019.

In accordance with ASC 606, we do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less. Contracts in the MC segment are generally for periods of less than a year. Most contracts in the AEC segment are short duration firm-fixed-price orders representing performance obligations with an original maturity of less than one year. Remaining performance obligations on contracts that had an original duration of greater than one year totaled $81 million as of both September 30, 2020 and 2019 and related primarily to firm contracts in the AEC segment. Of the remaining performance obligations as of September 30, 2020, we expect to recognize as revenue approximately $36 million during 2020 and the remainder during 2021.

3. Business Acquisition
On November 20, 2019, the Company acquired CirComp GmbH, a privately-held developer and manufacturer of high-performance composite components located in Kaiserslautern, Germany for $32.4 million. The Company also agreed to pay approximately $5.5 million that will become due as certain post-closing obligations are performed. Expense related to that agreement will be recognized over the five year performance period. The Company funded the acquisition using a combination of cash on hand and funds drawn on its revolving credit facility. In March 2020, the Company purchased, in cash, the primary operating facility in Germany for $5.8 million, which resulted in the recording of land and building assets, and the removal of the Right of use assets and associated lease liabilities included in the acquisition-date balance sheet.
The seller provided representations, warranties and indemnities customary for acquisition transactions, including indemnities for certain customer claims identified, before closing. The acquired entity is part of the AEC segment. CirComp specializes in designing and manufacturing customized engineered composite components for aerospace and other demanding industrial applications.
The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired:

Total liabilities assumed$11,710 
Net assets acquired$32,400 
Purchase of business, net of cash acquired$30,793 

During the first six months of 2020, management identified adjustments to the provisional value of assets and liabilities acquired reported in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which resulted in a decrease to Contract assets of $0.3 million, an increase to Accrued liabilities of $0.5 million, an increase to Amortizable intangible assets of $0.3 million, a decrease to Deferred income tax liabilities of $0.2 million, and an increase to Goodwill of $0.3 million. Management's review of the purchase price allocation has been completed.
Acquired Goodwill of $17.7 million reflects the Company’s belief that the acquisition complements and expands Albany’s portfolio of proprietary, advanced manufacturing technologies for composite components, increases the Company’s position as a leading innovator in advanced materials processing and automation, and opens a geographic footprint in Europe to better serve our global customer base. The acquisition significantly increases the Company’s opportunities for future growth. The goodwill is non-deductible for tax purposes.

4. Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
Pension Plans
The Company has defined benefit pension plans covering certain U.S. and non-U.S. employees. The U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan has been closed to new participants since October 1998, and benefits accrued under this plan have been frozen since February 2009. As a result of the freeze, employees covered by the pension plan will receive, at retirement, benefits already accrued through February 2009 but no new benefits accrue after that date. Benefit accruals under the U.S. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") were similarly frozen. The eligibility, benefit formulas, and contribution requirements for plans outside of the U.S. vary by location.
Other Postretirement Benefits
The Company also provides certain postretirement benefits to retired employees in the U.S. and Canada. The Company accrues the cost of providing postretirement benefits during the active service period of the employees. The Company currently funds the plans as claims are paid.
The composition of the net periodic benefit cost for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, was as follows:

Amortization of net actuarial loss1,776 1,687 1,944 1,670 
Net periodic benefit cost$3,388 $2,843 $13 $31 

The amount of net periodic pension cost is determined at the beginning of each year and generally only varies from quarter to quarter when a significant event occurs, such as a curtailment or a settlement. In the second quarter of 2020, the Company recorded expense of $0.4 million related to curtailments and settlements. There were no curtailments or settlements in other quarters.
Service cost for defined benefit pension and postretirement plans are reported in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period.

In 2020, AEC reduced its workforce at various locations, principally in the United States, leading to restructuring charges of $2.6 million for the first nine months of 2020.

Machine Clothing restructuring charges for the first nine months of 2020 and 2019 were principally related to the plant closure of its MC production facility in Sélestat, France that was announced in 2017. Since 2017, we have recorded $13.3 million of restructuring charges related to this action.
