Summary of Significant Accounting Policies P RINCIPLES OF C ONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. B ASIS OF P RESENTATION All references to fiscal 2023 are to the 52-week period from July 2, 2022 to June 30, 2023. All references to fiscal 2022 are to the 52-week period from July 3, 2021 to July 1, 2022. All references to fiscal 2021 are to the 52-week period from July 4, 2020 to July 2, 2021. U SE OF E STIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. B USINESS C OMBINATIONS The Company utilizes the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805, Business Combinations, (“ASC 805”), for all transactions and events in which it obtains control over one or more other businesses, to recognize the fair value of all assets and liabilities acquired, even if less than one hundred percent ownership is acquired, and in establishing the acquisition date fair value as of the measurement date for all assets and liabilities assumed. The Company also utilizes ASC 805 for the initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations. Other estimates include: • estimated step-ups for fixed assets and inventory; • estimated fair values of intangible assets; and • estimated income tax assets and liabilities assumed from the acquiree. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the business acquisition date, the estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the purchase price allocation period, which is generally one year from the business acquisition date, the Company records adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. For changes in the valuation of intangible assets between the preliminary and final purchase price allocation, the related amortization is adjusted in the period it occurs. Subsequent to the purchase price allocation period, any adjustment to assets acquired or liabilities assumed is included in operating results in the period in which the adjustment is determined. L EASES The Company measures its lease obligations in accordance with ASC 842, Leases , (“ASC 842”), which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability for most lease arrangements. The Company has arrangements involving the lease of facilities, machinery and equipment. Under ASC 842, at inception of the arrangement, the Company determines whether the contract is or contains a lease and whether the lease should be 54 Table of Contents classified as an operating or a financing lease. This determination, among other considerations, involves an assessment of whether the Company can control the underlying asset and have the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits or outputs from the asset. The Company recognizes ROU assets and lease liabilities as of the lease commencement date based on the net present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. ASC 842 requires lessees to use the rate implicit in the lease unless it is not readily determinable and then it may use its incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) to discount the future minimum lease payments. Most of the Company's lease arrangements do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, the Company uses its IBR to discount the future minimum lease payments. The Company determines its IBR with its credit rating and current economic information available as of the commencement date, as well as the identified lease term. During the assessment of the lease term, the Company considers its renewal options and extensions within the arrangements and the Company includes these options when it is reasonably certain to extend the term of the lease. The Company has lease arrangements with both lease and non-lease components. Consideration is allocated to lease and non-lease components based on estimated standalone prices. The Company has elected to exclude non-lease components from the calculation of its ROU assets and lease liabilities. In the Company's adoption of ASC 842, leases with an initial term of 12 months or less will not result in recognition of a ROU asset and a lease liability and will be expensed as incurred over the lease term. Leases of this nature were immaterial to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company has lease arrangements that contain incentives for tenant improvements as well as fixed rent escalation clauses. For contracts with tenant improvement incentives that are determined to be a leasehold improvement that will be owned by the lessee and the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, it records a reduction to the lease liability and amortizes the incentive over the identified term of the lease as a reduction to rent expense. The Company records rental expense on a straight-line basis over the identified lease term on contracts with rent escalation clauses. Finance leases are not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements and the Company is not a lessor in any material lease arrangements. There are no material restrictions, covenants, sale and leaseback transactions, variable lease payments or residual value guarantees in the Company's lease arrangements. Operating leases are included in Operating lease right-of-use assets, net, Accrued expenses, and Operating lease liabilities in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The standard had no impact on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. See Note J to the consolidated financial statements for more information regarding our obligations under leases. R EVENUE R ECOGNITION The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the five step model set forth by ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , (“ASC 606”), which involves identification of the contract(s), identification of performance obligations in the contract, determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the previously identified performance obligations, and revenue recognition as the performance obligations are satisfied. During step one of the five step model, the Company considers whether contracts should be combined or segmented, and based on this assessment, the Company combines closely related contracts when all the applicable criteria are met. The combination of two or more contracts requires judgment in determining whether the intent of entering into the contracts was effectively to enter into a single contract, which should be combined to reflect an overall profit rate. Similarly, the Company may separate an arrangement, which may consist of a single contract or group of contracts, with varying rates of profitability, only if the applicable criteria are met. Judgment also is involved in determining whether a single contract or group of contracts may be segmented based on how the arrangement and the related performance criteria were negotiated. The conclusion to combine a group of contracts or segment a contract could change the amount of revenue and gross profit recorded in a given period. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. Certain contracts with customers require the Company to perform tests of its products prior to shipment to ensure their performance complies with the Company’s published product specifications and, on occasion, with additional customer-requested specifications. In these cases, the Company conducts such tests and, if they are completed successfully, includes a written confirmation with each order shipped. As a result, at the time of each product shipment, the Company believes that no further customer testing requirements exist and that there is no uncertainty of acceptance by its customer. The Company's contracts with customers generally do not include a right of return relative to delivered products. In certain cases, contracts are modified to account for changes in the contract specifications or requirements. In most instances, contract modifications are accounted for as part of the existing contract. Certain contracts with customers have options for the customer to acquire additional goods or services. In most cases the pricing of these options are reflective of the standalone selling price of the good or service. These options do not provide the customer with a material right and are accounted for only when the 55 Table of Contents customer exercises the option to purchase the additional goods or services. If the option on the customer contract was not indicative of the standalone selling price of the good or service, the material right would be accounted for as a separate performance obligation. The Company is a leading technology company serving the aerospace and defense industry, positioned at the intersection of high-tech and defense. Revenues are derived from the sales of products that are grouped into one of the following three categories: (i) components; (ii) modules and sub-assemblies; and (iii) integrated subsystems. The Company also generates revenues from the performance of services, including systems engineering support, consulting, maintenance and other support, testing and installation. Each promised good or service within a contract is accounted for separately under the guidance of ASC 606 if they are distinct. Promised goods or services not meeting the criteria for being a distinct performance obligation are bundled into a single performance obligation with other goods or services that together meet the criteria for being distinct. The appropriate allocation of the transaction price and recognition of revenue is then determined for the bundled performance obligation. Once the Company identifies the performance obligations, the Company then determines the transaction price, which includes estimating the amount of variable consideration to be included in the transaction price, if any. Variable consideration typically arises due to volume discounts, or other provisions that can either decrease or increase the transaction price. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing either the expected value method or the most likely amount method depending on the method the Company expects to better predict the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled. The determination of the estimates for variable consideration require judgment, and are based on past history with similar contracts and anticipated performance. Further, variable consideration is only included in the determination of the transaction price if it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of revenue recognized will not occur. There are no constraints on the variable consideration recorded. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation using the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. Standalone selling prices of the Company’s goods and services are generally not directly observable. Accordingly, the primary method used to estimate standalone selling price is the expected cost plus a margin approach, under which the Company estimates the expected costs of satisfying a performance obligation and then adds an appropriate margin for that distinct good or service. The objective of the expected cost plus a margin approach is to determine the price at which the Company would transact if the product or service were sold by the Company on a standalone basis. The Company's determination of the expected cost plus a margin approach involves the consideration of several factors based on the specific facts and circumstances of each contract. Specifically, the Company considers the cost to produce the deliverable, the anticipated margin on that deliverable, the selling price and profit margin for similar parts, the Company’s ongoing pricing strategy and policies, often based on the price list established and updated by management on a regular basis, the value of any enhancements that have been built into the deliverable and the characteristics of the varying markets in which the deliverable is sold. The Company analyzes the standalone selling prices used in its allocation of transaction price on contracts at least annually. Standalone selling prices will be analyzed on a more frequent basis if a significant change in the Company’s business necessitates a more frequent analysis or if the Company experiences significant variances in its selling prices. Revenue recognized at a point in time generally relates to contracts that include a combination of components, modules and sub-assemblies, integrated subsystems and related system integration or other services. Contracts with distinct performance obligations recognized at a point in time, with or without an allocation of the transaction price, totaled 44 %, 45 % and 58 % of revenues in the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023, July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively. Revenue is recognized at a point in time for these products and services (versus over time recognition) due to the following: (i) customers are only able to consume the benefits provided by the Company upon completion of the product or service; (ii) customers do not control the product or service prior to completion; and (iii) the Company does not have an enforceable right to payment at all times for performance completed to date. Accordingly, there is little judgment in determining when control of the good or service transfers to the customer, and revenue is generally recognized upon transfer of control (for goods) or completion (for services). The Company engages in contracts for development, production and service activities and recognizes revenue for performance obligations over time. These over time contracts involve the design, development, manufacture, or modification of complex modules and sub-assemblies or integrated subsystems and related services. Revenue is recognized over time, due to the fact that: (i) the Company’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; and (ii) the Company’s performance creates an asset with no alternative use to the Company and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. The Company considers the nature of these contracts and the types of products and services provided when determining the proper accounting for a particular contract. These contracts include both fixed-price and cost reimbursable contracts. The Company’s cost reimbursable contracts typically include cost-plus fixed fee and time and material (“T&M”) contracts. 56 Table of Contents For over time contracts, the Company typically leverages the input method, using a cost-to-cost measure of progress. The Company believes that this method represents the most faithful depiction of the Company’s performance because it directly measures value transferred to the customer. Contract estimates and estimates of any variable consideration are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events that may span several years. These assumptions include: the amount of time to complete the contract, including the assessment of the nature and complexity of the work to be performed; the cost and availability of materials; the availability of subcontractor services and materials; and the availability and timing of funding from the customer. The Company bears the risk of changes in estimates to complete on a fixed-price contract which may cause profit levels to vary from period to period. For cost reimbursable contracts, the Company is reimbursed periodically for allowable costs and is paid a portion of the fee based on contract progress. In the limited instances where the Company enters into T&M contracts, revenue recognized reflects the number of direct labor hours expended in the performance of a contract multiplied by the contract billing rate, as well as reimbursement of other direct billable costs. For T&M contracts, the Company recognizes revenue in the amount for which the Company has a right to invoice the customer based on the control transferred to the customer. For over time contracts, the Company recognizes anticipated contract losses as soon as they become known and estimable. Accounting for contracts recognized over time requires significant judgment relative to estimating total contract revenues and costs, in particular, assumptions relative to the amount of time to complete the contract, including the assessment of the nature and complexity of the work to be performed. The Company’s estimates are based upon the professional knowledge and experience of its engineers, program managers and other personnel, who review each over time contract monthly to assess the contract’s schedule, performance, technical matters and estimated cost at completion. Changes in estimates are applied retrospectively and when adjustments in estimated contract costs are identified, such revisions may result in current period adjustments to earnings applicable to performance in prior periods. Total revenue recognized under over time contracts over time was 56 %, 55 % and 42 % of revenues in the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023, July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively. The Company generally does not provide its customers with rights of product return other than those related to assurance warranty provisions that permit repair or replacement of defective goods over a period of 12 to 36 months. The Company accrues for anticipated warranty costs upon product shipment. The Company does not consider activities related to such assurance warranties, if any, to be a separate performance obligation. The Company does offer separately priced extended warranties which generally range from 12 to 36 months that are treated as separate performance obligations. The transaction price allocated to extended warranties is recognized over time in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred in satisfying the obligations under the contract. On over time contracts, the portion of the payments retained by the customer is not considered a significant financing component because most contracts have a duration of less than one year and payment is received as progress is made. Many of the Company's over time contracts have milestone payments, which align the payment schedule with the progress towards completion on the performance obligation. On some contracts, the Company may be entitled to receive an advance payment, which is not considered a significant financing component because it is used to facilitate inventory demands at the onset of a contract and to safeguard the Company from the failure of the other party to abide by some or all of their obligations under the contract. All revenues are reported net of government assessed taxes (e.g., sales taxes or value-added taxes). C OSTS TO O BTAIN AND F ULFILL A C ONTRACT The Company expenses sales commissions as incurred for contracts where the amortization period would have been one year or less. The Company had $ 1,328 and $ 1,503 of deferred sales commissions for contracts where the amortization period is greater than one year as of June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively. The Company has elected to treat shipping and handling activities performed after the customer has obtained control of the related goods as a fulfillment cost. Such costs are accrued for in conjunction with the recording of revenue for the goods and are classified as cost of revenues. C ONTRACT B ALANCES Contract balances result from the timing of revenue recognized, billings and cash collections, and the generation of contract assets and liabilities. Contract assets represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts invoiced to the customer and the right to payment is not subject to the passage of time. Contract assets are presented as unbilled receivables and costs in excess of billings on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities consist of deferred product revenue, billings in excess of revenues, deferred service revenue, and customer advances. Deferred product revenue represents amounts that have been invoiced to customers, but are not yet recognizable as revenue because the Company has not satisfied its performance obligations under the contract. Billings in excess of revenues represents milestone billing contracts where the billings of the 57 Table of Contents contract exceed recognized revenues. Deferred service revenue primarily represents amounts invoiced to customers for annual maintenance contracts or extended warranty contracts, which are recognized over time in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred in satisfying the obligations under the contract. Customer advances represent deposits received from customers on an order. Contract liabilities are included in deferred revenue and the long-term portion of deferred revenue is included within other non-current liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract balances are reported in a net position on a contract-by-contract basis. The contract asset balances were $ 382,558 and $ 303,356 as of June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively. The contract asset balance increased due to growth in revenue recognized under contracts, as well as the timing of program milestone billings during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The contract liability balances were $ 57,142 and $ 15,966 as of June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively. The contract liability increased due to a higher volume of advanced milestone billing events as well as timing of revenue conversion across multiple programs. Revenue recognized during fiscal 2023 that was included in the contract liability balance at July 1, 2022 was $ 11,258 . R EMAINING P ERFORMANCE O BLIGATIONS The Company includes in its computation of remaining performance obligations customer orders for which it has accepted signed sales orders. The definition of remaining performance obligations excludes those contracts that provide the customer with the right to cancel or terminate the order with no substantial penalty, even if the Company’s historical experience indicates the likelihood of cancellation or termination is remote. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $ 550,973 . The Company expects to recognize approximately 62 % of its remaining performance obligations as revenue in the next 12 months and the balance thereafter. C ASH AND C ASH E QUIVALENTS Cash equivalents, consisting of highly liquid money market funds and U.S. government and U.S. government agency issues with original maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase, are carried at fair market value which approximates cost. F AIR V ALUE OF F INANCIAL I NSTRUMENTS The Company measures at fair value certain financial assets and liabilities, including cash equivalents, restricted cash, interest rate derivatives, and contingent consideration. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures , specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value 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 and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. C ONCENTRATION OF C REDIT R ISK Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit quality. As of June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, the Company had $ 71,563 and $ 65,654 , respectively, of cash and cash equivalents on deposit or invested with its financial and lending institutions. The Company provides credit to customers in the normal course of business. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and limits the amount of credit extended when deemed necessary. As of June 30, 2023, five customers accounted for 48 % of the Company's accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and costs in excess of billings. As of July 1, 2022, five customers accounted for 45 % of the Company’s accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and costs in excess of billings. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses to provide for the estimated amount of receivables that will not be fully collected. The allowance is based on the assessment of the following factors: customer creditworthiness; historical payment experience; age of outstanding receivables; and any applicable collateral. 58 Table of Contents I NVENTORY Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value, and consists of materials, labor and overhead. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates inventory for net realizable value. Once an item is written down, the value becomes the new inventory cost basis. The Company reduces the value of inventory for excess and obsolete inventory, consisting of on-hand and non-cancelable on-order inventory in excess of estimated usage. The excess and obsolete inventory evaluation is based upon assumptions about future demand, product mix and possible alternative uses. S EGMENT I NFORMATION The Company uses the management approach for segment disclosure, which designates the internal organization that is used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source of its reportable segments. The Company manages its business on the basis of one reportable segment, as a leading technology company serving the aerospace and defense industry. G OODWILL AND I NTANGIBLE A SSETS Goodwill is the amount by which the purchase price of a business acquisition exceeded the fair values of the net identifiable assets on the date of purchase (see Note G). In accordance with the requirements of Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”) Goodwill is not amortized. Goodwill is assessed for impairment at least annually, on a reporting unit basis, or when events and circumstances occur indicating that the recorded goodwill may be impaired. If the book value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the implied fair value of goodwill is compared with the carrying amount of goodwill. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value, an impairment loss is recorded in an amount equal to that excess. Intangible assets result from the Company’s various business acquisitions (see Note H) and certain licensed technologies, and consist of identifiable intangible assets, including completed technology, licensing agreements, patents, customer relationships, trademarks, backlog and non-compete agreements. Intangible assets are reported at cost, net of accumulated amortization and are either amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of up to 12.5 years or over the period the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed. L ONG - LIVED A SSETS Long-lived assets primarily include property and equipment, intangible assets and ROU assets. The Company regularly evaluates its long-lived assets for events and circumstances that indicate a potential impairment in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment (“ASC 360”). The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of these assets are no longer appropriate. Each impairment test is based on a comparison of the estimated undiscounted cash flows of the asset as compared to the recorded value of the asset. If impairment is indicated, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value. Property and equipment are the long-lived, physical assets of the Company acquired for use in the Company’s normal business operations and are not intended for resale by the Company. These assets are recorded at cost. Renewals and betterments that increase the useful lives of the assets are capitalized. Repair and maintenance expenditures that increase the efficiency of the assets are expensed as incurred. Equipment under capital lease is recorded at the present value of the minimum lease payments required during the lease period. Depreciation is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method (see Note F). As assets are retired or sold, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations. Expenditures for major software purchases and software developed for internal use are capitalized and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which are generally three years . For software developed for internal use, all external direct costs for material and services and certain payroll and related fringe benefit costs are capitalized in accordance with ASC 350. During fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company capitalized $ 3,931 , $ 3,000 and $ 1,640 of software development costs, respectively. I NCOME T AXES The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. 59 Table of Contents ASC 740 requires a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination. If the tax position is deemed more-likely-than-not to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50 % likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. P RODUCT W ARRANTY A CCRUAL The Company’s product sales generally include a 12 to 36 month standard hardware warranty. At time of product shipment, the Company accrues for the estimated cost to repair or replace potentially defective products. Estimated warranty costs are based upon prior actual warranty costs for substantially similar transactions and any specifically identified warranty requirements. Product warranty accrual is included as part of accrued expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table presents the changes in the Company's product warranty accrual. Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2022 Fiscal 2021 Beginning balance $ 1,857 $ 3,283 $ 3,835 Accruals for warranties issued during the period 1,146 359 2,446 Settlements made during the period ( 1,721 ) ( 1,785 ) ( 2,998 ) Ending balance $ 1,282 $ 1,857 $ 3,283 R ESEARCH AND D EVELOPMENT C OSTS Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs are primarily made up of labor charges and prototype material and development expenses. S TOCK - BASED C OMPENSATION Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, which generally represents the vesting period, and includes an estimate of the awards that will be forfeited. Stock-based compensation expense for the Company’s performance-based restricted stock awards is amortized over the requisite service period using graded vesting. The Company’s other restricted stock awards recognize expense over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis. R ETIREMENT OF C OMMON S TOCK Stock that is repurchased or received in connection with the vesting of restricted stock is retired immediately upon the Company’s repurchase. The Company accounts for this under the cost method and upon retirement the excess amount over par value is charged against additional paid-in capital. N ET E ARNINGS P ER S HARE Basic net earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share computation includes the effect of shares which would be issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and the vesting of restricted stock, reduced by the number of shares which are assumed to be purchased by the Company under the treasury stock method. For all periods presented, net (loss) income is the control number for determining whether securities are dilutive or not. Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding were as follows: Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2022 Fiscal 2021 Basic weighted-average shares outstanding 56,554 55,527 55,070 Effect of dilutive equity instruments — 374 404 Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding 56,554 55,901 55,474 Equity instruments to purchase 1,852 , 39 and 42 shares of common stock were not included in the calculation of diluted net earnings per share for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023, July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively, because the equity instruments were anti-dilutive. 60 Table of Contents A CCUMULATED O THER C OMPREHENSIVE ( L OSS) I NCOME Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (“AOCI”) includes changes in fair value of derivative instruments, foreign currency translation adjustments and pension benefit plan adjustments.

The amendments in this ASU address diversity and inconsistency related to the recognition and measurement of contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination and require that an acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . Under current U.S. GAAP, an acquirer generally recognizes assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination, including contract assets and liabilities arising from revenue contracts with customers, at fair value on the acquisition date. ASU No. 2021-08 will result in the acquirer recording acquired contract assets and liabilities on the same basis that would have been recorded by the acquiree before the acquisition under Topic 606. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures of the adoption of the amendments in this update will depend on the magnitude of any customer contracts assumed in a business combination in fiscal 2023 and beyond. R ECENTLY A DOPTED A CCOUNTING P RONOUNCEMENTS Effective July 2, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments in this ASU provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments in this ASU are elective and apply to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. This adoption did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. Effective July 2, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06, Debt - Debt with conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity , an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for convertible debt securities. This adoption did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. Effective December 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments in this ASU extend the sunset date under Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024 to align the temporary accounting relief guidance with the expected LIBOR cessation date of June 30, 2023. This adoption did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. 62 Table of Contents C.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair Value Measurements June 30, 2023 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Interest rate swap $ 3,523 $ — $ 3,523 $ — Total $ 3,523 $ — $ 3,523 $ — The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, including money market funds, restricted cash, accounts receivable and payable, contract assets and liabilities and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities. The Company determined the carrying value of long-term debt approximated fair value due to variable interest rates charged on the borrowings, which reprice frequently. On September 7, 2022, the Company entered into an interest rate Swap (the “initial Swap”) with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”) for a notional amount of $ 300,000 in order to fix the interest rate associated with a portion of the total $ 511,500 existing borrowings on the Revolver. The initial Swap agreement was designated and qualified for hedge accounting treatment as a cash flow hedge. The initial Swap matures on February 28, 2027, coterminous with the maturity of the Revolver. The initial Swap established a fixed interest rate on the first $ 300,000 of the Company's outstanding borrowings against the Revolver obligation at 3.25 %. On September 29, 2022, the Company terminated the initial Swap. At the time of termination, the fair value of the initial Swap was an asset of $ 5,995 . The Company received the cash settlement of $ 5,995 and these proceeds are classified within Operating Activities of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. During the twelve months ended June 30, 2023, the Company amortized $ 1,017 of the gain, which is included within Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. Following the termination of the initial Swap, the Company entered a new Swap agreement (“the Swap”) on September 29, 2022 with JPMorgan. The Swap fixes $ 300,000 of the total $ 511,500 existing borrowings of outstanding borrowings under the Revolver at a rate of 3.79 %. As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of the hedge was an asset of $ 3,523 and is included within Other non-current assets in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. E. Inventory Inventory was comprised of the following: As of June 30, 2023 July 1, 2022 Raw materials $ 229,984 $ 178,410 Work in process 81,930 64,287 Finished goods 25,302 27,642 Total $ 337,216 $ 270,339 F.

During fiscal 2023 and 2022, the Company retired $ 1,056 and $ 805 , respectively, of computer equipment and software, furniture, and fixtures, leasehold improvements, and machinery and equipment that were no longer in use by the Company. 65 Table of Contents Depreciation expense related to property and equipment for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023, July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021 was $ 43,777 , $ 33,150 and $ 25,912 , respectively. G. Goodwill In accordance with FASB ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”), the Company determines its reporting units based upon whether discrete financial information is available, if management regularly reviews the operating results of the component, the nature of the products offered to customers and the market characteristics of each reporting unit. A reporting unit is considered to be an operating segment or one level below an operating segment also known as a component. Component level financial information is reviewed by management across two reporting units: Mission Systems and Microelectronics. Accordingly, these were determined to be the Company's reporting units which is consistent with the prior period. The following table sets forth the changes in the carrying amount of goodw ill for the twelve months ended June 30, 2023 : Total Balance at July 1, 2022 $ 937,880 Goodwill adjustment for the Avalex acquisition 66 Goodwill adjustment for the Atlanta Micro acquisition 147 Balance at June 30, 2023 $ 938,093 The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 with no impairment noted. 66 Table of Contents H.

Restructuring During fiscal 2023, the Company incurred $ 6,981 of restructuring and other charges. Restructuring and other charges primarily related to $ 3,415 of severance costs, 1MPACT related costs consisting of $ 1,804 for facility optimization efforts, including $ 1,339 related to lease asset impairment, and $ 1,762 of third party consulting costs. The Company incurs restructuring and other charges in connection with management's decision to undertake certain actions to realign operating expenses through workforce reductions and the closure of certain Company facilities, businesses and product lines. The Company's adjustments reflected in restructuring and other charges are typically related to organizational redesign programs or discrete post-acquisition integration activities initiated as part of discrete post acquisition integration activities. During fiscal 2022, restructuring and other charges primarily related to 1MPACT including $ 17,424 of third party consulting costs, as well as $ 9,234 of severance costs associated with the elimination of approximately 135 positions across manufacturing, SG&A and R&D based on ongoing talent and workforce optimization efforts. Fiscal 2022 also includes $ 787 of costs for facility optimization efforts associated with 1MPACT, including $ 544 related to lease asset impairment. All of the restructuring and other charges are classified as Operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income and any remaining severance obligations are expected to be paid within the next twelve months. The remaining restructuring liability is classified as accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. 67 Table of Contents The following table presents the detail of charges included in the Company’s liability for restructuring and other charges: Severance & Related Facilities & Other Total Restructuring liability at July 2, 2021 $ 1,006 $ — $ 1,006 Restructuring charges 9,234 243 9,477 Cash paid ( 5,518 ) ( 243 ) ( 5,761 ) Restructuring liability at July 1, 2022 4,722 — 4,722 Restructuring charges 3,415 465 3,880 Cash paid ( 6,608 ) ( 444 ) ( 7,052 ) Reversals (*) — ( 21 ) ( 21 ) Restructuring liability at June 30, 2023 $ 1,529 $ — $ 1,529 J. Leases The Company enters into lease arrangements to facilitate its operations, including manufacturing, storage, as well as engineering, sales, marketing and administration resources. The Company measures its lease obligations in accordance with ASC 842, which requires lessees to record a ROU asset and lease liability for most lease arrangements. Finance leases are not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements and therefore are excluded from the following disclosures.

The effective tax rate for fiscal 2022 differed from the Federal statutory rate primarily due to additional tax provisions for non-deductible compensation, provision to return adjustments, state taxes and excess tax provisions related to stock compensation, partially offset by benefits related to research and development tax credits. 70 Table of Contents The effective tax rate for fiscal 2021 differed from the Federal statutory rate primarily due to benefits related to research and development tax credits and excess tax benefits related to stock compensation, partially offset by additional tax provisions related to state taxes and non-deductible compensation. During fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021 the Company recognized a tax provision (benefit) of $ 1,244 , $ 977 and $( 2,831 ) related to stock compensation, respectively. On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 into law which contained provisions that include a 15% corporate minimum tax effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022 and a 1% excise tax on certain stock buybacks after December 31, 2022. We expect the impact of this legislation to be immaterial. Effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2021, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("TCJA") requires companies to capitalize and amortize domestic research and development expenditures over five years for tax purposes, and foreign research and development expenditures over fifteen years for tax purposes. The cash outflow from this provision was $ 26,400 in fiscal 2023. The components of the Company’s net deferred tax assets (liabilities) were as follows: As of June 30, 2023 July 1, 2022 Deferred tax assets: Inventory valuation and receivable allowances $ 18,095 $ 17,248 Accrued compensation 3,127 5,970 Stock compensation 5,149 6,154 Federal and state tax credit carryforwards 14,287 20,294 Other accruals 2,705 1,503 Research and development expenditures 63,114 — Deferred compensation 930 930 Federal and state net operating loss carryforward 774 5,275 Foreign net operating loss carryforward 3,166 1,859 Operating lease liabilities 19,968 21,988 Deferred revenue 1,260 743 Other 1,065 307 133,640 82,271 Valuation allowance ( 14,785 ) ( 15,349 ) Total deferred tax assets 118,855 66,922 Deferred tax liabilities: Prepaid expenses ( 1,710 ) ( 1,815 ) Property and equipment ( 15,798 ) ( 19,766 ) Intangible assets ( 54,550 ) ( 59,628 ) Operating lease right-of-use assets, net ( 17,077 ) ( 17,985 ) Gain on interest rate swap ( 2,400 ) — Other ( 221 ) ( 126 ) Total deferred tax liabilities ( 91,756 ) ( 99,320 ) Net deferred tax assets (liabilities) $ 27,099 $ ( 32,398 ) At June 30, 2023, the Company evaluated the need for a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. In assessing whether the deferred tax assets are realizable, management considered whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company's past and recent operating performance and results, future taxable income including the reversal of existing deferred tax liabilities, and tax planning strategies. The Company continues to conclude that its net deferred tax assets in Switzerland are not more likely than not to be realized, and as such, continues to maintain a valuation allowance on such net deferred tax assets. The Company also continues to conclude that certain state research and development tax credits carryforwards are not more likely than not to be realized, and as such, continues to maintain a valuation allowance on these carryforwards. The Company 71 Table of Contents continues to conclude that all other deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized. Any future changes in the valuation allowance will impact the Company's income tax provision. Fiscal 2023 includes the impact of the TCJA, which requires companies to capitalize and amortize domestic research and development expenditures over five years for tax purposes, and foreign research and development expenditures over fifteen years for tax purposes. The Company has state research and development tax credit carryforwards of $ 11,697 , which will expire starting in fiscal year 2024 through fiscal year 2038 . The Company has acquired Federal net operating loss carryforwards of $ 188 , which have an unlimited carryforward period. The Company has acquired state net operating loss carryforwards of $ 11,170 , which will expire starting in fiscal year 2040. The Company has foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $ 21,551 , which will expire starting in fiscal year 2028 through fiscal year 2043. The Company maintains a valuation allowance on the majority of the foreign net operating loss carryforward. The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. (Federal and state) and various foreign jurisdictions that it operates in. The Company has established income tax reserves for potential additional income taxes based upon management’s assessment, including recognition and measurement. All income tax reserves are analyzed quarterly, and adjustments are made as events occur and warrant modification. The changes in the Company’s income tax reserves for gross unrecognized income tax benefits, including interest and penalties, are summarized as follows: Fiscal Years 2023 2022 Unrecognized tax benefits, beginning of period $ 9,112 $ 7,467 Increases for tax positions taken related to a prior period — 160 Increases for tax positions taken during the current period 1,260 990 Decreases for tax positions taken by an acquired company ( 2,679 ) 615 Decreases for tax positions taken related to a prior period ( 191 ) — Decreases for settlements of previously recognized positions ( 93 ) ( 92 ) Decreases as a result of a lapse of the applicable statute of limitations ( 2,244 ) ( 28 ) Unrecognized tax benefits, end of period $ 5,165 $ 9,112 The $ 5,165 of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2023, if released, would reduce the Company's income tax provision. The Company includes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the provision for income taxes. The total amount of gross interest and penalties accrued was $ 583 and $ 488 as of June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively, and the amount of interest and penalties recognized in fiscal 2023 and 2022 was $ 96 and $ 172 , respectively. The Company’s major tax jurisdiction is the U.S. (Federal and state) and the open tax years are fiscal 2017 through 2023. L. Commitments and Contingencies L EGAL C LAIMS The Company is subject to litigation, claims, investigations and audits arising from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Although legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, the Company believes that it has valid defenses with respect to any matters currently pending against the Company and intends to defend itself vigorously. The outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's cash flows, results of operations, or financial position. We are subject to litigation, claims, investigations and audits arising from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. Although legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, we believe that we have valid defenses with respect to those matters currently pending against us and intend to defend ourself vigorously. The outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, is not expected to have a material impact on our cash flows, results of operations, or financial position. 72 Table of Contents On June 23 2021, Embedded Reps of America, LLC (“ERA”), a former sales representative, and James Mazzola, a principal of ERA, filed for binding arbitration related to the termination of ERA’s sales representative agreement raising multiple claims that aggregate to approximately $ 9,000 in direct damages, with treble damages requested on a number of those claims. ERA was a sales representative of Themis when Themis was acquired by Mercury. The sales representative agreement provided for termination by either party upon 30 days written notice with ERA entitled to commissions for orders obtained by ERA with product shipment occurring prior to termination. The Company responded to the complaint in July 2021. An arbitration proceeding was held during September 2022 with final motions in October 2022, and oral arguments in November 2022. The arbitrator issued its final ruling in January 2023, awarding ERA $72 in damages and fees. On December 7, 2021, counsel for National Technical Systems, Inc. (“NTS”) sent the Company an environmental demand letter pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 21E, Section 4A, and CERCLA 42 U.S.C. Section 9601, related to a site that NTS formerly owned at 533 Main Street, Acton, Massachusetts. NTS received a Notice of Responsibility from the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (“MassDEP”) alleging trichloroethene, freon and 1,4-dioxane contamination in the groundwater emanating from NTS’s former site. NTS alleges in its demand letter that the operations of a predecessor company to Mercury that was acquired in the Company's acquisition of the Microsemi carve-out business that once owned and operated a facility at 531 Main Street, Acton, Massachusetts contributed to the groundwater contamination. NTS is seeking payment from the Company of NTS’s costs for any required environmental remediation. In April 2022, the Company engaged in a meet and confer session with NTS pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 21E, Section 4A to discuss the status of the environmental review performed by NTS and its licensed site professional. In addition in November 2021, the Company responded to a request for information from MassDEP regarding the detection of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroakyl substances) in the Acton, Massachusetts Water District’s Conant public water supply wells near the former facility at 531 Main Street, Acton, Massachusetts at a level above the standard that MassDEP published for PFAS in October 2020. The Company has not been contacted by NTS or MassDEP since the dates discussed above. It is too early to determine what responsibility, if any, the Company may have for these environmental matters. On June 19, 2023, the Board of Directors received notice of our former CEO's resignation from the positions of President and Chief Executive Officer. The Board accepted the resignation effective June 24, 2023. In the notice, the former CEO claimed entitlement to certain benefits, including equity vesting, severance, and other benefits, under the change in control severance agreement (the "CIC Agreement") because the former CEO had resigned with good reason during a potential change in control period. The Company disputes these claims and maintain that the former CEO resigned without good reason. The parties must submit any dispute under the CIC Agreement to binding arbitration. The Company intends to contest vigorously any claims under the CIC Agreement and believe that the Company has strong arguments that our former CEO's claims lack merit. If the arbitrator rules in the Company's favor, the Company may still need to pay the former CEO's reasonable legal fees. If instead the arbitrator rules for the former CEO, the Company could be liable for up to approximately $ 12,900 , based on the closing price of our common stock on June 26, 2023, plus legal fees and expenses, for accelerated equity vesting, severance, and other benefits under the CIC Agreement. The Company categorically denies any wrongdoing or liability under the CIC Agreement, but the outcome of potential arbitration is inherently uncertain. Accordingly, it is reasonably possible that the Company will incur a liability in this matter and estimate the potential range of exposure from $ 0 to $ 12,900 , plus costs and attorneys' fees. I NDEMNIFICATION O BLIGATIONS The Company's standard product sales and license agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business typically contain an indemnification provision pursuant to which the Company indemnifies, holds harmless, and agrees to reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party in connection with any patent, copyright or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third party with respect to the Company's products. Such provisions generally survive termination or expiration of the agreements. The potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is, in some instances, unlimited. P URCHASE C OMMITMENTS As of June 30, 2023, the Company has entered into non-cancelable purchase commitments for certain inventory components and services used in its normal operations. The purchase commitments covered by these agreements are for less than one year and aggregate to $ 127,134 . O THER The Company may elect from time to time to purchase and subsequently retire shares of common stock in order to settle an individual employees’ tax liability associated with vesting of a restricted stock award or exercise of stock options. These transactions are treated as a use of cash in financing activities in the Company's Statements of Cash Flows. 73 Table of Contents M. Debt Revolving Credit Facilities On February 28, 2022, the Company amended the Revolver to increase and extend the borrowing capacity to a $ 1,100,000 , 5 -year revolving credit line, with the maturity extended to February 28, 2027. As of June 30, 2023, the Company's outstanding balance of unamortized deferred financing costs was $ 3,446 , which is being amortized to Other (expense) income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. Maturity The Revolver has a 5 -year maturity and will mature on February 28, 2027. Interest Rates and Fees Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest, at the Company’s option, at floating rates tied to Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") or the prime rate plus an applicable percentage in the case of dollar denominated loans or, in the case of certain other currencies, such alternative floating rates as agreed. The interest rate applicable to outstanding loans has initially been set at SOFR plus 1.25 % and in future fiscal quarters will be established pursuant to a pricing grid based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio. In addition to interest on the aggregate outstanding principal amounts of any borrowings, the Company will also pay a quarterly commitment fee on the unutilized commitments under the Revolver, which fee has initially been set at 0.20 % per annum and in future fiscal quarters will be established pursuant to a pricing grid based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio. The Company will also pay customary letter of credit and agency fees. Covenants and Events of Default The Revolver provides for customary negative covenants, including, among other things and subject to certain significant exceptions, restrictions on the incurrence of debt or guarantees, the creation of liens, the making of certain investments, loans and acquisitions, mergers and dissolutions, the sale of assets including capital stock of subsidiaries, the payment of dividends, the repayment or amending of junior debt, altering the business conducted, engaging in transactions with affiliates and entering into agreements limiting subsidiary dividends and distributions. The Revolver also requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants, including a quarterly minimum consolidated cash interest charge ratio test and a quarterly maximum consolidated total net leverage ratio test. The Revolver also provides for customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default (including, among others, the failure to make required payments of principal and interest, certain insolvency events and an event of default upon a change of control). If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the Revolver will be entitled to take various actions, including the termination of unutilized commitments, the acceleration of amounts outstanding under the Revolver and all actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor. Guarantees and Security The Company’s obligations under the Revolver are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s material domestic wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). The obligations of both the Company and the Guarantors are secured by a perfected security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors, in each case, now owned or later acquired, including a pledge of all of the capital stock of substantially all of the Company’s domestic wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries and 65 % of the capital stock of certain of its foreign restricted subsidiaries, subject in each case to the exclusion of certain assets and additional exceptions. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and conditions under the Revolver and there were outstanding borrowings of $ 511,500 against the Revolver as compared to $ 451,500 for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2022, resulting in interest expense of $ 25,159 and $ 5,806 for fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively. The current borrowing capacity as defined under the Revolver as of June 30, 2023 is approximately $ 865,000 , of which we had outstanding borrowings against of $ 511,500 . There were outstanding letters of credit of $ 963 as of June 30, 2023. 74 N. Employee Benefit Plans Pension Plan The Company maintains a pension plan (the “Plan”) for its Swiss employees, which is administered by an independent pension fund. The Plan is mandated by Swiss law and meets the criteria for a defined benefit plan under ASC 715, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (“ASC 715”), since participants of the Plan are entitled to a defined rate of return on contributions made. The independent pension fund is a multi-employer plan with unrestricted joint liability for all participating companies for which the Plan’s overfunding or underfunding is allocated to each participating company based on an allocation key determined by the Plan. The Company recognizes a net asset or liability for the Plan equal to the difference between the projected benefit obligation of the Plan and the fair value of the Plan’s assets as required by ASC 715. The funded status may vary from year to year due to changes in the fair value of the Plan’s assets and variations on the underlying assumptions of the projected benefit obligation of the Plan. In fiscal 2021, the independent pension fund changed the conversion rate for accumulated retirement savings leading to a Plan amendment. The Company’s results contain the effects of this change in conversion rates by the independent pension fund as prior service costs. These prior service costs are amortized from AOCI to net periodic benefit costs over approximately nine years . At June 30, 2023, the accumulated benefit obligation of the Plan equals the fair value of the Plan's assets. The Plan's funded status at June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022 was a net liability of $ 4,151 and $ 4,660 , respectively, which is recorded in other non-current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recorded a net gain of $ 142 and $ 4,739 in AOCI during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively. Total employer contributions to the Plan were $ 1,158 during the year ended June 30, 2023, and the Company's total expected employer contributions to the Plan during fiscal 2024 are $ 1,122 . The following table reflects the total pension benefits expected to be paid from the Plan, which is funded from contributions by participants and the Company.

The following table presents the change in projected benefit obligation for the periods presented: Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2023 July 1, 2022 Projected benefit obligation, beginning $ 25,509 $ 28,614 Service cost 1,068 1,405 Interest cost 463 83 Employee contributions 1,439 2,606 Actuarial gain ( 516 ) ( 4,720 ) Benefits paid ( 246 ) ( 1,444 ) Settlements ( 4,770 ) — Foreign exchange gain (loss) 1,763 ( 1,035 ) Projected benefit obligation at end of year $ 24,710 $ 25,509 The following table presents the change in Plan assets for the periods presented: Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2023 July 1, 2022 Fair value of Plan assets, beginning $ 20,849 $ 18,807 Actual return on Plan assets 700 514 Company contributions 1,158 1,056 Employee contributions 1,439 2,606 Benefits paid ( 246 ) ( 1,444 ) Settlements ( 4,770 ) — Foreign exchange gain (loss) 1,429 ( 690 ) Fair value of Plan assets at end of year $ 20,559 $ 20,849 The following table presents the Company's reconciliation of funded status for the period presented: As of June 30, 2023 July 1, 2022 Projected benefit obligation at end of year $ 24,710 $ 25,509 Fair value of plan assets at end of year 20,559 20,849 Funded status $ ( 4,151 ) $ ( 4,660 ) The fair value of Plan assets were $ 20,559 at June 30, 2023. The Plan is denominated in a foreign currency, the Swiss Franc, which can have an impact on the fair value of Plan assets. The Plan was not subject to material fluctuations during the years ended June 30, 2023 or July 1, 2022. The Plan’s assets are administered by an independent pension fund foundation (the “foundation”). As of June 30, 2023, the foundation has invested the assets of the Plan in various investments vehicles, including cash, real estate, equity securities, and bonds. The investments are measured at fair value using a mix of Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. 401(k) Plan The Company maintains a qualified 401(k) plan (the “401(k) Plan”) for its U.S. employees. Effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company increased the rate of its matching contributions from 3 % to 6 % of participants' eligible annual compensation and changed the form of these contributions from cash to Company stock. The Company may also make optional contributions to the plan for any plan year at its discretion. The Company had $ 2,705 of capitalized stock-based 401(k) matching compensation expense on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2023. Stock-based 401(k) matching compensation cost is measured based on the value of the matching amount and is recognized as expense as incurred. Expense recognized by the Company for matching contributions related to the 401(k) plan was $ 15,665 , $ 7,603 , and $ 7,876 during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023, July 1, 2022, and July 2, 2021, respectively. 77 Table of Contents O. Shareholders’ Equity P REFERRED S TOCK The Company is authorized to issue 1,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $ 0.01 per share. S HELF R EGISTRATION S TATEMENT On September 14, 2020, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR with the SEC. The shelf registration statement, which was effective upon filing with the SEC, registered each of the following securities: debt securities; preferred stock; common stock; warrants; and units. The Company has an unlimited amount available under the shelf registration statement. The Company intends to file a renewal of the S-3ASR in September 2023 upon the expiration of the three-year term of the current shelf registration statement. S TOCKHOLDER R IGHTS P LAN On December 27, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors authorized and declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a “Right”), payable on January 10, 2022, for each outstanding share of common stock par value $ 0.01 per share to the stockholders of record on that date. Each Right entitled the registered holder to purchase from the Company a unit of Series A Junior Preferred Stock, par value $ 0.01 per share, of the Company at a designated price per unit, subject to adjustment. The Rights initially trade with, and are inseparable from, the shares of common stock. On June 24, 2022, the Company amended the Rights Agreement, dated as of December 27, 2021, to increase the ownership threshold for a person to be an “Acquiring Person” (as defined in the Rights Agreement) from 7.5 % of common stock to 10 % of common stock ( 10 % of common stock to 20 % of common stock in the case of a passive institutional investor). Additional details about the Rights Agreement are contained in the Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on December 29, 2021 and June 24, 2022. On October 26, 2022 the Stockholder Rights Plan and the Rights thereunder expired. P. Stock-Based Compensation S TOCK I NCENTIVE P LANS The Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”) on July 23, 2018. The 2018 Plan became effective upon the approval of shareholders at the Company’s annual meeting held on October 24, 2018. The aggregate number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2018 Plan is 6,782 shares, with an additional 710 shares rolled into the 2018 Plan that were available for future grant under the Company’s 2005 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “2005 Plan”) and increases of 3,000 and 2,000 shares approved by the Company's shareholders on October 28, 2020 and October 26, 2022, respectively. The 2018 Plan replaced the 2005 Plan. The 2018 Plan provides for the grant of non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights and deferred stock awards to employees and non-employees. There were 3,512 shares available for future grant under the 2018 Plan at June 30, 2023. As part of the Company's ongoing annual equity grant program for employees, the Company grants performance-based restricted stock awards to certain executives and employees pursuant to the 2018 Plan. Performance awards vest based on the requisite service period subject to the achievement of specific financial performance targets. Based on the performance targets, some of these awards require graded vesting which results in more rapid expense recognition compared to traditional time-based vesting over the same vesting period. The Company monitors the probability of achieving the performance targets on a quarterly basis and may adjust periodic stock compensation expense accordingly based on its determination of the likelihood for reaching targets. The performance targets generally include the achievement of internal performance targets in relation to a peer group of companies. E MPLOYEE S TOCK P URCHASE P LAN The number of shares authorized for issuance under the Company’s 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended and restated (“ESPP”), is 2,300 shares, including 500 shares approved by the Company's shareholders on October 28, 2020. Under the ESPP, rights are granted to purchase shares of common stock at 85 % of the lesser of the market value of such shares at either the beginning or the end of each six-month offering period. The ESPP permits employees to purchase common stock through payroll deductions, which may not exceed 10 % of an employee’s compensation as defined in the ESPP. The number of shares issued under the ESPP during fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021 was 145 , 115 and 101 , respectively. Shares available for future purchase under the ESPP totaled 168 at June 30, 2023. 78 Table of Contents S TOCK A WARD A CTIVITY Non-Vested Restricted Stock Awards Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Outstanding at July 2, 2021 1,013 $ 70.77 Granted 1,993 52.70 Vested ( 477 ) 61.42 Forfeited ( 224 ) 66.66 Outstanding at July 1, 2022 2,305 $ 57.47 Granted 298 51.90 Vested ( 738 ) 60.89 Forfeited ( 526 ) 55.66 Outstanding at June 30, 2023 1,339 $ 54.45 The total fair value of restricted stock awards vested during fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021 was $ 25,587 , $ 25,533 and $ 34,342 , respectively.

Operating Segment, Geographic Information and Significant Customers Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise evaluated regularly by the Company's chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company evaluated this internal reorganization under FASB ASC 280, Segment Reporting ("ASC 280") to determine whether this change has impacted the Company's single operating and reportable segment. The Company concluded this change had no effect given the CODM continues to evaluate and manage the Company on the basis of one operating and reportable segment. The Company utilized the management approach for determining its operating segment in accordance with ASC 280. 79 Table of Contents The geographic distribution of the Company’s revenues as determined by order origination based on the country in which the Company's legal subsidiary is domiciled is summarized as follows: U.S. Europe Asia Pacific Eliminations Total YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 Net revenues to unaffiliated customers $ 927,003 $ 46,857 $ 22 $ — $ 973,882 Inter-geographic revenues 2,764 447 — ( 3,211 ) — Net revenues $ 929,767 $ 47,304 $ 22 $ ( 3,211 ) $ 973,882 Identifiable long-lived assets (1) $ 116,381 $ 3,173 $ — $ — $ 119,554 YEAR ENDED JULY 1, 2022 Net revenues to unaffiliated customers $ 945,600 $ 41,390 $ 1,207 $ — $ 988,197 Inter-geographic revenues 2,578 2,408 — ( 4,986 ) — Net revenues $ 948,178 $ 43,798 $ 1,207 $ ( 4,986 ) $ 988,197 Identifiable long-lived assets (1) $ 122,712 $ 4,476 $ 3 $ — $ 127,191 YEAR ENDED JULY 2, 2021 Net revenues to unaffiliated customers $ 876,479 $ 47,119 $ 398 $ — $ 923,996 Inter-geographic revenues 1,561 1,985 — ( 3,546 ) — Net revenues $ 878,040 $ 49,104 $ 398 $ ( 3,546 ) $ 923,996 Identifiable long-lived assets (1) $ 123,009 $ 5,509 $ 6 $ — $ 128,524 (1) Identifiable long-lived assets exclude ROU assets, goodwill and intangible assets. In recent years, the Company completed a series of acquisitions that changed its technological capabilities, applications and end markets. As these acquisitions and changes occurred, the Company's proportion of revenue derived from the sale of components in different technological areas, and modules, sub-assemblies and integrated subsystems which combine technologies into more complex diverse products has shifted. The following tables present revenue consistent with the Company's strategy of expanding its technological capabilities and program content. As additional information related to the Company’s products by end user, application, product grouping and/or platform is attained, the categorization of these products can vary over time. When this occurs, the Company reclassifies revenue by end user, application, product grouping and/or platform for prior periods. Such reclassifications typically do not materially change the underlying trends of results within each revenue category. The following table presents the Company's net revenue by end market for the periods presented: Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2023 July 1, 2022 July 2, 2021 Domestic (1) $ 865,216 $ 861,125 $ 795,988 International/Foreign Military Sales (2) 108,666 127,072 128,008 Total Net Revenue $ 973,882 $ 988,197 $ 923,996 (1) Domestic revenues consist of sales where the end user is within the U.S., as well as sales to prime defense contractor customers where the ultimate end user location is not defined.

Derivatives The Company utilizes interest rate derivatives to mitigate interest rate exposure with respect to its financing arrangements. On September 7, 2022, the Company entered into an interest rate Swap (the “initial Swap”) with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”) for a notional amount of $ 300,000 in order to fix the interest rate associated with a portion of the total $ 511,500 existing borrowings on the Revolver. The initial Swap agreement was designated and qualified for hedge accounting treatment as a cash flow hedge. The initial Swap matured on February 28, 2027, coterminous with the maturity of the Revolver. The initial Swap established a fixed interest rate on the first $ 300,000 of the Company's outstanding borrowings against the Revolver obligation at 3.25 %. On September 29, 2022, the Company terminated the initial Swap. At the time of termination, the fair value of the initial Swap was an asset of $ 5,995 . The Company received the cash settlement of $ 5,995 and these proceeds are classified within Operating Activities of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company is amortizing the gain over the term of the Revolver and during the twelve months ended June 30, 2023, the Company amortized $ 1,017 of the gain, which is included within Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. Following the termination of the initial Swap, the Company entered a new Swap agreement (“the Swap”) on September 29, 2022 with JPMorgan. The Swap fixes $ 300,000 of the total $ 511,500 existing borrowings of outstanding borrowings under the Revolver at a rate of 3.79 %. The Swap matures on February 28, 2027, coterminous with the maturity of the Revolver. As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of the hedge was an asset of $ 3,523 and is included within Other non-current assets in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The market risk associated with the Company’s derivative instrument is the result of interest rate movements that are expected to offset the market risk of the underlying arrangement. The counterparty to the Swap is JPMorgan. Based on the credit ratings of the Company’s counterparty as of June 30, 2023, nonperformance is not perceived to be a material risk. Furthermore, none of the Company’s derivatives are subject to collateral or other security arrangements and none contain provisions that are dependent on the Company’s credit ratings from any credit rating agency. While the contract or notional amounts of derivative financial instruments provide one measure of the volume of these transactions, they do not represent the amount of the Company’s exposure to credit risk. The amounts potentially subject to credit risk (arising from the possible inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of their contracts) are generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparty obligations under the contracts exceed the obligations of the Company to the counterparty. As a result of the above considerations, the Company does not consider the risk of counterparty default to be significant. S. Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated subsequent events from the date of the Consolidated Balance Sheet through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued. The Company has initiated several immediate cost savings measures that simplify the Company’s organizational structure, facilitate clearer accountability, and align to the Company’s priorities, including: (i) embedding the 1MPACT value creation initiatives and execution into the Company’s operations; (ii) streamlining organizational structure and removing areas of redundancy between corporate and divisional organizations; and (iii) reduce selling, general, and administrative headcount and rebalancing discretionary and third party spending to better align with the Company’s priority areas. On July 20, 2023, the Company executed the plan to embed the 1MPACT value creation initiatives into operations, and on August 9, 2023, the Company approved and initiated a workforce reduction that, together with the 1MPACT related action, eliminates approximately 150 positions, resulting in expected restructuring charges of approximately $ 9,000 . These charges are for employee separation costs and will be classified as restructuring and other charges within the Company’s Statement of Operations and Other Comprehensive Income for the fiscal quarter ending September 29, 2023.
