Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note A — Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Materion Corporation and its subsidiaries (referred to herein as the Company, our, we, or us) contain all of the adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods reported. All adjustments were of a normal and recurring nature.
These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Business Combinations:
The Company records assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. Any intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred.
The amounts reflected in Note B of the consolidated financial statements are the results of a preliminary purchase price allocation and will be updated upon completion of the final valuation. The Company is required to complete the purchase price allocation within 12 months of the acquisition date. If such completion of the allocation results in a change in the preliminary values, the measurement period adjustment will be recognized in the period in which the adjustment amount is determined.
New Pronouncements Adopted:
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting . This guidance is intended to provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burden related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This guidance is available immediately and may be implemented in any period prior to the guidance expiration on December 31, 2022. The Company has applied this guidance in accounting for the interest rate swap discussed in Note N. Any additional reference rate reform impacts will be accounted for in accordance with ASU 2020-04.
New Accounting Guidance Issued and Not Yet Adopted:
In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832) . ASU 2021-10 is intended to increase transparency related to governmental assistance by requiring entities to disclose the types of government assistance, the entity's accounting for government assistance, and the effect of government assistance on an entity's financial statements. This new guidance is effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the guidance on its annual disclosures.
No other recently issued or effective ASUs had, or are expected to have, a material effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

Note B — Acquisition
On November 1, 2021, the Company acquired the industry-leading electronic materials business of H.C. Starck Group GmbH (HCS-Electronic Materials) for a cash purchase price of approximately $ 398.9 million, on a cash-free, debt-free basis, subject to a customary purchase price adjustment mechanism. During the six months ended July 1, 2022, acquisition-related inventory step-up expense was $ 7.5 million and classified in Cost of Sales and transaction and integration costs were $ 2.6 million and classified in Selling, General and Administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The Company financed the purchase price for the HCS-Electronic Materials acquisition with a new $ 300 million five-year term loan pursuant to a delayed draw term loan facility executed in October 2021 and $ 103 million of borrowings under its amended revolving credit facility. The maturity date on the revolving credit facility was also extended to October 2026. The interest rate for the term loan is based on LIBOR plus a tiered credit spread that is indexed to the Company's quarterly leverage ratio. This acquired business operates within the Performance Materials and Electronic Materials segments, and the results of operations are included as of the date of acquisition. The combination of Materion and HCS-Electronic Materials enhances the Company's position as the leading supplier to the high growth semiconductor industry.
The fair value estimates of the assets acquired are subject to adjustment during the measurement period (up to one year from the HCS-Electronic Materials Acquisition Date). The primary areas of accounting for the HCS Acquisition that are not yet finalized relate to the fair value of contingencies, income tax accruals, and the impact on residual goodwill. The fair values of these net assets acquired are based on management’s estimates and assumptions, as well as other information compiled by management, including valuations that utilize customary valuation procedures and techniques. While we believe that such preliminary estimates provide a reasonable basis for estimating the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we will evaluate any additional information prior to finalization of the fair value. During the measurement period, we will adjust preliminary valuations assigned to assets and liabilities if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the HCS Acquisition Date that, if known, would have resulted in revised values for these items as of that date. The impact of all changes, if any, that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments will be included in current period earnings.
During the period subsequent to the HCS-Electronic Materials acquisition, we made certain measurement period adjustments to the acquired assets and liabilities assumed due to clarification of information utilized to determine fair value during the measurement period. Additionally, we paid a working capital true-up of approximately $ 3.0 million during the second quarter of 2022 which increased the total purchase price. The preliminary purchase price allocation for the acquisition including these measurement period adjustments is as follows:

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The Company engaged specialists to assist in the valuation of inventories, property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets.
In determining the fair value of the amounts above, inventory is fair valued based on the comparative sales method for work in process and finished goods at the selling price less cost to dispose and remaining manufacturing effort. The remaining working capital accounts' carrying values approximate fair value. For property, plant and equipment and intangible asset values, the Company utilized various forms of the income, cost and market approaches depending on the asset being valued. The Company used a relief from royalty method under the income approach to value its trade names and the developed technology and the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach to value customer relationships. The significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these intangible assets included the discount rate and certain assumptions that form the basis of forecasted future cash flows (including revenue growth rates, royalty rates for trade names and developed technology, and attrition rates for customer relationships). Inputs were generally determined by taking into account independent appraisals and historical data, supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions and are considered Level 3 assets as the assumptions are unobservable inputs developed by the Company.
As part of the acquisition, the Company recorded approximately $ 181.9 million of goodwill allocated between its Electronic Materials and Performance Materials segments based on the relative fair values. Goodwill was calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired and primarily attributable to the synergies expected to arise after the acquisition dates. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for U.S. tax purposes.
The following table reports the intangible assets by asset category as of the closing date:

The amounts of revenue and income (loss) before taxes of HCS-Electronic Materials in the second quarter of 2022 consolidated statements are $ 43.6 million and $ 7.6 million, respectively. Full year revenue and income before taxes total $ 86.9 million and $ 6.0 million, respectively. Income before taxes includes the purchase accounting inventory step-up expense recorded in the first quarter of 2022. Had the HCS-Electronic Materials acquisition occurred as of the beginning of fiscal 2020, the Company's sales and income (loss) before taxes would have been as follows:

The unaudited pro forma financial information has been calculated after applying our accounting policies and adjusting the historical results with pro forma adjustments that assume the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2020. These unaudited pro forma results do not represent financial results realized, nor are they intended to be a projection of future results. The transaction accounting adjustments and other adjustments are based on available information and assumptions that the Company’s management believes are reasonable. Such adjustments are estimates and actual experience may differ from expectations. The pro forma income (loss) before taxes for the second quarter ended and six months ended July 2, 2021 includes approximately $ 4.3 million and $ 7.2 million, respectively, of additional interest expense related to committed financing to fund the acquisition and acquisition-related intangible asset amortization expense of $ 2.0 million and $ 4.0 million, respectively, as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2020.
Note C — Segment Reporting
The Company changed two segment names during the first quarter of 2022: Performance Alloys and Composites became Performance Materials, and Advanced Materials became Electronic Materials. The Company believes these names better represent the markets served and the advanced next-generation product solutions provided to our customers. Other than the name changes, there were no changes in the composition or structure of the Company's reportable segments in the first half of 2022.
The Company has the following reportable segments: Performance Materials, Electronic Materials, Precision Optics, and Other. The Company’s reportable segments represent components of the Company for which separate financial information is available that is utilized on a regular basis by the Chief Executive Officer, the Company's chief operating decision maker, in determining how to allocate the Company’s resources and evaluate performance.
Performance Materials provides advanced engineered solutions comprised of beryllium and non-beryllium containing alloy systems and custom engineered parts in strip, bulk, rod, plate, bar, tube, and other customized shapes.
Electronic Materials produces advanced chemicals, microelectric packaging, precious metal, non-precious metal, and specialty metal products, including vapor deposition targets, frame lid assemblies, clad and precious metal preforms, high temperature braze materials, and ultra-fine wire.
Precision Optics produces thin film coatings, optical filter materials, sputter-coated, and precision-converted thin film materials.

The Other reportable segment includes unallocated corporate costs and assets.
Beginning with the first quarter of 2022, the Company began using earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA) as the main operating income metric used by management to measure the financial performance of the Company and each segment. The Company made this change because recent acquisitions have resulted in increased purchase accounting amortization expense, which in turn has affected the comparability of results across periods and when compared to other companies. Management believes EBITDA is useful to investors as it better represents the Company's performance excluding the effect of the recent acquisition of significant intangible assets that are now being amortized. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. Although the Company uses EBITDA to assess the performance of its business and for various other purposes, the use of this non-GAAP financial measure as an analytical tool has limitations, and it should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results of operations as reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The below table presents financial information for each segment and a reconciliation of EBITDA to Net Income (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) for the second quarter of 2022 and 2021:

Note D — Revenue Recognition
Net sales consist primarily of revenue from the sale of precious and non-precious specialty metals, beryllium and copper-based alloys, beryllium composites, and other products into numerous end markets. The Company requires an agreement with a customer that creates enforceable rights and performance obligations. The Company generally recognizes revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled upon satisfaction of a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to the customer. Control over a product is generally transferred to the customer when the Company has a present right to payment, the customer has legal title, the customer has physical possession, the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership, and/or the customer has accepted the product.
Transaction Price Allocated to Future Performance Obligations: Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, requires that the Company disclose the aggregate amount of transaction price that is allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied at July 1, 2022. Remaining performance obligations include non-cancelable purchase orders and customer contracts. The guidance provides certain practical expedients that limit this requirement. As such, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.
After considering the practical expedient at July 1, 2022, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was approximately $ 76.3 million.

Accounts receivable, trade represents payments due from customers relating to the transfer of the Company’s products and services. The Company believes that its receivables are collectible and appropriate allowances for doubtful accounts have been recorded. Impairment losses (bad debt) incurred related to our receivables were immaterial during the second quarter of 2022.
Unbilled receivables represent expenditures on contracts, plus applicable profit margin, not yet billed. Unbilled receivables are generally billed and collected within one year. Billings made on contracts are recorded as a reduction of unbilled receivables.
Unearned revenue is recorded for consideration received from customers in advance of satisfaction of the related performance obligations. The Company recognized approximately $ 5.6 million of the December 31, 2021 unearned amounts as revenue during the first six months of 2022.
As a practical expedient, the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component because the period between the transfer of a product or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that product or service will be one year or less. The Company does not include extended payment terms in its contracts with customers.

The effective tax rate for each period in 2022 and 2021 was lower than the statutory tax rate primarily due to the impact of percentage depletion, research and development credits and the foreign derived intangible income deduction. The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2022 included a net discrete income tax benefit of $ 0.4 million, primarily related to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation awards. The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2021 included a net discrete income tax benefit of $ 0.5 million, primarily related to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation awards.

Note I — Customer Prepayments
In 2020, the Company entered into an investment agreement and a master supply agreement with a customer to procure equipment to manufacture product for the customer. The customer provided prepayments to the Company to fund the necessary infrastructure improvements and procure the equipment necessary to supply the customer with the desired product. The Company owns, operates and maintains the equipment that is being used to manufacture product for the customer.
Revenue will be recognized as the Company fulfills purchase orders and ships the commercial product to the customer, as product delivery is considered the satisfaction of the performance obligation.
Additionally, during the second quarter of 2022, the Company entered into an amendment to the investment agreement with the same customer to procure additional equipment to manufacture product for the customer. As of July 1, 2022, the Company has received approximately $ 13.1 million in prepayments under the terms of this agreement.
As of July 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $ 84.6 million and $ 72.6 million, respectively, of prepayments are classified as Unearned income on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The prepayments will remain in Unearned income until commercial purchase orders are received for product serviced out of the equipment, at which time a portion of the purchase order value related to prepayments will be reclassified to Unearned revenue. As of July 1, 2022 $ 1.0 million of the prepayments are classified as Unearned revenue.

Note L — Stock-based Compensation Expense
Stock-based compensation expense, which includes awards settled in shares and in cash, was $ 2.0 million and $ 3.8 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2022, respectively, compared to $ 2.2 million and $ 3.8 million, respectively, in the same periods of 2021.
The Company granted 45,016 stock appreciation rights (SARs) to certain employees during the first six months of 2022. The weighted-average exercise price per share and weighted-average fair value per share of the SARs granted during the six months ended July 1, 2022 were $ 80.85 and $ 25.87 , respectively. The Company estimated the fair value of the SARs using the following weighted-average assumptions in the Black-Scholes model:
Risk-free interest rate 1.56 %
Dividend yield 0.59 %
Volatility 38.5 %
Expected term (in years) 4.4
The Company granted 59,599 stock-settled restricted stock units (RSUs) to certain employees during the first six months of 2022. The Company measures the fair value of stock-settled RSUs based on the closing market price of a share of Materion common stock on the date of the grant. The weighted-average fair value per share was $ 80.87 for stock-settled RSUs granted to employees during the six months ended July 1, 2022. RSUs are generally expensed over the vesting period of three years for employees.
The Company granted stock-settled performance-based restricted stock units (PRSUs) to certain employees in the first six months of 2022. The weighted-average fair value of the stock-settled PRSUs was $ 97.79 per share and will be expensed over the vesting period of three years . The final payout to the employees for all PRSUs will be based upon the Company’s return on invested capital and its total return to shareholders over the vesting period relative to a peer group’s performance over the same period.
At July 1, 2022, unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested portion of all stock-based awards was approximately $ 15.2 million, and is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of the respective grants.
Note M — Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company measures and records financial instruments at fair value. A hierarchy is used for those instruments measured at fair value that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the Company’s assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:
Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
Level 2 — Inputs other than Level 1 inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions developed by the Company, which reflect
those that a market participant would use.

The Company uses a market approach to value the assets and liabilities for financial instruments in the table above. Outstanding contracts are valued through models that utilize market observable inputs, including both spot and forward prices, for the same underlying currencies, metals, and interest rates. The carrying values of the other working capital items and debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate fair values as of July 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company's deferred compensation investments and liabilities are based on the fair value of the investments corresponding to the employees’ investment selections, primarily in mutual funds, based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Deferred compensation investments are primarily presented in Other assets. Deferred compensation liabilities are primarily presented in Other long-term liabilities.
Note N — Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity
The Company uses derivative contracts to hedge exposure to movements in interest rates associated with borrowings, foreign currency exposures, and precious metal and copper exposures. The objectives and strategies for using derivatives in these areas are as follows:
Interest Rate. On March 4, 2022, the Company entered into a $ 100.0 million interest rate swap to hedge the interest rate risk on the Credit Agreement described in Note P. The swap hedges the change in 1-month LIBOR from March 4, 2022 to November 2, 2026. The purpose of this hedge is to manage the risk of changes in the monthly interest payments attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate.
Foreign Currency. The Company sells a portion of its products to overseas customers in their local currencies, primarily the euro and yen. The Company secures foreign currency derivatives, mainly forward contracts and options, to hedge these anticipated sales transactions. The purpose of the hedge program is to protect against the reduction in the dollar value of foreign currency sales from adverse exchange rate movements. Should the dollar strengthen significantly, the decrease in the translated value of the foreign currency sales should be partially offset by gains on the hedge contracts. Depending upon the methods used, the hedge contracts may limit the benefits from a weakening U.S. dollar.
The use of forward contracts locks in a firm rate and eliminates any downside from an adverse rate movement as well as any benefit from a favorable rate movement. The Company may from time to time choose to hedge with options or

a tandem of options, known as a collar. These hedging techniques can limit or eliminate the downside risk but can allow for some or all of the benefit from a favorable rate movement to be realized. Unlike a forward contract, a premium is paid for an option; collars, which are a combination of a put and call option, may have a net premium but can be structured to be cash neutral. The Company will primarily hedge with forward contracts due to the relationship between the cash outlay and the level of risk.
The use of foreign currency derivative contracts is governed by policies approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. A team consisting of senior financial managers reviews the estimated exposure levels, as defined by budgets, forecasts, and other internal data, and determines the timing, amounts, and nature of instruments to use to hedge exposures. Management analyzes the effective hedged rates and the actual and projected gains and losses on the hedging transactions against the program objectives, targeted rates, and levels of risk assumed. Foreign currency contracts are typically layered in at different times for a specified exposure period in order to minimize the impact of market rate movements.
Precious Metals. The Company maintains the majority of its precious metal production requirements on consignment in order to reduce its working capital investment and the exposure to metal price movements. When a product containing precious metal is fabricated and delivered to the customer, the metal content is purchased out of consignment based on the current market price. The price paid by the Company for the precious metal forms the basis for the price charged to the customer for the metal content in the product. This methodology allows for changes in either direction in the market prices of the precious metals used by the Company to be passed through to the customer and reduces the impact changes in prices could have on the Company's margins and operating profit. The consigned metal is owned by financial institutions that charge the Company consignment fees based upon the value of the metal as it fluctuates while on consignment. Each financial institution retains title to its consigned precious metal until it is purchased by the Company, and it is the Company’s typical practice to purchase metal out of consignment only after a product containing that metal has been purchased by one of our customers.
In certain instances, a customer may want to fix the price for the precious metal at the time the sales order is placed rather than at the time of shipment. Setting the sales price at a different date than when the material would be purchased out of consignment potentially creates an exposure to movements in the market price of the metal. Therefore, in these limited situations, the Company may elect to enter into a forward contract to purchase precious metal. The forward contract allows the Company to purchase metal at a fixed price on a specific future date. The price in the forward contract serves as the basis for the price to be charged to the customer. By doing so, the selling price and purchase price are matched, and the Company's price exposure is reduced.
The Company refines precious metal-containing materials for its customers and typically will purchase the refined metal from the customer at current market prices. In limited circumstances, the customer may want to fix the price to be paid at the time of the order as opposed to when the material is refined. The customer may also want to fix the price for a set period of time. The Company may then elect to enter into a hedge contract, either a forward contract or a swap, to fix the price for the estimated quantity of metal to be refined and purchased, thereby reducing the exposure to adverse movements in the price of the metal. The Company may also enter into hedges to mitigate the risk relating to the prices of the metals that we process or refine.
In certain circumstances, the Company also refines metal from the customer and may retain a portion of the refined metal as payment. The Company may elect to enter into a forward contract to sell precious metal to reduce the Company's price exposure in these instances.
The Company may, from time to time, elect to purchase precious metal and hold in inventory rather than on consignment due to potential credit line limitations or other factors. These purchases are infrequent and, when made are typically held for a short duration. A forward contract will be secured at the time of the purchase to fix the price to be paid when the metal is transferred back to the consignment line, thereby limiting any price exposure during the time when the metal was owned by the Company.
The Company will only enter into a derivative contract if there is an underlying identified exposure. Contracts are typically held to maturity. The Company does not engage in derivative trading activities and does not use derivatives for speculative purposes. The Company only uses hedge contracts that are denominated in the same currency or metal as the underlying exposure.

All derivatives are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. If a derivative is designated and effective as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI) and reclassified into income in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's fair value, if any, is recognized in earnings immediately. If a derivative is not a hedge, changes in the fair value are adjusted through income. The fair values of the outstanding derivatives are recorded on the balance sheet as assets (if the derivatives are in a gain position) or liabilities (if the derivatives are in a loss position). The derivative assets and liabilities are classified as short-term or long-term depending upon the contract maturity date.
The following table summarizes the notional amount and the fair value of the Company’s outstanding derivatives not designated as hedging instruments (on a gross basis) and the balance sheet classification as of July 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Legal Proceedings . For general information regarding legal proceedings relating to Chronic Beryllium Disease Claims, refer to Note T "Contingencies and Commitments" in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
One beryllium case was outstanding as of July 1, 2022. The Company does not expect the resolution of this open matter to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. As previously reported, a settlement agreement had been reached in one case, and the case was dismissed during the second quarter.
Other Litigation. The Company is party to several pending legal proceedings and claims arising in the normal course of business. The Company records a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In the event the Company determines that a loss is not probable, but is reasonably possible, and it becomes possible to develop what the Company believes to be a reasonable range of possible loss, then the Company will include disclosure related to such matters. To the extent there is a reasonable possibility that the losses could exceed any amounts accrued, the Company will adjust the accrual in the period the determination is made, disclose an estimate of the additional loss or range of loss, indicate that the estimate is immaterial with respect to its financial statements as a whole or, if the amount of such adjustment cannot be reasonably estimated, disclose that an estimate cannot be made.

On October 14, 2020, Garett Lucyk, et al. v. Materion Brush Inc., et. al. , case number 20CV0234, a wage and hour purported collective and class action, was filed in the Northern District of Ohio against the Company and its subsidiary, Materion Brush Inc. (collectively, the Company). Plaintiff, a former hourly production employee at the Company's Elmore, Ohio facility, alleges, among other things, that he and other similarly situated employees nationwide are not paid for all time they spend donning and doffing personal protective equipment in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act and Ohio law. Plaintiff filed a motion for conditional certification, which the Company opposed. The motion has been fully briefed, and the parties are awaiting a decision from the court. The Company believes that it has substantive defenses and intends to vigorously defend this suit, absent a negotiated resolution.
Environmental Proceedings. The Company has an active environmental compliance program and records reserves for the probable cost of identified environmental remediation projects. The reserves are established based upon analyses conducted by the Company’s engineers and outside consultants and are adjusted from time to time based upon ongoing studies, the difference between actual and estimated costs, and other factors. The reserves may also be affected by rulings and negotiations with regulatory agencies. The undiscounted reserve balance was $ 4.3 million and $ 4.8 million at July 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and is included in Other liabilities and accrued items and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Environmental projects tend to be long-term, and the final actual remediation costs may differ from the amounts currently recorded.
