Summary of Significant Accounting Policies A. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of SIFCO Industries, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the "Company"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for all of the Company’s U.S. operations and its non-operating subsidiaries. For these operations, all gains and losses from completed currency transactions are included in income. The functional currency for the Company's other non-U.S. subsidiaries is the Euro. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange at the end of the period, and revenues and expenses are translated using average rates of exchange for the period. Foreign currency translation adjustments are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements. These unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s fiscal 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S."). The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for other interim periods or the full year. B. Accounting Policies A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company's fiscal 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. C. Net Income/(Loss) per Share The Company’s net income and loss per basic share has been computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Net income in the current period, per diluted share reflects the effect of the Company's outstanding restricted shares and performance shares under the treasury method. In the prior period, due to the net loss, zero restricted shares are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive. The dilutive effect is as follows: Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 2019 Net Income (loss) $ 2,993 $ ( 1,342 ) Weighted-average common shares outstanding (basic and diluted) 5,691 5,612 Effect of dilutive securities: Restricted shares 161 — Performance shares 38 — Weighted-average common shares outstanding (basic and diluted) 5,890 5,612 Net income (loss) per share – basic: $ 0.53 $ ( 0.24 ) Net income (loss) per share – diluted: $ 0.51 $ ( 0.24 ) Anti-dilutive weighted-average common shares excluded from calculation of diluted earnings per share 219 194 7 D. Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, " Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments " and subsequent updates. ASU 2016-13 changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The new guidance will replace the current incurred loss approach with an expected loss model. The new expected credit loss impairment model will apply to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt instruments, net investments in leases, loan commitments and standby letters of credit. Upon initial recognition of the exposure, the expected credit loss model requires entities to estimate the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). The estimate of expected credit losses should consider historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics should be grouped together when estimating expected credit losses. ASU 2016-13 does not prescribe a specific method to make the estimate, so its application will require significant judgment. ASU 2016-13 is effective for public companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. However, in November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, "Financial Instruments - Credit Loss (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)," which defers the effective date for public filers that are considered smaller reporting companies ("SRC"), as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Because SIFCO is considered a SRC, the Company does not need to implement ASU 2016-13 until October 1, 2023. The Company will continue to evaluate the effect of adopting ASU 2016-13 will have on the Company's results within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and financial condition. In December 2019, ASU 2019-12, " Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes" was issued to (i) reduce the complexity of the standard by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and (ii) improve consistency and simplify other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This ASU is effective beginning October 1, 2021. The Company continues to evaluate the effect adopting this ASU will have on the Company's results within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and financial condition. 2. Inventories Inventories consist of: December 31, 2020 September 30, 2020 Raw materials and supplies $ 7,294 $ 6,548 Work-in-process 3,956 3,786 Finished goods 5,313 5,235 Total inventories $ 16,563 $ 15,569 For a portion of the Company's inventory, cost is determined using the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method. Approximately 48 % and 47 % of the Company’s inventories at December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively, use the LIFO method. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made at the end of each fiscal year based on the inventory levels and costs existing at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must be based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Because the actual results may vary from these estimates, calculations are subject to many factors beyond management’s control, annual results may differ from interim results as they are subject to adjustments based on the differences between the estimates and the actual results. The first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method is used for the remainder of the inventories, which are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. If the FIFO method had been used for the inventories for which cost is determined using the LIFO method, inventories would have been $ 8,414 and $ 8,286 higher than reported at December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively. 3. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss are as follows: December 31, 2020 September 30, 2020 Foreign currency translation adjustment $ ( 4,970 ) $ ( 5,257 ) Retirement plan liability adjustment, net of tax ( 8,000 ) ( 8,211 ) Total accumulated other comprehensive loss $ ( 12,970 ) $ ( 13,468 ) 8 4. Leases The components of lease expense were as follows: Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 Three Months Ended December 31, 2019 Finance lease expense: Amortization of right-of use assets on finance leases $ 16 14 Interest on lease liabilities 1 2 Operating lease expense: 549 537 Variable lease cost: 35 39 Total lease expense $ 601 $ 592 The following table presents the impact of leasing on the consolidated condensed balance sheet. Classification to the consolidated condensed balance sheets December 31, 2020 September 30, 2020 Assets: Finance lease assets Property, plant and equipment, net $ 75 $ 89 Operating lease assets Operating lease right-of-use assets, net 16,709 17,021 Total lease assets $ 16,784 $ 17,110 Current liabilities: Finance lease liabilities Current maturities of long-term debt $ 56 $ 58 Operating lease liabilities Short-term operating lease liabilities 900 991 Non-current liabilities: Finance lease liabilities Long-term debt, net of current maturities 14 22 Operating lease liabilities Long-term operating lease liabilities, net of short-term 16,003 16,188 Total lease liabilities $ 16,973 $ 17,259 Supplemental cash flow and other information related to leases were as follows: December 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 Other Information Cash paid for amounts included in measurement of liabilities: Operating cash flows from operating leases $ 551 $ 537 Operating cash flows from finance leases 1 2 Financing cash flows from finance leases 14 14 Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for new lease liabilities: Operating leases — — December 31, 2020 September 30, 2020 Weighted-average remaining lease term (years): Finance leases 1.4 1.6 Operating leases 14.9 15.2 Weighted-average discount rate: Finance leases 4.7 % 4.8 % Operating leases 5.9 % 5.9 % 9 Future minimum lease under non-cancellable leases at December 31, 2020 were as follows: Finance Leases Operating Leases Year ending September 30, 2021 (excluding the three months ended December 31, 2020) 46 1,392 2022 21 1,690 2023 4 1,624 2024 — 1,639 2025 — 1,636 Thereafter — 17,540 Total lease payments $ 71 $ 25,521 Less: Imputed interest ( 1 ) ( 8,618 ) Present value of lease liabilities $ 70 $ 16,903 5. Debt Debt consists of: December 31, 2020 September 30, 2020 Revolving credit agreement $ 9,147 $ 12,870 Foreign subsidiary borrowings 7,883 5,759 Finance lease obligations 70 80 Other, net of unamortized debt issuance costs $( 18 ) and $( 20 ), respectively 5,685 5,911 Total debt 22,785 24,620 Less – current maturities ( 19,299 ) ( 20,014 ) Total long-term debt $ 3,486 $ 4,606 Credit Agreement and Security Agreement of 2018 The Company's asset-based Credit Agreement ("Credit Agreement"), Security Agreement (“Security Agreement”) and Export Credit Agreement (the "Export Credit Agreement") are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries and a pledge of 66.67 % of the stock of its first-tier non-U.S. subsidiaries. The $ 35,000 Credit Agreement consists of (i) a senior secured revolving credit facility with a maximum borrowing of $ 30,000 , and (ii) a revolving commitment through the Export Credit Agreement of $ 5,000 which lends amounts to the Company on foreign receivables. The Credit Agreement also has an accordion feature, which allows the Company to increase maximum borrowings by up to $ 10,000 upon consent of the lender under the Credit Agreement (the "Lender") or upon additional lenders joining the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement matures on August 6, 2021. The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants and events of defaults. As set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Company is required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio ("FCCR") of 1.1 :1.0 any time the availability is equal to or less than 12.5 % of the revolving commitment. In the event of a default, the Company may not be able to access the revolver, which could impact the ability to fund working capital needs, capital expenditures and invest in new business opportunities. The total collateral at December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020 was $ 26,724 and $ 26,964 , respectively and the revolving commitment was $ 35,000 for both periods. Total availability at December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020 was $ 16,767 and $ 13,284 , respectively, which exceed both the collateral and total commitment threshold. Since the availability was greater than the 12.5 % of the revolving commitment as of December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, the FCCR calculation was not required. Borrowings will bear interest at the Lender's established domestic rate or LIBOR, plus the applicable margin as set forth in the Credit Agreement. The revolver has a rate based on LIBOR plus 1.5 %, which was 1.7 % at December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively, and the Export Credit Agreement has a rate based on LIBOR plus 1.00 % spread, which was 1.2 % at December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively. The Company also has a commitment fee of 0.25 % under the Credit Agreement to be incurred on the unused balance of the revolver. 10 The Company's Credit Agreement is set to mature in less than twelve months. As such, the Company’s plan is to refinance. However, there are no guarantees that the refinance will be with similar terms to the current Credit Agreement, and if the refinance does not occur, the Company would not be able to meet its debt obligations. Foreign subsidiary borrowings Foreign debt consists of: December 31, 2020 September 30, 2020 Term loan $ 2,783 $ 2,670 Short-term borrowings 3,018 2,620 Factor 2,082 469 Total debt $ 7,883 $ 5,759 Less – current maturities $ ( 5,892 ) ( 3,544 ) Total long-term debt $ 1,991 $ 2,215 Receivables pledged as collateral $ 955 $ 1,859 Interest rates on foreign borrowings are based on Euribor rates which range from 1.0 % to 4.2 %. The Company factors receivables from one of its customers. The Company accounts for the pledge of receivables under this agreement as short-term debt and continues to carry the receivables on its consolidated condensed balance sheets. Debt issuance costs The Company incurred debt issuance costs as it pertains to the Credit Agreement in the amount of $ 212 , and incurred additional costs in fiscal 2019 of $ 75 related to the First and Second Amendments, which is included in the consolidated condensed balance sheets as a deferred charge in other current assets, net of amortization of $ 229 and $ 205 at December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively. Other On April 10, 2020, the Company entered into an unsecured promissory note under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP Loan”). The PPP Loan to the Company was made through JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., a national banking association and the Company’s existing lender. The note has an aggregate principal amount of approximately $ 5,025 , of which $ 261 was repaid in fiscal 2020 and has a two year term. The interest rate on the PPP Loan is 0.98 %, which was deferred for the first six months of the term of the loan. The promissory note evidencing the PPP Loan contains customary events of default. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the repayment of all amounts outstanding, collection of all amounts owed from the Company, and/or filing suit and obtaining judgment against the Company. The loan proceeds were received on April 10, 2020 and were used for payroll, interest on mortgage obligations, rents on leases and utility payments. As of December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, the PPP loan balance was $ 4,764 . PPP Loan recipients can apply for and potentially be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the Paycheck Protection Program. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payroll costs and mortgage interest, rent or utility costs and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. Although the Company intends to file for forgiveness, no assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part. As of December 31, 2020, the Company continues to wait for further guidance regarding application for the forgiveness for all or a portion of the PPP loan. 6. Income Taxes On December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (the "Appropriations Act") was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Appropriations Act, among other things temporarily extends through December 31, 2025, certain expiring tax provisions. Additionally, the Appropriations Act enacts new provisions and extends certain provisions originated within the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"), enacted on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act included provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferral of certain payment requirements for the employer portion of Social Security taxes, net operating loss carryback periods and temporarily increasing the amount of net operating losses that corporations can use to offset income, alternative minimum tax ("AMT") credit refunds, modifications to the net 11 interest deduction limitations, and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The Appropriations Act and CARES Act did not materially affect the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2021 income tax provision, deferred tax assets and liabilities, or related taxes payable. The Company will continue to assess the implications of these and any new relief provisions on its consolidated condensed financial statements but does not expect the impact to be material. For each interim reporting period, the Company makes an estimate of the effective tax rate it expects to be applicable for the full fiscal year for its operations. This estimated effective rate is used in providing for income taxes on a year-to-date basis. The Company’s effective tax rate through the first three months of fiscal 2021 was ( 43 )%, compared with 7 % for the same period of fiscal 2020. The decrease in the effective rate was primarily attributable to a discrete tax benefit recorded during the first three months of fiscal 2021 to adjust deferred taxes recorded in Italy, applied against year-to-date income. Additionally, the effective tax rate decreased as a result of changes in jurisdictional mix of income in fiscal 2021 compared to the same period of fiscal 2020. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to the valuation allowance against the Company’s U.S. deferred tax assets and income in foreign jurisdictions that are taxed at different rates than the U.S. statutory tax rate. Recent positive evidence related to the potential or partial release of the Company's valuation allowance includes profitable U.S. results, however, there continues to be uncertainty as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. As such, the Company has maintained a full valuation allowance on its U.S. net deferred tax assets in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. It is reasonably possible that sufficient positive evidence required to release all, or a portion of the valuation allowance in the U.S. will exist within the next 12 months. The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, Ireland, Italy, and various state and local jurisdictions. 7. Retirement Benefit Plans The Company and certain of its subsidiaries sponsor defined benefit pension plans covering some of its employees. The components of net periodic benefit cost of the Company’s defined benefit plans are as follows: Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 2019 Service cost $ 26 $ 85 Interest cost 175 208 Expected return on plan assets ( 355 ) ( 376 ) Amortization of net loss 211 188 Net periodic cost $ 57 $ 105 During the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company made $ 0 and $ 188 in contributions, respectively, to its defined benefit pension plans. The Company anticipates making $ 296 additional cash contributions to fund its defined benefit pension plans for the balance of fiscal 2021 and will use carryover balances from previous periods that have been available for use as a credit to reduce the amount of cash contributions that the Company is required to make to certain defined benefit plans in fiscal 2021. The Company's ability to elect to use such carryover balance will be determined based on the actual funded status of each defined benefit pension plan relative to the plan's minimum regulatory funding requirements. The Company does not anticipate making cash contributions above the minimum funding requirement to fund its defined benefit pension plans during the balance of fiscal 2021. 8. Stock-Based Compensation The Company has awarded performance and restricted shares under the Company's 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("2007 Plan") and the Company's 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (Amended and Restated as of November 16, 2016) (as further amended, the "2016 Plan"). The aggregate number of shares that may be awarded by the Company under the 2016 Plan is 1,196 shares, less any shares previously awarded and subject to an adjustment for the forfeiture of any unvested shares. In addition, shares that may be awarded are subject to individual recipient award limitations. The shares awarded under the 2016 Plan may be made in multiple forms, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted or unrestricted stock, and performance related shares. Any such award is exercisable no later than ten years from the date of the grant. The performance shares that have been awarded under both plans generally provide for the vesting of the Company’s common shares upon the Company achieving certain defined financial performance objectives during a period up to three years following the making of such award. The ultimate number of common shares of the Company that may be earned pursuant to an award ranges from a minimum of no shares to a maximum of 200 % of the initial target number of performance shares awarded, depending on the level of the Company’s achievement of its financial performance objectives. Beginning in fiscal 2020, the maximum share that may be achieved was reduced to 150 % of target. 12 With respect to such performance shares, compensation expense is being accrued based on the probability of meeting the performance target. The Company is currently recognizing compensation expense for one of its tranches of awards where it has concluded it is probable that the performance criteria for that award will be met, while the Company is not currently recognizing compensation expense for two tranches of awards where it had concluded that it is not probable that the performance criteria for those awards will be met. During each future reporting period, such expense may be subject to adjustment based upon the Company's financial performance, which impacts the number of common shares that it expects to vest upon the completion of the performance period. The performance shares were valued at the closing market price of the Company’s common shares on the date of the grant. The vesting of such shares is determined at the end of the performance period. The Company has awarded restricted shares to its directors, officers, and other employees of the Company. The restricted shares were valued at the closing market price of the Company’s common shares on the date of the grant, and such value was recorded as unearned compensation. The unearned compensation is being amortized ratably over the restricted stock vesting period of one year or three years . In fiscal 2021, the Company granted 120 shares under the 2016 Plan to certain key employees. The awards were split into two tranches, 71 performance shares and 49 shares of time-based restricted shares, with a grant date fair value of $ 3.74 per share. The awards vest over three years . If all outstanding share awards are ultimately earned and vest at the target number of shares, there are approximately 572 shares that remain available for award at December 31, 2020. If any of the outstanding share awards are ultimately earned and vest at greater than the target number of shares, up to a maximum of 200 % or 150 % of such target, then a fewer number of shares would be available for award. Stock-based compensation under the 2016 Plan was $ 143 and $ 155 during the first three months of fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, there was $ 656 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the performance shares and restricted shares awarded under the 2016 Plan. The Company expects to recognize this cost over the next 1.6 years. 9.

Commitments and Contingencies In the normal course of business, the Company may be involved in ordinary, routine legal actions. The Company cannot reasonably estimate future costs, if any, related to these matters; however, it does not believe any such matters are material to its financial condition or results of operations. The Company maintains various liability insurance coverages to protect its assets from losses arising out of or involving activities associated with ongoing and normal business operations; however, it is possible that the Company’s future operating results could be affected by future costs of litigation. A subsidiary of the Company, Quality Aluminum Forge, LLC ("Orange"), is currently a defendant in a lawsuit filed by Avco Corporation (“Avco”) in the Pennsylvania State Court, which was filed in August 2019, alleging that certain forged pistons delivered by the Orange plant failed to meet material specifications required by Avco. Avco also sued Arconic, Inc. (“Arconic”), which was the raw material supplier. No specific amount of damages was claimed by Avco and discovery has only recently begun. Orange disputes the allegations made by Avco and has made cross claims against Arconic. Previously, Orange was a defendant with respect to the same action in the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island, which action was dismissed in connection with the movement of the matter to Pennsylvania State Court. Although the Company records reserves for legal disputes and other matters in accordance with GAAP, the ultimate outcomes of these types of matters are inherently uncertain. Actual results may differ significantly from current estimates. Given the current status of this matter, the Company has not recorded a charge, as the Company has not deemed it probable and does not have a reasonable basis on which to establish an estimate. 14 The Company is a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of California, County of Orange, which was filed in August 2017, arising from employee wage-and-hour claims under California law for alleged meal period, rest break, hourly and overtime wage calculation, timely wage payment and necessary expenditure indemnification violations; failure to maintain required wage records and furnish accurate wage statements; and unfair competition. A settlement has been reached and the Company received preliminary court approval on July 13, 2020, following a brief delay caused by COVID-19 closures and restrictions. Class action notices were sent at the end of September and there were no objections to the settlement. On February 4, 2021, the court issued a tentative ruling to grant final approval. The final approval hearing is scheduled for April 16, 2021. The Company previously recorded an estimated loss of $ 315 , which was determined to be an adequate reserve to cover the settlement. During fiscal 2020, the Company received notice from the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers Union that they were disclaiming all interest in representing certain hourly employees at the Company’s Cleveland facility. Subsequently, the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers Union filed a petition to represent this same group of hourly employees. A mail ballot election took place in June 2020 and the National Labor Relations Board certified the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers as the elected representative of the Company’s hourly production employees. The Company’s obligations will be more fully understood following the ratification of a collective bargaining agreement. In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the insurance claim related to the fire on December 26, 2018 at the Orange location was finalized with the Company's insurance carrier. The Company continues to work diligently to restore the final two of the six presses damaged in the fire, which both continue to be on track to be completed by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2021; however, no assurances can be made that the restoration will be completed within such timeframe. Restoration of the building structure is nearly complete. Having finalized the claim with its insurance carrier, proceeds in the amount of $ 3,148 was received in December 2020. As noted in the table below, $ 3,099 was recognized within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and the balance was separately designated to the landlord for the continued restoration of the damaged building as prescribed under the lease arrangement. The Company has business interruption insurance coverage, of which $ 546 of the amount received was reflected within the cost of goods sold line within the consolidated condensed statement of operations.
