Vishay Precision Group, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
Background
Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (“VPG” or the “Company”) is an internationally recognized designer, manufacturer and marketer of sensors, and sensor-based measurement systems, as well as specialty resistors and strain gages based upon the Company's proprietary technology. The Company provides precision products and solutions, many of which are “designed-in” by its customers, specializing in the growing markets of stress, force, weight, pressure, and current measurements.
Interim Financial Statements
These unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial statements and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for the presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The information furnished reflects all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair summary of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, included in VPG’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2020. The results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. VPG reports interim financial information for 13-week periods beginning on a Sunday and ending on a Saturday, except for the first quarter, which always begins on January 1, and the fourth quarter, which always ends on December 31. The four fiscal quarters in 2020 and 2019 end on the following dates:
2020 2019
Quarter 1 March 28, March 30,
Quarter 2 June 27, June 29,
Quarter 3 September 26, September 28,
Quarter 4 December 31, December 31,
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13, and subsequent related amendments to ASU 2016-13, replace the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss model that requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical loss data, customer specific information, current market conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions to inform adjustments to historical loss data. The Company adopted this ASU, effective January 1, 2020, using the modified retrospective approach, and the effect on the Company's consolidated condensed financial statements and related disclosures was not material.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820)." This ASU modifies the disclosures on fair value measurements by removing the requirements to disclose the amount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the policy for timing of such transfers. The ASU expands the disclosure requirements for Level 3 fair value measurements, primarily focused on changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2020, and the effect on the Company's disclosures in its consolidated condensed financial statements was not material.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, "Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans." This ASU amends Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 715 to add, remove and clarify disclosure requirements related to defined benefit and pension and other postretirement plans. The amendments in this ASU are
-12-
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation (continued)
effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the standard to determine the impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. ASU 2019-12, "Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes". This ASU amends Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740 by removing certain exceptions to the general principles, clarifying and amending existing guidance. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is evaluating the standard to determine the impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Contract Assets & Liabilities
Contract assets are established when revenues are recognized prior to a contractual payment due from the customer. When a payment becomes due based on the contract terms, the Company will reduce the contract asset and record a receivable. Contract liabilities are deferred revenues that are recorded when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance obligations. Our payment terms vary by the type and location of the products offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant.
The outstanding contract assets and liability accounts were as follows (in thousands) :

The amount of revenue recognized during the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2020 that was included in the contract liability balance at December 31, 2019 was $ 3.7 million.
Practical Expedients
The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts that have a duration of one year or less and for contracts that are substantially complete. The Company treats shipping and handling activities as fulfillment costs.
Note 3 – Acquisitions
Dynamic Systems Inc.
On November 1, 2019, VPG completed the acquisition of New York-based Dynamic Systems Inc. ("DSI"), a provider of specialized dynamic thermal-mechanical test and simulation systems used to develop new metal alloys and optimize production processes, for a purchase price of $ 40.3 million, subject to customary adjustments. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company received $ 0.2 million from escrow as a purchase price adjustment, resulting in a reduction of goodwill. Additionally, it was determined that an earn out, which was part of the purchase price, was not achieved. DSI reports into the Company's Weighing and Control Systems segment. The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values assigned to the assets and liabilities of DSI as of November 1, 2019 (in thousands):

Note 5 – Leases
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the new lease accounting standard using the modified retrospective method of applying the new standard at the adoption date. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception or modification of such agreement. The arrangement is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset for a period in exchange for consideration.
-15-
Note 5 - Leases (continued)
Lease right of use assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the expected term at commencement date. As the implicit rate is not determinable in most of the Company's leases, the Company's incremental borrowing rate is used as the basis to determine the present value of future lease payments. Refer to Note 7 for discussion of the Company's borrowing rate. The expected lease terms include options to extend or terminate. The period which is subject to an option to extend the lease is included in the lease term if it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. Some of these leases contain variable payment provisions that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the lease commencement date and are therefore not included in our future minimum lease payments. Variable payments are expensed in the periods incurred. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Additionally, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allows the carryforward the historical lease classification. The Company also made an election to exclude from balance sheet reporting leases with initial terms of 12 months or less and to exclude non-lease components from lease right of use assets and corresponding liabilities.
The Company primarily leases office and manufacturing facilities in addition to vehicles, which have remaining terms of less than one year to six years . The Company has no finance leases. One of the Company's indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into a lease agreement as tenant related to a property in Israel. Such lease agreement provides that we will lease a new building containing approximately 121,400 square feet. The facility was made available to the Company during the second quarter of 2020, at which time the Company established an operating right of use asset and operating lease liability, with a lease term of 12.5 years, of $ 14.8 million, in accordance with the terms of the lease agreement.

Note 6 – Income Taxes
VPG calculates the tax provision for interim periods using an estimated annual effective tax rate methodology based on projected full-year pre-tax earnings among the taxing jurisdictions in which we operate with adjustments for discrete items. The effective tax rate for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2020 was 28.1 % compared to 26.4 % for the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2019. The effective tax rate for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2020 was 30.9 % compared to 26.9 % for the six fiscal months ended June 29, 2019. The tax rate in the current fiscal quarter is higher than the prior year fiscal quarter, primarily due to changes in the mix of worldwide income.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to income taxes imposed by the U.S., various states, and the foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. Each jurisdiction establishes rules that set forth the years which are subject to examination by its tax authorities. While the Company believes the tax positions taken on its tax returns for each jurisdiction are supportable, they may still be challenged by the jurisdiction's tax authorities. In anticipation of such challenges, the Company has established reserves for tax-related uncertainties. These liabilities are based on the Company’s best estimate of the potential tax exposures in each respective jurisdiction. It may take a number of years for a final tax liability in a jurisdiction to be determined, particularly in the event of an audit. If an uncertain matter is determined favorably, there could be a reduction in the Company’s tax expense. An unfavorable determination could increase tax expense and could require a cash payment, including interest and penalties.

2020 Credit Agreement
On March 20, 2020, the Company entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2020 Credit Agreement”) among the Company, the lenders, Citizens Bank, National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as joint lead arrangers and JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association as agent for such lenders (the “Agent”), pursuant to which the terms of the Company’s multi-currency, secured credit facility was revised to provide a secured revolving facility (the “2020 Revolving Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $ 75.0 million, with a sublimit of $ 10.0 million which can be used for letters of credit for the account of the Company or its subsidiaries that are parties to the Credit Agreement, the proceeds of which may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, and a portion of which were used to refinance the Company’s existing revolving credit facility in the amount of $ 34 million and the Company’s existing term loans as follows: (1) the “2015 U.S. Closing Date Term Facility” in an aggregate principal amount of $ 2.0
-17-
Note 7 - Long-Term Debt (continued)
million; and (2) the "2015 U.S. Delayed Draw Term Facility" in an aggregate principal amount of $ 5.0 million. The aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Revolving Facility may be increased by a maximum of $ 25.0 million upon the request of the Company, subject to the terms of the 2020 Credit Agreement. The 2020 Credit Agreement terminates on March 20, 2025.
Interest payable on amounts borrowed under the 2020 Revolving Facility is based upon, at the Company’s option, (1) the greatest of: the Agent’s prime rate, the Federal Funds rate, or a LIBOR floor (the “Base Rate”), or (2) LIBOR or CDOR plus a specified margin. An interest margin of 0.25 % is added to Base Rate loans. Depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio, an interest rate margin ranging from 1.50 % to 2.75 % per annum is added to the applicable LIBOR or CDOR rate to determine the interest payable on the Libor or CDOR loans. The Company is required to pay a quarterly fee of 0.25 % per annum to 0.40 % per annum on the unused portion of the 2020 Revolving Facility, which is determined based on the Company’s leverage ratio each quarter. Additional customary fees apply with respect to letters of credit.
The obligations of the Company under the 2020 Credit Agreement are secured by pledges of stock in certain domestic and foreign subsidiaries, as well as guarantees by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. The obligations of the Company and the guarantors under the 2020 Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all the assets (excluding real estate) of the Company and such guarantors. The 2020 Credit Agreement restricts the Company from paying cash dividends and requires the Company to comply with other customary covenants, representations, and warranties, including the maintenance of specific financial ratios. The financial maintenance covenants include interest coverage ratio and a leverage ratio. If the Company is not in compliance with any of these covenant restrictions, the credit facility could be terminated by the lenders, and all amounts outstanding pursuant to the credit facility could become immediately payable.

Note 10 – Share-Based Compensation
The Amended and Restated Vishay Precision Group, Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Program (as amended and restated, the “Plan”) permits the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock. At June 27, 2020, the Company had reserved 371,637 shares of common stock for future grants of equity awards (restricted stock, unrestricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), or stock options) pursuant to the Plan. If any outstanding awards are forfeited by the holder or canceled by the Company, the underlying shares would be available for re-grant to others.
On March 5, 2020, VPG’s three current executive officers were granted annual equity awards in the form of RSUs, of which 75 % are performance-based. The awards have an aggregate target grant-date fair value of $ 1.2 million and were comprised of 44,269 RSUs. Twenty-five percent of these awards will vest on January 1, 2023, subject to the executives’ continued employment. The performance-based portion of the RSUs will also vest on January 1, 2023, subject to the executives' continued employment and the satisfaction of certain performance objectives relating to three-year cumulative “adjusted free cash flow” and net earnings goals, each weighted equally.
On March 16, 2020, certain VPG employees were granted annual equity awards in the form of RSUs, of which 75 % are performance-based. The awards have an aggregate grant-date fair value of $ 0.4 million and were comprised of 18,940 RSUs. Twenty-five percent of these awards will vest on January 1, 2023 subject to the employees' continued employment. The performance-based portion of the RSUs will also vest on January 1, 2023, subject to the employees' continued employment and the satisfaction of certain performance objectives relating to three-year cumulative earnings and cash flow goals, each weighted equally.
On May 21, 2020, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of an aggregate of 15,564 RSUs to the independent board members of the Board of Directors and to the non-executive Chairman of the Board of Directors. The awards have an aggregate grant-date fair value of $ 0.3 million and will vest on the earlier of the 2021 Annual Stockholders Meeting or May 21, 2021, subject to the directors' continued service on the Board of Directors.
Vesting of equity awards is subject to acceleration under certain circumstances.

Note 10 - Share-Based Compensation (continued)
The amount of compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued. VPG determines compensation cost for RSUs based on the grant-date fair value of the underlying common stock. The Company recognizes compensation cost for RSUs that are expected to vest and for which performance criteria are expected to be met. The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense recognized (in thousands) :

Note 11 – Segment Information
VPG reports in three product segments: the Foil Technology Products segment, the Force Sensors segment, and the Weighing and Control Systems segment. The Foil Technology Products reporting segment is comprised of the foil resistor and strain gage operating segments. The Force Sensors reporting segment is comprised of transducers, load cells, and modules. The Weighing and Control Systems reporting segment is comprised of complete systems which include load cells and instrumentation for weighing, force control and force measurement for a variety of uses such as process control on-board weighing applications.
VPG evaluates reporting segment performance based on multiple performance measures including third party net revenues, gross profits and operating income, exclusive of certain items. Management believes that evaluating segment performance, excluding items such as restructuring costs, executive severance costs, and other items is meaningful because it provides insight with respect to the intrinsic operating results of VPG.

Foreign currency exchange gains and losses represent the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2020, the change in foreign exchange gains and losses during the period, as compared to the prior year period, is largely due to exposure to currency fluctuations with the Canadian dollar, the Israeli Shekel, and the British pound.
Executive Severance Costs
During the second fiscal quarter of 2019, the Company recorded $ 0.6 million of severance costs associated with the resignation of an executive office of the Company. The severance costs consisted of payments and other benefits as specified in the executive officer's resignation agreement.
Note 14 – Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, establishes a valuation hierarchy of the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions.
An asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following table provides the financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis (in thousands) :
Fair value measurements at reporting date using:

-24-
Note 14 - Fair Value Measurements (continued)
The Company maintains non-qualified trusts, referred to as “rabbi” trusts, to fund payments under deferred compensation and non-qualified pension plans. Rabbi trust assets consist primarily of marketable securities, classified as available-for-sale money market funds at June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and company-owned life insurance assets. The marketable securities held in the rabbi trusts are valued using quoted market prices on the last business day of the period. The company-owned life insurance assets are valued in consultation with the Company’s insurance brokers using the value of underlying assets of the insurance contracts. The fair value measurement of the marketable securities held in the rabbi trust is considered a Level 1 measurement and the measurement of the company-owned life insurance assets is considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of the long-term debt, excluding capitalized deferred financing costs, at June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019 approximates its carrying value. The revolving debt and term loans are reset on a quarterly basis based on current market rates, plus a base rate as specified in the corresponding debt agreements. The fair value of long-term debt is considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents whose carrying amounts reported in the consolidated condensed balance sheets approximate their fair values.
Note 15 – Restructuring Costs
Restructuring costs reflect the cost reduction programs implemented by the Company. Restructuring costs are expensed during the period in which the Company determines it will incur those costs and all requirements for accrual are met. Because these costs are recorded based upon estimates, actual expenditures for the restructuring activities may differ from the initially recorded costs. If the initial estimates are too low or too high, the Company could be required to either record additional expense in future periods or to reverse part of the previously recorded charges.
The Company recorded $ 0.5 million and $ 0.0 million of restructuring costs during the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively, and $ 0.6 million and $ 0.0 million for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively. Restructuring costs were comprised primarily of employee terminations costs, including severance and statutory retirement allowances, and were incurred in connections with various cost reduction programs.
The following table summarizes recent activity related to all restructuring programs. The accrued restructuring liability balance as of June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, is included in Other accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheets (in thousands) :
