Note 12:  Investment in Affiliate

The Company’s investment in its non-consolidated affiliate is accounted for under the equity method.  The Company has a 50 percent ownership of Nikkei Heat Exchanger Company, Ltd. (“NEX”).  At March 31, 2014 and 2013, we included the Company’s investment in NEX of $3.4 million and $3.3 million, respectively, in other noncurrent assets.  At March 31, 2014, the investment in NEX is equal to the Company's investment in the underlying assets.

We report the results of operations for NEX in the consolidated financial statements using a one-month reporting delay.  We report equity in earnings from non-consolidated affiliates within other income and expense in the consolidated statements of operations.  The Company’s share of NEX’s earnings (loss) for the years ended March 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 were $0.7 million, $0.3 million and ($0.1) million, respectively.
