Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of results for the interim period have been included. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended July 3, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 3, 2020. All references to years in these financial statements are to fiscal years.
COVID-19 Impacts On Our Business
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic. In response, we established two clear priorities; first, the health and safety of our employees and their families and, second, continuing to meet the needs of our customers and secure the financial well-being of the Company by implementing short-term actions to maintain liquidity. While substantially all of our operations and production activities have, to-date, remained operational as many are considered essential and exempt from closure directives, the pandemic did have a material impact on our financial statements in the last six months of the fiscal year ended October 3, 2020. We recorded impairment charges on long-lived assets and recorded inventory reserves for businesses impacted by lower sales. We continue to monitor the impacts of COVID-19 on the fair value of assets. While we do not currently anticipate any additional material impairments on assets as a result of COVID-19, future changes in sales, earnings and cash flows related to long-lived assets to be held and used and goodwill could cause these assets to become impaired. COVID-19 is discussed in more detail throughout “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year's presentation. Management does not consider the amounts reclassified to be material.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

Standard |  | Description |  | Financial Statement Effect or Other Significant Matters
ASU no. 2016-13 Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments |  | The standard replaces the incurred loss model with the current expected credit loss (CECL) model to estimate credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. The CECL model requires a Company to estimate credit losses expected over the life of the financial assets based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The provisions of the standard are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment requires a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. |  | We adopted this standard using a modified retrospective approach. Based on immateriality, there was no cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of period of adoption. Upon adoption, we now calculate current expected credits losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost. We utilize factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of accounts receivable, current economic conditions and reasonable forecasted financial information in order to determine expected credit losses for these assets. We are not subject to material receivable credit risk given a significant portion of our sales are generated from contracts with the U.S. Government, prime contractors to the U.S. Government and reputable Fortune 500 companies. The impact of this standard was immaterial to financial statements, related disclosures and internal controls.

Note 2 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers
We recognize revenue from contracts with customers using the five-step model prescribed in ASC 606. The first step is identifying the contract. The identification of a contract with a customer requires an assessment of each party’s rights and obligations regarding the products or services to be transferred, including an evaluation of termination clauses and presently enforceable rights and obligations. Each party’s rights and obligations and the associated terms and conditions are typically determined in purchase orders. For sales that are governed by master supply agreements under which provisions define specific program requirements, purchase orders are issued under these agreements to reflect presently enforceable rights and obligations for the units of products and services being purchased.
Contracts are sometimes modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements. When this occurs, we assess the modification as prescribed in ASC 606 and determine whether the existing contract needs to be modified (and revenue cumulatively caught up), whether the existing contract needs to be terminated and a new contract needs to be created, or whether the existing contract remains and a new contract needs to be created. This is determined based on the rights and obligations within the modification as well as the associated transaction price.
The second step is identifying the performance obligations. A performance obligation is a promise to transfer goods or services to a customer that is distinct in the context of the contract, as defined by ASC 606. We identify a performance obligation for each promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. As part of our assessment, we consider all goods and/or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. The products and services in our contracts are typically not distinct from one another due to their complexity and reliance on each other or, in many cases, we provide a significant integration service. Accordingly, many of our contracts are accounted for as one performance obligation. In limited cases, our contracts have more than one distinct performance obligation, which occurs when we perform activities that are not highly complex or interrelated or involve different product life cycles. Warranties are provided on certain contracts, but do not typically provide for services beyond standard assurances and are therefore not distinct performance obligations under ASC 606.
The third step is determining the transaction price, which represents the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to receive from a customer in exchange for providing the goods or services. There are times when this consideration is variable, for example a volume discount, and must be estimated. Sales, use, value-added, and excise taxes are excluded from the transaction price, where applicable.
The fourth step is allocating the transaction price. The transaction price must be allocated to the performance obligations identified in the contract based on relative stand-alone selling prices when available, or an estimate for each distinct good or service in the contract when standalone prices are not available. Our contracts with customers generally require payment under normal commercial terms after delivery. Payment terms are typically within 30 to 60 days of delivery. The timing of satisfaction of our performance obligations does not significantly vary from the typical timing of payment.
12

Table of Contents
The fifth and final step is the recognition of revenue. We recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. ASC 606 provides guidance to help determine if we are satisfying the performance obligation at a point in time or over time. In determining when performance obligations are satisfied, we consider factors such as contract terms, payment terms and whether there is an alternative use of the product or service. In essence, we recognize revenue when, or as control of, the promised goods or services transfer to the customer.
Under ASC 606, revenue recognized over time using an input method that uses costs incurred to date to measure progress toward completion ("cost-to-cost") was 63% and 63% for the three and nine months ended July 3, 2021. The over time method of revenue recognition is predominantly used in Aircraft Controls and Space and Defense Controls. We use this method for U.S. Government contracts and repair and overhaul arrangements as we are creating or enhancing assets that the customer controls as the assets are being created or enhanced. In addition, many of our large commercial contracts qualify for over-time accounting as our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Our over-time contracts are primarily firm fixed price.
Revenue is recognized on contracts using the cost-to-cost method of accounting as work progresses toward completion as determined by the ratio of cumulative costs incurred to date to estimated total contract costs at completion, multiplied by the total estimated contract revenue, less cumulative revenue recognized in prior periods. We believe that cumulative costs incurred to date as a percentage of estimated total contract costs at completion is an appropriate measure of progress toward satisfaction of performance obligations as this measure most accurately depicts the progress of our work and transfer of control to our customers. Changes in estimates affecting sales, costs and profits are recognized in the period in which the change becomes known using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting, resulting in the cumulative effect of changes reflected in the period. Estimates are reviewed and updated quarterly for substantially all contra cts. For the three and nine months ended July 3, 2021 we recognized additional revenue of $1,962 and $14,497, res pectively for adjustments made to performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods. For the three and nine months ended June 27, 2020 we recognized lower revenues of $6,023 and higher revenues of $3,655, respectively for adjustments made to performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods.
Contract costs include only allocable, allowable and reasonable costs which are included in cost of sales when incurred. For applicable U.S. Government contracts, contract costs are determined in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations and the related Cost Accounting Standards. The nature of these costs includes development engineering costs and product manufacturing costs such as direct material, direct labor, other direct costs and indirect overhead costs. Contract profit is recorded as a result of the revenue recognized less costs incurred in any reporting period. Variable consideration and contract modifications, such as performance incentives, penalties, contract claims or change orders are considered in estimating revenues, costs and profits when they can be reliably estimated and realization is considered probable. Revenue recognized on contracts for unresolved claims or unapproved contract change orders was not material fo r the three and nine months ended July 3, 2021.
As of July 3, 2021, we had contract reserves of $65,988. For contracts with anticipated losses at completion, a provision for the entire amount of the estimated remaining loss is charged against income in the period in which the loss becomes known. Contract losses are determined considering all direct and indirect contract costs, exclusive of any selling, general or administrative cost allocations that are treated as period expenses. Loss reserves are more common on firm fixed-price contracts that involve, to varying degrees, the design and development of new and unique controls or control systems to meet the customers’ specifications. In accordance with ASC 606, we calculate contract losses at the contract level, versus the performance obligation level. Recall reserves are recorded when additional work is needed on completed products for them to meet contract specifications. Contract-related loss reserves are recorded for the additional work needed on completed and delivered products in order for them to meet contract specifications.

Revenue recognized at the point in time control was transferred to the customer was 37% and 37%, respectively for the three and nine months ended July 3, 2021. This method of revenue recognition is used most frequently in Industrial Systems. We use this method for commercial contracts in which the asset being created has an alternative use. We determine the point in time control transfers to the customer by weighing the five indicators provided by ASC 606 - the entity 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 the customer has accepted the asset. When control has transferred to the customer, profit is generated as cost of sales is recorded and as revenue is recognized. Inventory costs include all product manufacturing costs such as direct material, direct labor, other direct costs and indirect overhead cost allocations. Shipping and handling costs are considered costs to fulfill a contract and not considered performance obligations. They are included in cost of sales as incurred.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Unbilled receivables (contract assets) primarily represent revenues recognized for performance obligations that have been satisfied but for which amounts have not been billed. These are included as Receivables on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Contract advances (contract liabilities) relate to payments received from customers in advance of the satisfaction of performance obligations for a contract. We do not consider contract advances to be significant financing components as the intent of these payments in advance are for reasons other than providing a significant financing benefit and are customary in our industry.
Total contract assets and contract liabilities are as follows:

|  | July 3, 2021 |  | October 3, 2020
Unbilled receivables |  | $ | 528,231 |  |  | $ | 493,734 |
Contract advances |  | 259,425 |  |  | 203,338 |
Net contract assets |  | $ | 268,806 |  |  | $ | 290,396 |

The increase in contract assets reflects the net impact of billing less than the amount of revenue recognized during the period. The increase in contract liabilities reflects the net impact of additional contract advances recorded in excess of revenue recognized during the period. For the three and nine months ended July 3, 2021, we recognized $40,082 and $138,181 of r evenue, respectively, that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.
Remaining Performance Obligations
As of July 3, 2021, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) was approximately 4,600,000. We expect to recognize approximately 43% o f that amount as sales over the next twelve months and the balance thereafter.

Note 3 - Acquisitions and Divestitures
On June 29, 2021, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to sell the assets of our Navigation Aids (Navaids) business to Thales. Navaids is engaged in the business of designing, developing, manufacturing and marketing ground and ship-based radio frequency navigation beacons and related antennas for military and civilian applications. The business is based in Salt Lake City, Utah and is included in our Aircraft Controls segment. The transaction is subject to regulatory review and customary closing conditions.
On December 18, 2020, we acquired Genesys Aerosystems Group, Inc. (Genesys), headquartered in Mineral Wells, Texas for a purchase price of $77,600, net of acquired cash. Genesys designs and manufactures a full suite of electronic flight instrument systems and autopilot solutions. This operation is included in our Aircraft Controls segment. The purchase price allocation is subject to adjustments as we obtain additional information for our estimates during the measurement period.
In the first quarter of 2021, we sold a non-core business in our Aircraft Controls segment for $2,081 in net consideration and recorded a loss in other income of $683.
On November 28, 2019, we acquired Gesellschaft für Antriebstechnik mbH and GAT Inc. (GAT), headquartered in Geisenheim, Germany for a purchase price of $54,265, net of acquired cash. GAT designs and manufactures high-end fluid rotating unions and slip rings. This operation is included in our Industrial Systems segment.
In the first quarter of 2020, we sold a non-core business of our Industrial Systems segment for $1,775 in net consideration and recorded a gain in other income of $169.
Note 4 - Receivables
Receivables consist of:

|  | July 3, 2021 |  | October 3, 2020 |
Accounts receivable |  | $ | 364,440 |  |  | $ | 363,089 |  |
Unbilled receivables |  | 528,231 |  |  | 493,734 |  |
Other |  | 8,837 |  |  | 5,025 |  |
Less allowance for credit losses |  | (4,510) |  |  | (6,313) |  |
Receivables, net |  | $ | 896,998 |  |  | $ | 855,535 |  |

We securitize certain trade receivables in transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowings (Securitization Program). We maintain a subordinated interest in a portion of the pool of trade receivables that are securitized. The retained interest, which is included in Receivables in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, is recorded at fair value, which approximates the total amount of the designated pool of accounts receivable. Refer to Note 9, Indebtedness, for additional disclosures related to the Securitization Program.
The allowance for credit losses is based on our assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The allowance is determined by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of the accounts receivable, current economic conditions and reasonable forecasted financial information that may affect a customer’s ability to pay.
Note 5 - Inventories
Inventories, net of reserves, consist of:

|  | July 3, 2021 |  | October 3, 2020
Raw materials and purchased parts |  | $ | 235,703 |  |  | $ | 235,906 |

Note 7 - Leases
We lease certain manufacturing facilities, office space and machinery and equipment globally. At inception we evaluate whether a contractual arrangement contains a lease. Specifically, we consider whether we control the underlying asset and have the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits or outputs from the asset. If the contractual arrangement contains a lease, we then determine the classification of the lease, operating or finance, using the classification criteria described in ASC 842. We then determine the term of the lease based on terms and conditions of the contractual arrangement, including whether the options to extend or terminate the lease are reasonably certain to be exercised. We have elected to not separate lease components from non-lease components, such as common area maintenance charges and instead, account for the lease and non-lease components as a single component.
Our lease right-of-use (ROU) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and our lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments. Operating lease ROU assets are included in Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Finance lease ROU assets are included in Property, plant and equipment and finance lease liabilities are included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Operating lease cost is included in Cost of sales and Selling, general and administrative on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Finance lease cost is included in Cost of sales, Selling, general and administrative and Interest on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings.
The ROU assets and lease liabilities for both operating and finance leases are recognized as of the commencement date at the net present value of the fixed minimum lease payments over the term of the lease, using the discount rate described below. Variable lease payments are recorded in the period in which the obligation for the payment is incurred. Variable lease payments based on an index or rate are initially measured using the index or rate as of the commencement date of the lease and included in the fixed minimum lease payments. For short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less as of the commencement date, we do not recognize a ROU asset or lease liability on our balance sheet; we recognize expense as the lease payments are made over the lease term.
The discount rate used to calculate the present value of our leases is the rate implicit in lease. If the information necessary to determine the rate implicit in the lease is not available, we use our incremental borrowing rate for collateralized debt, which is determined using our credit rating and other information available as of the lease commencement date.

Our U.S. revolving credit facility, which matures on October 15, 2024 has a capacity of $1,100,000 and provides an expansion option, which permits us to request an increase of up to $400,000 to the credit facility upon satisfaction of certain conditions. The credit facility is secured by substantially all of our U.S. assets. The loan agreement contains various covenants which, among others, specify interest coverage and maximum leverage. We are in compliance with all covenants.
The SECT has a revolving credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $35,000, maturing on July 26, 2024. Interest is based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin. A commitment fee is also charged based on a percentage of the unused amounts available and is not material.
On December 13, 2019, we completed the sale of $500,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% senior notes due December 15, 2027 with interest paid semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, which commenced on June 15, 2020. The senior notes are unsecured obligations, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries and contain normal incurrence-based covenants and limitations such as the ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, make other restricted payments and investments, create liens and certain corporate acts such as mergers and consolidations. The aggregate net proceeds were used to repay indebtedness under our U.S. revolving credit facility, thereby increasing the unused portion of our U.S. revolving credit facility.

On December 13, 2019, we issued a notice of redemption to the holders of our 5.25% senior notes due on December 1, 2022, to redeem and retire all of the outstanding notes. The notes were redeemed on January 13, 2020 at 101.313% pursuant to an early redemption right. We redeemed the aggregate principal amount of $300,000 using proceeds drawn from our U.S. revolving credit facility. The associated loss on the redemption includes $3,939 of call premium paid to external bondholders.
The Securitization Program matures on October 29, 2021 and effectively increases our borrowing capacity by up to $80,000. Under the Securitization Program, we sell certain trade receivables and related rights to an affiliate, which in turn sells an undivided variable percentage ownership interest in the trade receivables to a financial institution, while maintaining a subordinated interest in a portion of the pool of trade receivables. Interest for the Securitization Program is based on 30-day LIBOR plus an applicable margin. A commitment fee is also charged based on a percentage of the unused amounts available and is not material. The agreement governing the Securitization Program contains restrictions and covenants which include limitations on the making of certain restricted payments, creation of certain liens, and certain corporate acts such as mergers, consolidations and sale of substantially all assets. The Securitization Program has a minimum borrowing requirement equal to the lesser of either 80% of our borrowing capacity or 100% of our borrowing base, which is a subset of the trade receivables sold under this agreement. As of July 3, 2021, our minimum borrowing requirement was $55,700.

Note 11 - Derivative Financial Instruments
We principally use derivative financial instruments to manage foreign exchange risk related to foreign operations and foreign currency transactions and interest rate risk associated with long-term debt. W e enter into derivative financial instruments with a number of major financial institutions to minimize counterparty credit risk.
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments
We use foreign currency contracts as cash flow hedges to effectively fix the exchange rates on future payments and revenue. To mitigate exposure in movements between various currencies, including the Philippine peso and the British pound, we had outstanding foreign currency forwards with notional amounts of $51,982 at July 3, 2021. These contracts mature at various times through June 2, 2023.
We use forward currency contracts to hedge our net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries. As of July 3, 2021, we had no outstanding net investment hedges.
Interest rate swaps are used to adjust the proportion of total debt that is subject to variable and fixed interest rates. The interest rate swaps are designated as hedges of the amount of future cash flows related to interest payments on variable-rate debt that, in combination with the interest payments on the debt, convert a portion of the variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. At July 3, 2021, we had no outstanding interest rate swaps.
These foreign currency contracts, net investment hedges and interest rate swaps are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at fair value and the related gains or losses are deferred in Shareholders’ Equity as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCIL). These deferred gains and losses are reclassified into the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings, as necessary, during the periods in which the related payments or receipts affect earnings. However, to the extent the foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps are not perfectly effective in offsetting the change in the value of the payments and revenue being hedged, the ineffective portion of these contracts is recognized in earnings immediately. Ineffectiveness was not material in the first nine months of 2021 or 2020.

Table of Contents
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments
We also have foreign currency exposure on balances, primarily intercompany, that are denominated in foreign currencies and are adjusted to current values using period-end exchange rates. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. To minimize foreign currency exposure, we had foreign currency contracts with notional amount s of $119,045 at July 3, 2021. The foreign currency contracts are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at fair value and resulting gains or losses are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. We recorded the following gains or losses on foreign currency contracts which are included in other income or expense and generally offset the gains or losses from the foreign currency adjustments on the intercompany balances that are also included in other income or expense:

Note 12 - Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate fair value. The definition of the fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities.
Level 3 – Inputs for which significant valuation assumptions are unobservable in a market and therefore value is based on the best available data, some of which is internally developed and considers risk premiums that a market participant would require.
Our derivatives are valued using various pricing models or discounted cash flow analyses that incorporate observable market data, such as interest rate yield curves and currency rates, and are classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.
The following table presents the fair values and classification of our financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis, all of which are classified as Level 2.

|  | Balance Sheets location |  | July 3, 2021 |  | October 3, 2020
Foreign currency contracts |  | Other current assets |  | $ | 882 |  |  | $ | 2,862 |
Foreign currency contracts |  | Other assets |  | 5 |  |  | 169 |
|  | Total assets |  | $ | 887 |  |  | $ | 3,031 |
Foreign currency contracts |  | Accrued liabilities and other |  | $ | 1,809 |  |  | $ | 414 |
Foreign currency contracts |  | Other long-term liabilities |  | 247 |  |  | — |
|  | Total liabilities |  | $ | 2,056 |  |  | $ | 414 |

Our only financial instrument for which the carrying value differs from its fair value is long-term debt. At July 3, 2021, the fair value of long-term debt was $943,132 compared to its carrying value of $926,695. The fair value of long-term debt is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and was estimated based on quoted market prices.

Note 15 - Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended July 3, 2021 were 25.7% and 23.9%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended July 3, 2021 is higher than expected from applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% to earnings before income taxes due to tax on earnings generated outside the U.S. Further, there were beneficial provision to return adjustments primarily associated with an increase in the U.S. R&D tax credit. This benefit was offset by an expense resulting from the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities due to a tax rate increase in the UK.
The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended June 27, 2020 were 46.1% and 17%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months and nine months ended June 27, 2020 varies from what would be expected by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% to earnings before income taxes, primarily due to provision to return adjustments associated with an increase in foreign tax credit utilization. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 27, 2020 also reflects a low earnings before income taxes base.

OVERVIEW
We are a worldwide designer, manufacturer and systems integrator of high performance precision motion and fluid controls and control systems for a broad range of applications in aerospace and defense and industrial markets.
Within the aerospace and defense market, our products and systems include:
•Defense market - primary and secondary flight controls for military aircraft, stabilization and automatic ammunition loading controls for armored combat vehicles, tactical and strategic missile steering controls and gun aiming controls.
•Commercial aircraft market - primary and secondary flight controls for commercial aircraft.
•Commercial space market - satellite positioning controls and thrust vector controls for space launch vehicles.
In the industrial market, our products are used in a wide range of applications including:
•Industrial automation market - components and systems for injection and blow molding machinery, heavy industry applications for steel and aluminum production, metal forming presses, flight simulation motion control systems and material and automotive structural and fatigue testing systems.
•Medical market - components and systems for enteral clinical nutrition and infusion therapy pumps, CT scan medical equipment, ultrasonic sensors and surgical handpieces and sleep apnea equipment.
•Energy market - control and safety components for steam and gas power generation turbines and oil and gas exploration components and systems.
We operate under three segments, Aircraft Controls, Space and Defense Controls and Industrial Systems. Our principal manufacturing facilities are located in the United States, Philippines, United Kingdom, Germany, Czech Republic, Italy, Costa Rica, China, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Japan, Canada, India and Lithuania.
Under ASC 606, 63% of revenue was recognized over time for the quarter ended July 3, 2021, using the cost-to-cost method of accounting. The over-time method of revenue recognition is predominantly used in Aircraft Controls and Space and Defense Controls. We use this method for U.S. Government contracts and repair and overhaul arrangements as we are creating or enhancing assets that the customer controls. In addition, many of our large commercial contracts qualify for over-time accounting as our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
For the quarter ended July 3, 2021, 37% of revenue was recognized at the point in time control transferred to the customer. This method of revenue recognition is used most frequently in Industrial Systems. We use this method for commercial contracts in which the asset being created has an alternative use. We determine the point in time control transfers to the customer by weighing the five indicators provided by ASC 606. When control has transferred to the customer, profit is generated as cost of sales is recorded and as revenue is recognized.
We concentrate on providing our customers with products designed and manufactured to the highest quality standards. Our technical experts work collaboratively around the world, delivering capabilities for mission-critical solutions. These core operational principles are necessary as our products are applied in demanding applications, "When Performance Really Matters®." By capitalizing on these core foundational strengths, we believe we have achieved a leadership position in the high performance, precision controls market. Additionally, these strengths yield a broad control product portfolio, across a diverse base of customers and end markets.

We focus on improving shareholder value through strategic revenue growth, both organic and acquired, through improving operating efficiencies and manufacturing initiatives and through utilizing low cost manufacturing facilities without compromising quality. Historically, we have taken a balanced approach to capital deployment in order to maximize shareholder returns over the long-term. Our activities have included strategic acquisitions, share buybacks and dividend payments. As we adapt to the changing COVID-19 environment, we believe we are well positioned to invest in our business and have returned to a balanced capital deployment strategy. We will organically invest in our operations and explore opportunities to make strategic acquisitions and return capital to shareholders.
Acquisitions and Divestitures
All of our acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method and, accordingly, the operating results for the acquired companies are included in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings from the respective dates of acquisition. Under purchase accounting, we record assets and liabilities at fair value and such amounts are reflected in the respective captions on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The purchase price described for each acquisition below is net of any cash acquired, includes debt issued or assumed and the fair value of contingent consideration.

COVID-19 IMPACTS ON OUR BUSINESS
The spread of the COVID-19 outbreak has disrupted businesses on a global scale. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization classified the outbreak as a pandemic. As we entered this crisis, the Company established two clear priorities: first and foremost the health and safety of our employees and their families, and second, continuing to meet the needs of our customers and secure the financial well-being of the Company. Substantially all of our operations and production activities have, to-date, remained operational. In response to the COVID-19 crisis, we implemented changes in our work practices to maintain a safe working environment for production employees at our facilities, while enabling other employees to productively work from home. As we commence bringing employees back to the workplace and return to in-person meetings with customers and suppliers, we are adopting a flexible work approach. This will allow for a smooth transition from COVID-19 conditions to a future that better meets the needs of the business and the interests of our employees. As economic activity recovers, we will continue to monitor the situation, assessing further possible implications on our operations, supply chain, liquidity, cash flow and customer orders. We believe that our existing financial arrangements are sufficient to meet our operating needs, and have adequate borrowings under short and long-term arrangements that could provide additional relief if necessary.

Net sales increased in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020 as sales growth in Space and Defense Controls continued and as Aircraft Controls and Industrial Systems started to recover from the impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Net sales through the first three quarters are down marginally in comparison to the first three quarters of 2020 due to the timing of the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Gross margin increased in the third quarter and through the first three quarters of 2021 compared to the same periods of 2020 due to the absence of last year's $19 million COVID-19 related inventory write-down in the third quarter. Excluding this charge, gross margin increased modestly in the same period of 2021 compared to 2020. We benefited from increased sales volume across all segments in the third quarter combined with favorable sales mix within Aircraft Controls and Industrial Systems through the first three quarters of 2021.
Research and development expenses increased across all segments in the third quarter and through the first three quarters of 2021 compared to the same periods of 2020. The incorporation of the Genesys acquisition and higher activity across development programs within Aircraft Controls increased expenses $3 million and $6 million, respectively. Research and development expenses also increased in Industrial Systems by $2 million in the third quarter, due to higher innovation spend.
In the third quarter of 2021, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales decreased as compared to the third quarter of 2020 as cost containment activities in response to the COVID-19 pandemic provided savings, primarily in Space and Defense Controls and Industrial Systems. However, selling, general and administrative expenses for the first three quarters of 2021 remain slightly higher as a percentage of sales than the same period of 2020, as our cost structure did not decrease at the same rate as our sales declined.
Interest expense through the first three quarters of 2021 decreased compared to the same period of 2020 due to lower interest rates on outstanding debt.
Other expense in the third quarter of 2021 benefited from $3 million of lower non-service pension expense when compared to the same period of 2020. In the first three quarters of 2021, other expense included a $6 million pension curtailment gain associated with the termination of a foreign pension plan. Other expense in the first three quarters of 2020 included $11 million of non-service pension expense, as well as a $4 million call premium as we redeemed our $300 million aggregate principal 5.25% senior notes.
Through the first three quarters of 2021, the effective tax rate differs from the same period of 2020. In the first three quarters of 2021, we revalued our deferred tax liabilities due to an increase in the U.K. tax rate that will become effective in 2023. During the same period of 2020, the effective tax rate was low due to foreign tax credit utilization associated with a prior year tax return filing, and due to the low earnings before income tax base.

Table of Contents
The change in twelve-month backlog at July 3, 2021 as compared with the twelve-month backlog at June 27, 2020 was driven by increases across all markets. Backlog increased in Aircraft Controls due to the timing of commercial aircraft orders and additional military development programs. Backlog also increased in Space and Defense Controls driven by higher orders for our new turret program and by increases in space satellite programs. The Industrial Systems backlog increased due to recovering demand for core industrial and industrial components products.

Aircraft Controls' net sales increased in the third quarter of 2021 due to stronger commercial OEM sales as compared to the third quarter of 2020. Through the first three quarters of 2021, as compared to the first three quarters of 2020, the impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected commercial OEM and aftermarket programs.
Across our commercial aircraft programs, the COVID-19 pandemic greatly reduced airline traffic and orders for new aircraft. Also our airframe customers refined their production forecasts and worked down their inventory levels during the second half of 2020. During the our third quarter of 2021, U.S. domestic commercial air traffic began to recover; however, international travel has remained muted and wide body production rates continue to be pressured. In the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020, sales increased $14 million across our commercial OEM programs and $10 million across our commercial aftermarket programs. However, within military programs, aftermarket sales decreased $22 million across a broad range of programs. We have seen a general slowdown in aftermarket sales as a result of our customers working down their inventory levels after an initial buildup during the early phases of COVID-19. Mostly offsetting this decline were increases across our other military OEM programs, including higher amounts of funded development and the newly acquired sales from the Genesys acquisition.
The sales decline in the first three quarters of 2021 compared to the same period of the 2020 was largely due to the COVID-19 pandemic affecting the commercial aircraft business. Commercial OEM sales declined $110 million and commercial aftermarket sales declined $14 million as the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic affected all of our programs' sales in 2020. Partially offsetting the declines was a $56 million increase across our military programs including funded development programs, the F-35 program, foreign military programs and sales from Genesys.
Operating margin increased in the third quarter and through the first three quarters of 2021 compared to the same periods of 2020 due to the absence of last year's $53 million COVID-19 related impairment and restructuring charges. Excluding these charges, adjusted operating margin in the third quarter and through the first three quarters of 2020 was 4.4% and 9.0%, respectively. In the third quarter of 2021, higher sales volume and a more favorable sales mix drove operating margin improvement when compared to the adjusted operating margin in the same period of 2020. Through the first three quarters of 2021, operating margin was lower due primarily to the sales decline in our commercial aircraft market when compared to the adjusted operating margin in the same period of 2020. In addition, higher operating costs and lower aftermarket sales further reduced operating margins, offsetting the incremental margin associated with higher levels of military OEM sales.

Space and Defense Controls' net sales increased in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020 due to the continued growth in our space and defense markets. In the first three quarters of 2021 compared to the first three quarters of 2020, increased space program sales were partially offset by sales declines in our defense market.
Across our space programs, we continue to benefit from increased government spending on military applications and civil missions. Sales in our space market increased $12 million in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020 due to increases in integrated space vehicles and our satellite avionics programs. Within our defense market, sales increased $9 million, driven by higher levels of defense controls and defense component sales.
The sales changes in the first three quarters of 2021 compared to the first three quarters of 2020 were primarily driven by sales increases in our space market. Sales for our space programs increased $41 million due to increases in launch vehicle programs, integrated space vehicles programs and other development work. Partially offsetting the sales increase was a $5 million sales decline within our defense market. Sales declined $12 million in missile systems due to the timing of orders for development and production missiles. Additionally, sales declined $12 million in our security programs due to lower bookings and as COVID-19 pandemic restrictions delayed on-site installations. Higher sales across defense component programs and naval programs partially offset these defense sales declines.
Operating margin decreased in the third quarter and through the first three quarters of 2021 compared to the same period of 2020 due primarily to higher costs on firm fixed price development contracts, including $3 million of additional contract loss reserves. We also have an unfavorable sales mix due to the higher proportion of development work. Partially offsetting the operating margin decline was the benefit of cost containment actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic which reduced expenses.

Net sales in Industrial Systems increased in the third quarter of 2021 as compared to the third quarter of 2020, driven by recoveries in our industrial automation market. Sales declined in the first three quarters of 2021 as compared to the first three quarters of 2020 as the recent industrial automation recoveries were more than offset by a decline in our other industrial markets.
Stronger foreign currencies, primarily the Euro relative to the U.S. Dollar, increased sales $9 million and $21 million in the third quarter and in the first three quarters of 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020.
The COVID-19 pandemic, and the associated macroeconomic slowdown and reduced capital investments by our customers, created productivity and demand challenges. Additionally, the decline of the global airline market weakened demand for flight simulation products. These factors started in the second half of our fiscal 2020; however, we have recently started to see signs of recovery. In the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020, capital spending began to accelerate as economies begin to emerge from the pandemic. Sales increased by $18 million in our industrial automation market across several products as companies began to build capacity to meet recovering demand. Partially offsetting these increases was an $11 million decline in our medical market, as the prior year's surge in response to the COVID-19 pandemic moderated.
The sales decline in the first three quarters of 2021 compared to the first three quarters of 2020 was largely due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our simulation and test markets and medical markets, resulting in $14 million and $5 million respective declines. Also, sales into our energy market experienced a $10 million decline. Partially offsetting these declines was an $11 million increase from our industrial automation products, due to the same factors in the third quarter of 2021.
Operating margin increased in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020 due to incremental margin resulting from higher sales volume. Through the first three quarters of 2021, operating margin was flat with the same period of 2020, as the incremental gross margin gained in the third quarter offset the incremental research and development investments made in the quarter.

2021 Outlook – While we begin a return to pre-COVID activities and the macro-economic conditions are improving, the effects of COVID-19 are not behind us. We continue to monitor and assess the changing market conditions. We believe our military aircraft and space markets will remain strong. We expect our industrial automation market will recover and will offset the anticipated softening in our medical market. Also, we continue to work to the production schedules of our major commercial aircraft OEM customers. We expect operating margin will increase due to the absence of last year's $71 million charges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Net earnings in 2021 will also benefit from the absence of last year's $121 million non-cash pension settlement charge, as well as lower non-operating expenses, but be somewhat offset by a higher effective tax rate. We expect diluted earnings per share will range between $4.85 and $5.15, with a midpoint of $5.00.
2021 Outlook for Aircraft Controls – We expect 2021 sales in Aircraft Controls will decline due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our commercial OEM and aftermarket programs over the full year. We also expect the high levels of military aftermarket sales in 2020 do not repeat in 2021. Partially offsetting these declines is an expected growth in military OEM sales, primarily related to higher sales amounts of funded development programs, foreign military programs and F-35. We expect operating margin will increase in 2021 due to the absence of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic related charges and as our operations align with the new, lower levels of customer demand.
2021 Outlook for Space and Defense Controls – We expect 2021 sales in Space and Defense Controls will increase as growth in our space markets offsets a decline in our defense markets. Within our space market, we expect a continuation of the increased government spending on military applications and civil missions. However, within our defense market, we don't expect our missile systems programs and our security programs to recover from the impacts during the first three quarters of 2021. We expect operating margin will decline due to the unfavorable sales mix as compared to the previous year and higher costs on firm fixed price development contracts.
2021 Outlook for Industrial Systems – We expect 2021 sales in Industrial Systems will decline due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our medical business and our simulation and test business. In our medical business, we expect lower sales as the prior year's surge does not repeat. Within our simulation and test business, we expect demand for our flight simulation products does not recover in 2021. Partially offsetting these declines is an expected recovery within our industrial automation business. We expect operating margin will improve due to the absence of last year's COVID-19 pandemic related charges. As compared to 2020's adjusted operating margin of 10.3%, we expect operating margin will decrease due to the lower sales volumes.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

| Nine Months Ended
(dollars in millions) | July 3, 2021 | June 27, 2020 | $ Variance
Net cash provided (used) by: |  |  |
Operating activities | $ | 231 |  | $ | 188 |  | $ | 43 |
Investing activities | (163) |  | (128) |  | (34) |
Financing activities | (63) |  | (46) |  | (17) |

Our available borrowing capacity and our cash flow from operations have provided us with the financial resources needed to make organic investments, fund acquisitive growth and return capital to shareholders.
At July 3, 2021, our cash balances were $92 million, which were primarily held outside of the U.S. Cash flow from our U.S. operations, together with borrowings on our credit facility, fund on-going activities, debt service requirements and future growth investments.
Operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased in the first three quarters of 2021 compared to the first three quarters of 2020 driven by working capital improvements. Through the first three quarters of 2021, cash from inventories improved $96 million, primarily in our Aircraft Controls and Space and Defense Controls segments. Also, accounts payable used $68 million less cash than a year ago, as we have lower amounts of vendor payments. These working capital benefits were partially offset by accounts receivable and customer advances, which provided $85 million and $19 million less cash than a year ago, respectively.
Investing activities
Net cash used by investing activities in the first three quarters of 2021 included $78 million for our acquisition of Genesys and $89 million for capital expenditures.
Net cash used by investing activities in the first three quarters of 2020 included $54 million for our acquisition of GAT and $70 million for capital expenditures.
Financing activities
Net cash used by financing activities in the first three quarters of 2021 included $12 million of net borrowings on our credit facilities. Additionally, financing activities in the first three quarters of 2021 included $26 million to repurchase shares and $24 million of cash dividends.
Net cash provided by financing activities in the first three quarters of 2020 included the net proceeds of issuing our $500 million aggregate principal 4.25% senior notes, which were used to repay a portion of our outstanding borrowings. Additionally, financing activities in the first three quarters of 2020 included $192 million to repurchase shares and $17 million of cash dividends.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any material off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material future effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

CAPITAL STRUCTURE AND RESOURCES
We maintain bank credit facilities to fund our short and long-term capital requirements, including acquisitions. From time to time, we also sell debt and equity securities to fund acquisitions or take advantage of favorable market conditions.
Our U.S. revolving credit facility, which matures on October 15, 2024 has a capacity of $1.1 billion and also provides an expansion option, which permits us to request an increase of up to $400 million to the credit facility upon satisfaction of certain conditions. The U.S. revolving credit facility had an outstanding balance of $363 million at July 3, 2021. The weighted-average interest rate on primarily all of the outstanding credit facility borrowings was 1.84% and is principally based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin, which was 1.75% at July 3, 2021. The credit facility is secured by substantially all of our U.S. assets.
The U.S. revolving credit facility contains various covenants. The minimum for the interest coverage ratio, defined as the ratio of EBITDA to interest expense for the most recent four quarters, is 3.0. The maximum for the leverage ratio, defined as the ratio of net debt to EBITDA for the most recent four quarters, is 4.0. We are in compliance with all covenants. EBITDA is defined in the loan agreement as (i) the sum of net income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense, other non-cash items reducing consolidated net income and non-cash equity-based compensation expenses minus (ii) other non-cash items increasing consolidated net income.
We are generally not required to obtain the consent of lenders of the U.S. revolving credit facility before raising significant additional debt financing; however, certain limitations and conditions may apply that would require consent to be obtained. In recent years, we have demonstrated our ability to secure consents to access debt markets. We have also been successful in accessing equity markets from time to time. We believe that we will be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing as needed.
The SECT has a revolving credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $35 million, maturing on July 26, 2024. Interest was 2.21% as of July 3, 2021 and is based on LIBOR plus a margin of 2.13%. As of July 3, 2021, there was $7 million of outstanding borrowings.
On December 13, 2019, we completed the sale of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% senior notes due December 15, 2027 with interest paid semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, which commenced on June 15, 2020. The senior notes are unsecured obligations, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries and contain normal incurrence-based covenants and limitations such as the ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, make other restricted payments and investments, create liens and certain corporate acts such as mergers and consolidations. The aggregate net proceeds were used to repay indebtedness under our U.S. bank facility, thereby increasing the unused portion of our U.S. revolving credit facility.
On December 13, 2019, we issued a notice of redemption to the holders of our 5.25% senior notes due on December 1, 2022, to redeem and retire all of the outstanding notes. The notes were redeemed on January 13, 2020 at 101.313%, pursuant to an early redemption right. We redeemed the aggregate principal amount of $300 million using proceeds drawn from our U.S. revolving credit facility. The associated loss on the redemption includes $4 million of call premium paid to external bondholders.
We have a trade receivables securitization facility (the "Securitization Program") that matures on October 29, 2021. The Securitization Program provides up to $80 million of borrowing capacity and lowers our cost to borrow funds as compared to the U.S. revolving credit facility. Under the S ecuritization Program, we sell certain trade receivables and related rights to an affiliate, which in turn sells an undivided variable percentage ownership interest in the trade receivables to a financial institution, while maintaining a subordinated interest in a portion of the pool of trade receivables. We had an outstanding balan ce of $56 million at July 3, 2021. The Securitization Program has a minimum borrowing requirement, which was $56 million a t July 3, 2021. Interest on the secured borrowings under the Securitization Program was 1.03% at July 3, 2021 and is based on 30-day LIBOR plus an applicable margin.
At July 3, 2021, we had $745 million of unused capacity, including $705 million from the U.S. revolving credit facility after considering standby letters of credit. Our leverage ratio covenant limits our ability to increase net debt by $541 million as of July 3, 2021.
Net debt to capitalization was 38% at July 3, 2021 and 40% at October 3, 2020, respectively. The decrease in net debt to capitalization is primarily due to our net earnings.
We declared and paid cash dividends of $0.25 per share on our Class A and Class B common stock in each quarter of 2021.

Table of Contents
On November 20, 2020, the Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program to replace the previously existing share repurchase program. This program authorizes repurchases that includes both Class A and Class B common stock, and allows us to buy up to an ag gregate 3 million common shares. Under this program, we purchased approximately 181,000 shares for $15 million.
Previously, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program that was amended from time to time to authorize additional repurchases that includes both Class A and Class B common stock, and allowed us to buy up to an aggregate 13 million common shares. Under this program, we purchased approximately 13 million shares for $899 million.
As we adapt to the changing COVID-19 environment, we believe we are well positioned to invest in our business and have returned to a balanced capital deployment strategy. We will organically invest in our operations and explore opportunities to make strategic acquisitions and return capital to shareholders.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND MARKET TRENDS
We operate within the aerospace and defense and industrial markets. Our businesses continue to face varying levels of pressure from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Within our aerospace and defense markets, our defense and space businesses represented approximately half of our 2020 sales. We expect these businesses may face modest supply chain and production level risks, as they are more directly affected by program funding levels which, have remained stable. However, our commercial aircraft market, which represented less than 20% of our 2020 sales, faced the greatest pressure due to the dramatic reductions in air travel throughout 2020. While domestic travel has started to recently show signs of recovery, international travel remains muted.
Within our industrial markets,which represented less than 25% of our 2020 sales, we have seen a recent recovery within industrial automation; however our simulation and test and energy niche markets continue facing demand challenges from the macroeconomic slowdown and reduced capital investments. Our medical business, which represented approximately 10% of our 2020 sales, experienced a surge in demand for our medical applications essential in the fight against the pandemic. As this surge in demand wanes, we expect to return to normal growth rates in the future.
A common factor throughout our markets is the continuing demand for technologically advanced products.
Aerospace and Defense
Within aerospace and defense, we serve three end markets: defense, commercial aircraft and space.
The defense market is dependent on military spending for development and production programs, which to-date, have not been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We have a growing development program order book for future generation aircraft and hypersonic missiles, and we strive to embed our technologies within these high-performance military programs of the future. Aircraft production programs are typically long-term in nature, offering predictability as to capacity needs and future revenues. We maintain positions on numerous high priority programs, including the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II, FA-18E/F Super Hornet and V-22 Osprey. The large installed base of our products leads to attractive aftermarket sales and service opportunities. The tactical and strategic missile, missile defense and defense controls markets are dependent on many of the same market conditions as military aircraft, including overall military spending and program funding levels. At times when there are perceived threats to national security, U.S. Defense spending can increase; at other times, defense spending can decrease. Future levels of defense spending are uncertain, subject to presidential and congressional debate and could be reduced to offset the various COVID-19 pandemic relief payments.
The commercial OEM aircraft market has depended on a number of factors, including both the last decade's increasing global demand for air travel and increasing fuel prices. Both factors contributed to the demand for new, more fuel-efficient aircraft with lower operating costs that lead to large production backlogs for Boeing and Airbus. However, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has drastically reduced air traffic as travel restrictions and social distancing measures were implemented to help control the spread of the virus. The reduced air traffic has applied financial pressures on airlines, and in order to preserve cash and liquidity, have dramatically reduced flight hours and delayed the purchases of new aircraft. Although U.S. domestic air travel has recently increased during our third quarter of 2021, international travel has not yet begun to recover. Given the uncertain length of this pandemic and associated restrictions to travel long distances, the commercial market may shift away from wide-body aircraft. Furthermore, as companies and employees become accustomed to working remotely, business travel and the associated flight hours may not reach the pre-crisis levels. As such, we believe Boeing and Airbus will continue to directionally match their wide-body aircraft production rates with the reduced air traffic volume, which has lowered their demand for our flight control systems. We believe the commercial OEM market's recovery will be heavily dependent on the return to pre-COVID-19 air traffic activity levels and therefore will face pressures for a prolonged period of time.

The commercial aftermarket is driven by usage and age of the existing aircraft fleet for passenger and cargo aircraft, which drives the need for maintenance and repairs. Given the dramatic reductions in flight hours and the airlines' cash preservation measures due to the impacts of COVID-19, we believe the demand volume for our maintenance services and spare parts will remain at depressed levels over the short-term. Also, with fewer expected new aircraft deliveries, we would see lower future initial provisioning and spares sales. However, when domestic and international travel begin to recover, we expect a faster recovery in this market as compared to the commercial OEM market.
The space market is comprised of four customer markets: the civil market, the department of defense market, the commercial space market and the new space market. The civil market, namely NASA, is driven by investment for commercial and exploration activities, including NASA's return to the moon. The department of defense market is driven by governmental-authorized levels of funding for satellite communications, as well as funding for hypersonic defense technologies. The commercial space market is comprised of large satellite customers, which traditionally sell to communications companies. Trends for this market, as well as for commercial launch vehicles, follow demand for increased capacity. This, in turn tends to track with underlying demand for increased consumption of telecommunication services, satellite replacements and global navigation needs. The new space market is driven by investments to increase the speed and access to space through smaller satellites at reduced cost. Similar to the defense market, funding for these four markets have not been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic to-date.
Industrial
Within industrial, we serve two end markets: industrial, consisting of industrial automation products, simulation and test products and energy generation and exploration products; and medical.
The industrial market we serve with our industrial automation products is influenced by several factors including capital investment levels, the pace of product innovation, economic conditions, cost-reduction efforts and technology upgrades. As governments around the world implemented measures to help control the spread of the COVID-19 virus, the subsequent economic downturn constrained capital investment and slowed investments in product innovation and upgrades. However, starting in our third quarter of 2021, we have seen a modest recovery in these markets.
Our simulation and test products operate in markets that are largely affected by these same factors and investment challenges stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. Reduced air travel and the subsequent reduction in new commercial aircraft have reduced the need for flight simulator training, for which we supply motion control products. Similarly, the recent lower capital spend has reduced the need for our automotive and material testing applications.
Our energy generation and exploration products operate in a market that is influenced by changing oil and natural gas prices, global urbanization and the resulting change in supply and demand for global energy. Historically, drivers for global growth include investments in power generation infrastructure and exploration of new oil and gas resources. However, the COVID-19 pandemic led to reduced oil prices, reducing the economic feasibility for these investments and explorations, which to-date, have not returned to the pre-pandemic levels.
The medical market we serve, in general, is influenced by economic conditions, regulatory environments, hospital and outpatient clinic spending on equipment, population demographics, medical advances, patient demands and the need for precision control components and systems. The outbreak of the COVID-19 virus created unprecedented demand for medical equipment and has shifted the way hospitals optimize their capacity. Our medical components products are critical motion control components for life saving medical equipment, including ventilators, oxygen concentrators and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines, among others. The COVID-19 pandemic increased the demand for ventilators, of which our products are a key component of that industry's supply chain. Additionally, our medical devices products including infusion and enteral feeding pumps, and their corresponding disposable sets, are used primarily in the home healthcare environment. Since the COVID-19 pandemic has altered the way hospitals provide care by asking non-critical patients to recuperate at home, our medical devices products saw an increase in orders. However, we have already moved beyond the initial surge in demand as our customers resize their inventory levels.

Foreign Currencies
We are affected by the movement of foreign currencies compared to the U.S. dollar, particularly in Aircraft Controls and Industrial Systems. About one-fifth of our 2020 sales were denominated in foreign currencies. During the first nine months of 2021, average foreign currency rates generally strengthened against the U.S. dollar compared to 2020. The translation of the results of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars increased sales by $29 million compared to the same period one year ago.
