SUBSEQUENT EVENT
 
On
April 22, 2020,
the Company was notified of the need to significantly reduce its operations in Reynosa, Mexico in response to government mandates related to COVID-
19.
  As of
April 29, 2020,
the facility, which largely supports the Company's Cinch Connectivity Solutions business, was running at
20%
of its normal production rate and had increased to a
60%
production rate by
May 5, 2020. 
The production lines still in operation primarily support defense and medical applications.  The Company estimates that approximately
$4
-
$4.5
million of revenue each month are generated from this facility at normal production rates.  As COVID-
19
continues to impact North America and Europe, additional Bel facilities
may
become negatively impacted.  In addition, the coronavirus has adversely affected the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn, which has in turn had some effect on demand for our end customers’ products. The extent to which COVID-
19
 will impact our business and our consolidated financial results will depend on future developments which are highly uncertain and cannot presently be predicted or estimated.
