CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

The terms the “Company,” “Bel,” “we,” “us,” and “our” as used in this report refer to Bel Fuse Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries unless otherwise specified.

The Company’s consolidated operating results are affected by a wide variety of factors that could materially and adversely affect revenues and profitability, including the risk factors described in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (our “2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K”), and the risks and other factors described in this and our other Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and in our other reports and documents that we have filed or may file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). As a result of these and other factors, the Company may experience material fluctuations in future operating results on a quarterly or annual basis, which could materially and adversely affect its business, consolidated financial condition, operating results, and common stock prices. Furthermore, this document and other reports and documents filed by the Company with the SEC contain certain forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 ("Forward-Looking Statements") with respect to the business of the Company. Forward-Looking Statements are necessarily subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from these statements. Forward-Looking Statements can be identified by such words as "anticipates," "believes," "plan," "assumes," "could," "should," "estimates," "forecasts," "projects," "expects," "intends," "potential," "seek," "predict," "may," "will" and similar references to future periods. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this report regarding our strategies, prospects, financial condition, operations, costs, plans and objectives and regarding the anticipated impact of COVID-19 are Forward-Looking Statements.

These Forward-Looking Statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including those detailed in Item 1A of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and the risks and other factors described in this and our other Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and in our other reports and documents that we have filed or may file from time to time with the SEC, which could cause actual results to differ materially from these Forward-Looking Statements. Any Forward-Looking Statements are qualified in the entirety by reference to such risk factors discussed throughout our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, in this and our other Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and as described in our other reports and documents filed from time to time with the SEC. Some of the risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates or projections contained in the Forward-Looking Statements include but are not limited to:

| ● | the market concerns facing our customers, and risks for the Company’s business in the event of the loss of certain substantial customers;

| ● | the continuing viability of sectors that rely on our products;

| ● | the effects of business and economic conditions;

| ● | the impact of public health crises (such as the governmental, social and economic effects of COVID-19);

| ● | the effects of rising input costs, and cost changes generally, including the potential impact and effects of inflationary pressures;

| ● | difficulties associated with integrating previously acquired companies;

| ● | capacity and supply constraints or difficulties, including supply chain constraints or other challenges;

| ● | difficulties associated with the availability of labor, and the risks of any labor unrest or labor shortages;

| ● | risks associated with our international operations, including our substantial manufacturing operations in China;

| ● | risks associated with restructuring programs or other strategic initiatives, including any difficulties in implementation or realization of the expected benefits or cost savings;

| ● | product development, commercialization or technological difficulties;

| ● | the regulatory and trade environment;

| ● | risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates;

| ● | uncertainties associated with legal proceedings;

| ● | the market's acceptance of the Company's new products and competitive responses to those new products; and

| ● | the impact of changes to U.S. and applicable foreign legal and regulatory requirements, including tax laws, trade and tariff policies.

The foregoing list sets forth some, but not all, of the factors that could affect our ability to achieve results described in any Forward-Looking Statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or the date of the document incorporated by reference into this report. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation and expressly disclaim any duty to publicly release the results of any revisions to these Forward-Looking Statements or otherwise update any Forward-Looking Statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any Forward-Looking Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Any Forward-Looking Statement made by the Company is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. All Forward-Looking Statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained in this section.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the periods presented herein have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Bel Fuse Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Certain information and footnote disclosures required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted from these condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations, including the interim reporting requirements, of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. There were no significant changes to these accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2023, except as discussed in “Recently Adopted Accounting Standards” below and as follows:

Investments

We account for non-marketable investments using the equity method of accounting if the investment gives us the ability to exercise significant influence over, but not control, of an investee. Significant influence generally exists if we have an ownership interest representing between 20% and 50% of the voting stock of the investee. Under the equity method of accounting, investments are stated at initial cost and are adjusted for subsequent additional investments and our proportionate share of earnings or losses and distributions.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, in the consolidated statements of operations, reflects our proportionate share of the investee's net income, including any associated affiliate taxes. Our proportionate share of the investee’s other comprehensive income (loss), net of income taxes, is recorded in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and consolidated statements of comprehensive income. In general, the equity investment in our unconsolidated affiliates is equal to our current equity investment plus those entities' undistributed earnings.

We evaluate our equity method investments for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate, in management’s judgment, that the carrying value of an investment may have experienced an other-than-temporary decline in value. When evidence of loss in value has occurred, management compares the estimated fair value of the investment to the carrying value of the investment to determine whether an impairment has occurred. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value and management considers the decline in value to be other than temporary, the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value is recognized in the financial statements as an impairment. See Note 2, "Investment in Innolectric", below, for our discussion on equity method investments.

Where we are unable to exercise significant influence over the investee, or when our investment balance is reduced to zero from our proportionate share of losses, the investments are accounted for under the cost method. Under the cost method, investments are carried at cost and adjusted only for other-than-temporary declines in fair value, distributions of earnings, additional investments, or in the case of an observable price change in an orderly transaction for an identical security.

All amounts included in the tables to these notes to condensed consolidated financial statements, except per share amounts, are in thousands.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"). ASU 2020-04 provides temporary optional guidance on contract modifications and hedging accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to alternative reference rates. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, which refined the scope of Topic 848 and clarified some of its guidance as part of the FASB’s monitoring of global reference rate activities. This updated guidance was effective upon issuance, and the Company was initially allowed to elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, which extended the date by which companies could elect to apply the amendments to December 31, 2024. During January 2023, the Company amended its credit agreement and related interest rate swap agreements to transition the reference rate from LIBOR to a Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") effective January 31, 2023. In connection with these amendments, the Company adopted ASU 2020-04 in the first quarter of 2023 and elected to apply the relevant practical expedients within the guidance. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), as amended. The new guidance will broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimates related to its financial instruments and adds to U.S. GAAP an impairment model that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

2. | INVESTMENT IN INNOLECTRIC

On February 1, 2023, the Company closed on a noncontrolling (one-third) investment in Germany-based innolectric AG (“innolectric”) for consideration of €8.0 million (approximately $8.8 million as of the February 2023 closing). Transaction costs associated with the Company's investment in innolectric amounted to $1.3 million and these costs have been recorded as part of the carrying value of the investment. Under the terms of the investment agreement, if innolectric achieves certain profitability thresholds within a specified timeframe, the Company would be committed to acquiring the remaining shares of innolectric at that time. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects the fair value as of the February 2023 closing of the initial one-third equity method investment, inclusive of transaction costs, of $11.0 million, and an other liability of $1.0 million associated with the net fair value of the put and call options related to the remaining shares pursuant to the agreement in the event certain profitability thresholds are met.

This passive investment will create a strategic alliance that is focused on Electric Vehicles (“EV”) on-board power electronics, and in particular next generation fast-charging technology. With no product overlap, this relationship expands the Bel eMobility Power portfolio, further enhancing Bel's competitive position in this emerging field. Our investment in innolectric is accounted for using the equity method and we have determined that the innolectric investment is not a variable interest entity (VIE). Results from this investment have been included in Bel's Power Solution and Protection segment and amounted to a loss of $0.4 million during each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023.

Related Party Transactions

From time to time, the Company provides cash loans to innolectric to fund working capital needs and further business development. During the first half of 2023, the Company provided loans to innolectric in the aggregate amount of €1.8 million (approximately $2.0 million). These loans bear interest at a rate of5% per annum. This balance is shown as a related-party note receivable on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2023.

3. | DIVESTITURE OF SUBSIDIARY

On June 1, 2023, the Company completed its divestment of Bel Stewart s.r.o., a former subsidiary in the Czech Republic which has historically been reported within Bel’s Connectivity Solutions segment. The business was sold to PEI Genesis (“PEI”) for total consideration of $5.2 million, subject to working capital adjustments. The divestment of this non-core business was a strategic decision which allows the Connectivity Solutions segment to focus on its main product categories serving customer end markets such as commercial air, defense, industrial and networking which better align with its long-term growth objectives.

The carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities included as part of the sale were as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 2,072 |
Accounts receivable |  |  | 1,030 |
Inventories |  |  | 1,310 |
Property, plant and equipment |  |  | 326 |

The change in balance of our unbilled receivables from December 31, 2022 to June 30, 2023 primarily relates to a timing difference between the Company’s performance (i.e. when our product is shipped to a customer-controlled hub) and the point at which the Company can invoice the customer per the terms of the customer contract (i.e. when the customer pulls our product from the customer-controlled hub). Our deferred revenue balance at December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2023 primarily relates to customer prepayments on invoices related to surcharges and expedite fees, which will be recorded as revenue in the period in which the related finished goods are shipped to the customer.

6. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based upon the best use of the asset or liability at the measurement date. Entities are required to use a fair value hierarchy which maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets;

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our equity securities primarily consisted of investments held in a rabbi trust which are intended to fund the Company’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) obligations. These securities are measured at fair value using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) inputs and amounted to $0.1 million at each of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Throughout 2023 and 2022, the Company entered into a series of foreign currency forward contracts, the fair value of which was ($0.7) million at June 30, 2023 and $0.4 million at December 31, 2022. The estimated fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is based on quotes received from the applicable counterparty, and represents the estimated amount we would receive or pay to settle the contracts, taking into consideration current exchange rates which can be validated through readily observable data from external sources (Level 2).

The Company is a party to two interest rate swap agreements as further described in Note 10, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements was $5.4 million at June 30, 2023 and $5.5 million at December 31, 2022, which was based on market data, and represents the estimated amount we would receive or pay to settle the agreements, taking into consideration current and projected future interest rates as well as the creditworthiness of the parties, all of which can be validated through readily observable data from external sources.

The Company does not have any financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis categorized as Level 3, and there were no transfers in or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or June 30, 2022. There were no changes to the Company’s valuation techniques used to measure asset fair values on a recurring or nonrecurring basis during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or June 30, 2022.

There were no financial assets accounted for at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

The Company has other financial instruments, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, which are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis but are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value due to their liquid or short-term nature. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is estimated using a discounted cash flow method based on interest rates that are currently available for debt issuances with similar terms and maturities. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the estimated fair value of total debt was $59.9 million and $95.0 million, respectively, compared to a carrying amount of $60.0 million and $95.0 million, respectively. The Company did not have any other financial liabilities within the scope of the fair value disclosure requirements as of June 30, 2023.

Nonfinancial assets and liabilities, such as goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, long-lived assets and the net liability related to the put/call options pursuant to the innolectric investment agreement, are accounted for at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These items are tested for impairment upon the occurrence of a triggering event or in the case of goodwill, on at least an annual basis. Based on the Company's assessment, it was concluded that no triggering events occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or June 30, 2022.

During the second quarter of 2023, the Company completed its preliminary valuation of the innolectric equity method investment including the valuations of the put and call options noted in the related investment agreement. To estimate the fair value of the put and call options conditional on certain thresholds related to EBITDA, a variation of the income approach, known as the real options method was used, where innolectric’s EBITDA and equity were simulated in a risk-neutral framework using Geometric Brownian Motion.

During the third quarter of 2022, a series of initiatives were launched to streamline our operational footprint. In a project expected to be completed by late-2023, two of our Magnetics sites in Zhongshan and Pingguo, China, are being consolidated into a single centralized site in the Binyang county of Southwestern China (the new Bel Guangxi facility). Further, facility consolidation actions within our Connectivity Solutions group have been underway in both the U.S. and Europe. During the first half of 2023, we completed the transition out of our Tempe, Arizona and Sudbury, UK facilities into other existing Bel sites. Our Melbourne, Florida site is in the process of transitioning its manufacturing operations into our existing site in Waseca, Minnesota, scheduled for completion by the end of 2023. The $4.2 million of restructuring charges incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2023, and the accrued restructuring costs of $9.1 million at June 30, 2023, are associated with these collective initiatives.

10. | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Our primary objective for holding derivative financial instruments is to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk, when deemed appropriate. We enter into these contracts in the normal course of business to mitigate risks and not for speculative purposes.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

Under our risk management strategy, we periodically use foreign currency forward contracts to manage our short-term exposures to fluctuations in operational cash flows resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These cash flow exposures result from portions of our forecasted operating expenses, primarily compensation and related expenses, which are transacted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, most notably the Chinese renminbi and the Mexican peso. These foreign currency forward contracts generally have maturities of no longer than twelve months, although occasionally we will execute a contract that extends beyond twelve months, depending upon the nature of the underlying risk.

We held outstanding foreign currency forward contracts with notional amounts of $23.5 million and $25.7 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company's foreign currency forward contracts related to the Chinese renminbi are designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes and as such, changes in their fair value are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheet and are reclassified into the statement of operations within cost of goods sold in the period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

To partially mitigate risks associated with the variable interest rates on the revolver borrowings under the Company's credit agreement (as defined and described in Note 11, "Debt", below), in November 2021, we executed a pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap agreement with each of two multinational financial institutions under which we, prior to the January 2023 amendment described below which transitioned the reference rate from LIBOR to SOFR, (i) paid interest at a fixed rate of 1.3055% and received variable interest of one-month LIBOR on a notional amount of $30.0 million and (ii) paid interest at a fixed rate of 1.3180% and received variable interest of one-month LIBOR on a notional amount of $30.0 million (as amended to date, the “2021 Swaps”). The effective date of the 2021 Swaps was December 31, 2021, and settlements with the counterparties began on January 31, 2022 and occur on a monthly basis. The 2021 Swaps will terminate on August 31, 2026. In January 2023, and in connection with related changes to its credit agreement, the Company amended the 2021 Swaps to transition the related reference rates in these agreements from LIBOR to SOFR, effective January 31, 2023. Under the amended 2021 Swaps, the Company is required to pay interest on the notional amount at the rate of 1.334% and 1.348%, respectively, in exchange for the daily SOFR rate plus 10 basis points.

The 2021 Swaps are designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes and as such, changes in their fair value are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheet and are reclassified into the statement of operations within interest expense in the period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

11. | DEBT

The Company has a Credit and Security Agreement with KeyBank National Association (as amended, the "credit agreement" or the "CSA"). The CSA provides a $175 million 5-year senior secured revolving credit facility ("Revolver"), with a sublimit of up to $10 million available for letters of credit and a sublimit of up to $5 million available for swing line loans. The Company had $60.0 million and $95.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the Revolver at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Revolving loans borrowed under the CSA mature on September 1, 2026. During January 2023, the Company amended its CSA and related interest rate swap agreements to transition the reference rate from LIBOR to SOFR effective January 31, 2023.

The weighted-average interest rate in effect for the variable-rate portion of our outstanding borrowings ($35.0 million at December 31, 2022) was 5.51% at December 31, 2022 and consisted of SOFR plus the Company's credit spread at June 30, 2023 and LIBOR plus the Company’s credit spread at December 31, 2022, as determined per the terms of the CSA. No outstanding borrowings were subject to a variable interest rate at June 30, 2023. In order to manage our interest rate exposure on the remaining borrowings, and as further described in Note 10, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", the Company is party to the 2021 Swaps, each with an aggregate notional amount of $30 million, or $60 million in the aggregate, the effect of which is to fix the SOFR portion (or, for periods prior to January 31, 2023, the LIBOR portion) of the interest rate on our outstanding debt on our Revolver (or such portion thereof up to the aggregate $60 million notional amount of the 2021 Swaps). In periods prior to January 31, 2023, the 2021 Swaps required the Company to pay interest on the notional amount at the rate of 1.3055% and 1.3180%, respectively, in exchange for the one-month LIBOR rate. Effective January 31, 2023, in connection with the Company's transition of its reference rate from LIBOR to SOFR as further described in Recently Adopted Accounting Standards in Note 1, "Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies", the 2021 Swaps require the Company to pay interest on the notional amount at the rate of 1.334% and 1.348%, respectively, in exchange for the daily SOFR rate plus 10 basis points. The effective rate of interest for our outstanding borrowings, including the impact of the 2021 Swaps, was 2.47% and 3.57%, respectively, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company incurred $0.9 million and $0.8 million of interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $1.9 million and $1.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, in connection with interest due on its outstanding borrowings under the CSA during each period, the effects of the 2021 Swaps and amortization of deferred financing costs.

The CSA contains customary representations and warranties, covenants and events of default. In addition, the CSA contains financial covenants that measure (i) the ratio of the Company’s total funded indebtedness, on a consolidated basis, less the aggregate amount of all unencumbered cash and cash equivalents, to the amount of the Company’s consolidated EBITDA (“Leverage Ratio”) and (ii) the ratio of the amount of the Company’s consolidated EBITDA to the Company’s consolidated fixed charges (“Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio”). If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the CSA would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due thereunder and all actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor. At June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants, including its most restrictive covenant, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.

12. | INCOME TAXES

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal examinations by tax authorities for years before 2019 and for state examinations before 2016. Regarding foreign subsidiaries, the Company is no longer subject to examination by tax authorities for years before 2012 in Asia and generally 2014 in Europe.

As a result of the expiration of the statutes of limitations for specific jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that the related unrecognized benefits for tax positions taken regarding previously filed tax returns may change materially from those recorded as liabilities for uncertain tax positions in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2023. The Company’s liabilities for uncertain tax positions totaled $19.5 million and $24.8 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, of which $5.6 million that was included in other current liabilities at December 31, 2022 was resolved during 2023 by way of expiration of the related statute of limitations. These amounts, if recognized, would reduce the Company’s effective tax rate.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of the current provision for income taxes. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $0.3 million in interest and penalties in the condensed consolidated statements of operations during each period. The Company has approximately $1.9 million and $4.0 million accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which is included in liability for uncertain tax positions in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

13. | RETIREMENT, SAVINGS AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS

The Company maintains the Bel Fuse Inc. Employees’ Savings Plan, a defined contribution plan that is intended to meet the applicable requirements for tax-qualification under sections 401(a) and (k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 amounted to $0.3 million for each period. The expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 amounted to $0.7 million during each period. The Company’s matching contribution is made in the form of Bel Fuse Inc. Class A common stock. As of June 30, 2023, the plan owned 303,429 and 80,737 shares of Bel Fuse Inc. Class A and Class B common stock, respectively.

The Company also maintains a Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the "DCP"). With certain exceptions, the Company's contributions to the DCP are discretionary and become fully vested by the participants upon reaching age 65. The expense amounted to less than $0.1 million during each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and amounted to $0.1 million during each of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. As the plan is fully funded, the assets and liabilities related to the DCP were in equal amounts of $0.8 million at June 30, 2023 and $0.7 million at December 31, 2022. These amounts are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of each date.

The Company's subsidiaries in Asia have a retirement fund covering substantially all of their Hong Kong based full-time employees. The expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 amounted to $0.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively. The expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 amounted to $0.9 million and $1.6 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, the plan owned 3,323 and 17,342 shares of Bel Fuse Inc. Class A and Class B common stock, respectively. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased all shares back from the Asia retirement plan and no shares were owned by the plan as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

The Company maintains a SERP, which is designed to provide a limited group of key management and other key employees of the Company with supplemental retirement and death benefits.

15. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

The Company is party to a number of legal actions and claims, none of which individually or in the aggregate, in the opinion of management, are expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

On June 23, 2021, a patent infringement lawsuit styled Bel Power Solutions, Inc. v. Monolithic Power Systems, Inc., Case Number 6:21cv00655, was filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas (Waco Division) by Bel Power Solutions, Inc. against Monolithic Power Systems, Inc. ("MPS") for infringement of various patents directed towards systems, methods and articles of manufacture that provide a substantial improvement in power control for circuits, including novel and unique point-of-load regulators. On July 27, 2023, the Western District of Texas court filed an Order granting MPS’s motion for summary judgment of non-infringement. The Court’s memorandum and opinion is forthcoming. The Company is evaluating its options for appeal.

In connection with the Company's 2014 acquisition of the Power-One Power Solutions business ("Power Solutions") of ABB Ltd., there is an ongoing claim by the Arezzo Revenue Agency in Italy concerning certain tax matters related to what was then Power-One Asia Pacific Electronics Shenzhen Co. Ltd. (now Bel Power Solutions Asia Pacific Electronics Shenzhen Co. Ltd, or “BPS China”) for the years 2004 to 2006. In September 2012, the Tax Court of Arezzo ruled in favor of BPS China and cancelled the claim. In February 2013, the Arezzo Revenue Agency filed an appeal of the Tax Court’s ruling. The hearing of the appeal was held on October 2, 2014. On October 13, 2014, BPS China was informed of the Regional Tax Commission of Florence ruling which was in favor of the Arezzo Revenue Agency and against BPS China. An appeal was filed on July 18, 2015 before the Regional Tax Commission of Florence and rejected. On December 5, 2016, the Arezzo Revenue Agency filed an appeal with the Supreme Court and BPS China filed a counter-appeal on January 4, 2017. The Supreme Court has yet to render its judgment. The estimated liability related to this matter is approximately $12.0 million and has been included as a liability for uncertain tax positions on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. As Bel is fully indemnified in this matter per the terms of the stock purchase agreement with ABB, a corresponding other asset for indemnification is also included in other assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

In connection with the Company's 2021 acquisition of EOS Power ("EOS"), there is an ongoing claim asserted with respect to EOS by the Principal Commissioner of Customs (Preventive), Mumbai related to customs duties and imposed fines and penalties dating back to 1994. The original demand was in the amount of approximately $1.4 million, of which EOS has paid $0.5 million. EOS filed an Appeal in 2016 which is pending with the Customs, Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal in Mumbai related to the $0.9 million balance of the original demand net of EOS' payment. As part of the EOS acquisition agreement entered into in March 2021, the Company is indemnified for this matter for a period of 7 years from the acquisition date. The Company is unable to determine at this time what amount, if any, may ultimately be due in connection with this claim. As such, no estimate was accrued as of June 30, 2023.

The Company is not a party to any other legal proceeding, the adverse outcome of which is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or consolidated results of operations.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The information in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes set forth in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our MD&A set forth in Item 7 of Part II of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our consolidated financial statements and related notes set forth in Item 8 of Part II of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” below and “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Information,” above, and the information referenced therein, for a description of risks that we face and important factors that we believe could cause actual results to differ materially from those in our Forward-Looking Statements. All statements herein regarding the anticipated or likely impact of COVID-19 constitute Forward-Looking Statements. All amounts and percentages are approximate due to rounding and all dollars in the text are in millions, except per share amounts or where otherwise noted. When we cross-reference to a “Note,” we are referring to our “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” unless the context indicates otherwise. All amounts noted within the tables are in thousands and amounts and percentages are approximate due to rounding.

Overview

Our Company

We design, manufacture and market a broad array of products that power, protect and connect electronic circuits. These products are primarily used in the networking, telecommunications, computing, general industrial, high-speed data transmission, military, commercial aerospace, transportation and eMobility industries. Our portfolio of products also finds application in the automotive, medical, broadcasting and consumer electronics markets.

We operate through three product group segments, in addition to a Corporate segment. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, 50% of our revenues were derived from Power Solutions and Protection, 32% from Connectivity Solutions and 18% from our Magnetic Solutions operating segment.

Our operating expenses are driven principally by the cost of labor where the factories that we use are located, the cost of the materials that we use and our ability to effectively and efficiently manage overhead costs. As labor and material costs vary by product line and region, any significant shift in product mix can have an associated impact on our costs of sales. Costs are recorded as incurred for all products manufactured. Such amounts are determined based upon the estimated stage of production and include materials, labor cost and fringes and related allocations of factory overhead. Our products are manufactured at various facilities in the U.S., Mexico, Dominican Republic, England, Slovakia, India and the People’s Republic of China (PRC).

We have little visibility into the ordering habits of our customers and we can be subjected to large and unpredictable variations in demand for our products. Accordingly, we must continually recruit and train new workers to replace those lost to attrition and be able to address peaks in demand that may occur from time to time. These recruiting and training efforts and related inefficiencies, and overtime required in order to meet any increase in demand, can add volatility to the labor costs incurred by us.

The Effects of COVID-19 on Bel’s Business

We continue to be focused on the safety and well-being of our associates around the world in light of COVID-19 and the variants of COVID that have followed. Our management team closely monitors the situation at each of our facilities and protective measures, where possible and as applicable under governing regulations, remain in place throughout our facilities. The majority of our office staff continues to follow a hybrid work schedule. The combination of protective measures at our factories coupled with remote work arrangements have enabled us to maintain operations, including financial reporting systems, internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures.

Throughout 2022, pandemic-related issues created additional port congestion and intermittent supplier shutdowns and delays, resulting in additional expenses to expedite delivery of critical parts. In order to better control our costs, the expediting of raw material deliveries has been generally reserved for customer-specific requests for expedited timing whereby our end customer has agreed to pay the incremental fee. The requests to expedite shipments has continued into the first half of 2023 but to a lesser extent. Upon the discontinuation of COVID protocols in the PRC in late 2022, we experienced approximately 3-4 weeks between December 2022 and January 2023 where the attendance rate of workers at our factories in the PRC were very low due to COVID outbreaks in the regions in which we operate. As of June 30, 2023, attendance rates at all of our factories in the PRC were at normal levels. We do not believe the aforementioned low attendance rates had a material impact on Bel's financial results in the first half of 2023. To date, the COVID-related transportation delays and local outbreaks have not materially impacted our ability to operate our business or achieve our business goals.

Based on our analysis of ASC 350 and ASC 360 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, we are not aware of any potential triggering events for impairment of our goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets or finite-lived assets. We will continue to assess the relevant criteria on a quarterly basis based on updated cash flow and market assumptions. Unfavorable changes in cash flow or market assumptions could result in impairment of these assets in future periods.

As our operations have continued we have not experienced a negative impact on our liquidity to date. Our balance of cash on hand continues to be strong at $65.1 million at June 30, 2023 as compared to $70.3 million at December 31, 2022. We also have availability under our current revolving credit facility; as of June 30, 2023, we could borrow an additional $115.0 million while still being in compliance with our debt covenants. However, any significant negative impact to our financial results related to COVID or otherwise would have a related negative impact on our financial covenants outlined in our credit agreement, which would impact the amount available to borrow under our revolving credit facility. Our management team closely monitors the evolving COVID situation and its ongoing and lasting effects and impacts including upon our industry, suppliers and customers, and has developed plans which could be implemented to minimize the impact to our Company in the event the situation deteriorates.

Our statements regarding the future impact of COVID-19 and its ongoing and lasting effects and impacts represent Forward-Looking Statements. See “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Information.”

Other Key Factors Affecting our Business

We believe that, in addition to uncertainties around COVID-19 and continuing impacts of the pandemic upon the economy and our industry (including on suppliers and customers), recent global inflationary pressures on the costs of goods and services in general, and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the key factors affecting and/or potentially affecting our results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and/or future results include the following:

| • | Revenues – Our revenues in the first six months of 2023 were up $33.8 million, or 11.0% as compared to the same period of 2022. The increase was primarily seen within our Power Solutions and Protection group from higher sales of our power products utilized in networking and eMobility end applications. Our Connectivity Solutions group was also a significant contributor to our sales growth in the first half of 2023, driven by increased sales to customers in the commercial aerospace and military end markets. These increases were offset in part by a decline in sales of our Magnetic Solutions products during the first half of 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022, as our Magnetics networking customers continue to work through inventory on hand.

| • | Backlog – Our backlog of orders amounted to $449.9 million at June 30, 2023, a decrease of $115.4 million, or 20%, from December 31, 2022. From year-end 2022 to June 30, 2023, we saw a 20% decrease in the backlog for our Power Solutions and Protection business, a decline in backlog of 41% in our Magnetics business and a 6% decrease in backlog level at our Connectivity Solutions business. Order volumes in general have been lower in recent quarters which we believe to be due in part to our customers' working through inventory on hand.

19

Table of Contents

| • | Product Mix – Material and labor costs vary by product line and any significant shift in product mix between higher- and lower-margin product lines will have a corresponding impact on our gross margin percentage. In general, our Connectivity products have historically had the highest-contribution margins of our three product groups given the harsh environment and high-reliability nature of these products and the end markets they serve. Our Power products have a higher-cost bill of materials and are impacted to a greater extent by changes in material costs. As our Magnetic Solutions products are more labor-intensive in nature, margins on these products are impacted to a greater extent by minimum and market-based wage increases in the PRC and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and the Chinese Renminbi. Fluctuations in revenue volume among our product groups will have a corresponding impact on our profit margins. See "Results of Operations - Summary by Operating Segment - Revenue and Gross Margin" below for further details.

| • | Pricing and Availability of Materials – There have been ongoing supply constraints related to components that constitute raw materials in our manufacturing processes, particularly with capacitors, discrete semiconductors and copper. Lead times have been extended and the reduction in supply also caused an increase in prices for certain of these components. Beginning in late-2022, there has been some stabilization of raw material pricing and availability for a portion of the components that we purchase, but in general supply constraints continue to be a challenge and we expect this environment to continue through the remainder of 2023. Our material costs as a percentage of revenue were 42.4% of sales during the first half of 2023, down from 45.7% during the first half of 2022 as a result of a favorable shift in product mix and the impact of our pricing actions over the past year, offset in part by higher material costs in 2023.

| • | Labor Costs – Labor costs represented 6.6% of revenue during the first six months of 2023 as compared to 8.7% of revenue during the same period of 2022. The reduction in labor costs as a percentage of sales for the first half of 2023 was largely impacted by pricing actions taken by our Company over the past year and favorable exchange rate fluctuations in 2023 leading to lower labor costs at our PRC factories.
| • | Inflationary Pressures - Inflationary pressures could continue to result in higher input costs, including those related to our raw materials, labor, freight, utilities, healthcare and other expenses. Our future operating results will depend, in part, on our continued ability to manage these fluctuations through pricing actions, cost savings initiatives and sourcing decisions.

| • | Restructuring – During the third quarter of 2022, we launched a series of initiatives to simplify our operational footprint. In a project expected to be largely complete by end of the third quarter of 2023 and fully executed by year end, we are in the process of consolidating two of our Magnetics sites in Zhongshan and Pingguo, China, spread across 9 manufacturing buildings in total, into a single centralized site in the Binyang county of southwestern China. Further, within our Connectivity Solutions group, facility consolidation actions have been underway in both the U.S. and Europe. During the first half of 2023, we completed the transitions our of our Tempe, Arizona and Sudbury, UK sites, moving those operations into other existing Bel facilities. Our Connectivity site in Melbourne, Florida is in the process of transitioning its manufacturing operations to our existing site in Waseca, Minnesota and this initiative is scheduled for completion by the end of 2023. Aggregate annual cost savings are estimated at approximately $5.0 million, which we anticipate to begin to realize in full by the first quarter of 2024. We will continue to review our operations to optimize our business, which may result in restructuring costs being recognized in future periods. The preceding sentences represent Forward-Looking Statements. See "Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Information."

| • | Impact of Foreign Currency – As further described below, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, labor and overhead costs were $0.6 million lower than the corresponding 2022 period primarily due to a favorable foreign exchange environment involving the Chinese Renminbi, partially offset by an unfavorable foreign exchange fluctuations in the Mexican Peso, as compared to the prior year period. We realized foreign exchange transactional losses of $0.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, due to the fluctuation of the spot rates of certain currencies in effect when translating our balance sheet accounts at June 30, 2023 versus those in effect at December 31, 2022. Since we are a U.S. domiciled company, we translate our foreign currency-denominated financial results into U.S. dollars. Due to the changes in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, translating our financial results and the revaluation of certain intercompany as well as third-party transactions to and from foreign currencies to U.S. dollars may result in a favorable or unfavorable impact to our consolidated statements of operations and cash flows. We were favorably impacted by transactional foreign exchange gains in the first six months of 2023 due to the depreciation of the Chinese Renminbi against the U.S. dollar, offset in part by an appreciation of the Mexican Peso against the U.S. dollar, as compared to exchange rates in effect during 2022. We have significant manufacturing operations located in in the PRC and Mexico where labor and overhead costs are paid in local currency. As a result, the U.S. Dollar equivalent costs of these operations were approximately $1.5 million lower in the PRC, partially offset by higher costs in Mexico of approximately $1.0 million, in the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the comparable period in 2022. We monitor changes in foreign currencies and have historically implemented foreign currency forward contracts, and may continue to implement pricing actions to help mitigate the impact that changes in foreign currencies may have on our consolidated operating results. The preceding sentence represents a Forward-Looking Statement. See "Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Information."

| • | Effective Tax Rate – Our effective tax rate will fluctuate based on the geographic regions in which our pretax profits are earned. Of the geographic regions in which we operate, the U.S. and Europe’s tax rates are generally equivalent; and Asia has the lowest tax rates of our three geographical regions. See Note 12, “Income Taxes”.

Connectivity Solutions:

Sales of our Connectivity Solutions products increased by $8.7 million (19%) and $18.4 million (21%) during three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods of 2022. These increases were primarily due to an increase in sales into the commercial aerospace end market of $8.0 million (102%) during the second quarter of 2023 and $16.4 million (117%) during the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods of 2022. Sales into our military end market also grew in the 2023 periods by $2.1 million (22%) during the second quarter and $3.4 million (18%) during the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods of 2022. We also experienced an increased volume of Connectivity Solutions products sold through our distribution channels in the 2023 periods compared to last year. These sales increases were offset in part by a decline in sales of passive connector and cabling products used in the industrial premise wiring and 5G/IOT markets of $2.8 million (30%) during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and a decline of $3.7 million (21%) during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the prior year periods. Gross margins for the 2023 periods presented above were favorably impacted by the higher overall sales volume, pricing actions and operational efficiencies implemented during the first half of 2023.

Sales of our Magnetic Solutions products declined by $26.6 million (50%) and $25.1 million (29%) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods of 2022. Demand for our Magnetic Solutions products from our networking customers and through our distribution channels has been the primary driver of the lower demand as they continue to work through inventory on hand. The lower sales volume, partially offset by pricing actions and favorable exchange rates with the Chinese Renminbi versus the U.S. dollar, were the primary drivers of gross margin reduction for this product group from last year's periods.

Power Solutions and Protection:

Sales of our Power Solutions and Protection products were higher by $16.1 million (23%) during the second quarter of 2023 and by $40.5 million (31%) during the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods of 2022. The sales increases for the 2023 periods presented were primarily driven by an increase in sales of our front-end power products used in networking and datacenter applications of $16.1 million during the second quarter of 2023 and a $35.2 million increase during the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods of 2022. Further, sales of product into the eMobility end market increased by $3.5 million (71%) in the second quarter and $6.0 million (65%) in the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods of 2022. These increases were offset by a reduction in sales of our circuit protection products of $2.0 million and $5.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods of 2022. Gross margin improved in the 2023 periods presented versus those from the same periods of 2022 as pricing actions, higher sales volume, favorable exchange rates with the Chinese Renminbi versus the U.S. dollar, and a favorable shift in product mix offset the impact of increased material costs.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 consisted of the following:

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Six Months Ended |
|  | June 30, |  |  | June 30, |
|  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Material costs |  |  | 41.3 | % |  |  | 46.6 | % |  |  | 42.4 | % |  |  | 45.7 | %
Labor costs |  |  | 6.4 | % |  |  | 8.0 | % |  |  | 6.6 | % |  |  | 8.7 | %
Other expenses |  |  | 19.4 | % |  |  | 18.8 | % |  |  | 19.0 | % |  |  | 19.8 | %
Total cost of sales |  |  | 67.1 | % |  |  | 73.4 | % |  |  | 68.0 | % |  |  | 74.2 | %

Material costs as a percentage of sales during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were down compared to the same periods of 2022, as pricing actions taken over the past year are helping to offset the continued heightened cost of certain raw materials. Labor costs in 2023 as a percentage of sales have decreased significantly from the 2022 periods presented due to a variety of factors, including the shift in product mix resulting in a lower consolidated percentage of sales from of our labor-intensive Magnetic products, lower labor costs in China due to the favorable fluctuation in the Chinese Renminbi exchange rate versus the U.S. Dollar, and contract renewals within the Connectivity segment which enabled us to align with current costs of material and labor, thereby improving profitability within that segment. The reduction in labor costs were partially offset by the unfavorable fluctuation of the Mexican Peso exchange rate versus the U.S. Dollar in the 2023 periods presented versus the prior year periods.

The other expenses noted in the table above include fixed cost items such as support labor and fringe, depreciation and amortization, and facility costs (rent, utilities, insurance). In total, these other expenses increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 by $0.6 million and $3.9 million, respectively, as compared to the comparable periods of 2022. Towards the end of the first quarter of 2022, our Connectivity segment increased its production capacity to accommodate the ramp-up in commercial aerospace demand, leading to higher support labor and overhead costs. The first quarter of 2023 includes a full quarter of these incremental costs. In addition, global wage rate increases, both inflationary and government-mandated increases to minimum wage rates, have led to higher fixed costs in the 2023 periods presented as compared to 2022.

Research and Development ("R&D") Expense

R&D expense amounted to $6.0 million and $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $11.2 and $9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increases noted for the 2023 periods were primarily due to higher salaries, benefits and product development costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense (“SG&A”)

SG&A expenses were $25.1 million for the second quarter of 2023, up from $24.0 million in the second quarter of 2022. This increase in SG&A was largely the result of higher SG&A salaries and fringe benefits of $1.4 million and incremental litigation costs of $1.2 million associated with the MPS patent infringement lawsuit further described in Note 15, "Commitments and Contingencies". SG&A expenses were $50.4 million for the first half of 2023, up from $45.0 in the same period of 2022, primarily due to higher SG&A salaries and fringe benefits of $4.2 million and litigation costs of $2.8 million associated with the MPS lawsuit.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net was $0.3 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The year-over-year movements within this line item were largely driven by market fluctuations in our SERP investments which resulted in a gain of $0.4 million and a loss of $1.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company also recorded $0.4 million of losses associated with its investment in innolectric during the second quarter of 2023. Other expense, net was $0.2 million and $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The year-over-year fluctuation was primarily due to market fluctuations in our SERP investments which resulted in a gain of $0.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 versus a loss of $2.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate will fluctuate based on the geographic regions in which the pretax profits are earned. Of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the U.S. and Europe’s tax rates are generally equivalent; and Asia has the lowest tax rates of the Company’s three geographic regions. See Note 12, “Income Taxes”.

The benefit from income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was ($0.5) million and ($2.7) million, respectively. The Company’s earnings before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2023, were $13.0 million higher when compared with the same period in 2022, primarily attributable to an increase in income from the North America and Europe regions, offset by a decrease in the Asia region. The Company’s effective tax rate was (1.8%) and (19.2%) for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, is primarily attributable to a benefit resulting from the impact of permanent differences on U.S. activities, as well as an increase in the tax benefit relating to the reversal of uncertain tax positions resulting from the expiration of certain statute of limitations. See Note 12, “Income Taxes.”

The provision for (benefit from) income taxes was $3.7 million and ($1.2) million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company’s earnings before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2023, were approximately $25.1 million higher than the same period in 2022, primarily attributable to an increase in income in North America and Europe regions, offset by a decrease in the Asia region. The Company’s effective tax rate was 8.0% and (5.7%) for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, is primarily attributable to the same factors noted above. See Note 12, “Income Taxes.”

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity include $65.1 million of cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2023, cash provided by operating activities and borrowings available under our credit facility. We expect to use this liquidity for operating expenses, investments in working capital, capital expenditures, interest, taxes, dividends, debt obligations and other long-term liabilities. We believe that our current liquidity position and future cash flows from operations will enable us to fund our operations, both in the next twelve months and in the longer term.

Cash Flow Summary

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents decreased by $5.2 million. This decrease was primarily due to the following:

| • | purchases of property, plant and equipment of $7.1 million;
| • | payments for our equity method investment in innolectric of $10.0 million;
| • | net repayments under our revolving credit facility of $35.0 million; and
| • | dividend payments of $1.7 million; largely offset by
| • | net cash provided by operating activities of $40.7 million;
| • | proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment of $5.2 million; and
| • | proceeds from the sale of our business in the Czech Republic of $5.2 million

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, our accounts receivable balance did not change significantly. Days sales outstanding (DSO) was 58 days at each of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Inventory decreased by $13.5 million at June 30, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022, as component availability has started to ease and we have worked to consume our inventory on hand. Inventory turns were 2.9 at June 30, 2023 as compared to 2.6 at December 31, 2022.

Cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and accounts receivable comprised approximately 31.2% of our total assets at June 30, 2023 and 31.7% of total assets at December 31, 2022. Our current ratio (i.e., the ratio of current assets to current liabilities) was 2.8 to 1 at each of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $50.8 million and $50.1 million, respectively (or 78% and 71%, respectively), of our cash and cash equivalents was held by our foreign subsidiaries. We repatriated $20.5 million from outside of the U.S. during the six months ended June 30, 2023. We continue to analyze our global working capital and cash requirements and the potential tax liabilities attributable to further repatriation, and we have yet to make any further determination regarding repatriation of funds from outside the U.S. to fund our U.S. operations in the future. In the event these funds were needed for our U.S. operations, we would be required to accrue and pay U.S. state taxes and any applicable foreign withholding taxes to repatriate these funds.

Future Cash Requirements

We expect foreseeable liquidity and capital resource requirements to be met through existing cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash flows from operations, as well as borrowings available under our revolving credit facility, if needed. Our material cash requirements arising in the normal course of business are outlined in Item 7A, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. There were no material changes to our future cash requirements during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Credit Facility

In September 2021, we entered into the CSA, as further described in Note 11, "Debt". During January 2023, we amended our CSA and related interest rate swap agreements to transition the reference rate from LIBOR to a Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") effective January 31, 2023. The CSA contains customary representations and warranties, covenants and events of default. In addition, the CSA contains financial covenants that measure (i) the ratio of our total funded indebtedness, on a consolidated basis, less the aggregate amount of all unencumbered cash and cash equivalents, to the amount of our consolidated EBITDA (“Leverage Ratio”) and (ii) the ratio of the amount of our consolidated EBITDA to our consolidated fixed charges (“Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio”). If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the CSA would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due thereunder and all actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor. At June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with our debt covenants, including the most restrictive covenant, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The unused credit available under the credit facility at June 30, 2023 was $115.0 million, all of which we had the ability to borrow without violating our Leverage Ratio covenant based on our existing consolidated EBITDA.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our condensed consolidated financial statements include certain amounts that are based on management's best estimates and judgments. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, including in some cases future projections, that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Different assumptions and judgments could change the estimates used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements, which, in turn, could change the results from those reported. Management evaluates its estimates, assumptions and judgments on an ongoing basis.

Based on the above, we have determined that our most critical accounting estimates are those related to business combinations, inventory valuation, goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets, and those related to our pension benefit obligations. For a detailed discussion of our critical accounting estimates, refer to “Critical Accounting Estimates” in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates, including assumptions or estimation techniques utilized, as compared to those disclosed in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
