Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation and Description of the Business | The accompanying unaudited statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Description of the Business Astronics Corporation (“Astronics” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of advanced technologies to the global aerospace, defense and electronics industries. Our products and services include advanced, high-performance electrical power generation, distribution and motion systems, lighting and safety systems, avionics products, systems and certification, aircraft structures and automated test systems. We have principal operations in the United States (“U.S.”), Canada, France and England, as well as engineering offices in Ukraine and India.
Operating Results | Operating Results The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic and supply chain disruptions have increased the volatility we experience in our financial results in recent periods and this could continue in future interim and annual periods. Operating results for the six months ended July 1, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The balance sheet at December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements.
Restricted Cash | Restricted CashUnder the provisions of the ABL Revolving Credit Facility (as defined and discussed below in Note 7), the Company has a lockbox arrangement with the banking institution for its accounts within the United States whereby daily lockbox receipts are contractually utilized to pay down outstanding balances on the ABL Revolving Credit Facility debt. Lockbox balances that have not yet been applied to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are classified as restricted cash in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.
Trade Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets | Trade Accounts Receivable and Contract AssetsThe allowance for estimated credit losses is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as the age of the receivable balances, historical experience, credit quality, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay.The Company's exposure to credit losses may increase if its customers are adversely affected by global economic recessions, disruption associated with the COVID-19 pandemic or the Russian/Ukrainian conflict, industry conditions, or other customer-specific factors. Although the Company has historically not experienced significant credit losses, it is possible that there could be a material adverse impact from potential adjustments of the carrying amount of trade receivables and contract assets as airlines and other aerospace companies’ cash flows are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and associated supply chain disruptions.
Research and Development Expenses | Research and Development Expenses Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and include salaries, benefits, consulting, material costs and depreciation. Research and development expenses amounted to $12.7 million and $12.6 million for three months ended and $25.4 million and $24.8 million for the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively. These costs are included in cost of products sold.
Valuation of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets | Valuation of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets The Company tests goodwill at the reporting unit level on an annual basis or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Long-lived assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever adverse effects or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The recoverability test consists of comparing the undiscounted projected cash flows with the carrying amount. Should the carrying amount exceed undiscounted projected cash flows, an impairment loss would be recognized to the extent the carrying amount exceeds fair value.
Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncement | Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncement We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Recent ASUs were assessed and determined to be either not applicable, or had or are expected to have minimal impact on our financial statements and related disclosures.
