NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(Amounts in tables in thousands of dollars, except for per share amounts)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of The Gorman-Rupp Company (the “Company” or “Gorman-Rupp”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results. In the opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, from which related information herein has been derived.

NOTE 2 - ACQUISITIONS

On May 31, 2022, the Company acquired the assets of Fill-Rite and Sotera (“Fill-Rite”), a division of Tuthill Corporation, for cash consideration of $528.0 million. The transaction was funded with new debt consisting of $350.0 million from a senior secured term loan, $90.0 million from a subordinated unsecured loan, $5.0 million from the new revolving Credit Facility, and $83.0 million of cash on hand. Refer to “Note 10 – Financing Arrangements” for further details related to the financing completed as part of the transaction.

The Company accounted for the Fill-Rite transaction in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 “Business Combinations”. The results of operations for Fill-Rite are included in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income from the acquisition date. Fill-Rite had $13.5 million in net sales and $0.2 million in operating income that was included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Operating income included $1.4 million of inventory step up amortization and $0.2 million of acquired customer backlog amortization in addition to the $1.0 million in amortization on customer relationships and developed technology.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets and liabilities have been recorded at their respective estimated fair values as of the date of completion of the acquisition and reported into the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table presents the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. No adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation were made during the second quarter of 2023 and the purchase price allocation is now final:

Account receivable |  | $ | 21,273 |
Inventory |  |  | 12,214 |
Customer backlog (amortized over 1 year) |  |  | 2,600 |
Other current assets |  |  | 914 |
Property, plant, and equipment |  |  | 24,505 |
Customer relationships (amortized over 20 years) |  |  | 200,900 |
Technology (amortized over 20 years) |  |  | 39,800 |
Tradenames (unamortized) |  |  | 10,700 |
Goodwill |  |  | 230,688 |
Total assets acquired |  | $ | 543,594 |
Current liabilities assumed |  |  | (15,601 | )
Allocated purchase price |  | $ | 527,993 |

For tax purposes, the Fill-Rite acquisition was treated as an asset purchase. As such, the Company received a step-up in tax basis of the net Fill-Rite assets, equal to the purchase price, including goodwill which is deductible for tax purposes.

The transaction costs related to the acquisition approximated $6.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. These costs were expensed as incurred and recorded within selling, general, and administrative expenses.

The following is supplemental pro-forma net sales, operating income, net income, and earnings per share had the Fill-Rite Acquisition occurred as of January 1, 2021 (in millions):

|  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 |
Net sales |  | $ | 286.3 |
Operating income |  | $ | 27.7 |

Senior Secured Credit Agreement

On May 31, 2022, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Credit Agreement with several lenders, which provides a term loan of $350.0 million (“Senior Term Loan Facility”) and a revolving credit facility up to $100.0 million (“Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility has a letter of credit sublimit of up to $15.0 million, as a sublimit of the Credit Facility, and a swing line subfacility of up to $20.0 million, as a sublimit of the Credit Facility. The Company borrowed $5.0 million under the Credit Facility, which, along with the Senior Term Loan Facility, and cash-on-hand and the proceeds of the Subordinated Credit Facility described below, was used to purchase the assets of Fill-Rite as described in “Note 2 – Acquisitions”. The Company has agreed to secure all of its obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement by granting a first priority lien on substantially all of its personal property, and each of Patterson Pump Company, AMT Pump Company, National Pump Company and Fill-Rite Company (collectively, the “Guarantors”) has agreed to guarantee the obligations of the Company under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement and to secure the obligations thereunder by granting a first priority lien in substantially all of such Guarantor’s personal property.

The Senior Secured Credit Agreement has a maturity date of May 31, 2027, with the Senior Term Loan Facility requiring quarterly installment payments commencing on September 30, 2022 and continuing on the last day of each consecutive December, March, June and September thereafter.

At the option of the Company, borrowings under the Senior Term Loan Facility and under the Credit Facility bear interest at either a base rate or at an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, plus the applicable margin, which ranges from 0.75% to 1.75% for base rate loans and 1.75% to 2.75% for Adjusted Term SOFR Rate loans. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s senior leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2023, the applicable interest rate under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement was Adjusted Term SOFR plus 2.5%.

The Senior Secured Credit Agreement includes covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain maximum leverage ratios and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. On June 30, 2023, the Senior Secured Credit Agreement was amended to provide the Company with more flexibility by adjusting the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio to not less than 1.00 to 1.00 for each four consecutive fiscal quarter periods ending June 30, 2023 through and including June 30, 2024 and not less than 1.10 to 1.00 for each four consecutive fiscal quarter periods ending September 30, 2024 through and including December 31, 2024. We were in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of June 30, 2023, including those covenants as they were in effect prior to the amendment of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement.

Subordinated Credit Agreement

On May 31, 2022, the Company entered into an unsecured subordinated credit agreement (“Subordinated Credit Agreement”) which provides for a term loan of $90.0 million (the “Subordinated Credit Facility”). Each of the Guarantors has agreed to guarantee the obligations of the Company under the Subordinated Credit Agreement. The proceeds from the Subordinated Credit Facility, along with cash-on-hand and the proceeds of the Senior Term Loan Facility described above, were used to purchase the assets of Fill-Rite as described in “Note 2 – Acquisitions”.

The Subordinated Credit Agreement has a maturity date of December 1, 2027. If the Subordinated Credit Facility is prepaid prior to the second anniversary, such prepayment must be accompanied by a make-whole premium. If the Subordinated Credit Facility is prepaid after the second anniversary but prior to the third anniversary, such prepayment requires a prepayment fee of 2%, and if the Subordinated Credit Facility is prepaid after the third anniversary but prior to the fourth anniversary, such prepayment requires a prepayment fee of 1%.

At the option of the Company, borrowings under the Subordinated Credit Facility bear interest at either a base rate plus 8.0%, or at an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus 9.0%. As of June 30, 2023 borrowings under the Subordinated Credit Facility bear interest at an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus 9.1%.

The Subordinated Credit Agreement includes covenants subject to maximum leverage ratios. We were in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of June 30, 2023.

Interest Rate Derivatives

The Company entered into interest rate swaps that hedge interest payments on its SOFR borrowing during the fourth quarter of 2022. All swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges. The following table summarizes the notional amounts, related rates and remaining terms of interest swap agreements as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

|  | Notional Amount |  |  | Average Fixed Rate |  |  |
|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | December 31, 2022 |  |  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | December 31, 2022 |  |  | Term
Interest rate swaps |  | $ | 166,250 |  |  | $ | 170,600 |  |  |  | 4.1 | % |  |  | 4.1 | % |  | Extending to May 2027

12

The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps was a receivable of $0.6 million as of June 30, 2023 and a payable of $0.8 million as of December 31, 2022. The fair value was based on inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that are observable either directly or indirectly and therefore considered level 2. The mark-to-market effect of interest rate swap agreements that are considered effective as hedges has been included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. The interest rate swap agreements held by the Company on June 30, 2023 are expected to continue to be effective hedges.

The following table summarizes the fair value of derivative instruments as recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

The Company will vacate its current leased Lenexa manufacturing facility on August 31, 2023, with no additional lease liability after that date. The new lease is considered an operating lease and is subject to annual rent escalations based on the greater of a set minimum percentage or the Consumer Price Index. As result of this lease, the Company recorded a right-of-use (ROU) asset which is included in Other Assets, and a long-term lease liability, which is included in Other Long-Term Liabilities, each of approximately $17.5 million as of June 30, 2023.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Dollars in thousands, except for per share amounts)

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, and notes thereto, and the other financial data included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion should also be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Executive Overview

The Gorman-Rupp Company (“we”, “our”, “Gorman-Rupp” or the “Company”) is a leading designer, manufacturer and international marketer of pumps and pump systems for use in diverse water, wastewater, construction, dewatering, industrial, petroleum, original equipment, agriculture, fire suppression, heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC), military and other liquid-handling applications. The Company attributes its success to long-term product quality, applications and performance combined with timely delivery and service, and continually seeks to develop initiatives to improve performance in these key areas.

We regularly invest in training for our employees, in new product development and in modern manufacturing equipment, technology and facilities all designed to increase production efficiency and capacity and drive growth by delivering innovative solutions to our customers. We believe that the diversity of our markets is a major contributor to the generally stable financial growth we have produced historically.

On May 31, 2022, the Company acquired the assets of Fill-Rite and Sotera (“Fill-Rite”), a division of Tuthill Corporation, for $528.0 million. When adjusted for approximately $80.0 million in expected tax benefits, the net transaction value was approximately $448.0 million. The Company funded the transaction with cash on-hand and new debt. The Company incurred $7.1 million of one-time acquisition costs during the year ended December 31, 2022 and does not expect to incur material acquisition costs in connection with the transaction going forward. The results of operations for Fill-Rite are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income from the acquisition date.

The Company’s backlog of orders was $249.8 million at June 30, 2023 compared to $264.7 million at June 30, 2022 and $267.4 million at December 31, 2022. Incoming orders for the first six months of 2023 were $321.0 million, or an increase of 12.0% compared to the same period in 2022, and a decrease of 13.8% excluding Fill-Rite.

On July 27, 2023, the Board of Directors authorized the payment of a quarterly dividend of $0.175 per share on the common stock of the Company, payable September 8, 2023, to shareholders of record as of August 15, 2023. This will mark the 294th consecutive quarterly dividend paid by The Gorman-Rupp Company.

The Company currently expects to continue its exceptional history of paying regular quarterly dividends and increased annual dividends. However, any future dividends will be reviewed individually and declared by our Board of Directors at its discretion, dependent on our assessment of the Company’s financial condition and business outlook at the applicable time.

Outlook

The Company’s backlog is down from the record level at the end of the first quarter of 2023 but remains elevated, which positions us well for the remainder of the year. We believe that our inventory levels have peaked and that we will see a reduction in the second-half, which will further contribute to our improvements in cash flow. We remain focused on delivering long term sustained growth and continuing to improve our debt leverage.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

The discussion of Results of Operations above includes certain non-GAAP financial data and measures such as adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted earnings is earnings excluding non-cash pension settlement charges, one-time acquisition costs, amortization of step up in value of acquired inventories, and amortization of customer backlog. Adjusted earnings per share is earnings per share excluding non-cash pension settlement charges per share, one-time acquisition costs per share, amortization of step up in value of acquired inventories per share, and amortization of customer backlog per share. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization is net income (loss) excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude non-cash pension settlement charges, one-time acquisition costs, amortization of step up in value of acquired inventories, amortization of customer backlog, and non-cash LIFO expense. Management utilizes these adjusted financial data and measures to assess comparative operations against those of prior periods without the distortion of non-comparable factors. The inclusion of these adjusted measures should not be construed as an indication that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or infrequent items or that the items for which the Company has made adjustments are unusual or infrequent or will not recur. Further, the impact of the LIFO inventory costing method can cause results to vary substantially from company to company depending upon whether they elect to utilize LIFO and depending upon which method they may elect. The Gorman-Rupp Company believes that these non-GAAP financial data and measures also will be useful to investors in assessing the strength of the Company’s underlying operations from period to period. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace GAAP financial measures, and they are not necessarily standardized or comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Provided below is a reconciliation of adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations and borrowings under our Credit Facility. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $12.2 million at June 30, 2023. The Company had an additional $80.9 million available under the revolving credit facility after deducting $17.0 million drawn and $2.1 million in outstanding letters of credit primarily related to customer orders. We believe we have adequate liquidity from funds on hand and borrowing capacity to execute our financial and operating strategy, as well as comply with debt obligation and financial covenants for at least the next 12 months.

20

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $439.5 million in total debt outstanding due in 2027. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants, including limits on additional borrowings and maintenance of certain operating and financial ratios, at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2023 were $13.3 million and consisted primarily of machinery and equipment and building improvements. Capital expenditures for the full-year 2023 are presently planned to be in the range of $18-$20 million primarily for building improvements and machinery and equipment purchases, and are expected to be financed through internally-generated funds.

On July 27, 2023, the Board of Directors authorized the payment of a quarterly dividend of $0.175 per share on the common stock of the Company, payable September 8, 2023, to shareholders of record as of August 15, 2023. This will mark the 294th consecutive quarterly dividend paid by The Gorman-Rupp Company. The Company currently expects to continue its exceptional history of paying regular quarterly dividends and increased annual dividends. However, any future dividends will be reviewed individually and declared by our Board of Directors at its discretion, dependent on our assessment of the Company’s financial condition and business outlook at the applicable time.

The Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to $50.0 million of the Company’s common shares. The actual number of shares repurchased will depend on prevailing market conditions, alternative uses of capital and other factors, and will be determined at management’s discretion. The Company is not obligated to make any purchases under the program, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $48.1 million available for repurchase under the share repurchase program.

Financial Cash Flow

|  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Beginning of period cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 6,783 |  |  | $ | 125,194 |
Net cash provided by operating activities |  |  | 37,856 |  |  |  | 6,692 |
Net cash used for investing activities |  |  | (12,903 | ) |  |  | (534,538 | )
Net cash provided by (used for) financing activities |  |  | (19,461 | ) |  |  | 419,983 |
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash |  |  | (102 | ) |  |  | (503 | )

End of period cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 12,173 |  |  | $ | 16,828 |

The increase in cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2023 compared to the same period last year was primarily due to increased earnings before depreciation, amortization, and LIFO expense, and improved cash flow from better working capital management.

During the first six months of 2023, investing activities of $12.9 million consisted of $13.3 million for capital expenditures primarily for machinery and equipment. During the first six months of 2022, investing activities of $534.5 million consisted of $526.3 million for the acquisition of Fill-Rite and $8.4 million for capital expenditures primarily for machinery and equipment.

Net cash used for financing activities for the first six months of 2023 primarily consisted of net payments on bank borrowings of $8.8 million, dividend payments of $9.1 million, and share repurchases of $1.0 million. Net cash received for financing activities for the first six months of 2022 consisted of proceeds from the new Senior Term Loan Facility of $350.0 million, $90.0 million in unsecured subordinated debt, and $5.0 million from the new revolving credit facility. Partially offsetting these proceeds were debt issuance fees paid of $15.2 million, dividend payments of $8.9 million and share repurchases of $0.9 million during the first six months of 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies are described in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Any new accounting policies or updates to existing accounting policies as a result of new accounting pronouncements have been discussed in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The application of our critical accounting policies may require management to make judgments and estimates about the amounts reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Management uses historical experience and all available information to make these estimates and judgments, and different amounts could be reported using different assumptions and estimates.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

In connection with the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, The Gorman-Rupp Company provides the following cautionary statement: This Form 10-Q contains various forward-looking statements based on assumptions concerning The Gorman-Rupp Company’s operations, future results and prospects. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations about important economic, political, and technological factors, among others, and are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause the actual results or events to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by the forward-looking statements and related assumptions.

Such uncertainties include, but are not limited to, our estimates of future earnings and cash flows, general economic conditions and supply chain conditions and any related impact on costs and availability of materials, integration of the Fill-Rite business in a timely and cost effective manner, retention of supplier and customer relationships and key employees, the ability to achieve synergies and cost savings in the amounts and within the time frames currently anticipated and the ability to service and repay indebtedness incurred in connection with the transaction. Other factors include, but are not limited to: company specific risk factors including (1) loss of key personnel; (2) intellectual property security; (3) acquisition performance and integration; (4) the Company’s indebtedness and how it may impact the Company’s financial condition and the way it operates its business; (5) general risks associated with acquisitions; (6) the anticipated benefits from the Fill-Rite transaction may not be realized; (7) impairment in the value of intangible assets, including goodwill; (8) defined benefit pension plan settlement expense; (9) LIFO inventory method, and (10) family ownership of common equity; and general risk factors including (11) continuation of the current and projected future business environment; (12) highly competitive markets; (13) availability and costs of raw materials and labor; (14) cyber security threats; (15) compliance with, and costs related to, a variety of import and export laws and regulations; (16) environmental compliance costs and liabilities; (17) exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; (18) conditions in foreign countries in which The Gorman-Rupp Company conducts business; (19) changes in our tax rates and exposure to additional income tax liabilities; and (20) risks described from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Except to the extent required by law, we do not undertake and specifically decline any obligation to review or update any forward-looking statements or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any of such statements to reflect future events or developments or otherwise.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Exposure to foreign exchange rate risk is due to certain costs and revenue being denominated in currencies other than one of the Company’s subsidiaries functional currency. The Company is also exposed to market risk as the result of changes in interest rates which may affect the cost of financing. We continually monitor these risks and regularly develop appropriate strategies to manage them. Accordingly, from time to time, we may enter into certain derivative or other financial instruments. These financial instruments are used to mitigate market exposure and are not used for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

The results of operations are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily with respect to borrowings under the Company’s Senior Term Loan Facility, Credit Facility, and Subordinated Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Senior Term Loan Facility and Credit Facility may be made either at (i) a base rate plus the applicable margin, which ranges from 0.75% to 1.75%, or at (ii) an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, plus the applicable margin, which ranges from 1.75% to 2.75%. Borrowings under the Subordinated Credit Facility bear interest at (i) either a base rate plus 8.0%, or at (ii) an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus 9.1%. At June 30, 2023, the Company had $332.5 million in borrowings under the Senior Term Loan Facility, $17.0 million in borrowings under the Credit Facility, and $90.0 million in borrowings under the Subordinated Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2023, the applicable interest rates under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement and the Subordinated Credit Facility were Adjusted Term SOFR plus 2.5% and Adjusted Term SOFR plus 9.1%, respectively.

To reduce the exposure to changes in the market rate of interest, effective October 31, 2022, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements for a portion of the Senior Term Loan Facility. Terms of the interest rate swap agreements require the Company to receive a fixed interest rate and pay a variable interest rate. The interest rate swap agreements are designated as a cash flow hedge, and as a result, the mark-to-market gains or losses will be deferred and included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to interest expense in the period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.

The Company estimates that a hypothetical increase of 100 basis points in interest rates would increase interest expense by approximately $2.7 million on an annual basis.

22

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company’s foreign currency exchange rate risk is limited primarily to the Euro, Canadian Dollar, South African Rand and British Pound. The Company manages its foreign exchange risk principally through invoicing customers in the same currency as is used in the market of the source of products. The foreign currency transaction gains (losses) for the six month periods ending June 30, 2023 and 2022 were ($0.4) million and $0.1 million, respectively, and are reported within Other (expense) income, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As of June 30, 2023, we are in the process of integrating the internal controls of the acquired Fill-Rite business into Gorman-Rupp’s existing operations as part of planned integration activities. In addition, we have implemented new processes and internal controls to assist us in the preparation and disclosure of financial information. There were no other changes in Gorman-Rupp’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Gorman-Rupp’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2023.
