PART I

(Dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)

Item 1. | Business

Graham Corporation ("we," "us," "our") is a global business that designs, manufactures and sells critical equipment for the energy, defense and chemical/petrochemical industries. Our energy markets include oil refining, cogeneration, nuclear and alternative power. For the defense industry, our equipment is used in nuclear propulsion power systems for the U.S. Navy. For the chemical and petrochemical industries, our equipment is used in fertilizer, ethylene, methanol and downstream chemical facilities. Graham’s global brand is built upon our world-renowned engineering expertise in vacuum and heat transfer technology, responsive and flexible customer service and high-quality standards. We design and manufacture custom-engineered ejectors, vacuum pumping systems, surface condensers and vacuum systems. We are also a leading nuclear code accredited fabrication and specialty machining company. We supply components used inside reactor vessels and outside containment vessels of nuclear power facilities. Our equipment can also be found in other diverse applications such as metal refining, pulp and paper processing, water heating, refrigeration, desalination, food processing, pharmaceutical, heating, ventilating and air conditioning.

Our corporate headquarters are located in Batavia, New York. We have production facilities co-located with our headquarters in Batavia and also at our wholly-owned subsidiary, Energy Steel & Supply Co. ("Energy Steel"), located in Lapeer, Michigan. We also have a wholly-owned foreign subsidiary, Graham Vacuum and Heat Transfer Technology (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. ("GVHTT"), located in Suzhou, China. GVHTT provides sales and engineering support for us in the People’s Republic of China and management oversight throughout Southeast Asia.

We were incorporated in Delaware in 1983 and are the successor to Graham Manufacturing Co., Inc., which was incorporated in New York in 1936. As of March 31, 2018, we had 304 employees. Our stock is traded on the NYSE under the ticker symbol "GHM".

Unless indicated otherwise, dollar figures in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are reported in thousands.

| — | liquefied natural gas production facilities

Our principal customers include end users of our products in their manufacturing, refining and power generation processes, large engineering companies that build installations for companies in such industries, and the original equipment manufacturers who combine our products with their equipment prior to its sale to end users.

Our products are sold by a team of sales engineers we employ directly as well as by independent sales representatives located worldwide. There may be short periods of time, a fiscal year for example, where one customer may make up greater than 10% of our business. No single customer accounted for greater than 10% of our business in 2018. However, if this occurs in multiple years, it is usually not the same customer or project over such a multi-year period.

Due to our diversification efforts, our business that supports the U.S. Navy and commercial nuclear market has increased, resulting in greater domestic sales. Over a business cycle, our domestic sales will generally range between 50% and 75% of total sales. The mix of domestic and international sales can vary from year to year.

A breakdown of our net sales by geographic area and product class for our fiscal years ended March 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, which we refer to as "fiscal 2018," "fiscal 2017" and "fiscal 2016", respectively, is contained in Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and such breakdown is incorporated into this Item 1 by reference. Our backlog at March 31, 2018 was $117,946 compared with $82,590 at March 31, 2017.

Our Strengths

Our core strengths include:

| • | We have a value-enhancing sales and development platform. We believe our customer-facing platform of sales, project estimating and application engineering are competitive advantages. We have tools and capabilities to iterate quickly and comprehensively as customers evaluate how best to integrate our equipment into their facilities. We find that our early and deep involvement adds significant value to the process and is an important competitive differentiator in the long sales cycle industries we serve. We believe customers need our engineering and fabrication expertise early in the project life cycle to understand how best to specify our equipment.

| • | We are renowned for our strong capabilities to handle complex, custom orders. The orders we receive are extremely complex and the order management platforms in our businesses provide a second competitive differentiator for our company. Typically there is intense interaction between our project management teams and the end user or its engineering firm as product design and quality requirements are finalized after an order is placed. We have built strong capabilities which we believe allows us to successfully execute high quality, engineered-to-order and build-to-spec process-critical equipment. In our markets, order administration, risk management, cost containment, quality and engineering documentation are as important as the equipment itself. The supplier selection process begins with assessing whether a supplier can manage all aspects of an order.

| • | We maintain a responsive, flexible production environment. We believe the operations platform in our businesses is adept at handling low volume, high mix orders that are highly customized fabrications. We also believe that our production environment is much different from a highly engineered standard products business. While certain equipment in a product group may look similar, there are often subtle differences which are required to deliver the desired specification. Also, during production it is not uncommon for customer-driven engineering changes to occur that alter the configuration of what had been initially released into production. The markets that we serve demand this flexible operating model.

| • | We provide robust after-the-sale technical support. Our engineering and service personnel go to customer sites to audit the performance of our equipment, provide operator training and troubleshoot performance issues. Technical service after a sale is important to our customer as we believe their focus is always on leveraging our equipment to maximize its capabilities.

| • | We have a highly trained workforce. We maintain a long-tenured, highly skilled and extremely flexible workforce.

4

| • | We have a strong balance sheet. We maintain significant cash and investments on hand, and no bank debt, which we believe provides us with the flexibility to pursue our business strategy, including growth by acquisition.

| • | We have a high-quality credit facility. Our credit facilities provide us with a $30,000 borrowing capacity that is expandable at our option to provide us with up to a total of $55,000 in borrowing capacity.

Our Strategy

We intend to strategically leverage and deploy our assets, including but not limited to, financial, technical, manufacturing and know-how, in order to capture expanded market share within the geographies and industries we serve, expand revenue opportunities in adjacent and countercyclical markets and continually improve our results of operations in order to:

•Generate sustainable earnings growth;

•Reduce earnings volatility;

•Improve our operating performance;

•Generate strong cash flow from operations;

•Meet or exceed our customers’ expectations;

•Improve the value we provide to our customers; and

•Provide an acceptable return to our shareholders.

To accomplish our objectives and maintain strategic focus, we believe that we must:

| • | Successfully deploy our corporate assets to expand our market share in the industries we currently serve, access and develop a stronger presence in industries where we do not have a historically strong presence, and pursue acquisitions, partnerships and/or other business combinations in order to enter new geographic or industrial markets, new product lines or expand our coverage in existing markets.

| • | Identify organic growth opportunities and consummate acquisitions where we believe the strength of the Graham and Energy Steel brands will provide us with the ability to expand and complement our core businesses. We intend to extend our existing product lines, move into complementary product lines and expand our global sales presence in order to further broaden our existing markets and reach additional markets.

| • | Expand our market presence in the U.S. Navy's Nuclear Propulsion Program. We will continue to demonstrate our proficiency by successfully executing the complex Nuclear Propulsion Program orders that are currently in our backlog by controlling both cost and risk, providing high-quality custom fabrication to exacting military quality control requirements and through disciplined project management. We intend to continue to be a preferred supplier of equipment to the U.S. Navy’s Nuclear Propulsion Program for both surface and submarine vessels.

| • | Expand our market penetration in the domestic and international nuclear power industry. We also intend to identify additional domestic and international opportunities to serve the commercial nuclear power industry.

| • | Continue to invest in people and capital equipment to meet the anticipated long-term growth in demand for our products in the oil refining, petrochemical processing and power generation industries, especially in emerging markets.

| • | Continue to deliver the highest quality products and solutions that enable our customers to achieve their operating objectives. We believe that our high quality and technical expertise differentiates us from our competitors and allows us to win new orders based on value.

In order to effectively implement our strategy, we also believe that we must continually invest in and leverage our unique customer value enhancing differentiators, including:

| • | Invest in engineering resources and technology in order to advance our vacuum and heat transfer technology market penetration.

5

| • | Enhance our engineering capacity and capability, especially in connection with product design, in order to more quickly respond to existing and future customer demands.

| • | Invest in our manufacturing operations to improve productivity where needed and identify out-sourced capacity to complement our growth strategies.

| • | Accelerate our ability to quickly and efficiently bid on available projects through our ongoing implementation of front-end bid automation and design processes.

| • | Invest in resources to further serve the U.S. Navy in our core competency areas of engineering and manufacturing, where our commercial capabilities meet U.S. Navy requirements.

| • | Expand our capabilities and increase our penetration of the existing sales channel and customer base in the nuclear market.

| • | Implement and expand upon our operational efficiencies through ongoing refinement of our flexible manufacturing flow model as well as achievement of other cost efficiencies.

| • | Focus on improving quality to eliminate errors and rework, thereby reducing lead time and enhancing productivity.

| • | Develop a cross-trained, flexible workforce able to adjust to variable product demands by our customers.

Intellectual Property

Our success depends in part on our ability to protect our proprietary technologies. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret laws and contractual confidentiality provisions to establish and protect our proprietary rights. We also depend heavily on the brand recognition of the Graham and Energy Steel names in the marketplace.

Availability of Raw Materials

Historically, we have not been materially adversely impacted by the availability of raw materials.

Working Capital Practices

Our business does not require us to carry significant amounts of inventory or materials beyond what is needed for work in process. We negotiate progress payments from our customers on our large projects to finance costs incurred. We do not provide rights to return goods, or payment terms to customers that we consider to be extended in the context of the industries we serve. However, we do provide for warranty claims.

Environmental Matters

We believe that we are in material compliance with applicable existing environmental laws and regulations. We do not anticipate that our compliance with federal, state and local laws regulating the discharge of material in the environment or otherwise pertaining to the protection of the environment will have a material adverse affect upon our capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.

Seasonality

No material part of our business is seasonal in nature. However, our business is highly cyclical in nature as it depends on the willingness of our customers to invest in major capital projects.

Research and Development Activities

During fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, we spent $3,211, $3,863 and $3,746, respectively, on research and development activities related both to new products and services and the ongoing improvement of existing products and services.

Information Regarding International Sales

The sale of our products outside the U.S. accounted for a significant portion of our total revenue during our last three fiscal years. Approximately 33%, 25% and 37% of our revenue in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively, resulted from foreign sales. Sales in Asia constituted approximately 13%, 8% and 10% of our revenue in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively. Sales in the Middle East constituted approximately 5%, 3% and 12% of our revenue in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively. Our foreign sales and operations are subject to numerous risks, as discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of Part I and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Employees

As of March 31, 2018, we had 304 employees. We believe that our relationship with our employees is good.

Available Information

We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Therefore, we file current reports, periodic reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The SEC maintains a website (located at www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy statements and other information for registrants that file electronically. Additionally, such reports may be read and copied at the Public Reference Room of the SEC at 100 F Street NE, Washington, D.C. 20549. Information regarding the SEC's Public Reference Room can be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

We maintain a website located at www.graham-mfg.com. On our website, we provide a link to the SEC's website that contains the reports, proxy statements and other information we file electronically. We do not provide this information on our website because it is more cost effective for us to provide a link to the SEC's website. Copies of all documents we file with the SEC are

7

available free of charge in print for any stockholder who makes a request. Such requests should be made to our Corporate Secretary at our corporate headquarters. The other information found on our website is not part of this or any other report we file with, or furnish to, the SEC.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our business and operations are subject to numerous risks, many of which are described below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. If any of the events described below or elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K occur, our business and results of operations could be harmed. Additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to us, or which we currently deem to be immaterial, could also harm our business and results of operations.

Risks related to our business

The markets we serve include the petroleum refining and petrochemical industries. These industries are both highly cyclical in nature and dependent on the prices of crude oil and natural gas as well as on the differential between the two prices. As a result, volatility in the prices of oil and natural gas may negatively impact our operating results.

A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from the sale of our products to companies in the chemical, petrochemical, petroleum refining and power generating industries, or to firms that design and construct facilities for these industries. These industries are highly cyclical and have historically experienced severe downturns. We have been in such a downturn, which was sudden when it started and has begun to show signs of an initial recovery. The prices of crude oil and natural gas have historically been very volatile, as evidenced by the extreme volatility in oil prices over the past few years. This volatility caused a steep decline in orders from the energy markets during the three-year period ending September 2017. The increased supply and reduction in price of natural gas in North America has also caused a significant change in the global energy markets in the past few years. During times of significant volatility in the market for crude oil or natural gas, our customers often refrain from placing orders until the market stabilizes and future demand projections are clearer. If our customers refrain from placing orders with us, our revenue would decline and there could be a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations. Despite the near-term recent volatility, we believe that over the long-term, demand for our products will expand in the petrochemical, petroleum refining and power generating industries, however, the current volatility in oil prices confirms that cyclical downturns will occur periodically. A sustained deterioration in any of the industries we serve would materially harm our business and operating results because our customers would not likely have the resources necessary to purchase our products, nor would they likely have the need to build additional facilities or improve existing facilities. As we have seen in the past few years, a cyclical downturn can occur suddenly and result in extremely different financial performance sequentially from quarter to quarter or on an annual comparative basis due to an inability to rapidly adjust costs.

The relative costs of oil, natural gas, nuclear power, hydropower and numerous forms of alternative energy production may have a material adverse impact on our business and operating results.

Global and regional energy supply comes from many sources, including oil, natural gas, coal, hydro, nuclear, solar, wind, geothermal and biomass, among others. A cost or supply shift among these sources could negatively impact our business opportunities going forward and the profitability of those opportunities. A demand shift, where technological advances favor the utilization of one or a few sources of energy may also impact the demand for our products. If demand shifts in a manner that increases energy utilization outside of our traditional customer base or expertise, our business and financial results could be materially adversely affected. In addition, governmental policy can affect the relative importance of various forms of energy sources. For example, non-fossil based sources may require and often receive government tax incentives to foster investment. If these incentives become more prominent, our business and results of operations could suffer.

Our business is highly competitive. If we are unable to successfully implement our business strategy and compete against entities with greater resources than us or against competitors who have a relative cost advantage, we risk losing market share to current and future competitors.

We encounter intense competition in all of our markets. Some of our present and potential competitors may have substantially greater financial, marketing, technical or manufacturing resources. Our competitors may also be able to respond more quickly to new technologies or processes and changes in customer demands and they may be able to devote greater resources towards the development, promotion and sale of their products. Certain of our competitors may also have a cost advantage compared to us due to their geography or changes in relative currency values and may compete against us based on price. This may affect our ability to secure new business and maintain our level of profitability. In addition, our current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties that increase their ability to address the needs of our customers. Moreover, customer buying patterns can change if customers become more price sensitive and accepting of

8

lower cost suppliers. If we cannot compete successfully against current or future competitors, our business will be materially adversely affected.

A change in our end use customers, our markets, or a change in the engineering procurement and construction companies serving our markets could harm our business and negatively impact our financial results.

Although we have long-term relationships with many of our end use customers and with many engineering, procurement and construction companies, the project management requirements, pricing levels and costs to support each customer and customer type are often different. Our customers have historically focused on the quality of the engineering and product solutions which we have provided to them. As our markets continue to grow, and new market opportunities expand, we could see a shift in pricing as a result of facing competitors with lower production costs, which may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial results. In certain developing geographies, the relative importance of cost versus quality may lead to decisions which look at short-term costs instead of total long-term cost of operations.

A change in the structure of our markets; the relationships between engineering and procurement companies, original equipment suppliers, others in the supply chain and any of their relationships with the end users could harm our business and negatively impact our financial results.

There are strong and long-standing relationships throughout the supply chain between the many parties involved in serving the end user of our products. A change in the landscape between engineering and procurement companies, original equipment suppliers, others in the supply chain and/or with the end users could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations. These changes might occur through acquisitions or other business partnership and could have a material impact on our business and negatively impact our financial results.

The loss of, or significant reduction or delay in, purchases by our largest customers could reduce our revenue and adversely affect our results of operations.

A small number of customers has accounted for a substantial portion of our historical net sales. For example, sales to our top ten customers, who can vary each year, accounted for 41%, 38% and 30% of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively. We expect that a limited number of customers will continue to represent a substantial portion of our sales for the foreseeable future. The loss of any of our major customers, a decrease or delay in orders or anticipated spending by such customers or a delay in the production of existing orders could materially adversely affect our revenues and results of operations.

We may experience customer concentration risk related to strategic growth for U.S. Navy projects

We believe our strategy to increase the penetration of U.S. Navy related opportunities will lead to U.S. Navy related projects consistently being greater than 10% of our total revenue. While these projects are spread across multiple contractors for the U.S. Navy, the end customer for these projects is the same. This concentration of business could add additional risk to Graham should there be a disruption, short or long term, in the funding for these projects or our participation in the U.S. Navy Nuclear Propulsion program.

A large percentage of our sales occur outside of the U.S. As a result, we are subject to the economic, political, regulatory and other risks of international operations.

For fiscal 2018, 33% of our revenue was from customers located outside of the U.S. Moreover, we maintain a subsidiary and a sales office in China. We believe that revenue from the sale of our products outside the U.S. will continue to account for a significant portion of our total revenue for the foreseeable future. We intend to continue to expand our international operations to the extent that suitable opportunities become available. Our foreign operations and sales could be adversely affected as a result of:

| • | nationalization of private enterprises and assets;

| • | political or economic instability in certain countries and regions, such as the ongoing instability throughout the Middle East and/or portions of the former Soviet Union;

| • | political relationships between the U.S. and certain countries and regions;

| • | differences in foreign laws, including difficulties in protecting intellectual property and uncertainty in enforcement of contract rights;

9

| • | the possibility that foreign governments may adopt regulations or take other actions that could directly or indirectly harm our business and growth strategy;

| • | credit risks;

| • | currency fluctuations;

| • | tariff and tax increases;

| • | export and import restrictions and restrictive regulations of foreign governments;

| • | shipping products during times of crisis or wars;

| • | our failure to comply with U.S. laws regarding doing business in foreign jurisdictions, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; or

| • | other factors inherent in maintaining foreign operations.

The impact of potential changes in customs and trade policies in the United States and the potential corresponding actions by other countries in which we do business could adversely affect our financial performance.

The U.S. government has made proposals that are intended to address trade imbalances, which include encouraging increased production in the United States. These proposals could result in increased customs duties and the renegotiation of some U.S. trade agreements. We engage in sales outside of the United States. If custom duties are implemented or increased, it also may cause the trading partners of the United States to take actions with respect to U.S. imports in their respective countries. Any potential changes in trade policies in the United States and the potential corresponding actions by other countries in which we do business could adversely affect our financial performance.

The effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on our business have not yet been fully analyzed and could have an adverse affect on our results of operations.

On December 22, 2017, U.S. President Donald Trump signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, or the Tax Act. The Tax Act made broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including, but not limited to reducing the Federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, requiring a one-time transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred and creating new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. The one-time transition tax is based on the total post-1986 earnings and profits of our foreign subsidiary that was previously deferred from U.S. income taxes. We continue to analyze the impact the Tax Act may have on our business including the impact of the total post-1986 foreign earnings and profits for our foreign subsidiary. Notwithstanding the reduction in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate, the overall impact of the Tax Act is uncertain and our business and financial condition could be adversely affected. In addition, guidance is still forthcoming, and no assurance can be made that future guidance will not adversely affect our business, financial condition, or operating results.

Global demand growth could be led by emerging markets, which could result in lower profit margins and increased competition.

The increase in global demand could be led by emerging markets. If this is the case, we may face increased competition from lower cost suppliers, which in turn could lead to lower profit margins on our products. Customers in emerging markets may also place less emphasis on our high quality and brand name than do customers in the U.S. and certain other industrialized countries where we compete. If we are forced to compete for business with customers that place less emphasis on quality and brand recognition than our current customers, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Climate change and greenhouse gas regulations may affect our customers’ investment decisions.

Due to concern over the risk of climate change, a number of countries have adopted, or are considering the adoption of, regulatory frameworks to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. These restrictions may affect our customers’ abilities and willingness to invest in new facilities or to re-invest in current operations. These requirements could impact the cost of our customers’ products, lengthen project implementation times, and reduce demand for hydrocarbons, as well as shift hydrocarbon demand toward lower-carbon sources. Any of the foregoing could adversely impact the demand for our products, which in turn could have an adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

The operations of our Chinese subsidiary may be adversely affected by China’s evolving economic, political and social conditions.

We conduct our business in China primarily through our wholly-owned Chinese subsidiary. The results of operations and future prospects of our Chinese subsidiary may be adversely affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political, economic and social conditions, changes in the relationship between China and its western trade partners, changes in policies of the Chinese government, changes in laws and regulations or in the interpretation of existing laws and regulations, changes in foreign exchange regulations, measures that may be introduced to control inflation, such as interest rate increases, and changes in the rates or methods of taxation. In addition, changes in demand could result from increased competition from local Chinese manufacturers who have cost advantages or who may be preferred suppliers for Chinese end users. Also, Chinese commercial laws, regulations and interpretations applicable to non-Chinese owned market participants, such as us, are continually changing. These laws, regulations and interpretations could impose restrictions on our ownership or operations of our interests in China and have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

Intellectual property rights are difficult to enforce in China, which could harm our business.

Chinese commercial law is relatively undeveloped compared with the commercial law in many of our other major markets and limited protection of intellectual property is available in China as a practical matter. Although we take precautions in the operations of our Chinese subsidiary to protect our intellectual property, any local design or manufacture of products that we undertake in China could subject us to an increased risk that unauthorized parties will be able to copy or otherwise obtain or use our intellectual property, which could harm our business. We may also have limited legal recourse in the event we encounter patent or trademark infringers, which could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

Uncertainties with respect to the Chinese legal system may adversely affect the operations of our Chinese subsidiary.

Our Chinese subsidiary is subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China. There are uncertainties regarding the interpretation and enforcement of laws, rules and policies in China. The Chinese legal system is based on written statutes, and prior court decisions have limited precedential value. Because many laws and regulations are relatively new and the Chinese legal system is still evolving, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform. Moreover, the relative inexperience of China’s judiciary in many cases creates additional uncertainty as to the outcome of any litigation, and the interpretation of statutes and regulations may be subject to government policies reflecting domestic political agendas. Finally, enforcement of existing laws or contracts based on existing law may be uncertain and sporadic. For the preceding reasons, it may be difficult for us to obtain timely or equitable enforcement of laws ostensibly designed to protect companies like ours, which could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

Changes in U.S. and foreign energy policy regulations could adversely affect our business.

Energy policy in the U.S. and in the other countries where we sell our products is evolving rapidly and we anticipate that energy policy will continue to be an important legislative priority in the jurisdictions where we sell our products. It is difficult, if not impossible, to predict the changes in energy policy that could occur, as they may be related to changes in political administration, public policy or other factors. The elimination of, or a change in, any of the current rules and regulations in any of our markets could create a regulatory environment that makes our end users less likely to purchase our products, which could have a material adverse affect on our business. Government subsidies or taxes, which favor or disfavor certain energy sources compared with others, could have a material adverse affect on our business and operating results.

Efforts to reduce large U.S. federal budget deficits could result in government cutbacks or shifts in focus in defense spending or in reduced incentives to pursue alternative energy projects, resulting in reduced demand for our products, which could harm our business and results of operations.

Our business strategy calls for us to continue to pursue defense-related projects as well as projects for end users in the alternative energy markets in the U.S. In recent years, the U.S. federal government has incurred large budget deficits. In the event that U.S. federal government defense spending is reduced or alternative energy related incentives are reduced or eliminated in an effort to reduce federal budget deficits, projects related to defense or alternative energy may become less plentiful. The impact of such reductions could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations, as well as our growth opportunities.

U.S. Navy orders are subject to annual government funding. A disruption in funding could adversely impact our business.

One of our growth strategies is to increase our penetration of U.S. Navy-related opportunities. Projects for the U.S. Navy and its contractors generally have a much longer order-to-shipment time period than our commercial orders. The time between the awarding of an order to complete shipment can take three to seven years. Annual government funding is required to continue the production of this equipment. Disruption of government funding, short or long term, could impact the ability for us to continue our

11

production activity on these orders. Since this business is expected to increase as a percentage of our overall business, such a disruption, should it occur, could adversely impact the sales and profitability of our business.

Changes in the competitive environment for U.S. Navy procurement could adversely impact our ability to grow this portion of our business.

Over the past few years, we have expanded our business and the opportunities where we bid related to U.S. Navy projects. This has increased our market share and caused an adverse share position for some of our competitors for these products. Competitor response to our market penetration is possible. Our customers may also raise concerns about their supplier concentration issues and the risk exposure related to this concentration. As the U.S. Navy is looking to expand its fleet, there is also a risk that their facilities, their supply chain or our supply chain for raw materials, may not be able to support this expansion. This could adversely impact our ability to grow this portion of our business.

Contract liabilities for large U.S. Navy contracts may be beyond our normal insurance coverage and a claim could have an adverse impact on our financial results.

We are diligent at managing ongoing risks related to projects and the requirements of our customers. Our history at managing risk provides significant evidence that our exposure and risk is minimal. In addition, we secure business insurance coverage to minimize the impact of a major failure or liability related to our customers. Due to certain U.S. government procurement policies, we may take on the risk of a liability for large U.S. Navy projects in excess of our insurance coverage and at a level which is higher than our commercial projects. A claim related to one of these projects could have an adverse impact on our financial results.

New technology used by the ships for the U.S. Navy may delay projects and may impact our ability to grow this portion of our business.

Certain U.S. Navy vessels are implementing new technologies, unrelated to any of the equipment that we provide. If there is a complication or delay to any ship caused by this new technology, it may delay the procurement and fabrication of future vessels, which could have a negative impact on our business.

Political and regulatory developments could continue to make the utilization and growth of nuclear power as an energy source less desirable in the geographic markets we serve, which would harm our business and results of operations.

A global event, such as a major earthquake or terrorist activity, may impact the desirability of operating existing nuclear power plants or building new or replacement nuclear plants facilities. Should public opinion or political pressure result in the continued closing of existing nuclear facilities or otherwise result in the continued erosion of the nuclear power industry, especially within the U.S., the business, results of operations and growth prospects in the nuclear market could be materially adversely impacted.

In addition, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, or NRC, performs operational and safety reviews of nuclear facilities in the U.S. It is possible that the NRC could take actions or impose regulations that adversely affect the demand for our products and services, or otherwise delay or prohibit construction of new nuclear power generation facilities, even temporarily. If any such event were to occur, our business or operations could be materially adversely impacted.

Near-term income statement impact from competitive contracts could adversely affect our operating results.

During weaker market periods, we may choose to be more aggressive in pricing certain competitive projects to protect or gain market share or to increase the utilization of our facilities. In these situations, it is possible that an incrementally profitable order, while increasing contribution, may be unprofitable from an accounting perspective when including fixed manufacturing costs. In these situations, we are required to recognize the financial loss at the time of order acceptance, or as soon as our cost estimates are updated, whichever occurs first. It is possible we may accumulate losses either on a large project or more than one project such that, in a short time period, for example, a reporting quarter, these losses may have a meaningful impact on the earnings of the period.

Our operating results could be adversely affected by customer contract cancellations and delays.

The value of our backlog as of March 31, 2018 was $117,946. Our backlog can be significantly affected by the timing of large orders. The amount of our backlog at March 31, 2018 is not necessarily indicative of future backlog levels or the rate at which our backlog will be recognized as sales. Although historically the amount of modifications and terminations of our orders has not been material compared with our total contract volume, customers can, and sometimes do, terminate or modify their orders. This generally occurs more often in times of end market or capital market turmoil. As evidence of this, we had orders totaling $24,361 cancelled during the downturn between fiscal 2015 through fiscal 2017, but have had no cancellations in fiscal 2018. We cannot predict whether cancellations will occur or accelerate in the future. Although certain of our contracts in backlog may contain provisions allowing for us to assess cancellation charges to our customers to compensate us for costs incurred on cancelled contracts,

12

cancellations of purchase orders or modifications made to existing contracts could substantially and materially reduce our backlog and, consequently, our future sales and results of operations. Moreover, delay of contract execution by our customers can result in volatility in our operating results.

Our current backlog contains a number of large orders from the U.S. Navy. In addition, we are continuing to pursue business in these end markets which offer large multi-year projects which have an added risk profile beyond that of our historic customer base. A delay, long-term extension or cancellation of any of these projects could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

An extended downturn could adversely impact the financial stability of our customers and increase the risk of uncollectable accounts receivables.

Our customers participate in cyclical markets, such as petroleum refining, petrochemical and nuclear energy. The financial strength of our customers can be impacted by a severe or lengthy downturn in these markets. This could lead to additional risk in our ability to collect outstanding accounts receivables. We attempt to mitigate this risk with the utilization of progress payments for many projects, but certain industries, end markets and geographies are not as willing to make progress payments. Certain projects require a small portion of the total payments to be held until the customer’s facility is fully operational, which can be in excess of one year beyond our delivery of equipment to them. This additional time may add risk to our ability to collect on the outstanding accounts receivables.

Our exposure to fixed-price contracts and the timely completion of such contracts could negatively impact our results of operations.

A substantial portion of our sales is derived from fixed-price contracts, which may involve long-term fixed price commitments by us to our customers. While we believe our contract management processes are strong, we nevertheless could experience difficulties in executing large contracts, including but not limited to, estimating errors, cost overruns, supplier failures and customer disputes. To the extent that any of our fixed-price contracts are delayed, our subcontractors fail to perform, contract counterparties successfully assert claims against us, the original cost estimates in these or other contracts prove to be inaccurate or the contracts do not permit us to pass increased costs on to our customers, our profitability may decrease or losses may be incurred which, in turn, could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations. For our U.S. Navy projects, these fixed priced contracts have order to shipment periods which can exceed five years. This additional time-based risk, which we believe is manageable, nevertheless increases the likelihood of cost fluctuation, which could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operation.

Given our size and specialization of our business, if we lose any member of our management team and we experience difficulty in finding a qualified replacement, our business could be harmed.

Competition for qualified management and key technical and sales personnel in our industry is intense. Moreover, our technology is highly specialized, and it may be difficult to replace the loss of any of our key technical and sales personnel. Many of the companies with which we compete for management and key technical and sales personnel have greater financial and other resources than we do or are located in geographic areas which may be considered by some to be more desirable places to live. If we are not able to retain any of our key management, technical or sales personnel, it could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

During certain high demand periods, there can be a shortage of skilled production workers, especially those with high-end welding capabilities. We could experience difficulty hiring or replacing those individuals, which could adversely affect our business.

Our fabrication processes require highly skilled production workers, especially welders. Welding has not been an educational field that has been popular over the past few decades as manufacturing has moved overseas. While we have an in-house weld training program, if we are unable to retain, hire or train an adequate number of individuals with high-end welding capability, this could adversely impact our ability to achieve our financial objectives. In addition, if demand for highly skilled production workers were to significantly outstrip supply, wages for these skilled workers could dramatically increase in our and related industries and that could affect our financial performance.

Our acquisition strategy may not be successful or may increase business risk.

The success of our acquisition strategy will depend, in part, on our ability to identify suitable companies or businesses to purchase and then successfully negotiate and close acquisition transactions. In addition, our success depends in part on our ability to integrate acquisitions and realize the anticipated benefits from combining the acquisition with our historical business, operations and management. We cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to complete any acquisitions and then successfully integrate the

13

business and operations of those acquisitions without encountering difficulties, including unanticipated costs, issues or liabilities, difficulty in retaining customers and supplier or other relationships, failure to retain key employees, diversion of our management’s attention, failure to integrate information and accounting systems or establish and maintain proper internal control over financial reporting. Moreover, as part of the integration process, we must incorporate an acquisition’s existing business culture and compensation structure with our existing business. We also need to utilize key personnel who may be distracted from the core business. If we are not able to efficiently integrate an acquisition’s business and operations into our organization in a timely and efficient manner, or at all, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition may not be realized, or it may take longer to realize these benefits than we currently expect, either of which could have a material adverse affect on our business or results of operations.

Should a portion of our current intangible assets or intangible assets that we might acquire through future M&A activity be impaired, results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Our balance sheet currently includes intangible assets, including goodwill and other separately identifiable intangible assets, primarily as a result of our acquisition of Energy Steel which make up 4% of the assets of the company. The value of our intangible assets may increase further, in the future, if we complete additional acquisitions as part of our overall business strategy. We are required to review our intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if certain indicators of permanent impairment arise. Factors that could indicate that our intangible assets are impaired could include, among other things, a decline in our stock price and market capitalization, lower than projected operating results and cash flows, and slower than expected growth rates in our markets. If a portion of our intangible assets becomes impaired as a result of such a review, the impaired portion of such assets would have to be written-off during that period. Such a write-off could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

If we become subject to product liability, warranty or other claims, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

The manufacture and sale of our products exposes us to potential product liability claims, including those that may arise from failure to meet product specifications, misuse or malfunction of our products, design flaws in our products, or use of our products with systems not manufactured or sold by us. For example, our equipment is installed in facilities that operate dangerous processes and the misapplication, improper installation or failure of our equipment may result in exposure to potentially hazardous substances, personal injury or property damage.

Provisions contained in our contracts with customers that attempt to limit our damages may not be enforceable or may fail to protect us from liability for damages and we may not negotiate such contractual limitations of liability in certain circumstances. Our insurance may not cover all liabilities and our historical experience may not reflect liabilities we may face in the future. Our risk of liability may increase as we manufacture more complex or larger projects. We also may not be able to continue to maintain such insurance at a reasonable cost or on reasonable terms, or at all. Any material liability not covered by provisions in our contracts or by insurance could have a material adverse affect on our business and financial condition.

Furthermore, if a customer suffers damage as a result of an event related to one of our products, even if we are not at fault, they may reduce their business with us. We may also incur significant warranty claims, which are not covered by insurance. In the event a customer ceases doing business with us as a result of a product malfunction or defect, perceived or actual, or if we incur significant warranty costs in the future, there could be a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

If third parties infringe upon our intellectual property or if we were to infringe upon the intellectual property of third parties, we may expend significant resources enforcing or defending our rights or suffer competitive injury.

Our success depends in part on our proprietary technology. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret laws and confidentiality provisions to establish and protect our proprietary rights. If we fail to successfully enforce our intellectual property rights, our competitive position could suffer. We may also be required to spend significant resources to monitor and police our intellectual property rights. Similarly, if we were found to have infringed upon the intellectual property rights of others, our competitive position could suffer. Furthermore, other companies may develop technologies that are similar or superior to our technologies, duplicate or reverse engineer our technologies or design around our proprietary technologies. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

In some instances, litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights and protect our proprietary information, or to defend against claims by third parties that our products infringe upon their intellectual property rights. Any litigation or claims brought by or against us, whether with or without merit, could result in substantial costs to us and divert the attention of our management, which could materially harm our business and results of operations. In addition, any intellectual property litigation or claims against us could result in the loss or compromise of our intellectual property and proprietary rights, subject us to significant liabilities, require us to seek licenses on unfavorable terms, prevent us from manufacturing or selling certain

14

products or require us to redesign certain products, any of which could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

We are subject to foreign currency fluctuations which may adversely affect our operating results.

We are exposed to the risk of currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the currencies of the countries in which we sell our products to the extent that such sales are not based on U.S. dollars. Currency movements can affect sales in several ways, the foremost being our ability to compete for orders against foreign competitors that base their prices on relatively weaker currencies. Strength of the U.S. dollar compared with the Euro or Asian currencies may put us in a less competitive position. Business lost due to competition for orders against competitors using a relatively weaker currency cannot be quantified. In addition, cash can be adversely impacted by the conversion of sales made by us in a foreign currency to U.S. dollars. While we may enter into currency exchange rate hedges from time to time to mitigate these types of fluctuations, we cannot remove all fluctuations or hedge all exposures and our earnings are impacted by changes in currency exchange rates. In addition, if the counter-parties to such exchange contracts do not fulfill their obligations to deliver the contractual foreign currencies, we could be at risk for fluctuations, if any, required to settle the obligation. Any of the foregoing could adversely affect our business and results of operations. At March 31, 2018, we held no forward foreign currency exchange contracts.

Security threats and other sophisticated computer intrusions could harm our information systems, which in turn could harm our business and financial results.

We utilize information systems and computer technology throughout our business. We store sensitive data, proprietary information and perform engineering designs and calculations on these systems. Threats to these systems, and the laws and regulations governing security of data, including personal data, on information systems and otherwise held by companies is evolving and adding layers of complexity in the form of new requirements and increasing costs of attempting to protect information systems and data and complying with new cybersecurity regulations. Information systems are subject to numerous and evolving cybersecurity threats and sophisticated computer crimes, which pose a risk to the stability and security of our information systems, computer technology, and business. Global cybersecurity threats can range from uncoordinated individual attempts to gain unauthorized access to our information systems and computer technology to sophisticated and targeted measures known as advanced persistent threats. The techniques used in these attacks change frequently and may be difficult to detect for periods of time and we may face difficulties in anticipating and implementing adequate preventative measures. A failure or breach in security could expose our company as well as our customers and suppliers to risks of misuse of information, compromising confidential information and technology, destruction of data, production disruptions and other business risks which could damage our reputation, competitive position and financial results of our operations. In addition, defending ourselves against these threats may increase costs or slow operational efficiencies of our business. If any of the foregoing were to occur, it could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

We face potential liability from asbestos exposure and similar claims that could result in substantial costs to us as well as divert attention of our management, which could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

We are a defendant in a number of lawsuits alleging illnesses from exposure to asbestos or asbestos-containing products and seeking unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome of these lawsuits or whether we could become subject to any similar, related or additional lawsuits in the future. In addition, because some of our products are used in systems that handle toxic or hazardous substances, any failure or alleged failure of our products in the future could result in litigation against us. For example, a claim could be made under various regulations for the adverse consequences of environmental contamination. Any litigation brought against us, whether with or without merit, could result in substantial costs to us as well as divert the attention of our management, which could have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

Many of our large international customers are nationalized or state-owned businesses. Any failure to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act could adversely impact our competitive position and subject us to penalties and other adverse consequences, which could harm our business and results of operations.

We are subject to the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which generally prohibits U.S. companies from engaging in bribery or making other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Many foreign companies, including some of our competitors, are not subject to these prohibitions. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in certain of the jurisdictions in which we may operate or sell our products. While we strictly prohibit our employees and agents from engaging in such conduct and have established procedures, controls and training to prevent such conduct from occurring, it is possible that our employees or agents will engage in such conduct and that we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are alleged or are found to have engaged in such practices, we could incur significant costs and suffer severe penalties or other consequences that may have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Provisions contained in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could impair or delay stockholders’ ability to change our management and could discourage takeover transactions that some stockholders might consider to be in their best interests.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could impede attempts by our stockholders to remove or replace our management and could discourage others from initiating a potential merger, takeover or other change of control transaction, including a potential transaction at a premium over the market price of our common stock, that our stockholders might consider to be in their best interests. Such provisions include:

| • | We could issue shares of preferred stock with terms adverse to our common stock. Under our certificate of incorporation, our Board of Directors is authorized to issue shares of preferred stock and to determine the rights, preferences and privileges of such shares without obtaining any further approval from the holders of our common stock. We could issue shares of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights that adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock, or that have the affect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company.

| • | Only a minority of our directors may be elected in a given year. Our bylaws provide for a classified Board of Directors, with only approximately one-third of our Board elected each year. This provision makes it more difficult to effect a change of control because at least two annual stockholder meetings are necessary to replace a majority of our directors.

| • | Our bylaws contain advance notice requirements. Our bylaws also provide that any stockholder who wishes to bring business before an annual meeting of our stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors at an annual meeting of our stockholders must deliver advance notice of their proposals to us before the meeting. Such advance notice provisions may have the effect of making it more difficult to introduce business at stockholder meetings or nominate candidates for election as director.

| • | Our certificate of incorporation requires supermajority voting to approve a change of control transaction. Seventy-five percent of our outstanding shares entitled to vote are required to approve any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of our assets and similar transactions if the other party to such transaction owns 5% or more of our shares entitled to vote. In addition, a majority of the shares entitled to vote not owned by such 5% or greater stockholder are also required to approve any such transaction.

| • | Amendments to our certificate of incorporation require supermajority voting. Our certificate of incorporation contains provisions that make its amendment require the affirmative vote of both 75% of our outstanding shares entitled to vote and a majority of the shares entitled to vote not owned by any person who may hold 50% or more of our shares unless the proposed amendment was previously recommended to our stockholders by an affirmative vote of 75% of our Board. This provision makes it more difficult to implement a change to our certificate of incorporation that stockholders might otherwise consider to be in their best interests without approval of our Board.

| • | Amendments to our bylaws require supermajority voting. Although our Board of Directors is permitted to amend our bylaws at any time, our stockholders may only amend our bylaws upon the affirmative vote of both 75% of our outstanding shares entitled to vote and a majority of the shares entitled to vote not owned by any person who owns 50% or more of our shares. This provision makes it more difficult for our stockholders to implement a change they may consider to be in their best interests without approval of our Board.

Subject to the rights of any preferred stock we may then have outstanding, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends as may be declared from time to time by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. Dividends declared per share by our Board of Directors for each of the four quarters of fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017 were $.09. There can be no assurance that we will pay cash dividends in the future period or that the level of cash dividends paid by us will remain constant.

Our senior credit facility contains provisions pertaining to the maintenance of a maximum funded debt to earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, ratio and a minimum level of earnings before interest expense and income taxes to interest ratio as well as restrictions on the payment of dividends to stockholders. The facility limits the payment of dividends to stockholders to 25% of net income if our funded debt to EBITDA ratio is greater than 2.0 to 1. As of March 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018 we did not have any funded debt outstanding. More information regarding our senior credit facility can be found in Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Current Market Conditions

Our global energy and petrochemical markets began to show signs of improvement during the second half of fiscal 2018. The stabilization and subsequent increases in crude oil prices as well as general global economic improvement have led to increased activity by our customers in the downstream energy sector. They have begun to spend on upgrading and turnaround maintenance for existing facilities and are beginning to look at new capacity. While this additional activity is encouraging, it is very recent and we

21

cannot predict the pace at which a recovery will occur. Capital spending in the nuclear market, for both new capacity and to maintain existing facilities, continues to be weak, reportedly down 25% to 35% compared with four or five years ago, as reported by the Nuclear Energy Institute.

Our long-term view for the global energy and petrochemical markets is that general economic fundamentals will drive increasing demand and result in capital investment to satisfy increasing global energy demand. These fundamentals include rising populations, strong emerging market economic growth, and overall global economic expansion.

Our naval nuclear propulsion market has demand tied to aircraft carrier and submarine vessel construction schedules of the primary shipyards who service the U.S. Navy. We expect growth in our naval nuclear propulsion business based on our strategic actions to increase our market share and to satisfy expected demand. For more information, refer to the heading ''Strategy and Outlook'' within this Item 7 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We believe the long-term outlook in our key markets supports our strategy. In the near term, new order levels are expected to remain volatile, resulting in both relatively strong and weak periods.

The chart below shows the impact of our diversification strategy. Over 60% of our backlog at the end of fiscal year 2018 is from markets not served by us in the fiscal 2007-2009 time frame.

Results of Operations

For an understanding of the significant factors that influenced our performance, the following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Fiscal 2018 Compared with Fiscal 2017

Sales for fiscal 2018 were $77,534, down 16% as compared with sales of $91,769 for fiscal 2017. Domestic sales were $51,950 or 67% of total sales, down from $69,166 or 75% of total sales in fiscal 2017. Domestic sales decreased $17,216, or 25%, compared with fiscal year 2017. International sales accounted for $25,584, or 33% of total sales, for fiscal 2018, up from $22,603, or 25% of total sales in fiscal 2017. International sales increased $2,981 or 13%, compared with fiscal 2017. By market, sales for fiscal 2018 were 28% to the refining industry (up from 26% in fiscal 2017), 27% to the chemical and petrochemical industries (up from 23% in fiscal 2017), 14% to the power markets (down from 22% in fiscal 2017), and 31% to defense and other industrial applications (up from 29% in fiscal 2017).

Our gross margin for fiscal 2018 was 22.4% compared with 24.1% for fiscal 2017. The reduction in gross margin was primarily due to a large non-repeatable atypical order which converted in the second half of the fiscal year 2017. Gross profit for fiscal 2018 decreased $4,831, or 22% compared with fiscal 2017 due to lower volume and the fiscal 2017 atypical order noted above.

Selling, general and administrative, or SG&A, expense for fiscal 2018 was $15,646, up 5% or $788, compared with $14,858 in fiscal 2017. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to the benefit of an insurance settlement of $759 which occurred in fiscal 2017. SG&A as a percentage of sales in fiscal 2018 was 20.2% of sales compared with 16.2% of sales in fiscal 2017.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2018, we performed our annual goodwill and intangible asset impairment review. We estimated the fair value of intangible assets and goodwill of our commercial nuclear power business related to the December 2010 acquisition of Energy Steel & Supply Co. (“Energy Steel”). The impairment review indicated that the fair value of the permits, tradename and goodwill of the business were substantially lower than the carrying value due to reduced investment from the U.S. nuclear power market, the strength of the Energy Steel brand relative to larger more vertically integrated suppliers, and the bankruptcy of Westinghouse Electric Company which resulted in the stoppage of work at the Summer, South Carolina nuclear facility. As a result, we recorded impairment losses of $8,600, $500, and $5,716 for permits, tradename, and goodwill, respectively. The total impairment charge was $14,816 before taxes and $12,014 after taxes. Additionally, we incurred a $46 revenue reversal, and a $234 bad debt charge, related to the bankruptcy of Westinghouse Electric Company and the stoppage of work at the Summer, South Carolina nuclear facility. The total before and after tax cost of these two charges was $280 and $193, respectively. Additionally, we recognized a benefit of $786 related to the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities, which were impacted by the reduction in federal income tax rates from the Tax Act. The deferred tax benefit of $786 included $839 of expense for adjusting the rates on the deferred tax liability of the Energy Steel acquisition offset by a benefit of $1,625 for other tax items.

We also incurred a pre-tax restructuring charge of $316 ($224 after tax) for severance costs related to certain headcount reductions in fiscal 2018. In fiscal 2017, we incurred a pre-tax restructuring charge of $630 ($441 after tax) related to certain headcount reductions.

Interest income for fiscal 2018 was $606, up from $386 in fiscal 2017, primarily a result of higher interest rates. Interest expense for fiscal 2018 was $12 compared with $10 in fiscal 2017.

23

Our effective tax rate in fiscal 2018 was 23%. Excluding the impact of the impairment losses we incurred from our commercial nuclear business and the impact of the Tax Act, our effective tax rate in fiscal 2018 was 31%. This compares with an effective tax rate of 29% for fiscal 2017.

Net (loss) and (loss) per diluted share for fiscal 2018, were ($9,844) and ($1.01), respectively, compared with net income and income per diluted share of $5,023 and $0.52, respectively, for fiscal 2017. Excluding the impairment losses we incurred and other charges related to our commercial nuclear power business, the impact of the Tax Act change, as well as restructuring charges, net income and income per diluted share for fiscal 2018 were $1,801 and $0.18, respectively. Net income and income per diluted share for fiscal 2017 were $5,464 and $0.56, respectively, excluding the impact of the restructuring charge described above.

Fiscal 2017 Compared with Fiscal 2016

Sales for fiscal 2017 were $91,769, up $1,730 or 2%, as compared with sales of $90,039 for fiscal 2016. Domestic sales were $69,166 or 75% of total sales, up from $57,027 or 63% of total sales in fiscal 2016. Domestic sales increased $12,139, or 21%, compared with fiscal year 2016. International sales accounted for $22,603, or 25% of total sales, for fiscal 2017, down from $33,012, or 37% of total sales in fiscal 2016. International sales decreased $10,409 or 32%, compared with fiscal 2016, primarily due to lower sales to the refining, chemical and petrochemical industries. By market, sales for fiscal 2017 were 26% to the refining industry (down from 32% in fiscal 2016), 23% to the chemical and petrochemical industries (down from 33% in fiscal 2016), 22% to the power markets (up from 16% in fiscal 2016), and 29% to defense and other industrial applications (up from 19% in fiscal 2016).

Our gross margin for fiscal 2017 was 24.1% compared with 25.8% for fiscal 2016. The reduction in gross margin was primarily due to a very competitive pricing environment for orders received in fiscal 2017 and business mix partially offset by a large atypical order which converted in the second half of fiscal 2017. Gross profit for fiscal 2017 decreased $1,094, or 5% compared with fiscal 2016 due to the same factors which impacted gross margin.

SG&A expense for fiscal 2017 was $14,858, down 10% or $1,707, compared with $16,565 in fiscal 2016. The reduction in SG&A expenses was primarily due to lower sales commissions and cost reduction efforts which occurred in fiscal 2017 as well as the benefit of an insurance settlement of $759. SG&A as a percentage of sales in fiscal 2017 improved to 16.2% of sales compared with 18.4% of sales in fiscal 2016.

In fiscal 2017 we incurred a pre-tax restructuring charge of $630 ($441 after tax) for severance costs related to a reduction in force to align headcount with the business environment. This initiative contributed to cost savings in fiscal 2017.

There was no other income in fiscal 2017. Other income in fiscal 2016 of $1,789 was due to cancellation fees received from customers for two orders which were cancelled in fiscal 2016.

Interest income for fiscal 2017 was $386, up from $261 in fiscal 2016. Interest expense for fiscal 2017 was $10, the same as in fiscal 2016.

Our effective tax rate in fiscal 2017 was 29% compared with an effective tax rate of 30% for fiscal 2016.

Net income and income per diluted share for fiscal 2017, were $5,023 and $0.52, respectively, compared with net income and income per diluted share of $6,131 and $0.61, respectively, for fiscal 2016. Net income and income per diluted share for fiscal 2017 were $5,464 and $0.56, respectively, excluding the impact of a nonrecurring restructuring charge.

Stockholders' Equity

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity that can be found in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following table shows the balance of stockholders' equity on the dates indicated:

March 31, 2018 |  |  | March 31, 2017 |  |  | March 31, 2016 |
$ | 103,349 |  |  | $ | 114,110 |  |  | $ | 109,380 |

Fiscal 2018 Compared with Fiscal 2017

Stockholders' equity decreased $10,761 or 9%, at March 31, 2018 compared with March 31, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to the impairment and other charges related to our commercial nuclear power business and the impact of the Tax Act offset partially by earnings.

24

On March 31, 2018, our net book value per share was $10.58, down from $11.72 at March 31, 2017.

Fiscal 2017 Compared with Fiscal 2016

Stockholders' equity increased $4,730 or 4%, at March 31, 2017 compared with March 31, 2016. The increase was primarily due to earnings.

On March 31, 2017, our net book value per share was $11.72, up 3% over March 31, 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated statements of cash flows and consolidated balance sheets appearing in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K:

|  | March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Cash and investments |  | $ | 76,479 |  |  | $ | 73,474 |
Working capital(1) |  |  | 78,105 |  |  |  | 78,688 |
Working capital ratio(2) |  |  | 3.1 |  |  |  | 3.5 |
Working capital excluding cash and investments |  |  | 1,626 |  |  |  | 5,214 |
Working capital excluding cash and investments as a percent of net sales |  |  | 2.1 | % |  |  | 5.7 | %

(1) Working capital equals current assets minus current liabilities.

(2) Working capital ratio equals current assets divided by current liabilities.

We use the above ratios to assess our liquidity and overall financial strength.

Net cash generated by operating activities for fiscal 2018 was $8,511, compared with $12,389 for fiscal 2017. The decrease in cash generated was due to lower earnings (net of the non-cash items; impairment losses incurred and Tax Act impacts), cash usage from accounts receivable, inventories, customer deposits and income taxes paid, partially offset by changes in unbilled revenue and accounts payable compared with fiscal 2017.

Capital spending in fiscal 2018 was $2,051, compared with $325 in fiscal 2017. Capital expenditures in each of fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017 were approximately 90% for facilities along with machinery and equipment and the remaining 10% for all other items.

Dividend payments were $3,517 in fiscal 2018 compared with $3,492 in fiscal 2017.

Cash and investments were $76,479 at March 31, 2018 compared with $73,474 at March 31, 2017, up $3,005 or 4%.

We invest net cash generated from operations in excess of cash held for near-term needs in short-term, less than 365 days, certificates of deposit, money market accounts or U.S. government instruments, generally with maturity periods of up to 180 days. Our money market account is used to securitize our outstanding letters of credit, which reduces our cost on those letters of credit. Approximately 95% of our cash and investments are held in the U.S. The remaining 5% is invested in our China operations.

Capital expenditures for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2019 (which we refer to as “fiscal 2019”) are expected to be between approximately $2,000 and $2,500. Approximately 75%-80% of our fiscal 2019 capital expenditures are expected to be for machinery and equipment, with the remaining amounts expected to be used for other items.

Our revolving credit facility with JP Morgan Chase provides us with a line of credit of $25,000, including letters of credit and bank guarantees. In addition, our JP Morgan Chase agreement allows us to increase the line of credit, at our discretion, up to another $25,000, for total availability of $50,000. Borrowings under this credit facility are secured by all of our assets. We also have a $5,000 unsecured line of credit with HSBC, N.A. Letters of credit outstanding on March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017 were $8,233 and $8,372, respectively. The outstanding letters of credit as of March 31, 2018 were issued by JP Morgan Chase, HSBC, as well as Bank of America, N.A. (under our previous credit facility). There were no other amounts outstanding on our credit facilities at March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017. The borrowing rate under our JP Morgan Chase facility as of March 31, 2018 was the bank’s prime rate, or 4.75%. Availability under the JP Morgan Chase and HSBC lines of credit was $24,336 and $25,761 at March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017, respectively. We believe that cash generated from operations, combined with our investments and available financing capacity under our credit facility, will be adequate both to meet our cash needs for the immediate future and to support our growth strategies.

(2) Amounts represent anticipated contributions during fiscal 2018 to our postretirement medical benefit plan, which provides healthcare benefits for eligible retirees and eligible survivors of retirees. On February 4, 2003, we terminated postretirement healthcare benefits for our U.S. employees. Benefits payable to retirees of record on April 1, 2003 remained unchanged. We expect to be required to make cash contributions in connection with these plans beyond one year, but such amounts cannot be estimated. No contributions are expected to be made to our defined benefit pension plan for fiscal 2019.

Orders and Backlog

Orders in fiscal 2018 increased 70% to $112,230 from $66,128 in fiscal 2017 (fiscal 2017 orders were net of $6,467 of cancellations). Orders represent communications received from customers requesting us to supply products and services. Revenue is recognized on orders received in accordance with our revenue recognition policy described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements contained in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Domestic orders were 69%, or $77,126, and international orders were 31%, or $35,104, of our total net orders in fiscal 2018. This compared to net domestic orders of $48,927, or 74%, of total net orders, and international orders of $17,201, or 26%, of our total orders in fiscal 2017. Domestic orders increased by $28,199, or 58% as a result of stronger orders for the U.S. Navy business and increased demand in the refining and petrochemical processing industries. Net international orders increased by $17,903, or 104%, primarily due to one large refining order.

Backlog was $117,946 at March 31, 2018, up 43% compared with $82,590 at March 31, 2017. Backlog is defined by us as the total dollar value of orders received for which revenue has not yet been recognized. All orders in backlog represent orders from our traditional markets in established product lines. Approximately 55% to 60% of orders currently in our backlog are expected to be converted to sales within one year. At March 31, 2018, approximately 30% of our backlog was attributed to equipment for refinery project work, 5% for chemical and petrochemical projects, 5% for power, including nuclear energy, 56% for U.S. Navy projects and 4% for other industrial or commercial applications. At March 31, 2017, approximately 16% of our backlog was attributed to equipment for refinery project work, 12% for chemical and petrochemical projects, 8% for power, including nuclear energy, 61% for U.S. Navy projects and 3% for other industrial or commercial applications. At March 31, 2018, we had no projects on hold.

Outlook

The energy markets began to see an improvement in capital spending during the second half of fiscal 2018. Orders for customers in the refining market were much stronger in the second half of fiscal 2018 than the previous six quarters. Orders in the chemical and petrochemical market did not exhibit the same increase as the refining market. Although orders in the commercial nuclear market improved in the last six months of fiscal 2018, they remain weak. At March 31, 2018, 56% of our backlog was for the U.S. Navy. Approximately one quarter of our long-lived U.S. Navy backlog is expected to begin to convert into revenue in fiscal 2019, nevertheless we expect to see significant growth compared with fiscal 2018. Our pipeline remains active, but somewhat unpredictable on a quarterly basis as our oil refining and chemical market customers continue to be cautious with moving projects forward.

We continue to believe in the long-term strength of the energy and petrochemical markets. Coupled with our diversification strategy with the U.S. Navy and the power market, we believe this long-term strength will support our strategy to significantly grow our business when the energy and petrochemical markets recover. We have invested in capacity to serve our commercial customers as well as to expand the work we do for the U.S. Navy. We intend to continue to look for organic growth opportunities as well as

26

acquisitions or other business combinations that we believe will allow us to expand our presence in both our existing and ancillary markets. We are focused on reducing earnings volatility, growing our business and diversifying our business and product lines.

We expect revenue in fiscal 2019 to be approximately $90,000 to $95,000. We project that approximately 55% to 60% of our March 31, 2018 backlog will convert to sales in fiscal 2019. We expect the remaining backlog will convert beyond fiscal 2019, which includes a combination of U.S. Navy orders that have a long conversion cycle (up to five years) as well as certain commercial orders, the conversion of which has been extended by our customers.

We expect gross profit margin in fiscal 2019 to be in the 24% to 25% range, compared with 22% in fiscal 2018. SG&A during fiscal 2019 is expected to be between $18,000 and $18,750. Our effective tax rate during fiscal 2019 is expected to be between 20% and 22%.

We expect that cash flow in fiscal 2019 will continue to be moderate. We continue to believe that the long-term outlook for the energy and petrochemical markets is good and expect we will have more clarity on the strength of the potential recovery as we work through fiscal 2019.

Contingencies and Commitments

We have been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos allegedly contained in, or accompanying, our products. We are a co-defendant with numerous other defendants in these lawsuits and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against these claims. The claims are similar to previous asbestos lawsuits that named us as a defendant. Such previous lawsuits either were dismissed when it was shown that we had not supplied products to the plaintiffs’ places of work or were settled by us for immaterial amounts. We cannot provide any assurances that any pending or future matters will be resolved in the same manner as previous lawsuits.

As of March 31, 2018, we are subject to the claims noted above, as well as other legal proceedings and potential claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of the lawsuits to which we are, or may become, a party to cannot be determined and an estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss cannot be made, we do not believe that the outcomes, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material affect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements and the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S.

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that reflect significant judgments and uncertainties and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions.

Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue on all contracts with a planned manufacturing process in excess of four weeks (which approximates 575 direct labor hours) using the percentage-of-completion method. The majority of our revenue is recognized under this methodology. The percentage-of-completion method is determined by comparing actual labor incurred as of a specific date to our estimate of the total labor to be incurred on each contract or completion of operational milestones assigned to each contract. Contracts in progress are reviewed monthly, and sales and earnings are adjusted in current accounting periods based on revisions in the contract value and estimated material and labor costs at completion. Losses on contracts are recognized immediately, when evident to management.

Revenue on contracts not accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method is recognized utilizing the completed contract method. The majority of the contracts we enter into have a planned manufacturing process of less than four weeks and the results reported under this method do not vary materially from the percentage-of-completion method. We recognize revenue and all related costs on the completed contract method upon substantial completion or shipment of products to the customer. Substantial completion is consistently defined as at least 95% complete with regard to direct labor hours. Customer acceptance is required throughout the construction process and we have no further material obligations under the contracts after the revenue is recognized.

Valuation of Goodwill and Intangible Assets. Definite lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are assessed for impairment if certain indicators are present. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized but are subject to impairment testing annually or earlier if an event or change in circumstances indicates that the fair value of a reporting unit may have been reduced below its carrying value. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss, limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit, is recorded. Fair values for reporting

27

units are determined based on discounted cash flows. Indefinite lived intangible assets are assessed for impairment by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying value.

Pension and Postretirement Benefits. Defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit costs and obligations are dependent on actuarial assumptions used in calculating such amounts. These assumptions are reviewed annually and include the discount rate, long-term expected rate of return on plan assets, salary growth, healthcare cost trend rate and other economic and demographic factors. We base the discount rate assumption for our plans on Moody's or Citigroup Pension Liability Index AA-rated corporate long-term bond yield rate. The long-term expected rate of return on plan assets is based on the plan’s asset allocation, historical returns and expectations as to future returns that are expected to be realized over the estimated remaining life of the plan liabilities that will be funded with the plan assets. The salary growth assumptions are determined based on long-term actual experience and future and near-term outlook. The healthcare cost trend rate assumptions are based on historical cost and payment data, the near-term outlook, and an assessment of likely long-term trends.

Income Taxes. We use the liability method to account for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the tax effects of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of liabilities and assets measured using the enacted tax rate.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using current tax rates. We evaluate available information about future taxable income and other possible sources of realization of deferred income tax assets and record valuation allowances to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount that represents our best estimates of the amounts of such deferred income tax assets that more likely than not will be realized.

The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. Significant judgment is required in evaluating our tax positions and determining our provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. We establish reserves for uncertain tax positions when we believe that certain tax positions do not meet the more likely than not threshold. We adjust these reserves in light of changing facts and circumstances, such as the outcome of a tax audit or the lapse of the statute of limitations. The provision for income taxes includes the impact of reserve provisions and changes to the reserves that are considered appropriate.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

We have evaluated the accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and believe those policies to be reasonable and appropriate.

We believe that the most critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements relate to labor hour estimates and establishment of operational milestones which are used to recognize revenue under the percentage-of-completion method, fair value estimates of goodwill and identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired in business combinations, accounting for contingencies, under which we accrue a loss when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated, and accounting for pensions and other postretirement benefits.

As discussed above under the heading "Critical Accounting Policies," we recognize a majority of our revenue using the percentage-of-completion method. The key estimate of percentage-of-completion accounting is total labor to be incurred on each contract and to the extent that this estimate changes, it may significantly impact revenue recognized in each period.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested annually for impairment. We assess goodwill for impairment by comparing the fair value of its reporting units to their carrying amounts. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss, limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit, is recorded. Fair values for reporting units are determined based on discounted cash flows. Indefinite lived intangible assets are assessed for impairment by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying value.

Contingencies, by their nature, relate to uncertainties that require us to exercise judgment both in assessing the likelihood that a liability has been incurred as well as in estimating the amount of potential loss. For more information on these matters see the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Accounting for pensions and other postretirement benefits involves estimating the cost of benefits to be provided well into the future and attributing that cost over the time period each employee works. To accomplish this, extensive use is made of

28

assumptions about inflation, investment returns, mortality, turnover, medical costs and discount rates. These assumptions are reviewed annually.

The discount rate used in accounting for pensions and other postretirement benefits expense (income) is determined in conjunction with our actuary by reference to a current yield curve and by considering the timing and amount of projected future benefit payments. The discount rate assumption for fiscal 2018 was 4.08% for our defined benefit pension plan and 3.23% for our other postretirement benefit plan. A reduction in the discount rate of 50 basis points, with all other assumptions held constant, would have increased fiscal 2018 net periodic benefit expense for our defined benefit pension plan and other postretirement benefit plan by approximately $287 and $0, respectively.

The expected return on plan assets assumption of 8.0% used in accounting for our pension plan is determined by evaluating the mix of investments that comprise plan assets and external forecasts of future long-term investment returns. A reduction in the rate of return of 50 basis points, with other assumptions held constant, would have increased fiscal 2018 net periodic pension expense by approximately $186.

During fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, the pension plan released liabilities for vested benefits of certain participants through the purchase of nonparticipating annuity contracts with a third-party insurance company. As a result of these transactions, in fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, the projected benefit obligation decreased $890 and $1,118, respectively, and the plan assets decreased $998 and $1,246, respectively.

As part of our ongoing financial reporting process, a collaborative effort is undertaken involving our managers with functional responsibilities for financial, credit, tax, engineering, manufacturing and benefit matters, and outside advisors such as lawyers, consultants and actuaries. We believe that the results of this effort provide management with the necessary information on which to base their judgments and to develop the estimates and assumptions used to prepare the financial statements.

We believe that the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K related to revenue, contingencies, pensions, other postretirement benefits and other matters requiring the use of estimates and judgments are reasonable, although actual outcomes could differ materially from our estimates.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In the normal course of business, management evaluates all new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC, the Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or any other authoritative accounting body to determine the potential impact they may have on our consolidated financial statements. For discussion of the newly issued accounting pronouncements see ''Accounting and reporting changes'' in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2018 or March 31, 2017, other than operating leases and letters of credit incurred in the ordinary course of business.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The principal market risks (i.e., the risk of loss arising from market changes) to which we are exposed are foreign currency exchange rates, price risk and project cancellation risk.

The assumptions applied in preparing the following qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding foreign currency exchange rate, price risk and project cancellation risk are based upon volatility ranges experienced by us in relevant historical periods, our current knowledge of the marketplace, and our judgment of the probability of future volatility based upon the historical trends and economic conditions of the markets in which we operate.

Foreign Currency

International consolidated sales for fiscal 2018 were 33% of total sales, up from 25% of sales in fiscal 2017. Operating in markets throughout the world exposes us to movements in currency exchange rates. Currency movements can affect sales in several ways, the foremost being our ability to compete for orders against foreign competitors that base their prices on relatively weaker currencies. Business lost due to competition for orders against competitors using a relatively weaker currency cannot be quantified. In addition, cash can be adversely impacted by the conversion of sales made by us in a foreign currency to U.S. dollars. In fiscal

29

2017, sales in foreign currencies represented 1% of total sales by us and our subsidiaries. In each of fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2016, substantially all sales for which we or our subsidiaries were paid were denominated in the local currency (U.S. dollars or Chinese RMB).

We have limited exposure to foreign currency purchases. In fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, our purchases in foreign currencies represented 1%, 3% and 1%, respectively, of the cost of products sold. At certain times, we may enter into forward foreign currency exchange agreements to hedge our exposure against potential unfavorable changes in foreign currency values on significant sales and purchase contracts negotiated in foreign currencies. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts were not used in fiscal 2018 or fiscal 2017, and as of March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, we held no forward foreign currency contracts.

Price Risk

Operating in a global marketplace requires us to compete with other global manufacturers which, in some instances, benefit from lower production costs and more favorable economic conditions. Although we believe that our customers differentiate our products on the basis of our manufacturing quality and engineering experience and excellence, among other things, such lower production costs and more favorable economic conditions mean that certain of our competitors are able to offer products similar to ours at lower prices. In extreme market downturns, such as we recently experienced, we typically see depressed price levels. Moreover, the cost of metals and other materials used in our products have experienced significant volatility. Such factors, in addition to the global effects of the recent volatility and disruption of the capital and credit markets, have resulted in downward demand and pricing pressure on our products.

Project Cancellation and Project Continuation Risk

Adverse economic or specific project conditions can lead to a project being placed on hold or cancelled by our customers. In fiscal 2018, we had no projects cancelled. In fiscal 2017, we had two projects totaling $6,467, that were cancelled. At March 31, 2018, we had no projects on hold. We attempt to mitigate the risk of cancellation by structuring contracts with our customers to maximize the likelihood that progress payments made to us for individual projects cover the costs we have incurred. As a result, we do not believe we have a significant cash exposure to projects which may be cancelled.

Open orders are reviewed continuously through communications with customers. If it becomes evident to us that a project is delayed well beyond its original shipment date, management will move the project into "placed on hold" (i.e., suspended) category. Furthermore, if a project is cancelled by our customer, it is removed from our backlog.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years Ended March 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016

(Amounts in thousands, except per share data)

Note 1 - The Company and Its Accounting Policies:

Graham Corporation, and its operating subsidiaries, (together, the "Company"), is a global designer, manufacturer and supplier of vacuum and heat transfer equipment used in the chemical, petrochemical, petroleum refining, and electric power generating industries. Energy Steel & Supply Co. ("Energy Steel"), a wholly-owned subsidiary, is a nuclear code accredited fabrication and specialty machining company which provides products to the nuclear industry. The Company's significant accounting policies are set forth below.

The Company's fiscal years ended March 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 are referred to as fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively.

Principles of consolidation and use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Energy Steel, located in Lapeer, Michigan, and Graham Vacuum and Heat Transfer Technology (Suzhou) Co., Ltd., located in China. All intercompany balances, transactions and profits are eliminated in consolidation.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the related revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from those estimated.

Translation of foreign currencies

Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at currency exchange rates in effect at year-end and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect for the year. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations. The Company's sales and purchases in foreign currencies are minimal. Therefore, foreign currency transaction gains and losses are not significant. Gains and losses resulting from translation of foreign subsidiary balance sheets are included in a separate component of stockholders' equity. Translation adjustments are not adjusted for income taxes since they relate to an investment, which is permanent in nature.

Revenue recognition

Percentage-of-Completion Method

The Company recognizes revenue on all contracts with a planned manufacturing process in excess of four weeks (which approximates 575 direct labor hours) using the percentage-of-completion method. The majority of the Company's revenue is recognized under this methodology. The Company has established the systems and procedures essential to developing the estimates required to account for contracts using the percentage-of-completion method. The percentage-of-completion method is determined by comparing actual labor incurred to a specific date to management's estimate of the total labor to be incurred on each contract or completion of operational milestones assigned to each contract.

Contracts in progress are reviewed monthly by management, and sales and earnings are adjusted in current accounting periods based on revisions in the contract value and estimated costs at completion. Losses on contracts are recognized immediately when evident to management. Revenue recognized on contracts accounted for utilizing percentage-of-completion are presented in net sales in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and unbilled revenue in the Consolidated Balance Sheets to the extent that the revenue recognized exceeds the amounts billed to customers. See "Inventories" below.

Receivables billed but not paid under retainage provisions in its customer contracts were $1,124 and $971 at March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Completed Contract Method

Revenue on contracts not accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method is recognized utilizing the completed contract method. The majority of the Company's contracts (as opposed to revenue) have a planned manufacturing process of less than four weeks and the results reported under this method do not vary materially from the percentage-of-completion method. The

37

Company recognizes revenue and all related costs on these contracts upon substantial completion or shipment to the customer. Substantial completion is consistently defined as at least 95% complete with regard to direct labor hours. Customer acceptance is generally required throughout the construction process and the Company has no further material obligations under its contracts after the revenue is recognized.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid, short-term investments with maturities at the time of purchase of three months or less.

Shipping and handling fees and costs

Shipping and handling fees billed to the customer are recorded in net sales and the related costs incurred for shipping and handling are included in cost of products sold.

Investments

Investments consist of certificates of deposits with financial institutions. All investments have original maturities of greater than three months and less than one year and are classified as held-to-maturity, as the Company believes it has the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. The investments are stated at amortized cost which approximates fair value. All investments held by the Company at March 31, 2018 are scheduled to mature on or before July 18, 2018.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, using the average cost method. Unbilled revenue in the Consolidated Balance Sheets represents revenue recognized that has not been billed to customers on contracts accounted for on the percentage-of-completion method. For contracts accounted for on the percentage-of-completion method, progress payments are netted against unbilled revenue to the extent the payment is less than the unbilled revenue for the applicable contract. Progress payments exceeding unbilled revenue are netted against inventory to the extent the payment is less than or equal to the inventory balance relating to the applicable contract, and the excess is presented as customer deposits in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

A summary of costs and estimated earnings on contracts in progress at March 31, 2018 and 2017 is as follows:

|  | March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Costs incurred since inception on contracts in progress |  | $ | 43,806 |  |  | $ | 44,263 |
Estimated earnings since inception on contracts in progress |  |  | 8,123 |  |  |  | 4,348 |
|  |  | 51,929 |  |  |  | 48,611 |
Less billings to date |  |  | 67,172 |  |  |  | 52,410 |
Net under (over) billings |  | $ | (15,243 | ) |  | $ | (3,799 | )

The above activity is included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets under the following captions at March 31, 2018 and 2017 or Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements:

|  | March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Unbilled revenue |  | $ | 8,079 |  |  | $ | 15,842 |
Progress payments reducing inventory (Note 2) |  |  | (10,109 | ) |  |  | (7,234 | )

Net under (over) billings |  | $ | (15,243 | ) |  | $ | (3,799 | )

Property, plant, equipment, depreciation and amortization

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Major additions and improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are provided based upon the estimated useful lives, or lease term if shorter, under the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range from approximately five to eight years for office equipment, eight to 25 years for manufacturing equipment and 40 years for buildings and improvements. Upon sale or retirement of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations.

38

Business combinations

The Company records its business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the Company allocates the purchase price of each acquisition to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is based upon detailed valuations that use various assumptions made by management. Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired is allocated to goodwill. Direct acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

Intangible assets

Acquired intangible assets other than goodwill consist of permits, customer relationships, and tradenames. The Company amortizes its definite-lived intangible assets on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life is fifteen years for customer relationships. All other intangibles have indefinite lives and are not amortized.

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company assesses the impairment of definite-lived long-lived assets or asset groups when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors that are considered in deciding when to perform an impairment review include: a significant decrease in the market price of the asset or asset group; a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset or asset group is being used or in its physical condition; an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction; a current-period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset or asset group; or a current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset or asset group will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. The term more likely than not refers to a level of likelihood that is more than 50%.

Recoverability potential is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the asset or asset group to its related total future undiscounted cash flows. If the carrying value is not recoverable through related cash flows, the asset or asset group is considered to be impaired. Impairment is measured by comparing the asset or asset group's carrying amount to its fair value. When it is determined that useful lives of assets are shorter than originally estimated, and no impairment is present, the rate of depreciation is accelerated in order to fully depreciate the assets over their new shorter useful lives.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested annually for impairment as of December 31. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment by comparing the fair value of its reporting units to their carrying amounts. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the implied fair value of the goodwill within the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Fair values for reporting units are determined based on discounted cash flows. Indefinite lived intangible assets are assessed for impairment by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying value.

Product warranties

The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its product warranties and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time revenue is recognized. The reserve for product warranties is based upon past claims experience and ongoing evaluations of any specific probable claims from customers. A reconciliation of the changes in the product warranty liability is presented in Note 5.

Research and development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred research and development costs of $3,211, $3,863 and $3,746 in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively. Research and development costs are included in the line item “Cost of products sold” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Income taxes

The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using currently enacted tax rates. The Company evaluates the available evidence about future taxable income and other possible sources of realization of deferred income tax assets and records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount that represents the Company's best estimate of the amount of such deferred income tax assets that more likely than not will be realized.

39

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions using a "more likely than not" recognition threshold. The evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in tax law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective resolution of matters subject to audit, new audit activity and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position. These tax positions are evaluated on a quarterly basis. It is the Company's policy to recognize any interest related to uncertain tax positions in interest expense and any penalties related to uncertain tax positions in selling, general and administrative expense.

The Company files federal and state income tax returns in several U.S. and non-U.S. domestic and foreign jurisdictions. In most tax jurisdictions, returns are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities for a number of years after the returns have been filed.

Stock-based compensation

The Company records compensation costs related to stock-based awards based on the estimated fair value of the award on the grant date. Compensation cost is recognized in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations over the applicable vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model as the method for determining the fair value of its stock option awards. For service and performance based restricted stock awards, the fair market value of the award is determined based upon the closing value of the Company's stock price on the grant date. The fair market value of market-based performance restricted stock awards is determined using the Monte Carlo valuation model. The amount of stock-based compensation expense recognized during a period is based on the portion of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate at the grant date by analyzing historical data and revises the estimates in subsequent periods if the actual forfeiture rate differs from the estimates.

(Loss) income per share data

Basic (loss) income per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted (loss) income per share is calculated by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and, when applicable, potential common shares outstanding during the period.

A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of basic and diluted (loss) income per share is presented below:

|  | Year ended March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |  |  | 2016 |
Basic (loss) income per share: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Net (loss) income |  | $ | (9,844 | ) |  | $ | 5,023 |  |  | $ | 6,131 |
Denominator: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Weighted common shares outstanding |  |  | 9,764 |  |  |  | 9,716 |  |  |  | 9,976 |
Basic (loss) income per share |  | $ | (1.01 | ) |  | $ | 0.52 |  |  | $ | 0.61 |
Diluted (loss) income per share: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Numerator: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Net (loss) income |  | $ | (9,844 | ) |  | $ | 5,023 |  |  | $ | 6,131 |
Denominator: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Weighted average common shares and SEUs outstanding |  |  | 9,764 |  |  |  | 9,716 |  |  |  | 9,976 |
Stock options outstanding |  |  | — |  |  |  | 12 |  |  |  | 7 |
Weighted average common and potential common shares outstanding |  |  | 9,764 |  |  |  | 9,728 |  |  |  | 9,983 |
Diluted (loss) income per share |  | $ | (1.01 | ) |  | $ | 0.52 |  |  | $ | 0.61 |

None of the options to purchase shares of common stock which totaled 69 were included in the computation of diluted loss per share in fiscal 2018 as the affect would be anti-dilutive due to the net loss in the fiscal year. There were 11 and 54 options to purchase shares of common stock at various exercise prices in fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively, which were not included in the computation of diluted income per share as the affect would be anti-dilutive given their exercise prices.

Cash flow statement

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

40

Interest paid was $12 in fiscal 2018, $10 in fiscal 2017, and $10 in fiscal 2016. In addition, income taxes paid were $1,916 in fiscal 2018, $951 in fiscal 2017 and $5,423 in fiscal 2016.

In fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, non-cash activities included pension and other postretirement benefit adjustments, net of income tax, of $(1,668), $(2,493) and $1,470, respectively. In fiscal 2018, non-cash activities included the reclassification of $1,828 from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). Also, in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, non-cash activities included the issuance of treasury stock valued at $130, $241 and $255, respectively, to the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan (See Note 11).

At March 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, there were $0, $4, and $53, respectively, of capital purchases that were recorded in accounts payable and are not included in the caption "Purchase of property, plant and equipment" in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, capital expenditures totaling $0, $95 and $126, respectively, were financed through the issuance of capital leases.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss

Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and other comprehensive income or loss items, which are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. For the Company, other comprehensive income or loss items include a foreign currency translation adjustment and pension and other postretirement benefit adjustments.

Fair value measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. the "exit price") in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting standard for fair value establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company's assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows:

Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does not entail a significant degree of judgment.

Level 2 – Valuations determined from quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical instruments in markets that are not active or by model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable in the market.

Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The availability of observable inputs can vary and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, the type of asset/liability, whether the asset/liability is established in the marketplace, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, assumptions are required to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Accounting and reporting changes

In the normal course of business, management evaluates all new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or any other authoritative accounting body to determine the potential impact they may have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This guidance establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a company’s contracts with customers. The guidance requires companies to apply a five-step model when recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The guidance also includes a comprehensive set of disclosure requirements regarding revenue recognition. The guidance allows two methods of adoption: (1) a full retrospective approach where historical financial information is presented in accordance with the new standard and (2) a modified retrospective approach where the guidance is applied to the most current period presented in the financial statements. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No 2015-14 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date," which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with earlier application permitted as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)," to clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing," which clarifies the identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation guidance. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients," which clarifies the implementation guidance related to collectability, presentation of sales tax, noncash consideration, contract modifications and completed contracts at transition.

The Company will adopt these standards using the modified retrospective approach on April 1, 2018. The Company developed a project plan, completed the review of its customer contracts and has evaluated the impact of the guidance on its revenue. The Company believes that the most significant impact of adopting the guidance is the timing of revenue recognition. The Company believes that revenue on the majority of its contracts will continue to be recognized upon shipment while revenue on its larger contracts will be recognized over time as these contracts meet specific criteria established in the new standards. The Company will utilize an input method based upon direct labor hours incurred or an output method based upon completion of operational milestones, depending upon the nature of the contract, to measure progress towards completion on contracts for which revenue is recognized over time. On April 1, 2018 the Company will recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the amended guidance as a decrease of approximately $1,000 to the opening balance of retained earnings, due primarily to a delay in recognizing $5,000 of net sales. The Company does not expect that the ongoing impact to net sales and net income will be material to the Consolidated Statement of Operations, however, the future impact of the amended guidance is dependent upon the mix and nature of specific customer contracts. Under the existing guidance, progress payments exceeding unbilled revenue are netted against inventory to the extent the payment is less than or equal to the inventory balance relating to the applicable contract and the excess is presented as customer deposits, however, upon adoption of the amended guidance all progress payments exceeding unbilled revenue will be presented as customer deposits. The Company continues to implement changes to its business processes and controls to support the recognition and disclosure requirements under the new guidance.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, "Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory," which simplifies the subsequent measurement of inventory by requiring inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. This ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the new guidance in fiscal 2018. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)," which requires companies to recognize all leases as assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. This ASU retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases, and the classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the current accounting guidance. As a result, the effect of leases on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and the consolidated statement of cash flows is largely unchanged from previous generally accepted accounting principles. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted. The Company believes the adoption of this ASU may have a material impact on its assets and liabilities due to the addition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities to its Consolidated Balance Sheet, however, it does not expect the guidance to have a material impact on its Consolidated Statement of Operations or Cash Flows.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." ASU 2016-09 changes how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payment awards to employees, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory tax withholding requirements, as

42

well as classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted the new guidance in fiscal 2018. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)," which clarifies the presentation and classification of eight specific issues on the cash flow statement. This ASU is effective for public businesses for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material affect on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, "Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715)," which amended its guidance related to the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. The amended guidance requires the service cost component be disaggregated from the other components of net benefit cost. The service cost component of expense is required to be reported in the income statement in the same line item as other compensation costs within income from operations. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented separately from the service cost component outside of income from operations. This ASU is effective for public businesses for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, "Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income," which allows for the reclassification of certain income tax effects related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act") between accumulated other comprehensive loss and retained earnings. The amendments eliminate the stranded tax effects that were created as a result of the reduction of the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of this ASU is to be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the change in the tax laws or rates were recognized. The Company elected to early adopt this ASU in fiscal 2018 and as a result reclassified $1,828 from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Management does not expect any other recently issued accounting pronouncements, which have not already been adopted, to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

|  | $ | 12,800 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 12,800 |

Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Intangible amortization expense was $180 in each of fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016. As of March 31, 2018, amortization expense is estimated to be $180 in each of the fiscal years ending March 31, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company performed its annual goodwill and intangible asset impairment review. The Company assesses impairment by comparing the fair value of its reporting units and intangible assets to their related carrying value. The Company estimated the fair value of intangible assets and goodwill of its commercial nuclear power business related to the December 2010 acquisition of Energy Steel using the income approach. Under the income approach, the fair value of the business is calculated based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. Cash flow projections are based on management’s estimates of revenue growth rates and operating margins, taking into consideration industry and market conditions. The discount rate used is based on a weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with the characteristics of the business and the projected cash flows. The inputs utilized in the analyses are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. The impairment review indicated that the fair value of the permits, tradename and goodwill of the business were substantially lower than the carrying value due to reduced investment from the U.S. nuclear power market, the strength of the Energy Steel brand relative to larger more vertically integrated suppliers, and the bankruptcy of Westinghouse Electric Company which resulted in the stoppage of work at the Summer, South Carolina nuclear facility. As a result, in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 the Company recorded impairment losses of $8,600, $500, and $5,716 for permits, tradename and goodwill, respectively. Goodwill was $1,222 and $6,938 at March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Note 7 - Debt:

Short-Term Debt

The Company and its subsidiaries had no short-term borrowings outstanding at March 31, 2018 and 2017.

On December 2, 2015, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. that provides a $25,000 line of credit, including letters of credit and bank guarantees, expandable at the Company’s option at any time up to $50,000. The agreement has a five-year term.

At the Company's option, amounts outstanding under the agreement will bear interest at either: (i) a rate equal to the bank's prime rate; or (ii) a rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin. The margin is based on the Company's funded debt to earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and may range from 1.75% to 0.95%. Amounts available for borrowing under the agreement are subject to an unused commitment fee of between 0.30% and 0.20%, depending on the above ratio. The bank’s prime rate was 4.75% and 4.00% at March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Outstanding letters of credit under the agreement are subject to a fee of between 1.20% and 0.70%, depending on the Company's ratio of funded debt to EBITDA. The agreement allows the Company to reduce the fee on outstanding letters of credit to a fixed rate of 0.40% by securing outstanding letters of credit with cash and cash equivalents. At March 31, 2018, all outstanding letters of credit were secured by cash and cash equivalents. At March 31, 2018, there were $4,669 letters of credit outstanding on the JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. revolving credit facility and $2,569 with Bank of America, N.A. Availability under the line of credit was $20,331 at March 31, 2018.

Under the revolving credit facility, the Company covenants to maintain a maximum funded debt to EBITDA ratio, as defined in such credit facility, of 3.5 to 1.0 and a minimum earnings before interest expense and income taxes ("EBIT") to interest ratio, as defined in such credit facility, of 4.0 to 1.0. The agreement also provides that the Company is permitted to pay dividends without limitation if it maintains a maximum funded debt to EBITDA ratio equal to or less than 2.0 to 1.0 and permits the Company to pay dividends in an amount equal to 25% of net income if it maintains a funded debt to EBITDA ratio of greater than 2.0 to 1.0. The

45

Company was in compliance with all such provisions as of and for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. Assets with a book value of $122,122 have been pledged to secure borrowings under the credit facility.

On March 24, 2014, the Company entered into a letter of credit facility agreement to further support its international operations. The agreement provides a $5,000 line of credit to be used for the issuance of letters of credit. Under the agreement, the Company incurs an annual facility fee of 0.375% of the maximum amount available under the facility and outstanding letters of credit are subject to a fee of between 1.25% and 0.75%, depending on the Company's ratio of funded debt to EBITDA, as defined in such credit facility. The facility requires the Company to maintain a maximum funded debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.5 to 1.0 and a minimum EBIT to interest ratio, as defined in such credit facility, of 4.0 to 1.0. At March 31, 2018 there were $995 letters of credit outstanding, and availability under the letter of credit facility was $4,005.

Long-Term Debt

The Company and its subsidiaries had long-term capital lease obligations outstanding as follows:

|  | March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Capital lease obligations (Note 6) |  | $ | 143 |  |  | $ | 250 |
Less: current amounts |  |  | 88 |  |  |  | 107 |
Total |  | $ | 55 |  |  | $ | 143 |

With the exception of capital leases, the Company has no long-term debt payment requirements over the next five years as of March 31, 2018.

Note 8 - Financial Instruments and Derivative Financial Instruments:

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, investments, and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash, cash equivalents, and investments with high credit quality financial institutions, and evaluates the credit worthiness of these financial institutions on a regular basis. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base and their geographic dispersion. At March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had no significant concentrations of credit risk.

Letters of Credit

The Company has entered into standby letter of credit agreements with financial institutions relating to the guarantee of future performance on certain contracts. At March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company was contingently liable on outstanding standby letters of credit aggregating $8,233 and $8,372, respectively. See Note 7.

Foreign Exchange Risk Management

The Company, as a result of its global operating and financial activities, is exposed to market risks from changes in foreign exchange rates. In seeking to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with such activities, the Company may utilize foreign exchange forward contracts with fixed dates of maturity and exchange rates. The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and only holds contracts with high quality financial institutions. If the counter-parties to any such exchange contracts do not fulfill their obligations to deliver the contracted foreign currencies, the Company could be at risk for fluctuations, if any, required to settle the obligation. At March 31, 2018 and 2017, there were no foreign exchange forward contracts held by the Company.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimates of the fair value of financial instruments are summarized as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments and are considered Level 1 assets in the fair value hierarchy.

46

Investments: The fair value of investments at March 31, 2018 and 2017 approximated the carrying value and are considered Level 2 assets in the fair value hierarchy.

The net deferred income tax liability recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets results from differences between financial statement and tax reporting of income and deductions. A summary of the composition of the Company's net deferred income tax liability follows:

|  | March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Depreciation |  | $ | (1,582 | ) |  | $ | (2,201 | )

Less: Valuation allowance |  |  | (1,074 | ) |  |  | (959 | )
Total |  | $ | (1,412 | ) |  | $ | (4,026 | )

The foreign deferred income tax asset of $15 and $25 at March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, is included in the caption "Other Assets" in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Deferred income taxes include the impact of state investment tax credits of $279, which expire from 2019 to 2032 and state investment tax credits of $795, which have an unlimited carryforward period.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers, within each taxing jurisdiction, whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the consideration of the weight of both positive and negative evidence, management determined that a portion of the deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2018 and 2017 related to certain state investment tax credits would not be realized, and recorded a valuation allowance of $1,074 and $959, respectively.

The Company files federal and state income tax returns in several domestic and international jurisdictions. In most tax jurisdictions, returns are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities for a number of years after the returns have been filed. The Company is subject to U.S. federal examination for tax years 2015 through 2017 and examination in state tax jurisdictions for tax years 2013 through 2017. The Company is subject to examination in the People's Republic of China for tax years 2014 through 2017. The liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $0 at each of March 31, 2018 and 2017.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Act was signed into law. The Tax Act significantly revised the U.S. tax code by, among other changes, lowering the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, requiring a one-time transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred and creating new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. The Company remeasured certain U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%, and recorded an income tax benefit of $971 related to such re-measurement in fiscal 2018. The Company is still analyzing certain aspects of the Tax Act, which could potentially affect the measurement of these balances or potentially give rise to new deferred tax amounts.

The one-time transition tax is based on the total post-1986 earnings and profits (“E&P”) of our foreign subsidiary that has previously been deferred from U.S. income taxes. The Company recorded its one-time transition liability of its foreign subsidiary resulting in additional income tax expense of $185 in fiscal 2018. The Company has not yet completed its calculation of the total post-1986 foreign E&P for the foreign subsidiary. The transition tax is based in part on the amount of those earnings held in cash and other specified assets. The amount may change upon completion of the fiscal 2018 tax return when the Company finalizes the calculation of post-1986 foreign E&P previously deferred from U.S. federal taxation and finalize the amounts held in cash or other specified assets.

48

The Tax Act also includes two new U.S. tax base-erosion provisions, the global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) provisions and the base-erosion and anti-abuse tax (“BEAT) provisions, beginning in 2018. The GILTI provisions require the Company to include in its U.S. income tax return foreign subsidiary earnings in excess of an allowable return on the foreign subsidiary’s tangible assets. The Company has not yet determined if it will be subject to incremental U.S. tax on GILTI income beginning in 2018. The Company has elected to account for GILTI tax in the period in which it is incurred, and therefore has not provided any deferred tax impacts of GILTI in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018. The BEAT provisions in the Tax Act eliminate the deduction of certain base-erosion payments made to related foreign corporations and impose a minimum tax if greater than regular tax. The Company does not expect it will be subject to this tax, and therefore has not included any tax impacts of BEAT in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 to address the application of U.S. GAAP in situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed (including computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act. The Company has recognized the provisional tax impacts related to the revaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and included this amount in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has completed the majority of its accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act. Its preliminary estimate of the deemed repatriated earnings and the re-measurement of its deferred tax assets and liabilities is subject to the finalization of management’s analysis related to certain matters that may require further adjustments and changes in estimates, such as developing interpretations of the provisions of the Tax Act, changes to certain estimates and amounts related to the E&P of its foreign subsidiary, the filing of its tax returns, U.S. Treasury regulations expected to be issued, and administrative interpretations or court decisions interpreting the Tax Act.

Note 10 – Employee Benefit Plans:

Retirement Plans

The Company has a qualified defined benefit plan covering U.S. employees hired prior to January 1, 2003, which is non-contributory. Benefits are based on the employee's years of service and average earnings for the five highest consecutive calendar years of compensation in the ten-year period preceding retirement. The Company's funding policy for the plan is to contribute the amount required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

The components of pension cost (benefit) are:

|  | Year ended March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |  |  | 2016 |
Service cost during the period |  | $ | 598 |  |  | $ | 600 |  |  | $ | 521 |

The weighted average actuarial assumptions used to determine net pension cost are:

|  | Year ended March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |  |  | 2016 |
Discount rate |  |  | 4.08 | % |  |  | 3.93 | % |  |  | 3.74 | %

Long-term rate of return on plan assets |  |  | 8.00 | % |  |  | 8.00 | % |  |  | 8.00 | %

The expected long-term rate of return is based on the mix of investments that comprise plan assets and external forecasts of future long-term investment returns, historical returns, correlations and market volatilities.

The Company does not expect to make any contributions to the plan during fiscal 2019.

The weighted average actuarial assumptions used to determine the benefit obligation are:

|  | March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Discount rate |  |  | 3.95 | % |  |  | 4.08 | %
Rate of increase in compensation levels |  |  | 3.00 | % |  |  | 3.00 | %

During fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, the pension plan released liabilities for vested benefits of certain participants through the purchase of nonparticipating annuity contracts with a third-party insurance company. As a result of these transactions, in fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, the projected benefit obligation decreased $890 and $1,118, respectively, and plan assets decreased $998 and $1,246 respectively. The projected benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of benefits attributable to employee service rendered to date, including the effects of estimated future pay increases. The accumulated benefit obligation reflects the actuarial present value of benefits attributable to employee service rendered to date, but does not include the effects of estimated future pay increases. The accumulated benefit obligation as of March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $30,385 and $30,678, respectively. At March 31, 2018 and 2017, the pension plan was fully funded on an accumulated benefit obligation basis.

Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of income tax, consist of:

|  | March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Net actuarial loss |  | $ | 8,369 |  |  | $ | 8,180 |

The increase (decrease) in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of income tax, consists of:

The estimated net actuarial loss for the pension plan that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net pension cost in fiscal 2019 is $847.

The following benefit payments, which reflect future service, are expected to be paid:

2019 |  | $ | 1,206 |
2020 |  |  | 1,338 |
2021 |  |  | 1,428 |
2022 |  |  | 1,471 |
2023 |  |  | 1,490 |
2024-2028 |  |  | 8,369 |
Total |  | $ | 15,302 |

The weighted average asset allocation of the plan assets by asset category is as follows:

|  |  |  | March 31, |
Asset Category |  | Target Allocation |  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Equity securities |  | 50-70% |  |  | 67 | % |  |  | 68 | %
Debt securities |  | 20-50% |  |  | 33 | % |  |  | 32 | %
|  |  |  |  | 100 | % |  |  | 100 | %

The investment strategy of the plan is to generate a consistent total investment return sufficient to pay present and future plan benefits to retirees, while minimizing the long-term cost to the Company. Target allocations for asset categories are used to earn a reasonable rate of return, provide required liquidity and minimize the risk of large losses. Targets are adjusted when considered necessary to reflect trends and developments within the overall investment environment.

The fair values of the Company's pension plan assets at March 31, 2018 and 2017, by asset category, are as follows:

The fair value of Level 1 pension assets is obtained by reference to the last quoted price of the respective security on the market which it trades. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

On February 4, 2003, the Company closed the defined benefit plan to all employees hired on or after January 1, 2003. In place of the defined benefit plan, these employees participate in the Company's domestic defined contribution plan. The Company contributes a fixed percentage of employee compensation to this plan on an annual basis for these employees. The Company contribution to the defined contribution plan for these employees in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016 was $284, $286 and $315, respectively.

The Company has a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") which provides retirement benefits associated with wages in excess of the legislated qualified plan maximums. Pension expense recorded in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017, and fiscal 2016 related to this plan was $115, $128 and $76, respectively. At March 31, 2018 and 2017, the related liability was $582 and $493, respectively. The current portion of the related liability of $17 and $26 at March 31, 2018 and 2017 is included in the caption "Accrued Compensation" and the long-term portion is included in "Accrued Pension Liability" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company has a domestic defined contribution plan (401k) covering substantially all employees. The Company provides matching contributions equal to 100% of the first 3% of an employee's salary deferral and 50% of the next 2% percent of an employee’s salary deferral. Company contributions are immediately vested. Contributions were $805 in fiscal 2018, $873 in fiscal 2017 and $866 in fiscal 2016.

Other Postretirement Benefits

In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company has a plan in the U.S. that provides health care benefits for eligible retirees and eligible survivors of retirees. The Company's share of the medical premium cost has been capped at $4 for family coverage and $2 for single coverage for early retirees, and $1 for both family and single coverage for regular retirees.

On February 4, 2003, the Company terminated postretirement health care benefits for its U.S. employees. Benefits payable to retirees of record on April 1, 2003 remained unchanged.

The components of postretirement benefit expense are:

|  | Year ended March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |  |  | 2016 |
Interest cost on accumulated benefit obligation |  | $ | 26 |  |  | $ | 26 |  |  | $ | 29 |
Amortization of actuarial loss |  |  | 37 |  |  |  | 36 |  |  |  | 40 |
Net postretirement benefit expense |  | $ | 63 |  |  | $ | 62 |  |  | $ | 69 |

The weighted average discount rates used to develop the net postretirement benefit cost were 3.23%, 3.16% and 3.11% in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively.

The weighted average actuarial assumptions used to develop the accrued postretirement benefit obligation were:

|  | March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Discount rate |  |  | 3.63 | % |  |  | 3.23 | %
Medical care cost trend rate |  |  | 8.00 | % |  |  | 8.00 | %

The medical care cost trend rate used in the actuarial computation ultimately reduces to 5% in 2024 and subsequent years. This was accomplished using 0.5% decrements for the years ended March 31, 2018 through 2024.

The current portion of the accrued postretirement benefit obligation of $81 and $83, at March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, is included in the caption "Accrued Compensation" and the long-term portion is separately presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of income tax, consist of:

|  | March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Net actuarial loss |  | $ | 230 |  |  | $ | 259 |

The decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of income tax, consists of:

|  | March 31, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Net actuarial loss (gain) arising during the year |  | $ | (57 | ) |  | $ | 13 |

Amortization of actuarial loss |  |  | (29 | ) |  |  | (24 | )
|  | $ | (29 | ) |  | $ | (11 | )

The estimated net actuarial loss for the other postretirement benefit plan that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net postretirement benefit income in fiscal 2019 is $27.

53

The following benefit payments are expected to be paid during the fiscal years ending March 31:

2019 |  | $ | 81 |
2020 |  |  | 77 |
2021 |  |  | 73 |
2022 |  |  | 69 |
2023 |  |  | 64 |
2024-2028 |  |  | 257 |
Total |  | $ | 621 |

Assumed medical care cost trend rates could have a significant affect on the amounts reported for the postretirement benefit plan. However, due to the caps imposed on the Company's share of the premium costs, a one percentage point change in assumed medical care cost trend rates would not have a significant affect on the total service and interest cost components or the postretirement benefit obligation.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

On January 3, 2017, the Company transferred the Company stock and accumulated dividends in its noncontributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") to its domestic defined contribution plan (401K) and subsequently terminated the ESOP. There were no Company contributions to the ESOP in fiscal 2017 or fiscal 2016.

Self-Insured Medical Plan

Effective January 1, 2014, the Company commenced self-funding the medical insurance coverage provided to its U.S. based employees. The Company has obtained a stop loss insurance policy in an effort to limit its exposure to claims. The Company has specific stop loss coverage per employee for claims incurred during the year exceeding $100 per employee with annual maximum aggregate stop loss coverage per employee of $1,000. The Company also has total plan annual maximum aggregate stop loss coverage of $2,398. The liability of $122 and $174 on March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, related to the self-insured medical plan is primarily based upon claim history and is included in the caption "Accrued Compensation" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 11 - Stock Compensation Plans:

The Amended and Restated 2000 Graham Corporation Incentive Plan to Increase Shareholder Value, as approved by the Company's stockholders at the Annual Meeting on July 28, 2016, provides for the issuance of up to 1,375 shares of common stock in connection with grants of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock awards and performance awards to officers, key employees and outside directors; provided, however, that no more than 467 shares of common stock may be used for awards other than stock options. Stock options may be granted at prices not less than the fair market value at the date of grant and expire no later than ten years after the date of grant.

In fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, 59, 82 and 34 shares, respectively, of restricted stock were awarded. Restricted shares of 30, 43 and 15 granted to officers in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively, vest 100% on the third anniversary of the grant date subject to the satisfaction of the performance metrics for the applicable three-year period. Restricted shares of 22, 31, and 12 granted to officers and key employees in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017, and fiscal 2016 respectively, vest 33⅓% per year over a three-year term. The restricted shares granted to directors of 7, 8 and 7 in fiscal 2018, fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively, vest 100% on the first anniversary of the grant date.

Note 17– Commitments and Contingencies:

The Company has been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos allegedly contained in, or accompanying, products made by the Company. The Company is a co-defendant with numerous other defendants in these lawsuits and intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims. The claims in the Company’s current lawsuits are similar to those made in previous asbestos-related suits that named the Company as a defendant, which either were dismissed when it was shown that the Company had not supplied products to the plaintiffs’ places of work or were settled for immaterial amounts. The Company cannot provide any assurances that any pending or future matters will be resolved in the same manner as previous lawsuits.

As of March 31, 2018, the Company was subject to the claims noted above, as well as other legal proceedings and potential claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business.

Although the outcome of the lawsuits, legal proceedings or potential claims to which the Company is, or may become, a party to cannot be determined and an estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss cannot be made, management does not believe that the outcomes, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material affect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Graham Corporation

Batavia, New York

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Graham Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2018 of the Company and our report dated June 4, 2018, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2018. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our organization have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving our stated goals under all potential future conditions. Moreover, over time controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in the design of an internal control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Vice President–Finance & Administration and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established in Internal Control–Integrated Framework ("2013") issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on the assessment under this framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2018.

Deloitte & Touche LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting.
