L.B. FOSTER COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Dollars in thousands, except share data)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all estimates and adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in L.B. Foster Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer collectively to L.B. Foster Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Note 2. Business Segments
The Company is a global technology solutions provider of engineered, manufactured products and services that builds and supports infrastructure. The Company’s segments represent components of the Company (a) that engage in activities from which revenue is generated and expenses are incurred, (b) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), who uses such information to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments, and (c) for which discrete financial information is available. Operating segments are evaluated on their segment profit contribution to the Company’s consolidated results. Other income and expenses, interest, income taxes, and certain other items are managed on a consolidated basis. The Company’s segment accounting policies are described in Note 2 Business Segments of the Notes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The Company is organized and operates in two reporting segments: Rail, Technologies, and Services (“Rail”), and Infrastructure Solutions (“Infrastructure”). Effective for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023, the Company made certain organizational changes that led to the conclusion that it will operate under two reporting segments as opposed to the three reporting segments it has operated under historically. As such, the Company has restated segment information for the historical periods presented herein to conform to the current presentation. The Infrastructure business comprises both the historic Precast Concrete Products and Steel Products and Measurement (since renamed “Steel Products”) reporting segments.
The operating results of the Company’s reportable segments were as follows for the periods presented:

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 |  | Three Months Ended June 30, 2023
|  | Net Sales |  | Segment Operating Income |  | Net Sales |  | Segment Operating Income
Rail, Technologies, and Services |  | $ | 85,594 |  |  | $ | 5,431 |  |  | $ | 91,616 |  |  | $ | 6,627 |
Infrastructure Solutions |  | 55,202 |  |  | 3,618 |  |  | 56,418 |  |  | 2,752 |
Total |  | $ | 140,796 |  |  | $ | 9,049 |  |  | $ | 148,034 |  |  | $ | 9,379 |

|  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 |  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2023
|  | Net Sales |  | Segment Operating Income |  | Net Sales |  | Segment Operating Income
Rail, Technologies, and Services |  | $ | 168,217 |  |  | $ | 12,209 |  |  | $ | 156,000 |  |  | $ | 9,015 |
Infrastructure Solutions |  | 96,899 |  |  | 2,225 |  |  | 107,522 |  |  | 2,396 |
Total |  | $ | 265,116 |  |  | $ | 14,434 |  |  | $ | 263,522 |  |  | $ | 11,411 |

Segment income from operations, as shown above, includes allocated corporate operating expenses. Allocated corporate operating expenses include costs associated with central services such as quality, logistics, environmental health and safety, information technology, insurance, and human resources. Other corporate functional costs that are associated with the operating segments are also allocated to the segments such as finance, marketing, credit and collections, and treasury functions. Operating expenses related to corporate headquarter functions were allocated to each segment based on segment headcount, revenue contribution, or activity of the

business units within the segments, based on the corporate activity type provided to the segment. Management believes the allocation of corporate operating expenses provides an accurate presentation of how the segments utilize corporate support activities. This provides the CODM meaningful segment profitability information to support operating decisions and the allocation of resources. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies found in Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
During the quarter, the Company divested an ancillary property within the Steel Products business unit for total proceeds of $1,300 generating an $815 gain on sale recorded in “Cost of goods sold” for the three months ended June 30, 2024 which has been included in the Infrastructure segment's operating income.
Certain corporate costs are separately managed on a consolidated basis and are not allocated to the operating segments. These corporate costs include public company costs such as listing fees, audit fees, compliance costs, and Board of Directors fees. Additionally, certain corporate executive management costs, including costs of the corporate executive leadership team, and corporate management stock-based compensation expenses are not allocated to the operating segments. Finally, interest expense, income taxes, and certain other items included in other income and expense which are managed on a consolidated basis are not allocated to the operating segments.
The following table demonstrates a reconciliation of reportable segment net profit to the Company’s consolidated total for the periods presented:

On June 30, 2023, the Company sold substantially all the operating assets of the prestressed concrete railroad tie business operated by its wholly-owned subsidiary, CXT Incorporated (“Ties”), located in Spokane, WA, for $2,362 in proceeds, generating a $1,009 loss on the sale, which was recorded in “Other expense (income) - net” for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The Ties business was reported in the Rail Products business unit within the Rail segment.
On August 30, 2023, the Company announced the discontinuation of its Bridge Products grid deck product line (“Bridge Exit”) which was reported in the Steel Products business unit within the Infrastructure segment. The decision to exit the bridge grid deck product line was a result of a weak bridge grid deck market condition and outlook due to customer adoption of newer technologies replacing the grid deck solution. The Company continues to operate its bridge forms product line which is a newer technology and not subject to the same challenging market conditions. The Bedford, PA based operations supporting the discontinued bridge grid deck product line expects to complete any remaining customer obligations during 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the discontinued product line had $1,157 and $1,975 in sales, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the discontinued product line had $1,967 and $3,466 in sales, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred an immaterial amount of exit costs, all of which were personnel expenses. The Company does not expect to incur additional material exit costs in the remainder of 2024. Cumulatively, the Company has incurred a total of $1,476 in exit costs for the Bridge Exit, which included $474 in inventory write-downs, $740 in personnel expenses, and $262 in other exit costs, which were recorded in “Other (income) expense - net,” the majority of which were incurred in the last six months of 2023.
On November 17, 2023, the Company acquired the operating assets of Cougar Mountain Precast, LLC (“Cougar”), located in Caldwell, Idaho, which is a licensed manufacturer of Redi-Rock and natural concrete products for $1,644, subject to hold back payments, to be paid over the next twelve months or utilized to satisfy post-close working capital adjustments or indemnity claims. Cougar has been included in the Precast Concrete Products business unit within the Infrastructure segment.

The majority of the Company’s revenue is from products transferred and services rendered to customers at a point in time. The Company recognizes revenue at the point in time at which the customer obtains control of the product or service, which is generally when the product title passes to the customer upon shipment or the service has been rendered to the customer. In limited cases, title does not transfer and revenue is not recognized until the customer has received the products at a designated physical location.

The Company’s performance obligations under long-term agreements with its customers are generally satisfied over time. Over time revenue is primarily comprised of transit infrastructure and technology services and solutions projects within the Rail segment, precast concrete buildings within the Precast Concrete Products division in the Infrastructure segment, and long-term bridge projects and custom precision metering systems within the Steel Products division in the Infrastructure segment. Revenue under these long-term agreements is generally recognized over time, either using an input measure based upon the proportion of actual costs incurred to estimated total project costs or an input measure based upon actual labor costs as a percentage of estimated total labor costs, depending upon which measure the Company believes best depicts the Company’s performance to date under the terms of the contract, or an output method, specifically units delivered, based upon certain customer acceptance and delivery requirements. The use of an input or an output measure to recognize revenue is determined based on what is most appropriate given the nature of the work performed and terms of the associated agreement.
Accounting for these long-term agreements involves the use of various techniques to estimate total revenues and costs. The Company estimates profit on these long-term agreements as the difference between total estimated revenues and expected costs to complete a contract and recognizes that profit over the life of the contract. As a result of management's reviews of contract-related estimates the Company makes adjustments to contract estimates that impact our revenue and profit totals. Changes in estimates are primarily attributed to updated considerations, including economic conditions and historic contract patterns, resulting in changes to anticipated revenue from existing contracts. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, reductions to net sales stemming from changes in actual and expected values of certain commercial contracts and settlements of such contracts were $1,477. Such adjustments were $1,035 and $1,428 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The Company’s estimates related to these long-term agreements are further described in Note 4 Revenue of the Notes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The Company has established policies regarding allowance for credit losses associated with contract assets, which includes standalone reserve assessments for its long term, complex contracts as needed as well as detailed regular review and updates to contract margins, progress, and value. A standard reserve threshold is applied to contract assets related to short term, less complex contracts. Management also regularly reviews collection patterns and future expected collections and makes necessary revisions to allowance for credit losses related to contract assets.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $249,805 of remaining performance obligations, which are also referred to as backlog. Approximately 10.2% of the June 30, 2024 backlog was related to projects that are anticipated to extend beyond June 30, 2025.

On November 17, 2023, the Company acquired the operating assets of Cougar Mountain Precast, LLC, for which all purchase accounting adjustments were finalized as of March 31, 2024. Purchase accounting finalization during the first quarter of 2024 included adjustments to record $429 of gross intangible assets for customer relationships with a weighted average amortization period of 5 years.
The Company performs goodwill impairment tests annually during the fourth quarter, and also performs interim goodwill impairment tests if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying amount. Qualitative factors are assessed to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying amount, which included the impacts of current economic conditions, including but not limited to labor markets, supply chains, and other inflationary costs. However, these factors can be unpredictable and are subject to change. No interim goodwill impairment test was required as a result of the evaluation of qualitative factors as of June 30, 2024. However, future impairment charges could result if future projections diverge unfavorably from current expectations.
The following table sets forth the components of the Company’s intangible assets for the periods presented:

Note 5. Accounts Receivable
Changes in reserves for uncollectible accounts are recorded as part of “Selling and administrative expenses” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and were an expense of $134 and $256 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and an expense of $529 and $411 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The Company established the allowance for credit losses by calculating the amount to reserve based on the age of a given trade receivable and considering historical collection patterns, bad debt expense experience, expected future trends of collections, current and expected market conditions, and any other relevant subjective adjustments as needed. Management maintains high-quality credit review practices and positive customer relationships that mitigate credit risks. The Company’s reserves are regularly reviewed and revised as necessary.

On August 13, 2021, the Company, its domestic subsidiaries, and certain of its Canadian and United Kingdom subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, N.A., Citizens Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Bank of America, N.A., and BMO Harris Bank, National Association. The Credit Agreement, as amended, modifies the prior amended revolving credit facility, on terms more favorable to the Company and extends the maturity from April 30, 2024 to August 13, 2026. The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year, revolving credit facility that permits aggregate borrowings of the Borrowers up to $130,000 with a sublimit of the equivalent of $25,000 U.S. dollars that is available to the Canadian and United Kingdom borrowers in the aggregate. The Credit Agreement’s incremental loan feature permits the Company to increase the available commitments under the facility by up to an additional $50,000 subject to the Company’s receipt of increased commitments from existing or new lenders and the satisfaction of certain conditions. On August 12, 2022, the Company entered into a second amendment to its Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) which added an additional tier to the pricing grid and provided for the conversion from LIBOR-based to SOFR-based borrowings.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement, as amended, will bear interest at rates based upon either the base rate or SOFR rate plus applicable margins. The Credit Agreement includes two financial covenants: (a) Maximum Gross Leverage Ratio, defined as the Company’s consolidated Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement) divided by the Company’s consolidated EBITDA, which must not exceed (i) 3.25 to 1.00 for all testing periods other than during an Acquisition Period (as defined in the Credit Agreement), and (ii) 3.50 to 1.00 for all testing periods occurring during an Acquisition Period, and (b) Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, defined as the Company’s consolidated EBITDA divided by the Company’s Fixed Charges (as defined in the Credit Agreement), which must be more than 1.05 to 1.00. As of June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement, as amended, and had outstanding letters of credit of approximately $2,084.

Note 9. Income Taxes
For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $346 and $563, respectively, on pre-tax income of $3,163 and $4,056, respectively, for an effective income tax rate of 10.9% and 13.9%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $635 and $22, respectively, on pre-tax income of $7,857 and $1,344, respectively, for an effective income tax rate of 8.1% and 1.6%, respectively. The Company's effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 differed from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the realization of a portion of its U.S. deferred tax assets previously offset by a valuation allowance. The Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets, which is likely to result in significant variability of the effective tax rate in the current year. Changes in pre-tax income projections, combined with the seasonal nature of our businesses, could also impact the effective income tax rate each quarter.
Note 10. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $1,314 and $945 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $2,347 and $1,829 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to restricted stock awards and performance unit awards. As of June 30, 2024, unrecognized compensation expense for awards that the Company expects to vest approximated $7,478. The Company will recognize this unrecognized compensation expense over the upcoming 2.6 years through February 13, 2027.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had stock awards issued pursuant to the 2022 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Equity and Incentive Plan”) and its predecessor, the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”). No stock options are outstanding under either the Omnibus Plan or Equity and Incentive Plan and, as such, there was no stock-based compensation expense related to stock options recorded for the June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Non-Employee Director Fully-Vested and Restricted Stock Awards
Since May 2018, non-employee directors have been awarded shares of the Company’s common stock on each date the non-employee directors were elected at the annual shareholders’ meeting to serve as directors, subject to a one-year vesting requirement. The Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors under the Omnibus Plan and, by amendment, under the Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan, which permits non-employee directors of the Company to defer receipt of earned cash and/or stock compensation for service on the Board into deferred stock units.
Restricted Stock and Performance-Based Stock and Share Units
Under the Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan and Omnibus Plan, the Company grants certain employees restricted stock and performance-based stock and share units. The forfeitable restricted stock awards granted generally time-vest ratably over a three-year period, unless indicated otherwise by the underlying restricted stock award agreement. Performance unit awards are offered annually under separate three-year long-term incentive programs, unless indicated otherwise by the underlying performance unit award

Note 11. Fair Value Measurements
The Company determines the fair value of assets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The fair values are based on assumptions that market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in valuation techniques and the inputs to valuations. The fair value hierarchy is based on whether the inputs to valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions of what market participants would use. The fair value hierarchy includes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value as described below.
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
The classification of a financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
SOFR-based interest rate swaps - To reduce the impact of interest rate changes on outstanding variable-rate debt, the Company amended and entered into forward-starting SOFR-based interest rate swaps with notional values totaling $20,000 and $20,000 effective August 12, 2022 and August 31, 2022, respectively. The fair value of the interest rate swaps are based on market-observable forward interest rates and represents the estimated amount that the Company would pay to terminate the agreements. As such, the swap agreements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the interest rate swaps were recorded in “Other current assets” when the interest rate swaps’ fair market value are in an asset position, and “Other accrued liabilities” when in a liability position within our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

|  | Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date |  |  | Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date
|  | June 30, 2024 |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3 |  |  | December 31, 2023 |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3
Interest rate swaps |  | $ | 1,146 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1,146 |  |  | $ | — |  |  |  | $ | 1,225 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1,225 |  |  | $ | — |
Total assets |  | $ | 1,146 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1,146 |  |  | $ | — |  |  |  | $ | 1,225 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1,225 |  |  | $ | — |

The $20,000 interest rate swap agreements that became effective August 2022 are accounted for as cash flow hedges and the objective of the hedges is to offset the expected interest variability on payments associated with the interest rate on our debt. The gains and losses related to the interest rate swaps are reclassified from “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and included in “Interest expense - net” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as the interest expense from our debt is recognized.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized interest income of $340 and $295, respectively, from interest rate swaps. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized interest income of $677 and $540 respectively, from interest rate swaps.

Note 12. Retirement Plans
The Company has three retirement plans that cover its hourly and salaried employees in the United States: one defined benefit plan, which is frozen, and two defined contribution plans. Employees are eligible to participate in the appropriate plan based on employment classification. The Company’s contributions to the defined benefit and defined contribution plans are governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) and the Company’s policy and investment guidelines applicable to each respective plan. The Company’s policy is to contribute at least the minimum in accordance with the funding standards of ERISA. The Company maintains one defined contribution plan for its employees in Canada. In the United Kingdom, the Company maintains two defined contribution plans and a defined benefit plan, which is frozen.
On May 23, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the termination of our frozen L.B. Foster Company Merged Retirement Plan (the “US DB Plan”) and the Portec Rail Products (UK) Limited Pension Scheme (the “UK DB Plan”). The transfer of plan assets and obligations to insurers, and subsequent termination is expected to be completed by June 30, 2025.
The Company’s US DB Plan is underfunded as of June 30, 2024, and will require cash payments of approximately $2,000 to $3,000 to effectuate the termination. The estimated cash payments are subject to change due to changes in market conditions that can impact the return on plan assets that are held by the US DB Plan and the UK DB Plan. The UK DB Plan is fully funded as of June 30, 2024, and we do not expect any additional contributions to be required during the termination process.
These plans are discussed in further detail below.

United Kingdom regulations require trustees to adopt a prudent approach to funding required contributions to defined benefit pension plans. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company contributed approximately $156 to the plan. The Company anticipates total contributions of approximately $316 to the United Kingdom pension plan during 2024.

Note 13. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
Product Liability Claims
The Company is subject to product warranty claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business. For certain manufactured products, the Company maintains a product warranty accrual, which is adjusted on a monthly basis as a percentage of cost of sales. In addition, the product warranty accrual is adjusted periodically based on the identification or resolution of known individual product warranty claims.
Union Pacific Railroad (“UPRR”) Concrete Tie Matter
On March 13, 2019, the Company and its subsidiary, CXT Incorporated (“CXT”), entered into a Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with UPRR to resolve the then-pending litigation in the matter of Union Pacific Railroad Company v. L.B. Foster Company and CXT Incorporated, Case No. CI 15-564, in the District Court for Douglas County, Nebraska.
Under the Settlement Agreement, the Company and CXT will pay UPRR the aggregate amount of $50,000 without pre-judgment interest, which began with a $2,000 immediate payment, and with the remaining $48,000 paid in installments over a six-year period commencing on the effective date of the Settlement Agreement through December 2024 pursuant to a Promissory Note. Additionally, commencing in January 2019 and through December 2024, UPRR agreed to purchase and has been purchasing from the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, a cumulative total amount of $48,000 of products and services, targeting $8,000 of annual purchases per year beginning March 13, 2019, per letters of intent under the Settlement Agreement. During the third quarter of 2021, in connection with the Company’s divestiture of its Piling Products division, the targeted annual purchases per year have been reduced to $6,000 for 2021 through 2024. The Settlement Agreement also includes a mutual release of all claims and liability regarding or relating to all CXT pre-stressed concrete railroad ties with no admission of liability and dismissal of the litigation with prejudice.
The expected payment under the UPRR Settlement Agreement for the remainder of the year ending December 31, 2024 is $6,000, upon which the obligation for the Settlement Agreement will be satisfied.
Environmental and Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to national, state, foreign, provincial, and/or local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. The Company’s efforts to comply with environmental regulations may have an adverse effect on its future earnings.
On June 5, 2017, a General Notice Letter was received from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) indicating that the Company may be a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) regarding the Portland Harbor Superfund Site cleanup along with numerous other companies. More than 140 other companies received such a notice. The Company and a predecessor owned and operated a facility near the harbor site for a period prior to 1982. The net present value and undiscounted costs of the selected remedy throughout the harbor site are estimated by the EPA to be approximately $1.1 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively, and the remedial work is expected to take as long as 13 years to complete. These costs may increase given that the remedy will not be initiated or completed for several years. The Company is reviewing the basis for its identification by the EPA and the nature of the historic operations of a Company predecessor near the site. Additionally, the Company executed a PRP agreement which provides for a private allocation process among almost 100 PRPs in a working group whose work is ongoing and involves a process that will ultimately conclude a proposed allocation of liability for cleanup of the site and various sub-areas. The Company does not have any individual risk sharing agreements in place with respect to the site, and was only associated with the site from 1976 to when it purchased the stock of a company whose assets it sold in 1982 and which was dissolved in 1994. On March 26, 2020, the EPA issued a Unilateral Administrative Order to two parties requiring them to perform remedial design work for that portion of the Harbor Superfund Site that includes the area closest to the facility; the Company was not a recipient of this Unilateral Administrative Order. The Company cannot predict the ultimate impact of these proceedings because of the large number of PRPs involved throughout the harbor site, the size and extent of the site, the degree of contamination of various wastes, varying environmental impacts throughout the harbor site, the scarcity of data related to the facility once operated by the Company and a predecessor, potential comparative liability between the allocation parties and regarding non-participants, and the speculative nature of the remediation costs. Based upon information currently available, management does not believe that the Company’s alleged PRP status regarding the Portland Harbor Superfund Site or other compliance with the present environmental protection laws will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, competitive position, or capital expenditures of the Company. As more information develops and the
21

Table of Contents
allocation process is completed, and given the resolution of factors like those described above, an unfavorable resolution could have a material adverse effect. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company maintained environmental reserves approximating $2,398 and $2,417, respectively.
The Company is also subject to other legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Legal actions are subject to inherent uncertainties, and future events could change management’s assessment of the probability or estimated amount of potential losses from pending or threatened legal actions. Based on available information, it is the opinion of management that the ultimate resolution of pending or threatened legal actions, both individually and in the aggregate, will not result in losses having a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or liquidity as of June 30, 2024.
If management believes that, based on available information, it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss (or additional material loss in excess of any accrual) will be incurred in connection with any legal actions, the Company discloses an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, either individually or in the aggregate, as appropriate, if such an estimate can be made, or discloses that an estimate cannot be made. Based on the Company’s assessment as of June 30, 2024, no such disclosures were considered necessary.
Note 14. Subsequent Events
On August 5, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the modification of the Company’s stock repurchase program. The modifications include revising the repurchase program expiration date from February 2026 to February 2025. Additionally, the Board of Directors removed the restriction which previously limited repurchases to $5,000 in any trailing 12-month period. The authorized repurchase amount was unchanged at $15,000. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has repurchased stock of $4,021, with $10,979 of the original $15,000 authorized remaining. Any repurchases will continue to be subject to the Company’s liquidity, including availability of borrowings and covenant compliance under its revolving credit facility, and other capital needs of the business.
In August 2024, the Company announced an enterprise restructuring program aligned with its strategy to reduce costs and enable investment in growth platforms. Total restructuring program includes both headcount reductions and attrition and is expected to result in severance and outplacement services charges totaling approximately $1,500. The majority of the restructuring costs will be recorded in the third quarter of 2024 with any remaining costs being recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024. Annual run rate savings are expected to be approximately $4,500 with approximately $2,000 in savings being realized in 2024.

General Overview and Business Update
L.B. Foster Company is a global technology solutions provider of engineered, manufactured products and services that builds and supports infrastructure. The Company’s innovative engineering and product development solutions address the safety, reliability, and performance needs of its customers’ most challenging requirements. The Company maintains locations in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia.
The Company is organized and operates in two reporting segments: Rail, Technologies, and Services (“Rail”), and Infrastructure Solutions (“Infrastructure”). Effective for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023, the Company made certain organizational changes that led to the conclusion that it will operate under two reporting segments as opposed to the three reporting segments it has operated under historically. As such, the Company has restated segment information for the historical periods presented herein to conform to the current presentation. The Infrastructure business comprises both the historic Precast Concrete Products and Steel Products and Measurement (since renamed “Steel Products”) reporting segments.
Acquisitions, Divestitures, and Product Line Exit
On March 30, 2023, the Company sold substantially all the operating assets of its Chemtec Energy Services LLC (“Chemtec”) business for $5,344 in proceeds generating a $2,065 loss on sale, recorded in “Other expense (income) - net” for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The Chemtec business was reported in the Steel Products business unit in the Infrastructure segment.
On June 30, 2023, the Company sold substantially all the operating assets of the prestressed concrete railroad tie business operated by its wholly-owned subsidiary, CXT Incorporated (“Ties”), located in Spokane, WA, for $2,362 in proceeds, generating a $1,009 loss on the sale, which was recorded in “Other expense (income) - net” for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The Ties business was reported in the Rail Products business unit within the Rail segment.
On August 30, 2023, the Company announced the discontinuation of its Bridge Products grid deck product line (“Bridge Exit”) which was reported in the Steel Products business unit within the Infrastructure segment. The decision to exit the bridge grid deck product line was a result of a weak bridge grid deck market condition and outlook due to customer adoption of newer technologies replacing the grid deck solution. The Company continues to operate its bridge forms product line which is a newer technology and not subject to the same challenging market conditions. The Bedford, PA based operations supporting the discontinued product line expects to complete any remaining customer obligations during 2025. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the discontinued product line had $1,157 and $1,975 in sales, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the discontinued product line had $1,967 and $3,466 in sales, respectively.
On November 17, 2023, the Company acquired the operating assets of Cougar Mountain Precast, LLC (“Cougar”), located in Caldwell, Idaho, which is a licensed manufacturer of Redi-Rock and natural concrete products for $1,644, subject to hold back payments, to be paid over the twelve months following the closing or utilized to satisfy post-close working capital adjustments or indemnity claims. Cougar has been included in the Precast Concrete Products business unit within the Infrastructure segment.

Results Summary
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024, decreased by $7,238, or 4.9%, over the prior year quarter. The decrease in sales is due to a decrease in organic sales of $5,007, or 3.4%, and the Ties divestiture and the Bridge Exit which reduced sales by $2,231, or 1.5%. The decline in organic sales was primarily in the Rail segment.
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $1,729, or 5.4%, from the prior year quarter and gross profit margins decreased by 10 basis points. The decline in gross profit was driven primarily by volumes and softer market prices in the domestic Rail Distribution business within Rail Products. Margins within the Infrastructure segment improved year over year due to our portfolio transformation activities and a $815 gain on the sale of ancillary property within the Steel Products business unit.
Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $368, or 1.5%, over the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily attributed to $751 in corporate legal expense associated with an ongoing legal matter and $473 in professional services expenditures. Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales increased to 17.7% from 16.6% in the prior year quarter.
Net interest expense decreased $81 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the prior year quarter. The Company’s outstanding debt balance was $87,173 as of June 30, 2024, compared to $89,505 as of June 30, 2023.
Other income - net for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $152 and was primarily attributable to rental income received. Other expense - net for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $719 and was primarily due to the $1,041 loss on the sale of Ties during the prior year quarter.
The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was 10.9%, compared to 13.9% in the prior year quarter. The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 differed from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the realization of a portion of its U.S. deferred tax assets previously offset by a valuation allowance. The Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets, which is likely to result in significant variability of the effective tax rate in the current year.

Net income attributable to the Company for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $684, or $0.06 per diluted share, from the prior year quarter. The change in net income attributable to the Company was due to lower operating income partially offset by lower other expense - net.

The Rail segment sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $6,022, or 6.6%, compared to the prior year quarter. Organic sales declined by $4,609, or 5.0%, and the divestiture of Ties resulted in lower sales of $1,413, or 1.5%. Rail Products sales decreased by $7,923, including the divestiture of Ties, due to lower volumes and softer market prices. Technology Services and Solutions sales increased by $2,143 due to strength in the domestic rail safety markets served, as well as improvement in United Kingdom markets. Global Friction management sales decreased $242, driven by a decline in domestic sales.
The Rail segment gross profit decreased by $1,972, or 9.9%, compared to the prior year quarter, and gross profit margins decreased 80 basis points to 20.9%. The decline in gross profit was driven by Rail Products which decreased by $3,293 from the prior year quarter due to lower volumes and softer market prices. This was partially offset by the Technology Services and Solutions business unit where gross profit improved by $831 from the prior year quarter due to higher volumes and improved mix. Improved mix in the Global Friction Management business resulted in a increase in gross profit of $490 from the prior year quarter.
Segment operating income decreased $1,196 compared to the prior year quarter, and operating income margins decreased 90 basis points to 6.3%. The decrease was driven primarily by lower gross profit, partially offset by a $751 improvement in selling and administrative expense compared to the prior year quarter.
During the current quarter, new orders within the Rail segment were $116,996, an increase of $1,011, or 0.9%, compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in new orders was attributable to a $4,040 increase in Rail Products orders, which includes offsets arising from the order declines associated with the Ties divestiture which reduced orders by $3,376. Strength in Rail Products offset order declines in the Technology Services and Solutions business unit and Global Friction Management. Segment backlog as of June 30, 2024 decreased by $17,657, or 13.3%, compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease is attributed to the Rail Products and Technology Services and Solutions businesses decreasing 13.4% and 21.5%, respectively, partially offset by a 17.0% increase in backlog with Global Friction Management associated with strong order rates in the three months ended March 31, 2024.

in the Steel Products business. The increase in gross profit margin was partially offset by lower margins in the Precast Concrete Products business.
Segment operating income for the second quarter of 2024 increased by $866 compared to the prior year quarter due primarily to higher gross profit, as well as a $398 improvement in selling and administrative expense.
During the quarter, the Infrastructure segment had new orders of $53,997, a decrease of $13,760, or 20.3%, compared to the prior year quarter. This decrease was driven entirely by the Steel Products business unit, specifically the Protective Coatings business, which is experiencing a comparative decline in orders due to large non-recurring orders received in 2023. Backlog as of June 30, 2024 decreased by $22,614, or 14.3%, versus the prior year quarter, driven entirely by Steel Products which decreased $24,634 overall, including a reduction of $6,931 related to the Bridge Exit and softness in the Steel Products group of $17,703, offsetting an increase of $2,020 in Precast Concrete Products.

Results Summary
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $1,594, or 0.6%, over the prior year period. The change in sales is due to organic sales growth of $14,465 or 5.5%, partially offset by a decrease due to divestitures and the Bridge Exit of $12,871, or 4.9%. Organic sales growth was driven by the Rail, Technologies, and Services segment.
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $1,229, or 2.2%, over the prior year period and gross profit margins increased 30 basis points. The improvement in gross profit is due to the business portfolio changes in line with the Company's strategic transformation along with higher sales volume and a $815 gain on the sale of ancillary property within the Steel Products business unit.
Selling and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $1,694, or 3.7%, from the prior year period, due primarily to increased corporate legal costs and $783 professional services expenditures. Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales increased to 18.0% from 17.4% in the prior year period, a 60 basis point increase.
Other income - net for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $3,688 while other expense - net was $2,546 in the prior year period. Other income - net for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to a gain of $3,477 on the sale of the Company’s former joint venture facility and land in Magnolia, Texas, and other expense - net for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was due primarily to the $3,074 loss on the divestitures of Ties and Chemtec.
Net interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $344, or 11.6%, from the prior year period.
The Company’s effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 8.1%, compared to 1.6% in the prior year period. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 differed from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the Company’s realization of a portion of its U.S. deferred tax assets previously offset by a valuation allowance. The Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets, which is likely to result in significant variability of the effective tax rate in the current year.
Net income attributable to the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was favorable by $5,904, or $0.54 per diluted share, over the prior year period. The increase in net income was primarily driven by other income - net of $3,688 recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to other expense - net of $2,546 recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

**Results of this calculation not considered meaningful
Unallocated corporate expenses increased in 2024 compared with 2023 primarily due to an increase of $751 in corporate legal costs associated with an ongoing legal matter, $783 in professional services expenditures, and to a lesser extent stock-based compensation and insurance expenditures.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are its existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated by operations, and the available capacity under the revolving credit facility, which provides for a total commitment of up to $130,000, of which $41,301 was available for borrowing as of June 30, 2024, subject to covenant restrictions. The Company’s primary needs for liquidity relate to working capital requirements for operations, capital expenditures, debt service obligations, payments related to the Union Pacific Railroad Settlement, tax obligations, outstanding purchase obligations, acquisitions, payments related to the termination of the US DB Plan, restructuring payments, and to support the share repurchase program. The Company’s total debt, including finance leases, was $87,173 and $55,273 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and was primarily comprised of borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants of the Credit Agreement and has $45,322 available funding capacity, subject to covenant restrictions.
The Company’s operating cash flows are impacted from period to period by fluctuations in working capital needs, as well as its overall profitability. While the Company places an emphasis on working capital management in its operations, factors such as its contract mix, commercial and collection terms, collection patters, and market conditions as well as seasonality may impact its working capital. The Company regularly assesses its receivables and contract assets for collectability and realization, and provides allowances for credit losses where appropriate. The Company believes that its reserves for credit losses are appropriate as of June 30, 2024, but adverse changes in the economic environment and adverse financial conditions of its customers may impact certain of its customers’ ability to access capital and pay the Company for its products and services, as well as impact demand for its products and services.
On May 23, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the termination of our frozen L.B. Foster Company Merged Retirement Plan (the “US DB Plan”) and the Portec Rail Products (UK) Limited Pension Scheme (the “UK DB Plan”). The transfer of plan assets and obligations to insurers, and subsequent termination is expected to be completed by June 30, 2025.
The Company’s US DB Plan is underfunded as of June 30, 2024, and will require cash payments of approximately $2,000 to $3,000 to effectuate the termination. The estimated cash payments are subject to change due to changes in market conditions that can impact the return on plan assets that are held by the US DB Plan and the UK DB Plan. The UK DB Plan is fully funded as of June 30, 2024, and we do not expect any additional contributions to be required during the termination process.
The changes in cash and cash equivalents for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

|  | Six Months Ended June 30,
|  | 2024 |  | 2023
Net cash used in operating activities |  | $ | (26,818) |  |  | $ | (3,333) |
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities |  | (465) |  |  | 7,716 |

Net increase in cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 1,461 |  |  | $ | 998 |

Cash Flow from Operating Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $26,818, compared to cash used in operating activities of $3,333 during the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, net income and adjustments to reconcile net income from operating activities provided $12,178, compared to $11,862 in the prior year. Working capital and other assets and liabilities were a use of $38,996 in the current period, compared to a use of $15,195 in the prior year. The change in operating cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2024 versus the six months ended June 30, 2023 was largely driven by accounts receivable, which was a use of $22,532 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the $6,584 provided in the six months ended June 30, 2023. Order execution and collection timing can impact accounts receivables in any given quarter.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $4,346 and $1,495, respectively. Capital expenditures in both periods primarily relate to general plant and operational improvements throughout the Company, as well as organic growth initiatives. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company divested the facility and land of its former joint venture in Magnolia, Texas and fixed assets associated with the Bridge Exit generating a cash inflow of $3,881. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 the Company received cash proceeds from the Chemtec and Ties divestitures totaling $7,706.

Cash Flow from Financing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2024 the Company had an increase in outstanding debt of $31,955 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023 in which the Company had a decrease in outstanding debt of $2,920. The increase in debt for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to an increase in cash used in operating activities due to higher working capital needs. The decrease in debt for the 2023 period was due to lower working capital as well as proceeds received from the Chemtec divestiture during the six month period.
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $15,000 of the Company’s common stock in open market transactions. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 the Company repurchased 70,080 shares of its stock for $1,707 under this program. Repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock may be made from time to time in the open market or in such other manner as determined by the Company. The timing of the repurchases and the actual amount repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of the Company’s shares, general market and economic conditions, and other factors. The stock repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
On August 5, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the modification of the Company’s stock repurchase program. The modifications include revising the repurchase program expiration date from February 2026 to February 2025. Additionally, the Board of Directors removed the restriction which previously limited repurchases to $5,000 in any trailing 12-month period. The authorized repurchase amount was unchanged at $15,000. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has repurchased stock of $4,021, leaving $10,979 of the original $15,000 authorized remaining. Any repurchases will continue to be subject to the Company’s liquidity, including availability of borrowings and covenant compliance under its revolving credit facility, and other capital needs of the business.
Financial Condition
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $4,021 in cash and cash equivalents and $41,301 of availability under its revolving credit facility, subject to covenant restrictions. As of June 30, 2024, approximately $3,319 of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were held in non-domestic bank accounts.
The Company’s principal uses of cash in recent years have been to fund its operations, including capital expenditures, repurchase of shares, acquisitions, funding the UPRR Settlement Agreement, and service indebtedness. The Company views its short and long-term liquidity as being dependent on its results of operations, changes in working capital needs, and its borrowing capacity.
On August 13, 2021, the Company, its domestic subsidiaries, and certain of its Canadian and United Kingdom subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, N.A., Citizens Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Bank of America, N.A., and BMO Harris Bank, National Association. The Credit Agreement, as amended, modifies the prior amended revolving credit facility, on terms more favorable to the Company and extends the maturity from April 30, 2024 to August 13, 2026. The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year, revolving credit facility that permits aggregate borrowings of the Borrowers up to $130,000 with a sublimit of the equivalent of $25,000 U.S. dollars that is available to the Canadian and United Kingdom borrowers in the aggregate. The Credit Agreement’s incremental loan feature permits the Company to increase the available commitments under the facility by up to an additional $50,000 subject to the Company’s receipt of increased commitments from existing or new lenders and the satisfaction of certain conditions. On August 12, 2022, the Company entered into a second amendment to its Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) which added an additional tier to the pricing grid and provided for the conversion from LIBOR-based to SOFR-based borrowings. For a discussion of the terms and availability of the credit facilities, please refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
To reduce the impact of interest rate changes on outstanding variable-rate debt, the Company amended and entered into SOFR-based interest rate swaps with notional values totaling $20,000 and $20,000, effective August 12, 2022 and August 31, 2022, respectively, at which point the agreements effectively converted a portion of the debt from variable to fixed-rate borrowings during the term of the swap contract.
Backlog
Although backlog is not necessarily indicative of future operating results, the following table provides the backlog by segment:

|  | Backlog
|  | June 30, 2024 |  | December 31, 2023 |  | June 30, 2023
Rail, Technologies, and Services |  | $ | 114,794 |  |  | $ | 84,418 |  |  | $ | 132,451 |
Infrastructure Solutions |  | 135,011 |  |  | 129,362 |  |  | 157,625 |
Total backlog |  | $ | 249,805 |  |  | $ | 213,780 |  |  | $ | 290,076 |

31

Table of Contents
While a considerable portion of the Company’s business is backlog driven, certain businesses, including the Global Friction Management business unit, are not driven by backlog and therefore have insignificant levels of backlog throughout the year. Backlog decreased $40,271 compared to the prior year quarter due to $6,931 from businesses that were divested and a discontinued product line. The remaining decline is associated with the timing of large orders for the Rail Products business, as well as a backlog decrease in Steel Products.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with US GAAP. The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. As a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company has concluded that there have been no significant changes to its critical accounting policies or estimates as described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In accordance with SEC rules, the Company provides descriptions of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this filing and reconciliations to the most closely related GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these measures provide useful perspective on underlying business trends and results and a supplemental measure of year-over-year results. The non-GAAP financial measures described below are used by management in making operating decisions, allocating financial resources and for business strategy purposes and may, therefore, also be useful to investors as they are a view of our business results through the eyes of management. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered by the user in place of the related GAAP financial measure, but rather as supplemental information to our business results. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies due to possible differences in method and in the items or events being adjusted.
References in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations to “organic sales” refer to sales calculated in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude divestiture, exit, and acquisition-related sales. Management evaluates the Company’s sales performance based on organic sales growth. Organic sales growth is a non-GAAP financial measure of sales growth (which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure), adjusted to exclude the effects of divestiture, exit, and acquisition-related sales from year-over-year comparisons. The Company believes this measure provides investors with a supplemental understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis. The Company reports organic sales growth at the consolidated and segment levels.
The Company defines new orders as a contractual agreement between the Company and a third-party in which the Company will, or has the ability to, satisfy the performance obligations of the promised products or services under the terms of the agreement. The Company defines backlog as contractual commitments to customers for which the Company’s performance obligations have not been met, including with respect to new orders and contracts for which the Company has not begun any performance. Management utilizes new orders and backlog to evaluate the health of the industries in which the Company operates, the Company’s current and future results of operations and financial prospects, and strategies for business development. The Company believes that new orders and backlog are useful to investors as supplemental metrics by which to measure the Company’s current performance and prospective results of operations and financial performance.
Non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP financial results and should only be considered in conjunction with the Company’s financial information that is presented in accordance with GAAP.
A reconciliation of organic sales growth to its most directly comparable respective US GAAP financial measure is presented below.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
L.B. Foster Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of June 30, 2024. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date such that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, or person performing such functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to our “internal control over financial reporting” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2024, and that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
