3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Inventories, net: Our consolidated inventories were stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, generally using a weighted-average cost method. Our net inventories include approximately $53.0 million of finished goods, $4.0 million of raw materials and $2.5 million of work-in-progress as of November 28, 2020, as compared to approximately $51.8 million of finished goods, $3.6 million of raw materials and $2.1 million of work-in-progress as of May 30, 2020.

At this time, we do not anticipate any material risks or uncertainties related to possible future inventory write-downs. Provisions for obsolete or slow moving inventories are recorded based upon regular analysis of stock rotation privileges, obsolescence, the exiting of certain markets and assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If future demand changes in the industry, or market conditions differ from management’s estimates, additional provisions may be necessary. Inventory reserves were approximately $5.7 million as of November 28, 2020 and $5.4 million as of May 30, 2020.

Revenue Recognition: Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods is transferred to our customers, which is simultaneous with the title transferring to the customer, in an amount that reflects the transaction price consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods. Control refers to the ability of the customer to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of, the remaining benefits from the goods. Our transaction price consideration is fixed, unless otherwise disclosed below as variable consideration. G enerally, our contracts require our customers to pay for goods after we deliver products to them. Terms are generally on open account, payable net 30 days in North America, and vary throughout Asia/Pacific, Europe and Latin America subject to customary credit checks.

The Company also sells products that are manufactured or assembled in our manufacturing facility. These products are either built to the customer’s prints/designs or are products that we stock in our warehouse to sell to any customer that places an order. The manufacturing business does not include a separate service bundled with the product sold or sold in addition to the product.

The Company recognizes services revenue when repair, installation or training is performed. Based on our analysis of services revenue under GAAP, there is an immaterial impact on the timing, amount or characterization of services revenue recognized by the Company. The services we provide are relatively short in duration and typically completed in one to two weeks. Therefore, at each reporting date, the amount of unbilled work performed is insignificant. The services revenue has consistently accounted for less than 5% of the Company’s total revenues and is expected to continue at that level.

We also record discounts taken and estimated returns based on our historical experience. Our products are often manufactured to meet the specific design needs of our customers’ applications. Our engineers work closely with customers to ensure that our products will meet their needs. Our customers are under no obligation to compensate us for designing the products we sell.

Loss Contingencies: We accrue a liability for loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When only a range of possible loss can be established, the most probable amount in the range is accrued. If no amount within this range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. If we determine that there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss may have been incurred, we will include a disclosure describing the contingency.

Intangible Assets: Intangible assets are initially recorded at their fair market values determined on quoted market prices in active markets, if available, or recognized valuation models. Intangible assets that have finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives either on a straight-line basis or over their projected future cash flows and are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment. Our intangible assets represent the fair value for trade name, customer relationships, non-compete agreements and technology acquired in connection with our acquisitions.

Income Taxes: We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. We regularly review our deferred tax assets for recoverability and determine the need for a valuation allowance based on a number of factors, including both positive and negative evidence. These factors include historical taxable income or loss, projected future taxable income or loss, the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences and the implementation of tax planning strategies. In circumstances where we, or any of our affiliates, have incurred three years of cumulative losses which constitute significant negative evidence, positive evidence of equal or greater significance is needed to overcome the negative evidence before a tax benefit is recognized for deductible temporary differences and loss carryforwards.

Accrued Liabilities: Accrued liabilities consisted of the following (in thousands):

|  | November 28, 2020 |  |  | May 30, 2020 |
Compensation and payroll taxes |  | $ | 4,816 |  |  | $ | 3,469 |
Accrued severance |  |  | 664 |  |  |  | 650 |
Professional fees |  |  | 873 |  |  |  | 471 |
Deferred revenue |  |  | 2,771 |  |  |  | 1,671 |
Other accrued expenses |  |  | 4,874 |  |  |  | 4,063 |
Accrued Liabilities |  | $ | 13,998 |  |  | $ | 10,324 |

4. REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company has a number of defined revenue streams across our reportable segments. For each of these revenue streams, all products are typically sold directly by the Company to the end customer. Distribution is the Company’s largest revenue stream. The distribution business does not include a separate service bundled with the product sold or sold on top of the product. Distribution typically includes products purchased from our suppliers, stocked in our warehouses and then sold to our customers. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods is transferred to our customers, which is simultaneous with the title transferring to the customer, in an amount that reflects the transaction price consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods. Control refers to the ability of the customer to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of, the remaining benefits from the goods. Our transaction price consideration is fixed, unless otherwise disclosed below as variable consideration. Generally, our contracts require our customers to pay for goods after we deliver products to them. Terms are generally on open account, payable net 30 days in North America, and vary throughout Asia/Pacific, Europe and Latin America subject to customary credit checks.

The Company also sells products that are manufactured or assembled in our manufacturing facility. These products can either be built to the customer’s prints/designs or are products that we stock in our warehouse to sell to any customer that places an order. The manufacturing business does not include a separate service bundled with the product sold or sold in addition to the product.

The Company recognizes services revenue when the repair, installation or training is performed. Based on our analysis of services revenue, ASU 2014-09 has an immaterial impact on the timing, amount or characterization of services revenue recognized by the Company. The services we provide are relatively short in duration and typically completed in one to two weeks. Therefore, at each reporting date, the amount of unbilled work performed is insignificant. The services revenue has consistently accounted for less than 5% of the Company’s total revenues and is expected to continue at that level.

Contracts with customers

A contract is an agreement between two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations. A revenue contract exists for us once a customer purchase order is received, reviewed and accepted. Prior to accepting a customer purchase order, we review the credit worthiness of the customer. Purchase orders are deemed to meet the collectability criterion once the customer’s credit is approved. Contract assets arise when the Company transfers a good or performs a service in advance of receiving consideration from the customer and contract liabilities arise when the Company receives consideration from its customer in advance of performance.

Contract Liabilities: Contract liabilities and revenue recognized were as follows (in thousands):

|  | May 30, 2020 |  |  | Additions |  |  | Revenue Recognized |  |  | November 28, 2020 |
Contract liabilities (deferred revenue) |  | $ | 1,671 |  |  | $ | 2,259 |  |  | $ | (1,159 | ) |  | $ | 2,771 |

The Company receives advance payments or deposits from our customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. Contract liabilities are included in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Performance obligations and satisfaction of performance obligation in the contract

Each accepted purchase order identifies a distinct good or service as the performance obligation. The goods are generally standard products we purchased from a supplier and stocked on our shelves. They can also be customized products purchased from a supplier or products that are customized or have value added to them in-house prior to shipping to the customer. Our contracts for customized products generally include termination provisions if a customer cancels its order. However, we recognize revenue at a point in time because the termination provisions do not require, upon cancelation, the customer to pay fees that are commensurate with the work performed. Each purchase order explicitly states the goods or service that we promise to transfer to the customer. The promises to the customer are limited only to those goods or service. The performance obligation is our promise to deliver both goods that were produced by the Company and resale of goods that we purchase from our suppliers. Our shipping and handling activities for destination shipments are performed prior to the customer obtaining control. As such, they are not a separate promised service. For shipping point, the Company is making the election under ASC 606-10-25-18B to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the goods. The goods we provide to our customers are distinct in that our customers benefit from the goods we sell them through use in their own processes. Our customers are generally not resellers, but rather businesses that incorporate our products into their processes from which they generate an economic benefit. The goods are also distinct in that each item sold to the customer is clearly identified on both the purchase order and resulting invoice. Each product we sell benefits the customer independently of the other products. Each item on each purchase order from the customer can be used by the customer unrelated to any other products we provide to the customer.

Determine the transaction price and variable consideration

The transaction price for each product is the amount invoiced to the customer. Each product on a purchase order is a separate performance obligation with an observable standalone selling price. The transaction price is a fixed price per unit, except for the variable consideration. The Company elects to exclude sales tax from the transaction price. With the exception of sale with right of return, variable consideration has been identified only in the form of customer early payment discounts, which are immaterial to the Company’s financial statements. As there is not a material impact on our financial statements, we will continue to account for customer discounts when they are taken by the customer and address further if they grow.

Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation

We recognize revenue when title transfers to the customer, at the shipping point for FOB shipping contracts and at the customer’s delivery location for FOB destination contracts. We believe that the transfer of title best represents when the customer obtains control of the goods. Prior to that date, we do not have right to payment, and the significant risks and rewards remain with us. The significant risks and rewards of ownership of the inventory transfer simultaneously with the transfer of title. The customer’s acceptance of the goods is based on objective measurements, not subjective.

Additional considerations

Sale with right of return:

Our return policy is available to customers in our terms and conditions found on our website www.rell.com. The policy varies by business unit. The Company allows returns with prior written authorization and we allow returns within 10 days of shipment for replacement parts.

The Company maintains a reserve for returns based on historical trends that covers all contracts and revenue streams using the expected value method because we have a large number of contracts with similar characteristics, which is considered variable consideration. The reserve for returns creates a refund liability on our balance sheet as a contra Trade Accounts Receivable as well as an asset in inventory. We value the inventory at cost due to there being minimal or no costs to the Company as we generally require the customer to pay freight and we typically do not have costs associated with activities such as relabeling or repackaging.

The reserve is considered immaterial at each balance sheet date for further consideration. Returns for defective product are typically covered by our supplier’s warranty, thus, returns for defective product are not factored into our reserve.

Warranties:

We offer warranties for the limited number of specific products we manufacture. Our warranty terms generally range from one to three years. We estimate the cost to perform under the warranty obligation and recognize this estimated cost at the time of the related product sale. Each quarter, we assess actual warranty costs incurred on a product-by-product basis and compare the warranty costs to our estimated warranty reserve. With respect to new products, estimates are based generally on knowledge of the products and warranty experience. See Note 7, Warranties, for further information regarding the impact of warranties.

Principal versus agent considerations:

Principal versus agent guidance was considered for customized products that are provided by our suppliers versus manufactured by the Company. The Company acts as the principal as we are responsible for satisfying the performance obligation. We have primary responsibility for fulfilling the contract, we have inventory risk prior to delivery to our customer, we establish prices, our consideration is not in the form of a commission and we bear the credit risk. The Company recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration.

See Note 11, Segment Reporting, for a disaggregation of revenue by reportable segment and geographic region, which represents how our chief operating decision maker reviews information internally to evaluate our financial performance and to make resource allocation and other decisions for the Company.

5. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets are initially recorded at their fair market values determined by quoted market prices in active markets, if available, or recognized valuation models. Intangible assets that have finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives and are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment.

Thereafter |  |  | 1,316 |
Total amortization expense |  | $ | 2,388 |

The weighted average number of years of amortization expense remaining is 13.3 years.

6. INVESTMENTS

As of November 28, 2020, we had $9.0 million invested in a CD which matures in less than twelve months. The fair value of the investment was equal to the face value of the CD.

As of May 30, 2020, we had $16.0 million invested in CDs which mature in less than twelve months. The fair value of these investments was equal to the face value of the CDs.

7. WARRANTIES

We offer warranties for the limited number of specific products we manufacture. Our warranty terms generally range from one to three years.

We estimate the cost to perform under the warranty obligation and recognize this estimated cost at the time of the related product sale. We record expense related to our warranty obligations as cost of sales in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Each quarter, we assess actual warranty costs incurred on a product-by-product basis and compare the warranty costs to our estimated warranty obligation. With respect to new products, estimates are based generally on knowledge of the products and warranty experience, if a sufficient history exists.

11

Warranty reserves are established for costs that are expected to be incurred after the sale and delivery of products under warranty. Warranty reserves are included in accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. The warranty reserves are determined based on known product failures, historical experience and other available evidence. Warranty reserves were approximately $0.4 million as of November 2 8, 20 20 and $0.5 million as of May 30, 2020.

8. LEASE OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS

The Company leases real and personal property in the normal course of business under various operating leases and financing leases. The Company has two types of operating leases: leases for facility space and leases for automobiles. Most of the leased facility space is for sales and general office use. Automobile leases are used throughout the Company. The financing lease is for our computer servers.

The gross amounts of assets and liabilities related to both operating and financing leases were as follows (in thousands):

Operating cash flows from financing leases |  | Operating activities |  |  | 84 |
Finance cash flows from financing leases |  | Financing activities |  |  | 91 |

9. INCOME TAXES

We recorded an income tax provision of $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the first six months of fiscal 2021 and the first six months of fiscal 2020, respectively. The effective income tax rate during the first six months of fiscal 2021 was a tax provision of (63.0)% as compared to a tax provision of (123.6)% during the first six months of fiscal 2020. The difference in rate during the first six months of fiscal 2021 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2020 reflects changes in our geographical distribution of income (loss). The (63.0)% effective income tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% as a result of our geographical distribution of income (loss) and the movement of the valuation allowance against our U.S. state and federal net deferred tax assets.

In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. Generally, years prior to fiscal 2015 are closed for examination under the statute of limitation for U.S. federal, U.S. state and local or non-U.S. tax jurisdictions. We are currently under examination in Thailand (fiscal 2008 through 2011). Our primary foreign tax jurisdictions are Germany and the Netherlands. We have tax years open in Germany beginning in fiscal 2015 and the Netherlands beginning in fiscal 2018.

We have historically determined that certain undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries, to the extent of cash available, will be repatriated to the U.S. The deferred tax liability on the outside basis difference is now primarily withholding tax on future dividend distributions. We have provided a deferred tax liability of less than $0.1 million as of both November 28, 2020 and as of May 30, 2020.

As of November 28, 2020 and as of May 30, 2020, our worldwide liability for uncertain tax positions related to continuing operations was $0.1 million, excluding interest and penalties. We record penalties and interest related to uncertain tax positions in the income tax expense line item within the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

13

The valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets that will more likely than not be realized was $12.5 million as of November 28, 2020. The valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets was $12.3 million as of May 30, 2020 as no material additional domestic federal and state net deferred tax assets were generated during the first six months of fiscal 2021 from losses in the U.S. jurisdiction. A full valuation allowance on the U.S. and state deferred tax assets will be maintained until sufficient positive evidence related to sources of future taxable income exists to support a reversal of the valuation allowance. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are increased, or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight may be given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth.

10. CALCULATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE

We have authorized 17,000,000 shares of common stock and 3,000,000 shares of Class B common stock. The Class B common stock has 10 votes per share and has transferability restrictions; however, Class B common stock may be converted into common stock on a share-for-share basis at any time. With respect to dividends and distributions, shares of common stock and Class B common stock rank equally and have the same rights, except that Class B common stock cash dividends are limited to 90% of the amount of Class A common stock cash dividends.

In accordance with ASC 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260”), our Class B common stock is considered a participating security requiring the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. The two-class computation method for each period reflects the cash dividends paid per share for each class of stock, plus the amount of allocated undistributed earnings per share computed using the participation percentage which reflects the dividend rights of each class of stock. Basic and diluted earnings per share were computed using the two-class method as prescribed in ASC 260. The shares of Class B common stock are considered to be participating convertible securities since the shares of Class B common stock are convertible on a share-for-share basis into shares of common stock and may participate in dividends with common stock according to a predetermined formula which is 90% of the amount of Class A common stock cash dividends.

The earnings per share (“EPS”) presented in our unaudited consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) were based on the following amounts (in thousands, except per share amounts):

|  | Three Months Ended |

12. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Litigation

On October 15, 2018, Varex Imaging Corporation (“Varex”) filed its original Complaint (Case No. 1:18-cv-06911) against Richardson Electronics Ltd. (“Richardson”) in the Northern District of Illinois, which was subsequently amended on November 27, 2018. Varex alleged counts of infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 6,456,692 and 6,519,317. Subsequently, on October 24, 2018, Varex filed a motion for preliminary injunction to stop the sale of Richardson’s ALTA750 TM product. Richardson filed an opposition to the preliminary injunction. In January 2019, the Court took evidence on the preliminary injunction issue. On September 30, 2019, the Court denied Varex’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction. On August 6, 2020, Varex amended its Complaint to add claims of trade secret misappropriation and Richardson moved to dismiss that Amended Complaint on September 9, 2020. Richardson believes the lawsuit to be without merit and a loss is not probable or estimable based on the information at the time the financial statements were issued.

Company Response to COVID-19

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the “COVID-19 outbreak”) and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally.

In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in global exposure. Thereafter, most U.S. states imposed “shelter in place” directives on their populations to stem the spread of COVID-19. Of specific interest to the Company, shelter in place directives were imposed in the states of Illinois, Massachusetts and South Carolina.

The shelter in place directives generally required the closure of businesses that did not provide essential functions. The Company was considered a critical supplier of products to healthcare and critical infrastructure businesses. Several of our largest customers mandated that we continue to supply parts so as not to disrupt the supply chain and their ability to serve critical industries. As such, the Company qualified as an “Essential Business”. Essential Businesses were allowed to continue to operate during shelter in place directives. We continued our manufacturing and distribution operations even when a shelter in place directive was issued. We limited the number of people in any one of our facilities by requiring only employees who could not perform their work remotely to physically work in a Company US-based facility. The Company advised all other employees that could perform their job functions remotely to do so. As such, the Company’s operations remained operational.

The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve. As such, the full magnitude that the pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity and future results of operations is uncertain. Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry and workforce. As the spread of COVID-19 continues, our ability to meet customer demands for products may be impaired or, similarly, our customers may experience adverse business consequences due to COVID-19. Reduced demand for products or impaired ability to meet customer demand (including disruptions at our transportation service providers or vendors) could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations and financial performance. There was a decline in PMT sales during the first three months of fiscal 2021 as well as a decline in Canvys and Healthcare sales during the first six months of fiscal 2021. Some of these declines in sales were related to the COVID-19 global pandemic. While we had some COVID-19 related component delays impacting new product development schedules, we did not experience a major interruption in our supply chain. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not presently able to estimate the effects of COVID-19 on its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity for fiscal year 2021.

Company Response to CARES Act

On March 27, 2020, Congress enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act to provide certain relief as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. The CARES Act includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferral of employer-side social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, increased limitations on qualified charitable contributions and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. As of November 28, 2020, the Company deferred $0.8 million of employer-side social security tax payments. The Company has estimated and recorded the overall effects of the CARES Act and does not anticipate a material change.

13. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists; therefore, an entity is required to develop its own assumptions.

As of November 28, 2020, we held an investment that was required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Our investment consisted of a CD where face value was equal to fair value.

Investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to the disclosure requirements of ASC 820 as of November 28, 2020 and May 30, 2020 were as follows (in thousands):

|  | Level 1 |
November 28, 2020 |  |  |  |
CD |  | $ | 9,000 |
Total |  | $ | 9,000 |
May 30, 2020 |  |  |  |
CDs |  | $ | 16,000 |
Total |  | $ | 16,000 |

14. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

On June 15, 2015, the Company entered into a lease agreement for the IMES facility with LDL, LLC. The Executive Vice President of IMES, Lee A. McIntyre III (former owner of IMES), has an ownership interest in LDL, LLC. The lease agreement has been extended as detailed in Exhibit 10.2, filed with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 30, 2020, filed August 3, 2020. The lease agreement provides for monthly payments over five years with total future minimum lease payments of $0.7 million. Rental expense related to this lease amounted to $0.1 million for the six months ended November 28, 2020 and for the six months ended November 30, 2019.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, consolidated net sales increased 7.0% compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2020. Sales for PMT increased 11.2%, sales for Canvys decreased 14.7% and sales for Healthcare increased 28.2%. The increase in PMT was mainly due to growth in various power grid tube product lines, strong growth from our Power and Microwave new technology partners in various applications including 5G infrastructure and increased revenue from our Semiconductor Wafer Fabrication customers buying engineered solutions. The decrease in Canvys was due to temporarily decreased customer demand globally related to COVID-19. The increase in Healthcare was due to a significant increase in demand for the ALTA 750DTM tubes coupled with increased equipment sales in Latin America.

During the first six months of fiscal 2021, consolidated net sales increased 1.2% compared to the first six months of fiscal 2020. Sales for PMT increased 5.0%, sales for Canvys decreased 11.4% and sales for Healthcare decreased 7.0%. The increase in PMT was mainly due to growth in the power grid tube business, strong growth in bookings and billings from our power conversion and RF and microwave components and continued growth in the Semiconductor Wafer Fab market. The decrease in Canvys was due to continuing struggles in the European market related to the COVID-19 impact on demand for equipment partially offset by strong sales in the North American market. The decrease in Healthcare was due to the impact of the global pandemic as well as ongoing economic issues in Latin America in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

Other Income/Expense

Other income/expense was expense of $0.1 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2021, compared to expense of $0.1 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. Other income/expense during the second quarter of fiscal 2021 included $0.1 million of foreign exchange losses. Other income/expense during the second quarter of fiscal 2020 included $0.1 million of investment/interest income offset by $0.2 million of foreign exchange losses. Our foreign exchange gains and losses are primarily due to the translation of U.S. dollars held in non-U.S. entities. We currently do not utilize derivative instruments to manage our exposure to foreign currency.

Other income/expense was expense of $0.5 million during the first six months of fiscal 2021, compared to income of $0.2 million during the first six months of fiscal 2020.

The effective income tax rate during the second quarter of fiscal 2021 was a tax provision of 7.1% as compared to a tax provision of (14.8)% during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The difference in rate during the second quarter of fiscal 2021 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2020 reflects changes in our geographical distribution of income (loss). The 7.1% effective income tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% as a result of our geographical distribution of income (loss) and the movement of the valuation allowance against our U.S. state and federal net deferred tax assets.

We recorded an income tax provision of $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the first six months of fiscal 2021 and the first six months of fiscal 2020, respectively. The effective income tax rate during the first six months of fiscal 2021 was a tax provision of (63.0)% as compared to a tax provision of (123.6)% during the first six months of fiscal 2020. The difference in rate during the first six months of fiscal 2021 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2020 reflects changes in our geographical distribution of income (loss). The (63.0)% effective income tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% as a result of our geographical distribution of income (loss) and the movement of the valuation allowance against our U.S. state and federal net deferred tax assets.

In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. Generally, years prior to fiscal 2015 are closed for examination under the statute of limitation for U.S. federal, U.S. state and local or non-U.S. tax jurisdictions. We are currently under examination in Thailand (fiscal 2008 through 2011). Our primary foreign tax jurisdictions are Germany and the Netherlands. We have tax years open in Germany beginning in fiscal 2015 and the Netherlands beginning in fiscal 2018.

The Company continues to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on its supply chain, manufacturing and distribution operations, customers and employees, as well as the U.S. economy in general. However, due to the uncertainty as to when governmental restrictions on business will be fully lifted, the impact thereof, and the duration and widespread nature of the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company cannot currently predict the long-term impact on its operations and financial results. The uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 outbreak include potential adverse effects on the overall economy, the Company’s supply chain, transportation services, employees and customers. The COVID-19 outbreak could adversely affect the Company’s revenues, earnings, liquidity and cash flows and may require significant actions in response, including expense reductions. Conditions surrounding COVID-19 change rapidly and additional impacts of which the Company is not currently aware may arise. Based on past performance and current expectations, w e believe that the existing sources of liquidity, including current cash, will provide sufficient resources to meet known capital requirements and working capital needs through the next twelve months.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

The cash provided by (used in) operating activities primarily resulted from net income (loss) adjusted for non-cash items and changes in our operating assets and liabilities.

Operating activities provided $1.1 million of cash during the first six months of fiscal 2021. We had a net loss of $0.5 million during the first six months of fiscal 2021, which included non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million associated with the issuance of stock option and restricted stock awards, $0.5 million for inventory reserve provisions and depreciation and amortization expense of $1.7 million associated with our property and equipment as well as amortization of our intangible assets. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities resulted in a use of cash of $1.0 million during the first six months of fiscal 2021, net of foreign currency exchange gains and losses, included a decrease of $2.5 million in accounts payable, an increase in inventory of $1.0 million and an increase in accounts receivable of $0.2 million, partially offset by an increase in accrued liabilities of $3.4 million. The decrease in our accounts payable was due to timing of payments for some of our larger vendors for both inventory and services. The majority of the inventory increase was to support the electron tube and semi-conductor wafer fab equipment business. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to the sales increase compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in accrued liabilities is mainly due to timing of employee compensation and payroll tax payments as well as the timing of other payments.

Operating activities used $1.4 million of cash during the first six months of fiscal 2020. We had a net loss of $0.5 million during the first six months of fiscal 2020, which included non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million associated with the issuance of stock option and restricted stock awards, $0.3 million for inventory reserve provisions and depreciation and amortization expense of $1.7 million associated with our property and equipment as well as amortization of our intangible assets.

The decrease in our accounts payable was due to timing of payments for some of our larger vendors for both inventory and services. The majority of the inventory increase was to support the continued growth of our electron tube and RF and Power Technologies groups.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

The cash flow provided by and used in investing activities consisted primarily of purchases of investments and capital expenditures partially offset by proceeds from the maturities of investments.

Cash provided by investing activities of $5.7 million during the first six months of fiscal 2021 included proceeds from the maturities of investments of $16.0 million, partially offset by purchases of investments of $9.0 million and $1.3 million in capital expenditures. Capital expenditures related primarily to capital used for our Healthcare business and our IT system.

Cash used in investing activities of $5.8 million during the first six months of fiscal 2020 included purchases of investments of $13.0 million and $0.8 million in capital expenditures, partially offset by proceeds from the maturities of investments of $8.0 million. Capital expenditures related primarily to capital used for our IT system and Healthcare and LaFox manufacturing businesses.

Our purchases of investments consisted of CDs. Purchasing of future investments may vary from period to period due to interest and foreign currency exchange rates.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

The cash flow used in financing activities consisted primarily of cash dividends paid.

Cash used in financing activities of $1.7 million during the first six months of fiscal 2021 primarily resulted from cash used to pay dividends.

Cash used in financing activities of $1.6 million during the first six months of fiscal 2020 primarily resulted from cash used to pay dividends.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Risk Management and Market Sensitive Financial Instruments

We are exposed to many different market risks with the various industries we serve. The primary financial risk we are exposed to is foreign currency exchange, as certain operations, assets and liabilities of ours are denominated in foreign currencies. We manage these risks through normal operating and financing activities.

The interpretation and analysis of these disclosures should not be considered in isolation since such variances in exchange rates would likely influence other economic factors. Such factors, which are not readily quantifiable, would likely also affect our operations. Additional disclosure regarding various market risks are set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 30, 2020, filed August 3, 2020.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On October 15, 2018, Varex Imaging Corporation (“Varex”) filed its original Complaint (Case No. 1:18-cv-06911) against Richardson Electronics Ltd. (“Richardson”) in the Northern District of Illinois, which was subsequently amended on November 27, 2018. Varex alleged counts of infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 6,456,692 and 6,519,317. Subsequently, on October 24, 2018, Varex filed a motion for preliminary injunction to stop the sale of Richardson’s ALTA750 TM product. Richardson filed an opposition to the preliminary injunction. In January 2019, the Court took evidence on the preliminary injunction issue. On September 30, 2019, the Court denied Varex’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction. On August 6, 2020, Varex amended its Complaint to add claims of trade secret misappropriation and Richardson moved to dismiss that Amended Complaint on September 9, 2020. Richardson believes the lawsuit to be without merit and a loss is not probable or estimable based on the information at the time the financial statements were issued.
