 Item 1. Business

 Twin Disc, Incorporated ("Twin Disc", or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the state of Wisconsin in 1918. Twin Disc designs, manufactures and sells marine and heavy duty off highway power transmission equipment. The Company has manufacturing locations in the United States, Belgium, Finland, Italy, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. In addition to these countries, it has distribution locations in Singapore, China, Australia, New Zealand, and Japan. Products offered include: marine transmissions, azimuth drives, surface drives, propellers and boat management systems as well as power-shift transmissions, hydraulic torque converters, power take-offs, industrial clutches and controls systems. The Company sells its products to customers primarily in the pleasure craft, commercial and military marine markets, as well as in the energy and natural resources, government and industrial markets. The Company's worldwide sales to both domestic and foreign customers are transacted through a direct sales force and a distributor network. The products described above have accounted for more than 90% of revenues in each of the last three fiscal years.

 On May 31, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Katsa Oy ("Katsa"). Based in Finland, Katsa is a European manufacturer of custom-designed, high-quality power transmission components and gearboxes for industrial and marine end-markets for a broad range of end market applications. Katsa also provides a wide range of after-sales services, including spare part deliveries, reverse engineering, modeling, and gearbox refurbishment.

 Most of the Company's products are machined from cast iron, forgings, cast aluminum and bar steel which generally are available from multiple sources and which are believed to be in adequate supply.

 The Company has applied for patents in both the United States and certain foreign countries on inventions made in the course of its development work for which commercial applications are considered probable. The Company regards its patents collectively as important but does not consider its business dependent upon any one of such patents.

 The business is not considered to be seasonal except to the extent that employee vacations and plant shutdowns, particularly in Europe, occur mainly in the months of July and August, curtailing production during that period.

 The Company's products receive direct widespread competition, including from divisions of other larger independent manufacturers. The Company also competes for business with parts manufacturing divisions of some of its major customers. The primary competitive factors for the Company's products are design, technology, performance, price, service and availability. The Company's top ten customers accounted for approximately 43% and 47% of the Company's consolidated net sales during the years ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively. No individual customer accounted for 10% of consolidated net sales in fiscal year 2024.

 Unfilled open orders for the next six months of $133.7 million, including the impact of the acquisition of Katsa, at June 30, 2024 compares to $119.2 million at June 30, 2023. Since orders are subject to cancellation and rescheduling by the customer, the six month order backlog is considered more representative of operating conditions than total backlog. However, as procurement and manufacturing "lead times" change, the backlog will increase or decrease, and thus it does not necessarily provide a valid indicator of the shipping rate. Cancellations are generally the result of rescheduling activity and do not represent a material change in total backlog.

 Management recognizes that there are attendant risks that foreign governments may place restrictions on dividend payments and other movements of money, but these risks are considered low due to the relatively low investment within individual countries that have currency movement restrictions. No material portion of the Company's business is subject to renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts at the election of the U.S. government.

 Engineering and development costs include research and development expenses for new product development and major improvements to existing products, and other costs for ongoing efforts to refine existing products. Research and development costs charged to operations totaled $2.6 million and $2.5 million in fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively. Total engineering and development costs were $9.8 million and $8.7 million in fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 Compliance with federal, state and local provisions regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, is not anticipated to have a material effect on capital expenditures, earnings or the competitive position of the Company.

 The number of persons employed by the Company at June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 was 910, including the impact of the acquisition of Katsa, and 739, respectively. The Company believes that its continued success is a direct result of its talent. As such, the Company strives to be an employer of choice in every community in which it operates. It does this by fostering a fair, respectful, inclusive and safe work environment and culture shaped with its core values of customer focus, integrity, accountability, teamwork, and innovation.

 A summary of financial data by segment, geographic area, and classes of products that accounted for more than 10% of consolidated sales revenues for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 appears in Note K, Business Segments and Foreign Operations, to the consolidated financial statements.

 The Company's website address is www.twindisc.com. The Company makes available free of charge (other than an investor ' s own internet access charges) through its website the Company ' s Annual Report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports, as soon as reasonably practicable after it electronically files such material with, or furnishes such material to, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The SEC maintains an internet site (www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers, such as the Company, that file electronically with the SEC. In addition, the Company makes available, through its website, important corporate governance materials. This information is also available from the Company upon request. The Company is not including the information contained on or available through its website as a part of, or incorporating such information by reference to, this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 Item 1A. Risk Factors

 The Company's business involves various risk factors. The following information about these risks should be considered carefully together with other information contained in this report. The risks described below are not the only risks the Company faces. Additional risks not currently known, deemed immaterial or that could apply to any issuer may also result in adverse results for the Company's business.

 As a global Company, the Company is subject to currency fluctuations and a significant movement between the U.S. dollar and the euro exchange rate, in particular, could have an adverse effect on its profitability. Although the Company's financial results are reported in U.S. dollars, a significant portion of its sales and operating costs are realized in euros and other foreign currencies. The Company's profitability is affected by movements of the U.S. dollar against the euro and the other currencies in which it generates revenues and incurs expenses. Significant long-term fluctuations in relative currency values, in particular a significant change in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the euro, could have an adverse effect on the Company's profitability and financial condition.

 The Company could be materially adversely affected by the effects of health pandemics or epidemics in regions where we or third parties on which we rely have business operations. In March 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") declared that a new strain of coronavirus that originated in Wuhan, China, and had rapidly spread around the world ("COVID-19") was a pandemic that posed significant risk to the international community. This outbreak contributed to shelter-in-place policies, unexpected factory closures, supply chain disruptions, and market volatility causing substantial declines in market capitalization, and occurring in the midst of an already challenging economic environment in some of our markets, most notably the oil and gas market. As a result of the outbreak, starting in March 2020 and intermittently through June 30, 2023, the Company suspended or reduced its operations, in whole or in part, in several of its locations. The Company's businesses operate in market segments impacted by COVID-19. Operating during a global pandemic has exposed the Company to a number of material risks, including diminished demand for our products and our customers' products, suspensions in the operations of our and our suppliers' manufacturing facilities, maintenance of appropriate labor levels, our ability to ship products to our customers, interruptions in our supply chains and distribution systems, access to capital and potential increases to the cost of capital, collection of trade receivables in accordance with their terms and potential further impairment of long-lived assets; all of which, in the aggregate, have had an adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Management continues to monitor the global situation and its effect on financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry and workforce.

 Certain of the Company ' s products are directly or indirectly used in oil exploration and oil drilling and are thus dependent upon the strength of those markets and oil prices. In recent years, the Company has seen significant variations in the sales of its products that are used in oil and energy related markets. The variability in these markets has been defined by the change in oil prices and the global demand for oil. Significant decreases in oil prices and reduced demand for oil and capital investment in the oil and energy markets adversely affect the sales of these products and the Company's profitability. The cyclical nature of the global oil and gas market presents the ongoing possibility of a severe cutback in demand, which would create a significant adverse effect on the sales of these products and ultimately on the Company's profitability.

 Many of the Company ' s product markets are cyclical in nature or are otherwise sensitive to volatile or unpredictable factors. A downturn or weakness in overall economic activity or fluctuations in those other factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company ' s overall financial performance. Historically, sales of many of the products that the Company manufactures and sells have been subject to cyclical variations caused by changes in general economic conditions and other factors. In particular, the Company sells its products to customers primarily in the pleasure craft, commercial and military marine markets, as well as in the energy and natural resources, government and industrial markets. The demand for the products may be impacted by the strength of the economy generally, governmental spending and appropriations, including security and defense outlays, fuel prices, interest rates, as well as many other factors. Adverse economic and other conditions may cause the Company's customers to forego or otherwise postpone purchases in favor of repairing existing equipment.

 In the event of an increase in the global demand for steel, the Company could be adversely affected if it experiences shortages of raw castings and forgings used in the manufacturing of its products. With the continued advancement of certain developing economies, in particular China and India, the global demand for steel has risen significantly in recent years. The Company selects its suppliers based on a number of criteria, and the Company expects that they will be able to support its needs. However, there can be no assurance that a significant increase in demand, capacity constraints or other issues experienced by the Company's suppliers will not result in shortages or delays in their supply of raw materials to the Company. If the Company were to experience a significant or prolonged shortage of critical components from any of its suppliers, particularly those who are sole sources, and could not procure the components from other sources, the Company would be unable to meet its production schedules for some of its key products and would miss product delivery dates which would adversely affect its sales, profitability and relationships with its customers.

 The Company continues to face the prospect of increasing commodity costs, including steel, other raw materials and energy that could have an adverse effect on future profitability. In addition, developments in tariff regulations in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions have resulted in uncertainty regarding international trade policies and future commodity prices, contributing to an increased risk of higher commodity costs that could have an adverse impact on the Company ' s profitability, financial condition and results of operations. The Company's profitability is dependent, in part, on commodity costs. To date, the Company has been successful with offsetting the effects of increased commodity costs through cost reduction programs and pricing actions. However, if material prices were to continue to increase at a rate that could not be recouped through product pricing or cost reductions, it could potentially have an adverse effect on the Company's future profitability.

 The Company anticipates that additional tariffs or trade restrictions resulting from "trade wars" could result in an increase in its cost of sales and there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to pass any of the increases in raw material costs directly resulting from additional tariffs to its customers. Given that it procures many of the raw materials that it uses to create its products directly or indirectly from outside of the U.S., the imposition of tariffs and other potential changes in U.S. trade policy could increase the cost or limit the availability of such raw materials, which could hurt its competitive position and adversely impact its business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Company sells a significant proportion of its products to customers outside of the U.S. Retaliatory actions by other countries could result in increases in the price of its products, which could limit demand for such products, hurt its global competitive position and have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

 If the Company were to lose business with any key customers, the Company ' s business would be adversely affected. Although no individual customer accounted for 10% or more of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2024, deterioration of a business relationship with one or more of the Company's significant customers would cause its sales and profitability to be adversely affected. Although the Company's accounts receivable are dispersed among a large customer base, a significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of its largest customers could have a material adverse impact on the collectability of its accounts receivable and future operating results.

 The termination of relationships with the Company ' s suppliers, or the inability of such suppliers to perform, could disrupt its business and have an adverse effect on its ability to manufacture and deliver products. The Company relies on raw materials, component parts, and services supplied by outside third parties. If a supplier of significant raw materials, component parts or services were to terminate its relationship with the Company, or otherwise cease supplying raw materials, component parts, or services consistent with past practice, the Company's ability to meet its obligations to its customers may be affected. Such a disruption with respect to numerous products, or with respect to a few significant products, could have an adverse effect on the Company's profitability and financial condition.

 A significant design, manufacturing or supplier quality issue could result in recalls or other actions by the Company that could adversely affect profitability. As a manufacturer of highly engineered products, the performance, reliability and productivity of the Company's products are some of its competitive advantages. While the Company prides itself on implementing procedures to ensure the quality and performance of its products and suppliers, a significant quality or product issue, whether due to design, performance, manufacturing or supplier quality issue, could lead to warranty actions, scrapping of raw materials, finished goods or returned products, the deterioration in a customer relationship, or other action that could adversely affect warranty and quality costs, future sales and profitability.

 The Company faces risks associated with its international sales and operations that could adversely affect its business, results of operations or financial condition. Sales to customers outside the United States approximated 73% of the Company's consolidated net sales for fiscal 2024. The Company has international manufacturing operations in Belgium, Finland, Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland. In addition, the Company has international distribution operations in Australia, New Zealand, Belgium, China, Italy, Japan, and Singapore. The Company's international sales and operations are subject to a number of risks, including:

 political and social attitudes, laws, rules, regulations, and policies within countries that favor local companies over US companies, including government-supported efforts to promote local competitors;

 currency exchange rate fluctuations;

 global trade issues and uncertainties with respect to trade policies, including tariffs, trade sanctions, and international trade disputes, and the ability to obtain required import and export licenses;

 differing legal systems and standards of trade which may not honor our intellectual property rights, and which may place us at a competitive disadvantage;

 multiple conflicting and changing governmental laws and regulations, including varying labor laws and tax regulations;

 reliance on various information systems and information technology to conduct our business, making us vulnerable to cyberattacks by third parties or breaches due to employee error, misuse, or other causes, that could result in business disruptions, loss of or damage to our intellectual property and confidential information (and that of our customers and other business partners), reputational harm, transaction errors, processing inefficiencies, or other adverse consequences;

 regional or global economic downturns or recessions, varying foreign government support, unstable political environments, and other changes in foreign economic conditions;

 difficulties in managing a global enterprise, including staffing, managing distributors and representatives, and repatriating cash and dividends;

 longer sales cycles and difficulties in collecting accounts receivable; and

 different customs and ways of doing business.

 To date, our operations have not been materially adversely affected by global conflicts including Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the current Israel/Palestine conflict, or the recent attacks on merchant ships in the Red Sea. However, further escalation of these or other conflicts could result in, among other negative consequences, a disruption to the global economy and supply chain leading to a shortage of parts, materials and services needed to manufacture and timely deliver our products. Any such shortages could negatively impact our suppliers' ability to meet our demand requirements and, in turn, our ability to satisfy our customer demand. These challenges, together with other challenges associated with operating an international business, may adversely affect our ability to recognize revenue and our other operating results.

 A material disruption at the Company ' s manufacturing facility in Racine, Wisconsin could adversely affect its ability to generate sales and meet customer demand. The majority of the Company's manufacturing, based on fiscal 2024 sales, came from its facility in Racine, Wisconsin. If operations at this facility were to be disrupted as a result of significant equipment failures, natural disasters, power outages, fires, explosions, adverse weather conditions, labor force disruptions or other reasons, the Company's business and results of operations could be adversely affected. Interruptions in production would increase costs and reduce sales. Any interruption in production capability could require the Company to make substantial capital expenditures to remedy the situation, which could negatively affect its profitability and financial condition. The Company maintains property damage insurance which it believes is adequate to reconstruct its facilities and equipment, as well as business interruption insurance to mitigate losses resulting from any production interruption or shutdown caused by an insured loss. However, any recovery under this insurance policy may not offset the lost sales or increased costs that may be experienced during the disruption of operations. Lost sales may not be recoverable under the policy and long-term business disruptions could result in a loss of customers. If this were to occur, future sales levels and costs of doing business, and therefore profitability, could be adversely affected.

 The ability to service the requirements of debt depends on the ability to generate cash and/or refinance its indebtedness as it becomes due, and depends on many factors, some of which are beyond the Company ' s control. The Company entered into a credit agreement on June 29, 2018. The Company's ability to make payments on its indebtedness, including those under the credit agreement, and to fund planned capital expenditures, research and development efforts and other corporate expenses depends on the Company's future operating performance and on economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors. Many of these factors are beyond its control. The Company cannot be certain that its business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, or operating improvements will be realized or that future borrowings will be available to it in an amount sufficient to enable it to repay its indebtedness or to fund its other operating requirements. Significant delays in its planned capital expenditures may materially and adversely affect the Company's future revenue prospects.

 Any failure to meet debt obligations and financial covenants, and maintain adequate asset-based borrowing capacity could adversely affect the Company ' s business and financial condition. The Company's three-year revolving credit facility expiring April 2027 is secured by certain personal property assets such as accounts receivable, inventory, and machinery and equipment. Under this agreement, the Company's borrowing capacity is based on the eligible balances of these assets and it is required to maintain sufficient asset levels at all times to secure its outstanding borrowings. The Company is also required to comply with a total funded debt to EBITDA ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and a minimum tangible net worth. If the Company does not meet these financial covenants as specified under the agreement, the Company may require forbearance or relief from its financial covenant violations from its senior lender or be required to arrange alternative financing. Failure to obtain relief from financial covenant violations or to obtain alternative financing, if necessary, would have a material adverse impact on the Company.

 As of June 30, 2024, the Company had a borrowing capacity that exceeded its outstanding loan balance (see Note H, Debt, of the notes to the consolidated financial statements). Based on its annual financial plan, the Company believes that it will generate sufficient cash flow levels throughout fiscal 2025 to meet the required financial covenants under the agreements. However, as with all forward-looking information, there can be no assurance that the Company will achieve the planned results in future periods.

 While the Company has obtained forgiveness of its Paycheck Protection Program Loan ( " PPP loan "), it remains subject to audit under the program ' s rules and any resulting adverse audit findings of non-compliance can result in the repayment of a portion or all of the PPP loan. On April 17, 2020 the Company received proceeds of $8.2 million from a loan under the PPP of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act"), which it has used to retain employees, maintain payroll and make lease and utility payments. The Company accounted for the full proceeds as a loan. It obtained formal forgiveness of the full amount of the loan on June 16, 2021, and accounted for the forgiveness as income from extinguishment of loan in its statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2021.

 While the loan has been formally forgiven, under the terms of the PPP Loan, the Company remains subject to an audit by the Small Business Administration ("SBA") for a period of six years after forgiveness. The audit is intended to confirm the Company's eligibility for the PPP loan and the appropriateness of the PPP loan forgiveness. The Company is aware of the requirements of the PPP Loan and believes it is within the eligibility threshold and has used the loan proceeds in accordance with PPP loan forgiveness requirements. It has retained all necessary documentation in support of its eligibility, including gross receipts calculations, supporting payroll expenses and related information. However, no assurance is provided that the Company will satisfy fully all the requirements of an audit. If despite the Company's actions and certification that it satisfied all eligibility requirements for the PPP loan, it is later determined that it violated applicable laws or was otherwise ineligible to receive the PPP loan, it may be required to repay the PPP loan in its entirety in a lump sum or be subject to additional penalties, which could result in adverse publicity and damage to the Company's reputation. If these events were to transpire, they could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

 The Company has made certain assumptions relating to the acquisition of Katsa in its forecasts that may prove to be materially inaccurate. The integration of Katsa into the Company's business processes is ongoing. While the integration is currently proceeding as planned, the Company has made certain longer term assumptions relating to the forecast level of synergies and associated costs of the acquisition of Katsa that may be inaccurate based on the information that was available to the Company or as a result of the failure to realize the expected benefits of the acquisition, higher than expected integration costs, unknown liabilities and global economic and business conditions that may adversely affect the combined Company following the completion of the acquisition. The combination of the businesses will require significant management attention, and the Company may incur significant additional integration costs because of integration difficulties and other challenges.

 As a result of the acquisition of Katsa, the Company carries a significant amount of intangible assets, but it may never fully realize the full value of these assets. The full accounting for the acquisition, including the purchase price allocation, is pending final review by the Company. The Company recorded intangible assets, including customer relationships, technology know-how, trade name, and computer software.

 Amortizable intangible assets are periodically reviewed for possible impairment whenever there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Impairment may result from, among other things, (i) a decrease in its expected net earnings; (ii) adverse equity market conditions; (iii) a decline in current market multiples; (iv) a decline in its common stock price; (v) a significant adverse change in legal factors or business climates; (vi) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; (vii) heightened competition; (viii) strategic decisions made in response to economic or competitive conditions; or (ix) a more-likely-than-not expectation that a reporting unit or a significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or disposed of. In the event that it determines that events or circumstances exist that indicate that the carrying value of identifiable intangible assets may no longer be recoverable, it might have to recognize a non-cash impairment of identifiable intangible assets, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

 The Company may experience negative or unforeseen tax consequences. The Company reviews the probability of the realization of its net deferred tax assets each period based on forecasts of taxable income in both the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. This review uses historical results, projected future operating results based upon approved business plans, eligible carryforward periods, tax planning opportunities and other relevant considerations. Adverse changes in the profitability and financial outlook in the U.S. or foreign jurisdictions may require the creation of a valuation allowance to reduce the Company's net deferred tax assets. Such changes could result in material non-cash expenses in the period in which the changes are made and could have a material adverse impact on the Company's results of operations and financial condition. At June 30, 2024 and 2023, the allowance totaled $24.0 million and $22.3 million, respectively.

 Taxing authority challenges and changes to tax laws may lead to tax payments exceeding current reserves. The Company is subject to ongoing tax examinations in various jurisdictions. As a result, the Company may record incremental tax expense based on expected outcomes of such matters. In addition, the Company may adjust previously reported tax reserves based on expected results of these examinations. Such adjustments could result in an increase or decrease to the Company's effective tax rate.

 Future changes in tax law in the United States or the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates and income tax holidays could have a material impact on the Company's effective tax rate, foreign rate differential, future income tax expense and cash flows.

 Security breaches and other disruptions could compromise the Company ' s information system and expose the Company to liabilities, which would cause its business and reputation to suffer. In the ordinary course of its business, the Company collects and stores sensitive data, including its proprietary business information and that of its customers, suppliers and business partners, as well as personally identifiable information of its customers and employees, in its internal and external data centers, cloud services and on its networks. The secure processing, maintenance and transmission of this information is critical to the Company's operations and business strategy. Despite the Company's security measures, its information technology and infrastructure, and that of its partners, may be vulnerable to malicious attacks or breaches due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions, including as a result of rollouts of new systems. Any such breach or operational failure would compromise the Company's networks and/or that of its partners and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings and/or regulatory fines or penalties, including, among others, under the European Union's General Data Privacy Regulation, disrupt the Company's operations, damage its reputation and/or cause a loss of confidence in the Company's products and services, which could adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.

 Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

 None.

 Item 1C. Cybersecurity

 The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for exercising oversight of management's identification and management, and planning for, risks from cybersecurity threats.

 The Company has developed and is continuing to develop processes, that seek to assess, identify, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats to the information technology systems and information it uses or will use, transmit, receive, and maintain. The processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks for cybersecurity threats include the Company's efforts to identify the relevant assets that could be affected, determine possible threat sources and threat events, assess threats based on their potential likelihood and impact, and identify controls that are in place or necessary to manage and/or mitigate such risks.

 The Company has not experienced any material cybersecurity incidents, and the expenses incurred from any security incidents have been immaterial. However, as discussed under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report, cybersecurity threats pose multiple and potentially material risks to the Company, including potentially to the Company's results of operations and financial condition. The Company relies extensively on information technology systems and could face cybersecurity risk. As cybersecurity threats become more frequent, sophisticated, and coordinated, it is reasonably likely that the Company may expend greater resources to continue to modify and enhance protective measures against such security risks.

 Item 2. Properties

 Fiscal 2024 Compared to Fiscal 2023

 Net Sales

 The Katsa acquisition closed on May 31, 2024, and the Company reports its operations on a one-month lag. Therefore, only the opening balance sheet and a bargain purchase gain impact the fiscal year 2024 results.

 Net sales for fiscal 2024 increased 6.6%, or $18.2 million, to $295.1 million from $277.0 million in fiscal 2023. The Company continued to experience stable or growing demand across most of the markets served, following the unfavorable impact of the COVID-19 crisis on the Company's global markets in fiscal 2020 and 2021. With improving operation execution through the year, including a focus on finding solutions to solve supply chain disruptions, the Company was able to deliver sequential revenue improvements through the four quarters of fiscal 2024. Currency translation had a favorable impact on fiscal 2024 sales compared to the prior year totaling $3.7 million, primarily due to the strengthening of the euro against the U.S. dollar.

 Sales for our manufacturing segment increased 2.8%, or $6.8 million, versus the same period last year. The largest improvement was seen at the Company's Veth propulsion operation in the Netherlands, which experienced a 39.1% increase in sales compared to fiscal 2023, including a $2.0 million favorable currency translation impact. The primary driver for this increase was growing demand for the Company's innovative propulsion solutions around the globe, along with improving supply chain and operational performance. The Company's domestic manufacturing operation experienced a 4.7% decrease in sales in fiscal 2024, driven by some softening aftermarket demand in the North American energy market and weaker industrial demand related to the North American housing and construction markets. The Company's Italian manufacturing operations reported a 40.5% decrease in sales from fiscal 2023, primarily due to the sale of the BCS business during the current fiscal year. The Company's Belgian manufacturing operation saw a 17.9% increase in sales from fiscal 2023 with a favorable translation effect and improved delivery performance driven by operational and supply chain execution. The Company's Swiss manufacturing operation, which supplies customized propellers for the global mega yacht and patrol boat markets, experienced a 4.8% increase in sales compared to fiscal 2023, primarily due to a recovering European marine market.

 Sales for our distribution segment were up 22.1%, or $27.0 million, compared to fiscal 2023, with improving global demand and product delivery from the manufacturing operations. The Company's Asian distribution operations in Singapore, China and Japan experienced a 31.4% increase in sales on improving deliveries for energy related products in China and strong commercial marine demand in the region. The Company's North America distribution operation saw a 6.9% increase on strong domestic demand for marine products from the European operations. The Company's European distribution operation saw a significant increase (25.2%) on strong demand, a favorable currency impact and improved supply of product. The Company's distribution operation in Australia, which provides boat accessories, propulsion and marine transmission systems for the pleasure craft market, saw an increase in revenue of 4.8%, primarily due to continued strong demand for pleasure craft products in the region.

 Net sales for the Company's marine transmission and propulsion systems were up 16.2% in fiscal 2024 compared to the prior fiscal year. This increase reflects generally strong market conditions, continued global growth of the Veth product and a general easing of supply chain constraints during the fiscal year. In the off-highway transmission market, the year-over-year increase of 7.5% can be attributed primarily to strength in North American aftermarket product sales for the oil and gas industry, historically high demand for the Company's ARFF (airport rescue and firefighting) transmission and sales of the Company's pressure pumping transmission systems into China. The decrease experienced in the Company's industrial products of 13.8% was a function of weaker demand in the North American construction and recycling markets.

 Geographically, sales to the U.S. and Canada declined 21% in fiscal 2024 compared to fiscal 2023, representing 28% of consolidated sales for fiscal 2024 compared to 36% in fiscal 2023. The decrease is primarily due to the weaker domestic demand for oil and gas related units, along with a decline in industrial product demand. Sales into the Asia Pacific market improved 27% compared to fiscal 2023 and represented approximately 28% of sales in fiscal 2024, compared to 25% in fiscal 2023. The increase in fiscal 2024 reflects increased demand for commercial marine and patrol craft related products, a continued strong Australian pleasure craft market and stable demand for the Company's oil and gas transmissions by the Chinese market. Sales into the European market improved approximately 17% from fiscal 2023 levels while accounting for 33% of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2024 compared to 33% of net sales in fiscal 2023. The region enjoyed strong demand for the Company's Veth propulsion products, driving much of the fiscal 2024 growth. See Note J, Business Segments and Foreign Operations, of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for more information on the Company's business segments and foreign operations.

 Gross Profit

 In fiscal 2024, gross profit improved $9.0 million, or 12.1%, to $83.3 million on a sales increase of $18.2 million. Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased 140 basis points in fiscal 2024 to 28.2%, compared to 26.8% in fiscal 2023.

 There were a number of factors that impacted the Company's overall gross profit rate in fiscal 2024. Gross profit for the year was primarily impacted by improved volumes (approximately $4.9 million) and a more favorable product mix (approximately $2.1 million). This was driven by the global economic recovery that started in fiscal 2021 following the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and an increase in the sales of high-margin oil and gas transmissions. The remaining increase ($2.0 million) is the result of price realization, cost reduction efforts and improved productivity at our operating facilities.

 Marketing, Engineering and Administrative (ME&A) Expenses

 Marketing, engineering, and administrative (ME&A) expenses of $71.6 million were up $9.4 million, or 15.1%, in fiscal 2024 compared to the prior fiscal year. As a percentage of sales, ME&A expenses increased to 24.3% of sales versus 22.5% of sales in fiscal 2023. The increase in ME&A spending in fiscal 2024 compared to the prior year was driven increased salaries and benefits ($1.9 million), global bonus expense ($1.8 million), travel and entertainment ($0.9 million), stock compensation expense ($0.6 million), professional fees ($0.6 million), lease expense ($0.5 million), a transfer tax payment related to the Katsa acquisition ($0.4 million), commission and marketing expense ($0.4 million), depreciation and amortization ($0.7 million), a currency exchange driven increase ($0.4 million) and other inflationary and volume related increases ($1.2 million).

 Restructuring of Operations

 During the course of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 the Company incurred $0.2 million and $0.2 million in restructuring charges, respectively. These charges relate to a continued restructuring program at the Company's Belgian operation to focus resources on core manufacturing process, while allowing for savings on the outsourcing of non-core processes.

 Interest Expense

 Interest expense of $1.4 million for fiscal 2024 was $0.8 million lower than fiscal 2023 due to a decreased average balance, partially offset by an increased average interest rate on the domestic revolver.

 Other Income, Net

 In fiscal 2024, other income, net, of $5.3 million increased by $4.7 million from the prior fiscal year other income, net, of $0.7 million. This change is primarily due to the impact of a bargain purchase gain related to the acquisition of Katsa ($3.7 million). See Note B, Acquisition of Katsa Oy, of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for a full description of this acquisition.

 Income Taxes

 The effective tax rate for fiscal 2024 is 26.8% compared to 26.2% for fiscal 2023.

 The Company maintains valuation allowances when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the tax provision in the period of change. In determining whether a valuation allowance is required, the Company takes into account such factors as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carry-back and carry-forward periods, and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of realization of a deferred tax asset. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will not generate sufficient taxable income and foreign source income to realize all the domestic deferred tax assets, therefore, the company recorded in fiscal year 2024 and 2023, the valuation allowance of $24.0 million and $22.3 million, respectively.

 Order Rates

 As of June 30, 2024, the Company's backlog of orders scheduled for shipment during the next six months (six-month backlog), which includes the impact of the Katsa acquisition, was $133.7 million or approximately 12% higher than the six-month backlog of $119.2 million as of June 30, 2023. The increased backlog is primarily attributable to continued strength in order rates throughout the fiscal year, along with the addition of Katsa backlog ($12.6 million). These increases were partially offset by a reduction in past due orders resulting from improved operational performance and the elimination of the BCS backlog ($5.3 million) due to the sale of that business during the fiscal year.

 Liquidity and Capital Resources

 Fiscal Years 2024 and 2023

 The Katsa acquisition closed on May 31, 2024, and the Company reports its operations on a one-month lag. Therefore, only the opening balance sheet and a bargain purchase gain impact the fiscal year 2024 results.

 The net cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2024 totaled $33.8 million, an improvement of $10.9 million from the prior fiscal year cash provided by operating activities of $22.9 million. The positive movement in operating cash flow was created primarily by a strong earnings result and favorable working capital movements. The Company has begun to make significant progress on its inventory reduction initiatives, driving a $12.0 million decrease (excluding the Katsa acquisition) during the second half of fiscal 2024.

 The net cash used by investing activities for fiscal 2024 primarily represents the acquisition of Katsa ($23.2 million) and the acquisition of property, plant and equipment ($8.7 million). The capital spending amount reflects a return to somewhat normalized capital spending levels, still somewhat hampered by extended lead times on equipment resulting from global supply chain challenges.

 The net cash provided by financing activities relates primarily to borrowings of long-term debt ($7.4 million) impacted by the Katsa acquisition, along with payments for dividends ($1.7 million), withholding taxes on stock compensation ($1.8 million), payments on finance lease obligations ($0.9 million) and dividends paid to a non-controlling interest ($0.3 million). During fiscal 2024, the Company did not purchase any shares as part of its Board-authorized stock repurchase program. The Company has 315,000 shares remaining under its authorized stock repurchase plan.

 Future Liquidity and Capital Resources

 On June 29, 2018, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with BMO Harris Bank N.A. ("BMO") that provided for the assignment and assumption of the previously existing loans between the Company and Bank of Montreal (the "2016 Credit Agreement") and subsequent amendments into a term loan (the "Term Loan") and revolving credit loans (each a "Revolving Loan" and, collectively, the "Revolving Loans," and, together with the Term Loan, the "Loans"). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, BMO agreed to make the Term Loan to the Company in a principal amount not to exceed $35.0 million and the Company may, from time to time prior to the maturity date, enter into Revolving Loans in amounts not to exceed, in the aggregate, $50.0 million (the "Revolving Credit Commitment"), subject to a Borrowing Base based on Eligible Inventory and Eligible Receivables. Subsequent amendments to the Credit Agreement reduced the Term Loan to $20.0 million, extended the maturity date of the Term Loan to April 1, 2027, and require the Company to make principal installment payments on the Term Loan of $0.5 million per quarter. In addition, under subsequent amendments to the Credit Agreement, BMO's Revolving Credit Commitment is currently $45.0 million. The Credit Agreement also allows the Company to obtain Letters of Credit from BMO, which if drawn upon by the beneficiary thereof and paid by BMO, would become Revolving Loans. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may not pay cash dividends on its common stock in excess of $5.0 million in any fiscal year. The term of the Revolving Loans under the Credit Agreement currently runs through April 1, 2027.

 Under the Credit Agreement as amended, interest rates are based on either the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") or the euro interbank offered rate (the "EURIBO Rate"). Loans are designated either as "SOFR Loans," which accrue interest at an Adjusted Term SOFR plus an Applicable Margin, or "Eurodollar Loans," which accrue interest at the EURIBO Rate plus an Applicable Margin. Amounts drawn on a Letter of Credit that are not timely reimbursed to the Bank bear interest at a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin. The Company also pays a commitment fee on the average daily Unused Revolving Credit Commitment equal to an Applicable Margin. Currently, the Applicable Margins are between 2.00% and 3.50% for Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 2.125% and 3.625% for Term Loans; and 0.15% and 0.30% for the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company's Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio).

 The Credit Agreement, as amended, requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants. Specifically, the Company's Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio may not exceed 3.50 to 1.00, and the Company's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio may not be less than 1.10 to 1.00. In determining whether the Company is in compliance with its Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio, the Company's EBITDA will include transaction expenses of up to $0.6 million for the Katsa acquisition, as well as pro-forma EBITDA of Katsa as permitted by the Bank. The Company's Tangible Net Worth may not be less than $100.0 million plus 50% of positive Net Income for each fiscal year ending on or after June 30, 2023.

 Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company's personal property, including accounts receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment, and intellectual property. The Company has also pledged 100% of its equity interests in certain domestic subsidiaries and 65% of its equity interests in certain foreign subsidiaries. The Company also entered into a Collateral Assignment of Rights under Purchase Agreement for its acquisition of Veth Propulsion. To effect these security interests, the Company entered into various amendment and assignment agreements that consent to the assignment of certain agreements previously entered into between the Company and the Bank of Montreal in connection with the 2016 Credit Agreement. The Company also amended and assigned to BMO a Negative Pledge Agreement that it has previously entered into with Bank of Montreal, pursuant to which it agreed not to sell, lease or otherwise encumber real estate that it owns except as permitted by the Credit Agreement and the Negative Pledge Agreement.

 The Company has also entered into a Deposit Account Control Agreement with the Bank, reflecting the Bank's security interest in deposit accounts the Company maintains with the Bank. The Bank may not provide a notice of exclusive control of a deposit account (thereby obtaining exclusive control of the account) prior to the occurrence or existence of a Default or an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement or otherwise upon the occurrence or existence of an event or condition that would, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice, constitute a Default or an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement.

 Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, BMO may take the following actions upon written notice to the Company: (1) terminate its remaining obligations under the Credit Agreement; (2) declare all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable; and (3) demand the Company to immediately Cash Collateralize L/C Obligations in an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate L/C Obligations or a greater amount if BMO determines a greater amount is necessary. If such Event of Default is due to the Company's bankruptcy, BMO may take the three actions listed above without notice to the Company.

 On April 1, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 10 to Credit Agreement (the "Tenth Amendment") that amended and extended the Credit Agreement. The Tenth Amendment increased the Revolving Credit Commitment from $40.0 million to $45.0 million, and also increased the Borrowing Base for Revolving Loans from the sum of (a) 85% of outstanding unpaid Eligible Receivable and (b) the lesser of $30.0 million and 50% of Eligible Inventory to the sum of (a) 85% of outstanding unpaid Eligible Receivables and (b) the lesser of $35.0 million (reduced to $32.5 million beginning with the first quarter of the 2026 fiscal year) and 60% of Eligible Inventory (reduced to 55% of Eligible Inventory beginning with the third quarter of the 2025 fiscal year, and 50% of Eligible Inventory beginning with the first quarter of the 2026 fiscal year).

 The Company used the increased borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement to help finance its acquisition of Katsa by TD Finland Holding Oy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Tenth Amendment specifically permitted the Company to use Revolving Loans for the Katsa acquisition. In addition, in determining whether the Company is in compliance with its Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio, the Company's EBITDA will include transaction expenses of up to $0.6 million for the Katsa acquisition, as well as pro-forma EBITDA of Katsa as permitted by the Bank.

 The Tenth Amendment also extended the Credit Agreement through April 1, 2027 and extended the maturity date of the Term Loan and the Term Loan Commitment Date to April 1, 2027.

 The Tenth Amendment also increased the Applicable Margins under the Credit Agreement for purposes of determining interest rates on Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit, Term Loans, and the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment. Prior to the Tenth Amendment, the Applicable Margins were between 1.25% and 2.75% for Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 1.375% and 2.875% for Term Loans; and.10% and.15% for the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company's Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio). Under the Tenth Amendment, the Applicable Margins are between 2% and 3.5% for Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 2.125% and 3.625% for Term Loans; and.15% and.3% for the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company's Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio).

 The Tenth Amendment also increased the amount of Restricted Payments that the Company may make in the form of cash dividends, distributions, purchases, redemptions, or other acquisitions of its common stock from $3.0 million to $5.0 million in any fiscal year.

 The Company remains in compliance with its liquidity and other covenants.

 Management believes that available cash, the Credit Agreement, the unsecured lines of credit, cash generated from future operations, and potential access to debt markets will be adequate to fund the Company's cash and capital requirements for the foreseeable future.

 The Company's balance sheet remains strong, there are no material off-balance-sheet arrangements, and it continues to have sufficient liquidity for its near-term needs. The Company had approximately $26.5 million of available borrowings under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2024. The Company expects to continue to generate enough cash from operations, as well as its credit facilities, to meet its operating and investing needs. As of June 30, 2024, the Company also had cash of $20.1 million, primarily at its overseas operations. These funds, with some restrictions and tax implications, are available for repatriation as deemed necessary by the Company. In fiscal 2025, the Company expects to contribute $0.5 million to its defined benefit pension plans, the minimum contribution required.

 Net working capital decreased $0.5 million, or 0.4%, during fiscal 2024 and the current ratio (calculated as total current assets divided by total current liabilities) remained flat at 2.2 for both June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023. The decrease in net working capital was primarily the result of an increase to trade payables ($3.9 million), accrued salaries ($2.9 million) and accrued liabilities ($10.9 million), along with a decrease to other current assets ($2.9 million – related to reclassification of assets held for sale of $3.0 million). These reductions were partially offset by increases to cash ($6.8 million) and trade receivables ($2.5 million). The working capital movements are largely a result of the Katsa acquisition and growing demand and supply chain imbalances, along with successful efforts to drive inventory reduction. Excluding the Katsa acquisition, inventory decreased by $11.5 million from the end of fiscal 2023.

 The Company expects capital expenditures to be approximately $14 million - $16 million in fiscal 2025. These anticipated expenditures reflect the Company's plans to invest in modern equipment to drive efficiencies, quality improvements and cost reductions.

 Management believes that available cash, the credit facility, cash generated from future operations, and potential access to debt markets will be adequate to fund the Company's capital requirements for the foreseeable future.

 Contractual Obligations

 The Company's significant contractual obligations as of June 30, 2024 are discussed in Note I "Lease Obligations" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of this 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There are no material undisclosed guarantees. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had no additional material purchase obligations other than those created in the ordinary course of business related to inventory and property, plant and equipment, which generally have terms of less than 90 days. The Company also has long-term obligations related to its postretirement plans which are discussed in detail in Note N "Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of this 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Postretirement medical claims are paid by the Company as they are submitted, and they are anticipated to be $0.5 million in fiscal 2025 based on actuarial estimates; however, these amounts can vary significantly from year to year because the Company is self-insured. In fiscal 2025, the Company expects to contribute $0.5 million to its defined benefit pension plans, the minimum contribution required.

 Other Matters

 Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 The preparation of this Annual Report requires management's judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

 The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note A, Significant Accounting Policies, of the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Not all of these significant accounting policies require management to make difficult, subjective, or complex judgments or estimates. However, the policies management considers most critical to understanding and evaluating its reported financial results are the following:

 Business Combinations

 The Company utilizes the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations and allocates the purchase price of an acquisition to the various tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The Company primarily establishes fair value using the income approach based upon a discounted cash flow model. The income approach requires the use of many assumptions and estimates including future revenues and expenses, as well as discount factors and income tax rates. Other estimates include:

 estimated step-ups for the fixed assets, leasehold interests and inventory;

 estimated fair values of intangible assets; and

 estimated income tax assets and liabilities assumed from the acquiree.

 While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the business acquisition date, its estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the purchase price allocation period, which is generally one year from the business acquisition date, the Company records adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill or bargain purchase gain. For changes in the valuation of intangible assets between preliminary and final purchase price allocation, the related amortization is adjusted in the period it occurs. Subsequent to the purchase price allocation period any adjustment to assets acquired or liabilities assumed is included in operating results in the period in which the adjustment is determined.

 Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans

 The Company provides a wide range of benefits to employees and retired employees, including pensions and postretirement health care coverage. Plan assets and obligations are recorded annually based on the Company's measurement date utilizing various actuarial assumptions such as discount rates, expected return on plan assets, compensation increases, retirement and mortality tables, and health care cost trend rates as of that date. The approach used to determine the annual assumptions are as follows:

 Discount Rate – based on the Willis Towers Watson BOND:Link model at June 30, 2024 as applied to the expected payouts from the pension plans. This yield curve is made up of Corporate Bonds rated AA or better.

 Expected Return on Plan Assets – based on the expected long-term average rate of return on assets in the pension funds, which is reflective of the current and projected asset mix of the funds and considers historical returns earned on the funds.

 Compensation Increase – reflect the long-term actual experience, the near-term outlook and assumed inflation.

 Retirement and Mortality Rates – based upon the Society of Actuaries PRI-2012 base tables for annuitants and non-annuitants, adjusted for generational mortality improvement based on the Society of Actuaries modified MP-2021 projection scale.

 Health Care Cost Trend Rates – developed based upon historical cost data, near-term outlook and an assessment of likely long-term trends.

 Measurements of net periodic benefit cost are based on the assumptions used for the previous year-end measurements of assets and obligations. The Company reviews its actuarial assumptions on an annual basis and makes modifications to the assumptions when appropriate. The effects of the modifications are recorded currently or amortized over future periods. Based on information provided by its independent actuaries and other relevant sources, the Company believes that the assumptions used are reasonable; however, changes in these assumptions could impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company voluntarily changed its method of accounting for recognizing actuarial gains and losses for its defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans. Under the accounting method change, accumulated actuarial gains and losses as determined upon the annual remeasurement of projected benefit obligation and plan assets are recognized sooner in earnings through net periodic benefit cost within Other Income (Expense) on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

 Income Taxes and Valuation Allowances

 Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company maintains valuation allowances when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. In determining whether a valuation allowance is required, the Company considers such factors as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carry-back and carry-forward periods, and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of realization of a deferred tax asset. Based on the above criteria the Company has determined that a full valuation allowance is appropriate as relates to its domestic operations. A full domestic valuation allowance of $24.0 million has been recognized at June 30, 2024. The recognition of a valuation allowance does not affect the availability of the tax credits as the Company realizes earnings.

 As required by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report and under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

 Management ' s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 1.

 pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company,

 2.

 provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company, and

 3.

 provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on financial statements.

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

 The Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting based upon the framework (2013 edition) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based upon such evaluation, the Company's management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2024.

 For purposes of evaluating the Company's internal control over financial reporting, management's assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, the Company did not include the internal controls of TD Finland Oy and Katsa Oy (collectively, "Katsa"), which the Company acquired on May 31, 2024, and which are included in the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of June 30, 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, cash flows, and changes in shareholders' equity, for the year then ended. The Company reports Katsa's operations on a one-month lag. Therefore, only the opening balance sheet and a bargain purchase gain impact the fiscal year 2024 results. Katsa constitutes 12.7% of total assets as of June 30, 2024, and 0% and 0% of net sales and income from operations, respectively, for the year then ended.

 RSM US LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, as stated in their report which appears herein.

 Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, there have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Twin Disc, Incorporated

 Opinion on the Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 We have audited Twin Disc, Incorporated's (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013.

 We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements of the Company and our report dated September 6, 2024, expressed an unqualified opinion.

 As described in Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management has excluded TD Finland Oy and Katsa Oy, (collectively, "Katsa") from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024 because it was acquired by the Company in a purchase business combination in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. We have also excluded Katsa from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. Katsa is a wholly owned subsidiary whose total assets, net sales and income from operations represent approximately 12.7%, 0.0% and 0.0%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024.

 Basis for Opinion

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

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

 Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

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

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

 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Twin Disc, Incorporated

 Opinion on the Financial Statements

 We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Twin Disc, Incorporated (the Company) as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements and schedule (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013, and our report dated September 6, 2024 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

 Emphasis of Matter

 As discussed in Note A to the consolidated financial statements, the Company elected to change its method of accounting for actuarial gains and losses related to its pension and other postretirement benefit plans during the prior year ended June 30, 2023. The Company adopted this change on a retrospective basis.

 Basis for Opinion

 These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 Critical Audit Matters

 The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

 Deferred Tax Asset Valuation Allowance

 As described in Note O to the consolidated financial statements the Company's gross deferred tax asset and valuation allowance was approximately $30,157,000 and $24,035,000, respectively, as of June 30, 2024. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements. Valuation allowances are provided for deferred tax assets where it is considered more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefit of such assets. In evaluating the realizability of deferred tax assets in future periods, the available positive and negative evidence, including projected future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences, history of book losses, tax planning strategies and results of recent operations, are considered.

 We identified management's determination of the value of deferred tax assets as a critical audit matter as there is significant judgment required by management to conclude that it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be realized in future periods. In addition, the auditing of these elements involved complex and subjective auditor judgment, including the need to involve personnel with specialized skill and knowledge.

 Our audit procedures to evaluate management's determination that sufficient taxable income will not be generated to realize all of the deferred tax assets included the following, among others:

 We evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over income taxes, specifically, those controls over the evaluation of the realizability of deferred tax assets.

 We evaluated the reasonableness of management's estimates in regard to the ability to generate future taxable income and utilize the deferred tax assets by evaluating: (i) the forecast of future taxable income, including testing of management's forecasts against the Company's historical performance, and (ii) testing management's assessment of the timing of future reversals of temporary differences.

 We utilized personnel with specialized knowledge and skill in income taxes and accounting for income taxes under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740 to assist in the evaluation of management's assessment of positive and negative evidence and their conclusion that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefit of its deferred tax assets.

 We have served as the Company's auditor since 2017.

 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AMOUNTS AND PER SHARE DATA)

 A. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 Nature of Operations Twin Disc, Incorporated ("Twin Disc", or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the state of Wisconsin in 1918. Twin Disc designs, manufactures and sells marine and heavy duty off highway power transmission equipment. The Company has manufacturing locations in the United States, Belgium, Finland, Italy, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. In addition to these countries, it has distribution locations in Singapore, China, Australia and Japan. Products offered include: marine transmissions, azimuth drives, surface drives, propellers and boat management systems as well as power-shift transmissions, hydraulic torque converters, power take-offs, industrial clutches and controls systems. The Company sells its products to customers primarily in the pleasure craft, commercial and military marine markets, as well as in the energy and natural resources, government and industrial markets. The Company's worldwide sales to both domestic and foreign customers are transacted through a direct sales force and a distributor network.

 On May 31, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of 100 % of the outstanding common stock of Katsa Oy ("Katsa"). Based in Finland, Katsa is an European manufacturer of custom-designed, high-quality power transmission components and gearboxes for industrial and marine end-markets for a broad range of end market applications. Katsa also provides a wide range of after-sales services, including spare part deliveries, reverse engineering, modeling, and gearbox refurbishment.

 Basis of Presentations The consolidated financial statements and information included in this Annual Report on Form 10 -K ("Form 10 -K") include the financial results of Katsa (the opening balance sheet and operations on a one -month lag), and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of the United States of America. The Company's fiscal year end is June 30.

 Consolidation Principles The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Twin Disc, Incorporated and its wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. One foreign subsidiary is included based on a fiscal year ending May 31, to facilitate prompt reporting of consolidated results. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

 Management Estimates-- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

 Translation of Foreign Currencies The financial statements of the Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries that use the local currency as their functional currency are translated using the current exchange rate for assets and liabilities, the weighted-average exchange rate for the year for revenues and expenses, and the historical exchange rate for the year for equity. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, which is included in equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in earnings. Included in other (expense) income are foreign currency transaction gain (losses) of ($ 377) and ($ 373) in fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 Business Combinations In accordance with ASC 805 - 10, "Business Combinations", the Company accounts for all business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under this method, the Company allocates the fair value of consideration transferred in a business combination to the estimated fair value at the acquisition date of the tangible and intangible assets acquired as well as the liabilities assumed. Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred. Any excess consideration transferred is recorded as goodwill and in instances where the fair value of consideration transferred is less than the estimated fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed, such amounts are recorded as a gain on the bargain purchase.

 Certain adjustments to the assessed fair values of the assets, liabilities, or non-controlling interests made subsequent to the acquisition date, but within the measurement period, which is up to one year, are recorded as adjustments to goodwill or the gain on the bargain purchase. Any adjustments subsequent to the measurement period are recorded in income. Any cost or equity method interest that the Company holds in the acquired company prior to the acquisition is re-measured to fair value at acquisition with a resulting gain or loss recognized in income for the difference between fair value and the existing book value. As of June 30, 2024, there were no operational results from Katsa included in the fiscal 2024 results of the Company.

 Cash --The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalent. Under the Company's cash management system, cash balances at certain banks are funded when checks are presented for payment. To the extent that checks issued, but not yet presented for payment, exceed the balance on hand at the specific bank against which they were written, the amount of those un-presented checks is included in accounts payable. The Company maintains cash in bank accounts in excess of insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses and does not believe that significant credit risk exists as a result of this practice.

 Accounts Receivable --These represent trade accounts receivable and are stated net of an allowance for credit losses of $ 1,383 and $ 1,221 at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company records an allowance for credit losses for certain customers where a risk of default has been specifically identified as well as provisions determined on a general basis when it is believed that some default is probable and estimable. The assessment of likelihood of customer default is based on a variety of factors, including the length of time the receivables are past due, the historical collection experience, as well as the consideration of customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, negotiated changes to the payment terms of customers, recent economic trends, and expectations regarding economic conditions over a reasonable and supportable future period. Various factors may adversely impact its customer's ability to access sufficient liquidity and capital to fund their operations and render the Company's estimation of customer defaults inherently uncertain. While the Company believes current allowance for credit losses are adequate, it is possible that these factors may cause higher levels of customer defaults and bad debt expense in future periods.

 Fair Value of Financial Instruments --The carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate short-term maturity of these financial instruments. If measured at fair value, cash would be classified as Level 1 and all other items listed above would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as defined in Note N, Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans. The Company's borrowings under the revolving loan agreement, which is classified as long-term debt and consists of loans that are routinely borrowed and repaid throughout the year, approximate fair value at June 30, 2024. The Company's term loan borrowing, which is SOFR-based, approximates fair value at June 30, 2024. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, long-term debt (including any current portion) would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

 Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value (or lower of cost or market where appropriate). Cost has been determined by the last in, first out (LIFO) method for the majority of inventories located in the United States, and by the first in, first out (FIFO) or average cost methods for all other inventories. Management specifically identifies obsolete products and analyzes historical usage, forecasted production based on future orders, demand forecasts, and economic trends, among others, when evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for excess and obsolete inventory.

 Assets Held for Sale-- Assets that will be recovered principally through sale rather than in its continuing use in operations are reclassified out of property, plant and equipment and into assets held for sale if all of the following criteria are met: (a) management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the asset(s); (b) the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets; (c) an active program to locate a buyer, and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the asset have been initiated; (d) the sale of the asset is probable and the transfer of the asset is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within a year; (e) the asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; and (f) actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that plan will be withdrawn.

 Assets held for sale are carried at fair value less costs to sell, or net book value, whichever is lower. The Company ceases to record depreciation expense at the time of designation as held for sale. During fiscal 2023, the Company classified as and sold certain assets held for sale and recorded a net gain of approximately $ 4.1 million recorded in other operating income. During fiscal 2024, the Company reclassified its former corporate headquarters previously classified as held for sale to property, plant and equipment as an idle asset. The Company continues to market the assets for sale and expects to eventually sell these assets, however, it's not probable that a sale will occur within one year. As such, the assets are considered permanently idled and the Company has not resumed depreciation expense during the year ended June 30, 2024.

 Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation Assets are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged against earnings as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated. Capital project costs are accumulated in construction-in-progress until completed, at which time the costs are transferred to the relevant asset and commence depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The lives assigned to buildings and related improvements range from 10 to 40 years, and the lives assigned to machinery and equipment range from 5 to 15 years. Upon disposal of property, plant and equipment, the cost of the asset and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in earnings. Fully depreciated assets are not removed from the accounts until physically disposed.

 At June 30, 2024, the Company owned one permanently idled facility with a book value of $ 3.0 million. This facility is assessed for impairment quarterly and depreciation has ceased. This facility is accounted for within property, plant and equipment.

 Right of Use Lease Assets In accordance with ASC 842, the Company's leases, with lease periods longer than twelve months, are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. These leases primarily consist of office and warehouse facilities, as well as production and office equipment.

 The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. The lease term begins upon lease commencement, which is when the Company takes possession of the asset, and may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that such options will be exercised. As its lease agreements typically do not provide an implicit rate, the Company primarily uses an incremental borrowing rate based upon the information available at lease commencement. In determining the incremental borrowing rate, the Company considers its current borrowing rate, the lease period, and the economic environments where the lease activity is concentrated.

 Impairment of Long-lived Assets --The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. When triggering events are identified, the Company performs undiscounted operating cash flow analyses to determine if an impairment exists for property, plant and equipment and other long-lived assets, including intangible assets. If an impairment is determined to exist, any related impairment loss is calculated based on fair value. Fair value is primarily determined using discounted cash flow analyses; however, other methods may be used to determine the fair value, including third party valuations when necessary.

 Intangible Assets -- Intangible assets primarily consist of customer relationships, technology know-how, and tradenames, all of which are definite-lived. They were initially valued at fair value at acquisition, and are amortized over their respective useful lives on the basis of straight line or accelerated, as appropriate.

 Derivative Financial Instruments - - The Company has written policies and procedures that place all financial instruments under the direction of the Company's corporate treasury department and restrict all derivative transactions to those intended for hedging purposes. The use of financial instruments for trading purposes is prohibited. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage certain financial risks. The Company enters into forward contracts to reduce the earnings and cash flow impact of non-functional currency denominated receivables and payables. The Company uses interest rate swap contracts to reduce the exposure to variability in interest rates on floating debt borrowings. The Company designates certain financial instruments as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. The Company designates certain financial instruments as net investment hedges to reduce the exposure in its foreign currency denominated net investments in wholly-owned subsidiaries. See Note R, Derivative Financial Instruments, for additional information.

 Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Plans -- The Company provides a wide range of benefits to employees and retired employees, including pensions and postretirement health care coverage. Plan assets and obligations are recorded annually based on the Company's measurement date utilizing various actuarial assumptions such as discount rates, expected return on plan assets, compensation increases, retirement and mortality tables, and health care cost trend rates as of that date.

 Change in Accounting Method

 During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company changed its accounting method related to the recognition of actuarial gains and losses for the Company's pension and postretirement benefit plans (the "Accounting change"). Prior to the Accounting change, actuarial gains and losses were recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss upon annual remeasurement and were amortized into earnings in future periods when they exceeded the accounting corridor, a defined range within which amortization of net gains and losses is not required. Under the Accounting change, the accounting corridor of 10% of the greater of the projected benefit obligation and plan assets was modified to add full, immediate recognition above a second 20% threshold. Although the decision to make the Accounting change occurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023, the actual accounting method change was applied to all calculations for fiscal year end 2023 presented in this Form 10 -K.

 Under the new accounting method, actuarial gains and losses are recognized in net periodic benefit cost through a Modified Mark-to-market ("MMTM") (expense) benefit upon annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis as triggering events warrant remeasurement. The method for recognizing prior service credits (charges) as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and amortized into earnings in future periods is not changing. With respect to the recognition of actuarial gains and losses, while the historical principle was acceptable, the Company believes the Accounting change is preferable as it better aligns with fair value principles by recognizing the effects of economic and interest rate changes in plan assets and liabilities in the year in which the gains and losses are incurred to the degree such accumulated gains and losses exceed the new 20% threshold in addition to amortizing the amounts between the 10% and 20% thresholds over time.

 Income Taxes --The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which temporary differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided for deferred tax assets where it is considered more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefit of such assets. The Company evaluates its uncertain tax positions as new information becomes available. Tax benefits are recognized to the extent a position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the taxing authority.

 Segment Reporting --Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. As of June 30, 2024, the Company identified two operating segments. Refer to "Note K. Business Segments and Foreign Operations" for further information.

 Revenue Recognition --Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized using a five -step model consisting of the following:

 1.

 Identify the contract with a customer; The Company's customers consist of distributors and direct end-users. With regard to distributors, the Company generally has written distribution agreements which describe the terms of the distribution arrangement, such as the product range, the sales territory, product pricing, sales support, payment and returns policy, etc. Customer contracts are generally in the form of acknowledged purchase orders. Services to be rendered, as part of the delivery of those products, are also generally specified. Such services include installation reviews and technical commissioning.

 2.

 Identify the performance obligations in the contract; The Company's performance obligations primarily consist of product delivery and certain service obligations such as technical commissioning, repair services, installation reviews, and shift development.

 3.

 Determine the transaction price; The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services, including the expected value of variable consideration. Variable consideration is immaterial.

 4.

 Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; The Company determined that the most relevant allocation method for its service obligations is to apply the expected cost plus appropriate margin. This is the Company's practice of billing for repairs, overhaul, and other product service related time incurred by its technicians.

 5.

 Recognize revenue; Revenue is recognized as each performance obligation is satisfied which is typically when the Company transfers control of a good or service to a customer, which can occur over time or at a point in time. For technical commissioning, repairs, installation review, and shift development services, revenue is recognized upon completion of the service. The customer's ability and intent to pay the transaction price is assessed in determining whether a contract exists with the customer. If collectability of substantially all of the consideration in a contract is not probable, consideration received is not recognized as revenue unless the consideration is nonrefundable and the Company no longer has an obligation to transfer additional goods or services to the customer or collectability becomes probable.

 Goods sold to third party distributors are subject to an annual return policy, for which a provision is made at the time of shipment based upon historical experience. Goods sold under bill and hold arrangements are recorded as revenue when control has been transferred to the customer and when the reason for the arrangement is substantive, when the product is identified as the customer's asset, when the product is ready for delivery to the customer, and when the Company cannot use the product or redirect the product to another customer. While significant customer deposits are collected at certain locations, the Company's payment terms are short-term in nature and therefore do not include a significant financing component.

 In the table below, contract assets are accounts receivable, trade and contract liabilities are customer deposits. Contract balances for the years ended June 30, 2024, 2023, and 2022 are as follows:

 Contract Assets

 Contract Liabilities

 2022

 45,452

 17,021

 2023

 54,760

 22,937

 2024

 52,207

 26,540

 Our contracts are short term in nature, and therefore, the amount included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the year was recognized as revenue in the reporting period.

 Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs --The Company records revenue from shipping and handling costs in net sales. The cost associated with shipping and handling of products is reflected in cost of goods sold.

 Recently Issued Not Yet Adopted Accounting Standards -- In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance ASU 2023 - 09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023 - 09"), which includes requirements that an entity disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that are greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income (or loss) by the applicable statutory income rate. The standard also requires that entities disclose income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) and income tax expense (or benefit) disaggregated between domestic and foreign. ASU 2023 - 09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its financial statement disclosures.

 Recently Adopted Accounting Standards -- In June 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance (ASU 2016 - 13) and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance under ASU 2018 - 19, ASU 2019 - 04, ASU 2019 - 05 and ASU 2019 - 10 (collectively ASC 326). ASC 326 requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. This replaces the existing incurred loss model with an expected loss model and requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. The amendments in this guidance are effective for filers, excluding smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 ( the Company's fiscal 2024), with early adoption permitted for certain amendments. ASC 326 must be adopted by applying a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

 Special Note Regarding Smaller Reporting Company Status -- Under SEC Release 33 - 10513; 34 - 83550, Amendments to Smaller Reporting Company Definition, the Company qualifies as a smaller reporting company based on its public float as of the last business day of the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Accordingly, it has scaled some of its disclosures of financial and non-financial information in this annual report. The Company will continue to determine whether to provide additional scaled disclosures of financial or non-financial information in future quarterly reports, annual reports and/or proxy statements if it remains a smaller reporting company under SEC rules.

 B. ACQUISITION OF KATSA OY

 On May 31, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of 100 % of the outstanding common stock of Katsa Oy ("Katsa"). Based in Finland, Katsa is a European manufacturer of custom-designed, high-quality power transmission components and gearboxes for industrial and marine end-markets for a broad range of end market applications. Katsa also provides a wide range of after-sales services, including spare part deliveries, reverse engineering, modeling, and gearbox refurbishment. As a well-established business with a solid reputation for quality in addition to its strong in-house manufacturing and engineering capabilities, this acquisition is an excellent opportunity to expand Twin Disc's global presence, leveraging Kata's longstanding relationships with leading European OEMs to introduce the Company's portfolio into new, growing markets. This acquisition was pursuant to a Sale and Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") entered into by TD Finland Holding Oy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, with Timo Salli and Jouko Salli, the prior owners, on March 5, 2024.

 Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company paid an aggregate of approximately $ 25.5 million in cash at closing, which included a base payment plus adjustments for net cash and working capital, and transactions costs of $ 0.4 million. This amount was subject to a final determination of working capital adjustments.

 The Company, in part, financed the payment of the cash consideration through borrowings of $ 16.9 million under a new credit agreement entered into on April 1, 2024 with BMO Harris Bank N.A. (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement is further discussed in Note H, Debt.

 Purchase Price Allocation

 The acquisition of Katsa met the criteria for a business combination to be accounted for using the acquisition method under ASC 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805"), with the Company identified as the legal and the accounting acquirer. The Company recognized approximately $ 0.7 million of acquisition-related costs which were expensed in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2024.

 The following table details the allocation of the purchase price of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition of Katsa.

 The fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of $ 29.6 million exceeded the purchase price of the business, and additional expected working capital adjustment, of $ 25.9 million. As a result, the Company reassessed the recognition and measurement of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and concluded that the valuation procedures and resulting measurements were appropriate. Accordingly, the acquisition has been accounted for as a bargain purchase and as a result, the Company recognized a gain of $ 3.7 million, net of income tax of $ 2.5 million associated with the acquisition. The amount is recorded in other income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

 Pro forma results of operation for this acquisition have not been presented because the effects of the acquisition were not material to the Company's consolidated financial results.

 Fair Value Estimate of Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed

 The Company is continuing its review of the fair value estimate of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed during the measurement period, which will conclude as soon as the necessary information regarding the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date is obtained, or otherwise not available. This measurement period will not exceed one year from the acquisition date. At the effective date of the acquisition, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are required to be measured at fair value. The provisional fair value estimates of the property, plant and equipment, net, the intangible assets, net, and deferred income taxes are pending final review by the Company. Accordingly, until the fair values are final, there could be material adjustments to the Company's consolidated financial statements, including changes to depreciation and amortization expense related to the valuation of property and equipment and intangible assets acquired and their respective useful lives, among other adjustments.

 Upon the final determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the excess of the purchase price over such fair values is allocated to goodwill or the excess of such fair values over the purchase price is allocated to bargain purchase gain. The final determination of the purchase price, fair values and resulting bargain purchase gain may differ significantly from what is reflected in these consolidated financial statements.

 The following summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, including the preliminary estimates of the property, plant and equipment, net, the intangible assets, net, and deferred income taxes:

 The Company recognized a bargain purchase gain of $ 3.7 million, net of income tax expense of $ 2.5 million associated with the acquisition. As a result, the Company reassessed the recognition and measurement of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and concluded that the valuation procedures and resulting measurements were appropriate. The fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeded the fair value of the purchase price of the business.

 The fair values of property, plant and equipment, net, intangible assets, net, and deferred taxes presented above are preliminary until the final purchase price consideration is determined and the Company completes its work with the use of a third -party valuation firm. These values are subject to change. Any changes to the initial estimates of the fair value of assets and liabilities will impact the bargain purchase gain and may affect future earnings.

 C. INVENTORIES

 The major classes of inventories at June 30 were as follows:

 2024

 2023

 Finished parts

 $
 60,166

 $

 $
 130,484

 $
 131,930

 In the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to sell most of its boat management system product line located at one of its subsidiaries in Italy. The sale amount was below cost and resulted in the Company recognizing an inventory write-down of $ 2.1 million. The Company also evaluated its other boat management system inventory, not associated with the sale. The evaluation resulted in the Company recognizing an additional inventory write-down of $ 1.6 million for inventory located in the U.S. These write-downs were partially offset by certain liabilities transferred to the buyer at the time of the sale. The sale was completed in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024.

 Inventories stated on a LIFO basis represent approximately 31 % and 33 % of total inventories at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The approximate current cost of the LIFO inventories exceeded the LIFO cost by $ 30,680 and $ 30,646 at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Inventories were reduced during 2024 and 2023, resulting in a liquidation of LIFO inventory layers that were carried at a lower cost prevailing from a prior year, as compared with current costs in the current year ("LIFO decrement"). A LIFO decrement results in the erosion of layers created in earlier years, and, therefore, a LIFO layer is not created for years that have decrements. For the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the effects of LIFO decrements decreased cost of goods sold by $ 1,553 and $ 3,685, respectively.

 The Company had reserves for inventory obsolescence of $ 12,693 and $ 12,858 at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 G. WARRANTY

 The Company warrants all assembled products, parts (except component products or parts on which written warranties are issued by the respective manufacturers thereof and are furnished to the original customer, as to which the Company makes no warranty and assumes no liability) and service against defective materials or workmanship. Such warranty generally extends from periods ranging from 12 months to 24 months. The Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of its suppliers. However, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, the number of units affected by the failure and the expense involved in satisfactorily addressing the situation. The warranty reserve is established based on the Company's best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle future and existing claims on products sold as of the balance sheet date. When evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for warranty costs, management takes into consideration the term of the warranty coverage, historical claim rates and costs of repair, knowledge of the type and volume of new products and economic trends. While the Company believes that the warranty reserve is adequate and that the judgment applied is appropriate, such amounts estimated to be due and payable in the future could differ materially from what actually transpires. The following is a listing of the activity in the warranty reserve during the years ended June 30:

 Credit Agreement Debt:

 On June 29, 2018, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with BMO Harris Bank N.A. ("BMO") that provided for the assignment and assumption of the previously existing loans between the Company and Bank of Montreal (the "2016 Credit Agreement") and subsequent amendments into a term loan (the "Term Loan") and revolving credit loans (each a "Revolving Loan" and, collectively, the "Revolving Loans," and, together with the Term Loan, the "Loans"). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, BMO agreed to make the Term Loan to the Company in a principal amount not to exceed $ 35.0 million and the Company may, from time to time prior to the maturity date, enter into Revolving Loans in amounts not to exceed, in the aggregate, $ 50.0 million (the "Revolving Credit Commitment"), subject to a Borrowing Base based on Eligible Inventory and Eligible Receivables. Subsequent amendments to the Credit Agreement reduced the Term Loan to $ 20.0 million, extended the maturity date of the Term Loan to April 1, 2027, and require the Company to make principal installment payments on the Term Loan of $ 0.5 million per quarter. In addition, under subsequent amendments to the Credit Agreement, BMO's Revolving Credit Commitment is currently $ 45.0 million. The Credit Agreement also allows the Company to obtain Letters of Credit from BMO, which if drawn upon by the beneficiary thereof and paid by BMO, would become Revolving Loans. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may not pay cash dividends on its common stock in excess of $ 5.0 million in any fiscal year. The term of the Revolving Loans under the Credit Agreement currently runs through April 1, 2027.

 Under the Credit Agreement as amended, interest rates are based on either the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") or the euro interbank offered rate (the "EURIBO Rate"). Loans are designated either as "SOFR Loans," which accrue interest at an Adjusted Term SOFR plus an Applicable Margin, or "Eurodollar Loans," which accrue interest at the EURIBO Rate plus an Applicable Margin. Amounts drawn on a Letter of Credit that are not timely reimbursed to the Bank bear interest at a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin. The Company also pays a commitment fee on the average daily Unused Revolving Credit Commitment equal to an Applicable Margin. Currently, the Applicable Margins are between 2.00 % and 3.50 % for Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 2.125 % and 3.625 % for Term Loans; and 0.15 % and 0.30 % for the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company's Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio).

 The Credit Agreement, as amended, requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants. Specifically, the Company's Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio may not exceed 3.50 to 1.00, and the Company's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio may not be less than 1.10 to 1.00. In determining whether the Company is in compliance with its Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio, the Company's EBITDA will include transaction expenses of up to $ 0.6 million for the Katsa acquisition, as well as pro-forma EBITDA of Katsa as permitted by the Bank. The Company's Tangible Net Worth may not be less than $ 100.0 million plus 50% of positive Net Income for each fiscal year ending on or after June 30, 2023.

 Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company's personal property, including accounts receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment, and intellectual property. The Company has also pledged 100 % of its equity interests in certain domestic subsidiaries and 65 % of its equity interests in certain foreign subsidiaries. The Company also entered into a Collateral Assignment of Rights under Purchase Agreement for its acquisition of Veth Propulsion. To effect these security interests, the Company entered into various amendment and assignment agreements that consent to the assignment of certain agreements previously entered into between the Company and the Bank of Montreal in connection with the 2016 Credit Agreement. The Company also amended and assigned to BMO a Negative Pledge Agreement that it has previously entered into with Bank of Montreal, pursuant to which it agreed not to sell, lease or otherwise encumber real estate that it owns except as permitted by the Credit Agreement and the Negative Pledge Agreement.

 The Company has also entered into a Deposit Account Control Agreement with the Bank, reflecting the Bank's security interest in deposit accounts the Company maintains with the Bank. The Bank may not provide a notice of exclusive control of a deposit account (thereby obtaining exclusive control of the account) prior to the occurrence or existence of a Default or an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement or otherwise upon the occurrence or existence of an event or condition that would, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice, constitute a Default or an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement.

 Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, BMO may take the following actions upon written notice to the Company: ( 1) terminate its remaining obligations under the Credit Agreement; ( 2) declare all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable; and ( 3) demand the Company to immediately Cash Collateralize L/C Obligations in an amount equal to 105 % of the aggregate L/C Obligations or a greater amount if BMO determines a greater amount is necessary. If such Event of Default is due to the Company's bankruptcy, BMO may take the three actions listed above without notice to the Company.

 On April 1, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 10 to Credit Agreement (the "Tenth Amendment") that amended and extended the Credit Agreement. The Tenth Amendment increased the Revolving Credit Commitment from $ 40.0 million to $ 45.0 million, and also increased the Borrowing Base for Revolving Loans from the sum of (a) 85 % of outstanding unpaid Eligible Receivable and (b) the lesser of $ 30.0 million and 50 % of Eligible Inventory to the sum of (a) 85 % of outstanding unpaid Eligible Receivables and (b) the lesser of $ 35.0 million (reduced to $ 32.5 million beginning with the first quarter of the 2026 fiscal year) and 60 % of Eligible Inventory (reduced to 55 % of Eligible Inventory beginning with the third quarter of the 2025 fiscal year, and 50 % of Eligible Inventory beginning with the first quarter of the 2026 fiscal year).

 The Company used the increased borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement to help finance its acquisition of Katsa by TD Finland Holding Oy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Tenth Amendment specifically permits the Company to use Revolving Loans for the Katsa acquisition

 The Tenth Amendment also extended the Credit Agreement through April 1, 2027 and extended the maturity date of the Term Loan and the Term Loan Commitment Date to April 1, 2027.

 The Tenth Amendment also increased the Applicable Margins under the Credit Agreement for purposes of determining interest rates on Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit, Term Loans, and the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment. Prior to the Tenth Amendment, the Applicable Margins were between 1.25 % and 2.75 % for Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 1.375 % and 2.875 % for Term Loans; and.10% and.15% for the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company's Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio). Under the Tenth Amendment, the Applicable Margins are between 2 % and 3.5 % for Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 2.125 % and 3.625 % for Term Loans; and.15% and.3% for the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company's Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio).

 The Tenth Amendment also increased the amount of Restricted Payments that the Company may make in the form of cash dividends, distributions, purchases, redemptions, or other acquisitions of its common stock from $ 3.0 million to $ 5.0 million in any fiscal year.

 During fiscal year 2024, the average interest rate was 6.97 % on the Term Loan, and 5.67 % on the Revolving Loans.

 As of June 30, 2024, the Company's borrowing capacity under the terms of the Credit Agreement was approximately $ 42,813 and the Company had approximately $ 26,525 of available borrowings.

 The Company's borrowings described above approximates fair value at June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, long-term debt (including the current portion) would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

 The Company is party to an interest rate swap arrangement with Bank of Montreal, with an initial amount of $ 20,000 and a maturity date of March 4, 2026 to hedge the Term Loan. As of June 30, 2024, the notional amount was $ 9,500. This swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. This swap is included in the disclosures in Note S, Derivative Financial Instruments.

 During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company designated its euro denominated Revolving Loan as a net investment hedge to mitigate the risk of variability in its euro denominated net investments in wholly-owned foreign companies. Effective upon the designation, all changes in fair value of the euro Revolving Loan are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss along with the foreign currency translation adjustments on those foreign investments. This net investment hedge is included in the disclosures in Note S, Derivative Financial Instruments.

 The PPP Loan:

 On April 17, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note (the "PPP Loan") evidencing an unsecured loan in the amount of $ 8,200 made to the Company under the Payment Protection Plan ("PPP"). The PPP is a liquidity facility program established by the U.S. government as part of the CARES Act in response to the negative economic impact of the COVID- 19 outbreak. The PPP Loan is funded by the Small Business Administration ("SBA") and administered by BMO. The PPP Loan has a two -year term and bears interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments were deferred until April 2022.

 The PPP Loan is a forgivable loan to the extent proceeds are used to cover qualified documented payroll, mortgage interest, rent, and utility costs over a 24 -week measurement period (as amended) following loan funding. For the loan to be forgiven, the Company was required to formally apply for forgiveness, and potentially, could be required to pass an audit that it met the eligibility qualifications of the loan.

 In accounting for the terms of the PPP Loan, the Company is guided by ASC 470 Debt, and ASC 450 - 30 Gain contingency. Accordingly, it recorded the proceeds of the PPP Loan of $ 8,200 as debt and derecognized the liability when the loan was forgiven. The Company believed that the possibility of loan forgiveness was to be regarded as a contingent gain and therefore did not recognize the gain (and derecognize the loan) until all uncertainty was removed (i.e., all conditions for forgiveness are met). The Company applied for forgiveness, and on June 16, 2021, it was notified by BMO that the SBA remitted funds to BMO to repay the PPP Loan in full, evidencing that the PPP Loan was fully forgiven. The Company removed the balance of the PPP Loan from its consolidated balance sheet and recorded $ 8,200 in income from extinguishment of loan in its consolidated statement of operations in fiscal 2021.

 While the loan has been formally forgiven, under the terms of the PPP Loan, the Company remains subject to an audit by the SBA for a period of six years after forgiveness. The audit is intended to confirm the Company's eligibility for the PPP loan and the appropriateness of the PPP loan forgiveness. In accordance with ASC 450 Contingencies, the Company assessed the probability of failing the audit and being required to repay all or any portion of the PPP Loan. The Company is aware of the requirements and has retained all necessary documentation in support of its eligibility, including gross receipts calculations, supporting payroll expenses and related information. The Company believes that it has materially complied with all the requirements of the PPP and reasonably assured it would satisfy the requirements of an audit.

 Other lines of credit:

 The Company has established unsecured lines of credit, which may be withdrawn at the option of the banks. Under these arrangements, the Company has unused and available credit lines of $ 1,053 with a weighted average interest rate of 5.14 % as of June 30, 2024, and $ 1,057 with a weighted average interest rate of 5.1 % as of June 30, 2023.

Total engineering and development costs were $ 9,843 and $ 8,741 in fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are primarily recorded within Marketing, engineering and administration expenses on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

 N. PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

 The Company has non-contributory, qualified defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all domestic employees hired prior to October 1, 2003, and certain foreign employees. Domestic plan benefits are based on years of service, and, for salaried employees, on average compensation for benefits earned prior to January 1, 1997, and on a cash balance plan for benefits earned from January 1, 1997 through July 31, 2009, at which time the Company froze future accruals under domestic defined benefit pension plans. To reduce administration costs, in December 2022, the Company merged its domestic hourly and salaried defined benefit pension plans into a single plan. Due to the merger, an interim remeasurement was required which resulted in a net measurement loss (gain on liability offset by loss on assets) which increased the net liability from an expected amount of $ 1.5 million to a measured amount of $ 2.6 million. Lower future administrative costs are expected to be favorable to the net liability in subsequent measurements. The Company's funding policy for the plans covering domestic employees is to contribute an actuarially determined amount which falls between the minimum required contribution and maximum amount that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes.

 In addition, the Company has unfunded, non-qualified retirement plans for certain management employees and Directors. In the case of management employees, benefits are based on an annual credit to a bookkeeping account, intended to restore the benefits that would have been earned under the qualified plans, but for the earnings limitations under the Internal Revenue Code. In the case of Directors, benefits are based on years of service on the Board. All benefits vest upon retirement from the Company.

 In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company provides other postretirement benefits, including healthcare and life insurance benefits for certain domestic retirees. All employees retiring after December 31, 1992, and electing to continue healthcare coverage through the Company's group plan, are required to pay 100 % of the premium cost.

 The measurement date for the Company's pension and postretirement benefit plans in fiscal 2024 and 2023 was June 30.

 As discussed in Note A, during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company changed its accounting method related to the recognition of actuarial gains and losses for its pension and postretirement benefit plans. Under the new method, actuarial gains and losses are recognized in net periodic benefit costs upon annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis as triggering events warrant remeasurement. These changes have been applied retrospectively to prior years presented below. See Note A for further information regarding the impact of the change in accounting principle on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 Plan Assets

 The Company's Benefits Committee ("Committee"), a non-board management committee, oversees investment matters related to the Company's funded benefit plans. The Committee works with external actuaries and investment consultants on an ongoing basis to establish and monitor investment strategies and target asset allocations. The overall objective of the Committee's investment strategy is to earn a rate of return over time to satisfy the benefit obligations of the pension plans and to maintain sufficient liquidity to pay benefits and address other cash requirements of the pension plans. The Committee has established an Investment Policy Statement which provides written documentation of the Company's expectations regarding its investment programs for the pension plans, establishes objectives and guidelines for the investment of the plan assets consistent with the Company's financial and benefit-related goals, and outlines criteria and procedures for the ongoing evaluation of the investment program. The Company employs a total return on investment approach whereby a mix of investments among several asset classes are used to maximize long-term return of plan assets while avoiding excessive risk. Investment risk is measured and monitored on an ongoing basis through quarterly investment portfolio reviews, and annual liability measurements.

 The Company's pension plan weighted-average asset allocations at June 30, 2024 and 2023 by asset category were as follows:

 Due to market conditions and other factors, actual asset allocation may vary from the target allocation outlined above. The U.S. pension plans held 98,211 shares of Company stock with a fair market value of $ 1,157 ( 1.8 % of total plan assets) at June 30, 2024 and 98,211 shares with a fair market value of $ 1,106 ( 1.6 % of total plan assets) at June 30, 2023.

 The U.S. plans have a long-term return assumption of 7.0 %. This rate was derived based upon historical experience and forward-looking return expectations for major asset class categories.

 Fair value is defined as the price that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following hierarchy:

 Level I

 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments

 Level II

 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, or

 Unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or

 Other inputs that are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data

 Level III

 Use of one or more significant unobservable inputs

 (a) Common stock is valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. These securities include U.S. equity securities invested in companies that are traded on exchanges inside the U.S. and international equity securities invested in companies that are traded on exchanges outside the U.S.

 (b) Mutual funds are valued at the daily closing price as reported by the fund. Mutual funds held by the Company's funded benefit plans are open-end mutual funds that are registered with the Securities Exchange Commission. These funds are required to publish their daily net asset value ("NAV") and to transact at that price. The mutual funds held by the Company's funded benefit plans are deemed to be actively traded.

 (c) Annuity contracts represent contractual agreements in which payments are made to an insurance company, which agrees to pay out an income or lump sum amount at a later date. Annuity contracts are valued at fair value using the net present value of future cash flows.

 (d) In accordance with ASC 820 - 10, certain investments that were measured at net asset value per share (or its equivalent) have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the fair value of plan assets at the end of the year.

 The following table sets forth additional disclosures for the fair value measurement of the fair value of pension plan assets that calculate fair value based on NAV per share practical expedient as of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023:

 At June 30, 2024 the Company has net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") of approximately $ 19,249 and $ 30,536 for federal and state income tax purposes which will expire at various dates from fiscal year 2025 – 2044. Federal NOLs were generated subsequent to fiscal 2019 and have an indefinite carryover period. The Company has federal and state tax credit carryforwards of approximately $ 10,370 and $ 1,041, respectively, which will expire at various dates from fiscal 2026 – 2044.

 The Company maintains valuation allowances when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the tax provision in the period of change. In determining whether a valuation allowance is required, the Company takes into account such factors as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carry-back and carry-forward periods, and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of realization of a deferred tax asset. The Company has evaluated the likelihood of whether the net deferred tax assets would be realized and concluded that it is more likely than not that all of deferred tax assets would not be realized. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will not generate sufficient taxable income and foreign source income to realize all the domestic deferred tax assets, therefore, a valuation allowance in the amount of $ 24,035 and $ 22,345 have been recorded for fiscal years 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 The Company has not provided additional U.S. income taxes on cumulative earnings of its consolidated foreign subsidiaries that are considered to be reinvested indefinitely. The Company reaffirms its position that the earnings of those subsidiaries remain permanently invested and has no plans to repatriate funds from any permanently reinvested subsidiaries to the U.S. for the foreseeable future. These earnings relate to ongoing operations and were approximately $ 20,977 and $ 24,612 at June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively. Such earnings could become taxable upon the sale or liquidation of these foreign subsidiaries or upon dividend repatriation. The Company's intent is for such earnings to be reinvested by the subsidiaries or to be repatriated only when it would be tax effective through the utilization of foreign tax credits.

 Annually, the Company files income tax returns in various taxing jurisdictions inside and outside the United States. In general, the tax years that remain subject to examination are 2019 through 2024 for our major operations in Belgium, Japan, Netherlands, Singapore and Australia. The tax years open to examination in the U.S. are for years subsequent to fiscal 2019.

 The Company has approximately $ 766 and $ 774 of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 respectively, which, if recognized would impact the effective tax rate. No material changes are expected to the reserve during the next 12 months. The Company's policy is to accrue interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

 Below is a reconciliation of beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30:

 Substantially all of the Company's unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 3024, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, the amounts accrued for interest and penalties totaled $ 68 and $ 52, respectively, and are not included in the reconciliation above.

 P. CONTINGENCIES

 The Company is involved in litigation of which the ultimate outcome and liability to the Company, if any, are not presently determinable. Management believes that final disposition of such litigation will not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows, either individually or in the aggregate.

 Q. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

 To improve its fixed cost structure and monetize some of its under-utilized assets, the Company commenced the active marketing of several of its real estate properties. Such actions required the Company to reclassify these assets from property, plant and equipment to assets held for sale, at fair value less costs to sell, or net book value, whichever is lower. Fair value was determined using real estate broker estimates and would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. This assessment of fair value did not result in the Company recognizing a write-down of the carrying value of the assets during fiscal 2024 or 2024.

 In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company commenced the active marketing of a real estate property located in Nivelles, Belgium. This action required the Company to reclassify the assets from property, plant, and equipment to assets held for sale, at fair value less costs to sell or net book value, whichever is lower. Fair value was determined using real estate broker estimates and would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The real estate property's fair value less costs to sell exceeded its net book value. The Company reclassified the property's net book value of $ 2,801 from property, plant, and equipment to assets held for sale.

 In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company completed the sale of the real estate property located in Belgium and received $ 7,150 in proceeds, net of fees and recorded a gain of $ 4,161 in other operating income.

 In the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to sell certain machinery assets, inventory, and legal relationships of its boat management systems product line for $ 1.5 million, which $ 0.6 million was paid upon closing with the remainder to be paid in monthly equal installments over 11 months. As of June 30, 2024, the Company received substantially all of the purchase price, and cash proceeds received are presented within the changes in trade accounts receivable, net in the consolidated statement of cash flows. This action required the Company to reclassify these assets from property, plant and equipment and inventory to assets held for sale, at fair value less costs to sell, or net book value, whichever is lower. The fair value of the machinery assets was determined using local internal specialists. The machinery assets' fair value less costs to sell exceeded its net book value. The boat management systems inventory was valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value was determined using the offer amount from the buyer less costs to sell. This assessment resulted in the Company recognizing a write-down of the carrying value of its boat management systems inventory of $2.1 million (see Note C for further information regarding the impact of this transaction). The write-down was classified in the income statement as a component of cost of goods sold. The agreement closed October 30, 2023.

 R. EARNINGS PER SHARE

 The Company calculates basic earnings per share based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, while the calculation of diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted earnings per share excludes all potential common shares if their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect.

 S. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 The Company reports all derivative instruments on its consolidated balance sheets at fair value and establishes criteria for designation and effectiveness of transactions entered into for hedging purposes.

 As a global organization, the Company faces exposure to market risks, such as fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. To manage the volatility relating to these exposures, the Company enters into various derivative instruments from time to time under its risk management policies. The Company designates derivative instruments as hedges on a transaction basis to support hedge accounting. The changes in fair value of these hedging instruments offset in part or in whole corresponding changes in the fair value or cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. The Company assesses the initial and ongoing effectiveness of its hedging relationships in accordance with its policy. The Company does not purchase, hold or sell derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The Company's practice is to terminate derivative transactions if the underlying asset or liability matures or is sold or terminated, or if it determines the underlying forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring.

 Interest Rate Swaps Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

 The primary purpose of the Company's cash flow hedging activities is to manage the potential changes in value associated with interest payments on the Company's SOFR-based indebtedness. The Company records gains and losses on interest rate swap contracts qualifying as cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive loss to the extent that these hedges are effective and until the Company recognizes the underlying transactions in net earnings, at which time these gains and losses are recognized in interest expense on its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Cash flows from derivative financial instruments are classified as cash flows from financing activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. These contracts generally have original maturities of greater than twelve months.

 Net unrealized after-tax gains related to cash flow hedging activities that were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss were ($ 504) and ($ 688) for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The unrealized amounts in accumulated other comprehensive loss will fluctuate based on changes in the fair value of open contracts during each reporting period.

 The Company estimates that ($ 218) of net unrealized gains related to cash flow hedging activities included in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months.

 Derivatives Designated as Net Investment Hedges

 The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to its investment in net assets in foreign countries. As discussed in Note H, Debt, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company designated its euro denominated Revolving Loan, with a notional amount of 13,500, as a net investment hedge to mitigate the risk of variability in its euro denominated net investments in wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries. All changes in fair value of the euro revolver were then reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss along with the foreign currency translation adjustments on those foreign investments. Net unrealized after-tax gains related to net investment hedging activities that were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss were ($ 1,502) and ($ 1,272) for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 Foreign Currency Forward Contracts Not Designated as Hedges

 The Company primarily enters into forward exchange contracts to reduce the earnings and cash flow impact of non-functional currency denominated receivables and payables. These contracts are highly effective in hedging the cash flows attributable to changes in currency exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from these contracts offset the foreign exchange gains or losses on the underlying assets and liabilities being hedged. The maturities of the forward exchange contracts generally coincide with the settlement dates of the related transactions. Gains and losses on these contracts are recorded in other expense, net in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income as the changes in the fair value of the contracts are recognized and generally offset the gains and losses on the hedged items in the same period. The primary currency to which the Company was exposed in fiscal 2024 and 2023 was the euro. At June 30, 2024 and 2023, there were no significant forward exchange contracts outstanding.

 Other Derivative Instruments

 The Company does not utilize commodity price hedges to manage commodity price risk exposure. Likewise, the Company does not hedge the translation exposure represented by the net assets of its foreign subsidiaries.

 Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

 The Company's interest rate swaps and foreign currency forward contracts are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets using a discounted cash flow analysis that incorporates observable market inputs. These market inputs include foreign currency spot and forward rates, and various interest rate curves, and are obtained from pricing data quoted by various banks, third -party sources and foreign currency dealers involving identical or comparable instruments (Level 2).

 Counterparties to these foreign currency forward contracts have at least an investment grade rating. Credit ratings on some of the Company's counterparties may change during the term of the financial instruments. The Company closely monitors its counterparties' credit ratings and, if necessary, will make any appropriate changes to its financial instruments. The fair value generally reflects the estimated amounts that the Company would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date.

 As discussed in Note H, Debt, the Company's euro denominated Revolving Loan approximates fair value at June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, it would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
