RBC Bearings Incorporated
Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)
1. Basis of Presentation
The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by RBC Bearings Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The interim financial statements included with this report have been prepared on a consistent basis with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2019. We condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual audited financial statements, which we prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP). As used in this report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, “RBC”, “RBCA” and the “Company” mean RBC Bearings Incorporated and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates another meaning.
These statements reflect all adjustments, accruals and estimates consisting only of items of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended September 28, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the entire fiscal year ending March 28, 2020. The three-month periods ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018 each include 13 weeks. The amounts shown are in thousands, unless otherwise indicated.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Accounting Policies [Textual]
The Company’s significant accounting policies are detailed in “Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 30, 2019. Significant changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting new accounting standards are discussed below.
Recent Accounting Standards Adopted
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The core principle of this ASU is that an entity should recognize on its balance sheet assets and liabilities arising from a lease. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a lease asset (right-of-use asset) representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on the lease classification as a finance or operating lease.
The Company adopted this accounting standard on March 31, 2019 and has elected the modified retrospective transition method which permits the application of the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognition of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company has elected not to apply the recognition requirements to short-term leases, and will recognize the lease payments in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. The Company has elected the following practical expedients (which must be elected as a package and applied consistently to all leases): an entity need not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; an entity need not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and an entity need not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company has also elected the practical expedient which permits the inclusion of lease and nonlease components as a single component and account for it as a lease. This election has been made for all asset classes. We also elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the reasonably certain lease term for existing leases which resulted in the extension of lease terms for certain existing leases.
7
The cumulative-effect of the changes
made to the balance sheet on the first day of adoption resulted in the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities for operating
lease commitments of $
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. For leases where the Company is the lessee, it recognizes lease assets and related lease liabilities at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The lease term is the noncancellable period for which a lessee has the right to use an underlying asset, including periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain not to exercise that option. For renewal options, the Company performs an assessment at commencement if it is reasonably likely to exercise the option. The assessment is based on the Company’s intentions, past practices, estimates and factors that create an economic incentive for the Company. Generally, the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise the renewal option in a lease contract, with the exception of some of our leased manufacturing facilities. While some of the Company’s leases include options allowing early termination of the lease, the Company historically has not terminated its lease agreements early unless there is an economic, financial or business reason to do so; therefore, the Company does not typically consider the termination option in its lease term at commencement.
Most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit interest rate. As a result, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.
Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an operating expense while the expense for finance leases is recognized as depreciation expense and interest expense using the accelerated interest method of recognition.
In February 2018, the
FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain
Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income which allows companies to reclassify stranded tax effects resulting from
the TCJA from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. These stranded tax effects refer to the tax amounts
included in accumulated other comprehensive income at the previous
8
Recent Accounting Standards Yet to Be Adopted
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The objective of this standard update is to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under this ASU, an entity should perform its annual goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity would recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, assuming the loss recognized does not exceed the total amount of goodwill for the reporting unit. The standard update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The new guidance will replace the current incurred loss approach with an expected loss model. The new expected credit loss impairment model will apply to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt instruments, net investments in leases, loan commitments and standby letters of credit. Upon initial recognition of the exposure, the expected credit loss model requires entities to estimate the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). The estimate of expected credit losses should consider historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics should be grouped together when estimating expected credit losses. ASU 2016-13 does not prescribe a specific method to make the estimate, so its application will require significant judgment. This ASU is effective for public companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after March 28, 2020 are not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
3. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company operates in four business segments with similar economic characteristics, including nature of the products and production processes, distribution patterns and classes of customers. Revenue is disaggregated within these business segments by our two principal end markets: aerospace and industrial. Comparative information of the Company’s overall revenues for the three and six-month periods ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018 are as follows:

Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance
obligations represent the transaction price of orders meeting the definition of a contract in the new revenue standard for which
work has not been performed or has been partially performed and excludes unexercised contract options. The duration of the majority
of our contracts, as defined by ASC 606, is less than one year. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient which
allows companies to exclude remaining performance obligations with an original expected duration of one year or less. Performance
obligations having a duration of more than one year are concentrated in contracts for certain products and services provided to
the U.S. government or its contractors. The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations
for such contracts with a duration of more than one year was approximately $
Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections affects accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets.
Contract Assets (Unbilled Receivables) - Pursuant to the over-time revenue recognition model, revenue may be recognized prior to the customer being invoiced. An unbilled receivable is recorded to reflect revenue that is recognized when (1) the cost-to-cost method is applied and (2) such revenue exceeds the amount invoiced to the customer.
Contract Liabilities (Deferred Revenue) - The Company may receive a customer advance or deposit, or have an unconditional right to receive a customer advance, prior to revenue being recognized. Since the performance obligations related to such advances may not have been satisfied, a contract liability is established. Advance payments are not considered a significant financing component as the timing of the transfer of the related goods or services is at the discretion of the customer.
10
These assets and liabilities
are reported on the consolidated balance sheets on an individual contract basis at the end of each reporting period. As of September
28, 2019 and March 30, 2019, accounts receivable with customers, net, were $

As of September 28, 2019, the Company did not have any contract assets classified as noncurrent on the consolidated balance sheets.
4. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The components of comprehensive income (loss) that relate to the Company are net income, foreign currency translation adjustments and pension plan and postretirement benefits.
The following summarizes the activity within each component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes:

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.
Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding using the treasury stock method. Common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options.
The table below reflects the calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding for each period presented as well as the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share:

| Diluted net income per common share | $ | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
At September 28, 2019, employee stock options and no restricted shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. At September 29, 2018, employee stock options and no restricted shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The inclusion of these employee stock options and restricted shares would be anti-dilutive.
6. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Short-term investments, if any, are comprised of equity securities and are measured at fair value by using quoted prices in active markets and are classified as Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.
7. Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, using the first-in, first-out method, and are summarized below:

Overview
We are a well-known international manufacturer and maker of highly engineered precision bearings and components. Our precision solutions are integral to the manufacture and operation of most machines and mechanical systems, reduce wear to moving parts, facilitate proper power transmission and reduce damage and energy loss caused by friction. While we manufacture products in all major bearings categories, we focus primarily on the higher end of the bearing and engineered component markets where we believe our value added manufacturing and engineering capabilities enable us to differentiate ourselves from our competitors and enhance profitability. We believe our unique expertise has enabled us to garner leading positions in many of the product markets in which we primarily compete. With 43 facilities, of which 33 are manufacturing facilities in four countries, we have been able to significantly broaden our end markets, products, customer base and geographic reach. We currently operate under four reportable business segments: Plain Bearings; Roller Bearings; Ball Bearings; and Engineered Products. The following further describes these reportable segments:
Plain Bearings. Plain bearings are produced with either self-lubricating or metal-to-metal designs and consists of several sub-classes, including rod end bearings, spherical plain bearings and journal bearings. Unlike ball bearings, which are used in high-speed rotational applications, plain bearings are primarily used to rectify inevitable misalignments in various mechanical components.
Roller Bearings. Roller bearings are anti-friction bearings that use rollers instead of balls. We manufacture four basic types of roller bearings: heavy-duty needle roller bearings with inner rings, tapered roller bearings, track rollers and aircraft roller bearings.
Ball Bearings. We manufacture four basic types of ball bearings: high precision aerospace, airframe control, thin section and commercial ball bearings which are used in high-speed rotational applications.
Engineered Products. Engineered Products consists of highly engineered hydraulics, fasteners, collets and precision components used in aerospace, marine and industrial applications.
Purchasers of bearings and engineered products include industrial equipment and machinery manufacturers, producers of commercial and military aerospace equipment such as missiles and radar systems, agricultural machinery manufacturers, construction, energy, mining, marine and specialized equipment manufacturers, marine products, automotive and commercial truck manufacturers. The markets for our products are cyclical, and we have endeavored to mitigate this cyclicality by entering into sole-source relationships and long-term purchase agreements, through diversification across multiple market segments within the aerospace and defense and diversified industrial segments, by increasing sales to the aftermarket and by focusing on developing highly customized solutions.
20
Currently, our strategy is built around maintaining our role as a leading manufacturer of precision-engineered bearings and components through the following efforts:
| ● | Developing innovative solutions. By leveraging our design and manufacturing expertise and our extensive customer relationships, we continue to develop new products for markets in which there are substantial growth opportunities. |
| ● | Expanding customer base and penetrating end markets. We continually seek opportunities to access new customers, geographic locations and bearing platforms with existing products or profitable new product opportunities. |
| ● | Increasing aftermarket sales. We believe that increasing our aftermarket sales of replacement parts will further enhance the continuity and predictability of our revenues and enhance our profitability. Such sales include sales to third party distributors and sales to OEMs for replacement products and aftermarket services. We will increase the percentage of our revenues derived from the replacement market by continuing to implement several initiatives. |
| ● | Pursuing selective acquisitions. The acquisition of businesses that complement or expand our operations has been and continues to be an important element of our business strategy. We believe that there will continue to be consolidation within the industry that may present us with acquisition opportunities. |
Outlook
Our net sales for the three-month period ended September 28, 2019 increased 5.2% compared to the same period last fiscal year. The increase in net sales was a result of a 10.2% increase in aerospace sales partially offset by a decrease of 2.8% in industrial sales. Excluding $3.9 million of sales associated with the Miami division sold in fiscal 2019, aerospace sales increased 14.4% year over year. The increase in aerospace markets was primarily due to the commercial and defense OEM and aftermarket business. Excluding $1.5 million of sales from the Swiss Tool acquisition in fiscal 2020, industrial sales decreased 5.0% year over year. The decrease in industrial sales was driven by energy and general industrial markets. Overall, excluding sales associated with the Miami division and Swiss Tool, net sales increased 6.8% year over year. Our backlog as of September 28, 2019 was $473.2 million compared to $429.9 million as of September 29, 2018.
The Company expects net sales to be approximately $177.0 million to $179.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. This would result in a growth rate of 3.2% to 4.4% on a year-over-year basis and 3.6% to 4.7% excluding $2.9 million in sales associated with our Miami division, which was sold in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, and $2.5 million of sales associated with Swiss Tool, which we acquired in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The third quarter will be impacted by approximately four to five fewer production and shipping days due to the holiday schedule.
Management believes that operating cash flows and available credit under all credit agreements will provide adequate resources to fund internal and external growth initiatives for the foreseeable future. As of September 28, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $36.4 million of which approximately $18.2 million was cash held by our foreign operations.

Income tax expense for the six-month period ended September 28, 2019 was $12.6 million compared to $9.8 million for the six-month period ended September 29, 2018. Our effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 28, 2019 was 17.0% compared to 14.5% for the six-month period ended September 29, 2018. The effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 28, 2019 of 17.0% includes $3.0 million of tax benefit associated with share-based compensation and $0.2 million of tax benefit associated with other permanent adjustments from filing the Company’s fiscal 2018 foreign tax returns. The effective income tax rate without these benefits and other items for the six-month period ended September 28, 2019 would have been 21.3%. The effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 29, 2018 of 14.5% includes $4.5 million of tax benefits associated with share-based compensation. The effective income tax rate without this benefit and other items for the six-month period ended September 29, 2018 would have been 21.3%.

Acquisition
On August 15, 2019, the Company, through its Schaublin SA subsidiary, acquired all of the outstanding shares of Vianel Holding AG (“Swiss Tool”) for a purchase price of approximately $33.8 million (CHF 33.0 million), subject to a working capital adjustment. Swiss Tool, which is based in Bürglen, Switzerland, owns Swiss Tool Systems AG and other subsidiaries which collectively develop and manufacture high precision boring and turning solutions for metal cutting machines under the Swiss Tool Systems name. The preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows: accounts receivable ($1.3 million), inventory ($6.0 million), other current assets ($0.6 million), fixed assets ($3.5 million), intangible assets ($13.6 million), operating lease assets ($2.9 million), other non-current assets ($0.2 million), accounts payable ($0.6 million), other current liabilities ($0.9 million), operating lease liabilities ($2.9 million), deferred tax liabilities ($3.5 million) and noncurrent liabilities ($2.0 million). The purchase price allocation, which resulted in goodwill of approximately $15.6 million, is not deductible for tax purposes and is subject to change pending final valuation of the asset and liabilities, including intangible assets and deferred income taxes. Swiss Tool is included in the Engineered Products reporting segment.
Segment Information
We have four reportable product segments: Plain Bearings, Roller Bearings, Ball Bearings and Engineered Products. We use gross margin as the primary measurement to assess the financial performance of each reportable segment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our business is capital-intensive. Our capital requirements include manufacturing equipment and materials. In addition, we have historically fueled our growth in part through acquisitions. We have historically met our working capital, capital expenditure requirements and acquisition funding needs through our net cash flows provided by operations, various debt arrangements and sale of equity to investors. We believe that operating cash flows and available credit under the Revolver and Foreign Revolver will provide adequate resources to fund internal and external growth initiatives for the foreseeable future.
Our ability to meet future working capital, capital expenditures and debt service requirements will depend on our future financial performance, which will be affected by a range of economic, competitive and business factors, particularly interest rates, cyclical changes in our end markets and prices for steel and our ability to pass through price increases on a timely basis, many of which are outside of our control. In addition, future acquisitions could have a significant impact on our liquidity position and our need for additional funds.
From time to time, we evaluate our existing facilities and operations and their strategic importance to us. If we determine that a given facility or operation does not have future strategic importance, we may sell, partially or completely, relocate production lines, consolidate or otherwise dispose of those operations. Although we believe our operations would not be materially impaired by such dispositions, relocations or consolidations, we could incur significant cash or non-cash charges in connection with them.
Liquidity
As of September 28, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $36.4 million of which approximately $18.2 million was cash held by our foreign operations. We expect that our undistributed foreign earnings will be re-invested indefinitely for working capital, internal growth and acquisitions for and by our foreign entities.
Domestic Credit Facility
On January 31, 2019, the Company amended the 2015 credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer, and the other lenders party thereto (the “2015 Credit Agreement”). The 2015 Credit Agreement as so amended (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) now provides the Company with a $250.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) in place of the revolver provided in the 2015 Credit Agreement. The Revolver expires on January 31, 2024. Debt issuance costs associated with the Amended Credit Agreement totaled $0.9 million and will be amortized through January 31, 2024 along with the unamortized debt issuance costs remaining from the 2015 Credit Agreement.
Amounts outstanding under the Revolver generally bear interest at (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1% and (3) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1%, or (b) LIBOR plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA at each measurement date. Currently, the Company’s margin is 0.00% for base rate loans and 0.75% for LIBOR loans.
The Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants, including among other things, a financial covenant to maintain a ratio of consolidated net debt to adjusted EBITDA not greater than 3.50 to 1. The Amended Credit Agreement allows the Company to, among other things, make distributions to shareholders, repurchase its stock, incur other debt or liens, or acquire or dispose of assets provided that the Company complies with certain requirements and limitations of the Amended Credit Agreement. As of September 28, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants.
The Company’s domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company’s obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement and the domestic subsidiaries’ guarantee are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the domestic assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries.
31
Approximately $3.9 million of the Revolver is being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure the Company’s obligations relating to certain insurance programs. As of September 28, 2019, $1.7 million in unamortized debt issuance costs remain. The Company has the ability to borrow up to an additional $236.9 million under the Revolver as of September 28, 2019.
Foreign Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility
On August 15, 2019, one of our foreign divisions, Schaublin SA ("Schaublin"), entered into two separate credit agreements (the "Schaublin Credit Agreements") with Credit Suisse (Switzerland) Ltd. to (i) finance the acquisition of Swiss Tool, which is discussed in further detail in Note 13, and (ii) provide future working capital. The Schaublin Credit Agreements provided Schaublin with a CHF 15.0 million (approximately $15.4 million) term loan (the "Foreign Term Loan"), which expires on August 15, 2024 and a CHF 15.0 million (approximately $15.4 million) revolving credit facility (the "Foreign Revolver"), which continues in effect until terminated by either Schaublin or Credit Suisse. Debt issuance costs associated with the Schaublin Credit Agreements totaled CHF 0.3 million (approximately $0.3 million) and will be amortized throughout the life of the credit agreements.
Amounts outstanding under the Foreign Term Loan and the Foreign Revolver generally bear interest at LIBOR plus a specified margin. The applicable margin is based on Schaublin’s ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA at each measurement date. Currently, Schaublin’s margin is 2.00%.
The Foreign Credit Agreements require Schaublin to comply with various covenants which are tested annually on March 31. These covenants include, among other things, a financial covenant to maintain a ratio of consolidated net debt to adjusted EBITDA not greater than 3.00 to 1 as of March 31, 2020 and not greater than 2.50 to 1 as of March 31, 2021 and thereafter. Schaublin is also required to maintain an economic equity of CHF 20.0 million at all times. The Foreign Credit Agreements allow Schaublin to, among other things, incur other debt or liens and acquire or dispose of assets provided that Schaublin complies with certain requirements and limitations of the Foreign Credit Agreements. As of September 28, 2019, Schaublin was in compliance with all such covenants.
Schaublin’s parent company, Schaublin Holding, has guaranteed Schaublin’s obligations under the Foreign Credit Agreements. Schaublin Holding’s guaranty and the Foreign Credit Agreements are secured by a pledge of the capital stock of Schaublin. In addition, the Foreign Term Loan is secured with pledges of the capital stock of the top company and the three operating companies in the Swiss Tool System group of companies.
As of September 28, 2019, there was approximately $9.3 million outstanding under the Foreign Revolver and approximately $15.1 million outstanding under the Foreign Term Loan. As of September 28, 2019, approximately $0.3 million in unamortized debt issuance costs remain. Schaublin has the ability to borrow up to an additional $5.9 million under the Foreign Revolver as of September 28, 2019.
Schaublin’s required future annual principal payments for the next five years and thereafter are $0 for fiscal 2020, approximately $12.3 million for fiscal 2021, approximately $3.0 million for each year from fiscal 2022 through fiscal 2024 and approximately $3.0 million thereafter.
Other Notes Payable
On October 1, 2012, Schaublin purchased the land and building that it occupied and had been leasing for approximately $14.9 million. Schaublin obtained a 20-year fixed-rate mortgage of approximately $9.9 million at an interest rate of 2.9%. The balance of the purchase price of approximately $5.1 million was paid from cash on hand. The balance on this mortgage as of September 28, 2019 was approximately $6.1 million.

During the first six months of fiscal 2020, we generated cash of $64.6 million from operating activities compared to generating cash of $57.9 million for fiscal 2019. The increase of $6.7 million for fiscal 2020 was mainly a result of the favorable impact of the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $3.8 million and an increase in net income of $4.2 million offset by non-cash charges of $1.3 million. The favorable change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily the result of an increase in the amount of cash being provided by working capital items as detailed in the table below, while the reduction of non-cash charges resulted from a decrease of $2.5 million in deferred taxes, $0.3 million of amortization of deferred financing costs, $1.0 million from extinguishment of debt, and $0.3 million of amortization of intangible assets offset by an increase in depreciation of $0.7 million, $2.0 million of share-based compensation charges, and $0.1 million of other non-cash charges.
The following chart summarizes the favorable change in operating assets and liabilities of $3.8 million for fiscal 2020 versus fiscal 2019 and the unfavorable change of $26.7 million for fiscal 2019 versus fiscal 2018.

During fiscal 2020, we used $53.8 million for investing activities as compared to $15.9 million for fiscal 2019. This increase in cash used was attributable to the $33.8 million acquisition of Swiss Tool in fiscal 2020, an increase of $2.5 million in capital expenditures and a reduction of $1.6 million in proceeds received in fiscal 2020 from the sale of assets.
During fiscal 2020, we used $5.0 million from financing activities compared to using $34.4 million for fiscal 2019. This decrease in cash used was primarily attributable to proceeds received from borrowings of $24.8 million for the acquisition of Swiss Tool and $20.0 million less payments made on outstanding debt, partially offset by $8.9 million fewer proceeds from the exercise of stock options, $6.3 million of additional treasury stock purchases, and $0.2 million of finance fees paid in connection with the credit facilities.
33
Capital Expenditures
Our capital expenditures were $20.2 million for the six-month period ended September 28, 2019. In addition, we expect to make additional capital expenditures of $12.0 to $17.0 million during fiscal 2020 in connection with our existing business. We expect to fund fiscal 2020 capital expenditures principally through existing cash and internally generated funds. We may also make substantial additional capital expenditures in connection with acquisitions.
Other Matters
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We believe the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the Consolidated Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our fiscal 2019 Annual Report, incorporated by reference in our fiscal 2019 Form 10-K, describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the first six months of fiscal 2020 other than those described within Note 2 of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 28, 2019, we had no significant off-balance sheet arrangements other than $3.9 million of outstanding standby letters of credit, all of which were under the Revolver.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risks, which arise during the normal course of business from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rates. We currently have variable rate debt outstanding under our credit agreements. We regularly evaluate the impact of interest rate changes on our net income and cash flow and take action to limit our exposure when appropriate.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. Our Swiss operations utilize the Swiss franc as the functional currency, our French and German operations utilize the euro as the functional currency and our Polish operations utilize the Polish zloty as the functional currency. As a result, we are exposed to risk associated with fluctuating currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and these currencies. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in earnings. Approximately 8% of our net sales were impacted by foreign currency fluctuations for the three-month period ended September 28, 2019 compared to 8% for the same period in the prior year. Approximately 8% of our net sales were impacted by foreign currency fluctuations for the six-month period ended September 28, 2019 compared to 8% for the same period in the prior year. We expect that this proportion is likely to increase as we seek to increase our penetration of foreign markets, particularly within the aerospace and defense markets. Foreign currency transaction exposure arises primarily from the transfer of foreign currency from one subsidiary to another within the group, and to foreign currency denominated trade receivables. Unrealized currency translation gains and losses are recognized upon translation of the foreign operations’ balance sheets to U.S. dollars. Because our financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars, changes in currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies have had, and will continue to have, an impact on our earnings. We periodically enter into derivative financial instruments in the form of forward exchange contracts to reduce the effect of fluctuations in exchange rates on certain third-party sales transactions denominated in non-functional currencies. Based on the accounting guidance related to derivatives and hedging activities, we record derivative financial instruments at fair value. For derivative financial instruments designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on these hedges is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, and is reclassified into earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. As of September 28, 2019, we had no derivatives.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 28, 2019. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 28, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were (1) designed to ensure that information relating to our Company required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and (2) effective, in that they 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.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the three-month period ended September 28, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
On May 21, 2019, the Board authorized us to repurchase up to $100.0 million of our common stock from time to time on the open market, in block trade transactions, and through privately negotiated transactions, in compliance with SEC Rule 10b-18 depending on market conditions, alternative uses of capital, and other relevant factors. Purchases may be commenced, suspended, or discontinued at any time without prior notice. This repurchase authorization terminates and replaces the $50.0 million stock repurchase program authorized by the Board in 2013.
Total share repurchases under the 2019 plan for the three months ended September 28, 2019 are as follows:
| Period | Total number of shares purchased | Average price paid per share | Number of shares purchased as part of the publicly announced program | Approximate dollar value of shares still available to be purchased under the program (000’s) | ||||||||||||

| Total | 2,048 | $ | 163.11 | 2,048 | ||||||||||||
The 2013 plan was terminated on May 21, 2019, therefore, there were no share repurchases during the three months ended September 28, 2019 under the plan.

Exhibit 4.1
RBC BEARINGS INCORPORATED
Description of Capital Stock
General
The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of RBC Bearings Incorporated, a Delaware corporation, authorizes RBC to issue (i) 60,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share.
Common Stock
Voting Rights. Each outstanding share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of RBC’s stockholders. Shares of Common Stock are not entitled to cumulative voting. RBC has a staggered Board of Directors divided into three classes, each of which is up for election every third year so that each director serves a three-year term until his or her class comes up for election. Directors are elected by a majority of the votes cast.
Dividends. Subject to the dividend rights of the holders of any outstanding Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably dividends out of assets legally available therefor at such times and in such amounts as RBC’s Board of Directors may from time to time determine. RBC does not currently pay regular dividends on the Common Stock.
Liquidation Rights. Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of RBC’s affairs and subject to the liquidation rights of the holders of any outstanding Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in RBC’s assets that are legally available for distribution after payment of all RBC’s debts and liabilities.
No Other Rights. The Common Stock is not convertible or redeemable, has no sinking fund rights, and is not entitled to preemptive rights to purchase, subscribe for or otherwise acquire any unissued or treasury shares or other securities. Delaware law does not require stockholder approval for any issuance of authorized shares. However, the listing requirements of Nasdaq (which would apply so long as the Common Stock is listed on Nasdaq) require stockholder approval of certain issuances equal to or exceeding 20% of the then outstanding voting power or then outstanding number of shares of Common Stock.
Listing. Shares of Common Stock are listed on the Nasdaq National Market System under the symbol “ROLL.”
Transfer Agent. The transfer agent for the Common Stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.
Preferred Stock
The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. RBC’s Board of Directors, without further action by the stockholders, has the authority to determine or alter the powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions granted to or imposed on unissued shares of Preferred Stock, and to determine the number of shares constituting any series of Preferred Stock. Preferred Stock terms that the Board of Directors could establish include those relating to voting, dividends, redemption, conversion, exchange, sinking fund, preemption, liquidation and other rights, preferences and privileges.
At this time, RBC has not issued any shares of Preferred Stock or established the terms of any series of Preferred Stock.
Anti-Takeover Provisions of RBC’s Charter Documents
Provisions of RBC’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control that stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions that might benefit stockholders or in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. These provisions may also prevent or frustrate attempts by RBC’s stockholders to replace or remove management. These include:
| ● | The Board of Directors is divided into three classes so that each director comes up for re-election only once in any three-year period; |
| ● | The Board of Directors has the ability to do the following without stockholder approval: (i) issue additional shares of Common Stock, (ii) set the term of and issue Preferred Stock, (iii) amend the bylaws, and (iv) fill vacancies on the Board of Directors; |
| ● | Special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by the Board of Directors; and |
| ● | Stockholder action may be taken only at an annual or special meeting and not by written consent. |
Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law
RBC is subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with any “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless:
| (1) | such transaction is approved by the corporation’s board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder obtains such status, |
| (2) | upon consummation of such transaction, the interested stockholder beneficially owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, or |
| (3) | the business combination is approved by both the corporation’s board of directors and the affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder. |
A “business combination” includes mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in financial benefit to the interested stockholder. An “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within three years, did own) beneficially 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock.
Section 203 could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts with respect to RBC and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire RBC even though such a transaction may offer stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.
