ALLIENT INC

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION

Allient Inc. (“Allient” or the “Company”) is engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing, and selling precision motion, control, power, and structural composites to provide integrated system solutions as well as individual products, to a broad spectrum of customers throughout the world primarily for the industrial, vehicle, medical, and aerospace and defense markets.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using end of period exchange rates. Changes in reported amounts of assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries that occur as a result of changes in exchange rates between the foreign subsidiaries’ functional currencies and the U.S. dollar are included in foreign currency translation adjustment. Foreign currency translation adjustment is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of stockholders’ equity in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. Revenue and expense transactions use an average rate prevailing during the month of the related transaction. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of each of the foreign subsidiaries are included in the results of operations as incurred in other (income) expense, net.

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The financial data for the interim periods may not necessarily be indicative of results to be expected for the year.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

It is suggested that the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes to such statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 that was previously filed by the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)”. This improves financial reporting by requiring that public business entities disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is assessing the impact of adopting the standard on our consolidated financial statements.

2. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Performance Obligations

The Company considers control of most products to transfer at a single point in time when control is transferred to the customer, generally when the products are shipped in accordance with an agreement and/or purchase order. Control is defined as the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the product.

The Company satisfies its performance obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring goods and services in exchange for monetary consideration from the customer. The Company considers the customer’s purchase order, and the Company’s corresponding sales order acknowledgment as the contract with the customer. For some customers, control, and a sale, is transferred at a point in time when the product is delivered to a customer. For a limited number of contracts, for which revenue derived is not material in the periods presented, the Company recognizes revenue over time in proportion to costs incurred, over the life of the term of the performance obligation, or as the performance obligations are satisfied.

Sales, value add, and other taxes the Company collects concurrently with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

Nature of Goods and Services

The Company designs, manufactures, and sells precision motion, control, power, and structural components to provide integrated system solutions as well as individual products to end customers and original equipment manufacturers (“OEM’s”) through the Company’s own direct sales force and authorized manufacturers’ representatives and distributors. The Company’s products include brushed and brushless DC motors, brushless servo and torque motors, coreless DC motors, integrated brushless motor-drives, gearmotors, gearing, modular digital servo drives, motion controllers, incremental and absolute optical encoders, active and passive filters for power quality and harmonic issues, transformers, and other controlled motion-related products. The Company’s target markets include Industrial, Vehicle, Medical, and Aerospace & Defense.

Determining the Transaction Price

The majority of the Company’s contracts have an original duration of less than one year. For these contracts, the Company applies the practical expedient and therefore does not consider the effects of the time value of money. For multiyear contracts, the Company uses judgment to determine whether there is a significant financing component. Management has identified one contract that includes a significant financing component as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.** **

Contracts that management determines to include a significant financing component, in which the customer has made an up-front payment, are discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company incurs interest expense and accrues a contract liability. As the Company satisfies performance obligations and recognizes revenue from these contracts, interest expense is recognized simultaneously.

Contracts that management determines to include a significant financing component, in which revenue recognized for performance obligations that have been satisfied but for which amounts have not been billed, are discounted at a rate that reflects the customer’s creditworthiness. The Company realizes interest income and recognizes a contract asset. Interest income is recognized over the financing period.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers into geographical regions and target markets. The Company determines that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. As noted below in Note 17,Segment Information, the Company’s business consists ofone reportable segment. Revenue by geographic region is based on point of shipment origin.

A disaggregation of revenue by target market and geography is provided below:

Contract Balances

When the timing of the Company’s delivery of product is different from the timing of the payments made by customers, the Company recognizes either a contract asset (performance precedes customer payment) or a contract liability (customer payment precedes performance). Typically, contracts are paid in arrears and are recognized as receivables after the Company considers whether a significant financing component exists.

The opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract assets and liabilities are as follows:

The difference between the opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract assets and liabilities primarily results from the timing difference between the Company’s performance and the customer’s payment. In the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized revenue of $1,233 and $439, respectively, that was included in the opening contract liabilities balance.

Significant Payment Terms

The Company’s contracts with its customers state the final terms of the sale, including the description, quantity, and price of each product or service purchased. Payments are typically due in full within 30-60 days of delivery. Individual contracts with certain customers may include alternative payment schedules. Since the customer agrees to a stated rate and price in the contract that do not vary over the contract, the majority of contracts do not contain variable consideration.

Returns, Refunds, and Warranties

In the normal course of business, the Company does not accept product returns unless the item is defective as manufactured. The Company establishes provisions for estimated returns and warranties. All contracts include a standard warranty clause to guarantee that the product complies with agreed specifications.

3. INVENTORIES

Inventories include costs of materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead, and are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value, as follows:

4. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant, and equipment is classified as follows:

Depreciation expense was $3,087 and $3,188 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

5. GOODWILL

The change in the carrying amount of goodwill for the three months ended March 31, 2026 is as follows:

Intangible assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets consist of the following:

Amortization expense for intangible assets was $3,123 and $3,093 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Estimated future intangible asset amortization expense as of March 31, 2026 is as follows:

7. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Incentive Plans

The Company’s Stock Incentive Plans provide for the granting of stock awards, including restricted stock, stock options and stock appreciation rights, to employees and non-employees, including directors of the Company.

Restricted Stock

For the three months ended March 31, 2026,89,647 shares of unvested restricted stock were awarded at a weighted average market value of $62.06. Of the restricted shares granted,37,912 shares have performance-based vesting conditions. Stock-based compensation expense for awards with performance-based vesting conditions are reassessed each reporting period and recognized as expense based upon the probability that performance will be achieved. The value of the remaining shares awarded expected to vest is amortized to compensation expense over the related service period, which is normally three years, or over the estimated performance period. Shares of unvested restricted stock are generally forfeited if a recipient leaves the Company before the vesting date. Shares that are forfeited become available for future awards.

The following is a summary of restricted stock activity for the three months ended March 31, 2026:

Stock-based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, of $848 and $920 was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

8**. ACCRUED LIABILITIES**

Accrued liabilities consist of the following:

In line with the Company’s Simplify to Accelerate NOW strategy, during the first quarter of 2025, the Company began to create a state-of-the-art Fabrication Center of Excellence at the facility in Dothan, Alabama. Assembly operations from Dothan continue to be transferred into facilities in Tulsa, Oklahoma and Reynosa, Mexico.

One-time costs in 2026 are anticipated to be approximately $2 to $3 million, primarily related to employee severance and other personnel-related expenses, and are expected to be substantively paid by the end of 2026.

Restructuring expenses for this initiative, which are included in restructuring and business realignment costs in the condensed consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income, are as follows:

9. DEBT OBLIGATIONS

Debt obligations consisted of the following:

On March 1, 2024, the Company entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2024 Amended Credit Agreement”) for a $280 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”). The changes made to the Company’s previous credit facility by the 2024 Amended Credit Agreement include: i) providing for a $50 million accordion amount and ii) extending the term from February 12, 2025 to March 1, 2029. Additionally, the Company has entered into a $150 million fixed-rate private shelf facility (the “2024 Note Payable Agreement”) under which $50.0 million of borrowings occurred on March 21, 2024. These agreements, collectively, are referred to as the “2024 Credit and Note Payable Agreements”. Pursuant to the 2024 Note Payable Agreement, the Company may from time to time issue and sell, and the borrower may consider in its sole discretion the purchase of, in one or a series of transactions, senior notes of the Company in an aggregate principal amount of up to $150 million (“Shelf Notes”). The Shelf Notes will have a maturity date of no more than 10.5 years after the date of original issuance and may be issued through March 1, 2027, unless either party terminates such issuance right. Debt issuance costs of$3.2 million were incurred related to the 2024 Credit and Note Payable Agreements and are included within unamortized debt issuance costs noted above.

Borrowings under the Revolving Facility bear interest at the Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the 2024 Amended Credit Agreement) plus a margin of 1.25% to 2.50% or the Alternative Base Rate (as defined in the 2024 Amended Credit Agreement) plus a margin of 0.25% to 1.50%, in each case depending on the Company’s ratio of Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the 2024 Amended Credit Agreement) to Consolidated EBITDA (the “Leverage Ratio”). In addition, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of between 0.15% and 0.325% quarterly on the unused portion of the Revolving Facility, also based on the Company’s Leverage Ratio.

Financial covenants under the 2024 Credit and Note Payable Agreements require the Company to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of at least 3.0:1.0 at the end of each fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company’s Leverage Ratio at the end of any fiscal quarter shall not be greater than 4.25:1.0 through December 31, 2024 or greater than 3.75 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter thereafter; provided that the Company may elect to temporarily increase the Leverage Ratio by 0.5:1.0 following a material acquisition under the 2024 Credit and Note Payable Agreements. The 2024 Credit and Note Payable Agreements also include covenants and restrictions that limit the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its assets and enter into transactions with an affiliate of the Company on other than an arms’ length transaction. These covenants, which are described more fully in the 2024 Credit and Note Payable Agreements, to which reference is made for a complete statement of the covenants, were modified as of October 22, 2024, and are subject to certain exceptions. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of March 31, 2026.

The 2024 Credit and Note Payable Agreements also include customary events of default, including failure to pay principal, interest or fees when due, failure to comply with covenants, if any representation or warranty made by the Company is false or misleading in any material respect, default under certain other indebtedness, certain insolvency or receivership events affecting the Company and its subsidiaries, the occurrence of certain material judgments, the occurrence of certain ERISA events, the invalidity of the loan documents or a change in control of the Company. The amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility may be accelerated upon certain events of default.

The obligations under the 2024 Credit and Note Payable Agreements are secured by substantially all of the Company’s non-realty assets and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries.

On March 21, 2024, the Company issued and sold $50.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Series A Senior Notes due March 21, 2031 (the “Series A Notes”). The Series A Notes were issued pursuant to the 2024 Note Payable Agreement. The Series A Notes represent senior promissory notes of the Company and will bear interest at 5.96% and will mature on March 21, 2031. Interest on the Series A Notes will be payable quarterly on the 21st day of March, June, September and December in each year, commencing on June 21, 2024. Interest is computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months. There are no separate covenants relating to the Series A Notes. All additional borrowings are subject to the leverage ratio compliance. The Series A Notes may be prepaid at the option of the Company, in accordance with the terms of the 2024 Note Payable Agreement, at 100% of the principal amount to be prepaid plus accrued interest plus the defined “Make-Whole Amount,” if any. The Make-Whole Amount is an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the discounted value of the remaining schedule payments with respect to principal on the Series A Notes being prepaid over the amount of the prepaid principal.

As of March 31, 2026, the unused Revolving Facility was $158,038. The amount available to borrow under the 2024 Credit and Note Payable Agreements may be limited by the Company’s debt and EBITDA levels, which impacts its covenant calculations.

On October 22, 2024, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and a Second Amendment to the Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement (collectively, the “October 2024 Credit and Note Payable Amendments”). These amendments include provisions to increase the maximum Leverage Ratio to 4.5:1.0 for the quarter ending March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025,4.0:1.0 for the quarter ending September 30, 2025, and returning to 3.75:1.0 for the quarters ending December 31, 2025 and thereafter. From January 1, 2025 through September 30, 2025, borrowings under the Revolving Facility bore interest at Term SOFR plus a margin of 2.50% and a commitment fee of 0.325% on the unused portion of the Revolving Facility. Also, from October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025, the Series A Notes bore interest at 6.46%. Subsequently, the Series A Notes have returned to an interest rate of 5.960%.

10. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, and foreign exchange risk primarily through the use of derivative financial instruments.

The Company enters into foreign currency contracts with 30-day maturities to hedge its short-term balance sheet exposure, primarily intercompany, that are denominated in currencies (Euro, Mexican Peso, New Zealand Dollar, Chinese Renminbi, Swedish Krona, Canadian Dollar) other than the subsidiary’s functional currency and are adjusted to current values using period-end exchange rates. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in other (income) expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. To minimize foreign currency exposure, the Company had foreign currency contracts with notional amounts of $26,701 and $26,033 at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The foreign currency contracts are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value and resulting gains or losses are recorded in other (income) expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company had losses of $368 and $124, respectively on foreign currency contracts which is included in other (income) expense, net and generally offset the gains or losses from the foreign currency adjustments on the intercompany balances that are also included in other (income) expense, net.

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements on its variable-rate debt. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. In March 2022 the Company entered into an interest rate swap with a notional amount of$40,000 that matures in December 2026. In March 2023, the Company executed amendments to the existing swaps to amend the index on the interest rate derivatives from LIBOR to SOFR. These amendments had no material financial impact to the Company’s operations or financial position. In September 2024, the Company entered into an additional interest rate swap with a notional amount of$50,000 that matures in September 2027.

The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During 2026 and 2025, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company estimates that $705 will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense over the next twelve months related to its interest rate derivatives. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

The tables below present the effect of cash flow hedge accounting on other comprehensive income (“OCI”) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

The tables below present a gross presentation, the effects of offsetting, and a net presentation of the Company’s derivatives as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The net amounts of derivative assets or liabilities can be reconciled to the tabular disclosure of fair value. The tabular disclosure of fair value provides the location that derivative assets and liabilities are presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets:

Derivative assets:

Derivative liabilities:

The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company either defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.

11. FAIR VALUE

Authoritative guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The guidance establishes a framework for measuring fair value which utilizes observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs.

These two types of inputs create the following three – level fair value hierarchy:

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, debt obligations, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for these assets and liabilities approximate their fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments.

The following tables presents the Company’s financial assets (liabilities) that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, by level within the fair value hierarchy:

12. INCOME TAXES

The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the estimate of the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made. There is potential for volatility of the effective tax rate due to several factors, including changes in the mix of the pre-tax income and the jurisdictions to which it relates, changes in tax laws, settlements with taxing authorities and foreign currency fluctuations.

The effective income tax rate was 21.0% and 20.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively

On July 4, 2025, legislation commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law which, among other things, modifies the income tax treatment of research and development expenses, as well as includes revisions to bonus depreciation and international tax regimes. The effects of OBBBA are reflected in the results for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and there were no material impacts to income tax provision or the effective income tax rate.

13. LEASES

The Company has operating leases for office space, manufacturing facilities and equipment, computer equipment and automobiles. Many leases include one or more options to renew, some of which include options to extend the leases for a long-term period, and some leases include options to terminate the leases within 30 days. In certain of the Company’s lease agreements, the rental payments are adjusted periodically to reflect actual charges incurred for capital area maintenance, utilities, inflation and/or changes in other indexes.

Supplemental cash flow information related to the Company’s operating and finance leases for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was as follows:

The Company’s finance lease obligations relate to a manufacturing facility. Finance lease assets of$6,729 and $7,037 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, are included in property, plant and equipment, net. As of March 31, 2026, finance lease obligations of$472 are included inaccrued liabilities and $7,515 are included inlong-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2025, finance lease obligations of$486 are included inaccrued liabilities and $7,766 are included inlong-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The Company operates inone segment for the manufacture and marketing of specialty-controlled motion products and solutions for end user and OEM applications. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer and President, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources, monitoring budgets, and assessing performance for the entire Company. The measure of segment profit or loss utilized is consolidated net income. The CODM uses this measure to compare results to prior periods and during our budgeting and forecasting process to assess profitability and enable decision making. The reports reviewed by the CODM do not provide for any significant expense categories beyond those as reported on the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income. The accounting policies of the Company are described in Note 1Significant Accounting Policiesin the 2025 Form 10-K.

The CODM utilizes consolidated net income, which is available in our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, as the measurement for assessing financial performance.
