Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure and Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

(

)

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sypris Solutions, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form

-Q and Article

of Regulation S-

of the SEC. Accordingly, pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain notes and other financial information included in audited financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The

December 31, 2019

consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited statements, but does

not

include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The Company's operations are domiciled in the United States (U.S.) and Mexico, and we serve a wide variety of domestic and international customers. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all material adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented, and the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented

not

misleading. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results for the

three

and

six

months ended

July 5, 2020

are

not

necessarily indicative of the results that

may

be expected for the year ending

December

31,

2020.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, for the year ended

December 31, 2019

as presented in the Company's Annual Report on Form

-K. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.

continues to spread throughout the United States and other countries across the world. As of the date of this filing, significant uncertainty exists concerning the magnitude of the impact and duration of the COVID-

pandemic. The Company's consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Such estimates and assumptions affect, among other things, the Company's long-lived asset valuation; inventory valuation; valuation of deferred income taxes and income tax contingencies; the allowance for doubtful accounts; and pension plan assumptions. Events and changes in circumstances arising after

July 5, 2020,

including those resulting from the impacts of COVID-

19,

will be reflected in management's estimates for future periods.

The Company has continued to operate at each location and sought to remain compliant with government regulations imposed due to the COVID-

pandemic. During periods of lower production, the Company is scheduling and performing certain preventative maintenance procedures on its equipment and is utilizing resources to continue making progress on certain of the strategic initiatives included in the Company's

2020

annual operating plan. The Company began to experience lower revenue late in the

first

quarter due to the COVID-

pandemic, and a more significant impact in the

second

quarter, especially within the Sypris Technologies group. While the Company expects the effects of the pandemic will negatively impact its results of operations, cash flows and financial position, management has implemented actions to mitigate the financial impact, to protect the health of its employees and to comply with government regulations at each location. Factors deriving from the COVID-

response that have or

may

negatively impact sales and gross margin in the future include, but are

not

limited to: limitations on the ability of our suppliers to manufacture, or procure from manufacturers, the material components we utilize in the manufacture of the products we sell, or to meet delivery requirements and commitments; limitations on the ability of our employees to perform their work due to illness caused by the pandemic or local, state, or federal orders requiring employees to remain at home; limitations on the ability of our customers to conduct their business and purchase our products; and limitations on the ability of our customers to pay us on a timely basis.

We are experiencing disruptions in our business as we implement modifications to preserve adequate liquidity and ensure that our business can continue to operate during this uncertain time. With respect to liquidity, we are evaluating and taking actions to reduce costs and spending across our organization. This includes reducing hiring activities, reducing compensation for our Chairman, President and CEO, certain other senior leadership and corporate personnel and our Board of Directors, and limiting discretionary spending. In addition, under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), we have deferred certain payroll taxes and pension funding payments into future years. We have also reduced anticipated spending on capital investment projects and are managing working capital to preserve liquidity during this crisis. In addition to these activities, during the

second

quarter, the Company secured a

$3.6

million term loan with BMO Harris Bank National Association (“BMO”), pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP Loan”) under the CARES Act. Proceeds from the PPP Loan have been used to retain workers and maintain payroll and make lease and utility payments.

While we are unable to determine or predict the nature, duration or scope of the overall impact the COVID-

pandemic will have on our business, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources, we will continue to actively monitor the situation and

may

take further actions that alter our business operations as

may

be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers and shareholders.

Notes to Financial Statements

Lessee, Operating and Finance Leases [Text Block]

(

)

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at its inception. The Company has entered into operating leases for real estate. These leases have initial terms which range from

years to

years, and often include

one

or more options to renew. These renewal terms can extend the lease term by

years, and will be included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. The Company's existing leases do

not

contain significant restrictive provisions; however, certain leases contain provisions for payment of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs by the Company. The lease agreements do

not

contain any residual value guarantees. Some of the real estate lease agreements include periods of rent holidays and payments that escalate over the lease term by specified amounts. All operating lease expenses are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, interest expense is recognized on the lease liability and the right-of-use asset is amortized over the lease term.

Some leases

may

require variable lease payments based on factors specific to the individual agreements. Variable lease payments for which we are typically responsible for include real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance expenses based on the Company's pro-rata share, which are excluded from the measurement of the lease liability. Additionally,

one

of the Company's real estate leases has lease payments that adjust based on annual changes in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). The leases that are dependent upon CPI are initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date and are included in the measurement of the lease liability. Incremental payments due to changes in the index are treated as variable lease costs and expensed as incurred.

These operating leases are included in “Operating lease right-of-use assets” on the Company's

July 5, 2020

Consolidated Balance Sheet, and represent the Company's right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The Company's obligations to make lease payments are included in “Operating lease liabilities, current portion” and “Operating lease liabilities, net of current portion” on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As of

July 5, 2020,

total right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities were approximately

$6,523,000

and

$7,352,000,

respectively. As of

December

31,

2019,

total right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities were approximately

$7,014,000

and

$7,747,000,

respectively.

We primarily use our incremental borrowing rate, which is updated quarterly, based on the information available at commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments. If readily available, we would use the implicit rate in a new lease to determine the present value of lease payments. The Company has certain contracts for real estate which

may

contain lease and non-lease components which it has elected to treat as a single lease component.

The Company has entered into various short-term operating leases, primarily for office equipment with an initial term of

twelve

months or less. Lease payments associated with short-term leases are expensed as incurred and are

not

recorded on the Company's balance sheet. The related lease expense for short-term leases was

not

material for the

three

Note 5 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Notes to Financial Statements

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block]

(

)

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a promised product or rendering a service to a customer. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the product or service (the “transaction price”). The Company's transaction price in its contracts with customers is generally fixed;

payment discounts, rebates or refunds are included within its contracts. The Company also does

not

provide service-type warranties nor does it allow customer returns. In connection with the sale of various parts to customers, the Company is subject to typical assurance warranty obligations covering the compliance of the electronics parts produced to agreed-upon specifications. Customer returns, when they occur, relate to quality rework issues and are

not

connected to any repurchase obligation of the Company.

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or render a service to a customer and is the unit of account to which the transaction price is allocated under ASC

606.

When a contract contains multiple performance obligations, we allocate the transaction price to the individual performance obligations using the price at which the promised goods or services would be sold to customers on a standalone basis. For most sales within our Sypris Technologies segment and a portion of sales within Sypris Electronics, control transfers to the customer at a point in time. Indicators that control has transferred to the customer include the Company having a present right to payment, the customer obtaining legal title and the customer having the significant risks and rewards of ownership. The Company's principal terms of sale are FOB Shipping Point, or equivalent, and, as such, the Company primarily transfers control and records revenue for product sales upon shipment.

For contracts where Sypris Electronics serves as a contractor for aerospace and defense companies under federally funded programs, we generally recognize revenue over time as we perform because of continuous transfer of control to the customer. This continuous transfer of control to the customer is supported by clauses in the contracts that allow the customer to unilaterally terminate the contract for convenience, pay us for costs incurred plus a reasonable profit and take control of any work in process. Because control is transferred over time, revenue is recognized based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation. We use labor hours incurred as a measure of progress for these contracts because it best depicts the Company's performance of the obligation to the customer, which occurs as we incur labor on our contracts. Under this measure of progress, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of labor hours incurred to date to the total estimated labor hours at completion of the performance obligation.

Our contract profit margins

may

include estimates of revenues for goods or services on which the customer and the Company have

not

reached final agreements, such as contract changes, settlements of disputed claims, and the final amounts of requested equitable adjustments permitted under the contract. These estimates are based upon management's best assessment of the totality of the circumstances and are included in our contract profit based upon contractual provisions and our relationships with each customer.

The majority of Sypris Electronics' contractual arrangements with customers are for

one

year or less. For the remaining population of non-cancellable contracts greater than

one

year we had

$29,074,000

of remaining performance obligations as of

July 5, 2020,

all of which were long-term Sypris Electronics' contracts. We expect to recognize approximately

40%

of our remaining performance obligations as revenue in

2020

and the balance in

2021.

Disaggregation of Revenue

and

Contract Balances

Differences in the timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and deferred revenue, customer deposits and billings in excess of revenue recognized (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets.

Contract assets

– Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under contracts where revenue is recognized over time and revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer, and the right to payment is subject to conditions other than the passage of time. Contract assets are generally classified as current assets in the consolidated balance sheet. The balance of contract assets as of

July

2020

and

December

31,

2019

were

$1,389,000

and

$906,000,

respectively, and are included within other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Contract liabilities

– Some of the Company's contracts within Sypris Electronics are billed as work progresses in accordance with the contract terms and conditions, either at periodic intervals or upon achievement of certain milestones. Often this results in billing occurring prior to revenue recognition resulting in contract liabilities. Additionally, the Company occasionally receives cash payments from customers in advance of the Company's performance resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are classified as either current or long-term in the consolidated balance sheet based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize revenue. As of

July

2019,

the contract liabilities balance was

$6,102,000,

which was included within accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of

December

31,

2019,

the contract liabilities balance was

$7,504,000,

of which

$5,769,000

was included within accrued liabilities and

$1,735,000

was included within other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Payments received from customers in advance of revenue recognition are

not

considered to be significant financing components because they are used to meet working capital demands that can be higher in the early stages of a contract.

The Company recognized revenue from contract liabilities of

$2,929,000

and

$4,645,000

during the

three

and

six

months ended

July 5, 2020,

respectively. The Company recognized revenue from contract liabilities of

$2,190,000

and

$3,234,000

during the

three

and

six

months ended

June 30, 2019,

respectively.

Practical expedients and exemptions

Sales commissions are expensed when incurred because the amortization period would have been

one

year or less. These costs are recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

We do

not

disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with original expected lengths of

one

year or less.

- Definition

The entire disclosure of revenue from contract with customer to transfer good or service and to transfer nonfinancial asset. Includes, but is not limited to, disaggregation of revenue, credit loss recognized from contract with customer, judgment and change in judgment related to contract with customer, and asset recognized from cost incurred to obtain or fulfill contract with customer. Excludes insurance and lease contracts.

Earnings

Per Common Share

The Company computes earnings per share using the

two

-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and participating securities. Restricted stock granted by the Company is considered a participating security since it contains a non-forfeitable right to dividends.

Our potentially dilutive securities include potential common shares related to our stock options and restricted stock. Diluted earnings per share considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a loss because the inclusion of the potential common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect. Diluted earnings per share excludes the impact of common shares related to our stock options in periods in which the option exercise price is greater than the average market price of our common stock for the period. There were

2,735,750

potential common shares excluded from diluted earnings per share for the

three

months ended

June 30, 2019.

For the

three

and

six

months ended

July 5, 2020

and the

six

months ended

June 30, 2019,

diluted weighted average common shares do

not

include the impact of any outstanding stock options and unvested compensation-related shares because the effect of these items on diluted net loss would be anti-dilutive.

A reconciliation of the weighted average shares outstanding used in the calculation of basic and diluted (loss) income per common share is as follows (in thousands):

Protection Program

During the

second

quarter of

2020,

the Company secured a

$3,558,000

term loan with BMO. Proceeds from the PPP Loan have been used to retain workers and maintain payroll and make lease and utility payments. The PPP Loan is evidenced by a promissory note in favor of BMO, as lender, with a principal amount of

$3,558,000

that bears interest at a fixed annual rate of

1.00%,

with the

first

six

months of principal and interest deferred and a maturity date of

April 2022.

The PPP Loan

may

be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.

The PPP Loan is unsecured and guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The Company

may

apply for forgiveness of the PPP Loan, with the amount which

may

be forgiven equal to the sum of payroll costs, covered rent and mortgage obligations, and covered utility payments incurred by the Company during the

-week period beginning upon receipt of funds from the PPP Loan, subject to limitations and calculated in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. Any forgiveness of the PPP Loan shall be subject to approval of the SBA and will require the Company and BMO to apply to the SBA for such treatment in the future. We intend to comply with the necessary requirements to seek forgiveness of all or a portion of the PPP Loan, but

assurance can be provided that we will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part. As a result, the Company is taking the approach that a portion of the PPP Loan is short-term and a portion is long-term, and has reflected such borrowing on the Company's consolidated balance sheet, as appropriate. The Company will record any amounts of the loan that are forgiven as a gain on extinguishment in the period in which legal release is received.

Note Payable – Related Party

The Company has received the benefit of cash infusions from Gill Family Capital Management, Inc. (“GFCM”) in the form of secured promissory note obligations totaling

$6,500,000

in principal as of

July

2020

and

December

2019.

GFCM is an entity controlled by the Company's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey T. Gill, and

one

of our directors, R. Scott Gill. GFCM, Jeffrey T. Gill and R. Scott Gill are significant beneficial stockholders of the Company. The promissory note bears interest at a rate of

8.0%

per year through

March 31, 2019

and, thereafter is reset on

April 1

of each year, at the greater of

8.0%

500

basis points above the

five

-year Treasury note average during the preceding

-day period, in each case, payable quarterly. The maturity dates for the obligation are as follows:

$2,500,000

of the obligation on

April

2021,

$2,000,000

April 1,

2023,

and the balance on

April

2025.

The note allows for up to an

-month deferral of payment for up to

60%

of the interest due on the portion of the notes maturing in

April

2021

and

2023.

During the

first

quarter of

2020,

the Company provided notice to GFCM of its intention to elect to defer the specified portion of the interest payments due beginning on

April 6, 2020.

Obligations under the promissory note are guaranteed by all of the subsidiaries and are secured by a

first

priority lien on substantially all assets of the Company.

Segment Data

The Company is organized into

two

business segments, Sypris Technologies and Sypris Electronics. The segments are each managed separately because of the distinctions between the products, markets, customers, technologies and workforce skills of the segments. Sypris Technologies manufactures forged and finished steel components and subassemblies, high-pressure closures and other fabricated products. Sypris Electronics is focused on circuit card and full “box build” manufacturing, high reliability manufacturing, systems assembly and integration, design for manufacturability and design to specification work. There was

intersegment net revenue recognized in any of the periods presented.

The Company includes the unallocated costs of its corporate office, including the employment costs of its senior management team and other corporate personnel, administrative costs and net corporate interest expense incurred at the corporate level under the caption “General, corporate and other” in the table below. Such unallocated costs include those for centralized information technology, finance, legal and human resources support teams, certain professional fees, director fees, corporate office rent, certain self-insurance costs and recoveries, software license fees and various other administrative expenses that are

not

allocated to our reportable segments. The unallocated assets include cash and cash equivalents maintained in its domestic treasury accounts and the net book value of corporate facilities and related information systems. The unallocated liabilities consist primarily of the related party notes payable. Domestic income taxes are calculated at an entity level and are

not

allocated to our reportable segments. Corporate capital expenditures and depreciation and amortization include items attributable to the unallocated fixed assets of the corporate office and related information systems.

Commitments and Contingencies

The provision for estimated warranty costs is recorded at the time of sale and periodically adjusted to reflect actual experience. The Company's warranty liability, which is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of

July 5, 2020

and

December 31, 2019

was

$542,000

and

$569,000,

respectively. The Company's warranty expense for the

three

and

six

months ended

July 5, 2020

and

June 30, 2019

was

not

material.

The Company bears insurance risk as a member of a group captive insurance entity for certain general liability, automobile and workers' compensation insurance programs, a self-insured worker's compensation program and a self-insured employee health program. The Company records estimated liabilities for its insurance programs based on information provided by the

third

-party plan administrators, historical claims experience, expected costs of claims incurred but

not

paid, and expected costs to settle unpaid claims. The Company monitors its estimated insurance-related liabilities on a quarterly basis. As facts change, it

may

become necessary to make adjustments that could be material to the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

The Company is involved in certain litigation and contract issues arising in the normal course of business. While the outcome of these matters cannot, at this time, be predicted in light of the uncertainties inherent therein, management does

not

expect that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company. Additionally, the Company believes its product liability insurance is adequate to cover all potential liability claims.

The Company accounts for loss contingencies in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Estimated loss contingencies are accrued only if the loss is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. With respect to a particular loss contingency, it

may

be probable that a loss has occurred but the estimate of the loss is within a wide range or undeterminable. If the Company deems an amount within the range to be a better estimate than any other amount within the range, that amount will be accrued. However, if

amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the minimum amount of the range is accrued.

The Company has various current and previously-owned facilities subject to a variety of environmental regulations. The Company has received certain indemnifications from either companies previously owning these facilities or from purchasers of those facilities. As of

July

2020

and

December 31, 2019,

amounts were accrued for any environmental matters.

December 27, 2017,

the U.S. Department of Labor (the “DOL”) filed a lawsuit alleging that the Company had misinterpreted the language of its Company's

401

(k) Plans (collectively, the “Plan”). The DOL does

not

appear to dispute that the Company reached such interpretation in good faith and after consulting with independent ERISA counsel. If the DOL's allegations were upheld by a court, the Company could be required to make additional contributions into the accounts of its Plan participants. The Company regards the DOL's allegations to be without merit and is continuing to vigorously defend the matter.

February

17,

2017,

several employees (“Lucas Plaintiffs”) of KapStone Charleston Kraft, LLC filed a lawsuit in South Carolina alleging that they had been seriously burned when they opened a hinged closure and a hot tar-like material spilled out. Among other claims, the Lucas Plaintiffs allege that Sypris Technologies, Inc. (“ST”) designed and manufactured the closure, that the closure was defective and that those defects had caused or contributed to their injuries. ST's motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction was denied on

February 28, 2020.

The Company regards these allegations to be without merit and any damages to be undeterminable at this time. The Company's general liability insurer has accepted the defense costs. The Company is continuing to vigorously defend the matter.

As of

July 5, 2020,

the Company had outstanding purchase commitments of approximately

$8,021,000,

primarily for the acquisition of inventory.

Notes to Financial Statements

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]

(

)

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes includes federal, state, local and foreign taxes. The Company's effective tax rate varies from period to period due to the proportion of foreign and domestic pre-tax income expected to be generated by the Company. The Company provides for income taxes for its domestic operations at a statutory rate of

21%

2020

and

2019

and for its foreign operations at a statutory rate of

30%

2020

and

2019.

Reconciling items between the federal statutory rate and the effective tax rate also include state income taxes, valuation allowances and certain other permanent differences.

The Company recognizes liabilities or assets for the deferred tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets or liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements in accordance with ASC

740,

Income Taxes (ASC

740

). These temporary differences will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years when the reported amounts of assets or liabilities are recovered or settled. ASC

740

requires that a valuation allowance be established when it is more likely than

not

that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will

not

be realized. The Company evaluates its deferred tax position on a quarterly basis and valuation allowances are provided as necessary. During this evaluation, the Company reviews its forecast of income in conjunction with other positive and negative evidence surrounding the realizability of its deferred tax assets to determine if a valuation allowance is needed. Based on its current forecast, the Company has established a valuation allowance against all U.S. deferred tax assets and a portion of its non-U.S. deferred tax assets. Until an appropriate level and characterization of profitability is attained, the Company expects to continue to maintain a valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets related to future U.S. and a portion of its non-U.S. tax benefits.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.
