WOODWARD, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In thousands, except per share amounts)

(Unaudited)

 i Note 1. Basis of presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Woodward, Inc. (“Woodward” or the “Company”) as of June 30, 2019 and for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, included herein, have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly Woodward’s financial position as of June 30, 2019, and the statements of earnings, comprehensive earnings, cash flows, and changes in stockholders’ equity for the periods presented herein. The results of operations for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year. Dollar and share amounts contained in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are in thousands, except per share amounts.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements 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.

These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Woodward’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC and other financial information filed with the SEC.

Management is required to use estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the reported revenues and expenses recognized during the reporting period, and certain financial statement disclosures, in the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein. Significant estimates in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include allowances for uncollectible amounts, net realizable value of inventories, variable consideration including customer rebates earned and payable and early payment discounts, warranty reserves, useful lives of property and identifiable intangible assets, the evaluation of impairments of property, the provision for income tax and related valuation reserves, the valuation of assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations, the valuation of derivative instruments, assumptions used in the determination of the funded status and annual expense of pension and postretirement employee benefit plans, the valuation of stock compensation instruments granted to employees, board members and any other eligible recipients, estimates of total lifetime sales used in the recognition of revenue of deferred material rights and balance sheet classification of the related contract liability, estimates of total sales contract costs when recognizing revenue under the cost-to-cost method, and contingencies. Actual results could vary from Woodward’s estimates.

In the September 30, 2018 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, “Accounts receivable” has increased by $ i 183 and “Other current assets” has decreased by $ i 183, reflecting the reclassification of current unbilled receivables to “Accounts receivable” in order to conform to the current year presentation.

 i Note 2. New accounting standards

From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”).

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General (Topic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.” ASU 2018-14 amends ASC 715 to add, remove, and modify disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The ASU’s changes to disclosures aim to improve the effectiveness of ASC 715’s disclosure requirements under the FASB’s disclosure framework project. ASU 2018-14 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 (fiscal year 2022 for Woodward). ASU 2018-14 does not impact the interim disclosure requirements of ASC 715. Upon adoption, the amendments in ASU 2018-14 should be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. Early adoption is permitted. Woodward expects to adopt the new and modified disclosures requirements of this new guidance in fiscal year 2022.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, “Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2018-02 allows a reclassification from

8


accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the enactment of tax reform under H.R.1, “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Titles II and V of the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2018” (the “Tax Act”) (also known as “The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act”), and provides guidance on the disclosure requirements regarding the stranded tax effects. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (fiscal year 2020 for Woodward), and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 may be applied retrospectively in the period of adoption to all periods in which the effect of the change in the United States (“U.S.”) federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Act is recognized or may be applied as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Woodward is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of the new guidance and has not yet elected the method of adoption it will apply. Woodward expects to adopt the new guidance under ASU 2018-02 in fiscal year 2020. Upon adoption, if Woodward elects to reclassify under ASU 2018-02, a portion of accumulated other comprehensive earnings would be reclassified to retained earnings.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.” ASU 2017-07 requires that the service cost component of net periodic benefit costs from defined benefit and other postretirement benefit plans be included in the same statement of earnings captions as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the covered employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are presented in the statement of earnings separately from service costs. ASU 2017-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017 (fiscal year 2019 for Woodward). Following adoption, only service costs will be eligible for capitalization into manufactured inventories, which should reduce diversity in practice. The amendments of ASU 2017-07 must be applied retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of net periodic benefit costs from defined benefit and other postretirement benefit plans in the statement of earnings and prospectively, on and after the effective date, for the capitalization of the service cost component into manufactured inventories. Woodward adopted the new guidance effective October 1, 2018 and concluded it had no impact on net earnings. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2017-07, only the service component of net periodic benefit costs from defined benefit and other postretirement benefit plans are included in cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses. All other net periodic benefit costs, other than interest cost, are included in other expense (income), net. The interest cost component of net periodic benefit costs is included in interest expense as Woodward believes it is more similar to the elements within interest expense than other expense (income), net, which combines several elements that are heterogeneous (see Note 17, Other (income) expense, net.), thus improving consistency for users of the financial statements.

The following table shows the impact of retrospectively applying this guidance to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2018.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory.” ASU 2016-16 eliminates the current U.S. GAAP exception deferring the tax effects of intercompany asset transfers (other than inventory) until the transferred asset is sold to a third party or otherwise recovered through use. ASU 2016-16 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 (fiscal year 2019 for Woodward), including interim periods within the year of adoption. Woodward adopted the new guidance on October 1, 2018. Modified retrospective adoption is required with any cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The cumulative impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-16 of $ i 1,005 was recognized at the date of

9


adoption as a decrease to both retained earnings and other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As a result of adoption, Woodward will recognize the tax consequences of intercompany asset transfers in the buyer’s and seller’s tax jurisdictions when the transfer occurs, even though the pre-tax effects of these transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 adds a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) impairment model to U.S. GAAP that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Modified retrospective adoption is required with any cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 (fiscal year 2021 for Woodward), including interim periods within the year of adoption. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (fiscal year 2020 for Woodward), including interim periods within those fiscal years. Woodward expects to adopt ASU 2016-13 in fiscal year 2021. Woodward does not expect the application of the CECL impairment model to have a significant impact on Woodward’s allowance for uncollectible amounts for accounts receivable and notes receivable from municipalities.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief,” which provides transition relief for entities adopting ASU 2016-13. Specifically, ASU 2019-05 amends ASU 2016-13 to allow companies to irrevocably elect, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the fair value option for financial instruments that (i) were previously recorded at amortized cost and are within the scope of the credit losses guidance in ASC 326-20, (ii) are eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10, and (iii) are not held-to-maturity debt securities. For entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, the amendments in ASU 2019-05 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods therein. An entity may early adopt the ASU in any interim period after its issuance if the entity has adopted ASU 2016-13. For all other entities, the effective date will be the same as the effective date of ASU 2016-13. Woodward expects to adopt ASU 2019-05 in fiscal year 2021. Woodward does not expect to elect the fair value option for its financial instruments upon the adoption of both ASU 2016-13 and ASU 2019-05.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements,” (collectively with ASU 2016-02, “ASC 842”) which amends ASU 2016-02 to provide organizations with a new (and optional) transition method permitting the recognition of a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings on the date of adoption, rather than requiring retrospective restatement of prior periods. The purpose of ASC 842 is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities except for short-term leases on the balance sheet, and provide additional disclosure information about leasing arrangements. ASC 842 modifies the definition of a lease to clarify that an arrangement contains a lease when such arrangement conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset. ASC 842 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (fiscal year 2020 for Woodward), including interim periods within the year of adoption. Woodward will adopt ASC 842 on October 1, 2019, the first day of fiscal year 2020. Originally under ASC 842, an organization was required upon adoption to recognize and measure leases beginning in the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach and restate the financial statements for all periods presented. Woodward expects to elect the new transition method resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings on October 1, 2019.

Woodward is currently assessing the impact this guidance may have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including which of its existing lease arrangements will be impacted by the new guidance. In anticipation of adopting ASC 842 on October 1, 2019, Woodward has developed a comprehensive project plan, established a cross-functional global project team, and engaged third-party subject matter experts. The project plan includes reviewing various forms of leases, analyzing the optional practical expedients available in ASC 842, and updating Woodward’s business processes and controls to meet the requirements of ASU 2016-02, as necessary. Woodward expects the most significant effects of the adoption of ASC 842 will be the recognition of operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheets and changes to the accounting for the Company’s loss reserve on contractual lease commitments. Rent expense for all operating leases in fiscal year 2018, none of which was recognized on the balance sheet, was $ i 8,348. As of September 30, 2018, future minimum rental payments required under operating leases, none of which were recognized on the balance sheet, were $ i 26,020.

 

 i Note 3. Revenue

Adoption of ASC 606

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and has subsequently issued several supplemental and/or clarifying ASUs (collectively “ASC 606”). ASC 606 prescribes a single common revenue standard that replaces most existing U.S. GAAP revenue recognition guidance. Woodward adopted ASC 606 on October 1, 2018 and elected the modified retrospective transition method. The results for periods prior to fiscal year 2019 were not

10


adjusted for the new standard and the cumulative effect of the change in accounting of $ i 28,927, as previously reported, was recognized as a net increase to retained earnings at the date of adoption.

Woodward has elected to apply the modified retrospective method only to contracts that were not completed as of October 1, 2018. As a practical expedient under ASC 606, Woodward elected to reflect the aggregate effect of all modifications that occurred before the beginning of fiscal year 2019 to contracts for which Woodward had not recognized all revenue as of October 1, 2018 as part of the adjustment to retained earnings at the date of adoption.

Subsequent to the adoption of ASC 606 and the issuance of Woodwards unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three-months ended December 31, 2018 and the three and six-months ended March 31, 2019, Woodward’s management identified an inconsistency in the application of ASC 606. The inconsistency resulted in errors that were cumulatively not material in determining the percentage of completion calculation on over time product revenue recognition, which caused the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the quarters ended December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019, as well as the cumulative impact of the adoption of ASC 606 on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of October 1, 2018, to be misstated by amounts that management concluded were not material. Woodward evaluated the errors and, based on an analysis of the relevant quantitative and qualitative factors, determined the impact was not material to Woodward’s Consolidated Financial Statements for any prior annual or interim period. Therefore, management concluded that amendments of previously filed reports are not required.

Woodward corrected the errors as of the date of adoption by revising the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of October 1, 2018 (see table in “Financial statement impact of the adoption of ASC 606” below). After revision, the cumulative effect of the change in accounting recognized as a net increase to retained earnings at the date of adoption was determined to be $ i 38,745, an increase of $ i 9,818 from the amount originally recorded. Retained earnings as of April 1, 2019 increased by a corresponding amount in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity for the three-months ended June 30, 2019.

To correct the errors for the three-months ended December 31, 2018 and for the three and six-months ended March 31, 2019, Woodward made an out-of-period correction in the three-months ended June 30, 2019. The correction resulted in increases to net sales of $ i 13,614, earnings before income taxes of $ i 8,041, net earnings of $ i 6,037, and diluted earnings per share of $ i 0.09 for the three-months ended June 30, 2019, the majority of which relates to Woodward’s Aerospace segment (see table in “Financial statement impact of the adoption of ASC 606” below).

 i Revenue Recognition Policy

Revenue is recognized on contracts with Woodward’s customers for arrangements in which quantities and pricing are fixed and/or determinable and are generally based on customer purchase orders, often within the framework of a long-term supply arrangement with the customer. Woodward has determined that it is the principal in its sales transactions, as Woodward is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promised performance obligations, has discretion to establish the selling price, and generally assumes the inventory risk. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer a distinct product or service to the customer. Woodward recognizes revenue for performance obligations within a customer contract when control of the associated product or service is transferred to the customer. Some of Woodward’s contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation, while other contracts contain multiple performance obligations. Each product within a contract generally represents a separate performance obligation as Woodward does not provide significant installation and integration services, the products do not customize each other, and the products can function independently of each other.

A contract's transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the customer obtains control of the associated product or service. When there are multiple performance obligations within a contract, Woodward generally uses the observable standalone sales price for each distinct product or service within the contract to allocate the transaction price to the distinct products or services. In instances when a standalone sales price for each product or service is not observable within the contract, Woodward allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation using an estimate of the standalone selling price for each product or service, which is generally based on incurred costs plus a reasonable margin, for each distinct product or service in the contract.

When determining the transaction price of each contract, Woodward considers contractual consideration payable by the customer and variable consideration that may affect the total transaction price. Variable consideration, consisting of early payment discounts, rebates and other sources of price variability, are included in the estimated transaction price based on both customer-specific information as well as historical experience. Woodward’s contracts with customers generally do not include a financing component. Woodward regularly reviews its estimates of variable consideration on the transaction price and recognizes changes in estimates on a cumulative catch-up basis as if the most current estimate of the transaction price adjusted for variable consideration had been known as of the inception of the contract. In the three and nine-months ended

11


June 30, 2019, Woodward did not recognize a significant amount of revenue due to changes in transaction price from performance obligations that were satisfied, or partially satisfied, in prior periods.

Customers sometimes trade in used products in exchange for new or refurbished products. In addition, Woodward’s customers sometimes provide inventory to Woodward which will be integrated into final products sold to those customers. Woodward obtains control of these exchanged products and customer provided inventory, and therefore, both are forms of noncash consideration. Noncash consideration paid by customers on overall sales transactions is additive to the transaction price. Woodward’s net sales and cost of goods sold include the value of such noncash consideration for the same amount, with no resulting impact to earnings before income taxes. Upon receipt of such inventory, Woodward recognizes an inventory asset and a contract liability. Woodward recognized revenue of $ i 23,176 for the three-months and $ i 67,938 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019, related to noncash consideration received from customers. The Aerospace segment recognized $ i 22,947 for the three-months and $ i 66,961 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019, while the Industrial segment recognized $ i 229 for the three-months and $ i 977 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019.

Sales of Products

Woodward primarily generates revenue through the manufacture and sale of engineered aerospace and industrial products, including revenue derived from maintenance, repair and overhaul (“MRO”) performance obligations performed on products originally manufactured by Woodward and subsequently returned by original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) or other end-user customers. The majority of Woodward’s costs incurred to satisfy MRO performance obligations are related to replacing and/or refurbishing component parts of the returned products to restore the units back to a condition generally comparable to that of the unit upon its initial sale to an OEM customer. Therefore, Woodward considers almost all of its revenue to be derived from product sales, including those related to MRO.

Revenue from manufactured and MRO products represented  i 84% and  i 13%, respectively, of Woodward’s net sales for the three-months ended June 30, 2019 and  i 86% and  i 12%, respectively, for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019.

Many Woodward products include embedded software or firmware that is critical to the performance of the product as designed. As the embedded software or firmware is essential to the functioning of the products sold it does not represent a distinct performance obligation separate from the related tangible product in which the software or firmware is embedded. Woodward does not generally sell or license software or firmware on a standalone basis. Software or firmware upgrades, if any, are generally paid for by the customer and treated as separate performance obligations.

The products Woodward sells generally are not subject to risk of return, refund or other similar obligations. Woodward’s sales include product warranty arrangements with customers which are generally assurance-type warranties, rather than service-type warranties. Accordingly, Woodward accounts for warranty related promises to its customers as a guarantee for which a warranty liability is recorded when the related product or service is sold, rather than as a distinct performance obligation accounted for separately from the sale of the underlying product or service. Warranty liabilities are accrued for based on specifically identified warranty issues that are probable to result in future costs, or on a non-specific basis whenever past experience indicates that a normal and predictable pattern exists.

Revenue from shipping and handling activities charged to customers are included in net sales when invoiced to the customer and the related costs are included in cost of goods sold. As a practical expedient under ASC 606, Woodward has elected to account for the costs of shipping and handling activities as a cost to fulfill a contract and not a promised product or service. Shipping and handling costs relating to the sale of products recognized at a point in time are recognized as incurred. Shipping and handling costs relating to the sale of products or services recognized over time are accrued and recognized during the earnings process.

Material Rights and Costs to Fulfill a Contract

Customers sometimes pay consideration to Woodward for product engineering and development activities that do not result in the immediate transfer of distinct products or services to the customer. There is an implicit assumption that without the customer making such advance payments to Woodward, Woodward’s future sales of products or services to the customer would be at a higher selling price; therefore, such payments create a “material right” to the customer that effectively gives the customer an option to acquire future products or services, at a discount, that are dependent upon the product engineering and development. Material rights are recorded as contract liabilities and will be recognized when control of the related products or services are transferred to the customer.

Woodward capitalizes costs of product engineering and development identified as material rights up to the amount of customer funding as costs to fulfill a contract because the costs incurred up to the amount of the customer funding commitment are recoverable. Due to the uncertainty of the product success and/or demand, fulfillment costs in excess of the

12


customer funding are expensed as incurred. As of June 30, 2019, other assets included $ i 97,789 of capitalized costs to fulfill contracts with customers.

Woodward recognizes the deferred material rights as revenue based on a percentage of actual sales to total estimated lifetime sales of the related developed products as the customers exercise their option to acquire additional products or services at a discount. Woodward amortizes the capitalized costs to fulfill a contract as cost of goods sold proportionally to the recognition of the associated deferred material rights. Estimated total lifetime sales are reviewed at least annually and more frequently when circumstances warrant a modification to the previous estimate. For the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019, Woodward recognized an increase in revenue of $ i 4,482 and $ i 6,017, respectively, and cost of goods sold of $ i 9,255 and $ i 9,578, respectively, related to changes in estimated total lifetime sales. Other than amounts related to changes in estimate, for both the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019, Woodward amortized $ i  i 207 /  of costs to fulfill contracts with customers to cost of goods sold and amortized $ i  i 278 /  of contract liabilities to revenue.

In 2016, Woodward contributed certain contractual rights and intellectual property to a joint venture with the General Electric Company (“GE”). In exchange for a  i 50% ownership interest in the joint venture and future rights to purchase products from the joint venture at favorable pricing, GE agreed to pay total consideration of $ i 323,410 to Woodward. Under previous accounting guidance, Woodward concluded that the formation of the joint venture was not the culmination of an earnings event and deferred recognition of the consideration paid until earned in the future. Under ASC 606, Woodward also concluded that the formation of the joint venture was not a culmination of an earnings event and has further concluded that the consideration paid or receivable from GE represents a material right. Accordingly, under both ASC 606 and the previous standard, Woodward concluded it was appropriate to defer the consideration received as a liability and recognized it as an increase to net sales in proportion to revenue realized on sales of applicable fuel systems within the scope of the joint venture. Recognition to net sales in a particular period is determined as a percentage of total revenue expected to be realized by Woodward over the estimated remaining lives of the underlying commercial aircraft engine programs assigned to the joint venture. As of the adoption of ASC 606, Woodward has classified this as a contract liability with both a current and noncurrent portion. For further discussion of Woodward’s joint venture, see Note 6, Joint venture.

Woodward does not record incremental costs of obtaining a contract, as Woodward does not pay sales commissions or incur other incremental costs related to contracts with Woodward’s customers for arrangements in which quantities and pricing are fixed and/or determinable.

Point in time and over time revenue recognition

Approximately one-half of Woodward’s customer contracts are recognized at the point in time when control of the products transfers to the customer, generally upon shipment of products, consistent with Woodward’s historical revenue recognition model. The remaining portion of Woodward’s revenues from sales of products and services to customers is recognized over time, rather than at a point in time, due primarily to the terms of certain customer contracts and/or the type of performance obligation being satisfied, as described below.

The following table reflects the amount of revenue recognized as point in time or over time for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019:

Point in time

Control of the products generally transfers to the customer at a point in time, as the customer does not control the products as they are produced. Woodward exercises judgment and considers the timing of right of payment, transfer of the risk and rewards, transfers of title, transfer of physical possession, and customer acceptance when determining when control of the product transfers to the customer, generally upon shipment of products, consistent with Woodward’s historical revenue recognition model.

13


Over time

Performance obligations are satisfied and revenue is recognized over time if: (i) the customer receives the benefits as Woodward performs work, if the customer controls the asset as it is being enhanced, or if the product being produced for the customer has no alternative use to Woodward; and (ii) Woodward has an enforceable right to payment with a profit. For products being produced for the customer that have no alternative use to Woodward and Woodward has an enforceable right to payment with a profit, and where the products are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer, revenue is recognized as a series of distinct products. As Woodward satisfies MRO performance obligations, revenue is recognized over time, as the customer, rather than Woodward, controls the asset being enhanced. When services are provided, revenue from those services is recognized over time because control is transferred continuously to customers as Woodward performs the work. As a practical expedient, revenue for services that are short-term in nature are recognized using an output method as the customer is invoiced, as the invoiced amount corresponds directly to Woodward’s performance to date on the arrangement.

For services that are not short-term in nature, MRO, and sales of products that have no alternative use to Woodward and an enforceable right to payment with a profit, Woodward uses an actual cost input measure to determine the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation. For these revenue streams, revenue is recognized over time as work is performed based on the relationship between actual costs incurred to-date for each contract and the total estimated costs for such contract at completion of the performance obligation (the cost-to-cost method). Woodward has concluded that this measure of progress best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer, because incurred costs are integral to Woodward’s completion of the performance obligation under the specific customer contract and correlate directly to the transfer of control to the customer. Contract costs include labor, material and overhead. Contract cost estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events. These assumptions include labor productivity and availability; the complexity of the work to be performed; the cost and availability of materials; the performance of subcontractors; and the availability and timing of funding from the customer. Revenues, including estimated fees or profits, are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred.

As a significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of its contracts, Woodward reviews and updates its estimates regularly upon receipt of new contracts with customers. Due to uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, it is reasonably possible that completion costs will be revised. Such revisions to costs and revenue are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined as a cumulative catch-up adjustment. The impact of the adjustment on profit recorded to date on a contract is recognized in the period the adjustment is identified. Revenue and profit in future periods of contract performance are recognized using the adjusted estimate. If at any time the estimate of contract profitability indicates an anticipated loss on the contract, Woodward recognizes provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts in the period in which such losses are determined. For the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019, adjustments to revenue related to changes in estimates were immaterial.

Occasionally Woodward sells maintenance or service arrangements, extended warranties, or other stand ready services. Woodward recognizes revenue from such arrangements as a series of performance obligations over the time period in which the services are available to the customer.

Contract assets

Customer receivables include amounts billed and currently due from customers as well as unbilled amounts (contract assets) and are included in “Accounts receivable” in Woodward’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts are billed in accordance with contractual terms, which are generally tied to shipment of the products to the customer, or as work progresses in accordance with contractual terms. Billed accounts receivable are typically due within 60 days.

Consistent with common business practice in China, Woodward’s Chinese subsidiaries accept bankers’ acceptance notes from Chinese customers in settlement of certain customer billed accounts receivable. Bankers’ acceptance notes are financial instruments issued by Chinese financial institutions as part of financing arrangements between the financial institution and a customer of the financial institution. Bankers’ acceptance notes represent a commitment by the issuing financial institution to pay a certain amount of money at a specified future maturity date to the legal owner of the bankers’ acceptance note as of the maturity date. The maturity date of bankers’ acceptance notes varies, but it is Woodward’s policy to only accept bankers’ acceptance notes with maturity dates no more than 180 days from the date of Woodward’s receipt of such draft. Woodward has elected to adopt the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amounts of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component at contract inception as the financing component associated with accepting bankers’ acceptance notes has a duration of less than one year. Woodward’s contracts with customers generally have no other financing components.

14


Unbilled amounts arise when the timing of billing differs from the timing of revenue recognized, such as when contract provisions require revenue to be recognized over time rather than at a point in time. Unbilled amounts primarily relate to performance obligations satisfied over time when the cost-to-cost method is utilized and the revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer as there is not yet a right to payment in accordance with contractual terms. Unbilled amounts are recorded as a contract asset when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized prior to billing and derecognized when billed in accordance with the terms of the contract.

As of the October 1, 2018 adoption of ASC 606, Woodward recognized unbilled receivables of $ i 135,668, as adjusted. The remaining change in unbilled receivables was driven by the timing of revenue recognized in excess of billings, primarily in Woodward’s Aerospace segment.

In addition, as of June 30, 2019 “Other assets” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets includes $ i 894 of unbilled receivables not expected to be invoiced and collected within a period of twelve months. As of September 30, 2018, there were  i no unbilled receivables not expected to be invoiced and collected within a period of twelve months.

Customer billed receivables are recorded at face amounts, less an allowance for doubtful accounts. In establishing the amount of the allowance related to the credit risk of accounts receivable, customer-specific information is considered related to delinquent accounts, past loss experience, bankruptcy filings, deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position, and current economic conditions. Bad debt losses are deducted from the allowance, and the related accounts receivable balances are written off when the receivables are deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written off are recognized when received. In the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019, receivables written off were immaterial. An allowance associated with anticipated other adjustments to the selling price or cash discounts is also established and is included in the allowance for uncollectible amounts. Changes to this allowance are recorded as increases or decreases to net sales as adjustments to the transaction price related to variable consideration. In establishing this amount, both customer-specific information and historical experience are considered.

Unbilled receivables are stated net of adjustments for credit risk and the anticipated impacts of variable consideration on the transaction price, as applicable.

Billed and unbilled accounts receivable from the U.S. Government were less than  i 10% of total billed and unbilled accounts receivable at June 30, 2019.

Contract liabilities

Advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized represent contract liabilities and are recorded as deferred revenues when customers remit contractual cash payments in advance of Woodward satisfying performance obligations under contractual arrangements, including those with performance obligations satisfied over time. Woodward generally receives advance payments from customers related to maintenance or service arrangements, extended warranties, or other stand ready services, which it recognizes over the performance period. Contract liabilities are derecognized when revenue is recognized and the performance obligation is satisfied. Advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized are included in deferred revenue, which is classified as current or noncurrent based on the timing of when Woodward expects to recognize revenue. The current portion is included in “Accrued liabilities” and the noncurrent portion is included in “Other liabilities” at Woodward’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

All other changes in contract liability balances were due to normal operating activities.

Woodward recognized revenue of $ i 6,147 in the three-months and $ i 26,459 in the nine-months ended June 30, 2019 from contract liabilities balances recorded as of October 1, 2018.

Remaining performance obligations

Remaining performance obligations related to the aggregate amount of the total contract transaction price of firm orders for which the performance obligation has not yet been recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2019 was $ i 1,659,788, the majority of which relate to Woodward’s Aerospace segment. Woodward expects to recognize almost all of these remaining performance obligations within  i two years after June 30, 2019.

Remaining performance obligations related to material rights that have not yet been recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2019 was $ i 436,876, of which $ i 2,253 is expected to be recognized in the remainder of fiscal year  i 2019, $ i 11,573 is expected to be recognized in fiscal year  i 2020, and the balance is expected to be recognized thereafter. Woodward expects to recognize revenue from performance obligations related to material rights over the life of the underlying programs, which may be as long as forty years.

(1)The adoption of ASC 606 changed the revenue recognition practices for a number of revenue generating activities across Woodward’s businesses, although the most significant impacts are concentrated in product being produced for customers that have no alternative use to Woodward and Woodward has an enforceable right to payment with a profit, and MRO. The revenue related to these activities, which previously was accounted for on a point in time basis, is now required to use an over time model because the associated contracts meet one or more of the mandatory criteria established in ASC 606, as described above, and are included as current unbilled receivables in “Accounts receivable” and noncurrent unbilled receivables in “Other assets.” The change in the timing of revenue recognized in connection with over time contracts similarly changed the timing of manufacturing cost recognition and certain engineering and development costs, which are reflected as a reduction to inventory.

(2)

17


The value of noncash consideration in the form of exchanged products and other customer provided inventory is reflected in “Inventories,” and in contract liabilities, which are included in “Accrued liabilities.”

(3)Woodward recorded customer funding of product engineering and development identified as material rights as current and noncurrent deferred revenue contract liabilities included in “Accrued liabilities” and “Other liabilities.” The related customer funded product engineering and development costs were capitalized as costs to fulfill a contract, to the extent of the contractually committed customer funded payments, and are recorded as “Other assets.”

(4)The net book value of the backlog and customer relationships and contracts intangible assets was adjusted concurrent with the change in the timing of the associated revenue, resulting in a reduction in the net book value of these assets as of the date of adoption.

(5)The value of tax assets and tax liabilities was impacted by the change in timing of the recognition of assets and liabilities within tax jurisdictions.

The following schedule quantifies the impact of adopting ASC 606 on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019 and the impact of the out-of-period correction discussed above on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the three-months ended June 30, 2019.

The adoption of ASC 606 resulted in an increase to net sales and cost of goods sold primarily due to the recognition of noncash consideration in the form of customer supplied inventory and the accelerated recognition of revenue and associated cost of goods sold for over time contracts, which would have been recognized at a point in time under the previous standard. The increases were offset by decreases in revenue and cost of goods sold related to the deferral of amounts due from customers recognized as material rights and over time contracts recognized as of the date of adoption, both of which would otherwise have been recognized as revenue during the periods under the previous standard.

Disaggregation of Revenue

Woodward designs, produces and services reliable, efficient, low-emission, and high-performance energy control products for diverse applications in markets throughout the world. Woodward reports financial results for each of its Aerospace and Industrial reportable segments. Woodward further disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by primary market and by geographical area as Woodward believes this best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

 i Note 4. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period.

Diluted earnings per share reflects the weighted-average number of shares outstanding after consideration of the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock.

The following is a reconciliation of net earnings to basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:

 i Note 5. Business acquisition

In fiscal year 2018, the Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Woodward Aken GmbH (collectively, the “Purchasers”), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “L’Orange Agreement”) with MTU Friedrichshafen GmbH (“MTU”) and MTU America Inc. (together with MTU, the “Sellers”), both of which were subsidiaries of Rolls-Royce PLC (“Rolls-Royce”). Pursuant to the L’Orange Agreement, the Purchasers agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of stock of L’Orange GmbH, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries in China and Germany, as well as all of the outstanding equity interests of its affiliate, Fluid Mechanics LLC, and their related operations (collectively, “L’Orange”), for total consideration (including cash consideration and the assumption of certain liabilities) of € i 700,000, or approximately $ i 811,000 based on the foreign currency exchange rate as of the date Woodward executed cross currency swaps in connection with the financing of the transaction as described in Note 8, Derivative instruments and hedging activities. The transactions contemplated by the L’Orange Agreement were completed on  i June 1, 2018 (the “Closing”) and L’Orange became a subsidiary of the Company. Following the Closing, L’Orange was renamed “Woodward L’Orange.”

21


Woodward L’Orange is a supplier of fuel injection systems for industrial diesel, heavy fuel oil and dual-fuel engines. Woodward L’Orange supplies fuel injection technology for engines that power a wide range of industrial applications including marine power and propulsion systems, special-application off road vehicles, locomotives, oil and gas processing, and power generation. Woodward L’Orange serves many large specialist diesel engine manufacturers, including Rolls-Royce Power Systems’ subsidiaries, MTU and Bergen Engines, and other low to high speed engine builders. Woodward L’Orange has been integrated into the Company’s Industrial segment.

In connection with the Closing, MTU and Woodward L’Orange entered into a long-term supply agreement, dated June 1, 2018 (the “LTSA”). Pursuant to the terms of the LTSA, Woodward L’Orange will continue to supply to MTU and its affiliates within Rolls-Royce certain liquid fuel injection systems, injectors, pumps and other associated parts and components for industrial diesel, heavy fuel oil and dual-fuel engines in a manner consistent with the supply of such products prior to the transaction. The LTSA has an initial term that extends through December 31, 2032. During the term of the LTSA, MTU will continue to purchase certain of these products exclusively from Woodward L’Orange, subject to certain limitations specified therein, at pricing negotiated at arms-length.

ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”), provides a framework to account for acquisition transactions under U.S. GAAP. The purchase price of L’Orange, prepared consistent with the required ASC 805 framework, is allocated as follows:

 i 

Cash paid to Sellers

$

 i 780,401 

Less acquired cash and restricted cash

( i 9,286)

Total purchase price

$

 i 771,115 

 / 

The cash consideration was financed through the use of cash on hand, the issuance of an aggregate principal amount of $ i 400,000 of senior unsecured notes in a series of private placement transactions and $ i 167,420 borrowed under Woodward’s revolving credit agreement (see Note 14, Credit facilities, short-term borrowings and long-term debt). In connection with these borrowings, the Company entered into cross currency swap transactions, which effectively lowered the interest rate on each tranche of the senior unsecured notes and the borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit agreement (see Note 8, Derivative instruments and hedging activities).

The allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was finalized as of June 30, 2019 using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805.  Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction were recorded at their acquisition date fair values, while transaction costs associated with the acquisition were expensed as incurred.  Woodward’s allocation was based on an evaluation of the appropriate fair values and represents management’s best estimate based on available data.

The following table, which is final as of June 30, 2019, summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Closing.

The entire inventory fair value adjustment was recognized as a noncash increase to cost of goods sold ratably over the estimated inventory turnover period during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018.

 / 

In connection with the acquisition of L’Orange, Woodward assumed the defined benefit pension obligations of the L’Orange defined benefit pension plans (the “Woodward L’Orange Pension Plans”). Woodward’s assumption of the liability associated with the Woodward L’Orange Pension Plans was part of the total consideration paid by Woodward to acquire L’Orange and thus reduced Woodward’s cash payment for the transaction. As of the Closing, the total liability recognized by the Company associated with the Woodward L’Orange Pension Plans was $ i 39,257, of which $ i 1,143 was considered current.

The final purchase price allocation resulted in the recognition of $ i 257,447 of goodwill. Only the portion of goodwill which relates to the U.S. operations of Woodward L’Orange is deductible for tax purposes. The Company has included all of the goodwill in its Industrial segment. The goodwill represents the estimated value of potential expansion with new customers, the opportunity to further develop sales opportunities with new customers, other synergies including supply chain savings expected to be achieved through the integration of Woodward L’Orange with Woodward’s Industrial segment, and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as the value of the assembled Woodward L’Orange workforce that is not included within the estimated value of the acquired backlog and customer relationship intangible assets.

Pro forma results for Woodward giving effect to the L’Orange acquisition

The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations of Woodward and Woodward L’Orange as if the acquisition had been completed as of the beginning of the prior fiscal year, or October 1, 2016. The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes and is not indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisition and related borrowings had taken place on October 1, 2016, nor are they indicative of future results.

The unaudited pro forma financial information for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019 includes Woodward’s results, including the post-acquisition results of Woodward L’Orange, since June 1, 2018. The unaudited pro forma financial information for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2018 combines Woodward’s results with the pre-acquisition results of L’Orange for the period prior to June 1, 2018, and the post-acquisition results of Woodward L’Orange since June 1, 2018.

Prior to the L’Orange acquisition by Woodward, L’Orange was a wholly owned subsidiary of Rolls-Royce, and as such was not a standalone entity for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the historical operating results of L’Orange may not be indicative of the results that might have been achieved, historically or in the future, if L’Orange had been a standalone entity.

The unaudited pro forma results for all periods presented include adjustments made to account for certain costs and transactions that would have been incurred had the acquisition been completed as of October 1, 2016, including amortization charges for acquired intangible assets, eliminations of intercompany transactions, adjustments for acquisition transaction costs, adjustments for depreciation expense for property, plant, and equipment, and adjustments to interest expense. These adjustments are net of any applicable tax impact and were included to arrive at the pro forma results above.

The operating results of Woodward L’Orange have been included in Woodward’s operating results for the periods subsequent to the completion of the acquisition on June 1, 2018. Woodward L’Orange contributed net sales of $ i 78,517 for the three-months and $ i 254,183 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019, and net sales of $ i  i 24,878 /  for both the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2018. Woodward L’Orange contributed net income before income taxes of $ i 11,495 for the three-months and $ i 33,995 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019, and a net loss before income taxes of $ i  i 1,215 /  for both the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2018.

Woodward incurred acquisition financing related costs of $ i 3,655 for the three-months and $ i 11,152 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019, and $ i  i 1,154 /  for both the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2018. The acquisition financing related costs are included in “Interest expense” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

 i Note 6. Joint venture

On  i January 4, 2016, Woodward and General Electric Company (“GE”), acting through its GE Aviation business unit, consummated the formation of a strategic joint venture between Woodward and GE (the “JV”) to develop, manufacture and support fuel systems for specified existing and all future GE commercial aircraft engines that produce thrust in excess of fifty thousand pounds.

As part of the JV formation, Woodward contributed to the JV certain contractual rights and intellectual property applicable to the existing GE commercial aircraft engine programs within the scope of the JV. Woodward had no initial cost basis in the JV because Woodward had no cost basis in the contractual rights and intellectual property contributed to the JV. GE purchased from Woodward a  i 50% ownership interest in the JV for a $ i 250,000 cash payment to Woodward. In addition, GE will pay contingent consideration to Woodward consisting of fifteen annual payments of $ i 4,894 per year, which began on January 4, 2017, subject to certain claw-back conditions. During the three-months ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019, Woodward received its second and third annual payments of $ i  i 4,894 / , respectively, which were recorded as deferred income and included in Net cash provided by operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Neither Woodward nor GE contributed any tangible assets to the JV.

Under previous accounting guidance, Woodward concluded that the formation of the JV was not the culmination of an earnings event and deferred recognition of the consideration paid until earned in the future. Under ASC 606, Woodward also concluded the formation of the JV was not a culmination of an earnings event and has further concluded that the consideration paid or receivable from GE represents a material right. Accordingly, under both ASC 606 and the previous standard, Woodward concluded it was appropriate to defer the consideration received as a liability and recognize it as an

24


increase to net sales in proportion to revenue realized on sales of applicable fuel systems within the scope of the JV. Recognition to net sales in a particular period is determined as a percentage of total revenue expected to be realized by Woodward over the estimated remaining lives of the underlying commercial aircraft engine programs assigned to the JV. Unamortized deferred revenue from material rights in connection with the JV formation included accrued liabilities of $ i 6,806 as of June 30, 2019 and $ i 7,087 as of September 30, 2018, and other liabilities of $ i 234,038 as of June 30, 2019 and $ i 235,300 as of September 30, 2018. Amortization of the deferred income (material right) recognized as an increase to sales was $ i 2,013 for the three-months and $ i 5,712 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019, and $ i 1,564 for the three-months and $ i 4,103 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2018.

Woodward and GE jointly manage the JV and any significant decisions and/or actions of the JV require the mutual consent of both parties. Neither Woodward nor GE has a controlling financial interest in the JV, but both Woodward and GE do have the ability to significantly influence the operating and financial decisions of the JV. Therefore, Woodward is accounting for its 50% ownership interest in the JV using the equity method of accounting. The JV is a related party to Woodward. Other income includes income of $ i 3,290 for the three-months and $ i 7,761 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019, and income of $ i 738 for the three-months and $ i 2,340 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2018 related to Woodward’s equity interest in the earnings of the JV. During the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019, Woodward received cash distributions from the JV of $ i 4,500 and $ i 12,000 respectively, which is included in Net cash provided by operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Woodward received  i  i no /  cash distributions from the JV during the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2018. Woodward’s net investment in the JV, which is included in other assets, was $ i 5,373 as of June 30, 2019 and $ i 9,611 as of September 30, 2018.

Woodward’s net sales include $ i 18,049 for the three-months and $ i 45,176 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019 of sales to the JV, compared to $ i 20,085 for the three-months and $ i 50,137 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2018. Woodward recorded a reduction to sales of $ i 6,897 for the three-months and $ i 25,148 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019 related to royalties paid to the JV by Woodward on sales by Woodward directly to third party aftermarket customers, compared to $ i 7,340 for the three-months and $ i 19,670 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2018. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include “Accounts receivable” of $ i 5,441 at June 30, 2019, and $ i 10,499 at September 30, 2018, related to amounts the JV owed Woodward, and include “Accounts payable” of $ i 2,365 at June 30, 2019, and $ i 2,944 at September 30, 2018, related to amounts Woodward owed the JV.

Upon the October 1, 2018 adoption of ASC 606, Woodward recorded $ i 57,529 of revenue recognized in prior periods for the JV’s engineering and development projects as an increase to contract liabilities in “Other liabilities” and $ i 57,529 of costs recognized in prior periods as costs to fulfill a contract in “Other assets.” Woodward recognized an additional $ i 3,042 during the three-months and $ i 11,640 during the nine-months ended June 30, 2019 of contract liabilities in “Other liabilities,” and $ i 3,042 during the three-months and $ i 11,640 during the nine-months ended June 30, 2019 of additional costs to fulfill a contract in “Other assets.” In the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019, Woodward recognized a $ i  i 2,774 /  reduction in both the contract liability in “Other liabilities” and costs to fulfill a contract in “Other assets” related to the termination of a JV engineering and development project previously recognized as a material right.

 i Note 7. Financial instruments and fair value measurements

Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy established by U.S. GAAP, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into the following levels:

Level 1: Inputs based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level 2: Quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable and can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Inputs that reflect management’s best estimates and assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and are significant to the valuation of the instruments.

Investments in reverse repurchase agreements: Woodward sometimes invests excess cash in reverse repurchase agreements. Under the terms of Woodward’s reverse repurchase agreements, Woodward purchases an interest in a pool of securities and is granted a security interest in those securities by the counterparty to the reverse repurchase agreement. At an agreed upon date, generally the next business day, the counterparty repurchases Woodward’s interest in the pool of securities at a price equal to what Woodward paid to the counterparty plus a rate of return determined daily per the terms of the reverse repurchase agreement. Woodward believes that the investments in these reverse repurchase agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions and that the funds invested are highly liquid. The investments in reverse repurchase agreements are reported at fair value, with realized gains from interest income recognized in earnings, and are included in “Cash and cash equivalents” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Since the investments are generally overnight, the carrying value is considered to be equal to the fair value as the amount is deemed to be a cash deposit with no risk of change in value as of the end of each fiscal quarter.

Investments in term deposits with foreign banks: Woodward’s foreign subsidiaries sometimes invest excess cash in various highly liquid financial instruments that Woodward believes are with creditworthy financial institutions. Such investments are reported in “Cash and cash equivalents” at fair value, with realized gains from interest income recognized in earnings. The carrying value of Woodward’s investments in term deposits with foreign banks are considered equal to the fair value given the highly liquid nature of the investments. As of September 30, 2018, $ i 3,635 of the term deposits with foreign banks were restricted in use as they were pledged collateral for short-term borrowings. The restriction lapsed during the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 when the related short-term borrowings were paid.

Equity securities: Woodward holds marketable equity securities, through investments in various mutual funds, related to its deferred compensation program. Based on Woodward’s intentions regarding these instruments, marketable equity securities are classified as trading securities. The trading securities are reported at fair value, with realized gains and losses recognized in “Other (income) expense, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The trading securities are included in “Other assets” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair values of Woodward’s trading securities are based on the quoted market prices for the net asset value of the various mutual funds.

Cross currency interest rate swaps: Woodward holds cross currency interest rate swaps, which are accounted for at fair value. The swaps in an asset position are included in “Other assets,” and swaps in a liability position are included in “Other liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair values of Woodward’s cross currency interest rate swaps are determined using a market approach that is based on observable inputs other than quoted market prices, including contract terms, interest rates, currency rates, and other market factors.

Trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, and short-term borrowings are not remeasured to fair value, as the carrying cost of each approximates its respective fair value.

In connection with certain economic incentives related to Woodward’s development of a second campus in the greater-Rockford, Illinois area for its Aerospace segment and Woodward’s development of a new campus at its corporate headquarters in Fort Collins, Colorado, Woodward received long-term notes from municipalities within the states of Illinois and Colorado. The fair value of the long-term notes was estimated based on a model that discounted future principal and interest payments received at an interest rate available to the Company at the end of the period for similarly rated municipal notes of similar maturity, which is a level 2 input as defined by the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy. The interest rates used to estimate the fair value of the long-term notes were  i 2.0% at June 30, 2019 and  i 3.1% at September 30, 2018.

From time to time, certain of Woodward’s foreign subsidiaries will invest excess cash in short-term time deposits with a fixed maturity date of longer than three months but less than one year from the date of the deposit. Woodward believes that the investments are with creditworthy financial institutions. The fair value of the investments in short-term time deposits was estimated based on a model that discounted future principal and interest payments to be received at an interest rate available to the foreign subsidiary entering into the investment for similar short-term time deposits of similar maturity. This was determined to be a level 2 input as defined by the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy. The interest rates used to estimate the fair value of the short-term time deposits was  i  i 6.3 / % at both June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018.

The fair value of long-term debt was estimated based on a model that discounted future principal and interest payments at interest rates available to the Company at the end of the period for similar debt of the same maturity, which is a level 2 input as defined by the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy. The weighted-average interest rates used to estimate the fair value of long-term debt were  i 2.8% at June 30, 2019 and  i 3.5% at September 30, 2018.

 i Note 8. Derivative instruments and hedging activities

Woodward has exposures related to global market risks, including the effect of changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, changes in certain commodity prices and fluctuations in various producer indices. From time to time, Woodward enters into derivative instruments for risk management purposes only, including derivatives designated as accounting hedges and/or those utilized as economic hedges. Woodward uses interest rate related derivative instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations of interest rates. Woodward does not enter into or issue derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

By using derivative and/or hedging instruments to manage its risk exposure, Woodward is subject, from time to time, to credit risk and market risk on those derivative instruments. Credit risk arises from the potential failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative and/or hedging instrument. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes Woodward, which creates credit risk for Woodward. Woodward mitigates this credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that are believed to be creditworthy. Market risk arises from the potential adverse effects on the value of derivative and/or hedging instruments that result from a change in interest rates, commodity prices, or foreign currency exchange rates. Woodward minimizes this market risk by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.

Derivative instruments not designated or qualifying as hedging instruments

On April 18, 2018, Woodward entered into an at-the-money forward option at a cost of $ i 5,543 (the “Forward Option”) whereby, on May 30, 2018, Woodward had the ability to exercise its option to purchase € i 490,000 on June 1, 2018 using U.S. dollars at a fixed exchange rate of  i 1.2432. The Forward Option was entered into to manage Woodward’s exposure to fluctuations in the  i Euro prior to the anticipated close of the L’Orange Agreement, which provided for payment in Euros. Woodward did not enter into the Forward Option for trading or speculative purposes. As the spot rate was below  i 1.2432 on

27


May 30, 2018, Woodward elected not to exercise the option and a loss of $ i 5,543 was recognized on the Forward Option in “Other (income) expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings in the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2018.  The Forward Option expired on June 1, 2018.

In May 2018, Woodward entered into cross currency interest rate swap agreements that synthetically convert $ i 167,420 of floating-rate debt under Woodward’s then existing revolving credit agreement to Euro denominated floating-rate debt in conjunction with the L’Orange acquisition (the “Floating-Rate Cross Currency Swap”). Also in May 2018, Woodward entered into cross currency interest rate swap agreements that synthetically convert an aggregate principal amount of $ i 400,000 of fixed-rate debt associated with the 2018 Note Purchase Agreement (as defined in Note 14, Credit facilities short-term borrowings and long-term debt) to Euro denominated fixed-rate debt (the “Fixed-Rate Cross Currency Swaps”). The cross currency interest rate swaps, which effectively reduce the interest rate on the underlying fixed and floating-rate debt under the 2018 Notes (as defined in Note 14, Credit facilities short-term borrowings and long-term debt) and Woodward’s then existing revolving credit agreement, respectively, is recorded as a reduction to “Interest expense” in Woodward’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

Derivatives instruments in fair value hedging relationships

Concurrent with the entry into the Floating-Rate Cross Currency Swap, a corresponding Euro denominated intercompany loan receivable with identical terms and notional amount as the underlying Euro denominated floating-rate debt, with a reciprocal cross currency interest rate swap, was entered into by Woodward Barbados Financing SRL (“Barbados”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Woodward, and is designated as a fair value hedge under the criteria prescribed in ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The objective of the derivative instrument is to hedge against the foreign currency exchange risk attributable to the spot remeasurement of the Euro denominated intercompany loan.

Only the change in the fair value related to the cross currency basis spread, or excluded component, of the derivative instrument is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive (losses) earnings (“accumulated OCI”). The remaining change in the fair value of the derivative instrument is recognized in foreign currency transaction gain or loss included in “Selling, general and administrative costs” in Woodward’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The change in the fair value of the derivative instrument in foreign currency transaction gain or loss offsets the change in the spot remeasurement of the intercompany Euro denominated loan. Hedge effectiveness is assessed based on the fair value changes of the derivative instrument, after excluding any fair value changes related to the cross currency basis spread. The initial cost of the cross currency basis spread is recorded in earnings each period through the swap accrual process. There is no credit-risk-related contingent features associated with the floating-rate cross currency interest rate swap.

Derivative instruments in cash flow hedging relationships

In conjunction with the entry into the Fixed-Rate Cross Currency Swaps,  i five corresponding intercompany loans receivable, with identical terms and amounts of each tranche of the underlying aggregate principal amount of $ i 400,000 of fixed-rate debt, and reciprocal cross currency interest rate swaps were entered into by Barbados, which are designated as cash flow hedges under the criteria prescribed in ASC 815. The objective of these derivative instruments is to hedge the risk of variability in cash flows attributable to the foreign currency exchange risk of cash flows for future principal and interest payments associated with the Euro denominated intercompany loans over a fifteen year period.

Changes in the fair values of the derivative instruments are recognized in accumulated OCI and reclassified to foreign currency transaction gain or loss included in “Selling, general and administrative costs” in Woodward’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Reclassifications out of accumulated OCI of the change in fair value occur each reporting period based upon changes in the spot rate remeasurement of the Euro denominated intercompany loans, including associated interest. Hedge effectiveness is assessed based on the fair value changes of the derivative instruments and deemed to be highly effective in offsetting exposure to variability in foreign exchange rates. There are no credit-risk-related contingent features associated with these fixed-rate cross currency interest rate swaps.

In June 2013, in connection with Woodward’s expected refinancing of current maturities on its then existing long-term debt, Woodward entered into a treasury lock agreement with a notional amount of $ i 25,000 that qualified as a cash flow hedge under ASC 815. The objective of this derivative instrument was to hedge the risk of variability in cash flows attributable to changes in the designated benchmark interest rate over a seven year period related to the future principal and interest payments on a portion of anticipated future debt issuances. The treasury lock agreement was terminated in August 2013 and the resulting gain of $ i 507 was recorded as a reduction to accumulated OCI, net of tax, and is being recognized as a decrease to interest expense over a seven year period. Woodward expects to reclassify $ i 72 of net unrecognized gains on terminated derivative instruments from accumulated OCI to earnings during the next  i twelve months.

28


Derivatives instruments in net investment hedging relationships

On  i September 23, 2016, Woodward and Woodward International Holding B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of Woodward organized under the laws of The Netherlands (the “BV Subsidiary”), each entered into a note purchase agreement (the “2016 Note Purchase Agreement”) relating to the sale by Woodward and the BV Subsidiary of an aggregate principal amount of € i 160,000 of senior unsecured notes in a series of private placement transactions. Woodward issued € i 40,000 aggregate principal amount of Woodward’s Series M Senior Notes due September 23, 2026 (the “Series M Notes”). Woodward designated the Series M Notes as a hedge of a foreign currency exposure of Woodward’s net investment in its Euro denominated functional currency subsidiaries. Related to the Series M Notes, included in foreign currency translation adjustments within total comprehensive (losses) earnings are net foreign exchange losses of $ i 598 for the three-months and net foreign exchanges gains of $ i 976 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019, compared to net foreign exchange gains of $ i 2,559 for the three-months and $ i 548 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2018.

In the second quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company announced its decision to relocate its Duarte, California operations to the Company’s newly renovated Drake Campus in Fort Collins, Colorado. The carrying value of the assets at the Duarte facility was $ i 10,738 as of June 30, 2019, of which the Company has identified assets held for sale with a carrying value of $ i 7,848. At September 30, 2018, the Company identified assets held for sale of $ i 8,306. The majority of the assets held for sale are included in “Land and land improvements” and “Buildings and buildings improvements” which relate to the land, building and building improvements, and other assets at the Duarte facility. The assets held for sale are included in the Company’s Aerospace segment. Based on current market conditions, the Company expects to record a gain on the eventual sale of these assets. The Company has identified approximately $ i 377 that is planned to be disposed of as a result of the relocation.

The Company assessed whether the decision to relocate from its Duarte facility could indicate a potential impairment of the assets at the Duarte facility and concluded that the assets were not impaired as of June 30, 2019.

In fiscal year 2015, Woodward completed and placed into service a manufacturing and office building on a second campus in the greater-Rockford, Illinois area and has occupied the new facility for its Aerospace segment. This campus is intended to support Woodward’s expected growth in its Aerospace segment as a result of Woodward being awarded a substantial number of new system platforms, particularly on narrow-body aircraft.

Included in “Construction in progress” are costs of $ i 23,801 at June 30, 2019 and $ i 32,248 at September 30, 2018 associated with new equipment purchases for the greater-Rockford, Illinois campus and costs of $ i 5,624 at June 30, 2019 and $ i 3,967 at September 30, 2018 associated with new equipment purchases and the renovation of the Drake Campus.

Included in “Office furniture and equipment” and “Other” is $ i 1,627 at June 30, 2019 and $ i 1,650 at September 30, 2018, of gross assets acquired on capital leases, and accumulated depreciation included $ i 1,441 at June 30, 2019 and $ i 1,158 at September 30, 2018 of amortization associated with the capital lease assets.

On June 1, 2018, Woodward completed the acquisition of L’Orange (see Note 5, Business acquisition), which resulted in the recognition of $ i 257,447 in goodwill in the Company’s Industrial segment.

Woodward tests goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or at any time there is an indication goodwill is more-likely-than-not impaired, commonly referred to as triggering events. Woodward’s fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 impairment test resulted in  i no impairment, and there were no triggering events in the first or second quarters of fiscal year 2019.

As discussed at Note 21, Commitments and contingencies, on April 9, 2019, German wind turbine manufacturer, Senvion GmbH (“Senvion”), a significant customer of Woodward’s renewables business, announced that it filed for self-administration insolvency proceedings. In conjunction with this, during the three-months ended June 30, 2019, Woodward determined that this action by Senvion represented a triggering event requiring an interim goodwill impairment test of its renewable power systems reporting unit. Based on the results of this interim impairment test, Woodward determined the renewable power systems reporting unit’s goodwill was not impaired as of June 30, 2019.

 i Note 14. Credit facilities, short-term borrowings and long-term debt

Revolving credit facility

Woodward maintains a $ i 1,000,000 revolving credit facility established under a revolving credit agreement among Woodward, a syndicate of lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”). The Revolving Credit Agreement provided for the option to increase available borrowings up to $ i 1,200,000, subject to lenders’ participation. On June 19, 2019, Woodward amended the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement”) to, among other things, (i) increase the option to increase available borrowings from $ i 1,200,000 to $ i 1,500,000, (ii) continue the commitments of the lenders thereunder to make revolving loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $ i 1,000,000, or $ i 1,500,000 subject to lenders’ participation, (iii) extend the termination date of the revolving loan commitments of all the lenders from  i April 28, 2020 to  i June 19, 2024, and (iv) subject to conforming changes to the Company’s existing note purchase agreements, modify the definition of “EBITDA” to add-back acquisition related transaction costs associated with permitted acquisitions and increase the minimum consolidated net worth covenant from $ i 800,000 to $ i 1,156,000 plus (a)  i 50% of Woodward’s positive net income for the prior fiscal year and (b)  i 50% of Woodward’s net cash proceeds resulting from certain issuances of stock, subject to certain adjustments. Borrowings under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement can be made by Woodward and certain of its foreign subsidiaries in U.S. dollars or in foreign currencies other than the U.S. dollar and generally bear interest at  i LIBOR plus  i 0.875% to  i 1.75%. Under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement, there were $ i 361,852 in principal amount of borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2019, at an effective interest rate of  i 3.54%. Under the prior Revolving Credit Agreement, there were $ i 266,541 in principal amount of borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2018, at an effective interest rate of  i 3.48%.

As of June 30, 2019, $ i 180,000 of the borrowings under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement were classified as short-term borrowings, and as of September 30, 2018, $ i 150,000 of the borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement were classified as short-term borrowings based on Woodward’s intent and ability to pay this amount in the next twelve months.

Short-term borrowings

Woodward has other foreign lines of credit and foreign overdraft facilities at various financial institutions, which are generally reviewed annually for renewal and are subject to the usual terms and conditions applied by the financial institutions. Pursuant to the terms of the related facility agreements, Woodward’s foreign performance guarantee facilities are limited in use to providing performance guarantees to third parties. There were  i  i no /  borrowings outstanding on Woodward’s foreign lines of credit and foreign overdraft facilities as of both June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018. Woodward had other short-term borrowings of $ i 3,635 as of September 30, 2018, which were repaid during the first quarter of fiscal year 2019.

Restructuring charges

In the second quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company recorded restructuring charges totaling $ i 17,013, the majority of which relate to the Company’s decision to relocate its Duarte, California operations to the Company’s newly renovated Drake Campus in Fort Collins, Colorado. The Duarte facility, which manufactures thrust reverser actuation systems, is part of the Company’s Aerospace segment. The remaining restructuring charges recognized during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 consist of workforce management costs related to aligning the Company’s industrial turbomachinery business, which is part of the Company’s Industrial segment, with the then current market conditions. All of the restructuring charges recorded during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 were recorded as nonsegment expenses and are expected to be paid within one year of the balance sheet date, of which $ i 491 was paid during fiscal year 2018 related to the Company’s industrial turbomachinery business realignment.

Woodward receives certain economic incentives from various state and local authorities related to capital expansion projects. Such amounts are initially recorded as deferred credits and are being recognized as a reduction to pre-tax expense over the economic lives of the related capital expansion projects.

 i Note 18. Income taxes

U.S. GAAP requires the interim tax provision be determined as follows:

·At the end of each quarter, Woodward estimates the tax that will be provided for the current fiscal year stated as a percentage of estimated “ordinary income.” The term ordinary income refers to earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, excluding significant unusual or infrequently occurring items.

The estimated annual effective rate is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income at the end of each quarter to compute the estimated year-to-date tax applicable to ordinary income. The tax expense or benefit related to ordinary income in each quarter is equal to the difference between the most recent year-to-date and the prior quarter year-to-date computations.

·The tax effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring items are recognized as discrete items in the interim period in which the events occur. The impact of changes in tax laws or rates on deferred tax amounts, the effects of changes in judgment about beginning of the year valuation allowances, and changes in tax reserves resulting from the finalization of tax audits or reviews are examples of significant unusual or infrequently occurring items that are recognized as discrete items in the interim period in which the events occur.

The determination of the annual effective tax rate is based upon a number of significant estimates and judgments. In addition, as a global commercial enterprise, Woodward’s tax expense can be impacted by changes in tax rates or laws, the finalization of tax audits and reviews, changes in the estimate of the amount of undistributed foreign earnings that Woodward considers indefinitely reinvested, and other factors that cannot be predicted with certainty. As such, there can be significant volatility in interim tax provisions.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted significant changes to the U.S. tax law following the passage and signing of the Tax Act. The Tax Act included significant changes to existing tax law, including a permanent reduction to the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from  i 35% to  i 21%, a one-time repatriation tax on deferred foreign income (“Transition Tax”), deductions, credits and business-related exclusions.

Enactment of the Tax Act during December 2017 resulted in a discrete net charge to Woodward’s income tax expense in the amount of $ i 14,778, which was recorded in the three-months ended December 31, 2018. After adjustments to amounts made throughout fiscal year 2018, the net impact of the enactment of the Tax Act was $ i 10,860. Woodward finalized its assessment of the income tax effects of the Tax Act in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019.

38


On June 14, 2019, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) issued final regulations that modified the Transition Tax computation required by the Tax Act. As a result, in the three-months ended June 30, 2019, Woodward recognized additional income tax expense related to the Transition Tax of $ i 10,588.

Within the calculation of Woodward’s annual effective tax rate, Woodward has used assumptions and estimates that may change as a result of future guidance, interpretation, and rule-making from the IRS, the SEC, and the FASB and/or various other tax jurisdictions. Changes in corporate tax rates, the net deferred tax assets and/or liabilities relating to Woodward’s U.S. operations, the taxation of foreign earnings, and the deductibility of expenses contained in the Tax Act or other future tax reform legislation could have a material impact on Woodward’s future income tax expense. Additionally, Woodward anticipates the IRS will issue additional regulations related to the Tax Act which may have an impact on Woodward’s future income tax expense.

The following table sets forth the tax expense and the effective tax rate for Woodward’s earnings before income taxes:

 / 

The increase in the effective tax rate for the three-months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three-months ended June 30, 2018 is primarily attributable to favorable resolutions of tax matters in the prior fiscal year quarter that did not repeat in the current quarter and the additional income tax expense related to the Transition Tax resulting from final regulations issued by the IRS on June 14, 2019 that modified the Transition Tax computation required by the Tax Act. Also contributing to the increase in the three-months ended June 30, 2019 was the loss of the domestic production activities deduction in the current quarter and the U.S. federal corporate income tax on estimated current year foreign earnings. Partially offsetting these increases were the impacts of the Tax Act on the resolution of the fiscal year 2014, 2015, and 2016 IRS audits recorded in the prior fiscal year quarter that did not repeat in the current quarter and a reduction in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate provided by the Tax Act.

The decrease in the effective tax rate for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the nine-months ended June 30, 2018 is primarily attributable to higher income tax expense related to the Tax Act recognized in the prior fiscal year compared to the amount recognized in the current fiscal year, the reduction in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate provided by the Tax Act in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, and an increase in the net excess income tax benefits from stock-based compensation in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019. Partially offsetting this decrease were favorable resolutions of tax matters in the first nine months of the prior fiscal year that did not repeat in the first nine months of the current fiscal year, an increase in the U.S. federal corporate income tax on estimated current year foreign earnings in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, and the loss of the domestic production activities deduction in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019.

Gross unrecognized tax benefits were $ i 10,143 as of June 30, 2019, and $ i 8,364 as of September 30, 2018. Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits were $ i 4,012 in tax benefits as of June 30, 2019 and $ i 3,288 as of September 30, 2018 that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. At this time, Woodward does not believe it is reasonably possible that the liability for unrecognized tax benefits will decrease in the next twelve months. Woodward accrues for potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits and all other interest and penalties related to tax payments in tax expense. Woodward had accrued gross interest and penalties of $ i 393 as of June 30, 2019 and $ i 279 as of September 30, 2018.

Woodward’s tax returns are subject to audits by U.S. federal, state, and foreign tax authorities, and these audits are at various stages of completion at any given time. Reviews of tax matters by authorities and lapses of the applicable statutes of limitations may result in changes to tax expense. Woodward’s fiscal years remaining open to examination for U.S. Federal income taxes include fiscal years  i 2017 and thereafter. In fiscal year 2018, Woodward concluded its U.S. federal income tax examinations through fiscal year 2016. Woodward’s fiscal years remaining open to examination for significant U.S. state income tax jurisdictions include fiscal years  i 2014 and thereafter. Woodward closed various audits in foreign jurisdictions in the second and third quarters of fiscal year 2019. As a result, fiscal years remaining open to examination in significant foreign jurisdictions include fiscal year  i 2016 and thereafter.

 i Note 19. Retirement benefits

Woodward provides various retirement benefits to eligible members of the Company, including contributions to various defined contribution plans, pension benefits associated with defined benefit plans, postretirement medical benefits and postretirement life insurance benefits. Eligibility requirements and benefit levels vary depending on employee location.

Defined contribution plans

Most of the Company’s U.S. employees are eligible to participate in the U.S. defined contribution plan. The U.S. defined contribution plan allows employees to defer part of their annual income for income tax purposes into their personal 401(k) accounts. The Company makes matching contributions to eligible employee accounts, which are also deferred for employee personal income tax purposes. Certain non-U.S. employees are also eligible to participate in similar non-U.S. plans.

Most of Woodward’s U.S. employees with at least  i two years of service receive an annual contribution of Woodward stock, equal to  i 5% of their eligible prior year wages, to their personal Woodward Retirement Savings Plan accounts. Woodward fulfilled its annual Woodward stock contribution obligation using shares held in treasury stock by issuing a total of  i 158 shares of common stock for a value of $ i 14,846 in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, compared to a total of  i 202 shares of common stock for a value of $ i 14,741 in the second quarter of fiscal year 2018.

The amount of expense associated with defined contribution plans was as follows:

Defined benefit plans

Woodward has defined benefit plans that provide pension benefits for certain retired employees in the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, and Germany. Woodward also provides other postretirement benefits to its employees including postretirement medical benefits and life insurance benefits. Postretirement medical benefits are provided to certain current and retired employees and their covered dependents and beneficiaries in the United States and the United Kingdom. Life insurance benefits are provided to certain retirees in the United States under frozen plans, which are no longer available to current employees. A September 30 measurement date is utilized to value plan assets and obligations for all of Woodward’s defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans.

On October 26, 2018, the High Court of Justice in the United Kingdom (the “High Court”) issued a ruling (the “Court Ruling”) requiring defined benefit plan sponsors in the United Kingdom to equalize benefits payable to men and women under its United Kingdom defined benefit pension plans by amending those plans to increase the pension benefits payable to participants that accrued such benefits during the period from 1990 to 1997. In the Court Ruling, the High Court also provided details on acceptable alternative methods of amending plans to equalize the pension benefits. Woodward has initially concluded that Court Ruling is applicable to its defined benefit pension plan in the United Kingdom and will make the necessary plan amendments. Based on its initial estimates, Woodward does not believe the Court Ruling represents a significant event requiring a remeasurement of its United Kingdom defined benefit pension plan’s obligation and assets as of June 30, 2019.

U.S. GAAP requires that, for obligations outstanding as of September 30, 2018, the funded status reported in interim periods shall be the same asset or liability recognized in the previous year end statement of financial position adjusted for (a) subsequent accruals of net periodic benefit cost that exclude the amortization of amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income (for example, subsequent accruals of service cost, interest cost, and return on plan assets) and (b) contributions to a funded plan or benefit payments.

The amount of cash contributions made to these plans in any year is dependent upon a number of factors, including minimum funding requirements in the jurisdictions in which Woodward operates and arrangements made with trustees of certain foreign plans.

 i Note 20. Stockholders’ equity

Stock repurchase program

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, Woodward’s board of directors terminated the Company’s prior stock repurchase program and replaced it with a new program for the repurchase of up to $ i 500,000 of Woodward’s outstanding shares of common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions over a  i three year period that will end in November 2019 (the “2017 Authorization”). In the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, Woodward purchased  i 1,102 shares of its common stock for $ i 110,311 under the 2017 Authorization pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan. Woodward repurchased  i no common stock under the 2017 Authorization in the first nine months of fiscal year 2018.

Stock-based compensation

Provisions governing outstanding stock option awards are included in the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “2017 Plan”) and the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”), as applicable.

The 2017 Plan was approved by Woodward’s stockholders in January 2017 and is a successor plan to the 2006 Plan. As of September 14, 2016, the effective date of the 2017 Plan, Woodward’s board of directors delegated authority to administer the 2017 Plan to the compensation committee of the board of directors (the “Committee”), including, but not limited to, the power to determine the recipients of awards and the terms of those awards. On January 30, 2019, Woodward’s stockholders approved an additional  i 1,400 shares of Woodward’s common stock to be made available for future grants. Under the 2017 Plan, there were approximately  i 1,813 shares of Woodward’s common stock available for future grants as of June 30, 2019.

Stock options

Woodward believes that stock options align the interests of its employees and directors with the interests of its stockholders. Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of Woodward’s stock at the date the grants are awarded, a  i ten year term, and generally have a  i four year vesting schedule at a rate of  i 25% per year.

The fair value of options granted is estimated as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-valuation model using the assumptions in the following table. Woodward calculates the expected term, which represents the average period of time that stock options granted are expected to be outstanding, based upon historical experience of plan participants. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility using daily stock price observations. The estimated dividend yield is based upon Woodward’s historical dividend practice and the market value of its common stock. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. treasury yield curve, for periods within the contractual life of the stock option, at the time of grant.

Restricted stock units

Restricted stock units have been granted to certain employees of L’Orange (at acquisition) and other current Woodward members in key management positions. Each restricted stock unit entitles the holder to one share of the Company’s common stock upon vesting. The restricted stock units were granted with a  i two year vesting schedule and vest on the one and two year anniversaries of the grant date at a rate of  i 50% per year. The restricted stock units do not participate in dividends during the vesting period. The fair value of restricted stock units granted were estimated using the closing price of Woodward common stock on the grant date.

Stock-based compensation expense

Woodward recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Pursuant to form stock option agreements used by the Company, with terms approved by the administrator of the applicable plan, the requisite service period can be less than the four year vesting period based on grantee’s retirement eligibility. As such, the recognition of stock-based compensation expense associated with some stock option grants can be accelerated to a period of less than four years, including immediate recognition of stock-based compensation expense on the date of grant.

At June 30, 2019, there was approximately $ i 13,849 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock-based compensation arrangements, including both stock options and restricted stock awards. The pre-vesting forfeiture rates for purposes of determining stock-based compensation expense recognized were estimated to be  i 0% for members of Woodward’s board of directors and  i 9% for all others. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately  i 2.2 years.

 i Note 21. Commitments and contingencies

Woodward is currently involved in claims, pending or threatened litigation or other legal proceedings, investigations and/or regulatory proceedings arising in the normal course of business, including, among others, those relating to product liability claims, employment matters, worker’s compensation claims, contractual disputes, product warranty claims and alleged violations of various laws and regulations. Woodward accrues for known individual matters using estimates of the most likely amount of loss where it believes that it is probable the matter will result in a loss when ultimately resolved and such loss is reasonably estimable.

Legal costs are expensed as incurred and are classified in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

Woodward is partially self-insured in the United States for healthcare and worker’s compensation up to predetermined amounts, above which third party insurance applies. Management regularly reviews the probable outcome of related claims and proceedings, the expenses expected to be incurred, the availability and limits of the insurance coverage, and the established accruals for liabilities.

While the outcome of pending claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and investigations cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that any liabilities that may result from these claims, proceedings and investigations will not have a material effect on Woodward’s liquidity, financial condition, or results of operations.

In the event of a change in control of Woodward, as defined in change-in-control agreements with its current corporate officers, Woodward may be required to pay termination benefits to any such officer if such officer’s employment is terminated within  i two years following the change of control.

On April 9, 2019, Senvion, a German wind turbine manufacturer and a significant customer of Woodward’s renewables business, announced that it filed for self-administration insolvency proceedings and declared it would be exploring options for the sale or partial liquidation of the company. In parallel, Senvion announced that it has sought financing to secure the continuation of its operations, which it announced may allow the company to successfully exit the insolvency process. On April 17, 2019, Senvion announced that it signed a €100,000 bulk loan agreement with its lenders and major bondholders to enable the company to continue its business activities. Since signing the €100,000 bulk loan agreement, Senvion has entered into service contract extensions and has continued commercial operations. On July 30, 2019, Senvion announced that it has reached an agreement with its lenders which gives financial support for the continuation of its business until the end of August and potentially for a period thereafter if ongoing talks with lenders can be concluded successfully. Woodward will continue to analyze any financial and commercial impact of the Senvion insolvency proceedings, including any adverse effect the proceedings may have on its financial results. Although management believes any such effect would not be material to

44


Woodward as a whole, the impact of the potential loss of this customer would be significant to Woodward’s renewables business.

 

 i Note 22. Segment information

Woodward serves the aerospace and industrial markets through its  i two reportable segments - Aerospace and Industrial. When appropriate, Woodward’s reportable segments are aggregations of Woodward’s operating segments. Woodward uses operating segment information internally to manage its business, including the assessment of operating segment performance and decisions for the allocation of resources between operating segments. Woodward L’Orange has been included in Woodward’s Industrial segment results since the Closing.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those of the Company. Woodward evaluates segment profit or loss based on internal performance measures for each segment in a given period. In connection with that assessment, Woodward generally excludes matters such as certain charges for restructuring, interest income and expense, certain gains and losses from asset dispositions, or other non-recurring and/or non-operationally related expenses.

OVERVIEW

New Accounting Policy

We adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all subsequently issued supplemental and/or clarifying ASUs related to ASU 2014-09 (collectively “ASC 606”) on October 1, 2018 and elected the modified retrospective transition method. The results for periods prior to fiscal year 2019 were not adjusted for the new standard and the cumulative effect of the change in accounting of $28,927, as previously reported, was recognized as a net increase to retained earnings at the date of adoption.

Subsequent to the adoption of ASC 606 and the issuance of Woodwards unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three-months ended December 31, 2018 and the three and six-months ended March 31, 2019, Woodward’s management identified an inconsistency in the application of ASC 606, which caused the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the quarters ended December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019, as well as the cumulative impact of the adoption of ASC 606 on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of October 1, 2018, to be misstated by amounts that management concluded were not material. For the three-months ended December 31, 2018, management determined that as a result of the error net sales were understated by $8,164, earnings before income taxes were understated by $4,509, net earnings were understated by $3,355, and diluted earnings per share were understated by $0.05. For the three-months ended March 31, 2019, management determined that as a result of the error net sales were understated by $5,450, earnings before income taxes were understated by $3,532, net earnings were understated by $2,682, and diluted earnings per share were understated by $0.04.

Woodward corrected the error as of the date of adoption by revising the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of October 1, 2018. After revision, the cumulative effect of the change in accounting recognized as a net increase to retained earnings at the date of adoption was determined to be $38,745, an increase of $9,818 from the amount originally recorded. Retained earnings as of April 1, 2019 increased by a corresponding amount in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity for the three-months ended June 30, 2019.

To correct the errors for the three-months ended December 31, 2018 and for the three and six-months ended March 31, 2019, Woodward made an out-of-period correction in the three-months ended June 30, 2019. The correction resulted in increases to net sales of $13,614, earnings before income taxes of $8,041, net earnings of $6,037, and diluted earnings per share of $0.09 for the three-months ended June 30, 2019, the majority of which relates to Woodward’s Aerospace segment (see Note 3, Revenue, for further details).

Overall, we continue to believe the net earnings impact of the adoption of ASC 606, when compared to net earnings under the previous guidance, will not be material for the full fiscal year 2019. However, there will be ongoing quarterly variability in both sales and net earnings resulting from the adoption of ASC 606 as compared to the prior year amounts presented under the previous guidance. The adoption of ASC 606 has no impact on our cash flows.

In the following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and liquidity, we compare the results for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019, which were prepared under ASC 606, to the results for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2018, which were prepared under the previous guidance, ASC 605. In instances where the change in accounting resulting from the adoption of ASC 606 is considered to be significant, we have identified the impact of ASC 606 on the current period results, which management believes improves comparability to the prior period results prepared under ASC 605.

The following table sets forth a comparison of select financial results as accounted for under both ASC 606 and ASC 605. The financial results for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019 are presented under both the current guidance of ASC 606 and as if prepared under the previous guidance of ASC 605. We believe this improves the comparability of the financial results between the periods presented. The select financial results are presented on both an as reported basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and on an as adjusted basis, which represents a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure. The as adjusted non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, which differ from the similarly named financial measure as determined under either ASC 606 or ASC 605, include adjusted net earnings, adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted industrial segment earnings. A description of these measures as well as a reconciliation of these non-U.S.GAAP financial measures to the closest U.S. GAAP financial measures can be found under the caption “Non-U.S. GAAP Measures” in this Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations.

L’Orange Acquisition

On April 8, 2018, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “L’Orange Agreement”) with MTU Friedrichshafen GmbH (“MTU”) and MTU America Inc. (together with MTU, the “Sellers”), both of which were subsidiaries of Rolls-Royce PLC (“Rolls-Royce”). Pursuant to the L’Orange Agreement, we agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of stock of L’Orange GmbH, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries in China and Germany, as well as all of the outstanding equity interests of its affiliate, Fluid Mechanics LLC, and their related operations (collectively, “L’Orange”), for total consideration (including cash consideration and the assumption of certain liabilities) of €700,000, or approximately $811,000 (the “L’Orange Acquisition”). The L’Orange Acquisition closed on June 1, 2018 (the “Closing”) and L’Orange became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. L’Orange has been renamed Woodward L’Orange.

Woodward L’Orange is a supplier of fuel injection systems for industrial diesel, heavy fuel oil and dual-fuel engines. Woodward L’Orange supplies fuel injection technology for engines that power a wide range of industrial applications including marine power and propulsion systems, special-application off road vehicles, locomotives, oil and gas processing,

50


and power generation. Woodward L’Orange serves many large specialist diesel engine manufacturers, including Rolls-Royce Power Systems’ subsidiaries, MTU and Bergen Engines, and other low to high speed engine builders. Woodward L’Orange has been integrated into the Company’s Industrial segment.

Financial information for Woodward L’Orange is reflected in our financial statements from the date of the Closing. As a result of this acquisition, a comparison of results for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019 to the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2018 may not be particularly meaningful with regard to the performance of Woodward’s organic business. References to “organic” sales relate to net sales of Woodward businesses excluding those attributable to Woodward L’Orange.

Operational Highlights

Third Quarter Highlights

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 were $752,005, an increase of 27.9% from $588,117 for the third quarter of the prior year. Organic net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, which excludes $78,517 of net sales attributable to Woodward L’Orange, were $673,488, an increase of 19.6% compared to organic net sales of $563,239 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Organic net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 excludes one month of net sales attributable to Woodward L’Orange in the amount of $24,878. Organic net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 include additional net sales of $50,338 recognized under ASC 606 that would not have been recognized under the previous guidance.

Liquidity Highlights

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 was $219,202, compared to $162,083 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 compared to the first nine months of the prior fiscal year is primarily attributable to increased earnings and the timing of certain cash payments for accounts payable in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, partially offset by the timing of cash receipts from higher sales in the period and increased investment in inventories to support an increase in sales.

For the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, free cash flow, which we define as net cash flows from operating activities less payments for property, plant and equipment, was $141,297, compared to $72,486 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. (A reconciliation of free cash flow, a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, to the closest U.S. GAAP financial measure can be found under the caption Non-U.S. GAAP Measures” in this Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations.)

On June 19, 2019, we amended our revolving credit facility to, among other things, extend the termination date of the revolving loan commitments of the lenders thereunder from April 28, 2020 to June 19, 2024 and modify the option to increase available borrowings from $1,200,000 to $1,500,000, subject to lenders participation (the “Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement”). The terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement are similar to the prior credit agreement.

At June 30, 2019, we held $63,302 in cash and cash equivalents, and had total outstanding debt of $1,191,147 with additional borrowing availability of $627,203, net of outstanding letters of credit, under our revolving credit agreement. At June 30, 2019, we also had additional borrowing capacity of $7,593 under various foreign lines of credit and foreign overdraft facilities.

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 increased by $163,888, or 27.9%, compared to the same period of fiscal year 2018. Consolidated net sales for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 increased by $557,146, or 34.7%, compared to the same period of fiscal year 2018. Net sales for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 include additional net sales of $50,579 and $106,366, respectively, recognized under ASC 606 that would not have been recognized under the previous guidance. Net sales for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 under ASC 606 increased primarily as a result of customer provided inventory required to be included in net sales (“noncash consideration”). Organic net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, which exclude $78,517 of net sales attributable to Woodward L’Orange, increased by 19.6%, compared to organic net sales for the same period of fiscal year 2018. Organic net

sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 excludes one month of net sales attributable to Woodward L’Orange in the amount of $24,878. Organic consolidated net sales for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, which excludes $254,183 of net sales attributable to Woodward L’Orange, increased by 20.7%, compared to organic consolidated net sales for the same period of fiscal year 2018. Organic net sales for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018 excludes one month of net sales attributable to Woodward L’Orange in the amount of $24,878. Organic consolidated net sales for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 include additional net sales of $50,338 and $105,176, respectively, recognized under ASC 606 that would not have been recognized under the previous guidance.

The increase in consolidated net sales for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 is primarily attributable to continued strength across commercial and defense original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) and defense aftermarket sales in the Aerospace segment. In the Industrial segment, the increase in organic net sales volumes is primarily attributable to increased sales in our reciprocating engine business, partially offset by continuing challenges in our renewables business.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of goods sold increased by $133,842 to $562,515, or 74.8% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, from $428,673, or 72.9% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Cost of goods sold increased by $443,072 to $1,621,531, or 74.9% of net sales, for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 from $1,178,459, or 73.4% of net sales, for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. The increase in cost of goods sold in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 as compared to the same periods of the prior year is primarily attributable to higher sales volume, additional costs of goods sold attributable to Woodward L’Orange sales, additional cost of goods sold attributable to noncash consideration from customer supplied inventory recognized under ASC 606, and higher manufacturing costs related to increased capacity expansion costs to support higher production levels.

Gross margin (as measured by net sales less cost of goods sold, divided by net sales) was 25.2% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, compared to 27.1% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. The decrease in gross margin is primarily attributable to higher manufacturing costs related to increased capacity expansion costs to support increased production levels, an unfavorable sales mix of lower gross margin products in our Industrial segment, and the noncash consideration recognized under ASC 606. Noncash consideration negatively impacts gross margin as the inventory recognized as net sales under a noncash consideration transaction is reflected in cost of goods sold at an amount equal to the sales value.

Gross margin was 25.1% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, compared to 26.6% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. The decrease in gross margin is primarily attributable to the amortization of the acquired Woodward L’Orange backlog intangible asset, which is recognized as a noncash increase to cost of goods sold, higher manufacturing costs related to increased capacity expansion costs to support increased production levels, and an unfavorable sales mix of lower gross margin products in our Industrial segment. Gross margin for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 was further negatively impacted by noncash consideration recognized under ASC 606.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $1,888, or 3.4%, to $52,980 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, compared to $54,868 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $18,682, or 13.2%, to $159,764 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, compared to $141,082 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. The third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2018 included special charges associated with the L’Orange Acquisition. These special charges consisted of transaction and integration costs of $3,077 and $4,358 in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2018, respectively, warranty and indemnity insurance costs of $4,293 in both the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2018, and German real estate transfer tax charges of $3,385 in both the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2018. Excluding these special charges in both the third

54


quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2018, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 20.1% in the third quarter and 23.8% in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 primarily due to an increase in certain expenses to support ongoing company growth and the inclusion of a full three-months and nine-months, respectively, of selling, general and administrative expenses attributable to Woodward L’Orange. Also contributing the increase in the nine-months ended June 30, 2019 was an increase in variable compensation related to the strong financial performance in the first nine months of the fiscal year. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 7.0% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, compared to 9.3% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 and 7.4% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, compared to 8.8% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018.

Research and development costs increased by $1,191, or 3.0%, to $40,661 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, as compared to $39,470 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Research and development costs as a percentage of net sales decreased to 5.4% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, as compared to 6.7% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Research and development costs increased by $11,934, or 10.7%, to $123,359 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, as compared to $111,425 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. Research and development costs decreased as a percentage of net sales to 5.7% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, as compared to 6.9% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018.

Research and development costs in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 were higher primarily due to research and development costs attributable to Woodward L’Orange. Also contributing to higher research and developments costs in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 was an increase in variable compensation related to the strong financial performance in the first nine months of the fiscal year. Our research and development activities extend across almost all of our customer base, and we anticipate ongoing variability in research and development due to the timing of customer business needs on current and future programs.

Restructuring charges of $17,013 recognized in the first nine months of fiscal year 2018 related primarily to our decision in the second quarter of fiscal year 2018 to relocate our Duarte, California operations to the Company’s newly renovated Drake Campus in Fort Collins, Colorado (the “Duarte Relocation”). Also included in the restructuring charges of $17,013 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018 were workforce management costs related to our ongoing effort to align our industrial turbomachinery business, which is part of our Industrial segment, with the then current market conditions. All of the restructuring charges recorded in the first nine months of fiscal 2018 were recorded as nonsegment expenses. There were no restructuring charges recorded in the third quarter or first nine months of fiscal year 2019.

Interest expense increased by $742, or 7.4%, to $10,798, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, compared to $10,056 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Interest expense decreased as a percentage of net sales to 1.4% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, as compared to 1.7% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Interest expense increased by $6,405, or 23.1%, to $34,156 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, as compared to $27,751 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. Interest expense as a percentage of net sales was 1.6% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, compared to 1.7% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. The increase in interest expense in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 compared to the same periods of fiscal year 2018 is primarily due to the additional interest expense associated with the financing of the L’Orange Acquisition. Related to the L’Orange Acquisition, on May 31, 2018 we issued an aggregate principal amount of $400,000 of senior unsecured notes in a series of private placement transactions and borrowed $167,420 under our revolving credit agreement to fund the acquisition.

The increase in the effective tax rate for the three-months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the three-months ended June 30, 2018 is primarily attributable to favorable resolutions of tax matters in the prior fiscal year quarter that did not repeat in the current quarter and an unfavorable adjustment related to the one-time repatriation tax on deferred foreign income (the “Transition Tax”) resulting from final regulations issued by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) on June 14, 2019 that modified the Transition Tax computation required by “The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” enacted in December 2017 (the “Tax Act”). Also contributing to the increase in the quarter was the loss of the domestic production activities deduction in the current quarter and the increase in the U.S. federal corporate income tax on estimated current year foreign earnings. Partially offsetting these increases were the impacts of the Tax Act on the resolution of the fiscal year 2014, 2015, and 2016 IRS audits recorded in the prior fiscal year quarter that did not repeat in the current quarter and the reduction in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate provided by the Tax Act.

The decrease in the effective tax rate for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2018 is primarily attributable to higher income tax expense related to the Tax Act recognized in the prior fiscal year compared to the amount recognized in the current fiscal year, the reduction in the in U.S. federal corporate income tax rate provided by the Tax Act in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, and an increase in the net excess income tax benefits from stock-based compensation in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019. Partially offsetting this decrease were favorable resolutions of tax matters in the first nine months of the prior fiscal year that did not repeat in the first nine months of the current fiscal year, an increase in the U.S. federal corporate income tax on estimated current year foreign earnings in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, and the loss of the domestic production activities deduction in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019.

Woodward’s tax returns are subject to audits by U.S. federal, state, and foreign tax authorities, and these audits are at various stages of completion at any given time. Reviews of tax matters by authorities and lapses of the applicable statutes of limitation may result in changes to tax expense. Woodward’s fiscal years remaining open to examination for U.S. Federal income taxes include fiscal years 2017 and thereafter. In fiscal year 2018, Woodward concluded its U.S. federal income tax examinations through fiscal year 2016. Woodward’s fiscal years remaining open to examination for significant U.S. state income tax jurisdictions include fiscal years 2014 and thereafter. Woodward closed various audits in foreign jurisdictions in the second and third quarters of fiscal year 2019.

Aerospace

Aerospace segment net sales increased by $94,163, or 23.3% to $498,775 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, compared to $404,612 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Aerospace segment net sales increased by $277,756, or 25.3%, to $1,374,616 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, compared to $1,096,860 for the same period of fiscal year 2018. Aerospace segment net sales for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 include additional net sales of $50,560 and $103,969, respectively, recognized under ASC 606 that would not have been recognized under the previous guidance. The remaining increase in segment net sales for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019, as compared to the same periods of fiscal year 2018, was driven by continued strength across commercial OEM as a result of continued momentum in next generation aircraft production, and defense OEM and aftermarket programs as a result of higher military spending.

Commercial OEM sales increased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 as compared to the same periods of fiscal year 2018, driven by production of next generation narrowbody commercial aircraft on which we have increased content. Commercial aftermarket sales remained healthy in the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 and were higher in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 as compared to the same period of fiscal year 2018 as a result of increased utilization of existing fleets and the initial provisioning for new platforms. As anticipated, initial provisioning was lower due to the grounding of the Boeing 737MAX and compared to a very strong third quarter in the prior year.

U.S. government funding for defense platforms on which we have content remains strong. Defense OEM sales increased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 compared to the same periods of fiscal year 2018, driven primarily by continued strong demand for smart weapons, as well as growing international demand for various other military programs. Defense aftermarket sales remained strong through the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, with a significant increase in defense aftermarket sales in the third quarter. We expect some ongoing variability in defense aftermarket sales due to the timing of continued maintenance needs and upgrade programs.

Aerospace segment earnings increased by $19,351, or 23.1%, to $103,238 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, compared to $83,887 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Aerospace segment earnings increased by $74,030, or 36.3%, to $277,814 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, compared to $203,784 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. Aerospace segment earnings for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 include an increase in segment

57


earnings of $5,877 and $13,306, respectively, as a result of revenue recognized under ASC 606 that would not have been recognized under the previous guidance. Fluctuations in Aerospace segment earnings as a percentage of additional revenue recognized under ASC 606 are a result of gross margin differences associated with the timing of sales under ASC 606 compared to those under the previous guidance.

Aerospace segment earnings as a percentage of segment net sales were 20.7% for both the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 and fiscal year 2018. Aerospace segment earnings as a percentage of segment net sales were 20.2% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, compared to 18.6% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. Excluding the impact of the change in accounting following the adoption of ASC 606, Aerospace segment earnings as a percent of net sales were 21.7% for the third quarter and 20.8% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019. Aerospace segment earnings in both the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 benefitted from higher sales volume and, in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, a favorable product sales mix. Partially offsetting these in both the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 were higher manufacturing costs related to increased capacity expansion costs to support higher production levels, and other costs primarily including an increase in variable compensation related to the strong financial performance in the first nine months of the fiscal year.

Industrial

Industrial segment net sales increased by $69,725, or 38.0%, to $253,230 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, compared to $183,505 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Industrial segment net sales increased by $279,390 or 54.8%, to $789,044 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, compared to $509,654 for the same period of fiscal year 2018. Foreign currency exchange rates had an unfavorable impact on segment net sales of $6,227 and $18,951 for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019, respectively. Organic Industrial segment net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, which excludes $78,517 of net sales attributable to Woodward L’Orange, were $174,713, an increase of 10.1% compared to organic Industrial segment net sales of $158,627 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Organic Industrial net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 excludes one month of net sales attributable to Woodward L’Orange in the amount of $24,878. On a constant currency basis, organic Industrial segment net sales would have increased approximately 14.1% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 compared to the same quarter of the prior fiscal year. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a significant impact on the organic Industrial segment net sales recognized for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019. Organic Industrial segment net sales for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, which exclude $254,183 of net sales attributable to Woodward L’Orange, were $534,861, an increase of 10.3% compared to organic Industrial segment net sales of $484,776 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. Organic Industrial net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 excludes one month of net sales attributable to Woodward L’Orange in the amount of $24,878. On a constant currency basis, organic Industrial segment net sales would have increased approximately 14.2% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 compared to the first nine months of the prior fiscal year. Organic Industrial segment net sales for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 include additional net sales of $1,207 as a result of revenue recognized under ASC 606 that would not have been recognized under the previous guidance.

The increase in organic Industrial segment net sales in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 was primarily due to increased reciprocating engine sales and industrial gas turbine sales, partially offset by continuing declines in renewables sales. Sales of fuel systems for compressed natural gas (“CNG”) trucks in Asia continues to drive the increase in our engine business. The recent transition to China 6 regulations led to strong demand for China 5-compliant natural gas trucks leading up to the implementation. As a result, we expect some variability in the demand for natural gas trucks in China as the market absorbs the large pre-buy activities of China 5-compliant natural gas trucks and as the market transitions to the next generation China 6-complaint natural gas trucks. We continue to expect the market demand for natural gas trucks to remain favorable as the Chinese government continues to encourage natural gas usage under its initiative on air quality improvement. The industrial gas turbine business has remained stable with some year-over-year and sequential quarter sales growth. Industrial gas turbine sales in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 continues to benefit from the

58


depletion of inventory levels in the market and increased Woodward content on certain newer industrial gas turbines. Woodward expects modest year-over-year and sequential industrial gas turbine sales growth to continue into the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019.

Our renewables business has been unfavorably impacted by both platform transitions by some of our customers to wind turbines with less Woodward content and the shift from government subsidies to auction-based schemes, which have driven down market pricing and intensified competition.

On April 9, 2019, Senvion, a German wind turbine manufacturer and a significant customer of Woodward’s renewables business, announced that it filed for self-administration insolvency proceedings and declared it would be exploring options for the sale or partial liquidation of the company. In parallel, Senvion announced that it has sought financing to secure the continuation of its operations, which it announced may allow the company to successfully exit the insolvency process. On April 17, 2019, Senvion announced that it signed a €100,000 bulk loan agreement with its lenders and major bondholders to enable the company to continue its business activities. Since signing the €100,000 bulk loan agreement, Senvion has entered into service contract extensions and has continued commercial operations. On July 30, 2019, Senvion announced that it has reached an agreement with its lenders which gives financial support for the continuation of its business until the end of August and potentially for a period thereafter if ongoing talks with lenders can be concluded successfully. Woodward will continue to analyze any financial and commercial impact of the Senvion insolvency proceedings, including any adverse effect the proceedings may have on its financial results. Although management believes it would not be material to Woodward as a whole, the impact of the potential loss of this customer would be significant to Woodward’s renewables business.

Industrial segment earnings increased by $15,297, or 139.8%, to $26,240 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, compared to $10,943 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Segment earnings increased by $41,126, or 99.3%, to $82,537 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, compared to $41,411 for the same period of fiscal year 2018. Adjusted Industrial segment earnings, which exclude certain purchase accounting impacts related to the L’Orange Acquisition, were $28,844 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, an increase of 49.9% compared to the third quarter of fiscal year 2018, and $103,637 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, an increase of 108.5% compared to same period of fiscal year 2018. Industrial segment earnings for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 include an increase in segment earnings of $2,780 and $2,037, respectively, as a result of the adoption of ASC 606 that would not have been recognized under the previous guidance. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a significant impact on adjusted Industrial segment earnings for the third quarter or first nine months of fiscal year 2019. Fluctuations in Industrial segment earnings and adjusted Industrial segment earnings as a percentage of additional revenue recognized under ASC 606 are a result of gross margin differences associated with the timing of sales under ASC 606 compared to those under the previous guidance.

The net increase in Industrial segment earnings for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 was due to the following:

Excluding the impact of the change in accounting following the adoption of ASC 606, Industrial segment earnings as a percent of net sales were 9.3% and 10.2% for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019, respectively. Adjusted Industrial segment earnings as a percentage of segment net sales were 11.4% for the third quarter and 13.1% for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019. Excluding the impact of the change in accounting following the adoption of ASC 606, adjusted Industrial segment earnings as a percent of segment net sales were 11.2% and 13.2% for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019, respectively. The increase in Industrial segment earnings in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2019 was primarily due to earnings attributable to Woodward L’Orange and higher organic sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable sales mix and higher other costs primarily including an increase in variable compensation related to the strong financial performance in the first nine months of the fiscal year.

Nonsegment expenses

Nonsegment expenses decreased to $26,714 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, compared to $30,699 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. Included in nonsegment expenses for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 were charges in the amount of $7,035 related to the relocation of our Duarte, California operations to our newly renovated Drake campus in Fort Collins, Colorado (“Duarte move related costs”). Included in nonsegment expenses for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 were certain special charges related to the acquisition of Woodward L’Orange (“L’Orange Acquisition Related Charges”), as well as Duarte move related costs of $2,057. The L’Orange Acquisition Related Charges recognized in the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 included (i) merger and acquisition transaction and integration costs, (ii) costs associated with an at-the-money-forward option (the “Forward Option”), (iii) warranty and indemnity insurance costs associated with the L’Orange Acquisition, and (iv) German real estate transfer tax costs associated with the L’Orange Acquisition. Excluding these charges from both 2019 and 2018, nonsegment expenses increased in the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 compared to the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 primarily due to an increase in variable compensation related to the strong financial performance in the first nine months of the fiscal year, as well as an increase in certain expenses to support ongoing company growth.

Nonsegment expenses increased to $83,211 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, compared to $78,069 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. Included in nonsegment expenses for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 were Duarte move related costs of $23,159. In addition to L’Orange Acquisition Related Charges, included in nonsegment expenses for the first nine months of fiscal year 2018 were Duarte move related costs of $2,301 and restructuring charges of $17,013. Excluding these charges from both 2019 and 2018, nonsegment expenses increased in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 compared to the same period in fiscal year 2018 primarily due an increase in variable compensation related to the strong financial performance in the first nine months of the fiscal year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Historically, we have satisfied our working capital needs, as well as capital expenditures, product development and other liquidity requirements associated with our operations, with cash flow provided by operating activities and borrowings under our credit facilities. Historically, we have also issued debt to supplement our cash needs, repay our other indebtedness, or finance our acquisitions. We expect that cash generated from our operating activities, together with borrowings under our revolving credit facility and other borrowing capacity, will be sufficient to fund our continuing operating needs, including capital expansion funding for the foreseeable future. The adoption of ASC 606 does not impact cash flow from operations nor free cash flow.

Our aggregate cash and cash equivalents were $63,302 at June 30, 2019 and $83,594 at September 30, 2018, and our working capital was $655,437 at June 30, 2019 and $523,619 at September 30, 2018. Of the cash and cash equivalents held at June 30, 2019, $59,391 was held by our foreign locations. We are not presently aware of any significant restrictions on the repatriation of these funds, although a portion is considered indefinitely reinvested in these foreign subsidiaries. If these funds were needed to fund our operations or satisfy obligations in the United States, then they could be repatriated and their repatriation into the United States may cause us to incur additional U.S. income taxes or foreign withholding taxes. Any additional U.S. taxes could be offset, in part or in whole, by foreign tax credits. The amount of such taxes and application of tax credits would be dependent on the income tax laws and other circumstances at the time these amounts are repatriated. Based on these variables, it is impractical to determine the income tax liability that might be incurred if these funds were to be repatriated. The additional uncertainty associated with the Tax Act increases the impracticality of determining this income tax liability.

We do not believe the one-time repatriation tax on deferred foreign income resulting from the Tax Act, which is expected to be paid over an eight year period that began in January 2019, will have a significant impact on our cash flows in any individual fiscal year.

Consistent with common business practice in China, our Chinese subsidiaries accept bankers’ acceptance notes from Chinese customers, in settlement of certain customer accounts receivable. Bankers’ acceptance notes are financial instruments issued by Chinese financial institutions as part of financing arrangements between the financial institution and a customer of the financial institution. Bankers’ acceptance notes represent a commitment by the issuing financial institution to pay a certain amount of money at a specified future maturity date to the legal owner of the bankers’ acceptance note as of the maturity date. The maturity date of bankers’ acceptance notes varies, but it is our policy to only accept bankers’ acceptance notes with maturity dates no more than 180 days from the date of our receipt of such draft. The issuing financial institution is the obligor, not our customers. Upon our acceptance of a bankers’ acceptance note from a customer, such customer has no further obligation to pay us for the related accounts receivable balance. We had bankers’ acceptance notes of $86,059 at June 30, 2019 and $23,191 at September 30, 2018 recorded as non-customer accounts receivable in our

60


Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We only accept bankers’ acceptance notes issued by banks that are believed to be creditworthy and to which the credit risks associated with the bankers’ acceptance notes are believed to be low.

On June 19, 2019, we amended our revolving credit agreement to, among other things, extend the termination date of the revolving loan commitments of the lenders thereunder from April 28, 2020 to June 19, 2024. Our revolving credit facility, as amended, provides a borrowing capacity of up to $1,000,000 with the option to increase total available borrowings to up to $1,500,000, subject to lenders’ participation. We can borrow against our revolving credit facility as long as we are in compliance with all of our debt covenants. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility can be made in U.S. dollars or in foreign currencies other than the U.S. dollar provided that the U.S. dollar equivalent of any foreign currency borrowings and U.S. dollar borrowings does not, in total, exceed the borrowing capacity of the revolving credit facility. Historically, we have used borrowings under our revolving credit facilities to meet certain short-term working capital needs, as well as for strategic uses, including repurchases of our common stock, payments of dividends, acquisitions, and facility expansions.

In addition to our revolving credit facility, we have various foreign credit facilities, some of which are tied to net amounts on deposit at certain foreign financial institutions. These foreign credit facilities are reviewed annually for renewal. We use borrowings under these foreign credit facilities to finance certain local operations on a periodic basis. For further discussion of our revolving credit facility and our other credit facilities, see Note 14, Credit facilities, short-term borrowings and long-term debt in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item I of this Form 10-Q.

At June 30, 2019, we had total outstanding debt of $1,191,147 consisting of various series of unsecured notes due between 2020 and 2033, and amounts borrowed under our revolving credit facility. At June 30, 2019, we had additional borrowing availability of $627,203 under our revolving credit facility, net of outstanding letters of credit, and additional borrowing availability of $7,593 under various foreign credit facilities. On October 1, 2018, Woodward paid the entire principal balance of $100,000 on the Series D Notes using proceeds from borrowings under its revolving credit facility. On April 3, 2019, we paid the entire principal balance of $43,000 on our 8.24% unsecured Series F notes using proceeds from borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

At June 30, 2019, we had $361,852 of borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility, $180,000 of which was classified as short-term borrowings based on our intent and ability to pay this amount in the next twelve months. Of these borrowings, as of June 30, 2019, $344,800 is denominated in U.S. dollars and €15,000 is denominated in Euro. Revolving credit facility and short-term borrowing activity during the nine-months ended June 30, 2019 were as follows:

Maximum daily balance during the period

$

449,802 

Average daily balance during the period

$

366,630

We believe we were in compliance with all our debt covenants as of June 30, 2019. See Note 13, Credit facilities, short-term borrowings and long-term debt in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of our most recent Form 10-K, for more information about our covenants.

In addition to utilizing our cash resources to fund the working capital needs of our business, we evaluate additional strategic uses of our funds, including the repurchase of our common stock, payment of dividends, significant capital expenditures, consideration of strategic acquisitions and other potential uses of cash.

In fiscal year 2018, we entered into the L’Orange Agreement. Pursuant to the L’Orange Agreement, we agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of stock of L’Orange. We completed the acquisition of L’Orange on June 1, 2018, for total consideration (including cash consideration and the assumption of certain liabilities) of €700,000, or approximately $811,000. The cash consideration was financed through the use of cash on hand, the issuance of senior unsecured notes and $167,420 borrowed under our revolving credit facility. In connection with these borrowings, we entered into cross currency swap transactions, which effectively lowered the interest rate on each tranche of the senior unsecured notes, and the borrowings under our revolving credit agreement (see Note 8, Derivative instruments and hedging activities in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item I of this Form 10-Q for more information).

Our ability to service our long-term debt, to remain in compliance with the various restrictions and covenants contained in our debt agreements, and to fund working capital, capital expenditures and product development efforts will depend on our ability to generate cash from operating activities, which in turn is subject to, among other things, future operating performance as well as general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, and other conditions, some of which may be beyond our control.

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, our board of directors terminated our prior stock repurchase program and replaced it with a new program for the repurchase of up to $500,000 of Woodward’s outstanding shares of common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions over a three year period that will end in November 2019 (the “2017

61


Authorization”). In the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, we repurchased 1,102 shares of our common stock for $110,311 under the 2017 Authorization pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan. We purchased no stock in the first nine months of fiscal year 2018.

For our Aerospace segment, we have been purchasing production equipment for our second campus in the greater-Rockford, Illinois area and anticipate continuing such purchases as new aircraft platforms ramp up to full production volumes. The second campus was built to support the expected growth in our Aerospace segment as a result of our being awarded a substantial number of new system platforms, particularly on narrow-body aircraft.

In the third quarter of fiscal year 2018, we announced our decision to relocate our Duarte, California operations to the Company’s newly renovated Drake Campus in Fort Collins, Colorado. The carrying value of the assets at the Duarte facility in California was $10,738 as of June 30, 2019, of which we have identified assets held for sale with a carrying value of $7,848. The assets held for sale relate to the land, building and building improvements, and other assets at the Duarte facility. Based on current market conditions, we expect to record a gain on the eventual sale of these assets. We have identified approximately $377 that is planned to be disposed of as a result of the relocation.

We believe that cash flows from operations, along with our contractually committed borrowings and other borrowing capability, will continue to be sufficient to fund anticipated capital spending requirements and our operations for the foreseeable future. However, we could be adversely affected if the financial institutions providing our capital requirements refuse to honor their contractual commitments, cease lending, or declare bankruptcy. We believe the lending institutions participating in our credit arrangements are financially stable.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 was $219,202, compared to $162,083 for the same period of fiscal year 2018. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 compared to the first nine months of the prior fiscal year is primarily attributable to increased earnings and the timing of certain cash payments for accounts payable in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, partially offset by the timing of cash receipts from higher sales in the period and increased investment in inventories to support an increase in sales. In addition to cash flows from net earnings in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, increased accounts payable and accrued liabilities provided $32,104 in cash flow, while increased accounts receivable and inventory used cash of $25,582 and $93,681, respectively, and income taxes used cash of $7,096. Depreciation and amortization in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 was $110,837. Increases in both current unbilled receivables (contract assets) and contract liabilities had an insignificant net impact. Although the balance of current unbilled receivables (contract assets) and contract liabilities is expected to remain variable, the adoption of ASC 606 has no net impact on our net cash flows provided by operating activities.

Net cash flows used in investing activities for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 was $79,826, compared to $851,307 in the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. The decrease in cash used in investing activities in the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 compared to the first nine months of the prior fiscal year is primarily due to cash used for the acquisition of L’Orange on June 1, 2018 and a decrease in payments for property plant and equipment, partially offset by an increase in payments for purchases of short-term investments.

Net cash flows used in financing activities for the first nine months of fiscal year 2019 was $159,008, compared to net cash flows provided of $721,194 in the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. In the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, we repurchased 1,102 shares of our common stock for $110,311 pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan under the 2017 Authorization. We made no stock repurchases in the first nine months of fiscal year 2018. Also during the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, we had net debt payments of $51,189 and had cash dividends paid of $28,985. The net cash flows provided by financing activities in the first nine months of fiscal year 2018 is primarily the result of the issuance of an aggregate principal amount of $400,000 of long-term debt in May 2018 and borrowings of $167,420 under our revolving credit facility, both of which were used primarily to finance the acquisition of L’Orange. Also during the first nine months of fiscal year 2018, we had net

62


debt borrowings unrelated to the acquisition of L’Orange in the amount of $178,746, partially offset by cash dividends paid of $25,206 and payments of $5,543 for the settlement of the Forward Option.

Contractual Obligations

We have various contractual obligations, including obligations related to long-term debt, operating and capital leases, purchases, retirement pension benefit plans, and other postretirement benefit plans. These contractual obligations are summarized and discussed more fully in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7 of our most recent Form 10-K. Other than the amended revolving credit agreement discussed above, there have been no material changes to our various contractual obligations during the first nine months of fiscal year 2019.

Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures

Organic net sales, organic Industrial segment net sales, constant currency organic Industrial segment net sales, adjusted net earnings, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted Industrial segment earnings, EBIT, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow are financial measures not prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, we believe these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures provide additional information that enables readers to evaluate our business from the perspective of management.

Organic net sales and organic Industrial net sales

The Company presents certain sales measures excluding Woodward L’Orange net sales, which it refers to as “organic,” to show the changes to Woodward’s historical business. Management believes this improves comparability to the Company’s performance prior to the L’Orange Acquisition, which occurred in June 2018.

Constant currency organic Industrial segment net sales

The Company presents certain sales measures excluding the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations, which is refers to as being presented on a “constant currency basis.” The Company calculates sales measures on a constant currency basis by applying the foreign currency exchange rate in effect during the prior year comparative period to the current year sales measure in its local currency. The sales measures, when calculated on a constant currency basis, are intended to supplement our reported operating results and, when considered in conjunction with the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures, facilitate a better understanding of changes in the metrics from period to period and the core operations of the Company.

Earnings based non-U.S. GAAP financial measures

Adjusted net earnings is defined by the Company as net earnings excluding, as applicable, (i) restructuring charges, (ii) Duarte move related costs, (iii) the purchase accounting impacts related to the revaluation of the Woodward L’Orange inventory recognized in cost of goods sold and the amortization of the backlog intangible, (iv) the L’Orange Acquisition transaction and integration costs, (v) cost associated with the Forward Option, (vi) warranty and indemnity insurance costs associated with the acquisition of Woodward L’Orange, (vii) German real estate transfer tax costs associated with the acquisition of Woodward L’Orange, and (viii) the transition impacts of the change in U.S. federal tax legislation in December 2017. The Company believes that these excluded items are short-term in nature, not directly related to the ongoing operations of the business and therefore, the exclusion of them illustrates more clearly how the underlying business of Woodward is performing. Management uses adjusted net earnings in evaluating the Company’s performance excluding these infrequent or unusual period expenses that are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s operating performance for the period. Management defines adjusted earnings per share as adjusted net earnings, as defined above, divided by the weighted-average number of diluted shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Management uses both adjusted net earnings and adjusted earnings per share when comparing operating performance to other periods which may not have similar infrequent or unusual charges.

Adjusted Industrial segment earnings is defined by the Company as Industrial segment earnings excluding the purchase accounting impacts related to, as applicable, the revaluation of the Woodward L’Orange inventory recognized in cost of goods sold, and the amortization of the Woodward L’Orange backlog intangible. The Company believes that these purchase accounting impacts are short-term in nature, not related to the ongoing operations of the Industrial segment business and therefore, the exclusion of them illustrates more clearly how the underlying business of Woodward’s Industrial segment is performing.

Management uses EBIT to evaluate Woodward’s performance without financing and tax related considerations, as these elements may not fluctuate with operating results. Management uses EBITDA in evaluating Woodward’s operating performance, making business decisions, including developing budgets, managing expenditures, forecasting future periods, and evaluating capital structure impacts of various strategic scenarios. Securities analysts, investors and others frequently use EBIT and EBITDA in their evaluation of companies, particularly those with significant property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets subject to amortization. The Company believes that EBIT and EBITDA are useful measures to the investor when measuring operating performance as they eliminate the impact of financing and tax expenses, which are non-operating expenses and may be driven by factors outside of our operations, such as changes in tax laws or regulations, and, in the case of EBITDA, the noncash charges associated with depreciation and amortization. Further, as interest from financing, income taxes, depreciation and amortization can vary dramatically between companies and between periods, management believes that the removal of these items can improve comparability.

Adjusted EBIT and adjusted EBITDA represent further non-U.S. GAAP adjustments to EBIT and EBITDA, in each case adjusted to exclude, as applicable, (i) restructuring charges, (ii) Duarte move related costs, (iii) the purchase accounting impacts related to the revaluation of the Woodward L’Orange inventory recognized in cost of goods sold and the amortization of the backlog intangible, (iv) the Woodward L’Orange acquisition transaction and integration costs, (v) cost associated with the Forward Option, (vi) warranty and indemnity insurance costs associated with the acquisition of Woodward L’Orange, and (vii) German real estate transfer tax costs associated with the acquisition of Woodward L’Orange. As these charges are infrequent or unusual charges that can be variable from period to period and may not fluctuate with operating results, management believes that by removing these charges from EBIT and EBITDA it improves comparability of past, present and future operating results and provides consistency when comparing EBIT and EBITDA between periods.

EBIT and adjusted EBIT for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018 were as follows:

The use of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As adjusted net earnings, adjusted net earnings per share, adjusted Industrial segment earnings, EBIT, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA exclude certain financial information compared with net earnings, the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, users of this financial information should consider the information that is excluded. Our calculations of adjusted net earnings, adjusted net earnings per share, adjusted Industrial segment earnings, EBIT, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Cash flow-based non-U.S. GAAP financial measures

Management uses free cash flow, which is defined by the Company as net cash flows provided by operating activities less payments for property, plant and equipment, in reviewing the financial performance of and cash generation by Woodward’s various business groups and evaluating cash levels. We believe free cash flow is a useful measure for investors because it portrays our ability to grow organically and generate cash from our businesses for purposes such as paying interest on our indebtedness, repaying maturing debt, funding business acquisitions, investing in research and development, purchasing our common stock, and paying dividends. In addition, securities analysts, investors, and others frequently use free cash flow in their evaluation of companies. The use of this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation of, or as substitutes for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Free cash flow does not necessarily represent funds available for discretionary use, and is not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs. Our calculation of free cash flow may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Free cash flow for the nine-months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018 were as follows:

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Note 1, Operations and summary of significant accounting policies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our most recent Form 10-K, describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Our critical accounting estimates, identified in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7 of our most recent Form 10-K, include the discussion of estimates used for revenue recognition, purchase accounting, inventory valuation, depreciation and amortization, reviews for impairment of goodwill, postretirement benefit obligations, and our provision for income taxes. Such accounting policies and estimates require significant judgments and assumptions to be used in the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q, and actual results could differ materially from the amounts reported.

Effective October 1, 2018, Woodward adopted the new revenue recognition guidance of ASC 606. For discussion of the impacts of the adoption of ASC 606 on our revenue recognition policy and related critical accounting estimates, see Note 3, Revenue, to the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Other than the changes to our revenue recognition policy and related critical accounting estimates, the critical accounting policies and estimates that were disclosed in our most recent Form 10-K have not materially changed since the date our most recent Form 10-K was filed with the SEC.

 

New Accounting Standards

From time to time, the FASB or other standards-setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update.

To understand the impact of recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted, please review the information provided in Note 2, New accounting standards and Note 3, Revenue, in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the future, is not expected to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2019, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC, that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues, or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources, that are material to investors.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

In the normal course of business, we have exposures to interest rate risk from our long-term and short-term debt and our postretirement benefit plans, and foreign currency exchange rate risk related to our foreign operations and foreign currency transactions. We are also exposed to various market risks that arise from transactions entered into in the normal course of business related to items such as the cost of raw materials and changes in inflation. Certain contractual relationships with customers and vendors mitigate risks from changes in raw material costs and foreign currency exchange rate changes that arise from normal purchasing and normal sales activities.

These market risks are discussed more fully in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in Part II, Item 7A of our most recent Form 10-K. These market risks have not materially changed since the date our most recent Form 10-K was filed with the SEC.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Principal Executive Officer (Thomas A. Gendron, Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President) and

67


Principal Financial and Accounting Officer (Robert F. Weber, Jr., Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Thomas A. Gendron and Robert F. Weber, Jr., 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, as amended, or the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on their evaluations, they concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2019 as a result of the material weakness described below.

Changes in Internal Controls

Other than the remediation initiatives described below and the inclusion of Woodward L’Orange internal controls as further described below, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In connection with management’s assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, management concluded a material weakness existed in the operating effectiveness of internal controls related to the adoption of and subsequent reporting under ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASC 606), which the Company adopted on October 1, 2018.

Background

In the third quarter of the Company’s fiscal year 2019, management identified immaterial accounting errors in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of October 1, 2018 related to the adoption of ASC 606 under the modified retrospective adoption method, as well as amounts subsequently reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the quarters ended December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019. As a result, Woodward made an immaterial out-of-period correction during the three-months ended June 30, 2019, as more fully described in Note 3, Revenue, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2019.

This error was the result of a deficiency in the Information and Communication and Control Activities components of internal control. Specifically, a control did not operate effectively at certain operational locations within one enterprise resource planning system, including a control activity over the completeness of the underlying information specific to deriving the revenue related accounting entries for the adoption and application of ASC 606. This deficiency was determined to be a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, as it resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the interim financial statements would not have been prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management’s Remediation Efforts

Management is actively engaged in the implementation of remediation efforts to address the material weakness. The remediation plan includes: (i) improving the design and implementation of our controls around the application of ASC 606, particularly those areas subject to interpretation or technical application, to include more detailed reviews of underlying data and calculations used to derive the revenue related accounting entries, (ii) enhancing communication between management at various operational locations to emphasize the importance of validation of underlying data and calculations used, and (iii) improving our monitoring of these activities. Management believes the measures described above and others that may be implemented will remediate the material weakness. As management continues to evaluate and improve internal control over financial reporting, we may decide to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify, or in appropriate circumstances not to complete, certain of the planned remediation measures. Subsequent testing of the operational effectiveness of any modified or new controls will be necessary to validate that the material weakness has been fully remediated.

Inclusion of Woodward L’Orange Internal Controls

Beginning with the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, we included the internal controls of Woodward L’Orange in our assessment of the effectiveness of Woodward’s internal controls over financial reporting. We acquired L’Orange on June 1, 2018 as discussed in Note 5, Business acquisition, in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Woodward L’Orange was excluded from Woodward’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 in accordance with the general guidance issued by the SEC regarding exclusion of certain acquired businesses. Woodward L’Orange will be included in the assessment of Woodward’s internal controls over financial reporting as of September 30, 2019.

Woodward is currently involved in claims, pending or threatened litigation or other legal proceedings, investigations and/or regulatory proceedings arising in the normal course of business, including, among others, those relating to product liability claims, employment matters, worker’s compensation claims, contractual disputes, product warranty claims and alleged violations of various laws and regulations. Woodward accrues for known individual matters using estimates of the most likely amount of loss where it believes that it is probable the matter will result in a loss when ultimately resolved and such loss is reasonably estimable.

While the outcome of pending claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and investigations cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that any liabilities that may result from these claims, proceedings and investigations will not have a material effect on Woodward's liquidity, financial condition, or results of operations.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

Investment in our securities involves risk. In addition to the risk factor identified below, an investor or potential investor should consider the risks summarized under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our most recent Form 10-K when making investment decisions regarding our securities. Except for the risk factor identified below, the risk factors that were disclosed in our most recent Form 10-K have not materially changed since the date our most recent Form 10-K was filed with the SEC.

Company Risks

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results, and current and potential stockholders may lose confidence in our financial reporting.

We are required by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to establish and maintain adequate internal controls over financial reporting that provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We are likewise required, on a quarterly basis, to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and to disclose any changes and material weaknesses in those internal controls.

In Part I, Item 4 of this Form 10-Q, we reported that a particular control deficiency constituted a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting. We have implemented controls and processes to ensure the financial information included in this Form 10-Q is complete and accurate, and we are in the process of remediating the control deficiency reported above.

Although we believe that these controls and processes have strengthened our internal controls over financial reporting and address the concern that gave rise to the material weakness reported in this Form 10-Q, we cannot be certain that our revised internal control practices will ensure that we maintain adequate internal controls over our financial reporting in future periods. Any failure to maintain such internal controls could adversely impact our ability to report our financial results on a timely and accurate basis. If our financial statements are not accurate, investors may not have a complete understanding of our operations. Likewise, if our financial statements are not filed on a timely basis as required by the SEC and NASDAQ, we could face severe consequences from those authorities. In either case, there could result a material adverse effect on our business. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock.

Under a trust established for the purposes of administering the Woodward Executive Benefit Plan, 2,295 shares of common stock were acquired in May 2019 on the open market related to the deferral of compensation by certain eligible members of Woodward’s management who irrevocably elected to invest some or all of their deferred compensation in Woodward common stock.
