Neal J. Keating, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our second quarter results reflect the resiliency of our business and the tremendous execution of our team given the challenges presented during the period. We recorded GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.00 in the quarter; however, when adjusted for the acquisition purchase accounting, restructuring and severance costs, and net costs associated with our transition services agreement we earned diluted earnings per share of $0.36, a 125% increase over the adjusted diluted earnings per share* of $0.16 earned in the second quarter of 2019. This was driven in large part by cost control efforts, strong gross margin performance in excess of 30%, and the pension benefit recorded during the period.

While sales for the quarter were impacted by the economic slowdown caused by COVID-19 across a number of our end markets, we continued to see strength in our defense markets which account for approximately 50% of our sales. We continue to see strong demand for our Joint Programmable Fuze program. During the quarter, we delivered more than 12,000 JPF's, bringing total year-to-date deliveries to more than 22,000 fuzes. We expect to deliver 45,000 to 50,000 fuzes during the year and currently have line of sight to more than $100 million in new U.S. Government and direct commercial sales orders.

We have re-designated our "Commercial Aerospace" sales as "Commercial, Business & General Aviation". This decision was made after careful consideration of the broad range of products we offer, the number of customers we serve, and the underlying trends impacting each of these markets. We saw a sales decline from the first quarter in our commercial, business and general aviation products of 24%, led in large part by a 36% decline for our commercial aviation markets, in line with our prior expectations, while general and business aviation was down significantly less at only 15%. The diversity of our product offerings and the broad range of platforms we support will benefit this portion of our business as we look to the second half of 2020. Sales for our medical products declined 30% from the first quarter, further than we had anticipated, and may remain challenged through the balance of the year. The resurgence of COVID-19 in parts of the U.S. has led to the continued deferral of elective procedures and pushed out the expected recovery in sales for these products. Finally, our industrial markets held up fairly well in the quarter and as we look ahead we see opportunities for improved performance in the back half of the year.

During the second quarter, we continued to experience operational inefficiency as we maintained our processes and procedures to ensure the safety of our employees and continuous production in our facilities. Despite the near term costs associated with these actions, I am happy to report that our employees have embraced these new steps and we are supporting each other as we adjust to the current environment. Our team continues to execute in this challenging environment, with a focus on the safety of our employees, the continued support of customers, and the security of our supply chain. Our portfolio of highly engineered solutions and the mix of our end markets provides balance in the face of the near term challenges, while positioning us for long-term growth."

Chief Financial Officer, Robert D. Starr, commented, "We enter the second half of 2020 with a very strong balance sheet, cash on hand of $236 million, significant capacity under our revolving credit facility, and no debt maturities until 2024. We reduced our cash usage in the quarter to $28 million and remain confident in our ability to generate positive cash flow for the full year. We enter the third quarter with ample liquidity and, when coupled with the strength of our business, we decided to repay $100 million of the $200 million we had outstanding on our revolving credit agreement in August.

We remain focused on mitigating the risk of COVID-19 and have incurred approximately $1.0 million in expenses during the second quarter supporting these efforts. In the first quarter we moved quickly to adjust our cost structure and during the second quarter we recorded approximately $2.7 million in additional restructuring and severance expense. These actions year-to-date are expected to generate $11.0 million in savings in 2020, or approximately $21.0 million annualized.

Additionally, we continued to execute on our G&A reduction efforts and through the end of the second quarter have taken actions that will lead to more than $10.0 million of annualized savings. We incurred $1.8 million of additional restructuring and severance expense associated with these actions and remain confident that we will achieve annualized savings exiting 2020 of approximately $20.0 million.

In total, including the benefit from reduced discretionary spending, the cost reduction efforts we have taken to-date will result in $22.0 million of savings in 2020, and represents an annualized run rate of approximately $50.0 million."

Non-GAAP Measures Disclosure

Management believes that the Non-GAAP financial measures (i.e. financial measures that are not computed in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) identified by an asterisk (*) used in this release or in other disclosures provide important perspectives into the Company's ongoing business performance. The Company does not intend for the information to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Other companies may define the measures differently. We define the Non-GAAP measures used in this release and other disclosures as follows:

Organic Sales - Organic Sales is defined as "Net Sales" less sales derived from acquisitions completed during the preceding twelve months. We believe that this measure provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of underlying operating results and trends of established, ongoing operations by excluding the effect of acquisitions, which can obscure underlying trends. We also believe that presenting Organic Sales enables a more direct comparison to other businesses and companies in similar industries. Management recognizes that the term "Organic Sales" may be interpreted differently by other companies and under different circumstances. No other adjustments were made during the three-month and six-month fiscal periods ended July 3, 2020 and June 28, 2019, respectively. The following table illustrates the calculation of Organic Sales using the GAAP measure, "Net Sales".

Adjusted Net Sales from continuing operations and Adjusted Operating Income from continuing operations - Adjusted Net Sales from continuing operations is defined as net sales from continuing operations, less items not indicative of normal sales, such as revenue recorded related to the settlement of claims. Adjusted Operating Income from continuing operations is defined as operating income from continuing operations, less items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company for the period presented. These items are included in the reconciliation below. Management uses Adjusted Net Sales from continuing operations and Adjusted Operating Income from continuing operations to evaluate performance period over period, to analyze underlying trends and to assess our performance relative to our competitors. We believe that this information is useful for investors and financial institutions seeking to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance. The following table illustrates the calculation of Adjusted Operating Income from continuing operations to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 10, 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations - Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is defined as earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, other expense (income), net, depreciation and amortization and certain items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company's for the period presented. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations differs from earnings from continuing operations, as calculated in accordance with GAAP, in that it excludes interest expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, other expense (income), net, non-service pension and post retirement benefit expense (income), and certain items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company for the period presented. We have made numerous investments in our business, such as acquisitions and capital expenditures, including facility improvements, new machinery and equipment, improvements to our information technology infrastructure and ERP systems, which we have adjusted for in Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations also does not give effect to cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not reflect funds available for distributions, reinvestments or other discretionary uses. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations provides an additional perspective on the operating results of the organization and its earnings capacity and helps improve the comparability of our results between periods because it provides a view of our operations that excludes items that management believes are not reflective of operating performance, such as items traditionally removed from net earnings in the calculation of EBITDA as well as Other expense (income), net and certain items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company for the period presented. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is not presented as an alternative measure of operating performance, as determined in accordance with GAAP. No other adjustments were made during the three-month or six-month fiscal periods ended July 3, 2020 and June 28, 2019. The following table illustrates the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations using GAAP measures:

Adjusted Earnings from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations - Adjusted Earnings from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations are defined as GAAP "Earnings from Continuing Operations" and "Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations", less items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the business for the periods presented.

Free Cash Flow from continuing operations - Free Cash Flow from continuing operations is defined as GAAP "Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities from continuing operations" in a period less "Expenditures for property, plant & equipment" in the same period. Management believes Free Cash Flow from continuing operations provides an important perspective on our ability to generate cash from our business operations and, as such, that it is an important financial measure for use in evaluating the Company's financial performance. Free Cash Flow from continuing operations should not be viewed as representing the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures such as dividends to shareholders or acquisitions, as it may exclude certain mandatory expenditures such as repayment of maturing debt and other contractual obligations. Management uses Free Cash Flow from continuing operations internally to assess overall liquidity. The following table illustrates the calculation of Free Cash Flow from continuing operations using "Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities from continuing operations" and "Expenditures for property, plant & equipment", GAAP measures from the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this release.

Free Cash Flow from continuing $ (88,992 ) $ (61,001 ) $ (27,991 )operations

Debt to Capitalization Ratio - Debt to Capitalization Ratio is calculated by dividing debt by capitalization. Debt is defined as GAAP "Current portion of long-term debt" plus "Long-term debt, excluding current portion". Capitalization is defined as Debt plus GAAP "Total shareholders' equity". Management believes that Debt to Capitalization Ratio is a measurement of financial leverage and provides an insight into the financial structure of the Company and its financial strength. The following table illustrates the calculation of Debt to Capitalization Ratio using GAAP measures from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included in this release.

Table 7. Debt to Capitalization Ratio (in thousands) (unaudited)

July 3, 2020 December 31, 2019

Long-term debt, excluding current portion $ 384,609 $ 181,622

Debt 384,609 181,622

Total shareholders' equity 803,396 823,202

Capitalization $ 1,188,005 $ 1,004,824

Debt to Capitalization Ratio 32.4 % 18.1 %

Please note that the Company held $235.6 million of "Cash and Cash Equivalents" on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of July 3, 2020. Netting this cash on hand against our debt would reduce the Debt to Capitalization Ratio to 15.6% as of July 3, 2020.
