Significant changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting new accounting standards are discussed below.

*Recent Accounting Standards Adopted*

 

None.

 

*Recent Accounting Standards Yet to Be Adopted*

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09*, Income Taxes (Topic 740)*: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. As of December 27, 2025, the Company is evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE). The new standard requires disclosure of specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. As of December 27, 2025, the Company is evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal Use Software. The new standard amends the existing standard that refers to various stages of a software development project to align better with current software development methods, such as agile programming. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. As of December 27, 2025, the Company is evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

**3. Revenue from Contracts with Customers**

*Disaggregation of Revenue*

The following table disaggregates total revenue by end market which is how we view our reportable segments (see Note 12):

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Three Months Ended** | **Three Months Ended** | **Nine Months Ended** | **Nine Months Ended** |
|  | **December 27, <br> 2025** | **December 28,<br> 2024** | **December 27, <br> 2025** | **December 28, <br> 2024** |

| Industrial | 259.1 | 251.2 | 787.0 | 763.1 |
| Total | $461.6 | $394.4 | $1352.9 | $1198.6 |

---

The following table disaggregates total revenue by geographic origin:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Three Months Ended** | **Three Months Ended** | **Nine Months Ended** | **Nine Months Ended** |
|  | **December 27, <br> 2025** | **December 28, <br> 2024** | **December 27, <br> 2025** | **December 28,<br> 2024** |
| United States | $413.3 | $348.9 | $1208.0 | $1061.4 |
| International | 48.3 | 45.5 | 144.9 | 137.2 |
| Total | $461.6 | $394.4 | $1352.9 | $1198.6 |

---

The following table illustrates the approximate percentage of revenue recognized for performance obligations satisfied over time versus the amount of revenue recognized for performance obligations satisfied at a point in time:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Three Months Ended** | **Three Months Ended** | **Nine Months Ended** | **Nine Months Ended** |
|  | **December 27, <br> 2025** | **December 28, <br> 2024** | **December 27,<br> 2025** | **December 28, <br> 2024** |
| Point-in-time | 95% | 97% | 95% | 97% |
| Over time | 5% | 3% | 5% | 3% |
| Total | 100% | 100% | 100% | 100% |

---

*Remaining Performance Obligations*

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of orders meeting the definition of a contract in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606 – *Revenue from Contracts with Customers*, for which work has not been performed or has been partially performed and excludes unexercised contract options. The duration of the majority of our contracts, as defined by ASC Topic 606, is less than one year. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient, which allows the Company to exclude remaining performance obligations with an original expected duration of one year or less. The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for such contracts with a duration of more than one year was approximately $1,097.2 at December 27, 2025. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 44% and 69% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 12 and 24 months, respectively, with the remainder recognized thereafter.

 

*Contract Balances*

The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections affect accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets. These assets and liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets on an individual contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

*Contract Assets (Unbilled Receivables)* - Pursuant to the over-time revenue recognition model, revenue may be recognized prior to the customer being invoiced. An unbilled receivable is recorded to reflect revenue that is recognized when (1) the cost-to-cost method is applied and (2) such revenue exceeds the amount invoiced to the customer.

As of December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, current contract assets were $21.1 and $6.6, respectively, and are included within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The increase in current contract assets was primarily due to current contract assets acquired as part of the VACCO acquisition and the recognition of revenue related to the satisfaction or partial satisfaction of performance obligations prior to billing partially offset by amounts billed to customers during the period. As of December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, the Company had noncurrent contract assets of $9.9 and $0.0, respectively, which were included within other noncurrent assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The increase in noncurrent contract assets was primarily due to the acquisition of VACCO.

*Contract Liabilities (Deferred Revenue)* - The Company may receive a customer advance or deposit, or have an unconditional right to receive a customer advance, prior to revenue being recognized. Since the performance obligations related to such advances may not have been satisfied, a contract liability is established. Advance payments are not considered a significant financing component as the timing of the transfer of the related goods or services is at the discretion of the customer.

As of December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, current contract liabilities were $58.0 and $32.7, respectively, and included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The increase in current contract liabilities was primarily due to current contract liabilities acquired as part of the VACCO acquisition and advance payments received partially offset by revenue recognized on customer contracts. For the three and nine months ended December 27, 2025, the Company recognized revenues of $16.3 and $30.3 that were included in the contract liability balance as of March 29, 2025. For the three and nine months ended December 28, 2024, the Company recognized revenues of $2.4 and $14.0 that were included in the contract liability balance at March 30, 2024.

As of December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, noncurrent contract liabilities were $88.2 and $12.1, respectively, and included within other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The increase in noncurrent contract liabilities was primarily due to the acquisition of VACCO and advance payments received.

*Variable Consideration*

The amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods and services is not generally subject to significant variations. However, the Company does offer certain customers rebates, prompt payment discounts, end-user discounts, the right to return eligible products, and/or other forms of variable consideration. The Company estimates this variable consideration using the expected value amount, which is based on historical experience. The Company includes estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The Company adjusts the estimate of revenue at the earlier of when the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. Accrued customer rebates were $49.4 and $40.0 at December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, respectively, and are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

**4. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income/(Loss)**

The components of comprehensive income/(loss) that relate to the Company are net income, foreign currency translation adjustments, changes in fair value of derivatives, and pension plan and postretirement benefits.

The following summarizes the activity within each component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss), net of taxes:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Currency <br> Translation** | **Change in <br> Fair Value<br> of Interest <br> Rate Swap** | **Change in <br> Fair Value <br> of Cross <br> Currency <br> Swap** | **Pension and<br> Postretirement<br> Liability** | **Total** |
| Balance at March 29, 2025 | $(6.5) | $(0.2) | $(0.2) | $5.5 | $(1.4) |
| Reclassification to net income |  | (0.2) |  |  | (0.2) |
| Change in pension and postretirement liability |  |  |  | 0.7 | 0.7 |
| Net gain on foreign currency translation | 14.2 |  |  |  | 14.2 |
| Gain on Interest Rate Swap, net of taxes |  | 0.5 |  |  | 0.5 |
| Loss on Cross Currency Swap, net of taxes |  |  | (6.6) |  | (6.6) |
| Net current period other comprehensive income/(loss) | 14.2 | 0.3 | (6.6) | 0.7 | 8.6 |
| Balance at December 27, 2025 | $7.7 | $0.1 | $(6.8) | $6.2 | $7.2 |

---

**5. Net income Per-share Attributable to Common Stockholders**

Basic net income per-share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding using the treasury stock method. Common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, the vesting of restricted shares, and contingently issuable shares related to performance-based awards.

We exclude outstanding stock options, stock awards and contingently issuable shares related to performance-based awards from the calculations if the effect would be anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended December 27, 2025, 21,322 employee stock options and no restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per-share attributable to common stockholders. For the nine months ended December 27, 2025, 62,267 employee stock options and no restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per-share attributable to common stockholders. The inclusion of these employee stock options would have been anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended December 28, 2024, 51,783 employee stock options and 130 restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per-share attributable to common stockholders. For the nine months ended December 28, 2024, 79,564 employee stock options and 12,605 restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. The inclusion of these employee stock options and restricted shares would have been anti-dilutive.

The table below reflects the calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding for each period presented as well as the computation of basic and diluted net income per-share attributable to common stockholders.

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Three Months Ended** | **Three Months Ended** | **Nine Months Ended** | **Nine Months Ended** |
|  | **December 27, <br> 2025** | **December 28, <br> 2024** | **December 27, <br> 2025** | **December 28, <br> 2024** |
| Net income | $67.4 | $57.9 | $195.9 | $173.5 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Preferred stock dividends |  | 1 |  | 12.4 |
| Net income attributable to common stockholders | $67.4 | $56.9 | $195.9 | $161.1 |
| Denominator for basic net income per share attributable to common stockholders — weighted-average shares outstanding | 31522574 | 31041126 | 31463546 | 29740170 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effect of dilution due to contingently issuable shares related to performance-based awards | 5864 |  | 6851 |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effect of dilution due to employee stock awards | 116154 | 181497 | 135937 | 213713 |
| Denominator for diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders — weighted-average shares outstanding | 31644592 | 31222623 | 31606334 | 29953883 |
| Basic net income per share attributable to common stockholders | $2.14 | $1.83 | $6.23 | $5.42 |
| Diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders | $2.13 | $1.82 | $6.20 | $5.38 |

---

**6. Fair Value**

Fair value is defined as the price that would be expected to be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

As a result of the occurrence of triggering events such as purchase accounting for acquisitions, the Company measures certain assets and liabilities based on Level 3 inputs.

 

*Financial Instruments*

The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses, short-term borrowings, long-term debt (see Note 10), and derivatives in the form of the Interest Rate Swap (as defined in Note 13) and the Cross Currency Swap (as defined in Note 13).

Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term borrowings are a reasonable estimate of their fair value. Long-term assets held on our balance sheets related to benefit plan obligations are measured at fair value.

The fair value of the Company's long-term fixed-rate debt, based on quoted market prices, was $493.1 and $470.5 at December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, respectively. The carrying value of this debt was $495.9 at December 27, 2025 and $495.1 at March 29, 2025. The fair value of long-term fixed-rate debt was measured using Level 1 inputs. Due to the nature of fair value calculations for variable-rate debt, the carrying value of the Company's long-term variable-rate debt is a reasonable estimate of its fair value.

The fair value of the Interest Rate Swap was a liability of $0.0 and $0.3 at December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, respectively, and was measured using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of the Interest Rate Swap was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Interest Rate Swap, net of taxes, had accumulated other comprehensive gain of $0.1 and loss of $0.2 as of December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, respectively, and was included in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, and in the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss).

The fair value of the Cross Currency Swap was a liability of $8.6 and $0.2 at December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, respectively, and was measured using Level 2 inputs. This amount is included in other noncurrent liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Cross Currency Swap, net of taxes, had accumulated other comprehensive loss of $6.8 and $0.2 as of December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, respectively, and was included in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, and in the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss). The decrease in the fair value of the Cross Currency Swap is primarily due to the weakening of the USD compared to the CHF during the nine month period ended December 27, 2025.

The Company does not believe it has significant concentrations of risk associated with the counterparties to its financial instruments.

**7. Inventory**

**10. Debt**

*Domestic Credit Facility*

In fiscal 2022, RBC Bearings Incorporated, our top holding company, and our Roller Bearing Company of America, Inc. subsidiary ("RBCA") entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("Wells Fargo"), as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer, and the other lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement provides the Company with (a) a $1,300.0 term loan (the "Term Loan"), which was used to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge Industrial, Inc. ("Dodge") and to pay related fees and expenses, and (b) a $500.0 revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility" and together with the Term Loan, the "Facilities").

Amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bear interest at either, at the Company's option, (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (i) Wells Fargo's prime lending rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (iii) Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement based on SOFR, the secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York) plus 1.00% or (b) Term SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% plus a margin ranging from 0.75% to a cap of 1.75% in the case of loans under the Revolving Credit Facility and 2.00% in the case of the Term Loan depending on the Company's consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from time to time. The Facilities are subject to a SOFR floor of 0.00%. As of December 27, 2025, the Company's margin was 1.00% for SOFR loans, the commitment fee rate was 0.175%, and the letter of credit fee rate was 1.00%.

The Term Loan matures in November 2026 and amortizes in quarterly installments with the balance payable on the maturity date. The Company can elect to prepay some or all of the outstanding balance from time to time without penalty, which will offset future quarterly amortization installments. Due to prepayments previously made, the required future principal payments on the Term Loan are $0 for fiscal 2026 and $288.0 for fiscal 2027.

Originally the Revolving Credit Facility was to expire in November 2026 but on October 28, 2025, the Credit Agreement was amended to, among other things, (i) extend the expiration date of the Revolving Credit Facility to October 2030, (ii) eliminate the minimum interest coverage ratio covenant from the Credit Agreement, and (iii) reduce the margin cap within the pricing grid on Term SOFR-based loans under the Revolving Credit Facility from 2.00% to 1.75%. All amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility will be payable on its expiration date.

In connection with the amendment, new debt issuance costs totaled $1.8. Additionally, $0.6 of previously unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the Revolving Credit Facility will now be associated with the new arrangement. The total of $2.4 debt issuance costs will be amortized through the new term of October 2030. The remaining portion of original debt issuance costs associated with the Term Loan of $1.6 will continue to amortize through the end of the Term Loan in November 2026.

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants, including a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined within the Credit Agreement) of 4.50:1.00 (provided that such maximum ratio may be increased by the Company to 0.50:1.00 for a period of 12 months after the consummation of a material acquisition (provided that there may be only one such increase in effect at any one time)). As of December 27, 2025 the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

The Credit Agreement allows the Company to, among other things, make distributions to stockholders, repurchase its stock, incur other debt or liens, or acquire or dispose of assets provided that the Company complies with certain requirements and limitations of the Credit Agreement.

The Company's domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the Company's obligations and the domestic subsidiaries' guaranty are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries.

As of December 27, 2025, $288.0 was outstanding under the Term Loan, $3.7 of the Revolving Credit Facility was being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure the Company's obligations relating to certain insurance programs, and $200.0 of the Revolving Credit Facility had been used to fund the purchase of VACCO which is discussed in Note 14. The Company had the ability to borrow an additional $296.3 under the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 27, 2025.

*Senior Notes*

In fiscal 2022, RBCA issued $500.0 aggregate principal amount of 4.375% Senior Notes due 2029 (the "Senior Notes"). The net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes were approximately $492.0, after deducting initial purchasers' discounts and commissions and offering expenses and were used to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge.

The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. This indenture contains covenants limiting the ability of the Company to (i) incur additional indebtedness or guarantee indebtedness, (ii) declare or pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions to stockholders, (iii) make investments, (iv) create liens or use assets as security in other transactions, (v) merge or consolidate, or sell, transfer, lease or dispose of substantially all of its assets, (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates, and (vii) sell or transfer certain assets. These covenants contain various exceptions, limitations, and qualifications. At any time that the Senior Notes are rated investment grade, certain of these covenants will be suspended.

The Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior unsecured basis by RBC Bearings and certain of RBCA's existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that also guarantee the Credit Agreement.

Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 4.375% and is payable semi–annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year.

The Senior Notes will mature on October 15, 2029. The Company may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at any time at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company sells certain of its assets or experiences specific kinds of changes in control, the Company must offer to repurchase the Senior Notes.

*Foreign Borrowing Arrangements*

One of our foreign subsidiaries, Schaublin SA, has a CHF 5.0 (approximately $6.2 USD) credit line (the "Foreign Credit Line") with Credit Suisse (Switzerland) Ltd. to provide future working capital, if necessary. As of December 27, 2025, $0.1 was being utilized to provide a bank guarantee. Fees associated with the Foreign Credit Line are nominal.

In July 2024, Swiss Tool Systems, one of our foreign subsidiaries, purchased the building where it operates for CHF 7.1 (approximately $8.4 USD) and took out a 10-year, 2.9% fixed-rate mortgage on the building for CHF 4.0 (approximately $4.5 USD).

The balances payable under all our borrowing facilities are as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **December 27,**<br> **2025** | **March 29,**<br> **2025** |
| Revolving and term loan facilities | $488.0 | $418.0 |
| Senior notes | 500.0 | 500.0 |
| Debt issuance costs | (7.7) | (8.3) |
| Other | 9.9 | 10.4 |
| Total debt | 990.2 | 920.1 |
| Less: current portion | 288.6 | 1.7 |
| Long-term debt | $701.6 | $918.4 |

**11. Income Taxes** 

The Company files income tax returns in numerous U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, with returns subject to examination for varying periods, but generally back to and including the year ending April 2, 2022, although certain tax credits generated in earlier years are open under statute from March 29, 2008. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years ending before April 2, 2022.

The effective income tax rates for the three-month periods ended December 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, were 24.6% and 22.5%, respectively. In addition to discrete items, the effective income tax rates for both these periods were different from the U.S. statutory rates due to the foreign-derived intangible income provision and U.S. credit for increasing research activities, which decreased the rate, and state income taxes, foreign income taxes, and nondeductible compensation, which increased the rate.

The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended December 27, 2025 of 24.6% included $0.5 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation offset by $2.0 of other items, including a $0.7 change to deferred taxes associated with new state tax filings and $1.1 from estimated liabilities and interest in those states for prior years. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three-month period ended December 27, 2025 would have been 22.9%. The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended December 28, 2024 of 22.5% included $0.8 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three-month period ended December 28, 2024 would have been 23.5%. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that some of its unrecognized tax positions may be effectively settled within the next 12 months due to the closing of audits and the statute of limitations expiring in various jurisdictions. The decrease in the Company's unrecognized tax positions, pertaining primarily to federal and state credits and state tax, is estimated to be approximately $1.3.

The effective income tax rate for the nine-month period ended December 27, 2025 was 24.8% compared to 22.5% for the nine-month period ended December 28, 2024. The effective income tax rate for the nine-month period ended December 27, 2025 of 24.8% included $4.5 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation offset by $7.0 of other discrete tax expenses, including a $2.3 change to deferred taxes related to the acquisition of VACCO, a $0.7 change to deferred taxes associated with new state filings and $1.1 from estimated liabilities and interest in those states for prior years. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the nine-month period ended December 27, 2025 would have been 23.8%. The effective income tax rate for the nine-month period ended December 28, 2024 of 22.5% included $2.5 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation partially offset by $0.1 of other discrete tax expenses. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the nine-month period ended December 28, 2024 would have been 23.6%.

 

*Global Minimum Tax*

In October 2021, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") announced an Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting including Pillar Two Model Rules defining the global minimum tax, which calls for the taxation of large multinational corporations at a minimum rate of 15%. Subsequently multiple sets of administrative guidance have been issued. Many non-US tax jurisdictions have either recently enacted legislation to adopt certain components of the Pillar Two Model Rules beginning in 2024 with the adoption of additional components in later years or announced their plans to enact legislation in future years. The Company has performed an assessment of the potential impact to its income taxes as a result of Pillar Two and believes that it can avail itself of the transitional safe harbor rules in all jurisdictions in which the Company operates. We will continue to monitor both the U.S. and international legislative developments related to Pillar Two to assess for any potential impacts. We are continuing to evaluate the impacts of enacted legislation and pending legislation to enact Pillar Two Model Rules in the non-US tax jurisdictions in which we operate.

*One Big Beautiful Bill Act*

On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted new legislation, Public Law No: 119-21, The One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("The Act"). The Act includes several U.S. corporate tax provisions, including restoring immediate deductibility of certain capital expenditures, restoring full expensing of domestic research and development costs, and changes in the computations of U.S. taxation on international earnings. As the Company continues to analyze the changes in tax law, we expect the provisions of the legislation to result in a favorable timing shift in our U.S. cash tax payments, with no material impact on our fiscal 2026 effective tax rate. We estimate the cash benefit resulting from the Act for fiscal year 2026 will be between $25.0 and $30.0.

**12. Reportable Segments**

The Company operates through two operating segments and reports its financial results based on how its chief operating decision maker makes operating decisions, assesses the performance of the business, and allocates resources. Our operating segments are our reportable segments. These reportable segments are Aerospace/Defense and Industrial and are described below.

***Aerospace/Defense.*** This segment represents the end markets for the Company's highly engineered bearings and precision components used in commercial aerospace, defense aerospace, defense marine, defense ground vehicles, missiles and guided munitions, and space and satellite applications. We supply precision products for many of the commercial aircraft currently operating worldwide and are the primary bearing supplier for many of the aircraft OEMs' product lines. Commercial and defense aerospace customers generally require precision products, often constructed of special materials and made to unique designs and specifications. Many of our aerospace bearings and engineered component products are designed and certified during the original development of the aircraft being served, which often makes us the primary bearing supplier for the life of that aircraft.

***Industrial.*** This segment represents the end markets for the Company's highly engineered bearings and precision components used in various industrial applications including: construction, mining, forestry, energy, agricultural and other machinery; aggregate and cement handling; food and beverage manufacturing; grain, and agricultural product handling; metals and mining material handling; chemicals, oil and gas production; warehousing and logistics; manufacturing automation and semiconductor equipment; power generation; waste and water management; rail and transportation. Our products target market applications in which our engineering and manufacturing capabilities provide us with a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is the President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM uses segment gross margin as the primary measurement of profitability. On a monthly basis, the CODM considers budget-to-actual variances and historical trends for gross margin when making decisions about allocating capital to segments.

Segment performance is evaluated based on segment net sales and gross margin. Where not separately disclosed, corporate costs are allocated to each segment. Identifiable assets by reportable segment consist of those directly identified with the segment's operations.

**13. Derivative Financial Instruments**

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations, including market risks relating to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. Changes in the fair values of derivatives are recorded each period in earnings or accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss), depending on whether a derivative is effective as part of a hedged transaction. Gains and losses on derivative instruments reported in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) are subsequently included in earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged item. The Company does not use derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

In fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a three-year U.S. dollar-denominated interest rate swap (the "Interest Rate Swap") with a third-party financial counterparty under the Credit Agreement (see Note 10). The Interest Rate Swap was executed to protect the Company from interest rate volatility on our variable-rate Term Loan. The Interest Rate Swap became effective December 30, 2022 and is comprised of a $600.0 notional with a maturity of three years. The notional was $100.0 as of December 27, 2025. We receive a variable rate based on one-month Term SOFR and pay a fixed rate of 4.455%. The notional on the Interest Rate Swap amortizes as follows:

Year 1: $600.0

Year 2: $400.0

Year 3: $100.0

The Interest Rate Swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge of the variability of the first unhedged interest payments (the hedged transactions) paid over the hedging relationship's specified time period of three years attributable to the borrowing's contractually specified interest index on the hedged principal of its general borrowing program or replacement or refinancing thereof. The fair value of the Interest Rate Swap has been disclosed in Note 6. The accumulated other comprehensive income derivative component balance, net of taxes, was a $0.1 gain and a $0.2 loss at December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, respectively. The gain/loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) into earnings will be recorded as interest income/expense on the Interest Rate Swap and will be included in the operating section of the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows. The Interest Rate Swap ended on December 30, 2025 as mentioned in Note 15.

On August 12, 2024, the Company entered into a three-year cross currency swap (the "Cross Currency Swap") with a third-party financial counterparty. The objective of the Cross Currency Swap is to economically hedge the Company's net investment in its lower-tier European subsidiary, Schaublin, against adverse changes in the Swiss franc/U.S. dollar exchange rate. The Cross Currency Swap is based upon a net investment of CHF 69.4 ($80.0 USD) notional amount with a three-year maturity date. RBC receives a fixed U.S. dollar amount on a month-to-month basis based upon a fixed annual rate of 2.77% of the notional amount. At maturity, RBC will net-settle the principal of the Cross Currency Swap in cash with the counterparty. The fair value of the Cross Currency Swap has been disclosed in Note 6. The accumulated other comprehensive income derivative component balance, net of taxes, was a $6.8 loss and $0.2 loss at December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, respectively. The decrease in the fair value of the Cross Currency Swap is primarily due to the weakening of the USD compared to the CHF during the nine month period ended December 27, 2025.

**14. VACCO Acquisition**

On July 18, 2025, the Company acquired the issued and outstanding capital stock of VACCO from ESCO Technologies Inc. for approximately $275.0, subject to certain adjustments (see Note 15). The purchase price was paid with cash, $200.0 of which was drawn from the Revolving Credit Facility, and the remaining $75.0 was paid from cash on hand. VACCO, which is based in South El Monte, California, is a manufacturer of valves, manifolds, regulators, filters and other precision components and subsystems for space and naval defense applications. This acquisition further broadened our extensive design, engineering and manufacturing capabilities, expanded our product portfolio, and added to our strong customer relationships. For federal income tax purposes, the Company made a Section 338(h)(10) election that will result in certain tax benefits in the future. The Company is still evaluating the tax benefits that will be recognized as a result of this election.

Acquisition costs incurred in the three- and nine- month periods ended December 27, 2025 totaled $0.4 and $1.4 and were recorded as period expenses and included within other, net within the consolidated statements of operations. The Company accounted for the transaction as a business combination for accounting purposes and VACCO is included within the aerospace/defense segment of the business. The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to change pending a final valuation of the assets and liabilities acquired, specifically the acquired intangible assets. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded based on their fair values at the date of acquisition as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **July 18,<br> 2025** |
| Accounts receivable | $11.2 |
| Current contract assets | 15.2 |
| Inventory | 64.0 |
| Prepaid expenses | 2.0 |
| Property, plant and equipment | 40.6 |
| Noncurrent contract assets | 2.5 |
| Goodwill | 111.2 |
| Other intangible assets | 123.1 |
| Other noncurrent assets | 0.7 |
| Accounts payable | (6.9) |
| Current contract liabilities | (38.9) |
| Accrued expenses | (14.9) |
| Non-current contract liabilities | (34.8) |
| Net assets acquired | $275.0 |

---

The goodwill associated with this acquisition is the result of expected synergies from combining operations of the acquired business with the Company's operations and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as an assembled workforce.

The fair value of the identifiable intangible assets of $123.1 was determined using the income approach and consists primarily of customer relationships, funded backlog, and a trade name. Specifically, a multi-period, excess earnings method was utilized for the customer relationships and funded backlog, and the relief-from-royalty method was utilized for the trade name. The fair value of these intangible assets is being amortized on a straight-line basis between four and 22 years.

**15. Subsequent Events**

On December 30, 2025, the Interest Rate Swap originally entered into during fiscal 2023 reached its maturity and is no longer effective.

Since December 27, 2025, the Company paid down $67.0 on the Term Loan, reducing the outstanding balance to $221.0.

On January 5, 2026, the purchase price for the issued and outstanding capital stock of VACCO was finalized, as a result of which the Company paid ESCO an additional $1.7. The final purchase price was $276.7.

**Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations**

All dollar amounts in this MD&A presentation are stated in millions except for per share amounts and backlog.

**Cautionary Statement as to Forward-Looking Information**

The objective of the discussion and analysis is to provide material information relevant to an assessment of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company including an evaluation of the amounts and certainty of cash flows from operations and from outside sources.

The words "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "intends," "may," "plans," "projects," "will," "would" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties is contained in our periodic filings with the SEC, including, without limitation, the risks identified under the heading "Risk Factors" set forth in our Annual Report. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, or investments we may make. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update or alter any forward-looking statement.

The following section is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information, including our financial statements and the notes thereto, that appears elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

**Overview**

We are a leading international manufacturer of highly engineered precision bearings, components and essential systems for the aerospace, defense, and industrial industries. Our precision solutions are integral to the manufacture and operation of most machines and mechanical systems, reduce wear to moving parts, facilitate proper power transmission, and reduce damage and energy loss caused by friction. While we manufacture products in all major bearing categories, we focus primarily on the higher end of the bearing market where we believe our value-added manufacturing and engineering capabilities enable us to differentiate ourselves from our competitors and enhance profitability. We believe our unique expertise has enabled us to garner leading positions in many of the product markets in which we primarily compete. With 62 facilities in 11 countries, of which 42 are manufacturing facilities, we have been able to significantly broaden our end markets, products, customer base, and geographic reach. We have a fiscal year consisting of 52 or 53 weeks, ending on the Saturday closest to March 31. Based on this policy, fiscal 2026 will have 52 weeks and fiscal 2025 had 52 weeks. Both the third quarter of fiscal 2026 and the third quarter of fiscal 2025 had 13 weeks.

We currently operate under two reportable business segments – Aerospace/Defense and Industrial:

●  ***Aerospace/Defense.*** This segment represents the end markets for the Company's highly engineered bearings and precision components used in commercial aerospace, defense aerospace, defense marine, defense ground vehicles, missiles and guided munitions, and space and satellite applications. We supply precision products for many of the commercial aircraft currently operating worldwide and are the primary bearing supplier for many of the aircraft OEMs' product lines. Commercial and defense aerospace customers generally require precision products, often constructed of special materials and made to unique designs and specifications. Many of our aerospace bearings and engineered component products are designed and certified during the original development of the aircraft being served, which often makes us the primary bearing supplier for the life of that aircraft.

 ****

●  ***Industrial.*** This segment represents the end markets for the Company's highly engineered bearings and precision components used in various industrial applications including: construction, mining, forestry, energy, agricultural and other machinery; aggregate and cement handling; food and beverage manufacturing; grain, and agricultural product handling; metals and mining material handling; chemicals, oil and gas production; warehousing and logistics; manufacturing automation and semiconductor equipment; power generation; waste and water management; rail and transportation. Our products target market applications in which our engineering and manufacturing capabilities provide us with a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

We use gross margin as the primary measurement to assess the financial performance of each reportable segment. End market and channel sales within our segments are based on internal definitions and metrics considered by management and are periodically reviewed and updated prospectively.

The markets for our products are cyclical, and we have endeavored to mitigate this cyclicality by entering into single and sole-source relationships and long-term purchase agreements, through diversification across multiple market segments within the Aerospace/Defense and Industrial segments, by increasing sales to the aftermarket, and by focusing on developing highly customized solutions.

Currently, our strategy is built around maintaining our role as a leading manufacturer of highly engineered bearings and precision components through the following efforts:

●  ***Developing innovative solutions*.** By leveraging our design and manufacturing expertise and our extensive customer relationships, we continue to develop new products for markets in which there are substantial growth opportunities.

●  ***Expanding customer base and penetrating end markets*.** We continually seek opportunities to access new customers, geographic locations and bearing platforms with existing products or profitable new product opportunities.

●  ***Increasing aftermarket sales.*** We believe that increasing our aftermarket sales of replacement parts will further enhance the continuity and predictability of our revenues and enhance our profitability. Such sales include sales to third party distributors, and sales to OEMs for replacement products and aftermarket services. We can further increase the percentage of our revenues derived from the replacement market by continuing to implement several initiatives.

 ****

●  ***Pursuing selective acquisitions.*** The acquisition of businesses that complement or expand our operations has been and continues to be an important element of our business strategy. We believe that there will continue to be consolidation within the industry that may present us with acquisition opportunities.

 ****

We have demonstrated expertise in acquiring and integrating bearing and precision engineered component manufacturers that have complementary products or distribution channels and have provided significant margin enhancement. We have consistently increased the profitability of acquired businesses through a process of methods and systems improvement coupled with the introduction of complementary and proprietary new products. Since 1992 we have completed 30 acquisitions, including VACCO, which we acquired on July 18, 2025. These acquisitions have broadened our end markets, products, customer base, and geographic reach.

**Outlook**

Our net sales for the three-month period ended December 27, 2025 increased 17.0% compared to the same period last fiscal year. The increase in net sales was a result of a 41.5% increase in our Aerospace/Defense segment and a 3.1% increase in our Industrial segment. $29.2 of sales included within this quarter came from VACCO. Our backlog as of December 27, 2025 was $2.1 billion, which included $0.5 billion of VACCO backlog, compared to $0.9 billion of total backlog as of March 29, 2025. Our backlog includes orders with specific conditions (such as the timing of delivery or the requirement to obtain funding approvals prior to commencing work) and/or that are cancellable at the customer's discretion. As of December 27, 2025, approximately $1.1 billion of our backlog is related to the marine business.

We continue to see the expansion of our commercial aerospace business, which experienced a 21.5% increase in net sales for the three-month period ended December 27, 2025, versus the same period last fiscal year. We anticipate this growth to continue through the rest of the current fiscal year and beyond. Orders have continued to grow as evidenced by the increase in our backlog. Defense sales, which represented approximately 40.6% of segment sales during the quarter, were up 86.2% year over year. We expect this growth to continue throughout the current fiscal year and beyond as we are adding capacity to fulfill the substantial number of defense orders in our backlog. Our industrial business continued to demonstrate strength in distribution across several major end markets, including food & beverage, warehousing, and aggregate & cement.

The Company expects net sales to be approximately $495.0 to $505.0 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $437.7 in the fourth quarter of the prior year, for a growth rate of 13.1% to 15.4%. Excluding net sales from VACCO, net sales are expected to grow 6.4% to 8.7% compared to the fourth quarter of the prior year.

We believe that operating cash flows and available credit under the Revolving Credit Facility will provide adequate resources to fund internal growth initiatives for the foreseeable future, including at least the next 12 months. As of December 27, 2025, we had cash of $107.6, of which approximately $32.6 was cash held by our foreign operations.

Net sales increased $59.3, or 41.5%, for the three months ended December 27, 2025 compared to the same period last fiscal year. Our commercial aerospace markets, which consisted of $100.7 of OEM net sales and $19.4 of distribution and aftermarket net sales, increased by 21.5% compared to fiscal 2025 when OEM net sales were $78.0 and distribution and aftermarket net sales were $20.9. The OEM markets have continued to improve as build rates have steadily increased over the last several months. Our defense markets, which consisted of $60.0 of OEM net sales and $22.4 of distribution and aftermarket net sales, increased by 86.2% compared to fiscal 2025 when OEM net sales were $32.5 and distribution and aftermarket net sales were $11.8. The increase in defense sales was driven by marine and missiles and reflects continued growth in demand which is evident by our growing backlog. The acquisition of VACCO also contributed to the sales growth.

Gross margin as a percentage of segment net sales was 40.1% for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 40.5% for the same period last fiscal year. Gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 was unfavorably impacted by a $4.2 purchase accounting adjustment related to the VACCO acquisition. The decrease in gross margin as a percentage of net sales was primarily driven by this, partially offset by efficiencies achieved at the plants in part due to increased sales volumes and favorable product mix. The effects of the purchase accounting are expected to cease during the first quarter of fiscal 2027. Including the impact of purchasing accounting, VACCO contributed $5.9 of gross margin in the third quarter of fiscal 2026.

 ****

Net sales increased $23.9, or 3.1%, for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 compared to the same period last fiscal year. We saw strength in many of our end markets, including aggregate & cement, food & beverage, forest products, and warehousing, partially offset by weakness in power generation and semicon. Industrial OEM sales were $235.1 and $237.2 for the nine month periods ended December 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively. Industrial sales to distribution and the aftermarket were $551.9 and $525.9 for the nine month periods ended December 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively.

Gross margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 was 47.3% of net sales, compared to 46.5% in the same period last fiscal year. Gross margin for the nine months ended December 27, 2025 was impacted by $2.9 in restructuring costs related to inventory rationalization efforts at one of our manufacturing plants. The increase in gross margin was driven by manufacturing efficiencies and product mix.

Corporate SG&A was $26.5, or 3.9% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $25.5, or 6.5% of net sales, for the same period last fiscal year. The quarter over quarter increase was primarily due to an increase in stock compensation costs, partially offset by a reduction in personnel costs.

Corporate SG&A increased $8.0 for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 compared to the same period last fiscal year due to increases in personnel costs and stock compensation costs, partially offset by a reduction in professional fees.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

Our capital requirements include manufacturing equipment and materials. We have historically fueled our growth, in part, through acquisitions. We have historically met our working capital, capital expenditure and acquisition funding needs through our net cash flows provided by operations, various debt arrangements and public sales of equity. We believe that operating cash flows and available credit under the Revolving Credit Facility (which expires in October 2030) will provide adequate resources to fund internal growth initiatives for at least the next 12 months.

Our ability to meet future working capital, capital expenditure and debt service requirements will depend on our future financial performance, which could be affected by a range of economic, competitive and business factors, many of which are outside of our control. These include interest rates, cyclical changes in our end markets, the imposition of trade tariffs, increased prices for steel and other supplies, and our ability to pass through tariffs and price increases on a timely basis. In addition, future acquisitions could have a significant impact on our liquidity position and our need for additional funds.

From time to time, we evaluate our existing facilities and operations and their strategic importance to us. If we determine that a given facility or operation does not have future strategic importance, we may sell, relocate, consolidate or otherwise dispose of that facility or operations. Although we believe our operations would not be materially impaired by such dispositions, relocations or consolidations, we could incur significant cash or non-cash charges in connection with them.

 ****

 **

***Liquidity***

 **

As of December 27, 2025, we had cash of $107.6, of which approximately $32.6 was cash held by our foreign operations. We expect that our undistributed foreign earnings will be re-invested indefinitely for working capital, internal growth, and acquisitions for and by our foreign subsidiaries, with the exception of our Canadian operations as there are no current plans to expand the sales operations within that jurisdiction. As discussed in further detail below, we also have the ability to borrow money from our existing credit facilities.

 ****

*Domestic Credit Facility*

The Credit Agreement, which was entered into in fiscal 2022 and amended in fiscal 2023 and again on October 28, 2025, provides the Company with (a) the $1,300.0 Term Loan, which was used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge and to pay related fees and expenses, and (b) the $500.0 Revolving Credit Facility.

Amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bear interest at either, at the Company's option, (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (i) Wells Fargo's prime lending rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (iii) Term SOFR plus 1.00% or (b) Term SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% plus a margin ranging from 0.75% to a cap of 1.75% in the case of loans under the Revolving Credit Facility and 2.00% in the case of the Term Loan, depending on the Company's consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA. The Facilities are subject to a SOFR floor of 0.00%. As of December 27, 2025, the Company's margin was 1.00% for SOFR loans, the commitment fee rate was 0.175%, and the letter of credit fee rate was 1.00%.

The Term Loan matures in November 2026 and amortizes in quarterly installments with the balance payable on the maturity date. The Company can elect to prepay some or all of the outstanding balance from time to time without penalty, which will offset future quarterly amortization installments. Due to prepayments previously made, the required future principal payments on the Term Loan are $0 for fiscal 2026, and $288.0 for fiscal 2027. The Revolving Credit Facility expires in October 2030, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility will be payable.

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants, including a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 4.50:1.00 (provided that, such maximum ratio may be increased by the Company to 0.50:1.00 for a period of 12 months after the consummation of a material acquisition (provided that there may be only one such increase in effect at any one time)).

The Credit Agreement allows the Company to, among other things, make distributions to stockholders, repurchase its stock, incur other debt or liens, or acquire or dispose of assets provided that the Company complies with certain requirements and limitations of the Credit Agreement.

The Company's domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the Company's obligations and the domestic subsidiaries' guaranty are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries.

As of December 27, 2025, $288.0 was outstanding under the Term Loan, $3.7 of the Revolving Credit Facility was being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure the Company's obligations relating to certain insurance programs, and $200.0 of the Revolving Credit Facility had been used to fund the purchase of VACCO. The Company had the ability to borrow an additional $296.3 under the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 27, 2025.

*Senior Notes*

In fiscal 2022, RBCA issued $500.0 aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes. The net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes were approximately $492.0, after deducting initial purchasers' discounts and commissions and offering expenses and were used to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge.

The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. This indenture contains covenants limiting the ability of the Company to (i) incur additional indebtedness or guarantee indebtedness, (ii) declare or pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions to stockholders, (iii) make investments, (iv) create liens or use assets as security in other transactions, (v) merge or consolidate, or sell, transfer, lease or dispose of substantially all of its assets, (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates, and (vii) sell or transfer certain assets. These covenants contain various exceptions, limitations and qualifications. At any time that the Senior Notes are rated investment grade, certain of these covenants will be suspended.

The Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior unsecured basis by RBC Bearings and certain of RBCA's existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that also guarantee the Credit Agreement.

Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 4.375% and is payable semi–annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year.

The Senior Notes will mature on October 15, 2029. The Company may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at any time at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company sells certain of its assets or experiences specific kinds of changes in control, the Company must offer to repurchase the Senior Notes.

*Foreign Borrowing Arrangements*

The Foreign Credit Line provides Schaublin SA with a CHF 5.0 (approximately $6.2 USD) credit line to provide future working capital, if necessary. As of December 27, 2025, $0.1 was being utilized to provide a bank guarantee. Fees associated with the Foreign Credit Line are nominal.

In July 2024, Swiss Tool Systems, one of our foreign subsidiaries, purchased the building where it operates for CHF 7.1 (approximately $8.4 USD) and took out a 10-year, 2.9% fixed-rate mortgage on the building for CHF 4.0 (approximately $4.5 USD).

*Interest Rate Swap*

 

Because the Company is exposed to market risks relating to fluctuations in interest rates, the Company maintained the Interest Rate Swap prior to its expiration on December 30, 2025. At this time we have not yet determined if we will enter into a new interest rate swap arrangement.

 

 

*Cross Currency Swap* 

 ****

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as some of our subsidiaries operate in various countries.

On August 12, 2024, the Company entered into the Cross Currency Swap with a third-party financial counterparty. The objective of the Cross Currency Swap is to economically hedge the Company's net investment in its lower-tier European subsidiary, Schaublin, against adverse changes in the Swiss franc/U.S. dollar exchange rate. The Cross Currency Swap is based upon a net investment of CHF 69.4 ($80.0 USD) notional amount with a three-year maturity date. RBC receives a fixed U.S. dollar amount on a month-to-month basis based upon a fixed annual rate of 2.77% of the notional amount. At maturity, RBC will net-settle the principal of the Cross Currency Swap in cash with the counterparty. The Cross Currency Swap has been designated as a net investment hedge on an after-tax basis.

 ****

*Preferred Stock*

 ****

Prior to October 15, 2024, the Company had outstanding 4,600,000 shares of MCPS to which we paid a quarterly dividend aggregating $5.75, but on that date each then-outstanding share of the MCPS converted into 0.4413 shares of common stock, resulting in the retirement of the MCPS and the issuance of 2,029,955 shares of common stock, and the Company ceased paying dividends on the MCPS.

***Cash Flows***

 

***Nine-month Period Ended December 27, 2025 Compared to the Nine-month Period Ended December 28, 2024***

The following table summarizes our cash flow activities:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Nine Months Ended** | **Nine Months Ended** | **Nine Months Ended** |
|  | **December 27,<br> 2025** | **December 28,<br> 2024** | **$ Change** |
| Net cash provided by/(used in): |  |  |  |
| Operating activities | $330.5 | $224.4 | $106.1 |
| Investing activities | (330.4) | (35.6) | (294.8) |
| Financing activities | 71.8 | (191.3) | 263.1 |
| Effect of exchange rate changes on cash | (1.1) | (0.4) | (0.7) |
| Increase/(decrease) in cash | $70.8 | $(2.9) | $73.7 |

---

During the first nine months of fiscal 2026, we generated cash of $330.5 from operating activities compared to $224.4 during the same period of fiscal 2025. The increase of $106.1 was the result of an increase in net income of $22.4, a favorable change in operating assets and liabilities of $43.1 and a favorable impact of non-cash activity of $40.6. The favorable change in operating assets and liabilities is detailed in the table below. The change in non-cash activity was driven by $3.0 more of stock-based compensation, $0.7 more of amortization of deferred financing costs, $4.0 more of restructuring costs, $5.5 more of depreciation and amortization, $0.7 more of amortization of operating leases, $0.5 of additional losses on the disposition of assets and a $26.2 increase in deferred taxes.

The following table summarizes the impact on cash flow from operating assets and liabilities for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 versus the third quarter of fiscal 2025.

| Other noncurrent liabilities | 37.1 | (1.6) | 38.7 |
| Total change in operating assets and liabilities: | $(9.2) | $(52.3) | $43.1 |

---

During the first nine months of fiscal 2026, we used $330.4 for investing activities as compared to $35.6 used in the first nine months of fiscal 2025. This increase in cash used was attributable to a $19.8 increase in capital expenditures and the VACCO acquisition of $275.0.

During the first nine months of fiscal 2026, cash provided by financing activity was $71.8 compared to $191.3 of cash used in financing activity in the first nine months of fiscal 2025. This increase in cash provided was primarily attributable to $160.0 of additional proceeds received from the Revolving Credit Facility. Additionally, we had $50.0 less of payments made on the Term Loan, $17.2 less of preferred stock dividends paid and $55.4 less of revolving credit facilities payments, partially offset by $1.8 more of financing fees paid, $8.3 less of exercises of stock-based awards, $4.6 more of repurchases of common stock, $0.2 more payments of finance lease obligations, $0.1 more repayments of notes payable and $4.5 less of proceeds received from mortgage.

 

***Capital Expenditures***

 

Our capital expenditures were $55.4 for the nine-month period ended December 27, 2025 compared to $35.6 for the nine-month period ended December 28, 2024. We expect capital expenditures for fiscal 2026 will be approximately 4.0% of our net sales for the fiscal year. We expect to fund these capital expenditures principally through existing cash and internally generated funds. We may also make substantial additional capital expenditures in connection with acquisitions.

***Obligations and Commitments***

 

The Company's fixed contractual obligations and commitments are primarily comprised of the Credit Agreement and the Senior Notes. We also have lease obligations that are materially consistent with what we disclosed in our Annual Report.

 

**Other Matters**

 

***Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates***

Preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We believe the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the consolidated financial statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management's estimates. There were no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the third quarter of fiscal 2026.

 

 

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

 

The Company has $3.7 of outstanding standby letters of credit, all of which are under the Revolving Credit Facility.

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk**

 

We are exposed to market risks that arise during the normal course of business from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

*Interest Rates*. We currently have variable rate debt outstanding under the Term Loan. We regularly evaluate the impact of interest rate changes on our net income and cash flow and take action to limit our exposure when appropriate. As discussed in Note 13 in Part I, Item I of this report, we utilized the Interest Rate Swap to fix a portion of the variable rate interest expense associated with the Term Loan. The Interest Rate Swap ended on December 30, 2025 as mentioned in Note 15.

*Foreign Currency Exchange Rates.* Our operations in the following countries utilize the following currencies as their functional currency:

● Australia – Australian dollar ● India – rupee

● Canada – Canadian dollar ● Mexico – peso

● China – Chinese yuan ● Poland – zloty

● France and Germany – euro ● Switzerland – Swiss franc

● England – British pound

As a result, we are exposed to risk associated with fluctuating currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and these currencies. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in earnings. Approximately 10% and 12% of our net sales were impacted by foreign currency fluctuations for the three- and nine-month periods ended December 27, 2025, respectively. Approximately 12% and 11% of our net sales were impacted by foreign currency fluctuations for the three- and nine-month periods ended December 28, 2024, respectively. For those countries outside the U.S. where we have sales, a strengthening in the U.S. dollar or devaluation in the local currency would reduce the value of our local inventory as presented in our consolidated financial statements. In addition, a stronger U.S. dollar or a weaker local currency would result in reduced net sales, operating profit and shareholders' equity due to the impact of foreign exchange translation on our consolidated financial statements. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may make our products more expensive for others to purchase or increase our operating costs, affecting our competitiveness and our profitability.

Changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies and volatile economic, political and market conditions in emerging market countries have in the past adversely affected our financial performance and may in the future adversely affect the value of our assets located outside the United States, our gross profit and our results of operations.

We periodically enter into derivative financial instruments in the form of forward exchange contracts to reduce the effect of fluctuations in exchange rates on certain third-party sales transactions denominated in non-functional currencies. As of December 27, 2025, the Company had a cross currency swap, which is discussed in further detail within Notes 6 and 13 in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures**

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) as of December 27, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of December 27, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were (1) designed to ensure that information relating to our Company required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and (2) effective, in that they provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

**Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

 

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

As discussed within Note 14 included within Part I, Item 1 of this report, we acquired VACCO on July 18, 2025. We are currently in the process of integrating the internal controls and procedures of VACCO into our internal controls over financial reporting. As provided under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we will include the internal controls and procedures of VACCO in our annual assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for our 2027 fiscal year.

**PART II - OTHER INFORMATION**

**Item 1. Legal Proceedings**

 

No legal proceeding became a reportable event during the quarter ended December 27, 2025 and there were no material developments during the quarter with respect to any legal proceedings previously disclosed.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors**

 

There have been no material changes to our risk factors and uncertainties since the filing of our Annual Report with the SEC on May 16, 2025. For a discussion of the risk factors, refer to Part I, Item 2, "Cautionary Statement as to Forward-Looking Information" contained in this quarterly report and Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors," contained in our Annual Report.

**Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds**
