LUXFER HOLDINGS PLC
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1.    Basis of Presentation and Responsibility for interim Financial Statements
We prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of Luxfer Holdings PLC and all wholly-owned, majority owned or otherwise controlled subsidiaries on the same basis as our annual audited financial statements, except for the adoption for Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, "current expected credit loss model". We condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual audited financial statements, which we prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).
Our quarterly financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. As used in this report, the terms "we," "us," "our," "Luxfer" and "the Company" mean Luxfer Holdings PLC and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates another meaning.
In the opinion of management, our financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for presentation of financial statements for interim periods in accordance with U.S. GAAP and with the instructions to Form 10-Q in Article 10 of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to our financial statements.
Our fiscal year ends on December 31. We report our interim quarterly periods on a 13-week quarter basis, ending on a Sunday. The Third Quarter 2020, ended on September 27, 2020, and the Third Quarter 2019, ended on September 29, 2019.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Financial Statements
In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the coronavirus ("COVID-19") a pandemic. The rapid spread of the pandemic and the continuously evolving responses to combat it have had an increasingly negative impact on the global economy. At this time, Luxfer is operating all of its facilities, following earlier temporary closures at a small number of locations. However, due to weaker demand resulting from uncertain economic conditions, potential supply constraints, and the continued spread of COVID-19, Luxfer has temporarily reduced capacity at certain facilities with partial furloughing of the workforce. We have also identified additional cost saving programs, including headcount reductions as a direct response to the impact of the pandemic. As the situation evolves and if warranted, the Company may suspend or reduce operations at additional facilities. In view of the rapidly changing business environment, unprecedented market volatility and heightened degree of uncertainty resulting from COVID-19, we are currently unable to fully determine its future impact on our business. However, we are monitoring the progression of the pandemic and its potential effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The Company recognized that the COVID-19 pandemic constituted a triggering event in accordance with ASC 350 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, during the First Quarter of 2020 and therefore performed an impairment assessment of its goodwill and other intangible assets. Based on the forecast at that time, we did not identify any impairments, nor marginal outcomes. A re-forecast was performed in July and October, which took into account the impact COVID-19 has had on our second and third quarter results. The re-forecast did not change our assessment of fair value, with no impairments nor marginal outcomes identified. Assumptions and judgments are required in calculating the fair value of the reporting units. In developing our discounted cash flow analysis, assumptions about future revenues and expenses, capital expenditures and changes in working capital are based on our annual operating plan and long-term business plan for each of our reporting units. These plans take into consideration numerous factors including historical experience, anticipated future economic conditions, changes in raw material prices and growth expectations for the industries and end markets we participate in. These assumptions and judgments may change as we learn more about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In relation to liquidity, the Company has access to a revolving credit facility (see Note 10) and has performed stress testing on financial covenants using current forecast information and has not identified any liquidity concerns.

Adoption of new accounting standards
Current expected credit loss ("CECL") model
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, financial instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of credit losses on Financial Instruments prospectively. The ASU replaces the incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss impairment model for financial instruments, including trade receivables.
Under the CECL model, the Company is required to consider whether expected credit losses should be recognized for trade receivables that are considered “current” (i.e., not past due).
When using historical loss rates in a provision matrix, the Company is required to consider whether and, if so, how the historical loss rates differ from what is currently expected over the life of the trade receivables (on the basis of current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future).
Upon adoption, there was no adjustment needed to opening retained earnings as at January 1, 2020.
As a result of implementing ASU 2016-13, the Company did not recognize any material additional allowance within Accounts and Other Receivables as at January 1, 2020. Accounts and Other Receivables are shown net of a $0.6 million allowance at September 27, 2020.
The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of products. The Company’s expected loss allowance methodology for accounts receivable is developed using historical collection experience, current and future economic and market conditions and a review of the current status of customers' trade accounts receivables. Due to the short-term nature of such receivables, the estimate of accounts receivable amounts that may not be collected is based on aging of the accounts receivable balances and the financial condition of customers. Additionally, specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. The Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and determined that the estimate of credit losses was not significantly impacted.
Estimates are used to determine the allowance. It is based on assessment of anticipated receipts and all other historical, current and future information that is reasonably available.
The following table provides a roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected.

3.    Net Sales (continued)
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time as work progresses or at a point in time. Design and tooling arrangements are the only contracts for which sales are recognized over time. Sales from these sources combined accounted for less than 1% of the Company’s sales for the quarters and year-to-date ended September 27, 2020, and September 29, 2019. All consideration from contracts with customers is included in these amounts.
The following table provides information about contract receivables, contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers:

4.    Restructuring
During the Third Quarter of 2020 we continued execution of certain business restructuring initiatives aimed at reducing our fixed cost structure and realigning our business. The $4.3 million restructuring charge in the Third Quarter of 2020 was predominantly ($3.3 million) the result of further costs associated with the announced closure of Luxfer Gas Cylinders France, including one-time employee benefit costs, and associated legal and professional fees. There was an additional $1.0 million of one-time employee benefit expense resulting from actions to reduce our fixed cost-base in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

5.    Acquisition and disposal related gains / (costs)
Acquisition-related costs of $0.2 million were incurred during the First Quarter of 2020 and represents amounts incurred in relation to M&A exploration activities net of a $0.1 million release of deferred contingent consideration.

In July 2020 we sold our 51% investment in Luxfer Uttam India Private Limited to our joint venture partner resulting in a gain on sale of less than $0.1 million.

The net $1.7 million charge for the first nine-months of 2019 was in relation to a $2.9 million gain in the Second Quarter of 2019 related to the sale of Magnesium Elektron CZ s.r.o. This gain was offset by a $4.6 million charge in the First Quarter of 2019 in relation to reimbursement of costs following the terminated Neo acquisition.
6.    Other income
Other income of $2.3 million for the Third Quarter of 2020 represents payments received from a European automotive customer for compensation in relation to a contribution of loss and product volumes relating to our Gas Cylinders segment.

7.    Other charges
Other charges of $2.7 million incurred in the Third Quarter of 2019 were the result of the Company's decision to commence a project to remove low-level naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) from a redundant building at its Manchester, UK site. The work represents remediation of a legacy environmental issue and is
expected to complete in the first quarter of 2021 but with no significant further costs envisaged.

11.    Income Taxes
We manage our affairs so that we are centrally managed and controlled in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) and therefore have our tax residency in the U.K. The provision for income taxes consists of provisions for the U.K. and international income taxes. We operate in an international environment with operations in various locations outside the U.K. Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting the earnings in the various locations and the applicable rates.
The effective income tax rate for the 39-week period ended September 27, 2020, was 30.1%, compared to 42.7% for the 39-week period ended September 29, 2019. The 2020 tax rate has been affected by the reduction in the Canadian tax rate which is applied to deferred tax assets. However, there is no material change to our cash tax rate as a result of these items. The 2019 rate was affected by the impact of non-deductible expenses related to the aborted acquisition of Neo Performance Materials and restructuring activities. The tax rate in any quarter can be affected positively or negatively by adjustments that are required to be reported in the specific quarter of resolution.

Total share-based compensation expense for the three-quarters ended September 27, 2020, and September 29, 2019, was as follows:

In March 2020, we issued our annual share-based compensation grants under the Luxfer Holdings PLC Long-Term Umbrella Incentive Plan. The total number of awards issued was approximately 130,000 and the weighted average fair value of options granted in 2020 was estimated to be $11.30 per share.
In May 2020, we issued additional share-based compensation grants under the Luxfer Holdings PLC Long-Term Umbrella Incentive Plan. The total number of awards issued was 2,000 and the weighted average fair value of options granted in 2020 was estimated to be $13.13 per share.
In June 2020, we issued our annual share-based compensation grants under the Luxfer Holdings PLC Non-Executive Directors' Equity Incentive Plan. The total number of awards issued was 27,280 and the weighted-average fair value of options granted was estimated to be $13.38 per share.
In September 2020, we issued additional share-based compensation grants under the Luxfer Holdings PLC Long-Term Umbrella Incentive Plan. The total number of awards issued was approximately 4,000 and the weighted average fair value of options granted was estimated to be $11.84 per share.
The following table illustrates the assumptions used in deriving the fair value of share options granted during 2020 and the year-ended December 31, 2019:

The expected life of the share options is based on historical data and current expectations, and is not necessarily indicative of exercise patterns that may occur. The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility over a period similar to the life of the options is indicative of future trends, which may not necessarily be the actual outcome.

14.    Segmental Information
We classify our operations into two core business segments, Gas Cylinders and Elektron, based primarily on shared economic characteristics for the nature of the products and services; the nature of the production processes; the type or class of customer for their products and services; the methods used to distribute their products or provide their services; and the nature of the regulatory environment. The Company has five identified business units, which aggregate into the two reportable segments. Luxfer Gas Cylinders and Luxfer Superform aggregate into the Gas Cylinders segment, and Luxfer MEL Technologies, Luxfer Magtech and Luxfer Graphic Arts aggregate into the Elektron segment. In the first two quarters of 2019, prior to its divestiture, Luxfer Czech Republic also aggregated into the Elektron Segment. A summary of the operations of the segments is provided below:
Gas Cylinders segment
Our Gas Cylinders segment manufactures and markets specialized products using aluminum, titanium and carbon composites, including pressurized cylinders for use in various applications including self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) for firefighters, containment of oxygen and other medical gases for healthcare, alternative fuel vehicles, and general industrial. The segment also forms lightweight aluminum and titanium panels into highly complex shapes that are used mainly in the transportation industry.
Elektron segment                                                Our Elektron segment focuses on specialty materials based primarily on magnesium and zirconium, with key product lines including advanced lightweight magnesium alloys with a variety of uses across a variety of industries; magnesium powders for use in countermeasure flares, as well as heater meals; photoengraving plates for graphic arts; and high-performance zirconium-based materials and oxides used as catalysts and in the manufacture of advanced ceramics, fiber-optic fuel cells, and many other performance products.
Other
Other primarily represents unallocated corporate expense and includes non-service related defined benefit pension cost / credit.
Management monitors the operating results of its reportable segments separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated by the chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments as the CEO, using adjusted EBITA1 and adjusted EBITDA, which we define as segment income and are based on operating income adjusted for share based compensation charges; loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment; restructuring charges; impairment charges; acquisition and disposal related gains and costs; other charges; depreciation and amortization; and unwind of discount on deferred consideration.
1 Adjusted EBITA is adjusted EBITDA less depreciation

Unallocated assets and liabilities include those which are held on behalf of the Company and cannot be allocated to a segment, such as taxation, investments, cash, retirement benefits obligations, bank and other loans and holding company assets and liabilities.
Financial information by reportable segment for the Third Quarter and year-to-date ended September 27, 2020, and September 29, 2019, is included in the following summary:

15.     Commitments and Contingencies
Committed and uncommitted banking facilities
The Company had committed banking facilities of $150.0 million at September 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Of these committed facilities, nothing was drawn at September 27, 2020, and $17.5 million at December 31, 2019.

The Company had a separate (uncommitted) facility for letters of credit which at September 27, 2020, was £1.0 million ($1.3 million) and December 31, 2019, was £1.0 million ($1.3 million). None of these were utilized at September 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019 respectively.

The Company also has two separate (uncommitted) bonding facilities for bank guarantees; one denominated in GBP sterling of £4.5 million (2020: $5.7 million, 2019: $5.9 million), and one denominated in USD of $1.5 million (2019: $0.4 million). Of that denominated in GBP, £1.2 million ( $1.5 million) and £1.6 million ($2.3 million) was utilized at September 27, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively. Of that dominated in USD, $0.8 million was utilized in September 27, 2020 and was fully utilized at December 31, 2019.

The Company also has a $4.0 million (December 31, 2019: nil) separate overdraft facility of which none was drawn at September 27, 2020.

Capital commitments

At September 27, 2020, the Company had capital expenditure commitments of $0.8 million for the acquisition of new plant and equipment.

Inventory commitments

None
Contingencies
During February 2014, a cylinder was sold to a long-term customer and ruptured at one of their gas facilities. As a result of this rupture, three people were noted to have minor injuries such as loss of hearing. There was no major damage to assets of the customer. A claim was launched by the three people who were injured in the incident. We have reviewed our quality control checks from around the time which the cylinder was produced and no instances of failures have been noted. It has also been noted by the investigator that the customer has poor quality and safety checks. As a result, we do not believe that we are liable for the incident, and therefore, do not currently expect this case to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

About Luxfer
Luxfer is a global manufacturer of highly-engineered industrial materials, which focuses on value creation by using its broad array of technical know-how and proprietary technologies. Luxfer's high-performance materials, components, and high-pressure gas containment devices are used in defense and emergency response, healthcare, transportation, and general industrial applications. For more information, visit www.luxfer.com.
Key trends and uncertainties regarding our existing business
Impact of COVID-19 on operations
Luxfer’s top priority during this global pandemic is the health and well-being of our employees, customers, shareholders, and the communities in which we operate. The Company continues to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely, while simultaneously executing business continuity plans. These business continuity plans include, but are not limited to, (i) retooling operations to maintain social distance and maximize employee safety; (ii) increasing resources and efforts to satisfy demand from the most impactful parts of our business; (iii) expanding flexible work arrangements and policies, where practical, to maximize employee safety; (iv) increased monitoring of short-term cash flow, including measures to reduce costs and generate cash; and (v) providing regular updates to our shareholders, employees, customers, and suppliers in a transparent and timely manner.

At this time, Luxfer continues to operate all of its facilities, following temporary closures at a small number of locations earlier in the year. However, due to weaker demand resulting from uncertain economic conditions, potential supply constraints, and the continued spread of COVID-19, Luxfer has temporarily reduced capacity at certain facilities and has implemented additional cost saving programs, including headcount reductions as a direct response to the impact of the pandemic. As the situation evolves and if warranted, the Company may suspend or reduce operations at additional facilities.

Luxfer’s third quarter results continue to reflect the global macro environment resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, including broad-based market weakness, which is especially evident in our industrial and transportation end-markets. Our industrial and transportation end-markets have declined 19.4% and 19.3%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2020 and 18.3% and 26.7%, respectively, in the first nine months, relative to the same period in the prior year. However, the Company has a strong balance sheet and access to an existing $150 million credit facility, which was not drawn on at the end of the third quarter following strong cash generation in the quarter. Furthermore, as our net debt to EBITDA ratio has fallen to 1.1x at the end of the third quarter (from 1.5x at the end of the second quarter), we have identified no issues in relation to financial covenants nor availability of funding for continued operations. We continue to learn more about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and these assumptions and judgments may change over time.

Operating objectives and trends
In 2020, we expect the following operating objectives and trends to impact our business:
Proactive response to COVID-19 pandemic, including the health and well-being actions highlighted above, in addition to initiatives to stimulate demand for products, ensure continuity of supply and action focused cost saving programs;
Productivity acceleration and growth recovery as we progress towards a lean manufacturing process and increase focus on faster innovation;
Leveraging delivered plant consolidation projects in our Gas Cylinders and Graphic Arts businesses to further reduce fixed costs and safeguard competitiveness;
Continued focus on developing global talent and implementing a high-performance culture; and
Improved operating cash generation with lower restructuring activity and stronger working capital performance.

Net sales
The 15.6% and 17.5% decrease in consolidated net sales in the third quarter and first nine months, respectively, of 2020 from 2019 was heavily influenced by the economic downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, with the adverse impact most pronounced across the industrial and transportation end markets, including:
Decreased sales of magnesium aerospace alloys, zirconium catalysis materials and SoluMag® alloy in our Elektron Division;
Decreased sales of photo-engraving plates in our Elektron Division;
Lower Superform tooling and formed part sales, predominantly to European luxury automotive customers impacted by temporary facility shutdowns earlier in the year; and
Decreased sales of aluminum cylinders for industrial use and lower sales of SCBA composite cylinders.
These decreases were partially offset by growth in sales in the third quarter of chemical response kits and heater meals in our Elektron Division.
Alternative Fuels cylinder sales in the Gas Cylinders Division returned to growth relative to the prior year.

Gross profit
The 3.3 and 3.4 percentage point decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales in the third quarter and first nine months, respectively of 2020 from 2019 was primarily the result of adverse product sales mix.
These adverse factors were partially offset by the impact of productivity improvements in Luxfer Gas Cylinders Europe, following closure of the French operation in 2019 and transfer of production to the U.K. and U.S.A.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A")
The 0.2 percentage point increase in SG&A costs as a percentage of sales in the third quarter of 2020 from 2019 was primarily the result of the COVID led fall in revenue not being fully matched by cost reductions.
SG&A as a percentage of sales was relatively unchanged in the first nine-months of 2020 from 2019.

Research and development costs
Research and development costs as a percentage of sales reduced by 0.3 and 0.4 percentage points in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 relative to 2019 respectively as a result of project delays resulting from COVID.

Restructuring charges
The $4.3 million and $7.9 million restructuring charge in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 was predominantly ($3.3 million and $6.5 million respectively) the result of further costs associated with the announced closure of Luxfer Gas Cylinders France, including one-time employee benefits and associated legal and professional fees. In addition we have incurred one-time employee benefit expense in relation to COVID-led cost saving programs largely affecting our Elektron Division, of $1.0 million and $1.2 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 respectively.
The $2.6 million restructuring charge in the third quarter of 2019 was driven by $2.1 million of further costs associated with the announced closure of Luxfer Gas Cylinders France, including one-time employee benefits, ongoing site costs and legal and professional fees. In addition, restructuring charges include $0.5 million related to one-time employee benefits across sites in North America and the U.K in the Elektron and Gas Cylinders segment.
The $24.3 million restructuring charge in the first nine-months of 2019 includes $18.7 million in relation to the closure of Luxfer Gas Cylinders France; $4.6 million related to asset write-downs and one-time employee benefits following the decision to scale down production at one of our Luxfer Magtech sites; and $1.0 million of
other simplification costs.

Impairment charges
The impairment credit of $0.2 million in the first nine months of 2019 reflects a fair value adjustment to the held-for-sale assets in the Elektron segment.
24

Acquisition and disposal related costs
Net costs of $0.2 million incurred in the first nine months of 2020 include amounts incurred in relation to M&A exploration activities net of a $0.1 million release of deferred contingent consideration.

In July 2020 we sold our 51% investment in Luxfer Uttam India Private Limited to the JV partner. Allowing for legal costs we generated a profit on disposal of less than $0.1 million.

Acquisition and disposal related costs in 2019 of $1.7 million relate to a $3.5 million reimbursement payment and $1.1 million of professional and legal fees incurred in connection with the terminated acquisition of Neo Performance Materials, occurring in the first quarter; offset in the second quarter by a $2.9 million gain on disposal of Elektron's magnesium recycling business in the Czech Republic.

Other income
Other income of $2.3 million for the Third Quarter of 2020 represents payments received from a European automotive customer for compensation in relation to contribution of loss and product volumes relating to our Gas Cylinders segment. This item has been included in adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share as the compensation relates to a current customer and an existing line of business.

Other charges
Other charges of $2.7 million incurred in the Third Quarter of 2019 were the result of the Company's decision to commence a project to remove low-level naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) from a redundant building at its Manchester, UK site. The work represents remediation of a legacy environmental issue and as such has been excluded from adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share. It is expected to complete in the first quarter of 2021 but with no significant further costs envisaged.

Net interest expense
Net interest expense in 2020 from 2019 decreased by $0.1 million in the quarter and was flat in the first nine months of the year.

Defined benefit pension credit
The $0.5 million and $1.6 million increase in defined benefit pension credit to $1.1 million and $3.3 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 from $0.6 million and $1.7 million in 2019 is primarily due to the combined effect on the U.K. plan of a reduction in the discount rate and lower inflation, partially offset by lower projected asset returns.
Provision for income taxes
The movement in the statutory effective tax rate from 46.1% in 2019, to 30.1% in 2020, was primarily due to non-deductible restructuring activities in 2020 and 2019 and non-deductible expenses related to the aborted acquisition in the prior year. When stripping out the effect of these expenses, the adjusted effective tax rate has increased to 23.1% in 2020 from 19.0% in 2019 largely as a result of tax rate changes affecting the valuation of net operating loss deferred tax assets.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES TO GAAP MEASURES
The following table of non-GAAP summary financial data presents a reconciliation of net income to adjusted net income for the periods presented, being the most comparable GAAP measure. Management believes that adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted EBITA and adjusted EBITDA are key performance indicators (KPIs) used by the investment community and that such presentation will enhance an investor’s understanding of the Company's operational results. In addition, Luxfer's CEO and other senior management use these KPIs, among others, to evaluate business performance. However, investors should not consider adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share in isolation as an alternative to net income and earnings per share when evaluating Luxfer's operating performance or measuring Luxfer's profitability.

SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The summary that follows provides a discussion of the results of operations of each of our two reportable segments (Gas Cylinders and Elektron). Both segments comprise various product offerings that serve multiple end markets.
Adjusted EBITDA represents operating income adjusted for share based compensation charges; loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment; restructuring charges; impairment charges; acquisition and disposal related gains and costs; other charges; depreciation and amortization; and unwind of discount on deferred consideration. A reconciliation to net income and taxes can be found in Note 14 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

GAS CYLINDERS
The net sales and adjusted EBITDA for Gas Cylinders were as follows:

Net sales
The 17.0% and 13.3% decrease in Gas Cylinders sales in the third quarter and first nine months, respectively, of 2020 from 2019 was primarily the result of COVID-19 related disruption marked by temporary customer shutdowns, including:
Decreased sales of Superform tooling and formed parts;
Decreased sales of composite and aluminum cylinders; and
Decreased sales of SCBA composite cylinders.
Alternative Fuels cylinder sales have returned to growth in the third quarter relative to the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA
The 5.3 percentage point increase in adjusted EBITDA for Gas Cylinders as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter of 2020 from 2019 was primarily the result of:
Received compensation in relation to a contribution of loss and product volumes from an automotive customer; and
Productivity improvements and cost savings.
This was partially offset by adverse product mix.
Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales was relatively flat (0.4 percentage point increase) in the first nine months relative to the prior year.

Net sales
The 14.2% and 21.7% decrease in Elektron sales in the third quarter and first nine months, respectively, of 2020 from 2019 was primarily the result of COVID-19 related disruption to the industrial and transportation end markets, especially:
Decreased sales of zirconium-based industrial catalysts;
Decreased sales of automotive catalysts in the first nine months;
Lower sales of SoluMag® alloy and magnesium aerospace alloys; and
Lower sales of photo-engraving plates.

Adjusted EBITDA
The 5.2 and 4.3 percentage point decrease in adjusted EBITDA for Elektron as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter and first nine-months, respectively of 2020 from 2019 was primarily the result of the impact of COVID-19 related reduction in volumes more than offsetting associated cost saving measures. This was further impacted by adverse product sales mix.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our liquidity requirements arise primarily from obligations under our indebtedness, capital expenditures, acquisitions, the funding of working capital and the funding of hedging facilities to manage foreign exchange and commodity purchase price risks. We meet these requirements primarily through cash flows from operating activities, cash deposits and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and accompanying ancillary hedging facilities and the Loan Notes due, 2021, 2023 and 2026. Our principal liquidity needs are:
funding acquisitions, including deferred contingent consideration payments;
capital expenditure requirements;
payment of shareholder dividends;
servicing interest on the Loan Notes, which is payable at each quarter end, in addition to interest and / or commitment fees on the Senior Facilities Agreement;
working capital requirements, particularly in the short term as we aim to achieve organic sales growth; and
hedging facilities used to manage our foreign exchange and aluminum purchase price risks.
From time to time, we consider acquisitions or investments in other businesses that we believe would be appropriate additions to our business.
We believe that, in the long term, cash generated from our operations will be adequate to meet our anticipated requirements for working capital, capital expenditures and interest payments on our indebtedness. In the short term, we believe we have sufficient credit facilities to cover any variation in our cash flow generation. However, any major repayments of indebtedness will be dependent on our ability to raise alternative financing or to realize substantial returns from operational sales. Also, our ability to expand operations through sales development and capital expenditures could be constrained by the availability of liquidity, which, in turn, could impact the profitability of our operations.
28

We have been in compliance with the covenants under the Loan Notes and the Senior Facilities Agreement throughout all of the quarterly measurement dates from and including September 30, 2011 to September 27, 2020.
Luxfer conducts all of its operations through its subsidiaries, joint ventures and affiliates. Accordingly, Luxfer's main cash source is dividends from its subsidiaries. The ability of each subsidiary to make distributions depends on the funds that a subsidiary receives from its operations in excess of the funds necessary for its operations, obligations or other business plans. We have not historically experienced any material impediment to these distributions, and we do not expect any local legal or regulatory regimes to have any impact on our ability to meet our liquidity requirements in the future. In addition, since our subsidiaries are wholly-owned, our claims will generally rank junior to all other obligations of the subsidiaries. If our operating subsidiaries are unable to make distributions, our growth may slow, unless we are able to obtain additional debt or equity financing. In the event of a subsidiary's liquidation, there may not be assets sufficient for us to recoup our investment in the subsidiary.
Our ability to maintain or increase the generation of cash from our operations in the future will depend significantly on the competitiveness of and demand for our products, including our success in launching new products. Achieving such success is a key objective of our business strategy. Due to commercial, competitive and external economic factors, however, we cannot guarantee that we will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future working capital will be available in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness or make necessary capital expenditures.
Cash Flows
Operating activities
Cash provided by operating activities was $36.7 million for the year-to-date in 2020. It was primarily related to net income from operating activities, net of the following non-cash items: depreciation and amortization, pension contributions and net changes to assets and liabilities.
Cash used in operating activities was $13.6 million in the first nine months of 2019. It was primarily related to net loss from operating activities, net of the following non-cash items: depreciation and amortization; asset impairment charges, pension contributions and net changes to assets and liabilities.
Investing activities
Net cash used for investing activities was $4.7 million for the first nine months of 2020, compared to net cash used for investing activities of $4.5 million in 2019. The movement was due to the impact of the higher proceeds from the sale of businesses in 2019, partially offset by a decrease in capital expenditures in the current year which were $6.0 million and $10.3 million, for the first nine-months of 2020, and 2019, respectively. We anticipate capital expenditures for fiscal 2020 to be approximately $10 million.
Financing activities
In the first nine months of 2020, net cash used for financing activities was $27.3 million (2019: $16.5 million inflow). We made net repayments on our banking facilities of $16.5 million (2019: $31.7 million drawdown) and dividend payments of $10.2 million (2019: $10.2 million), equating to $0.375 per ordinary share. We received $1.1 million (2019: $3.3 million) in relation to proceeds from sales of shares and paid out $1.3 million (2019: $4.3 million) in settling share based compensation.
Capital Resources
Dividends
We paid year-to-date dividends in 2020 of $10.2 million (2019: $10.2 million year-to-date), or $0.375 per ordinary share.
Any payment of dividends is also subject to the provisions of the U.K. Companies Act, according to which dividends may only be paid out of profits available for distribution determined by reference to financial statements prepared in accordance with the Companies Act and IFRS as adopted by the E.U., which differ in some respects from GAAP. In the event that dividends are paid in the future, holders of the ordinary shares will be entitled to receive payments in U.S. dollars in respect of dividends on the underlying ordinary shares in accordance with the deposit agreement. Furthermore, because we are a holding company, any dividend payments would depend on cash flows from our subsidiaries.
Authorized shares
Our authorized share capital consists of 40.0 million ordinary shares with a par value of £0.50 per share.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
See Note 1 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information pertaining to recently adopted accounting standards or accounting standards to be adopted in the future.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We have adopted various accounting policies to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Certain of our accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. In our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 9, 2020, we identified the critical accounting policies which affect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements.

Item 3.        Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk
There have been no material changes in our market risk during the three quarters ended September 27, 2020, except for the impact of COVID-19, which is addressed as a specific risk factor in ITEM-1A in Part II of this filing. For additional information, refer to Item 7A of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 9, 2020.

Item 4.        Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of our published financial statements and other disclosures included in this report. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter ended September 27, 2020, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 28, 2020, as a result of the material weakness described in Item 9A of the Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 9, 2020 not having been fully remediated by the second quarter of 2020.
Ongoing Remediation of Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As previously described in Plan for Remediation of Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting of Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 we began implementing a remediation plan to address the material weakness mentioned above. In line with the plan we have implemented enhanced controls to monitor and document privileged access to, and segregation of duties within, the ERP system; and have updated the design of certain process-level controls. However, the weakness will not be considered remediated until all the applicable controls have been implemented and seen to operate for a sufficient period of time.

In light of the material weakness, the Company performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are fairly presented in all material respects in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for the periods presented herein.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter and annual period ended September 27, 2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.        Legal Proceedings
While we are involved from time to time in claims and legal proceedings that result from, and are incidental to, the conduct of our business including business and commercial litigation, employee and product liability claims, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party, or of which any of their property is subject. It is possible, however, that an adverse resolution of an unexpectedly large number of such individual claims or proceedings could in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on results of operations for a particular year or quarter.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A. of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except that the adverse impact of the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak has become more significant and widespread. The related risk factors under the caption "We depend upon our larger suppliers for a significant portion of our raw materials, and a loss of one of these suppliers, or a significant supply interruption could negatively impact our financial performance" as previously disclosed in Item 1A. of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K relating to COVID-19, remain applicable. In addition to the supply-side risks there are additional risks related to a fall in customer demand. We therefore highlight the following additional risk.

Our results of operations may be negatively impacted by the coronavirus disease pandemic
In December 2019, the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) surfaced in Wuhan, China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the coronavirus ("COVID-19") a pandemic. The rapid spread of the pandemic and the continuously evolving responses to combat it have had an increasingly negative impact on the global economy, resulting in an economic downturn that could impact demand for our products and our ability to produce them. With many countries affected, there have been widespread disruptions from the temporary closure of third-party supplier and manufacturer facilities and interruptions in product supply. To date the outbreak has resulted in a decline in revenues and profitability as highlighted in Item 2, Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. While there have been some positive indicators such as restrictive measures being reduced in many countries and the reopening of temporarily closed facilities, the future impact remains highly uncertain and cannot be predicted and there is no assurance that the outbreak will not have a material adverse impact on the future results of the Company. The extent of the impact will depend on future developments, including global and country-specific actions taken to contain the spread of the coronavirus.
