FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can identify forward-looking statements by words such as “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and other words of similar meaning and expression in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance or events. We have also included forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q concerning, among other things, our strategy, goals, plans and projections regarding our financial position, liquidity and capital resources, results of operations, market position and product development. These statements are based on current estimates that involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, our actual results could vary materially from our current expectations. There are a number of factors that could cause our actual results to differ from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. They include: uncertainties related to changes in macroeconomic and/or global conditions, including as a result of increased inflation and Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the resulting sanctions on Russia; the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on our business operations, financial results and financial position and on the industries in which we operate and the global economy generally; other economic recession; our ability to achieve all anticipated benefits of restructuring, simplification and modernization initiatives; Commercial Excellence growth initiatives, Operational Excellence initiatives, our foreign operations and international markets, such as currency exchange rates, different regulatory environments, trade barriers, exchange controls, and social and political instability, including the conflict in Ukraine; changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate, including environmental, health and safety regulations; potential for future goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges; our ability to protect and defend our intellectual property; continuity of information technology infrastructure; competition; our ability to retain our management and employees; demands on management resources; availability and cost of the raw materials we use to manufacture our products; product liability claims; integrating acquisitions and achieving the expected savings and synergies; global or regional catastrophic events; demand for and market acceptance of our products; business divestitures; energy costs; commodity prices; labor relations; and implementation of environmental remediation matters. We provide additional information about many of the specific risks we face in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in other periodic reports we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We can give no assurance that any goal or plan set forth in our forward-looking statements will be achieved and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date made. Except as required by law, we do not intend to release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements as a result of future events or developments.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which include our accounts and those of our subsidiaries in which we have a controlling interest, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”). The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023 was derived from the audited balance sheet included in our 2023 Annual Report. The interim statements are unaudited; however, we believe that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods were made and all adjustments are normal recurring adjustments. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal year. Unless otherwise specified, any reference to a “year” is to a fiscal year ended June 30. For example, a reference to 2024 is to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Kennametal Inc. and its subsidiaries.

2.SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW DISCLOSURES


	Three Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2023		2022
Cash paid during the period for:
Interest	$	5,031	$	5,143
Income taxes	13,310		9,626
Supplemental disclosure of non-cash information:
Changes in accounts payable related to purchases of property, plant and equipment	(4,789)		(8,708)

3. SUPPLIER FINANCE PROGRAM

We have a supplier finance program managed through two global financial institutions under which we agree to pay the financial institutions the stated amount of confirmed invoices from our participating suppliers on the invoice due date. We, or the global financial institutions, may terminate our agreements at any time upon 30 days written notice. We do not provide any forms of guarantees under these agreements. Supplier participation in the program is solely up to the supplier. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to participate in the program, and their participation has no bearing on our payment terms or amounts due. The payment terms that we have with our suppliers under this program are considered commercially reasonable. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the amount of obligations outstanding that the Company has confirmed as valid to the financial institutions under the program was $24.5 million and $20.7 million, respectively, and was recorded within trade accounts payable.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels to prioritize the inputs used in valuations, as defined below:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable.

KENNAMETAL INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

As of September 30, 2023, the fair values of our financial assets and financial liabilities are categorized as follows:


(in thousands)	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

(1) Currency derivatives are valued based on observable market spot and forward rates and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

There have been no changes in classification and transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy in the current period.

5. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

As part of our financial risk management program, we use certain derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and, therefore, we do not hold any derivative instruments for trading purposes. We account for derivative instruments as a hedge of the related asset, liability, firm commitment or anticipated transaction, when the derivative is specifically designated and qualifies as a hedge of such items. Our objective in managing foreign exchange exposures with derivative instruments is to reduce volatility in cash flow. We measure hedge effectiveness by assessing the changes in the fair value or expected future cash flows of the hedged item.

There were no derivatives designated as hedging instruments as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023. The fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are as follows:


(in thousands)	September 30, 2023		June 30, 2023






Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments
Other current assets - currency forward contracts	$	1	$	68
Other current liabilities - currency forward contracts	(90)		(100)

Total derivatives	$	(89)	$	(32)

Table of Contents

KENNAMETAL INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Certain currency forward contracts that hedge significant cross-border intercompany loans are considered as other derivatives and therefore do not qualify for hedge accounting. These contracts are recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, with the offset to other expense, net. Losses (gains) related to derivatives not designated as hedging instruments have been recognized as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2023		2022
Other expense (income), net - currency forward contracts	$	122	$	(306)

NET INVESTMENT HEDGES

As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, there were no foreign currency-denominated intercompany loans payable outstanding that were designated as net investment hedges. A gain of $1.7 million was recorded as a component of foreign currency translation adjustments in other comprehensive loss for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

6. RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES, NET

In the June quarter of fiscal 2023, we announced an initiative to streamline our cost structure while continuing to invest in our high-return commercial and operational excellence initiatives. Total restructuring and related charges for this program of $11.1 million, compared to a target of approximately $20 million, were recorded through September 30, 2023, consisting of $8.5 million in Metal Cutting and $2.6 million in Infrastructure. The majority of the remaining charges are expected to be recognized in fiscal 2024.

We recorded restructuring and related charges of $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, which consisted of $2.5 million in Metal Cutting and $1.2 million in Infrastructure. Also included in restructuring and other charges, net during the three months ended September 30, 2023 is a net benefit of $0.6 million primarily due to the sale of property.

We recorded no restructuring and related charges for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

As of September 30, 2023, $7.7 million and $2.2 million of the restructuring accrual was recorded in other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of June 30, 2023, $9.4 million and $0.5 million of the restructuring accrual was recorded in other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively. The amounts are as follows:


(in thousands)	June 30, 2023		Expense		Translation		Cash Expenditures		September 30, 2023
Severance	$	9,885	$	3,694	$	(229)	$	(3,448)	$	9,902

Inventory valuations under the LIFO method are based on an annual determination of quantities and costs as of June 30 of each year; therefore, the interim LIFO valuations are based on our projections of expected year-end inventory levels and costs and are subject to any final year-end LIFO inventory adjustments.

Inventories consisted of the following:


(in thousands)	September 30, 2023		June 30, 2023
Finished goods	$	336,340	$	328,094
Work in process and powder blends	240,803		233,346
Raw materials	82,898		81,552
Inventories at current cost	660,041		642,992
Less: LIFO valuation	(89,696)		(85,362)
Total inventories	$	570,345	$	557,630

10. LONG-TERM DEBT

Fixed rate debt had a fair market value of $519.1 million and $527.4 million at September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively. The Level 2 fair value is determined based on the quoted market prices for similar debt instruments as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

11. REVOLVING AND OTHER LINES OF CREDIT AND NOTES PAYABLE

During fiscal 2022, we entered into the Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of June 14, 2022 (the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement is a five-year, multi-currency, revolving credit facility, which we use to augment cash from operations and as an additional source of funds. The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit loans of up to $700.0 million for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. The Credit Agreement allows for borrowings in U.S. dollars, euros, Canadian dollars, pounds sterling and Japanese yen. Interest payable under the Credit Agreement is based upon the type of borrowing under the facility and may be (1) Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR), Sterling Overnight Index Average (SONIA), Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate (TIBOR), Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), and Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (CDOR) for any borrowings in euros, pounds sterling, yen, U.S. dollars and Canadian dollars, respectively, plus an applicable margin, (2) the greater of the prime rate or the Federal Funds effective rate plus an applicable margin, or (3) fixed as negotiated by us. The Credit Agreement matures in June 2027.

The Credit Agreement requires us to comply with various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including one financial covenant: a maximum leverage ratio where debt, net of domestic cash in excess of $25 million and sixty percent of the unrestricted cash held outside of the United States, must be less than or equal to 3.75 times trailing twelve months EBITDA, adjusted for certain non-cash expenses.

As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all the covenants of the Credit Agreement, and there were $23.4 million of borrowings outstanding and $676.6 million of additional availability. There were no borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2023.

Borrowings on other lines of credit and notes payable were $7.8 million and $0.7 million at September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

12. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The operation of our business has exposed us to certain liabilities and compliance costs related to environmental matters. We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation activities at certain sites associated with our current or former operations.

We establish and maintain accruals for estimated liabilities associated with certain environmental matters. At September 30, 2023, the balance of such accruals was $11.8 million, of which $1.6 million was current. At June 30, 2023, the balance was $12.0 million, of which $1.7 million was current.

KENNAMETAL INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

We record a loss contingency when the available information indicates it is probable that we have incurred a liability and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. The likelihood of a loss with respect to a particular environmental matter is often difficult to predict, and determining a meaningful estimate of the loss or a range of loss may not be practicable based on information available. When a material loss contingency is probable but a reasonable estimate cannot be made, or when a material loss contingency is at least reasonably possible, disclosure is provided. The accruals we have established for estimated environmental liabilities represent our best current estimate of the probable and reasonably estimable costs of addressing identified environmental situations, based on our review of currently available evidence, and taking into consideration our prior experience in remediation and that of other companies, as well as public information released by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), other governmental agencies and by the Potentially Responsible Party (PRP) groups in which we are participating. The accrued liabilities for all environmental concerns could change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the involvement of and direction taken by the government or the courts on these matters.

Among other environmental laws, we are subject to the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), under which we have been identified by the USEPA or other third party as a PRP with respect to environmental remedial costs at certain Superfund sites. We have evaluated our claims and estimated liability associated with these sites based upon the best information currently available to us. We believe our environmental accruals are adequate to cover our portion of the environmental remedial costs at the sites where we have been designated a PRP, to the extent these expenses are probable and reasonably estimable.

13. INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were 21.0 percent and 27.5 percent, respectively. The year-over-year change is primarily due to a $6.2 million benefit associated with a change in unrecognized tax benefits which was partially offset by a $2.9 million charge to settle the Italian tax litigation and geographical mix.

Italian Income Tax Litigation Settlement

In 2012, we received an assessment from the Italian tax authority that denied certain tax deductions primarily related to our 2008 tax return. Attempts at negotiating a reasonable settlement with the tax authority were unsuccessful; and as a result, we decided to litigate the matter which was eventually settled during the current quarter. We continue to believe the assessment was baseless and that our 2008 tax return was compliant, in all material respects, with Italian income tax rules and regulations. Accordingly, no income tax liability had been recorded in connection with this assessment in any period. If the Italian tax authority had been successful in litigation, payment of the assessment amount at its face on September 30, 2023 would have resulted in an increase to income tax expense for as much as €35.7 million, or $37.9 million, of which penalties and interest would have been €21.0 million, or $22.3 million.

During fiscal 2023, the Italian government launched a tax amnesty program aimed at reducing the number of tax disputes pending before the Italian courts. Pursuant to program guidelines, payments made to successfully resolve a dispute had to be received by the Italian government no later than September 30, 2023. Due to the prolonged amount of time the case had been pending, and the inherent costs and risks of further litigating the matter, we decided to negotiate a settlement with the Italian tax authority that resulted in an income tax charge of $2.9 million in the current quarter. With this settlement, we consider the matter to be officially closed.

14. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, while diluted earnings per share is calculated to reflect the potential dilution that would occur related to the issuance of capital stock under stock option grants, performance awards and restricted stock units. The difference between basic and diluted earnings per share relates solely to the effect of capital stock options, performance awards and restricted stock units.

To better align with the Company's strategic goals and initiatives, certain of the end markets that are reported externally and used to analyze sales performance were redefined beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. The changes include 1.) defense sales were moved from general engineering and are now combined with aerospace sales for a new "aerospace and defense" end market, 2.) certain Metal Cutting sales have been reclassified from general engineering to the aerospace and defense end market, and 3.) Infrastructure's ceramics sales have been reclassified from energy to the general engineering end market. The fiscal 2023 period has been retrospectively restated to align with the new end markets.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (MD&A)

OVERVIEW

Kennametal Inc. was founded based on a tungsten carbide technology breakthrough in 1938. The Company was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1943 as a manufacturer of tungsten carbide metal cutting tooling and was listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in 1967. With more than 80 years of materials expertise, the Company is a global industrial technology leader, helping customers across the aerospace and defense, earthworks, energy, general engineering and transportation industries manufacture with precision and efficiency. This expertise includes the development and application of tungsten carbides, ceramics, super-hard materials and solutions used in metal cutting and extreme wear applications to keep customers up and running longer against conditions such as corrosion and high temperatures.

Our standard and custom product offering spans metal cutting and wear applications including turning, milling, hole making, tooling systems and services, as well as specialized wear components and metallurgical powders. End users of the Company's metal cutting products include manufacturers engaged in a diverse array of industries including: the manufacturers of transportation vehicles and components, machine tools and light and heavy machinery; airframe and aerospace components; and energy-related components for the oil and gas industry, as well as power generation. The Company’s wear and metallurgical powders are used by producers and suppliers in equipment-intensive operations such as road construction, mining, quarrying, oil and gas exploration, refining, production and supply, and for aerospace and defense.

Throughout MD&A, we refer to measures used by management to evaluate performance. We also refer to a number of financial measures that are not defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), including organic sales growth (decline), constant currency regional sales growth (decline) and constant currency end market sales growth (decline). We provide the definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures at the end of the MD&A section as well as details on the use and derivation of these financial measures.

Our sales of $492.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 reflect flat organic growth and no meaningful effect from business days or foreign currency.

Operating income was $45.1 million compared to $48.5 million in the prior year quarter. The year-over-year decrease of $3.4 million was primarily due to higher wages and general inflation, lower sales volumes, higher raw material costs and restructuring and related charges of approximately $4 million in the current quarter. These factors were partially offset by higher price realization and operational efficiencies including restructuring savings. Operating margin was 9.2 percent compared to 9.8 percent in the prior year quarter. The Metal Cutting and Infrastructure segments had operating margins of 10.4 percent and 7.4 percent, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) a pandemic bringing significant uncertainty in our end markets and operations. Although COVID-19 is no longer considered a global emergency, the slow recovery in China, temporary labor shortages due to COVID-19 related absenteeism in certain regions and other supply chain challenges have created significant operating constraints on our business.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 resulted in the imposition of economic sanctions on Russia by the United States, Canada, the European Union and other countries. We have experienced increased costs for energy and raw materials and other supply chain issues due, in part, to the negative impact of the conflict on the global economy. During the March quarter of 2022, the Company ceased operations in Russia and subsequently decided to liquidate its legal entity in Russia, which is expected to be completed during fiscal 2024. Similarly, the developing conflict in Israel that began in October 2023 could negatively impact the Company's financial condition or results of operations. To date, the Israeli conflict has not significantly affected the Company's business activities or results of operations.

The outcome of the strike of the U.S. United Auto Workers (UAW) members also has the potential to negatively affect our business as well as our customers in the transportation end market. To date, the strike has not significantly affected the Company's business activities or results of operations.

Our business has also been negatively affected by foreign currency exchange and inflationary headwinds. We have been able to partially mitigate the effects of inflation, foreign currency exchange challenges and other disruptions through price increases on our products. We cannot predict the ultimate effect of these issues on our business, operating results or financial condition, but we will continue to monitor macroeconomic conditions and attempt to mitigate the negative effect to the extent possible.

Current quarter earnings per diluted share (EPS) was $0.37 compared to EPS of $0.34 in the prior year quarter. EPS for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was unfavorably affected by restructuring and related charges of $0.04 per share.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Cash flow provided by operating activities was $25.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to negative $10.7 million during the prior year period. Capital expenditures were $31.8 million and $29.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company returned approximately $30 million to shareholders through $14 million in share repurchases under the three-year share repurchase program and $16 million in dividends. The Company has a long history of consistently paying dividends to shareholders since its listing on the New York Stock Exchange in 1967.

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

SALES Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $492.5 million, a decrease of $2.3 million, or 0 percent, from $494.8 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting flat organic sales growth and no meaningful effect from business days or foreign currency.

Our sales growth (decline) by end market and region are as follows:

GROSS PROFIT Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $162.9 million, an increase of $2.9 million from $160.0 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to higher price realization and operational efficiencies including restructuring savings. These factors were partially offset by higher wages and general inflation, lower sales volumes and higher raw material costs. Gross profit margin for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was 33.1 percent, as compared to 32.3 percent in the prior year quarter.

OPERATING EXPENSE Operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $111.6 million compared to $108.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Research and development expenses included in operating expense totaled $11.0 million and $10.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES, NET In the June quarter of fiscal 2023, we announced an initiative to streamline our cost structure while continuing to invest in our high-return commercial and operational excellence initiatives. During the quarter, we achieved restructuring savings of approximately $4 million from this action, and currently expect to deliver annualized run rate pre-tax savings of approximately $20 million by the end of fiscal 2024. Total restructuring and related charges for this program of $11.1 million, compared to a target of approximately $20 million, were recorded through September 30, 2023, consisting of $8.5 million in Metal Cutting and $2.6 million in Infrastructure. The majority of the remaining charges are expected to be recognized in fiscal 2024.

INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 remained flat at $6.6 million compared to $6.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

OTHER EXPENSE, NET Other expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $0.1 million compared to $1.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The year-over year change is due primarily to foreign currency exchange.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES The effective income tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were 21.0 percent and 27.5 percent, respectively. The year-over-year change is primarily due to a $6.2 million benefit associated with a change in unrecognized tax benefits which was partially offset by a $2.9 million charge to settle the Italian tax litigation and geographical mix.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, Metal Cutting sales increased 3 percent compared to the prior year quarter. This was driven by organic growth of 2 percent and a favorable foreign currency effect of 1 percent. Aerospace & defense end market sales increased in the Americas and EMEA as a result of our focused execution on our strategic initiatives and a continuing expansion in global travel following the COVID-19 slowdown, the effects of which were partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange and a decline in Asia Pacific due to lower economic activity in China. Sales in the general engineering end market increased in the Americas and EMEA as industrial activity continues to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic and underlying economic activity expands, the effects of which were partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange and a slower recovery in China from COVID-related disruptions. Energy end market sales declined in all regions due to market disruptions and project delays, the effects of which were partially offset by favorable foreign currency exchange. Transportation end market sales declined in Asia Pacific and the Americas as a result of slowing customer demand, the effects of which were partially offset by improving customer supply chains and hybrid/electric vehicle business in EMEA and favorable foreign currency exchange.

On a regional basis, sales in the Americas increased primarily due to strength in general engineering and aerospace & defense. Sales growth in EMEA reflects the execution on our strategic initiatives. Sales in Asia Pacific decreased due to a slower recovery in China from COVID-related disruptions and unfavorable foreign currency exchange.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, Metal Cutting operating income was $32.1 million compared to $28.6 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in operating income was primarily due to higher price realization and operational efficiencies including restructuring savings. These factors were partially offset by higher wages and general inflation, lower sales volumes, restructuring and related charges of approximately $3 million in the current quarter and higher raw material costs.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, Infrastructure sales decreased by 5 percent from the prior year quarter. The decrease in sales was driven by an organic sales decline of 3 percent, an unfavorable foreign currency effect of 1 percent and an unfavorable business days effect of 1 percent. Energy end market sales decreased primarily due to U.S. oil and gas where land rig counts decreased year over year. Sales in the general engineering end market decreased in all regions primarily due to declines in industrial activity year over year. Earthworks end market sales were flat year over year, excluding the unfavorable foreign currency effect, as growth in underground mining was offset by a decline in construction. Aerospace & defense end market sales increased primarily due to order timing in EMEA. On a regional basis, sales in EMEA increased due to the aerospace & defense end market. Sales in Asia Pacific were flat year over year, excluding the unfavorable foreign currency effect, due to an increase in the earthworks end market offset with decreases in other end markets. Sales in the Americas declined primarily due to the energy and general engineering end markets.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, Infrastructure operating income was $13.6 million compared to $20.8 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to lower sales volumes, higher raw material costs and less price realization.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash flow from operations is the primary source of funding for our capital expenditures. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, cash flow provided by operating activities was $25.7 million.

Table of Contents

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

We consider the majority of the unremitted earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries to be permanently reinvested. With regard to these unremitted earnings, we have not, nor do we anticipate the need to, repatriate funds to the U.S. to satisfy domestic liquidity needs arising in the ordinary course of business, including liquidity needs associated with our domestic debt service requirements. With regard to the small portion of unremitted earnings that are not indefinitely reinvested, we maintain a deferred tax liability for foreign withholding and U.S. state income taxes.

At September 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents were $95.1 million. Total Kennametal Shareholders' equity was $1,260.4 million and total debt was $626.6 million. Our current senior credit ratings are at investment grade levels. We believe that our current financial position, liquidity and credit ratings provide us access to the capital markets. We believe that we have sufficient resources available to meet cash requirements for the next 12 months. We continue to closely monitor our liquidity position and the condition of the capital markets, as well as the counterparty risk of our credit providers. There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments since June 30, 2023.

Share Repurchase Program In July 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to purchase up to $200 million of the Company's common stock over a three-year period. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 505 thousand shares of common stock for $13.7 million.

Dividends During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company paid a dividend of $0.20 per share for a total of $15.9 million in dividends returned to shareholders.

Cash Flow Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, cash flow provided by operating activities was $25.7 million, compared to negative $10.7 million for the prior year period. Cash flow provided by operating activities for the current year period consisted of net income and non-cash items amounting to an inflow of $81.2 million and changes in certain assets and liabilities netting to an outflow of $55.5 million. Contributing to the changes in certain assets and liabilities were a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $32.6 million, an increase in inventories of $20.3 million, and a decrease in accrued income taxes of $11.7 million. Offsetting these cash outflows was a decrease in accounts receivable of $17.9 million.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, cash flow used in operating activities was $10.7 million consisting of net income and non-cash items amounting to an inflow of $68.2 million and changes in certain assets and liabilities netting to an outflow of $78.9 million. Contributing to the changes in certain assets and liabilities were a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $42.1 million, an increase in inventories of $38.5 million due to higher material costs, lengthening supply chains and higher sales volumes and a decrease in accrued pension and postretirement benefits of $2.5 million. Partially offsetting these cash outflows was a decrease in accounts receivable of $5.3 million and an increase in accrued income taxes of $1.6 million.

Cash Flow Used in Investing Activities

Cash flow used in investing activities was $28.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $29.3 million for the prior year period. During the current year period, cash flow used in investing activities primarily included capital expenditures of $31.8 million, which consisted primarily of equipment upgrades, partially offset by disposals of property, plant, and equipment of $3.0 million.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, cash flow used in investing activities was $29.3 million and primarily included capital expenditures of $29.5 million, which consisted primarily of equipment upgrades, partially offset by disposals of property, plant, and equipment of $0.2 million.

Cash Flow Used in (Provided by) Financing Activities

Cash flow used in financing activities was $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to cash flow provided by financing activities of $23.1 million in the prior year period. During the current year period, cash flow used in financing activities primarily included $15.9 million of cash dividends paid to Kennametal Shareholders, $13.7 million in common shares repurchased, and $7.0 million of the effect of employee benefit and stock plans and dividend reinvestment, partially offset by $23.4 million of borrowings under the Credit Agreement and an increase in notes payable of $7.2 million.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, cash flow provided by financing activities was $23.1 million and included $60.9 million of borrowings under the Credit Agreement and a $3.4 million increase in notes payable, partially offset by $19.4 million in common shares repurchased, $16.3 million of cash dividends paid to Kennametal Shareholders and $4.8 million of the effect of employee benefit and stock plans and dividend reinvestment.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Working capital was $590.7 million at September 30, 2023, a decrease of $2.1 million from $592.8 million at June 30, 2023. The decrease in working capital was primarily driven by an increase in borrowings under the Credit Agreement and notes payable of $30.5 million, a decrease in accounts receivable of $18.7 million, and a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $10.9 million, partially offset by a decrease in other current liabilities of $19.6 million, a decrease in accrued expenses of $13.4 million, and an increase in inventories of $12.7 million. Currency exchange rate effects decreased working capital by a total of approximately $10.2 million.

Property, plant and equipment, net decreased $10.8 million from $969.1 million at June 30, 2023 to $958.2 million at September 30, 2023, primarily due to depreciation expense of $30.5 million and unfavorable currency effects of $7.6 million, partially offset by net capital additions of $28.8 million.

At September 30, 2023, other assets were $544.0 million, a decrease of $7.4 million from $551.4 million at June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to amortization of intangibles of $3.0 million and unfavorable currency exchange effects.

Kennametal Shareholders' equity was $1,260.4 million at September 30, 2023, a decrease of $15.1 million from $1,275.4 million at June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to other comprehensive loss of $17.8 million, cash dividends paid to Kennametal Shareholders of $15.9 million and the repurchase of capital stock of $13.7 million primarily under the share repurchase program that was initiated during fiscal 2022, partially offset by net income attributable to Kennametal of $30.1 million.

DISCUSSION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies since June 30, 2023.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

RECONCILIATION OF FINANCIAL MEASURES NOT DEFINED BY U.S. GAAP

In accordance with SEC rules, below are the definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures we use in this report and the reconciliation of these measures to the most closely related GAAP financial measures. We believe that these measures provide useful perspective on underlying business trends and results and provide a supplemental measure of year-over-year results. The non-GAAP financial measures described below are used by management in making operating decisions, allocating financial resources and for business strategy purposes. We believe these measures may be useful to investors as they provide supplemental information about business performance and provide investors a view of our business results through the eyes of management. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered by the user in place of the related GAAP financial measure, but rather as supplemental information to our business results. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies due to possible differences in method and in the items or events being adjusted.

Organic sales growth (decline) Organic sales growth (decline) is a non-GAAP financial measure of sales growth (decline) (which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure) excluding the effects of acquisitions, divestitures, business days and foreign currency exchange from year-over-year comparisons. We believe this measure provides investors with a supplemental understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth (decline) on a consistent basis. Also, we report organic sales growth (decline) at the consolidated and segment levels.

Constant currency end market sales growth (decline) Constant currency end market sales growth (decline) is a non-GAAP financial measure of sales growth (decline) (which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure) by end market excluding the effects of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency exchange from year-over-year comparisons. We note that, unlike organic sales growth, constant currency end market sales growth does not exclude the effect of business days. We believe this measure provides investors with a supplemental understanding of underlying end market trends by providing end market sales growth (decline) on a consistent basis. Also, we report constant currency end market sales growth (decline) at the consolidated and segment levels.

Constant currency regional sales growth (decline) Constant currency regional sales growth (decline) is a non-GAAP financial measure of sales growth (decline) (which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure) by region excluding the effects of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency exchange from year-over-year comparisons. We note that, unlike organic sales growth, constant currency regional sales growth does not exclude the effect of business days. We believe this measure provides investors with a supplemental understanding of underlying regional trends by providing regional sales growth (decline) on a consistent basis. Also, we report constant currency regional sales growth (decline) at the consolidated and segment levels.

Reconciliations of organic sales growth (decline) to sales growth (decline) are as follows:

(1) Foreign currency exchange effect is calculated by dividing the difference between current period sales and current period sales at prior period foreign exchange rates by prior period sales.

(2) Aggregate sales for all end markets sum to the sales amount presented on Kennametal's financial statements.

(3) Aggregate sales for all regions sum to the sales amount presented on Kennametal's financial statements.

(4) Business days effect is calculated by dividing the year-over-year change in weighted average working days (based on mix of sales by country) by prior period weighted average working days.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes to our market risk exposures since June 30, 2023.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company's management evaluated, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). The Company's disclosure controls were designed to provide a reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, the controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the controls' stated goals. Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance at September 30, 2023 that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.


ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

Rule 10b5-1 Trading Arrangements

In the quarter ended September 30, 2023, none of our directors or officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Exchange Act) adopted, modified or terminated a plan for the purchase or sale of our securities intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) or a non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement for the purchase or sale of our securities, within the meaning of Item 408 of Regulation S-K.
