HEICO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of HEICO Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “HEICO,” or the “Company”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Therefore, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2021. The October 31, 2021 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statements of shareholders' equity and statements of cash flows for such interim periods presented. The results of operations for the six months ended April 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

The Company has two operating segments: the Flight Support Group (“FSG”), consisting of HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and HEICO Flight Support Corp. ("HFSC") and their respective subsidiaries; and the Electronic Technologies Group (“ETG”), consisting of HEICO Electronic Technologies Corp. (“HEICO Electronic”) and its subsidiaries.

The Company's results of operations in fiscal 2022 continue to reflect the adverse impact from the COVID-19 global pandemic (the “Pandemic”). Despite the aforementioned, the Company experienced continued improvement in operating results in the first six months and second quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to the first six months and second quarter of fiscal 2021 principally reflecting improved demand for its commercial aerospace products. The Flight Support Group has reported seven consecutive quarters of improvement in net sales and operating income resulting from signs of commercial air travel recovery in certain domestic travel markets, moderated by a slower recovery in international travel markets.

Index

New Accounting Pronouncement

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2021-08, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers," which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," as if the acquirer had originated the contracts. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, or in fiscal 2024 for HEICO. Early adoption is permitted and ASU 2021-08 shall be applied on a prospective basis to business combinations that occur on or after the adoption date. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

2. ACQUISITIONS

In March 2022, the Company, through a subsidiary of HFSC, acquired 74% of the membership interests of Pioneer Industries, LLC ("Pioneer"). Pioneer is a specialty distributor of spares for military aviation, marine, and ground platforms. The remaining 26% interest continues to be owned by certain members of Pioneer's management team (see Note 3, Selected Financial Statement Information - Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests, for additional information). The total consideration includes an accrual of $9.8 million as of the acquisition date representing the estimated fair value of contingent consideration the Company may be obligated to pay should Pioneer meet a certain earnings objective following the acquisition. See Note 8, Fair Value Measurements, for additional information regarding the Company’s contingent consideration obligation. The purchase price of this acquisition was paid in cash, principally using proceeds from the Company's revolving credit facility.

In March 2022, the Company, through a subsidiary of HEICO Electronic, acquired 100% of the stock of Flight Microwave Corporation ("Flight Microwave"). Flight Microwave is a designer and manufacturer of custom high power filters and filter assemblies used in space and defense applications. The purchase price of this acquisition was paid in cash using cash provided by operating activities.

The purchase price of Pioneer and Flight Microwave is not material or significant to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The allocation of the total consideration for the fiscal 2022 acquisitions to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities and noncontrolling interests assumed is preliminary until the Company obtains final information regarding their fair values. However, the Company does not expect any adjustment to such allocations to be material to the Company's consolidated financial statements. The operating results of the fiscal 2022 acquisitions were included in the Company’s results of operations as of each effective acquisition date. The amount of net sales and earnings of the fiscal 2022 acquisitions included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six and three months ended April 30, 2022 is not material. Had the fiscal 2022 acquisitions

Index

occurred as of November 1, 2020, net sales, net income from consolidated operations, net income attributable to HEICO, and basic and diluted net income per share attributable to HEICO shareholders on a pro forma basis for the six and three months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 would not have been materially different than the reported amounts.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

The holders of equity interests in certain of the Company's subsidiaries have rights ("Put Rights") that may be exercised on varying dates causing the Company to purchase their equity interests through fiscal 2032. The Put Rights, all of which relate either to common shares or membership interests in limited liability companies, provide that the cash consideration to be paid for their equity interests (the "Redemption Amount") be at fair value or a formula that management intended to reasonably approximate fair value based solely on a multiple of future earnings over a measurement period. Management's estimate of the aggregate Redemption Amount of all Put Rights that the Company could be required to pay is as follows (in thousands):


	April 30, 2022	October 31, 2021
Redeemable at fair value	$270,107	$217,416
Redeemable based on a multiple of future earnings	33,820	35,171
Redeemable noncontrolling interests	$303,927	$252,587

As discussed in Note 2, Acquisitions, the Company, through a subsidiary of HFSC, acquired 74% of the membership interests of Pioneer in March 2022. As part of the operating agreement, the noncontrolling interest holders have the right to cause the Company to purchase their membership interest over a four-year period beginning in fiscal 2029, or sooner under certain conditions, and the Company has the right to purchase the same membership interest over the same period.

During fiscal 2022, the Company sold a 3% equity interest in a subsidiary of the FSG that was acquired in fiscal 2015, which decreased the Company's ownership interest in the subsidiary to 82%. As part of the operating agreement, the noncontrolling interest holder has the right to cause the Company to purchase its equity interest over a five-year period beginning in fiscal 2028, or sooner under certain conditions, and the Company has the right to purchase the same equity interest over the same period.

During fiscal 2022, the Company sold 10% of the membership interests of a subsidiary of the FSG that was acquired in fiscal 2018, which decreased the Company's ownership interest in the subsidiary to 90%. As part of the operating agreement, the noncontrolling interest holder has the right to cause the Company to purchase its membership interest over a four-year period beginning in fiscal 2027, or sooner under certain conditions, and the Company has the right to purchase the same membership interest over the same period.

6. REVENUE

Contract Balances

Contract assets (unbilled receivables) represent revenue recognized on contracts using an over-time recognition model in excess of amounts invoiced to the customer. Contract liabilities (deferred revenue) represent customer advances and billings in excess of revenue recognized and are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Changes in the Company’s contract assets and liabilities for the six months ended April 30, 2022 are as follows (in thousands):


	April 30, 2022	October 31, 2021	Change
Contract assets	$79,598	$80,073	($475)
Contract liabilities	54,385	32,738	21,647
Net contract assets	$25,213	$47,335	($22,122)

The increase in the Company's contract liabilities during the first six months of fiscal 2022 principally reflects the receipt of advance deposits on certain customer contracts at both the ETG and FSG.

The amount of revenue that the Company recognized during the six and three months ended April 30, 2022 that was included in contract liabilities as of the beginning of fiscal 2022 was $19.6 million and $6.1 million, respectively.

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of April 30, 2022, the Company had $447.1 million of remaining performance obligations associated with contracts with an original duration of greater than one year pertaining to the majority of the products offered by the ETG as well as certain products of the FSG's specialty products product line. The Company will recognize net sales as these obligations are satisfied. The Company expects to recognize $204.6 million of this amount during the remainder of fiscal 2022 and $242.5 million thereafter, of which the majority is expected to occur in fiscal 2023.

7. INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective tax rate was 15.0% in the first six months of fiscal 2022, as compared to 12.0% in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The increase in the Company's effective tax rate principally reflects an unfavorable impact from tax-exempt unrealized losses in the cash surrender values of life insurance policies related to the HEICO Leadership Compensation Plan ("HEICO LCP") in the first six months of fiscal 2022 as compared to the tax-exempt unrealized gains recognized on such policies in the first six months of fiscal 2021, partially offset by a larger tax benefit from stock option exercises recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The Company recognized a discrete tax benefit from stock option exercises in both the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and 2021 of $17.8 million and $13.5 million, respectively. The tax benefit from stock option exercises in both periods was the result of strong appreciation in HEICO's stock price during the optionees' holding periods.

The Company's effective tax rate was 23.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, as compared to 19.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in the Company's effective tax rate principally reflects an unfavorable impact from tax-exempt unrealized losses in the cash surrender values of life insurance policies related to the HEICO LCP in the second quarter of

Litigation

On April 20, 2021, an indirect subsidiary of HFSC, which was acquired in June 2020, received a grand jury subpoena from the United States District Court for the Southern District of California requiring the production of documents for the time period December 1, 2017 through February 4, 2019 related to the subsidiary's employment of a certain individual and its performance of work on certain Navy vessels during that time period. The Company is cooperating with the investigation. The Company has completed its production of documents responsive to the subpoena, although the Company has a continuing obligation to produce such documents should any be located. At this early stage in the investigation, the Company cannot predict the outcome of the investigation or when the investigation will ultimately be resolved; nor can the Company reasonably estimate the possible range of loss or impact to its business, if any, that may result from this matter.

Index

With the exception of the matter noted above, the Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Based upon the Company’s and its legal counsel’s evaluations of any claims or assessments, management is of the opinion that the outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

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

Overview

This discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included herein. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates if different assumptions were used or different events ultimately transpire.

Our critical accounting policies, which require management to make judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain, are described in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2021. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended April 30, 2022.

Our business is comprised of two operating segments: the Flight Support Group (“FSG”), consisting of HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and HEICO Flight Support Corp. and their respective subsidiaries; and the Electronic Technologies Group (“ETG”), consisting of HEICO Electronic Technologies Corp. and its subsidiaries.

Our results of operations in fiscal 2022 continue to reflect the adverse impact from the COVID-19 global pandemic (the “Pandemic”). Despite the aforementioned, we experienced continued improvement in operating results in the first six months and second quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to the first six months and second quarter of fiscal 2021 principally reflecting improved demand for our commercial aerospace products. The Flight Support Group has reported seven consecutive quarters of improvement in net sales and operating income resulting from signs of commercial air travel recovery in certain domestic travel markets, moderated by a slower recovery in international travel markets.

Additionally, our results of operations for the six and three months ended April 30, 2022 have been affected by the fiscal 2021 acquisitions as further detailed in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2021 and the fiscal 2022 acquisitions as further detailed in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this quarterly report.

Comparison of First Six Months of Fiscal 2022 to First Six Months of Fiscal 2021

Net Sales

Our consolidated net sales in the first six months of fiscal 2022 increased by 16% to a record $1,029.2 million, up from net sales of $884.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The increase in consolidated net sales principally reflects an increase of $149.4 million (a 35% increase) to $579.0 million in net sales within the FSG, partially offset by a decrease of $6.9 million (a 1% decrease) to $459.7 million in net sales within the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects strong organic growth of 26% as well as net sales of $36.3 million contributed by our fiscal 2021 and 2022 acquisitions. The FSG's organic growth reflects increased demand for the majority of our commercial aerospace products and services resulting from continued recovery in global commercial air travel as compared to the prior year. As such, organic net sales increased by $62.8 million, $30.5 million and $19.8 million within our aftermarket replacement parts, repair and overhaul parts and services and specialty products product lines, respectively. The net sales decrease in the ETG principally reflects a 3% decrease in organic net sales, partially offset by $10.4 million contributed by our fiscal 2021 and 2022 acquisitions. The ETG's organic net sales decline is mainly attributable to decreased demand for our defense products resulting in a net sales decrease of $36.7 million, partially offset by increased demand for our medical, other electronics, telecommunications and space products resulting in net sales increases of $9.2 million, $4.9 million, $3.3 million and $2.2 million, respectively. Although sales price changes were not a significant contributing factor to the change in net sales of the FSG and ETG in the first six months of fiscal 2022, recent cost inflation and potential supply chain disruptions may lead to higher sales prices during the remainder of fiscal 2022.

Gross Profit and Operating Expenses

Our consolidated gross profit margin increased to 39.0% in the first six months of fiscal 2022, up from 38.2% in the first six months of fiscal 2021, principally reflecting a 3.8% improvement in the FSG's gross profit margin, partially offset by a .6% decrease in the ETG's gross profit margin. The increase in the FSG's gross profit margin principally reflects the previously mentioned higher net sales across all product lines. The reduction in the ETG's gross profit margin principally reflects the decrease in net sales of defense products and an increase in new product research and development expenses as a percentage of net sales to support ongoing new product research and development activities. Total new product research and development expenses included within our consolidated cost of sales were $37.1 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022, up from $34.2 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021.

Our consolidated selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $179.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022, as compared to $161.2 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The increase in consolidated SG&A expenses principally reflects costs incurred to support the previously mentioned net sales growth resulting in increases of $6.3 million and $6.1 million in general and administrative expenses and selling expenses, respectively. Additionally, the increase in consolidated SG&A expenses reflects $6.3 million attributable to our fiscal 2021 and 2022 acquisitions.

Index

Our consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 17.5% in the first six months of fiscal 2022, down from 18.2% in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The decrease in consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales principally reflects the efficiencies realized from the higher net sales, as a well as a .4% impact from lower intangible asset amortization expense and a .2% favorable impact from changes in the estimated fair value of accrued contingent consideration.

Operating Income

Our consolidated operating income increased by 25% to a record $221.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022, up from $177.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The increase in consolidated operating income principally reflects a $57.3 million increase (a 93% increase) to a record $118.6 million in operating income of the FSG, partially offset by a $9.8 million decrease (a 7% decrease) to $121.6 million in operating income of the ETG. The increase in operating income of the FSG principally reflects the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin, net sales growth, and efficiencies realized from the higher net sales volume. The decrease in operating income of the ETG principally reflects a lower level of efficiencies resulting from the net sales decrease, as well as the previously mentioned lower gross profit margin. Further, the increase in consolidated operating income was partially offset by $4.5 million of higher corporate expenses mainly attributable to an increase in performance-based compensation expense and the suspension of corporate salary reductions as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

Our consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales increased to 21.5% in the first six months of fiscal 2022, up from 20.0% in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The increase principally reflects an increase in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales to 20.5% in the first six months of fiscal 2022, up from 14.3% in the first six months of fiscal 2021, partially offset by a decrease in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales to 26.4% in the first six months of fiscal 2022, as compared to 28.2% in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The increase in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin, as well as a 2.4% impact from a decrease in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales mainly reflecting the previously mentioned efficiencies. The decrease in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects a 1.1% impact from an increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales mainly from the previously mentioned lower level of efficiencies, as well as the previously mentioned lower gross profit margin.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased to $1.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022, down from $4.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The decrease was principally due to a lower weighted average balance of borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility.

Index

Other Income

Other income in the first six months of fiscal 2022 and 2021 was not material.

Income Tax Expense

Our effective tax rate was 15.0% in the first six months of fiscal 2022, as compared to 12.0% in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The increase in our effective tax rate principally reflects an unfavorable impact from tax-exempt unrealized losses in the cash surrender values of life insurance policies related to the HEICO Leadership Compensation Plan ("HEICO LCP") in the first six months of fiscal 2022 as compared to the tax-exempt unrealized gains recognized on such policies in the first six months of fiscal 2021, partially offset by a larger tax benefit from stock option exercises recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. We recognized a discrete tax benefit from stock option exercises in both the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and 2021 of $17.8 million and $13.5 million, respectively. The tax benefit from stock option exercises in both periods was the result of strong appreciation in HEICO's stock price during the optionees' holding periods.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests relates to the 20% noncontrolling interest held by Lufthansa Technik AG in HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and the noncontrolling interests held by others in certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $15.4 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022, as compared to $11.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests principally reflects improved operating results of certain subsidiaries of the FSG in which noncontrolling interests are held, inclusive of fiscal 2021 and 2022 acquisitions, partially offset by a decrease in the operating results of certain subsidiaries of the ETG in which noncontrolling interests are held.

Net Income Attributable to HEICO

Net income attributable to HEICO increased by 22% to $171.9 million, or $1.25 per diluted share, in the first six months of fiscal 2022, up from $141.3 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, in the first six months of fiscal 2021 principally reflecting the previously mentioned higher consolidated operating income.

Index

Comparison of Second Quarter of Fiscal 2022 to Second Quarter of Fiscal 2021

Net Sales

Our consolidated net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 increased by 15% to $538.8 million, up from net sales of $466.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in consolidated net sales principally reflects an increase of $76.0 million (a 33% increase) to $306.3 million in net sales within the FSG, partially offset by a decrease of $5.7 million (a 2% decrease) to $237.4 million in net sales within the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects strong organic growth of 23% as well as net sales of $22.7 million contributed by our fiscal 2021 and 2022 acquisitions. The FSG's organic growth reflects increased demand for the majority of our commercial aerospace products and services resulting from continued recovery in global commercial air travel as compared to the prior year. As such, organic net sales increased by $30.3 million, $12.2 million and $10.8 million within our aftermarket replacement parts, repair and overhaul parts and services and specialty products product lines, respectively. The net sales decrease in the ETG principally reflects a 4% decrease in organic net sales, partially offset by $5.2 million contributed by our fiscal 2021 and 2022 acquisitions. The ETG's organic net sales decline is mainly attributable to decreased demand for our defense products resulting in a net sales decrease of $22.1 million, partially offset by increased demand for our space, medical, other electronics and telecommunications products resulting in net sales increases of $4.4 million, $4.2 million, $2.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Although sales price changes were not a significant contributing factor to the change in net sales of the FSG and ETG in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, recent cost inflation and potential supply chain disruptions may lead to higher sales prices during the remainder of fiscal 2022.

Gross Profit and Operating Expenses

Our consolidated gross profit margin increased to 39.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, up from 38.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021, principally reflecting a 3.4% improvement in the FSG's gross profit margin, partially offset by a .4% decrease in the ETG's gross profit margin. The increase in the FSG's gross profit margin principally reflects the previously mentioned higher net sales across all product lines. The reduction in the ETG's gross profit margin principally reflects the decrease in net sales of defense products and an increase in new product research and development expenses as a percentage of net sales to support ongoing new product research and development activities. Total new product research and development expenses included within our consolidated cost of sales were $18.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, up from $18.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021.

Our consolidated SG&A expenses were $88.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, as compared to $83.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in consolidated SG&A expenses principally reflects $3.4 million attributable to our fiscal 2021 and 2022 acquisitions and an increase of $3.1 million in selling expenses to support the previously mentioned net sales growth, partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in general and administrative expenses.

Index

Our consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 16.4% in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, down from 17.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The decrease in consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales principally reflects the efficiencies realized from the higher net sales, as well as a .6% impact from lower accrued performance-based compensation expense, a .4% favorable impact from changes in the estimated fair value of accrued contingent consideration, and a .3% impact from lower intangible asset amortization expense.

Operating Income

Our consolidated operating income increased by 27% to a record $122.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, up from $96.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in consolidated operating income principally reflects a $30.7 million increase (an 87% increase) to a record $66.2 million in operating income of the FSG, partially offset by a $5.3 million decrease (a 7% decrease) to $66.0 million in operating income of the ETG. The increase in operating income of the FSG principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth, improved gross profit margin, and efficiencies realized from the higher net sales volume. The decrease in operating income of the ETG principally reflects a lower level of efficiencies resulting from the net sales decrease, as well as the previously mentioned lower gross profit margin.

Our consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales increased to 22.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, up from 20.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase principally reflects an increase in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales to 21.6% in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, up from 15.4% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021, partially offset by a decrease in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales to 27.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, as compared to 29.3% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin, as well as a 2.9% impact from a decrease in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales mainly reflecting the previously mentioned efficiencies. The decrease in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects a 1.1% impact from an increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales mainly from the previously mentioned lower level of efficiencies, as well as the previously mentioned lower gross profit margin.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased to $1.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, down from $2.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The decrease was principally due to a lower weighted average balance of borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility.

Other Income

Other income in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 and 2021 was not material.

Index

Income Tax Expense

Our effective tax rate was 23.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, as compared to 19.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in our effective tax rate principally reflects an unfavorable impact from tax-exempt unrealized losses in the cash surrender values of life insurance policies related to the HEICO LCP in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to the tax-exempt unrealized gains recognized on such policies in the second quarter of fiscal 2021.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests relates to the 20% noncontrolling interest held by Lufthansa Technik AG in HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and the noncontrolling interests held by others in certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $8.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, as compared to $5.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests principally reflects improved operating results of certain subsidiaries of the FSG in which noncontrolling interests are held, inclusive of fiscal 2021 and 2022 acquisitions.

Net Income Attributable to HEICO

Net income attributable to HEICO increased by 20% to $85.0 million, or $.62 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, up from $70.7 million, or $.51 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 principally reflecting the previously mentioned higher consolidated operating income.

Outlook

As we look ahead to the remainder of fiscal 2022, we expect global commercial air travel to continue growing despite the potential for additional Pandemic variants. We remain cautiously optimistic that the ongoing worldwide rollout of Pandemic vaccines, including boosters, will continue to positively influence global commercial air travel and benefit the markets we serve. But, it still remains very difficult to predict the Pandemic's path and effect, including factors like new variants and vaccination rates, potential supply chain disruptions and inflation, which can impact our key markets. Therefore, we feel it would not be responsible to provide fiscal 2022 net sales and earnings guidance at this time. However, we believe our ongoing conservative policies, strong balance sheet, and high degree of liquidity enable us to continuously invest in new research and development, take advantage of periodic strategic inventory purchasing opportunities, and execute on our successful acquisition program, which collectively position HEICO for market share gains.

Index

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal uses of cash include acquisitions, capital expenditures, cash dividends, distributions to noncontrolling interests and working capital needs. We now anticipate fiscal 2022 capital expenditures to be approximately $40 million. We finance our activities primarily from our operating and financing activities, including borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility contains both financial and non-financial covenants. As of April 30, 2022, we were in compliance with all such covenants and our total debt to shareholders’ equity ratio was 11.0%.

On April 7, 2022, we entered into an amendment to extend the maturity date of our Revolving Credit Facility Agreement ("Credit Facility") by one year to November 2024 and to replace the Eurocurrency Rate with Adjusted Term SOFR as an election in which borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest, as such capitalized terms are defined in the Credit Facility.

Based on our current outlook, we believe that our net cash provided by operating activities and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $174.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022 and consisted primarily of net income from consolidated operations of $187.4 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $46.7 million (a non-cash item), net changes in other long-term liabilities and assets related to the HEICO LCP of $13.4 million (principally participant deferrals and employer contributions), $6.9 million in share-based compensation expense (a non-cash item), and $5.4 million in employer contributions to the HEICO Savings and Investment Plan (a non-cash item), partially offset by an $87.4 million increase in net working capital. The increase in net working capital is inclusive of a $42.8 million increase in inventories reflecting strategic buys within our distribution businesses and to support an increase in consolidated backlog, a $20.3 million increase in accounts receivable resulting from the previously mentioned net sales growth, a $15.9 million decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities mainly reflecting the payment of fiscal 2021 accrued performance-based compensation, and a $9.0 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $35.4 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022 from $210.1 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The decrease is principally attributable to a $83.8 million increase in net working capital, partially offset by a $34.6 million increase in net income from consolidated operations, a $10.6 million decrease in deferred income tax benefits and a $2.6 million increase in share-based compensation expense. The increase in net working capital primarily resulted from the previously mentioned increase in inventories, the payment of a larger amount of accrued performance-based compensation in the first six months of fiscal 2022 resulting from the much improved fiscal 2021 operating results, and the increase in accounts receivable as a result of the previously mentioned net sales growth.

Index

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $144.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022 and related primarily to acquisitions of $105.5 million, capital expenditures of $16.2 million, investments related to the HEICO LCP of $11.7 million, and $10.5 million of other investing activities. Further details regarding our fiscal 2022 acquisitions may be found in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities in the first six months of fiscal 2022 totaled $18.1 million. During the first six months of fiscal 2022, we made $65.0 million in payments on our revolving credit facility, redeemed common stock related to stock option exercises aggregating $23.7 million, paid $12.2 million in cash dividends on our common stock, and made $10.6 million of distributions to noncontrolling interests, which were partially offset by $93.0 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

Other Obligations and Commitments
