Overview

Mirion is a global provider of products, services, and software that allow our customers to safely leverage the power of ionizing radiation for the greater good of humanity through critical applications in the medical, nuclear and defense markets, as well as laboratories, scientific research, analysis, and exploration.

Mirion provides dosimetry solutions for monitoring the total amount of radiation medical staff members are exposed to over time, radiation therapy quality assurance solutions for calibrating and verifying imaging and treatment accuracy, and radionuclide therapy products for nuclear medicine applications such as shielding, product handling, medical imaging furniture, and rehabilitation products. Mirion provides robust, field-ready personal radiation detection and identification equipment for defense applications and radiation detection and analysis tools for power plants, labs, and research applications. Nuclear power plant product offerings are used for the full nuclear power plant lifecycle including core detectors, essential measurement devices for new build, maintenance, decontamination and decommission, and equipment for monitoring and control during fuel dismantling and remote environmental monitoring.

Mirion manages and reports results of operations in two business segments: Medical and Industrial.

 

   

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, Mirion’s revenues were $144.3 million, of which 36.0% was generated in the Medical segment and 64.0% was generated in the Industrial segment, as compared with revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020 of $114.6 million with 17.8% and 82.2% generated in the Medical and Industrial segments, respectively.

 

   

Backlog (representing committed but undelivered contracts and purchase orders, including funded and unfunded government contracts) was $702.9 million and $715.8 million as of September 30, 2021, and June 30, 2021, respectively.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

We believe that the business and results of operations may be impacted in the future by various trends and conditions, including the following:

 

   

Medical end market trends – Growth and operating results in our Medical segment are impacted by:

 

   

Increased or changes to global regulatory standards;

 

   

Increased focus on healthcare safety;

 

   

Changes to healthcare reimbursement;

 

   

Potential budget constraints in hospitals and other healthcare providers;

 

1


   

Medical/lab dosimetry growth supported by growing and aging demographics, increased number of healthcare professionals, and penetration of radiation therapy/diagnostics; and

 

   

Medical radiation therapy quality assurance (“RT QA”) growth driven by growing and aging population demographics, low penetration of RT QA technology in emerging markets, and increased adoption of advanced software and hardware solutions for improved outcomes and administrative and labor efficiencies.

 

   

Business combinations – A large driver of our growth has been the acquisition and integration of related businesses. Our ability to integrate, restructure, and leverage synergies of these businesses will impact our operating results over time.

 

   

Environmental objectives of governments – Growth and operating results in our Industrial segment are impacted by environmental policy decisions made by governments in the countries where we operate. Our nuclear power customers may benefit from decarbonization efforts given the relatively low carbon footprint of nuclear power to other existing energy sources. In addition, decisions by governments to build new power plants or decommission existing plants can positively and negatively impact our customer base.

 

   

Government budgets – While we believe that we are poised for growth from governmental customers in both of our segments, our revenues and cash flows from government customers are influenced, particularly in the short-term, by budgetary cycles. This impact can be either positive or negative.

 

   

Nuclear new build projects – A portion of our backlog is driven by contracts associated with the construction of new nuclear power plants. These contracts can be long-term in nature and provide us with a strong pipeline for the recognition of future revenues in our Industrial segment.

 

   

Research and development – A portion of our operating expenses is associated with research and development activities associated with the design of new products, which provide opportunities for future revenue growth. Given the specific design and application of certain of these products, there is some risk that these costs will not result in successful products in the market. Further, the timing of these products can move and be challenging to predict.

 

   

Supply chain – We source certain raw materials, parts, and components used in our products from third-party suppliers. The availability and prices for these inputs may be subject to curtailment or change due to, among other things, suppliers’ allocation to other purchasers, interruptions in supplier production and shipping, and prevailing pricing levels. Shortages in raw materials, parts, and components sourced from suppliers or price increases could therefore affect the prices we charge, our operating costs, and our competitive position, which could adversely affect our operations, financial condition, results, and cash flows.

 

   

COVID-19COVID-19 may affect revenue growth in certain of our businesses, primarily those serving our medical end markets, and it is uncertain how materially COVID-19 will affect our global operations generally if these impacts were to persist or worsen over an extended period of time. The extent and duration of the impacts are uncertain and dependent in part on customers returning to work and economic activity ramping up. The impact of COVID-19 on our customers has affected our sales operations in certain ways, including increased customer disputes regarding orders, delayed customer notices to proceed with production, delayed payment from customers and, on rare occasions, customers have refused to pay for their orders entirely. Further, access to customer sites for sales was limited in some cases.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”). However, management believes certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors and other users with additional meaningful information that should be considered when assessing our ongoing performance. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating, and planning decisions, and in evaluating our performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may differ from similarly captioned measures presented by other companies.

We use the non-GAAP financial measures “Adjusted revenues,” “Adjusted net (loss) income,” “EBITA,” “EBITDA”, “Adjusted EBITDA, “Free Cash Flow,” and “Adjusted Free Cash Flow.” See the “Quarterly Results of Operations” and “Cash flows” sections below for definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliation to their most directly comparable GAAP measures.

On December 18, 2020, we purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Sun Nuclear Corporation (“SNC”) for an aggregate of $258.1 million, net of cash acquired of $18.8 million. SNC is a global leader in radiation therapy quality assurance, delivering patient safety solutions for diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy providers in multiple countries around the world. The acquisition is included in our Medical segment and will advance the Company’s strategy to further expand into the radiation therapy and diagnostic imaging markets globally.

On September 1, 2020, the Company purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Biodex Medical Systems, Inc. (“Biodex”) for an aggregate of $26.9 million, net of cash acquired of $4.1 million. Biodex is a manufacturer and distributor of medical devices and related replacement parts for physical and nuclear medicine, as well as medical imaging applications located in the United States. The acquisition is included in our Medical segment and will advance the Company’s strategy to further expand into the medical treatment markets globally.

On November 10, 2021, the Company signed an agreement to acquire Computerized Imaging Reference Systems, Inc. (“CIRS”) for approximately $54.0 million of cash consideration. CIRS is a United States-based developer of tissue simulation and medical phantom technology for radiation therapy and diagnostic imaging. The acquisition will be included in our Medical segment and is part of our strategic expansion into radiation therapy and diagnostic imaging markets. We expect the acquisition to close in the fourth quarter of calendar 2021.

Business Combination

On June 17, 2021, Mirion entered into a business combination agreement (as amended, the “BCA”) with GSAH, a special purpose acquisition company. On October 20, 2021, Mirion consummated the business combination transaction (the “Business Combination”) pursuant to the agreement, combining with a subsidiary of GSAH upon closing, for total consideration of approximately $2.6 billion. Existing Mirion stockholders received cash consideration of approximately $1.3 billion and shares of Class A and Class B GSAH

 

4


common stock valued at approximately $0.4 billion on the date of closing. The outstanding balances of the Shareholder Notes and the 2019 Credit Facility as of October 20, 2021, the closing date of the Business Combination (the “Closing Date”), were paid in full through the cash consideration and new financing obtained through the Credit Agreement described below.

The Business Combination will be accounted for under ASC 805, Business Combinations. GSAH has been determined to be the accounting acquirer. Mirion constitutes a business in accordance with ASC 805 and the business combination constitutes a change in control. Accordingly, the business combination will be accounted for using the acquisition method. Under this method of accounting, Mirion will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes and the net assets of the post-business combination company will be stated at fair value, with goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

In conjunction with the signing of the BCA, certain members of Mirion management received profits interests in the sponsor of GSAH, subject to service vesting conditions and market vesting conditions linked to the stock price of GSAH subsequent to the closing of the business combination. These profits interests had no financial impact on Mirion prior to the merger. Subsequent to the Business Combination, the combined company will recognize compensation expense related to these awards.

Credit Facilities

In March 2019, Mirion Technologies (HoldingRep), Ltd. (“MT HoldingRep”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and its subsidiaries entered into a credit agreement with Morgan Stanley Senior Funding Inc., as administrative agent, certain other revolving lenders and a syndicate of institutional lenders (the “2019 Credit Facility”). The 2019 Credit Facility originally provided for financing of a $450.0 million senior secured term loan facility and a €125.0 million senior secured term loan facility, as well as a $90.0 million revolving line of credit. The 2019 Credit Facility was amended to provide an additional $34.0 million, $66.0 million and $225.0 million of senior secured term loans in July 2019, December 2019 and December 2020, respectively. During the year ended June 30, 2021, Mirion borrowed a net $218.8 million of notes payable under the 2019 Credit Facility and a net $70.0 million of borrowings from related parties at 11.5% interest, offset by $35.0 million of net repayments of borrowings on the revolver term loan, $6.4 million net repayments under the 2019 Credit Facility, and $6.0 million net repayments of the NRG loan. As of September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, the aggregate principal amount of the term loan outstanding under the 2019 Credit Facility was $900.6 million and $906.4 million, respectively. The 2019 Credit Facility was repaid in full upon the consummation of the Business Combination and replaced with the New Credit Facilities (as defined below). See Note 8 to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report.

In connection with the closing of the business combination with GSAH on October 20, 2021, Mirion Technologies (HoldingSub2) Ltd. (“MT HoldingSub2”), a subsidiary of Mirion TopCo, and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Citibank, N.A. (as the Administrative Agent) and certain financial institutions as lenders. The Credit Agreement provides for an $830 million senior secured first lien term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) and a $90 million senior secured revolving facility (the “Revolving Facility”) (together the “New Credit Facilities”). The Term Loan matures on October 20, 2028 and will amortize in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 1% of the initial principal amount of the Term Loan. The Revolving Facility matures on October 20, 2026. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Debt Profile.”

Public Company Costs

Subsequent to the Business Combination, New Mirion will continue as an SEC-registered and NYSE-listed company. We expect to hire additional staff and implement new processes and procedures to address public company requirements. We also expect to incur substantial additional expenses for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees, and additional internal and external costs for investor relations, accounting, audit, legal and other functions.

Basis of Presentation

Financial information presented was derived from Mirion’s historical consolidated financial statements and accounting records, and they reflect the historical financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the business in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. For consolidated subsidiaries where our ownership is less than 100%, the portion of the net income or loss allocable to noncontrolling interests is reported as “Income (Loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. See the notes to the financial statements attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report, for additional information.

Overview

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021 were $144.3 million, resulting in an increase of $29.7 million, or 25.9%, from the same period in the prior year primarily driven by acquisitions in the Medical segment. Cost of revenues of $82.4 million also increased 21.4% compared to the same period in the prior year reflecting the increase in revenues and product mix. Gross profit increased by $15.2 million and approximately 2.0% and as a percentage of revenue period over period for the Company. There was a net loss of $46.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $40.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2020. The $6.3 million increase in net loss, or 15.6%, reflects the increase in gross profit, offset by higher SG&A expenses of $24.7 million primarily driven by acquisition activity in the Medical segment, including an increase in amortization of intangibles of $4.4 million, and an $11.6 million increase in non-operational costs related to the Business Combination and public company transition costs, costs to achieve synergies, and restructuring. Also contributing to the increase in net loss period over period was increased net interest expense of $5.9 million offset by the positive impact of foreign currency exchange of $9.5 million and an income tax benefit of $3.7 million. The impact of purchase accounting related to the fair value adjustment of deferred revenue reduced revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2021 by $3.7 million.

Revenues

Revenues were $144.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $29.7 million, or 25.9%, compared with $114.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The majority of the increase was a result of the acquisitions of SNC, Biodex, and Dosimetrics in the Medical segment contributing $29.4 million combined. The remaining increase reflects organic growth in the Medical segment contributing $2.2 million partially offset by a $2.1 million decrease in revenues (net of the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations) in the Industrial segment. The impact of purchase accounting related to the fair value adjustment of deferred revenue reduced revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2021 by $3.7 million.

By segment, revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021 were $52.0 million in the Medical segment and $92.3 million in the Industrial segment. Movements in revenues by segment are detailed in the “Business segments” section below.

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues was $82.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $14.5 million, or 21.4% compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was flat period over period. The increase in cost of revenues was primarily due to acquisitions in our Medical segment ($14.5 million combined from SNC and Biodex), an increase in our legacy Medical segment cost of revenues of $1.1 million related to the increase in revenues, $0.6 million of restructuring costs and costs to achieve operational synergies, offset by a $1.7 million decrease in cost of revenues (net of the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations) in the Industrial segment related to the decrease in revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $62.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $24.7 million, or 65.7%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenues were 43.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2021, a 10.4 percentage point increase compared with 32.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The primary drivers behind the increase in SG&A expenses were the impact of acquisitions in the Medical Segment ($11.5 million combined from SNC and Biodex, including a $4.4 million increase in amortization of intangible assets), $11.1 million of in non-operational costs related to the Business Combination and public company transition costs, costs to achieve synergies, and restructuring, and $1.9 million increase in legacy business compensation-related expenses.

Research and development

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses were $8.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $4.0 million, or 88.9%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in R&D expense was primarily due to business combinations ($4.9 million combined from SNC and Biodex) offset by decreased R&D activity of $1.2 million in the Industrial segment.

Loss from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $8.9 million, a decrease of $13.5 million, when compared to income from operations of $4.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. On a segment basis, income from operations was $2.6 million in the Medical segment, which includes $3.7 million in purchase accounting impacts described in revenues above, compared to $4.0 million in the prior period, and $12.5 million in Industrial segment compared to $11.4 million in the prior period. Corporate expenses were $24.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $10.8 million in the prior period. See “Business segments” and “Corporate and other” below for further details.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net, was $43.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $37.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The $5.9 million, or 15.6%, change is primarily driven by a $5.4 million non-cash increase in interest mostly related to the shareholder notes described in Note 8 to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report and a $0.5 million increase in cash interest on third-party debt as a result of increased borrowings to finance acquisitions subsequent to September 30, 2020.

Foreign currency (gain) loss, net

The Company recorded a gain of $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to a loss of $8.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, from foreign currency exchange. The change primarily is due to appreciation of the U.S. dollar in relation to European local currencies impacting third-party debt denominated in Euros.

Income taxes

Income tax benefit was $4.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 versus a benefit of $1.0 million in for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The $3.7 million change is primarily due to valuation allowances on losses incurred in the United States for the period ended September 30, 2020, as well as the mix of earnings and jurisdictions during each respective period.

Business segments

The following provides detail for business segment results for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020. Segment income from operations includes revenues of the segment less expenses that are directly related to those revenues but excludes certain charges to cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses predominantly related to corporate costs, shared overhead and other costs related to restructuring activities and costs to achieve operational initiatives, which are included in Corporate and Other in the table below. Interest expense, loss on debt extinguishment, foreign currency loss (gain), net, and other expense (income), net, are not allocated to segments.

For reconciliations of segment revenues and operating income to Mirion’s consolidated results, see Note 12 “Segment Information” to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report.

Medical segment revenues were $52.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, which is an increase of $31.6 million, or 154.9%, from the three months ended September 30, 2020. Revenues increased primarily due to the impact of the acquisitions of SNC, Biodex, and Dosimetrics contributing $29.4 million combined and an increase of $2.2 million in our legacy business. The impact of purchase accounting related to the fair value adjustment of deferred revenue reduced revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021 by $3.7 million.

Income from operations, which excludes non-operational costs, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $2.6 million, a decrease of $1.4 million compared with the three months ended September 30, 2020 resulting from a decrease of $1.8 million from the impact of acquisitions (SNC and Biodex) partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in legacy operations. Income from operations as a percentage of revenues decreased approximately 14.6% primarily due to the lower margins and higher operating expenses of the acquisitions in the three months ended September 30, 2021, driven in large part by amortization expense which increased by $5.7 million. Additionally, income from operations as a percentage of revenues was impacted by the $3.7 million reduction in revenue resulting from purchase accounting.

Industrial segment revenues were $92.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 2.0% from the three months ended September 30, 2020. Revenues decreased in both product revenues by $1.5 million and services revenues by $0.8 million, primarily due to supply chain challenges impacting the delivery of orders in the three months ended September 30, 2021. Foreign currency positively impacted revenues by approximately $0.4 million.

Income from operations, which excludes non-operational costs, was $12.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $1.1 million compared with the three months ended September 30, 2020. Income from operations as a percentage of revenues increased 1.4%. Both increases were primarily due to the reduction in research and development spending.

Corporate and other

Corporate and other costs include costs associated with Mirion’s headquarters located in Georgia, as well as centralized global functions including Executive, Finance, Legal and Compliance, Human Resources, Technology, Strategy, and Marketing and other costs related to company-wide initiatives (e.g., merger and acquisition activities, restructuring and other initiatives). Corporate and other costs were $24.0 million and $10.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively. The $13.2 million increase was predominantly driven by expenses related to the Business Combination and public company transition costs of $8.7 million, an increase in operational synergies costs of $2.4 million, restructuring costs of $1.5 million, an increase in compensation and related costs of $1.5 million, an increase in facility costs of $0.6 million, and an increase in costs to achieve information technology system integration and efficiency of $0.4 million, partially offset by a decrease in mergers and acquisition expenses of $0.9 million and a decrease in professional fees of $0.8 million.

Quarterly Results of Operations

The following table sets forth selected unaudited quarterly financial data for our last eight completed fiscal quarters. The information for each of these quarters reflects all adjustments that are of a normal, recurring nature and that we consider necessary for a fair presentation of our operating results for such periods. The quarterly results of operations presented should be read in conjunction with our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report and are not necessarily indicative of our operating results for any future period. Revenues for certain quarters are impacted by the capital spending patterns of government customers, which are influenced by budgetary considerations and driven by timing of fiscal year-ends.

Adjusted revenues, Adjusted net (loss) income, EBITA, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP. Adjusted revenues, Adjusted net (loss) income, EBITA, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are included in this document because they are key metrics used by management to assess our financial performance. We believe that these measures are useful because they provide investors with information regarding our operating performance that is used by our management in its reporting and planning processes. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures and disclosures reported by other companies.

Adjusted revenues are defined as U.S. GAAP revenues adjusted to remove the impact of purchase accounting on the recognition of deferred revenue. We have acquired businesses whose net tangible assets include deferred revenue. In accordance with GAAP reporting requirements, we recorded adjustments reducing deferred revenue under arrangements predating the business combination to fair value. Therefore, our GAAP revenues after the date of acquisition will not reflect the full amount of revenues that would have been reported if the acquired deferred revenue was not written down to fair value. Therefore, Adjusted revenues reverses the impact of this deferred revenue write-down to provide another view of the revenue run-rate in a given period and providing meaningful information for comparative results in future periods.

Adjusted net (loss) income is defined as U.S. GAAP net income adjusted for foreign currency gains and losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, the impact of purchase accounting on the recognition of deferred revenue, certain non-operating expenses (certain purchase accounting impacts related to revenues and inventory, restructuring and costs to achieve operational synergies, merger and acquisition expenses and IT project implementation expenses), and income tax impacts of these adjustments.

EBITA is defined as income before net interest expenses (including loss on debt extinguishment), income tax (benefit) provision, and amortization. EBITDA is defined as income before net interest expense (including loss on debt extinguishment), income tax (benefit) provision, and depreciation and amortization. EBITA and EBITDA are not terms defined under U.S. GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income as measures of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as measures of liquidity. Additionally, EBITA and EBITDA are not intended to be measures of free cash flow available for management’s discretionary use as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding the items described in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management as a measure of operating performance. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about our results of operations that management utilizes on an ongoing basis to assess our core operating performance.

EBITA, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. You should not consider our EBITA, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as alternatives to operating income or net income, determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview of Liquidity

Mirion’s primary future cash needs relate to working capital, operating activities, capital spending, strategic investments, and debt service.

Mirion management believes that net cash provided by operating activities, augmented by long-term debt arrangements, will provide adequate liquidity for the next 12 months of independent operations, as well as the resources necessary to invest for growth in existing businesses and manage its capital structure on a short- and long-term basis. Access to capital and availability of financing on acceptable terms in the future will be affected by many factors, including Mirion’s credit rating, economic conditions, and the overall liquidity of capital markets. There can be no assurance of continued access to capital markets on acceptable terms.

At September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, Mirion had $100.6 million and $101.1 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents, which include amounts held by entities outside of the United States of approximately $63.3 million and $67.3 million, respectively, primarily in Europe and Canada. Non-U.S. cash is generally available for repatriation without legal restrictions, subject to certain taxes, mainly withholding taxes. Mirion is not asserting indefinite reinvestment of cash for certain non-U.S. subsidiaries due to the outstanding debt obligations in instances where alternative repatriation options other than dividends are not available. The 2019 Credit Facility provided for up to $90.0 million of revolving borrowings. As of September 30, 2021, Mirion had borrowing availability of $82.2 million under the 2019 Credit Facility after giving effect to $7.8 million of outstanding letters of credit.

Long-term debt obligations

See Note 8 of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report for a description of the long-term debt arrangements issued by Mirion.

Debt Profile

Third Party Debt Before the Business Combination

As of September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, the aggregate principal amount of the term loan outstanding under the 2019 Credit Facility was $900.6 million and $906.4 million, respectively. The USD portion of the term loan had a 7-year term (maturing in March 2026), bearing interest at the greater of Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or 0%, plus 4.00%. The interest rate was 4.08% and 4.15% at September 30, 2021, and June 30, 2021, respectively. The Company repaid $1.9 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and September 30, 2020, respectively. The Euro portion of the term loan also had a 7-year term (maturing in March 2026), bearing interest at the greater of European Union interbank market (“Euribor”) or 0%, plus 4.25%. Annual principal payments on the first lien term loan facilities were due quarterly and were 0.25% of the original principal balance per quarter. As of September 30, 2021, and June 30, 2021, the interest rate was 4.25%. The Company repaid $0.4 million and $0.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021, and September 30, 2020, respectively. The revolving line of credit had a 5-year term and bore interest at the greater of LIBOR or 0%, plus 4.00%. The agreement requires the payment of a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum for unused revolving commitments. The revolving line of credit had a final maturity date in March 2024. Any outstanding letters of credit issued under the 2019 Credit Facility reduced the availability under the revolving line of credit. There was no outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2021, and September 30, 2020. Additionally, the Company had standby letters of credit issued under the 2019 Credit Facility that reduced the amount available under the revolving credit facility by $7.8 million and $8.7 million at September 30, 2021, and June 30, 2021, respectively; the amount available on the revolving credit facility was approximately $82.2 million and $81.3 million for the same periods, respectively

The 2019 Credit Facility was secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of MT HoldingRep and its borrower and guarantor subsidiaries organized in the United States and by certain assets of borrower or guarantor subsidiaries organized in Germany, United Kingdom, Canada, France, Belgium and Luxembourg, in each case, subject to customary exceptions and limitations. Loan fees recorded as debt discounts are amortized using the effective interest method. The 2019 Credit Facility contained customary affirmative and negative covenants. The revolving facility also contained a financial covenant that requires MT HoldingRep and subsidiaries, under certain conditions, to maintain a “consolidated first lien secured debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio” (as defined in the 2019 Credit Facility) of 7.70:1.00. The negative covenants, subject to certain thresholds and exceptions, generally limited the ability of MT HoldingRep and subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional debt, create liens, make fundamental changes, make certain investments, pay dividends, purchase or retire equity interests, or prepay or retire certain debt. The covenants also contained limitations on the activities of MT HoldingRep as the “passive” holding company.

The 2019 Credit Facility was repaid in full upon the consummation of the Business Combination and replaced with the New Credit Facilities. In addition to the 2019 Credit Facility, at September 30, 2021, the Company had other outstanding third-party debt with an aggregate principal amount of $3.4 million, of which $0.3 million was paid off at the Closing; the remainder of which was unaffected by the closing of the Business Combination. At September 30, 2021, the Company also had $1,170.4 million in notes payable to related parties, all of which was extinguished upon the closing of the Business Combination. See Note 8 “Borrowings” in the Company’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report.

Debt After the Business Combination

In connection with the closing of the Business Combination on October 20, 2021, MT HoldingSub2 and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides for an $830 million Term Loan and a $90 million Revolving Facility. The Term Loan matures on October 20, 2028 and will amortize in equal quarterly installments in an annual amount equal to 1% of the initial principal amount of the Term Loan. The Revolving Facility matures on October 20, 2026.

Borrowings under the New Credit Facilities will accrue interest at a rate of LIBOR (with a LIBOR floor of 0.50%) plus 2.75%, subject to certain leverage-based step-downs with respect to the revolving credit facility. The Credit Agreement requires the payment of a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum, subject to certain leverage-based stepdowns, for unused revolving commitments.

The obligations of the borrowers under the New Credit Facilities and certain of their (and their subsidiaries’) respective obligations under hedging arrangements and cash management arrangements are unconditionally guaranteed by MT HoldingSub2 and each existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect wholly-owned US subsidiary of the borrowers (collectively, the “Guarantors”), in each case, other than certain excluded subsidiaries and subject to other customary limitations set forth in the definitive documentation with respect to the New Credit Facilities. The New Credit Facilities are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Guarantors, in each case subject to customary exceptions (including exceptions for certain adverse tax consequences).

The Revolving Facility requires us, in certain circumstances, to maintain a maximum first lien net leverage ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement of 7.00 to 1.00. This “springing” financial covenant is tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the last day of the second full fiscal quarter after the Closing Date, but only if on such date the revolving loans (excluding, for the first two fiscal quarters following the initial potential testing date, the amount of revolving loans drawn at closing) are outstanding in an aggregate principal amount exceeding 40% of the total revolving commitments under the Revolving Facility.

The New Credit Facilities contain a number of customary negative covenants. Such covenants, among other things, will limit or restrict the ability of each of the borrowers, their restricted subsidiaries, and where applicable, MT HoldingSub2, to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, incur liens on assets, sell assets and make certain dividends or other payments, and make acquisitions and other investments, subject to certain exceptions.

The New Credit Facilities also contain a number of negative covenants. Such covenants, among other things, will limit or restrict the ability of each of the borrowers, their restricted subsidiaries, and where applicable, the direct parent holding company of the borrowers, to, among other things:

 

   

incur additional indebtedness and grant guarantees;

 

   

incur liens on assets;

 

   

engage in mergers or consolidations or fundamental changes;

 

   

sell assets;

 

   

pay dividends and distributions or repurchase capital stock;

 

   

make investments, loans and advances, including acquisitions;

 

   

enter into certain agreements that would restrict the ability to grant liens;

 

   

repay certain junior indebtedness; and

 

   

in the case of MT HoldingSub2, engage in activities other than passively holding the equity interests in the parent borrower entity and other customary holding company activities.

Free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP. We believe that free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow are important because they provide management with measurements of cash generated from operations that is available for payment obligations and investment opportunities, such as repaying debt and funding acquisitions.

Free cash flow is defined as U.S. GAAP net cash provided by operating activities adjusted to include the impact of purchases of property, plant, and equipment and purchases of badges. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow adjusted to include the impact of cash used to fund non-operating expenses (as previously defined). We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to free cash flow applied in presenting Adjusted free cash flow is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about our cash flows that management utilizes on an ongoing basis to assess our ability to generate cash for use in acquisitions and other investing and financing activities.

Free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. You should not consider our Free cash flow or Adjusted free cash flow as alternatives to net cash provided by (used for) operating activities in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $11.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021, a $17.6 million, or 270.8%, increase compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to cash inflow of $24.4 million from improved working capital (cash inflows of $7.1 million in accounts receivable, $5.2 million in accounts payable, $2.4 million in inventories, and $13.8 million from other operating assets and liabilities, offset by cash outflows of $4.1 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities) offset by cash outflow resulting from a decrease in net loss adjusted for non-cash items of approximately $6.8 million.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $9.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $32.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The $22.6 million, or 70.0%, decrease is primarily the result of less acquisition activity (a decrease of $26.3 million) offset by increased purchases of property, plant and equipment and badges. Capital expenditures were $8.8 million and $5.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 and the three months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, related to property, plant, and equipment and badges.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $0.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $37.2 million of cash used in the three months ended September 30, 2020. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, Mirion borrowed a net $1.9 million of third-party borrowings, offset by $2.3 million of repayments of principal. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, Mirion made $2.2 million of repayments of principal and $35.0 million repayments of borrowings on the revolver term loan.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Mirion’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. Such estimates are based on historical experience and on various other factors that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these judgments and estimates under different assumptions or conditions and any such differences may be material. Mirion believes that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates.

Business combinations

We account for business acquisitions in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. This standard requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and establishes the acquisition date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Certain provisions of this standard prescribe, among other things, the determination of acquisition date fair value of consideration paid in a business combination (including contingent consideration) and the exclusion of transaction and acquisition-related restructuring costs from acquisition accounting.

The determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed involves assessments of factors such as the expected future cash flows associated with individual assets and liabilities and appropriate discount rates at the closing date of the acquisition. For non-observable market values, the Company determines fair value using acceptable valuation principles (e.g., multiple excess earnings, relief from royalty and cost methods).

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition of a business.

Goodwill has an indefinite useful life, and is not amortized, but instead tested for impairment annually during the fiscal year fourth quarter or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may exceed fair value as set forth in ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. The Company tests for goodwill impairment at the reporting unit level, which is an operating segment or one level below an operating segment. The amount of goodwill acquired in a business combination that is assigned to one or more reporting units as of the acquisition date is the excess of the purchase price of the acquired businesses (or portion thereof) included in the reporting unit, over the fair value assigned to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed from a market participant perspective. Goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit(s) expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination even though other assets or liabilities of the acquired entity may not be assigned to that reporting unit.

ASC 350 allows an optional qualitative assessment as part of annual impairment testing, prior to a quantitative assessment test, to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount. If a qualitative assessment determines an impairment is more likely than not, the Company is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. Otherwise, no further analysis is required. Alternatively, the Company may elect to proceed directly to the quantitative impairment test.

In conducting a qualitative assessment, the Company analyzes actual and projected growth trends for net sales and margin for each reporting unit, as well as historical performance versus plan and the results of prior quantitative tests performed. Additionally, the Company assesses factors that may impact its business, including macroeconomic conditions and the related impact, market-related exposures, plans to market for sale all or a portion of the business, competitive changes, new or discontinued product lines, changes in key personnel, and any potential risks to projected financial results.

If performed, the quantitative test compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. We determine the fair value of each reporting unit by estimating the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted by the applicable discount rate, and peer company multiples. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment loss in the amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

Based upon our review and analysis, no impairments were deemed to have occurred during any of the years presented.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets relate to the value associated with our developed technology, customer relationships, backlog, trade names and non-compete agreements at the time of acquisition through business combinations. Definite lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, ranging from 1 to 16 years.

Revenue Recognition

Prior to July 1, 2019, the Company recognized revenue based on ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, when there was persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product delivery had occurred or services had been provided, the sales price was fixed or determinable and collectability was reasonably assured. Beginning July 1, 2019, the Company recognizes revenue based on ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers as performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of promised goods or service to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. See Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance below for a discussion of the change in revenue recognition accounting that became effective on July 1, 2019.

ASC 606

Performance Obligations

The Company identifies a performance obligation for each promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. As part of its assessment, the Company considers all goods and/or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. The Company’s contracts may contain either a single performance obligation, including the promise to transfer individual goods or services that are not separately distinct within the context of the respective contracts, or multiple performance obligations. For contracts that contain multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the consideration to which it expects to be entitled to each performance obligation based on relative standalone selling prices and recognizes the related revenue when or as control of each individual performance obligation is transferred to customers. Service revenues (warranty contracts, post contract support, and subscription-based services) are recognized over time as the customers receive and consume benefits of such services simultaneously.

The Company exercises judgment in determining the timing of revenue by analyzing the point in time or the period over which the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the performance obligation. Typically, over-time revenue recognition is based on the utilization of an input measure used to measure progress, such as costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs. Changes in total estimated costs are recognized using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting which recognize the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods in the current period. Accordingly, the effect of the changes on future periods of contract performance is recognized as if the revised estimate had been the original estimate. A significant change in an estimate on one or more contracts could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results from operations, or cash flows. However, there were no significant changes in estimated contract costs for the twelve months ended June 30, 2021.

If a performance obligation does not qualify for over-time revenue recognition, revenue is then recognized at the point-in-time in which control of the distinct good or service is transferred to the customer, typically based upon the terms of delivery.

Certain of the Company’s products are sold through distributors and third-party sales representatives under standard agreements whereby distributors purchase products from the Company and resell them to customers. These agreements give distributors the right to sell the Company’s products within certain territories and establish minimum order requirements. These arrangements do not provide stock rotation or price protection rights and do not contain extended payment terms. Rights of return are limited to repair or replacement of delivered products that are defective or fail to meet the Company’s published specifications. Provisions for these warranty costs are recognized in the same period that the related revenue is recorded.

The remaining performance obligation for open contracts as of June 30, 2021 include assembly, delivery, installation and training. Payment terms for shipments to end-users are generally net 30 days. Payment terms for distributor shipments may range from 30 to 90 days. Service arrangements can call for payments in advance of performing the work (e.g., extended warranty and service contracts), upon completion of contract milestones (e.g., custom development manufacturing), or a combination of each.

ASC 605

Prior to July 1, 2019, the Company recognized revenue from sales contracts when there was persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product delivery had occurred or services had been provided, the sales price was fixed or determinable and collectability was reasonably assured. For sales contracts that contain customer-specific acceptance provisions, revenue and the related costs were

deferred until the customer had indicated successful completion of site acceptance tests or the Company had otherwise determined that all customer-specific acceptance criteria had been met. Where the Company performed detailed factory acceptance testing on completed products, which, in some instances, was sufficiently extensive and reliable to demonstrate that its products meet the customer-specified objective acceptance criteria set forth in the related sales arrangements. In such instances, the Company recognized revenue based on delivery terms and prior to the receipt of notification of formal acceptance from the customer.

The Company combined a group of contracts as one project if they are closely related and were in substance, part of a single project with an overall project margin. The Company segmented a contract into several projects when they were of different business substance, for example, with different business negotiation, solutions, implementation plans, and margins.

The Company evaluated each deliverable in an arrangement to determine whether they represented separate units of accounting. A deliverable constituted a separate unit of accounting when it had stand-alone value, and for an arrangement that included a general right of return relative to the delivered products or services, when delivery or performance of the undelivered product or service was considered probable and is substantially controlled by the Company. The Company considers a deliverable to have stand-alone value if the product or service is sold separately by the Company or another vendor or could be resold by the customer on a stand-alone basis at an amount that would substantially recover the original purchase price. Further, the revenue arrangements generally do not include a general right of return relative to the delivered products. Where the aforementioned criteria for a separate unit of accounting are not met, the deliverable is combined with the undelivered element(s) and treated as a single unit of accounting for the purposes of allocation of the arrangement consideration and revenue recognition.

When a sales arrangement contains multiple units of accounting, the Company allocates the total arrangement consideration to each separable element of an arrangement based upon the relative selling price of each element. Allocation of the consideration is determined at arrangement inception based on each unit’s relative selling price, which is determined based on a selling price hierarchy. The relative selling price for a deliverable is based on its vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) if available, third-party evidence (“TPE”) if VSOE is not available or estimated selling price if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. The Company then recognizes revenue on each deliverable in accordance with its policies for product and service revenue recognition. The Company is not typically able to determine VSOE or TPE and therefore uses estimated selling prices to allocate revenue between the elements of the arrangement. The Company establishes its best estimate of the selling price considering multiple factors, including, but not limited to, pricing practices in different geographies and through different sales channels, costs and margin objectives, competitive pricing strategies and general market conditions.

The Company limits the amount of revenue recognition for delivered elements to the amount that is not contingent on the future delivery of products or services or future performance obligations or subject to customer-specific cancellation rights.

For all arrangements, amounts billed to a customer related to shipping and handling are classified as revenue while all costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling are classified as cost of revenue. Provisions and allowances for discounts to customers, estimated sales returns, service cancellations, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period that the related revenue is recorded.

Certain of the Company’s products are sold through distributors and third-party sales representatives under standard agreements whereby distributors purchase products from the Company and resell them to customers. These agreements give distributors the right to sell the Company’s products within certain territories and establish minimum order requirements. These arrangements do not provide stock rotation or price protection rights and do not contain extended payment terms. Rights of return are limited to repair or replacement of delivered products that are defective or fail to meet the Company’s published specifications. Provisions for these warranty costs are recognized in the same period that the related revenue is recorded.

Revenue from certain fixed-price contracts that involve customization of equipment to customer specifications is recorded using a percentage-of-completion method measured on the cost-to-cost basis. Contract costs include all direct materials and labor costs, as well as indirect costs related to contract performance. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability result in revisions to costs and revenue and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are first determined. Revenue earned in excess of billings on contracts in progress is classified in the consolidated balance sheet as a current asset and included in costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts. Amounts billed in excess of revenue earned are classified as a current liability and included in deferred contract revenue.

Revenue derived from passive dosimetry and analytical services is of a subscription nature, with passive dosimetry and analytical services provided to customers on an agreed-upon recurring monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. Services are provided to the customer through passive dosimeter badges that the Company supplies to customer personnel. Depending on the type of badge utilized, either customers return the used badges to the Company for analysis, or they obtain the analysis directly through a self-service web portal.

 

17


The Company believes that badge production, badge wearing, badge analysis and report preparation are all integral to the benefit that the Company provides to its customers and, therefore, the service period is defined as the period over which all of these services are provided. Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service period as the service is continuous, and no other discernible pattern of recognition is evident. Many customers pay for these measuring and monitoring services in advance. The amounts are recorded as deferred contract revenue in the consolidated balance sheets and represent customer deposits invoiced in advance for services to be rendered over the service period, net of a reserve for estimated cancellations.

Pertinent to ASC 606 and 605

The Company sells its products and services mainly to large, private, and governmental organizations in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific regions. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and limits the amount of credit extended when deemed necessary. The Company generally does not require its customers to provide collateral or other security to support accounts receivable.

Accounting for Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes and the related accounts under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. The Company classifies all deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any related valuation allowance, as non-current in the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. The Company classifies the liability for unrecognized tax benefits as current in the balance sheet, to the extent that the Company anticipates payment or receipt of cash within one year. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized in the provision for income taxes.

Foreign Currency Translation

Local currency is the functional currency for substantially all of the Company’s foreign operations. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet reporting date, while income and expenses are translated at the average monthly exchange rates during the period. We record gains and losses from the translation of financial statements in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars in other comprehensive income. The income tax effect of currency translation adjustments related to foreign subsidiaries that are not considered indefinitely reinvested is recorded as a component of deferred taxes with an offset to other comprehensive income. We record gains and losses from changes in exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than each reporting location’s functional currency in the consolidated statements of operations for each period.

Litigation

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims, litigation, investigations, and contingencies arising out of the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate results of such suits or other proceedings against us cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe the resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. If we believe the likelihood of an adverse legal outcome is probable and the amount is reasonably estimable, we accrue a liability in accordance with accounting guidance for contingencies. We consult with legal counsel on matters related to litigation and seek input both within and outside the Company.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
