Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 2, 2023, Thermon Group Holdings, Inc. (“Thermon,” "the Company,""we,""us" or "our") issued a press release announcing its consolidated financial results for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
The information contained in, or incorporated into, this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
As a result of the continued impact of the Russo-Ukrainian war, including the sanctions related thereto, the Company conducted a strategic assessment of its operations in the Russian Federation, and, on January 31, 2023, the board of directors authorized the Company to withdraw from its operations in the Russian Federation (the “Russia Exit”), through a planned disposition of its Russian subsidiary. The charges of approximately $8.3 million recognized in the third fiscal quarter, related to the strategic assessment, were comprised of impairments of assets and other charges at December 31, 2022, primarily, $0.8 million in trade accounts receivable, $4.8 million in inventory, $1.8 million in other assets, and $0.9 million in long-lived assets. The $8.3 million charge does not include approximately $2 to $4 million in cash, net of other liabilities surrendered, as well as $2 to $3 million of accumulated foreign currency translation losses recorded in shareholders’ equity, which we expect to recognize as a charge once a sale or ultimate disposal is consummated. This brings the total estimated pretax charge related to the Russia exit to $12 to $15 million. However, this aggregate charge could vary further depending on operational activity as well as currency rate movements between the U.S. dollar and the Russian Ruble between December 31, 2022, and the time the sale or ultimate disposal is final.
We do not anticipate material future cash expenditures related to the Russia exit. Additionally, we anticipate incurring approximately $0.5 million in transaction-related professional fees to execute the transaction. All estimated amounts are subject to change until finalized.
The Company expects to substantially complete the Russia Exit by the first quarter of its fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, subject to the receipt of regulatory approval by the government of the Russian Federation and certain lenders under the Company's lending facilities.
