ITEM1A – Risk Factors
Our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. If any of the events contemplated by the following risks actually occur, then
our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our business and operations have been, and may continue to be, adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. On January 30, 2020, the World Health
Organization declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern regarding the outbreak of COVID-19. In response to the resulting pandemic, governments around the world took various preventative
measures in order to control the spread of the virus, including restricting travel, full or partial business shutdowns and implementing social distancing policies. As a result, we experienced a significant drop in orders, especially in the second
quarter, and the global economy was plunged into a recession. Although business conditions in our markets had improved by late in the third quarter, the effects of the pandemic have continued to impact our operations and those of our customers and
suppliers. The duration of these effects and the timing of any broad economic recovery is uncertain and will likely be tied to the course of the pandemic. As we cannot predict the duration or scope of the
COVID-19 pandemic, or its broader impact on the global economy, including the demand for automobiles, it is unknown how long COVID-19 restrictions will remain in place
or what the impact of COVID-19 and its related effects will be on our business, results of operations or financial condition, but the impact could be material and last for an extended period of time.
We are dependent on the automotive industry.
Demand for our products is directly related to conditions in the global automotive industry, which is highly cyclical and is affected by a
variety of factors, including regulatory requirements, international trade policies, and consumer spending and preferences. The automotive industry is characterized by fierce competition and has undergone major restructuring in recent years. The
impact of evolving technological changes, including a growing emphasis on electric vehicles, as well as any decline in the automotive industry, domestic or foreign, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
We face intense competition.
We compete with a number of other manufacturers and distributors that produce and sell products similar to ours. Price, quality and service are
the primary elements of competition. Our competitors include a large number of independent domestic and international suppliers. We are not as large as a number of these companies and do not have as many financial or other resources. The competitive
environment has also changed dramatically over the past several years as our customers, faced with intense international competition and pressure to reduce costs, have expanded their worldwide sourcing of components. As a result, we have experienced
competition from suppliers in other parts of the world that benefit from economic advantages, such as lower labor costs, lower health care costs and fewer regulatory burdens. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully
with existing or new competitors. Increased competition could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
4
We rely on sales to major customers.
Our sales to three customers constituted approximately 36% of our consolidated revenues in 2020. Sales to TI Group Automotive Systems, LLC,
Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. and Parker-Hannifin Corporation accounted for approximately 14%, 12% and 10% of the Company’s consolidated revenues in 2020, respectively. The loss of any significant portion of our sales to these customers could
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We are subject to risks related to export sales.
Our export sales have increased in recent years, and we are working to continue to expand our business relationships with customers
outside of the United States. Export sales are subject to various risks, including risks related to changes in local economic, social and political conditions (particularly in emerging markets), changes in tariffs and trade policies and foreign
currency exchange rate fluctuations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Increases in our raw material costs or difficulties with our suppliers could negatively affect us.
While we currently maintain alternative sources for raw materials, our business is subject to the risk of price fluctuations and periodic
delays in the delivery of certain raw materials. At various times in recent years, we have been adversely impacted by increased costs for steel, our principal raw material, which we have been unable to wholly mitigate, as well as increases in other
materials prices. Any continued fluctuation in the price or availability of our raw materials could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Supply Chain Disruptions.
Many of our
customers depend upon intricate just-in-time supply chains. A disruption in a supply chain caused by one or more suppliers, and/or an unrelated supplier, due to part
shortages, work stoppages, bankruptcy, raw material shortages, natural disasters, coronavirus, tariffs, etc. could adversely impact our business, or our customers’ business, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of
operations and financial condition.
We may be adversely affected by labor relations issues.
Although none of our employees are unionized, the domestic automakers and many of their suppliers, including many of our customers, have
unionized work forces. Work stoppages or slow-downs experienced by automakers or their suppliers could result in slow-downs or closures of assembly plants where our products are included in assembled components. In the event that one or more of our
customers or their customers experiences a material labor relations issue, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
We may incur losses as a result of product liability, warranty or other claims that may be brought against us.
We face risk of exposure to warranty and product liability claims in the event that our products fail to perform as expected or result, or are
alleged to have resulted, in bodily injury, property damage or other losses. In addition, if any of our products are or are alleged to be defective, then we may be required to
5
participate in a product recall. We may also be involved from time to time in legal proceedings and commercial or contractual disputes. Any losses or other liabilities related to these exposures
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We could be adversely impacted by environmental
laws and regulations.
Our operations are subject to environmental laws and regulations. Currently, environmental costs and liabilities
with respect to our operations are not material, but there can be no assurance that we will not be adversely impacted by these costs and liabilities in the future either under present laws and regulations or those that may be adopted or imposed in
the future.
We could be adversely impacted by the loss of the services of key employees.
Successful operations depend, in part, upon the efforts of executive officers and other key employees. Our future success will depend, in part,
upon our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel. Loss of the services of any of our key employees, or the inability to attract or retain employees could have a material adverse affect upon our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
Any significant disruption, interruption or failure of our information systems could disrupt the operation of our business, result in
increased costs and decreased revenues and expose us to liability.
Cybersecurity threats are growing in number and sophistication and
include, among others, malicious software, attempts to gain unauthorized access to data, and other electronic security breaches that could lead to disruptions in critical systems, unauthorized release of confidential or otherwise protected
information and corruption of data. In addition to security threats, we are also subject to other systems failures, including network, software or hardware failures, whether caused by us, third-party service providers, natural disasters, power
shortages, terrorist attacks or other events. The unavailability of our information systems, the failure of these systems to perform as anticipated or any significant breach of data security could cause loss of data, disrupt our operations, lead to
financial losses from remedial actions, require significant management attention and resources, and negatively impact our reputation among our customers, which could have a negative impact on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.
The price of our common stock is subject to volatility, and our stock is thinly traded.
Various factors, such as general economic changes in the financial markets, announcements or significant developments with respect to the
automotive industry, actual or anticipated variations in our or our competitors’ quarterly or annual financial results, the introduction of new products or technologies by us or our competitors, changes in other conditions or trends in our
industry or in the markets of any of our significant customers, changes in governmental regulation, or changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our competitors or our industry, could cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate
substantially.
Our common stock is traded on the NYSE American (not registered, trading privileges only). The average daily trading
volume for our common stock during 2020 was less than 1,000 shares per day. As a result, you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock, and the price of our common stock may vary significantly based on trading volume.

ITEM3 – Legal Proceedings
The Company is, from time to time involved in litigation, including environmental claims, in the normal course of business. While it is not
possible at this time to establish the ultimate amount of liability with respect to contingent liabilities, including those related to legal proceedings, management is of the opinion that the aggregate amount of any such liabilities, for which
provision has not been made, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position.

ITEM 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
This discussion contains
certain “forward-looking statements” which are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events to differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors which may cause such differences in events include those
disclosed above under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Form 10-K. As stated elsewhere in this filing, such factors include, among other things: risk related to the
COVID-19 pandemic and its related adverse effects, conditions in the domestic automotive industry, upon which we rely for sales revenue, the intense competition in our markets, the concentration of our sales
with major customers, risks related to export sales, the price and availability of raw materials, supply chain disruptions, labor relations issues, losses related to product liability, warranty and recall claims, costs relating to environmental laws
and regulations, information systems disruptions and the loss of the services of our key employees. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements. We undertake no obligation to publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Financial results
for 2020 were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic that resulted in broad disruptions in most markets we serve. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared a Public Health Emergency
of International Concern regarding the outbreak of the novel coronavirus COVID-19. In response to the resulting pandemic, governments around the world took various preventative measures in order to control the
spread of the virus, including restricting travel, full or partial business shutdowns and implementing social distancing policies. As a result,
9
we experienced a significant drop in orders, especially during the second quarter, and the global economy was plunged into a recession. Although business conditions had improved by late in the
third quarter, the effects of the pandemic continued to impact our operations and those of our customers and suppliers. We saw further improvement in the markets we serve in the fourth quarter and recorded sales of $8,265,419 for the quarter
compared to $7,645,259 in the previous quarter and $7,186,968 in the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase in sales resulted in an improvement in net income to $464,263, or $0.48 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to a net loss of
$293,884, or $0.30 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2019. Full year net sales were $27,590,653 in 2020 compared to $32,873,002 in 2019, a decline of $5,282,349, or 16.1%. Full year net income in 2020 was $50,450, or $0.05 per share, compared to
$538,314, or $0.56 per share, in 2019.
2020 Compared to 2019
Fastener segment revenues were $7,332,308 in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to $6,286,948 reported in the relatively weak fourth quarter
of 2019, an increase of $1,045,360, or 16.6%. Fastener segment revenues for the full year were $24,607,863 in 2020 compared to $28,989,667 in 2019, a decline of $4,381,804, or 15.1%. The drop in sales in 2020 was primarily related to the COVID-19 pandemic that resulted in shutdowns of business in many parts of the world starting late in the first quarter. Those shutdowns became widespread in the second quarter as different governments struggled to
contain the spread of the virus. The automotive sector is the primary market for our fastener segment products and much of that sector was idled for an extended period of time during the second quarter when government-imposed restrictions were the
most severe. While sales to automotive customers improved in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the prior quarter and the year earlier quarter, such sales declined $2,906,738, or 15.7% for the year. Similarly, sales to non-automotive customers improved in the fourth quarter, but declined $1,475,066, or 14.1%, for the year. The rebound in sales in the fourth quarter, combined with the reduction in certain overhead expenses in the
wake of pandemic-related shutdowns, resulted in fastener segment gross margin of $1,638,836 compared to $794,076 in the year earlier quarter, an increase of $844,760. The reduction in sales for the full year was the primary factor impacting gross
margins for 2020. For the full year 2020, fastener segment gross margins were $4,170,276 compared to $4,652,353 in 2019, a decline of $482,077.
Assembly equipment segment revenues were $933,111 in the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $900,020 in the fourth quarter of 2019, an
increase of $33,091, or 3.7%. The increase was due to improved machine sales which offset declines in parts and tool sales during the quarter. For the full year 2020, assembly equipment segment revenues were $2,982,790, compared to $3,883,335
reported in 2019, a decline of $900,545, or 23.2%. The year to date decline was primarily due to the broad impact of the COVID-19 pandemic that dramatically reduced demand in the second and third quarters.
Gross margins improved in the fourth quarter of 2020 to $255,296 from $90,954 in the fourth quarter of 2019, due in part to 2020 revenue being more heavily weighted toward higher margin machine sales and due to the disposal of certain excess
inventory items in 2019. For the full year, assembly equipment segment gross margins declined, along with sales, to $744,926 from $1,092,177.
Selling and administrative expenses were $4,998,216 in 2020 compared to $5,252,946 in 2019, a decline of $254,730, or 4.8%. The decline was
primarily due to a $214,000 reduction in salaries and benefits necessitated by the pandemic and a commission expense reduction of $117,000 related to lower sales in 2020. These reductions were partially offset by consulting expenses of $124,000
related to an ERP system conversion that was completed at one of our locations during the year. As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses were 18.1% in 2020 compared to 16.0% in 2019.
10
Other income was $148,464 in 2020 compared to $191,730 in 2019. Other income is primarily
comprised of interest income which declined during the year due to lower interest rates.
The Company’s effective income tax rates
were 22.9% and 21.2% in 2020 and 2019, respectively.
DIVIDENDS
In determining to pay dividends, the Board considers current profitability, the outlook for longer-term profitability, known and potential cash
requirements and the overall financial condition of the Company. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company reduced the regular quarterly dividend from $0.22 per share to $0.10 per share. The Company
paid four regular quarterly dividends totaling $0.52 per share during 2020. On February 22, 2021, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.22 per share, restoring the dividend to the
pre-pandemic amount. This dividend will be payable March 19, 2021 to shareholders of record on March 5, 2021. This continues the uninterrupted record of consecutive quarterly dividends paid by the
Company to its shareholders that extends over 87 years.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Total capital expenditures in 2020 were $824,136. Fastener segment additions accounted for $614,835 of the total, including $410,114 for cold
heading and screw machine equipment, $97,908 for inspection equipment and $40,000 for equipment to perform secondary operations on parts. The remaining $66,813 fastener segment additions consisted of parts cleaning and loading equipment. Assembly
equipment segment additions in 2020 were $13,924 for production equipment. Investments for the benefit of both operating segments, primarily for building improvements, totaled $195,377 during 2020.
Capital expenditures during 2019 totaled $1,802,914. The fastener segment accounted for $1,522,541 of the total, including cold heading and
screw machine equipment additions of $567,963, secondary processing equipment of $631,089, quality control equipment additions of $268,468 and $46,066 for general plant equipment. The remainder of the fastener segment additions relate to technology
equipment. Assembly equipment segment additions totaled $233,697, primarily for production equipment. Additional investments of $46,676 were made in 2019 for building improvements and office equipment that benefit both operating segments.
Depreciation expense amounted to $1,347,305 in 2020 and $1,382,235 in 2019.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Working
capital at December 31, 2020 was approximately $16.6 million, an increase of $0.1 million from the beginning of the year. The net change was primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and inventory of $0.6 million and
$0.2 million, respectively, which were only partially offset by a reduction in cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit of $0.7 million. The Company’s investing activities in 2020 included the net maturities of certificates
of deposit of $1.8 million, due to the near-zero interest rates brought on in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and capital expenditures of $0.8 million. The only financing activity during 2020 was
the payment of approximately $0.5 million in dividends. The Company’s holdings in cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit amounted to $7.3 million at the end of 2020.
11
Management believes that current cash, cash equivalents and operating cash flow will be
sufficient to provide adequate working capital for the next twelve months.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has not entered into, and has no current plans to enter into, any off-balance
sheet financing arrangements.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures 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 at the date of the financial statements and the amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. A summary
of critical accounting policies can be found in Note 1 of the financial statements.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
The Company’s financial statements and financial condition were not, and are not expected to be, materially impacted by new, or proposed,
accounting standards. A summary of recent accounting pronouncements can be found in Note 1 of the financial statements.
OUTLOOK FOR 2021
After overcoming the worst period of the pandemic in the second quarter, the second half of 2020 results were more positive than those of the
year earlier period which were negatively impacted by protracted trade disputes and slowing automotive sales. While the overall results in 2020 were heavily impacted by the global pandemic, the recent introduction of vaccines to guard against the
worst effects of the virus offer hope of a return to more normal activities throughout the economy that could spur a broader economic recovery.
As we begin 2021, both our fastener segment and our assembly equipment segment have recently seen improved demand. However, both segments face
challenges in the form of higher prices for raw materials, increased wages related to a tight labor market and sporadic supply chain disruptions that started during the pandemic. These factors, as well as the uncertainties that COVID-19 still presents, are expected to continue to provide challenges in the near-term. As we face the challenges ahead, we will continue our efforts to improve operational efficiency and pursue opportunities to
develop new customer relationships and build on existing ones in all the markets we serve by emphasizing our experience, quality and customer service in a very competitive global marketplace.
While 2020 will likely be remembered for the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on everyday life, it
also marked Chicago Rivet’s 100th year in existence. Such longevity is the result of the dedicated efforts of many people over the years, who consistently worked to exceed customer
expectations related to quality, service and price. We are grateful for their contributions as well as for the loyalty of our customers and the support of our shareholders.

ITEM9A – Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
The
Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer (the Company’s principal financial officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of the
Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as that term
is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and
President, Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer (the Company’s principal financial officer), assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on the 2013 criteria
established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on this assessment, the Company’s management has concluded that the
Company’s internal controls over financial reporting are effective as of December 31, 2020.
Management’s assessment of
internal control has not been audited, as the attestation report requirement for non-accelerated filers was permanently removed from the Sarbanes-Oxley Act by Section 989C of the Dodd-Frank Act as adopted
by the SEC.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
13
There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2020 that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
