Note 14. Fair Value (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2026

The Company categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:

•Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

•Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

•Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

There were no changes in the inputs or valuation techniques used to measure fair values during fiscal year 2026.

Financial Instrument

Level

Valuation Technique/Inputs Used

Derivative Assets: Foreign exchange contracts

Market - Based on observable market inputs using standard calculations, such as time value, forward interest rate yield curves, and current spot rates, considering counterparty credit risk

Trading securities: Mutual funds held in SERP

Market - Quoted market prices

Derivative Liabilities: Foreign exchange contracts

Market - Based on observable market inputs using standard calculations, such as time value, forward interest rate yield curves, and current spot rates adjusted for Kimball Electronics’ non-performance risk

Financial Instruments Not Carried At Fair Value:

Financial instruments that are not reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value that have carrying amounts which approximate fair value include the following:

Financial Instrument

Level

Valuation Technique/Inputs Used

Notes receivable

Market - Price approximated based on the assumed collection of receivables in the normal course of business, taking into account non-performance risk

Borrowings under credit facilities

Market - Based on observable market rates, taking into account Kimball Electronics’ non-performance risk

The carrying values of our cash deposit accounts, trade accounts receivable, and trade accounts payable approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturity and immaterial non-performance risk.
