During the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, reserves associated with customer bankruptcies of $2.2 million and $11.1 million, respectively, were recorded in Aerospace Operating Profit (Loss). See Note 1 for further discussion. Aerospace Operating Profit included $3.2 million and $8.5 million in compensation expense related to the resumption of the Company’s incentive programs in the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, respectively. Aerospace Operating Profit in the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024 was negatively impacted by a $3.5 million atypical warranty reserve related to a new product launch that requires a field modification.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, $5.8 million was recognized in sales related to the reversal of a deferred revenue liability assumed with an acquisition and associated with a customer program within our Test Systems Segment which is no longer expected to occur, which also benefits Test Systems’ operating loss for the period. Test Systems Operating Loss included $0.7 million and $1.8 million in compensation expense related to the resumption of the Company’s incentive programs in the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, respectively.
Corporate expenses and other for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, includes income of $1.8 million associated with the reversal of a liability related to an equity investment, as we will no longer be required to make the associated payment. This amount is included in Other Expense (Income), Net in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Operations.
