WABASH NATIONAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Wabash National Corporation (the “Company”) have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company, its results of operations, and its cash flows. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which introduced new guidance for an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. It also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. Instruments in scope include loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, and net investments in leases as well as reinsurance and trade receivables. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, which clarifies that operating lease receivables are outside the scope of the new standard. The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach as required on January 1, 2020. The adoption of the new credit losses model did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its products when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied; this occurs with the transfer of control of our products and replacement parts or throughout the completion of service work. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer and excludes all taxes collected from the customer. Shipping and handling fees are included in Net sales and the associated costs included in Cost of sales in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For shipping and handling costs that take place after the transfer of control, the Company applies the practical expedient and treats such costs as a fulfillment cost. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. For performance obligations satisfied over time, which include certain equipment-related sales within our Diversified Products reportable segment that have no alternative use and contain an enforceable right to payment, as well as service work whereby the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided, the Company recognizes revenue on the basis of the Company’s efforts or inputs to the satisfaction of these performance obligations, measured by actual total cost incurred to the total estimated costs for each project. Total revenue recognized over time was not material to the condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

The Company has identified three separate and distinct performance obligations: 1) the sale of a trailer or equipment, 2) the sale of replacement parts, and 3) service work. For trailer, truck body, equipment, and replacement part sales, control is transferred and revenue is recognized from the sale upon shipment to or pick up by the customer in accordance with the contract terms. The Company does not have any material extended payment terms as payment is received shortly after the point of sale. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. The Company does have customers who pay for the product prior to the transfer of control which is recorded as customer deposits in Other accrued liabilities as shown in Note 10. Customer deposits are recognized as revenue when the Company performs its obligations under the contract and transfers control of the product.

4. GOODWILL IMPAIRMENT

Goodwill

As of December 31, 2019, goodwill allocated to our Commercial Trailer Products, Diversified Products (“DPG”), and Final Mile Products (“FMP”) segments was approximately $2.6 million, $140.7 million, and $167.7 million, respectively. Within the DPG segment, goodwill was allocated between the Tank Trailers and Process Systems reporting units in the amount of $98.4 million and $42.3 million, respectively.

8

The Company did not perform in-line with expectations during the first quarter of 2020, partially as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, subsequent to December 31, 2019, the Company’s share price and market capitalization declined. As a result, indicators of impairment were identified and the Company performed an interim quantitative assessment as of March 31, 2020, utilizing a combination of the income and market approaches, which were weighted evenly. The results of the quantitative analysis indicated the carrying value of the FMP and Tank Trailers reporting units exceeded their respective fair values and, accordingly, goodwill impairment charges of $95.8 million and $11.0 million, respectively, were recorded during the first quarter of 2020. The goodwill impairment charges, which are based on Level 3 fair value measurements, are included in Impairment and other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company considered whether there were any indicators of impairment during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and concluded there were none.

For the period ended June 30, 2020, the changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill were as follows (in thousands):

Senior Notes

On September 26, 2017, the Company issued Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Senior Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount of $325 million. The Senior Notes bear interest at the rate of 5.50% per annum from the date of issuance, and pay interest semi-annually in cash on April 1 and October 1 of each year. The Company used the net proceeds of $318.9 million from the sale of the Senior Notes to finance a portion of the acquisition of Supreme and to pay related fees and expenses. The Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all direct and indirect existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries, subject to certain restrictions. The Senior Notes and related guarantees are the Company’s and the guarantors’ general unsecured senior obligations and are subordinate to all of the Company’s and the guarantors’ existing and future secured debt to the extent of the assets securing that secured obligation. In addition, the Senior Notes are structurally subordinate to any existing and future debt of any of the Company’s subsidiaries that are not guarantors, to the extent of the assets of those subsidiaries. The Senior Notes will mature on October 1, 2025.

The indenture for the Senior Notes restricts the Company’s ability and the ability of certain of its subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, to: (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends or make other distributions in respect of, or repurchase or redeem, its capital stock or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits; (iii) make loans and certain investments; (iv) sell assets; (v) create or incur liens; (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates; and (vii) consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets.

The indenture for the Senior Notes contains customary events of default and covenants. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants, and while the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic are unknown at this time, the Company does not anticipate that the pandemic will impact its ability to remain in compliance with these covenants.

Contractual coupon interest expense and accretion of discount and fees for the Senior Notes was $4.6 million and $9.3 million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively, while contractual coupon interest expense and accretion of discount and fees for the Senior Notes was $4.6 million and $9.2 million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30,

10

2019, respectively. Contractual coupon interest expense and accretion of discount and fees are included in Interest expense on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Revolving Credit Agreement

On December 21, 2018, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement” or “Revolving Facility”), among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries as borrowers (together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), the lenders from time to time party thereto, Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, and Citizens Business Capital, which amended and restated the Company’s existing amended and restated revolving credit agreement, dated as of May 8, 2012.

The Revolving Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Revolver Guarantors”) and is secured by (i) first priority security interests in substantially all personal property of the Borrowers and the Revolver Guarantors, consisting of accounts receivable, inventory, cash, deposit and securities accounts and any cash or other assets in such accounts and, to the extent evidencing or otherwise related to such property, all general intangibles, licenses, intercompany debt, letter of credit rights, commercial tort claims, chattel paper, instruments, supporting obligations, documents and payment intangibles (collectively, the “Revolver Priority Collateral”), and (ii) second-priority liens on and security interests in (A) equity interests of each direct subsidiary held by the Borrowers and each Revolver Guarantor, and (B) substantially all other tangible and intangible assets of the Borrowers and the Revolver Guarantors, excluding real property (the “Term Priority Collateral”).

The Revolving Credit Agreement has a scheduled maturity date of December 21, 2023, subject to certain springing maturity events.

Under the Revolving Credit Agreement, the lenders agree to make available to the Company a $175 million revolving credit facility. The Company has the option to increase the total commitment under the facility to up to $275 million, subject to certain conditions. Subject to availability, the Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a letter of credit subfacility in an amount not in excess of $15 million, and allows for swingline loans in an amount not in excess of $17.5 million. Outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit agreement will bear interest at an annual rate, at the Borrowers’ election, equal to (i) LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% or (ii) a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75%, in each case depending upon the monthly average excess availability under the revolving loan facility. The Borrowers are required to pay a monthly unused line fee equal to 0.20% times the average daily unused availability along with other customary fees and expenses thereunder.

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains various customary covenants. In addition, the Company will be required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0 as of the end of any period of 12 fiscal months when excess availability under the Revolving Credit Agreement is less than 10% of the total revolving commitment.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, the Company drew $45.0 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement in response to the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic as a precautionary measure. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company repaid the $45.0 million in outstanding borrowings, and as of June 30, 2020 there were no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2020, and while the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic are unknown at this time, the Company does not anticipate that the pandemic will impact its ability to remain in compliance with these covenants. For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020, the Company paid approximately $0.2 million of interest under the Revolving Credit Agreement. During the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement and paid no interest. The Company’s liquidity position, defined as cash on hand and available borrowing capacity on the Revolving Credit Facility, amounted to $303.6 million as of June 30, 2020, and $308.1 million as of December 31, 2019.

Term Loan Credit Agreement

In May 2012, the Company entered into the Term Loan Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”), which provides for, among other things, (x) a senior secured term loan of $188.0 million that matures on March 19, 2022, subject to certain springing maturity events (the “Term Loans”), and (y) an uncommitted accordion feature to provide for additional senior secured term loans of up to $75 million plus an unlimited amount provided that the senior secured leverage ratio would not exceed 3.00 to 1.00, subject to certain conditions (the “Term Loan Facility”).

On November 17, 2017, the Company entered into Amendment No. 5 to the Term Loan Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 5”). As of the Amendment No. 5 date, $188.0 million of the Term Loans were outstanding. Under Amendment No. 5, the lenders agreed to provide to the Company term loans in the same aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Term Loans, which were used to refinance the outstanding Term Loans.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, and is secured by (i) first-priority liens on, and security interests in, the Term Priority Collateral, and (ii) second-priority security interests in the Revolver Priority Collateral.

11

The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains various customary covenants. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants, and while the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic are unknown at this time, the Company does not anticipate that the pandemic will impact its ability to remain in compliance with these covenants.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, under the Term Loan Credit Agreement the Company paid interest of $1.0 million and made no principal payments. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, the Company paid interest of $2.2 million and made principal payments of $15.0 million. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Company paid interest of $2.4 million and made no principal payments. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, the Company paid interest of $4.4 million and made principal payments of $15.5 million. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $135.2 million outstanding under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, of which none was classified as current on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

For each three-month period ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred charges of less than $0.1 million, and $0.1 million for each six-month period ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, for amortization of fees and original issuance discount, which is included in Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

8. FINANCIAL DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Commodity Pricing Risk

As of June 30, 2020, the Company was party to commodity swap contracts for specific commodities with notional amounts of approximately $38.4 million. The Company uses commodity swap contracts to mitigate the risks associated with fluctuations in commodity prices impacting its cash flows related to inventory purchases from suppliers. The Company does not hedge all commodity price risk.

At inception, the Company designated the commodity swap contracts as cash flow hedges. The contracts mature at specified monthly settlement dates and will be recognized into earnings through January 2021. The effective portion of the hedging transaction is recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) and transferred to earnings when the forecasted hedged transaction takes place or when the forecasted hedged transaction is no longer probable to occur.

Financial Statement Presentation

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value carrying amount of the Company’s derivative instruments were recorded as follows (in thousands):

9. LEASES

The Company records a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and lease liability for substantially all leases for which it is a lessee, in accordance with ASC 842. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has no significant lease agreements in place for which the Company is a lessor. At inception of a contract, the Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances to assess whether or not the contract represents a lease by determining whether or not the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, either explicit or implicit, for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

The Company leases certain industrial spaces, office space, land, and equipment. Some leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from generally one to 5 years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion, and are included in the lease term only to the extent such renewal options are reasonably certain of being exercised at lease commencement. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased property. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, leased assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities totaled approximately $0.6 million. As of June 30, 2020, leases that the Company has signed but have not yet commenced are immaterial.

The Company offers a limited warranty for its products with a coverage period that ranges between one and 5 years, except that the coverage period for DuraPlate^® trailer panels is 10 years. The Company passes through component manufacturers’ warranties to our customers. The Company’s policy is to accrue the estimated cost of warranty coverage at the time of the sale.

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company’s fair value measurements are based upon a three-level valuation hierarchy. These valuation techniques are based upon the transparency of inputs (observable and unobservable) to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

▪Level 1 — Valuation is based on quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

▪Level 2 — Valuation is based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for the full term of the financial instrument; and

▪Level 3 — Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation plan which is offered to senior management and other key employees. The amount owed to participants is an unfunded and unsecured general obligation of the Company. Participants are offered various investment options with which to invest the amount owed to them, and the plan administrator maintains a record of the liability owed to participants by investment. To minimize the impact of the change in market value of this liability, the Company has elected to purchase a separate portfolio of investments through the plan administrator similar to those chosen by the participant.

The investments purchased by the Company include mutual funds, which are classified as Level 1, and life-insurance contracts valued based on the performance of underlying mutual funds, which are classified as Level 2. Additionally, upon the Company’s acquisition of Supreme in 2017, the Company acquired a pool of investments made by a wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary. These investments are comprised of mutual funds, which are classified as Level 1.

The fair value of the Company’s derivatives is estimated with a market approach using third-party pricing services, which have been corroborated with data from active markets or broker quotes.

Fair value measurements and the fair value hierarchy level for the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, are shown below (in thousands):

	Frequency	Asset / (Liability)	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)	Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)	Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

Life-insurance contracts	Recurring	15,072	—	15,072	—

Estimated Fair Value of Debt

The estimated fair value of debt at June 30, 2020 consists primarily of the Senior Notes due 2025 and borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement (see Note 7). The fair value of the Senior Notes due 2025 and Term Loan Credit Agreement are based upon third party pricing sources, which generally do not represent daily market activity or represent data obtained from an exchange, and are classified as Level 2. The interest rates on the Company’s borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are adjusted regularly to reflect current market rates and thus when any amounts are outstanding carrying value approximates fair value for these borrowings.

The Company’s carrying and estimated fair value of debt at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows (in thousands):

	June 30, 2020								December 31, 2019
	Carrying Value		Fair Value						Carrying Value		Fair Value
			Level 1		Level 2		Level 3				Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Instrument
Senior Notes due 2025	$	320,902	$	—	$	292,839	$	—	$	320,572	$	—	$	320,572	$	—
Term Loan Credit Agreement	134,898		—		129,502		—		134,814		—		134,814		—
	$	455,800	$	—	$	422,341	$	—	$	455,386	$	—	$	455,386	$	—

The fair value of debt is based on current public market prices for disclosure purposes only. Unrealized gains or losses are not recognized in the financial statements as long-term debt is presented at carrying value, net of unamortized premium or discount and unamortized deferred financing costs.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As of June 30, 2020, the Company was named as a defendant or was otherwise involved in numerous legal proceedings and governmental examinations, in connection with the conduct of its business activities, in various jurisdictions, both in the United States and internationally. On the basis of information currently available to it, management does not believe that existing proceedings and investigations will have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition or liquidity if determined in a manner adverse to the Company. However, such matters are unpredictable, and we could incur judgments or enter into settlements for current or future claims that could materially and adversely affect our financial statements. Costs associated with the litigation and settlements of legal matters are reported within General and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Environmental Disputes

In August 2014, the Company received notice as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (the “DHEC”) pertaining to the Philip Services Site located in Rock Hill, South Carolina pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) and corresponding South Carolina statutes. PRPs include parties identified through manifest records as having contributed to deliveries of hazardous substances to the Philip Services Site between 1979 and 1999. The DHEC’s allegation that the Company was a PRP arises out of four manifest entries in 1989 under the name of a company unaffiliated with Wabash National (or any of its former or current subsidiaries) that purport to be delivering a de minimis amount of hazardous waste to the Philip Services Site “c/o Wabash

16

National Corporation.” As such, the Philip Services Site PRP Group (the “PRP Group”) notified Wabash in August 2014 that it was offering the Company the opportunity to resolve any liabilities associated with the Philip Services Site by entering into a Cash Out and Reopener Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the PRP Group, as well as a Consent Decree with the DHEC. The Company has accepted the offer from the PRP Group to enter into the Settlement Agreement and Consent Decree, while reserving its rights to contest its liability for any deliveries of hazardous materials to the Philips Services Site. The requested settlement payment is immaterial to the Company’s financial conditions or operations, and as a result, if the Settlement Agreement and Consent Decree are finalized, the payment to be made by the Company thereunder is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

On November 13, 2019, the Company received a notice that it was considered one of several PRP’s by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (“IDEM”) under CERCLA and state law related to substances found in soil and groundwater at a property located at 817 South Earl Avenue, Lafayette, Indiana (“the Site”). The Company has never owned or operated the Site, but the Site is near certain of the Company’s owned properties. The Company has agreed to implement a limited work plan to further investigate the source of the contamination at the Site and has worked with IDEM and other PRP’s to finalize the terms of the work plan. The Company expects to submit its initial site investigation report to IDEM during the third quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2020, based on the information available, the Company does not expect this matter to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

Chassis Converter Pool Agreements

The Company, through Supreme, obtains most vehicle chassis for its specialized vehicle products directly from the chassis manufacturers under converter pool agreements. Chassis are obtained from the manufacturers based on orders from customers, and in some cases, for unallocated orders. The agreements generally state that the manufacturer will provide a supply of chassis to be maintained at the Company’s facilities with the condition that we will store such chassis and will not move, sell, or otherwise dispose of such chassis except under the terms of the agreement. In addition, the manufacturer typically retains the sole authority to authorize commencement of work on the chassis and to make certain other decisions with respect to the chassis including the terms and pricing of sales of the chassis to the manufacturer’s dealers. The manufacturer also does not transfer the certificate of origin to the Company nor permit the Company to sell or transfer the chassis to anyone other than the manufacturer (for ultimate resale to a dealer). Although the Company is party to related finance agreements with manufacturers, the Company has not historically settled, nor expects to in the future settle, any related obligations in cash. Instead, the obligation is settled by the manufacturer upon reassignment of the chassis to an accepted dealer, and the dealer is invoiced for the chassis by the manufacturer. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2020, the Company’s outstanding chassis converter pool with the manufacturer totaled $3.5 million and has included this financing agreement on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets within Prepaid expenses and other and Other accrued liabilities. All other chassis programs through its Supreme subsidiary are handled as consigned inventory belonging to the manufacturer and totaled approximately $1.9 million. Under these agreements, if the chassis is not delivered to a customer within a specified time frame the Company is required to pay a finance or storage charge on the chassis. Additionally, the Company receives finance support funds from manufacturers when the chassis are assigned into the Company’s chassis pool. Typically, chassis are converted and delivered to customers within 90 days of the receipt of the chassis by the Company.

13. NET (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is determined based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period combined with the incremental average common shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares into common shares as of the earliest date possible. The calculation of basic and diluted net (loss) income per share is determined using net (loss) income applicable to common stockholders as the numerator and the number of shares included in the denominator as shown below (in thousands, except per share amounts). Due to the net loss applicable to common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, no securities had a dilutive impact for these periods.

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Basic net (loss) income per share:

Diluted net (loss) income per share	$	0.00	$	0.56	$	(2.01)	$	0.82

14. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company recognizes all share-based payments based upon their fair value. The Company grants restricted stock units subject to specific service, performance, and/or market conditions. The Company’s policy is to recognize expense for awards that have service conditions only subject to graded vesting using the straight-line attribution method. The fair value of service and performance based units is based on the market price of a share of underlying common stock at the date of grant. The fair value of the market based units is based on a lattice valuation model. The amount of compensation costs related to restricted stock units and performance units not yet recognized was $15.9 million at June 30, 2020, for which the expense will be recognized through 2023.

15. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Share Repurchase Program

On November 14, 2018, the Board of Directors approved the extension of the Company’s existing stock repurchase program for an additional three-year period and authorized up to an additional $100 million in repurchases. Stock repurchases under this program may be made in the open market or in private transactions at times and in amounts determined by the Company. As of June 30, 2020, $60.2 million remained available under the program.

Common and Preferred Stock

The Board of Directors has the authority to issue common and unclassed preferred stock of up to 200 million shares and 25 million shares, respectively, with par value of $0.01 per share, as well as to fix dividends, voting and conversion rights, redemption provisions, liquidation preferences and other rights and restrictions.

16. INCOME TAXES

On March 27, 2020, the United States enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Certain provisions of the legislation had a significant impact on the expected annual effective tax rate, income tax payable, and deferred income tax positions of the Company for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2020. The Company continues to evaluate the provisions of the CARES Act.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized income tax expense of $0.5 million compared to $10.6 million for the same period in the prior year. The effective tax rate for this period was 136.3% compared to 25.6% for the same period in the prior year. The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $9.0 million in the first six months of 2020 compared to expense of $13.8 million for the same period in the prior year. The effective tax rates for the first six months of 2020 and 2019 were 7.8% and 23.2%, respectively. For the first six months of 2020, these effective tax rates differ from the US Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of state and local taxes, impairment of non-deductible goodwill, provisions related to the CARES Act, and discrete items incurred related to stock-based compensation. For the first six months of 2019, these effective tax rates differ from the US Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of state and local taxes and recognition of excess tax benefits on share-based compensation.

17. LONG-LIVED ASSETS

During the second quarter of 2020, the Company sold property, plant, and equipment assets for proceeds totaling $2.7 million and recognized a net gain on sale of approximately $1.7 million. The net gain on sale is included in Impairment and other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

18. SEGMENTS

a. Segment Reporting

The Company manages its business in three segments: Commercial Trailer Products, Diversified Products, and Final Mile Products. The Commercial Trailer Products segment manufactures standard and customized van and platform trailers and other transportation related equipment for customers who purchase directly from the Company or through independent dealers. The Diversified Products segment, comprised of three strategic business units including, Tank Trailer, Process Systems and Composites, focuses on the Company’s commitment to expand its customer base, diversify its product offerings and revenues and extend its market leadership by leveraging its proprietary DuraPlate^® panel technology, drawing on its core manufacturing expertise and making available products that are complementary to truck and tank trailers and transportation equipment. The Final Mile Products segment manufactures truck bodies for customers in the final mile space.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies except that the Company evaluates segment performance based on (loss) income from operations. The Company has not allocated certain corporate related administrative costs, interest and income taxes included in the corporate and eliminations segment to the Company’s other reportable segments. The Company accounts for intersegment sales and transfers at cost plus a specified mark-up.

COVID-19 Update

In March 2020, a global pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization (“WHO”) related to COVID-19. This pandemic continues to create significant uncertainties and disruption in the global economy. We are closely monitoring the most recent developments regarding the pandemic, and we continue to remain focused on the health and safety of our employees, as well as the health of our business, both in the short and long-term. We monitor, evaluate, and manage our operating plans in light of the most recent developments on an ongoing basis. Further, we are adhering to best-practice safe hygiene guidelines by recognized health experts, like the WHO, as well as any applicable government mandates related to the COVID-19 pandemic. We remain focused on business continuity and ensuring our facilities remain operational where safe and appropriate to do so.

The safety and well-being of our employees has, and will remain, our highest priority. In early March, we assembled a pandemic response team to manage the changes necessary to adapt to the rapidly-changing environment. This response team continues to meet regularly with our senior leadership team to provide updates and continuously monitor the most recent developments. Actions we have taken to protect our employees include, but are not limited to:

▪Within our factories, we are providing personal protective equipment for our employees, conducting daily health monitoring, cleaning more frequently, and have modified our operations to embrace social distancing where possible.

▪Within our office environments, a large number of our employees remain working remotely. This allows ample space for those coming in to the office to spread out and distance effectively.

▪We are utilizing daily health screenings and self-declaration for employees, contractors, and visitors, and we are encouraging employees with symptoms to stay home. In addition, senior leadership approval is required for all travel as we are making concerted efforts to avoid “hotspots” throughout the country.

▪Suspended all Company-sponsored large events, community use of our facilities, and other forms of group gatherings involving external visitors.

▪Implemented pandemic continuity plans.

We have also extended several actions implemented to address the COVID-19 impact to our business, including a temporary freeze on share repurchases, reductions to discretionary spending, business-related travel restrictions, elimination of non-essential investments, and re-prioritization of capital expenditures (including maintaining our assets to capitalize on any economic and/or industry upswings). In addition, on May 3, 2020, we completed a two-week idling of operations and Company-wide furlough that began on April 20, 2020. We completed an additional furlough during the second quarter of 2020, which included an idling of operations from June 29, 2020 through July 3, 2020. We continue to monitor the rapidly evolving situation and guidance from international and domestic authorities, including federal, state and local public health authorities, and may take additional actions based on their requirements and recommendations.

While the global market downturn and overall impacts on our operations are expected to be temporary, the duration of the impacts cannot be estimated at this time. Should the disruptions continue for an extended period of time or worsen, the impact on our production, supply chain, and overall business could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. In addition, see “Part II, Item 1A – Risk Factors,” included herein for an update to our risk factors regarding risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth certain operating data as a percentage of net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019

Net (loss) income	0.0	%	5.0	%	(14.7)	%	4.0	%

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, we recorded net sales of $339.2 million compared to $626.1 million in the prior year period. Net sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 decreased $286.9 million, or 45.8%, compared to the prior year period, due primarily to 43.7% and 62.4% decreases in new trailer unit and truck body unit shipments, respectively, which contributed to decreases in sales within each of our reportable segments. The decreases in sales and shipments compared to the prior year period are primarily attributable to overall softer demand in the industry, which was worsened by the ongoing impacts of COVID-19, and has reduced demand for our products. Gross profit margin decreased to 10.1% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 14.0% in the prior year period driven by fixed costs as a percentage of sales increasing year-over-year. While overall industry demand during the second quarter of 2020 was softer than anticipated and expected shipment and production levels for the remainder of 2020 have decreased from 2019 estimates, we continue to believe we are well-positioned to navigate this uncertain environment as we have prepared for an eventual downturn in the industry over the last two years. We are focused on the continued pursuit to implement changes to our processes and cost structure given the current environment and have taken actions at all levels of the Company to contain cost and preserve the strength of our balance sheet.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, selling, general and administrative expenses declined $10.5 million as compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily attributable to lower employee-related costs, including employee incentive programs, partially offset by severance-related expenses, as well as lower travel and marketing-related expenses. This decrease was due, in part, to COVID-19 related items that impacted our employee incentive programs, as well as the cost containment measures we have implemented. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 7.2% in the second quarter of 2020 as compared to 5.6% in the prior year period.

Our management team continues to be focused on increasing overall stockholder value by optimizing our manufacturing operations to match the current demand environment, implementing cost savings initiatives and lean manufacturing techniques, strengthening our capital structure, developing innovative products that enable our customers to succeed, improving earnings, and continuing diversification of the business into higher margin opportunities that leverage our intellectual and process capabilities.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 Compared with the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019

Net Sales

Net sales in the second quarter of 2020 decreased $286.9 million, or 45.8%, compared to the second quarter of 2019. By business segment, prior to the elimination of intercompany sales, sales and related units sold were as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Change
	2020		2019		Amount		%
	(prior to elimination of intersegment sales)

Commercial Trailer Products	$	232,254	$	400,864	$	(168,610)	(42.1	%)
Diversified Products	63,951		97,026		(33,075)		(34.1	%)
Final Mile Products	50,832		134,817		(83,985)		(62.3	%)

Diversified Products	35		25		10		40.0	%
Total	220		25		195		780.0	%

Commercial Trailer Products segment sales, prior to the elimination of intersegment sales, were $232.3 million for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $168.6 million, or 42.1%, compared to the second quarter of 2019. New trailers shipped during the second quarter of 2020 totaled 8,000 trailers compared to 14,250 trailers in the prior year period, a decrease of 43.9%. The decrease in net sales is partially attributable to the continuing impacts of COVID-19, which have reduced demand for our products. Used trailer sales increased $2.3 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to a 185 unit increase in used trailer shipments compared to the prior year period.

Diversified Products segment sales, prior to the elimination of intersegment sales, were $64.0 million for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $33.1 million, or 34.1%, compared to the second quarter of 2019. Equipment sales decreased $5.7 million, or 31.6%, compared to the prior year period. New trailer shipments for the second quarter of 2020 totaled 400 units compared to 750 units in the prior year period. While new trailer sales decreased $21.1 million, or 42.9%, from the prior year period, revenue per new trailer unit increased approximately 2.6%. Sales of our parts and service product offerings totaled $14.3 million for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $8.5 million or 37.4% as compared to the prior year period. The decreases in our equipment sales and sales from our parts and service offerings are in part attributable to the impacts of COVID-19, which have caused reduced demand for our products.

Final Mile Products segment sales, prior to the elimination of intersegment sales, were $50.8 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $84.0 million, or 62.3%, compared to the second quarter of 2019. New truck body sales decreased $80.2 million, or 62.7%, and parts and service revenue decreased $3.8 million, or 54.5%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease in truck body sales is primarily due to a 62.5% decrease in truck body unit shipments in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year period. The overall decrease in net sales compared to the prior year period is attributable to softer demand in this market segment and decreased chassis availability from our suppliers, both of which were worsened by the impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was $304.8 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $233.6 million, or 43.4%, compared to the prior year period. Cost of sales is comprised of material costs, a variable expense, and other manufacturing costs, comprised of both fixed and variable expenses, including direct and indirect labor, outbound freight, and overhead expenses.

26

Commercial Trailer Products segment cost of sales was $209.9 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $144.1 million, or 40.7%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by an overall decrease in manufacturing costs as a result of lower sales volumes, including a $113.4 million decrease in materials costs and a $30.7 million decrease in other manufacturing costs. The lower sales volumes were due in part to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Diversified Products segment cost of sales was $53.2 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $23.7 million, or 30.8%, compared to the prior period. The decrease in cost of sales was primarily due to lower sales volumes, which resulted in lower materials costs of $15.5 million and other manufacturing costs of $8.2 million. The lower sales volumes were partially driven by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Final Mile Product segment cost of sales was $48.9 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $64.7 million, or 57.0%, compared to the prior period. The decrease was primarily driven by a $48.1 million decrease in materials costs and a $16.6 million decrease in other manufacturing costs related to decreased sales volumes. The lower sales volumes were partially attributable to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $34.3 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $53.3 million from the prior year period. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 10.1% for the second quarter of 2020, compared to 14.0% for the same period in 2019. Gross profit by segment was as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Change
	2020		2019		Amount		%
Gross Profit by Segment
Commercial Trailer Products	$	22,392	$	46,906	$	(24,514)	(52.3	%)
Diversified Products	10,761		20,123		(9,362)		(46.5	%)
Final Mile Products	1,963		21,289		(19,326)		(90.8	%)
Corporate and Eliminations	(795)		(668)		(127)
Total	$	34,321	$	87,650	$	(53,329)	(60.8	%)

Commercial Trailer Products segment gross profit was $22.4 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $46.9 million for the second quarter of 2019. Gross profit, prior to the elimination of intersegment sales, as a percentage of net sales, was 9.6% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 11.7% in the comparative 2019 period. We made purposeful efforts to mitigate lower sales volumes due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic by decreasing our fixed costs, including Company-wide furloughs, headcount reductions, and other cost containment measures. However, fixed costs did not proportionately decrease with the lower sales volumes experienced during the second quarter of 2020.

Diversified Products segment gross profit was $10.8 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $20.1 million in the same quarter of 2019. Gross profit, prior to the elimination of intersegment sales, as a percentage of net sales, was 16.8% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 20.7% in the 2019 period. While fixed costs decreased between periods as a result of our cost containment initiatives in response to COVID-19 impacts, the decreases in gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of net sales compared to the prior year period were primarily driven by certain fixed manufacturing costs that did not decrease at the same rate as the decrease in sales volumes.

Final Mile Products segment gross profit was $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $21.3 million in the same quarter of 2019. Gross profit, prior to the elimination of intersegment sales, as a percentage of net sales, was 3.9% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 15.8% in the 2019 period. Similar to the two segments above, the decreases in gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of net sales were primarily attributable to manufacturing costs not proportionately decreasing with the decrease in sales volumes.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2020 decreased $6.9 million, or 25.9%, from the prior year period. The decrease from the prior year period was largely due to a decrease of approximately $5.2 million in employee-related costs, including benefits and incentive programs, partially offset by an increase in severance-related expense. Additional decreases were attributable to lower professional service expenses and travel-related costs. These overall decreases were due in part to the impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and our implementation of cost containment measures. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses were 5.8% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 4.2% for the second quarter of 2019.

27

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses were $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $3.6 million, or 42.5%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was due to a decrease of approximately $2.3 million in employee-related costs, including benefits and incentive programs. Additional decreases relate to lower travel-related costs and advertising and promotion expenses. These overall decreases were due in part to the impacts of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic and our implementation of cost containment measures. As a percentage of net sales, selling expenses were 1.4% for both the second quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019.

Amortization of Intangibles

Amortization of intangibles was $5.5 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $5.1 million in the prior year period. Amortization of intangibles for both periods was the result of expenses recognized for intangible assets recorded from the acquisitions of Walker in May 2012, certain assets of Beall in February 2013, and Supreme in September 2017.

Impairment and Other, Net

Impairment and other, net of $(1.7) million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $0.0 million in the second quarter of 2019 relates to the net gain on sale of property, plant, and equipment assets for proceeds totaling $2.7 million. We recognized a net gain on sale of approximately $1.7 million, which is included in Impairment and other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest expense for the second quarter of 2020 totaled $5.9 million compared to $7.0 million in the second quarter of 2019. Interest expense relates to interest and non-cash accretion charges on our Term Loan Credit Agreement, Senior Notes, and Revolving Credit Agreement. The decrease from the prior year period is primarily due to our voluntary prepayments totaling approximately $50.0 million against our Term Loan Credit Agreement throughout 2019 and the significant decrease in LIBOR between periods.

Other, net for the second quarter of 2020 represented income of $0.3 million as compared to income of $1.1 million for the prior year period. Income for the current year and prior year period is primarily related to interest income.

Income Taxes

We recognized income tax expense of $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $10.6 million for the same period in the prior year. The effective tax rate for this period was 136.3% compared to 25.6% for the same period in the prior year. Certain provisions of the CARES Act had a significant impact on the expected annual effective tax rate, income tax payable, and deferred income tax positions of the Company for the three months ended June 30, 2020. For the second quarter of 2020, these effective tax rates differ from the US Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of state and local taxes, provisions related to the CARES Act, and discrete items incurred related to stock-based compensation. For the second quarter of 2019, these effective tax rates differ from the US Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of state and local taxes and recognition of excess tax benefits on share-based compensation.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Compared with the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Net Sales

Net sales in the first six months of 2020 decreased $433.0 million, or 37.4%, compared to the first six months of 2019. By business segment, prior to the elimination of intercompany sales, sales and related units sold were as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,				Change
	2020		2019		Amount		%
	(prior to elimination of intersegment sales)

Commercial Trailer Products segment sales prior to the elimination of intersegment sales were $483.2 million for the first six months of 2020, a decrease of $258.7 million, or 34.9%, compared to the first six months of 2019. Trailers shipped during the first six months of 2020 totaled 16,525 trailers compared to 26,650 trailers in the prior year period, a 38.0% decrease. The decrease in net sales is partially attributable to the ongoing impacts of COVID-19, which have reduced demand for our products. Despite these headwinds, revenue per new trailer unit increased approximately 3.4% compared to the prior year period. Parts and service revenue for the six-month period of 2020 totaled $18.8 million, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 6.4%, from the prior year period. Used trailer sales increased $2.4 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to a 170 unit increase in used trailer shipments in the first six months of 2020 compared to the prior year period.

Diversified Products segment sales prior to the elimination of intersegment sales were $146.9 million for the first six months of 2020, a decrease of $49.8 million, or 25.3%, compared to the same period of 2019. Trailers shipped during the first six months of 2020 totaled 1,050 trailers compared to 1,450 trailers in the prior year period, a 27.6% decrease. The decrease in new trailer shipments compared to the prior year period resulted in a $23.6 million decrease in sales. However, revenue per new trailer unit in the current year period increased approximately 6.4%. Compared to the prior year period, equipment sales decreased $10.7 million, or 30.3%, while parts and service sales decreased $18.0 million, or 35.1%. The decreases in sales in this market segment are in part attributable to the ongoing impacts of COVID-19, which have caused reduced demand for our products.

Final Mile Products segment sales, prior to the elimination of intersegment sales, were $111.1 million for the first six months of 2020, a decrease of $124.6 million, or 52.9% from the first six months of 2019. Decreased truck body unit shipments of 54.3% drove a $120.0 million decrease in new truck body sales compared to the prior year period. The overall decrease in net sales compared to the prior year period is attributable to softer demand in this market segment and decreased chassis availability from our suppliers, both of which were worsened by the impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was $655.2 million in the first six months of 2020, a decrease of $347.7 million, or 34.7%, compared to the prior year period. Cost of sales is comprised of material costs, a variable expense, and other manufacturing costs, comprised of both fixed and variable expenses, including direct and indirect labor, outbound freight, and overhead expenses.

Commercial Trailer Products segment cost of sales was $437.0 million in the first six months of 2020, a decrease of $222.0 million, or 33.7%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by an overall decrease in

29

manufacturing costs as a result of lower sales volumes, including a $177.6 million decrease in materials costs and a $44.5 million decrease in other manufacturing costs. The lower sales volumes were due in part to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Diversified Products segment cost of sales was $121.0 million in the first six months of 2020, a decrease of $35.4 million, or 22.7%, compared to the prior period. Driven by lower sales volumes partially attributable to the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the decrease in cost of sales from the prior year period was primarily due to a decrease in materials costs of $23.6 million and a decrease in other manufacturing costs totaling $11.9 million.

Final Mile Product segment cost of sales was $109.4 million in the first six months of 2020, a decrease of $91.5 million, or 45.5%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was driven by a $68.5 million decrease in materials costs and a $23.0 million decrease in other manufacturing costs related to decreased sales volumes; however, the decrease in cost of sales was not proportionate to the decrease in sales volumes. The lower sales volumes were due in part to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $71.1 million in the first six months of 2020, a decrease of $85.3 million from the prior year period. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 9.8% for the first six months, compared to 13.5% during the same period in 2019. Gross profit by segment was as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,				Change
	2020		2019		$		%
Gross Profit by Segment
Commercial Trailer Products	$	46,235	$	82,846	$	(36,611)	(44.2)	%
Diversified Products	25,902		40,222		(14,320)		(35.6)	%
Final Mile Products	1,719		34,813		(33,094)		(95.1)	%
Corporate	(2,792)		(1,541)		(1,251)
Total	$	71,064	$	156,340	$	(85,276)	(54.5)	%

Commercial Trailer Products segment gross profit was $46.2 million for the first six months of 2020 compared to $82.8 million for the prior year period. Gross profit prior to the elimination of intersegment sales, as a percentage of net sales, was 9.6% in 2020 compared to 11.2% in the prior period. We made purposeful efforts to mitigate lower sales volumes due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic by decreasing our fixed costs, including Company-wide furloughs, headcount reductions, and other cost containment measures. However, fixed costs did not proportionately decrease with the lower sales volumes experienced during the first six months of 2020 compared to the prior year period.

Diversified Products segment gross profit was $25.9 million for the first six months of 2020 compared to $40.2 million in the same period of 2019. Gross profit prior to the elimination of intersegment sales, as a percentage of net sales, was 17.6% in the 2020 period compared to 20.5% in the prior period. While fixed costs decreased between periods as a result of our cost containment initiatives in response to COVID-19 impacts, the decreases in gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of net sales compared to the prior year period were primarily driven by certain fixed manufacturing costs that did not decrease at the same rate as the decrease in sales volumes.

Final Mile Products segment gross profit was $1.7 million for the first six months of 2020 compared to $34.8 million in the same period of 2019. Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, was 1.5% in the first six months of 2020, compared to 14.8% in the prior year period. Similar to the two segments above, the decreases in gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of net sales were primarily attributable to manufacturing costs not proportionately decreasing with the decrease in sales volumes.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the first six months of 2020 decreased $10.8 million, or 19.1%, from the prior year period. The decrease from the prior year period was largely due to a decrease of approximately $6.3 million in employee-related costs, including benefits and incentive programs, partially offset by an increase in severance-related expense. Additional decreases were attributable to lower professional service expenses and travel-related costs. These overall decreases were due in part to the impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and our implementation of cost containment measures. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses were 6.3% for the 2020 period as compared to 4.9% for the same period of 2019.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses were $12.9 million in the first six months of 2020, a decrease of $3.8 million, or 22.9%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was due to a decrease of approximately $2.9 million in employee-related costs, including benefits and incentive programs, and a decrease in travel-related costs. These overall decreases were due in part to the impacts of the

30

ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and our implementation of cost containment measures. As a percentage of net sales, selling expenses were 1.8% for the 2020 period which is consistent with the same period of 2019.

Amortization of Intangibles

Amortization of intangibles was $11.0 million for the first six months of 2020 compared to $10.2 million in the prior year period. Amortization of intangibles for both periods was the result of expenses recognized for intangible assets recorded from the acquisitions of Walker in May 2012, certain assets of Beall in February 2013, and Supreme in September 2017.

Impairment and Other, Net

Impairment and other, net of $105.4 million during the first six months of 2020 compared to $0.0 million in the same period in 2019 was primarily the result of impairment charges related to goodwill within the Final Mile Products and Diversified Products segments totaling $106.8 million during the first quarter of 2020. These impairment charges were partially offset by the net gain on sale of property, plant, and equipment assets during the second quarter of 2020.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest expense for the first six months of 2020 totaled $12.2 million compared to $14.1 million in the prior year period. Interest expense relates to interest and non-cash accretion charges on our Term Loan Credit Agreement, Senior Notes, and Revolving Credit Agreement. The decrease from the previous year period is primarily due to our voluntary prepayments totaling approximately $50.0 million against our Term Loan Credit Agreement throughout 2019 and the significant decrease in LIBOR between periods.

Other, net for the first six months of 2020 represented income of $0.4 million as compared to income of $0.9 million for the prior year period. Income for both the current and prior year is primarily related to interest income.

Income Taxes

The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $9.0 million in the first six months of 2020 compared to expense of $13.8 million for the same period in the prior year. The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2020 and 2019 were 7.8% and 23.2%, respectively. Certain provisions of the CARES Act had a significant impact on the expected annual effective tax rate, income tax payable, and deferred income tax positions of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2020. For the first first six months of 2020, these effective tax rates differ from the US Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of state and local taxes, impairment of non-deductible goodwill, provisions related to the CARES Act, and discrete items incurred related to stock-based compensation. For the first six months of 2019, these effective tax rates differ from the US Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of state and local taxes and recognition of excess tax benefits on share-based compensation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital Structure

Our capital structure is comprised of a mix of debt and equity. As of June 30, 2020, our debt to equity ratio, including our finance lease obligations, was approximately 1.2:1.0. Our long-term objective is to generate operating cash flows sufficient to support the growth within our businesses and increase shareholder value. This objective will be achieved through a balanced capital allocation strategy of maintaining strong liquidity, deleveraging our balance sheet, investing in the business, both organically and strategically, and returning capital to our shareholders.

During the first six months of 2020, we paid dividends of approximately $8.7 million, and during the first quarter of 2020, we repurchased shares under our share repurchase program totaling $8.9 million. In addition, as a result of uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we drew $45.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility during the first quarter of 2020. During the second quarter of 2020, we repaid the $45.0 million in outstanding borrowings, and as of June 30, 2020 we had no amounts outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Despite the uncertainty caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we believe we are well-positioned from a liquidity perspective as we have prepared for an eventual downturn in our industry over the last two years, and we believe we have sufficient liquidity to meet our cash obligations for at least the next 12 months. Our liquidity position, defined as cash on hand and available borrowing capacity on the Revolving Credit Facility, amounted to $303.6 million as of June 30, 2020, an increase of 9.5% compared to $277.2 million as of March 31, 2020 and a slight decrease from $308.1 million as of December 31, 2019. In addition, the nearest debt maturity we have is not until 2022. While the severity and duration of the impacts of COVID-19 remain unknown, we expect to continue our commitment to fund our working capital requirements and capital expenditures, including maintaining our assets to capitalize on any economic and/or industry upswings, while also responsibly returning capital to our shareholders. For the remainder of 2020, we will continue to move rapidly to adjust to the current environment to contain cost and preserve the strength of our balance sheet while prioritizing the safety of our employees and ensuring the liquidity and financial well-being of the Company.

Debt Agreements and Related Amendments

Senior Notes

On September 26, 2017, we issued Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Senior Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount of $325 million. The Senior Notes bear interest at the rate of 5.50% per annum from the date of issuance, and will pay interest semi-annually in cash on April 1 and October 1 of each year. We used the net proceeds of $318.9 million from the sale of the Senior Notes to finance a portion of the acquisition of Supreme and to pay related fees and expenses. The Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of our direct and indirect existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries, subject to certain restrictions. The Senior Notes and related guarantees are our and our guarantors’ general unsecured senior obligations and are subordinate to all of our and our guarantors’ existing and future secured debt to the extent of the assets securing that secured obligation. In addition, the Senior Notes are structurally subordinate to any of existing and future debt of any of our subsidiaries that are not guarantors, to the extent of the assets of those subsidiaries. The Senior Notes will mature on October 1, 2025.

The indenture for the Senior Notes restricts our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, to: (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends or make other distributions in respect of, or repurchase or redeem, our capital stock or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, our profits; (iii) make loans and certain investments; (iv) sell assets; (v) create or incur liens; (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates; and (vii) consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets.

The indenture for the Senior Notes contains customary events of default, including payment defaults, breaches of covenants, failure to pay certain judgments and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization. As of June 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all covenants, and while the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic are unknown at this time, we do not anticipate that the pandemic will impact our ability to remain in compliance with these covenants.

Contractual coupon interest expense and accretion of discount and fees for the Senior Notes was $4.6 million for each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Contractual coupon interest expense and accretion of discount and fees for the Senior Notes was $9.3 million and $9.2 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Contractual coupon interest expense and accretion of discount and fees are included in Interest expense on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Revolving Credit Agreement

On December 21, 2018, we entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), among us, certain of our subsidiaries as borrowers (together with us, the “Borrowers”), the lenders from time to

32

time party thereto, Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC and Citizens Business Capital, which amended and restated our existing amended and restated revolving credit agreement, dated as of May 8, 2012.

The Revolving Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries (the “Revolver Guarantors”) and is secured by (i) first priority security interests in substantially all personal property of the Borrowers and the Revolver Guarantors, consisting of accounts receivable, inventory, cash, deposit and securities accounts and any cash or other assets in such accounts and, to the extent evidencing or otherwise related to such property, all general intangibles, licenses, intercompany debt, letter of credit rights, commercial tort claims, chattel paper, instruments, supporting obligations, documents and payment intangibles (collectively, the “Revolver Priority Collateral”), and (ii) second-priority liens on and security interests in (A) equity interests of each direct subsidiary held by the Borrowers and each Revolver Guarantors, and (B) substantially all other tangible and intangible assets of the Borrowers and the Revolver Guarantors, excluding real property (the “Term Priority Collateral”).

The Revolving Credit Agreement has a scheduled maturity date of December 21, 2023, subject to certain springing maturity events.

Under the Revolving Credit Agreement, the lenders agree to make available to us a $175 million revolving credit facility. We have the option to increase the total commitment under the facility to up to $275 million, subject to certain conditions. Subject to availability, the Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a letter of credit subfacility in an amount not in excess of $15 million, and allows for swingline loans in an amount not in excess of $17.5 million. Outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit agreement bear interest at an annual rate, at the Borrowers’ election, equal to (i) LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% or (ii) a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75%, in each case depending upon the monthly average excess availability under the revolving loan facility. The Borrowers are required to pay a monthly unused line fee equal to 0.20% times the average daily unused availability along with other customary fees and expenses thereunder.

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary covenants limiting our ability and certain of our affiliates to, among other things, pay cash dividends, incur debt or liens, redeem or repurchase stock, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge, dissolve, repay subordinated indebtedness, make investments and dispose of assets. In addition, we will be required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0 as of the end of any period of 12 fiscal months (commencing with the month ending December 31, 2018) when excess availability under the Revolving Credit Agreement is less than 10% of the total revolving commitment.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, we drew $45.0 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement in response to the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic as a precautionary measure. During the second quarter of 2020, we repaid the $45.0 million in outstanding borrowings, and as of June 30, 2020, there were no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. We were in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2020, and while the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic are unknown at this time, we do not anticipate that the pandemic will impact our ability to remain in compliance with these covenants. For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020, under the Revolving Credit Agreement, we paid approximately $0.2 million of interest. During the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement and paid no interest. Our liquidity position, defined as cash on hand and available borrowing capacity on the Revolving Credit Facility, amounted to $303.6 million as of June 30, 2020, and $308.1 million as of December 31, 2019.

Term Loan Credit Agreement

In May 2012, we entered into the Term Loan Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”), which provides for, among other things, (x) a senior secured term loan of $188.0 million that matures on March 19, 2022, subject to certain springing maturity events (the “Term Loans”), and (y) an uncommitted accordion feature to provide for additional senior secured term loans of up to $75 million plus an unlimited amount provided that the senior secured leverage ratio would not exceed 3.00 to 1.00, subject to certain conditions (the “Term Loan Facility”).

On November 17, 2017, we entered into Amendment No. 5 to the Term Loan Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 5”). As of the Amendment No. 5 date, $188.0 million of the Term Loans were outstanding. Under Amendment No. 5, the lenders agreed to provide us term loans in the same aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Term Loans, which were used to refinance the outstanding Term Loans.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries, and is secured by (i) first-priority liens on, and security interests in, the Term Priority Collateral and (ii) second-priority security interests in the Revolver Priority Collateral.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains customary covenants limiting our ability to, among other things, pay cash dividends, incur debt or liens, redeem or repurchase stock, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge, dissolve, pay off subordinated indebtedness, make investments and dispose of assets. As of June 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all covenants, and while the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic are unknown at this time, we do not anticipate that the pandemic will impact our ability to remain in compliance with these covenants.

33

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, under the Term Loan Credit Agreement we paid interest of $1.0 million and made no principal payments. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, we paid interest of $2.2 million and made principal payments of $15.0 million. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, we paid interest of $2.4 million and made no principal payments. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, we paid interest of $4.4 million and made principal payments of $15.5 million. As of June 30, 2020, we had $135.2 million outstanding under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, of which none was classified as current on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

For each three-month period ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we incurred charges of less than $0.1 million, and $0.1 million for each six-month period ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, for amortization of fees and original issuance discount, which is included in Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Cash Flows

Cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of 2020 totaled $22.7 million, compared to $61.0 million during the same period in 2019. Cash provided by operations during the current year period was the result of net loss adjusted for various non-cash activities including depreciation, amortization, net gain on the sale of assets, deferred taxes, stock-based compensation, impairment, accretion of debt discount, and a $4.3 million decrease in working capital. Changes in key working capital accounts for 2020 and 2019 are summarized below (in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2020		2019		Change
Source (Use) of cash:
Accounts receivable	$	48,785	$	10,886	$	37,899
Inventories	(14,154)		(80,163)		66,009
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	(22,126)		58,210		(80,336)
Net source (use) of cash	$	12,505	$	(11,067)	$	23,572

Accounts receivable decreased $48.8 million in the first six months of 2020 as compared to a $10.9 million decrease in the prior year period. Days sales outstanding, a measure of working capital efficiency that measures the amount of time a receivable is outstanding, was 33 days in 2020 as compared to 25 days in the same period in 2019. The decrease in accounts receivable during the first six months of 2020 was primarily due to the decrease in shipments from the prior year period, which is partially attributable to impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Inventory increased by $14.2 million during the first six months of 2020 as compared to an increase of $80.2 million in the 2019 period. Our inventory turns, a commonly used measure of working capital efficiency that measures how quickly inventory turns per year, was approximately 7 times in the 2020 period and 8 times in the 2019 period. The increase in inventory for the 2020 period was primarily attributable to higher finished goods inventory due to slower customer pick-ups and higher raw materials inventory to adjust to anticipated production. Both of these increases are partially attributable to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased by $22.1 million in 2020 compared to an increase of $58.2 million for the same period in 2019. Days payable outstanding, a measure of working capital efficiency that measures the amount of time a payable is outstanding, was 37 days in the 2020 period compared to 34 days during the same period in 2019.

Investing activities used $8.2 million during the first six months of 2020, as compared to $15.0 million during the same period in 2019. Investing activities for the first six months of 2020 include capital expenditures of $10.9 million, which was a decrease compared to $15.0 million during the same period in 2019. For the first six months of 2020, investing activities also includes proceeds from the sale of property, plant, and equipment of $2.7 million.

Financing activities used $19.0 million during the first six months of 2020 as compared to using $38.6 million during the same period in 2019. Cash used by financing activities during the current year period primarily relates to common stock repurchases and withholdings of $10.1 million and cash dividends paid to our shareholders of $8.7 million. Cash used in financing activities in the first six months of 2019 primarily relates to principal payments under the term loan credit facility of $15.5 million, common stock repurchases and withholdings of $13.9 million, and cash dividends paid to our shareholders of $9.1 million.

34

As of June 30, 2020, our liquidity position, defined as cash on hand and available borrowing capacity, amounted to $303.6 million, representing a decrease of $3.8 million compared to June 30, 2019 and a decrease of $4.5 million compared to December 31, 2019. Total debt and finance lease obligations amounted to $460.8 million as of June 30, 2020. While we believe there is continued uncertainty in the industry due in part to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we believe we are well-positioned from a liquidity perspective as we have prepared for an eventual downturn in our industry over the last two years, and we believe we have sufficient liquidity to meet our cash obligations for at least the next 12 months. While the severity and duration of the impacts of COVID-19 remain unknown, we expect to continue our commitment to fund our working capital requirements and capital expenditures, including maintaining our assets to capitalize on any economic and/or industry upswings, while also responsibly returning capital to our shareholders. For the remainder of 2020, we will continue to move rapidly to adjust to the current environment to contain cost and preserve the strength of our balance sheet while prioritizing the safety of our employees and ensuring the liquidity and financial well-being of the Company.

Capital Expenditures

Capital spending amounted to approximately $10.9 million for the first six months of 2020 and, depending upon the duration and severity of COVID-19 impacts, is anticipated to be approximately $20 million for 2020. Capital spending for 2020 has been and is expected to continue to be primarily utilized to support maintenance, growth, and productivity improvement initiatives within our facilities.

Goodwill Impairment

We assess goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis as of October 1 and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate a possible impairment. Subsequent to December 31, 2019, our share price and market capitalization declined. In addition, as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and related impact on our results of operations, the Company did not perform in-line with expectations. As a result, indicators of impairment were identified and we performed an interim quantitative assessment as of March 31, 2020, utilizing a combination of the income and market approaches, which were weighted evenly. Key assumptions used in the analysis were discount rates of 17.0% and 13.5% for FMP and Tank Trailers, respectively, EBITDA margins, and a terminal growth rate of 3.0%. The results of the quantitative analysis indicated the carrying value of the FMP and Tank Trailers reporting units exceeded their fair values and, accordingly, goodwill impairment charges of $95.8 million and $11.0 million, respectively, were recorded during the first quarter of 2020. The goodwill impairment charges, which are based on Level 3 fair value measurements, are included in Impairment and other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In addition, the results of the quantitative analysis performed as of March 31, 2020 indicated the fair value of the Process Systems reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by approximately 3%. Key assumptions used in the analysis were a discount rate of 14.5%, EBITDA margin, and a terminal growth rate of 3.0%. The Process Systems reporting unit designs and manufactures a broad range of products, such as isolators, stationary silos, and downflow booths used in a number of unique markets, including the chemical, dairy, food and beverage, pharmaceutical and nuclear markets. We believe this reporting unit’s broad range of innovative products in unique industries will result in sufficient future earnings. Based on the results of the interim quantitative test, we performed sensitivity analyses around the key assumptions used in the analysis, the results of which were: (a) a 100 basis point decrease in the EBITDA margin used to determine expected future cash flows would have resulted in an impairment of approximately $4.6 million, (b) a 100 basis point increase in the discount rate would have resulted in an impairment of approximately $4.5 million, and (c) a 100 basis point decrease in the terminal growth rate would have resulted in an impairment of approximately $1.2 million.

Future events and changing market conditions may require a re-evaluation of the assumptions used in the determination of fair value for each of our reporting units, including key assumptions used in the expected EBITDA margins and cash flows, as well as other key assumptions with respect to matters out of our control, such as discount rates and market multiple comparables.

We considered whether there were any indicators of impairment during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and concluded there were none.

Scheduled payments for our Term Loan Credit Agreement, as amended, exclude interest payments as rates are variable. Borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, as amended, bear interest at a variable rate, at our election, equal to (i) LIBOR (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus a margin of 2.25% or (ii) a base rate plus a margin of 1.25%. The Term Loan Credit Agreement matures in March 2022, subject to certain springing maturity events.

Scheduled payments for our Revolving Facility exclude interest payments as rates are variable. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility bear interest at a variable rate based on the London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR) or a base rate determined by the lender’s prime rate plus an applicable margin, as defined in the agreement. Outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility bear interest at a rate, at our election, equal to (i) LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% or (ii) a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75%, in each case depending upon the monthly average excess availability under the Revolving Facility. We are required to pay a monthly unused line fee equal to 0.20% times the average daily unused availability along with other customary fees and expenses of our agent and lenders. As a result of uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we drew $45.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility during the first quarter of 2020. During the second quarter of 2020, we repaid the $45.0 million in outstanding borrowings, and as of June 30, 2020 we had no amounts outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Scheduled payments for our Senior Notes exclude interest payments. The Notes bear interest at the rate of 5.5% per annum from the date of issuance, payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1.

Finance leases represent future minimum lease payments including interest. Operating leases represent the total future minimum lease payments.

We have standby letters of credit totaling $7.4 million issued in connection with workers compensation claims and surety bonds.

We have $40.2 million in purchase commitments with our suppliers and through financial derivatives through December 2020 for various raw material commodities, including aluminum, steel, nickel and polyethylene as well as other raw material components which are within normal production requirements.

We, through our subsidiary Supreme, obtain most vehicle chassis for our specialized vehicle products directly from the chassis manufacturers under converter pool agreements. Chassis are obtained from the manufacturers based on orders from customers, and to a lesser extent, for unallocated orders. Although each manufacturer’s agreement has different terms and conditions, the agreements generally state that the manufacturer will provide a supply of chassis to be maintained from time to time at our various facilities with the condition that we will store such chassis and will not move, sell, or otherwise dispose of such chassis except under the terms of the agreement. The manufacturer transfers the chassis to us on a “restricted basis,” retaining the sole authority to authorize commencement of work on the chassis and to make certain other decisions with respect to the chassis including the terms and pricing of sales of the chassis to the manufacturer’s dealers. The manufacturer also does not transfer the certificate of origin to us nor permit us to sell or transfer the chassis to anyone other than the manufacturer (for ultimate resale to a dealer). Although we are party to related finance agreements with manufacturers, we have not historically settled, nor expect to in the future settle, any related obligations in cash. Instead, the obligation is settled by the manufacturer upon reassignment of the chassis to an accepted dealer, and the dealer is invoiced for the chassis by the manufacturer. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2020 our

36

outstanding chassis converter pool with the manufacturer totaled $3.5 million and we have included this financing agreement on our consolidated balance sheets within Prepaid expenses and other and Other accrued liabilities. All other chassis programs through our Supreme subsidiary are handled as consigned inventory belonging to the manufacturer and totaled approximately $1.9 million. Under these agreements, if the chassis is not delivered to a customer within a specified time frame we are required to pay a finance or storage charge on the chassis. Additionally, we receive finance support funds from the manufacturer when the chassis are assigned into our chassis pool. Typically, chassis are converted and delivered to customers within 90 days of the receipt of the chassis.

Backlog

Orders that have been confirmed by customers in writing, have defined delivery time frames, and can be produced during the next 18 months are included in our backlog. Orders that comprise our backlog may be subject to changes in quantities, delivery, specifications, terms or cancellation. Our backlog of orders was approximately $0.8 billion at June 30, 2020 compared to approximately $1.1 billion at December 31, 2019 and $1.2 billion at June 30, 2019. As we disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, the order season for 2020 materialized in a manner more consistent with historical periods, excluding 2018. In addition, while we have observed softer demand thus far in 2020 compared to 2018 and 2019 partially due to the impacts and uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe our backlog of orders remains strong. We expect to complete the majority of our backlog orders as of June 30, 2020 within 12 months of this date.

Outlook

The trailer industry generally follows the transportation industry’s cycles. After three consecutive years with total trailer demand well below normal replacement demand levels estimated to be approximately 220,000 trailers, the five year period ending December 2015 demonstrated consecutive years of significant improvement in which the total U.S. trailer market increased year-over-year. In 2016, trailer shipments decreased but rebounded in 2017 and 2018, with 2018 representing an all-time industry record. This all-time industry record set in 2018 was surpassed during 2019 with trailer shipments totaling approximately 328,000. According to ACT Research Company (“ACT”), total trailer production in the United States was approximately 333,000 during 2019. As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, ACT estimated for decreased 2020 production to approximately 239,000 trailers due to softened demand. This expected production level is at more historically consistent levels within the trailer industry.

As a result of overall industry and economic uncertainty worsened by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, in April 2020 ACT issued a revised estimate for 2020 trailer production in the United States of approximately 146,000 trailers, representing a decrease of 56% from 2019. As of July 2020, the latest estimate from ACT for 2020 trailer production is 177,050, which is a 21.3% increase from the April 2020 estimate. ACT estimates production levels for 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 to increase from 2020 levels to 210,600, 253,000, 288,400, and 281,300, respectively. In April 2020, FTR Associates (“FTR”) anticipated new trailer production to be approximately 155,000 new trailers in 2020, representing a decrease of 53% compared to 2019, with projected production levels to increase to 260,000 and 265,000 in 2021 and 2022, respectively. In July 2020, FTR revised these estimates to be approximately 189,000 new trailers in 2020, a 21.9% increase from the April 2020 estimate, with projected production levels to increase to 210,000 and 270,000 in 2021 and 2022, respectively.

These estimates from ACT and FTR for the next several years are generally expected to be above replacement demand. While we believe these estimates to generally be reasonable, the unknown duration and severity of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic creates further uncertainty in the industry and actual production and/or demand could vary significantly from these estimates.

Other potential risks we face for the remainder of 2020 will primarily relate to our ability to effectively manage our manufacturing operations and overall business given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as well as the cost and supply of raw materials, commodities, and components. Significant increases in the cost of certain commodities, raw materials or components have had and may continue to have an adverse effect on our results of operations. As has been our practice, we will endeavor to pass raw material and component price increases to our customers in addition to continuing our cost management and hedging activities in an effort to minimize the risk changes in material costs could have on our operating results. In addition, we rely on a limited number of suppliers for certain key components and raw materials in the manufacturing of our products, including tires, axles, suspensions, aluminum extrusions, specialty steel coil, and chassis. At the current and expected demand levels, there may be shortages of supplies of raw materials or components which would have an adverse impact on our ability to meet demand for our products.

37

For the remainder of 2020, we will continue to move rapidly to adjust to the current environment to contain cost and preserve the strength of our balance sheet while prioritizing the safety of our employees and ensuring the liquidity and financial well-being of the Company. We believe we remain well-positioned for long-term success in the trailer industry because: (1) our core customers are among the major participants in the trucking industry; (2) our DuraPlate^® and other industry leading brand trailers continue to have a strong market acceptance; (3) our focus is on developing solutions that reduce our customers’ trailer maintenance and operating costs providing the best overall value; and (4) our presence throughout North America utilizing our extensive dealer network to market and sell our products. Continuing to identify attractive opportunities to leverage our core competencies, proprietary technology, and core manufacturing expertise into new applications and end markets enables us to deliver greater value to our customers and stakeholders.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We have included a summary of our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. There have been no material changes to the summary provided in that report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

In addition to the risks inherent in our operations, we have exposure to financial and market risk resulting from volatility in commodity prices, interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The following discussion provides additional detail regarding our exposure to these risks.

Commodity Prices

We are exposed to fluctuation in commodity prices through the purchase of various raw materials that are processed from commodities such as aluminum, steel, lumber, nickel, copper and polyethylene. Given the volatility of certain commodity prices, this exposure can significantly impact product costs. We manage some of our commodity price changes by entering into fixed price contracts with our suppliers and through financial derivatives. As of June 30, 2020, we had $40.2 million in raw material purchase commitments through December 2020 for materials that will be used in the production process, as compared to $83.9 million as of December 31, 2019. We typically do not set prices for our products more than 45-90 days in advance of our commodity purchases and can, subject to competitive market conditions, take into account the cost of the commodity in setting our prices for each order. To the extent that we are unable to offset the increased commodity costs in our product prices, our results would be materially and adversely affected.

Interest Rates

As a result of uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we drew $45.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility during the first quarter of 2020. During the second quarter of 2020, we repaid the $45.0 million in outstanding borrowings, and as of June 30, 2020 we had no floating rate debt outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility. In addition, as of June 30, 2020, we had outstanding borrowings under our Term Loan Credit Agreement, as amended, totaling approximately $135.2 million that bears interest at a floating rate, subject to a minimum interest rate. Based on any current borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and the outstanding indebtedness under our Term Loan Credit Agreement, a hypothetical 100 basis-point change in the floating interest rate would result in a corresponding change in interest expense over a one-year period of approximately $1.4 million. This sensitivity analysis does not account for the change in the competitive environment indirectly related to the change in interest rates and the potential managerial action taken in response to these changes.

Foreign Exchange Rates

We are subject to fluctuations in the British pound sterling and Mexican peso exchange rates that impact transactions with our foreign subsidiaries, as well as U.S. denominated transactions between these foreign subsidiaries and unrelated parties. A ten percent change in the British pound sterling or Mexican peso exchange rates would have an immaterial impact on results of operations. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) were effective as of June 30, 2020.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

See Item 3 of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. See also Note 12, “Commitments and Contingencies”, to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 including those under the heading “Risk Factors” appearing in Item 1A of Part I of the Form 10-K and other information contained in this Quarterly Report before investing in our securities. Realization of any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

The Company is supplementing the Risk Factors previously disclosed in Item 1A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Annual Report”). The following risk factor should be read in conjunction with the Risk Factors disclosed in the Annual Report.

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, or other outbreaks of disease or similar public health threats, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The recent outbreak of COVID-19, and any other outbreaks of contagious diseases or other adverse public health developments in the United States or worldwide, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In 2020, COVID-19 has significantly impacted economic activity and markets worldwide, and it could continue to negatively affect our business in a number of ways. These effects could include, but are not limited to:

▪Disruptions or restrictions on our employees’ ability to work effectively due to illness, travel bans, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders or other limitations.

▪Temporary closures of our facilities or the facilities of our customers or suppliers, which could affect our ability to timely meet our customer’s orders and negatively impact our supply chain.

▪In an effort to increase the wider availability of needed medical and other supplies and products, we may elect to, or governments may require us to, allocate manufacturing capacity (for example, pursuant to the U.S. Defense Production Act) in a way that adversely affects our regular operations in a manner that may result in adversely affecting our reputation and customer and supplier relationships.

▪Resulting cost increases from the effects of a pandemic such as COVID-19 may not be fully recoverable.

▪The failure of third parties on which we rely, including our suppliers, customers, contractors, commercial banks and external business partners, to meet their respective obligations to the Company, or significant disruptions in their ability to do so, which may be caused by their own financial or operational difficulties.

▪The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased economic and demand uncertainty and has led to disruption and volatility in the global credit and financial markets, which increases the cost of capital and adversely impacts access to capital for both the Company and our customers and suppliers.

▪Commodity costs have become more volatile due to the COVID-19 outbreak. We expect continued commodity cost volatility, and our commodity hedging program might not sufficiently offset this volatility.

▪Disruptions or uncertainties related to the COVID-19 outbreak for a sustained period of time could result in delays or modifications to our strategic plans and initiatives and hinder our ability to achieve our strategic goals.

▪The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a global economic slowdown that may last for a potentially extended duration, and it is possible that it could cause a global recession. Deteriorating economic and political conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, such as increased unemployment, decreases in capital spending, declines in consumer confidence, or economic slowdowns or recessions, could cause a decrease in demand for our products.

▪An impairment in the carrying value of goodwill or intangible assets or a change in the useful life of definite-lived intangible assets could occur if there are sustained changes in consumer purchasing behaviors, government restrictions, financial results, or a deterioration of macroeconomic conditions.

▪Actions we have taken or may take, or decisions we have made or may make, as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic may result in legal claims or litigation against us.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic, or other outbreaks of disease or similar public health threats, materially and adversely impacts our business, financial condition and results of operations is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments. Such developments may include the geographic spread and duration of the virus, the severity of the disease and the

39

actions that may be taken by various governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the outbreak. In addition, how quickly, and to what extent, normal economic and operating conditions can resume cannot be predicted, and the resumption of normal business operations may be delayed or constrained by lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our suppliers, third-party service providers, and/or customers.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Purchases of Our Equity Securities

In November 2018, the Company announced that the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of an additional $100 million in shares of common stock over a three-year period. This authorization was an increase to the previous $100 million repurchase programs approved in February 2017 and February 2016. The repurchase program is set to expire on February 28, 2022. For the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we repurchased no shares pursuant to our repurchase program. Additionally, during this period there were 1,820 shares repurchased to cover minimum employee tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of restricted stock awards.
