WEST CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, November 3, 2021 - Titan International, Inc. (NYSE: TWI), a leading global manufacturer of off-highway wheels, tires, assemblies, and undercarriage products, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021, highlighted by the strongest third quarter revenue and profit performance since 2013.
“Paul Reitz, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “Our results this period exceeded expectations as we posted our strongest third quarter for revenue and profitability since 2013. Again this quarter our global Titan team has worked hard to increase our production levels and we continue to look to build our team further to increase our output in coming periods. Our third quarter adjusted EBITDA of $35.1 million has only been surpassed a couple times since 2014 with one of those times occurring in the second quarter of this year when we posted adjusted EBITDA of $37 million and the other during the first quarter of 2018 with $41.2 million. We now believe full year adjusted EBITDA to be over $130 million. Our One Titan team rose to the challenge and I want to thank all of Titan’s employees around the world for doing a great job.
“During the third quarter, each of our segments experienced strong sales growth, with Agriculture leading the way with an increase of over 59 percent year over year. Our order books continue to strengthen, especially on the Agriculture side, where commodity pricing remains at good levels with corn above $5/bushel, soybeans above $12/bushel and cotton at an all-time high, thus ensuring strong farmer income levels for 2022. Quite simply, farmers are doing really good again this year. High farmer incomes combined with historically low dealer inventory levels and aging equipment, creates a strong tailwind that we believe will continue through 2022. Our earthmoving and construction (EMC) growth in the third quarter was very strong at 36 percent year over year. The EMC end

markets continue to look increasingly promising and our undercarriage business is building momentum as we head into next year with strong development in orders as infrastructure investments are coming across most of our geographies. It is without a doubt, one of the most dynamic business environments all of us have faced and our Titan team has been successful in managing through it. We are in a good position at this time to capitalize on our reinvigorated strength to drive growth and increased financial results for our investors.”
Results of Operations
Net sales for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021, were $450.4 million, compared to $304.8 million in the comparable quarter of 2020, an increase of 47.8 percent driven by sales increases across all segments. Overall net sales was influenced heavily by increased volume from demand increases across all segments of the business, most notably agriculture. The contributing factors to the increase in demand were increased commodity prices, lower equipment inventory levels and pent up demand following the economic impacts during 2020.
Gross profit for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021 was $60.3 million, compared to $31.3 million in the comparable prior year period. Gross margin was 13.4 percent of net sales for the quarter, compared to 10.3 percent of net sales in the comparable prior year period. The increase in gross profit and margin was driven by the impact of increases in sales volume, as described previously, favorably impacting overhead absorption. In addition, cost reduction initiatives have been executed across global production facilities, in the last year.
Selling, general, administrative, research and development (SGARD) expenses for the third quarter of 2021 were $34.6 million, compared to $35.7 million for the comparable prior year period. As a percentage of net sales, SGARD was 7.7 percent, compared to 11.7 percent for the comparable prior year period. The decrease in SGARD was driven primarily by a $5.0 million accrual recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2020 for the settlement of a legal matter offset by an increase in variable costs associated with improved operating performance and growth in sales.
Income from operations for the third quarter of 2021 was $22.9 million, or 5.1 percent of net sales, compared to a loss of $6.8 million, or 2.2 percent of net sales, for the third quarter of 2020. The increase in income was primarily due to the higher sales and improvements in gross profit margins.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA was $35.1 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to $14.2 million in the comparable prior year period. The Company utilizes EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures, as a means to measure its operating performance. A reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA can be found at the end of this release.
Adjusted net income applicable to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2021 was income of $10.8 million, equal to income of $0.17 per basic and diluted share, compared to a loss of $6.3 million, equal to a loss of $0.10 per basic and diluted share, in the third quarter of 2020. The Company utilizes adjusted net income applicable to common shareholders, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as a means to measure its operating performance. A reconciliation of net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and adjusted net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders can be found at the end of this release.
Financial Condition
The Company ended the third quarter of 2021 with total cash and cash equivalents of $94.6 million, compared to $117.4 million at December 31, 2020. Long-term debt at September 30, 2021, was $451.0 million, compared to $433.6 million at December 31, 2020. Short-term debt was $30.9 million at September 30, 2021, compared to $31.1 million at December 31, 2020. Net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) was $387.2 million at September 30, 2021, compared to $347.3 million at December 31, 2020. The increase in net debt during the first nine months of 2021 was primarily due to managed investments in working capital to support the business growth as well as approximately $19 million paid in connection with the refinancing of the senior notes and $9.2 million paid for a legal settlement.
Net cash used by operating activities for the first nine months of 2021 was $2.3 million, compared to net cash provided by operations of $47.4 million for the comparable prior year period. Capital expenditures were $24.3 million for the first nine months of 2021, compared to $13.4 million for the comparable prior year period. Capital expenditures during the first nine months of 2021 and 2020 represent equipment replacement and improvements, along with new tools, dies and molds related to new product development. The overall capital outlay for 2021 has increased as the Company seeks to enhance the Company's existing facilities and manufacturing capabilities and drive productivity gains following suppression of capital outlay in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and reduction of business activity.
On October 28, 2021, the Company amended and extended the credit and security agreement with respect to the $100 million revolving credit facility (credit facility) with agent BMO Harris Bank N.A. and other financial institutions. The credit facility was increased to $125 million with the amount available under the credit facility determined based upon eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances at certain of its domestic subsidiaries. The amended credit facility has a five-year term with the new maturity occurring on October 28, 2026. The amended credit facility can be expanded by up to $50 million through an accordion provision within the agreement. The amended agreement has terms substantially similar to those contained in the agreement prior to the amendment earlier this year on February 25, 2021 and also includes other enhancements to further improve the availability within the borrowing base.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
Amounts in thousands, except earnings per share data
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). These supplemental schedules provide a quantitative reconciliation between each of adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Titan, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, net sales on a constant currency basis, and net debt, each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure and the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP.
We present adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Titan, adjusted earnings per common share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, net sales on a constant currency basis, and net debt, as we believe that they assist investors with analyzing our business results. In addition, management reviews each of these non-GAAP financial measures in order to evaluate the financial performance of each of our segments, as well as the Company’s performance as a whole. We believe that the presentation of these non‑GAAP financial measures will permit investors to assess the performance of the Company on the same basis as management.
Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Titan, adjusted earnings per common share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, net sales on a constant currency basis, and net debt should be considered supplemental to, not a substitute for, the financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. One should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for our results reported under GAAP. These measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of our businesses as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these measures may be calculated differently than non-GAAP financial measures reported by other companies, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. We attempt to compensate for these limitations by analyzing results on a GAAP basis as well as a non-GAAP basis, prominently disclosing GAAP results and providing reconciliations from GAAP results to non-GAAP results.
The table below provides a reconciliation of adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Titan to net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.
