Note 1 – Description of the Business

FreightCar America, Inc. (“FreightCar”) operates primarily in North America through its direct and indirect subsidiaries, JAC Operations, Inc., Johnstown America, LLC, Freight Car Services, Inc., JAIX Leasing Company (“JAIX”), FreightCar America Leasing, LLC, FreightCar America Leasing 1, LLC, FreightCar Roanoke, LLC, FreightCar Mauritius Ltd. (“Mauritius”), FreightCar Rail Services, LLC (“FCRS”), FreightCar Short Line, Inc. (“FCSL”), FreightCar Alabama, LLC and FreightCar (Shanghai) Trading Co., Ltd (herein collectively referred to as the “Company”), and manufactures a wide range of railroad freight cars, supplies railcar parts and leases freight cars. The Company designs and builds high-quality railcars, including coal cars, bulk commodity cars, covered hopper cars, intermodal and non-intermodal flat cars, mill gondola cars, coil steel cars and boxcars. The Company is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois and has facilities in the following locations: Cherokee, Alabama; Grand Island, Nebraska; Johnstown, Pennsylvania; Roanoke, Virginia; and Shanghai, People’s Republic of China.

The Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are all Delaware corporations or Delaware limited liability companies except Mauritius, which is incorporated in Mauritius, and FreightCar (Shanghai) Trading Co., Ltd., which is organized in the People’s Republic of China. The Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries are all wholly owned.

Note 2 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FreightCar America, Inc. and subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The foregoing financial information has been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accompanying interim financial information is unaudited; however, the Company believes the financial information reflects all adjustments (consisting of items of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. The 2018 year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements as of December 31, 2018. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Note 3 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software, which requires capitalization of certain implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. ASU 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General, which modifies the disclosure requirements for defined benefit and other postretirement plans. ASU 2018-14 eliminates certain disclosures related to accumulated other comprehensive income, plan assets, related parties and the effects of interest rate basis point changes on assumed health care costs, and adds disclosures to address significant gains and losses related to changes in benefit obligations. ASU 2018-14 also clarifies disclosure requirements for projected benefit and accumulated benefit obligations. ASU 2018-14 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption on a retrospective basis for all periods presented is required. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which permits entities to reclassify tax effects stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a result of the recent U.S. tax reform to retained earnings. Companies that elect to reclassify these amounts must reclassify stranded tax effects for all items accounted for in accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2018-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company did not elect to reclassify tax effects stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a result of the recent U.S. tax reform to retained earnings.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. Topic 350 currently requires an entity to perform a two-step test to determine the amount, if any, of goodwill impairment. The amendment in ASU 2017-04 removes the second step of the test. An entity will apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. This standard is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, as amended, Leases (Topic 842), which requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than twelve months regardless of whether the lease is classified as an operating lease or a financing lease. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 effective January 1, 2019. See Note 4 – Leases for the impact on the financial statements and related disclosures from the adoption of this standard.

Note 4 – Leases

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, as amended, Leases (Topic 842) using the modified retrospective method of applying the new standard at the adoption date. In addition, the Company has elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which, among other things, does not require reassessment of prior conclusions related to contracts containing a lease, lease classification, and initial direct lease costs. Adoption of this standard resulted in the recording of net operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets of $45,727 and corresponding operating lease liabilities of $67,508 as of January 1, 2019. The condensed consolidated balance sheets for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 are presented under the new guidance, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with ASC Topic 840, Leases.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of a contract. Substantially all of the Company’s leases are operating leases. A significant portion of the Company’s operating lease portfolio includes manufacturing sites, component warehouses and corporate offices. The remaining lease terms on the majority of the Company’s leases is between 2.5 to 8 years, some of which include options to extend the lease terms. Leases with initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease ROU assets are presented within long term assets, the current portion of operating lease liabilities is presented within current liabilities and the non-current portion of operating lease liabilities are presented within long term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and the lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make the lease payments arising during the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the net present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. The Company’s ROU assets have been reduced by the remaining unamortized lease incentive that the Company received on February 28, 2018 from Navistar, Inc. in exchange for the Company assuming all of the remaining contractual lease obligations for the Shoals facility. The Company’s lease term includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. As most of the Company’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The components of the lease costs were as follows:

On February 26, 2019, the Company entered into an Amendment to its lease of the Shoals, Alabama manufacturing facility to extend the initial term thereof from December 31, 2021 to December 31, 2026, with two five-year extension terms thereafter through December 31, 2031 and December 31, 2036, at the Company’s option. In addition, the Company will vacate up to 40% of the manufacturing facility on or before December 31, 2021 with the base rent payable to the Landlord reduced on proportional basis.

The Company has accounted for the amendment as a modification of the lease, resulting in a non-cash increase to lease liability and right of use asset of $32,079. The company concluded that the initial term through December 31, 2026 would be included in the measurement of lease liabilities as of the modification date. The Company has concluded that the options for extensions beyond that date are not reasonably certain of exercise, and have been excluded from the measurement of lease liabilities.

Contract Balances and Accounts Receivable

Contract assets represent the Company’s rights to consideration for performance obligations that have been satisfied but for which the terms of the contract do not permit billing at the reporting date. The Company has no contract assets as of June 30, 2019. The Company may receive cash payments from customers in advance of the Company satisfying performance obligations under its sales contracts resulting in deferred revenue or customer deposits, which are considered contract

liabilities. Deferred revenue and customer deposits are classified as either current or long-term in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize the related revenue. Deferred revenue and customer deposits included in customer deposits, other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2019 were not material.

Performance Obligations

The Company is electing not to disclose the value of the remaining unsatisfied performance obligation with a duration of one year or less as permitted by the practical expedient in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company had no material remaining unsatisfied performance obligations as of June 30, 2019 with expected duration of greater than one year.

Note 6 – Segment Information

The Company’s operations comprise two operating segments, Manufacturing and Parts, and one reportable segment, Manufacturing. The Company’s Manufacturing segment includes new railcar manufacturing, used railcar sales, railcar leasing and major railcar rebuilds. The Company’s Parts operating segment is not significant for reporting purposes and has been combined with corporate and other non-operating activities as Corporate and Other.

Segment operating income is an internal performance measure used by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker to assess the performance of each segment in a given period. Segment operating income includes all external revenues attributable to the segments as well as operating costs and income that management believes are directly attributable to the current production of goods and services. The Company’s management reporting package does not include interest revenue, interest expense or income taxes allocated to individual segments and these items are not considered as a component of segment operating income. Segment assets represent operating assets and exclude intersegment accounts, deferred tax assets and income tax receivables. The Company does not allocate cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to its operating segments as the Company’s treasury function is managed at the corporate level. Intersegment revenues were not material in any period presented.

Note 7 – Fair Value Measurements

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets that were recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and the Company’s non-financial assets that were recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis.


Recurring Fair Value Measurements	As of June 30, 2019
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
ASSETS:
Cash equivalents	$	4,125	$	—	$	—	$	4,125
Restricted certificates of deposit	$	5,028	$	—	$	—	$	5,028
Escrow receivable	$	—	$	—	$	930	$	930

The sale of the Company’s railcar repair and maintenance services business on September 30, 2015 resulted in $1,960 of the aggregate purchase price being placed into escrow in order to secure the indemnification obligations of FCRS and FCSL. The fair market value of the remaining escrow receivable above represents the escrow balance of $980 as of each of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, net of the fair value of the indemnification obligations, which was estimated using the discounted probability-weighted cash flow method.

Note 8 – Marketable Securities

The Company’s current investment policy is to invest in cash, certificates of deposit, U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. government agency obligations and money market funds invested in U.S. government securities. Marketable securities of $18,019 as of December 31, 2018 consisted of U.S. Treasury securities held to maturity and certificates of deposit with original maturities of greater than 90 days and up to one year. The Company had no marketable securities as of June 30, 2019. Due to the short-term nature of these securities and their low interest rates, there is no material difference between their fair market values and amortized costs.

Note 9 – Inventories

Inventories, net of reserve for excess and obsolete items, consist of the following:


	June 30, 2019		December 31, 2018

Note 13 – Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has a qualified, defined benefit pension plan that was established to provide benefits to certain employees. The plan is frozen and participants are no longer accruing benefits. Generally, contributions to the plan are not less than the minimum amounts required under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and not more than the maximum amount that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes. The plan assets are held by an independent trustee and consist primarily of equity and fixed income securities.

The Company also provides certain postretirement health care benefits for certain of its salaried retired employees. Generally, employees may become eligible for health care benefits if they retire after attaining specified age and service requirements. These benefits are subject to deductibles, co-payment provisions and other limitations.

The components of net periodic benefit cost (benefit) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, are as follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
Pension Benefits	2019			2018			2019			2018
Interest cost	$	466		$	428		$	932		$	855

The Company made no contributions to the Company’s defined benefit pension plan for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The Company expects to make no contributions to its pension plan in 2019.

The Company made contributions to the Company’s postretirement benefit plan for salaried retirees of $158 and $126 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $276 and $351 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company expects to make $552 in contributions (including contributions already made) to its postretirement benefit plan in 2019 for salaried retirees.

The Company also maintains qualified defined contribution plans, which provide benefits to employees based on employee contributions, employee earnings or certain subsidiary earnings, with discretionary contributions allowed. Expenses related to these plans were $372 and $457 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $743 and $887 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Note 14 – Contingencies

The Company is involved in various warranty and repair claims and, in certain cases, related pending and threatened legal proceedings with its customers in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the Company’s potential losses in excess of the accrued warranty and legal provisions, if any, are not expected to be material to the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company received cash payments of $15,733 and $1,410 during 2015 and 2017, respectively, for Alabama state and local incentives related to its capital investment and employment levels at its Cherokee, Alabama (“Shoals”) facility. Under the incentive agreements a certain portion of the incentives may be repayable by the Company if targeted levels of employment are not maintained for a period of up to six years from the date of the incentive. In the event that employment levels drop below the minimum targeted levels of employment and any portion of the incentives is required to be paid back, the amount is unlikely to exceed the deferred liability balance of $8,051 as of June 30, 2019.

As part of a settlement agreement reached with one of its customers, the Company agreed to pay $7,500 to settle all claims related to a prior year’s commercial dispute. Payment will be made over a period of three years.

In addition to the foregoing, the Company is involved in certain other pending and threatened legal proceedings, including commercial disputes and workers’ compensation and employee matters arising out of the conduct of its business. While the ultimate outcome of these other legal proceedings cannot be determined at this time, it is the opinion of management that the resolution of these other actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 15 – Earnings Per Share

Shares used in the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per common share are reconciled as follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2019		2018		2019		2018
Weighted average common shares outstanding		12,352,271		12,317,546		12,344,684		12,311,810

Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding		12,352,271		12,317,546		12,344,684		12,311,810

Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding include the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of stock options and the assumed vesting of nonvested share awards. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, 707,395 and 350,644 shares, respectively, were not included in the weighted average common shares outstanding calculation as they were anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, 668,370 and 353,124 shares, respectively, were not included in the weighted average common shares outstanding as they were anti-dilutive.

Note 16 – Subsequent Event

On July 22, 2019, the Company announced its intention to close its Roanoke, Virginia manufacturing facility as part of its “Back to Basics” strategy. The Company will retain the necessary workforce to complete the remaining contracted work at the facility through the end of November 2019. The cost of the restructuring plan is expected to range between $3,500 and $4,500 and will be incurred in 2019 and during the first half of 2020. Restructuring and impairment charges of $1,319 are reported as a separate line item on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and represent non-cash impairment charges for property, plant and equipment at the Roanoke facility.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

OVERVIEW

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based on management’s current expectations, estimates and projections about our business and operations. Our actual results may differ materially from those currently anticipated and expressed in such forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

We are a diversified manufacturer of railcars and railcar components. We design and manufacture a broad variety of railcar types for transportation of bulk commodities and containerized freight products primarily in North America.

We rebuild and convert railcars and sell forged, cast and fabricated parts for all of the railcars we produce, as well as those manufactured by others. We also lease freight cars. Our primary customers are railroads, shippers and financial institutions.

Our railcar manufacturing facilities are located in Cherokee, Alabama (“Shoals”) and Roanoke, Virginia. Our Shoals facility is an important part of our long-term growth strategy as we continue to expand our railcar product and service offerings. On February 28, 2018, we acquired substantially all of the operating assets at the Shoals facility of Navistar, Inc. (“Navistar”) and its subsidiary, International Truck and Engine Investments Corporation, including their railcar business, and assumed the lease for the facility (the “Acquisition”).

On July 22, 2019, the Company announced its intention to close its Roanoke, Virginia manufacturing facility as part of its “Back to Basics” strategy. The Company will retain the necessary workforce to complete the remaining contracted work at the facility through the end of November 2019. The cost of the restructuring plan is expected to range between $3.5 million and $4.5 million and will be incurred in 2019 and during the first half of 2020. Annual cost savings of approximately $5.0 million are expected upon completion of the restructuring plan.

Total orders for railcars in the first half of 2019 were 792 units, consisting of 292 new railcars and 500 rebuilt railcars, compared to orders for 2,206 units, consisting of 1,606 new railcars and 600 rebuilt railcars, in the first half of 2018. Total backlog of unfilled orders was 1,121 units at June 30, 2019, compared to 1,699 units at December 31, 2018. The estimated sales value of the backlog was $96 million and $160 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2018

Revenues

Our consolidated revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2019 were $73.7 million compared to $66.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Manufacturing segment revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2019 were $70.8 million compared to $63.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Railcar deliveries totaled 729 units, consisting of 478 new railcars and 251 rebuilt railcars, in the second quarter of 2019, compared to 1,185 units, consisting of 368 new railcars, 303 leased railcars and 514 rebuilt railcars, in the second quarter of 2018. The increase in Manufacturing segment revenues for the 2019 period compared to the 2018 period reflects a higher average selling price for new railcars and a higher number of new versus rebuilt railcars which were partially offset by a decrease in the number of railcars delivered. Corporate and Other revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2019 were $2.8 million compared to $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, reflecting lower parts sales.

Gross Profit (Loss)

Our consolidated gross margin was 8.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 7.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Our consolidated gross profit was $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Manufacturing segment gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $5.3 million compared to $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in gross profit for our Manufacturing segment for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily the result of better mix of newer railcars and a $3.5 million positive impact from the resolution of a previous year’s product claim that was settled after the quarter-end. Improved margin was partially offset by the decline in railcar deliveries, a $1.7 million decrease, and product mix and pricing, which resulted in an additional $1.6 million decrease, for the 2019 period compared to 2018.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 were $15.4 million compared to $8.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Manufacturing segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 were $1.8 million compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 reflecting lower salaries and wages, employee severance and allocated costs. Corporate and Other selling, general and administrative expenses were $13.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in Corporate and Other selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to $7.5 million recorded as part of a settlement agreement reached with one of our customers to settle all claims related to a prior year’s commercial dispute. Corporate and Other selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 also reflected decreases in stock-based compensation of $1.3 million which primarily included the impact of forfeitures of unvested stock awards by executives, increases in employee procurement costs of $0.2 million, increases in employee severance of $0.4 million and increases in research and development costs of $0.2 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Loss on Sale of Railcars Available for Lease

Loss on sale of railcars available for lease for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $5.2 million and represented the loss on sale of leased railcars with a net book value of $16.6 million. We did not sell any railcars available for lease during the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Restructuring and Impairment Charges

On July 22, 2019, we announced our intention to close our Roanoke, Virginia manufacturing facility as part of our “Back to Basics” strategy. Restructuring and impairment charges of $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 represented non-cash impairment charges for property, plant and equipment at our Roanoke facility. There were no restructuring and impairment charges for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Operating Loss

Our consolidated operating loss for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $15.8 million compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Operating loss for the Manufacturing segment was $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to operating income of $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 reflecting the loss on sale of railcars available for lease and restructuring and impairment charges described above which were partially offset by improvements in Manufacturing segment gross profit and reductions in Manufacturing segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. Corporate and Other operating loss was $12.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, primarily due to the previously described $7.5 million settlement of a prior year’s commercial dispute.

Income Taxes

Our income tax provision was close to zero for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to an income tax benefit of $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. As a result of additional valuation allowance recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2019, our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was close to zero. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was 21.7%.

Net Loss

As a result of the foregoing, our net loss was $15.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, our diluted net loss per share was $1.26 compared to $0.19 for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2018

Revenues

Our consolidated revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were $144.4 million compared to $149.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Manufacturing segment revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were $138.4 million compared to $142.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Railcar deliveries totaled 1,370 units, consisting of 1,119 new railcars and 251 rebuilt railcars, in the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 2,279 units, consisting of 1,259 new railcars, 425 leased railcars and 595 rebuilt railcars, in the second quarter of 2018. The decrease in Manufacturing segment revenues for the 2019 period compared to the 2018 period reflects a decrease in the number of railcars delivered which was partially offset by a higher average selling price for new railcars and a higher number of new versus rebuilt railcars. Corporate and Other revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were $6.0 million compared to $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 reflecting lower parts sales.

Gross Profit (Loss)

Our consolidated gross margin was (0.6)% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 2.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Our consolidated gross loss was $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to gross profit of $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Manufacturing segment gross loss for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $2.2 million compared to gross profit of $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decline in railcar deliveries contributed a $3.7 million decrease in gross profit in our Manufacturing segment and product mix, pricing and production costs contributed a $0.6 million decrease in our Manufacturing segment gross profit for the 2019 period compared to the 2018 period.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were $ 23.0 million compared to $16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Manufacturing segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were $3.9 million compared to $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and included lower sales commissions of $0.2 million and lower salaries and wages of $0.2 million, which were offset by higher allocated costs of $0.2 million. Corporate and Other selling, general and administrative expenses were $19.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $12.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in Corporate and Other selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to $7.5 million recorded as part of a settlement agreement reached with one of our customers to settle all claims related to a prior year’s commercial dispute. Corporate and Other selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2019 also reflected decreases in stock-based compensation of $1.5 million, increases in employee procurement costs of $0.4 million, increases in employee severance of $0.4 million and increases in research and development costs of $0.4 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018.

There were no restructuring and impairment charges for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Operating Loss

Our consolidated operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $30.4 million compared to $12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Operating loss for the Manufacturing segment was $12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 reflecting the decrease in Manufacturing segment gross profit described above, the loss on sale of railcars available for lease and restructuring and impairment charges for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Corporate and Other operating loss was $17.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 reflecting lower parts sales and the increases in Corporate and Other selling, general and administrative expenses described above.

Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was 0.6% compared to 22.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. As a result of additional valuation allowance recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2019, our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily included the impact of a change in uncertain tax positions recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, our diluted net loss per share was $2.37 compared to $0.70 for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary sources of liquidity for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, were our cash and cash equivalent balances on hand, our securities held to maturity and our revolving credit facilities.

On April 12, 2019, our credit agreement with Bank of America N.A. was terminated and replaced by a new Credit and Security Agreement (“the “BMO Credit Agreement”) with BMO Harris Bank N.A. (“BMO”). As of December 31, 2018, we had no borrowings under our prior revolving credit facility and $4.8 million in outstanding letters of credit under such facility. As of June 30, 2019 we had no borrowings under the BMO credit facility.

On April 16, 2019, FreightCar America Leasing 1, LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into the credit agreement (the “M&T Credit Agreement”), with M&T Bank N.A. As of June 30, 2019 FreightCar America Leasing 1, LLC had $10.2 million in outstanding debt under the M&T Credit Agreement, which was collateralized by leased railcars with a carrying value of $16.6 million. See Note 10 – Revolving Credit Facilities.

Our restricted certificates of deposit and restricted cash equivalents balance was $5.0 million as of each of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, and consisted of certificates of deposit used to collateralize standby letters of credit with respect to performance guarantees and to support our workers’ compensation insurance claims. The standby letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2019 are scheduled to expire at various dates through February 1, 2020. We expect to establish restricted cash balances and restricted certificates of deposit in future periods to minimize bank fees related to standby letters of credit.

We adopted ASU 2016-02, the new lease accounting standard, effective January 1, 2019 and also entered into an amendment of the lease of our Shoals, Alabama facility to extend the term. See Note 4 – Leases for additional information and discussion.

Based on our current level of operations and known changes in planned volume based on our backlog, we believe that our operating cash flows, our marketable securities and our cash balances, together with amounts available under our revolving credit facilities, will be sufficient to meet our expected liquidity needs. Our long-term liquidity is contingent upon future

operating performance and our ability to continue to meet financial covenants under our revolving credit facilities and any other indebtedness. We may also require additional capital in the future to fund working capital as demand for railcars increases, payments for contractual obligations, organic growth opportunities, including new plant and equipment and development of railcars, joint ventures, international expansion and acquisitions, and these capital requirements could be substantial.

Based upon our operating performance and capital requirements, we may, from time to time, be required to raise additional funds through additional offerings of our common stock and through long-term borrowings. There can be no assurance that long-term debt, if needed, will be available on terms attractive to us, or at all. Furthermore, any additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants. Our failure to raise capital if and when needed could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, investing activities and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2019			2018
	(In thousands)
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	(15,153	)	$	(48,402	)
Investing activities		30,730			(14,124	)
Financing activities		9,212			(118	)

Total	$	24,789		$	(62,644	)

Operating Activities. Our net cash provided by or used in operating activities reflects net income or loss adjusted for non-cash charges and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Cash flows from operating activities are affected by several factors, including fluctuations in business volume, contract terms for billings and collections, the timing of collections on our contract receivables, processing of bi-weekly payroll and associated taxes, and payments to our suppliers. As some of our customers accept delivery of new railcars in train-set quantities, variations in our sales lead to significant fluctuations in our operating profits and cash from operating activities. We do not usually experience business credit issues, although a payment may be delayed pending completion of closing documentation.

Our net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $15.2 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $48.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Our net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 reflects changes in working capital, including decreases in inventory and accounts receivable due to the timing of deliveries of railcars and the related cash receipts. Our net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 reflects changes in working capital, including a $32.2 million increase in inventory on lease, a $18.1 million increase in accounts receivable and a $11.6 million increase in inventory.

Investing Activities. Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $30.7 million and represented the $18.0 million maturity of U.S. Treasury securities and certificates of deposit (net of purchases), $11.4 million proceeds from sale of railcars available for lease and the $3.3 million maturity of restricted certificates of deposit (net of purchases) which was partially offset by the $2.0 million cost of property, plant and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $14.1 million and primarily represented the $12.8 million purchase of U.S. Treasury securities and certificates of deposit (net of maturities) and the $1.4 million cost of railcars on operating leases.

Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily represented $10.2 million of proceeds from our line of credit borrowings (collateralized by leased railcars) which were partially offset by $0.9 million of deferred financing costs related to our new credit facilities.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures were $2.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $0.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018. Excluding unforeseen expenditures, management anticipates that total capital expenditures for 2019 will be between $4.0 million and $5.0 million, including amounts already paid.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements including, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and prospects. We have used the words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “intend” and similar expressions in this report to identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. However, forward-looking statements inherently involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties relate to, among other things, the cyclical nature of our business, the competitive nature of our industry, our reliance upon a small number of customers that represent a large percentage of our sales, the variable purchase patterns of our customers and the timing of completion, delivery and customer acceptance of orders, fluctuating costs of raw materials, including steel and aluminum, and delays in the delivery of raw materials, the risk of lack of acceptance of our new railcar offerings by our customers, risks relating to our relationship with our unionized employees and their unions and other competitive factors. The factors listed above are not exhaustive. Other sections of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q include additional factors that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict the impact of all of these factors on our business, financial condition or results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not rely on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We expressly disclaim any duty to provide updates to forward-looking statements, and the estimates and assumptions associated with them, in order to reflect changes in circumstances or expectations or the occurrence of unanticipated events except to the extent required by applicable securities laws.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
