NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Per Share and Percentage Data)

Note 1—Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hyster-Yale Materials Handling, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and the accounts of Hyster-Yale's wholly owned domestic and international subsidiaries and majority-owned joint ventures (collectively, "Hyster-Yale" or the "Company"). All intercompany accounts and transactions among the consolidated companies are eliminated in consolidation.

The Company, through its wholly owned operating subsidiary, Hyster-Yale Group, Inc. ("HYG"), designs, engineers, manufactures, sells and services a comprehensive line of lift trucks, attachments and aftermarket parts marketed globally, primarily under the Hyster® and Yale® brand names, mainly to independent Hyster® and Yale® retail dealerships. Lift trucks and component parts are manufactured in the United States, China, Northern Ireland, Mexico, the Netherlands, Brazil, the Philippines, Italy, Japan and Vietnam.

The Company operates Bolzoni S.p.A. ("Bolzoni"). Bolzoni is a leading worldwide producer and distributor of attachments, forks and lift tables marketed under the Bolzoni®, Auramo® and Meyer® brand names. Bolzoni also produces components for lift truck manufacturers. Bolzoni products are manufactured in the United States, Italy, China, Germany and Finland. Through the design, production and distribution of a wide range of attachments, Bolzoni has a strong presence in the market niche of lift truck attachments and industrial material handling.

The Company operates Nuvera Fuel Cells, LLC ("Nuvera"). Nuvera is an alternative-power technology company focused on the design, manufacture and sale of hydrogen fuel cell stacks and engines.

Investments in Sumitomo NACCO Forklift Co., Ltd. (“SN”), a 50%-owned joint venture, and HYG Financial Services, Inc. ("HYGFS"), a 20%-owned joint venture, are accounted for by the equity method. SN operates manufacturing facilities in Japan, the Philippines and Vietnam from which the Company purchases certain components, service parts and lift trucks. Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd. ("Sumitomo") owns the remaining 50% interest in SN. Each stockholder of SN is entitled to appoint directors representing 50% of the vote of SN’s board of directors. All matters related to policies and programs of operation, manufacturing and sales activities require mutual agreement between the Company and Sumitomo prior to a vote of SN’s board of directors. HYGFS is a joint venture with Wells Fargo Financial Leasing, Inc. (“WF”), formed primarily for the purpose of providing financial services to independent Hyster® and Yale® lift truck dealers and National Account customers in the United States. National Account customers are large customers with centralized purchasing and geographically dispersed operations in multiple dealer territories. The Company’s percentage share of the net income or loss from these equity investments is reported on the line “Income from unconsolidated affiliates” in the “Other (income) expense” section of the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2023 and the results of its operations and changes in equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 have been included. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information or notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied, which occurs when control of the trucks, parts or services are transferred to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. The satisfaction of performance obligations under the terms of a revenue contract generally gives rise for the right to payment from the customer. The Company's standard payment terms vary by the type and location of the customer and the products or services offered. Generally, the time between when revenue is recognized and when payment is due is not significant. Given the insignificant days between revenue recognition and receipt of payment, financing components do not exist between the Company and its customers. Taxes collected from customers are excluded from revenue. The estimated costs of product warranties are recognized as expense when the products are sold. See Note 11 for further information on product warranties.

The majority of the Company's sales contracts contain performance obligations satisfied at a point in time when title and risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. Revenues for service contracts are recognized as the services are provided.

The Company also records variable consideration in the form of estimated reductions to revenues for customer programs and incentive offerings, including special pricing agreements, promotions and other volume-based incentives. Lift truck sales revenue is recorded net of estimated discounts. The estimated discount amount is based upon historical experience and trend analysis for each lift truck model. In addition to standard discounts, dealers can also request additional discounts that allow them to offer price concessions to customers. From time to time, the Company offers special incentives to increase market share or dealer stock and offers certain customers volume rebates if a specified cumulative level of purchases is obtained.

For contracts with customers that include multiple performance obligations, judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations specified in these contracts are distinct and should be accounted for as separate revenue transactions for recognition purposes. For such arrangements, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers or using expected cost plus margin. Impairment losses recognized on receivables or contract assets were not significant for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are reported on the line “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company pays for shipping and handling activities regardless of when control is transferred and has elected to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the good, rather than a promised service. These costs are reported on the line “Cost of sales” in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The following table disaggregates revenue by category:

Dealer sales are recognized when the Company transfers control based on the shipping terms of the contract, which is generally when the truck is shipped from the manufacturing facility to the dealer. The majority of direct customer sales are to National Account customers. In these transactions, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when it delivers the product to the customer according to the terms of the contract. Aftermarket sales represent parts sales, extended warranty and maintenance services. For the sale of aftermarket parts, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when parts are shipped to the customer. When customers are given the right to return eligible parts and accessories, the Company estimates the expected returns based on an analysis of historical experience. The Company adjusts estimated revenues at the earlier of when the most likely amount of consideration expected to be received changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. The Company recognizes revenue for extended warranty and maintenance agreements based on the standalone selling price over the life of the contract, which reflects the costs to perform under these contracts and corresponds with, and thereby depicts, the transfer of control to the customer. Bolzoni revenue from external customers is primarily the sale of attachments to customers. In these transactions, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue according to the shipping terms of the contract. In the United States, Bolzoni also has revenue for sales of lift truck components to the lift truck business. Nuvera's revenues include

Table of Contents

the sale of fuel cell stacks and engines to third parties and to the lift truck business. In all revenue transactions, the Company receives cash equal to the invoice price. The amount of consideration received and the revenue recognized may vary with changes in marketing incentives. Intercompany revenues between Bolzoni, Nuvera and the lift truck business have been eliminated.

Deferred Revenue: The Company defers revenue for transactions that have not met the criteria for recognition at the time payment is collected, including extended warranties and maintenance contracts. In addition, for certain products, services and customer types, the Company collects payment prior to the transfer of control to the customer.

Note 4—Business Segments

The Company’s reportable segments for the lift truck business include the following three management units: the Americas, EMEA and JAPIC. Americas includes operations in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Latin America and the corporate headquarters. EMEA includes operations in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. JAPIC includes operations in the Asia and Pacific regions, including China, as well as the equity earnings of SN operations. Certain amounts are allocated to these geographic management units and are included in the segment results presented below, including product development costs, corporate headquarter's expenses and certain information technology infrastructure costs. These allocations among geographic management units are determined by senior management and not directly incurred by the geographic operations. In addition, other costs are incurred directly by these geographic management units based upon the location of the manufacturing plant or sales units, including manufacturing variances, product liability, warranty and sales discounts, which may not be associated with the geographic management unit of the ultimate end user sales location where revenues and margins are reported. Therefore, the reported results of each segment for the lift truck business cannot be considered stand-alone entities as all segments are inter-related and integrate into a single global lift truck business.

The Company reports the results of both Bolzoni and Nuvera as separate segments. Intercompany sales between Nuvera, Bolzoni and the lift truck business have been eliminated.

Operating profit is the measure of segment profit or loss. Financial information for each reportable segment is presented in the following table:

Note 5—Income Taxes

The income tax provision includes U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign income taxes and is generally based on the application of a forecasted annual income tax rate applied to the current quarter's year-to-date pre-tax income or loss. In determining the estimated annual effective income tax rate, the Company analyzes various factors, including projections of the Company's annual earnings or losses, taxing jurisdictions in which the earnings or losses will be generated, the impact of state and local income taxes, the Company's ability to use tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards, carrybacks, capital loss carryforwards, and available tax planning alternatives. Discrete items, including the effect of changes in tax laws, tax rates and certain circumstances with respect to valuation allowances or the tax effect of other unusual or nonrecurring transactions or adjustments are reflected in the period in which they occur as an addition to, or reduction from, the income tax provision, rather than included in the estimated annual effective income tax rate. Additionally, the Company's interim effective income tax rate is computed and applied without regard to pre-tax losses where such losses are not expected to generate a current-year tax benefit.

A reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory rate to the reported income tax rate is as follows:


	THREE MONTHS ENDED						NINE MONTHS ENDED
	SEPTEMBER 30						SEPTEMBER 30
	2023			2022			2023			2022
Income (loss) before income taxes	$	52.6		$	(32.4)		$	139.3		$	(75.5)
Statutory taxes (21%)	$	11.1		$	(6.8)		$	29.3		$	(15.9)
Interim adjustment	(0.2)			(2.3)			(0.5)			(3.8)
Permanent adjustments:




Valuation allowance	4.2			12.6			4.7			28.5


Other	2.3			0.1			6.7			(0.1)









Discrete items	(1.2)			0.6			(3.3)			(4.7)
Income tax expense	$	16.2		$	4.2		$	36.9		$	4.0
Reported income tax rate	30.8		%	(13.0)		%	26.5		%	(5.3)		%

The Company's estimated annual effective income tax rate assumes that a significant portion of its net operating loss carryforwards will be utilized in 2023 along with the release of the associated valuation allowances. This release will be more than offset by the capitalization of research and development expenses under current U.S. tax rules for which a valuation allowance will be provided. The net of these items is included in the valuation allowance line in the table above.

During the first nine months of 2023, the Company recorded other permanent adjustments primarily related to the unfavorable tax effects of non-U.S. rate differences, state income taxes, non-deductible compensation and global intangible low-taxed income, partially offset by favorable tax effects of foreign derived intangible income, federal income tax credits and equity interest earnings.

During the third quarter of 2023, the Company recognized a discrete tax benefit of $1.2 million primarily related to the expiration of the statute of limitations for uncertain tax positions.

During the second quarter of 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized discrete tax benefits of $2.3 million and $4.5 million, respectively, mainly resulting from the expiration of the statute of limitations for uncertain tax positions related to acquisitions. Of those amounts, an offsetting pre-tax indemnity receivable was recorded for $2.1 million and $3.8 million in the second

quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively. The expense for the release of the indemnity receivable was recorded in pre-tax earnings on the line “Other, net” in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 7—Financial Instruments and Derivative Financial Instruments

Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair values of revolving credit agreements and long-term debt, excluding finance leases, were determined using current rates offered for similar obligations taking into account company credit risk. This valuation methodology is Level 2 as defined in the fair value hierarchy. At September 30, 2023, the fair value and carrying value of revolving credit agreements and long-term debt, excluding finance leases, was $476.1 million and $484.9 million, respectively. At December 31, 2022, the fair value and carrying value of revolving credit agreements and long-term debt, excluding finance leases, was $486.4 million and $490.3 million, respectively.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts to partially reduce risks related to transactions denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts hedge firm commitments and forecasted transactions relating to cash flows associated with sales and purchases denominated in non-functional currencies. The Company offsets fair value amounts related to foreign currency exchange contracts executed with the same counterparty. Changes in the fair value of forward foreign currency exchange contracts that are effective as hedges are recorded in OCI. Deferred gains or losses are reclassified from OCI to the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations in the same period as the gains or losses from the underlying transactions are recorded and are generally recognized in cost of sales.

The Company periodically enters into foreign currency exchange contracts that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. These derivatives are used to reduce the Company's exposure to foreign currency risk related to forecasted purchase or sales transactions or forecasted intercompany cash payments or settlements. Gains and losses on these derivatives are generally recognized in cost of sales.

Table of Contents

The Company periodically enters into forward foreign currency contracts that are designated as net investment hedges of the Company's net investment in its foreign subsidiaries. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualified as a hedge of a net investment in foreign currency, the gain or loss is reported in OCI as part of the cumulative translation adjustment to the extent it is effective. The Company utilizes the forward-rate method of assessing hedge effectiveness.

The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to partially reduce risks related to floating rate financing agreements that are subject to changes in the market rate of interest. Terms of the interest rate swap agreements require the Company to receive a variable interest rate and pay a fixed interest rate. The Company's interest rate swap agreements and the associated variable rate financings are predominately based upon the one-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). Changes in the fair value of interest rate swap agreements that are effective as hedges are recorded in OCI. Deferred gains or losses are reclassified from OCI to the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations in the same period as the gains or losses from the underlying transactions are recorded and are generally recognized in interest expense.

Cash flows from hedging activities are reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows with the same classification as the hedged item, generally as a component of cash flows from operations.

The Company measures its derivatives at fair value on a recurring basis using significant observable inputs. This valuation methodology is Level 2 as defined in the fair value hierarchy. The Company uses a present value technique that incorporates yield curves and foreign currency spot rates to value its derivatives and also incorporates the effect of the Company's and its counterparties' credit risk into the valuation.

The Company does not currently hold any nonderivative instruments designated as hedges or any derivatives designated as fair value hedges.

Foreign Currency Derivatives: The Company held forward foreign currency exchange contracts with total notional amounts of $1.0 billion at September 30, 2023, primarily denominated in euros, Japanese yen, U.S. dollars, Chinese renminbi, British pounds, Swedish kroner, Mexican pesos, and Australian dollars. The Company held forward foreign currency exchange contracts with total notional amounts of $0.8 billion at December 31, 2022, primarily denominated in euros, Japanese yen, U.S. dollars, Chinese renminbi, British pounds, Mexican pesos, Swedish kroner and Australian dollars. The fair value of these contracts approximated a net liability of $45.7 million and $43.5 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts that qualify for hedge accounting are generally used to hedge transactions expected to occur within the next 24 months. The mark-to-market effect of forward foreign currency exchange contracts that are considered effective as hedges has been included in OCI. Based on market valuations at September 30, 2023, $37.9 million of the amount of net deferred loss included in OCI at September 30, 2023 is expected to be reclassified as expense into the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations over the next twelve months, as the transactions occur.

Interest Rate Derivatives: The Company holds certain contracts that hedge interest payments on its $225.0 million term loan borrowings. In addition, the Company holds certain contracts that hedge interest payments on Bolzoni's debt.

The following table summarizes the notional amounts, related rates, excluding spreads, and remaining terms of interest rate swap agreements at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:


Notional Amount				Average Fixed Rate
SEPTEMBER 30		DECEMBER 31		SEPTEMBER 30		DECEMBER 31
2023		2022		2023		2022		Term at September 30, 2023
$	180.0	$	180.0	1.65	%	1.68	%	Extending to May 2027
$	8.3	$	22.4	0.47	%	0.18	%	Extending to May 2027

The fair value of all interest rate swap agreements was a net asset of $17.4 million and $16.1 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The mark-to-market effect of interest rate swap agreements that are considered effective as hedges has been included in OCI. Based on market valuations at September 30, 2023, $7.1 million of the amount included in OCI as net deferred gain is expected to be reclassified as income in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations over the next twelve months, as cash flow payments are made in accordance with the interest rate swap agreements.

Note 8—Retirement Benefit Plans

The Company maintains various defined benefit pension plans that provide benefits based on years of service and average compensation during certain periods. The Company's policy is to make contributions to fund these plans within the range allowed by applicable regulations. Plan assets consist primarily of publicly traded stocks and government and corporate bonds.

Pension benefits for employees covered under the Company's U.S. and U.K. plans are frozen. Only certain grandfathered employees in the Netherlands still earn retirement benefits under a defined benefit pension plan. All other eligible employees of the Company, including employees whose pension benefits are frozen, receive retirement benefits under defined contribution retirement plans.

During the third quarter of 2022, the Company recognized a settlement loss of $1.5 million resulting from lump-sum distributions exceeding the total projected interest cost for the plan year for its U.S. pension plan. The Company remeasured the plan as of September 30, 2022 using a discount rate of 5.52% compared to the December 31, 2021 discount rate of 2.58%. As a result of the remeasurement, the funded status of the plan decreased by $4.3 million and accumulated other comprehensive income increased by $4.2 million ($4.2 million net of tax).

The Company presents the components of net benefit cost, other than service cost, in other (income) expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for its pension plans. Service cost for the Company's pension plan is reported in operating profit. The components of pension (income) expense are set forth below:

Note 9—Inventories

Inventories are summarized as follows:


	SEPTEMBER 30 2023		DECEMBER 31 2022
Finished goods and service parts	$	382.3	$	335.8
Work in process	39.9		36.0
Raw materials	484.3		522.1
Total manufactured inventories	906.5		893.9
LIFO reserve	(91.1)		(94.4)
Total inventory	$	815.4	$	799.5

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market for last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) inventory or lower of cost or net realizable value for first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) inventory. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 50% and 52%, respectively, of total inventories were determined using the LIFO method, which consists primarily of manufactured inventories, including service parts, for the lift truck business in the United States. The FIFO method is used with respect to all other inventories. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of the year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must be based on management's estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Because these estimates are subject to change and may be different than the actual inventory levels and costs at the end of the year, interim results are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

Note 10—Current and Long-Term Financing

On May 25, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment of its secured, floating-rate revolving credit facility (the "Facility"). As a result of the amendment, among other items, (i) a new tranche of revolving loans with aggregate commitments of $25.0 million (the "FILO Commitments") was established under the Facility and (ii) the benchmark interest rate for U.S. dollar-denominated borrowings under the Facility changed from LIBOR to Term SOFR, each as defined in the Facility.

The FILO Commitments will terminate on May 1, 2024 unless otherwise terminated prior to such date by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Facility. Commencing December 1, 2023, the FILO Commitments will amortize on a monthly basis in the amount of $4.2 million per month. Loans under the FILO Commitments ("FILO Loans") bear interest at a floating rate, which can be a base rate or Term SOFR, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margins for FILO Loans are 2.25% for base rate loans and 3.25% for Term SOFR loans. Subsequent to the amendment, existing U.S. Loans (as defined in the Facility) were reallocated to the FILO Commitment. As a result of such reallocation, the FILO Commitment was fully utilized as of the closing.

Table of Contents

After giving effect to the amendment, the Facility consists of a domestic revolving credit facility in the amount of $210.0 million, a foreign revolving credit facility in the amount of $90.0 million and the FILO Commitments in the amount of $25.0 million.

The Company incurred approximately $0.8 million of additional deferred financing fees in connection with the amendment of the Facility.

Note 11—Product Warranties

The Company provides a standard warranty on its lift trucks, generally for twelve months or 1,000 to 2,000 hours. For certain series of lift trucks, the Company provides a standard warranty of one to two years or 2,000 or 4,000 hours. For certain components in some series of lift trucks, the Company provides a standard warranty of two to three years or 4,000 to 6,000 hours. The Company estimates the costs which may be incurred under its standard warranty programs and records a liability for such costs at the time product revenue is recognized.

In addition, the Company sells separately priced, extended warranty agreements for its lift trucks, which generally provide a warranty for an additional two to five years or up to 2,400 to 10,000 hours. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending upon the product sold and the country in which the Company does business. Revenue received for the sale of extended warranty contracts is deferred and recognized in the same manner as the costs incurred to perform under the warranty contracts.

The Company also maintains a quality enhancement program under which it provides for specifically identified field product improvements in its warranty obligation. Accruals under this program are determined based on estimates of the potential number of claims and the cost of those claims based on historical and anticipated costs.

The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Factors that affect the warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims and the cost per claim.

Changes in the Company's current and long-term warranty obligations, including deferred revenue on extended warranty contracts, are as follows:


	2023
Balance at December 31, 2022	$	56.7
Current year warranty expense	36.0
Change in estimate related to pre-existing warranties	(6.0)
Payments made	(20.3)

Balance at September 30, 2023	$	66.4

Note 12—Contingencies

Various legal and regulatory proceedings and claims have been or may be asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of its businesses, including product liability, environmental and other claims. These proceedings and claims are incidental to the ordinary course of business. Management believes that it has meritorious defenses and will vigorously defend the Company in these actions. Any costs that management estimates will be paid as a result of these claims are accrued when the liability is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Although the ultimate disposition of these proceedings is not presently determinable, management believes, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the likelihood is remote that costs will be incurred materially in excess of accruals already recognized.

Note 13—Guarantees

Under various financing arrangements for certain customers, including independent retail dealerships, the Company provides recourse or repurchase obligations such that it would be obligated in the event of default by the customer. Terms of the third-party financing arrangements for which the Company is providing recourse or repurchase obligations generally range from one to five years. Total amounts subject to recourse or repurchase obligations at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $138.7 million and $133.2 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, losses anticipated under the terms of the recourse or repurchase obligations were not significant and reserves have been provided for such losses based on historical experience in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company generally retains a security interest in

Table of Contents

the related assets financed such that, in the event the Company would become obligated under the terms of the recourse or repurchase obligations, the Company would take title to the assets financed. The fair value of collateral held at September 30, 2023 was approximately $192.4 million based on Company estimates. The Company estimates the fair value of the collateral using information regarding the original sales price, the current age of the equipment and general market conditions that influence the value of both new and used lift trucks. The Company also regularly monitors the external credit ratings of the entities for which it has provided recourse or repurchase obligations. As of September 30, 2023, the Company did not believe there was a significant risk of non-payment or non-performance of the obligations by these entities; however, there can be no assurance that the risk may not increase in the future. In addition, the Company has an agreement with WF to limit its exposure to losses at certain eligible dealers. Under this agreement, losses related to $28.2 million of recourse or repurchase obligations for these certain eligible dealers are limited to 7.5% of their original loan balance, or $13.4 million as of September 30, 2023. The $28.2 million is included in the $138.7 million of total amounts subject to recourse or repurchase obligations at September 30, 2023.

Generally, the Company sells lift trucks through its independent dealer network or directly to customers. These dealers and customers may enter into a financing transaction with HYGFS or other unrelated third parties. HYGFS provides debt and lease financing to both dealers and customers. On occasion, the credit quality of a customer or credit concentration issues within WF may require the Company to provide recourse or repurchase obligations of the lift trucks purchased by customers and financed through HYGFS. At September 30, 2023, approximately $125.7 million of the Company's total recourse or repurchase obligations of $138.7 million related to transactions with HYGFS. In connection with the joint venture agreement, the Company also provides a guarantee to WF for 20% of HYGFS’ debt with WF, such that the Company would become liable under the terms of HYGFS’ debt agreements with WF in the case of default by HYGFS. At September 30, 2023, loans from WF to HYGFS totaled $1.2 billion. Although the Company’s contractual guarantee was $248.1 million, the loans by WF to HYGFS are secured by HYGFS’ customer receivables, of which the Company guarantees $125.7 million. Excluding the HYGFS receivables guaranteed by the Company from HYGFS’ loans to WF, the Company’s incremental obligation as a result of this guarantee to WF is $225.9 million, which is secured by 20% of HYGFS' customer receivables and other secured assets of $292.9 million. HYGFS has not defaulted under the terms of this debt financing in the past, and although there can be no assurances, the Company is not aware of any circumstances that would cause HYGFS to default in future periods.

Note 14—Equity and Debt Investments

The Company maintains an interest in one variable interest entity, HYGFS. HYGFS is a joint venture with WF formed primarily for the purpose of providing financial services to independent Hyster® and Yale® lift truck dealers and National Account customers in the United States and is included in the Americas segment. The Company does not have a controlling financial interest or have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of HYGFS. Therefore, the Company is not the primary beneficiary and uses the equity method to account for its 20% interest in HYGFS. The Company does not consider its variable interest in HYGFS to be significant.

The Company has a 50% ownership interest in SN, a limited liability company which was formed primarily to manufacture and distribute Sumitomo-branded lift trucks in Japan and export Hyster®- and Yale®-branded lift trucks and related components and service parts outside of Japan. The Company purchases products from SN under agreed-upon terms. The Company's ownership in SN is also accounted for using the equity method of accounting and is included in the JAPIC segment.

Eliminations	(5.6)		—		—		—
2023	$	1,001.2	$	716.5	$	183.9	$	51.6

Revenues increased 19.2% to $1,001.2 million in the third quarter of 2023 from $840.1 million in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in Lift Truck revenues was primarily due to higher unit and parts volumes in the Americas and improved pricing in all geographic regions. The improvement in revenue was partially offset by a decline in unit shipments in EMEA and JAPIC.

Bolzoni revenues increased in the third quarter of 2023 compared with the third quarter of 2022 mainly from higher volume and improved pricing.

Nuvera operations	(0.4)		—		—		—
2023	$	58.6	$	65.4	$	2.4	$	(2.7)

The Company recognized operating profit of $58.6 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared with an operating loss of $24.9 million in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in Lift Truck operating profit was primarily due to improved gross profit from higher pricing of $58.7 million, mainly in the Americas and EMEA, favorable material costs in the Americas, a shift in sales to higher margin lift trucks and higher unit and parts volumes in the Americas. The increase in gross profit was partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to increased employee-related costs, including incentive compensation, as well as higher product development, product liability and marketing costs.

Operating profit in the Americas increased primarily due to improved gross profit from higher pricing of $33.2 million, favorable material costs and higher unit and parts sales. The increase in gross profit was partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses primarily related to increased employee-related costs, including incentive compensation, as well as higher product development, product liability and marketing costs.

EMEA recognized operating profit of $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared with an operating loss of $13.2 million in the third quarter of 2022, primarily from higher gross profit from improved pricing of $25.1 million, partially offset by lower unit volume and higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

Bolzoni recognized operating profit of $2.9 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared with an operating loss of $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2022 primarily due to higher gross profit from higher sales volume and improved pricing.

The Company recognized net income attributable to stockholders of $35.8 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared with a net loss of $37.3 million in the third quarter of 2022. The improvement was primarily the result of higher operating profit (loss), partially offset by increased income tax and interest expense. See Note 5 of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the Company's income tax provision.

Revenues increased 20.6% to $3,091.1 million in the first nine months of 2023 from $2,563.1 million in the first nine months of 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher unit and parts volumes in the Americas, improved pricing and a shift in sales to higher-priced lift trucks in the Americas and EMEA.

Bolzoni revenues increased in the first nine months of 2023 compared with the first nine months of 2022 mainly from improved pricing and higher volume.

The following table identifies the components of change in operating profit for the first nine months of 2023 compared with the first nine months of 2022:


	Operating Profit (Loss)
			Lift truck
	HY		Americas		EMEA		JAPIC
2022	$	(58.9)	$	8.4	$	(35.4)	$	(10.6)


Increase (decrease) in 2023 from:
Lift truck gross profit	277.6		220.5		49.4		6.9
Lift truck selling, general and administrative expenses	(63.8)		(50.8)		(7.9)		(5.1)
Bolzoni operations	8.5		—		—		—
Nuvera operations	(3.4)		—		—		—
2023	$	160.0	$	178.1	$	6.1	$	(8.8)

The Company recognized an operating profit of $160.0 million in the first nine months of 2023 compared with an operating loss of $58.9 million in the first nine months of 2022. The increase in Lift Truck operating profit was primarily due to improved gross profit from higher pricing of $210.9 million, mainly in the Americas and EMEA, a shift in sales to higher margin lift trucks and higher unit and parts sales compared with the first nine months of 2022. These items were partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to increased employee-related costs, including incentive compensation, as well as higher product development, product liability and marketing costs.

Operating profit in the Americas increased primarily due to improved gross profit from higher pricing of $129.8 million, a shift in sales to higher margin lift trucks and increased unit and parts sales. These improvements were partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily related to higher employee costs, including incentive compensation, as well as higher product development, product liability and marketing costs.

EMEA's operating profit improved mainly due to improved gross profit from improved pricing of $78.2 million, partially offset by material cost inflation and manufacturing inefficiencies.

Table of Contents

JAPIC's operating loss improved to $8.8 million in the first nine months of 2023 from $10.6 million in the first nine months of 2022, primarily due to higher gross profit from a shift in mix to higher-margin products, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

Bolzoni's operating profit increased to $12.7 million in the first nine months of 2023 compared with $4.2 million in the first nine months of 2022 primarily due to higher gross profit from improved pricing, lower material costs and higher volumes. The increase in gross profit was partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily related to higher employee costs, including incentive compensation.

Nuvera's operating loss increased to $28.4 million in the first nine months of 2023 compared with $25.0 million in the first nine months of 2022 primarily from higher selling, general and administrative expenses primarily related to product development and increased employee-related costs, including incentive compensation.

The Company recognized net income attributable to stockholders of $100.7 million in the first nine months of 2023 compared with a net loss of $81.7 million in the first nine months of 2022. The improvement was primarily the result of the factors affecting operating profit (loss), partially offset by higher income taxes and interest expense.

Net cash used for investing activities	(19.8)		(27.2)		7.4

Cash flow before financing activities	$	85.3	$	7.1	$	78.2

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $70.8 million in the first nine months of 2023 compared with the first nine months of 2022, primarily as a result of higher net income partially offset by changes in working capital items. The changes in working capital were mainly due to a decrease in accounts payable and customer deposits received related to down payments on orders in the first nine months of 2023 compared with the first nine months of 2022.

The change in net cash used for investing activities during the first nine months of 2023 compared with the first nine months of 2022 was mainly due to the purchase of Bolzoni's noncontrolling interest in 2023 compared with the first installment purchase of the noncontrolling interest of Hyster-Yale Maximal Forklift (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd. in 2022.

Financing Activities

The Company has a $325.0 million secured, floating-rate revolving credit facility (the "Facility") that expires in June 2026 and a $225.0 million term loan (the "Term Loan"), which matures in May 2028. The Facility was amended in the second quarter of 2023 for the purpose of, among other items, (i) establishing a new tranche of revolving loans with aggregate commitments of $25.0 million under the Facility and (ii) changing the benchmark interest rate for U.S. dollar-denominated borrowings under the Facility from LIBOR to Term SOFR, each as defined in the Facility. The Term Loan was amended in the second quarter of 2023 for the purpose of changing the benchmark interest rate for borrowings under the Term Loan from LIBOR to Term SOFR, each as defined in the Facility. See Note 10 of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

The Facility can be increased up to $400.0 million over the term of the Facility in minimum increments of $10.0 million, subject to approval by the lenders. The obligations under the Facility are generally secured by a first priority lien on working capital assets of the borrowers and guarantors in the Facility, which includes but is not limited to cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and inventory, and a second priority lien on the present and future shares of capital stock, fixtures and general intangibles consisting of intellectual property. The approximate book value of assets held as collateral under the Facility was $1.2 billion as of September 30, 2023.

The Facility includes restrictive covenants, which, among other things, limit additional borrowings and investments of the Company subject to certain thresholds, as provided in the Facility. The Facility limits the payment of dividends and other restricted payments the Company may make unless certain total excess availability and/or fixed charge coverage ratio thresholds, each as set forth in the Facility, are satisfied. The Facility also requires the Company to achieve a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio when total excess availability is less than the greater of 10% of the total borrowing base, as defined in the Facility, and $20.0 million. At September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the Facility.

The new $25.0 million tranche will terminate on May 1, 2024 unless otherwise terminated prior to such date by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Facility. Commencing December 1, 2023, the new $25.0 million tranche will amortize on a monthly basis in the amount of $4.2 million per month.

PERSPECTIVES AND OUTLOOK

Market Commentary

Many external market factors, including geopolitical instability, most recently evidenced by the Israel/Gaza conflict, continue to create a significant amount of uncertainty within the global economic environment. As a result of this, as well as abnormally high volumes during the 2020 to 2022 pandemic period, market activity has been moderating in certain parts of the world across 2023, particularly in EMEA.

The latest publicly available lift truck market data indicates that new unit, second-quarter 2023 booking activity decreased in all major geographies except China and India compared with the robust prior-year levels. Internal company estimates suggest that third-quarter 2023 global lift truck market bookings continued to decrease compared with the prior year, with the pace of decline accelerating in the Americas and decelerating in EMEA.

Table of Contents

Looking ahead, the fourth-quarter 2023 global lift truck market is expected to decline from fourth-quarter 2022. In 2024, global market bookings are expected to be generally comparable to 2023 levels, with an anticipated first-half decline expected to be offset by a second-half increase. For both full-year 2023 and 2024, market unit volumes are projected to remain strong and above pre-pandemic levels in most regions.

Consolidated Strategic Perspective

The Company believes the improving 2023 results are due to actions taken since the global pandemic began. These actions include the implementation of key strategies, projects and significant process improvements, all of which better position the Company for substantial longer-term growth. The Company believes that its mature Lift Truck and Bolzoni businesses are the foundation for this improvement, while the Nuvera Fuel Cell business' substantial growth prospects are expected to be realized in future years.

Operational Perspectives - Lift Truck Business

The Company's third-quarter 2023 lift truck bookings decreased 15% from second-quarter 2023 and 12% from prior-year levels due to solid, but declining, global market demand and a continued company focus on booking orders with strong margins. Looking forward, fourth-quarter bookings are projected to increase year-over-year due to projected market share gains. In 2024, the Company expects bookings increases compared with 2023, after a moderate first-quarter 2024 decline, as a result of continued market share gains despite an overall flat global lift truck market. These anticipated increases are primarily the result of the Company's maturing strategic initiatives. Planned production increases combined with anticipated market level decreases in the first half of 2024 are expected to help the Company reduce its extended lead times and backlog closer to pre-pandemic levels over the course of 2024. However, given current expectations, improving lead times and backlog levels will likely remain above optimal levels for some time on some product lines. Certain lines, such as warehouse products, are expected to return to more normal lead time and backlog levels in 2024. The Company's extended backlog, valued at $3.5 billion, is almost a full year of revenue and should serve as an initial shock absorber for the business if bookings decline more than anticipated in 2024.

Consolidated fourth-quarter 2023 shipments are anticipated to decrease modestly compared with the prior-year period, with a moderate increase in Americas, led by anticipated higher production rates, expected to be more than offset by fewer EMEA shipments as a result of continuing product launch issues. Full-year 2024 production and shipment rates are expected to increase compared with 2023 as component constraints dissipate and the Company focuses on maintaining a full production pipeline across its facilities in a moderated market environment.

The trend of higher average unit backlog prices and margins continued in the third quarter largely due to benefits from prior-year pricing implemented to offset inflation. Third-quarter 2023 average booking prices were flat compared with second-quarter 2023 and declined modestly versus the prior year largely due to product mix. Material costs have generally stabilized. Forward economic indicators suggest some nominal inflationary increases, particularly for labor costs, in fourth-quarter 2023 and full-year 2024. The Company expects to maintain its strong price-to-cost ratio in the remainder of 2023 and into 2024 as the higher-priced backlog is shipped. Overall, the Company believes average unit margins will improve in fourth-quarter 2023 over the prior-year and remain at sound levels throughout 2024. Anticipated increases in labor and overhead costs are projected to erode the favorable price-to-cost ratio over 2024, resulting in modestly lower gross margins compared with 2023. The Company continues to monitor labor and material costs closely, as well as the impact of tariffs and competition, and will adjust forward pricing accordingly.

The factors outlined above, as well as the benefits from the Company's maturing strategic initiatives, are expected to lead to an increase in fourth-quarter 2023 Lift Truck revenues and operating profit compared with the prior year. Fourth-quarter 2023 operating profit is expected to decrease from the strong third-quarter due to an anticipated mix shift toward lower margin sales channels, higher labor and manufacturing costs and increased operating expenses. Looking forward, the Lift Truck business expects an increase in 2024 revenues, while operating profit is expected to be similar to 2023. These forecasts, however, are highly sensitive to, in particular, the impact of global supply chain adjustments and the Company's production capabilities.

Strategic Perspectives - Lift Truck

From a broad perspective, the Lift Truck business has three core strategies that are expected to transform the Company’s competitiveness, market position and economic performance over time:

•Provide products that improve customer productivity at the lowest cost of ownership, including for low-intensity applications. The Lift Truck business' capabilities in this area are expected to be enhanced by bringing to market a wide variety of vehicle innovations, including new modular and scalable product families, truck electrification projects and technology advancements in operator assist systems (OAS), power options and vehicle automation;

Table of Contents

•Be the leader in the delivery of industry- and customer-focused solutions by transforming the Company's sales approach to ensure it meets a wide variety of customer needs across a broad set of end markets; and

•Be the leader in independent distribution by focusing on effectively coordinating dealer and major account coverage, enhancing dealer excellence and ensuring outstanding dealer ownership globally.

The Company continues to make progress on its high priority projects. Over the past two years, the Company launched its heart-of-the-line modular, scalable 2- to 3.5-ton internal combustion engine lift trucks in the EMEA and Americas markets. The production ramp-up is occurring gradually given the current extended backlog. However, bookings and shipments accelerated in 2023. A fourth-quarter 2023 launch is expected for the JAPIC market. Similar enhancements to the 2- to 3.5-ton electric truck platforms are also expected over 2024 and 2025. The modular, scalable product platform is expected to enhance multiple areas of the business, including reducing supply chain costs, improving working capital levels and helping optimize the Company's manufacturing footprint, while providing customers with a more customizable product that better meets their needs.

The Lift Truck business has key projects which include electrifying trucks used for applications now dominated by internal combustion engine trucks that capitalize on advancements in electric powertrain options. The Company currently has its first electrified fuel cell Container Handler operating at the Port of Los Angeles. During the 2023 third quarter, the Company delivered an electrified fuel cell Reach Stacker to the Port of Valencia, Spain. Hyster-Yale anticipates delivering a new electrified fuel cell Terminal Tractor and an electrified fuel cell Empty Container Handler to a customer in Hamburg, Germany in the first half of 2024. The Company is exploring options for additional electrification projects within the European Union and the United States. The Company also has key projects focused on applying its technology advancements to additional OAS and automated product options. Notably, during third-quarter 2023, the Company entered into an agreement with a technology-service provider to co-develop further robotics software technology for automated lift truck solutions.

Operational and Strategic Perspectives - Bolzoni

Bolzoni anticipates a modest revenue decline in fourth-quarter 2023 compared with fourth-quarter 2022 resulting from a projected market decline. Despite the anticipated revenue decrease, operating profit is expected to increase over the prior year fourth quarter due to ongoing strict cost controls. Fourth-quarter 2023 operating profit is projected to be comparable to third-quarter 2023. In 2024, Bolzoni expects comparable revenues to 2023. Operating profit is expected to increase year-over-year as improved unit margins are anticipated to more than offset higher costs.

Bolzoni's core strategy is to be the leader in the attachments business. In this context, Bolzoni continues to concentrate on driving its "One Company - 3 Brands" approach globally, increasing its Americas business and focusing on strengthening its ability to serve key attachment industries and customers in global markets. As part of this approach, Bolzoni also intends to increase its sales, marketing and product capabilities in North America and Europe to support its industry-specific sales strategy.

Operational and Strategic Perspectives - Nuvera

Nuvera's core strategy is to be a leader in the heavy-duty fuel cell market. Nuvera continues to focus on placing 45kW and 60kW fuel cell engines in heavy-duty vehicle applications for which battery-only electrification does not provide an adequate solution. As a result, these applications are expected to have significant and nearer-term fuel cell adoption potential. Nuvera has announced several projects with various third parties to test Nuvera® engines in targeted applications, including the Port of Los Angeles and the Port of Valencia. Nuvera expects to have additional products being tested in bus applications in China and India, in marine applications in the Netherlands, and in a German port by mid-2024. Nuvera is also developing a new, larger 125kW fuel cell engine for heavier-duty applications, which is projected to be available in 2025, and plans to sell modular fuel cells for stationary and mobile generator applications.

During the fourth quarter of 2023 and in 2024, Nuvera plans to focus on increasing customer product demonstrations and customer bookings. Nuvera is expanding its presence in Europe and China. Recurring orders from current customers have been booked and are expected to result in higher sales in fourth-quarter 2023 and in 2024 compared with the prior year periods. The business also expects to generate a lower loss in fourth-quarter 2023 compared with 2022 largely due to anticipated higher shipments combined with lower costs due to the expected receipt of government funding for fuel-cell research and development. In 2024, Nuvera expects higher sales with moderately higher development costs, resulting in comparable operating results compared with 2023. The increased volume of engine demonstrations should significantly enhance the foundation for future fuel cell engine technology adoption and improved financial returns.

Consolidated Outlook

At the consolidated level, fourth-quarter 2023 operating profit and net income are expected to improve significantly over a profitable fourth-quarter 2022, although not to the level of third-quarter 2023. In 2024, the Company expects operating profit and net income to be similar to 2023. The Company made solid progress toward its 7% operating profit margin and greater than 20% return on total capital employed goals at both the Lift Truck and Bolzoni businesses in 2023, and further progress is expected in 2024. To meet these expectations, however, the Company will have to effectively manage its ongoing component and labor costs and achieve increased production levels.

The programs to reduce inventory and generate cash are anticipated to show further progress in fourth-quarter 2023 and 2024. The Company is committed to reducing its leverage and enhancing its cash flows through ongoing working capital action plans and continued discipline over capital expenditures and operating expenses. Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $42 million for full-year 2023. Working capital control continues to be an area of intense focus for the Company. Inventory levels remain elevated and above pre-pandemic levels but are slowly declining. Efforts to maximize the use of on-hand inventory are expected to help reduce excess inventory levels, especially in 2024. Supply constraints continue to be an issue intermittently, and labor constraints periodically cause certain production and inventory usage disruptions. However, the Company anticipates continued inventory improvements over the remainder of 2023 and 2024. As a result of these actions, the Company expects a significant increase in cash flow before financing activities for full-year 2023 compared with 2022, and further progress is expected in 2024.
