2. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements, included herein, have been prepared by the Company without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals, except as otherwise disclosed) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2016, and results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The consolidated balances as of December 31, 2015 were derived from audited financial statements but do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards for interim financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2015. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the year.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are stated at the amounts the Company’s customers are invoiced and do not bear interest. Accounts Receivable is reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. The Company’s estimate for the allowance for doubtful accounts related to trade receivables includes evaluation of specific accounts where the Company has information that the customer may have an inability to meet its financial obligations. The Company had allowances for doubtful accounts of $352 and $228 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
Inventory Valuation
Inventory consists of stock materials and equipment stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market. All equipment classified as inventory is available for sale. The Company records excess and obsolete inventory reserves. The estimated reserve is based upon specific identification of excess or obsolete inventories. Selling, general and administrative expenses are expensed as incurred and are not capitalized as a component of inventory.
Accrued Warranties
Warranty costs are accrued at the time revenue is recognized. The Company’s products are typically sold with a warranty covering defects that arise during a fixed period of time. The specific warranty offered is a function of customer expectations and competitive forces. The Equipment Distribution segment does not accrue for warranty costs at the time of sales, as they are reimbursed by the manufacturers for any warranty that they provide to their customers.
A liability for estimated warranty claims is accrued at the time of sale. The liability is established using historical warranty claim experience. Historical warranty experience is, however, reviewed by management. The current provision may be adjusted to take into account unusual or non-recurring events in the past or anticipated changes in future warranty claims. Adjustments to the initial warranty accrual are recorded if actual claim experience indicates that adjustments are necessary. Warranty reserves are reviewed to ensure critical assumptions are updated for known events that may impact the potential warranty liability.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue and related costs are recognized when title passes and risk of loss passes to our customers which generally occurs upon shipment depending upon the terms of the contract. Under certain contracts with our customers title passes to the customers when the units are completed. The units are segregated from our inventory and identified as belonging to the customer, the customer is notified that the units are complete and awaiting pick up or delivery as specified by the customer before income is recognized. Additionally, the customer is requested to sign an “Invoice Authorization Form” which acknowledges the contract terms and acknowledges that the customer has economic ownership and control over the unit. It also acknowledges that we are going to invoice the unit per terms of the contract. The Company insures any custodial risk that it may retain.
7
For FOB contracts, customers may be invoiced prior to the time customers take physical possession. Revenue is recognized in such cases only when the customer has a fixed commitment to purchase the units, the units have been completed, tested and made available to the customer for pickup or delivery, and the customer has authorized in writing that we hold the units for pickup or delivery at a time specified by the customer. In such cases, the units are invoiced under our customary billing terms, title to the units and risks of ownership pass to the customer upon invoicing, the units are segregated from our inventory and identified as belonging to the customer and we have no further obligations under the order. The Company insures any custodial risk that it may retain.
In addition, our policy requires in all instances certain minimum criteria be met in order to recognize revenue, specifically:
a) |
Persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; |
b) |
The price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; |
c) |
Collectability is reasonably assured; and |
d) |
We have no significant obligations for future performance. |
Interest Rate Swap Contracts—The Company enters into derivative instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk related to certain foreign term loans. Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date the contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in current earnings immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which case the effective portion of the gain or loss is recognized and is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedging instrument affects earnings (date of sale). The Company’s interest rate swap contracts are held by the PM Group and are intended to manage the exposure to interest rate risk related to certain term loans that PM has with certain financial institutions in Italy. These contracts have been determined not to be hedge instruments under ASC 815-10.
Litigation Claims
In determining whether liabilities should be recorded for pending litigation claims, the Company must assess the allegations and the likelihood that it will successfully defend itself. When the Company believes it is probable that it will not prevail in a particular matter, it will then make an estimate of the amount of liability based, in part, on the advice of legal counsel.
Income Taxes
The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of U.S. and foreign taxes in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date tax provision with the effective rate that the Company expects to achieve for the full year. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and records cumulative adjustments as necessary. The effective tax rate is based upon the Company’s anticipated earnings both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions.
Comprehensive Income
Reporting “Comprehensive Income” requires reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income includes, in addition to net earnings, other items that are reported as direct adjustments to stockholder’s equity. Currently, the comprehensive income adjustment required for the Company has two components. First is a foreign currency translation adjustment, the result of consolidating its foreign subsidiaries. The second component is a derivative instrument fair market value adjustment (net of income taxes) related to forward currency contracts designated as a cash flow hedge.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with guidance found in ASC 805, Business Combinations. The guidance requires consideration given, including contingent consideration, assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be valued at their fair market values at the acquisition date. The guidance further provides that: (1) in-process research and development will be recorded at fair value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset; (2) acquisition costs will generally be expensed as incurred, (3) restructuring costs associated with a business combination will generally be expensed subsequent to the acquisition date; and (4) changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense.
ASC 805 requires that any excess of purchase price over fair value of assets acquired, including identifiable intangibles and liabilities assumed be recognized as goodwill. In accordance with ASC 805, any excess of fair value of acquired net assets, including identifiable intangibles assets, over the acquisition consideration results in a bargain purchase gain. Prior to recording a gain, the
8
acquiring entity must reassess whether all acquired assets and assumed liabilities have been identified and recognized and perform re-measurements to verify that the consideration paid, assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been properly valued.
The results for PM Group and Columbia Tank are included in the Company’s results from their respective dates of acquisition of January 15, 2015 and March 12, 2015, respectively.
Reclassification
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year’s consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year’s presentation.
In conjunction with the adoption of new accounting standards, certain debt issuance costs at December 31, 2015, have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

In accordance ASC 805, Business Combinations, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are valued based on their estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition. The Company engaged a valuation expert and a tax advisor to provide guidance and assistance to management which was considered and in part relied upon in completing its purchase price allocation. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate estimated fair value of net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill. The following table summarizes the revised allocation of the PM acquisition consideration to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:

Contingent Liability . In accordance with ASC 805, the acquirer is to recognize the acquisition date fair value of contingent liability. The Company entered into an Option Agreement with one of the PM Group senior banks under which the bank will sell to the Company PM debt with a face value of €5,000. Under the Option Agreement, the bank shall receive €2,500 if PM has 2017 EBITDA, as defined in the agreement, of between €14,500 and €16,500, and €5,000 if 2017 EBITDA exceeds €16,500. If 2017 EBITDA, as defined in the agreement, is less than €14,500, the bank is to sell the debt to the Company for €0.001. Given the disparity between the EBITDA threshold and the Company’s projected financial results, it was determined that a Monte Carlo simulation analysis was appropriate to determine the fair value of contingent consideration. The probability weighted average payment was determined to be €1,093 or $1,270 at the date of acquisition. This amount is included in other long-term liabilities in the above table.
Non-recourse PM debt: Under the transaction, PM remains obligated for the following debt:

Non-interest bearing debt . In connection with the acquisition, the Company assumed non-interest bearing debt of €10,289. The fair value of the non-interest bearing debt was determined to be €8,829 or $10,435. The fair value of the non-interest bearing debt was calculated to equal the present value of future debt payments discounted at a market rate of return commensurate with similar debt instruments with comparable levels of risk and marketability. A rate of 5.24% was determined to be the appropriate rate following an assessment of the risk inherent in the debt issued and the market rate for debt of this nature using corporate credit ratings.
The interest rate swap derivative was valued at its fair value, which is based on quotes from a financial institution.
10
Tangible assets and liabilities: The tangible assets and liabilities were valued at their respective carrying values by PM, except for certain adjustments necessary to state such amounts at their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. Significant fair market adjustments were made to decrease accounts receivable by $260, increase inventory by $911, decrease fixed assets by $4,699 and to decrease liabilities by $345.
Intangible assets: There are three fundamental methods applied to value intangible assets outlined in FASB ASC 820. These methods include the Cost Approach, the Market Approach, and the Income Approach. Each of these valuation approaches were considered in our estimation of value.
Trade names and trademarks, patented and unpatented technology: Valued using the Relief from Royalty method, a form of both the Market Approach and the Income Approach. Because the Company has established trade names and trademarks and has developed patented and unpatented technology, we estimated the benefit of ownership as the relief from the royalty expense that would need to be incurred in absence of ownership.
Customer relationships: Because there is a specific earnings stream that can be associated with customer relationships, we determined the fair value of these relationships based on the excess earnings method, a form of the Income Approach.
Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess of total consideration paid over the fair value of net assets acquired. The recognition of goodwill of $30,173 reflects the inherent value in the PM reputation, which has been built since being founded in 1959 and the prospects for significant future earnings.
In calculating the Company’s deferred tax liabilities the fact that goodwill is not deductible was considered.
Acquisition transaction costs: Cost and expenses related to the acquisition have been expensed as incurred and recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. The Company incurred fees of $194 for legal services, $750 for acquisition related bonus payments, $347 for accounting services in connection with the prior year audit of PM financial statements and $294 for other costs related to the acquisition.
The results of the acquired PM operations have been included in our consolidated statement of operations since the acquisition date. PM is included in the Lifting segment for segment reporting purposes.
Columbia Tanks
On March 12, 2015 the Company’s subsidiary, Manitex Sabre, entered into an inventory purchase agreement and an equipment purchase agreement with Columbia Tanks LLC, an Indiana company and J.F. Henry, the “Member”, for the purchase of inventory and used manufacturing equipment. In a separate agreement with F.H. Associates, the Company entered into a three year lease of a 99,000 square foot manufacturing facility at an annual rent commencing at $240 per annum and increasing to $270 and $300 for the second and third years, respectively. The lease was terminated in September of 2016.

Seller Note . In connection with the inventory and equipment purchases, the Company issued two non-interest bearing notes for $450 and $390 that matured on August 31, 2016 and May 31, 2016, respectively. These two notes were fully paid at the maturity date. The fair value of Inventory Note and the Equipment Note was determined to be $436 and $378. The fair value of the notes was calculated to equal the present value of future debt payments discounted at a market rate of return commensurate with similar debt instruments with comparable levels of risk and marketability. A rate of 4.0% was determined to be the appropriate rate following an assessment of the risk inherent in the debt issued and the market rate for debt of this nature using corporate credit ratings.
Under the acquisition method of accounting, in accordance ASC 805, Business Combinations, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are valued based on their estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition. The purchase price allocation is preliminary and is subject to final review of inventory, fixed assets and related intangibles.

The foreign currency forward contracts liability of $74 is held by Liftking, a discontinued operation. |
In connection with the acquisition of PM, the Company recorded a contingent liability related to an Option Agreement with one of PM’s senior lenders. The agreement calls for a payment to be made to the lender based on PM’s 2017 EBITDA. It was determined that Monte Carlo simulation analysis is the appropriate way to determine the fair market value of the contingent liability. At June 30, 2016, the fair value was determined to be $330, and as result, a gain of $915 was recognized, which represents the difference between the updated fair value and the existing carrying value (including previous exchange rate adjustments). It was determined that the fair market value has not changed between June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2016.
12
ASC 820-10 classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
Level 1 |
|
— |
|
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; |
|
|
|
|
|
Level 2 |
|
— |
|
Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and |
|
|
|
|
|
Level 3 |
|
— |
|
Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). |
Fair value of the forward currency contracts are determined on the last day of each reporting period using observable inputs, which are supplied to the Company by the foreign currency trading operation of its bank and are Level 2 items.
5. Derivatives Financial Instruments
The Company’s risk management objective is to use the most efficient and effective methods available to us to minimize, eliminate, reduce or transfer the risks which are associated with fluctuation of exchange rates between the Canadian, Euro, Chilean Peso and the U.S. dollar.
Forward Currency Contracts
When the Company’s Canadian subsidiary received a significant new U.S. dollar order, management evaluated different options that were available to mitigate future currency exchange risks. The decision to hedge future sales is not automatic and is decided case by case. The Company only use hedge instruments to hedge firm existing sales orders and not estimated exposure, when management determined that exchange risks exceeds desired risk tolerance levels. The forward currency contracts used to hedge future sales were designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815-10 provided certain criteria are met. The Company’s Canadian subsidiary was sold on September 30, 2016.
Historically, the Company enters into forward currency exchange contracts in relationship such that the exchange gains and losses on the assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units’ functional currency would be offset by the changes in the market value of the forward currency exchange contracts it holds. The forward currency exchange contracts that the Company has to offset existing assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units’ functional currency have been determined not to be considered a hedge under ASC 815-10. The Company records at the balance sheet date the forward currency exchange contracts at its market value with any associated gain or loss being recorded in current earnings. Both realized and unrealized gains and losses related to forward currency contracts are included in current earnings and are reflected in the Statement of Income in the other income expense section on the line titled foreign currency transaction gains (losses). Items denominated in other than a reporting units functional currency includes certain intercompany receivables due from the Company’s Italian subsidiaries and accounts receivable and account payable of our Italian subsidiaries and their subsidiaries.
As required, forward currency contracts are recognized as an asset or liability at fair value on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings (date of sale). Gains or losses on cash flow hedges when recognized into income are included in net revenues. Gains and losses on the derivative instruments representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. The Company expects minimal ineffectiveness as the Company has hedged only firm sales orders and has not hedged estimated exposures. As of September 30, 2016, the Company had no outstanding forward currency contracts that were in place to hedge future sales. Therefore, there are currently no unrealized pre-tax gains or losses which will be reclassified from other comprehensive income into earnings during the next 12 months.
PM Group has an intercompany receivable denominated in Euros from its Chilean subsidiary. At September 30, 2016, the Company had entered into a forward currency exchange contract that matures on January 27, 2017. Under the contract the Company is obligated to sell 1,800,000 Chilean pesos for 2,392 euros. The purpose of the forward contract is to mitigate the income effect related to this intercompany receivable that results with a change in exchange rate between the Euro and the Chilean peso.
13
The Company uses financial instruments available on the market, including derivatives, solely to minimize its cost of borrowing and hedge the risk of interest rate and exchange rate fluctuation. In January 2009, prior to the January 15, 2015 acquisition date, PM entered into the following contract in order to hedge the interest rate risk related to its term loans with two financial institutions:
A contract signed by PM, for an original notional amount of € 20,000 (€ 20,000 at September 30, 2016), maturing on February 3, 2017 with interest payable every February 3 and August 3 each year. PM pays interest at a rate of 3.48% and receives from the counterparties interest at the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“Euribor”) for the period in question. An additional contract was signed by PM Group, for an original notional amount of € 482 (€ 414 at September 30, 2016), maturing on October 1, 2020 with interest paid monthly. PM pays interest at a rate of 3.90% and receives from the counterparties interest at the “Euribor” rate for the period in question if greater than 0.90%.
As of September 30, 2016, the Company had the following forward currency contracts and interest rate swaps:

2004 Equity Incentive Plan
In 2004, the Company adopted the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and subsequently amended and restated the plan on September 13, 2007, May 28, 2009 and June 2, 2016. The maximum number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the plan is 1,329,364 shares. The total number of shares reserved for issuance however, can be adjusted to reflect certain corporate transactions or changes in the Company’s capital structure. The Company’s employees and members of the board of directors who are not our employees or employees of our affiliates are eligible to participate in the plan. The plan is administered by a committee of the board comprised of members who are outside directors. The plan provides that the committee has the authority to, among other things, select plan participants, determine the type and amount of awards, determine award terms, fix all other conditions of any awards, interpret the plan and any plan awards. Under the plan, the committee can grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units, except Directors may not be granted stock appreciation rights,
17
performance shares and performance units. During any calendar year, participants are limited in the number of grants they may receive under the plan. In any year, an individual may not receive options for more than 15,000 shares, stock appreciation rights with respect to more than 20,000 shares, more than 20,000 shares of restricted stock and/or an award for more than 10,000 performance shares or restricted stock units or performance units. The plan requires that the exercise price for stock options and stock appreciation rights be not less than fair market value of the Company’s common stock on date of grant.
The Company awarded under the Amended and Restated 2004 Equity Incentive Plan a total of 203,850 restricted stock units to employees and directors during the nine months ended September 30. 2016. The restricted stock units are subject to the same conditions as the restricted stock awards except the restricted stock units will not have voting rights and the common stock will not be issued until the vesting criteria are satisfied.
The following table contains information regarding restricted stock units:

8. New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 outlines a new, single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. This new revenue recognition model provides a five-step analysis in determining when and how revenue is recognized. The new model will require revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, deferral of the effective date, which amends ASU 2014-09. As a result, the effective date is the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on the determination or reporting of its financial results.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,” (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 requires inventory be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value and options that currently exist for market value be eliminated. ASU 2015-11 defines net realizable value as estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. ASU 2015-11 should be applied prospectively. The Company is evaluating the impact adoption of this guidance will have on determination or reporting of its financial results.
18
In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17 (“ASU 2015-17”), Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. The amendments in ASU 2015-17 seek to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes and require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. ASU 2015-17 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early application permitted for all entities as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The main impact of adoption of the standard was the reclassification of current deferred tax assets that resulted in a reduction in deferred tax liabilities.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." The amendments in ASU 2016-01, among other things, require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e., securities or loans and receivables); and eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Consistent with current U.S. GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The update is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this update on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-05, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)” (“ASU 2016-05”). ASU 2016-05 provides guidance clarifying that novation of a derivative contract (i.e. a change in counterparty) in a hedge accounting relationship does not, in and of itself, require designation of that hedge accounting relationship. The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, with early adoption permitted. Adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-06, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)” (“ASU 2016-06”). ASU 2016-06 simplifies the embedded derivative analysis for debt instruments containing contingent call or put options by clarifying that an exercise contingency does not need to be evaluated to determine whether it relates to interest rates and credit risk in an embedded derivative analysis. The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, with early adoption permitted. Adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)” (“ASU 2016-08”). ASU 2016-08 further clarifies principal and agent relationships within ASU 2014-09. Similar to ASU 2014-09, the effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 is intended to simplify several aspects of accounting for share-based payment awards. The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” (“ASU 2016-10”). The amendments in ASU 2016-10 are expected to reduce the cost and complexity of applying the guidance on identifying promised goods or services in contracts with customers and to improve the operability and understandability of licensing implementation guidance related to the entity's intellectual property. Similar to ASU 2014-09, the effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 reduces the existing diversity in practice in financial reporting by clarifying existing principles in ASC 230, “Statement of Cash Flows,” and provides specific guidance on certain cash flow classification
19
issues. The effective date for ASU 2016-15 will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Intra-Entity Transfer of Assets Other than Inventory,” (“ASU 2016-16”). ASU 2016-16 requires recognition of current and deferred income taxes resulting from an intra-entity transfer of any asset (excluding inventory) when the transfer occurs. This is a change from existing GAAP which prohibits recognition of current and deferred income taxes until the asset is sold to a third party. The effective date for ASU 2016-16 will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
Except as noted above, the guidance issued by the FASB is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company evaluated its goodwill using quantitative Step 1 analysis at June 30 and September 30, 2016. The June 30, 2016 Step 1 calculations for the Equipment Distribution segment indicated impairment. Accordingly, a Step 2 valuation for the Equipment Distribution segment was completed and resulted in the Equipment Distribution segment’s goodwill being written off. The September 30, 2016 evaluation did not indicate any impairment. The determination of fair value requires the Company to make significant estimates and assumptions. If our progress in meeting these and other assumptions is slower or different than what was anticipated, it may impact our ability to meet the projections.

The liability is established using historical warranty claim experience. Historical warranty experience is, however, reviewed by management. The current provision may be adjusted to take into account unusual or non-recurring events in the past or anticipated changes in future warranty claims. Adjustments to the initial warranty accrual are recorded if actual claim experience indicates that adjustments are necessary. Warranty reserves are reviewed to ensure critical assumptions are updated for known events that may impact the potential warranty liability.

13. Credit Facilities and Debt
U.S. Credit Facilities
At September 30, 2016, the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries have a Loan and Security Agreement, as amended, (the “Loan Agreement”) with The Private Bank and Trust Company (“Private Bank”). The Loan Agreement provides a revolving credit facility with a maturity date of July 20, 2019. The aggregate amount of the facility is $35,000 through November 7, 2016, followed by a
21
facility reduction to $30,000 at November 8, 2016, followed by a further facility reduction to $28,500 at November 30, 2016, followed by a final facility reduction to $25,000 at December 31, 2016.
The maximum borrowing available to the Company under the Loan Agreement is limited to: (1) 85% of eligible receivables; plus (2) 50% of eligible inventory valued at the lower of cost or market subject to a $20,000 limit (limit is reduced to $17,500 at December 31, 2016); plus (3) 80% of eligible used equipment, as defined, valued at the lower of cost or market subject to a $2,000 limit. At September 30, 2016, the maximum the Company could borrow based on available collateral was capped at $27,977. At September 30, 2016, the Company had borrowed $21,403 under this facility. The indebtedness under the Loan Agreement is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets, except for the assets of certain of the Company’s subsidiaries.
The Loan Agreement provides that the Company can opt to pay interest on the revolving credit at either a base rate plus a spread, or a LIBOR rate plus a spread. The base rate spread ranges from 0.25% to 1.00% depending on the Senior Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan Agreement), but is fixed at 1.00% until January 20, 2017. The LIBOR spread ranges from 2.25% to 3.00% also depending on the Senior Leverage Ratio, but is fixed at 3.00% until January 20, 2017. Funds borrowed under the LIBOR option can be borrowed for period of one, two, or three months and are limited to four LIBOR contracts outstanding at any time. Base rate and 30 day LIBOR rates were 3.50% and 0.54%, respectively at the Private Bank at September 30, 2016. In addition, Private Bank assesses a 0.50% unused line fee that is payable monthly.
The Loan Agreement subjects the Company and its domestic subsidiaries to an Adjusted EBITDA covenant (as defined) of $1,500 at September 30, 2016 and $3,500 for all quarters starting December 31, 2016 through the end of the agreement. Additionally, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries are subject to a Fixed Charge Coverage ratio of 1.20 to 1.00 measured on a quarterly basis beginning March 31, 2017 through the term of the agreement. The Loan Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, merge or consolidate, dispose of assets, make investments, make acquisitions, pay dividends or make distributions, repurchase stock, in each case subject to customary exceptions for a credit facility of this size.
The Loan Agreement permits the Company to provide unsecured guarantees of indebtedness owed by CVS to foreign banks in respect to working capital financing, not to exceed the lessor of $9,000 or the amount of such indebtedness.
The Loan Agreement has a Letter of Credit facility of $3,000, which is fully reserved against availability.

CVS Debt
CVS Short-Term Working Capital Borrowings
At September 30, 2016, CVS had established demand credit facilities with twelve Italian banks.

The maximum amount outstanding is limited to 80% of the assigned accounts receivable if there is an invoice issued or 50% if there is an order/contract issued. The banks will evaluate each request to borrow individually and determine the allowable advance percentage and interest rate. In making its determination the bank considers the customer’s credit and location of the customer.
22

Pursuant to an intercreditor agreement dated as of December 19, 2014 among JPMCB, Garrison and ASV (“ASV Intercreditor Agreement”), the parties have agreed that (i) JPMCB shall have a first-priority security interest in substantially all personal property of ASV and (ii) Garrison shall have a first priority security interest in (a) substantially all real property of ASV and (b) a pledge of 100% of the equity interest in ASV issued to Company and to Terex. ASV’s loans are solely obligations of ASV and have not been guaranteed by the Company and are not collateralized by any assets outside of ASV.
ASV Revolving Loan Facility with JPMCB
On December 19, 2014 ASV entered into a $35,000 revolving loan facility as amended with JPMCB (“JPMCB Credit Agreement”) as the administrative agent, which loan facility includes two sub-facilities: (i) a $1,000 as amended sub-facility for letters of credit, and (ii) a $7,500 sub-facility for loans to be guaranteed by the Export-Import Bank of the United States of America (“Ex-Im Bank Loans”).
The $35,000 revolving loan facility is a secured financing facility under which borrowing availability is limited to existing collateral as defined in the agreement. The maximum amount available is limited to (1) the sum of 85% of eligible receivables, plus (2) the lesser of (i) 65% of eligible inventory valued at the lower of cost or market value or (ii) 85% of eligible inventory valued at the net orderly liquidation value, reduced by (3) (i) certain reserves determined by JPMCB, (ii) the amount of outstanding standby letters of credit issued under the JPMCB Credit Agreement and (iii) the amount of outstanding Ex-In Bank loans. The facility matures on December 19, 2019. At September 30, 2016, ASV had drawn $15,350 under the JPMCB Credit Agreement. The JPMCB Credit Agreement bears interest at ASV’s option at JPMCB’ prime rate plus a spread or an adjusted LIBOR rate plus a spread. The interest rate spread for prime rate is between 0.50% and 1.00% and for LIBOR the spread is between 1.50% and 2.00% in each case with the spread being based on the aggregate amount of funds available for borrowing by ASV under the JPMCB Credit Agreement, as defined in the JPMCB Credit Agreement. The base rate and LIBOR spread is currently 1.00% and 2.00%, respectively. Funds borrowed under
23
the LIBOR options can be borrowed for periods of one, two, three or six months. At September 30, 2016, the maximum ASV could borrow based on available collateral was capped at $21,293.
The indebtedness of ASV under the JPMCB Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all of ASV’s assets, but subject to the terms of the ASV Intercreditor Agreement. The facility contains customary limitations including, but not limited to, limitations on additional indebtedness, acquisitions, and payment of dividends. ASV is also required to comply with certain financial covenants as defined in the JPMCB Credit Agreement including maintaining a Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage ratio of not less than 1.10 to 1.0.
Under the JPMCB Credit Agreement, the banks are also paid a commitment fee payable in monthly installments equal to (i) the average daily amount of funds available but undrawn multiplied by (ii) an annual rate of 0.25%.
ASV Term Loan with Garrison
On December 19, 2014 ASV entered into a $40,000 term loan facility as amended with Garrison (“Garrison Credit Agreement”) as the administrative agent. A portion of the Garrison Credit Agreement was used to fund certain transaction costs and payments required by ASV under the ASV arrangement.
At September 30, 2016, ASV had a remaining principal balance of $32,500 (less $1,748 debt issuance cost, for a net debt of $30,752) under the Garrison Credit Agreement. The Garrison Credit Agreement bears interest, at a one-month adjusted LIBOR rate plus a spread of between 10.5% and 11.0%. The spread is based on the ratio of ASV’s total debt to its EBITDA, as defined in the Garrison Credit Agreement. The LIBOR spread is currently 11.0%. The interest rate for the period ending September 30, 2016 was 11.56%. Debt issuance costs offset against the Garrison term note totaled $1,748 at September 30, 2016 (resulting in an effective rate of 12.2%).
ASV is obligated to make quarterly principal payments of $500 commencing on April 1, 2015. Any unpaid principal is due on maturity, which is December 19, 2019. Interest is payable monthly.
The indebtedness of ASV under the Garrison Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all of ASV assets, but subject to the terms of the ASV Intercreditor Agreement.

Note 14. Convertible Notes
Related Party
On December 19, 2014, the Company issued a subordinated convertible debenture with a $7,500 face amount payable to Terex, a related party. The convertible debenture, is subordinated, carries a 5% per annum coupon, and is convertible into Company common stock at a conversion price of $13.65 per share or a total of 549,451 shares, subject to customary adjustment provisions. The debenture has a December 19, 2020 maturity date.
From and after the third anniversary of the original issuance date, the Company may redeem the convertible debenture in full (but not in part) at any time that the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock equals at least 130% of the Conversion Price (as defined in the debenture) for at least 20 of any 30 consecutive trading days. Following an election by the holder to convert the debenture into common stock of the Company in accordance with the terms of the debenture, the Company has the discretion to deliver to the holder either (i) shares of common stock, (ii) a cash payment, or (iii) a combination of cash and stock.
In accounting for the issuance of the note, the Company separated the note into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the estimated fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the conversion option was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the face value of the Note as a whole. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) is amortized to interest expense over the term of the note using the effective interest method with an effective interest rate of 7.5 percent per annum. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.
On December 19, 2014, the components of the note were as follows:
Liability component |
|
$ |
6,607 |
|
Equity component (a component of paid in capital) |
|
|
893 |
|
|
|
$ |
7,500 |
|
Additionally in connection with the transaction a $321 deferred tax liability was established and was recorded as a deduction to paid in capital. The deferred tax liability was recognized as the excess of the principal amount being amortized and charged to interest expenses that is not tax deductible.
As of September 30, 2016, the note had a remaining principal balance of $6,829 and an unamortized discount of $671. The difference between current unamortized discount and the $893 initially recorded represents $222 of amortization of excess discount.
Perella Notes
On January 7, 2015, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Perella Note Purchase Agreement”) with MI Convert Holdings LLC (which is owned by investment funds constituting part of the Perella Weinberg Partners Asset Based Value Strategy) and Invemed Associates LLC (together, the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue $15,000 in aggregate principal amount of convertible notes due January 7, 2021 (the “Perella Notes”) to the Investors. The Notes are subordinated, carry a 6.50% per annum coupon, and are convertible, at the holder’s option, into shares of Company common stock, based on an initial conversion price of $15.00 per share, subject to customary adjustments. Following an election by the holder to convert the debenture
26
into common stock of the Company in accordance with the terms of the debenture, the Company has the discretion to deliver to the holder either (i) shares of common stock, (ii) a cash payment, or (iii) a combination of cash and stock. Upon the occurrence of certain fundamental corporate changes, the Perella Notes are redeemable at the option of the holders of the Perella Notes. The Perella Notes are not redeemable at the Company’s option prior to the maturity date, and the payment of principal is subject to acceleration upon an event of default. The issuance of the Perella Notes by the Company was made in reliance upon the exemptions from registration provided by Rule 506 and Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.
In connection with the issuance of the Perella Notes, on January 7, 2015, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company has agreed to register the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Perella Notes. The Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to register the shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which was declared effective on February 23, 2015.
In accounting for the issuance of the note, the Company separated the note into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the estimated fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the conversion option was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the face value of the Note as a whole. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) is amortized to interest expense over the term of the note using the effective interest method with an effective interest rate of 7.5 percent per annum. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.
On January 7, 2015, the components of the note were as follows:
Liability component |
|
$ |
14,286 |
|
Equity component (a component of paid in capital) |
|
|

Additionally in connection with the transaction a $257 deferred tax liability was established and was recorded as a deduction to paid in capital. The deferred tax liability was recognized as the excess of the principal amount being amortized and charged to interest expenses is not tax deductible.
As of September 30, 2016, the note had remaining principal balance of $14,463 and an unamortized discount of $537. The difference between current unamortized discount and the $714 initially recorded represents $177 of amortization of excess discount. Debt issuance costs offset against this note totaled $416 at September 30, 2016.
Note 15. Legal Proceedings and Other Contingencies
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including product liability, employment related issues, and workers’ compensation matters which have arisen in the normal course of operations. The Company has product liability insurance with self- insurance retention that range from $50 to $500. ASV product liability cases that existed on date of acquisition have a $4,000 self-retention limit.
The Company has been named as a defendant in several multi-defendant asbestos related product liability lawsuits. In certain instances, the Company is indemnified by a former owner of the product line in question. In the remaining cases the plaintiff has, to date, not been able to establish any exposure by the plaintiff to the Company’s products. The Company is uninsured with respect to these claims but believes that it will not incur any material liability with respect to these claims.
When it is probable that a loss has been incurred and possible to make a reasonable estimate of the Company’s liability with respect to such matters, a provision is recorded for the amount of such estimate or the minimum amount of a range of estimates when it is not possible to estimate the amount within the range that is most likely to occur. The Company established reserves for several ASV and PM lawsuits in conjunction with the accounting for these two acquisitions.
Additionally beginning on December 31, 2011, the Company’s workmen’s compensation insurance policy has per claim deductible of $250 and aggregates of $1,000, $1,150, $1,325, $1,875 and $1,575 for 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016 policy years, respectively. The Company is fully insured for any amount on any individual claim that exceeds the deductible and for any additional amounts of all claims once the aggregate is reached. The Company currently has several workmen compensation claims related to injuries that occurred after December 31, 2011 and therefore are subject to a deductible. The Company does not believe that the contingencies associated with these worker compensation claims in aggregate will have a material adverse effect on the Company.
27
On May 5, 2011, Company entered into two separate settlement agreements with two plaintiffs. As of September 30, 2016, the Company has a remaining obligation under the agreements to pay the plaintiffs $1,425 without interest in 15 annual installments of $95 on or before May 22 of each year. On, February 3, 2016, the Company entered into another legal settlement with a single plaintiff for €640 ($719). The liability had been fully accrued and resulted in no gain or loss. The Company has paid €370 ($416). As of September 30, 2016 the Company has a remaining obligation under the agreement to pay the plaintiff €270 ($303) without interest. As of September 30, 2016, the Company has in 13 remaining monthly installments – one monthly installment of €30 ($34), followed by twelve monthly installments of €20 ($22).
It is reasonably possible that the “Estimated Reserve for Product Liability Claims” may change within the next 12 months. A change in estimate could occur if a case is settled for more or less than anticipated, or if additional information becomes known to the Company.

18. Income Taxes
The Company’s provision for income taxes consist of U.S. and foreign taxes in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date tax provision with the effective tax rate that the Company expects to achieve for the full year. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and records cumulative adjustments for changes in estimate as necessary. The estimated annual effective tax rate is based upon the Company’s anticipated earnings both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. The annual effective tax rate from continuing operations for 2016 (but excluding discrete items), is estimated to be (3.8)%.
The estimated annual effective tax rate from continuing operations for 2016 of (3.8)% is lower than the statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the mix of anticipated earnings both in U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, and projected current year losses for which no tax benefit is recognized as a result of our increase in the valuation allowance.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we evaluate whether it is more likely than not (more than 50%) that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those periods in which temporary differences become deductible and/or net operating losses can be utilized. We assess all positive and negative evidence when determining the amount of the net deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized. This evidence includes, but is not limited to, prior earnings history, scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies and projected future taxable income. Significant weight is given to positive and negative evidence that is objectively verifiable. As of June 30, 2016, we projected to be in a U.S. cumulative loss position during the three year period ending in December 31, 2016, which is considered to be a significant piece of negative evidence.
Based on these factors, most notably the projected three year cumulative loss, the Company is not recognizing a tax benefit for the portion of the projected 2016 tax loss that cannot be realized with a carryback claim for a refund of taxes paid in prior years and therefore increased our valuation allowance.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded income tax expense (benefit) from continuing operations of $453 and $(65), respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded an income tax (benefit) from continuing operations of $(3,813) and $(175), respectively.
The Company’s total unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2016 and 2015 were approximately $936 and $941, which, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective tax rate. Included in the unrecognized tax benefits is a liability for the PM Group’s
31
potential IRES and IRAP audit adjustments for the tax years 2009 – 2013. Depending upon the final resolution of the PM Group’s audit, the liability could be higher or lower than the amount recorded at September 30, 2016.
The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of U.S. and foreign taxes in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date tax provision with the effective rate that the Company expects to achieve for the full year. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and records cumulative adjustments for changes in estimate as necessary. The 2016 estimated annual effective tax rate is based upon the Company’s anticipated earnings both in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, and projected current year losses for which no tax benefit is recognized.
19. Discontinued Operations
On September 30, 2016, the Company completed the sale of Manitex Liftking, ULC, an Alberta unlimited liability corporation pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Liftking Purchase Agreement”) with Mi-Jack Products, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Liftking Acquisition ULC.
The Company received cash consideration of $14.0 million. The Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $9,503 on the sale including transaction expenses of $581. The pre-tax loss includes a non-cash portion related to intangible assets and goodwill write-offs of $2,904 and $3,687, respectively. The aforementioned intangible and goodwill represents an allocation of a portion of the Lifting segment’s intangibles and goodwill that existed on the date of sale. The allocation percentage was arrived at by computing the full value of the Lifting segment and subtracting the value of the cash consideration that the Company received related to the Liftking disposition. The Company did record an income tax benefit of $453 attributable to this transaction.

20. Impairment of Lift Venture Investment
In December 2014, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement pursuant to which Lift Ventures LLC was formed. The joint venture was formed to manufacture and sell certain products and components, including the Company's Schaeff electric forklift business, which was operated by the Company's Liftking subsidiary and certain other Liftking products. One of the other partners in the joint venture contributed design services which were to be used to develop additional new products for the joint venture.
As a result of the sale, in the third quarter, of the Company's Liftking subsidiary, Lift Ventures LLC will no longer have the right to sell Schaeff and Liftking products in the future. Additionally, as a result of certain financial difficulties experienced by the partner, who was to contribute design services, it will not be able to provide such services. As a result of these events, the Company has determined that its investment in the Lift Ventures has become impaired and has recognized an impairment charge of $5,647 to write off its entire investment in Lift Ventures LLC.
33
Manitex International, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries currently have a Loan Agreement with Private Bank.

|
• |
adding an Adjusted EBITDA covenant for the Company’s domestic subsidiaries (as defined) of $1,500 at September 30, 2016 and $3,500 for all quarters starting December 31, 2016 through the term of the agreement; and |

The Company’s Liftking subsidiary was sold on September 30, 2016, and is presented as a discontinued operation.
Economic Conditions
Beginning with the recent resurgence of the U.S. onshore oil industry, a significant portion of the Company’s revenues has been attributed to the North American energy sector. Crude oil prices fell sharply during the fourth quarter of 2014 and remained in the fifty dollar per barrel range through June 2015. After that point oil prices began to again erode significantly decreasing to under $30 dollar a barrel. As result, the number of oil rigs in service has dropped from approximately from 1,600 in January 2015 to 500 at the end of 2015.
As a result of this decrease in rig count, the oil and gas industry further curtailed purchasing that began in 2014 and began selling excess equipment into the general construction market, which further depressed the demand for boom trucks. We have recently observed a slight moderating of the sell-off of excess equipment by the energy sector and a modest increase in rig counts and are hopeful that the selloff of excess equipment by the energy sector will be largely completed by the end of 2016 or early 2017. The aforementioned factors resulted in a significant decrease in revenues during 2015 and during the first nine months of 2016 from the sale of boom trucks, mobile tanks and used equipment.
The market for a number of the Company’s products, including the PM knuckle boom cranes, ASV compact track loader skid steer loaders and port handling equipment have not been significantly affected by the decrease in oil prices. The markets for these products have either been stable or growing. In particular the market for knuckle boom cranes, including the North American market, is continuing to grow. PM currently has a very small share of the market for knuckle boom cranes in North America. The Company has started to manufacture knuckle boom cranes in the United State and is marketing them through the Company’s current distribution channels. The Company currently has a strong presence in North America for its boom trucks. The Company believes that it can significantly increase the Company’s share for knuckle boom cranes in North American. The Company believes this is an immediate opportunity that will continue to grow over time.
At the end of the quarter, the Company backlog was $46 million, including orders from ASV and PM that now comprise 36% of the total backlog at September 30, 2016.
Factors Affecting Revenues and Gross Profit
The Company derives most of its revenue from purchase orders from dealers and distributors. The demand for the Company’s products depends upon the general economic conditions of the markets in which the Company competes. The Company’s sales depend in part upon its customers’ replacement or repair cycles. Adverse economic conditions, including a decrease in commodity prices, may cause customers to forego or postpone new purchases in favor of purchasing used equipment or repairing existing machinery. Additionally, ASV subsidiaries are impacted by residential housing starts. CVS revenues are impacted in part by the timing of contract awards related to major port projects.
Gross profit varies from period to period. Factors that affect gross profit include product mix, production levels and cost of raw materials. Margins tend to increase when production is skewed towards larger capacity cranes.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2016 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2015
Net (loss) from continuing operations for the three month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015
For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 the Company had a net loss from continuing operations of $5.6 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, the net loss from continuing operations of $5.6 million consisted of revenue of $74.1 million, cost of sales of $62.5 million, research and development costs of $1.2 million, SG&A expenses of $11.4 million, interest expense of $2.7 million, foreign currency loss of $0.1 million, income tax benefit of $3.8 million and loss on non-marketable equity interest of $5.7 million.
For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the net loss from continuing operations of $0.6 million consisted of revenue of $84.5 million, cost of sales of $68.7 million, research and development costs of $1.1 million, SG&A expenses of $12.7 million, interest expense of $2.6 million, foreign currency transaction loss of $0.1 million, other expense of $0.1 million and income tax benefit of $0.2 million .
Net revenues and gross profit —For the three months ended September 30, 2016, net revenues and gross profit were $74.1 million and $11.7 million, respectively. Gross profit as a percent of revenues was 15.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2016. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, net revenues and gross profit were $84.5 million and $15.8 million, respectively. Gross profit as a percent of revenues was 18.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2015.
Net revenues decreased $10.3 million or 12.2% to $74.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $84.5 million for the comparable period in 2015. Revenues for the Lifting and ASV segments decreased by $6.9 million and $3.9 million or by 12.6% and 14.5%, respectively. Revenues for Equipment Distribution segment increased by $0.7 million or 24.0%
A substantial portion of the decrease in revenues for the Lifting segment is attributable to a decrease in sale of our specialized mobile storage tanks, a product line that is particularly sensitive to U.S. oil production. The remainder of the decrease is related to a decrease in revenues for our crane products, which are also impact but to a lesser degree by lower world oil prices. The aforementioned decreases were partially offset by an increase in revenues generated for container handling equipment, which is not sensitive to oil prices.
The decrease in the ASV segment revenues is principally due to a decrease in machine sales and secondarily due to a decrease in part sales. The machine sales decrease is due in large part to a decrease in Terex branded units. Two thirds of the decrease in part sales is attributed to a decrease in part sales to Caterpillar including undercarriages. Part sales to Caterpillar especially undercarriage sales have been volatile between periods.
The increase in Equipment Distribution sales is principally due to increased machine sales. The segment has made a concerted effort to sell inventory it held and on occasion has made price concessions to facilitate the sale.
Our gross profit percent decreased 3.0% to 15.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from 18.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease in gross margin percent is attributed to decreased gross margin percent in both the Lifting and Equipment Distribution segments partially offset by a marginally higher gross profit percent for the ASV segment. The gross profit percent for the Lifting segment was adversely impacted by decreased volume, less favorable product mix and a more aggressive pricing environment. The Equipment Distribution segment margin decreased as there were significant machine sales at lower margins, the result of a concerted effort to sell inventory held by the segment.
Research and development —Research and development was $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $1.1 million for the same period in 2015. Research and development expenditures were relatively consistent with prior period.
Selling, general and administrative expense —Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $11.4 million compared to $12.7 million for the comparable period in 2015, a decrease of $1.3 million. Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were favorably impacted by a $0.5 million favorable change in an estimate regarding a product liability claim as it was determine that the claim could be settled for less than what was reserved. The remaining $0.8 million decrease is principally attributed to cost reductions made in response decreased revenues and to lower variable selling expenses.
Operating (loss) income —For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had an operating loss of $1.0 million compared with an income of $2.0 million, respectively. The adverse change in operating income is the result of
37
decrease in gross profit of $4.2 million, the result of decreased in revenues and lower gross profit margin. The decrease in gross margin was partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in operating expenses.
Interest expense —Interest expense was $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $2.6 million for the comparable period in 2015, an increase of $0.1. Interest did not change significantly between periods.
Foreign currency transaction losses —For both the three month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had a foreign currency loss of $0.1 million.
Income tax — For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 the Company recorded an income tax (benefit) from continuing operations of $(3.8) and $(0.2) million, respectively. The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of U.S. and foreign taxes in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date tax provision with the effective rate that the Company expects to achieve for the full year. The annual effective tax rate from continuing operations for 2016 (but excluding discrete items,) is estimated to be approximately (3.8)%, while the actual annual effective tax rate for 2015 was 15.4%.
The 2016 estimated annual effective tax rate of (3.8)% is lower than the statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the mix of anticipated earnings both in U.S. and foreign jurisdictions and projected losses for which no tax benefit is recognized as a result of our increase in the valuation allowance.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we evaluate whether it is more likely than not (more than 50%) that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those periods in which temporary differences become deductible and/or net operating losses can be utilized. We assess all positive and negative evidence when determining the amount of the net deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized. This evidence includes, but is not limited to, prior earnings history, scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies and projected future taxable income. Significant weight is given to positive and negative evidence that is objectively verifiable. As of September 30, 2016, we projected to be in a U.S. cumulative loss position during the three year period ending in December 31, 2016, which is considered to be a significant piece of negative evidence.
Based on these factors, most notably the projected three year cumulative loss, the Company is not recognizing a tax benefit for the portion of the projected 2016 tax loss that cannot be realized with a carryback claim for a refund of taxes paid in prior years and therefore increased our valuation allowance.
Loss in non-marketable equity interest—-For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 the Company had a loss of $5.7 million and $0.04 million, respectively. In December 2014, Company entered into a joint venture agreement which formed Lift Ventures LLC. The joint venture was formed to manufacture and sell certain products and components, including the Company's Schaeff electric forklift business, which was operated by the Company's Liftking subsidiary and certain other Liftking products. One of the other partners in the joint venture contributed design services which were to be used to develop additional new products for the joint venture. As a result of the sale in the third quarter of the Company's Liftking subsidiary, Lift Ventures LLC will no longer have the right to sell Schaeff and Liftking products in the future. Additionally, as a result of certain financial difficulties experienced by the partner who was to contribute design services, it will not be able to provide such services. As a result of the these events, the Company has determined that its investment in the Lift Ventures has become impaired and has recognized a charge of $5.7 million to write off its entire investment in Lift Ventures LLC during the quarter ended September 30, 2016.
Net (loss) from continuing operations —For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 the Company had a net loss of $5.6 million and $0.6 million, respectively. The change is explained above.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015
Net (loss) from continuing operations for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 the Company had a net loss from continuing operations of $12.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 the net loss of $12.0 million consisted of revenue of $ 260.7 million, cost of sales of $217.0 million, research and development costs of $3.9 million, SG&A expenses of $37.8 million, interest expense of $8.7 million, interest expense related to write off of debt issuance costs of $1.4 million, foreign currency transaction loss of $0.8 million, other income of $3.1 million, loss of $5.8 million in a non-marketable equity investment and income tax expense of $0.4 million.
38
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the net loss of $0.3 million consisted of revenue of $276.8 million, cost of sales of $225.4 million, research and development costs of $3.9 million, SG&A expenses of $38.9 million, interest expense of $8.9 million, foreign currency transaction gains of $0.2 million, loss of $0.1 million in a non-marketable equity investment, other expense of $0.1 million and income tax benefit of $0.1 million.
Net revenues and gross profit —For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, net revenues and gross profit were $260.7 million and $43.8 million, respectively. Gross profit as a percent of revenues was 16.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, net revenues and gross profit were $276.8 million and $51.4 million, respectively. Gross profit as a percent of revenues was 18.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Net revenues decreased $16.1 million or 5.8% to $260.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $276.8 million for the comparable period in 2015. Revenues for the Lifting and ASV segments decreased by $6.0 million and $12.4 million or by 3.4% and 13.6%, respectively. Revenues for Equipment Distribution segment increased by $2.4 million or 22.7%. The 2016 results for Lifting segment includes a completed first quarter of revenues for PM Group, compared to seventy five days from the date of acquisition in the three months ended March 31, 2015. PM revenues for the first 15 days of 2015 were approximately $3.3 million. Taking this effect into account the Lifting segment revenues would have decreased by $19.4 million or 10.7%
All the product lines within the Lifting segment, except for the container handling product line, experienced year over year revenues declines. The decline in revenues is attributed to the effect that lower oil prices is having on our markets. The container product line revenues are not impacted by oil prices and increased by approximately 6.9% year over year.
ASV revenues decline is attributable to a $9.5 million reduction in sales of undercarriages and parts to Caterpillar and 5.5% decrease in machine sales. The decrease in sales to Caterpillar is due to a slowdown in the Caterpillar production volumes of multi-terrain track loaders that use our undercarriage. A decrease in private labeled products is the principal reason for the decline in machine sales. ASV continues to expand its own dealer network and is becoming less dependent on private labeled products. Approximately 80% of the machine sales for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were through ASV managed distribution.
Equipment Distribution segment revenue increase is primarily the result of the sale of equipment made during the first quarter of 2016 which was sold at zero margin with purpose of expanding the segment’s rental fleet operations and the segment’s concerted effort during the third quarter to sell inventory it held via price concessions to facilitate the sale.
Our gross profit percent decreased 1.8% to 16.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from 18.67% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease in gross margin percent is attributed to decrease gross margin percent in both the Lifting and Equipment Distribution segments partially offset by a marginally higher gross profit percent for the ASV segment. The gross profit percent for the Lifting segment was adversely impacted by decreased volume, less favorable product mix and a more aggressive pricing environment. The Equipment Distribution segment margin decrease is principally due to the sale of equipment at zero margin during the first quarter and sale of equipment sold at lower margins during the third quarter to move equipment that was held by the segment.
ASV gross margin percent improved modestly due to a favorable mix of higher capacity machines versus lower sales of skid steer machines that have a lower average gross profit percent, as well as improved net pricing from increased sales into the ASV distribution channel. The margin percent also benefited from our cost reduction efforts which resulted in favorable purchase price variances and lower warranty costs.
Research and development —Research and development was $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $3.9 million for the same period in 2015.
Selling, general and administrative expense —Selling, general and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $37.8 million compared to $38.9 million for the comparable period in 2015, a decrease of $1.1 million. The decrease is related to a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter 2016 compared to the third 2015 which is explained above.
Operating income —For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 the Company had operating income of $2.1 million and $8.5 million, respectively. The adverse change in operating income is the result of decrease in gross profit of $7.6 million, the result of decreased in revenues and lower gross profit margin. The decrease in gross margin was partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in operating expenses.
39
Interest expense —Interest expense was $8.7 million (excluding write off deferred financing costs) and $8.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. Interest expense decreased as the favorable impact that resulted from a decrease in debt was partially offset by increased interest rates for our United States credit facilities (during the first six months of 2016) and for the ASV term loan.
Interest expense included an additional $1.4 million for deferred financing costs which were expensed as associated debt was refinanced in the second quarter of 2016.
Foreign currency transaction losses and gains —For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company had a foreign currency loss of $0.8 million compared to a gain of $0.2 million for the comparable period in 2015. As stated in the past, the Company attempts to purchase forward currency exchange contracts such that the exchange gains and losses on the assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units’ functional currency will be offset by the changes in the market value of the forward currency exchange contracts it holds. Currency risks can be reduced but not eliminated in part because the Company has not been able to identify a strategy to effectively hedge the currency risks related to the Argentinian peso. The Company records at the balance sheet date the forward currency exchange contracts at their market value with any associated gain or loss being recorded in current earnings as a currency gain or loss.
A substantial portion of the 2016 loss is attributable to exchange losses related to the Argentinian peso. As previously stated, the Company has not been able to identify a strategy to effectively hedge currency risks related to the Argentinian peso. The 2016 currency loss also reflects the recognition of deferred loss of $0.2 million related to an intercompany receivable. The loss had been previously deferred in other comprehensive income as there was an intercompany receivable that was not expected to be repaid. The repayment of the receivable resulted in the recognition of the previously deferred loss.
The currency gain for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is principally related to currency gains at PM from the first quarter of 2015 which was partially offset by currency losses during the remainder of 2015.
Income tax — For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 the Company recorded an income tax expense (benefit) from continuing operations of $0.5 and $(0.1) million, respectively. The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of U.S. and foreign taxes in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date tax provision with the effective rate that the Company expects to achieve for the full year. The annual effective tax rate from continuing operations for 2016 (but excluding discrete items), is estimated to be approximately (3.8)%, while the actual annual effective tax rate for 2015 was 15.4%.
The 2016 estimated annual effective tax rate from continuing operations of (3.8)% is lower than the statutory rate of 35% primarily due to a mix of anticipated earnings both in U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, and projected current year losses for which no tax benefit is recognized as a result of our increase in the valuation allowance.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we evaluate whether it is more likely than not (more than 50%) that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those periods in which temporary differences become deductible and/or net operating losses can be utilized. We assess all positive and negative evidence when determining the amount of the net deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized. This evidence includes, but is not limited to, prior earnings history, scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies and projected future taxable income. Significant weight is given to positive and negative evidence that is objectively verifiable. As of September 30, 2016, we projected to be in a cumulative loss position during the three year period ending in December 31, 2016, which is considered to be a significant piece of negative evidence.
Based on these factors, most notably the projected three year cumulative loss, the Company is not recognizing a portion of the projected 2016 tax loss that cannot be realized with carryback claim for a refund of taxes paid in prior years and therefore increased our valuation allowance.
Other income— For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, other income of $3.1 million is principally attributed to two items: (1) the recognition of a gain of $2.2 million on the sale of certain intellectual property (see note 17 for further details), and (2) the Company recognized a gain of $0.9 million when it calculated the fair market value of a contingent liability associated with the PM acquisition.
Loss in non-marketable equity interest—For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 the Company had a loss of $5.8 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The increase is due to $5.6 million charge related to Lift Venture joint venture which was recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2016. See the three month discussion above for further details regarding the charge.
40
Net (loss) from continuing operations — For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 the Company had a net loss of $12.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The change is explained above.

Net revenues
Net revenues decreased $6.9 million to $47.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $54.8 million for the comparable period in 2015. A substantial portion of the decrease in revenues for this segment is attributable to a decrease in sale of our specialized mobile storage tanks, a product line that is particularly sensitive to U.S. oil production. The remainder of the decrease is related to a decrease in revenues for our crane products, which are also impacted but to a lesser degree by lower world oil prices. The aforementioned decreases were partially offset by an increase in revenues generated for container handling equipment, which is not sensitive to oil prices.
Net revenues decreased $6.1 million to $171.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $178.0 million for the comparable period in 2015. All the product lines within this segment, except for the container handling product line, experienced year over year revenues declines. The decline in revenues is attributed to decreased demand from end markets related in large part to lower oil prices. The container product line revenues are not impacted by oil prices and increased by approximately 6.9% year over year. The 2016 results for this segment includes a complete first quarter of revenues for PM Group, compared to seventy five days from the date of acquisition in 2015. PM revenues for the first 15 days of 2015 were approximately $3.3 million.
Operating (loss) income and operating margins
For the three month period operating income decreased approximately $3.6 million to $(0.5) million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 or (1.1)% of net revenues from $3.1 million or 5.6% of net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2015 The decrease in operating income is attributed to a decrease in gross profit, the impact of having lower sales revenues and a lower gross profit percentage for 2016 as compared to 2015.
Operating income of $4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was equivalent to 2,8% of net revenues compared to $9.9 million or 5.6% of revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. As stated above, the decrease in operating income is attributed to a decrease in gross profit, the impact of having lower sales revenues and a lower gross profit percentage for 2016 as compared to 2015.

Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were $23.0 million compared to $26.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Net revenues of $23.0 million were $3.9 million lower than the third quarter of 2015. The decrease in the ASV segment revenues is principally due to a decrease in machine sales and secondarily due to a decrease in part sales. The machine sales decrease is due in large part to a decrease in Terex branded units. Two thirds of the decrease in part sales is attributed to a decrease in part sales to Caterpillar including undercarriages. Part sales to Caterpillar especially undercarriage sales have been volatile between periods.
Net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $78.8 million compared to $91.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Net revenues of $78.8 million were $12.4 million lower than the comparable 2015 period. ASV revenues decline is attributable to a $9.5 million reduction in sales of undercarriages and parts to Caterpillar and 5.5% decrease in machine sales. The decrease in sales to Caterpillar is due to a slowdown in the Caterpillar production volumes of multi-terrain track loaders that use our undercarriage. A decrease in private labeled products is the principal reason for the decline in machine sales. ASV continues to expand its own dealer network and is becoming less dependent on private labeled products. Approximately 80% of the machine sales for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were through ASV managed distribution.
Operating income and operating margins
Operating income of $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was equivalent to 7.4% of net revenues compared to $1.4 million or 5.1% of revenues in the three months ended September 30, 2015. The improvement in operating income is attributable to a decrease in operating expenses which more than offset a decrease in gross profit of $0.2 million. The decrease in gross profit is entirely attributed to a decrease in revenues as the gross profit percent improved modestly. The decrease in operating expenses is principally due to a $0.5 million favorable adjustment to the reserve for accrued product liability claims.
For the nine month period operating income decreased approximately $0.5 million to $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 or 6.1% of net revenues from $5.3 million or 5.8% of net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease in operating profit is attributed to a decrease in gross profit of $1.4 million offset by a decrease in operating expense of $0.9 million. The decrease in gross profit is entirely attributed to a decrease in revenues as the gross profit percent improved modestly. The decrease in operating expenses includes a $0.5 million favorable adjustment to the reserve for accrued product liability claims. Approximately half of the remaining decrease of $0.4 million is the result of lower Terex distribution and cross marketing and Service agreement charges, the result of lower sales of Terex branded product. The remaining $0.2 is attributable to various other items.

Net revenues
Net revenues increased $0.7 million to $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $3.0 million for the comparable period in 2015. The increase in Equipment Distribution sales is principally due to increased machine sales. The segment has made a concerted effort to sell inventory it held and on occasion has made price concessions to facilitate the sale.
Net revenues increased $2.3 million to $12.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $10.4 million for the comparable period in 2015. The Equipment Distribution segment revenue increase is primarily the result of the sale of equipment made during the first quarter of 2016 which was sold with purpose of expanding the segment’s rental fleet operations and the segment’s concerted effort during the third quarter to sell inventory it held.
42
Operating (loss) income and operating margins
The Equipment Distribution segment had an operating loss of $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The operating loss for two periods as a percent of revenue is roughly comparable. The 2016 period did not benefit from the increased revenues as equipment was sold at reduced margins in 2016.
The Equipment Distribution segment had an operating loss of $1.6 million and income of $0.01 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The expanded operating loss in 2016 is attributable to a decrease in gross margin of $1.2 million. Although sales increase between years, gross margin declined principally due to the sale of equipment at zero margin during the first quarter and sale of equipment sold at lower margins during the third quarter to move equipment that was held by the segment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents were $6.0 million at September 30, 2016 compared to $8.6 million at December 31, 2015. In addition, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility on July 20, 2016, which matures on July 20, 2019. The Company had approximately $6.6 million available under the credit facility on September 30, 2016. Additionally, ASV has a revolving credit facility, which is for its sole use. ASV has a revolving credit facility with approximately $5.9 million of availability.
At September 30, 2016, CVS had established demand credit facilities with twelve Italian banks. Under the facilities, CVS can borrow up to €0.3 million ($0.4 million) on an unsecured basis and additional amounts as advances against orders, invoices and letter of credit with a total maximum facilities (including the unsecured portion) of €22.1 million ($24.9 million). The maximum amount outstanding is limited to 80% of the assigned accounts receivable if there is an invoice issued or 50% if there is an order/contract. The banks will evaluate each request to borrow individually and determine the allowable advance percentage and interest rate. In making its determination the bank considers the customer’s credit and location of the customer. At September 30, 2016, the banks had advanced CVS €12.2 million ($13.8 million) and had issued performance bonds which total €2.5 million ($2.9 million), which also count against the maximum that can be borrowed under these facilities.
At September 30, 2016, the PM Group had established working capital facilities with seven Italian and six South American banks. Under these facilities, the PM Group can borrow $26.7 million against orders, invoices and letters of credit. At September 30, 2016, the PM Group had received advances of $19.9 million. Future advances are dependent on having available collateral.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, term debt repayments of $11.0 million were made.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, total debt (before the offset of deferred bank fees) increased by $2.4 million to $169.3 million at September 30, 2016 from $166.9 million at December 31, 2015.

Future availability under credit facilities
As stated above, the Company had cash of $6.0 million and approximately $6.6 million available to borrow under its North American credit facilities. ASV has a revolving credit facility with approximately $5.9 million of availability which is for its sole use.
CVS and the PM Group have their own working capital facilities. As stated above, any future advances against the Italian facilities are dependent on having available collateral. Additionally, the Company is permitted to make limited advances to the Italian operations if needed under the Company’s credit facilities.
The Company needs cash to fund normal working capital needs and to make scheduled debt payments as shown in the above table. Both the United States credit facilities are asset based. The maximum the Company may borrow under either facility is the lower of the credit line or the available collateral, as defined in the credit agreements. Collateral under the agreements consists of stated percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory.
45
Under the collateral formulas in the credit facilities inventory collateral is equal to a stated percent of eligible inventory (generally ranging from 50% to 65%) and caps total borrowing against our inventory. If our revenues were to increase significantly in the future, the provision limiting borrowing against inventory may result in additional cash constraints. If this were to occur, we would attempt to negotiate higher inventory caps with our banks. There is, however, no assurance that the banks would agree to increase the caps.
The Company expects cash flows from operations and existing availability under the current revolving credit facilities, nevertheless, will be adequate to fund future operations. If in the future, we were to determine that additional funding is necessary, we believe that it would be available. There is, however, no assurance that such financing will be available or, if available, on acceptable terms.
We will likely need to raise additional capital through debt or equity financings to fund any future acquisitions. There is no assurance that such financing will be available or, if available, on acceptable terms.
2016
Operating activities consumed $15.6 million of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 comprised of net loss of $20.3 million, non-cash items that totaled $24.4 million and changes in assets and liabilities, which consumed $19.7 million. The principal non-cash items are loss on sale of discontinued operations of $9.1 million, depreciation and amortization of $8.9 million, loss in non-marketable equity interest of $5.8 million, amortization of deferred financing costs of $2.3 million offset by the gain of $2.2 million on disposal of intellectual property. Increases and decreases in other non-cash items largely netted to a $0.5 million add back. Cash proceeds from the sale of discontinued operations and from the sale of intellectual property are included in the investing activities discussion below.
The change in assets and liabilities consumed $19.7 million. The changes in assets and liabilities had the following impact on cash flows: accounts receivable consumed $11.6 million, inventory consumed $4.4 million, prepaid expenses generated $0.8 million, other assets generated $0.2 million, accounts payable consumed $5.3 million, accrued expenses consumed $3.1 million, other current liabilities generated $2.4 million, other long-term liabilities generated $0.3 million, and discontinued operations provided $1.5 million in cash. The increase in accounts receivable is largely due to the $9.1 million increase at CVS. The increase relates to the timing of cash receipts from several large customers at CVS. These payments have been largely collected subsequent to quarter end and, as such, are deemed collectible at September 30, 2016. The fluctuation in the remaining assets and liabilities are within a range that would normally be expected to occur.
Investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 generated $14.8 million of cash. The Company received $14.0 million from the sale of Liftking and $2.2 million when the terminal tractor product line was sold. The Company used $1.6 million of cash to purchase machinery and equipment. Other investing activities netted to $0.2 million in cash generation.
Financing activities consumed $3.5 million in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Cash was consumed by note repayments of $11.0 million, note revolver repayments of $10.7 million, and payment of debt issuance costs of $1.0 million. Cash was generated by increases in borrowing under the working capital facilities of $13.2 million, new borrowings of $3.3 million, and by $4.1 million from a sales and lease back transaction. Other financing activities netted to $1.2 million in cash consumption.
2015
Operating activities consumed $5.5 million of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 comprised of net income of $0.6 million, non-cash items that totaled $11.3 million and changes in assets and liabilities, which consumed $17.4 million. The principal non-cash items are depreciation and amortization of $9.0 million, share based compensation of $1.2 million and amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.8 million. Other non-cash items in aggregate equal $0.3 million.
The change in assets and liabilities which consumed $17.4 million in cash is principally attributed to paying taxes on the conversion of ASV to an LLC for which a payable of $16.5 million had been established at December 31, 2014. Changes in other assets and liabilities consumed an additional $0.9 million. The changes in assets and liabilities had the following impact on cash flows: accounts receivable generated $14.1 million, inventory consumed $6.6 million, prepaid expenses consumed $3.0 million, accounts payable consumed $2.9 million, accrued expenses consumed $4.9 million, other current liabilities generated $0.2 million, and other long-term liabilities generated $2.6 million. The decrease in accounts receivable is the result of collecting accounts receivable faster, and due to the fact that sales for the current quarter are lower when compared to sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 when adjusted for a acquisitions. Inventory increased as our crane operations built a number of cranes with a value of approximately $3.2 million. The Company believes having cranes available for immediate shipment in the current market is a competitive advantage. The remaining increase was at certain of our other operations whose revenues have increased or are expected to increase. The increase in prepaid expenses and other is due to an increase in income tax receivables, and the increase in unrealized gains associated with forward currency contracts that the Company holds. Forward currency contracts are valued at their fair market values at the balance sheet date
46
with any gains being included in prepaid expenses and other. The decrease in accounts payable is due to timing of vendor payments and raw material purchases. Together, accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities consumed $2.3 million of cash. These two line items are being discussed together as the increase in other long-term liability is principally due to a reclassifications of liabilities previously included in accrued expenses. The net decrease in accrued expenses principally relates to a $1.0 million decrease in the provision for management bonuses and changes in other accrued expense items.
Investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 consumed $15.7 million of cash including $13.7 million used for the acquisition of businesses and $1.9 million to purchase equipment. The equipment purchases were of a routine nature and none of them individually were material.
Financing activities generated $22.0 million in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The Company generated $27.9 million net of expenses to finance the PM acquisition by issuing a $15.0 convertible note and entering into a $14.0 million term loan. The $14.0 million term debt provides for quarterly principal payment of $0.5 beginning on April 1, 2015. At September 30, 2015 the Company has made the scheduled debt due through January 1, 2016 or $2.0 million. The Company has made additional payments against the $14.0 million term loan of $4.0 million. Other financing activities not discussed, in the aggregate generated $0.1 million of cash.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Recently Issued Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 outlines a new, single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. This new revenue recognition model provides a five-step analysis in determining when and how revenue is recognized. The new model will require revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, deferral of the effective date, which amends ASU 2014-09. As a result, the effective date is the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on the determination or reporting of its financial results.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,” (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 requires inventory be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value and options that currently exist for market value be eliminated. ASU 2015-11 defines net realizable value as estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. ASU 2015-11 should be applied prospectively. The Company is evaluating the impact adoption of this guidance will have on determination or reporting of its financial results.
In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17 (“ASU 2015-17”), Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. The amendments in ASU 2015-17 seek to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes and require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. ASU 2015-17 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early application permitted for all entities as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company has not determined the full impact of implementation of this standard, but believes it will not be material to net income. The Company believes that the main impact of adoption of the standard will be the reclassification of current deferred tax assets that will result in a reduction in deferred tax liabilities.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." The amendments in ASU 2016-01, among other things, require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e., securities or loans and receivables); and eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” (“ASU 2016-02”) requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Consistent with current U.S. GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The update is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this update on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-05, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815),” (“ASU 2016-05”). ASU 2016-05 provides guidance clarifying that novation of a derivative contract (i.e. a change in counterparty) in a hedge accounting relationship does not, in and of itself, require designation of that hedge accounting relationship. The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, with early adoption permitted. Adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-06, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815),” (“ASU 2016-06”). ASU 2016-06 simplifies the embedded derivative analysis for debt instruments containing contingent call or put options by clarifying that an exercise contingency does not need to be evaluated to determine whether it relates to interest rates and credit risk in an embedded derivative analysis. The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, with early adoption permitted. Adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net),” (“ASU 2016-08”). ASU 2016-08 further clarifies principal and agent relationships within ASU 2014-09. Similar to ASU 2014-09, the effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 is intended to simplify several aspects of accounting for share-based payment awards. The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing,” (“ASU 2016-10”). The amendments in ASU 2016-10 are expected to reduce the cost and complexity of applying the guidance on identifying promised goods or services in contracts with customers and to improve the operability and understandability of licensing implementation guidance related to the entity's intellectual property. Similar to ASU 2014-09, the effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” (“ASU 2016-10”). The amendments in ASU 2016-10 are expected to reduce the cost and complexity of applying the guidance on identifying promised goods or services in contracts with customers and to improve the operability and understandability of licensing implementation guidance related to the entity's intellectual property. Similar to ASU 2014-09, the effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 reduces the existing diversity in practice in financial reporting by clarifying existing principles in ASC 230, “Statement of Cash Flows,” and provides specific guidance on certain cash flow classification
48
issues. The effective date for ASU 2016-15 will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Intra-Entity Transfer of Assets Other than Inventory,” (“ASU 2016-16”). ASU 2016-16 requires recognition of current and deferred income taxes resulting from an intra-entity transfer of any asset (excluding inventory) when the transfer occurs. This is a change from existing GAAP which prohibits recognition of current and deferred income taxes until the asset is sold to a third party. The effective date for ASU 2016-16 will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
Except as noted above, the guidance issued by the FASB is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company entered into three 60 month equipment operating leases in a sales and lease back transaction and received $4.1 million during the first quarter of 2016.
Item 3—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The Company’s market risk disclosures have not materially changed since the 2015 Form 10-K was filed. The Company’s quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk are incorporated by reference from Part II, Item 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Item 4—Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and the Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2016.
Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) were effective as of September 30, 2016 to provide reasonable assurance that (1) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports 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, and (2) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
The effectiveness of any system of controls and procedures is subject to certain limitations, and, as a result, there can be no assurance that our controls and procedures will detect all errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be attained.
49
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including product liability and workers’ compensation matters which have arisen in the normal course of operations. The Company has product liability insurance with self-insurance retention that ranges from $50 thousand to $0.5 million. ASV product liability cases that existed on date of acquisition have a $4 million self-retention limit. The Company has a $250 thousand per claim deductible on worker compensation claims and aggregates of $1.2 million, $1.3 million, $1.9 million, and $1.6 million for 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016 policy years, respectively. Certain cases are at a preliminary stage and it is not possible to estimate the amount or timing of any cost to the Company. However, the Company does not believe that these contingencies, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company. Reserves have been established for several liability cases related to the ASV and PM acquisitions. When it is probable that a loss has been incurred and possible to make a reasonable estimate of the Company’s liability with respect to such matters, a provision is recorded for the amount of such estimate or the minimum amount of a range of estimates when it is not possible to estimate the amount within the range that is most likely to occur.
As of the date of this filing, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Item 2—Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
The Company’s credit agreement with Comerica Bank directly restricts the Company’s ability to declare or pay dividends without Comerica’s consent. In addition, pursuant to the Company’s credit agreement with Comerica and other lenders, the Company must maintain as specified in the agreements certain fixed coverage ratios and debt to EBITDA ratios.

As previously disclosed, on July 20, 2016, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the “Loan Agreement”) with The Private Bank and Trust Company (“Private Bank”). The Loan Agreement provides the Company with a revolving credit facility, which has a maturity date of July 20, 2019. The Loan Agreement was subsequently amended by a First Amendment dated as of August 2, 2016 and a Second Amendment dated as of September 30, 2016.
On November 8, 3016, the parties to the Loan Agreement entered into a third amendment to the Loan Agreement (the “Third Amendment”). The main modifications to the Loan Agreement resulting from the Third Amendment are as follows:
|
• |
a reduction of the maximum amount of the facility to $30,000 at November 8, 2016, followed by a further facility reduction to $28,500 at November 30, 2016, followed by a final facility reduction to $25,000 at December 31, 2016; |
|
• |
the addition of an Adjusted EBITDA covenant for the Company’s domestic subsidiaries (as defined) of $1,500 at September 30, 2016 and $3,500 for all quarters starting December 31, 2016 through the term of the agreement; and |
|
• |
the elimination of the testing of the Fixed Charge Coverage ratio covenant for September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2016. |
The foregoing description of the Third Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 10.4 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and incorporated by reference herein.
