THE MANITOWOC COMPANY, INC.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022
1. Company and Basis of Presentation
The Manitowoc Company, Inc. (“Manitowoc” or the “Company”) was founded in 1902 and has over a 120-year tradition of providing high-quality, customer-focused products and support services to its markets. Headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States, Manitowoc is one of the world's leading providers of engineered lifting solutions. Manitowoc, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, designs, manufactures, markets, distributes, and supports comprehensive product lines of mobile hydraulic cranes, lattice-boom crawler cranes, boom trucks, and tower cranes under the Aspen Equipment, Grove, Manitowoc, MGX Equipment Services, National Crane, Potain, and Shuttlelift brand names. The Company serves a wide variety of customers, including dealers, rental companies, contractors, and government entities, across the petrochemical, industrial, commercial construction, power and utilities, infrastructure, and residential construction end markets. Due to the ongoing and predictable maintenance needed by cranes, as well as the high cost of crane downtime, Manitowoc’s aftermarket support operations provide the Company with a consistent stream of recurring revenue.
The Company has three reportable segments, the Americas segment, the Europe and Africa ("EURAF") segment and Middle East and Asia Pacific (“MEAP”) segment. The Americas segment includes the North America and South America continents. The EURAF reporting segment includes the Europe and Africa continents, excluding the Middle East region. The MEAP reporting segment includes the Asia and Australia continents and the Middle East region. The segments were identified using the “management approach,” which designates the internal organization that is used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Refer to Note 17, “Segments” for additional information.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the cash flows for the same three-month periods, and the financial position as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and except as otherwise discussed, such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. The audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 was derived from the audited annual financial statements. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year and do not contain information included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2022. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations dealing with interim financial statements. However, the Company believes that the disclosures made in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K.
All amounts, except per share data and share amounts, are in millions throughout the tables in these notes unless otherwise indicated.
2. Recent Accounting Changes and Pronouncements
In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-04, "Disclosure of Supplier Financing Program Obligations.” The amendments in this ASU require that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2023. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
7
3. Net Sales
The Company defers revenue when cash payments are received in advance of satisfying the related performance obligation. These amounts are recorded as customer advances in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The table below shows the change in the customer advances balance for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

The fair value of the $300.0 million senior secured second lien notes due on April 1, 2026, with an annual coupon rate of 9.000% (the “2026 Notes”), was approximately $301.1 million as of March 31, 2023. Refer to Note 11, “Debt,” for a description of the 2026 Notes and the related carrying value.
The Company endeavors to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company estimates the fair value of its 2026 Notes based on quoted market prices of the instruments; because these markets are typically actively traded, the liabilities are classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term variable debt, including any amounts outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility, approximate fair value, without being discounted as of March 31, 2023 due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
FX Forward Contracts are valued through an independent valuation source which uses an industry standard data provider, with resulting valuations periodically validated through third-party or counterparty quotes. As such, these derivative instruments are classified within Level 2. Refer to Note 5, “Derivative Financial Instruments,” for additional information.
5. Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company’s risk management objective is to ensure that business exposures to risks are minimized using the most effective and efficient methods to eliminate, reduce, or transfer such exposures. Operating decisions consider these associated risks and, whenever possible, transactions are structured to avoid or mitigate these risks.
8
From time to time, the Company enters into FX Forward Contracts to manage the exposure on forecasted transactions denominated in non-functional currencies and to manage the risk of transaction gains and losses associated with assets/liabilities in currencies other than the functional currency of certain subsidiaries. Certain of these FX Forward Contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. To the extent these derivatives are effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the derivatives’ fair value are not included in current earnings but are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI"). These changes in fair value are reclassified into earnings as a component of cost of sales, as applicable, when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings. In addition, if the forecasted transaction is no longer probable, the cumulative change in the derivatives’ fair value is recorded as a component of other income (expense) – net in the period in which the transaction is no longer considered probable of occurring. No amounts were recorded related to forecasted transactions no longer being probable during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
The Company had FX Forward Contracts with aggregate notional amounts of $84.4 million and $87.7 million in U.S. dollar equivalent as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The aggregate notional amount outstanding as of March 31, 2023 is scheduled to mature within one year. The FX Forward Contracts purchased are denominated in various foreign currencies. Net unrealized gains, net of income tax, recorded in AOCI were $2.1 million and $5.4 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
The net gains (losses) recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for FX Forward Contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 are summarized as follows:

On March 25, 2019, the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Loan Parties”) entered into a credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A as administrative and collateral agent and certain financial institutions party thereto as lenders, providing for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Revolving Credit Facility”) of up to $275.0 million. The borrowing capacity under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility is based on the value of inventory, accounts receivable and certain fixed assets of the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties’ obligations under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are secured on a first-priority basis, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, by substantially all of the personal property and fee-owned real property of the Loan Parties. The liens securing the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are senior in priority to the second-priority liens securing the obligations under the 2026 Notes and the related guarantees. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility includes a $75.0 million letter of credit sub-facility, $10.0 million of which is available to the Company’s German subsidiary that is a borrower under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility.
On June 17, 2021, the Company amended the ABL Credit Agreement to adjust certain negative covenants which reduced restrictions on the Company's ability to expand its rental business. On May 19, 2022, the Company further amended the ABL Credit Agreement to (i) extend the maturity date to May 19, 2027 (subject to a springing maturity date of December 30, 2025 if the 2026 Notes have not been repaid in full or refinanced prior to December 30, 2025), (ii) permit the inclusion, subject to certain limitations, of the crane rental assets of certain subsidiaries in the borrowing base used to calculate availability under the ABL Credit Agreement, (iii) permit separate financing of crane rental assets not included in the borrowing base and (iv) replace U.S. dollar London Inter-bank Offered Rate with interest rates based on the secured overnight financing rate plus a credit spread adjustment (“SOFR”).
Borrowings under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate using either the Alternative Base Rate or SOFR plus the spread set forth below. The variable interest rate is based upon the average availability as of the most recent determination date as follows:
Average quarterly availability |
Alternative base rate spread |
SOFR spread |
≥ 50% of Aggregate Commitment |
0.25% |
1.25% |
< 50% of Aggregate Commitment |
0.50% |
1.50% |
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had borrowings on the ABL Revolving Credit Facility of $70.0 million and $80.0 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, the spreads for SOFR and Eurodollar, and Alternative Base Rate borrowings were 1.25% and 0.25%, respectively, with excess availability of approximately $201.8 million, which represents revolver borrowing capacity of $275.0 million less $70.0 million of borrowings outstanding and $3.2 million of U.S. letters of credit outstanding.
As of March 31, 2023, the Company had other indebtedness outstanding of $9.6 million that had a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 4.1%. This debt includes balances on local credit lines and other financing arrangements.
On March 25, 2019, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an indenture with U.S. Bank National Association as trustee and notes collateral agent, pursuant to which the Company issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes with an annual coupon rate of 9.000%. Interest on the 2026 Notes is payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year. The 2026 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured second lien basis, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries that is either a guarantor or a borrower under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility or that guarantees certain other debt of the Company or a guarantor. The 2026 Notes and the related guarantees are secured on a second-priority basis, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, by pledges of capital stock and other equity interests and other security interests in substantially all of the personal property and fee-owned real property of the Company and of the guarantors that secure obligations under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility.
Both the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and the 2026 Notes include customary covenants which include, without limitation, restrictions on, the Company’s ability and the ability of the Company’s restricted subsidiaries to incur, assume or guarantee additional debt or issue certain preferred shares, pay dividends on or make other distributions in respect of the Company’s capital stock or make other restricted payments, make certain investments, sell or transfer certain assets, create liens on certain assets to secure debt, consolidate, merge, sell, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and designate the Company’s subsidiaries as unrestricted. Both the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and the 2026 Notes also include customary events of default. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility has customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, that all such representations and warranties are true and
12
correct, in all material respects, on the date of the borrowing, including representations as to no material adverse change in the Company’s business or financial condition since December 31, 2018.
Additionally, the ABL Revolving Credit Facility contains a covenant requiring the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio under certain circumstances set forth in the ABL Credit Agreement.
As of March 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all affirmative and negative covenants in its debt instruments, inclusive of the financial covenants pertaining to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and 2026 Notes. Based upon management’s current plans and outlook, the Company believes it will be able to comply with these covenants during the subsequent twelve months.
12. Accounts Receivable Factoring
The Company has two non-U.S. accounts receivable financing programs with no maximum availability and one U.S. accounts receivable financing program with maximum availability of $27.0 million. Transactions under the U.S. and non-U.S. programs were accounted for as sales in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing.” Under these financing programs, the Company has the ability to sell eligible receivables up to the maximum limit.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cash proceeds from the factoring of accounts receivable qualifying as sales were $36.0 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, cash proceeds from the factoring of accounts receivable qualifying as sales were $33.3 million.
Financing charges associated with the factoring of receivables qualifying as sales are included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Financing charges incurred from the factoring of accounts receivable qualifying as sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were immaterial.
13. Income Taxes
The Company’s income before income taxes include income from both U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The annual effective tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due to results of foreign operations that are subject to income taxes at different statutory rates. In addition, tax expense is impacted by losses in both the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions where no tax benefit can be realized.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $4.2 million and $6.5 million, respectively. The decrease in the Company’s provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the prior year is due to a change in the jurisdictional mix of income which reflects a reduction of losses in jurisdictions where no tax benefit can be realized.
The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, was unchanged at $9.1 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Equity compensation awards for which total employee proceeds from exercise exceed the average fair value of the same equity incentive instrument over the period have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share during periods with net income, and accordingly, are excluded from diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Anti-dilutive equity instruments of
13
682,930 and 588,050 common shares were excluded from the computation of diluted net earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
No cash dividends were declared or paid during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
15. Equity
Authorized capital consists of 75.0 million shares of $0.01 par value common stock and 3.5 million shares of $0.01 par value preferred stock. None of the preferred shares have been issued.
As of March 31, 2023, the Company has $4.1 million remaining under an authorization from the Board of Directors to purchase up to $30.0 million of the Company’s common stock at management’s discretion. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company repurchased 191,846 shares of the Company's common stock for $3.5 million under this authorization.

16. Stock-Based Compensation
Equity compensation awards may be granted to certain eligible employees or non-employee directors. A detailed description of the awards granted prior to 2023 is included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The total number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for awards under the Company’s 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan is 7,477,395 shares. The total number of shares of the Company’s common stock still available for issuance as of March 31, 2023 is 3,304,056 shares.
Stock-based compensation expense was $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The Company reports stock-based compensation expense within engineering, selling, and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense over the award’s vesting period, subject to the retirement, death or disability provisions of the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan.
The Company granted 478,411 and 378,623 restricted stock units inclusive of 77,576 and 56,640 director awards during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The restricted stock units granted to employees vest in three annual increments over a three-year period beginning on the grant date and director awards vest immediately on the grant date.
A total of 233,409 and 198,334 performance shares units were issued by the Company to employees during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Performance share units vest after three years and are earned based on the extent to which performance goals are met over the applicable performance period. The performance goals and the applicable performance period vary for each grant year.
The performance goals for the performance share units granted in 2023 are weighted 60% on the 3-year average of the Company’s adjusted EBITDA percentage from 2023 to 2025 and 40% on cumulative non-new machine sales from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025. The Company defines non-new machine sales as parts sales, used crane sales, rental revenue, service revenue and other revenue. The 2023 performance share units include a +/-20% modifier weighted on total shareholder return relative to a defined peer group of companies during the three-year performance period, not to exceed 200% of target shares granted.
The performance goals for the performance share units granted in 2022 are weighted 60% on the 3-year average of the Company’s adjusted EBITDA percentage from 2022 to 2024 and 40% on non-new machine sales for the year ending December
15
31, 2024. The 2022 performance share units include a +/-20% modifier weighted on total shareholder return relative to a defined peer group of companies during the three-year performance period, not to exceed 200% of target shares granted.
17. Segments
The Company reports segment information based on the “management” approach. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by the Chief Executive Officer, who is also the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), for making decisions about the allocation of resources and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable operating segments.
The Company has three reportable segments: Americas, EURAF, and MEAP. The Company aggregates certain of its operating segments into reportable segments.
The CODM evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on net sales and operating income. Segment net sales are recognized in the geographic region the product is sold. Operating income for each segment includes net sales to third parties, cost of sales directly attributable to the segment, and operating expenses directly attributable to the segment. Manufacturing variances generated within each operating segment are maintained in each segment’s operating income. Operating income for each segment excludes other income and expense and certain expenses managed outside the operating segments. Costs excluded from segment operating income include various corporate expenses such as stock-based compensation expenses, income taxes, nonrecurring charges and other separately managed general and administrative costs. The Company does not include intercompany sales between segments for management reporting purposes. The CODM does not evaluate performance of the reportable segments based on total assets.
The following table shows information by reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

18. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business which have not been fully resolved. The outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain. When a loss related to a legal proceeding or claim is probable and reasonably estimable, the Company accrues its best estimate for the ultimate resolution of the matter.
As of March 31, 2023, various product-related lawsuits were pending. To the extent permitted under applicable law, all of these lawsuits are insured with self-insurance retention levels. The Company’s self-insurance retention levels have varied over the last 10 years. As of March 31, 2023, the largest self-insured retention level for new occurrences currently maintained by the Company is $3.0 million per occurrence and applies to product liability claims arising in North America.
Product liability reserves are recorded as other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and were $8.5 million and $9.4 million, respectively. These reserves were estimated using a combination of actual case reserves and actuarial methods. Based on the Company’s experience in defending product liability claims, management believes the current reserves are adequate for estimated case resolutions on aggregate self-insured claims and insured claims. Any recoveries from insurance carriers are dependent upon the legal sufficiency of claims and solvency of insurance carriers.
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had reserves of $56.4 million and $58.0 million, respectively, for warranty and other related claims included in product warranties and other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Certain of these warranty and other related claims involve matters in dispute that ultimately are resolved by negotiation, arbitration, or litigation. Refer to Note 19, “Guarantees,” for further information.
It is reasonably possible that the estimates for warranty and other related claims, product liability, asbestos-related claims, and other various legal matters may change based upon new information that may arise or matters that are beyond the scope of the Company’s historical experience. Presently, there are no reliable methods to estimate the amount of any such potential changes. The ultimate resolution of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
17
In July 2017, the Company received an Information Request from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“U.S. EPA”) relating to the sales of cranes manufactured between January 1, 2014 and July 31, 2017 and the Company’s related participation in the Transition Program for Equipment Manufacturers (the “TPEM” program). The TPEM program allowed equipment manufacturers to delay installing engines meeting Tier 4 final emission standards in their products, subject to certain percentage allowance restrictions. The Company has provided, and continues to provide, information to the U.S. EPA and the U.S. Department of Justice (“U.S. DOJ”) on the approximately 1,420 engines included in the Company’s cranes relating to the TPEM program and other certification matters. The Company is engaged in confidential discussions with the U.S. EPA and U.S. DOJ with respect to these matters.
The total recorded estimated liability in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets is $14.9 million, as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Other than the foregoing, the Company is unable to provide further meaningful quantification as to the final resolution of these matters. However, the Company calculated the statutory maximum penalties under the Clean Air Act to be approximately $174.0 million. The Company believes it has strong legal and factual defenses and will vigorously defend any allegations of noncompliance and the factors that could apply in the assessment of any civil penalty. Final resolution of these matters may have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
19. Guarantees
The Company periodically enters into transactions with customers that provide for buyback commitments. The Company evaluates each agreement at inception to determine if the customer has a significant economic incentive to exercise the buyback option. If it is determined that the customer has a significant economic incentive to exercise that right, the revenue is deferred and the agreement is accounted for as a lease in accordance with ASC Topic 842 “Leases” (“Topic 842”). If it is determined that the customer does not have a significant economic incentive to exercise that right, then revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer. The revenue deferred related to buyback obligations accounted for under Topic 842 included in other current and non-current liabilities as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $26.4 million and $27.3 million, respectively. The total amount of buyback commitments given by the Company and outstanding as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $41.5 million and $42.5 million, respectively. These amounts are not reduced for amounts the Company would recover from the repossession and subsequent resale of the cranes. The buyback commitments expire at various times through 2032. The Company also has various loss guarantees with maximum liabilities of $13.1 million and $15.0 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These amounts are not reduced for amounts the Company would recover from the repossession and subsequent resale of the cranes securing the related guarantees.
In the normal course of business, the Company provides its customers a warranty covering workmanship, and in some cases materials, on products manufactured by the Company. Such warranties generally provide that products will be free from defects for periods ranging from 12 months to 60 months. In addition, the Company may incur other warranty related costs outside of its standard warranty period. Costs for other warranty-related work are recorded in the period a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Below is a table summarizing the warranty and other warranty related work for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

The revenue deferred related to extended warranty periods included in other current and non-current liabilities as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $6.9 million and $6.6 million, respectively.
20. Employee Benefit Plans
The Company provides certain pension, health care, and death benefits to eligible retirees and their dependents. The funding mechanism for such benefits varies based on the country where the plan is located and the related plan. Eligibility for pension
18
coverage is based on retirement qualifications. Healthcare benefits may be subject to deductibles, co-payments, and other limitations. The Company reserves the right to modify benefits unless prohibited by local laws or regulations.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, including the financial statements, accompanying notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations therein, and the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
All dollar amounts are in millions throughout the tables included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations unless otherwise indicated.
Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information
All of the statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than historical facts, are forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the statements made in the “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” As a general matter, forward-looking statements are those focused upon anticipated events or trends, expectations and beliefs relating to matters that are not historical in nature. The words “could,” “should,” “may,” “feel,” “anticipate,” “aim,” “preliminary,” “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “intent,” “plan,” “will,” “foresee,” “project,” “forecast,” or the negative thereof or variations thereon, and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.

Current Events
Inflation and Interest Rate Environment
The Company was negatively impacted by inflation in wages, logistics, energy, raw material and component costs for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The Company has implemented price increases and provisional pricing strategies to mitigate the impact of cost inflation on margins and continues to actively monitor costs. There is a delay, however, in the realization of pricing due to long lead times of orders in the backlog, exacerbated by global supply chain and logistics constraints. In response to high inflation, the U.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks around the globe, increased interest rates throughout 2022 and in the first quarter of 2023. While the pace of interest rate increases began to slow in the first quarter of 2023, elevated interest rates along with global macroeconomic uncertainty could impact our customer's decisions to purchase cranes. Further inflationary pressure could increase our input costs and negatively impact our margins if we cannot obtain a corresponding increase in the pricing of our products. Furthermore, persistent inflation may prompt additional governmental monetary policy response, such as continued interest rate increases by central banks, that in combination with higher pricing could negatively impact customer demand for our products. Continuing or worsening inflation may have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Supply Chain, Labor and Logistics Constraints
The Company continues to actively monitor global supply chain, labor and logistics constraints which had a negative impact on the Company's ability to timely source parts and complete and ship units for the three months ended March 31, 2023. While the Company has experienced some relief of the supply chain and logistics constraints, supply chains for certain key components remain distressed. The Company continues to actively monitor and manage supply chain constraints through alternative sourcing of parts and adapting production to limit waste and inefficiencies in the facilities. Continuing or worsening supply chain, labor and logistics constraints may have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Curtailment of Operations in Russia
As of March 31, 2023, the Company's operations in Russia have been substantially curtailed. The Company expects future charges of $5.0 million to $10.0 million related to the non-cash write-off of foreign currency adjustments recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
22
Segment Operating Performance
The Company manages its business primarily on a geographic basis. The Company has three reportable segments: the Americas segment, EURAF segment, and MEAP segment. Further information regarding the Company’s reportable segments can be found in Note 17, “Segments,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Americas
Americas segment net sales increased 22.5% for three months ended March 31, 2023 to $264.4 million from $215.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher new machine sales, non-new machine sales and pricing actions. While backlog was higher year-over-year, supply chain constraints impacted the Company's ability to produce and ship certain products.
Americas segment operating income increased $22.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $28.5 million from $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher net sales, favorable product mix and the impact of pricing actions.
EURAF
EURAF segment net sales decreased 0.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $178.2 million from $179.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower new machine sales, partially offset by higher non-new machine sales and pricing actions. EURAF segment net sales was unfavorably impacted by $8.0 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
EURAF segment operating income decreased 68.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $3.6 million from $11.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to unfavorable new machine product mix and higher material and transportation costs, as well as higher labor costs in cost of sales and engineering, selling and administrative expenses. EURAF segment operating income was unfavorably impacted by $0.1 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
MEAP
MEAP segment net sales increased 2.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $65.7 million from $63.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. MEAP segment net sales was unfavorably impacted by $3.2 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
MEAP segment operating income decreased 34.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $8.6 million from $13.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to higher labor and administrative costs and $4.8 million of income recorded in the prior year related to the partial recovery of the previously written-off long-term note receivable from the 2014 divestiture of the Company's Chinese joint venture, partially offset by higher net sales. MEAP segment operating income was unfavorably impacted by $0.4 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Orders and Backlog
Backlog represents the dollar value of orders which are expected to be recognized in net sales in the future. Orders are included in backlog when an executed binding contract with a price that has a floor has been received but has not been recognized in net sales. Orders and backlog are not measures defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and our methodology for determining orders and backlog may vary from the methodology used by other companies. Management uses orders and backlog for capacity and resource planning. We believe this information is useful to investors to provide an indication of our future revenues.
Orders for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased 9.0% to $524.8 million from $481.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher demand in the Americas segment, partially offset by softening demand in the EURAF segment as a result of macroeconomic conditions and geopolitical uncertainty. Orders were unfavorably impacted by $8.5 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
As of March 31, 2023, total backlog was $1,075.7 million, a 1.9% increase from the December 31, 2022 backlog of $1,056.0 million, and a 4.1% increase from the March 31, 2022 backlog of $1,033.4 million. The increase in backlog from March 31, 2022 is primarily related to higher demand in the Americas segment, partially offset by softening demand in the EURAF segment. Backlog was favorably impacted by $4.3 million and unfavorably impacted by $7.5 million from December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively, from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Net Sales
Consolidated net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased 10.7% to $508.3 million from $459.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase was primarily attributable to higher new machine sales in the Americas segment, pricing actions and higher non-new machine sales in the Americas and EURAF segments. This was partially offset by lower new machine sales in the EURAF segment. Net sales were unfavorably impacted by $11.2 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $106.3 million, an increase of $21.3 million compared to $85.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales, favorable product mix and pricing actions. This was partially offset by higher material, transportation and labor costs. Gross profit was unfavorably impacted by $2.1 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Engineering, Selling, and Administrative Expenses
Engineering, selling, and administrative expenses increased 12.9% to $75.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $66.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher employee related costs and $4.8 million of benefit recorded in the prior year from the partial recovery of the previously
24
written-off long-term note receivable from the 2014 divestiture of the Company's Chinese joint venture. Engineering, selling and administrative expenses was favorably impacted by $1.6 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 totaled $8.1 million compared to $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Interest expense increased year-over-year primarily due to higher interest rates on borrowings from the Company's ABL revolving credit facility. See further detail at Note 11, “Debt” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Other Expense – Net
Other expense – net for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $1.1 million. Other expense – net was primarily composed of $1.5 million of net pension costs, partially offset by $0.4 million of foreign currency exchange gains.
Other expense – net for three months ended March 31, 2022 was $0.2 million. Other expense – net was primarily composed of $0.7 million of foreign currency exchange losses and $0.1 million of net pension costs, partially offset by $0.6 million of interest income.
Provision for Income Taxes
Provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $4.2 million compared to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease relates primarily to a change in the jurisdictional mix of income compared to the previous year. In addition, the Company’s effective tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due to results of foreign operations that are subject to income taxes at different statutory rates and losses in both the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions where no tax benefit can be realized.

Cash Flows From Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities of $15.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased $9.8 million from net cash provided by operating activities of $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to higher net income. This was partially offset by lower depreciation and higher working capital driven by an increase in inventory due to cost inflation, supply chain and logistics constraints, and increased stocking of inventory due to higher demand.
Cash Flows From Investing Activities
Net cash used for investing activities of $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased $0.1 million from net cash used for investing activities of $8.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in net cash used for investing activities is due to $2.0 million of proceeds from the sale of one of the Company's Brazilian subsidiaries in the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by higher capital expenditures of $1.9 million.
Cash Flows From Financing Activities
Net cash used for financing activities of $15.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased $5.6 million from net cash used for financing activities of $20.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in net cash used for financing activities is primarily due to $10.0 million of lower payments on the Company's ABL revolving credit
25
facility. This was partially offset by $1.1 million of higher proceeds from other debt and $3.5 million of common stock repurchases.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company believes its liquidity and expected cash flows from operations are sufficient to meet expected working capital, capital expenditure, and other general ongoing operational needs in the subsequent twelve months.
Cash Sources
The Company has historically relied primarily on cash flows from operations, borrowings under revolving credit facilities, issuances of notes, and other forms of debt financing as its sources of cash.
The maximum availability under the Company’s current ABL Revolving Credit Facility is $275.0 million. The borrowing capacity under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility is based on the value of inventory, accounts receivable and certain fixed assets of the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties’ obligations under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are secured on a first-priority basis, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, by substantially all of the personal property and fee-owned real property of the Loan Parties. The liens securing the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are senior in priority to the second-priority liens securing the obligations under the 2026 Notes and the related guarantees. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility has a term of 5 years and includes a $75.0 million letter of credit sub-facility, $10.0 million of which is available to the Company’s German subsidiary that is a borrower under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility.
In addition to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility, the Company has access to non-committed overdraft facilities to fund working capital in Europe and China. There are six facilities, of which five are denominated in Euros totaling €36.0 million and one denominated in Chinese Yuan totaling ¥30.0 million. Total U.S. dollar availability as of March 31, 2023 for the six overdraft facilities is $43.4 million, with $6.1 million outstanding.

Both the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and 2026 Notes include customary covenants and events of default. Refer to Note 11, “Debt,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussions of the covenants for the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and the 2026 Notes. Based upon management’s current plans and outlook, the Company believes it will be able to comply with these covenants during the subsequent twelve months. From time to time, the Company seeks to opportunistically raise capital in the debt capital markets and bank credit markets.

Non-GAAP Measures
The Company uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flows, which are financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, as additional metrics to evaluate the Company’s performance. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide important supplemental information to readers regarding business trends that can be used in evaluating its results of operations because these financial measures provide a consistent method of comparing financial performance and are commonly used by investors to assess performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered together with, and are not substitutes for, the GAAP financial information provided herein.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
The Company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus the addback or subtraction of restructuring, other income (expense), and certain other non-recurring items - net.
The reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA, and further to adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 and trailing twelve months, are summarized as follows:
