Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except per share data)

1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of Pyxus International, Inc. (the "Company", "Pyxus", "we", or "us") and all companies that Pyxus directly or indirectly controls, either through majority ownership or otherwise. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the normal and recurring adjustments necessary for fair statement of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented have been included. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 filed on June 14, 2022. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the results of operations for a fiscal quarter are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be attained for other quarters or a full fiscal year.
Segment Information
During the year ended March 31, 2022, the Company reevaluated its operating and reportable segments under Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 280 - Segment Reporting. As a result of this reevaluation, effective as of the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, the Company has eight operating segments organized by geographic area and product category and are aggregated into one reportable segment for financial reporting purposes: Leaf. Based on our reevaluation, the Company concluded that the economic characteristics of our five Leaf region operations in North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa were similar. Each geographic region derives its revenues mainly from shipping processed tobacco to manufacturers of cigarettes and other consumer tobacco products around the world, with a smaller percentage of revenue in each region being derived from performing third-party tobacco processing services. The three product category operating segments other than Leaf do not individually or in the aggregate meet the quantitative and qualitative thresholds to be individually reportable and have been combined and reported in the "All Other" category for purposes of reconciliation of respective balances for the Leaf segment to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Prior-period segment financial information has been revised to conform to the current-year presentation. See "Note 20. Segment Information" for additional information.

2. New Accounting Standards
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2021-10, Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance. This ASU created ASC Topic 832, Government Assistance, and requires certain information be disclosed regarding assistance received from a government entity when either a grant or contribution accounting model is applied. The new disclosures are required for annual periods for transactions with a government entity that are within the scope of the Topic. The new disclosure guidance was adopted prospectively and became effective for the Company on April 1, 2022. The adoption of this new accounting standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's annual disclosures for fiscal year 2023.

3. Revenue Recognition
Product revenue is primarily processed tobacco sold to the customer. Processing and other revenues are mainly contracts to process customer-owned green tobacco. During processing, ownership remains with the customers. All Other revenue is primarily composed of revenue from the sale of e-liquids and non-tobacco agriculture products. The following disaggregates sales and other operating revenues by major source, with the All Other category being included for purposes of reconciliation of the respective balances below of the Leaf segment (the Company's sole reportable segment) to the condensed consolidated financial statements:

4. Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges
The Company continued its focus on cost saving initiatives. The employee separation and asset impairment charges for the periods ended September 30, 2022 were primarily related to the restructuring of certain non-leaf agriculture operations. The employee separation and asset impairment charges for the periods ended September 30, 2021 were primarily related to the write-off of the Company's remaining industrial hemp cannabidiol ("CBD") extraction equipment and the continued restructuring of certain leaf operations. The following summarizes the Company's restructuring and asset impairment charges:

Restructuring and asset impairment charges$4,045 $6,859 $4,345 $7,092 

5. Income Taxes
The Company's quarterly provision for income taxes has generally been calculated using the annual effective tax rate method ("AETR method"), which applies an estimated annual effective tax rate to pre-tax income or loss. The AETR method was used to calculate the provision for income taxes for the prior fiscal years, for which the Company reported income tax benefits in each prior reporting period. As of September 30, 2022, the AETR method produced an unreliable estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate; therefore, the Company recorded its interim income tax provision using the discrete method, as allowed under ASC 740-270, Income Taxes - Interim Reporting. Using the discrete method, the Company determined current and deferred income tax expense as if the six-month interim period of the current fiscal year were an annual period.

The effective tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was 8.9% and 51.2%, respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the difference between the Company’s effective rate and the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% is primarily due to the impact of net foreign exchange effects, non-deductible interest, and variations in the expected jurisdictional mix of earnings.

8. CCAA Proceeding and Deconsolidation of Subsidiaries
On January 21, 2021, Figr Norfolk Inc. ("Figr Norfolk"), Figr Brands, Inc. ("Figr Brands"), and Canada’s Island Garden Inc. ("Figr East," and together with Figr Norfolk and Figr Brands, the "Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries"), which, prior to their disposition, were indirect subsidiaries of the Company, applied for relief from their respective creditors pursuant to Canada’s Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (the "CCAA") in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) (the "Canadian Court") in Ontario, Canada as Court File No. CV-21-00655373-00CL (the "CCAA Proceeding"). On January 21, 2021 (the "Order Date"), upon application by the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries, the Canadian Court issued an order for creditor protection of the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries pursuant to the provisions of the CCAA and the appointment of FTI Consulting Canada Inc. to serve as the Canadian Court-appointed monitor of the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries during the pendency of the CCAA Proceeding (the "Monitor"). The administration of the CCAA Proceeding, including the Canadian Court's appointment of the Monitor and the related authority of the Monitor, including approval rights with respect to significant actions of the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries during the pendency of the CCAA Proceeding, resulted in the Company losing control (in accordance with U.S. GAAP) of the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries at that time, and the deconsolidation on January 20, 2021 of the Canadian cannabis Subsidiaries' assets and liabilities and elimination of their equity components from the Company's consolidated financial statements as of January 21, 2021. Prior to the deconsolidation of the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries, they comprised an operating segment within the Other Products and Services reportable segment, which upon the Company's reevaluation of operating and reportable segments effective during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 is presented in the All Other category. Upon deconsolidation, the Company accounts for its investments in the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries using the cost method of accounting.

On January 29, 2021, the Canadian Court issued an order permitting the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries to initiate a sale and investment solicitation process to be conducted by the Monitor and its affiliate to solicit interest in, and opportunities for, a sale of, or investment in, all or substantially all, or one or more components, of the assets and/or the business operations of the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries. On January 28, 2022, a sale of the assets of Figr Norfolk for a purchase price of Cdn.$5,000 was completed. On June 28, 2021, a sale of the outstanding equity of Figr East and certain intangible assets of Figr Brands for an aggregate purchase price of Cdn.$24,750 was completed. On February 2, 2022, Figr Norfolk and Figr Brands obtained approval to make cash distributions to their creditors pursuant to a distribution protocol approved by the Canadian Court. In the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company received $2,011 in settlement of its debt claims with respect to the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries and did not receive any recovery with respect to its equity interest in the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries. On April 21, 2022, Figr Norfolk and Figr Brands obtained approval from the Canadian Court to terminate the CCAA Proceedings and commence bankruptcy proceedings under Canada's Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (the "BIA Proceedings") to complete certain corporate and tax-related wind-up activities. On May 13, 2022, Figr Norfolk and Figr Brands commenced the BIA Proceedings. On June 13, 2022, the CCAA Proceedings were formally terminated.

Related Party Relationship
The commencement of the CCAA Proceeding, the appointment of the Monitor, and the subsequent deconsolidation of the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries results in transactions with the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries no longer being eliminated in consolidation. As such, transactions between the Company and the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries, including loans under the debtor-in-possession financing facility (the "Canadian DIP Facility") from another non-U.S. subsidiary of Pyxus (the "DIP Lender") provided during the pendency of the CCAA Proceedings, which were fully repaid on July 8, 2021, are treated as related party transactions. See "Note 19. Related Party Transactions" for transactions between the Company and the Canadian Cannabis Subsidiaries.

The DDTL Facility Credit Agreement established a $120,000 delayed-draw term loan credit facility (the "DDTL Facility") under which the full amount has been drawn (the "DDTL Loans"). After that date, a fund managed by Owl Creek Asset Management, L.P. became a lender under the DDTL Facility. The proceeds of the DDTL Loans were used to provide working capital and for other general corporate purposes of Intabex, the Guarantors (as defined below) and their subsidiaries.

On July 28, 2022 (the "Amendment and Restatement Effectiveness Date"), following the satisfaction of the conditions to effectiveness specified in the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, the amendment and restatement of the DDTL Facility Credit Agreement by the Amended Credit Agreement became effective.

The Amended Credit Agreement establishes a $100,000 term loan credit facility (the "Term Loan Facility") and requires that Intabex use the net proceeds of the loans made thereunder (the "Term Loans") and other funds to repay in full its obligations under the DDTL Facility Credit Agreement, including the outstanding principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, borrowings under the DDTL Facility on the Amendment and Restatement Effectiveness Date and the payment of fees and expenses incurred in connection with repaying such borrowings and entering into the Amended Credit Agreement.
The Amended Credit Agreement provides that the Term Loans may be prepaid at any time, with a 2.0% fee due with respect to any principal payment made after the one-year anniversary of the Amendment and Restatement Effectiveness Date, including a payment made at maturity. The Amended Credit Agreement further provides that amounts of principal that are prepaid may not be reborrowed under the Term Loan Facility. Under the Amended Credit Agreement, interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans accrues at an annual rate of SOFR plus 7.5%, subject to a SOFR floor of 1.0%, for "SOFR loans" or, for loans that are not SOFR loans, at an annual rate of an alternate base rate (as specified in the Amended Credit Agreement and subject to a specified floor) plus 6.5%. Interest is to be paid in arrears in cash upon prepayment, acceleration, maturity, and on the last day of each interest period (which may be one, three or six months) for SOFR loans and on the last day of each calendar quarter for loans that are not SOFR loans. Pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, the Term Loan Lenders received on the Amendment and Restatement Effectiveness Date a non-refundable commitment fee equal to 3.0% of the aggregate commitments under the Term Loan Facility and a closing fee equal to 1.0% of the aggregate commitments under the Term Loan Facility, as original issue discount. The Term Loans mature on December 2, 2023.
Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the obligations of Intabex under the Amended Credit Agreement (and certain related obligations) continue to be guaranteed and secured by the same guarantors of, and the same collateral securing, Intabex’s obligations under the DDTL Facility Credit Agreement. At September 30, 2022, Intabex and each of the Guarantors was in compliance with the covenants under the Amended Credit Facility.

17. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
On November 19, 2021, the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors approved a resolution to terminate the Company's U.S. defined benefit pension plan ("U.S. Pension Plan"). Termination of the U.S. Pension Plan is expected to occur during the three-month period ending December 31, 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company settled benefits with vested participants that elected a lump sum payout and made a cash contribution of $5,300 to fully fund the U.S. Pension Plan's liabilities in preparation to purchase a group annuity contract to administer future payments to the remaining U.S. Pension Plan participants. In addition, the Company recorded a pension settlement charge of $2,588
19

during the three months ended September 30, 2022, which included the reclassification of unrecognized pension gains within accumulated other comprehensive loss within the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. The amount of unrecognized pension gains within accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the remaining U.S. pension plans is approximately $3,839 at September 30, 2022.

18. Contingencies and Other Information
Brazilian Tax Credits
The government in the Brazilian State of Parana ("Parana") issued a tax assessment on October 26, 2007 with respect to local intrastate trade tax credits that result primarily from tobacco transferred between states within Brazil. At September 30, 2022, the assessment for intrastate trade tax credits taken is $2,436 and the total assessment including penalties and interest is $9,218. On March 18, 2014, the government in Brazilian State of Santa Catarina also issued a tax assessment with respect to local intrastate trade tax credits that result primarily from tobacco transferred between states within Brazil. At September 30, 2022, the assessment for intrastate trade tax credits taken is $2,107 and the total assessment including penalties and interest is $5,936. The Company believes it has properly complied with Brazilian law and will contest any assessment through the judicial process. Should the Company lose in the judicial process, the loss of the intrastate trade tax credits would have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

The Company also has local intrastate trade tax credits in the Brazil State of Rio Grande do Sul. This jurisdiction permits the sale or transfer of excess credits to third parties, however approval must be obtained from the tax authorities. The Company has an agreement with the state government regarding the amounts and timing of credits that can be sold. The tax credits have a carrying value of $15,456. The intrastate trade tax credits are monitored for impairment in future periods based on market conditions and the Company’s ability to use or sell the tax credits.

Other Matters
In addition to the above-mentioned matters, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are involved in other litigation or legal matters incidental to their business activities, including tax matters. While the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, they are being vigorously defended and the Company does not currently expect that any of them will have a material adverse effect on its business or financial position. However, should one or more of these matters be resolved in a manner adverse to its current expectation, the effect on the Company’s results of operations for a particular fiscal reporting period could be material.

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

Forward-Looking Statements
Readers are cautioned that the statements contained in this report regarding expectations of our performance or other matters that may affect our business, results of operations, or financial condition are "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which are based on current expectations of future events, may be identified by the use of words such as "strategy," "expects," "continues," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "will," "estimates," "intends," "projects," "goals," "targets," and other words of similar meaning. These statements also may be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, or if known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, or projected. These risks and uncertainties include those discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022 and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These risks and uncertainties include:

•risks related to the Company's indebtedness, including that the Company has substantial debt which may adversely affect it by limiting future sources of financing, interfering with its ability to pay interest, and principal on its indebtedness and subjecting it to additional risks, the Company requires a significant amount of cash to service indebtedness and its ability to generate cash depends on many factors beyond its control, the Company may not be able to refinance or renew its indebtedness, which may have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, the Company may not be able to satisfy the covenants included in its financing arrangements, which could result in the default of its outstanding debt obligations, and despite current indebtedness levels, the Company may still be able to incur substantially more debt, which could exacerbate further the risks associated with its significant leverage;

•risks and uncertainties relating to the Company's liquidity, including but not limited to: whether foreign lenders that have provided short-term operating credit lines to fund leaf tobacco operations at the local level cease to provide such funding, uncertainty and continuing risks associated with the Company’s ability to achieve its goals and continue as a going concern, and unanticipated developments with respect to liquidity needs and sources of liquidity could result in a deficiency in liquidity;

•risk and uncertainties related to the Company’s leaf tobacco operations, including changes in the timing of anticipated shipments, changes in anticipated geographic product sourcing, changes in relevant capital markets affecting the terms and availability of short-term seasonal financing, political instability, currency and interest rate fluctuations, the impact of high inflation, shifts in the global supply and demand position for tobacco products, changes in tax laws and regulations or the interpretation of tax laws and regulations, resolution of tax matters, adverse weather conditions, the impact of climate change on weather patterns in tobacco-growing regions, the impact of disasters or other unusual events affecting international commerce, the impacts of international sanctions on the Company's ability to sell or source tobacco in certain regions, changes in governmental regulations applicable to tobacco products, and changes in costs incurred in supplying products and related services; and

•risks and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including possible delays in shipments of leaf tobacco, including from the closure or restricted activities at ports or other channels, disruptions to the Company’s operations or the operations of suppliers and customers resulting from restrictions on the ability of employees and others in the supply chain to travel and work, border closures, determinations by Pyxus or shippers to temporarily suspend operations in affected areas, whether safety concerns related to COVID-19 might otherwise require operations at any of the Company's facilities to be halted or limited for some period of time, negative consumer purchasing behavior with respect to the Company’s products or the products of its leaf tobacco customers during periods of government mandates restricting activities imposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the extent to which the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations and the demand for its products may not coincide with impacts experienced in the United States due to the international scope of its operations, including in emerging and other markets in which the Company operates where the timing and severity of COVID-19 outbreaks, governmental reactions to the threat of outbreaks, and the pace and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccinations may differ from those in the United States.

We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statements that we may make from time to time.

Executive Summary
Through the first half of fiscal 2023, we reduced supply chain complexities and increased operational efficiencies. These efforts result in more normalized shipments in certain markets compared to the prior year. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we experienced increased sales and other operating revenue and operating margin improvement primarily due to increased demand and more normalized timing of shipments from Africa, Asia, and South America. This enabled the Company to utilize cash generated from increased sales in the quarter to refinance the Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility, repay a portion of the revolving loan facilities, and fully fund the U.S. defined benefit pension plan.

As of September 30, 2022, our inventory increased $87.7 million compared to the prior year primarily due to higher green tobacco prices and processing costs in South America and delayed shipments from North America. Our processed tobacco inventory continues to be more than 90% committed to specific customers. The overall increase in inventory and our committed inventory levels for processed tobacco position us to meet near-term demand.

The prevailing La Nina weather patterns continue to adversely affect the global supply of tobacco. Through our efforts to accelerate buying activities in certain key markets, investments we have made across the business, and engaging with customers in transparent dialogue regarding the impacts of La Nina and inflation on our business, we purchased sufficient volume to meet near-term customer demand and maintained our gross profit as a percentage of sales despite historic inflation. As we approach the second half of fiscal 2023, we are closely monitoring the market for crop inputs like fertilizer and taking steps to mitigate the near-term risk of supply shortages where possible.

Overview
The Company is a global agricultural company with nearly 150 years of experience delivering value-added products and services to businesses and customers. The Company is a trusted provider of responsibly sourced, independently verified, sustainable, and traceable products and ingredients.

Sales and other operating revenues were $394.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and $508.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $114.1 million, or 28.9%. This increase was primarily due to a 17.5% increase in leaf volume and a 13.3% increase in average price per kilo. The increase in leaf volume was driven by increased demand and more normalized timing of shipments from Africa, Asia, and South America and was partially offset by the timing of shipments from North America. The increase in average price per kilo was mainly due to higher tobacco prices.

Cost of goods and services sold were $342.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and $441.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $98.9 million, or 28.9%. This increase was mainly due to the increase in sales and other operating revenues. Average cost per kilo increased primarily due to higher tobacco prices.

Gross profit was $52.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and $67.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $15.2 million, or 29.2%. This increase was mainly due to the increase in sales and other operating revenues. Gross profit as a percent of sales was 13.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
Operating income was $5.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and $27.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $21.6 million. This increase was mainly due to higher leaf sales and other operating revenues from increased volume and average price per kilo, lower restructuring and impairment charges, and a reduction in sales, general, and administrative expenses.

Income tax benefit was $14.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $12.9 million, or 91.5%. The decrease was driven by the Company utilizing a different method for estimating tax expense (benefit) for the period ended September 30, 2022. Using the discrete method for the period ended September 30, 2022, the Company determined current and deferred income tax expense (benefit) as if the six-month interim period of the current fiscal year were an annual period, which resulted in the recognition of the fiscal 2023 year-to-date benefit in the quarter. Refer to See "Note 5. Income Taxes" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information.

Average gross profit per kilo for product revenue was $0.53 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and $0.62 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $0.09 per kilo or 17.0%. This increase was primarily due to a favorable shift in customer and product mix. The impact of this increase was partially offset by lower gross profit from processing and other revenues and increased gross loss in the All Other category.

Sales and other operating revenues were $727.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and $852.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $124.7 million, or 17.1%. This increase was primarily due to an 11.6% increase in leaf volume and a 6.7% increase in average price per kilo. The increase in kilo volume was driven by increased demand and more normalized timing of shipments from Asia and was partially offset by the timing of shipments from North America and South America. The increase in average sales price per kilo was mainly due to higher tobacco prices.

Cost of goods and services sold were $633.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and $744.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $110.8 million, or 17.5%. This increase was mainly due to the increase in sales and other operating revenues. Average cost per kilo increased primarily due to higher tobacco prices.

Gross profit was $94.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and $108.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $13.9 million, or 14.8%. This increase was mainly due to the increase in sales and other operating revenues. Gross profit as a percent of sales went from 12.9% for the six months ended September 30, 2021 to 12.7% for the six months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily due to customer mix in South America and higher inventory write-downs within the All Other category from the restructuring of certain non-leaf agriculture operations.

Operating income was $13.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and $34.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $20.4 million, or 148.9%. This increase was mainly due to higher leaf sales and other operating revenues from increased volume and average price per kilo, lower restructuring and impairment charges, and a reduction in sales, general, and administrative expenses.

Income tax benefit was $22.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and $2.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $20.5 million, or 90.7%. This decrease was driven by the Company utilizing a different method for estimating tax expense (benefit) for the period ended September 30, 2022. Using the discrete method for the period ended September 30, 2022, the Company determined current and deferred income tax expense (benefit) as if the six-month interim period of the current fiscal year were an annual period, which resulted in the recognition of the fiscal 2023 year-to-date benefit in the quarter. Refer to See "Note 5. Income Taxes" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information.

Average gross profit per kilo for product revenue was $0.57 for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and $0.55 for the six months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $0.02 per kilo or 3.6%. This increase was primarily due to a favorable change in customer and product mix. The impact of the increase was partially offset by lower gross profit from processing and other revenues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations, cash collections from our securitized receivables, and short-term borrowings under our foreign seasonal lines of credit. Our liquidity requirements are affected by various factors from our core tobacco leaf business, including crop seasonality, foreign currency and interest rates, green tobacco prices, customer mix, crop size, and quality. Our leaf tobacco business is seasonal, and purchasing, processing, and selling activities have several associated peaks where cash on-hand and outstanding indebtedness may vary significantly compared to year end. The first three quarters of our fiscal year generally represent the peak of our working capital requirements.

We believe our sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operating needs for the next twelve months. During such time our liquidity needs for operations may approach the levels of our anticipated available cash and permitted borrowings under our credit facilities. Unanticipated developments affecting our liquidity needs, including with respect to the foregoing factors, and sources of liquidity, including impacts affecting our cash flows from operations and the availability of capital resources (including an inability to renew or refinance seasonal lines of credit), may result in a deficiency in liquidity. To address a potential liquidity deficiency, we may undertake plans to minimize cash outflows, which could include exiting operations that do not generate positive cash flow. It is possible that, depending on the occurrence of events affecting our liquidity needs and sources of liquidity, such plans may not be sufficient to adequately or timely address a liquidity deficiency.

Debt Financing
We continue to finance our business with a combination of short-term and long-term credit lines, the long-term debt securities, advances from customers, and cash from operations when available. See "Note 12. Debt Arrangements" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for a summary of our short-term and long-term debt.

We continuously monitor and, as available, adjust funding sources as needed to enhance and drive various business opportunities. From time to time we may take steps to reduce our debt or otherwise improve our financial position. Such actions
29

could include prepayments, open market debt repurchases, negotiated repurchases, other redemptions or retirements of outstanding debt, and refinancing of debt. The amount of prepayments or the amount of debt that may be repurchased, refinanced, or otherwise retired, if any, will depend on market conditions, trading levels of our debt, our cash position, compliance with debt covenants, and other considerations.

The following summarizes our total borrowing capacity under our short-term and long-term credit lines and letter of credit facilities and the remaining available amount after the reduction for outstanding borrowings and amounts reserved for outstanding letters of credit:

Net Debt
We refer to "Net debt", a non-GAAP measure, as total debt liabilities less cash and cash equivalents. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to monitor leverage and to evaluate changes to the Company's capital structure. A limitation associated with using net debt is that it subtracts cash and cash equivalents, and therefore, may imply that management intends to use cash and cash equivalents to reduce outstanding debt and that cash held in certain jurisdictions can be applied to repay obligations owing in other jurisdictions and without reduction for applicable taxes. In addition, net debt suggests that our debt obligations are less than the most comparable GAAP measure indicates.

(1) The increase from September 30, 2021 to September 30, 2022 is due to higher borrowings under the Company's foreign seasonal lines of credit used to finance higher green tobacco prices and processing costs in Africa and South America as well as increased borrowing capacity in certain markets. The increase from March 31, 2022 to September 30, 2022 is due to seasonality of the business, with higher working capital requirements in the first half of the fiscal year.
(2) The decrease in current portion of long-term debt and the increase in long-term debt from September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2022 are due to the refinancing of the DDTL Facility on a long-term basis.

* Amounts may not equal column totals due to rounding

Working capital increased from September 30, 2021 to September 30, 2022 by $43.0 million, or 8.4%, primarily due to the refinancing of the DDTL Facility on a long-term basis as well as the increased capacity and higher utilization of securitization facilities, which resulted in decreased trade receivables despite higher sales. This increase in working capital was partially offset by increased inventory driven by higher green tobacco prices and processing costs in Africa and South America, which was financed by higher foreign seasonal lines of credit, and delayed shipments from North America.

Inventories
The following summarizes inventory committed to a customer and uncommitted inventory balances for processed tobacco:

Uncommitted34.2 68.5 45.7 
Total processed tobacco$712.1 $605.4 $517.6 

Total processed tobacco increased from September 30, 2021 to September 30, 2022 by $106.7 million, or 17.6%, primarily due to increased foreign seasonal lines of credit used to finance higher green tobacco prices and processing costs in Africa and South America and delayed shipments from North America. See "Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and "Note 7. Inventories" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information.

Sources and Uses of Cash
We typically finance our non-U.S. tobacco operations with uncommitted short-term foreign seasonal lines of credit. These foreign lines of credit are generally seasonal in nature, normally extending for a term of 180 to 365 days, corresponding to the tobacco crop cycle in that market. These short-term foreign seasonal lines of credit are typically uncommitted and provide lenders the right to cease making loans and demand repayment of loans. These short-term foreign seasonal lines of credit are generally renewed at the outset of each tobacco season. We maintain various other financing arrangements to meet the cash requirements of our businesses. See "Note 12. Debt Arrangements" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information.

We utilize capital in excess of cash flow from operations to finance accounts receivable, inventory, and advances to tobacco suppliers in foreign countries. In addition, we may periodically elect to purchase, redeem, repay, retire, or cancel indebtedness prior to stated maturity under our various foreign credit lines.

31

As of September 30, 2022, our cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash was $115.8 million of which approximately $46.1 million was held in foreign jurisdictions, certain of which are subject to exchange controls and tax consequences that could limit our ability to fully repatriate these funds. Fluctuation of the U.S. dollar versus many of the currencies in which we have costs may have an impact on our working capital requirements. We will continue to monitor and hedge foreign currency costs, as needed.

The following summarizes the sources and uses of our cash flows:

* Amounts may not equal column totals due to rounding

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash decreased by $118.8 million during the six months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the increase during the six months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to higher green tobacco prices and processing costs in Africa and South America and increased inventory from delayed shipments from North America, as well as decreased trade receivables from increased capacity and higher utilization of securitization facilities. The increase in inventory was financed by higher foreign seasonal lines of credit and increased capacity and higher utilization of trade receivable securitization facilities.

Planned Capital Expenditures
Capital investments in our leaf operations have been made primarily for routine replacement of machinery and equipment, as well as investments in assets that will add value for our customers and increase our efficiency. We have incurred approximately $5.4 million in capital expenditures for the six months ended September 30, 2022, and are expecting to incur an additional $15.9 million for the remainder of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed 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 that this information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Due to inherent limitations, our disclosure controls and procedures, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance (not absolute) that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act), as of September 30, 2022. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) were effective to provide reasonable assurance as of September 30, 2022.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated our internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the quarter covered by this quarterly report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

There were no changes that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, investors should carefully consider our risk factors, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, or operating results. Except as set forth below, as of the date of this report, there are no material changes or updates to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022.

The impact of potential regulations to prohibit the sale of cigarettes in the United States other than low-nicotine cigarettes, if they are adopted and become effective, is uncertain, but they could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
In June 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") announced its plan to publish a proposed rule in 2023 that would prohibit the sale of cigarettes in the United States other than cigarettes having significantly reduced levels of nicotine. The definitive provisions of such a proposed rule have not yet been announced and any rule proposal is subject to public comment prior to being adopted by the FDA. Accordingly, the terms of any such final rule are uncertain and the date of effectiveness of such a rule is also uncertain. While the FDA announced that reducing the nicotine levels of cigarettes would reduce consumption of cigarettes by future generations and facilitate current smokers to stop consuming cigarettes, it is uncertain whether such potential regulations, if they are adopted and become effective, will have such effect. While the impact of such potential regulations on the Company is also uncertain, such regulations, if they are adopted and become effective, could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
