4.EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Earnings (loss) per share is computed using the two-class method. The two-class method determines earnings (loss) per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends or dividend equivalents and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities represent restricted stock units in which the participants have non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents during the performance period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share includes the effects of certain performance units in which the participants have forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents during the performance period.

6.FAIR VALUE
The carrying amounts for many of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts and notes payable, short-term borrowings and certain other liabilities, approximate their fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Our foreign exchange forward contracts and long-term investments are measured at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Our total debt is carried at cost and was $484.5 and $483.9 as of August 27, 2021 and February 26, 2021, respectively. The fair value of our total debt is measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for similar types of instruments and was $565.8 and $568.1 as of August 27, 2021 and February 26, 2021, respectively. The estimation of the fair value of our total debt is based on Level 2 fair value measurements.
We periodically use derivative financial instruments to manage exposures to movements in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure of these risks with the intention to reduce our risk of short-term volatility. We do not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.

8. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Performance Units
We have issued performance units (“PSUs”) to certain employees which are earned over a three-year performance period based on performance conditions established annually by the Compensation Committee within the first three months of the applicable fiscal year. The PSUs are then modified based on achievement of certain total shareholder return results relative to a comparison group of companies, which is a market condition. When the performance conditions for a fiscal year are established, or if the performance conditions involve a qualitative assessment and such assessment has been made, one-third of the PSUs issued are considered granted. Therefore, each of the three fiscal years within the performance period is considered an individual tranche of the award (referred to as "Tranche 1," "Tranche 2" and "Tranche 3," respectively).
As of August 27, 2021, the following PSUs have been issued and remained outstanding:
•448,300 PSUs to be earned over a three-year performance period of 2022 through 2024 (the "2022 PSUs"),
•529,500 PSUs to be earned over a three-year performance period of 2021 through 2023 (the "2021 PSUs") and
•296,600 PSUs to be earned over a three-year performance period of 2020 through 2022 (the "2020 PSUs").
In Q1 2022, the performance conditions were established for Tranche 1 of the 2022 PSUs, Tranche 2 of the 2021 PSUs and Tranche 3 of the 2020 PSUs. Accordingly, one-third of each of these PSUs were considered granted in Q1 2022.
In Q1 2021, the performance conditions were established for Tranche 1 of the 2021 PSUs and Tranche 2 of the 2020 PSUs. These performance conditions involved a qualitative assessment which was made by the Compensation Committee in Q4 2021. Accordingly, one-third of each of these PSUs were considered granted in Q4 2021.
In Q1 2020, the performance conditions were established for Tranche 1 of the 2020 PSUs. Accordingly, one-third of the 2020 PSUs were considered granted in Q1 2020.
Once granted, the PSUs are expensed and recorded in Additional paid-in capital on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets over the remaining performance period. For participants who are or become retirement-eligible during the performance period, the PSUs are expensed over the period ending on the date the participant becomes retirement-eligible.

We used the Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the fair value of the market conditions on the respective grant dates, which resulted in a fair value of $6.1, $3.7 and $1.6 for the PSUs with market conditions granted in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Monte Carlo simulation was computed using the following assumptions:
FY22 Award | FY21 Award | FY20 Award | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Restricted Stock Units
During the six months ended August 27, 2021, we awarded 839,818 restricted stock units ("RSUs") to certain employees. RSUs have restrictions on transfer which lapse three years after the date of grant, at which time the RSUs will be issued as unrestricted shares of Class A Common Stock. RSUs are expensed and recorded in Additional paid-in capital on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets over the requisite service period based on the value of the shares on the date of grant. For participants who are or become retirement-eligible during the service period, the RSUs are expensed over the period ending on the date the participant becomes retirement-eligible.
The total RSU expense and associated tax benefit for all outstanding awards for the three and six months ended August 27, 2021 and August 28, 2020 are as follows:

9. LEASES
We have operating leases for corporate offices, sales offices, showrooms, manufacturing facilities, vehicles and equipment that expire at various dates through 2031. Certain lease agreements include contingent rental payments based on per unit usage over contractual levels (e.g., miles driven or machine hours used) and others include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflationary indexes. Additionally, some leases include options to renew or terminate the leases which can be exercised at our discretion.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations:
This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 26, 2021. Reference to a year relates to the fiscal year, ended in February of the year indicated, rather than the calendar year, unless indicated by a specific date. Additionally, Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 reference the first, second, third and fourth quarter, respectively, of the fiscal year indicated. All amounts are in millions, except share and per share data, data presented as a percentage or as otherwise indicated.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This item contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the company. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, we have provided a reconciliation below of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
The non-GAAP financial measures used are (1) organic revenue growth (decline), which represents the change in revenue excluding the impacts of acquisitions and divestitures and estimated currency translation effects, and (2) adjusted operating income (loss), which represents operating income (loss) excluding goodwill impairment charges and restructuring costs. These measures are presented because management uses this information to monitor and evaluate financial results and trends. Therefore, management believes this information is also useful for investors.
Financial Summary
Our reportable segments consist of the Americas segment, the EMEA segment and the Other category. Unallocated corporate expenses are reported as Corporate.

Overview
During Q2 2022, we continued to see strengthening demand, and orders grew 24% compared to the prior year and 12% compared to Q1 2022. Revenue in the Americas in Q2 2021 benefited from strong beginning order backlog due to pandemic-related restrictions on manufacturing and delivery activities during Q1 2021. Revenue in the Americas in Q2 2022 was negatively impacted by at least $40 due to shipment delays caused by supply chain disruptions. During the quarter, our pipeline of project opportunities and requests for proposals in the Americas declined compared to Q1 2022 as recent trends in the COVID-19 pandemic caused some companies to delay their return to the office.
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased by 520 basis points in Q2 2022 compared to the prior year. The increase was driven by lower revenue, significant inflation in steel and other commodities, and freight cost inefficiencies due to supply chain disruptions. We expect the inflationary pressures from steel and other commodities to continue to impact our cost of sales through 2022, but we expect our recent price increases to more fully offset these costs in 2023.
Q2 2022 Compared to Q2 2021
We recorded net income of $24.7 and diluted earnings per share of $0.21 in Q2 2022 compared to net income of $55.5 and diluted earnings per share of $0.47 in the prior year. The prior year results included restructuring costs in the Americas, which decreased net income by $9.5 and diluted earnings per share by $0.08. Operating income of $33.9 in Q2 2022 decreased by $54.7 compared to the prior year, which included $15.6 of restructuring costs. The decrease was driven by lower revenue in the Americas and higher cost of sales as a percentage of revenue.

Revenue of $724.8 in Q2 2022 represented a decrease of $94.0 or 11% compared to the prior year. Revenue declined by 17% in the Americas, while revenue grew by 10% in EMEA and 1% in the Other category compared to the prior year. Revenue in the Americas in Q2 2021 benefited from strong beginning order backlog due to pandemic-related restrictions during Q1 2021. Revenue in the Americas in Q2 2022 was negatively impacted by at least $40 due to shipment delays caused by supply chain disruptions. After adjusting for a $13.1 impact from a dealer acquisition and $9.8 of currency translation effects, the organic revenue decline was $116.9 or 14% compared to the prior year. The organic revenue decline was 19% in the Americas and 1% in the Other category, while EMEA posted 5% organic revenue growth compared to the prior year.
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased by 520 basis points in Q2 2022 compared to the prior year. The increase was driven by lower revenue, approximately $20 of higher inflation costs, net of pricing benefits, and approximately $5 of higher freight cost inefficiencies due to supply chain disruptions. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased by 650 basis points in the Americas and by 420 basis points in the Other category, while EMEA improved by 120 basis points.
Operating expenses of $172.9 in Q2 2022 represented an increase of $0.6 compared to the prior year. The prior year included approximately $22 of lower employee costs as a result of temporary hour and pay reductions and gains of $4.1 from the sale of land. The current year included a $15.4 gain from the sale of land, approximately $10 of benefits related to workforce reductions in the prior year and $12.4 of lower variable compensation, partially offset by approximately $6 of higher discretionary spending and $3.2 from an acquisition.
Our Q2 2022 effective tax rate of 16.0%, which included $3.8 of discrete tax benefits, compared to a Q2 2021 effective tax rate of 33.0%.
Year-to-date 2022 Compared to Year-to-date 2021
We recorded a year-to-date 2022 net loss of $3.4 and a diluted loss per share of $0.03, compared to year-to-date 2021 net income of $17.4 and diluted earnings per share of $0.15. In year-to-date 2021, the results included: (1) a goodwill impairment charge related to the EMEA segment, which had the effect of decreasing net income by $17.6 and diluted earnings per share by $0.15, and (2) restructuring costs due to workforce reductions in the Americas, which had the effect of decreasing net income by $9.5 and diluted earnings per share by $0.08. Year-to-date 2022 operating income of $2.1 represented a decrease of $34.2 compared to the prior year. The decrease was due to lower revenue in the Americas, higher cost of sales as a percentage of revenue and higher operating expenses, partially offset by the impact of the goodwill impairment charge and restructuring costs in the prior year. Excluding the impact of the goodwill impairment charge and restructuring costs in the prior year, adjusted operating income decreased by $67.4 in year-to-date 2022 compared to year-to-date 2021.
Year-to-date 2022 revenue of $1,281.4 represented a decrease of $20.2 or 2% compared to year-to-date 2021. Revenue declined 7% in the Americas, while revenue grew by 16% in EMEA and 7% in the Other category. After adjusting for a $25.9 impact from a dealer acquisition and $23.8 of currency translation effects, the organic revenue decline was $69.9 or 5%. The organic revenue decline was 10% in the Americas, and organic revenue growth was 9% in EMEA and 4% in the Other category.
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased by 240 basis points in year-to-date 2022 compared to year-to-date 2021. The increase was driven by lower revenue, approximately $28 of higher inflation costs, net of pricing benefits, and approximately $5 of higher freight cost inefficiencies due to supply chain disruptions. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased by 330 basis points in the Americas and by 430 basis points in the Other category, while EMEA improved by 210 basis points.
Operating expenses of $359.4 in year-to-date 2022 represented an increase of $29.7 compared to the prior year. The prior year included approximately $41 of lower employee costs as a result of temporary hour and pay reductions and gains of $6.7 from the sale of land. The current year included approximately $20 of benefits related to workforce reductions in the prior year, a $15.4 gain from the sale of land and $6.7 of lower variable compensation (partially offset by $5.7 of higher variable compensation in Q1 2022 driven by the timing of when a portion of stock compensation expense was recorded in the prior year), partially offset by approximately $10 of increased discretionary spending and $6.0 from an acquisition.
Our year-to-date 2022 effective tax rate was 63.8% compared to a year-to-date 2021 effective tax rate of 37.9%. The year-to-date 2022 effective tax rate reflected the impact of our lower earnings and included $3.4 of discrete tax benefits. The year-to-date 2021 effective tax rate reflected the non-deductible nature of the goodwill impairment charge recorded in Q1 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents are used to fund day-to-day operations, including seasonal disbursements, particularly the annual payment of accrued variable compensation and retirement plan contributions in Q1 of each fiscal year. During normal business conditions, we target a range of $75 to $175 in cash and cash equivalents to fund operating requirements. In addition, we may carry additional liquidity for potential investments in strategic initiatives and as a cushion against economic volatility, and from time to time, we may allow our cash and cash equivalents to temporarily fall below our targeted range to fund acquisitions and other growth initiatives.

COLI investments are recorded at their net cash surrender value. Our investments in COLI policies are intended to be utilized as a long-term funding source for long-term benefit obligations. However, COLI can also be used as a source of liquidity. We believe the financial strength of the issuing insurance companies associated with our COLI policies is sufficient to meet their obligations.

Liquidity Outlook
As of August 27, 2021, our total liquidity, which is comprised of cash and cash equivalents and the cash surrender value of COLI, aggregated to $530.5. Our liquidity position, funds available under our credit facilities and cash generated from operations are expected to be sufficient to finance our known or foreseeable liquidity needs.
Our significant funding requirements include operating expenses, non-cancelable operating lease obligations, capital expenditures, variable compensation and retirement plan contributions, dividend payments and debt service obligations. We have flexibility over some of these uses of cash, including capital expenditures and discretionary operating expenses, to preserve our liquidity position. We expect capital expenditures to total approximately $65 to $75 in 2022 compared to $41.3 in 2021.
On September 22, 2021, we announced a quarterly dividend on our common stock of $0.145 per share, or approximately $17, to be paid in Q3 2022. Future dividends will be subject to approval by our Board of Directors.
