NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - BUSINESS ACTIVITY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The quarterly operating results for Titan Machinery Inc. (the “Company”) are subject to fluctuation due to varying weather patterns, which may impact the timing and amount of equipment purchases, rentals, and after-sales parts and service purchases by the Company’s Agriculture, Construction and International customers. Therefore, operating results for the three-month period ended April 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2020. The information contained in the consolidated balance sheet as of January 31, 2019 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements for the Company for the fiscal year then ended. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019 as filed with the SEC.
Nature of Business
The Company is engaged in the retail sale, service and rental of agricultural and construction machinery through its stores in the United States and Europe. The Company’s North American stores are located in Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin and Wyoming, and its European stores are located in Bulgaria, Germany, Romania, Serbia and Ukraine.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, particularly related to realization of inventory, impairment of long-lived assets, collectability of receivables, and income taxes.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material accounts, transactions and profits between the consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Concurrent with the adoption of new lease accounting guidance, the Company elected to reclassify finance lease liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of January 31, 2019 to maintain consistency and comparability between periods presented. The amounts reclassified included $1.3 million from current maturities of long-term debt to accrued expenses and other and $5.1 million from long-term debt, less current maturities to other long-term liabilities. These reclassifications had no impact on total current liabilities, total long-term liabilities or total liabilities and stockholders' equity within the consolidated balance sheets.
Certain reclassifications of amounts previously reported within the consolidated statements of cash flows have been made to maintain consistency and comparability between periods presented. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities within the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new leasing standard applicable for lessees and lessors and codified in Accounting Standards Codification 842, Leases, ("ASC 842") to increase transparency and comparability among organizations. Most prominent among the changes in the standard is the recognition on the balance sheet by a lessee of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for most leases. The standard also requires new disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from lease activities. This guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018.
The Company adopted the leasing guidance on February 1, 2019 using a prospective transition method at the adoption date and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as a result of adoption. Under this method of adoption, prior period amounts are not adjusted and will continue to be reported under accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company elected the package of practical expedients afforded under the guidance, which applies to leases that commenced prior to adoption and permits an entity not to: 1) reassess whether existing or expired contracts are or contain a lease, 2) reassess the lease classification, and 3) reassess any initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company did not elect the use of the hindsight practical expedient to determine the lease term, but rather included the lease term as defined under former leasing guidance to capitalize the right-of-use asset and lease liability upon adoption. The Company identified new, and updated existing, internal controls and processes to ensure compliance with the new standard, but such modifications were not deemed to be material to our overall system of internal controls.
Adoption of the new standard for leasing transactions in which the Company is the lessee had a material impact on our consolidated balance sheet but did not have an impact on our consolidated statement of operations or cash flows. The most significant impact was the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, while the accounting for financing leases remained substantially unchanged. We recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of February 1, 2019 of $5.5 million primarily resulting from impairment of operating lease right-of-use assets present on the date of adoption, net of the deferred tax impact. The adoption of the new standard for leasing transactions in which the Company is the lessor did not impact our consolidated balance sheet, statement of operations or cash flows. The Company has included the additional disclosures required under ASC 842 in Note 13.
Adoption of ASC 842 impacted our consolidated balance sheet as of February 1, 2019 as follows:

Unbilled Receivables and Deferred Revenue
Unbilled receivables amounted to $16.0 million and $11.2 million as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019. The increase in unbilled receivables is primarily the result of a seasonal increase in the volume of our service transactions in which we recognize revenue as our work is performed and prior to customer invoicing.
Deferred revenue from contracts with customers amounted to $33.8 million and $44.9 million as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019. Our deferred revenue most often increases in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year due to a higher level of customer down payments or prepayments and longer time periods between customer payment and delivery of the equipment asset, and the related recognition of equipment revenue, prior to its seasonal use. During the three months ended April 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized $30.5 million and $17.2 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of January 31, 2019 and January 31, 2018, respectively. No material amount of revenue was recognized during the three months ended April 30, 2019 and 2018 from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods.
The Company has elected as a practical expedient to not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of service of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed. The contracts for which the practical expedient has been applied include (i) equipment revenue transactions, which do not have a stated contractual term, but are short-term in nature, and (ii) service revenue transactions, which also do not have a stated contractual term but are generally completed within 30 days and for such contracts we recognize revenue over time at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services completed to date.

During the three months ended April 30, 2019, the Company, as the result of a current period operating loss combined with historical losses and anticipated future operating losses of a store location, recognized within its Construction segment a long-lived asset impairment charge of $0.1 million.
In March 2019, the Company completed an assessment of its Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") application and concluded that the Company will begin the process to prepare for conversion to a new ERP application during the fiscal year ending January 31, 2020, with an anticipated implementation of the new ERP application during the first-half of the fiscal year ending January 31, 2021. Beginning in March 2019, the Company prospectively adjusted the useful life of its current ERP application such that it will be fully amortized upon its estimated replacement date. The net book value of $8.7 million of the ERP application will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining period of use. For the three months ended April 30, 2019, the Company recognized an additional $0.9 million of amortization expense, which decreased operating income accordingly, increased net loss by approximately $0.7 million and increased the reported basic and diluted loss per share by approximately $0.04.
NOTE 7 - FLOORPLAN PAYABLE/LINES OF CREDIT
As of April 30, 2019, the Company had floorplan lines of credit totaling $640.0 million, which is primarily comprised of three significant floorplan lines of credit: (i) a $400.0 million credit facility with CNH Industrial, (ii) a $140.0 million line of credit with a group of banks led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the "Wells Fargo Credit Agreement"), and (iii) a $45.0 million credit facility with DLL Finance LLC.
12
As of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019, the Company's outstanding balances of floorplan payables and lines of credit consisted of the following:
April 30, 2019 | January 31, 2019 | ||||||
(in thousands) | |||||||
CNH Industrial | $ | 219,106 | $ | 120,319 | |||

$ | 374,271 | $ | 273,756 |
As of April 30, 2019, the interest-bearing U.S. floorplan payables carried various interest rates ranging from 4.50% to 6.11%, compared to a range of 4.77% to 6.30% as of January 31, 2019. As of April 30, 2019, foreign floorplan payables carried various interest rates primarily ranging from 0.94% to 8.48%, compared to a range of 0.94% to 8.51% as of January 31, 2019. As of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019, $232.0 million and $151.7 million of outstanding floorplan payable were non-interest bearing. As of April 30, 2019, the Company had a compensating balance arrangement under one of its foreign floorplan credit facilities, which requires a minimum cash deposit to be maintained with the lender in the amount of $5.0 million for the term of the credit facility.
Wells Fargo Credit Agreement
The maturity date of the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement was contingent upon the results of a maturity test that was performed on February 1, 2019, a date that was three months prior to the scheduled maturity date of the Company's outstanding senior convertible notes. Pursuant to this test, the maturity date for the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement would be October 28, 2020 so long as (i) the Company's fixed charge coverage ratio for the 12 month period ended December 31, 2018 was at least 1.10 to 1.00 and (ii) a liquidity test, requiring that the Company have unrestricted cash on hand plus excess borrowing availability under the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement (on a pro-forma basis reflecting the Company’s repayment in full of its outstanding senior convertible notes) in an amount that is greater than 20% of maximum credit amount under the facility, was met on February 1, 2019. If both financial tests were not satisfied on February 1, 2019, the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement would immediately mature and all amounts outstanding would become immediately due and payable in full. The Company satisfied the maturity test requirements on February 1, 2019, and therefore the maturity date of the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement is October 28, 2020. The amount that the Company was able to borrow under the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement was temporarily reduced by the amount of outstanding senior convertible notes from the February 1, 2019 maturity testing date through May 1, 2019, the maturity date of the senior convertible notes.

NOTE 11 - DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company holds derivative instruments for the purpose of minimizing exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates to which the Company is exposed in the normal course of its operations.
14
The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the effects of fluctuations in exchange rates on outstanding intercompany loans. The Company does not formally designate and document such derivative instruments as hedging instruments; however, the instruments are an effective economic hedge of the underlying foreign currency exposure. Both the gain or loss on the derivative instrument and the offsetting gain or loss on the underlying intercompany loan are recognized in earnings immediately, thereby eliminating or reducing the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on net income. The Company's foreign currency forward contracts generally have three-month maturities, maturing on the last day of each fiscal quarter. The notional value of outstanding foreign currency contracts as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019 was $13.1 million and $14.1 million.
As of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019, the fair value of the Company's outstanding derivative instruments was not material. Derivative instruments recognized as assets are recorded in prepaid expenses and other in the consolidated balance sheets, and derivative instruments recognized as liabilities are recorded in accrued expenses and other in the consolidated balance sheets.
The following table sets forth the gains and losses recognized in income (loss) from the the Company’s derivative instruments for the three months ended April 30, 2019 and 2018. Gains and losses are recognized in interest income and other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations:

NOTE 13 - LEASES
As Lessee
15
The Company, as lessee, leases certain of its dealership locations, office space, equipment and vehicles under operating and financing classified leasing arrangements. The Company has elected to not record leases with a lease term at commencement of 12 months or less on the consolidated balance sheet; such leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Many real estate lease agreements require the Company to pay the real estate taxes on the properties during the lease term and require that the Company maintain property insurance on each of the leased premises. Such payments are deemed to be variable lease payments as the amounts may change during the term of the lease. Certain leases include renewal options that can extend the lease term for periods of one to ten years. Most real estate leases grant the Company a right of first refusal or other options to purchase the real estate, generally at fair market value, either during the lease term or at its conclusion. In most cases, the Company has not included these renewal and purchase options within the measurement of the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Most often the Company cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in the lease and thus applies its incremental borrowing rate to capitalize the right-of-use asset and lease liability. We estimate our incremental borrowing rate by incorporating considerations of lease term, asset class and lease currency and geographical market. Our lease agreements do not contain any material non-lease components, residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
The Company subleases a small number of real estate assets to third-parties, primarily dealership locations for which we have ceased operations. All sublease arrangements are classified as operating leases.

As Lessor
The Company rents equipment to customers, primarily in the Construction segment, on a short-term basis. Our rental arrangements generally do not include minimum, noncancellable periods as the lessee is entitled to cancel the arrangement at any time. Most often, our rental arrangements extend for periods ranging from a few days to a few months. We maintain a fleet of dedicated rental assets within our Construction segment and, within all segments, may also provide short-term rentals of certain equipment inventory assets. Certain rental arrangements may include rent-to-purchase options whereby customers are given a period of time to exercise an option to purchase the related equipment at an established price with any rental payments paid applied to reduce the purchase price.
All of the Company's leasing arrangements as lessor are classified as operating leases. Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the rental period. Rental revenue includes amounts charged for loss and damage insurance on rented equipment. In most cases, our rental arrangements include non-lease components, including delivery and pick-up services. The Company accounts for these non-lease components separate from the rental arrangement and recognizes the revenue associated with these components when the service is performed. The Company has elected to exclude from rental revenue all sales, value
18
added and other taxes collected from our customers concurrent with our rental activities. Rental billings most often occur on a monthly basis and may be billed in advance or in arrears, thus creating unbilled rental receivables or deferred rental revenue amounts. The Company manages the residual value risk of its rented assets by (i) monitoring the quality, aging and anticipated retail market value of our rental fleet assets to determine the optimal period to remove an asset from the rental fleet, (ii) maintaining the quality of our assets through on-site parts and service support and (iii) requiring physical damage insurance of our lessee customers. We primarily dispose of our rental assets through the sale of the asset by our retail sales force.
Revenue generated from leasing activities is disclosed, by segment, in Note 3. The following is the balance of our dedicated rental fleet assets of our Construction segment as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019:

NOTE 14 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
As of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019, the fair value of the Company's foreign currency contracts, which are either assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, was not material. These foreign currency contracts were valued using a discounted cash flow analysis, an income approach, utilizing readily observable market data as inputs, which is classified as a Level 2 fair value measurement.
The Company also valued certain long-lived assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019 as part of its long-lived asset impairment testing. The estimated fair value of such assets as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019 was $0.2 million and $0.9 million. Fair value was estimated through an income approach incorporating both observable and unobservable inputs, and are deemed to be Level 3 fair value inputs. The most significant unobservable inputs include forecasted net cash generated from the use of the assets and the discount rate applied to such cash flows to arrive at a fair value estimate.
The Company also has financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets, including cash, receivables, payables, long-term debt and senior convertible notes. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximated their fair values as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019. Fair value of these financial instruments was estimated based on Level 2 fair value inputs.
NOTE 15 - INCOME TAXES
Our effective tax rate was 13.6% for the three months ended April 30, 2019 compared to an effective tax rate of 25.5% for the three months ended April 30, 2018. Our effective tax rate differs from the domestic federal statutory tax rate due to changes in mix of domestic and foreign income or losses and the impact of the recognition of valuation allowances on our U.S. federal, state and certain of our foreign deferred tax assets, including net operating losses.
NOTE 16 - BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Fiscal 2020
On January 1, 2019, the Company, through its German subsidiary, acquired certain assets of ESB Agrartechnik GmbH ("ESB"). ESB is a full-service agriculture equipment dealership in Eastern Germany. Our acquisition of ESB further expands our presence in the German market. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination. The total consideration transferred for the acquired business was $3.0 million paid in cash. The business assets acquired consisted of $1.5 million in inventory, $0.8 million of other tangible assets, and $0.7 million of intangible assets, which included $0.5 million of goodwill that will be assigned to the International segment and is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The recognition of goodwill arose primarily from the acquisition of an assembled workforce. Acquisition-related transaction costs were not material. This acquisition was recognized in the fiscal year ending January 31, 2020 as the acquisition occurred within our International segment in which all entities maintain a calendar year reporting period.
19
Fiscal 2019
On July 2, 2018, the Company acquired all interests of two commonly-controlled companies, AGRAM Landtechnikvertrieb GmbH and AGRAM Landtechnik Rollwitz GmbH (collectively "AGRAM"), for $19.2 million in cash consideration. Founded in 1990, AGRAM is a CaseIH and Steyr dealership complex consisting of four agriculture dealership locations in the following cities of Germany: Altranft, Burkau, Gutzkow, and Rollwitz. Our acquisition of these entities provides the Company the opportunity to expand our international presence into the large, well-established German market.
The AGRAM acquisition has been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires the Company to estimate the acquisition date fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair value of the consideration paid exceeded the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which resulted in the recognition of $0.9 million of goodwill. The recognition of goodwill arose from the acquisition of an assembled workforce and anticipated synergies within our International segment. The entire goodwill amount was assigned to the International segment and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The Company recognized a customer relationship intangible asset in the amount of $0.1 million, which will be amortized over a three-year period, and recognized a distribution rights intangible asset in the amount of $1.8 million that is an indefinite-lived intangible asset not subject to amortization. The Company estimated the fair value of the customer relationship and distribution rights intangible assets using a multi-period excess earnings model, an income approach. All acquisition-related costs, which amounted to $0.2 million, have been expensed as incurred and recognized as operating expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.
The allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was as follows:

NOTE 17 - CONTINGENCIES
On October 11, 2017, the Romania Competition Council (“RCC”) initiated an administrative investigation of the Romanian Association of Manufacturers and Importers of Agricultural Machinery (“APIMAR”) and all its members, including Titan Machinery Romania. The RCC's investigation involves whether the APIMAR members engaged in anti-competitive practices in their sales of agricultural machinery not involving European Union ("EU") subvention funding programs, by referring to the published sales prices governing EU subvention funded transactions, which prices are mandatorily disclosed to and published by AFIR, a Romanian government agency that oversees the EU subvention funding programs in Romania. The investigation is in a preliminary stage and the Company is currently unable to predict its outcome or reasonably estimate any potential loss that may result from the investigation.
20
The Company is also engaged in other legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of business. Due to their nature, such legal proceedings involve inherent uncertainties, including but not limited to, court rulings, negotiations between affected parties and governmental intervention. Based upon the information available to the Company and discussions with legal counsel, it is the Company's opinion that the outcome of these various legal actions and claims will not have a material impact on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows. These matters, however, are subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of any matter is not predictable with assurance.
NOTE 18 - SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has three reportable segments: Agriculture, Construction and International. Revenue between segments is immaterial. The Company retains various unallocated income/(expense) items and assets at the general corporate level, which the Company refers to as “Shared Resources” in the table below. Shared Resources assets primarily consist of cash and property and equipment.
Certain financial information for each of the Company’s business segments is set forth below. All revenue amounts for the three months ended April 30, 2018 shown below are presented on an as corrected basis following the correction of an immaterial error identified in previously issued financial statements. Refer to Note 19 for additional details.

NOTE 19 - IMMATERIAL RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As previously disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019, the Company identified an immaterial error within its financial statements, including in the results for the quarterly period ended April 30, 2018. The identified error was the result of incorrectly eliminating certain internal parts and service transactions. The adjustments to correct for this error reduce total revenue and cost of revenue by less than 1.0% and impact the amounts of previously reported equipment, parts, service and rental and other revenue and cost of revenue amounts, but have no impact on total gross profit, operating or net income, earnings per share, or the consolidated balance sheets or statements of cash flows. Management of the Company has evaluated all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors and has concluded that the error is
21
not material to the results of operations for the previously reported quarterly period. The Company has restated its accompanying statement of operations to correct for this immaterial error for the three months ended April 30, 2018.
Included below is a summary of the previously reported amounts of revenue and cost of revenue, the impact of correcting for this immaterial error, and the as-corrected amounts for the three month period ended April 30, 2018:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report, and the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019.
Overview
We own and operate a network of full service agricultural and construction equipment stores in the United States and Europe. Based upon information provided to us by CNH Industrial N.V. or its U.S. subsidiary CNH Industrial America, LLC, we are the largest retail dealer of Case IH Agriculture equipment in the world, the largest retail dealer of Case Construction equipment in North America and a major retail dealer of New Holland Agriculture and New Holland Construction equipment in the U.S. We operate our business through three reportable segments, Agriculture, Construction and International. Within each segment, we have four principal sources of revenue: new and used equipment sales, parts sales, service, and equipment rental and other activities.
The agriculture industry is experiencing low agriculture commodity prices and net farm income. Based on U.S. Department of Agriculture ("USDA") publications, the most recent estimate of net farm income for calendar year 2018 decreased an estimated 16.0% as compared to calendar year 2017 and is approximately 15.0% below the average for the five-year period ending December 31, 2018. Lower net farm income over this five-year period has led to reduced demand for equipment purchases, service work and parts, negatively impacting same-store sales, equipment revenue and equipment gross profit margin, and has caused an oversupply of equipment inventory in our geographic footprint. In addition, these agriculture industry conditions have also led to a reduction of purchases of construction equipment by customers in the agriculture industry, negatively impacting certain of our Construction stores. Based on its March 2019 report, the USDA projected net farm income for calendar year 2019 to increase 10.0% as compared to calendar year 2018.
Our net loss was $0.4 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2020, compared to a net loss of $1.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Our adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.02 for the first quarter of fiscal 2020, compared to an adjusted diluted loss per share of $0.07 for the first quarter of fiscal 2019. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below for a reconciliation of adjusted diluted earnings per share to diluted earnings per share, the most comparable GAAP measure. Significant factors impacting the quarterly comparisons were:
• | Revenue increased 14.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, as compared to the first quarter last year. This increase in revenue was the result of increases from each of our four principal sources of business, equipment, parts, service and rental and other, and across each of our three operating segments, Agriculture, Construction and International. Our AGRAM acquisition in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 also contributed to the revenue increase in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 as compared to the first quarter last year. |
• | Gross profit margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 of 19.4% is consistent with the 19.5% gross profit margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2019. A slight decrease in equipment gross profit margin in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, as compared to the first quarter last year, was substantially offset by increased service and rental and other gross profit margins. |
• | Operating expenses increased $5.8 million, or 12.5%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, as compared to the first quarter last year. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased from 19.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 to 18.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in operating expenses is primarily the result of our AGRAM acquisition in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, incremental costs associated with our ERP transition, and increased variable expenses associated with higher levels of equipment sales. |
• | Floorplan and other interest expense decreased a combined 25.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, as compared to the first quarter last year, primarily due to a decrease in our level of interest-bearing inventory in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and our repurchase of $20.0 million face value of our senior convertible notes in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. |
AGRAM Acquisition
On July 2, 2018, we continued our strategy of acquiring dealerships in desired market areas with our acquisition of two commonly-controlled companies, AGRAM Landtechnikvertrieb GmbH and AGRAM Landtechnik Rollwitz GmbH (collectively "AGRAM"). AGRAM consists of four Case IH agriculture dealership locations in the following cities of
23
Germany; Altranft, Burkau, Gutzkow, and Rollowitz. Total cash consideration paid in the acquisition was $19.2 million, which the Company financed through available cash resources and capacity under our existing floorplan payable and other credit facilities. The four AGRAM dealerships are included within our International segment.
ERP Transition
In March 2019, the Company completed an assessment of its Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") application and concluded that the Company will begin the process to prepare for conversion to a new ERP application during the fiscal year ending January 31, 2020, with an anticipated implementation of the new ERP application during the first-half of the fiscal year ending January 31, 2021. The new ERP application is expected to provided the latest data-driven and mobile-enabled sales and support tools to improve employee efficiency and deliver an enhanced customer experience. Beginning in March 2019, we prospectively adjusted the useful life of our current ERP application such that it will be fully amortized upon its estimated replacement date.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized $0.9 million of additional amortization expense of our current ERP application. In addition, we recognized $0.1 million of expense for other ERP transition costs. We expect to recognize for the remainder of fiscal 2020 incremental ERP transition costs, which includes the incremental amortization of our current ERP application and external costs associated with implementing the new ERP application, of approximately $6.0 million.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our critical accounting policies and estimates are included in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019. Other than the adoption of the lease accounting guidance described in Note 1, Business Activity and Significant Accounting Policies, and Note 13, Leases, to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no other changes in our critical accounting policies since January 31, 2019.
Results of Operations
The results shown below include the operating results of any acquisitions made during these periods and the operating results of any stores closed during these periods up to the date of the store closure. The period-to-period comparisons included below are not necessarily indicative of future results. Segment information is provided later in this discussion and analysis of our results of operations.
All revenue and cost of revenue amounts for quarter ended April 30, 2018 are presented on an as corrected basis after correcting for an immaterial error identified during the year ended January 31, 2019 in these previously issued financial statements. The correction of this immaterial error reduced total revenue and cost of revenue by less than 1.0% and impacted the amounts of previously reported equipment, parts, service and rental and other revenue and cost of revenue, but had no impact on total gross profit, operating or net income, or earnings per-share. See Note 19 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information
Same-store sales for any period represent sales by stores that were part of the Company for the entire comparable periods in the current and preceding fiscal years. We do not distinguish between relocated or newly-expanded stores in this same-store analysis. Closed stores are excluded from the same-store analysis. Stores that do not meet the criteria for same-store classification are described as excluded stores throughout the Results of Operations section in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The increase in revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was the result of increased revenue from all revenue sources and across all segments. Same-store sales increased 11.1% primarily as a result of an increase in equipment revenue but also positively impacted by parts and service revenue increases. Revenue was also positively impacted by our AGRAM acquisition completed in the third quarter of fiscal 2019.

Our operating expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 increased $5.8 million as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2019 as a result of increased International segment operating expenses resulting from our AGRAM acquisition, incurrence of ERP transitions, and increased variable expenses associated with higher levels of equipment revenue. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 18.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 from 19.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of total revenue was primarily due to the increase in total revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2019, which positively affected our ability to leverage our fixed operating costs.

Agriculture
Agriculture segment revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 increased 8.3% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2019, all of which was due to a same-store sales increase. The revenue increase was the result of increased equipment revenue arising from customer replacement demand despite the aforementioned difficult industry conditions plus increases in parts and service revenues.
Agriculture segment income before income taxes was $1.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $1.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The improvement in segment results was primarily the result of increased revenue but partially offset by increased operating expenses, including variable expenses associated with higher equipment revenues.
Construction
Construction segment revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 increased 15.9% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in revenue, all of which was due to a same-store sales increase, was the result of revenue increases from all sources of business, equipment, parts, service and rental and other.
Our Construction segment loss before income taxes was $2.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to a $2.9 million loss before income taxes in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The improvement in segment results was primarily due to increased revenue, but partially offset by increased operating expenses, including variable expenses associated with higher equipment revenues. The dollar utilization of our rental fleet increased from 18.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 to 20.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2020.
International
International segment revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 increased 32.1% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in segment revenue was the result of incremental revenue from our AGRAM acquisition completed in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 and a same-store sales increase of 13.6%. The increase in same-store sales was primarily the result of increased equipment and parts revenue.
Our International segment income before income taxes was $0.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared a loss before income taxes of $0.1 million for the same period last year. The improvement in segment results was primarily the result of increased revenue but partially offset by increased operating expenses arising from our AGRAM business following our acquisition in the third quarter of fiscal 2019.
28
Shared Resources/Eliminations
We incur centralized expenses/income at our general corporate level, which we refer to as “Shared Resources,” and then allocate most of these net expenses to our segments. Since these allocations are set early in the year, and a portion is planned to be unallocated, unallocated balances may occur. Shared Resources loss before income taxes was $0.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to loss before income taxes of $0.5 million for the same period last year.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement net income (loss) and our diluted earnings (loss) per share ("Diluted EPS"), both GAAP measures, we present adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted Diluted EPS, both non-GAAP measures, which include adjustments for ERP transition costs, including accelerated amortization of our current ERP application and external implementation costs of our new ERP application, and impairment charges. We believe that the presentation of adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted Diluted EPS is relevant and useful to our management and investors because it provides a measurement of earnings on activities that we consider to occur in the ordinary course of our business. Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted Diluted EPS should be evaluated in addition to, and not considered a substitute for, or superior to, the most comparable GAAP measure. In addition, other companies may calculate these non-GAAP measures in a different manner, which may hinder comparability of our adjusted results with those of other companies.
The following tables reconcile (i) net income (loss), a GAAP measure, to adjusted net income (loss) and (ii) Diluted EPS, a GAAP measure, to adjusted Diluted EPS:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash reserves, cash generated from operations, and borrowings under our floorplan payable and other credit facilities. We expect these sources of liquidity to be sufficient to fund our working capital requirements, acquisitions, capital expenditures and other investments in our business, service our debt, pay our tax and lease obligations and other commitments and contingencies, and meet any seasonal operating requirements for the foreseeable future, provided, however, that our borrowing capacity, under our credit agreements, is dependent on compliance with various covenants as further described in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report in Form 10-K.
Equipment Inventory and Floorplan Payable Credit Facilities
As of April 30, 2019, the Company had floorplan payable lines of credit for equipment purchases totaling $640.0 million, which is primarily comprised of a $400.0 million credit facility with CNH Industrial Capital, a $140.0 million floorplan payable line under the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement, and a $45.0 million credit facility with DLL Finance.
The maturity date of our Wells Fargo Credit Agreement was contingent upon the results of a maturity test that was performed on February 1, 2019. Pursuant to this test, the maturity date of the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement would be October 28, 2020 so long as (i) the Company's fixed charge coverage ratio for the 12 month period ended December 31, 2018 was at least 1.10 to 1.00 and (ii) a liquidity test, requiring that the Company have unrestricted cash on hand plus excess borrowing availability under the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement (on a pro-forma basis reflecting the Company’s repayment in full of its outstanding Senior Convertible Notes) in an amount that is greater than 20% of maximum credit amount under the facility, was met on February 1, 2019. If both financial tests were not satisfied on February 1, 2019, the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement would immediately mature and all amounts outstanding would become immediately due and payable in full. The Company satisfied the maturity test requirements on February 1, 2019, and therefore the maturity date of the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement is October 28, 2020.
Our equipment inventory turnover increased slightly to 1.8 times for the four quarters ended April 30, 2019 compared to 1.7 times for the four quarters ended April 30, 2018. The increase in equipment sales volume over the four quarter period ended April 30, 2019 as compared to the four quarter period ended April 30, 2018 was largely offset by an increase in our average equipment inventory over these time periods. Our equity in equipment inventory, which reflects the portion of our equipment inventory balance that is not financed by floorplan payables, decreased to 23.6% as of April 30, 2019 from 34.4% as of January 31, 2019. The decrease in our equity in equipment inventory is primarily due to the seasonal stocking of new equipment inventories during the three months ended April 30, 2019 and the higher level of floorplan financing available on such inventories, and borrowing on our floorplan lines of credit in anticipation of repaying the outstanding balance of our senior convertible notes on May 1, 2019.
Senior Convertible Notes
The Company's senior convertible notes matured on May 1, 2019. The Company repaid the outstanding principal balance of $45.6 million on the maturity date using available cash resources and available borrowing capacity under our various floorplan payable lines of credit.
Adequacy of Capital Resources
Our primary uses of cash have been to fund our operating activities, including the purchase of inventories and providing for other working capital needs, meeting our debt service requirements, making payments due under our various leasing arrangements, funding capital expenditures, including rental fleet assets, and repurchasing and repaying our outstanding senior convertible notes. Based on our current operational performance, we believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and available borrowing capacity under our existing credit facilities will adequately provide for our liquidity needs for, at a minimum, the next 12 months.
As of April 30, 2019, we were in compliance with the financial covenants under our credit agreements and we were not subject to the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant under the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement as our adjusted excess availability plus eligible cash collateral (as defined therein) was not less than 15% of the total amount of the credit facility as of April 30, 2019. While not expected to occur, if anticipated operating results create the likelihood of a future covenant violation, we would expect to work with our lenders on an appropriate modification or amendment to our financing arrangements.
Cash Flow
Cash Flow Provided By Operating Activities
30
Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.9 million for the first three months of fiscal 2020, compared to net cash used for operating activities of $27.0 million for the first three months of fiscal 2019. The change in net cash provided by or used for operating activities is primarily the result of seasonal inventory stocking and the mix of floorplan financing between manufacturer and non-manufacturer floorplan financing.
We evaluate our cash flow from operating activities net of all floorplan activity and maintaining a constant level of equity in our equipment inventory. Taking these adjustments into account, our adjusted cash flow used for operating activities was $37.4 million for the first three months of fiscal 2020 compared to $25.6 million for the first three months of fiscal 2019. The increase in adjusted cash flow used for operating activities for the first three months of fiscal 2020 is primarily the result of increased equipment inventory stock during the first three months of fiscal 2020 as compared to the same period last year. See the Adjusted Cash Flow Reconciliation below for a reconciliation of adjusted cash flow used for operating activities to the GAAP measure of cash flow used for operating activities.
Cash Flow Used For Investing Activities
Net cash used for investing activities was $8.0 million for the first three months of fiscal 2020, compared to $2.6 million for the first three months of fiscal 2019. The increase in cash used for investing activities was the result of cash used for our acquisition of ESB Agrartechnik and an increased level of property and equipment purchases, including rental fleet, for the first three months of fiscal 2020 compared to the same period last year.
Cash Flow Provided By Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $11.8 million for the first three months of fiscal 2020 compared to $33.4 million for the first three months of fiscal 2019. For the first three months of fiscal 2020 and 2019, net cash provided by financing activities was the result of increased non-manufacturer floorplan payables associated with seasonal inventory stocking. During the first three months of fiscal 2019, we repaid all amounts outstanding under the working capital line of credit under our Wells Fargo Credit Agreement.
Adjusted Cash Flow Reconciliation
We consider our cash flow from operating activities to include all equipment inventory financing activity regardless of whether we obtain the financing from a manufacturer or other source. GAAP requires the cash flows associated with non-manufacturer floorplan payables to be recognized as financing cash flows in the consolidated statement of cash flows. We consider equipment inventory financing with both manufacturers and other sources to be part of the normal operations of our business. We also evaluate our cash flow from operating activities by assuming a constant level of equity in our equipment inventory. Our equity in our equipment inventory reflects the portion of our equipment inventory balance that is not financed by floorplan payables. Our adjustment to maintain a constant level of equity in our equipment inventory is equal to the difference between our actual level of equity in equipment inventory at each period-end as presented in the consolidated balance sheets compared to the actual level of equity in equipment inventory at the beginning of the fiscal year. We refer to this measure of cash flow as Adjusted Cash Flow.
Our equity in equipment inventory decreased to 23.6% as of April 30, 2019 from 34.4% as of January 31, 2019, and decreased to 27.8% as of April 30, 2018 from 38.2% as of January 31, 2018.
Adjusted Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Cash Flow is relevant and useful to our investors because it provides information on activities we consider to be the normal operation of our business, regardless of financing source and level of financing for our equipment inventory. The following table reconciles net cash provided by (used for) operating activities, a GAAP measure, to adjusted net cash provided by (used for) operating activities and net cash provided by (used for) financing activities, a GAAP measure, to adjusted net cash provided by (used for) financing activities.

Certain Information Concerning Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of April 30, 2019, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. We are, therefore, not exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in these relationships.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2019, and in other materials filed or to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (and included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by the Company).
Forward-looking statements are statements based on future expectations and specifically may include, among other things, statements relating to our expectations regarding exchange rate and interest rate impact on our business, the impact of farm income levels on our customers' demand for agricultural equipment and services, the impact of oil prices on market demand for equipment and services, the general market conditions of the agricultural and construction industries, equipment inventory levels, and our primary liquidity sources and adequacy of our capital resources. Any statements that are not based upon historical facts, including the outcome of events that have not yet occurred and our expectations for future performance, are forward-looking statements. The words “potential,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “could,” “will,” “plan,” “anticipate,” and similar words and expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of our management. Such forward-looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect anticipated results in the future and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, adverse market conditions in the agricultural and construction equipment industries, and those matters identified and discussed under the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Although we are not aware of any other factors, aside from those discussed in our Form 10-K, that we currently anticipate will cause our forward-looking statements to differ materially from our future actual results, or materially affect the Company’s financial condition or future results, additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk
Exposure to changes in interest rates results from borrowing activities used to fund operations. For fixed rate debt, interest rate changes affect the fair value of financial instruments but do not impact earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for floating rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value but do impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. We have both fixed and floating rate financing. Some of our floating rate credit facilities contain minimum rates of interest to be charged. Based upon our interest-bearing balances and interest rates as of April 30, 2019, holding other variables constant, a one percentage point increase in interest rates for the next 12-month period would decrease pre-tax earnings and cash flow by approximately $1.4 million. Conversely, a one percentage point decrease in interest rates for the next 12-month period would result in an increase to pre-tax earnings and cash flow of approximately $1.4 million. At April 30, 2019, we had floorplan payables of $374.3 million, of which approximately $142.3 million was variable-rate floorplan payable and $232.0 million was non-interest bearing. In addition, at April 30, 2019, we had total long-term debt, including our senior convertible notes and finance lease obligations, of $78.4 million, all of which was fixed rate debt.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Our foreign currency exposures arise as the result of our foreign operations. We are exposed to transactional foreign currency exchange rate risk through our foreign entities’ holding assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than their functional currency. In addition, the Company is exposed to foreign currency transaction risk as a result of certain intercompany financing transactions. The Company attempts to manage its transactional foreign currency exchange rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments, primarily foreign exchange forward contracts, or through natural hedging instruments. Based upon balances and exchange rates as of April 30, 2019, holding other variables constant, we believe that a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in all applicable foreign exchange rates would not have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows. As of April 30, 2019, our Ukrainian subsidiary had $4.3 million of net monetary assets denominated in Ukrainian hryvnia ("UAH"). We have attempted to minimize our net monetary asset position in Ukraine through reducing overall asset levels in Ukraine and through borrowing in UAH which serves as a natural hedging instrument offsetting our net UAH denominated assets. At certain times, currency and payment controls imposed by the National Bank of Ukraine have limited our ability to manage our net monetary asset position. While the UAH has recently remained relatively stable, an escalation of political tensions or economic instability could lead to significant UAH devaluations, which could have a material impact on our results of operations and cash flows.
In addition to transactional foreign currency exchange rate risk, we are also exposed to translational foreign currency exchange rate risk as we translate the results of operations and assets and liabilities of our foreign operations from their functional currency to the U.S. dollar. As a result, our results of operations, cash flows and net investment in our foreign operations may be adversely impacted by fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates. We believe that a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in all applicable foreign exchange rates, holding all other variables constant, would not have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. After evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the participation of the Company’s management, have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) are effective.
(b) Changes in internal controls. There has not been any change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during its most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are, from time to time, subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business. Such claims have, in the past, generally been covered by insurance. There can be no assurance that our insurance will be adequate to cover all liabilities that may arise out of claims brought against us, or that our insurance will cover all claims. We are not currently a party to any material litigation.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, including the important information in “Forward-Looking Statements,” you should carefully consider the “Risk Factors” discussed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Those factors, if they were to occur, could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements in this report, and may materially adversely affect our financial condition or future results. Although we are not aware of any other factors, aside from those discussed in our Form 10-K, that we currently anticipate will cause our forward-looking statements to differ materially from our future actual results, or materially affect the Company’s financial condition or future results, additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
