NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(In millions, except shares and per share data)


1.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) requirements for interim reporting. In our opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations.

These statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

~~Reclassification~~– We reclassified $6.6 million of payroll tax accruals from Other Current Liabilities to Employee Compensation and Benefits in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2018 to conform to the current year presentation. This reclassification is also reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and the respective prior year financial statements in Note 19.

~~Leases –~~ We assess whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We have elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all assets. Operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities are calculated based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the lease start date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease start date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease asset is increased by any lease payments made at or before the lease start date and reduced by lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The lease term includes options to renew or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. The depreciable life of lease assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased asset. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

~~Further details regarding leases are discussed in Notes 2 and 13.~~

New Accounting Pronouncements – In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). This ASU provides optional expedients to applying generally accepted accounting principles to certain contract modifications, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the reference rate reform, which affects the London Inter-bank Offered Rate, if certain criteria are met. The amendments are effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. We are evaluating whether to apply any of the expedients and/or exceptions.

Further details regarding the adoption of new accounting standards are discussed in Note 2.

We documented the summary of significant accounting policies in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. Other than the accounting policies noted above, there have been no material changes to our accounting policies since the filing of that report.


2.	Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

~~Leases~~Financial Instruments

On January 1, ~~2019,~~2020, we adopted ~~Accounting Standards Update ("ASU")~~ASU No. ~~2016-02,~~ ~~Leases~~2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic ~~842)~~326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and all related amendments. This ASU ~~requires lessees to recognize lease assets~~improves financial reporting by requiring more timely recording of credit losses on loans and ~~lease liabilities on the balance sheet.~~other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. Under the new guidance, ~~lessor accounting~~the ASU requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. We evaluated the impact of this amended guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and concluded that it is ~~largely unchanged.~~immaterial.

We ~~have elected to adopt~~estimate an allowance for doubtful accounts using a loss rate method. We considered the ~~standard on~~following in determining the ~~modified retrospective basis. We have also elected the package~~expected loss rate: (1) historical loss rate, (2) macroeconomic factors, and (3) creditworthiness of practical expedients, which permits us not to reassess our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. In addition, we have elected the short-term lease recognition whereby we will not recognize operating lease related assets or liabilities for leases with a lease term less than one year. We have also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all of our leases. We did not elect the hindsight practical expedient to determine the reasonably certain term of existing leases.customers.

The ~~impact~~historical loss rate is calculated by taking the yearly write-off expense, net of ~~adopting the new lease standard was the recognition of $44.8 million of lease assets and lease liabilities related to our operating leases. The adoption~~collections, as a percentage of the ~~new lease standard had no impact~~annual average balance of trade receivables for each of the past three years.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending allowance for doubtful accounts is as follows:



	Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:
December 31, 2019 balance	$	3.6
Charged to costs and expenses	0.3
Deductions^(a)	(0.3		)
March 31, 2020 balance	$	3.6

^(a) Includes accounts determined to ~~our Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows or Consolidated Statements of Equity.~~be uncollectible and charged against reserves.

~~Derivatives and Hedging~~

~~On January 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-12,~~ ~~Derivatives and Hedging~~ and all the related amendments to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 815 which aligns hedge accounting with risk management activities and simplifies the requirements to qualify for hedge accounting. Adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements. We continue to assess opportunities enabled by the new standard to expand our risk management strategies.

Deferred Revenue

We sell separately priced prepaid contracts to our customers where we receive payment at the inception of the contract and defer recognition of the consideration received because we have to satisfy future performance obligations. Our deferred revenue balance is primarily attributed to prepaid maintenance contracts on our machines ranging from 12 months to 60 months. In circumstances where prepaid contracts are bundled with machines, we use an observable price to determine stand-alone selling price for separate performance obligations.

The change in the deferred revenue balance for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	March 31
	2020			2019
Beginning balance	$	10.7		$	8.5

4.	Management Actions

~~During~~Restructuring Actions

In March 2020, we implemented a restructuring action in an effort to streamline our operating model in Japan. The pre-tax charge of $0.8 million in the first quarter of 2020 consisted of severance and was included in Selling and Administrative Expense in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. We expect to incur up to $2 million of costs related to this restructuring. The charge impacted our Asia Pacific (APAC) operating segment. We estimate the savings will offset the pre-tax charge approximately one year from the date of the action.

During 2019, we implemented a restructuring action to further our integration efforts related to the IPC Group. The pre-tax charge of ~~$4.3~~$4.8 million consisting of severance was included, ~~within~~with $0.3 million in Cost of Sales and $4.5 million in Selling and Administrative Expense in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The charge impacted our ~~EMEA~~Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) as well as our Americas operating ~~segment.~~segments. We expect no further charges related to this restructuring action. We estimate the savings ~~will~~have offset the pre-tax ~~charge approximately one year from the date of the action.~~charges incurred to date.

In 2019, we made the decision to discontinue certain product lines. During the first quarter of 2020, we recorded an additional $1.7 million in Cost of Sales to reflect our estimate of inventory that will not be sold.


5.	Acquisition

On January 4, 2019, we completed the acquisition of Hefei Gaomei Cleaning Machines Co., Ltd. and Anhui Rongen Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. (collectively "Gaomei"), privately held designers and manufacturers of commercial cleaning solutions based in China. The financial results for Gaomei have been included in the consolidated financial results since the date of closing.

Financial Covenants

In 2017, the Company and certain of our foreign subsidiaries entered into a secured Credit Agreement (the "2017 Credit Agreement") with JPMorgan, as administrative agent, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as syndication agent, Wells Fargo National Association, U.S. Bank National Association, and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as co-documentation agents, and the lenders (including JPMorgan) from time to time party thereto. The 2017 Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, including, but not limited to, covenants restricting the ~~company’s~~Company’s ability to incur indebtedness and liens and merge or consolidate with another ~~entity.~~entity, and expires in April 2022. The 2017 Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants requiring us to maintain a net leverage ratio of consolidated net indebtedness to consolidated earnings before income, taxes, depreciation and amortization, subject to certain adjustments ("Adjusted EBITDA") of not greater than 4.00 to 1, as well as requiring us to maintain aan interest coverage ratio of consolidated Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated interest expense of no less than 3.50 to 1 for the quarter ended March 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The 2017 Credit Agreement also contains a financial covenant requiring us to maintain a senior secured net leverage ratio of consolidated senior secured net indebtedness to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA ratio of not greater than 3.50 to 1. These financial covenants may restrict our ability to pay dividends and purchase outstanding shares of our common stock. In connection with the closing of the Gaomei acquisition, the Company elected an acquisition holiday as provided for under the 2017 Credit Agreement, which increased the net leverage ratio from 4.00 to 1 to 4.50 to 1 and the senior secured net leverage ratio from 3.50 to 1 to 4.00 to 1 during each quarter of 2019. We were in compliance with our financial covenants at March 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Debt Outstanding

Debt outstanding at March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018~~2019 consisted of the following:

^(1)(a)	Current portion of long-term debt includes $7.5 million of current maturities, a $21.5 million anticipated additional repayment on Credit Facility Borrowings, less $0.1 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, under our 2017 Credit Agreement, $0.9$1.0 million of current maturities of secured borrowings and ~~$0.3~~$0.1 million of current maturities of finance lease liabilities.

As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we had outstanding borrowings under our Senior Unsecured Notes of $300.0 million. ~~We had outstanding borrowings under our 2017 Credit Agreement, totaling $18.0 million under our term loan facility.~~ In addition, we had outstanding borrowings of ~~$44.0~~$165.0 million under our revolving facility and had letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding in the amount of ~~$3.3~~$3.2 million, leaving approximately ~~$152.7~~$31.8 million of unused borrowing capacity on our revolving facility. Although we are only required to make a minimum principal payment of $7.5 million during the next 12 months, we have both the intent and the ability to pay an additional $10.5 million on our term loan facility and an additional $11.0 million on our credit facility borrowings during the next year. As such, we have classified $29.0 million as current maturities of long-term debt. Commitment fees on unused lines of credit for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 were $0.1 million. The overall weighted average cost of debt is approximately ~~5.3%~~4.8% and net of a related cross-currency swap instrument is approximately ~~4.5%~~4.1%. Further details regarding the cross-currency swap instrument are discussed in Note 10.


9.	Warranty

We record a liability for warranty claims at the time of sale. The amount of the liability is based on the trend in the historical ratio of claims to sales, the historical length of time between the sale and resulting warranty claim, new product introductions and other factors. Warranty terms on machines generally range from one to four years. However, the majority of our claims are paid out within the first six to nine months following a sale. The majority of the liability for estimated warranty claims represents amounts to be paid out in the near term for qualified warranty issues, with immaterial amounts reserved to be paid for older equipment warranty issues.

The changes in warranty reserves for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 were as follows:

10.	Derivatives

Hedge Accounting and Hedging Programs

We recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and measure them at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value are accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting.

We evaluate hedge effectiveness on our hedges that are designated and qualify for hedge accounting at the inception of the hedge prospectively, as well as retrospectively, and record any ineffective portion of the hedging instruments along with the time value of purchased contracts in the same line item of the income statement as the item being hedged on our Consolidated Statements of ~~Operations.~~Earnings. In prior years, ineffective portions of hedging instruments and time value of purchased contracts were recorded in Net Foreign Currency Transaction Losses on our Consolidated Statements of ~~Operations.~~Earnings.

Our hedging policy establishes maximum limits for each counterparty to mitigate any concentration of risk.

Balance Sheet Hedging

Hedges of Foreign Currency Assets and Liabilities

We hedge our net recognized foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities with foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that the value of these assets and liabilities will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. These contracts hedge assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies and are carried at fair value as either assets or liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in the fair value recorded to Net Foreign Currency Transaction Losses in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. These contracts do not subject us to material balance sheet risk due to exchange rate movements because gains and losses on these derivatives are intended to offset gains and losses on the assets and liabilities being hedged. At March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the notional amounts of foreign currency forward exchange contracts outstanding not designated as hedging instruments were ~~$53.4~~$46.4 million and ~~$63.4~~$41.9 million, respectively.

Cash Flow Hedging

Hedges of Forecasted Foreign Currency Transactions

In countries outside the U.S., we transact business in U.S. dollars and in various other currencies. We may use foreign exchange option contracts or forward contracts to hedge certain cash flow exposures resulting from changes in these foreign currency exchange rates. These foreign exchange contracts, carried at fair value, have maturities of up to one year. We enter into these foreign exchange contracts to hedge a portion of our forecasted foreign currency denominated revenue in the normal course of business, and accordingly, they are not speculative in nature. The notional amounts of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges were ~~$3.0~~$3.2 million as of March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~none~~$3.0 million as of December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. The notional amounts of outstanding foreign currency option contracts designated as cash flow hedges were ~~$8.3~~$8.9 million and ~~$8.4~~$9.8 million as of March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively.

Foreign Currency Derivatives

We use foreign currency exchange rate derivatives to hedge our exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates for anticipated intercompany cash transactions between Tennant Company and its subsidiaries. We entered into Euro to U.S. dollar foreign exchange cross-currency swaps for all of the anticipated cash flows associated with an intercompany loan from a wholly-owned European subsidiary. We enter into these foreign exchange cross-currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency denominated cash flows associated with this intercompany loan, and accordingly, they are not speculative in nature. These cross-currency swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. The hedged cash flows as of March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018~~2019 included ~~€172.2~~€165.0 million and ~~€174.0~~€166.8 million of total notional values, respectively. As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the aggregate scheduled interest payments over the course of the loan and related swaps amounted to ~~€22.2~~€15.0 million. The scheduled maturity and principal payment of the loan and related swaps of €150.0 million are due in April 2022. There were no new cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges as of March 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

The fair value of derivative instruments on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018~~2019 was as follows:

11.	Fair Value Measurements

Estimates of fair value for financial assets and financial liabilities are based on the framework established in the accounting guidance for fair value measurements. The framework defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. The framework discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow) and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The framework utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

Our population of assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements at March 31, ~~2019~~2020 is as follows:

Our foreign currency forward exchange and option contracts are valued using observable Level 2 market expectations at the measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. Further details regarding our foreign currency forward exchange and option contracts are discussed in Note 10.

Contingent consideration is valued using a probability-weighted ~~scenario~~ analysis of projected gross profit ~~growth rates~~ and ~~discounted at a risk-free rate adjusted for a credit spread.~~integration milestones. Actual ~~gross profit growth rates~~results may differ significantly from those used in the estimate above, which may affect future payments. Changes in future payments will be reflected in future operating results as they occur.

The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable, Other Current Assets, Accounts Payable and Other Current Liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

The fair ~~market~~value and carrying value of ~~our Long-Term Debt approximates cost~~total debt, including current portion, were $457.4 million and $463.6 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2020.The fair value and carrying value of total debt, including current portion, were $357.2 million and $338.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2019. The fair value was calculated based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for bank loans with similar terms and remaining ~~maturities.~~maturities, which is a Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

From time to time, we measure certain assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis, including evaluation of long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, as part of a business acquisition. These assets are measured and recognized at amounts equal to the fair value determined as of the date of acquisition. Fair value valuations are based on the information available as

of the acquisition date and the expectations and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by us. There are inherent uncertainties and management judgment required in these determinations. The fair value measurements of assets and liabilities assumed as part of a business acquisition are based on valuations involving significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3, in the fair value hierarchy.

These assets are also subject to periodic impairment testing by comparing the respective carrying value of each asset to the estimated fair value of the reporting unit or asset group in which they reside. In the event we determine these assets to be impaired, we would recognize an impairment loss equal to

the amount by which the carrying value of the reporting unit, impairment asset or asset group exceeds its estimated fair value. These periodic impairment tests utilize company-specific assumptions involving unobservable inputs, or Level 3, in the fair value hierarchy.


12.	Retirement Benefit Plans

Our defined benefit pension plans and postretirement medical plan are described in Note 1513 of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. We have contributed $0.1 million and $0.2 million during the first quarter of 2020 to our pension plans and postretirement medical plan, respectively. We contributed $0.1 million and $0.2 million during the first quarter of 2019 to our pension plans and postretirement medical plan, respectively.

13.	~~Leases~~

~~We lease facilities, vehicles and equipment under the operating lease agreements, which include both monthly and longer-term arrangements.~~

Certain operating leases for vehicles contain residual value guarantee provisions, which would become due at the expiration of the operating lease agreement if the fair value of the leased vehicles is less than the guaranteed residual value. As of March 31, 2019, of those leases that contain residual value guarantees, the aggregate residual value at lease expiration was $13.6 million, of which we have guaranteed $7.6 million. As of March 31, 2019, we have recorded a liability for the estimated end of term loss related to this residual value guarantee of $0.3 million for certain vehicles within our fleet.

~~16.~~15.	Income Taxes

We and our subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of numerous state and foreign jurisdictions. We are generally no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for taxable years before ~~2015~~2016 and, with limited exceptions, state and foreign income tax examinations for taxable years before ~~2014.~~2015.

We recognize potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in Income Tax Expense. In addition to the liability of ~~$5.5~~$7.5 million for unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, there was approximately ~~$0.4~~$0.7 million for accrued interest and penalties. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate as of March 31, ~~2019~~2020 was ~~$5.3~~$7.4 million. To the extent interest and penalties are not assessed with respect to uncertain tax positions, amounts accrued will be revised and reflected as an adjustment of the Income Tax Expense.

We are currently ~~undergoing income~~under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2016 and 2017 tax ~~examinations in various state and foreign jurisdictions covering 2014 to 2017.~~years. Although the outcome of this matter cannot currently be determined, we believe adequate provision has been made for any potential unfavorable financial statement impact. Although the final outcome of these examinations cannot be currently determined, we believe that we have adequate reserves with respect to these examinations.


~~17.~~16.	Share-Based Compensation

Our share-based compensation plans are described in Note 1918 of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. During the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, we recognized total Share-Based Compensation Expense of ~~$3.3~~$2.8 million and ~~$2.7~~$3.3 million, respectively. The total excess tax benefit recognized for share-based compensation arrangements during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 ~~and 2018~~ was ~~$0.2~~$0.4 million and ~~$0.0~~$0.2 million, respectively.

During the first three months of ~~2019,~~2020, we issued ~~16,211~~16,537 restricted shares. The weighted average grant date fair value of each share awarded was ~~$63.65.~~$82.29. Restricted share awards generally have a three year vesting period from the effective date of the grant. The total fair value of shares vested during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 ~~and 2018~~ was ~~$1.0~~$0.7 million and ~~$0.8~~$1.0 million, respectively.

Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes in our market risk since December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. For additional information, refer to Item 7A of our ~~2018~~ annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018~~.2019.


Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, ~~2019~~2020 (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and our principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.	Legal Proceedings

There are no material pending legal proceedings other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

~~We documented~~Other than the risk set out below, there have been no material changes to our risk factors in Item 1A of Part I of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2018~~.2019.

Uncertainty surrounding the impacts and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic

The coronavirus ("COVID-19") outbreak that originated in China at the beginning of 2020 is causing volatility and economic disruption across the globe. The impact of COVID-19 on our business and financial performance depends on evolving factors that we cannot accurately predict, including the duration of the pandemic, restrictions on travel and transportation, the effect on our customers and on the global supply chain, the demand for our products, government actions that have or could result in further closures of our manufacturing plants, and the pace of economic recovery when the COVID-19 pandemic subsides.

Certain of our manufacturing plants temporarily suspended operations either due to government restrictions or employee health concerns. There may be a risk of future health concerns and we cannot predict future disruptions of our plants or how long they would last.

Our customers have been nonegatively impacted which may continue to have a material ~~changes~~adverse impact on our sales. In addition, our suppliers may not have the ability to provide us with parts needed to manufacture our products. This may result in delays in shipments to us and also to our customers, which would affect our results of operations.

If the pandemic continues for a long duration, we will need to assess our liquidity needs. A sustained disruption in the global economy could materially affect our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations and could require us to seek additional sources of liquidity or take further actions. It could also impact our ability to meet our strategic objectives.

As a result of the coronavirus pandemic, our risk factors ~~since the filing of that report.~~previously disclosed in our 2019 Form 10-K have also been heightened.


Item 2.	Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On October 31, 2016, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of an additional 1,000,000 shares of our common stock. This is in addition to the 392,263 shares remaining under our prior repurchase program. Share repurchases are made from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, primarily to offset the dilutive effect of shares issued through our share-based compensation programs. As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, our 2017 Credit Agreement restricts the payment of dividends or repurchasing of stock requiring that, after giving effect to such payments, no default exists or would result from such payment. Additionally, cash dividends are restricted to $5.0 million per quarter and approved levels of other restricted payments range from $50.0 million to unlimited based on our net leverage ratio (not taking into account any acquisition holiday) after giving effect to such payment. Our Senior Notes due 2025 also contain certain restrictions, which are generally less restrictive than those contained in the 2017 Credit Agreement.
