3. BASIC AND DILUTED INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

~~The Company has a simple capital structure consisting of~~Basic and diluted income per common ~~stock and preferred stock, with only shares of common stock outstanding. The Company had 0 stock options or any other dilutive instruments outstanding during~~share were calculated using the ~~three and six months ended June 30, 2021 or 2020.~~ following:


	Three Months Ended
	March 31
	2022		2021

Net Income	$	2,065	$	3,178

Basic and Diluted Common Shares
Weighted Average Shares Outstanding - Basic		11,417		11,410
Dilution for Assumed Exercises of Nonvested Restricted Stock Units		4		—
Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding - Diluted		11,421		11,410

Basic income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and potential dilutive common shares outstanding. The Company uses the treasury stock method to account for the effect of nonvested restricted stock units on the computation of diluted income per share. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, NaN of the nonvested restricted stock units would have been anti-dilutive. There were 0 nonvested restricted stock units granted or outstanding during the ~~period.~~three months ended March 31, 2021.

4. REVENUE

Substantially all of our revenue is generated from sales of towing and recovery equipment. As such, disaggregation of revenue by product line would not provide useful information because all product lines have substantially similar characteristics. However, revenue streams are tracked by the geographic location of customers. This disaggregated information is presented in the table below.


	For the Three Months Ended				For the Six Months Ended				For the Three Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,				March 31,
	2021		2020		2021		2020		2022		2021
Net Sales:
North America	$	161,882	$	107,460	$	308,570	$	251,316	$	194,351	$	146,687
Foreign		19,276		21,069		42,500		53,267		21,194		23,225
	$	181,158	$	128,529	$	351,070	$	304,583	$	215,545	$	169,912

Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied. Except for certain extended service contracts on a small percentage of units sold, the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied, and sales revenue is recognized when products are shipped from the Company’s facilities. From time to time, revenue is recognized under a bill and hold arrangement. Recognition of revenue on bill and hold arrangements occurs when control transfers to the customer. The bill and hold arrangement must be substantive,

~~Table of Contents~~

and the product must be separately identified as belonging to the customer, ready for physical transfer, and unavailable to be used or directed to another customer.

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for the transfer of products. Sales and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Warranty related costs are recognized as an expense at the time products are sold and a reserve is established. Depending on the terms of the arrangement, for certain contracts the Company may defer the recognition of a portion of the consideration received because a future obligation has not yet been satisfied, such as an extended service contract. An observable price is used to determine the stand-alone selling price for separate performance obligations or a cost plus margin approach is utilized when one is not available.

Contract assets primarily relate to the Company’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date. The contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. Contract liabilities primarily relate to performance obligations to be satisfied in the future. As of ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, contract liability balances were each ~~$272,~~$257, and are included in accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. NaN revenue related to contract liability balances was recognized during the

Table of Contents

three ~~or six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022, or during the three months ended ~~June 30, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $37 of contract liabilities into earnings after satisfaction of related performance obligations.~~March 31, 2021. The Company did 0t have any contract assets at ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 or December 31, ~~2020.~~ 2021.

The Company extends credit to customers in the normal course of business. Collections from customers are continuously monitored and an allowance for credit losses is maintained based on historical experience adjusted for current conditions and reasonable forecasts capturing country and industry-specific economic factors. The Company also considers any specific customer collection issues. Since the Company’s trade receivables are largely similar, the Company evaluates its allowance for credit losses as one portfolio segment. At origination, the Company evaluates credit risk based on a variety of credit quality factors including prior payment experience, customer financial information, credit ratings, probabilities of default, industry trends and other internal metrics. On an ongoing basis, data by each major customer is regularly reviewed based on past-due status to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses and actual write-offs are charged against the allowance. Terms on accounts receivable vary and are based on specific terms agreed upon with each customer. Write-offs of accounts receivable were ~~not material~~de minimis during the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 and ~~2020.~~during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Trade accounts receivable are generally diversified due to the number of entities comprising the Company’s customer base and their dispersion across many geographic regions. The Company also frequently monitors the creditworthiness of the customers to whom the credit is granted in the normal course of business. Sales from 1 customer made up approximately 10% of total Company sales during the three months ended March 31, 2022. No one customer made up greater than 10% of total ~~company~~Company sales during the three ~~or six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2021 and 2020.~~March 31, 2021. Trade accounts receivable from 1 customer made up approximately 10% of total Company accounts receivable at March 31, 2022. There were ~~also~~ no customers with a trade ~~account~~accounts receivable greater than 10% of total accounts receivable at ~~June 30, 2021 or~~ December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

5. INVENTORIES

Inventory costs include materials, labor and factory overhead. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, determined on a ~~first-in, first-out~~moving average unit cost basis. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, valuation and other factors in determining net realizable value. Revisions of these estimates could result in the need for adjustments. Inventories, net of reserves, at ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2020~~2021 consisted of the following:


	2021		2020		2022		2021

6. LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS

~~Credit Facility and Other Long-Term Obligations~~

Credit Facility

The Company’s current loan agreement with First Horizon Bank, which governs its existing $50,000 unsecured revolving credit facility with a maturity date of May 31, 2027, contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, and financial, affirmative and negative covenants for loan agreements of this kind. The credit facility restricts the payment of cash dividends if the payment would cause the Company to be in violation of the minimum tangible net worth test or the leverage ratio test in the loan agreement, among various other customary covenants. The Company has been in compliance with these covenants throughout ~~2020~~2021 and during the first ~~half~~three months of ~~2021,~~2022, and it is anticipated that the Company will continue to be in compliance during the remainder of ~~2021.~~2022.

~~Table of Contents~~

In the absence of a default, all borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at the LIBOR Rate plus 1.00% or 1.25% per annum, depending on the leverage ratio. The Company pays a non-usage fee under the current loan agreement at a rate per annum equal to between 0.15% and 0.35% of the unused amount of the credit facility, which fee is paid quarterly.

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company drew $10,000 on its credit facility for working capital needs and retained $10,000 in outstanding borrowings under its credit facility at March 31, 2022. At ~~June 30, 2021 and~~ December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had $0 in outstanding borrowings under the credit facility. InAt March 2020, the Company drew $25,000 on its existing credit facility for working capital needs and as a precautionary measure to ensure future short-term cash flow requirements were met due to operational disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. However, during the second and third quarters of 2020, the Company repaid the balance in full, as its cash position was stronger than anticipated. At June 30, 2021,31, 2022, the Company had cash and temporary investments of ~~$53,934.~~$29,292.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Leasing Activities

The Company leases certain equipment and facilities under long-term non-cancellable operating and finance lease agreements. The leases expire at various dates through ~~2026.~~2027. Certain of the lease agreements contain renewal options. For those leases that have renewal options, the Company included these renewal periods in the lease term if the Company determined it was reasonably certain to exercise the renewal option. Lease payments during such renewal periods were also considered in the calculation of right-of-use assets and lease obligations.

Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease obligations are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Right-of-use assets are recognized at the commencement date as the initial measurement of the lease liability, plus payments made prior to lease commencement and any initial direct costs. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term for operating leases. For finance leases, expense is recognized as the expense from straight-line amortization of the right-of-use asset plus the periodic interest expense from the lease obligation. Short-term leases have a lease term of twelve months or less. The Company recognizes short-term leases on a straight-line basis and does not record a related right-of-use asset or lease obligation for such contracts.

Right-of-use assets related to finance leases are included as a component of property, plant and equipment, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and had the following values at ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Other Commitments

At ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 and December ~~30, 2020,~~31, 2021, the Company had commitments of approximately ~~$5,012~~$9,590 and ~~$7,068,~~$5,052, respectively, for construction and acquisition of property, plant and equipment. The Company is also migrating its enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to a multi-tenant cloud environment which includes global ERP, human capital management, data analytics and the use of artificial intelligence. ~~Phase 1 of this migration was completed during the first quarter of 2021 and the 2 remaining phases will be done over the next three years.~~ Related to this project, at ~~June 30, 2021~~both March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had commitments of approximately ~~$3,754 and $5,266, respectively,~~$3,751 in software license fees payable in installments through 2025.

Contingencies

The Company has entered into arrangements with third-party lenders where it has agreed, in the event of default by a distributor within the independent distributor network, to repurchase from the third-party lender ~~company~~Company products repossessed from the independent distributor customer. These arrangements are typically subject to a maximum repurchase amount. The maximum amount of collateral that the Company could be required to purchase was approximately ~~$42,326~~$55,054 at ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, and ~~$56,822~~$47,883 at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The Company’s risk under these arrangements is mitigated by the value of the products that would be repurchased as part of the transaction. The Company considered the fair value at inception of its ~~liability~~commitment under these arrangements and concluded that ~~the liability~~there is no probable loss associated with these potential repurchase obligations ~~was not probable~~ and thus ~~not material~~no associated liability was recognized at ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 or December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

~~Table of Contents~~

The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the normal course of its business. Litigation is subject to various inherent uncertainties, and it is possible that some of such matters could be resolved unfavorably to the Company, which could result in substantial damages against the Company. The Company establishes accruals for matters that are probable and reasonably estimable and maintains product liability and other insurance that management believes to be adequate. Management believes that any liability that may ultimately result from the resolution of any such matters in excess of available insurance coverage and accruals will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Unless the context indicates otherwise, all dollar amounts in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are in thousands.

Executive Overview

Miller Industries, Inc. is The World’s Largest Manufacturer of Towing and Recovery ~~Equipment~~^®Equipment®, with domestic manufacturing subsidiaries in Tennessee and Pennsylvania, and foreign manufacturing subsidiaries in France and the United Kingdom. We offer a broad range of equipment to meet our customers’ design, capacity and cost requirements under our ~~Century~~^®Century®, ~~Vulcan~~^®Vulcan®, ~~Challenger~~^®Challenger®, ~~Holmes~~^®Holmes®, ~~Champion~~^®Champion®, Chevron™, ~~Eagle~~^®Eagle®, ~~Titan~~^®Titan®, Jige™ and Boniface™ brand names. In this Item 27 – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the words “Miller Industries,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” “ours” and “us” refer to Miller Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries or any of them.

Our management focuses on a variety of key indicators to monitor our overall operating and financial performance. These indicators include measurements of revenue, operating income, gross margin, net income, earnings per share, capital expenditures and cash flow.

We derive revenues primarily from product sales made through our network of domestic and foreign independent distributors. Our revenues are sensitive to a variety of factors including general economic conditions as well as demand for, and price of, our products, our technological competitiveness, our reputation for providing quality products and reliable service, competition within our industry, and the cost and availability of purchased component parts, truck chassis and raw materials (including aluminum, steel and petroleum-related products)~~, purchased component parts and truck chassis.~~.

Our history of innovation in the towing and recovery industry has been an important factor behind our growth over the last decade and we believe that our continued emphasis on research and development will be a key factor in our future growth. Our domestic plant expansion and modernization projects have installed sophisticated robotics and implemented other advanced technologies to optimize our manufacturing processes. We completed phase one of the implementation of an enterprise software solution during ~~the first quarter of~~ 2021, which we expect to substantially improve our administrative efficiency and customer service levels. As we retain our focus toward modernization, we continue to invest in robotics and automated material handling equipment across all of our domestic manufacturing facilities.

We opened our free-standing R&D facility in Chattanooga in 2019, where we pursue various innovations in our products and manufacturing processes, some of which are intended to enhance the safety of our employees and reduce our environmental impact. ~~Our latest new product, the M100, which we believe to be the world’s largest tow truck, was introduced in the fall of 2019.~~

All of our domestic facilities have undergone substantial expansion and modernization projects during the period ~~2016~~2017 to ~~2020,~~2021, as we have invested over ~~$97,000~~$82,000 on property, plant and equipment over this five-year period, including ~~approximately $25,000 on~~ our ~~Pennsylvania consolidation and expansion project and approximately $29,000 on building and~~most recent fabrication equipment ~~improvements~~upgrades at our ~~two~~Greeneville, Tennessee ~~locations.~~facilities. These projects not only increased our production capacity, but also included installing sophisticated robotics and implementing other advanced technologies to optimize our manufacturing process.

Our industry is cyclical in nature. Until the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the overall demand for our products and resulting revenues in recent years have been positively affected by favorable economic conditions, such as lower fuel prices, and positive consumer sentiment in our industry. However, historically, the overall demand for our products and our resulting revenues ~~have~~has at times been negatively affected by:

●

wavering levels of consumer confidence;

●

volatility and disruption in domestic and international capital and credit markets and the resulting decrease in the availability of financing, including floor plan financing, for our customers and towing operators;

●

significant periodic increases in fuel and insurance costs and their negative effect on the ability of our customers to purchase towing and related equipment; and

●

the overall effects of global, political, economic and health conditions.

We remain concerned about the continuing effects of these factors on the towing and recovery industry, and we continue to monitor our overall cost structure to see that it remains in line with business conditions.

Table of Contents

In addition, we have been and will continue to be affected by changes in the prices that we pay for raw materials, particularly aluminum, steel, petroleum-related products and other raw materials, which represent a substantial part of our total cost of operations. ~~Prices in raw materials can be affected by tariffs and quantitative restrictions, such as those that were imposed by the U.S. government in 2018.~~ Historically, we have implemented price increases on our products to offset price increases in the raw materials that we use. We also developed alternatives to some of the components used in our production process that incorporate these raw materials, and our suppliers have implemented these alternatives in the production of our component parts. We continue to monitor raw material prices and availability in order to more favorably position the Company in this dynamic market.

~~Impact of COVID-19 and~~ Recent Developments

~~The spread~~As the economy improved over the course of the COVID-19 virus during 2020 caused an economic downturn on a global scale, as well as significant volatility in the financial markets. During the month of March 2020, we enacted limited shutdowns of all of our domestic facilities to make appropriate modifications to our operations because of COVID-19, which allowed us to continue to serve our customers, while taking precautions to provide a safe work environment for our employees and customers. Since that time and through the present, we have been rotating the majority of our workforce every four days, have designated periods of non-production time for sanitation efforts, have adjusted work schedules to maximize our capacity while adhering to recommended precautions such as social distancing, and have established and implemented work from home provisions where possible. As part of our ongoing safety measures, we temporarily may suspend operations from time to time to clean and disinfect areas within our facilities. We enacted such limited suspensions from time to time during 2020 at certain of our domestic facilities. Our international operations have also been affected by various comparable requirements of governmental agencies and safety related operational adjustments. These safety modifications continue to have an adverse impact on our plant productivity, although the impact has been less severe as we have become more accustomed to working under them. We are unable to predict when we may be able to safely relax these new operating measures that were adopted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In March 2020, we drew $25,000 on our existing credit facility for working capital needs and as a precautionary measure to ensure future short-term cash flow requirements were met during the heightened uncertainty resulting2021 from the ~~COVID-19 pandemic. However, during the remainder~~initial phases of 2020 we repaid the balance in full, as our cash position was stronger than anticipated. At June 30, 2021, we had cash and temporary investments of $53,934. Although our cash position is strong, we continue to consider other steps that could be implemented to conserve liquidity in these uncertain times.

~~While during 2020 we experienced no material disruptions in our supply of parts, components and materials due to~~ the COVID-19 pandemic, we had material curtailments of new chassis deliveries due to shutdowns and production slowdowns at our suppliers’ facilities during the second and third quarters of 2020. During the second quarter of 2020, most of these facilities were operating at a reduced capacity, but returned to operating at levels sufficient to meet our requirements by the end of the third quarter of 2020. We also experienced reductions in orders for our products at the beginning of the pandemic. This depressed demand along with the decreases in deliveries of chassis caused us to temporarily shut our domestic plants in Pennsylvania and Greeneville, Tennessee for several weeks at the end of the second quarter of 2020 and for the first few weeks of the third quarter of 2020. Our international plants also were adversely impacted and experienced shutdowns during the second quarter of 2020. While all of our plants have now reopened, the possibility of new shutdowns of one or more of our facilities due to the COVID-19 pandemic remains.

~~As the economy continues to improve in 2021,~~increasingly significant supply chain challenges such as shortages ~~in semiconductors~~ and ~~other~~delivery delays in component parts and ~~record high steel prices are impacting the operations of many companies on a global scale. Such supply chain disruptions during the first and second quarters of 2021~~raw materials which impacted our ability to obtain ~~certain~~on a timely basis various raw materials and purchased component parts that are necessary to our production processes, ~~including our ability to obtain chassis from third party suppliers, and also resulted in~~as well as substantial price increases for many of these materials and component parts. ~~During the same period, we have experienced an increase~~We also continued to experience increases in employee turnover rates and difficulties in hiring new workers for our skilled workforce, which ~~has~~ caused increased recruiting, training and retention ~~costs.~~costs during this period. These supply chain difficulties were generally lessening as 2022 began but the impact of the war in Ukraine, lingering effects of COVID-19 in the U.S. and abroad and general economic conditions have slowed this improvement.

We implemented several price increases and surcharges for our products during 2021. In an effort to address the accelerating price increases for materials and component parts that we experienced in the first quarter of 2022 (particularly after the commencement of the war in Ukraine), we recently increased our previously announced April 1, 2022 surcharge from 3% to 11% and our previously announced 5% price increase effective June 1, 2022 remains unchanged. However, these additional increases are being implemented during the second quarter of 2022, while the higher costs for raw materials and purchased component parts that we use is felt much sooner. These factors had a substantial adverse impact on our net income during the second half of 2021 and first quarter of 2022, and they likely will continue to have such adverse impact if prices for our materials and component parts continue to increase over the course of 2022.

Supply chain disruptions and workforce retention challenges continued to significantly reduce our ability to complete finished goods without timing delays during the first quarter 2022 and to increase our costs of operations. In addition, general inflationary pressures have substantially increased in the first quarter of 2022. We continue to monitor these supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures (including the impact of the Russia conflict with Ukraine) and attempt to mitigate the risk associated with ~~them. However,~~them, including by implementing the price increases (including those described above), by pursuing additional production capabilities through capital deployment, such as our first quarter purchase of an additional small facility in Ooltewah, TN to be used for the production of small carrier units, and by relying more heavily on our in-house fabrication capabilities, which were significantly expanded in 2020.

Based on our strong backlog, announced surcharge and price increases and the current status of our process improvements, we believe we are well positioned to improve our operating results over the course of 2022, but our performance will be heavily influenced by whether supply chain constraints and inflationary pressures worsen due to the war in Ukraine or other geopolitical factors, the lingering effects of COVID-19, general economic factors or any other reason. The impact of ~~possible disruptions~~these factors remains largely out of our control, and ~~the risk of an unfavorable~~we currently anticipate that they will continue to have a material adverse impact on our production ~~at any~~and net income over the course of ~~our facilities will likely continue throughout 2021.~~2022.

At December 31, 2021, the Company owed $0 under its primary credit facility. During the first three months of 2022, the Company drew $10,000 for working capital needs. The ~~impact~~Company also drew an additional $10,000 from the credit facility for working capital needs subsequent to March 31, 2022 and retains a balance on its credit facility of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to unfold and certain countries, states and localities continue to experience surges in COVID-19 cases from time to time. The extent of the pandemic’s effect on our operational and financial performance will depend in large part on future developments, which cannot be predicted with confidence$20,000 at this time. Future developments include the duration, scope and severity of the ongoing pandemic, including as a result of the emergence of new strains of the virus and any future resurgences of COVID-19 or variant strains, the actions taken to contain or mitigate its impact, the impact on governmental programs and budgets, the success of vaccination programs, the development of treatments or other vaccines, the demand for new equipment from towing equipment operators, and the resumption of widespread economic activity. We are continuing to monitor orders from our customers for COVID-19 pandemic related changes. While we know that COVID-19 related changes to our operating processes have and will continue to impact our production levels for so long as they are in place, due to the inherent uncertainty of the unprecedented and rapidly evolving situation, we are unable to

predict with any confidence the likely impact of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic on our future operations. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may experience materially adverse impacts to our business due to any resulting economic recession or depression, or to a general reduction in miles driven on roadways due to a decrease in travel.May 4, 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require us to make estimates. Certain accounting policies are deemed “critical,” as they require management’s highest degree of judgment, estimations and assumptions. The accounting policies deemed to be most critical to our financial position and results of operations are those related to accounts receivable, inventory, long-lived assets, warranty reserves, revenues, and income taxes. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies during the first ~~six~~three months of ~~2021.~~2022.

For additional information, refer to our summary of significant accounting policies in Note 2 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" in Part IV, Item 15 and "Critical Accounting Policies" in Part II, Item 7 of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Costs of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 17.3% to $314,649 from $268,318 for the comparable period in 2020. Costs of operations increased as a percentage of sales to 89.6%, compared to 88.1% for the comparable period in 2020, which reflects increased fixed manufacturing overhead per unit of revenue and increases in the raw materials prices caused by escalating inflation.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased to $23,070 from $21,041 for the comparable period in 2020 due to increases in software fees, personnel related costs, and a normalization in spending in comparison to the cutbacks from the second quarter of 2020. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased to 6.6% from 6.9% in the comparable period in 2020, due primarily to increases in the revenue stream.

Interest expense, net decreased to $615 from $788 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the prior year period. Decreases in interest expense, net were primarily due to decreases in floor plan interest payments and decreases in interest on the credit facility.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash ~~provided by~~used in operating activities was ~~$5,219~~$28,936 for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, compared to cash provided by operating activities of ~~$23,035~~$2,847 in the comparable period in ~~2020.~~2021. Cash provided by or used in operating activities is generally attributable to the receipt of payments from our customers as settlement of their contractual obligation once we have fulfilled all performance obligations related to our contracts with them. These cash receipts are netted with payments for purchases of inventory, materials used in manufacturing, and other expenses that are necessary in the ordinary course of our operations, such as utilities and taxes. The change in net cash ~~provided by~~flows from operating activities during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2022, in comparison to the three months ended March 31, 2021, is primarily due to ~~the increase~~recent increases in ~~cash from operating activities during the second quarter of 2020, as the decrease~~inventory purchases associated with increased production levels and necessary to mitigate supply chain constraints, coupled with increases in ~~production from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic during the second quarter of 2020 caused less cash~~receivables related to be used during the six months ended June 30, 2020, while pre-pandemic receivables continued to be collected.

Prior to applying a discount rate to our lease liabilities, at ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, we had approximately ~~$1,428~~$1,264 and ~~$1,575~~$1,328 in non-cancelable operating lease obligations, and ~~$26~~$10 and ~~$38~~$15 in non-cancelable finance lease obligations, respectively.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

In the normal course of our business, we are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates that could impact our results of operations and financial position.

Interest Rate Risk

Changes in interest rates affect the interest paid on indebtedness under the credit facility because outstanding amounts of indebtedness under the credit facility are subject to variable interest rates. Under the credit facility, the non-default rate of interest is equal to the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus 1.00% or 1.25% per annum, depending on the leverage ratio, for a rate of interest ~~1.10%~~1.45% at ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022. A one percent change in the interest rate on our variable-rate debt would not have materially impacted our financial position, results of operations or cash flows as of and for the three ~~or six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We are subject to risk arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to our international operations in Europe. We manage our exposure to our foreign currency exchange rate risk through our regular operating and financing activities. Additionally, from time to time, we enter into certain forward foreign currency exchange contracts.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our ~~co-Chief~~Chief Executive ~~Officers (CEOs)~~Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon this evaluation, our ~~CEOs~~CEO and CFO have concluded that the 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 are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the period covered by this report 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

We are, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the normal course of our business. Litigation is subject to various inherent uncertainties, and it is possible that some of such matters could be resolved unfavorably to us, which could result in substantial damages against us. We establish accruals for matters that are probable and reasonably estimable and maintain product liability and other insurance that management believes to be adequate. Management believes that any liability that may ultimately result from the resolution of any such matters in excess of available insurance coverage and accruals will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

~~The Company is supplementing~~There have been no material changes to the risk factors ~~previously disclosed under Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of the Company’s~~included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2020, as supplemented in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021, with the risk factors set forth below.~~

~~The continuing COVID-19 pandemic may adversely affect our revenues, results of operations and financial condition.~~

The U.S. and other countries are experiencing outbreaks of several variants of COVID-19, which are continuing to spread to areas where we, our customers, our suppliers and our end users do business. The outbreak has resulted in governments around the world implementing at times stringent measures to help control the spread of the virus, including quarantines, “shelter in place” and “stay at home” orders, travel restrictions, business curtailments, school closures, and other measures. We are considered a critical infrastructure industry, as defined by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and were thus exempt from state and local business closure orders that were previously in effect in states where we have manufacturing facilities. However, as the pandemic continues, such orders and restrictions may be implemented or reinstated in states or localities that experience a rebound or surge in COVID-19 cases, including as a result of new variants of the virus that may be more transmissible or virulent. Other organizations, businesses and individuals are taking additional steps to avoid or reduce infection, including limiting travel and staying home from work. These measures taken to curb the spread of COVID-19 are disrupting normal business operations both in and outside of affected areas, including our business operations.

We have made and continue to make what we believe to be appropriate modifications to our operations because of COVID-19 to allow us to protect our employees while operating all our facilities consistent with applicable governmental guidelines and orders. We continue to monitor government recommendations impacting our operations and may need to enact further precautionary measures to help minimize the risk of our employees being exposed to COVID-19, which could have a further adverse impact on our plant production levels. As part of our ongoing safety measures, we may also decide to temporarily suspend operations to clean and disinfect areas within our facilities, as needed to protect our employees, which may have an adverse impact on our plant productivity. We enacted such limited suspensions from time to time at certain of our domestic facilities during 2020. If our employees are unable to work effectively, including due to illness, quarantines, any temporary limited suspension of operations, government actions or other restrictions in connection with COVID-19 or variants of COVID-19, our operations may be adversely affected.

~~Table of Contents~~

In addition, employee turnover rates in the broader global economy have increased during the COVID-19 pandemic and may continue to remain elevated. Since the economy has begun to recover from the impact of the pandemic, we have experienced substantial increases in employee turnover and difficulties in hiring new workers for our skilled workforce, which has caused increased recruiting, training and retention costs. This trend is anticipated to continue over the near term, and possibly longer.

The businesses of towing and recovery equipment operators have been disrupted and they have limited and may continue to limit spending as a result of COVID-19, which could negatively impact their willingness to purchase new equipment from us or our independent distributors, and ultimately adversely affect our revenues. During the first half of 2020 we saw order cancellations and softening of demand, which could again worsen depending on the duration, spread, and severity of the ongoing pandemic. The cancellation of major industry shows and events also reduced our ability to meet with existing and potential new customers to market our products.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a material adverse impact on our financial results and business operations, and economic and health conditions in the United States and across most of the globe continue to change dramatically from day to day as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations is unknown and will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the outbreak, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the emergence of new strains of the virus and any future resurgences of COVID-19 or variant strains, the timing of our chassis and other suppliers resuming normal shipment levels, the effect of the pandemic on spending levels of towing and recovery equipment operators, the effect of the pandemic on our employees and employee turnover rates, and any additional preventative and protective actions that governments, or we or other businesses, may direct, which may result in an extended period of continued business disruption and reduced operations. Any resulting financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but should be anticipated to have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may experience materially adverse impacts to our business due to any resulting economic recession or depression, or to a general reduction in miles driven on roadways due to a decrease in travel.

Our dependence upon outside suppliers for our raw materials, including aluminum, steel, and petroleum-related products, other component parts and chassis, leaves us subject to changes in price and availability (including as a result of increased demand due to improving economic conditions, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the imposition of additional tariffs) and delays in receiving supplies of such materials, parts or chassis.

We are dependent upon outside suppliers for our raw material needs and other purchased component parts, and events beyond our control could have an adverse effect on the cost or availability of raw materials and purchased component parts. Steel, aluminum, fuel and other commodity prices have from time to time experienced high volatility depending on market conditions and global demand. For example, steel prices increased considerably during the first quarter of 2021 and continuing into the second quarter as a result of the improving global economy and remain at record highs. The Company uses a substantial amount of imported steel and aluminum in its products. Price increases or changes in payment terms from our suppliers of raw materials or purchased component parts could impact our ability to secure necessary raw materials or purchased component parts, or to secure such materials and parts at favorable prices. In addition, government actions related to tariffs on imports and trade policies have previously impacted, and have the potential to further impact, pricing of raw materials, such as steel and aluminum. For example, in 2018 the United States government imposed import tariffs and restrictions on imports for steel products and aluminum products.

In addition, our third party suppliers’ ability to supply us with truck chassis and component parts is limited by their available capacity to manufacture the chassis and component parts we require, and to secure adequate freight capacity to deliver them to our facilities. During the first half of 2021, the global semiconductor chip shortage has also contributed to varying increases in lead times necessary for us to secure certain component parts from our third party suppliers. As the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic declines and the global chip shortage continues, suppliers ramping up from reduced operating levels have experienced supply chain challenges and have been at times, and may in the future be, unable to meet our requirements for purchased component parts and truck chassis. For example, during the first half of 2021, supply chain disruptions impacted our ability to obtain certain raw materials and purchased component parts that are necessary to our production processes, as well as chassis from third party suppliers, and also resulted in substantial price increases for many materials and parts. Demand for our products could also be negatively affected by supply delays of truck chassis and other purchased component parts used in our products. In the past, we have also experienced supply delays and limitations for component parts from time to time as a result of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, including material curtailments of new chassis deliveries due to shutdowns and production slowdowns at our suppliers’ facilities, and, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, as our production levels had substantially increased over the last several years prior to the start of the pandemic. If delays and other limitations for raw materials, purchased component parts, and chassis continue, recur or worsen, they may have a material adverse effect on our production at any of our facilities, and customers may reduce their purchase levels with us and/or seek alternative solutions to meet their demand.

Furthermore, as a result of our supply chain challenges, it has become more difficult to accurately forecast, purchase, warehouse and transport to our manufacturing facilities purchased materials, component parts and chassis at sufficient volumes. If we are unable to accurately match the timing and quantities of component purchases to our actual needs, or successfully manage our inventory or our workforce to adapt to the increased complexity in our supply chain, we may incur unexpected production disruption, as well as storage, transportation and labor costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

To partially offset price increases for raw materials and purchased component parts, we have, from time to time, implemented general price increases and cost surcharges. While we have in the past attempted to pass these increased costs on to our customers, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so in the future. Any further price increases for these or any other materials or purchased component parts that we use would require a long lead time to implement while the higher material costs would be felt much sooner.

Shortages, price increases or delays in shipments of our raw materials and purchased component parts, including truck chassis, could have a material adverse effect on our financial performance, competitive position and reputation.2021.
