In the opinion of the company, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments, consisting solely of adjustments of a normal, recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These statements should be read in conjunction with the company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data as of September 30, 2021 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all annual disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The results of operations for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

The company’s fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest September 30, and its fiscal quarters generally end on the Sundays nearest December 31, March 31 and June 30. The ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal years 2022 and 2021 ended on ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and ~~April~~July 4, 2021, respectively. Fiscal year 2021 ended on October 3, 2021. All year and quarter references relate to the company’s fiscal year and fiscal quarters, unless otherwise stated. For ease of presentation, September 30 and ~~March 31~~June 30 are used consistently throughout this report to represent the fiscal year end and ~~second~~third fiscal quarter end, respectively.

COVID-19 Pandemic Update

The COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected our financial performance during the beginning of fiscal year 2021, however the direct adverse impacts of the pandemic on our operations and financial performance started to dissipate over the course of the third fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2021. All of our facilities have been fully operational since the end of fiscal year 2020 and our salaried employees have returned to work on a hybrid in person basis consistent with local, regional and business requirements, in each case under enhanced safety guidelines. Although we are optimistic that the worst of the pandemic is behind us, the progression of the pandemic, and its direct and indirect impacts on our markets, operations and financial performance, have been unpredictable. As a result of this continued uncertainty, there may still be impacts on our industry, operations, workforce, supply chains, distribution systems and demand for our products in the future which cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

2. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. The diluted earnings per share calculation includes the impact of dilutive common stock options, restricted shares, restricted share units, performance share unit awards and convertible securities, if applicable.

MERITOR, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

A reconciliation of basic average common shares outstanding to diluted average common shares outstanding is as follows (in millions):


		Three Months Ended March 31,		Six Months Ended March 31,		Three Months Ended June 30,			Nine Months Ended June 30,
		2022	2021	2022	2021			2022	2021	2022	2021
Basic average common shares outstanding	Basic average common shares outstanding	70.7	72.4	70.4	72.3		Basic average common shares outstanding	70.7	72.0	70.5	72.2

In November 2021, the Board of Directors approved a grant of 0.4 million performance share units to all executives eligible to participate in the long-term incentive plan. Each performance share unit represents the right to receive 1 share of common stock or its cash equivalent upon achievement of certain performance and time vesting criteria. The fair value of each performance share unit was $25.65, which was the company’s share price on the grant date of December 1, 2021. The Board of Directors also approved a grant of 0.3 million restricted share units to these executives. The restricted share units vest at the earlier of three years from the date of grant or upon termination of employment with the company under certain circumstances. The fair value of each restricted share unit was $25.65, which was the company's share price on the grant date of December 1, 2021.

The actual number of performance share units that will vest depends upon the company’s performance relative to the established performance metrics for the three-year performance period of October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2024, measured at the end of the performance period. The number of performance share units that vest will depend on adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations which are each weighted at 50%. The number of performance share units that vest will be between 0% and 200% of the grant date amount of 0.4 million performance share units.

On December 1, 2020, in response to retention and attrition concerns resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the company’s incentive compensation plans, and to continue to incentivize executive performance in a difficult and uncertain environment, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors adjusted the threshold level of the performance metrics required to be achieved for payout for the fiscal 2019-2021 performance cycle. The target and maximum levels were not modified. The impact of this adjustment did not have a material impact on the company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. New Accounting Standards

Accounting standards implemented during fiscal year 2022

On October 1, 2021, the company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). As a result of adopting this ASU, entities are no longer required to separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature in such debt and instead should account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt. ASU 2020-06 also amended the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments.

~~MERITOR, INC.~~

~~NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~(Unaudited)~~

The company elected to adopt the ASU using the modified retrospective method. The cumulative effect of the changes following implementation on October 1, 2021 was as follows:


	Balance at September 30, 2021		Adjustments Upon Adoption of ASU 2020-06		Balance at October 1, 2021
Liabilities
Long-Term debt	$	1,008	$	23	$	1,031

Additional paid-in capital	$	798	$	(40)	$	758
Retained earnings	$	935	$	17	$	952

MERITOR, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The prior period consolidated financial statements have not been retrospectively adjusted and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for that period. Interest expense recognized in future periods will be reduced as a result of the derecognition of the unamortized debt discount on the 3.25 Percent Convertible Notes (see Note ~~13)~~14), which will no longer be amortized to interest expense. The reduction in interest expense will have a favorable impact on both basic and diluted earnings per share.

Revolving Credit Facility

The company has a $685 million senior secured revolving credit facility that matures in June 2024. The availability under the senior secured revolving credit facility is subject to a financial covenant based on the ratio of the company’s priority debt (consisting principally of amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility, the U.S. accounts receivable securitization and factoring programs, and third-party non-working capital foreign debt) to EBITDA. The company is required to maintain a total priority-debt-to-EBITDA ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, of 2.25 to 1.00 or less as of the last day of each fiscal quarter throughout the term of the agreement. Availability under the senior secured revolving credit facility was constrained to $646 million on the last day of the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 due primarily to an elevated priority debt balance. The company has full availability until the next measurement date at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022.

$572 million on the last day of the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 due primarily to a higher priority debt balance within the U.S. accounts receivable securitization and factoring programs. The higher priority debt balance at the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 was driven by an increase in working capital requirements, partially offset by higher earnings. The company has full availability until the next measurement date at the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2022.

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, there were no borrowings outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facility. The senior secured revolving credit facility includes $100 million of availability for the issuance of letters of credit.

Other

One of the company's consolidated joint ventures in China participates in a bills of exchange program to settle its obligations with its trade suppliers. These programs are common in China and generally require the participation of local banks. Under these programs, the company's joint venture issues notes payable through the participating banks to its trade suppliers. If the issued notes payable remain unpaid on their respective due dates, this could constitute an event of default under the company’s revolving credit facility if the defaulted amount exceeds $35 million per bank. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the company had ~~$24~~$21 million and $25 million, respectively, outstanding under this program at more than one bank.

Cash and cash equivalents — All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying value approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Short- and long-term debt — Fair values are based on transaction prices at public exchange for publicly traded debt. For debt instruments that are not publicly traded, fair values are based on interest rates that would be currently available to the company for issuance of similar types of debt instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Foreign exchange forward contracts — The company uses foreign exchange forward purchase and sale contracts with varying terms that extend through fiscal year 2025 to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the notional amount of the company's foreign exchange contracts outstanding under its foreign currency cash flow hedging program was ~~$68~~$43 million and $107 million, respectively. The fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts is based on a model which incorporates observable inputs including quoted spot rates, forward exchange rates and discounted future expected cash flows utilizing market interest rates with similar quality and maturity characteristics.

~~16.~~17. Contingencies

Environmental

Federal, state and local requirements relating to the discharge of substances into the environment, the disposal of hazardous wastes and other activities affecting the environment have, and will continue to have, an impact on the operations of the company. The process of estimating environmental liabilities is complex and dependent upon evolving physical and scientific data at the sites, uncertainties as to remedies and technologies to be used and the outcome of discussions with regulatory agencies. The company records liabilities for environmental issues in the accounting period in which they are considered to be probable and the cost can be reasonably estimated. At environmental sites in which more than one potentially responsible party has been identified, the company records a liability for its allocable share of costs related to its involvement with the site, as well as an allocable share of costs related to insolvent parties or unidentified shares. At environmental sites in which Meritor is the only potentially responsible party, the company records a liability for the total probable and estimable costs of remediation before consideration of recovery from insurers or other third parties.

~~MERITOR, INC.~~

~~NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~(Unaudited)~~

The company has been designated as a potentially responsible party at 10 Superfund sites, excluding sites as to which the company’s records disclose no involvement or as to which the company’s liability has been finally determined. Superfund is a United States federal government program designed to fund the cleanup of sites contaminated with hazardous substances and pollutants. Management estimates the total reasonably possible costs the company could incur for the remediation of ~~the~~the 10 Superfund sites at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 to be approximately ~~$21~~$20 million, of which $8$9 million is probable and recorded as a liability. Included in reasonably possible amounts are estimates for certain remediation actions that may be required if current actions are deemed inadequate by the regulators.

In addition to the Superfund sites, various other lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been asserted against the company, alleging violations of federal, state and local environmental protection requirements, or seeking remediation of alleged environmental impairments, principally at previously disposed-of properties. For these matters, management has estimated the

MERITOR, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

total reasonably possible costs the company could incur at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 to be approximately ~~$10~~ $9 million, of which $4$3 million is probable and recorded as a liability.

Included in the company’s environmental liabilities are costs for on-going operation, maintenance and monitoring at environmental sites in which remediation has been put into place. This liability is discounted using discount rates in the range of 0 to 2.00 percent and is approximately $13 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022. The undiscounted estimate of these costs is approximately ~~$13~~$14 million.

The following are the components of the Superfund and non-Superfund environmental reserves (in millions):


		Superfund Sites		Non-Superfund Sites		Total			Superfund Sites		Non-Superfund Sites		Total
Beginning Balance at September 30, 2021	Beginning Balance at September 30, 2021	$	9	$	4	$	13	Beginning Balance at September 30, 2021	$	9	$	4	$	13

Environmental reserves are included in Other Current Liabilities (see Note ~~11)~~12) and Other Liabilities (see Note ~~12)~~13) in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The actual amount of costs or damages for which the company may be held responsible could materially exceed the foregoing estimates because of uncertainties, including the financial condition of other potentially responsible parties, the success of the remediation, discovery of new contamination and other factors that make it difficult to predict actual costs accurately. However, based on management’s assessment, after consulting with outside advisors that specialize in environmental matters, and subject to the difficulties inherent in estimating these future costs, the company believes that its expenditures for environmental capital investment and remediation necessary to comply with present regulations governing environmental protection and other expenditures for the resolution of environmental claims will not have a material effect on the company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, in future periods, new laws and regulations, changes in remediation plans, advances in technology and additional information about the ultimate clean-up remedies could significantly change the company’s estimates. Management cannot assess the possible effect of compliance with future requirements.

Asbestos

Rockwell International Corporation ("Rockwell") — ArvinMeritor, Inc. ("AM"), a predecessor of Meritor, along with many other companies, has been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos used in certain components of Rockwell products many years ago. Liability for these claims was transferred at the time of the spin-off of the automotive business from Rockwell in 1997. There were approximately 600 pending active asbestos claims in lawsuits that name AM, together with many other companies, as defendants as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021. In March 2021, AM entered into a tolling agreement with an asbestos plaintiff's law firm. Under the terms of this agreement, AM agreed to toll the statute of limitations from expiring on asbestos claims in exchange for the plaintiff's law firm agreeing not to raise a claim until there is product identification linking AM. The plaintiff's law firm also agreed to dismiss pending active claims for which product identification was not yet determined. There were approximately 600 claims dismissed as a result of this tolling agreement in the third fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2021. According to the terms of the tolling agreement, if the plaintiff's law firm subsequently links AM's product to the plaintiff, they will refile a claim against AM.

~~MERITOR, INC.~~

~~NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~(Unaudited)~~

A significant portion of the claims do not identify any Rockwell products or specify which of the claimants, if any, were exposed to asbestos attributable to Rockwell products, and past experience has shown that the vast majority of the claimants will likely never identify any Rockwell products. Historically, AM has been dismissed from the vast majority of similar claims filed in the past with no payment to claimants. For those claimants who do show that they worked with Rockwell products, management nevertheless believes it has meritorious defenses, in substantial part due to the integrity of the products involved and the lack of any impairing medical condition on the part of many claimants.

Pending and Future Claims: The company engaged a third-party advisor with extensive experience in assessing asbestos-related liabilities to conduct a study to estimate its potential undiscounted liability for pending and future asbestos-related claims as of September 30, 2021. Management continuously monitors the underlying claims data and experience for the purpose of assessing the appropriateness of the assumptions used to estimate the liability.

As of September 30, 2021, the best estimate of the company's obligation for asbestos-related claims over the next 37 years was $60 million. The company recognized a liability for pending and future claims over the next 37 years of ~~$57~~$55 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022. The ultimate cost of resolving pending and future claims is estimated based on the history of claims and expenses for plaintiffs represented by law firms in jurisdictions with an established history with Rockwell.

Recoveries: AM has insurance coverage that management believes covers indemnity and defense costs, over and above self-insurance retentions, for a significant portion of these claims. The company recognizes insurance recoveries when the claim for recovery is deemed probable and to the extent an insurable loss has been recognized in the financial statements. The company’s determination is based on analysis of the underlying insurance policies, historical experience with insurers, ongoing review of the solvency of insurers, and consideration of any insurance settlements. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the company entered into a legally binding term sheet with an insurer for a $6 million lump-sum settlement to resolve coverage relating to Rockwell asbestos claims. A settlement agreement, fully documenting the binding term sheet signed in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, was executed in the second quarter of fiscal 2022. The insurance receivables for Rockwell asbestos-related liabilities totaled ~~$48~~$48 million and $51 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.

The amounts recorded for the asbestos-related reserves and recoveries from insurance companies are based upon assumptions and estimates derived from currently known facts. All such estimates of liabilities and recoveries for asbestos-related claims are subject to considerable uncertainty because such liabilities and recoveries are influenced by variables that are difficult to predict. The future litigation environment for Rockwell could change significantly from its past experience, due, for example, to changes in the mix of claims filed against Rockwell in terms of plaintiffs’ law firm, jurisdiction and disease; legislative or regulatory developments; the company’s approach to defending claims; or payments to plaintiffs from other defendants. Estimated recoveries are influenced by coverage issues among insurers and the continuing solvency of various insurance companies. If the assumptions with respect to the estimation period, the nature of pending claims, the cost to resolve claims and the amount of available insurance prove to be incorrect, the actual amount of liability for Rockwell asbestos-related claims, and the effect on the company, could differ materially from current estimates and, therefore, could have a material impact on the company’s financial condition and results of operations. However, the amount of reasonably possible and estimable losses in excess of the recorded asbestos-related liabilities was determined to be immaterial.

Indemnification

The company has provided indemnities in conjunction with certain transactions, primarily divestitures. These indemnities address a variety of matters, which may include environmental, tax, asbestos, labor and employment-related matters, and the periods of indemnification vary in duration.

The company is not aware of any claims or other information that would give rise to material payments under such indemnification obligations.

Other

In addition, various lawsuits, claims and proceedings, other than those specifically disclosed in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, have been or may be instituted or asserted against the company, relating to the conduct of the company’s business, including those pertaining to product liability, warranty or recall claims, intellectual property, safety and health, contract and employment matters. Although the outcome of other litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and some lawsuits, claims or proceedings may be disposed of unfavorably to the company, management believes the disposition of

matters that are pending will not have a material effect on the company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

~~17.~~18. Shareholders' Equity

There were no dividends declared or paid in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal years 2022 and 2021. The payment of cash dividends and the amount of any dividend are subject to review and change at the discretion of the company's Board of Directors.

Repurchases can be made from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, subject to compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and the company’s debt covenants.

The increase in sales was primarily driven by higher truck production in most global markets and pricing actions.

Net income attributable to Meritor and net income from continuing operations attributable to Meritor were ~~$62~~each $73 million ~~and $61 million, respectively,~~ for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2022 compared to ~~$63~~$42 million for each in the same period in the prior fiscal year. ~~Flat~~Higher net income year over year was driven by higher sales volumes and pricing actions, ~~and lower tax expense,~~ partially offset by increased ~~steel~~freight and ~~freight costs, and the recognition of value-added tax credits in Brazil during the second quarter of fiscal year 2021.~~material costs.

Adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to the company and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations are defined as reported income (loss) from continuing operations and reported diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations before restructuring expenses, asset impairment charges and other special items as determined by management. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-controlling interests in consolidated joint ventures, loss on sale of receivables, restructuring expenses, asset impairment charges and other special items as determined by management. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by consolidated sales from continuing operations. Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, noncontrolling interests in consolidated joint ventures, loss on sale of receivables, restructuring expense, asset impairment charges and other special items as determined by management. Segment adjusted EBITDA excludes unallocated legacy and corporate expense (income), net. Segment adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as segment adjusted EBITDA divided by consolidated sales from continuing operations, either in the aggregate or by segment as applicable. Free cash flow is defined as cash flows provided by (used for) operating activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow conversion is defined as free cash flow over adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to the company. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, the company no longer includes an adjustment for non-cash tax expense related to the use of deferred tax assets in jurisdictions with net operating loss carryforwards or tax credits in adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to the company and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations.

MERITOR, INC.

Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to both management and investors in their analysis of the company's financial position and results of operations. In particular, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, segment adjusted EBITDA, segment adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to the company, adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations and free cash flow conversion are meaningful measures of performance to investors as they are commonly utilized to analyze financial performance in our industry, perform analytical comparisons, measure value creation, benchmark performance between periods and measure our performance against externally communicated targets.

Free cash flow is used by investors and management to analyze our ability to service and repay debt and return value directly to shareholders. Free cash flow conversion is a specific financial measure of our M2022 plan used to measure the company's ability to convert earnings to free cash flow and provides useful information about our ability to achieve strategic goals.

Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP financial measures for planning and forecasting purposes, and segment adjusted EBITDA is also used as the primary basis for the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") to evaluate the performance of each of our reportable segments.

Our Board of Directors uses adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow, adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations and free cash flow conversion as key metrics to determine management’s performance under our performance-based compensation plans, provided that, solely for this purpose, adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations also includes an adjustment for the use of deferred tax assets in jurisdictions with net operating loss carryforwards or tax credits.

Adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to the company, adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, segment adjusted EBITDA, segment adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow conversion should not be considered a substitute for the reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow conversion calculations as an indicator of our financial performance. Free cash flow and free cash flow conversion should not be considered a substitute for cash provided by (used for) operating activities, or other cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of financial position or liquidity. In addition, these non-GAAP cash flow measures do not reflect cash used to repay debt or cash received from the divestitures of businesses or sales of other assets and thus do not reflect funds available for investment or other discretionary uses. These non-GAAP financial measures, as determined and presented by the company, may not be comparable to related or similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Set forth below are reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Overview – Our principal operating and capital requirements are for working capital needs, capital expenditure requirements, debt service requirements, funding of retiree medical costs and restructuring and product development programs. We expect fiscal year 2022 capital expenditures for our business segments to be approximately $100 million - ~~$120~~$110 million.

We generally fund our operating and capital needs with cash on hand, cash flows from operations, our various accounts receivable securitization and factoring arrangements and availability under our revolving credit facility. Cash in excess of local operating needs is generally used to reduce amounts outstanding, if any, under our revolving credit facility or U.S. accounts receivable securitization program. Our ability to access additional capital in the long term will depend on availability of capital markets and pricing on commercially reasonable terms, as well as our credit profile at the time we are seeking funds. We continuously evaluate our capital structure to ensure the most appropriate and optimal structure and may, from time to time, retire, repurchase, exchange or redeem outstanding indebtedness or common equity, issue new equity or debt securities or enter into new lending arrangements if conditions warrant.

We believe our current financing arrangements provide us with the financial flexibility required to maintain our operations during the uncertain times of the COVID-19 pandemic and fund future growth, including actions required to improve our market share and further diversify our global operations, through the term of our revolving credit facility, which matures in June 2024.

(3)Actual amounts may exceed the bank's commitment at the bank's discretion.

(4)The facility is backed by a 364-day liquidity commitment from Nordea Bank through June 22, ~~2022.~~2023.

(5)On March 23, 2022, the company's U.K. factoring facility was amended to enable the factoring of Pound Sterling denominated accounts receivable in addition to Euro denominated accounts receivable.

(6)There is no explicit facility size under the agreement, but the counterparty approves the purchase of receivable tranches at its discretion.

Cash and Liquidity Needs – At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we had ~~$115~~$105 million in cash and cash equivalents. We plan to repatriate approximately ~~$40~~$20 million of cash held by subsidiaries outside of the United States, with respect to which no withholding taxes are expected to be owed. ~~$48~~$57 million of cash and cash equivalents is held in jurisdictions where the cash is not freely transferable to the U.S. without intervention by the foreign jurisdiction or minority joint venture partner. We plan to utilize ongoing cash flow from domestic operations and external borrowings, to meet our liquidity needs in the U.S.

Our availability under the senior secured revolving credit facility is subject to a priority debt-to-EBITDA ratio covenant, as defined in the credit agreement, which may limit our borrowings under such agreement as of each quarter end. As long as we are in compliance with this covenant as of the quarter end, we have full availability under the senior secured revolving credit facility every other day during the quarter. Our future liquidity is subject to a number of factors, including access to adequate funding under our senior secured revolving credit facility, access to other borrowing arrangements such as factoring or securitization facilities, vehicle production schedules and customer demand. Even taking into account these and other factors, management expects to have sufficient liquidity to fund our operating requirements through the term of our senior secured revolving credit facility. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the priority debt-to-EBITDA ratio covenant with a ratio of approximately ~~0.81x.~~0.53x.

Common Stock and Debt Repurchase Authorization – On July 28, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $250 million of the company's common stock. Repurchases can be made from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, subject to compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and the company’s debt covenants. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the amount remaining available for repurchases was $250 million under this common stock repurchase authorization. On February 21, 2022, the company suspended activity under its share repurchase program due to the Merger Agreement.

On November 7, 2019, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $325 million of the company's common stock. Repurchases could be made from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, subject to compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and the company’s debt covenants. During fiscal year 2021, the company repurchased 2.5 million shares of common stock for $59 million (including commission costs) pursuant to this authorization. No amounts remained outstanding under this common stock repurchase authorization as of September 30, 2021.

Revolving Credit Facility – The senior secured revolving credit facility is discussed in Note 1314 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I of this Quarterly Report.

Other – Refer to Note 1314 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I of this Quarterly Report.

Credit Ratings – At ~~May 2,~~August 1, 2022, our Standard & Poor’s corporate credit rating and senior unsecured credit rating were BB and BB-, respectively, and our Moody’s Investors Service corporate credit rating and senior unsecured credit rating were Ba3 and B1, respectively. Any lowering of our credit ratings could increase our cost of future borrowings and could reduce our access to capital markets and result in lower trading prices for our securities.

Subsidiary Guarantees of Debt – Certain of the company's 100% owned subsidiaries, as defined in the credit agreement for the senior secured revolving credit facility (collectively, the "Guarantors") irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee amounts outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facility on a joint and several basis. Similar subsidiary guarantees are provided for the benefit of the holders of the notes outstanding under the company's indentures. The notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the company’s subsidiaries from time to time guaranteeing its senior secured revolving credit facility, as it may be amended, extended, replaced or refinanced, or any subsequent credit facility. The guarantees remain in effect until the earlier to occur of payment in full of the notes or termination or release of the applicable corresponding guarantee under the company’s senior secured revolving credit facility, as it may be amended, extended, replaced or refinanced, or any subsequent credit facility. The guarantees rank equally with existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness of the Guarantors and are effectively subordinated to all of the existing and future secured indebtedness of the Guarantors, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.

The following represents summarized financial information, in millions, of Meritor, Inc. ("Parent") and the Guarantors (collectively, "the Combined Entities"). The information has been prepared on a combined basis and excludes any investments of the Parent or Guarantors in non-guarantor subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and amounts between the Combined Entities have been eliminated. Equity income from continuing operations of subsidiaries has been eliminated.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Accounts Receivable Factoring Arrangements – We participate in accounts receivable factoring programs with a total amount utilized at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 of ~~$250~~$281 million, of which ~~$207~~$226 million was attributable to committed factoring facilities involving the sale of AB Volvo accounts receivables. The remaining amount of ~~$43~~$55 million was related to factoring by certain of our European subsidiaries under uncommitted factoring facilities with financial institutions. The receivables under all of these programs are sold at face value and are excluded from the consolidated balance sheet. Total facility size, utilized amounts, readily available amounts and expiration dates for each of these programs are shown in the table above under Liquidity.

The Swedish facility is backed by a 364-day liquidity commitment from Nordea Bank, which was renewed through June 22, ~~2022.~~2023. Commitments under all of our factoring facilities are subject to standard terms and conditions for these types of arrangements (including, in the case of the U.K. and Italy commitments, a sole discretion clause whereby the bank retains the right to not purchase receivables, which has not been invoked since the inception of the respective programs).

Letter of Credit Facilities – There were $10 million and $11 million of off-balance sheet letters of credit outstanding through letter of credit facilities as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and September 30, ~~2021.~~2021, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are consistent with those described in Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 (the "2021 Form 10-K"). Our critical accounting estimates are consistent with those described in Item 7 of our 2021 Form 10-K.

New Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Pronouncements are discussed in Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I of this Quarterly Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to certain global market risks, including foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate risk associated with our debt.

As a result of our substantial international operations, we are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from our normal business operations, including in connection with our transactions that are denominated in foreign currencies. In addition, we translate sales and financial results denominated in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars for purposes of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. As a result, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against these foreign currencies generally will have a negative impact on our reported revenues and operating income while depreciation of the U.S. dollar against these foreign currencies will generally have a positive effect on reported revenues and operating income.

We use foreign currency forward contracts to minimize the earnings exposures arising from foreign currency exchange risk on foreign currency purchases and sales. Gains and losses on the underlying foreign currency exposures are partially offset with gains and losses on the foreign currency forward contracts. Under this cash flow hedging program, we designate the foreign

4342

MERITOR, INC.

currency contracts as cash flow hedges of underlying foreign currency forecasted purchases and sales. Changes in the fair value of these contracts are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Equity and are recognized in operating income when the underlying forecasted transaction impacts earnings. These contracts have varying terms that extend through fiscal year 2025.

We use option contracts to mitigate foreign exchange exposure on expected future foreign currency-denominated purchases. We did not elect hedge accounting for these derivatives. Changes in fair value associated with these contracts are recorded in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

We use option contracts to mitigate the risk of volatility in the translation of foreign currency earnings to U.S. dollars. These option contracts did not qualify for a hedge accounting election. Changes in fair value associated with these contracts are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in other income, net.

Interest rate risk relates to the gain/increase or loss/decrease we could incur in our debt balances and interest expense associated with changes in interest rates. To manage this risk, we enter into interest rate swaps from time to time to economically convert portions of our fixed-rate debt into floating rate exposure, ensuring that the sensitivity of the economic value of debt falls within our corporate risk tolerances. It is our policy not to enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes, and therefore, we hold no derivative instruments for trading purposes.

Included below is a sensitivity analysis to measure the potential gain (loss) in the fair value of financial instruments with exposure to market risk (in millions). The model assumes a 10% hypothetical change (increase or decrease) in exchange rates and instantaneous, parallel shifts of 50 basis points in interest rates.

Market Risk


		Assuming a 10% Increase in Rates		Assuming a 10% Decrease in Rates		Change In		Assuming a 10% Increase in Rates		Assuming a 10% Decrease in Rates		Change In

(1) Includes only the risk related to the derivative instruments and does not include the risk related to the underlying exposure. The analysis assumes overall derivative instruments and debt levels remain unchanged for each hypothetical scenario.

(2)At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, the fair value of outstanding foreign currency denominated debt was ~~$10.9~~$11.9 million. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, a 10% decrease in quoted currency exchange rates would result in a decrease of ~~$1.1~~$1.2 million in foreign currency denominated debt, and a 10% increase in quoted currency exchange rates would result in an increase of ~~$1.1~~$1.2 million in foreign currency denominated debt.

(3)At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, the fair value of outstanding debt was ~~$1,197~~$1,090 million. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, a 50 basis points decrease in quoted interest rates would result in an increase of ~~$35.5~~$34.3 million in the fair value of fixed rate debt, and a 50 basis points increase in quoted interest rates would result in a decrease of ~~$33.5~~$32.4 million in the fair value of fixed rate debt.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed

~~MERITOR, INC.~~

by us in the reports we file or submit is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

MERITOR, INC.

There have been no changes in the company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over financial reporting.

In connection with the rule, the company continues to review and document its disclosure controls and procedures, including the company’s internal control over financial reporting, and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and ensuring that the company’s systems evolve with the business.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Except as set forth in Note 1617 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material developments in legal proceedings involving the company or its subsidiaries since those reported in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

~~Other than as noted below, there~~There have been no material changes in risk factors involving the company or its subsidiaries from those previously disclosed in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, ~~2021.~~2021 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022.

~~Risks Related to Proposed Acquisition by Cummins~~

~~The Merger is subject to the satisfaction of closing conditions in the Merger Agreement.~~

There can be no assurance that the Merger will occur. The Merger Agreement contains a number of customary conditions to complete the Merger, including, (i) the approval of the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast to approve the Merger Agreement (the "Company Shareholder Approval"), (ii) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, which expired on April 6, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, (iii) the receipt of specified regulatory approvals, (iv) the absence of an enacted law, injunction or order prohibiting the Merger, (v) the accuracy of the representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement (generally subject to a material adverse effect qualification), (vi) compliance in all material respects with the covenants and agreements in the Merger Agreement, (vii) absence of an effect or effects that have had a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) that is continuing or that would reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect within a reasonable period following the closing of the Merger and (viii) the absence of an enacted law, injunction or order in connection with specified regulatory approvals that would require Cummins, the company or any of their respective subsidiaries to take or commit to take an action that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to result in a Burdensome Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement). We can provide no assurance that all required approvals will be obtained or that all closing conditions will be satisfied, and, if all required approvals are obtained and the closing conditions are satisfied, we can provide no assurance as to the terms, conditions and timing of such approvals or the timing of the completion of the Merger. Any delay in completing the Merger could cause us not to realize some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve if the Merger is successfully completed within its expected timeframe.

~~Failure to complete the Merger could materially adversely affect our business operations, financial results and stock price.~~

If the Merger is not completed, our stockholders will not receive any payment for their shares in connection with the Merger. Instead, Meritor will remain an independent public company, and the shares will continue to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange. Our ongoing business may be materially adversely affected, and we would be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

•We may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including negative impacts on our stock price, and it is uncertain when, if ever, the price of the shares would return to the prices at which the shares currently trade;

•~~We may experience negative publicity, which could have an adverse effect on our ongoing operations including, but not limited to, retaining and attracting employees, customers and suppliers;~~

•We will still be required to pay certain significant costs relating to the Merger, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor, printing and other professional services fees, which may relate to activities that we would not have undertaken other than to complete the Merger;

•~~We may be required to pay a cash termination fee as required under the Merger Agreement;~~

•The Merger Agreement places certain restrictions on the conduct of our business, which may have delayed or prevented us from undertaking business opportunities that, absent the Merger Agreement, we may have pursued;

•Matters relating to the Merger require substantial commitments of time and resources by our management, which could result in the distraction of management from ongoing business operations and refraining from pursuing other opportunities that could have been beneficial to us; and

~~MERITOR, INC.~~

•We have and may continue to incur additional costs in connection with the defense or settlement of shareholder litigation in connection with the Merger, which may adversely affect our ability to complete the Merger.

If the Merger is not consummated, the risks described above may materialize and they may have a material adverse effect on our business operations, financial results and stock price, especially to the extent that the current market price of our common stock reflects an assumption that the Merger will be completed.

~~We will be subject to various uncertainties while the Merger is pending that may cause disruption and may make it more difficult to maintain relationships with employees, customers and suppliers.~~

Uncertainty about the effect of the Merger on employees, customers and suppliers may have an adverse effect on us. These uncertainties may impair our ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the Merger is completed, and could cause customers, suppliers and others that deal with us to attempt to change existing business relationships with us. Retention and motivation of certain employees may be challenging while the Merger is pending, as certain employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles. If key employees depart, our business could be harmed. In addition, there could be distractions to or disruptions for our employees and management associated with obtaining the required approvals to close the Merger. Our customers and suppliers may experience uncertainty with the Merger, including with respect to current or future business relationships following the Merger. Our business relationships may be subject to disruption as customers, suppliers and others may attempt to negotiate changes in existing business relationships or consider entering into business relationships with parties other than with us. These disruptions could have an adverse effect on our business operations and financial results. The risks, and adverse effects, of such disruptions could be exacerbated by a delay in completion of the Merger or termination of the Merger Agreement.

~~We are subject to certain restrictions in the Merger Agreement that may hinder operations pending the consummation of the Merger.~~

Whether or not the Merger is completed, the pending Merger may disrupt our current plans and operations, which could have an adverse effect on our business operations and financial results. The Merger Agreement generally requires us to use commercially reasonable efforts to operate our business in all material respects in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice pending completion of the Merger and not to engage in specified types of actions during this period, in each case subject to certain exceptions. These restrictions could be in place for an extended period of time if the consummation of the Merger is delayed, which may delay or prevent us from undertaking business opportunities that, absent the Merger Agreement, we might have pursued, or effectively respond to competitive pressures or industry developments. For these and other reasons, the pendency of the Merger could adversely affect our business operations and financial results.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated, we may, under certain circumstances, be obligated to pay a termination fee to Cummins. These costs could require us to use cash that would have otherwise been available for other uses.

If the Merger is not completed, in certain circumstances, we could be required to pay a termination fee of $73.5 million to Cummins. If the Merger Agreement is terminated, the termination fee we may be required to pay, if any, under the Merger Agreement may require us to use available cash that would have otherwise been available for general corporate purposes or other uses. The payment of a termination fee may also have an adverse impact on our financial condition and could affect the structure, pricing and terms proposed by a third party seeking to acquire or merge with us or deter such third party from making a competing acquisition proposal. Further, a failed transaction may result in negative publicity and a negative impression of us in the investment community. For these and other reasons, termination of the Merger Agreement could materially adversely affect our business operations and financial results, which in turn would materially and adversely affect the price of our common stock.

~~Industry and Operational Risks~~

~~The conflict between Russia and Ukraine could negatively impact us.~~

In the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, Russia and Ukraine were engaged in ongoing military conflict which is expected to lead to disruption, instability and volatility in global markets. While destination sales to Russia and Ukraine represented less than 1% of our total revenues in fiscal year 2021 and the impact to our business was minimal in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, we cannot reasonably predict the full extent to which the conflict between Russia and Ukraine may impact the company’s customers, operations and supply chain going forward given the uncertainty around the duration of this conflict and whether it will spread to other countries. The U.S. government and other governments in jurisdictions in which we operate have imposed severe sanctions and export controls against Russia and Russian interests. The impact of these measures, as well as potential responses to them by Russia (for example, potential cyberattacks and the disruption of energy flows), is currently unknown and could adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

~~MERITOR, INC.~~

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

Issuer repurchases

The independent trustee of our 401(k) plans purchases shares in the open market to fund investments by employees in our common stock, one of the investment options available under such plans, and any matching contributions in company stock we provide under certain of such plans. In addition, our stock incentive plans permit payment of an option exercise price by means of cashless exercise through a broker and permit the satisfaction of the minimum statutory tax obligations upon exercise of options and the vesting of restricted stock units through stock withholding. There were no shares withheld in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2022 to satisfy tax obligations for exercise of options. In addition, our stock incentive plans also permit the satisfaction of tax obligations upon the vesting of restricted stock through stock withholding. There were no shares withheld in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2022 to satisfy tax obligations upon the vesting of restricted shares. The company does not believe such purchases or transactions described above are issuer repurchases for the purposes of this Item 2 of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
