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.

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, 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. For both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, contract liability balances were $242, and are included in accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. No revenue related to contract liability balances was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023, or during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The Company did not have any contract assets at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

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 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 de minimis during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and during the three months ended March 31, 2022.  

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 one customer made up approximately 11% of total Company sales during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Sales from one customer made up approximately 10% of total Company sales during the three months ended March 31, 2022. There were no customers with accounts receivable greater than 10% of total accounts receivable at March 31, 2023.  Accounts receivable from one customer made up approximately 10% of total Company trade accounts receivable at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

4.LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company periodically reviews the carrying amount of its long-lived assets to determine if those assets may be recoverable based upon the future operating cash flows expected to be generated by those assets. Management believes that its long-lived assets are appropriately valued.

6

5.GOODWILL

Goodwill consists of the excess of cost of acquired entities over the sum of the amounts assigned to identifiable assets acquired less liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized. However, the Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill for impairment at least annually or if an event or circumstance occurs that would indicate that the carrying amount had been impaired. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment utilizing a qualitative assessment or a two-step process. If we choose to perform a qualitative analysis of goodwill and determine that the fair value more likely than not exceeds the carrying value, no further testing is needed. If we choose the two-step approach or if qualitative analysis determines the carrying value more likely than not exceeds fair value, the first step identifies potential impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value the second step is not necessary. If the carrying value is more than the fair value, the second step of testing is performed to compare the fair value of the goodwill with its carrying value. An impairment loss would be recognized to the extent that the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds its fair value.

Credit Facility and Other Long-Term Obligations

Credit Facility

On April 6, 2010 we entered into a Loan AgreementThe Company’s current loan agreement with First TennesseeHorizon Bank, National Association for a $20,000 unsecured revolving credit facility. On December 21, 2011, ourwhich governs its existing $100.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility was increased to $25,000. On June 11, 2015, the credit facility was further renewed to extend thewith a maturity date to March 31, 2018 and our unsecured revolving credit facility was increased to $30,000. On June 22, 2016, the credit facility was further increased to $50,000 to give the Company greater flexibility to finance current capital expenditure projects. On April 5, 2017, the credit facility was further renewed to extend the maturity date toof May 31, 2019. The current credit facility2027, contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, and financial, affirmative and negative covenants for loan agreements of this kind.  Covenants under the currentThe credit facility restrictrestricts the payment of cash dividends if the payment would cause the Company wouldto be in violation of the minimum tangible net worth test or the leverage ratio test in the current loan agreement, as a result of the dividend, among various restrictions.

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 2027.  Certain of the credit facility.

Interest Rate Risk

Changes in interest rates affectlease agreements contain renewal options.  For those leases that have renewal options, 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 was equal to the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus 1.50% per annum (for a rate of interest of 2.73% at September 30, 2017). At the borrowing level under the credit facility at September 30, 2017, a one percent changeCompany 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 rate on our variable-rate debt would notexpense from the lease obligation. Short-term leases have a material impactlease term of twelve months or less.  The Company recognizes short-term leases on our financial position, resultsa 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 operations orproperty, plant and equipment, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

8.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

Contingencies

The Company has entered into arrangements with third-party lenders where it has agreed, in the event of default by a customer,distributor within the independent distributor network, to repurchase from the third-party lender 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 $50,932$88,619 at September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, and $45,196$74,122 at December 31, 2016. However, the2022. The increase during 2023 is due to increases in sales and supply chain issues that delay payment until all parts and components are received. 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 liabilitycommitment under these arrangements and concluded that the liabilitythere is no probable loss associated with these potential repurchase obligations is not material and not probablethus no associated liability was recognized at September 30, 2017.March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

At September 30, 2017, the Company had commitments of approximately $14,600 for construction and acquisition of property, plant and equipment. The Company is finalizing the consolidation and expansion of its Pennsylvania manufacturing operations to increase capacity and improve operating efficiencies. The plan includes consolidating primary manufacturing operations at one location. The current estimated costs of this project are approximately $24,700, including machinery and equipment, buildings and improvements and land. Approximately $23,700 of these costs were incurred as of September 30, 2017 and are included in property, plant and equipment, net on the consolidated balance sheets. The remainder of these costs are expected to be incurred during the fourth quarter of 2017. The timing and costs of the project are subject to change. We do not anticipate any employee severance costs or any material relocation expense associated with the consolidation since the two existing facilities are very close to each other. In June 2017, the Company sold the remaining plant location and realized a net gain of $601. A portion of the sold facility was leased from the buyer through November 2017 while production of certain equipment and storage of raw materials is relocated to the other Pennsylvania and Tennessee locations.

The Company also began several capital projects during 2016 involving machinery and equipment and building improvements at its Ooltewah, Tennessee and Greeneville, Tennessee facilities that it currently estimates will cost in total approximately $21,100. Approximately $19,400 of these costs were incurred as of September 30, 2017 and are included in property, plant and equipment, net on the consolidated balance sheets. The remainder of these costs are expected to be incurred during the fourth quarter of 2017. In addition, the Company began construction on an administrative building at its Ooltewah, Tennessee facility in June 2017. The current estimated costs of this project are approximately $4,200. Approximately $700 of these costs were incurred as of September 30, 2017, and the remaining costs are expected to be incurred by March 2018. The timing and cost of these projects are subject to change.

Contingencies

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 thesesuch matters could be resolved unfavorably to the Company, which could result in substantial damages against the Company. The Company has establishedestablishes 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 theseany 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.

8.          INCOME TAXES

In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended the Income Taxes topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The amendments will be effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company has elected to early adopt this standard on a retrospective basis. The effect of this adoption was to present the Company’s deferred income tax accounts as a long-term deferred income tax liability on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and a long-term deferred income tax asset on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2015.

As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, the Company had no federal or state net operating loss carryforwards. State net operating loss carryforwards were $1,135 at March 31, 2023.

9.CORRECTION OF PRIOR PERIOD ERRORS

As previously disclosed in Note 11 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2017and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $1,157 of unrecognized tax benefits recorded as liabilities, and we are uncertain about if or when such amounts may be settled. Related to the unrecognized tax benefits,identified prior period accounting errors that the Company has also recorded a liability for potential penalties of $259concluded are not material to the Company’s previously reported consolidated financial statements and interest of $20.unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company is subject to United States federal income taxes, as well as income taxes in various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s tax years 2015 and later tax years remain open to examination for U.S. federal income taxes. With few exceptions,During the prior fiscal year-end financial reporting process, the Company is no longer subjectidentified prior period accounting errors that the Company concluded were not material to statethe Company’s previously reported consolidated financial statements and unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.  The financial reporting periods affected by these errors include the Company’s previously reported consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021, and the Company’s previously reported unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial information for each of the quarterly and fiscal year-to-date periods in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (collectively the “previously reported financial statements”).

Based on management’s evaluation of the accounting errors under the SEC Staff’s Accounting Bulletins Nos. 99 (“SAB 99”) and 108 (“SAB 208”) and interpretations thereof, the Company concluded the errors were not material, on an individual or non-U.S. income tax examinations prioraggregate basis, to 2013.the Company’s previously reported financial statements. The errors originated many years ago, were less than 3.6% of the impacted accounts, and did not materially impact ratios or amounts relied upon by users of the financial statements. However, the Company further concluded the accounting errors could not be corrected as an out-of-period adjustment in the Company’s current period consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, because to do so would cause a material misstatement in those financial statements.  Accordingly, the Company proceeded according to the guidance prescribed by SAB 108 which specifies that the errors must be corrected the next time the previously reported financial statements are filed. Therefore, the Company corrected these accounting errors in all of the Company’s previously reported annual and interim consolidated financial statements impacted by the errors, which includes the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

15.RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Recently Issued Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance to change the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount equal to the consideration the entity receives or expects to receive. In addition, during 2016 the FASB issued additional guidance to clarify certain implementation guidance previously issued and to rescind certain SEC guidance effective upon an entity’s adoption of the new standard. The guidance will be effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company expects to use the modified retrospective approach to implement the standard. The Company has substantially completed its evaluation of revenue streams and the review of its current accounting policies and practices to identify potential differences that would result from applying the requirements of the new standard to the Company’s revenue recognition policy. In addition, the Company is in the process of implementing appropriate changes to business processes, information technology systems and internal controls to support recognition and disclosure under the new standard. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new revenue standard to have a material impact on the amount and timing of revenue recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The FASB's new leases standard Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) was issued on February 25, 2016 and is intended to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions. The standard affects all companies and other organizations that lease assets such as real estate, airplanes, and manufacturing equipment. The standard will require organizations that lease assets referred to as “Lessees” to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. An organization is to provide disclosures designed to enable users of financial statements to understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements concerning additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current GAAP which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet the new standard will require both types of leases (i.e. operating and capital) to be recognized on the balance sheet. The FASB lessee accounting model will continue to account for both types of leases. The capital lease will be accounted for in substantially the same manner as capital leases are accounted for under existing GAAP. The operating lease will be accounted for in a manner similar to operating leases under existing GAAP, except that lessees will recognize a lease liability and a lease asset for all of those leases.

The standard will be effective for financial statements issued for annual periods, and interim periods within these annual periods, beginning December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. See Note 6 for the Company’s current lease commitments. The Company plans to use the modified retrospective approach to implement the standard and is currently evaluating the effect that implementation will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In May 2017, the FASB amended the requirements in the Compensation—Stock Compensation Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) related to changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. The amendments will be effective for the Company for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment". The standard eliminates the second step in the goodwill impairment test which requires an entity to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. Instead, an entity should recognize an impairment loss if the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, with the impairment loss not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests conducted in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting." ASU 2017-09 amends the requirements in GAAP related to accounting for changes to stock compensation awards. The guidance in ASU 2017-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Recently Adopted Standards

In November 2015, the FASB amended the Income Taxes topic of the ASC to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The amendments will be effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company has elected to early adopt this standard on a retrospective basis. The effect of this adoption was to present the Company’s deferred income tax accounts as a long-term deferred income tax liability on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and a long-term deferred income tax asset on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2015.

In July 2015, the FASB issued amendments to the Inventory topic of the ASC to require inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Other than the change in the subsequent measurement guidance from the lower of cost or market to the lower of cost and net realizable value for inventory, there are no other substantive changes to the guidance on measurement of inventory. The amendments will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted these amendments in the first quarter of 2017 and it did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions including the income tax consequences, the classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and the classification on the statement of cash flows. Additionally, the guidance simplifies two areas specific to entities other than public business entities allowing them apply a practical expedient to estimate the expected term for all awards with performance or service conditions that have certain characteristics and also allowing them to make a one-time election to switch from measuring all liability-classified awards at fair value to measuring them at intrinsic value. The amendments will be effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted these amendments in the first quarter of 2017 and it did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2.

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

Executive OverviewThe 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 included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited financial statements and other information presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2022.  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.

Company Background

Miller Industries, Inc. is The World’s Largest Manufacturer of Vehicle 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 2 – “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 throughto 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).

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. We opened a 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.  In addition, our recent domestic plant expansion and modernization projects have installed sophisticated robotics and implemented other advanced technologies to increase our production capacity and optimize our manufacturing processes.  These projects were completed during the period from 2017 to 2021 at a cost of over $82,000.  We completed phase one of the implementation of an enterprise software solution during 2021, and we continued to implement additional functionality available in the solution in 2022 and 2023.  We expect this software to substantially improve our administrative efficiency and customer service levels. As we retain our focus toward modernization, we expect to continue to invest in robotics and automated material handling equipment across all of our domestic manufacturing facilities.

At March 31, 2023, the Company owed $45,000 under its primary credit facility.  During 2022, the Company drew the full $45,000 for working capital needs, and has since reduced the balance on its credit facility to $40,000 as of April 28, 2023.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

Our industry is, and will continue to be, cyclical in nature. In recent years, the overall demand for our productsnature, and resulting revenues 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 at times been negatively affected by:

wavering levelsare influenced by a variety of factors, including:

levels of consumer confidence;
domestic and international capital and credit markets and the availability and affordability of financing, including floor plan financing, for our customers and towing operators;
fuel and insurance costs, and macro-economic conditions such as broad-based inflation,  and their effect on the ability of our customers to purchase towing and related equipment; and
the overall effects of global, political, economic and health conditions.

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 economic 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.conditions.

In addition, weTable of Contents

We have been and will continue to be affected by the availability of, and changes in the prices that we pay for component parts and raw materials, particularly aluminum, steel and petroleum-related products, and other raw materials, which represent a substantial part of our total cost of operations.

Recent Trends and Outlook

The first half of 2022 was marked by continued challenges recovering from the global COVID-19 pandemic in the form of inflationary cost pressures in both raw materials and labor, as well as persistent supply chain disruptions that collectively had a materially adverse impact on our financial performance. We took pricing actions to offset these inflationary cost pressures, while continuing to execute against our strategic initiatives such as our ERP implementation, enterprise software upgrades, and other operational and productivity improvement initiatives aimed at reducing our expenses as a percentage of net sales.  We also continued to invest in our inventory in the form of critical parts and in goods near completion, in order to fulfil orders of finished goods as soon as the necessary parts became available.  

In the past,latter part of 2022, our strong backlog allowed revenues to increase as parts became more available due to supply chain improvement and actions that we have determined necessary,took over the course of 2022 to diversify and increase the flexibility of our supply chain.  Gross margin also steadily improved due to our pricing actions, productivity improvements and the easing of raw material costs. These trends accelerated in the first quarter of 2023, resulting in substantially increased revenues and net income for the period.

Based on our strong backlog, the price increases and productivity improvements we have implemented, price increaseslessening supply chain disruptions and easing inflationary pressures, we believe we are well positioned to offset higher costs. We also developed alternativescontinue enhancing our operating results.  However, our performance will be heavily influenced by, among other things, whether supply chain constraints and inflationary pressures continue to somelessen or worsen, the continuing impact of the components usedwar in Ukraine or other geopolitical factors, and the threat of recession and general economic factors.  The impact of these factors remains largely out of our control, and we currently anticipate that these factors will continue to have an adverse impact on our production process that incorporate these raw materials,capabilities, financial results and our suppliers have implemented these alternatives incash flow over the productionremainder 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.

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had $20,000 and $5,000 in outstanding borrowings under the credit facility, respectively. At October 31, 2017, the Company had $20,000 in outstanding borrowings under the credit facility. The borrowings under the credit facility were primarily used to finance our current capital expenditure projects for our Pennsylvania manufacturing operations and at our Ooltewah, Tennessee and Greeneville, Tennessee facilities.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,GAAP, which require us to make estimates. Certain accounting policies are deemed “critical,” as they require management’s highest degree of judgment, estimatesestimations and assumptions. A discussionThe 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 judgments and uncertainties affecting their application and the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions follows:first three months of 2023.

Accounts receivable

We extend creditFor additional information, refer to customersour summary of significant accounting policies in the normal course of business. Collections from customers are continuously monitored and an allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained based on historical experience and any specific customer collection issues. While such bad debt expenses have historically been within expectations and the allowance established, there can be no assurance that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates as in the past.

12

Inventory

Inventory costs include materials, labor and factory overhead. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market (net realizable value), determined on a first-in, first-out 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.

Long-lived assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be fully recoverable. When a determination has been made that the carrying amount of long-lived asset may not be fully recovered, the amount of impairment is measured by comparing an asset’s estimated fair value to its carrying value. The determination of fair value is based on projected future cash flows discounted at a rate determined by management, or if available independent appraisals or sales price negotiations. The estimation of fair value includes significant judgment regarding assumptions of revenue, operating costs, interest rates, property and equipment additions, and industry competition and general economic and business conditions among other factors. We believe that these estimates are reasonable; however, changes in any of these factors could affect these evaluations. Based on these estimates, we believe that our long-lived assets are appropriately valued.

Goodwill

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or if an event or circumstance occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair valueNote 2 of the reporting unit below the carrying amount. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment utilizing a qualitative assessment or a two-step process. If we choose"Notes to perform a qualitative analysis of goodwillConsolidated Financial Statements" in Part IV, Item 15 and determine that fair value more likely than not exceeds the carrying value, no further testing is needed. If we choose the two-step approach, the first step identifies potential impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value the second step is not necessary. If the carrying value is more than the fair value, the second step of testing is performed to compare the fair value of the goodwill with its carrying value. An impairment loss would be recognized to the extent that the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds its fair value. We cannot predict the occurrence of certain events or changes"Critical Accounting Policies" in circumstances that might adversely affect the carrying value of goodwill. Such events might include, but are not limited to, the impact of the economic environment or a material change in a relationship with significant customers.

Warranty reserves

We estimate expense for product warranty claims at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency, and average cost of warranty claims. We review trends of warranty claims and take actions to improve product quality and minimize warranty claims. We believe the warranty reserve is adequate; however, actual claims incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the accrual.

Income taxes

Our income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated current and future taxes to be paid. We are subject to income taxes in both the United States and foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense.

Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements, which will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The assumptions about future taxable income require significant judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates we use to manage the underlying businesses.

The calculationPart II, Item 7 of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties inAnnual Report on Form 10-K for the application of complex tax laws and regulations in multiple foreign jurisdictions. ASC 740 states that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation process, on the basis of the technical merits.

We (1) record unrecognized tax benefits as liabilities in accordance with ASC 740 and (2) adjust these liabilities when our judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Because of the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from our current estimate of the unrecognized tax benefit liabilities. These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which new information is available.

13

Revenues

Under our accounting policies, revenues are recorded when the risk of ownership for products has transferred to independent distributors or other customers, which generally occurs on shipment. From time to time, revenue is recognized under a bill and hold arrangement. Recognition of revenue on bill and hold arrangements occurs when risk of ownership has passed to the customer, a fixed written commitment has been provided by the customer, the goods are complete and ready for shipment, the goods are segregated from inventory, no performance obligation remains and a schedule for delivery has been established. While we manufacture only the bodies of wreckers, which are installed on truck chassis manufactured by third parties, we frequently purchase the truck chassis for resale to our customers. Sales of company-purchased truck chassis are included in net sales. Margin percentages are substantially lower on completed recovery vehicles containing company-purchased chassis because the markup over the cost of the chassis is nominal.

Foreign currency translation

The functional currency for our foreign operations is the applicable local currency. The translation from the applicable foreign currencies to U.S. dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, historical rates for equity and the weighted average exchange rate during the period for revenue and expense accounts. Foreign currency translation adjustments are included in shareholders’ equity. Intercompany transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are remeasured into the functional currency. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in other income and expense in our consolidated statements of income.

In June 2017, the Company sold the remaining plant location and realized a net gain of $601. A portion of the sold facility was leased from the buyer through November 2017 while production of certain equipment and storage of raw materials is relocated to the other Pennsylvania and Tennessee locations.
