The Company operates Bolzoni S.p.A. ("Bolzoni"). Bolzoni is a leading worldwide producer and distributor of attachments, forks and lift tables marketed under the Bolzoni®, Auramo® and Meyer® brand names. Bolzoni products are manufactured in the United States, Italy, China, Germany and Finland. Through the design, production and distribution of a wide range of attachments, Bolzoni has a strong presence in the market niche of lift-trucklift truck attachments and industrial material handling.

The Company operates Nuvera Fuel Cells, LLC ("Nuvera"). Nuvera is an alternative-power technology company focused on the design, manufacture and sale of hydrogen fuel-cellfuel cell stacks and engines.

Investments in Sumitomo NACCO Forklift Co., Ltd. (“SN”), a 50%-owned joint venture, and HYG Financial Services, Inc. ("HYGFS"), a 20%-owned joint venture, are accounted for by the equity method. SN operates manufacturing facilities in Japan, the Philippines and Vietnam from which the Company purchases certain components, service parts and lift trucks. Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd. ("Sumitomo") owns the remaining 50% interest in SN. Each stockholder of SN is entitled to appoint directors representing 50% of the vote of SN’s board of directors. All matters related to policies and programs of operation, manufacturing and sales activities require mutual agreement between the Company and Sumitomo prior to a vote of SN’s board of directors. HYGFS is a joint venture with Wells Fargo Financial Leasing, Inc. (“WF”), formed primarily for the purpose of providing financial services to independent Hyster® and Yale® lift truck dealers and National Account customers in the United States. National Account customers are large customers with centralized purchasing and geographically dispersed operations in multiple dealer territories. The Company’s percentage share of the net income or loss from these equity investments is reported on the line “Income from unconsolidated affiliates” in the “Other (income) expense” section of the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During 2020, broad measures taken by governments, businesses and others across the globe to limit the spread of novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") adversely affected the Company. The resulting significant decline in economic activity also reduced the demand for the Company's products and limited the availability of components from certain suppliers. Production was significantly reduced or suspended at the Company's Chinese and European facilities for certain periods during the first and second quarters of 2020. The Company also initiated several cost reduction measures designed to ease liquidity pressure. These cost containment actions included spending and travel restrictions, significant reductions in temporary personnel, furloughs, suspension of incentive compensation and profit sharing, benefit reductions and salary reductions. Effective January 1, 2021, the Company reinstated pre-pandemic salaries, benefits and incentive compensation programs. The cost containment actions associated with hiring, use of contract and temporary workers, travel and meetings, as well as other discretionary spending are continuing. These measures are expected to remain in place until market and economic uncertainty dissipates and results improve further, which the Company expects to occur over the course of 2021.improve. In addition, the Company adjusted production levels in 2020 at its manufacturing plants to align more closely with the reduced levels of demand, and worked closely with suppliers to help ensure current needs were met while also promoting continuity as the market improved. However, despite these efforts, during the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2021, the Company experienced further pandemic-related and other global supply chain constraints, component shortages, shipping container availability constraints and higher freight costs, as well as significant material cost inflation resulting from the accelerated pace of the market recovery, all of which have negatively impacted the Company.

Note 3—Revenue

Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied, which occurs when control of the trucks, parts, or services are transferred to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. The satisfaction of performance obligations under the terms of a revenue contract generally gives rise for the right to payment from the customer. The Company's standard payment terms vary by the type and location of the customer and the products or services offered. Generally, the time between when revenue is recognized and when payment is due is not significant. Given the insignificant days between revenue recognition and receipt of payment, financing components do not exist between the Company and its customers. Taxes collected from customers are excluded from revenue. The estimated costs of product warranties are recognized as expense when the products are sold. See Note 1011 for further information on product warranties.

The majority of the Company's sales contracts contain performance obligations satisfied at a point in time when title and risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. Revenues for service contracts are recognized as the services are provided.

The Company also records variable consideration in the form of estimated reductions to revenues for customer programs and incentive offerings, including special pricing agreements, promotions and other volume-based incentives. Lift truck sales revenue is recorded net of estimated discounts. The estimated discount amount is based upon historical experience and trend analysis for each lift truck model. In addition to standard discounts, dealers can also request additional discounts that allow

them to offer price concessions to customers. From time to time, the Company offers special incentives to increase market share or dealer stock and offers certain customers volume rebates if a specified cumulative level of purchases is obtained.
9

Table of Contents

For contracts with customers that include multiple performance obligations, judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations specified in these contracts are distinct and should be accounted for as separate revenue transactions for recognition purposes. For such arrangements, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers or using expected cost plus margin. Impairment losses recognized on receivables or contract assets were not significant for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are reported on the line “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company pays for shipping and handling activities regardless of when control is transferred and has elected to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the good, rather than a promised service. These costs are reported on the line “Cost of sales” in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Dealer sales are recognized when the Company transfers control based on the shipping terms of the contract, which is generally when the truck is shipped from the manufacturing facility to the dealer. The majority of direct customer sales are to National Account customers. In these transactions, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when it delivers the product to the customer according to the terms of the contract. Aftermarket sales represent parts sales, extended warranty and maintenance services. For the sale of aftermarket parts, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when parts are shipped to the customer. When customers are given the right to return eligible parts and accessories, the Company estimates the expected returns based on an analysis of historical experience. The Company adjusts estimated revenues at the earlier of when the most likely amount of consideration expected to be received changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. The Company recognizes revenue for extended warranty and maintenance agreements based on the standalone selling price over the life of the contract, which reflects the costs to perform under these contracts and corresponds with, and thereby depicts, the transfer of control to the customer. Bolzoni revenue from external customers is primarily the sale of attachments to customers. In these transactions, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue according to the shipping terms of the contract. In the United States, Bolzoni also has revenue for sales of lift truck components to HYGLift Truck plants. Nuvera's revenues include development funding from third-party development agreements and the sale of fuel cell stacks and engines to third parties and to HYG.Lift Truck. In all revenue transactions, the Company receives cash equal to the invoice price and amount of consideration received

and the revenue recognized may vary with changes in marketing incentives. Intercompany revenues between Bolzoni, Nuvera and the lift truck business have been eliminated.

Deferred Revenue: The Company defers revenue for transactions that have not met the criteria for recognition at the time payment is collected, including extended warranties and maintenance contracts. In addition, for certain products, services and customer types, the Company collects payment prior to the transfer of control to the customer.

Note 4—Business Segments

The Company’s reportable segments for the lift truck business include the following three management units: the Americas, EMEA and JAPIC. Americas includes operations in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Latin America and its corporate headquarters. EMEA includes operations in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. JAPIC includes operations in the Asia and Pacific regions, including China, as well as the equity earnings of SN operations. Certain amounts are allocated to these geographic management units and are included in the segment results presented below, including product development costs, corporate headquarter's expenses and certain information technology infrastructure costs. These allocations among geographic management units are determined by senior management and not directly incurred by the geographic operations. In addition, other costs are incurred directly by these geographic management units based upon the location of the manufacturing plant or sales units, including manufacturing variances, product liability, warranty and sales discounts, which may not be associated with the geographic management unit of the ultimate end user sales location where revenues and margins are reported. Therefore, the reported results of each segment for the lift truck business cannot be considered stand-alone entities as all segments are inter-related and integrate into a single global lift truck business.

Note 5—Income Taxes

The income tax provision includes U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign income taxes and is generally based on the application of a forecasted annual income tax rate applied to the current quarter's year-to-date pre-tax income or loss. In determining the estimated annual effective income tax rate, the Company analyzes various factors, including projections of the Company's annual earnings, taxing jurisdictions in which the earnings will be generated, the impact of state and local income taxes, the Company's ability to use tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards and capital loss carryforwards, and available
12

Table of Contents
tax planning alternatives. Discrete items, including the effect of changes in tax laws, tax rates and certain circumstances with respect to valuation allowances or the tax effect of other unusual or nonrecurring transactions or adjustments are reflected in the period in which they occur as an addition to, or reduction from, the income tax provision, rather than included in the estimated annual effective income tax rate. Additionally, the Company's interim effective income tax rate is computed and applied without regard to pre-tax losses where such losses are not expected to generate a current-year tax benefit. The Company's reported income tax rate for the first quarter of 2021 is recorded under this interim guidance.

However, in limited situations in which an estimated annual effective income tax rate cannot be reliably forecasted, the actual effective tax rate computed from year-to-date earnings should be reported instead. As a result of market conditions and uncertainty generated by the impacts of COVID-19 in the first quarter of 2020, the Company’s ability to reliably forecast earnings was limited. Accordingly, the Company’s reported income tax rate for the first quarter of 2020 is the actual effective tax rate.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Reform Act") includes anti-deferral and anti-base erosion provisions, the global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) provisions and the base-erosion and anti-abuse tax (“BEAT”) provisions. The GILTI provisions require the Company to include non-U.S. earnings in excess of an allowable return on the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries' tangible assets in its U.S. income tax return. The Company has elected to account for GILTI tax in the period in which it is incurred. The BEAT provisions in the Tax Reform Act created a minimum tax where a lower tax rate is applied to taxable income determined without the benefit of certain base-erosion payments made to related non-U.S. corporations. The Company is taxed under this regime if such minimum tax exceeds the regular U.S. corporate income tax. The GILTI and BEAT provisions, when applicable, are included in permanent adjustments in the table below.

During the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized a discrete tax benefit of $3.3 million and $4.3 million, respectively, related to the expiration of the statute of limitations for uncertain tax positions related to acquisitions for which an offsetting pre-tax indemnity receivable was also recorded. The expense for the release of the indemnity receivable was recorded in pre-tax earnings on the line “Other, net” in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company recognized a discrete tax charge of $1.4 million for the tax impact of the favorable adjustment for social contribution taxes previously imposed on material purchases in Brazil. See Note 12 for additional information.

Note 7—Current and Long-Term Financing

On May 28, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement for a $225.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan”) which expires on May 28, 2028 (the "Maturity Date"). The Term Loan replaced the Company’s previous term loan facility, which was set to mature on May 30, 2023.

The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments on the last day of each March, June, September and December commencing September 30, 2021 in an amount equal to $562,500 and the final principal repayment is due in May 2028. The Term Loan Borrower may also be required to make mandatory prepayments, in certain circumstances, as provided in the Term Loan.

The obligations under the Term Loan are generally secured by a first priority lien on the present and future shares of capital stock, material real property, fixtures and general intangibles consisting of intellectual property and a second priority lien on working capital assets of the Company, which includes, but is not limited to cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and inventory.

Borrowings under the Term Loan bear interest at a floating rate, which can be a base rate or Eurodollar rate, as defined in the Term Loan, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is 2.50% for base rate loans and 3.50% for Eurodollar loans. In addition, the Term Loan includes a Eurodollar rate floor of 0.50%.

In addition, the Term Loan includes restrictive covenants, which, among other things, limit additional borrowings and investments of the Company subject to certain thresholds, as provided in the Term Loan. The Term Loan limits the payment of dividends and other restricted payments the Company, including its subsidiaries may make up to $50.0 million in any fiscal year. Additional dividends may be paid if the consolidated total net leverage ratio, as defined in the Term Loan, does not exceed 2.50 to 1.00 at the time of the payment. The Term Loan also contains a provision requiring a premium to be paid in the event of a repricing of the borrowings under the Term Loan, whether by amendment or entry into new loans, within the six-month period following entry into the Term Loan.

At the time of execution of the Term Loan, approximately $1.5 million of deferred financing fees relating to the old term loan were expensed, which was recorded on the line "Other, net" in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. In addition, approximately $5.8 million of additional deferred financing fees were incurred in connection with the Term Loan.

On June 24, 2021, the Company entered into an amended and restated agreement for a $300.0 million secured floating-rate revolving credit facility (as amended, the "Facility"). The Facility consists of a domestic revolving credit facility in the initial amount of $210.0 million and a foreign revolving credit facility in the initial amount of $90.0 million. The facility expires June 24, 2026. The Facility replaced the Company's previous revolving credit facility, which was to expire April 28, 2022. The Facility can be increased to up to $400.0 million over the term of the Facility in minimum increments of $10.0 million, subject to approval by the lenders.

The obligations under the Facility are generally secured by a first priority lien on working capital assets of the Company, which includes but is not limited to cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and inventory, and a second priority lien on the present and future shares of capital stock, fixtures and general intangibles consisting of intellectual property.

Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at a floating rate, which can be a base rate, LIBOR or EURIBOR, as defined in the Facility, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margins are based on the total excess availability, as defined in the Facility, and range from 0.25% to 0.75% for U.S. base rate loans and 1.25% to 1.75% for LIBOR, EURIBOR and foreign base rate loans. For the period prior to June 30, 2021, the applicable margins under the Facility are 0.25% for U.S. base rate loans and 1.25% for LIBOR, EURIBOR and foreign base rate loans. In addition, the Facility requires the payment of a fee of 0.25% per annum on the unused commitment based on the average daily outstanding balance during the preceding month.

The Facility includes restrictive covenants, which, among other things, limit additional borrowings and investments of the Company and its subsidiaries subject to certain thresholds, as provided in the Facility. The Facility limits the payment of dividends and other restricted payments the Company, including its subsidiaries, may make unless certain total excess availability and/or fixed charge coverage ratio thresholds, each as set forth in the Facility, are satisfied. The Facility also requires the Company, including its subsidiaries to achieve a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio in which total excess availability is less than the greater of 10% of the total borrowing base, as defined in the Facility, and $20.0 million.

The Company incurred approximately $1.8 million of additional deferred financing fees in connection with the Facility.
Note 7—8—Financial Instruments and Derivative Financial Instruments

Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair values of revolving credit agreements and long-term debt, excluding capital leases, were determined using current rates offered for similar obligations taking into account company credit risk. This valuation methodology is Level 2 as defined in the fair value hierarchy. At March 31,June 30, 2021, the fair value and carrying value of revolving credit agreements and long-term debt, excluding finance leases, was $256.8$318.5 million and $258.0$319.6 million, respectively. At December 31, 2020, the fair value and carrying value of revolving credit agreements and long-term debt, excluding finance leases, was $257.2 million and $260.5 million, respectively.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts to partially reduce risks related to transactions denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts hedge firm commitments and forecasted transactions relating to cash flows associated with sales and purchases denominated in non-functional currencies. The Company offsets fair value amounts related to foreign currency exchange contracts executed with the same counterparty. Changes in the fair value of forward foreign currency exchange contracts that are effective as hedges are recorded in OCI. Deferred gains or losses are reclassified from OCI to the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations in the same period as the gains or losses from the underlying transactions are recorded and are generally recognized in cost of sales.

The Company periodically enters into foreign currency exchange contracts that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. These derivatives are used to reduce the Company's exposure to foreign currency risk related to forecasted purchase or sales transactions or forecasted intercompany cash payments or settlements. Gains and losses on these derivatives are generally recognized in cost of sales.

The Company periodically enters into forward foreign currency contracts that are designated as net investment hedges of the Company's net investment in its foreign subsidiaries. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualified as a hedge of a net investment in foreign currency, the gain or loss is reported in other comprehensive income as part of the cumulative translation adjustment to the extent it is effective. The Company utilizes the forward-rate method of assessing hedge effectiveness.

Table of Contents
The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to partially reduce risks related to floating rate financing agreements that are subject to changes in the market rate of interest. Terms of the interest rate swap agreements require the Company to receive a variable interest rate and pay a fixed interest rate. The Company's interest rate swap agreements and the associated variable rate financings are predominately based upon the one-month LIBOR. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swap agreements that are effective as hedges are recorded in OCI. Deferred gains or losses are reclassified from OCI to the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations in the same period as the gains or losses from the underlying transactions are recorded and are generally recognized in interest expense.

Cash flows from hedging activities are reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows with the same classification as the hedged item, generally as a component of cash flows from operations.

The Company measures its derivatives at fair value on a recurring basis using significant observable inputs. This valuation methodology is Level 2 as defined in the fair value hierarchy. The Company uses a present value technique that incorporates yield curves and foreign currency spot rates to value its derivatives and also incorporates the effect of the Company's and its counterparties' credit risk into the valuation.

The Company does not currently hold any nonderivative instruments designated as hedges or any derivatives designated as fair value hedges.

Foreign Currency Derivatives: The Company held forward foreign currency exchange contracts with total notional amounts of $878.1 million$1.0 billion at March 31,June 30, 2021, primarily denominated in euros, Japanese yen, U.S. dollars, British pounds,Chinese renminbi, Mexican pesos, Chinese renminbi, Swedish kroner, British pounds and Australian dollars. The Company held forward foreign currency exchange contracts with total notional amounts of $840.5 million at December 31, 2020, primarily denominated in euros, U.S. dollars, Japanese yen, British pounds, Chinese renminbi, Mexican pesos, Swedish kroner and Australian dollars. The fair value of these contracts approximated a net liabilityasset of $3.0$2.3 million and a net asset of $23.5 million at March 31,June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts that qualify for hedge accounting are generally used to hedge transactions expected to occur within the next 36 months. The mark-to-market effect of forward foreign currency exchange contracts that are considered effective as hedges has been included in OCI. Based on market valuations at March 31,June 30, 2021, $0.9$3.7 million of the amount of net deferred lossgain included in OCI at March 31,June 30, 2021 is expected to be reclassified as income into the unaudited condensed consolidated statementstatements of operations over the next twelve months, as the transactions occur.

Interest Rate Derivatives: The Company holds certain contracts that hedge interest payments on its $200.0$225.0 million Term Loan borrowings. In the second quarter of 2021, the Company entered into new interest rate swaps with a six-year term loan (the "Term Loan") borrowings. and $180.0 million notional amount. The previous interest rate swaps were amended and included in the new interest rate swaps. The fair value of the previous interest rate swaps will be amortized over the remaining original term. In addition, the Company holds certain contracts that hedge interest payments on Bolzoni's debt.

The following table summarizes the notional amounts, related rates, excluding spreads, and remaining terms of interest rate swap agreements at March 31,June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market for last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) inventory or lower of cost or net realizable value for first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) inventory. At March 31,June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 47%48% and 42%, respectively, of total inventories were determined using the LIFO method, which consists primarily of manufactured inventories, including service parts, for the lift truck business in the United States. The FIFO method is used with respect to all other inventories. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of the year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must be based on management's estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Because these estimates are subject to change and may be different than the actual inventory levels and costs at the end of the year, interim results are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

Note 10—11—Product Warranties

The Company provides a standard warranty on its lift trucks, generally for twelve months or 1,000 to 2,000 hours. For certain series of lift trucks, the Company provides a standard warranty of one to two years or 2,000 or 4,000 hours. For certain components in some series of lift trucks, the Company provides a standard warranty of two to three years or 4,000 to 6,000 hours. The Company estimates the costs which may be incurred under its standard warranty programs and records a liability for such costs at the time product revenue is recognized.

In addition, the Company sells separately priced, extended warranty agreements for its lift trucks, which generally provide a warranty for an additional two to five years or up to 2,400 to 10,000 hours. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending upon the product sold and the country in which the Company does business. Revenue received for the sale of extended warranty contracts is deferred and recognized in the same manner as the costs incurred to perform under the warranty contracts.

Table of Contents
The Company also maintains a quality enhancement program under which it provides for specifically identified field product improvements in its warranty obligation. Accruals under this program are determined based on estimates of the potential number of claims and the cost of those claims based on historical and anticipated costs.

The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Factors that affect the warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims and the cost per claim.

Changes in the Company's current and long-term warranty obligations, including deferred revenue on extended warranty contracts, are as follows:

Note 11—12—Contingencies

Various legal and regulatory proceedings and claims have been or may be asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of its businesses, including product liability, environmental and other claims. These proceedings and claims are incidental to the ordinary course of business. Management believes that it has meritorious defenses and will vigorously defend the Company in these actions. Any costs that management estimates will be paid as a result of these claims are accrued when the liability is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Although the ultimate disposition of these proceedings is not presently determinable, management believes, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the likelihood is remote that costs will be incurred materially in excess of accruals already recognized.

The Company previously filed legal actionslawsuits in Brazil to recover certain social integration and social contribution taxes paid overon gross sales, including the ICMS, receipts, which is a form of state value added tax. During the course of the lawsuit, many other taxpayers filed lawsuits with the same objective. Due to the increasing number of lawsuits filed, the Federal Supreme Court ("STF") declared that all ongoing legal cases should have their decision suspended until the STF decides on the matter, a decision that was expected to apply to all cases on this topic.

In 2019, the Company’s BrazilCompany's legal advisors in Brazil notified the Company that they received judicial notification that the Superior Judicial Court renderedSTF had issued a favorable decision onin the case granting the Company the right to recover, through offset ofby offsetting federal tax liabilities, amounts of overpayments collected by the government from 1999 to the present date. The judicial court decision is final and not subject to appeals. The current estimate of the refund calculated on a gross basis is approximately 100110 million Brazilian reais, or approximately $17$22 million as of March 31,June 30, 2021.    

Despite the favorable decision of the STF, the Brazilian tax authorities sought clarification in the same main lawsuit on certain issues, including the value of these credits (i.e., the gross rate or the net credit value), and certain other issues that could affect the Brazilian taxpayers' rights with respect to these credits, all of which could materially impact the realization of the credits. During the second quarter of 2021, the STF ruled in favor of taxpayers that the refund should be calculated on a gross basis.

The amount and ultimate timing of realization of these recoveries is dependent upon administrative approvals, generation of federal tax liabilities in Brazil eligible for offset and potential impacts of future legislative actions within Brazil, all of which are uncertain. Based upon a probability weighted analysis, including a reviewThe Company is in the process of historical earnings and trends, forecasted earnings,negotiating the relevant expirationsale of carryforwards and the potential of selling thethese credits at a significant discount the Company determinedand has revised the net realizable value of the credits isto approximately 829 million Brazilian reais, or $1.4$5.8 million as of March 31,June 30, 2021.

Note 12—13—Guarantees

repurchase obligations were not significant and reserves have been provided for such losses based on historical experience in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company generally retains a security interest in the related assets financed such that, in the event the Company would become obligated under the terms of the recourse or repurchase obligations, the Company would take title to the assets financed. The fair value of collateral held at March 31,June 30, 2021 was approximately $184.2$185.4 million based on Company estimates. The Company estimates the fair value of the collateral using information regarding the original sales price, the current age of the equipment and general market conditions that influence the value of both new and used lift trucks. The Company also regularly monitors the external credit ratings of the entities for which it has provided recourse or repurchase obligations. As of March 31,June 30, 2021, the Company did not believe there was a significant risk of non-payment or non-performance of the obligations by these entities; however, there can be no assurance that the risk may not increase in the future. In addition, the Company has an agreement with WF to limit its exposure to losses at certain eligible dealers. Under this agreement, losses related to $22.3 million of recourse or repurchase obligations for these certain eligible dealers are limited to 7.5% of their original loan balance, or $12.5$11.4 million as of March 31,June 30, 2021. The $22.3 million is included in the $120.6$121.7 million of total amounts subject to recourse or repurchase obligations at March 31,June 30, 2021.

Generally, the Company sells lift trucks through its independent dealer network or directly to customers.

may require the Company to provide recourse or repurchase obligations of the lift trucks purchased by customers and financed through HYGFS. At March 31,June 30, 2021, approximately $97.5$95.7 million of the Company's total recourse or repurchase obligations of $120.6$121.7 million related to transactions with HYGFS. In connection with the joint venture agreement, the Company also provides a guarantee to WF for 20% of HYGFS’ debt with WF, such that the Company would become liable under the terms of HYGFS’ debt agreements with WF in the case of default by HYGFS. At March 31,June 30, 2021, loans from WF to HYGFS totaled $1.1 billion. Although the Company’s contractual guarantee was $230.0$225.6 million, the loans by WF to HYGFS are secured by HYGFS’ customer receivables, of which the Company guarantees $97.5$95.7 million. Excluding the HYGFS receivables guaranteed by the Company from HYGFS’ loans to WF, the Company’s incremental obligation as a result of this guarantee to WF is $212.4$208.6 million, which is secured by 20% of HYGFS' customer receivables and other secured assets of $281.1$278.1 million. HYGFS has not defaulted under the terms of this debt financing in the past, and although there can be no assurances, the Company is not aware of any circumstances that would cause HYGFS to default in future periods.

The Company offers a broad array of solutions aimed at meeting the specific materials handling needs of its customers, including attachments and hydrogen fuel cell power products, telematics, automation and fleet management services, as well as a variety of other power options for its lift trucks. The Company, through HYG, designs, engineers, manufactures, sells and services a comprehensive line of lift trucks, attachments and aftermarket parts marketed globally primarily under the Hyster® and Yale® brand names, mainly to independent Hyster® and Yale® retail dealerships. The materials handling business historically has been cyclical because the rate of orders for lift trucks fluctuates depending on the general level of economic activity in the various industries and countries its customers serve. Lift trucks and component parts are manufactured in the United States, China, Northern Ireland, Mexico, the Netherlands, the Philippines, Japan, Italy, Brazil and Vietnam.

The Company operates Bolzoni S.p.A. ("Bolzoni"). Bolzoni is a leading worldwide producer and distributor of attachments, forks and lift tables marketed under the Bolzoni®, Auramo® and Meyer® brand names. Bolzoni products are manufactured in the United States, Italy, China, Germany and Finland.

The Company operates Nuvera Fuel Cells, LLC ("Nuvera"). Nuvera is an alternative-power technology company focused on the design, manufacture and sale of hydrogen fuel cell stacks and engines.
During 2020, broad measures taken by governments, businesses and others across the globe to limit the spread of novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") adversely affected the Company. The resulting significant decline in economic activity also reduced the demand for the Company's products and limited the availability of components from certain suppliers. Production was significantly reduced or suspended at the Company's Chinese and European facilities for certain periods during the first and second quarters of 2020. The Company also initiated several cost reduction measures designed to ease liquidity pressure. These cost containment actions included spending and travel restrictions, significant reductions in temporary personnel, furloughs, suspension of incentive compensation and profit sharing, benefit reductions and salary reductions. Effective January 1, 2021, the Company reinstated pre-pandemic salaries, benefits and incentive compensation programs. The cost containment actions associated with hiring, use of contract and temporary workers, travel and meetings, as well as other discretionary spending are continuing. These measures are expected to remain in place until market and economic uncertainty dissipates and results improve further, which the Company expects to occur over the course of 2021.improve. In addition, the Company adjusted production levels in 2020 at its manufacturing plants to align more closely with the reduced levels of demand, and worked closely with suppliers to help ensure current needs were met while also promoting continuity as the market improved. However, despite these efforts, during the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2021, the Company experienced further pandemic-related and other global supply chain constraints, component shortages, shipping container availability constraints and higher freight costs, as well as significant material cost inflation resulting from the accelerated pace of the market recovery, all of which have negatively impacted the Company.

2021$5.9 

The Company recognized operating profit of $5.9 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared with $8.7 million in the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in operating profit was mainly due to higher selling, general and administrative expenses in the lift truck business primarily due to the reinstatement of pre-pandemic employee-related salaries and benefits. In addition, the second quarter of 2020 included $8.3 million of government support incentives received at EMEA and Bolzoni. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was somewhat offset by higher gross profit, primarily from higher unit and part volume and a favorable $6.3 million adjustment for tax credits in Brazil. The increase in gross profit was somewhat

offset by significant material and freight cost inflation due to supply chain and logistics constraints, mainly in the Americas. See Note 12 for further discussion of the Brazilian tax credits.

Operating profit in the Americas significantly decreased to $13.6 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared with $23.3 million the second quarter of 2020 due to an increase in operating expenses mainly resulting from the reinstatement of pre-pandemic salaries and benefits that were suspended in 2020 and a decrease in gross profit. Gross profit declined primarily due to material cost inflation and increased freight costs of $11.6 million, net of price increases of $4.2 million, a shift in sales mix to lower-margin lift trucks and higher manufacturing costs of $3.7 million resulting from inefficiencies associated with component shortages. The decrease in gross profit was partly offset by the realization of higher margins on parts sales and a $6.3 million favorable adjustment for social contribution taxes previously imposed on material purchases in Brazil.

Despite the absence of $4.7 million of government support incentives received in the prior year, EMEA's operating profit increased to $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2021 from an operating loss of $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily the result of a substantial improvement in gross profit partially offset by higher operating expenses mainly resulting from the reinstatement of pre-pandemic salaries and employee benefits. Gross profit improved mainly due to an increase in unit and parts volumes, the favorable effect of currency exchange rates and higher prices implemented to partially offset increases in material and freight costs.

JAPIC's operating loss improved to $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2021 from $3.5 million in the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to improved gross profit from higher unit volume and favorable foreign currency movements.

The improvements in gross profit from higher unit volumes of higher margin products and lower manufacturing costs from improved operating efficiencies were offset by material cost and freight cost inflation and the absence of government subsidies of $3.6 million recorded in the second quarter of 2020.

Nuvera's operating loss increased to $9.0 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared with $8.3 million in the second quarter of 2020 as result of the reinstatement of pre-pandemic salaries and benefits and the absence of $0.6 million of a gain on the sale of assets recognized in the second quarter of 2020.

The Company recognized net income attributable to stockholders of $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared with $3.6 million in the second quarter of 2020. The decrease was primarily the result of lower operating profit and the write-off of deferred financing fees from the refinancing of the Term Loan (as defined below) in the second quarter of 2021. These items were partially offset by higher equity earnings in unconsolidated subsidiaries. See Note 7 for further discussion of the refinancing of the Term Loan.

results are still uncertain due both to the timing of the full impact of the strategic projects and the continuing financial impact of the pandemic and subsequent pandemic-related supply chain and cost challenges.

Until COVID-19 cases are consistently at safe low levels, the Company plans to continue to maintain procedures designed to limit the exposure of employees to the spread of COVID-19. At the same time, the CompanyWhile recent Lift Truck and its employees remain committed to meeting the needs of dealers and end customers by ensuring they receive equipment, parts and services in a timely manner to the degree reasonably possible.

While recentBolzoni market and bookings activity arehave been strong and while growth since the 2020 second quarter shutdowns has been better than expected, the level of future bookings and the resulting shipments are still uncertain. Overall, the Company continues to operate on the assumption that the economic and market environment will remain difficult in 2021for at least the remainder of the year until COVID-19 and its variants are mitigated through the broad acceptance of vaccinations and alternative therapies are fully implemented, cases decrease to substantially lower levelssubsequent herd immunity, and related supply chain issues are resolved.

Early in 2020, the Company put in place plans to mitigate the impact of declining markets and bookings and the consequential impact of reduced manufacturing activity from pandemic-related shutdowns by initiating cost reduction measures. These measures included spending and travel restrictions, significant reductions in temporary personnel, furloughs, salary reductions and suspension of other benefits, including incentive compensation. Effective January 1, 2021, the Company reinstated pre-pandemic salaries, benefits and incentive compensation programs. The other cost containment actions are continuing,generally still in place, and are expected to remain in placeso until market and economic uncertainty dissipates and results improve further, which the Company expects to occur over the course of 2021.improve.

In the 2020 fourth quarter, the CompanyLift Truck business restructured some of its operations to create a more sustainablelower long-term cost structure. The Company anticipates it will incur charges of approximately $1.1$0.8 million in the remainder of 2021 for additional costs related to this restructuring. Estimated benefits from this restructuring program are expected to be approximately $10.4$9 million annually beginning in 2022.

Significant material cost inflation and higher freight costs are also expected to continue into the second and third quarters,half of the year, and the non-renewal of tariff exclusions is also expected to affect the cost of components in the second half of 2021. The Company hasBoth the Lift Truck business and Bolzoni have announced and implemented price increases to moderate the effect of material cost inflation but many of the orders in the backlog slotted for production in 2021 do not reflect the full effect of these price increases. As a result, the Company expects to continue to experience margin pressure throughout the second half of 2021 due to the lag between when these price increases went into effect and when they are fully realizedeffective since customer orders in the backlog are generally price protected. The Company will continue to work closely with suppliers to advanceincrease component supply levels and increase its production levels.

More broadly, as a result, pandemic-related uncertainty and its effect on the supply chain continue to limit the Company's ability to forecast bookings and shipment levels forpast the remaining 2021 quarters.third quarter of 2021.

Looking to the future, in the context of an improving bookings trend,Despite these challenges, the Company expects to increase its investment in working capital and other expenditures to support growth in its business. Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $68$50 million in the second half of 2021. While the Company expects to make these substantial additional investments in the business during 2021, maintaining liquidity also continues to be a priority. At March 31,June 30, 2021, the Company's cash on hand was $103.0$87.5 million and debt was $285.4$345.7 million compared with cash on hand of $151.4$103.0 million and debt of $289.2$285.4 million at DecemberMarch 31, 2020.2021. Term Loan debt increased with the refinancing of the Company's term loan in May 2021. In addition, as of March 31,June 30, 2021, the Company had unused borrowing capacity of approximately $265.3$313.9 million under the Company's existing revolving credit facilities, including the Company's recently refinanced Asset Backed Revolver, compared with $266.4$265.3 million at DecemberMarch 31, 2020.

Despite the potential volatility of near-term economic activity, the Company continues to execute its long-term strategy by focusing on advancing its key strategic initiatives. Collectively, the key projects underlying its strategic initiatives are expected to have a transformational impact on the Company’s competitiveness, market position and economic performance. While essentially all of the projects required to execute these initiatives continue to move forward, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and current logistics challenges, the pace of certain projects has been given greater emphasis than others. In addition, certain accelerated projects have experienced delays as a result of the impact of pandemic-related challenges.challenges, although the continued increase in bookings and the Company's historically high backlog reinforce the long-term potential payoff from these programs.

At the Lift Truck business, product projects are expected to lay the groundwork for enhanced market position by providing lower cost of ownership and enhanced productivity for the Company’s customers. While the Company continues to introduce a number of new products during this period, the primary focus iscontinues to be on athe Company's new set of modular and scalable product families covering both internal combustion engine and electric trucks designed to provide customers with enhanced flexibility for meeting their application needs in addition to the benefit of lowestlow total cost of ownership. The introduction of the first of these new modular products, the standard version of the 2-to-3 ton internal combustioninternal-combustion engine lift truck for the EMEA market, was launched in April 2021. These new EMEA trucks have been very well-receivedwell received and the launch of this new range of the 2-to-3 ton counterbalanced trucks toin other markets is expected to continue throughout 2021 and the early part of 2022.

The introduction of these new products has led to, and will continue to lead to, significant changes in supply chain sourcing and in the Company’s various manufacturing facilities around the world as certain products are moved between plants. Consolidated component volume sourced globally from reliable partners is expected to reduce long-term costs and improve quality as these new products are brought to market over time. Lift Truck’sHyster-Yale Group’s largest manufacturing facilities, its Berea, Craigavon and Fuyang plants, are undergoing significant changes to accommodate these new products and significant investments are being made to expand the Berea and Craigavon plants. Further, the Company has acceleratedis accelerating plans to move certain production locations to provide permanent structural changes designed to reduce costs and optimize its manufacturing footprint.

The Company believes the modular nature of the new products being introduced will enhance its ability to meet customer needs at the lowestlow cost, and with more specificity, both at the industry level and at the individual customer level. To capitalize on this capability, the Company has accelerated its focus on implementing comprehensive industry strategies and investing in industry-focused sales capabilities to support its dealers. Given the COVID-19 environment, the Company has also focused on enhancing its remote selling capabilities through technology and IT enhancements.

Bolzoni continues to focus on implementing its "One Company - 3 Brands" organizational approach to help streamline corporate operations and strengthen its North America and JAPIC commercial operations. Bolzoni is also focused on increasing its Americas business and strengthening its ability to serve industries in the North America market by introducing a broader range of locally produced attachments with shorter lead times to serve its customer base and through continuing to sell cylinders and various other components produced in its Sulligent, Alabama plant.

Nuvera continues to focus on serving heavy-duty applications, particularly bus and truck applications, with its 45kW and 60kW engines, which were both released for sale late in 2020. As a result of thesethose milestones, Nuvera has accelerated the 45kW and 60kW engine commercialization operations for the global market and ishas been focusing on ramping up demonstrations, quotes and bookings of these products in 2021. In addition, Nuvera has initiated development of a new 125kW engine and also continues to focus on the forklift truck market.

The Company believes that, despite significant current inflation and logistics issues, it is at an inflection point in its businesses as a result of the momentum of its strategic projects as they move to full implementation. While these initiatives may reduce the Company's near-term financial results, they are expected to position the Company with enhanced market position as market and component supply conditions return to more normal levels.

Nevertheless, the Company recognizes that the timing and shape of the market recovery remains uncertain, and it will continue to maintain its contingency plans which are designed to respond appropriately and with agility to changing conditions. Once the COVID-19 pandemic and its resulting effects have fully abated and markets have returned to normal, the Company believes the full impact of these projects will lead to significant profitability improvements for a number of years into the future.

In summary, the Company's strategy for the longer term is clear and transformative. Key projects, as well as explicit objectives for the Lift Truck, Bolzoni and Nuvera businesses, support this long-term strategy, but nearer-term prospects, particularly in 2021, are uncertain as a result of a number of abnormal, largely external, influences. These influences include the direct impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on some markets, suppliers' manufacturing levels around the world and logistics issues, which collectively create supply and cost challenges, as well as the timing of adoption rates for key fuel cell market segments. Importantly, however, the Company has a record lift truck backlog and a strong current booking environment. Future increased shipment opportunities are very significant. However, when these increases will occur, given the supply and logistics challenges, is difficult to forecast.
