Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels, and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.
Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, pension assets and our revolving credit facility.liabilities. The carrying value of these instruments approximates fair value as a result of the short duration of such instruments or due to the variability of the interest cost associated with such instruments.
The fair value of long-term debt obligations is based on a fair value model utilizing observable inputs. Based on these inputs, our long-term debt fair value as disclosed is classified as Level 2. The carrying amounts and fair values of our long-term debt obligations are as follows:

We have recorded valuation allowances in prior years related to certain foreign subsidiaries due to multiple year cumulative losses. Given the current earnings and anticipated future earnings of some of the Company's foreign locations, the Company believes there is a reasonable possibility that within the next 12 months, sufficient positive evidence may become available to allow it to reach a conclusion that the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets of certain foreign entities will no longer be needed. Releasing the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Diluted earnings per share did not include 422 thousand antidilutive outstanding restricted stock awards forperiod the release is recorded. However, the exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to change on the basis of the level of profitability that the Company is able to actually achieve.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016.2022 and 2021, cash paid for taxes, net of refunds received, were $4.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively.

14. Cost Reduction and 2016. Unrecognized compensation expense was $1.4 millionManufacturing Capacity Rationalization
During 2019, the Company began implementing cost reduction and $1.2 million as of September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
7. Accounts Receivable
Trade accounts receivable are stated at current value less an allowance for doubtful accounts, which approximates fair value. This allowance is estimated based primarily on management’s evaluation of specific balances as the balances become past due, the financial condition of our customers and our historical experience with write-offs. If not reserved through specific identification procedures, our general policy for potentially uncollectible accounts ismanufacturing capacity rationalization initiatives (the "Restructuring Initiatives") in response to reserve at a certain percentage based upon the aging categories of accounts receivable and our historical experience with write-offs. Past due status is based upon the due date of the original amounts outstanding. When items are ultimately deemed uncollectible they are charged off against the reserve previously establisheddeclines in the allowance for doubtful accounts.
8. Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost or market. Cost includes applicable material, labor and overhead. Inventories consisted of the following:
|
| | | | | | | |
| September 30, 2017 | | December 31, 2016 |
Raw materials | $ | 61,646 |
| | $ | 46,352 |

|
Finished goods | 16,150 |
| | 13,468 |
|
| $ | 88,442 |
| | $ | 71,054 |
|
Inventories on-hand are regularly reviewed and, when necessary, provisions for excess and obsolete inventory are recorded based primarily on our estimated production requirements which reflect expectedend market volumes. ExcessFurthermore, in 2020 the Company began implementing additional cost reduction initiatives and obsolete provisions may vary by product depending upon future potential use of the product.
9. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. We review goodwill for impairment annually, initially utilizing a qualitative assessment,further manufacturing capacity rationalization initiatives in the second fiscal quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Our goodwill is attributableresponse to the GTB Segment.COVID-19 pandemic ("the 2020 Initiatives"). The Restructuring Initiatives and 2020 Initiatives consist primarily of headcount reductions in each segment and at corporate, as well as other costs associated with transfer of production and subsequent closure of facilities, and expansion of production footprint to manufacture warehouse automation subsystems.
We performed
On November 1, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors approved a Step One fair value assessmentrestructuring program to align the Company's cost structure to support margin expansion. The program includes workforce reductions and footprint optimization across segments.
We review definite-lived intangible assets, including trademarks, tradenames and customer relationships, for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the estimated undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of such assets, we recognize an impairment loss in an amount necessary to write down the assets to fair value as estimated from expected future discounted cash flows. Estimating the fair value of these assets is judgmental in nature and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. We base our fair value estimates on assumptions we believe to be reasonable, but that are inherently uncertain.

Leases — We lease office, warehouse and manufacturing space and certain equipment under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that generally require us to pay maintenance, insurance, taxes and other expenses in addition to annual rental fees. The anticipated future lease costs are based in part on certain assumptions and we monitor these costs to determine if the estimates need to be revised in the future. As of September 30, 2017,2022, our equipment leases did not provide for any material guarantee of a specified portion of residual values.
Guarantees - Costs associated with guarantees are accrued when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The most likely cost to be incurred is accrued based on an evaluation of available facts; where no amount within a range of estimates is more likely, the minimum is accrued. As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, we had no such guarantees.

Warranty - We are subject to warranty claims for products that fail to perform as expected due to design or manufacturing deficiencies. Depending on the terms under which we supply products to our customers, a customer may hold us responsible for some or all of the repair or replacement costs of defective products when the product supplied did not perform as represented. Our policy is to record provisions for estimated future customer warranty costs based on historical trends and for specific claims.

Term Loan and Security Agreement
On April 12, 2017, the Company entered into a $175.0 million senior secured term loan credit facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), maturing on April 12, 2023, pursuant to a term loan and security agreement (the “TLS Agreement”) with certain subsidiariesother liabilities consisted of the Company party thereto as guarantors, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and other lender parties thereto. Concurrent with the closing of the TLS Agreement, the proceeds of the Term Loan Facility were used, together with cash on hand in the amount of $74.0 million, to (a) fund the redemption, satisfaction and discharge of all of the Company’s outstanding 7.875% notes along with accrued interest; and (b) pay related transaction costs, fees and expenses. In conjunction with the redemption of the 7.875% notes, the Company recognized a non-cash charge of $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2017 to write-off deferred financing fees and a prepayment charge for interest of $1.5 million paid to bondholders during the 30-day notification period associated with the redemption of the 7.875% notes.following:
There was $0.1 million in accrued interest as of September 30, 2017. The unamortized deferred financing fees of $3.0 million and original issue discount of $3.2 million are netted against the aggregate book value of the outstanding debt to arrive at a balance of $167.7 million as of September 30, 2017 and are being amortized over the remaining life of the agreement. | | | | | | | | | | | |

The term loan is a senior secured obligation of the Company. Our obligations under the TLS Agreement are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company. The obligations of the Company and the guarantors under the TLS Agreement are secured (subject to certain permitted liens) by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the non-current assets (and a second priority lien on substantially all of the current assets) of the Company and the guarantors, including a first priority pledge of certain capital stock of the domestic and foreign subsidiaries directly owned by the Company and the guarantors. The liens, the security interests and all of the obligations of the Company and the guarantors and all provisions regarding remedies in an event of default are subject to an intercreditor agreement among the Company, the guarantors, the agent for the lenders party to the Company’s revolving credit facility and the collateral agent under the TLS Agreement.
Terms, Covenants and Compliance Status
The TLS Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, including limitations on our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to: incur additional debt; pay dividends or other restricted payments; make investments; engage in transactions with affiliates; create liens on assets; and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries. In
addition, the TLS Agreement contains a financial maintenance covenant requiring the Company to maintain a Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter not to exceed the ratios set forth in the applicable table within the TLS Agreement.The TLS Agreement also contains customary reporting and other affirmative covenants. We were in compliance with the covenants as of September 30, 2017.
The TLS Agreement requires the Company to repay principal of approximately $1.1 million on the last day of each quarter commencing with the quarter ending September 30, 2017 and extending through March 31, 2024, with the remaining outstanding principal due at maturity.
Voluntary prepayments of amounts outstanding under the TLS Agreement are permitted at any time, without premium or penalty; provided, however, that a prepayment penalty equal to 1.0% of the prepaid amount is required to be paid in connection with certain events that have the effect of reducing the all-in-yield applicable to the term loan during the 12 months following the initial funding thereof. In addition, to the extent applicable, customary LIBOR breakage charges may be payable in connection with any prepayment.
The TLS Agreement requires the Company to make mandatory prepayments with excess cash flow, the proceeds of certain asset dispositions and upon the receipt of insurance or condemnation proceeds, and, in the case of an asset disposition or insurance or condemnation event, to the extent the Company does not reinvest the proceeds within the periods set forth in the TLS Agreement.
The TLS Agreement includes customary events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods) which include, among others:
• nonpayment of obligations when due;
• breach of covenants or other agreements in the TLS Agreement; and
• defaults in payment of certain other indebtedness.
Revolving Credit Facility
On April 12, 2017, the Company entered into the Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement ("Third ARLS Agreement") increasing its senior secured revolving credit facility to $65 million from $40 million and setting the maturity date to April 12, 2022. Up to an aggregate of $10.0 million is available to the Company and the other borrowers for the issuance of letters of credit, which reduces availability under the Third ARLS Agreement.
The Third ARLS Agreement included amendments to certain definitions and covenants including, but not limited to, amendments to (i) permitted debt, (ii) permitted distributions, (iii) distribution of assets, and (iv) the calculation of EBITDA. The Third ARLS Agreement contains a fixed charge coverage ratio maintenance covenant of 1.00:1.00 and amended the availability threshold for triggering compliance with the fixed charge coverage ratio.
The borrowers’ obligations under the revolving credit facility are secured (subject to certain permitted liens) by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the current assets (and a second priority lien on substantially all of the non-current assets) of the borrowers. Each of the Company and each other borrower is jointly and severally liable for the obligations under the revolving credit facility and unconditionally guarantees the prompt payment and performance thereof. The liens, the security interests and all of the obligations of the Company and each other borrower and all provisions regarding remedies in an event of default are subject to an intercreditor agreement among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, the agent under the Third ARLS Agreement and the collateral agent for the lenders party to the Company’s term loan credit facility.
The applicable margin is based on average daily availability under the revolving credit facility as follows:
|
| | | | | | | | |
Level | | Average Daily Availability | | Base Rate Loans | | LIBOR Revolver Loans |
III | | ≥ $24,000,000 | | 0.50 | % | | 1.50 | % |
II | | > $12,000,000 but < $24,000,000 | | 0.75 | % | | 1.75 | % |

The applicable margin will be subject to increase or decrease by the agent on the first day of the calendar month following each fiscal quarter end. If the agent is unable to calculate average daily availability for a fiscal quarter due to borrowers' failure to deliver a borrowing base certificate when required, the applicable margin will be set at Level I until the first day of the calendar month following receipt of a borrowing base certificate. As of September 30, 2017, the applicable margin was set at Level III.
The unamortized deferred financing fees associated with our revolving credit facility of $1.1 million and $0.1 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, were being amortized over the remaining life of the agreement. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we did not have borrowings under the revolving credit facility and had outstanding letters of credit of $2.1 million and $2.5 million, respectively. We had borrowing availability of $62.9 million at September 30, 2017.
The Company pays a commitment fee to the lenders equal to 0.25% per annum of the unused amounts under the revolving credit facility.
Terms, Covenants and Compliance Status
The Third ARLS Agreement requires the maintenance of a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The borrowers however are not required to comply with the fixed charge coverage ratio requirement for as long as the borrowers maintain borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility at the greater of (i) $5,000,000 and (ii) ten percent (10%) of the revolving commitments. If borrowing availability falls below this threshold at any time, the borrowers would be required to comply with a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00:1.00 as of the end of each relevant fiscal quarter, and would be required to continue to comply with these requirements until the borrowers have borrowing availability in excess of this threshold for 60 consecutive days. Since the Company had borrowing availability in excess of this threshold from December 31, 2016 through September 30, 2017, the Company was not required to comply with the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio covenant during the quarter ended September 30, 2017.
The Third ARLS Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, including limitations on our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to: incur additional debt; pay dividends or other restricted payments; make investments; engage in transactions with affiliates; create liens on assets; and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries. The Third ARLS Agreement also contains customary reporting and other affirmative covenants. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2017.
Voluntary prepayments of amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility are permitted at any time, without premium or penalty, other than (to the extent applicable) customary LIBOR breakage charges and the aforementioned prepayment penalty.
The Third ARLS Agreement requires the borrowers to make mandatory prepayments upon the receipt of insurance or condemnation proceeds in respect of the revolving credit facility’s priority collateral.
The Third ARLS Agreement includes customary events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods) which include, among others:
•nonpayment of obligations when due;
•breach of covenants or other agreements in the Third ARLS Agreement;
•a change of control; and
•defaults in payment of certain other indebtedness, including the term loan credit facility.
12. Income Taxes
We file federal and state income tax returns in the U.S. and income tax returns in foreign jurisdictions. With a few minor exceptions, we are no longer subject to income tax examinations by any of the taxing jurisdictions for years prior to 2013. We currently have one foreign income tax examination in process.
As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, unrecognized tax benefits related to federal, state and foreign jurisdictions were $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively; all of which may impact our effective tax rate, if recognized. The domestic unrecognized tax benefits are netted against their related noncurrent deferred tax assets that are carried forward as net operating losses and tax credits. When appropriate, we accrue penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits through income tax expense. Included in the unrecognized tax benefits is $0.2 million of interest and penalties as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we released $0.2 million of tax reserves associated with items falling outside the statue of limitations and the closure of certain tax years for examination purposes. We are not aware of any events that could occur within the next twelve months that would have an impact on the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would require a reserve.
At September 30, 2017, due to cumulative losses and other factors, we continue to carry valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets primarily in the United Kingdom and Luxembourg. Additionally, we continue to carry valuation allowances related to certain state deferred assets that we believe to be more likely than not to expire before they can be utilized. We evaluate the need for valuation allowances in each of our jurisdictions on a quarterly basis.

14. Derivative Contracts
We use forward exchange contracts to hedge certain of our foreign currency transaction exposures. We estimate our projected revenues and purchases in certain foreign currencies and may hedge a portion of the anticipated long or short positions. The contracts typically run from one month up to eighteen months. As of September 30, 2017, we did not have any derivatives designated as hedging instruments; therefore, our forward foreign exchange contracts have been marked-to-market and the fair value of contracts recorded in the condensed consolidated Balance Sheet with the offsetting non-cash gain or loss recorded in cost of revenue in our consolidated Statement of Income. We do not hold or issue foreign exchange options or forward contracts for trading purposes. Our forward foreign exchange contracts are subject to a master netting agreement. We record assets and liabilities relating to our forward foreign exchange contracts on a gross basis in our condensed consolidated Balance Sheet.
The following table summarizes the notional amount of our open foreign exchange contracts:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| September 30, 2017 | | December 31, 2016 |
| U.S. $ Equivalent | | U.S. $ Equivalent Fair Value | | U.S. $ Equivalent | | U.S. $ Equivalent Fair Value |
Commitments to buy or sell currencies | $ | 5,389 |
| | $ | 5,723 |
| | $ | 18,593 |
| | $ | 17,213 |
|
We consider the impact of our credit risk on the fair value of the contracts, as well as our ability to honor obligations under the contract.
The Company entered into an interest rate swap contract to fix the interest rate on an initial aggregate amount of $80.0 million thereby reducing exposure to interest rate changes. The interest rate swap has a floor rate of 2.07% and an all-in rate of 8.07%, and an effective date of June 30, 2017 and a maturity date of April 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2017, the interest rate swap contract was not designated as a hedging instrument; therefore, our interest rate swap contract has been marked-to-market and the fair value of the contract recorded in the condensed consolidated Balance Sheet with the offsetting gain or loss recorded in interest and other expense in our condensed consolidated Statement of Income.

16. Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefit Plans
We sponsor pension plans that cover certain hourly and salaried employees in the United States and United Kingdom. Each of the plans are frozen to new participants. Our policy is to make annual contributions to the plans to fund the normal cost as required by local regulations. In addition, we have a post-retirement benefit plan for certain U.S. operations, retirees and their dependents.
The components of net periodic (benefit) cost related to pension and other post-retirement benefit plans is as follows:

We expect to contribute approximately $2.9 million to our pension plans and our other post-retirement benefit plans in 2017. As of September 30, 2017, $2.2 million of contributions have been made to our pension and other post-retirement plans.
On November 19, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company approved adjustments to the Company’s manufacturing footprint and capacity utilization, and reductions to selling, general and administrative costs. We expect the costs associated with restructuring activities to total $6.5 million to $7.6 million, and capital investments to total $1.0 million to $2.0 million. The restructuring and cost reduction actions began in the fourth quarter of 2015 and are expected to continue through 2017. Restructuring costs incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 were $2.0 million and $2.3 million, respectively. The following is a summary of some of our key actions.
Edgewood Facility
The closure of our Edgewood, Iowa facility and transfer of production to our Agua Prieta, Mexico facility was announced on December 3, 2015 and was substantially complete as of June 30, 2016.
Piedmont Facility
On May 2, 2016, the Company announced plans to consolidate its North American seat production into two North American facilities and cease seat production in its Piedmont, Alabama facility. The Company will continue to maintain a presence in Piedmont for our Aftermarket distribution channel. The restructuring plan is now complete.
Monona Facility
On July 19, 2016, the Company announced its intent to transfer all wire harness production from its manufacturing facility in Monona, Iowa to its facility in Agua Prieta, Mexico. On May 24, 2017, the Company elected to maintain production capability in the Monona facility as a result of a shortage of labor in our North American wire harness business. The Company released accrued employee separation charges of $0.4 million and incurred lease cancellation charges of $1.3 million.
Shadyside Facility
On July 21, 2016, the Company announced that it will close its Shadyside, Ohio facility that performs assembly and stamping activities. These activities will be transferred to alternative facilities or sourced to local suppliers. We anticipate the closure of the Shadyside facility to be complete by the end of 2017.
Ongoing Restructuring Expenditures
The table below summarizes the expenditures incurred to date and projected future expenditures associated with the restructuring activities approved on November 19, 2015:

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The discussion and analysis below describes material changes in financial condition and results of operations foras reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172022 and 2016.2021. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on2021 Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 (the “2016 Form 10-K”).10-K.
CompanyBusiness Overview
Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. (and its subsidiaries) isAt CVG, we deliver real solutions to complex design, engineering and manufacturing problems across a leading supplier of a full range of cab related productsglobal industries by innovating, constantly adding value, and systems for the global commercial vehicle market, including the MD/HD Truck market, the medium- and heavy-construction vehicle market, and the military, bus, agriculture, specialty transportation, mining, industrial equipment and off-road recreational markets.
treating our customer's bottom line as if it were our own.
We have manufacturing operations in the United States, Mexico, China, United Kingdom, Belgium, Czech Republic, Ukraine, China,Thailand, India and Australia. Our products are primarily sold in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.
Our products include Seats; Trim; cab structures, sleeper boxes, body panels and structural components; mirrors, wipers and controls; and electronic wire harness and panel assemblies designed for applications in commercial and other vehicles.
We are differentiated from automotive industry suppliers by our ability toprimarily manufacture low volume, customized products on a sequenced basis to meet the requirements of our customers.customer. We believe our products are used by a majority of the North American MD/HDCommercial Truck markets, many construction vehicle OEMs and certain leading global constructiontop e-commerce retailers.
Key Developments
In the first quarter of 2022, Russian military forces invaded Ukraine. We have approximately 1,200 employees in the Ukraine located in our facility near L'viv. While the facility was temporarily shut-down, we have resumed operations in L'viv and agriculture OEMs, which we believe creates an opportunity to cross-sell our products.
Business Overview
Foralso set up additional capacity in the Czech Republic. During both the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2022 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, our Ukraine facility represented approximately 42%1% of the Company's long-lived assets.
The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the retaliatory measures taken by the U.S., NATO and other countries have created global security concerns and economic uncertainty that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. We cannot be certain that international tensions will not affect our revenue was generated from sales to North American MD/HD Truck OEMs. Our remaining revenue was primarily derived from sales to OEMsfacility in the global construction equipment market, aftermarket, OE service organizations, military marketUkraine, including due to the Russian invasion, electrical outages, cyber-attacks and other specialty markets.
Demand forperiodic battles with separatists closer to our products is driven to a significant degree by preferences of the end-user of the vehicle, particularly with respect to heavy-duty trucks. Unlike the automotive industry, vehicle OEMs generally afford the end-user the ability to specify many of the component parts that will be used to manufacture the commercial vehicle, including a wide variety of cab interior styles and colors, brand and type of seats, type of seat fabric and color, and specific interior styling.facility. In addition, certain of our employees in Ukraine may be conscripted into the military and/or sent to fight in the ongoing conflict. Furthermore, most of our products manufactured in Ukraine are only utilizedshipped across the border from Ukraine to the Czech Republic for further delivery to our customers. If that border crossing were to be closed or restricted for any reason, or if our customers decide to stop ordering from us or shift orders to our competitors, we would experience a loss of the use of our Ukrainian facility, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we experienced shutdowns at our plant in heavy-duty trucks, such asShanghai, China due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused and continues to cause, significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruptions to our storage systems, sleeper boxes and privacy curtains. Accordingly, changes in demand for heavy-duty trucksbusiness. While we continue to operate our facilities, we may experience production slowdowns and/or shutdowns at our manufacturing facilities in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific as a result of government orders, our inability to obtain component parts from suppliers and/or inconsistent customer demand. In addition, many of our suppliers and customers may experience production slowdowns and/or shutdowns, which may further impact our business, sales and results of operation. The extent of the mixadverse effect of optionsthe COVID-19 pandemic on our business results depends on a vehicle can havenumber of factors beyond our control.
While backlog continues to be strong in the truck markets, all markets we operate in were impacted by supply chain constraints which caused volatility on our customers' production schedules and had a greaternegative impact on our business than changes in the overall demand for commercial vehicles. To the extent that demand for higher content vehicles increases or decreases, our revenuesresults. Overall, we continued to experience global supply chain disruptions and gross profit will be impacted positively or negatively.
We generally compete for new business at the beginning of the development of a new vehicle platformsignificant inflation, including longer lead-times to procure parts from China and upon the redesign of existing programs. New platform development generally begins onedue to three years before the marketing of such models by our customers. Contract durations for commercial vehicle products generally extend for the entire life of the platform, which is typically five to seven years. Several of the major truck makers are in the process of upgrading their key truck platforms and we believe we have maintained our share of content in these platforms. We continue to pursue opportunities to expand our content.
Demand for our heavy-duty (or "Class 8") truck products is generally dependent on the number of new heavy-duty trucks manufactured in North America, which in turn is a function of general economic conditions, interest rates, changes in government regulations, consumer spending, fuel costs, freight costs, fleet operators' financial health and access to capital, used truck prices and our customers’ inventory levels. New heavy-duty truck demand has historically been cyclical and is particularly sensitive to the industrial sector of the economy, which generates a significant portion of the freight tonnage hauled by commercial vehicles. According to a October 2017 report by ACT Research, a publisher of industry market research, North American Class 8 production levels are expected to increase to 252,000 units in 2017 and then increase to 296,000 units in 2019 before decreasing to 281,000 units in 2022. We believe the demand for North American Class 8 vehicles in 2017 will be between 235,000 to 255,000 units. ACT Research estimates that the average age of active North American Class 8 trucks is 11.4 and 11.3 years in 2016 and 2017, respectively. As vehicles age, their maintenance costs typically increase. ACT Research forecasts that the vehicle age will decline as aging fleets are replaced.
North American medium-duty (or "Class 5-7") truck production steadily increased from 227,000 units in 2014 to 233,000 units in 2016. According to a October 2017 report by ACT Research, North American Class 5-7 truck production is expected to increase to 250,000 units in 2017 and then gradually increase to 275,000 units in 2022.
Demand for our construction and agricultural equipment products is dependent on vehicle production. Demand for new vehicles in the global construction and agricultural equipment market generally follows certain economic conditions around the world. Our products are primarily used in the medium- and heavy-duty construction equipment markets (vehicles weighing over 12 metric tons). Demand in the medium- and heavy-duty construction equipment market is typically related to the level of large scale infrastructure development projects such as highways, dams, harbors, hospitals, airports and industrial development, as well as activity in the mining, forestryport backups, labor inflation, chip shortages, steel and other raw material based industries. We believe the construction markets we serve in Europe, Asia,inflation, and North America are improving. Global agriculture markets may be stabilizing.
Our Long-Term Strategy
Our long-term strategy is to grow organically by product, geographic region and end market. Our products are Seats, Trim, wire harnesses, structures, wipers, mirrors and office seats. We expect to realize some end market diversification in truck and bus in Asia-Pacific and trim in Europe, with additional diversification weighted toward the agriculture market, and to a lesser extent the construction market. We intend to allocate resources consistent with our strategy; and more specifically, consistent with our product portfolio, geographic region and end market diversification objectives. We periodically evaluate our long-term strategy in response to significant changes in our business environment and other factors.
Although our long-term strategy is an organic growth plan, we will consider opportunistic acquisitions to supplement our product portfolio, and to enhance our ability to serve our customers in our geographic end markets.
Strategic Footprint
We review our manufacturing footprint in the normal course to, among other considerations, provide a competitive landedfreight cost to our customers. In November 2015, the Company announced a restructuring and cost reduction plan, which is expected to lower operating costs by $8 million to $12 million annually when fully implemented at the end of 2017. As partincreases. The impact of the Company's restructuring efforts, on July 19, 2016,pandemic, the Company announced it will transfer all wire harness production from its manufacturing facility in Monona, Iowa to its facility in Agua Prieta, Mexico. On May 24, 2017, the Company elected to maintain production capability in the Monona, Iowa facility as a result of a shortage of labor in our North American wire harness business. Additionally, the Company established a new facility in Mexico with better access to labor. The labor shortagerelated economic recovery and footprint adjustment in our North American wire harness business are collectively referred to as the "NA Footprint Adjustment". Notwithstanding the decision to maintain production capability in the Monona facility and to establish additional production capacity elsewhere in Mexico, the Company expects to achieve its previously disclosed $8 million to $12 million of annual savings from its cost reduction and restructuring efforts.
At the time of the November 2015 announcement of facility restructuring actions, the Company estimated pre-tax costs of $11 million to $16 million. This range of pre-tax restructuring costs, net of related income, has been lowered to $7 million to $8 million. Pre-tax expenditures associated with the restructuring actions announced in November 2015 were approximately $1 million in the year ended December 31, 2015, approximately $4 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, and are expectedglobal inflationary pressures continue to be $2 millionuneven from period to $3 million for year ended December 31, 2017. The majority of these costs are employee-related separation costsperiod and other costs associated withacross our global footprint based on local and regional outbreaks. We continue to proactively monitor, assess and minimize to the transfer ofextent reasonably possible disruptions and delays in production due to labor shortages or customer schedules, focus on cost control and subsequent closure of facilities, offset by gains on the sale of long-lived assets.recovery through pricing adjustments, and take reasonable measures to protect our workforce.

Revenues. The increase in consolidated revenues resulted from:
•a $26.3$39.1 million, or 42.2%28.5%, increase in OEM North American MD/HD Truck revenues;OEM;
•a $14.9$37.6 million, or 48.5%72.7%, decrease in warehouse automation revenues;
•a $1.8 million, or 3.9%, increase in construction equipmentaftermarket and OES revenues; and
•a $3.5$8.5 million, or 5.9%,172.4% increase in other revenues.
Third quarter 20172022 revenues were favorablyunfavorably impacted by foreign currency exchange translation of $1.7$6.5 million, which is reflected in the change in revenues above. The increase in revenues is primarily driven by increased pricing to offset material cost increases and volume, offset by volume decrease in Warehouse Automation.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $6.2The $3.3 million or 32.9%, to $25.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $18.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Includeddecrease in gross profit is primarily attributable to the decrease in warehouse automation revenues and the cost of revenues, which consists primarily of raw materials and purchased components for our products, wages and benefits for our employees and overhead expenses such as manufacturing supplies, facility rent and utility costs related to our operations. Cost of revenue increased $38.5$15.1 million, or 28.6%7.2%, resulting fromas a result of an increase in raw material and purchased component costs of $31.5$12.1 million, an increase in wages and benefits of $4.2 million,or 8.7%, and an increase in labor and overhead costsexpenses of $2.8 million. The increase in gross profit is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volume partially offset by rising commodity prices, product launch costs and near term costs associated with the sharp acceleration in North American truck build. Also adversely impacting cost of revenue is the impact of the NA Footprint Adjustment. The adverse impact of the NA Footprint Adjustment on third quarter results was approximately $2 million; we expect the impact in the second half of the year to be at the low end of the previously disclosed range of $3$3.0 million, to $6 million. Additionally, third quarter 2017 results included $0.4 million in charges relating to facility restructuring and other related costs compared to $1.5 million in the third quarter 2016.or 4.3%. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit margin was 12.7%10.7% for the three months ended September 30, 20172022 compared to 12.3%12.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2016.2021. The decrease in gross profit margin is primarily due to global supply chain and market disruptions which have resulted in increased labor costs, raw material inflation, and freight cost increases. The three months ended September 30, 2022 results include charges of $0.6 million associated with the restructuring program.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A”) consist primarily of wages and benefits and other expenses such as Contingent Consideration, marketing, travel, legal, audit, rent and utility costs which are not directly associated with the manufacturing of our products. Selling, generalSG&A expenses decreased $1.5 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to lower incentive compensation and administrativehealth care expense. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expense was 6.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 7.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Other (Income) Expense. Other expenses were $14.1increased $2.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021 due primarily to partial settlement of the Company's U.S. Pension Plan liabilities of $1.1 million as well as an unfavorable change in foreign currency of $0.4 million.
Interest Expense. Interest associated with our debt was $2.8 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 20172022 and 2016.
Interest and Other Expense. Interest, associated with2021, respectively. The increase in interest expense primarily related to higher base interest rates on our variable rate debt and other expense was $3.5a higher average debt balance during the respective comparative period.
Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. An income tax provision of $1.3 million and $4.8$2.4 million were recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The period over period change in income tax was primarily attributable to a $5.1 million decrease in pre-tax income versus the prior year period.
Net Income (loss). Net income was $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The decrease is primarily the result of less outstanding debt.
Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. An income tax provision of $2.4 million and income tax benefit of $1.5 million was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The period over period change in the tax provision resulted primarily from the increase in pre-tax earnings, the mix of income between our U.S. and non-U.S. locations and earnings or losses in certain foreign tax jurisdictions which were no longer subject2022 compared to valuation allowances in the quarter ended September 30, 2017.
Net Income. Net income was $4.8 million and $1.1$7.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.2021. The increasedecrease in net income is attributedattributable to the factors noted above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows
Our primary sources of liquidity during2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2017 2021, consistent with the prior year amount on a percent of sales basis.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $11.6 million of outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility, $38.7 million of cash and $137.2 million of availability under the revolving credit facility, resulting in total liquidity of $175.9 million.
Our primary sources of liquidity as of September 30, 2022 were cash reserves and availability under our revolving credit facility. We believe that these sources of liquidity will provide adequate funds for our working capital needs, planned capital expenditures and servicing of our debt throughservice throughout the next twelve months. However, no assurance can be given that this will be the case. We did not borrow under our revolving credit facility during the nine months ended
As of September 30, 2017.
For the nine months ended2022, cash of $35.0 million was held by foreign subsidiaries. The Company had a $0.5 million deferred tax liability as of September 30, 2017, net cash used in operations was $2.3 million compared to net cash provided by operations of $50.2 million2022 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Netexpected future income tax implications of repatriating cash used in operationsfrom the foreign subsidiaries for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 is due primarily to an increase in investment in working capital associated with the increased revenues and changes in other operating activities.which no indefinite reinvestment assertion has been made.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, net cash used for investing activities was $10.0 million compared to $5.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. In 2017, we expect capital expenditures to be at the low end of the previously disclosed range of $14 million to $16 million, of which we have incurred approximately $11 million through September 30, 2017.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, net cash used for financing activities was $70.4 million compared to no financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 is attributable to the debt refinancing completed in the second quarter of 2017.
As of September 30, 2017, cash held by foreign subsidiaries was $38.2 million. If we were to repatriate any portion of these funds to the U.S., we would accrue and pay the appropriate withholding and income taxes on amounts repatriated. Our expectation is to use the cash to fund the growth of our foreign operations.
Debt and Credit Facilities
The debt and credit facilities described in Note 11 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" are incorporated in this section by reference.
Covenants and Liquidity
On May 12, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment to increase its existing senior secured credit facilities to $325 million from $275 million consisting of a $175 million Term Loan A and a $150 million Revolving Credit Facility. The amendment provides the Company with additional capital flexibility to execute upon its transformation and growth initiatives. As part of the amended terms of the agreement, the maturity date of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities has been extended by twelve months to May 12, 2027, the interest rate decreased by 50 bps at various leverage ratios based on SOFR, and the maximum consolidated total leverage ratio increased from 3.25x to 3.75x until December 31, 2022 with a quarterly step down of 25 bps to 3.00x leverage by September 30, 2023 and remain at this level thereafter. Further, separate from the Company’s annual $35 million capital spending cap, a one-time $45 million capital project basket was included in the amendment. All other key provisions, including the $75 million accordion, acquisition holiday, and other baskets remain unchanged.
Our ability to comply with the covenants in the TLS Agreement and the Third ARLSCredit Agreement, as discussed in note 11,Note 4, Debt, of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements may be affected in the future by economic or business conditions beyond our control. Based on our current forecast, we believe that we will be able to maintain compliance with the financial maintenance covenantcovenants and the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant if applicable, and other covenants in the TLS Agreement and the Third ARLSCredit Agreement for the next twelve months; however, no assurances can be given that we will be able to comply. We base our forecasts on historical experience, industry forecasts and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. If actual results are substantially different than our current forecast, or if we domay not realize a significant portion of our planned cost savings or sustain sufficient cash or borrowing availability, we could be requiredable to comply with our financial covenants,covenants.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with such financial covenants. If we do not comply with the financial and other covenantsaccounting principles generally accepted in the TLS Agreement andUnited States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). For a comprehensive discussion of our significant accounting policies, see "Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies", to our consolidated financial statements in Item 8 in our 2021 Form 10-K.
Critical accounting estimates are those that are most important to the Third ARLS Agreement, and we are unable to obtain necessary waivers or amendments from the lenders, we would be in defaultportrayal of the TLS Agreement and be precluded from borrowing under the Third ARLS Agreement, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and liquidity. If we are unable to borrow underresults. These estimates require management's most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the Third ARLS Agreement, we will need to meetestimate matters that are inherently uncertain. We review the development, selection, and disclosure of our capital requirements using other sources and alternative sources of liquidity may not be available on acceptable terms. In addition, if we do not complycritical accounting estimates with the financial and other covenantsAudit Committee of our board of directors. For information about critical accounting estimates, see Critical Accounting Estimates in the TLS Agreement and the Third ARLS Agreement, the lenders could declare an event of default under the TLS Agreement and the Third ARLS Agreement, and our indebtedness thereunder could be declared immediately due and payable. The TLS Agreement and the Third ARLS Agreement contain cross default provisions. Any of these events would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and liquidity.
We believe that cash on hand, cash flow from operating activities together with available borrowings under the Third ARLS Agreement will be sufficient to fund anticipated working capital, capital spending, certain strategic initiatives, and debt service requirements for at least the next 12 months. Additionally, the Company has the ability under the Term Loan Facility to increase borrowings by an additional $20 million, or more if certain total leverage ratio requirements are met. No assurance can be given, however, that this will be the case.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our senior management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure
We evaluated, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation,as of September 30, 2022. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures designedwere effective as of September 30, 2022 to ensureprovide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in theour reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as well as other key members of our management. Based upon the disclosure controls evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of September 30, 2017 our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.There were no changes during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or isare reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls.Controls. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of error or mistake. Controls also can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.ITEM 1 Legal Proceedings:Proceedings
We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including, but not limited to, workers’ compensationproduct liability claims, OSHA investigations, employment disputes, unfair labor practice charges, customer and supplier disputes, service provider disputes, product liabilityexaminations by taxing authorities, employment disputes, workers’ compensation claims, unfair labor practice charges, OSHA investigations, intellectual property disputes and environmental claims arising out of the conduct of our businesses and examinations by the Internal Revenue Service.businesses. Based upon the information available to management and discussions with legal counsel, it is the opinion of management that the ultimate outcome of the various legal actions and claims that are incidental to our business are not expected to have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations, stockholders' equity or cash flows; however, such matters are subject to many uncertainties and the outcomes of individual matters are not predictable with any degree of assurance.
Item 1A.ITEM 1A Risk Factors:Factors
There have been no material changes to ourYou should carefully consider the information in this Form 10-Q, the risk factors as discloseddiscussed in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" and other risks discussed in our 20162021 Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reportfilings with the SEC since December 31, 2021. These risks could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows. Our business also could be affected by risks that we are not presently aware of or that we currently consider immaterial to our operations.
We face risks related to heightened inflation, recession, financial and credit market disruptions and other economic conditions
Our financial results, operations and prospects depend significantly on Form 10-Qworldwide economic and geopolitical conditions, the demand for our products, and the quarter ended September 30, 2017.financial condition of our customers and suppliers. Economic weakness and geopolitical uncertainty have in the past resulted, and may result in the future, in reduced demand for products resulting in decreased sales, margins and earnings. In 2022, the countries in which we operate experienced significantly heightened inflationary pressures which we expect to continue into 2023. We may not be able to fully mitigate the impact of inflation through price increases, productivity initiatives and cost savings, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, if the U.S. economy enters a recession, we may experience sales declines which could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
Similarly, disruptions in financial and/or credit markets may impact our ability to manage normal commercial relationships with our customers, suppliers and creditors. Further, in the event of a recession or threat of a recession, our customers and suppliers may suffer their own financial and economic challenges and as a result they may demand pricing accommodations, delay payment, or become insolvent, which could harm our ability to meet our customer demands or collect revenue or otherwise could harm our business. An economic or credit crisis could occur and impair credit availability and our ability to raise capital when needed. A disruption in the financial markets could impair our banking or other business partners, on whom we rely for access to capital. In addition, changes in tax or interest rates in the U.S. or other nations, whether due to recession, economic disruptions or other reasons, could have an adverse effect on our operating results. Economic weakness and geopolitical uncertainty may also lead us to impair assets, take restructuring actions or adjust our operating strategy and reduce expenses in response to decreased sales or margins. We may not be able to adequately adjust our cost structure in a timely fashion, which could have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition. Uncertainty about economic conditions may increase foreign currency volatility in markets in which we transact business, which could have an adverse effect on our operating results.
