Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking words, such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “estimate,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “target,” “plan” or other comparable words, or by discussions of strategy that may involve risks and uncertainties.
These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results including, but not limited to, risks and uncertainties with respect to: the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, including, without limitation, supply chain and logistics issues;issues and inflationary pressures; interest rate volatility; liabilities and restrictions imposed by the Company’s debt instruments, including the Company’s ability to comply with the applicable financial covenants related thereto;thereto or obtain any necessary amendments or waivers with respect to such financial covenants; market demand; competitive factors; supply constraints and shipping disruptions; material, logistics and energy costs, including the increased material costs resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic; inflation and deflation rates; the impact the conflict between Russia and Ukraine has on our business, financial condition or future results, including the duration and scope of such conflict, its impact on disruptions and inefficiencies in our supply chain and our ability to procure certain raw materials, as well as on our energy supply in Europe; technology factors; litigation; government and regulatory actions including the impact of any tariffs, quotas, or surcharges; the Company’s accounting policies; future trends; general economic and currency conditions, including recessionary conditions; various conditions specific to the Company’s business and industry; the success of the Company’s action plan, including the actual amount of savings and timing thereof; the success of the Company’s business improvement initiatives in Europe-Africa, including the amount of savings and timing thereof; the Company’s exposure to product liability claims from customers and end users, and the costs associated therewith; factors affecting the Company’s business that are outside of its control, including natural disasters and severe weather conditions (including those caused by climate change), pandemics, including the current COVID-19 pandemic, accidents and governmental actions; our ability to regain and remain in compliance with the New York Stock Exchange’s (“NYSE”) minimum market capitalization requirement; and other risks that are discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.2021. The risks described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deemed to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations or cash flows.
The cautionary statements set forth above should be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect the Company. We do not undertake any obligation to review or confirm analysts’ expectations or estimates or to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as otherwise required by law.
We disclose important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations implied by our forward-looking statements under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and elsewhere in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.2021. These cautionary statements qualify all forward-looking statements attributed to us or persons acting on our behalf. When we indicate that an event, condition or circumstance could or would have an adverse effect on us, we mean to include effects upon our business, financial and other conditions, results of operations, prospects and ability to service our debt.

HORIZON GLOBAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
Horizon Global Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Horizon” “Horizon Global,” “we,” “our,” or the “Company”) are a leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of a wide variety of high quality, custom-engineered towing, trailering, cargo management and other related accessory products primarily in the North American, European and African markets. These products are designed to support aftermarket, automotive original equipment manufacturers (“automotive OEMs”) and automotive original equipment servicers (“automotive OESs”) (collectively, “OEs”), retail, e-commerce and industrial customers within the agricultural, automotive, construction, horse/livestock, industrial, marine, military, recreational, trailer and utility markets. The Company groups its business into operating segments generally by the region in which sales and manufacturing efforts are focused. The Company’s operating segments are Horizon Americas and Horizon Europe-Africa. See Note 14,13, Segment Information, for further information on each of the Company’s operating segments.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.2021. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. It is management’s opinion that these condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including adjustments of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions. Managementassumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates, judgments, and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions made when accounting for items and matters such as, but not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, sales incentives, sales returns, impairment assessment of indefinite-lived intangible assets, recoverability of long-lived assets, income taxes (including deferred taxes and uncertain tax positions), share-basedstock compensation, the assessment of lower of cost or net realizable value on inventory, useful lives assigned to long-lived assets, and depreciation and amortization, estimates related to lease liability and operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) asset valuations, estimated future unrecoverable lease costs, legal and product liability matters, valuation of debt instruments and warrants, assets and obligations related to employee benefits, and the respective allocation methods, are reasonable based on information available at the time they are made. To the extent there are differences between these estimates and actual results, our consolidated financial statements may be materially affected.
Discussion of Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company has a history of recurring net operating losses and cash outflows from operations. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants in agreements governing its debt. However, based on the Company’s projected financial performance for the twelve-month period subsequent to the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company projects that it will not be in compliance with a financial covenant under the Company’s Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement, as defined in Note 7, Long-term Debt, as of March 31, 2023, which would result in an event of default. Such a default would allow the lender under the Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement to accelerate the maturity of the debt, which carries a balance of $225.0 million as of June 30, 2022, making it due and payable at that time. This would, in turn, result in cross-default of the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility, as defined in Note 7, Long-term Debt, which carries a balance of $73.9 million as of June 30, 2022. The Company does not have sufficient cash on hand or available liquidity that can be utilized to repay these outstanding amounts in the event of default.
In response to the potential covenant breach, the Company is in discussions with its lender to amend the terms of its financial covenant under the Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement. The Company has a history of successfully amending and extending credit agreements with its current lenders and believes it is probable such amendment will be completed. We believe that these actions will allow the Company to continue as a going concern and remain in compliance with our financial covenants for the twelve months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. New Accounting Pronouncements
NewAs of June 30, 2022, there have been no new accounting pronouncements not yetrecently issued or adopted
In May 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-04, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt - Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2021-04”). ASU 2021-04 provides guidance on modifications that have had or exchanges ofare reasonably likely to have a freestanding equity-classified written call option that is not within the scope of other accounting standards. Under this guidance, an entity should treat a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as an exchange of the original instrument for a new instrument. ASU 2021-04 provides further guidance on measuring the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange. ASU 2021-04 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing thematerial impact of this update on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 470-20, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” (“ASC 470-20”) for convertible instruments. Under ASU 2020-06, the embedded conversion features no longer are separated from the host contract for convertible instruments with conversion features that are not required to be accounted for as derivatives under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. For smaller reporting companies, ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. We are currently assessing the impact of this update on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation3. Inventories

4. Property and Equipment, Net

Total$69,660 $71,610 
The relief provided by this guidance is elective and applies to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform initiatives being undertaken in an effort to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. The optional amendments of this guidance are effective for all entities upon adoption. We are currently assessing the impact of this update on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
InDuring the three months ended June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss model guidance with a new method that reflects expected credit losses. Under this guidance, an entity would recognize an allowance for credit losses equal to its estimate of expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. In November 2019, the FASB extended the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies. As a result, ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years,30, 2022 and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Accounting pronouncements recently adopted
There were no new accounting pronouncements adopted during2021, depreciation expense was $3.4 million and $3.6 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2021.2022 and 2021, depreciation expense was $6.8 million and $7.8 million, respectively.
3. Revenues5. Other Intangible Assets
The Company disaggregates net sales from contracts with customers by major sales channel. The Company determined that disaggregating its net sales into these categories best depicts how the nature, amount, timing,Gross carrying amounts and uncertaintyaccumulated amortization of revenue and cash flowsother intangible assets are affected by economic factors. The automotive OEM channel represents sales to automotive vehicle manufacturers. The automotive OES channel primarily represents sales to automotive vehicle dealerships. The aftermarket channel represents sales to automotive installers and warehouse distributors. The retail channel represents sales to direct-to-consumer retailers. The e-commerce channel represents sales to retailers whose customers utilize the Internet to purchase the Company’s products. The industrial channel represents sales to non-automotive manufacturers and dealers of agricultural equipment, trailers, and other custom assemblies. The other channel represents sales that do not fit into a category described above and these sales are considered ancillary to the Company’s core operating activities.as follows:

In February 2017, the Company completed a public offering of 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $125.0 million. Interest is payable on January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on July 1, 2017. The Convertible Notes are convertible into 5,005,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, based on an initial conversion price of $24.98 per share. The Convertible Notes will mature on July 1, 2022 unless earlier converted. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into convertible note hedge transactions (the “Convertible Note Hedges”) in privately negotiated transactions with certain of the underwriters or their affiliates (in this capacity, the “option counterparties”). The Convertible Note Hedges provide the Company with the option to acquire, on a net settlement basis, 5,005,000 shares of its common stock, which is equal to the number of shares of common stock that notionally underlie the Convertible Notes, at a strike price of $24.98, which corresponds to the conversion price of the Convertible Notes.

Upon conversion by the holders,three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company may elect to settle such conversion in shares of its common stock, cash, or a combination thereof. Because the Company may elect to settle conversion in cash, the Company separated the Convertible Notes into their liability and equity components by allocating the issuance proceeds to each of those components in accordance with ASC 470-20. The Company first determined the fair value of the liability component by estimating the value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component. The Company then deducted that amount from the issuance proceeds to arrive at a residual amount, which represents the equity component. The Company accounted for the equity component as a debt discount (with an offset to paid-in capital in excess of par value). The debt discount created by the equity component is being amortized as additional non-cashrecognized interest expense using the effective interest method over the contractual term of the Convertible Notes ending on July 1, 2022.

9. Leases
The Company leases certain facilities, automobiles and equipment under non-cancellable operating leases. Our leases have remaining lease terms of one to eightseven years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to five years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within one year. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Most leases include one or more options to renew. The exercise of lease renewal options is typically at the Company’s sole discretion; therefore, the majority of renewals to extend the lease terms are not included in the Company’s right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities as they are not reasonably certain of exercise. The Company regularly evaluates the renewal options and when they are reasonably certain of exercise, the Company includes the renewal period in the lease term. The Company combines lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for as a single lease component as the Company has elected the practical expedient to group lease and non-lease components for all leases. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Refer to Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, for more information.

See Note 7, Long-term Debt, for additional information on the Company has elected a policy to assume that the principal portionretirement of the Company’s Convertible Notes, as described in Note 8, Long-term Debt, is settled in cash and the conversion premium is settled in shares. Therefore, the Company has adopted a policy of calculating the diluted loss per share effect of the Convertible Notes using the treasury stock method. As a result, the dilutive effect of the Convertible Notes is limited to the conversion premium, which is reflected in the calculation of diluted loss per share as if it were a freestanding written call option on the Company’s shares. Using the treasury stock method, the warrants issued in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes are considered to be dilutive when they are in the money relative to the Company’s average common stock price during the period. The Convertible Note Hedges purchased in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes are always considered to be anti-dilutive and therefore do not impact the Company’s calculation of diluted loss per share.Notes.

Disaggregation of Sales
The Company disaggregates net sales from contracts with customers by major sales channel. The Company determined that disaggregating its net sales into these categories best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The aftermarket channel represents sales to automotive installers and warehouse distributors. The automotive OEM channel represents sales to automotive vehicle manufacturers. The automotive OES channel primarily represents sales to automotive vehicle dealerships. The retail channel represents sales to direct-to-consumer retailers. The e-commerce channel represents sales to retailers whose customers utilize the Internet to purchase the Company’s products. The industrial channel represents sales to non-automotive manufacturers and dealers of agricultural equipment, trailers, and other custom assemblies. The other channel represents sales that do not fit into a category described above and these sales are considered ancillary to the Company’s core operating activities.

14. Income Taxes
At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company makes an estimate of the annual effective income tax rate. Tax items included in the annual effective income tax rate are pro-rated for the full year and tax items discrete to a specific quarter are included in the effective income tax rate for that quarter. Effective tax rates vary from period to period as separate calculations are performed for those countries where the Company's operations are profitable and whose results continue to be tax-effected and for those countries where full deferred tax valuation allowances exist and are maintained. In determining the estimated annual effective tax rate, the Company analyzes various factors, including but not limited to, forecasts of projected annual earnings, taxing jurisdictions in which the pretax income and/or pretax losses will be generated, and available tax planning strategies.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the effective income tax rate was (2.0)% and (1.4)%, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the effective income tax rate was 59.3% and (20.4)%, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the effective income tax rate was (0.5)% and (0.2)%, respectively. The differences in the effective tax rate compared to the statutory tax rate isare attributable to the valuation allowance recorded in the U.S. and several foreign jurisdictions, which resulted in no income tax benefit recognized for jurisdictional pretax losses, and therefore, are excluded from the estimated effective tax rate.
The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis. In completing this evaluation, the Company considers all available evidence in order to determine whether, based on the weight of the evidence, a valuation allowance is necessary. Full valuation allowances that are recorded for deferred tax assets in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions will be maintained until sufficient positive evidence exists to reduce or eliminate them. The factors considered by management in its determination of the probability of the realization of the deferred tax assets include, but are not limited to, recent historical financial results, historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies. If, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded. The Company has recently experienced pre-tax losses. As of June 30, 2021,2022, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the recorded deferred tax assets will be realized.

Overview
Headquartered in Plymouth, Michigan, Horizon Global Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Horizon” “Horizon Global,” “we,” “our,” or the “Company”) are a leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of a wide variety of high-quality, custom-engineered towing, trailering, cargo management and other related accessory products primarily in the North American, European and African markets, primarily servicing the aftermarket, automotive original equipment manufacturers (“automotive OEMs”) and automotive original equipment servicers (“automotive OESs”) (collectively, “OEs”), retail, e-commerce and industrial channels, supporting our customers generally through a regional service and delivery model.
Critical factors affecting our ability to succeed include:
•Our ability to realize the expected future economic benefits resulting from the changes made to our manufacturing operations, distribution footprint and management team in recent years, including the implementation of operational improvement initiatives, implemented in 2019-2020, which are continuously ongoing to support margin expansion;
•Our ability to continue to manage our liquidity, including continuing to service our debt obligations and comply with the applicable financial covenants thereto, especially given our recent debt refinancing activities and capital structure alignment to support business growth and the Company’sour long-term strategic plan;
•Our ability to quickly and cost-effectively introduce new products to our customers and end-user market with a resulting streamlined customer service model and improved operating margins;
•Our ability to continue to successfully launch new products and customer programs to expand or realign our geographic coverage or distribution channels and realize desired operating efficiencies and product line or customer content penetration;
•Our ability to efficiently manage our cost structure more efficiently via global supply base management, internal sourcing and/or purchasing of materials, freight and logistics management, selective outsourcing of support functions, working capital management and a global approach to leverage our administrative functions; and
•Our ability to manage liquidity and other economic and business uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic that may result in future business disruption, including any mandated operating restrictions such as temporary facility closures.inflation and deflation rates, interest rate volatility, the ongoing global semiconductor shortage, transportation and other logistic constraints and the COVID-19 pandemic.
If we are unable to do any of the foregoing successfully, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely impacted.

Supplemental Analysis and Segment Information
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company’s management utilizes Adjusted EBITDA as the key measure of company and segment performance and for planning and forecasting purposes, as management believes this measure is most reflective of the operational profitability or loss of the Company and its operating segments and provides management and investors with information to evaluate the operating performance of its business and is representative of its performance used to measure certain of its financial covenants, further discussed in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section below. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income attributable to Horizon Global, which is the most directly comparable financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA that is prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, as determined and measured by Horizon Global, should also not be compared to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The Company also uses operating profit (loss) to measure stand-alone segment performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Horizon Global before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and before certain items, as applicable, such as severance, restructuring, relocation and related business disruption costs, gains (losses) on extinguishment of debt, extinguishment, impairment of goodwill and other intangibles, non-cash stock compensation, certain product liability and litigation claims, acquisition and integration costs, gains (losses) on business divestitures and other assets, debt issuance costs, board transition support and non-cash unrealized foreign currency remeasurement costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital and working capital requirements are funded through a combination of cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and various borrowings and factoring arrangements described below, including our asset-based Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below).Facility. As of June 30, 2021,2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, we had $12.9$10.4 million and $18.2$8.2 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents held at foreign subsidiaries. There may be country specific regulations, which may restrict or result in increased costs in the repatriation of these funds.
In March 2020, the Company, as guarantor, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Eclipse Business Capital LLC, formerly known as Encina Business Credit, LLC, (“Encina”), as agent for the lenders party thereto, and Horizon Global Americas Inc. and Cequent Towing Products of Canada Ltd., as borrowers (the “ABL Borrowers”). The Loan Agreement provides for an asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) in the maximum aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million subject to customary borrowing base limitations contained therein, and may be increased at the ABL Borrowers’ request in increments of $5.0 million, up to a maximum of five times over the life of the Revolving Credit Facility, for a total increase of up to $25.0 million. The Loan Agreement has been amended on several occasions that, among other things, increased the maximum credit available under the Revolving Credit Facility to $95.0 million. As of June 30, 2021, the Company2022, we had availability of $37.3$20.1 million under the Revolving Credit Facility and $11.8$16.0 million of cash and cash equivalents in the United States.
As of June 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, total cash and availability was $62.0$46.5 million and $83.4$39.2 million, respectively. The Company definesWe define cash and availability as cash and cash equivalents and amounts of cash accessible but undrawn from credit facilities.
During 2020, in response to the initial uncertain economic environment caused in part from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company pursued funding from available government programs and other sources of liquidity designed to strengthen its balance sheet and enhance financial flexibility. These sources included short-term loans, some of which are forgivable if certain conditions are met as well as entering into or modifying other arrangements. A summary of these actions is described below.
In April 2020, Horizon Global Company LLC (the “U.S. Borrower”), a direct U.S.-based subsidiary of the Company, received a loan from PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”) for $8.7 million, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP Loan”) under Division A, Title I of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act. The PPP Loan, which is in the form of a note dated April 18, 2020 issued by the U.S. Borrower, matures on April 18, 2022. Funds from the PPP Loan may be used for payroll, costs used to continue group health care benefits, rent and utilities. Under the terms of the PPP Loan, certain amounts may be forgiven if they are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act.
The Company submitted its PPP Loan application in good faith in accordance with the CARES Act and the guidance issued by the Small Business Administration (the “SBA”), including the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program’s Frequently Asked Questions. During 2020, the Company, in accordance with the final guidance issued by the United States Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”), met the need and sized based criteria of the program.
As of June 30, 2021, the Company has filed its application of loan forgiveness with PNC and the SBA for forgiveness of $8.0 million of $8.7 million of funds originally received. The potential loan forgiveness is determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payment of qualifying expenses over the 24 weeks after the loan proceeds were disbursed. The unforgiven portion of the loan has an interest rate of 1.0% per annum, and in July 2021, the note was amended to make the unforgiven portion payable over five years on a monthly basis. The Company has deferred interest payments until the Company’s application for forgiveness is completed in accordance with the guidance issued by the SBA and Treasury and the terms of the Company’s PPP Loan. While we currently believe that our use of the loan proceeds will meet the conditions for forgiveness of our PPP Loan, there can be no assurance that forgiveness for any portion of the PPP Loan will be obtained.
In April 2020, S.I.A.R.R. SAS (the “French Borrower”), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, received a loan from BNP Paribas (the “French Loan”) for $5.5 million. On February 17, 2021, the French Borrower entered into an amendment to the French Loan, which under the terms of the amendment, the repayment of the loan was modified to monthly repayments of principal and interest beginning April 2022 through April 2026, from the original maturity of April 9, 2021. In addition, the interest rate on the French Loan was amended to a rate of 1.0% per annum and interest is payable monthly beginning April 2021.
In March 2020, Westfalia-Automotive GmbH (“Westfalia”), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, was approved for a government payroll reimbursement program in Germany under the Kurzarbeitergeld (the “KUG”). The KUG is designed to reimburse employers for payroll costs incurred and paid to employees affected by the business disruption and government mandated operating restrictions in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic for the period March 1, 2020 through August 31, 2020. Westfalia was approved to receive reimbursement of certain costs for the period March 19, 2020 through August 31, 2020. The Company was reimbursed $3.3 million for qualifying payroll costs under terms of the KUG for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.

We believe the combination of these sources, as well as the changes to our capital structure following our recent refinancing activities as fully summarizeddescribed below, provides us with sources of both short-term and long-term liquidity that will enable usthe Company to meet material cash obligations as well as our working capital, capital expenditures and other funding requirements.requirements for at least the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future thereafter. Our ability to fund our working capital needs, debt payments and other obligations, and to comply with financial covenants, including borrowing base limitations under our Revolving Credit Facility, depends on our future operating performance and cash flow and many factors outside of our control, including the costs of raw materials, the state of the automotive accessories market and other macroeconomic conditions.
Discussion of Going Concern
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial and economic conditionsstatements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the extentsatisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company has a history of recurring net operating losses and durationcash outflows from operations. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants in agreements governing its debt. However, based on the Company’s projected financial performance for the twelve-month period subsequent to the date of the impactfiling of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company projects that it will not be in compliance with a financial covenant under the Company’s Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement, as defined below, as of March 31, 2023, which would result in an event of default. Such a default would allow the lender under the Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement to accelerate the maturity of the COVID-19 pandemic.debt, which carries a balance of $225.0 million as of June 30, 2022, making it due and payable at that time. This would, in turn, result in cross-default of the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility, which carries a balance of $73.9 million as of June 30, 2022. The Company does not have sufficient cash on hand or available liquidity that can be utilized to repay these outstanding amounts in the event of default.
In response to the potential covenant breach, the Company is in discussions with its lender to amend the terms of its financial covenant under the Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement. The Company has a history of successfully amending and extending credit agreements with its current lenders and believes it is probable such amendment will be completed. We believe that these actions will allow the Company to continue as a going concern and remain in compliance with our financial covenants for the twelve months from the issuance of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Outlook
Our business remains susceptible to economicmacroeconomic conditions that couldmay adversely affect our future results, including potential negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.current inflationary environment and increased energy prices, volatile interest rates, ongoing global semiconductor shortage, as well as transportation and other logistic constraints. The trend of customer orders in the economies that most significantly affect our demandconflict between Russia and Ukraine has been strong, including the United States and Europe. However, we have experienced rising pricing to certain raw materials, including steel, and while the Company endeavors to recover incremental input costs through pricing actions, the recoveries generally occur over time and are not guaranteed. In addition, recent macroeconomic factors, such asalso placed added constraints on shipping container availability, port congestion and the global microchip shortageautomotive supply chain that may adversely impact our business. These factors have resulted incontributed to a delay ofin receiving raw materialscertain critical components required to fulfill orders by the Company or some of our OE customers, which has resulted in retiming some customer orders to future periods. We also continue to experience elevated costs for certain raw materials, including steel, and while we endeavor to recover incremental input costs through pricing recovery initiatives, the recoveries generally occur over time and are not guaranteed. We also continue to monitor the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and potential impacts to our operations, employees, customers and other stakeholders, as well as prioritizing the health and safety of our employees. We continue to monitor these supply constraintsmacroeconomic factors and implement mitigating actions where possible, and remain committed to fulfilling and delivering our customers’ orders driven by the strong product demand we have experienced.customer orders.
We also remain focused on maintaining liquidity to fund our operations, while considering future maturities in our capital structure, which have been addressed and will continue to be addressed as the Company continues to execute upon itsour business plan and operational improvement initiatives in 2021.which are continuously ongoing. These initiatives were put in place to streamline and simplify itsour operations and provide a roadmap to achieve our strategic priorities of margin expansion, liquidity management and organic business growth.
We believe the unique strategic footprint we enjoy in our market space will benefit usthe Company as our OE customers continue to demonstrate a preference for stronger relationships with few suppliers. We believe that our strong brand positions,recognition, portfolio of product offerings, and existing customer relationships present a long-term opportunity for usthe Company and provide leverage to see balanced growth in OE, aftermarket and retail businesses. That position and brand recognition allows usthe Company flexibility to bring our products to market in various channels that we believe provide usthe Company the ability to leverage our current operational footprint to meet or exceed our customer demands.demand.
Impact of New Accounting Standards

Critical Accounting Policies
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Certain of our accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates that affect both the amounts and timing of the recording of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. These judgments are based on our historical experience, our evaluation of business and macroeconomic trends, and information from other outside sources, as appropriate.
There were no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies in Item 7,8, “Management’s DiscussionFinancial Statements and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsSupplementary Data,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.2021.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business, but we do not believe that any such claim or litigation is likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. For a description of risks related to various legal proceedings and claims, see the section entitled “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. For additional information regarding legal proceedings, refer to Note 10,11, Contingencies, included in Part I, Item 1, “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” within this Quarterlyour Annual Report on Form 10-Q.10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
A discussion of our risk factors, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, can be found in the section entitled “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. There have been no significant changes in our2021, which risk factors disclosedare supplemented with the disclosure below.
We are currently out of compliance with the New York Stock Exchange’s (“NYSE”) minimum market capitalization requirement and are at risk of the NYSE delisting our common stock, which would have an adverse impact on the trading volume, liquidity and market price of our common stock.
On July 25, 2022, we were notified by the NYSE that we were not in compliance with the continued listing standard set forth in Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because our 2020 Form 10-K.average market capitalization was less than $50 million over a consecutive 30 trading-day period and our stockholders’ equity was less than $50 million. We are taking actions to meet the continued listing standards of the NYSE to cure the market capitalization condition, which we expect will ultimately lead to a recovery of our common stock price and market capitalization. Our common stock could also be delisted if our average market capitalization over a consecutive 30 day-trading period is less than $15 million, in which case we would not have an opportunity to cure the deficiency, our common stock would be suspended from trading on the NYSE immediately, and the NYSE would begin the process to delist our common stock, subject to our right to appeal under NYSE rules. We cannot assure you that any appeal we undertake in these or other circumstances will be successful. While we are working to cure this potential deficiency and remain in compliance with this continued listing standard, there can be no assurance that we will be able to cure this potential deficiency or if we will cease to comply with another continued listing standard of the NYSE.
A delisting of our common stock from the NYSE could negatively impact us as it would likely reduce the liquidity and market price of our common stock; reduce the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our common stock; and negatively impact our ability to access equity markets and obtain financing.
