COMMERCIAL VEHICLE GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. (through its subsidiaries) is a leading supplier of electrical wire harnesses, seating systems, and a full range of other cab related products for the global commercial vehicle markets, including the medium- and heavy-duty truck ("MD/HD Truck"), medium- and heavy-construction vehicle, military, bus, agriculture, specialty transportation, mining, industrial equipment and off-road recreational markets. References herein to the "Company", "CVG", "we", "our", or "us" refer to Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
We are differentiated from automotive industry suppliers by our ability to manufacture low volume, customized products on a sequenced basis to meet the requirements of our customers. We believe our products are used by a majority of the North American MD/HD Truck and many medium- and heavy-duty construction vehicle original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), and to a lesser extent other makers of industrial equipment.
We have manufacturing operations in the United States, Mexico, China, United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Thailand, India and Australia. Our products are primarily sold in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.
We have prepared the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The information furnished in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and statements of financial position for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when read in conjunction with our fiscal
2018
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K ("2018 Form 10-K") as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2019. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts are in thousands, except share and per share amounts. Certain reclassifications to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations have been made pertaining to prior year non-service pension cost (benefit) presentation to conform to current year presentation.
S
EGMENTS
In the quarter ended December 31, 2018, we completed a strategic reorganization of our operations into
two
business segments, Electrical Systems and Global Seating. The reorganization allows the Company to better focus its business along product lines, as opposed to end markets, which the company believes will enhance the effectiveness of seeking growth opportunities and enhancing shareholder value. As a result of the strategic reorganization, we restated prior period segment information to conform to the current period segment presentation.
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that are evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is our President and Chief Executive Officer. Each of the segments consist of a number of manufacturing facilities. Certain of our facilities manufacture and sell products through both of our segments. Each manufacturing facility that sells products through both segments is reflected in the financial results of the segment that has the greatest amount of revenues from that manufacturing facility. Our segments are more specifically described below.
The Electrical Systems Segment manufactures and sells the following products:
•
Wire harness and panel assemblies primarily for the construction, agricultural, industrial, automotive, truck, mining and military industries in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific;
•
Trim primarily for the North America MD/HD Truck market;
•
Mirrors, wipers and controls primarily for the truck, bus, agriculture, construction, rail and military markets in North America and Europe;
•
Cab structures for the North American MD/HD Truck market; and
•
Aftermarket components in North America.
The Global Seating Segment manufactures and sells Seats as follows:
6
Table of Contents
•
Seats primarily to the MD/HD Truck, construction, agriculture and mining markets in North America, Asia-Pacific and Europe;
•
Office seating in Europe and Asia-Pacific; and
•
Aftermarket seats and components in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific.
Corporate expenses consist of certain overhead and shared costs that are not directly attributable to the operations of a segment. For purposes of business segment performance measurement, some of these costs that are for the benefit of the operations are allocated based on a combination of methodologies. The costs that are not allocated to a segment are considered stewardship costs and remain at corporate in our segment reporting.
2. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)". The ASU requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The Company anticipates the ASU will apply to its trade receivables and will not have a material impact to the reported value of such receivables. ASU No. 2018-19 - "Codification Improvements to Topic 326: Financial Instruments - Credit Losses" which provided further guidance on assessment of receivables for operating leases did not impact the Company. We expect to implement ASU No. 2016-13 on its effective date of January 1, 2020.
Accounting Pronouncements Implemented in the three months ended March 31, 2019
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting". The ASU changed the measurement date for determining the fair value of share awards to nonemployees to the grant date and requires the consideration of the probability of satisfying performance obligations in assessing the awards. The ASU did not have a material impact on our recognition of share-based payments for nonemployees.
Lease Accounting
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" followed by ASU No. 2018-11, "Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements", issued in July 2018. The ASU is intended to increase transparency and comparability among companies by recognizing lease assets and liabilities and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2019.
In accordance with ASU 2016-02, we elected not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term of twelve months or less and elected to not separate lease and non-lease components. We elected the transition method option under ASU 2018-11 with the package of practical expedients that permits the Company to: (a) not reassess whether expired or existing contracts contain leases, (b) not reassess lease classification for existing or expired leases and (c) not consider whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would be appropriate under the new standard. We recorded a right of use asset of approximately
$21.2 million
and a lease liability of approximately
$22.2 million
upon adoption. We also elected the option to apply the new leasing standard on the date of adoption and recognize a cumulative-effect transition adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption resulting in a cumulative effect as of January 1, 2019 of
$0.1 million
. Refer to footnote 11 for further details.
3. Revenue Recognition
Contractual Arrangements
Revenue is measured based on terms and considerations specified in contracts with customers. We have long-term contracts with some customers that govern overall terms and conditions accompanied by individual purchase orders that define specific order quantities and/or price. We have many customers that operate under terms outlined in purchase orders without a long-term contract. We generally do not have customer contracts with minimum order quantity requirements.
Amount and Timing of Revenue Recognition
The transaction price is based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring control of a product to the customer. This is defined in a purchase order or in a separate pricing arrangement and represents the stand-alone selling price. Our payment terms vary by the type and location of our customer and the products offered. None of the Company's contracts as of
March 31, 2019
, contained a significant financing component. We typically do not have multiple performance obligations requiring us to allocate a transaction price.
7
Table of Contents
We recognize revenue at the point in time when we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring control of a product to a customer, usually at a designated shipping point and in accordance with customer specifications. We make estimates for potential customer returns or adjustments based on historical experience, which reduce revenues.
Other Matters
Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are recorded in revenues and costs associated with outbound freight are generally accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of revenues. We generally do not provide for extended warranties or material customer incentives. Our customers typically do not have a general right of return for our products.
We had outstanding customer accounts receivable, net of allowances, of
$159.0 million
as of
March 31, 2019
and
$134.6 million
as of
December 31, 2018
. We generally do not have other assets or liabilities associated with customer contracts. In general, we do not make significant judgments or have variable consideration that impact our recognition of revenue.
Our products include electrical wire harnesses and panel assemblies; trim systems and components ("Trim"); cab structures and sleeper boxes; mirrors, wipers and controls; and seats and seating systems ("Seats"). We sell these products into multiple geographic regions including North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific and to multiple customer end markets including MD/HD Truck OEMs, Bus OEMs, Construction OEMs, the aftermarket and other markets. The nature, timing and uncertainty of our recognition of revenue and associated cash flows across the varying product lines, geographic regions and customer end markets are substantially consistent. Refer to footnote 15 for revenue disclosures by reportable segments.
4. Fair Value Measurement
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.
Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.
Our financial instruments consisted of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and our revolving credit facility. 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.
Foreign Currency Forward Exchange Contracts.
Our derivative assets and liabilities represent foreign exchange contracts that are measured at fair value using observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and counterparty credit risk. Based on the utilization of these inputs, the derivative assets and liabilities are classified as Level 2. To manage our risk for Mexican Pesos, we have entered into forward exchange contracts that are designated as cash flow hedge instruments, which are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The gains and losses as a result of the changes in fair value of the hedge contracts is deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss and recognized as an adjustment to Cost of Revenues in the period the related hedge transactions are recognized. Refer to footnote 16 for additional disclosures.
Interest Rate Swap Agreement.
To manage our exposure to variable interest rates in a cost-efficient manner, we have entered into interest rate swap agreements in which the Company agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount. These swaps are designed to mitigate changes in the interest rate of a portion of the outstanding borrowings. The Company entered into a series of interest rate swaps to initially cover
$80 million
of its outstanding debt under the senior secured term loan facility. The Company expects these derivatives to remain effective during the remaining term of the swaps and will record the impact in interest and other expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Refer to footnote 16 for additional disclosures.
The fair values of our derivative assets and liabilities are categorized as follows:

6. Share-Based Compensation
The company's outstanding share-based compensation is comprised solely of restricted stock awards.
Restricted Stock Awards
–- Restricted stock awards are a grant of shares of common stock that may not be sold, encumbered or disposed of and that may be forfeited in the event of certain terminations of employment or in the case of the board of directors, a separation for cause, prior to the end of a restricted period set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. A participant granted restricted stock generally has all of the rights of a stockholder, unless the Compensation Committee determines otherwise.

7. Performance Awards
Awards, defined as cash, shares or other awards, may be granted to employees under the Amended and Restated Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 EIP”). The cash award is earned and payable based upon the Company’s relative Total Shareholder Return in terms of ranking as compared to the Peer Group over a
three
-year period (the “Performance Period”). Total Shareholder Return is determined by the percentage change in value (positive or negative) over the applicable measurement period as measured by dividing (A) the sum of (i) the cumulative value of dividends and other distributions paid on the Common Stock for the applicable measurement period, and (ii) the difference (positive or negative) between each such company’s starting stock price and ending stock price, by (B) the starting stock price. The award is to be paid out at the end of the Performance Period in cash only if the employee is employed through the end of the Performance Period. If the employee is not employed during the entire Performance Period, the award will be forfeited. These grants are accounted for as cash settlement awards for which the fair value of the award fluctuates based on the change in Total Shareholder Return in relation to the Peer Group. The following table summarizes performance awards granted in the form of cash awards under the 2014 EIP in November

8. Accounts Receivable
Trade accounts receivable are stated at current value less allowances, which approximates fair value. We review our receivables on an ongoing basis to ensure that they are properly valued and collectible.Returns and allowances are used to record estimates of returns or allowances resulting from quality, delivery, discounts or other issues affecting the value of receivables. This amount is estimated based on historical trends and current market conditions, with the offset to revenues.
The allowance for doubtful accounts is used to record the estimated risk of loss related to our customers’ inability to pay. This allowance is maintained at a level that we consider appropriate based on factors that affect collectability, such as the financial health of our customers, historical trends of charge-offs and recoveries and current economic market conditions. As we monitor our receivables, we identify customers that may have payment problems, and we adjust the allowance accordingly, with the offset to selling, general and administrative expense. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when recovery is considered remote.
9. Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or market. Cost includes applicable material, labor and overhead. Inventories consisted of the following:

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 expected market volumes. Excess and obsolete provisions may vary by product depending upon future potential use of the product.
10. 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 in the second fiscal quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill of
$5.2 million
is attributable to the Global Seating Segment and
$2.4 million
to the Electrical Systems Segment. In conducting the qualitative assessment, we consider relevant events and circumstances that affect the fair value or carrying amount of the reporting unit. Such events and circumstances could include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance, entity and reporting unit specific events, cost factors and capital market pricing. We consider the extent to which each of the adverse events and circumstances identified affect the comparison of the reporting unit’s fair value with its carrying amount. We place more weight on the events and circumstances that most affect the reporting unit’s fair value or the carrying amount of its net assets. These factors are all considered by management in reaching its conclusion about whether to perform the first step of the impairment test. No impairment was recorded as a result of our second quarter 2018 assessment.
The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill are as follows:

11. Leases
The Company leases 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. Our leases have remaining lease terms of
one
year to
eight
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.
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" which requires the recognition of the right-of-use assets and related operating and finance lease liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. We adopted Topic 842 using a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at January 1, 2019. As discussed in footnote 2, we elected to exclude leases for periods of 12 months or less and elected to apply the package of practical expedients.

Table of Contents
As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. We utilize an incremental borrowing rate, which is reflective of the specific term of the leases and economic environment of each geographic region, and apply a portfolio approach for certain machinery and equipment that have consistent terms in a specific geographic region.
Anticipated future lease costs, which are based in part on certain assumptions to approximate minimum annual rental commitments under non-cancelable leases, are as follows:

12. Commitments and Contingencies
Warranty —
We are subject to warranty claims for products that fail to perform as expected due to design or manufacturing deficiencies. Customers generally require their outside suppliers to guarantee or warrant their products and bear the cost of repair or replacement of such products. 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 reserve for estimated future customer warranty costs based on historical trends and current economic factors.

Leases
— As disclosed in Note 11, 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. As of
March 31, 2019
, our equipment leases did not provide for any material guarantee of a specified portion of residual values.

Table of Contents
Litigation —
We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including but not limited to workers' compensation claims, OSHA investigations, employment disputes, unfair labor practice charges, customer and supplier disputes, service provider disputes, product liability claims, intellectual property disputes, and environmental claims arising out of the conduct of our businesses and examinations by the Internal Revenue Service.
Management believes that the Company maintains adequate insurance or that we have established reserves for issues that are probable and estimable in amounts that are adequate to cover reasonable adverse judgments not covered by insurance. 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, 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.
Debt Payments —
As disclosed in footnote 13, the TLS Agreement requires the Company to repay a fixed amount of principal on a quarterly basis, make mandatory prepayments of excess cash flows and voluntary prepayments that coincide with certain events.
The following table provides future minimum principal payments due on long-term debt for the next five years. A mandatory prepayment of
$4.2 million
pursuant to the excess free cash flow sweep provision of the TLS Agreement was made during the
three months ended March 31, 2019
. The existing long-term debt agreements mature in 2023:

At
March 31, 2019
we had

$1.6 million
and we had availability of
$63.4 million
. The unamortized deferred financing fees associated with our revolving credit facility of
$0.8 million
and
$0.7 million
as of
March 31, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
, respectively, are being amortized over the remaining life of the agreement. At
December 31, 2018
we did not have borrowings under the revolving credit facility and had outstanding letters of credit
$1.7 million
.
The Third ARLS Agreement contains customary restrictive, financial maintenance and reporting covenants that are described in footnote 7 in our
2018
Form 10-K. Since the Company had borrowing availability in excess of the greater of (i)
$5,000,000
or (ii) ten percent (
10%
) of the revolving commitments from
December 31, 2018
through
March 31, 2019
the Company was not required to comply with the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio covenant during the quarter ended
March 31, 2019
. The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants as of
March 31, 2019
.
14. Income Taxes
We file federal income tax returns in the U.S. and income tax returns in various U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions. In the U.S., we are generally no longer subject to tax assessment for tax years prior to 2014. In our major foreign jurisdictions including China, Czech Republic, Mexico and the United Kingdom, our income tax filings are generally subject to examination for three to five years.
As of
March 31, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
, the Company had
$0.6 million
and
$0.5 million
, respectively, in unrecognized tax benefits related to U.S. federal, state and foreign jurisdictions which may impact our effective tax rate, if recognized. The domestic unrecognized tax benefits are netted against their related deferred tax assets. We accrue penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits through income tax expense. Included in the unrecognized tax benefits is
$0.3 million
of interest and penalties as of
March 31, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
. We are not aware of any events that could occur within the next twelve months that would have a material impact on the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would require a reserve.
At
March 31, 2019
, due to cumulative losses and other factors, we continue to carry valuation allowances against certain deferred tax assets, primarily in the United Kingdom and Luxembourg. Additionally, we continue to carry valuation allowances related to certain state deferred tax assets that we believe are 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.
15. Segment Reporting
As disclosed in footnote 10 of our
2018
Form 10-K, we completed a strategic reorganization of our operations into
two
business segments, Electrical Systems and Global Seating. As a result of the strategic reorganization, we restated prior period segment information to conform to the current period segment presentation.
The following tables present segment revenues, gross profit, depreciation and amortization expense, selling, general and administrative expenses, operating income, capital expenditures and other items for the
three months ended March 31, 2019

16. Derivative Contracts
We use foreign exchange contracts to hedge some 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 our foreign exchange contracts are designated as hedging instruments; the fluctuations in fair value are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets until the contracts mature; at which time the gains and losses are recognized in cost of revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. We do not hold or issue foreign exchange options or foreign exchange contracts for trading purposes. Our foreign exchange contracts are subject to a master netting agreement. We record assets and liabilities relating to our foreign exchange contracts on a gross basis in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The following table summarizes the notional amount of our open foreign exchange contracts:

On June 30, 2017, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to fix the interest rate on an initial aggregate amount of
$80.0 million
of the Term Loan Facility 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%
, with a maturity date of April 30, 2022. As of
March 31, 2019
, the interest rate swap agreement was not designated as a hedging instrument; therefore, our interest rate swap agreement has been marked-to-market and the fair value of the agreement recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with the offsetting gain or loss recorded in interest and other expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

18. Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefit Plans
We sponsor various defined pension and other post-retirement benefit 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 practice is to make annual contributions to the plans to fund the normal cost as required by local regulations.
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company offered employees with deferred vested balances in the U.S. defined pension plan (the "U.S. Plan") the opportunity to voluntarily elect an early payout of their benefits. The payouts are expected to occur during the three months ended June 30, 2019 and will be paid out of the U.S. Plan assets resulting in a non-cash settlement charge which will be determined as of the date of payout, may be material and will be recorded in interest and other expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The components of net periodic (benefit) cost related to pension and other post-retirement benefit plans is as follows:

three months ended March 31, 2019
and
2018
. 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
2018
Form 10-K.
Company Overview
Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. (through its subsidiaries) is a leading supplier of electrical wire harnesses, seating systems, and a full range of other cab related products for the global commercial vehicle markets, including the medium- and heavy-duty truck ("MD/HD Truck"), medium- and heavy-construction vehicle, military, bus, agriculture, specialty transportation, mining, industrial equipment and off-road recreational markets.
We have manufacturing operations in the United States, Mexico, China, United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Thailand, India and Australia. Our products are primarily sold in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.
We are differentiated from automotive industry suppliers by our ability to manufacture low volume, customized products on a sequenced basis to meet the requirements of our customers. We believe our products are used by a majority of the North American MD/HD Truck and many medium- and heavy-duty construction vehicle OEMs, and to a lesser extent other makers of industrial equipment.
In February 2019, the Company announced a strategic reorganization of its operations into two reportable segments, the Electrical Systems Segment and the Global Seating Segment. The Electrical Systems Segment includes electrical wire harnesses and panel assemblies, trim systems and components ("Trim"), cab structures and sleeper boxes, mirrors, wipers and controls. The Global Seating Segment includes seats and seating systems ("Seats"), office seating, and aftermarket seats and components. This reorganization allows the Company to better focus its business along product lines, as opposed to end markets, which the Company believes will enhance the effectiveness of seeking out growth opportunities and shareholder value. With respect to the Electrical Systems segment, we believe there may be opportunities to realize certain synergies amongst the products in this segment, especially with respect to electrical wire harnesses and panel assemblies, trim systems and components, and mirrors, wipers, and controls. With respect to the Seating Segment, we believe combining the seating operations will present opportunities to leverage resources and best practices in engineering, product development and manufacturing, while eliminating redundancies and providing a global, more scalable platform for effective and efficient operations.
Business Overview
For the
three months ended March 31, 2019
, approximately 50% of our revenue was generated from sales to North American MD/HD Truck OEMs and approximately 20% from sales to OEMs in the global construction equipment market. Our remaining revenue was primarily derived from sales to the aftermarket, OE service organizations, the military market and specialty markets.
Demand for our seating systems and trim 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, heavy-duty truck OEMs generally afford the end-user the ability to specify many of the component parts that will be used to manufacture the 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. In addition, certain of our products are only utilized in heavy-duty trucks, such as our storage systems, sleeper boxes and privacy curtains. To the extent that demand for higher content vehicles increases or decreases, our revenues and gross profit will be impacted positively or negatively.
Demand for our electrical wire harnesses and panel assemblies is increasingly driven by the complexity and content of electrical distribution systems in vehicles. In the future, integrated sensor technology, active electronics, embedded software and other power and data applications may further increase sales opportunities of our products, especially our electrical wire harnesses and panel assemblies and trim products.
We generally compete for new business at the beginning of the development of a new vehicle platform and upon the redesign of existing programs. New platform development generally begins one 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. Several of the major truck makers have upgraded their truck platforms and we believe we have maintained our share of content in these platforms. With respect to our electrical wire harnesses and panel assemblies, we also compete for business on existing commercial vehicle 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 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
20
Table of Contents
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 April 2019 report by ACT Research, a publisher of industry market research, North American Class 8 production levels are expected to increase to 337,000 units in 2019, decrease to 246,000 units in 2020, and then increase to 343,000 units in 2023. We believe the demand for North American Class 8 vehicles in 2019 will be between 330,000 to 350,000 units. ACT Research estimated that the average age of active North American Class 8 trucks was 11.2 and 11.3 years in 2018 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 233,000 units in 2016 to 272,000 units in 2018. We believe the demand for Class 5-7 vehicles in 2019 will be stable at 268,000. According to an April 2019 report by ACT Research, North American Class 5-7 truck production is expected to gradually increase to 280,000 units in 2023.
Demand for our products for the construction and agricultural industries, primarily seating and electrical wire harnesses and panel assemblies, is dependent on vehicle production and 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, forestry and commodities industries. We believe the construction markets we serve in Europe, Asia, and North America have improved.
Our Long-Term Strategy
Our long-term strategy is to grow revenue by product, geography and end market. Our products include electrical wire harnesses and panel assemblies, Trim, mirrors, wipers and controls cab structures and sleeper boxes and Seats. We intend to allocate resources consistent with our strategy; more specifically, consistent with our product portfolio, geographic region and end market diversification objectives. We periodically evaluate our long-term strategy and may adjust the strategy in response to changes in our business environment and other factors.
As part of our long-term strategy, we have considered and will consider acquisitions and divestitures to enhance our return to our shareholders and our service to customers.

a $30.1 million, or 31.9%, increase in OEM North American MD/HD Truck revenues; and
•
a $2.7 million, or 2.2%, decrease in other revenues.
First

2019
revenues were adversely impacted by foreign currency exchange translation of
$4.5 million
, which is reflected in the change in revenues above.
21
Table of Contents
Gross Profit
. The
increase
in gross profit is primarily attributable to the increase in sales volume. Included in gross profit is cost of revenues, which increased
$23.7 million
, or
12.7%
, as a result of an increase in raw material and purchased component costs of $16.0 million, or 13.4%, wages and benefits of $1.9 million, or 11.3%, and overhead expenses of $5.8 million, or 11.8%. Commodity and other material inflationary pressures, as well as difficult labor markets, adversely affected cost of revenues. Cost control and cost recovery initiatives, including pricing adjustments, reduced the impact of these cost pressures on gross profit. The first quarter of 2019 results include costs of approximately $1.4 million arising from wage increases in the North American wire harness business as a consequence of changes to the minimum wage laws in Mexico. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit margin was
14.2%
for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
compared to
14.3%
for the
three months ended March 31, 2018
.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of wages and benefits and other expenses such as marketing, travel, legal, audit, rent and utility costs which are not directly associated with the manufacturing of our products. Selling, general and administrative expenses of
$15.2 million
for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
were substantially the same as the
three months ended March 31, 2018
.
Interest and Other Expense
. Interest, associated with our debt, and other expense was
$4.4 million
and
$1.8 million
for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
and
2018
, respectively. The increase reflects rising interest rates, but more significantly the impact of the interest rate swap agreements that are marked-to-market, resulting in a $0.7 million charge in the three months ended March 31, 2019 and a $1.3 million gain in the prior year period.
Provision for Income Taxes.
An income tax provision of
$3.5 million
and
$3.7 million
were recorded for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
and
2018
, respectively. The period over period change in the tax provision was primarily attributable to a decrease in the impact of the GILTI tax, net of associated foreign tax credits.
Net Income.
Net income was
$11.1 million
and
$9.9 million
for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
and
2018
, respectively. The increase is attributed to the factors noted above.

The increase in Electrical System Segment revenues resulted from:
•
a $20.3 million, or 37.3%, increase in OEM North American MD/HD Truck revenues;
•
a $1.6 million, or 6.7%, increase in OEM construction equipment revenues; and
•
a $1.2 million, or 2.7%, decrease in other revenues.
Electrical System Segment revenues were adversely impacted by foreign currency exchange translation of
$1.6 million
, which is reflected in the change in revenues above.
Gross Profit.
The
increase
in gross profit was primarily attributable to the increase in sales volume. Included in gross profit is cost of revenues, which increased $17.8 million, or 17.0%, as a result of an increase in raw material and purchased component costs of $10.9 million, or 16.2%, wages and benefits of $1.6 million, or 15.2%, and overhead expenses of $5.3 million, or 19.4%. Commodity and other material inflationary pressures, as well as difficult labor markets, adversely affected cost of revenues. Cost control and cost recovery initiatives reduced the impact of these cost pressures on gross profit. The first quarter of 2019 results include costs of approximately $1.4 million arising from labor increases in the North American wire harness business driven by changes to the minimum wage laws in Mexico. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit margin was
14.5%
for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
compared to

Revenues.
The
increase
in Global Seating Segment revenues resulted from:
•
a $9.7 million, or 24.4%, increase in OEM North American MD/HD Truck Revenues;
•
a $1.7 million, or 6.8% decrease in OEM construction equipment revenues; and
•
a $0.9 million, or 3.1%, increase in other revenues.
Global Seating Segment revenues were adversely impacted by foreign currency exchange translation of
$2.9 million
, which is reflected in the change in revenues above.
Gross Profit.
The
increase
in gross profit is primarily attributable to the increase in sales volume. Included in gross profit is cost of revenues, which increased $8.3 million, or 10.1%, as a result of an increase in raw material and purchased component costs of $7.2 million, or 13.4%, wages and benefits of $0.4 million, or 5.4%, and overhead expenses of $0.7 million, or 3.3%. Commodity and other material inflationary pressures, as well as difficult labor markets, adversely affected cost of revenues. Cost control and cost recovery initiatives reduced the impact of these cost pressures on gross profit. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit margin was
13.2%
for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
compared to
13.8
% for the
three months ended March 31, 2018
.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
. Global Seating Segment selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 5.5% for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
compared to the
three months ended March 31, 2018
, notwithstanding the increase in revenues, reflecting a focus on cost discipline.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company did not borrow against its asset-based revolver during the
three months ended March 31, 2019
. At
March 31, 2019
, the Company had liquidity of
$117.7 million
;
$54.3 million
of cash and
$63.4 million
availability from its asset-based revolver. We intend to allocate resources consistent with the following priorities: (1) to provide liquidity; (2) to invest in growth; (3) to reduce debt; and (4) to return capital to our shareholders.
Cash Flows
Our primary sources of liquidity during the
three months ended March 31, 2019
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, capital expenditures and debt service throughout the next twelve months. However, no assurance can be given that this will be the case. As of
March 31, 2019
, we had
no
borrowings under our revolving credit facility and had borrowing availability of
$63.4 million
.
For the
three months ended March 31, 2019
, net cash used in operating activities was
$6.0 million
compared to
$20.0 million
for the
three months ended March 31, 2018
. The improvement in net cash provided by operating activities is due to the improvement in net income, the non-cash gain/loss on derivative contracts and lower investment in working capital.
For the
three months ended March 31, 2019
, net cash used in investing activities was
$5.6 million
compared to
$1.7 million
for the
three months ended March 31, 2018
. In
2019
, we expect capital expenditures to be in the range of $16 million to $19 million.

For the
three months ended March 31, 2019
, net cash used in financing activities was
$5.3 million
compared to net cash provided by financing activities of
$6.4 million
for the
three months ended March 31, 2018
. Net cash used in financing activities for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
is attributable to quarterly loan amortization and excess cash flow payment on the Term Loan. Net cash provided by financing activities for the
three months ended March 31, 2018
is attributable to the payments on the Term Loan offset by net borrowings on the revolving credit facility.
As of
March 31, 2019
, cash of $51.3 million was held by foreign subsidiaries. With the exception of the Company's Chinese subsidiary, management intends to indefinitely reinvest the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries to the extent a distribution thereof would result in income tax expense. As a result of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, the repatriation of earnings from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries generally do not result in U.S. federal income tax expense. However, future dividends paid by certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries would be subject to foreign withholding tax. In April 2019, $5.5 million in cash was repatriated from the Company’s Luxembourg subsidiary. The Company plans to repatriate approximately $10.0 million from its Chinese subsidiary during 2019 and a $0.5 million deferred tax liability was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the expected tax implications.
Debt and Credit Facilities
The debt and credit facilities descriptions in footnote 13 of the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" are incorporated in this section by reference.
Covenants and Liquidity
Our ability to comply with the covenants in the TLS Agreement and the Third ARLS Agreement, as discussed in Note 13, may be affected 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 covenant and the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant, if applicable, and other covenants in the TLS Agreement and the Third ARLS 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 other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. If actual results are substantially different than our current forecast we may not be able to comply with our financial covenants.If we do not comply with the financial and other covenants 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. If we are unable to borrow under the Third ARLS Agreement, we will need to meet our capital requirements using alternative sources of liquidity which may not be available on acceptable terms. 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 the next 12 months. No assurance can be given, however, that this will be the case. Additionally, the Company may, under the TLS Agreement, increase borrowings if certain total leverage ratio requirements are met.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We believe there are no material changes in the quantitative and qualitative market risks since our
2018
Form 10-K.
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 controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, 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
March 31, 2019
our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the
three months ended March 31, 2019
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of 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. Legal Proceedings.
We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including, but not limited to, workers’ compensation claims, OSHA investigations, employment disputes, unfair labor practice charges, customer and supplier disputes, service provider disputes, product liability claims, intellectual property disputes, and environmental claims arising out of the conduct of our businesses and examinations by the Internal Revenue Service. 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.
