OSHKOSH TRUCK CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Oshkosh Truck Corporation (the "Company") without audit. However, the foregoing financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of Company management, necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1998 condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the 1999 presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 1998 annual report to shareholders. In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." SFAS No. 130 establishes the standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses) as part of a full set of financial statements. This statement requires that all elements of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Effective October 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130. Comprehensive income has been included in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Shareholders' Equity and prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to SFAS No. 130 requirements. 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted weighted average shares used in the denominator of the per share calculations, as restated to reflect the effects of a stock dividend effective August 5, 1999 (see Note 7): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended June 30, June 30, -------- -------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 ---- ---- ---- ---- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Denominator for basic earnings per share 12,763,241 12,629,207 12,699,587 12,586,650 Effect of dilutive options and incentive compensation awards 310,386 169,801 300,174 145,458 ------------ ------------ ------------ ----------- Denominator for dilutive earnings per share 13,073,627 12,799,008 12,999,761 12,732,108 ============ ============ ============ =========== </TABLE> 7

ACQUISITIONS On February 26, 1998, the Company acquired for cash all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of McNeilus Companies, Inc. ("McNeilus") and entered into related non-compete and ancillary agreements for a net acquisition price of $217.6 million, including acquisition costs and net of cash acquired. The acquisition was financed from borrowings under a Senior Credit Facility and the issuance of Senior Subordinated Notes. McNeilus is a leading manufacturer and marketer of rear-discharge concrete mixers for the construction industry and refuse truck bodies for the waste services industry in the United States. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the operating results of McNeilus are included in the Company's consolidated statements of income since the date of acquisition. The purchase price, including acquisition costs, was allocated based on the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition. Approximately $61.0 million of the purchase price was allocated to the distribution network and other intangible assets, including non-competition agreements. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired amounted to approximately $114.6 million and has been accounted for as goodwill. Pro forma unaudited condensed consolidated operating results of the Company, assuming McNeilus had been acquired as of October 1, 1997, are summarized below: 8
<TABLE> <CAPTION> Nine Months Ended June 30, 1998 ------------- (In thousands, except per share amounts) <S> <C> Net sales $ 797,935 Income before extraordinary item 13,752 Net income 12,567 Earnings per share: Before extraordinary item $ 1.09 Net income 1.00 Earnings per share assuming dilution: Before extraordinary item 1.08 Net income 0.99 </TABLE> 5. LONG-TERM DEBT The Company has outstanding a Senior Credit Facility and $100.0 million of 8.75% Senior Subordinated Notes due March 1, 2008. The Senior Credit Facility consists of a six year $100.0 million revolving credit facility ("Revolving Credit Facility") and three term loan facilities ("Term Loan A", "Term Loan B", and "Term Loan C"). The outstanding balances as of June 30, 1999 on the Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan A, Term Loan B, and Term Loan C are $20.3 million, $87.0 million, $42.5 million, and $42.5 million, respectively. At June 30, 1999, outstanding borrowings of $20.3 million and $9.3 million of outstanding letters of credit reduced available capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility to $70.4 million. Substantially all the tangible and intangible assets of the Company and its subsidiaries (including the stock of certain subsidiaries) are pledged as collateral under the Senior Credit Facility. The Senior Credit Facility includes customary affirmative and negative covenants and requires mandatory prepayments to the extent of "excess cash flows" as defined in the Senior Credit Facility. The Senior Subordinated Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture dated February 26, 1998 (the "Indenture"), between the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined below) and Firstar Trust Company, as trustee. The Indenture contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition to the Company, certain of the Company's subsidiaries, fully, unconditionally, jointly and severally guarantee the Company's obligations under the Senior Subordinated Notes. 6. SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN On February 1, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a shareholder rights plan and declared a rights dividend (as subsequently 9
adjusted to reflect a stock dividend - see Note 7) of two-thirds Preferred Share Purchase Right ("Right") for each share of Common Stock and 40/69 of one Right for each share of Class A Common Stock outstanding on February 8, 1999, and provided that two-thirds Right and one 40/69 Right would be issued with each share of Common Stock and Class A Common Stock, respectively, thereafter issued. The Rights are exercisable only if a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Common Stock and Class A Common Stock or announces a tender offer for 15% or more of the Common Stock and Class A Common Stock. Each Right entitles the holder thereof to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth share of the Company's Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock at an initial exercise price of $145 per one one-hundredth of a share (subject to adjustment), or, upon the occurrence of certain events, Common Stock or common stock of an acquiring company having a market value equivalent to two times the exercise price. Subject to certain conditions, the Rights are redeemable by the Board of Directors for $.01 per Right and are exchangeable for shares of Common Stock. The Board of Directors is also authorized to reduce the 15% threshold referred to above to not less than 10%. The Rights have no voting power and initially expire on February 1, 2009. 7. STOCK DIVIDEND Following the close of business on July 23, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors declared a three-for-two split of both classes of Company common stock to be effected in the form of a 50 percent stock dividend payable August 19, 1999 to shareholders of record on August 5, 1999. All per share and weighted average share amounts have been restated in the accompanying financial statements and related notes to reflect this split. As a part of its action to declare this stock dividend, the Rights under the Shareholder Rights Plan were proportionally adjusted, as were authorizations, outstanding options and option exercise prices under the 1990 Incentive Stock Plan of the Company. 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company was engaged in litigation against Super Steel Products Corp. ("SSPC"), the Company's former supplier of mixer systems for forward-discharge concrete mixer trucks under a long-term supply contract. SSPC sued the Company in state court claiming the Company breached the contract. The Company counterclaimed for repudiation of the contract. On July 26, 1996, a jury returned a verdict for SSPC awarding damages totaling $4.5 million. On October 10, 1996, the state court judge overturned the verdict against the Company, granted judgment for the Company on its counterclaim, and ordered a new trial for damages on the Company's counterclaim. Both SSPC and the Company appealed the state court judge's decision to the Wisconsin Court of Appeals. On December 8, 1998, the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ordered the state court judge to reinstate the jury verdict against the Company awarding damages totaling $4.5 million plus interest to SSPC. On April 6, 1999, the Company's petition for review of this decision by the 10
Wisconsin Supreme Court was denied. On April 12, 1999, the Company petitioned the state court judge to act on the Company's previous motion for a retrial. This petition was denied on June 18, 1999 and the state court judge directed that judgment be entered. In lieu of further appeals, the Company paid $5.75 million on July 27, 1999 in final settlement of the matter. The Company had recorded a liability for the full amount of the final settlement at June 30, 1999. As part of its routine business operations, the Company disposes of and recycles or reclaims certain industrial waste materials, chemicals and solvents at third party disposal and recycling facilities which are licensed by appropriate governmental agencies. In some instances, these facilities have been and may be designated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") or a state environmental agency for remediation. Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA") and similar state laws, each potentially responsible party ("PRP") that contributed hazardous substances may be jointly and severally liable for the costs associated with cleaning up the site. Typically, PRPs negotiate a resolution with the EPA and/or the state environmental agencies. PRPs also negotiate with each other regarding allocation of the cleanup cost. As to one such Superfund site, Pierce Manufacturing Inc. ("Pierce") is one of 431 PRPs participating in the costs of addressing the site and has been assigned an allocation share of approximately 0.04%. A remedial investigation/ feasibility study was completed in September 1998. A feasibility study and modeling report were submitted on April 30, 1999 to the state environmental agency. A final acceptance of the remedial investigation/feasibility study will not be available until late-1999, with the remedial design/remedial action phase commencing after early 2000. As such, an estimate for the total cost of the remediation of this site has not been made to date. However, based on estimates and the assigned allocations, the Company believes its liability at the site will not be material and its share is adequately covered at June 30, 1999 through reserves established by the Company. Actual liability could vary based on completion of the study, the resources of other PRPs and the Company's final share of liability. As to another such Superfund site, Oshkosh Truck Corporation and its former Trailer Division and Pierce are three of approximately 1,450 customers of one of the PRPs that have received notification of identification as such a PRP. No further evidence concerning the site, its environmental issues or any other information has been furnished. The Company believes that it will be a de minimis level PRP, if any liability is established, so that any such liability will not be material. Actual liability could vary based upon subsequently available information. The Company is addressing a regional trichloroethylene ("TCE") groundwater plume on the south side of Oshkosh, Wisconsin. The Company believes there 11
may be multiple sources in the area. TCE was detected in the groundwater at the Company's North Plant facility with recent testing showing the highest concentrations in a monitoring well located on the upgradient property line. Because the investigation process is still ongoing, it is not possible for the Company to estimate its long-term total liability associated with this issue at this time. Also, as part of the regional TCE groundwater investigation, the Company conducted a groundwater investigation of a former landfill located on Company property. The landfill, acquired by the Company in 1972, is approximately 2.0 acres in size and is believed to have been used for the disposal of household waste. Based on the investigation, the Company does not believe the landfill is one of the sources of the TCE contamination. Based upon current knowledge, the Company believes its liability associated with the TCE issue will not be material and believes that it is adequately covered at June 30, 1999 through reserves established by the Company. However, this may change as investigations proceed by the Company, other unrelated property owners, and the government. The Company is subject to other environmental matters and legal proceedings and claims, including patent, antitrust, product liability and state dealership regulation compliance proceedings, that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the final results of all such matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of all such matters and claims, after taking into account the liabilities accrued with respect to such matters and claims, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Actual results could vary, among other things, due to the uncertainties involved in litigation. The Company has guaranteed certain customers' obligations under deferred payment contracts and lease purchase agreements totaling approximately $1 million at June 30, 1999. The Company is also contingently liable under bid, performance and specialty bonds totaling approximately $107.8 million and open standby letters of credit issued by the Company's bank in favor of third parties totaling approximately $9.3 million at June 30, 1999. 9. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION The following tables present condensed consolidating financial information for: (a) the Company; (b) on a combined basis, the guarantors of the Senior Subordinated Notes, which include all of the wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company ("Subsidiary Guarantors") other than McNeilus Financial Services, Inc., Oshkosh/McNeilus Financial Services, Inc., and Nation's Casualty Insurance, Inc., which are the only non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Company ("Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries"), and (c) on a combined basis, the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Separate financial statements of the Subsidiary Guarantors are not presented because the guarantors are jointly, severally, and unconditionally liable under the guarantees, and the Company 12
believes separate financial statements and other disclosures regarding the Subsidiary Guarantors are not material to investors. The Company is comprised of Wisconsin and Florida manufacturing operations and certain corporate management, information services and finance functions. Borrowings and related interest expense under the Senior Credit Facility and the Senior Subordinated Notes are charged to the Company. The Company has allocated a portion of this interest expense to Pierce Manufacturing Inc. through a formal lending arrangement. The Company is charged interest by its wholly-owned subsidiary, McNeilus Companies, Inc. under a formal lending arrangement.

Item 2. Oshkosh Truck Corporation Management's Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other sections of this report contain statements that management believes are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this report, including, without limitation, statements regarding Oshkosh Truck Corporation's (the "Company" or "Oshkosh") future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected costs and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are considered forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may", "will", "expect", "intend", "estimates", "anticipate", "believe", "should", "plans", or "continue", or the negative thereof or variations thereon or similar terminology. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations include, without limitation, the following: (1) the consequences of financial leverage; (2) the cyclical nature of the construction industry; (3) the risks related to reductions or changes in government expenditures; (4) the uncertainty inherent in government contracts; (5) the challenges of identifying acquisition candidates and integrating acquired businesses; (6) competition; (7) disruptions in the supply of parts or components from sole source suppliers and subcontractors; (8) product liability and warranty claims; (9) labor relations and market conditions; (10) unanticipated events relating to the resolution of Year 2000 issues; (11) competitive pricing pressures for the Company's products; and (12) opportunities that may be presented to and pursued by the Company. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company, or persons acting on its behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. Stock Dividend Following the close of business on July 23, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors declared a three-for-two stock split of both classes of Company common stock to be effected in the form of a 50 percent stock dividend payable August 19, 1999 to shareholders of record on August 5, 1999. All per share amounts presented in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations have been restated to reflect this stock split. Results of Operations Third Quarter 1999 Compared to 1998 The Company reported net income of $10.5 million, or $0.81 per share, on sales of $329.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1999, compared to net income of $4.6 million, or $0.35 per share, on sales of $290.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1998. 22
Sales of commercial and fire and emergency products increased in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 1998 while sales of defense products decreased. Commercial and fire and emergency sales in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 increased $46.3 million, or 19.8%, from the third quarter of fiscal 1998 to $280.9 million. An increase of $41.9 million in sales of construction and refuse vehicles and a $4.4 million increase in sales of fire and emergency apparatus accounted for the increase. Commercial sales include rear-discharge concrete mixers and refuse packers sold by McNeilus Companies, Inc. ("McNeilus"), acquired on February 26, 1998, and front-discharge concrete mixers sold under the Oshkosh brand. Total construction vehicle sales rose 22.1% during the third quarter of 1999 due to strong end markets for the Company's construction products and the introduction of a new cab and mixer package for Oshkosh's front-discharge concrete mixer. Refuse packer sales rose 48.3% in the third quarter of 1999. Management believes that commercial waste haulers accelerated the replacement of refuse packers in their fleets in 1998 and 1999 and that the Company has increased its penetration with both commercial and municipal accounts. Sales of fire and emergency vehicles rose 5.7% due to strong market demand and an improved product mix. Sales of defense products totaled $50.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999, a decrease of $5.1 million, or 9.1%, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 1998. Defense sales declined due to the trend in lower heavy military truck spending in the federal budget and the completion of the ISO-Compatible Palletized Flatrack contract in July 1998. Vehicle sales under the recently awarded U.S. Marine Corps Medium Tactical Truck Replacement ("MTTR") contract will not begin until fiscal 2000. Gross income in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 totaled $48.3 million, or 14.6% of sales, compared to $39.6 million, or 13.6% of sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. Gross margins improved in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 due to cost reduction realized by combining the purchasing requirements of Oshkosh and McNeilus, and also due to an improved product mix in fire and emergency and defense products. Operating expenses increased $0.5 million to $24.8 million, or 7.5% of sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to $24.3 million, or 8.4% of sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. Interest expense decreased to $6.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to $7.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. The decrease in interest expense is due to fiscal 1998 debt repayments. The effective income tax rate for combined federal and state income taxes for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 was 41.6% compared to 45.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 1998. The effective income tax rate for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 was impacted by non-deductible goodwill amortization of $1.5 million and a more favorable effective state income tax structure as a result of the McNeilus acquisition. The effective income tax rate for 23
the third quarter of fiscal 1998 was impacted by non-deductible goodwill amortization of $1.3 million. Equity in earnings of unconsolidated partnership was $0.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to $0.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. The extraordinary charge of $0.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998 related to the write-off of debt issuance costs as a result of early retirement of debt. First Nine Months of 1999 Compared to 1998 The Company reported net income of $21.0 million, or $1.62 per share, on sales of $851.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1999, compared to net income of $10.1 million, or $0.79 per share, on sales of $659.7 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1998. Sales of commercial and fire and emergency products increased in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 1998 while sales of defense products decreased. Commercial and fire and emergency sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 increased $236.2 million, or 50%, from the first nine months of fiscal 1998 to $708.6 million. An increase of $208.3 million in sales of construction and refuse vehicles and a $27.9 million increase in sales of fire and emergency apparatus accounted for the increase. The inclusion of McNeilus for a full nine months in fiscal 1999 compared to only four months in fiscal 1998 accounted for $138.2 million of the increase in fiscal 1999 sales. Construction vehicle sales benefited in the nine-month period of fiscal 1999 from strong construction end markets and the introduction of a new cab and mixer package for Oshkosh's front-discharge concrete mixer. Management believes that commercial waste haulers accelerated the replacement of refuse packers in their fleets in 1998 and 1999 and that the Company has increased its penetration with both commercial and municipal accounts. Sales of fire and emergency vehicles rose 13.0% due to strong market demand and an improved product mix. Sales of defense products totaled $147.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1999, a decrease of $40.7 million, or 21.7%, compared to the first nine months of fiscal 1998. Defense sales declined due to the trend in lower heavy military truck spending in the federal budget and the completion of the ISO-Compatible Palletized Flatrack contract in July 1998. Gross income in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 totaled $124.9 million, or 14.7% of sales, compared to $87.1 million, or 13.2% of sales, in the first nine months of fiscal 1998. McNeilus contributed $58.1 million of gross income for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 compared to $26.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1998. Fiscal 1998 results included only four months of McNeilus operations. 24
Operating expenses increased $18.5 million to $71.7 million, or 8.4% of sales, in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 compared to $53.2 million, or 8.1% of sales, in the first nine months of fiscal 1998. Operating expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 included a $3.8 million non-recurring charge for litigation, or 0.4% of sales, and a $2.9 million increase in amortization of goodwill and other intangibles, or 0.3% of sales. The remainder of the increase largely reflects the operating expenses of McNeilus, which the Company owned for an additional five months in fiscal 1999. Interest expense increased to $19.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 compared to $14.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1998. The increase in interest expense was due to additional borrowings to finance the acquisition of McNeilus, net of debt repayment. The effective tax rate for combined federal and state income taxes for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 was 42.6% compared to 42.3% for the first nine months of fiscal 1998. The effective income tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 was impacted by non-deductible goodwill amortization of $4.5 million. The effective income tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 1998 was impacted by non-deductible goodwill amortization of $2.8 million and the reversal of $0.5 million of income tax provisions recognized in earlier periods. Equity in earnings of unconsolidated partnership increased to $1.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 compared to a loss of $0.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1998. The first nine months of fiscal 1998 included a $0.9 million after-tax charge due to the early-adoption of a new accounting standard related to start-up activities of the partnership. Also, results for the first nine months of fiscal 1998 included only four months of operations of the partnership following its formation on February 26, 1998. The extraordinary charge of $1.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1998 was due to the previously discussed early retirement of debt. Financial Condition First Nine Months of 1999 During the first nine months of fiscal 1999, cash increased by $1.8 million. Equipment and software purchases of $6.9 million, dividends of $3.2 million, increases in long-term assets of $4.4 million generally related to the Pierce enterprise resource planning system installed in fiscal 1999 and additional equity investments in the Company's leasing partnership of $1.1 million were funded by cash from operations of $1.1 million, a $14.3 million increase in borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility and $1.1 million of proceeds from exercise of Common Stock options under the Company's Incentive Stock Plan. 25
First Nine Months of 1998 During the first nine months of fiscal 1998, cash increased $1.4 million. Cash available at the beginning of the period of $23.2 million and cash provided from operations during the period of $79.0 million or a total of $102.2 million were used primarily to fund $53.9 million of debt repayments, the acquisition of Nova Quintech for $3.5 million, capital additions of $6.3 million and the payment of dividends of $3.1 million. The Company borrowed approximately $347.2 million in February 1998 ($225.0 million under a multi-tranche senior term loan facility, $100.0 million of senior subordinated notes and $22.2 million under a new $100.0 million revolving credit facility). Such borrowings were utilized to close the McNeilus acquisition ($249.5 million purchase price and non-competition payments plus $6.0 million in acquisition costs less cash acquired of $37.9 million, or $217.6 million, plus restricted cash of $11.1 million), refinance $110.0 million of outstanding indebtedness under the Company's previous credit facility and to pay $8.5 million in debt issuance costs. In March 1998, the Company realized approximately $5.5 million from the disposition of certain McNeilus assets. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's primary cash requirements are expected to include working capital, interest and principal payments on indebtedness, capital expenditures, dividends and, potentially, future acquisitions. The primary sources of cash are expected to be cash flow from operations and borrowings under the Company's Senior Credit Facility. Based upon current and anticipated future operations, the Company believes that capital resources will be adequate to meet future working capital, debt service and other capital requirements for fiscal 1999, including the effect of the recently awarded MTTR contract. Backlog The Company's backlog as of June 30, 1999 was $455.3 million, compared to $420.9 million at June 30, 1998. The backlog at June 30, 1999 includes $129.5 million with respect to U.S. Government contracts (including $45.0 million for the funded portion of the MTTR contract), $199.7 million related to fire and emergency apparatus and $126.1 million with respect to commercial products. The backlog excludes the unfunded portion of the MTTR contract ($739 million at June 30, 1999). Approximately 44% of the Company's backlog orders will not be filled within fiscal 1999. Most of the Company's revenues are derived from customer orders prior to commencing production. Reported backlog excludes purchase options and announced orders for which definitive contracts have not been executed. Additionally, backlog 26
excludes unfunded portions of U.S. Department of Defense ("DoD") long-term family contracts. Backlog information and comparisons thereof as of different dates may not be accurate indicators of future sales or the ratio of the Company's future sales to the DoD versus its sales to other customers. Year 2000 General The Company commenced a corporate-wide Year 2000 project ("Project 2000") in 1997 to address issues with respect to the ability of computer programs and embedded computer chips to distinguish between the years 1900 and 2000. Project 2000 is on schedule in all material respects. The Company believes that all of its principal enterprise resource planning systems are Year 2000 ready. Other information systems that are believed to pose lesser risks in the event of Year 2000 failure are scheduled to be upgraded or replaced by September 30, 1999. Issues with respect to embedded computer chips will continue to be addressed throughout 1999 based on a prioritization of risks. Tests have been and will continue to be conducted with respect to information systems, telephone systems, manufacturing equipment, Company-produced trucks and equipment and other systems and equipment which might exhibit Year 2000 issues in order to determine the extent of any continuing corrective action required. Project 2000 Project 2000 is addressing four principal areas--Infrastructure and Applications Software; Company-produced trucks and equipment; Process Controls and Instrumentation ("PC&I"); and third-party suppliers and customers ("External Parties"). The project phases common to each area include: (1) development of an inventory of Year 2000 risks; (2) assignment of priorities to identified risks; (3) assessment of Year 2000 compliance and impact of noncompliance; (4) tests to determine whether any upgrade or replacement is required; (5) upgrade or replacement of items that are determined not to be Year 2000 compliant if the impact of noncompliance is material; (6) testing of any upgrades or replacements; and (7) design and implementation of contingency and business continuation plans for each organization and facility. As of June 30, 1999, the initial four phases for each of the four areas of Project 2000 and remediation of all principal enterprise resource planning systems are believed to have been completed. Material items are those believed by the Company to have a risk involving the safety of individuals, or that may cause damage to property or affect revenues and expenses. Infrastructure and Applications Software--As the Company addresses its infrastructure and applications software, it tests and then upgrades or 27
replaces the affected hardware and systems software, as necessary. The Company maintains two enterprise resource planning ("ERP") computer systems at its Oshkosh operations and one system each at its Pierce Manufacturing Inc. ("Pierce") and McNeilus and operations. In May 1999, the Company consolidated its Florida computer operations into Oshkosh's computer operations. The Company installed an upgraded release of software (which is certified by the software vendor as being Year 2000 ready) to its ERP system for truck operations in Oshkosh in July 1998. Programming to upgrade the remaining Oshkosh ERP system for its parts operations was completed in December 1998. In April 1999, Pierce completed the replacement of all of its hardware and business systems with a new, vendor-certified Year 2000 ready, ERP system and related hardware. McNeilus installed an upgraded release to its ERP systems in August and September 1998. Validation testing at McNeilus to assure that the upgrade is Year 2000 ready is scheduled for completion by September 30, 1999. Other infrastructure and applications software, including engineering systems, are believed to pose lesser risks in the event of Year 2000 noncompliance due to a wider range of less disruptive commercial options available to cure noncompliance. The Company has extended its plans to upgrade or replace all such non-compliant systems to September 30, 1999. Company-Produced Trucks and Equipment--The Company has communicated with suppliers that are critical to the manufacture of its products to verify whether computer chips embedded in its trucks and equipment are Year 2000 ready, and has issued Service Bulletins to customers with respect to the findings. The Company has not identified any material issues with respect to computer chips embedded into its products. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance at this time that its investigation is complete or that material warranty and product liability issues will not develop with respect to this matter. To the extent that suppliers of the Company experience Year 2000 problems and the Company is unable to source alternate suppliers, changes to the Company's products may be necessary to avoid warranty and liability, both as to products already in use, and as to products to be shipped in the future. PC&I--Certain systems, such as telephone systems, have been upgraded to be Year 2000 ready. Current indications are that the Company's remaining equipment and systems will not require material upgrades or replacements. The testing and necessary improvements of PC&I equipment will continue throughout 1999. External Parties--The Company has surveyed critical parts and all chassis suppliers to assess the Year 2000 readiness of their products and business systems. The Company's largest suppliers are large public companies and, as such, generally have significant projects completed or underway similar to Project 2000. There can be no assurance that these suppliers or the Company's smaller suppliers will not have Year 2000 issues with their processes or business systems that ultimately could have a 28
material effect on the Company in spite of such projects. Where suppliers are deemed to pose significant risk to the Company, alternate suppliers or contingency plans are being developed. The Company does not maintain significant computer interfaces with its customers, except with the DoD, where invoices and remittances are sent by electronic data interchange. The DoD is an extremely large organization. Certain departments within the DoD, which interface with the Company, have communicated that they were Year 2000 compliant as of March 31, 1999. However, the DoD has not provided the Company with any assurances that its systems will be Year 2000 compliant, or whether DoD computer interfaces with other U.S. government entities will be Year 2000 ready. Should the DoD encounter Year 2000 difficulties, the Company's sales and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. There also can be no assurance that the Company's other customers will not lose business or otherwise encounter Year 2000 issues that could ultimately affect the sales and earnings of the Company. Costs Based on the Company's activities to date and considering known items, the Company does not expect the total cost associated with required hardware, equipment and software modifications to become Year 2000 ready to be material to the Company's financial position. The total estimated capital costs (which would have been incurred regardless of Year 2000 issues and which have the incidental consequence of Year 2000 readiness) and period expenses of Project 2000 are $8.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of which $8.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, have been expended as of June 30, 1999. Approximately $7.9 million of the estimated capital costs relate to the replacement of all the hardware and business systems at Pierce, which was completed in April 1999. To date, none of the Company's other information systems projects have been delayed due to Project 2000. Risks Under Project 2000 (as in any project of this magnitude and scope), there is risk of underestimating the tasks and difficulties to be encountered, or in obtaining necessary personnel. Risk also exists in that the failure to correct a material Year 2000 problem could result in an interruption in, or a failure of, certain normal business activities or operations. Such failures could materially and adversely affect the Company's results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Due to the general uncertainty inherent in the Year 2000 problem, resulting in part from the uncertainty of the Year 2000 readiness of third-party suppliers and customers, the Company is unable to determine at this time whether the consequences of Year 2000 failures will have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. Project 2000 is expected to significantly reduce the Company's level of 29
uncertainty about the Year 2000 problem and, in particular, about the Year 2000 compliance and readiness of its material External Parties. The Company believes that, with the installation of new or upgraded ERP business systems and assuming completion of Project 2000 as scheduled, the possibility of significant interruptions of normal operations should be reduced. The Company has commenced the establishment of contingency plans in the event that any unexpected issues arise when the Year 2000 arrives. The Company expects contingency planning to be complete by September 30, 1999. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure of Market Risk The Company has not experienced any material changes in market risk exposures since September 30, 1998. 30
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company was engaged in litigation against Super Steel Products Corp. ("SSPC"), the Company's former supplier of mixer systems for forward-discharge concrete mixer trucks under a long-term supply contract. SSPC sued the Company in state court claiming the Company breached the contract. The Company counterclaimed for repudiation of the contract. On July 26, 1996, a jury returned a verdict for SSPC awarding damages totaling $4.5 million. On October 10, 1996, the state court judge overturned the verdict against the Company, granted judgment for the Company on its counterclaim, and ordered a new trial for damages on the Company's counterclaim. Both SSPC and the Company appealed the state court judge's decision to the Wisconsin Court of Appeals. On December 8, 1998, the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ordered the state court judge to reinstate the jury verdict against the Company awarding damages totaling $4.5 million plus interest to SSPC. On April 6, 1999, the Company's petition for review of this decision by the Wisconsin Supreme Court was denied. On April 12, 1999, the Company petitioned the state court judge to act on the Company's previous motion for a retrial. The petition was denied on June 18, 1999 and the state court directed that judgment be entered. In lieu of further appeals, the Company paid $5.75 million on July 27, 1999 in final settlement of the matter. The Company had recorded a liability for the full amount of the final settlement at June 30, 1999.
