HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Harley-Davidson, Inc. and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned (the Company), including the accounts of the groupgroups of companies the Company refersreferred to as Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) and Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS). In addition, certain variable interest entities (VIEs) related to secured financing are consolidated as the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and material intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
The Company operates in 2 reportable segments: Motorcycles and Related Products (Motorcycles) and Financial Services.
In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Consolidated balance sheets as of JuneMarch 28, 20202021 and June 30, 2019,March 29, 2020, the Consolidated statements of operations for the three and six month periods then ended, the Consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income for the three and six month periods then ended, the Consolidated statements of cash flows for the sixthree month periods then ended, and the Consolidated statements of shareholders' equity for the three and six month periods then ended.
Certain information and disclosures normally included in complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial reporting. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
During the first quarter of 2020, the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) spread throughout the world, and it was recognized as a pandemic in March 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has severely restricted the level of economic activity in the U.S. and around the world. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to supply chain destabilization, facility closures, workforce disruption,world and volatility in the economy, andfull extent of its full impact is not yet known. These impacts may continue to expand in scope, type and severity.
The Company’s operations and demand for its products have been adversely impacted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company acted quickly and in alignment with government efforts to protect the safety and health of its employees and the Harley-Davidson community. The Company implemented travel restrictions, enhanced sanitation practices, cancelled events and closed facilities including temporarily suspending its global manufacturing starting in March 2020. While the Company's global manufacturing has resumed and the impacts on demand, facility closures and other restrictions are expected to be temporary, the duration and financial impact to the Company are unknown at this time. This uncertainty could have an impact in future periods on certainCertain estimates used in the preparation of financial results for the period ending JuneMarch 28, 2020, including, but not limited to,2021 could be impacted in future periods as a result of the allowance for credit losses, goodwill, long-lived assets, fair value measurements, the provision for income tax and hedge accounting with respect to forecasted future transactions.COVID-19 pandemic.
2. New Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Recently Adopted
In July 2016,December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). ASU 2016-13 changes how a company recognizes expected credit losses on financial instruments by requiring recognition of the full lifetime expected credit losses upon initial recognition of the financial instrument. ASU 2016-13 replaced the incurred loss methodology. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach for financial instruments measured at amortized cost.

On January 1, 2020, the Company remeasured the allowance for credit losses on financial instruments under the new accounting standard. The difference was recorded as a cumulative effect adjustment to Retained earnings, net of income taxes. The initial adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not impact the Company’s Consolidated statements of operations. The effect of adopting ASU 2016-13 on the Company’s Consolidated balance sheets was as follows (in thousands):

Financial Statement Comparability to Prior Periods – Beginning in 2020, under ASU 2016-13, the Company recognized full lifetime expected credit losses upon initial recognition of the associated financial instrument. Under ASU 2016-13, changes in the allowance for credit losses and the impact on the provision for credit losses will be affected by the size and composition of the Company's finance receivables portfolios, economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and other appropriate factors at each reporting period. Prior periods have not been restated and will continue to be reported in accordance with the previously applicable U.S. GAAP, which generally required that a credit loss be incurred before it was recognized.As such, prior periods will not be comparable to the current period. Additional information on the Company’s finance receivables is discussed further in Note 8.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (ASU 2017-04). ASU 2017-04 simplified the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill. Rather, the goodwill impairment is calculated by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value, and an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, limited to the total goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. All reporting units apply the same impairment test under the new standard. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 on January 1, 2020 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (ASU 2018-13). ASU 2018-13 amended ASC 820 to eliminate, modify, and add certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The amendments were required to be applied retrospectively, with the exception of a few disclosure additions, which were to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company adopted ASC 2018-13 on January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact on the Company's disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) (ASU 2018-15). The new guidance requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the existing internal-use software guidance to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The Company adopted ASU 2018-15 on January 1, 2020 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2018-15 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU No. 2019-12). The new guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The new guidance also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. EarlyCompany adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021 on a prospective basis. The adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluatingof ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the impact of adopting ASU 2019-12.Company's consolidated financial statements.

The Company holds either titles or liens on titles to vehicles financed by promissory notes and installment sales contracts.
The Company offers wholesale financing to its independent dealers in the U.S. and Canada. Wholesale finance receivables are related primarily to the Company's sale of motorcycles and related parts and accessories to dealers.

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13), which requires an entity to recognize expected lifetime losses on finance receivables upon origination. The allowance for credit losses as of June 28, 2020 represents the Company’s estimate of lifetime losses for its finance receivables. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company maintained an allowance for credit losses based on the Company’s estimate of probable losses inherent in the finance receivable portfolio as of the balance sheet date.
Under ASU 2016-13, the Company’s finance receivables are reported at amortized cost, net of the allowance for credit losses. Amortized cost includes the principal outstanding, accrued interest, and deferred loan fees and costs. Based on differences in the nature of the finance receivables and the underlying methodology for calculating the allowance for loan losses, the Company segments its finance receivables into the retail and wholesale portfolios. The Company further disaggregates each portfolio by credit quality indicators. As the credit risk varies between the retail and wholesale portfolios, the Company utilizes different credit quality indicators for each portfolio. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company’s investment in finance receivables included the same components as the amortized cost under the new accounting guidance.
The retail portfolio primarily consists of a large number of small balance, homogeneous finance receivables. The Company performs a collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. For periods after January 1, 2020, theThe Company utilizes a vintage-based loss forecast methodology that includes decompositions for probability of default, exposure at default, attrition rate, and recovery balance rate. Reasonable and supportable economic forecasts for a two-year period are incorporated into the methodology to reflect the estimated impact of changes in future economic conditions, such as unemployment rates, household obligations or other relevant factors, over the expected life of the retail portfolio.two-year reasonable and supportable period. For periods beyond the Company’s reasonable and supportable forecasts, the Company reverts to its average historical loss experience for a three-year period using a mean-reversion process.process over a three-year period. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or term as well as other relevant factors. For periods prior to January 1, 2020, the Company performed a periodic and systematic collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. The Company utilized loss forecast models which considered a variety of factors including, but not limited to, historical loss trends, origination or vintage analysis, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, the value of the underlying collateral, recovery rates and current economic conditions.
The wholesale portfolio is primarily composed of large balance, non-homogeneous loans. The Company’s evaluation for the wholesale allowance for credit losses is first based on a loan-by-loan review to determine whether the loans share similar risk characteristics. The Company classifiesindividually evaluates loans that do not share risk characteristicscharacteristics. Loans identified as those for which foreclosure is probable are classified as Non-Performing, and evaluates these loans individually. Aa specific allowance for credit losses is established for these finance receivables when foreclosure is probable.appropriate. The specific allowance is determined based on the amortized cost of the related finance receivable and the estimated fair value of the collateral, less selling costs and the cash that the Company expects to receive. Finance receivables in the wholesale portfolio not individually assessed are aggregated, based on similar risk characteristics, according to the Company’s internal risk rating system and measured collectively.

(a)On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and increased the allowance for loan loss through Retained earnings, net of income taxes, to establish an allowance that represents expected lifetime credit losses on the finance receivable portfolios at date of adoption.
The Company manages retail credit risk through its credit approval process and ongoing collection efforts. The Company uses FICO scores, a standard credit rating measurement, to differentiate the expected default rates of retail credit applicants, enabling the Company to better evaluate credit applicants for approval and to tailor pricing according to this assessment. For the Company’s U.S. and Canadian retail finance receivables, the Company determines the credit quality indicator for each loan at origination and does not update the credit quality indicator subsequent to the loan origination date.
As loan performance by credit quality indicator differs between the U.S. and Canadian retail loans, the Company’s credit quality indicators vary for the two portfolios. For U.S. retail finance receivables, those with a FICO score of 740 or above at origination are generally considered super prime, loans with a FICO score between 640 and 740 are generally categorized as prime, and loans with FICO score below 640 are generally considered sub-prime. For Canadian retail finance receivables, those with a FICO score of 700 or above at origination are generally considered super prime, loans with a FICO score between 620 and 700 are generally categorized as prime, and loans with FICO score below 620 are generally considered sub-prime.

The Company's credit risk on the wholesale portfolio is different from that of the retail portfolio. Whereas the retail portfolio represents a relatively homogeneous pool of retail finance receivables that exhibit more consistent loss patterns, the wholesale portfolio exposures are less consistent. The Company utilizes an internal credit risk rating system to manage credit risk exposure consistently across wholesale borrowers and individually evaluates credit risk factors for each borrower. The

Table of Contents
Company uses the following internal credit quality indicators, based on an internal risk rating system, listed from highest level of risk to lowest level of risk for the wholesale portfolio: Doubtful, Substandard, Special Mention, Medium Risk and Low Risk. Based upon the Company’s review, the dealers classified in the Doubtful category are the dealers with the greatest likelihood of being charged-off, while the dealers classified as Low Risk are least likely to be charged-off. TheAdditionally, the Company classifies dealers identified as those in which foreclosure is probable as Non-Performing. The internal rating system considers factors such as the specific borrower's ability to repay and the estimated value of any collateral. Dealer risk rating classifications are reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis.

Retail finance receivables are contractually delinquent if the minimum payment is not received by the specified due date. Retail finance receivables at amortized cost, excluding accrued interest, are generally charged-off when the receivable is 120 days or more delinquent, the related asset is repossessed, or the receivable is otherwise deemed uncollectible. The Company reverses accrued interest related to charged-off accounts against interest income when the account is charged-off. The Company reversed $5.0$5.2 million and $11.4$6.4 million of accrued interest against interest income during the three and six months ended JuneMarch 28, 2021 and March 29, 2020, respectively. All retail finance receivables accrue interest until either collected or charged-off. Due to the timely write-off of accrued interest, the Company made the election provided under ASU 2016-13Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC Topic 326) to exclude accrued interest from its allowance for credit losses. Accordingly, as of JuneMarch 28, 2020,2021, December 31, 20192020 and June 30, 2019,March 29, 2020, all retail finance receivables were accounted for as interest-earning receivables, of which $16.0 million, $48.0 million and $30.4 million, respectively, were 90 days or more past due.receivables.
Wholesale finance receivables are delinquent if the minimum payment is not received by the contractual due date. Wholesale finance receivables are written down once the Company determines that the specific borrower does not have the ability to repay the loan in full. Interest continues to accrue on past due finance receivables until the date the Company determines that foreclosure is probable, and the finance receivable is placed on non-accrual status. The Company will resume accruing interest on these accounts when payments are current according to the terms of the loans and future payments are reasonably assured. While on non-accrual status, all cash received is applied to principal or interest as appropriate. Once an account is charged-off, the Company will reverse the associated accrued interest against interest income. As the Company follows a non-accrual policy for interest, the allowance for credit losses excludes accrued interest for the wholesale portfolio.

Prior to the Company's January 1, 2020 adoption of ASU 2016-13, finance receivables were considered impaired when management determined it was probable that the Company would not be able to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the loan agreement. Portions of the allowance for credit losses were established to cover estimated losses on finance receivables specifically identified for impairment. The unspecified portion of the allowance for credit losses covered estimated losses on finance receivables which were collectively reviewed for impairment.
The allowance for credit losses and finance receivables by portfolio, segregated by those amounts that were individually evaluated for impairment and those that were collectively evaluated for impairment, were as follows (in thousands):

Generally, it is the Company’s policy not to change the terms and conditions of finance receivables. However, to minimize the economic loss, the Company may modify certain finance receivables in troubled debt restructurings. Total troubled restructured finance receivables arein troubled debt restructurings were not significantsignificant as of JuneMarch 28, 2020,2021, December 31, 20192020 and June 30, 2019.March 29, 2020. Additionally, in certain situations, the Company may offer short-term adjustments to customer payment due dates without affecting the associated interest rate or loan term. During 2020 and into the secondfirst quarter of 2020,2021, the Company offered an increased amount of short-term payment due date extensions on eligible retail loans to help retail customers get through short-term financial difficulties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. During the first quarter of 2021, the volume of payment extensions granted for eligible retail loans declined from the levels experienced during the second quarter and into the third quarter of 2020 but had not yet returned to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels. The Company continues to grant payment extensions to customers in accordance with its policies.
9. Goodwill, Intangible and Long-Lived Assets
Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company also periodically evaluates whether there are indicators that the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used may not be recoverable. The Company has assessed the changes in events and circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic and determined there was no impairment of goodwill or long-lived assets during the three and six months ended June 28, 2020.
On March 4, 2019, the Company purchased certain assets and liabilities of StaCyc, Inc. for total consideration of $14.9 million including cash paid at acquisition of $7.0 million. The primary assets acquired and included in the Motorcycles segment were goodwill of $9.5 million, which was tax deductible, and intangible assets of $5.3 million.
10. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to risks from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. To reduce its exposure to such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All derivative transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.

Table of Contents
The Company sells products in foreign currencies and utilizes foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to the Euro, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Brazilian real, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Chinese yuan, Thai baht, Indian rupee, Singapore dollar, and Pound sterling. The Company's foreign currency exchange contracts generally have maturities of less than one year.

Table of Contents
The Company utilizes commodity contracts to mitigate the effects of commodity price fluctuations related to metals and fuel consumed in the Company’s motorcycle operations. The Company's commodity contracts generally have maturities of less than one year.
The Company periodically utilizes treasury rate lock contracts to fix the interest rate on a portion of the principal related to an anticipated issuance of long-term debt, interest rate swaps to reduce the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on medium-term notes with floating interest rates, and cross-currency swaps to mitigate the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on foreign currency-denominated debt. The Company also utilizes interest rate caps to facilitate certain asset-backed securitization transactions.
All derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated balance sheets at fair value. In accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC Topic 815), the accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative financial instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship.
Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges are initially recorded in otherOther comprehensive income (loss) (OCI) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects income. The Company assesses, both at the inception of each hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items. No component of a designated hedging derivative financial instrument’s gain or loss is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Derivative financial instruments not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage the Company’s exposure to foreign currency, commodity risks, and interest rate risks. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments not designated as hedging instruments are recorded directly in income.

The Company is exposed to credit loss risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties to its derivative financial instruments. Although no assurances can be given, the Company does not expect any of the counterparties to its derivative financial instruments to fail to meet their obligations. To manage credit loss risk, the Company evaluates counterparties based on credit ratings and, on a quarterly basis, evaluates each hedge’s net position relative to the counterparty’s ability to cover their position.
11.10. Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception. Right-of-use (ROU) assets related to the Company's leases are recorded in Lease assets and lease liabilities are recorded in Accrued liabilities and Lease liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset over the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. The ROU asset also

Table of Contents
includes prepaid lease payments and initial direct costs and is reduced for lease incentives paid by the lessor. The discount rate used to determine the present value is generally the Company's incremental borrowing rate because the implicit rate in the lease is not readily determinable. The lease term used to calculate the ROU asset and lease liabilities includes periods covered by options to extend or terminate when the Company is reasonably certain the lease term will include these optional periods.
In accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (ASC Topic 842), the Company elected the short-term lease practical expedient that allows entities to recognize lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company has also elected the practical expedient under ASC Topic 842 allowing entities to not separate non-lease components from lease components, but instead account for such components as a single lease component for all leases except leases involving assets operated by a third-party.
The Company has operating lease arrangements for sales and administrative offices, manufacturing and distribution facilities, product testing facilities, equipment and vehicles. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from 1 to 1211 years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for periods generally not greater than 5 years and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 year. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased asset. The Company's leases do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Operating lease expense for the three months ended JuneMarch 28, 2021 and March 29, 2020 and June 30, 2019 was $6.5$8.2 million and $6.4$7.3 million, respectively, and $13.8 million and $12.7 million for the six months ended June 28, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. This includes variable lease costs related to leases involving assets operated by a third party of approximately $1.3$3.1 million and $2.0$1.9 million for the three months ended JuneMarch 28, 20202021 and June 30, 2019, respectively, and $3.2 million and $3.2 million for the six months ended June 28,March 29, 2020, and June 30, 2019, respectively. Other variable and short-term lease costs were not material.

12. Asset-Backed Financing
The Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and through asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. In the Company's asset-backed financing programs, the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to special purpose entities (SPEs), which are considered VIEs under U.S. GAAP. Each SPE then converts those assets into cash, through the issuance of debt. The Company retains servicing rights for all of the retail motorcycle finance receivables transferred to SPEs as part of an asset-backed financing. The accounting treatment for asset-backed financings depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE.
In transactions where the Company has power over the significant activities of the VIE and has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that are potentially significant to the VIE, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and consolidates the VIE within its consolidated financial statements. On a consolidated basis, the asset-backed financing is treated as a secured borrowing in this type of transaction and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing.
In transactions where the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company must determine whether it can achieve a sale for accounting purposes under ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing (ASC Topic 860). To achieve a sale for accounting purposes, the assets being transferred must be legally isolated, not be constrained by restrictions from further transfer, and be deemed to be beyond the Company’s control. If the Company does not meet all of these criteria for sale accounting, then the transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing.
If the Company meets all three of the sale criteria above, the transaction is recorded as a sale for accounting purposes and is referred to as an off-balance sheet asset-backed financing. Upon sale, the retail motorcycle finance receivables are removed from the Company’s Consolidated balance sheets and a gain or loss is recognized for the difference between the cash proceeds received, the assets derecognized, and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction. The gain or loss on sale is included in Financial Services revenue on the Consolidated statements of operations.
The Company is not required, and does not currently intend, to provide any additional financial support to the on- or off-balance sheet VIEs associated with these transactions. Investors and creditors in these transactions only have recourse to the assets held by the VIEs.

On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Securitization VIEs – The Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs which in turn issue secured notes to investors, with various maturities and interest rates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. Each on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPE is a separate legal entity, and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitizations are only available for payment of the secured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transactiontransactions and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors until the associated secured debt and other obligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the SPEs are used only to support the securitizations. There are no amortization schedules for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes currently have various contractual maturities ranging from 20212022 to 2028.
The Company is the primary beneficiary of its on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIEs because it retains servicing rights and a residual interest in the VIEs in the form of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic

On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed U.S. Commercial Paper Conduit Facilities VIE –The Until November 25, 2020, the Company hashad two separate agreements with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits, a $300.0 million revolving facility agreement and a $600.0 million revolving facility agreement (together, the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities). On November 25, 2020, the Company amended each revolving facility agreement by consolidating the two agreements into one $900.0 million revolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits under which itconduits. Under the revolving facility agreement, the Company may transfer U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE, which in turn may issue debt to those third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits.

In November 2019, the Company renewed its existing $600.0 million and the amended $300.0$900.0 million revolving facility agreements with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. Availability under the revolving facilities (together, the(the U.S. Conduit Facilities)Facility) is based on, among other things, the amount of eligible U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables held by the SPE as collateral.
Under the U.S. Conduit Facilities,Facility, the assets of the SPE are restricted as collateral for the payment of the debt or other obligations arising in the transaction and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing commercial paper rates if funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper. If not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper, the terms of the interest are based on LIBOR. In each of these cases, a program fee is assessed based on the outstanding principal. The U.S. Conduit FacilitiesFacility also provideprovides for an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment. When calculating the unused fee, the aggregate commitment for the $300.0 million agreement does not include any unused portion of the $300.0 million incrementaladditional borrowings allowed. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the U.S. Conduit Facilities,Facility, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables held by the SPE is approximately 54 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, as of JuneMarch 28, 2020,2021, the U.S. Conduit Facilities haveFacility has an expiration date of November 25, 2020.19, 2021.

On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Canadian Commercial Paper Conduit Facility – In June 2020, the Company renewed its facility agreement (Canadian Conduit) with a Canadian bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduit. Under the agreement, the Canadian Conduit is contractually committed, at the Company's option, to purchase eligible Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables for proceeds up to C$220.0 million. The transferred assets are restricted as collateral for the payment of the associated debt. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing market interest rates plus a specified margin. The Canadian Conduit also provides for a program fee and an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment of C$220.0 million. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to

outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the Canadian Conduit, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables is approximately 54 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement between the Company and the lenders, as of JuneMarch 28, 2020,2021, the Canadian Conduit has an expiration date of June 25, 2021.
The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE; therefore, the Company does not consolidate the VIE. However, the Company treats the conduit facility as a secured borrowing as it maintains effective control over the assets transferred to the VIE and, therefore, does not meet the requirements for sale accounting.
As the Company participates in and does not consolidate the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE, the maximum exposure to loss associated with this VIE, which would only be incurred in the unlikely event that all the finance receivables and underlying collateral have no residual value, was $79.3$17.8 million at JuneMarch 28, 2020.2021. The maximum exposure is not an indication of the Company's expected loss exposure.
QuarterlyThere were 0 finance receivable transfers under the Canadian Conduit Facility during the first quarter of 2021. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company transferred $77.9 million of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit and the respectivefor proceeds were as follows (in thousands):

Similar to an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization, the Company transferred U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which in turn issued secured notes to investors, with various maturities and interest rates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. The off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPE iswas a separate legal entity, and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitization arewere only available for payment of the secured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transaction and arewere not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. In an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. As part of this off-balance sheet securitization, the Company did not retain any financial interest in the VIE beyond servicing rights and ordinary representations and warranties and related covenants.
The Company iswas not the primary beneficiary of the off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE because it only retained servicing rights and doesdid not have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE which could potentially be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, this transaction met the accounting sale requirements under ASC Topic 860 and was recorded as a sale for accounting purposes. Upon the sale in 2016, the retail motorcycle finance receivables were removed from the Company’s Consolidated balance sheets and a gain was recognized for the difference between the cash proceeds received, the assets derecognized and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction. The gain on sale was included in Financial Services revenue on the Consolidated statements of operations. In April 2020, this off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE was repurchased for $27.4 million.
Servicing Activities The Company services all retail motorcycle finance receivables that it originates. When the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs through asset-backed financings, the Company retains the right to service the finance receivables and receives servicing fees based on the securitized finance receivables balance and certain ancillary fees. In on-balance sheet asset-backed financings, servicing fees are eliminated in consolidation and therefore are not recorded on a consolidated basis. In off-balance sheet asset-backed financings, servicing fees and ancillary fees are recorded in Financial Services revenue on the Consolidated statements of operations. The fees the Company is paid for servicing represent adequate compensation, and consequently, the Company does not recognize a servicing asset or liability. The Company repurchased the finance receivables associated with the off-balance sheet securitization VIE in April 2020. As such, the Company did not recognize any servicing fee income in 2021. The Company recognized servicing fee income of $0.1 million and $0.3 million during the six months ended June 28, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

14.13. Fair Value
The Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy.
Level 1 inputs include quoted prices for identical instruments and are the most observable.
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and observable inputs such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and yield curves. The Company uses the market approach to derive the fair value for its Level 2 fair value measurements. Foreign currency contracts, commodity contracts, cross-currency swaps and treasury rate lockslock contracts are valued using quoted forward rates and prices; interest rate swaps and caps are valued using quoted interest rates and yield curves; investments in marketable securities and cash equivalents are valued using quoted prices.
Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market and include the Company's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Finance Receivables, net – The carrying value of retail and wholesale finance receivables is amortized cost less an allowance for credit losses. The fair value of retail finance receivables is generally calculated by discounting future cash flows using an estimated discount rate that reflects current credit, interest rate and prepayment risks associated with similar types of instruments. Fair value is determined based on Level 3 inputs. The amortized cost basis of wholesale finance receivables approximates fair value because they are generally either short-term or have interest rates that adjust with changes in market interest rates.
Deposits, net – The carrying value of deposits is amortized cost. The fair value of deposits is estimated based upon rates currently available for deposits with similar terms and maturities. Fair value is calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value due to its short maturity.3 inputs.
Debt – The carrying value of debt is generally amortized cost, net of discounts and debt issuance costs. The fair value of unsecured commercial paper and credit facility borrowings are calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value due to its short maturity. The fair value of debt provided under the U.S. Conduit Facilities and Canadian Conduit Facility is calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value since the interest rates charged under the facilityfacilities are tied directly to market rates and fluctuate as market rates change. The fair values of the medium-term notes and senior notes are estimated based upon rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of the fixed-rate debt related to on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions is estimated based on pricing currently available for transactions with similar terms and maturities (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of the floating-rate debt related to on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions is calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value since the interest rates charged are tied directly to market rates and fluctuate as market rates change.

16. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, product and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to these items, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss. Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomes available for each matter.
Environmental Protection Agency Notice – In December 2009, the Company received formal, written requests for information from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding: (i) certificates of conformity for motorcycle emissions and related designations and labels, (ii) aftermarket parts, and (iii) warranty claims on emissions related components. The Company promptly submitted written responses to the EPA’s inquiry and has engaged in information exchanges and discussions with the EPA. In August 2016, the Company entered into a consent decree with the EPA regarding these issues, and the consent decree was subsequently revised in July 2017 (the Settlement). In the Settlement, the Company agreed to, among other things, pay a fine, and not sell tuning products unless they are approved by the EPA or California Air Resources Board. In December 2017, the Department of Justice (DOJ), on behalf of the EPA, filed the Settlement with the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia for the purpose of obtaining court approval of the Settlement. Three amicus briefs opposing portions of the Settlement were filed with the court by the deadline of January 31, 2018. On March 1, 2018, the Company and the DOJ each filed separate response briefs. The Company is awaiting the court's decision on whether or not to finalize the Settlement, and on February 8, 2019 the DOJ filed a status update reminding the court of the current status of the outstanding matter. The Company has an accrual associated with this matter recorded in Accrued liabilities on the

Consolidated balance sheets, and as a result, if it is finalized, the Settlement would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. The Settlement is not final until it is approved by the court, and if it is not approved by the court, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the impact of any remedies the EPA might seek beyond the Company's current reserve for this matter.
York Environmental Matter – The Company is involved with government agencies and the U.S. Navy related to a matter involving the cleanup of soil and groundwater contamination at its York, Pennsylvania facility. The York facility was formerly used by the U.S. Navy and AMF prior to the purchase of the York facility by the Company from AMF in 1981. The Company has an agreement with the U.S. Navy which calls for the U.S. Navy and the Company to contribute amounts into a trust equal to 53% and 47%, respectively, of costs associated with environmental investigation and remediation activities at the York facility (Response Costs). A site wide remedial investigation/feasibility study and a proposed final remedy for the York facility have been completed and approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and the EPA.United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The associated cleanup plan documents were approved in February 2020 and the remaining cleanup activities are expected to begin later in late 2020 or early 2021. The Company has an accrual for its share of the estimated future Response Costs recorded in Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets.
Product Liability Matters – The Company is periodically involved in product liability suits related to the operation of its business. The Company accrues for claim exposures that are probable of occurrence and can be reasonably estimated. The Company also maintains insurance coverage for product liability exposures. The Company believes that its accruals and insurance coverage are adequate and that product liability suits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s Consolidatedconsolidated financial statements.statements.

Belgium that, following a request from the European Union (EU), the Company would be subject to the revocation of Binding Origin Information (BOI) rulings, effective April 19, 2021. Beginning in 2019, the Company has operated under BOIs which allowed it to supply its EU markets with certain motorcycles produced at its Thailand manufacturing facility at tariff rates of 6%. Following the revocation, all non-electric motorcycles that Harley-Davidson imports into the EU, regardless of origin, will be subject to a total tariff rate of 31% from April 19, 2021 through May 31, 2021. This rate is expected to increase to 56% effective June 1, 2021. This ruling will effectively prohibit the Company from functioning competitively in the EU. The Company estimates the impact of the additional EU tariffs in 2021, if unmitigated, to be approximately $135 million and expects the impact to be approximately $200 million to $225 million on annual basis in future years. The Company is appealing the revocation of the BOIs. It has also sought temporary extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate for motorcycles produced in Thailand, ordered prior to April 19, 2021. There is no assurance that the appeal will be successful or that the Company will receive the extended reliance.

Overview(1)
During the second quarter of 2020, theThe Company's operations and financial results were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company incurred a net loss of $92.2income was $259.1 million, or $0.60$1.68 per diluted share, in the secondfirst quarter of 2020,2021, compared to net income of $195.6$69.7 million, or $1.23$0.45 per diluted share, in the secondfirst quarter of 2019.2020. The Motorcycles segment reported an operating loss of $121.0 million, down $301.8 million from operating income of $180.7$227.5 million for the secondfirst quarter of 2019. The current year operating loss2021 which was due primarily toup $143.0 million over the first quarter of 2020. Operating income from the Motorcycles segment for the first quarter of 2021 was favorably impacted by a 58.7% decline3.5% increase in wholesale motorcycle shipments, reflecting the suspension of global manufacturing during the quarter resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Motorcycles segment operating results were also impacted by unfavorable foreign currency, unfavorable manufacturing costsfavorable product mix, lower sales incentives and higher restructuring expenses, partially offset by lowerreduced selling, administrative and engineering expenses.
Operating income from the Financial Services segment in the secondfirst quarter of 20202021 was $4.9$118.6 million, down 93.5%up 417.0% compared to the year-ago quarter due primarily to a higherlower provision for credit losses and higher interest expense. The provision for credit losses was adversely affected by unfavorable economic conditions and also reflects the impact of a new accounting standard that changed how companies recognize expected credit losses on financial instruments. The new standard requires recognition of full lifetime expected credit losses upon initial recognition of a financial instrument, replacing the prior, incurred loss methodology. The Company adopted the new accounting standard on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach. As a result, prior period results were not restated.losses.
Worldwide independent dealer retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles in the secondfirst quarter of 2021 were up 9.4% compared to the first quarter of 2020 were down 26.6%led by a 30.6% increase in the U.S., partially offset by declines in Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA) and Latin America.

OutlookGuidance(1)
Given the strong 2021 first quarter performance, the Company has increased its guidance for the full year. The decision to increase guidance was based on several key factors. First, the Company has better clarity on the cost impact of supply chain challenges and its ability to adapt to those challenges. Also, the economic outlook has improved with falling unemployment numbers, recent federal stimulus in the U.S. and continued progress on the global COVID-19 vaccine roll-out. The Company also has a better read on demand for its new model year 2021 motorcycles, which has been stronger than it had anticipated, particularly in the most profitable segments of Touring and Large Cruiser motorcycles. As a result, for the full-year 2021, the Company now expects:
Motorcycles segment revenue growth of 30% to 35%, an increase from the previous guidance of 20% to 25%.
Motorcycles segment operating income margin of 7% to 9%, up from the previous guidance of 5% to 7%, assuming the Company can successfully mitigate the impact of the uncertainty surroundingadditional European Union (EU) tariffs discussed below. This increase reflects an improved demand outlook and confidence in the magnitudeCompany's ability to continue navigating through the global supply chain headwinds.
If the Company is unable to mitigate the impact of the additional EU tariffs to any extent in 2021, the Company expects Motorcycles segment operating income margin of 5% to 7%, in line with the original guidance.
Financial Services segment operating income growth of 50% to 60%, an increase from the previous guidance of 10% to 15%, driven primarily by a favorable provision for credit losses.
Additionally, for the full-year 2021, the Company continues to expect capital expenditures of $190 million to $220 million.
Within 2021, the Company expects (a) approximately 60% of the total annual Motorcycles segment revenue to occur in the first half of the year driven by momentum from the model year 2021 launch through the riding season and duration(b) assuming the Company can successfully mitigate the impact of the additional EU tariffs discussed below, Motorcycles segment operating margin percent to be in the mid-teens during the first half of 2021 and near break-even in the second half of 2021.
In the second half of 2021, the Company expects retail inventory to decrease from its expected peak level at the end of the second quarter. In the fourth quarter the Company will prepare its manufacturing facilities to begin production of model year 2022 motorcycles. The Company believes the pattern for inventory and shipments in the second half of 2021 will be similar to what the Company experienced in the second half of 2020. In addition, during 2020, the Company benefited from cost reductions associated with COVID-19 pandemic cash preservation efforts, which started in the second quarter of 2020, and The Rewire restructuring savings, which started in the third quarter of 2020. Refer to "Restructuring Plan Costs and Savings" for additional discussion.
Additional EU Tariffs(1)
In April 2021, the Company received notification from the Economic Ministry of Belgium that, following a request from the EU, the Company would be subject to the revocation of Binding Origin Information (BOI) rulings, effective April 19, 2021. Beginning in 2019, the Company has operated under BOIs which allowed it to supply its EU markets with certain motorcycles produced at its Thailand manufacturing facility at tariff rates of 6%. Following the revocation, all non-electric motorcycles that Harley-Davidson imports into the EU, regardless of origin, will be subject to a total tariff rate of 31% from April 19, 2021 through May 31, 2021. This rate is expected to increase to 56% effective June 1, 2021. This ruling will effectively prohibit the Company from functioning competitively in the EU. The Company estimates the impact of the additional EU tariffs in 2021, if unmitigated, to be approximately $135 million and expects the impact to be approximately $200 million to $225 million on annual basis in future years. The Company is appealing the revocation of the BOIs. It has also sought temporary extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate for motorcycles produced in Thailand, ordered prior to April 19, 2021. There is no assurance that the appeal will be successful or that the Company will receive the extended reliance.
COVID-19 Pandemic
The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on future results depends on future developments, such as the Company withdrew all of its forward-looking guidance on March 26, 2020. While the impacts on demand, facility closures and other restrictions are expected to be temporary, theultimate duration and financialscope of the pandemic, the success of vaccination programs, and its impact toon the Company are unknown at this time. To the extent theseCompany's customers, independent dealers, distributors, and suppliers.

Worldwide retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles were down 26.6% during the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same period last year reflecting the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic including the temporary closure of independent dealers. Retail sales declined across all of the Company's markets within North America, EMEA and Latin America. Retail sales also declined in most of the Company's markets within Asia Pacific; however, these declines were partially offset by retail sales growth in China and South Korea.
U.S. industry registrations of new 601+cc motorcycles were down 11.3% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2019. The Company's U.S. market share of new 601+cc motorcycles for the second quarter of 2020 was 38.5%, down 8.1 percentage points from the same period last year (source: Motorcycle Industry Council). The Company's U.S. market share was impacted by the Company's new approach to its supply and inventory management, growth in segments outside of the Company's stronghold (Touring and Cruiser) segments, increased promotions from competitors and a decline in the Company's fleet sales.
The Company is taking a new approach to its supply and inventory management, as discussed under "The Rewire." The new approach is focused on profitable and desirable volume aimed at helping drive retail pricing to preserve the value and desirability of Harley-Davidson motorcycles for customers. Under this approach, the Company will continue to aggressively manage the supply of motorcycles into the independent dealer network as it manages through the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond. The Company is encouraged by the value that it believes was driven by its new supply and inventory management in the second quarter of 2020. On average, new Harley-Davidson motorcycles were selling at Manufacturer Suggested Retail Prices in the U.S. during the second quarter. In addition, the Company observed a meaningful increase in used Harley-Davidson motorcycle pricing at retail and at auction in the U.S. during the second quarter of 2020.
At the end of the second quarter of 2020, worldwide independent dealer retail inventory of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles was down approximately 32%, or 22,300 motorcycles, including 17,000 fewer in the U.S., compared to the second quarter of 2019.

Motorcycle shipments in the second quarter of 2020 were lower than the same period last year due to the temporary suspension of the Company's global manufacturing operations resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company's Thailand manufacturing facility was closed through April and U.S. manufacturing facilities were closed through May. The mix of Touring motorcycles shipped during the second quarter of 2020 decreased as a percent of total shipments while the mix of Cruiser motorcycles increased compared to the same period last year.

Factors affecting the comparability of net revenue, cost of goods sold and gross profit from the second quarter of 2019 to the second quarter of 2020 were as follows:
The decrease in volume was due to lower wholesale motorcycle shipments and lower parts & accessories and general merchandise sales, partially offset by lower sales incentive costs.
On average, wholesale prices for motorcycles shipped in the current period were higher than in the same period last year resulting in a favorable impact on revenue. The positive impact on revenue was partially offset by increased costs related to the additional content added to motorcycles shipped in the current period as compared to the same period last year.
Revenue and gross profit were adversely impacted by weaker foreign currency exchange rates, relative to the U.S. dollar, as compared to the same period last year.
Changes in the shipment mix between motorcycle families had an adverse impact on revenue and gross profit in the current quarter compared to the same period last year. Additionally, unfavorable mix within parts and accessories contributed to the impact.
Manufacturing and other costs were adversely impacted by lower fixed-cost absorption and productivity related to the temporary suspension of global manufacturing as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. These unfavorable impacts were partially offset by a reduction in tariff costs and the absence of temporary inefficiencies related to the Company's restructuring activities that were incurred in the prior year. The impact of recent tariffs was $7.1 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $34.4 million in the second quarter of 2019 as the Company began to wholesale Thailand-sourced motorcycles in the European Union (EU) in the current year quarter. The impact of recent tariffs includes incremental EU and China tariffs imposed beginning in 2018 on the Company's products shipped from the U.S., as well as incremental U.S. tariffs imposed beginning in 2018 on certain items imported from China.
Operating expenses were lower in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same period last year due to lower spending as the Company aggressively managed cost, partially offset by increases in restructuring expenses.

Interest income was favorable in the second quarter of 2020 due to a higher average retail yield, partially offset by lower average outstanding wholesale receivables at a lower average yield. Other income was unfavorable primarily due to a decrease in investment income and insurance related revenue.
Interest expense increased in the second quarter of 2020 due to higher average outstanding debt, partially offset by a lower cost of funds.
The provision for credit losses increased $64.8 million compared to the second quarter of 2019. The retail motorcycle provision increased $66.5 million driven by an increase in the allowance for credit losses resulting from the deterioration of the Company’s outlook on economic conditions during the second quarter of 2020. The Company expects that existing recessionary economic conditions could be prolonged with a slow economic recovery. The Company’s expectations surrounding its economic forecasts may change in future periods as additional information becomes available.
This increase in the allowance for credit losses was partially offset by lower retail credit losses. Credit losses were favorably impacted by the high volume of COVID-19 related retail loan payment-due-date extensions for qualified customers, which resulted in fewer past due accounts and lower related losses during the second quarter.
The allowance for credit losses at June 28, 2020 was determined in accordance with ASU 2016-13, a new accounting standard adopted on January 1, 2020 that changed how companies recognize expected credit losses on financial instruments. The new standard requires recognition of full lifetime expected credit losses upon initial recognition of a financial instrument, replacing the prior, incurred loss methodology. The Company adopted the new accounting standard using a modified retrospective approach. As a result, prior period results were not restated.
Operating expenses decreased $7.3 million compared to the second quarter of 2019 in part driven by lower employee related costs and consulting expense.

The allowance30-day delinquency rate for credit lossesretail motorcycle loans at JuneMarch 28, 2021 was 2.14% compared to 3.37% at March 29, 2020. The improved delinquency rate was primarily driven by the benefits provided by U.S. federal stimulus packages as well as continued COVID-19 pandemic-related extensions granted to help customers get through financial difficulties associated with the pandemic. During the first quarter of 2021, the volume of payment extensions declined from the levels experienced during the second quarter and into the third quarter of 2020 was determinedbut has not yet returned to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels. The Company continues to grant payment extensions to customers in accordance with ASU 2016-13, a new accounting standard adopted on January 1, 2020 that changed how companies recognize expected credit losses on financial instruments. The new standard requires recognition of full lifetime expected credit losses upon initial recognition of a financial instrument, replacing the prior, incurred loss methodology. The Company adopted the new accounting standard using a modified retrospective approach. As a result, prior period results were not restated.

Other Matters
Critical Accounting Estimates
As a result of the January 1, 2020 adoption ASU 2016-13, the Company has updated the Critical Accounting Estimate disclosure from Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 as follows:
Allowance for Credit Losses on Retail Finance Receivables – The allowance for credit losses represents the Company’s estimate of future lifetime losses for its retail finance receivables portfolio. The Company performs a collective evaluation of the adequacy of its retail allowance for credit losses. Subsequent to the January 1, 2020 adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company utilizes a vintage-based loss forecast methodology that includes decompositions for probability of default, exposure at default, attrition rate, and recovery balance rate. Reasonable and supportable economic forecasts for a two-year period are incorporated into the methodology to reflect the estimated impact of changes in future economic conditions, such as unemployment rates, household obligations or other relevant factors, over the expected life of the retail portfolio. For periods beyond the Company’s reasonable and supportable forecasts, the Company reverts to its average historical loss experience for a three-year period using a mean-reversion process. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or term as well as other relevant factors.
Contractual Obligations
As of June 28, 2020, the Company has updated the contractual obligations table from Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 to reflect the new projected principal and interest payments for the remainder of 2020 and beyond as follows (in thousands):

Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, product and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to these items, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss. Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomes available for each matter.
Environmental Protection Agency Notice – In December 2009, the Company received formal, written requests for information from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding: (i) certificates of conformity for motorcycle emissions and related designations and labels, (ii) aftermarket parts, and (iii) warranty claims on emissions related components. The Company promptly submitted written responses to the EPA’s inquiry and has engaged in information exchanges and discussions with the EPA. In August 2016, the Company entered into a consent decree with the EPA regarding these issues, and the consent decree was subsequently revised in July 2017 (the Settlement). In the Settlement, the Company agreed to, among other things, pay a fine, and not sell tuning products unless they are approved by the EPA or California Air Resources Board. In December 2017, the Department of Justice (DOJ), on behalf of the EPA, filed the Settlement with the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia for the purpose of obtaining court approval of the Settlement. Three amicus briefs opposing portions of the Settlement were filed with the court by the deadline of January 31, 2018. On March 1, 2018, the Company and the DOJ each filed separate response briefs. The Company is awaiting the court's decision on whether or not to finalize the Settlement, and on February 8, 2019, the DOJ filed a status update reminding the court of the current status of the outstanding matter. The Company has an accrual associated with this matter recorded in Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets, and as a result, if it is finalized, the Settlement would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. The Settlement is not final until it is approved by the court, and if it is not approved by the court, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the impact of any remedies the EPA might seek beyond the Company's current reserve for this matter.
York Environmental Matter – The Company is involved with government agencies and the U.S. Navy related to a matter involving the cleanup of soil and groundwater contamination at its York, Pennsylvania facility. The York facility was formerly used by the U.S. Navy and AMF prior to the purchase of the York facility by the Company from AMF in 1981. The Company has an agreement with the U.S. Navy which calls for the U.S. Navy and the Company to contribute amounts into a trust equal to 53% and 47%, respectively, of costs associated with environmental investigation and remediation activities at the York facility (Response Costs). A site wide remedial investigation/feasibility study and a proposed final remedy for the York facility have been completed and approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and the EPA. The associated cleanup plan documents were approved in February 2020 and the remaining cleanup activities are expected to begin in late 2020 or early 2021. The Company has an accrual for its share of the estimated future Response Costs recorded in Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets.
Product Liability Matters – The Company is periodically involved in product liability suits related to the operation of its business. The Company accrues for claim exposures that are probable of occurrence and can be reasonably estimated. The Company also maintains insurance coverage for product liability exposures. The Company believes that its accruals and insurance coverage are adequate and that product liability suits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s Consolidated financial statements.(1)
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and through asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. In the Company's asset-backed financing programs, the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to special purpose entities (SPEs), which are considered variable interest entities (VIEs) under U.S. GAAP. Each SPE then converts those assets into cash, through the issuance of debt. The Company retains servicing rights for all of the retail motorcycle finance receivables transferred to SPEs as part of an asset-backed financing.
The SPEs are separate legal entities that assume the risks and rewards of ownership of the retail motorcycle finance receivables they hold. The assets of the VIEs are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. The Company’s economic exposure related to the VIEs is generally limited to restricted cash reserve accounts, retained interests and ordinary representations and warranties and related covenants. The VIEs have a limited life and generally terminate upon final distribution of amounts owed to investors.
The accounting treatment for asset-backed financings depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE. Most of the Company’s asset-backed financings do not meet the criteria to be treated as a sale for accounting purposes as the Company, in addition to retaining servicing rights, retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. These transactions are treated as secured borrowings. As secured

borrowings, the retail motorcycle finance receivables remain on the balance sheet with a corresponding obligation reflected as debt.
During 2016, the Company sold finance receivables with a principal balance of $301.8 million into a securitization VIE. The transaction met the criteria to be treated as a sale for accounting purposes and resulted in an off-balance sheet arrangement as the Company did not retain any financial interest in the VIE beyond servicing rights and ordinary representations and warranties and related covenants. In April 2020, this off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE was repurchased for $27.4 million.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company transferred $195.3 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $163.6 million of debt under the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities and the respective proceeds were as follows (in thousands):

The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing commercial paper rates if funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper. If not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper, the terms of the interest are based on LIBOR.

Asset-Backed Securitization VIEs – For all of its asset-backed securitization transactions, the Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to separate VIEs, which in turn issue secured notes with various maturities and interest rates to investors. All of the notes held by the VIEs are secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. The U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitization transactions are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company's creditors until the associated debt and other obligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the VIEs are used only to support the securitizations.
The accounting treatment for asset-backed securitizations depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE. The Company's current outstanding asset-backed securitizations do not meet the criteria to be accounted for as a sale because, in addition to retaining servicing rights, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. These transactions are treated as secured borrowings. As secured borrowings, the retail motorcycle finance receivables remain on the balance sheet with a corresponding obligation reflected as debt. There is no amortization schedule for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes currently have various contractual maturities ranging from 20212022 to 2028.

The Company's operations, demand for its products, and its liquidity could be adversely impacted by work stoppages, facility closures, strikes, natural causes, widespread infectious disease, terrorism, or other factors. Other factors are described in Item 1A. Risk Factors and risk factors that the Company has disclosed in documents previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Many of these risk factors are impacted by the current changing capital, credit and retail markets and the Company's ability to manage through inconsistent economic conditions.
The Company’s ability to sell its motorcycles and related products and services and to meet its financial expectations also depends on the ability of the Company’s independent dealers to sell its motorcycles and related products and services to retail customers. The Company depends on the capability and financial capacity of its independent dealers to develop and implement effective retail sales plans to create demand for the motorcycles and related products and services they purchase from the Company. In addition, the Company’s independent dealers and distributors may experience difficulties in operating their businesses and selling Harley-Davidson motorcycles and related products and services as a result of weather, economic conditions, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, or other factors.
In recent years, HDFS has experienced historically low levels of retail credit losses, but there is no assurance that this will continue. The Company believes that HDFS' retail credit losses may increase over time due to changing consumer credit behavior and HDFS' efforts to increase prudently structured loan approvals to sub-prime borrowers, as well as actions that the Company has taken and could take that impact motorcycle values.
Refer to Item 1A. Risk Factors of this report and Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 for a discussion of additional risk factors and a more complete discussion of some of the cautionary statements noted above.

Tariffs and/or other developments with respect to trade policies, trade agreements and government regulations could have a material adverse impact on the Company's future business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.
Duringresults of operations. To date, the first quarter of 2020,European Union (EU) has placed a 25% incremental tariff (31% total tariff) on motorcycles imported into the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) spread throughout the world and was subsequently recognized as a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has severely restricted the level of economic activity inEU from the U.S. and aroundthat is scheduled to increase to a 50% incremental tariff (56% total tariff) effective June 1, 2021. Shipments of motorcycles to the world. The COVID-19 pandemic has ledEuropean Union are a significant portion of the Company’s total motorcycles sales. Beginning in 2019, the Company obtained regulatory approvals, reflected in five Binding Origin Information (BOI) rulings, that allowed it to supply chain destabilization, facility closures, workforce disruption, and volatilityits EU markets with certain of its motorcycles produced at its Thailand facilities at tariff rates of 6%. In April 2021, the Company received notification from the Economic Ministry of Belgium that, following a request from the European Union, the Company would be subject to the revocation of the BOI rulings, effective April 19, 2021. Following the revocation, non-electric motorcycles Harley-Davidson imports into the European Union, regardless of origin, will be subject to a total tariff rate of 31% from April 19, 2021 to May 31, 2021. This rate is expected to increase to 56% effective June 1, 2021. This ruling will effectively prohibit the Company from functioning competitively in the economy,European Union. The Company is appealing the revocation of the BOIs. It has also sought temporary extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate, for motorcycles produced in Thailand and ordered prior to April 19, 2021. There is no assurance that the appeal will be successful or that the Company will receive the extended reliance. The full impact of the revocation is subject to uncertainties that include the following, among other factors: (i) uncertainties regarding the quantity and mix of motorcycles that the Company imports into the EU; (ii) uncertainties regarding the import prices of motorcycles; (iii) whether the Company will be granted extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate for motorcycles ordered prior to April 19, 2021; (iv) whether the Company will be successful in appealing the revocation of the BOI rulings; (v) uncertainties regarding the size and duration of the EU tariffs; and (vi) whether and to what extent the Company determines to attempt to pass on the impact of the revocation to dealers and its full impactsuccess in doing so.
In addition, the U.S. government imposed increased tariffs on imports from China (Section 301 tariffs), which has resulted in higher costs for components and products sourced from China.
Without limitation, (i) tariffs currently in place, (ii) the imposition by the U.S. government of new tariffs on imports to the U.S. and/or (iii) the imposition by foreign countries of tariffs on U.S. products, including tariffs imposed in response to U.S. tariffs, could materially increase: (a) the cost of Harley-Davidson products that the Company is not yet known.
