Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Interim Financial Statements

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of The Greenbrier Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Greenbrier or the Company) as of ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020, for the three and six months ended February 29, 2020 and for the three and six months ended ~~November 30, 201~~

~~and 201~~

February 28, 2019 have been prepared to reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods indicated. The results of operations for the three and six months ended ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year ending August 31, 2020.

Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form

10-Q.

Therefore, these unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form

10-K.

Management Estimates –

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires judgment on the part of management to arrive at estimates and assumptions on matters that are inherently uncertain. These estimates may affect the amount of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities within the financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are periodically evaluated and may be adjusted in future periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Initial Adoption of Accounting Standards

Lease accounting

On September 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update

2016-02,

Leases

~~(Topic~~ (Topic 842). The new guidance supersedes existing guidance on accounting for leases in Topic 840 and is intended to increase the transparency and comparability of accounting for lease transactions. Topic 842 requires most leases to be recognized on the balance sheet by recording a

right-of-use

(ROU) asset and a lease liability. The liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments. The asset will be based on the liability, subject to adjustment, such as for initial direct costs. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Lessor accounting remains similar to the prior model, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and Topic 606:

Contracts with Customers

The Company adopted the provisions of the new standard using the modified retrospective adoption method, utilizing the simplified transition option ~~available~~ which allows entities to continue to apply the legacy guidance in Topic 840 in the comparative periods presented in the year of adoption. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients,” which allows it to not reassess under the new guidance prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The Company did not elect the

use-of-hindsight

practical expedient. The Company elected to not separate lease and

non-lease

components. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify,

which means it will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for ~~these~~ leases with lease terms of less than twelve months. Following the adoption of Topic 842, the Company will utilize both Topic 842 and Topic 606:

Contracts with Customers

when evaluating retained risk of services and other performance obligations in conjunction with selling railcars with a lease attached as part of the syndication ~~model~~

model.

As a result of adoption, the Company recognized operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities of $40.4 and $41.6 million, respectively, as of September 1, 2019. The Company also recognized an immaterial finance lease asset and corresponding lease liability. Additionally, the Company derecognized certain existing property, plant and equipment and deferred revenue for railcar transactions previously not qualifying as sales due to continuing involvement, that now qualify as sales under the new guidance. The gain associated with this change in accounting, was mostly offset by the recognition of a new guarantee liability. The adoption of this new standard also required the Company to eliminate deferred gains associated with certain sale-leaseback transactions. Additionally, the Company derecognized $9.3 million of existing property, plant and equipment and $12.7 million of deferred revenue for railcar transactions previously not qualifying as sales due to continuing involvement, that now qualify for sale accounting under the new guidance. The gain associated with this change in accounting, was

~~partially~~

~~offset by the recognition of a new guarantee liability.~~ A cumulative-effect adjustment of $4.4 million was recorded

as an increase

Derivatives and Hedging

In August 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update

2017-12,

Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities

(ASU

2017-12).

This update improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an ~~entity’s~~entity's risk management activities in its financial statements and make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance. The guidance expands the ability to qualify for hedge accounting for

non-financial

and financial risk components, reduces complexity in fair value hedges of interest rate risk and eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness, as well as eases certain hedge effectiveness assessment requirements. The Company adopted this guidance effective September 1, 2019 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Prospective Accounting Changes

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update

2016-13,

Financial Instruments – Credit Losses

~~(ASU~~

(ASU 2016-13).

This update introduces a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. The new guidance will apply to loans, accounts receivable, trade receivables, other financial assets measured at amortized cost, loan commitments and other

off-balance

sheet credit exposures. The new guidance will also apply to debt securities and other financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt this guidance beginning September 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Note 2 – Revenue Recognition

Contract balances

Contract assets primarily consist of unbilled receivables related to marine vessel construction and repair services, for which the respective contracts do not yet permit billing at the reporting date. Contract liabilities primarily consist of customer prepayments for manufacturing, maintenance, and other management-type services, for which the Company has not yet satisfied the related performance obligations.

Note 3 – Acquisitions

Manufacturing business of American Railcar Industries, Inc. (ARI)

On July 26, 2019, the Company completed its acquisition of the manufacturing business of ARI for a purchase price of approximately ~~$417.1~~$417.2 million. In connection with the acquisition, the Company acquired ~~two~~2 railcar manufacturing facilities in Arkansas, as well as other facilities which produce a range of railcar components and parts and create enhanced vertical integration for our manufacturing operations. The purchase price

included

approximately $8.5 million for capital expenditures on railcar lining operations and other facility improvements. Included in the acquisition were equity interests in two railcar component manufacturing businesses which Greenbrier ~~will account~~accounts for under the equity method of accounting and ~~recognize~~recognized at their respective fair value as investments in unconsolidated affiliates.

The purchase price was funded by, and consisted of, a combination of cash on hand, the proceeds of a $300 million secured term loan, the issuance to the seller of a $50 million senior convertible note and a payable to the seller for a working capital

true-up

amount.

For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, the

operations contributed by ARI’s manufacturing business generated revenues of

~~103.5~~

$210.7 million and a

net

loss of $

~~2.5~~

$1.5 million,

which are reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as part of the Manufacturing segment.

As a result of the proximity of the acquisition date to August 31, 2019 and as

we did not acquire 100% of ARI,

, the ~~amounts~~values of all assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary. During the measurement period, which may extend up to 12 months after the date of acquisition, the Company will adjust these assets and liabilities if new information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date and revised amounts will be recorded as of that date. The effect of measurement period adjustments to the estimated amounts will be reflected on a prospective basis and were not material during the three months ended ~~November 30, 2019~~

Note 12 – Derivative Instruments

Foreign operations give rise to market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Foreign currency forward exchange contracts with established financial institutions are utilized to hedge a portion of that risk. Interest rate swap agreements are used to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on certain debt. The Company’s foreign currency forward exchange contracts and interest rate swap agreements are designated as cash flow hedges, and therefore the effective portion of unrealized gains and losses is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss.

At ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 exchange rates,

notional amounts of

forward exchange contracts for the purchase of Polish Zlotys and the sale of Euros and Pound Sterling; and the purchase of Mexican Pesos and the sale of U.S. Dollars aggregated to ~~$71.4~~$54.1 million. The fair value of the contracts is included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as Accounts payable and accrued liabilities when there is a loss, or as Accounts receivable, net when there is a gain. As the contracts mature at various dates through

May 2022,

, any such gain or loss remaining will be recognized in manufacturing revenue or cost of revenue along with the related transactions. In the event that the underlying transaction does not occur or does not occur in the period designated at the inception of the hedge, the amount classified in accumulated other comprehensive loss would be reclassified to the results of operations in Interest and foreign exchange at the time of occurrence. At ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 exchange rates, approximately ~~$1.0~~$0.5 million would be reclassified to revenue or cost of revenue in the next year.

At ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, an interest rate swap agreement maturing in September 2023

had a notional amount of ~~$108.6~~$107.6 million and an interest rate swap agreement maturing June 2024 had a notional amount of ~~$150.0 million~~

.$148.1 million. The fair value of the ~~contract~~

contracts are

included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities when there is a loss, or in Accounts receivable, net when there is a gain. As interest expense on the underlying debt is recognized, amounts corresponding to the interest rate swap are reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss and charged or credited to interest expense. At ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 interest rates, approximately ~~$1.2~~$2.9 million would be reclassified to interest expense in the next year.

Note 13 – Segment Information

The Company operates in 3

reportable segments: Manufacturing; Wheels, Repair & Parts; and Leasing & Services.

The accounting policies of the segments are described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form

10-K.

Performance is evaluated based on Earnings from operations. Corporate includes selling and administrative costs not directly related to goods and services and certain costs that are intertwined among segments due to our integrated business model. The Company does not allocate Interest and foreign exchange or Income tax expense for either external or internal reporting purposes. Intersegment sales and transfers are valued as if the sales or transfers were to third parties. Related revenue and margin are eliminated in consolidation and therefore are not included in consolidated results in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

The information in the following ta

letable is derived directly from the segments’ internal financial reports used for corporate management ~~purposes~~

purposes.

Lessee

The Company leases railcars, real estate, and certain equipment under operating and, to a lesser extent, finance lease arrangements. As of and for the three and six months ended ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, finance leases were not a material component of the ~~Company’s~~Company's lease portfolio.The Company’s real estate and equipment leases have remaining lease terms ranging from less than one year to 79 years, with some including options to extend up to 15 years. The Company recognizes a lease liability and corresponding

right-of-use

(ROU) asset based on the present value of lease payments. To determine the present value of lease payments, as most of its leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement date.

The Company gives consideration to its recent debt issuances as well as publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics when estimating its incremental borrowing rate.

The components of operating lease costs were as follows:

may be joint and several with other potentially responsible parties) as well as for natural resource damages resulting from releases of hazardous substances to the site. Ten private and public entities, including the Company (the Lower Willamette Group or LWG), signed an Administrative Order on Consent (AOC) to perform a remedial investigation/feasibility study (RI/FS) of the Portland Harbor Site under EPA oversight, and several additional entities have not signed such consent, but nevertheless contributed money to the effort. The

EPA-mandated

RI/FS was produced by the LWG and cost over $110 million during a

17-year

period. The Company bore a percentage of the total costs incurred by the LWG in connection with the investigation. The ~~Company’s~~Company's aggregate expenditure during the

17-year

period was not material. Some or all of any such outlay may be recoverable from other responsible parties. The EPA issued its Record of Decision (ROD) for the Portland Harbor Site on January 6, 2017 and accordingly on October 26, 2017, the AOC was ~~terminated~~

terminated.

THE GREENBRIER COMPANIES, INC.

Separate from the process described above, which focused on the type of remediation to be performed at the Portland Harbor Site and the schedule for such remediation, 83 parties, including the State of Oregon and the federal government, entered into a

non-judicial

mediation process to try to allocate costs associated with remediation of the Portland Harbor site. Approximately 110 additional parties signed tolling agreements related to such allocations. On April 23, 2009, the Company and the other AOC signatories filed suit against 69 other parties due to a possible limitations period for some such claims;

Arkema Inc. et al v. A & C Foundry Products, Inc. et al

, U.S. District Court, District of Oregon, Case

#3:09-cv-453-PK.

All but 12 of these parties elected to sign tolling agreements and be dismissed without prejudice, and the case has been stayed by the court until January ~~16, 2020.~~

~~It is likely to be further stayed to allow the allocation process to continue~~

14, 2022.

The ~~EPA’s~~EPA's January 6, 2017 ROD identifies a

clean-up

remedy that the EPA estimates will take 13 years of active remediation, followed by 30 years of monitoring with an estimated undiscounted cost of $1.7 billion. The EPA typically expects its cost estimates to be accurate within a range of

-30%

to +50%, but this ROD states that changes in costs are likely to occur as a result of new data it wants to collect over a

2-year

period prior to final remedy design. The ROD identifies 13 Sediment Decision Units. One of the units, RM9W, includes the nearshore area of the river sediments offshore of the ~~Company’s~~Company's Portland, Oregon manufacturing facility as well as upstream and downstream of the facility. It also includes a portion of the ~~Company’s~~Company's riverbank. The ROD does not break down total remediation costs by Sediment Decision Unit. The ~~EPA’s~~EPA's ROD concluded that more data was needed to better define

clean-up

scope and cost. On December 8, 2017, the EPA announced that Portland Harbor is one of 21 Superfund sites targeted for greater attention. On December 19, 2017, the EPA announced that it had entered a new AOC with a group of four potentially responsible parties to conduct

~~THE GREENBRIER COMPANIES, INC.~~

additional sampling during 2018 and 2019 to provide more certainty about

clean-up

costs and aid the mediation process to allocate those costs. The parties to the mediation, including the Company, ~~have~~ agreed to help fund the additional sampling, which is now complete. The EPA has also requested that potentially responsible parties enter AOCs during 2019 agreeing to conduct remedial design studies. Some parties have signed AOCs and several other parties including the Company have engaged in discussions with EPA regarding the terms of such AOCs. The allocation process is continuing in parallel with the process to define the remediation steps.

The ROD does not address responsibility for the costs of

clean-up,

nor does it allocate such costs among the potentially responsible parties. Responsibility for funding and implementing the ~~EPA’s~~EPA's selected cleanup remedy will be determined at an unspecified later date. Based on the investigation to date, the Company believes that it did not contribute in any material way to contamination in the river sediments or the damage of natural resources in the Portland Harbor Site and that the damage in the area of the Portland Harbor Site adjacent to its property precedes its ownership of the Portland, Oregon manufacturing facility. Because these environmental investigations are still underway, including the collection of new

pre-remedial

design sampling data by EPA, sufficient information is currently not available to determine the ~~Company’s~~Company's liability, if any, for the cost of any required remediation or restoration of the Portland Harbor Site or to estimate a range of potential loss. Based on the results of the pending investigations and future assessments of natural resource damages, the Company may be required to incur costs associated with additional phases of investigation or remedial action, and may be liable for damages to natural resources. In addition, the Company may be required to perform periodic maintenance dredging in order to continue to launch vessels from its launch ways in Portland, Oregon, on the Willamette River, and the ~~river’s~~river's classification as a Superfund site could result in some limitations on future dredging and launch activities. Any of these matters could adversely affect the ~~Company’s~~Company's business and Consolidated Financial Statements, or the value of its Portland property.

On January 30, 2017 the Confederated Tribes and Bands of Yakama Nation sued 33 parties including the Company as well as the United States and the State of Oregon for costs it incurred in assessing alleged natural resource damages to the Columbia River from contaminants deposited in Portland Harbor.

Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation v. Air Liquide America Corp., et al.,

United States Court for the District of Oregon Case No.

3i17-CV-00164-SB.

The complaint does not specify the amount of damages the plaintiff will seek. The case has been stayed until the allocation process is concluded.

THE GREENBRIER COMPANIES, INC.

Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Regulation of Portland Manufacturing Operations

The Company has entered into a Voluntary Cleanup Agreement with the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) in which the Company agreed to conduct an investigation of whether, and to what extent, past or present operations at the Portland property may have released hazardous substances into the environment. The Company has also signed an Order on Consent with the DEQ to finalize the investigation of potential onsite sources of contamination that may have a release pathway to the Willamette River. Interim precautionary measures are also required in the order and the Company is discussing with the DEQ potential remedial actions which may be required. The ~~Company’s~~Company's aggregate expenditure has not been material, however the Company could incur significant expenses for remediation. Some or all of any such outlay may be recoverable from other responsible parties.

Other Litigation, Commitments and Contingencies

In connection with the acquisition of the manufacturing business of ARI, the Company agreed to assume potential legacy liabilities (known and unknown) related to railcars manufactured by ARI. Among these potential liabilities are certain retrofit and repair obligations arising from regulatory actions by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Association of American Railroads. In some cases, the seller shares with the Company the costs of these retrofit and repair obligations. The Company currently is not able to determine if any of these liabilities will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations.

From time to time, Greenbrier is involved as a defendant in litigation in the ordinary course of business, the outcomes of which cannot be predicted with certainty. While the ultimate outcome of such legal proceedings cannot be determined at this time, the Company believes that the resolution of pending litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the ~~Company’s~~Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~THE GREENBRIER COMPANIES, INC.~~

As of ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, the Company had outstanding letters of credit aggregating to ~~$24.9~~$27.5 million associated with performance guarantees, facility leases and workers compensation insurance.

As of ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, the Company had a $4.5 million note receivable from Amsted-Maxion Cruzeiro, its unconsolidated Brazilian castings and components ~~manufacturer and a~~

Note 16 – Fair Value Measures

Certain assets and liabilities are reported at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value, for this disclosure, is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, under a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1

– - observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments;

Level 2

–

- inputs, other than the quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruments, which are observable, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3

–

- unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Executive Summary

We operate in three reportable segments: Manufacturing; Wheels, Repair & Parts; and Leasing & Services. Our segments are operationally integrated. The Manufacturing segment, which currently operates from facilities in the U.S., Mexico, Poland, Romania and Turkey, produces double-stack intermodal railcars, tank cars, conventional railcars, automotive railcar products and marine vessels. The Wheels, Repair & Parts segment performs wheel and axle servicing; railcar repair, refurbishment and maintenance; as well as production of a variety of parts for the rail industry in North America. The Leasing & Services segment owns approximately ~~9,300~~10,300 railcars and provides management services for approximately ~~385,000~~389,000 railcars for railroads, shippers, carriers, institutional investors and other leasing and transportation companies in North America as of ~~November 30, 2019.~~February 29, 2020. Through unconsolidated affiliates we produce rail and industrial components and have an ownership stake in a railcar manufacturer in Brazil and a lease financing warehouse.

Our total manufacturing backlog of railcar units, for direct sale or lease to a third party, as of ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 was approximately ~~28,500~~30,800 units with an estimated value of ~~$3.09~~$3.16 billion. Approximately 4%9% of backlog units and 2%6% of estimated backlog value as of ~~November 30, 2019 was~~February 29, 2020 were associated with our Brazilian manufacturing operations which isare accounted for under the equity method. Backlog units for lease may be syndicated to third parties or held in our own fleet depending on a variety of factors. Multi-year supply agreements are ~~a part of~~common in the rail ~~industry practice.~~industry. A portion of the orders included in backlog reflects an assumed product mix. Under the terms of the orders, the exact mix and pricing will be determined in the future, which may impact backlog. Marine backlog as of ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 was ~~$80~~$59 million.

Our backlog of railcar units and marine vessels is not necessarily indicative of future results of operations. Certain orders in backlog are subject to customary documentation and completion of terms. Customers may attempt to cancel or modify orders in backlog. ~~Subsequent to the quarter, we agreed in principle to remove 575 units in backlog in exchange for financial consideration.~~ Historically, little variation has been experienced between the quantity ordered and the quantity actually delivered, though the timing of deliveries may be modified from time to time. We cannot guarantee that our reported backlog will convert to revenue in any particular period, if at all.

We expect that the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic and the related governmental reaction will negatively impact our business including our liquidity and financial position, results of operations, stock price and ability to convert backlog to revenue among other negative impacts. These risks to our business are more fully described in Part II, item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We are closely monitoring the impact of COVID-19 on all aspects of our business. COVID-19 emerged in Asia at the end of calendar year 2019. Because we have no operations in Asia, the negative impact of COVID-19 did not materially impact our financial condition and results of operations during our quarter ended February 29, 2020. Our business operates within a critical infrastructure sector as established by the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency of the Department of Homeland Security. Thus, as of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report our manufacturing, repair shops, and wheel shops in the United States generally are permitted to continue to operate subject to enhanced safety protocols, both voluntary and government mandated, that are aimed to protect the health of our workforce. The situation is similar in our manufacturing facilities and shops in Mexico, Europe, Brazil and Turkey which also have continued to operate subject to enhanced health and safety protocols. At this time, while we have identified risks discussed in Part II, Item 2A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are unable to predict specifically how the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic and related governmental reaction will negatively impact our business due to numerous uncertainties, including the duration of the pandemic, the impact to our customers, suppliers and employees, actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, including preventing or curtailing the operations of our plants and/or shops, and other consequences. We expect that negative impacts related to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic will be reflected in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended May 31, 2020.

As of July 26, 2019, the consolidated results included the results of the manufacturing business of ARI. This ~~contributed to the increase in~~increased revenue and cost of revenue for the three months ended ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 compared to the prior year.

Through our integrated business model, we provide a broad range of custom products and services in each of our segments, which have various average selling prices and margins. The demand for and mix of products and services delivered changes from period to period, which causes fluctuations in our results of operations.

The ~~27.3% increase~~5.3% decrease in revenue for the three months ended ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 as compared to the three months ended ~~November 30, 2018~~February 28, 2019 was primarily due to a ~~39.3% increase in Manufacturing revenue primarily attributed to a 40.5% increase in the volume of railcar deliveries. This was partially offset by a 20.2%~~27.2% decrease in Wheels, Repair & Parts revenue ~~primarily due to~~from lower wheelset, component and ~~component~~parts volumes due to lower demand, lower repair revenue ~~primarily~~ from four fewer shops in the current period and a decrease in scrap metal pricing.

The ~~27.3% increase~~11.1% decrease in cost of revenue for the three months ended ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 as compared to the three months ended ~~November 30, 2018~~February 28, 2019 was primarily due to a ~~39.3% increase~~28.8% decrease in Wheels, Repair & Parts cost of revenue from lower costs associated with a reduction in wheelset, component and parts volumes and four fewer repair shops in the current period. The decrease in cost of revenue was also due to a 4.7% decline in Manufacturing cost of revenue primarily attributed to a ~~40.5% increase~~17.8% decrease in the volume of railcar deliveries. This was partially offset by an 18.9% decrease in Wheels, Repair & Parts cost of revenue primarily due to lower costs associated with a reduction in wheelset and component volumes and lower costs from four fewer repair shops in the current period.

Margin as a percentage of revenue was ~~12.0%~~13.8% and 8.2% for ~~both~~ the three months ended ~~November 30,~~February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, ~~and 2018.~~respectively. The overall margin as a percentage of revenue was positively impacted by an increase in Manufacturing margin to ~~11.5%~~13.8% from ~~11.4%~~6.9% primarily attributed to a change in product mix partially offset by operating inefficiencies at some of our manufacturing facilities. The overall margin as a percentage of revenue was negatively impacted by a decrease in Wheels, Repair & Parts margin to 5.4% from 7.0% primarily attributed to operating at lower volumes and a ~~decrease in scrap metal pricing.~~

Income Tax

The effective tax rate for the three months ended February 29, 2020 was 28.9% compared to 25.5% for the three months ended February 28, 2019. The increase in the effective rate from the prior year was primarily attributable to net unfavorable discrete items in the current quarter compared to net favorable discrete items in the prior comparable period. Excluding the impact of discrete items in both periods, the effective tax rate was 25.5% for the three months ended February 29, 2020 compared to 29.8% in the prior comparable period which decreased primarily due to the geographic mix of earnings.

The effective tax rate can fluctuate year-to-year due to changes in the mix of foreign and domestic pre-tax earnings. It can also fluctuate with changes in the proportion of pre-tax earnings attributable to our Mexican railcar manufacturing joint venture. The joint venture is treated as a partnership for tax purposes and, as a result, the partnership’s entire pre-tax earnings are included in Earnings before income taxes and earnings from unconsolidated affiliates, whereas only our 50% share of the tax is included in Income tax expense.

THE GREENBRIER COMPANIES, INC.

Earnings (Loss) From Unconsolidated Affiliates

Through unconsolidated affiliates we produce rail and industrial components and have an ownership stake in a railcar manufacturer in Brazil and a lease financing warehouse.

Earnings from unconsolidated affiliates was $1.7 million for the three months ended February 29, 2020 compared to a loss from unconsolidated affiliates of $0.8 million for the three months ended February 28, 2019. The increase in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates was primarily related to earnings from our investment in Axis, a joint venture that manufactures and sells axles to its joint venture partners. We obtained our ownership interest in Axis as part of the acquisition of the manufacturing business of ARI on July 26, 2019.

Noncontrolling Interest

Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interest was $6.4 million for the three months ended February 29, 2020 compared to $3.0 million in the prior comparable period, which primarily represents our joint venture partner's share in the results of operations of our Mexican railcar manufacturing joint venture, adjusted for intercompany sales, and our European partner’s share of the results of our European operations.

As of July 26, 2019, the consolidated results included the results of the manufacturing business of ARI. This increased revenue and cost of revenue for the six months ended February 29, 2020 compared to the prior year.

The 10.3% increase in revenue for the six months ended February 29, 2020 as compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019 was primarily due to a 21.0% increase in Manufacturing revenue primarily attributed to a 10.3% increase in railcar deliveries and a change in product mix. This was partially offset by a 23.9% decrease in Wheels, Repair & Parts revenue primarily due to lower wheelset, component and parts volumes due to lower demand, lower repair revenue primarily from four fewer shops in the current year and a decrease in scrap metal pricing.

The 6.8% increase in cost of revenue for the six months ended February 29, 2020 as compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019 was primarily due to a 16.7% increase in Manufacturing cost of revenue primarily attributed to a 10.3% increase in the volume of railcar deliveries. This was partially offset by a 24.2% decrease in Wheels, Repair & Parts cost of revenue primarily due to lower costs associated with a reduction in wheelset, component and parts volumes and four fewer repair shops in the current period.

Margin as a percentage of revenue was 12.8% and 10.0% for the six months ended February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, respectively. The overall margin as a percentage of revenue was positively impacted by an increase in Manufacturing margin to 12.5% from 9.2% primarily attributed to a change in product mix and a customer order contract modification fee received during the six months ended February 29, 2020.

Net earnings attributable to Greenbrier is impacted by our operating activities and noncontrolling interest associated with our 50/50 joint venture at one of our Mexican railcar manufacturing facilities and our 75% interest in Greenbrier-Astra Rail, both of which we consolidate for financial reporting purposes. The $0.6 million increase in Net earnings attributable to Greenbrier for the six months ended February 29, 2020 as compared to the prior comparable period was primarily attributable to an increase in margin due to a higher volume of railcar deliveries. This was partially offset by higher Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interest. The higher Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interest was a result of our Mexican railcar manufacturing 50/50 joint venture operating at higher volumes and margins.

Wheels, Repair & Parts revenue decreased $56.0 million or 23.9% for the six months ended February 29, 2020 compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to lower wheelset, component and parts volumes due to lower demand, lower repair revenue primarily from four fewer shops in the current year and a decrease in scrap metal pricing.

Wheels, Repair & Parts cost of revenue decreased $53.2 million or 24.2% for the six months ended February 29, 2020 compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to lower costs associated with a reduction in wheelset, component and parts volumes and four fewer repair shops in the current period.

Wheels, Repair & Parts margin as a percentage of revenue increased 0.3% for the six months ended February 29, 2020 compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019. The increase was primarily attributed to efficiencies at our repair shops in the current year. In addition, the six months ended February 28, 2019 was negatively impacted by costs associated with closing sites in our repair network. These factors which had a positive impact to Wheels, Repair & Parts margin as a percentage of revenue as compared to the prior year, were partially offset by a decrease in scrap metal pricing for the six months ended February 29, 2020.

Wheels, Repair & Parts operating profit decreased $1.6 million or 27.0% for the six months ended February 29, 2020 compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in volumes and a decrease in scrap metal pricing.

The Leasing & Services segment generates revenue from leasing railcars from its lease fleet, providing various management services, interim rent on leased railcars for syndication, and the sale of railcars purchased from third parties with the intent to resell. The gross proceeds from the sale of these railcars are recorded in revenue and the costs of purchasing these railcars are recorded in cost of revenue.

Leasing & Services revenue decreased $13.5 million or 16.6% for the six months ended February 29, 2020 compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributed to a decrease in the sale of railcars which we had purchased from third parties with the intent to resell. This was partially offset by higher average volume of rent-producing leased railcars for syndication.

Leasing & Services cost of revenue decreased $12.4 million or 21.9% for the six months ended February 29, 2020 compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the volume of railcars sold that we purchased from third parties partially offset by higher transportation costs.

Leasing & Services margin as a percentage of revenue increased 4.5% for the six months ended February 29, 2020 compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019. Margin as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended February 29, 2020 benefited from fewer sales of railcars that we purchased from third parties which have lower margin percentages. The increase in margin as a percentage of revenue was also due to a higher average volume of rent-producing leased railcars for syndication.

Leasing & Services operating profit decreased $16.0 million or 41.4% for the six months ended February 29, 2020 compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributed to a $12.9 million decrease in net gain on disposition of equipment.

The $10.6 million increase was primarily attributed to a $6.3 million increase in employee related costs and $5.8 million from the addition of the manufacturing business of ARI selling and administrative costs. These were partially offset by $2.6 million in transaction related costs incurred during six months ended February 28, 2019.

Net Gain on Disposition of Equipment

Net gain on disposition of equipment was $10.7 million for the six months ended February 29, 2020 compared to $26.5 million for the prior comparable period. Net gain on disposition of equipment primarily includes the sale of assets from our lease fleet (Equipment on operating leases, net) that are periodically sold in the normal course of business in order to take advantage of market conditions and to manage risk and liquidity; and disposition of property, plant and equipment.

The change in foreign exchange (gain) loss was primarily attributed to the change in the Mexican Peso relative to the U.S. Dollar. The increase in interest and foreign exchange expense was also due to interest expense associated with our $300 million of senior term debt issued in July 2019.

Earnings (Loss) From Unconsolidated Affiliates

Through unconsolidated affiliates we produce rail and industrial components and have an ownership stake in a railcar manufacturer in Brazil and a lease financing warehouse.

Earnings from unconsolidated affiliates was ~~$1.1~~$2.7 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 compared to ~~$0.5~~a loss from unconsolidated affiliates of $0.3 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~November 30, 2018.~~February 28, 2019. The increase in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates was primarily related to earnings from our investment in Axis, a joint venture that manufactures and sells axles to its joint venture partners. We obtained our ownership interest in Axis as part of the acquisition of the manufacturing business of ARI on July 26, 2019.

Noncontrolling Interest

Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interest was ~~$16.3~~$22.7 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 compared to ~~$5.4~~$8.4 million in the prior comparable period, which primarily represents our joint venture ~~partner’s~~partner's share in the results of operations of our Mexican railcar manufacturing joint venture, adjusted for intercompany sales, and our European partner’s share of the results of our European operations.

Senior secured credit facilities, consisting of three components, aggregated to ~~$705.9~~$706.0 million as of ~~November 30, 2019.~~February 29, 2020. We had an aggregate of ~~$342.4~~$451.1 million available to draw down under committed credit facilities as of ~~November 30, 2019.~~February 29, 2020. This amount consists of ~~$266.0~~$382.3 million available on the North American credit facility, ~~$26.4~~$18.8 million on the European credit facilities and $50.0 million on the Mexican railcar manufacturing joint venture credit facilities.

As of ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, a $600.0 million revolving line of credit, maturing June 2024, secured by substantially all of our assets in the U.S. not otherwise pledged as security for term loans, was available to provide working capital and interim financing of equipment, principally for the U.S. and Mexican operations. Advances under this facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.50% or Prime plus 0.50% depending on the type of borrowing. Available borrowings under the credit facility are generally based on defined levels of inventory, receivables, property, plant and equipment and leased equipment, as well as total debt to consolidated capitalization and fixed charges coverage ratios.

As of ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, lines of credit totaling ~~$55.9~~$56.0 million secured by certain of our European assets, with variable rates that range from Warsaw Interbank Offered Rate (WIBOR) plus 1.1% to WIBOR plus 1.5% and Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR) plus 1.1%, were available for working capital needs of our European manufacturing operations. The European lines of credit include a ~~$13.8~~$14.0 million facility which is guaranteed by us. European credit facilities are ~~continually being~~regularly renewed. Currently, these European credit facilities have maturities that range from June 2020 through July 2021.

As of ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, our Mexican railcar manufacturing joint venture had two lines of credit totaling $50.0 million. The first line of credit provides up to $30.0 million. Advances under this facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.0%. The Mexican railcar manufacturing joint venture will be able to draw against this facility through March 2024. The second line of credit provides up to $20.0 million, of which we and our joint venture partner have each guaranteed 50%. Advances under this facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.0%. The Mexican railcar manufacturing joint venture will be able to draw amounts available under this facility through June 2021.

As of ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, outstanding commitments under the ~~senior secured~~$600.0 million revolving line of credit ~~facilities~~ consisted of ~~$24.9~~$27.5 million in letters of credit, which reduced our available borrowings under ~~the North American~~this credit facility, and ~~$29.5~~$37.2 million outstanding under the European credit facilities.

The revolving and operating lines of credit, along with notes payable, contain covenants with respect to us and our various subsidiaries, the most restrictive of which, among other things, limit our ability to: incur additional indebtedness or guarantees; pay dividends or repurchase stock; enter into capital leases; create liens; sell assets; engage in transactions with affiliates, including joint ventures and non U.S. subsidiaries, including but not limited to loans, advances, equity investments and guarantees; enter into mergers, consolidations or sales of substantially all our assets; and enter into new lines of business. The covenants also require certain maximum ratios of debt to total capitalization and minimum levels of fixed charges (interest plus rent) coverage. As of ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, we were in compliance with all such restrictive covenants.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Income taxes

–

-The asset and liability method is used to account for income taxes. We are required to estimate the timing of the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities, make assumptions about the future deductibility of deferred tax assets and assess deferred tax liabilities based on enacted law and tax rates for each tax jurisdiction to determine the amount of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes are provided for the temporary effects of differences between assets and liabilities recognized for financial statement and income tax reporting purposes. Valuation allowances reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that will more likely than not be realized. We recognize liabilities for uncertain tax positions based on whether evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit. It is inherently difficult and subjective to estimate such amounts, as this requires us to estimate the probability of various possible outcomes. We reevaluate these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. Changes in tax law or court interpretations may result in the recognition of a tax benefit or an additional charge to the tax provision.

Warranty accruals

– - Warranty costs to cover a defined warranty period are estimated and charged to operations. The estimated warranty cost is based on historical warranty claims for each particular product type. For new product types without a warranty history, preliminary estimates are based on historical information for similar product types. These estimates are inherently uncertain as they are based on historical data for existing products and judgment for new products. If warranty claims are made in the current period for issues that have not historically been the subject of warranty claims and were not taken into consideration in establishing the accrual or if claims for issues already considered in establishing the accrual exceed expectations, warranty expense may exceed the accrual for that particular product. Conversely, there is the possibility that claims may be lower than estimates. The warranty accrual is periodically reviewed and updated based on warranty trends. However, as we cannot predict future claims, the potential exists for the difference in any one reporting period to be material.

Environmental costs

– - At times we may be involved in various proceedings related to environmental matters. We estimate future costs for known environmental remediation requirements and accrue for them when it is probable that we have incurred a liability and the related costs can be reasonably estimated based on currently available information. If further developments in or resolution of an environmental matter result in facts and circumstances that are significantly different than the assumptions used to develop these reserves, the accrual for environmental remediation could be materially understated or overstated. Adjustments to these liabilities are made when additional information becomes available that affects the estimated costs to study or remediate any environmental issues or when expenditures for which reserves are established are made. Due to the uncertain nature of environmental matters, there can be no assurance that we will not become involved in future litigation or other proceedings or, if we were found to be responsible or liable in any litigation or proceeding, that such costs would not be material to us.

THE GREENBRIER COMPANIES, INC.

Revenue recognition

– - We measure revenue at the amounts that reflect the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for transferring control of goods and services to customers. We recognize revenue either at the point in time or over the period of time that performance obligations to customers are satisfied. Payment terms vary by segment and product type and are generally due within normal commercial terms. Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations (e.g. railcars, maintenance, management services, etc.). For such arrangements, we allocate revenues to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. We have disaggregated revenue from contracts with customers into categories which describe the principal activities from which we generate our revenues.

~~THE GREENBRIER COMPANIES, INC.~~

Manufacturing

Railcars are manufactured in accordance with contracts with customers. We recognize revenue upon our customers’ acceptance of the completed railcars at a specified delivery point. From time to time, we enter into multi-year supply agreements. Each railcar delivery is considered a distinct performance obligation, such that the amounts that are recognized as revenue following railcar delivery are generally not subject to change.

We typically recognize marine vessel manufacturing revenue over time using the cost input method, based on progress toward contract completion measured by actual costs incurred to date in relation to the estimate of total expected costs. This method best depicts our performance in completing the construction of the marine vessel for the customer and is consistent with the percentage of completion method used prior to the adoption of Topic 606.

Wheels, Repair & Parts

We operate a network of wheel, repair and parts shops in North America that provide complete wheelset reconditioning and railcar repair services.

Wheels revenue is recognized when wheelsets are shipped to the customer or when consumed by customers in the case of consignment arrangements. Parts revenue is recognized upon shipment of the parts to the customers.

Repair revenue is typically recognized over time using the cost input method, based on progress toward contract completion measured by actual costs incurred to date in relation to the estimate of total expected costs. This method best depicts our performance in repairing the railcars for the customer. Repair services are typically completed in less than 90 days.

Leasing & Services

We own a fleet of new and used railcars which are leased to third-party customers. Lease revenue is recognized over the lease-term in the period in which it is earned.

Syndication transactions represent new and used railcars which have been placed on lease to a customer and which we intend to sell to an investor with the lease attached. At the time of such sale, revenue and cost of revenue associated with railcars that we have manufactured are recognized in the Manufacturing segment; while revenue and cost of revenue associated with railcars which were obtained from a third-party with the intent to resell ~~them~~ and subsequently sold, are recognized in the Leasing & Services segment.

We enter into multi-year contracts to provide management and maintenance services to customers for which revenue is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term as a stand-ready obligation. Costs to fulfill these contracts are recognized as incurred.

Impairment of long-lived assets

– - When changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of certain long-lived assets may not be recoverable, the assets are evaluated for impairment. If the forecast of undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of the assets to fair value would be recognized in the current period. These estimates are based on the best information available at the time of the impairment and could be materially different if circumstances change. If the forecast of undiscounted future cash flows exceeds the carrying amount of the assets it would indicate that the assets were not impaired.

THE GREENBRIER COMPANIES, INC.

Goodwill and acquired intangible assets

– - We periodically acquire businesses in purchase transactions in which the allocation of the purchase price may result in the recognition of goodwill and other intangible assets. The determination of the value of such intangible assets requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates affect the amount of future period amortization and possible impairment charges.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually during the third quarter. The provisions of ASC 350

Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,

require that we perform this test by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying value. We determine the fair value of our reporting units based on a weighting of income and market approaches. Under the income approach, we calculate the fair value of a reporting unit based on the present value of estimated future cash flows which incorporates expected revenue and margins and the use of discount rates.

~~THE GREENBRIER COMPANIES, INC.~~

Under the market approach, we estimate the fair value based on observed market multiples for comparable businesses. An impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. An impairment loss cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are also tested more frequently if changes in circumstances or the occurrence of events indicates that a potential impairment exists. When changes in circumstances, such as a decline in the market price of our common stock, changes in demand or in the numerous variables associated with the judgments, assumptions and estimates made in assessing the appropriate valuation of goodwill indicate the carrying amount of certain indefinite lived assets may not be recoverable, the assets are evaluated for impairment. If actual operating results were to differ from these assumptions, it may result in an impairment of our goodwill.

Our goodwill balance was ~~$129.5~~$129.7 million as of ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 of which ~~$86.2~~$86.4 million related to our Manufacturing segment and $43.3 million related to our Wheels, Repair & Parts segment.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We have global operations that conduct business in their local currencies as well as other currencies. To mitigate the exposure to transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of each entity, we enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to protect revenue or margin on a portion of forecast foreign currency sales and expenses. At ~~November 30, 2019~~February 29, 2020 exchange rates, notional amounts of forward exchange contracts for the purchase of Polish Zlotys and the sale of Euros and Pound Sterling; and the purchase of Mexican Pesos and the sale of U.S. Dollars aggregated to ~~$71.4~~$54.1 million. Because of the variety of currencies in which purchases and sales are transacted and the interaction between currency rates, it is not possible to predict the impact a movement in a single foreign currency exchange rate would have on future operating results.

In addition to exposure to transaction gains or losses, we are also exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to the net asset position of our foreign subsidiaries. At ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, net assets of foreign subsidiaries aggregated ~~$157.2~~$152.3 million and a 10% strengthening of the U.S. Dollar relative to the foreign currencies would result in a decrease in equity of ~~$15.7~~$15.2 million, or 1.2% of Total equity –- Greenbrier. This calculation assumes that each exchange rate would change in the same direction relative to the U.S. Dollar.

Interest Rate Risk

We have managed a portion of our variable rate debt with interest rate swap agreements, effectively converting ~~$258.6~~$255.7 million of variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. As a result, we are exposed to interest rate risk relating to our revolving debt and a portion of term debt, which are at variable rates. At ~~November 30, 2019, 66%~~February 29, 2020, 65% of our outstanding debt had fixed rates and ~~34%~~35% had variable rates. At ~~November 30, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, a uniform 10% increase in variable interest rates would result in approximately ~~$0.6~~$0.5 million of additional annual interest expense.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

There is hereby incorporated by reference the information disclosed in Note 15 to Consolidated Financial Statements, Part I of this quarterly report.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

This Form

10-Q

should be read in conjunction with the risk factors and information disclosed in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the year ended August 31, 2019. There have been no material changes in the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the year ended August 31, ~~2019.~~2019, except for the risk factors below.

The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic and the governmental reaction to COVID-19 most likely will have a material negative impact on our business, liquidity and financial position, results of operations, stock price, and ability to convert backlog to revenue.

The COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak has been categorized as a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. As human mortality and morbidity increase in numbers and expand geographically, the negative impact on the global economy of the COVID-19 pandemic and related governmental responses have been wide ranging and multi-faceted including historically steep and rapid declines in consumer activity in the geographic markets where we operate, widespread national or local “stay-at-home” orders and travel restrictions that reduce or prevent businesses in most of the world’s large economies from operating, disruptions in global supply chains, steep downturns and price volatility in equities markets, and concern that credit markets will not remain liquid.

COVID-19 and the related governmental reaction most likely will have a material negative impact on our business, liquidity, results of operations, and stock price due to the occurrence of some or all of the following events or circumstances among others:

•

We may be prevented from operating our manufacturing facilities, repair shops, wheel shops or other worksites due to the illness of our employees, “stay-at-home” regulations, and employee reluctance to appear for work.

•

The operations of our customers may be disrupted thereby increasing the likelihood that our customers may attempt to delay or cancel orders, may reduce orders for our products and services in the future or may cease to operate as going concerns.

•

The operations of our suppliers may be disrupted and the markets for the inputs to our business may not operate effectively or efficiently thereby negatively impacting our ability to purchase inputs for our business at efficient prices and in sufficient amounts.

•

We may not be able to manage our business effectively or integrate recent acquisition including ARI due to key employees becoming ill, working from home inefficiently, being unable to travel to our facilities, or being prevented from otherwise engaging in the consortium necessary for effective management.

•

Our indebtedness may increase due to our need to increase borrowing to fund operations during a period of reduced revenue.

•

We may not be able to raise capital efficiently or at all due to a reduction in the value of our assets or illiquidity in the global credit markets.

•

We may need to raise capital, and if we raise capital by issuing equity securities, our common stock may be diluted.

THE GREENBRIER COMPANIES, INC.

•

We may not be able to pay dividends.

•

The market price of our common stock may drop or remain volatile.

•

We may incur significant employee health care costs under our self-insurance programs.

•

The goodwill on our balance sheet may be adjusted downward. We are required to perform an annual impairment review of goodwill and indefinite lived assets which could result in an impairment charge if it is determined that the carrying value of the asset is in excess of the fair value. We perform a goodwill impairment test annually during our third quarter. Since February 29, 2020, the market price of our common stock has declined along with many other registrants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. A sustained decline in the market price of our common price is one of the qualitative factors to be considered when evaluating whether events or changes in circumstances may indicate that it is more likely than not that potential goodwill impairment exists. We will consider this decline and entity-specific and other macroeconomic factors as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic as we perform our annual goodwill impairment test during the third quarter.

The COVID-19 pandemic has not yet been contained and the number of its victims and the extent of negative impact on the global economy cannot be foreseen at this time. The longer the pandemic continues, the more likely that more of the foregoing risks will be realized and that other negative impacts on our business will occur some of which we cannot now foresee. Our business, liquidity, financial position, results of operations and stock price most likely will be adversely impacted.

A change in our product mix or decline in revenue due to shifts in demand or fluctuations in commodity and energy prices could have an adverse effect on our profitability.

We manufacture, lease and repair a variety of railcars. The demand for purchase, lease, or syndication of specific types of railcars and the mix of repair and refurbishment work varies from time to time. Instability and changes in the global economy, volatility in the industries that our products serve or adverse changes in the financial condition of our customers could adversely impact the demand for our railcars. In addition, fluctuations in commodity and energy prices, including crude oil and gas prices, could negatively impact the activities of our customers resulting in a corresponding adverse effect on the demand for our products and services or their ability to meet their contractual obligations including making payments. A decline in oil prices can result from a number of factors including, among others, a decline in commercial activity caused by the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic or oil producing countries increasing the global supply of oil over a sustained period of time. The demand for certain types of railcars generally declines if oil prices remain low relative to the cost of production. Sustained low oil prices can also lead to oil producers ceasing to operate as going concerns thereby further reducing demand for certain types of railcars. These impacts could affect our results of operations and could have an adverse effect on our profitability. Demand for railcars that are used to transport crude oil and other energy related products is dependent on the demand for these commodities. Prices for oil and gas are subject to large fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of, and demand for, oil and gas, market uncertainty and a variety of other economic factors that are beyond our control.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

The Board of Directors has authorized the Company to repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock.
