Contract Estimates
The amount of revenue recognized is usually based on the purchase order price and adjusted for variable consideration, including pricing concessions. The Company accrues for pricing concessions by reducing revenue as products are shipped or delivered. The accruals are based on historical experience, anticipated performance and management’s best judgment. The Company also generally has ongoing adjustments to customer pricing arrangements based on the content and cost of its products. Such pricing accruals are adjusted as they are settled with customers. Customer returns, which are infrequent, are usually related to quality or shipment issues and are recorded as a reduction of revenue. The Company generally does not recognize significant return obligations due to their infrequent nature.
Contract Balances
The Company’s contract assets consist of unbilled amounts associated with variable pricing arrangements in the Asia Pacific region. Once pricing is finalized, contract assets are transferred to accounts receivable. As a result, the timing of revenue recognition and billings, as well as changes in foreign exchange rates, will impact contract assets on an ongoing basis. Contract assets were not materially impacted by any other factors during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2022.March 31, 2023.
The Company’s contract liabilities consist of advance payments received and due from customers. Net contract assets (liabilities) consisted of the following:

10.8. Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value 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. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, a three-tier fair value hierarchy is utilized, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1:Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2:Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3:Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Estimates of the fair value of foreign currency derivative instruments are determined using exchange traded prices and rates. The Company also considers the risk of non-performance in the estimation of fair value and includes an adjustment for non-performance risk in the measure of fair value of derivative instruments. In certain instances where market data is not available, the Company uses management judgment to develop assumptions that are used to determine fair value. Fair value measurements and the fair value hierarchy level for the Company’s assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 20212022 were as follows:

Forward foreign exchange contracts - accrued liabilitiesForward foreign exchange contracts - accrued liabilities(923)(1,535)Level 2Forward foreign exchange contracts - accrued liabilities13 — Level 2
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
In addition to items that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, which are not included in the table above. As these nonrecurring fair value measurements are generally determined using unobservable inputs, these fair value measurements are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, there were no impairment charges recorded. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded impairment charges of $455 due to idle assets in Europe. The fair value was determined using salvage value. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded a loss on the deconsolidation of a joint venture in the Asia Pacific region of $2,257, included in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. For further information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis see Note 2. “Deconsolidation and Divestiture” and Note 7. “Property, Plant and Equipment.Sale-Leaseback.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. The Company enters into derivative instruments primarily to hedge portions of its forecasted foreign currency denominated cash flows and designates these derivative instruments as cash flow hedges in order to qualify for hedge accounting.
The Company formally documents its hedge relationships, including the identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the cash flow hedges. The Company also formally assesses whether a cash flow hedge is highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of the hedged item.

(Dollar amounts in thousands except per share and share amounts)
Derivatives are recorded at fair value in other current assets, other assets, accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities. For a cash flow hedge, the change in fair value of the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) in the condensed consolidated balance sheet, to the extent that the hedges are effective, and reclassified into earnings when the underlying hedged transaction is realized. The realized gains and losses are recorded on the same line as the hedged transaction in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by its counterparties on its derivative financial instruments. The Company mitigates this credit risk exposure by entering into agreements directly with major financial institutions with high credit standards that are expected to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts.
Cash Flow Hedges
Forward Foreign Exchange ContractsContracts. - The Company uses forward contracts to mitigate the potential volatility to earnings and cash flows arising from changes in currency exchange rates that impact the Company’s foreign currency transactions. The principal currencies hedged by the Company include various European currencies, the Canadian Dollar, and the Mexican Peso. As of June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the notional amount of these contracts was $59,626$99,096 and $136,103,$135,285, respectively, and consisted of hedges of cash flow transactions upextending out to December 2022.2023.

On October 11, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a resolution to merge certain of the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans, and terminate the resulting merged plan (“U.S. Pension Plan”) effective December 31, 2022. The termination of the U.S. Pension Plan is expected to take twelve to eighteen months to complete. As part of the termination process, the Company expects to settle benefit obligations under the U.S. Pension Plan through a combination of lump sum payments to eligible plan participants and the purchase of a group annuity contract, under which future benefit obligations and administration will be transferred to a third-party insurance company. Such settlements will be funded primarily from plan assets. Ultimate settlement of benefit obligations is dependent upon the participants’ elections. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the U.S. Pension Plan was underfunded under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles by $5,824 and $5,759, respectively.

14.11. Income Taxes
The Company determines its effective tax rate each quarter based upon its estimated annual effective tax rate. The Company records the tax impact of certain unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate.

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 varied from the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 primarily due to the the geographic mix of pre-tax losses, and the inability to record a benefit for pre-tax losses in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions due to valuation allowances, discrete tax impacts of the gain on sale transaction in Europe, and other tax reserve changes during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.permanent items.
The income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022 and 2021 varied from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the inability to record a tax benefit for pre-tax losses in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions, tax credits, the impact of income taxes on foreign earnings taxed at rates varying from the U.S. statutory rate, and other permanent items.
During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company received $51,396 in cash payments from the United States Internal Revenue Service for tax refunds related to net operating loss carrybacks.
The Company’s current and future provision for income taxes is impacted by changes in valuation allowances in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s future provision for income taxes will include no tax benefit with respect to losses incurred and, except for certain jurisdictions, no tax expense with respect to income generated in these countries until the respective valuation allowances are eliminated. Accordingly, income taxes are impacted by changes in valuation allowances and the mix of earnings among jurisdictions. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis. In completing this evaluation, the Company considers all available evidence in order to determine, based on the weight of the evidence, if a valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets is necessary. Such evidence includes historical results, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and expectations for future taxable income (exclusive of the reversal of temporary differences and carryforwards), as well as the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. If, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the Company’s deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded. If operating results improve or decline on a continual basis in a particular jurisdiction, the Company’s decision regarding the need for a valuation allowance could change, resulting in either the initial recognition or reversal of a valuation allowance in that jurisdiction, which could have a significant impact on income tax

The Company, or one of its subsidiaries, files income tax returns in the United States and other foreign jurisdictions. During the examination of our 2015-2018 U.S. federal income tax filings, the IRS asserted that income earned by a Netherlands subsidiary from its Mexican branch operations should be categorized as foreign based company sales income under Section 954(d) of the Internal Revenue Code and should be recognized currently as taxable income on our 2015-2018 U.S. federal income tax filings. As a result of this assertion, the IRS issued a Notice of Proposed Adjustment (“NOPA”). The Company believes the proposed adjustment is without merit and has begun the process of contesting the matter. Currently, the protest for the 2015-2018 tax years has been submitted to the IRS’s administrative appeals office. The Company believes, after consultation with tax and legal counsel, that it is more likely than not that it will ultimately be successful in defending its position. As such, the Company has not recorded any impact of the IRS’s proposed adjustment in its condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023. In the event the Company is not successful in defending its position, the potential income tax expense impact, including interest, related to tax years 2015 through March 31, 2023 is less than $15,000. The Company intends to vigorously contest the conclusions reached in the NOPA through the IRS’s administrative appeals process, and, if necessary, through litigation.
On August 16, 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Action of 2022, which, among other things, implements a 15% minimum tax on financial statement income of certain large corporations, a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases and several tax incentives to promote clean energy. The provisions were effective in the first quarter of 2023 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
12. Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc.
Basic net loss per share attributable to Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. was computed by dividing net loss attributable to Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share attributable to Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. was computed using the treasury stock method by dividing diluted net loss available to Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, including the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, using the average share price during the period.

Executive Overview
Our Business
We design, manufacture and sell sealing, fuel and brake delivery, and fluid transfer systems for use primarily in passenger vehicles and light trucks manufactured by global automotive original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”). We are primarily a “Tier 1” supplier, with approximately 83%82% of our sales in 20212022 made directly to major OEMs. We operate our automotive business along the following reportable segments: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and South America. All other business activities are reported in Corporate, eliminations and other.
Recent Trends and Conditions
General Economic Conditions and Outlook
The global automotive industry is susceptible to uncertain economic conditions that could adversely impact new vehicle demand and production. Business conditions may vary significantly from period to period or region to region. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic created an unusually high degree of economic disruption and uncertainty globally which adversely impacted automotive production. In 2021,2022, global automotive production was againcontinued to be negatively impacted by broad supply chain challenges, labor market disruptions and other lingering impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and broadpandemic. In 2023, while supply chain challenges stemming, in part, from a sharp rebound in overall industrial demand. In 2022,disruptions are improving, rising interest rates, energy market volatility, persistent inflation and continuing supply chain challenges are contributing to global economic uncertainty. In addition, recent pandemic related restrictions imposed in certain large population centers in China, the threat of additional lockdowns, and continuing military actions in Eastern Europe are contributing to global economic uncertainty and are having broad negative impacts on key sectors of the global economy.
In North America, U.S. consumer confidence has trended downward sinceslipped in the secondlatter portion of the first quarter of 2021.2023 and remains well below historical averages. Key drivers of the decline in consumer sentiment are significantpersistent inflation, continuing supply chain disruptions and rising interest rates. Geopolitical tensionsrates, turmoil in the banking sector and persistentincreasing concerns over new variantsthe likelihood of COVID-19 are also important factors. However, the U.S. economy is seeing some benefits from near all-time low unemployment ratesentering a recession later in the year. Despite the dip in consumer confidence, the continuing strong labor market and rising wages. In addition, current and future government spending authorized by recently passed infrastructure legislation and private spending related to pent-up consumer demand continueinfrastructure are expected to supportdrive modest economic growth.growth during the year. Economists at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) are expecting the economies of the United States, Canada and Mexico to grow by 2.31.6 percent, 3.41.5 percent and 2.41.8 percent, respectively, in 2022.2023.
In Europe, the war in Ukraine and related sanctions imposed on Russia are having a dramaticcontinue to impact the regional economy, but the impacts on energy pricesthe supply chain and energy security. Thiscosts are diminishing. Industrial output has remained surprisingly resilient, and the labor market remains strong. Inflation remains a concern, however, and the European Central Bank is translating into lower output and higher inflation for most Eurozone countries. Supply chain disruptions have also hurtcontinuing to raise policy interest rates to stem inflation. At the same time, certain industries includingcountries within the automobile sector, with the war and sanctions hindering the production of key input materials.

In this uncertain environment, economists at the IMF are currently expecting the economy in the Eurozone region to grow by approximately 2.60.8 percent for the year.in 2023.
In the Asia Pacific region, the combination of more transmissible variants and theChina has recently ended its strict zero-COVID strategy in Chinaand has ledlifted all related restrictive policy measures previously employed to repeatedprevent spread of the disease.

While considerable uncertainty remains in key Chinese manufacturing and trading hubseconomic sectors such as Shenzhen and Shanghai compounded supply disruptions elsewhere in the region and beyond during the second quarter of 2022. Moreover, real estate, investment in China, once athe nation’s leaders have pledged to provide additional monetary and fiscal support as necessary to ensure key driver of economic growth, has slowed significantly. As Chinese exports surged in June 2022 following the end of the most recent round of COVID-related lockdowns, the Chinese government reaffirmed a GDP growth target of “around of

In South America, the Brazilian economy continueswill likely remain challenged by continued inflation and constraining interest rate policy. Following his election in October 2022, President Lula Da Silva has sought to expand amidaddress deep-rooted social problems and inequities with further expansive fiscal supportpolicy and social spending. The increased government spending is expected to spur inflation above 5 percent for the lessening impactyear and will likely force the central bank to maintain benchmark interest rates at high levels to dampen the inflationary pressure. Further, tax increases may be necessary to pay for the spending programs that already exceed strict budget levels. To the positive, it is expected that the re-opening of the COVID-19 pandemic. Increasing exports of goods and services have provided strong support and the unemployment rate remains low. Tighter monetary policy, inflation and political uncertainty ahead of the October 2022 general elections are likely to temper investment and economic growth in the second half of the year.Chinese economy will drive incremental demand for Brazil’s agricultural exports. Economists at the IMF are now estimating the Brazilian economy will grow just 1.70.9 percent in 2022.2023. We remain cautious for the economic outlook in this market given the long history of political instability and economic volatility in the region.
Raw Materials
Our business is susceptible to inflationary pressures with respect to raw materials which may place operational and profitability burdens on the entire supply chain. Costs related to raw materials, such as steel, aluminum, and oil-derived commodities, continue to be volatile, which led to significant increases in these costs in 2021. Current globalGlobal events continuecontinued to add further price pressure and uncertainty to raw material costs for 2022.in 2022 which has stabilized in Q1 2023. In addition, we continue to see significant inflationary pressure on wages, energy, transportation and other general costs. As such, we will continue to work on an ongoing basis with our customers and suppliers to mitigate both inflationary pressures and our material-related cost exposures through a combination of expanded index-based agreements and other commercial enhancements.
Production Levels
Our business is directly affected by the automotive vehicle production rates in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and South America which have been adversely affected by a series of events in recent years. Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, we experienced production shutdowns related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, OEM production volumes were disrupted by the global shortage of semiconductors.semiconductors, effectively delaying the expected rebound in light vehicle production to pre-pandemic levels. In 2022, disruptions stemming from the Russia-Ukraine crisis and lockdowns in key Chinese manufacturing and trading hubs such as Shenzhen and Shanghai have further exacerbated supply chain disruptions and vehicle production levels. We continue to collaborate closely with our customers to minimize production inefficiencies related to market disruptions while supporting their needs.
Light vehicle production in certain regions for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022 and 2021 was as follows:

There may be country-specific regulations which may restrict or result in increased costs in the repatriation of these funds. See Note 9. “Debt”7. “Debt and Other Financing” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for additional information.
We continue to actively preserve cash and enhance liquidity, including decreasing our capital expenditures and improving working capital. Based on those actions and current projections of OEM customer production, we believe that our cash flows from operations, cash on hand, borrowings under our ABL Facility and receivables factoring will enable us to meet our ongoing working capital, capital expenditures and debt service requirements for the next twelve months, despite the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic and supply chain issues facing the industry.expenditures. We continuously monitor and forecast our liquidity situation, take the necessary actions to preserve our liquidity and evaluate other financial alternatives that may be available to us should the need arise. Our ability to fund our working capital needs, debt payments and other obligations, and to comply with the financial covenants, including borrowing base limitations, under our ABL Facility, depend on our future operating performance and cash flows and many factors outside of our control, including the costs of raw materials, the state of the overall automotive industry and financial and economic conditions, including the continued impact of COVID-19, and other factors. Based on those actions and current projections of light vehicle production and customer demand for our products, we believe that our cash flows from operations, cash on hand, borrowings under our ABL Facility and receivables factoring will enable us to meet our ongoing working capital requirements, capital expenditures, debt service and other funding requirements for the foreseeable future, despite the challenges facing the industry.

(the “Dutch Borrower”, and, together with the U.S. Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, the “Borrowers”) and certain subsidiaries of the U.S. Borrower, entered into a third amendment and restatement of the ABL Facility. In March 2020, the Borrowers entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (“the First Amendment”). As a result of the First Amendment, the ABL Facility maturity was extended to March 2025 and the aggregate revolving loan commitment was reduced to $180.0 million. In May 2020, the Borrowers entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), which Second Amendment modified certain covenants under the ABL Facility. In December 2022, the Borrowers entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Third Amendment”), which became effective on the Settlement Date. The Third Amendment provides for the ABL Facility to be amended to:
permit the U.S. Borrower to issue the New Notes in the Concurrent Notes Offering and Exchange Offer, including the granting of liens, subject to the restrictions set forth in the ABL Facility;
provide for certain of the U.S. Borrower’s wholly-owned subsidiaries organized in Costa Rica, France, Mexico, the Netherlands, Romania and certain other jurisdictions specified from time to time to become guarantors under the ABL Facility;
authorize the collateral agent under the ABL Facility to enter into an intercreditor agreement with the collateral trustees for the New Notes; and
remove the Dutch Borrower as a borrower under the ABL Facility.
The aggregate revolving loan availability includes a $100,000 letter of credit sub-facility and a $25,000 swing line sub-facility. The ABL Facility also provides for an uncommitted $100,000 incremental loan facility, for a potential total ABL Facility of $280,000 (if requested by the Borrowers and the lenders agree to fund such increase). No consent of any lender (other than those participating in the increase) is required to effect any such increase. The Company’s borrowing base as of March 31, 2023 was $172,483. Net the greater of 10% of the borrowing base or $15,000 that cannot be borrowed without triggering the fixed charge coverage ratio maintenance covenant and $6,203 of outstanding letters of credit, the Company effectively had $149,031 available for borrowing under its ABL Facility.
As of March 31, 2023, there were no borrowings under the ABL Facility.
Maturity. Any borrowings under our ABL Facility will mature, and the commitments of the lenders under our ABL Facility will terminate, on March 24, 2025.
Borrowing Base. As of the Settlement Date, the loan and letter of credit availability under the ABL Facility is subject to a borrowing base, which at any time is limited to the lesser of: (A) the maximum facility amount (subject to certain adjustments) and (B) (i) up to 85% of eligible accounts receivable; plus (ii) the lesser of 70% of eligible inventory or 85% of the appraised net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory; plus (iii) up to the lesser of $30,000 and 85% of eligible tooling accounts receivable; minus reserves established by the Agent. The accounts receivable portion of the borrowing base is subject to certain formulaic limitations (including concentration limits). The inventory portion of the borrowing base is limited to eligible inventory, as determined by the Agent. The borrowing base is also subject to certain reserves, which are established by the Agent (which may include changes to the advance rates indicated above). Loan availability under the ABL Facility is apportioned as follows: $160,000 to the U.S. Borrower and $20,000 to the Canadian Borrower.
Interest. Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Borrowers’ option:
33


Ourin the case of borrowings by the U.S. Borrower, the forward-looking secured overnight funding rate for the applicable interest period (“Term SOFR”) (including a credit spread adjustment of 0.11448% or 0.26161%, depending on the applicable interest period) or the base rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin; or
in the case of borrowings by the Canadian Borrower, bankers’ acceptance (“BA”) rate, Canadian prime rate or Canadian base rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin.

The applicable margin may vary between 2.00% and 2.50% with respect to the Term SOFR or Canadian BA rate-based borrowings and between 1.00% and 1.50% with respect to U.S. base rate, Canadian prime rate and Canadian base rate borrowings. The applicable margin is subject, in each case, to quarterly pricing adjustments (based on average facility availability).
Fees. The Borrowers are required to pay a fee in respect of committed but unutilized commitments. The ABL Facility also requires the payment of customary agency and administrative fees.
Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrowers are able to voluntarily reduce the unutilized portion of the commitment amount and repay outstanding loans, in each case, in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty (other than customary breakage and related reemployment costs with respect to repayments of SOFR-based borrowings).
Debt Issuance Costs. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $1,416 and $535, respectively, of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the ABL Facility recorded in other long-term assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
For additional information regarding the guarantees, covenants and events of default with respect to the ABL Facility, see Note 7. “Debt and Other Financing” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report.
Term Loan Facility
On November 2, 2016, Cooper-Standard Automotive Inc., as borrower, entered into Amendment No. 1 to its senior term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), which provided for loans in an aggregate principal amount of $340,000. In connection with the Refinancing Transactions, Cooper-Standard Automotive Inc. repaid the Term Loan Facility maturesin full on November 2, 2023.

LLC as its financial advisorhad $494 of unamortized debt issuance costs and $319 of unamortized original issue discount related to analyze, evaluatethe Term Loan Facility. Both the debt issuance costs and help arrangethe original issue discount were amortized into interest expense over the term of the Term Loan Facility.
For a refinancingfurther description of the Term Loan Facility, see Note 7. “Debt and possibly certain other debt instruments. To the extent the Company is not able to refinance its Term Loan Facility priorOther Financing” to the issuance of theunaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, our independent auditors may issue an audit opinion including an explanatory paragraph that indicates there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The inclusionincluded in Part I, Item 1 of such an explanatory paragraph in the report of our independent auditors would breach a covenant under our Term Loan Facility which, unless cured, would constitute an event of default thereunder. Such an event of default would cause a cross-default or cross-acceleration of other indebtedness. In such a case, the Company would not expect that it would have sufficient liquidity to repay all of its outstanding indebtedness at such time. While there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to refinance its Term Loan Facility on acceptable terms or at all prior to the issuance of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company believes its actions to improve financial performance, to maintain liquidity and current discussions with certain investors will enable the Company to refinance its Term Loan Facility.this Report.

Share Repurchase Program
In June 2018, our Board of Directors approved a common stock repurchase program (the “2018 Program”) authorizing us to repurchase, in the aggregate, up to $150.0 million of our outstanding common stock. Under the 2018 Program, repurchases may be made on the open market, through private transactions, accelerated share repurchases, round lot or block transactions on the New York Stock Exchange or otherwise, as determined by us and in accordance with prevailing market conditions and federal securities laws and regulations. We expect to fund any future repurchases from cash on hand and future cash flows from operations. The specific timing and amount of any future repurchase will vary based on market and business conditions, changes in tax laws (including the Inflation Reduction Act) and other factors. We are not obligated to acquire a
34


particular amount of securities, and the 2018 Program may be discontinued at any time at our discretion. As of June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, we had approximately $98.7 million of repurchase authorization remaining under the 2018 Program. We did not make any repurchases under the 2018 Program during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 or 20212022.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In evaluating our business, management considers EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be key indicators of our operating performance. Our management also uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:
because similar measures are utilized in the calculation of the financial covenants and ratios contained in our financing arrangements;
in developing our internal budgets and forecasts;
as a significant factor in evaluating our management for compensation purposes;
in evaluating potential acquisitions;
in comparing our current operating results with corresponding historical periods and with the operational performance of other companies in our industry; and
in presentations to the members of our board of directors to enable our board of directors to have the same measurement basis of operating performance as is used by management in their assessments of performance and in forecasting and budgeting for our company.
In addition, we believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in evaluating our performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, net of interest income, depreciation and amortization or EBITDA, as adjusted
34


for items that management does not consider to be reflective of our core operating performance. These adjustments include, but are not limited to, restructuring costs, impairment charges, non-cash fair value adjustments and acquisition-related costs.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not financial measurements recognized under U.S. GAAP, and when analyzing our operating performance, investors should use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a supplement to, and not as alternatives for, net income (loss), operating income, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and they should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results of operations as reported under U.S. GAAP. These limitations include:
 
they do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditure or contractual commitments;
they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
they do not reflect interest expense or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments under our ABL Facility, Term Loan Facility, New Notes, 2026 Senior Notes and 2024 Senior Secured Notes;
they do not reflect certain tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; and
other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate these measures differently and, as the number of differences in the way companies calculate these measures increases, the degree of their usefulness as a comparative measure correspondingly decreases.
In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, it should be noted that in the future, we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the below presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by special items.
