Ferro Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Ferro Corporation (“Ferro,” “we,” “us” or “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. These statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
2018.
We produce our products primarily in the Europe-MiddleEurope, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) region, the United States (“U.S.”), the Asia Pacific region, and Latin America.
Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected in subsequent quarters or for the full year ending December 31, 2018.2019.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
On AprilJanuary 1, 2018,2019, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-12,2016-02, Derivatives and HedgingLeases: (Topic 815): 842), using the new transition method under ASU 2018-11, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.Improvements. ASU 2017-12 provides guidance2016-02 requires companies to better alignrecognize a lease liability and asset on the balance sheet for operating leases with a term greater than one year. ASU 2018-11 provided an entity’s risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changesadditional transition method to bothadopt the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships andnew leasing standard. Under this new transition method, an entity initially applies the presentation of hedge results. The adoption of this ASU did not have an impactnew leasing standard using a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of Retained earnings. Weretained earnings but will apply thecontinue to report comparative periods under existing guidance of this ASU to applicable transactions after the adoption date.in accordance with ASC 840, Leases.
On AprilWe elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allowed us to carryforward our historical lease classification, our assessment on whether a contract is or contains a lease, and our initial direct costs for any leases that exist prior to adoption of the new standard. We also elected to combine lease and non-lease components for all asset classes. We elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. Consequently, for those leases that qualify, we will not recognize right of use assets or lease liabilities on the balance sheet. The impact of adoption resulted in $28.6 million recognized as total right-of-use assets and total lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2018, we adopted FASB ASU 2018-03, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. ASU 2018-03 provides targeted improvements to address certain aspects of recognition, measurement presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The2019. Other than this impact, the adoption of ASU 2018-032016-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2018, we adopted FASB ASU 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation: (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09 provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718.This new guidance would only impact our consolidated financial statements if, in the future, we modified the terms of any of our share-based awards. We will apply the guidance of this ASU to applicable transactions after the adoption date. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2018, we adopted FASB ASU 2017-07, Compensation – Retirement Benefits: (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Costs. ASU 2017-07 requires that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. The other components of net benefit costs are to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. This ASU also allows only the service cost component of net benefit costs to be eligible for capitalization. We adopted this new standard using the retrospective approach for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of the net periodic pension (credit) cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the income statement. This resulted in the reclassification of income of $0.5 million and $1.0 million from Selling, general and administrative expenses to Other income, expense, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The Company used a practical expedient where the amount disclosed in our Retirement Benefits footnote for the prior
8
year comparative period was the basis for the estimation for applying the retrospective presentation requirements. Other than this reclassification, the adoption of ASU 2017-07 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensedremaining consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2018,2019, we adopted FASB ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations: (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. ASU 2017-01 is intended to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities in evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or dispositions) of assets or businesses. We will apply the guidance of this ASU to applicable transactions after the adoption date. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2018, we adopted FASB ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes: (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. ASU 2016-16 is intended to improve the accounting for the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory and requires the recognition of the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset, other than inventory, when the transfer occurs. We adopted this new standard using the modified retrospective method. The impact of adopting this guidance on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements resulted in an increase to Retained earnings of $4.1 million and Deferred income taxes of $4.7 million and a decrease to Other receivables of $0.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2018.
On January 1, 2018, we adopted FASB ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flow: (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 is intended to address eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. Adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2018, we adopted FASB ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”). This ASU replaces nearly all existing U.S. GAAP guidance on revenue recognition. The standard prescribes a five-step model for recognizing revenue, the application of which require significant judgment. We have completed our assessment and review of specific contracts and have adopted this new standard using the modified retrospective method with no impact to the opening Retained earnings balance. We expect the impact of the adoption of this new standard will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements on an ongoing basis.
NewAccounting Standards
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. ASU 2018-02 allows a reclassification from Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income to Retained Earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and requires certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The Company has elected not to reclassify the stranded tax effects due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act within Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. As such, the adoption of this standard did not impact our consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2019, we adopted FASB ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The Company updated the disclosures for the fair value measurements in accordance with the standard updates.
NewAccounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. ASU 2018-14 modifies
8
disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period.2020. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 is intended to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the current goodwill impairment test. This pronouncement is effective for the annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests conducted in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases: (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires companies to recognize a lease liability and asset on the balance sheet for operating leases with a term greater than one year. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.
9
No other new accounting pronouncements issued had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
3. Revenue
Revenue Recognition
Under ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods. In order to achieve that core principle, the Company applies the following five-step approach: 1) identify the contract with a customer, 2) identify the performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and 5) recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.
The Company considers confirmed customer purchase orders, which in some cases are governed by master sales agreements, to be the contracts, from an accounting perspective, with customers. Under our standard contracts, the only performance obligation is the delivery of manufactured goods and the performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time, when the Company transfers control of the manufactured goods. The Company may receive orders for products to be delivered over multiple dates that may extend across several reporting periods. The Company invoices for each order and recognizes revenue for each distinct product upon shipment, once transfer of control has occurred. Payment terms are standard for the industry and jurisdiction in which we operate. In determining the transaction price, the Company evaluates whether the price is subject to refund or adjustment, to determine the net consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. Discounts or rebates are specifically stated in customer contracts or invoices, and are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the period the related revenue is recognized. The product price as specified on the customer confirmed orders is considered the standalone selling price. The Company allocates the transaction price to each distinct product based on its relative standalone selling price. Revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer (i.e., when the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied), which generally occurs at shipment. We review all material contracts to determine transfer of control based upon the business practices and legal requirements of each country.
The amount of shipping and handling fees invoiced to our customers at the time our product is shipped is included in net sales as we are the principle in those activities. Sales, valued-added and other taxes collected from our customers and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from net sales.
There were no changes in amounts previously reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements due to adopting ASC 606.

Amended Credit Facility
On April 25, 2018, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amended Credit Facility”) to its existing credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) which Amended Credit Facility (a) provided a new revolving facility (the “2018 Revolving Facility”), which replaced the Company’s existing revolving facility, (b) repriced the (“Tranche B-1 Loans”), (c) provided new tranches of term loans (“Tranche B-2 Loans” and “Tranche B-3 Loans”) denominated in U.S. dollars borrowed by the Company’s existing credit facility and will be used for ongoing working capital requirements and general corporate purposes. The (“Tranche B-2 Loans”)Loans are borrowed by the Company and the (“Tranche B-3 Loans”)Loans are borrowed on a joint and several basis by Ferro GmbH and Ferro Europe Holdings LLC.
The Amended Credit Facility consists of a $500 million secured revolving line of credit with a maturity of February 2023, a $355 million secured term loan facility with a maturity of February 2024, a $235 million secured term loan facility with a maturity of February 2024 and a $230 million secured term loan facility with a maturity of February 2024. The term loans are payable in equal quarterly installments in an amount equal to 0.25% of the original principal amount of the term loans, with the remaining balance due on the maturity date thereof. In addition, the Company is required, on an annual basis, to make a prepayment in an amount equal to a portion of the Company’s excess cash flow, as calculated pursuant to the Amended Credit Facility, which prepayment will be applied first to the term loans until they are paid in full, and then to the revolving loans.
Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company can request additional commitments under the revolving line of credit or term loans in the aggregate principal amount of up to $250 million to the extent that existing or new lenders agree to provide such additional commitments and/or term loans. The Company can also raise certain additional debt or credit facilities subject to satisfaction of certain covenant levels.
Certain of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Amended Credit Facility and such obligations are secured by (a) substantially all of the personal property of the Company and the U.S. subsidiary guarantors and (b) a pledge of 100% of the stock of certain of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries and 65% of the stock of certain of the Company’s direct foreign subsidiaries. The Tranche B-3 Loans are guaranteed by the Company, the U.S. subsidiary guarantors and a cross-guaranty by the borrowers of the Tranche B-3 Loans, and are secured by the collateral securing the revolving loans and the other term loans, in addition to a pledge of the equity interests of Ferro GmbH.
Interest Rate – Term Loans: The interest rates applicable to the term loans will be, at the Company’s option, equal to either a base rate or a LIBOR rate plus, in both cases, an applicable margin.
· | The base rate for term loans will be the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the syndication agent’s prime rate, (iii) the daily LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (iv) 0.00%. The applicable margin for base rate loans is 1.25%. |

· | For LIBOR rate term loans, the Company may choose to set the duration on individual borrowings for periods of one, two, three or six months, with the interest rate based on the applicable LIBOR rate for the corresponding duration. |
At June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, the Company had borrowed $354.1$351.5 million under the Tranche B-1 Loans at an interest rate of 4.58%4.85%, $234.4$232.7 million under the Tranche B-2 Loans at an interest rate of 4.58%4.85%, and $229.4$227.7 million under the Tranche B-3 Loans at an interest rate of 4.58%4.85%. At June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, there were no additional borrowings available under the Tranche B-1 Loans, Tranche B-2 Loans, and Tranche B-3 Loans. In connection with these borrowings, we entered into swap agreements in the second quarter of 2018.

Interest Rate – Revolving Credit Line: The interest rates applicable to loans under the revolving credit line2018 Revolving Credit Facility will be, at the Company’s option, equal to either a base rate or a LIBOR rate plus, in both cases, an applicable variable margin. The variable margin will be based on the ratio of (a) the Company’s total consolidated net debt outstanding (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) at such time to (b) the Company’s consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) computed for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended.
13
· | The base rate for revolving loans will be the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the syndication agent’s prime rate, (iii) the daily LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (iv) 0.00%. The applicable margin for base rate loans will vary between 0.50% to 1.50%. |

Specific to the 2018 Revolving Facility, the Company is subject to a financial covenant regarding the Company’s maximum leverage ratio. If an event of default occurs, all amounts outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility agreement may be accelerated and become immediately due and payable. At June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, we were in compliance with the covenants of the Amended Credit Facility.
Credit Facility
On February 14, 2017, the Company entered into a credit facility (the “Credit Facility”)The Credit Facility with a group of lenders to refinance its then outstanding credit facility debt and to provide liquidity for ongoing working capital requirements and general corporate purposes.

In conjunction withInternational Receivable Sales Programs
We have several international programs to sell without recourse trade accounts receivable to financial institutions. These transactions are treated as a sale and are accounted for as a reduction in accounts receivable because the refinancingagreements transfer effective control over and risk related to the receivables to the buyers. The Company continues to service the receivables sold in exchange for a fee. The servicing fee for the three months ended March 31, 2019, was immaterial. The program, whose maximum capacity is €100 million, is scheduled to expire in December 2023. Generally, at the transfer date, the Company received cash equal to approximately 65% of the Credit Facility, we recorded a chargevalue of $3.2 millionthe sold receivable. Cash proceeds at the transfer date from these arrangements are reflected in connection with the write-off of unamortized issuance costs, which is recorded within Loss on extinguishment of debtoperating activities in our condensed consolidated statement of operations forcash flows. The proceeds from the threedeferred purchase price are reflected in investing activities.
The outstanding principal amount of receivables sold under this program was $63.9 million at March 31, 2019 and six months ended June 30,$71.3 million at December 31, 2018. The carrying amount of deferred purchase price was $23.1 million at March 31, 2019 and $23.0 million at December 31, 2018, and is recorded in Other receivables.

(1) The carrying values of the term loan facility are net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $5.3$4.6 million and $7.5$4.8 million for the period ended June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2017,2018, respectively.
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents are based on the fair values of identical assets. The fair values of loans payable are based on the present value of expected future cash flows and approximate their carrying amounts due to the short periods to maturity. The fair value of the term loan facility is based on market price information and is measured using the last available bid price of the instrument on a secondary market. The revolving credit facility and other long-term notes payable are based on the present value of expected future cash flows and interest rates that would be currently available to the Company for issuance of similar types of debt instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities adjusted for the Company's performance risk. The fair values of our interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. The fair values of the foreign currency forward contracts are based on market prices for comparable contracts.

Derivative Instruments
The Company may use derivative instruments to partially offset its business exposure to foreign currency and interest rate risk on expected future cash flows, on net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries and on certain existing assets and liabilities. However,
18
the Company may choose not to hedge in countries where it is not economically feasible to enter into hedging arrangements or where hedging inefficiencies exist, such as timing of transactions.
Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments
Cash Flow Hedges. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.
The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to limit exposure to market fluctuations on floating-rate debt. During the second quarter of 2017, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements that converted $150 million and €90 million of our term loans from variable interest rates to fixed interest rates. These swaps qualified for, and were designated as, cash flow hedges. ThisThese interest rate swap agreement wasagreements were terminated in the second quarter of 2018 in connection with the refinancing of the Credit Facility.
During the second quarter of 2018, the Company entered into variable to fixed interest rate swaps for an initial aggregate notional amount of $319.2 million with a maturity date of February 28,14, 2024. The notional amount is $316.8 million at March 31, 2019. These swaps are hedging risk associated with the Tranche B-1 Loans. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. As of June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, the Company expects it will reclassify net losses of approximately $1.2 $1.4 million, currently recorded in AOCL, into interest expense in earnings within the next twelve months. However, the actual amount reclassified could vary due to future changes in the fair value of these derivatives.
The Company has converted a US dollar denominated, variable rate debt obligation into a euroEuro fixed rate obligation using a receive-float, pay fixed cross currency swaps in the second quarter of 2018. These swaps are hedging currency and interest rate risk associated with the Tranche B-3 Loans. These cross currency swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. The initial aggregate notional amount is $230$227.7 million at March 31, 2019, with a maturity date of February 28,14, 2024. As of June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, the Company expects it will reclassify net gains of approximately $5.5$5.6 million, currently recorded in AOCL, into interest expense in earnings within the next twelve months. However, the actual amount reclassified could vary due to future changes in the fair value of these derivatives.
The amount of (loss) gain recognized in AOCL and the amount of gain (loss) gain reclassified into earnings for the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2019 and 2018, and 2017, follow:

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
Foreign currency forward contracts. We manage foreign currency risks principally by entering into forward contracts to mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations on transactions. These forward contracts are not formally designated as hedges. Gains and losses on these foreign currency forward contracts are netted with gains and losses from currency fluctuations on transactions arising from international trade and reported as Foreign currency losses, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We recognized net gains of $1.0 million and $1.4$1.5 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively,March 31, 2019, and net lossesgains of $3.0 million and $2.7$0.4 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively,March 31, 2018, arising from the change in fair value of our financial
20
instruments, which partially offset the related net gains and losses on international trade transactions. The notional amount of foreign currency forward contracts was $345.3410.1 million at June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, and $238.5$387.2 million at December 31, 2017.2018.

10. Income Taxes
During the first half of 2018, incomeIncome tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019, was $17.9$4.3 million, or 25.1%23.7% of pre-tax income. In the first half of 2017, we recordedIncome tax expense of $15.8for the three months ended March 31, 2018, was $7.5 million, or 26.8%24.2% of pre-tax income. The tax expense in the first halfquarter of 2019 and 2018, as a percentage of pre-tax income, wasis higher than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily as a result of foreign statutory rate differences. The tax expense for the first half of 2017, as a percentage of pre-tax income, was lower than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 35% primarily as a result of foreign statutory rate differences.
We have recognized the provisional tax impacts related to the 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) under the guidance of the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”). The ultimate impact may differ from these provisional amounts due to additional analysis, changes in interpretations and assumptions, additional regulatory guidance that may be issued, and actions we may take as a result of the Tax Act. The Company’s preliminary
21
determinations related to the estimable impacts of the Tax Act that are effective for the year-ended December 31, 2017 have not changed in the current quarter.
The Company continues to review the anticipated impacts of the global intangible low taxed income (“GILTI”) and the foreign-derived intangible income (“FDII”) on the Company for 2018. For the current quarter, the Company has made reasonable estimates of GILTI and FDII, as well as the impact of changes to valuation allowances related to certain positions. The combined provisional net impact of these items are not anticipated to be material to the tax rate in 2018. The Company has not recorded any potential deferred tax effects related to GILTI in the financial statements and has not made a policy decision regarding whether to record deferred taxes on GILTI or use the period cost method.
11. Contingent Liabilities
We have recorded environmental liabilities of $5.7$6.6 million at June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, and $6.7$8.5 million at December 31, 2017,2018, for costs associated with the remediation of certain of our current or former properties that have been contaminated. The liability at June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2017,2018, was primarily comprised of liabilities related to a non-operating facility in Brazil, and for retained environmental obligations related to a site in the United States that was part of the sale of our North American and Asian metal powders product lines in 2013. TheThese costs include, but are not limited to, legal and consulting fees, site studies, the design and implementation of remediation plans, post-remediation monitoring, and related activities. The ultimate liability could be affected by numerous uncertainties, including the extent of contamination found, the required period of monitoring, and the ultimate cost of required remediation.
remediation and other circumstances.
In November 2017, Suffolk County Water Authority filed a complaint, Suffolk County Water Authority v. The Dow Chemical Company et al., against the Company and a number of other companies in the U.S. Federal Court for the Eastern District of New York with regard to the product 1,4 dioxane. The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that the Suffolk County water supply is contaminated with 1,4 dioxane and that the defendants are liable for unspecified costs of cleanup and remediation of the water supply, among other damages. The Company has not manufactured 1,4 dioxane since 2008, denies the allegations related to liability for the plaintiff’s claims, and is vigorously defending this proceeding. In MarchSince December 2018, additional complaints have been filed in the defendants, includingsame court by 15 other New York water suppliers against the Company filed a motion to dismissand others making substantially similar allegations regarding the complaint, which was heard by the court in June 2018.contamination of their respective water supplies with 1,4 dioxane. The Company is likewise vigorously defending these additional actions. The Company currently does not expect the outcome of this proceedingthese proceedings to have a material adverse impact on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows, net of any insurance coverage. However, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of this proceedingthese proceedings due to the unpredictable nature of litigation.
In addition to the proceedingproceedings described above, the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries are subject from time to time to various claims, lawsuits, investigations, and proceedings related to products, services, contracts, environmental, health and safety, employment, intellectual property, and other matters, including with respect to divested businesses. The outcome of such matters is unpredictable, our assessment of them may change, and resolution of them could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
18
consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. We do not currently expect the resolution of such matters to materially affect the consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

The Plan’s purpose is to promote the Company’s long-term financial interests and growth by attracting, retaining and motivating high qualityhigh-quality key employees and directors, motivating such employees and directors to achieve the Company’s short- and long-range performance goals and objectives, and thereby align their interests with those of the Company’s shareholders. The Plan reserves 4,500,000 shares of common stock to be issued for grants of several different types of long-term incentives including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted awards, performance awards, other common stock-based awards, and dividend equivalent rights.
The Plan replaced the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Previous Plan”), was replaced by the Plan, and no future grants may be made under the Previous Plan. However, any outstanding awards or grants made under the Previous Plan will continue until the end of their specified terms.
In the first halfquarter of 2018,2019, our Board of Directors granted 0.20.3 million stock options, 0.10.2 million performance share units, and 0.10.2 million restricted stock units.units under the Plan.
We estimate the fair value of each stock option on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following table details the weighted-average grant-date fair values and the assumptions used for estimating the fair values of stock option grants made during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018:March 31, 2019:

The weighted average grant date fair value of our performance share units granted in the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, was $22.92.$17.61. We measure the fair value of performance share units based on the closing market price of our common stock on the date of the grant. These shares are evaluated each reporting period for respective attainment rates against the performance criteria.
19
The weighted-average grant date fair value per unit for grants made duringof our restricted share units granted in the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, was $22.27.$17.61. We measure the fair value of restricted share units based on the closing market price of our common stock on the date of the grant. The restricted share units vest over three years.
We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1.4 million and $3.8$2.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, and $2.7 million and $5.4$2.4 million for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2017.March 31, 2018. At June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, unearned compensation cost related to the unvested portion of all stock-based compensation awards was approximately $9.7$13.8 million and is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of the respective grants, through the first quarter of 2021.2022.
14. Restructuring and Optimization Programs
Total restructuring and impairment charges were $3.8$2.1 million and $7.9$4.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively, and $3.2 million and $6.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Included in the charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, was an impairment charge of $1.5 million related to an equity method investment. The remainder of the charges primarily relate to costs associated with integration of our recent acquisitions and optimization programs, and are further summarized below.

We expect to make cash payments to settle the remaining liability for employee severance benefits and other costs over the next twelve months, except where legal or contractual obligations would require it to extend beyond that period.
15. Leases
The Company determines if a contract is a lease at inception. The Company has leases for equipment, office space, plant sites and distribution centers. Certain of these leases include options to extend the lease and some include options to terminate the lease early. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and the related lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The right of use asset represents the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and the lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right of use assets and lease liabilities are recognized as of the commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. The lease term may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the applicable option.
The Company’s lease payments consist of both fixed and variable lease payments. Residual value guarantees are not common within the Company’s lease agreements nor are restrictions or covenants imposed by leases. The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company determined the discount rate to be used in measuring lease liabilities at a portfolio level using a collateralized rate. Specifically, we segregated our lease portfolio into different populations based on (1) lease currency, (2) lease term, and (3) creditworthiness of the lessee and security structure. There are no leases that have not yet commenced but that create significant rights and obligations for the Company.

19. Subsequent Event
We have signed definitive acquisition agreements (subject to customary closing conditions) in July 2018 with purchase prices in the aggregate amount of approximately $70 million.
Due to the timing of the acquisitions, the Company’s initial purchase price accounting was incomplete at the time these financial statements were issued. As such, the Company cannot disclose the allocation of the acquisition prices to acquired assets and liabilities and the related disclosures at this time.

Outlook
In the second half of 2018,Throughout 2019, we expect towill continue to execute the dynamic innovation and optimization phase of our corporatethe Company’s value creation strategy, which includes organic and inorganic growth and optimization efforts throughout the organization.initiatives. We expect organic growth from sales of new products and repositioning ofpositioning our portfolio to addresscontinue transitioning to the higher end of our target markets. Inorganically,We also intend to advance the business through acquisitions, and investments in technology, facilities and equipment. We will continue to implement optimization initiatives throughout the Company to further improve efficiency, productivity and profitability. We will be judicious through the remainder of 2019 with our strategic investments, which may include acquisitions, share repurchases and debt retirement, and remain mindful of our overall leverage.
We believe that 2019 gross margins will compare favorably to the prior year due in part to stabilizing raw materials costs after a period of price inflation.
In the first half of 2019, we expect that uncertainty throughout the global macro-economic landscape could result in slower growth across several industries and geographic regions, particularly Europe and Asia. We expect demand will continue for our technology-driven functional coatings and color solutions in the niche markets on which we focus, and that we will continue to invest at levels of approximately $100 milliondevelop innovative new products relevant to $150 million per year in strategic acquisitions.the megatrends our customers are addressing with their products. We are actively implementing optimization programs to improve efficiency and upgrade operationsinitiatives throughout our business.global footprint to increase productivity and efficiency.
We expect continued raw material headwinds through the near term. Over the long term, we are confident in our ability to mitigate raw material inflation due to our pricing initiatives, technological advances in reformulating compounds, and optimization initiatives. Foreign currency rates may continue to be volatile through the second half of 20182019, and changes in interest rates could adversely impact reported results.
We remain focused on the integration of recent acquisitions and continue to work toward achieving the identified synergies. We are concurrently focusing on opportunities to optimize our cost structure and on making our business processes and systems more efficient. We continue to expect cash flow from operating activities to continue to be positiveavailable for 2018, providing additional liquidity.
debt pay down and other strategic investments.
Factors that could adversely affect our future performance include those described under the heading “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of ourthis Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.2018.

Income Tax Expense
During the secondfirst quarter of 2018,2019, income tax expense was $10.4$4.3 million, or 25.8%23.7% of pre-tax income. In the secondfirst quarter of 2017,2018, we recorded tax expense of $8.7$7.5 million, or 29.1%24.2% of pre-tax income. The tax expense in the secondfirst quarter of 2019 and 2018, as a percentage of pre-tax income, is higher than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily as a result of foreign statutory rate differences. The tax expense for the second quarter of 2017, as a percentage of pre-tax income, was lower than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 35% primarily as a result of foreign statutory rate differences.
We have recognized the provisional tax impacts related to the 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) under the guidance of the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”). The ultimate impact may differ from these provisional amounts due to additional analysis, changes in interpretations and assumptions, additional regulatory guidance that may be issued, and actions we may take as a result of the Tax Act. The Company’s preliminary determinations related to the estimable impacts of the Tax Act that are effective for the year-ended December 31, 2017 have not changed in the current quarter.
The Company continues to review the anticipated impacts of the global intangible low taxed income (“GILTI”) and the foreign-derived intangible income (“FDII”) on the Company for 2018. For the current quarter the Company has made reasonable estimates of GILTI and FDII, as well as the impact of changes to valuation allowances related to certain positions. The combined provisional net impact of these items are not anticipated to be material to the tax rate in 2018. The Company has not recorded any potential deferred tax effects related to GILTI in the financial statements and has not made a policy decision regarding whether to record deferred taxes on GILTI or use the period cost method.

Interest expense increased in the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared with the prior-year same period. The increase in interest expense was due to an increase in the average long-term debt balance during the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared with the prior-year same period. Also, interest expense increased due to the increase in LIBOR, offset by the decrease in the applicable margin rate from borrowings from the Amended Credit Facility.
Income Tax Expense
During the first half of 2018, income tax expense was $17.9 million, or 25.1% of pre-tax income. In the first half of 2017, we recorded tax expense of $15.8 million, or 26.8% of pre-tax income. The tax expense in the first half of 2018, as a percentage of pre-tax income, is higher than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily as a result of foreign statutory rate differences. The tax expense for the first half of 2017, as a percentage of pre-tax income, was lower than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 35% primarily as a result of foreign statutory rate differences.
We have recognized the provisional tax impacts related to the 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) under the guidance of the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”). The ultimate impact may differ from these provisional amounts due to additional analysis, changes in interpretations and assumptions, additional regulatory guidance that may be issued, and actions we may take as a result of the Tax Act. The Company’s preliminary determinations related to the estimable impacts of the Tax Act that are effective for the year-ended December 31, 2017 have not changed in the current quarter.
The Company continues to review the anticipated impacts of the global intangible low taxed income (“GILTI”) and the foreign-derived intangible income (“FDII”) on the Company for 2018. For the current quarter the Company has made reasonable estimates of GILTI and FDII, as well as the impact of changes to valuation allowances related to certain positions. The combined provisional net impact of these items are not anticipated to be material to the tax rate in 2018. The Company has not recorded any potential deferred tax effects related to GILTI in the financial statements and has not made a policy decision regarding whether to record deferred taxes on GILTI or use the period cost method.

The net sales increase of $99.8 million was primarily driven by increases in sales from EMEA and Asia Pacific. The increase in sales from EMEA was primarily attributable to sales from acquisitions which contributed $67.5 million and higher sales of all product lines. The increase in sales from Asia Pacific was driven by higher sales of frits and glazes, digital inks and porcelain enamel of $5.2 million, $2.1 million and $1.6 million, respectively, and sales from Endeka, which contributed $1.6 million. The increase in sales from the United States was fully attributable to higher sales of porcelain enamel. The decrease in sales from Latin America was driven by lower sales of porcelain enamel and frits and glazes, partially offset by higher sales of digital inks.

The net sales increase of $36.4 million was driven by higher sales from EMEA, Asia Pacific and Latin America, partially offset by a decrease in sales from the United States. The increase in sales from EMEA was primarily attributable to $11.5 million in sales from acquisitions and higher sales from all product groups. The increase from Asia Pacific was primarily due to an increase in sales of automobile products. Sales from Latin America remained relatively flat. The decrease in sales from the United States was primarily attributable to lower sales of automobile products and industrial products, partially mitigated by an increase in sales from Dip-Tech of $2.2 million.

Gross profit increased from the prior-year same period, primarily due to higher product pricing of $6.2 million, favorable sales volumes and mix of $7.2 million and favorable foreign currency impacts of $2.3 million, partially offset by higher raw material costs of $7.7 million and higher manufacturing costs of $0.9 million.

Cash flows from operating activities. Cash flows provided by operating activities decreased $52.4$33.2 million in the first sixthree months of 20182019 compared with the prior-year same period. The decrease in cash from operating activities was primarily due to a decrease in net income of $9.7 million and higher cash outflows for net working capital of $54.9 million and other current assets and liabilities of $13.7$31.4 million, partially offset by an increase in net incomeother current assets and liabilities and other adjustments of $10.1$9.3 million.
Cash flows fromused in investing activities. Cash flows used in investing activities increased $17.0decreased $19.6 million in the first sixthree months of 20182019 compared with the prior-year same period. The increase in cash from investing activities was primarily due to higher cash outflows for capital expenditurescollections of $26.7financing receivables from the international receivable sales program (Note 8) of $20.2 million offset byin the first quarter of 2019 and lower cash outflows for business acquisitions, net of cash acquired of $9.8 million.$2.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the prior-year same period.
Cash flows from financing activities. Cash flows provided by financing activities increased $20.6decreased $21.9 million in the first sixthree months of 20182019 compared with the prior-year same period. As further discussed in Note 8, during the three months ended June 30, 2018, we paid off our Credit Facility and entered into our Amended Credit Facility, consisting of a $500 million secured revolving line of credit and $820 million secured term loan facilities. Further, comparedThe decrease was primarily due to the prior-year same period, payment of debt issuance costs decreased $9.5 million, offset by the purchase of treasury stock of $25.0 million in the sixthree months ended of $6.0 million.March 31, 2019.

Capital Resources and Liquidity
Amended Credit Facility
On April 25, 2018 the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amended Credit Facility”) to its existing credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) which Amended Credit Facility (a) provided a new revolving facility (the “2018 Revolving Facility”), which replaced the Company’s existing revolving facility, (b) repriced the (“Tranche B-1 Loans”), (c) provided new tranches of term loans (“Tranche B-2 Loans” and “Tranche B-3 Loans”) denominated in U.S. dollars borrowed by the Company’s existing credit facility and will be used for ongoing working capital requirements and general corporate purposes. The (“Tranche B-2 Loans”)Loans are borrowed by the Company and the (“Tranche B-3 Loans”)Loans are borrowed on a joint and several basis by Ferro GmbH and Ferro Europe Holdings LLC.
The Amended Credit Facility consists of a $500 million secured revolving line of credit with a maturity of February 2023, a $355 million secured term loan facility with a maturity of February 2024, a $235 million secured term loan facility with a maturity of February 2024 and a $230 million secured term loan facility with a maturity of February 2024. The term loans are payable in equal quarterly installments in an amount equal to 0.25% of the original principal amount of the term loans, with the remaining balance due on the maturity date thereof. In addition, the Company is required, on an annual basis, to make a prepayment in an amount equal to a portion of the Company’s excess cash flow, as calculated pursuant to the Amended Credit Facility, which prepayment will be applied first to the term loans until they are paid in full, and then to the revolving loans.
Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company can request additional commitments under the revolving line of credit or term loans in the aggregate principal amount of up to $250 million to the extent that existing or new lenders agree to provide such additional commitments and/or term loans. The Company can also raise certain additional debt or credit facilities subject to satisfaction of certain covenant levels.
Certain of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Amended Credit Facility and such obligations are secured by (a) substantially all of the personal property of the Company and the U.S. subsidiary guarantors and (b) a pledge of 100% of the stock of certain of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries and 65% of the stock of certain of the Company’s direct foreign subsidiaries. The Tranche B-3 Loans are guaranteed by the Company, the U.S. subsidiary guarantors and a cross-guaranty by the borrowers of the Tranche B-3 Loans, and are secured by the collateral securing the revolving loans and the other term loans, in addition to a pledge of the equity interests of Ferro GmbH.
Interest Rate – Term Loans: The interest rates applicable to the term loans will be, at the Company’s option, equal to either a base rate or a LIBOR rate plus, in both cases, an applicable margin.
· | The base rate for term loans will be the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the syndication agent’s prime rate, (iii) the daily LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (iv) 0.00%. The applicable margin for base rate loans is 1.25%. |
· | The LIBOR rate for term loans shall not be less than 0.0% and the applicable margin for LIBOR rate term loans is 2.25%. |
41
· | For LIBOR rate term loans, the Company may choose to set the duration on individual borrowings for periods of one, two, three or six months, with the interest rate based on the applicable LIBOR rate for the corresponding duration. |
At June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, the Company had borrowed $354.1$351.5 million under the Tranche B-1 Loans at an interest rate of 4.58%4.85%, $234.4$232.7 million under the Tranche B-2 Loans at an interest rate of 4.58%4.85%, and $229.4$227.7 million under the Tranche B-3 Loans at an interest rate of 4.58%4.85%. At June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, there were no additional borrowings available under the Tranche B-1 Loans, Tranche B-2 Loans and Tranche B-3 Loans. In connection with these borrowings, we entered into swap agreements in the second quarter of 2018. At March 31, 2019, the effective interest rate for the Tranche B-1 Loans, Tranche B-2 Loans, and Tranche B-3 Loans, after adjusting for the interest rate swap, was 5.17%, 3.33%, and 2.48%, respectively.
Interest Rate – Revolving Credit Line: The interest rates applicable to loans under the revolving credit line2018 Revolving Credit Facility will be, at the Company’s option, equal to either a base rate or a LIBOR rate plus, in both cases, an applicable variable margin. The variable margin will be based on the ratio of (a) the Company’s total consolidated net debt outstanding (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) at such time to (b) the Company’s consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) computed for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended.
33
· | The base rate for revolving loans will be the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the syndication agent’s prime rate, (iii) the daily LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (iv) 0.00%. The applicable margin for base rate loans will vary between 0.50% to 1.50%. |
· | The LIBOR rate for revolving loans shall not be less than 0% and the applicable margin for LIBOR rate revolving loans will vary between 1.50% and 2.50%. |
· | For LIBOR rate revolving loans, the Company may choose to set the duration on individual borrowings for periods of one, two, three or six months, with the interest rate based on the applicable LIBOR rate for the corresponding duration. |
At June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, there were $0.6$51.3 million borrowings under the revolving credit line2018 Revolving Credit Facility at an interest rate of 4.09%4.49%. After reductions for outstanding letters of credit secured by these facilities, we had $494.8$444.0 million of additional borrowings available under the revolving credit facilities at June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019.
The Amended Credit Facility contains customary restrictive covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on use of loan proceeds, limitations on the Company’s ability to pay dividends and repurchase stock, limitations on acquisitions and dispositions, and limitations on certain types of investments. The Amended Credit Facility also contains standard provisions relating to conditions of borrowing and customary events of default, including the non-payment of obligations by the Company and the bankruptcy of the Company.
Specific to the 2018 Revolving Facility, the Company is subject to a financial covenant regarding the Company’s maximum leverage ratio. If an event of default occurs, all amounts outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility agreement may be accelerated and become immediately due and payable. At June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, we were in compliance with the covenants of the Amended Credit Facility.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
Consignment and Customer Arrangements for Precious Metals. We use precious metals, primarily silver, in the production of some of our products. We obtain precious metals from financial institutions under consignment agreements. The financial institutions retain ownership of the precious metals and charge us fees based on the amounts we consign and the period of consignment. These fees were $0.4$1.1 million and $0.3$0.4 million for the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2019 and 2018, and 2017 respectively. We had on hand precious metals owned by participants in our precious metals program of $44.1$53.6 million at June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, and $37.7$55.2 million at December 31, 2017,2018, measured at fair value based on market prices for identical assets.
The consignment agreements under our precious metals program involve short-term commitments that typically mature within 30 to 90 days of each transaction and are typically renewed on an ongoing basis. As a result, the Company relies on the continued willingness of financial institutions to participate in these arrangements to maintain this source of liquidity. On occasion, we have been required to deliver cash collateral. While no deposits were outstanding at June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, or December 31, 2017,2018, we may be required to furnish cash collateral in the future based on the quantity and market value of the precious metals under consignment and the amount of collateral-free lines provided by the financial institutions. The amount of cash collateral required is subject to review by the financial institutions and can be changed at any time at their discretion, based in part on their assessment of our creditworthiness.
International Receivable Sales Programs
Bank GuaranteesWe have several international programs to sell without recourse trade accounts receivable to financial institutions. These transactions are treated as a sale and Standby Lettersare accounted for as a reduction in accounts receivable because the agreements transfer effective control over and risk related to the receivables to the buyers. The Company continues to service the receivables sold in exchange for a fee. The program, whose maximum capacity is €100 million, is scheduled to expire in December 2023. The outstanding principal amount of Credit.receivables sold under this program was $63.9 million at March 31, 2019 and $71.3 million at December 31, 2018. The carrying amount
4234
of deferred purchase price was $23.1 million at March 31, 2019 and $23.0 million at December 31, 2018, and is recorded in Other Receivables.
Bank Guarantees and Standby Letters of Credit.
At June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, the Company and its subsidiaries had bank guarantees and standby letters of credit issued by financial institutions that totaled $8.17.4 million. These agreements primarily relate to Ferro’s insurance programs, foreign energy purchase contracts and foreign tax payments.
Other Financing Arrangements
We maintain other lines of credit to provide global flexibility for Ferro’s short-term liquidity requirements. These facilities are uncommitted lines for our international operations and totaled $43.3 million and $64.5 million at June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, respectively. We had $21.1 million and $39.4 million of additional borrowings available under these lines at June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, respectively.
Liquidity Requirements
Our primary sources of liquidity are available cash and cash equivalents, available lines of credit under the revolving credit facility, and cash flows from operating activities. As of June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, we had $44.9$57.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. The majority of our cash and cash equivalents were held by foreign subsidiaries. Cash generated in the U.S. is generally used to pay down amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions. If needed, we could repatriate the majority of cash held by foreign subsidiaries without the need to accrue and pay U.S. income taxes. We do not anticipate a liquidity need requiring such repatriation of these funds to the U.S.
Our liquidity requirements and uses primarily include debt service, purchase commitments, labor costs, working capital requirements, restructuring expenditures, acquisition costs, capital investments, precious metals cash collateral requirements, and postretirement obligations. We expect to meet these requirements in the long term through cash provided by operating activities and availability under existing credit facilities or other financing arrangements. Cash flows (used in) provided by operating activities are primarily driven by earnings before non-cash charges and changes in working capital needs. We had additional borrowing capacity of $515.9$472.1 million at June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, and $356.7$525.6 million at December 31, 2017,2018, available under our various credit facilities, primarily our revolving credit facility.the 2018 Revolving Facility.
We have signed definitive acquisition agreements (subject to customary closing conditions) in JulyThe 2018 with purchase prices in the aggregate amount of approximately $70 million.
Our revolving credit facilityRevolving Facility subjects us to a customary financial covenant regarding the Company’s maximum leverage ratio. This covenant under our Amended Credit Facility restricts the amount of our borrowings, reducing our flexibility to fund ongoing operations and strategic initiatives.
As of June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, we were in compliance with our maximum leverage ratio covenant of 4.25x4.00x as our actual ratio was 2.86x,2.95x, providing $92.1$78.4 million of EBITDA cushion on the leverage ratio, as defined within the Amended Credit Facility. To the extent that economic conditions in key markets deteriorate or we are unable to meet our business projections and EBITDA falls below approximately $189$219 million for rolling four quarters, based on reasonably consistent net debt levels with those as of June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, we could become unable to maintain compliance with our leverage ratio covenant. In such case, our lenders could demand immediate payment of outstanding amounts and we would need to seek alternate financing sources to pay off such debts and to fund our ongoing operations. Such financing may not be available on favorable terms, if at all.
Difficulties experienced in global capital markets could affect the ability or willingness of counterparties to perform under our various lines of credit, forward contracts, and precious metals program. These counterparties are major, reputable, multinational institutions, all having investment-grade credit ratings. Accordingly, we do not anticipate counterparty default. However, an interruption in access to external financing could adversely affect our business prospects and financial condition.
We assess on an ongoing basis our portfolio of businesses, as well as our financial and capital structure, to ensure that we have sufficient capital and liquidity to meet our strategic objectives. As part of this process, from time to time we evaluate the possible divestiture of businesses that are not critical to our core strategic objectives and, where appropriate, pursue the sale of such businesses and assets. We also evaluate and pursue acquisition opportunities that we believe will enhance our strategic position. Generally, we publicly announce divestiture and acquisition transactions only when we have entered into a material definitive agreement or closed on those transactions.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The primary objective of the following information is to provide forward-looking quantitative and qualitative information about our exposure to instruments that are sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
Our exposure to interest rate risk arises from our debt portfolio. We manage this risk by controlling the mix of fixedfixed-rate versus variable-rate debt after considering the interest rate environment and expected future cash flows. To reduce our exposure to interest rate changes on variable ratevariable-rate debt, we have entered into interest rate swap agreements. These swaps effectively convert a portion of our variable ratevariable-rate debt to a fixed rate. Our objective is to limit variability in earnings, cash flows and overall borrowing costs caused by changes in interest rates, while preserving operating flexibility.
We operate internationally and enter into transactions denominated in foreign currencies. These transactions expose us to gains and losses arising from exchange rate movements between the dates foreign currencies are recorded and the dates they are settled. We manage this risk by entering into forward currency contracts that substantially offset these gains and losses.
The notional amounts, carrying amounts of assets (liabilities), and fair values associated with our exposure to these market risks and sensitivity analysis about potential gains (losses) resulting from hypothetical changes in market rates are presented in the table below.
