(1)As of December 31, 2019, the Company reclassified a portion of the liability within the Welbilt Deferred Compensation Plan totaling $0.4 million from "Other long-term liabilities" to "Treasury stock" to properly net the liability with the corresponding Welbilt common stock owned by the Deferred Compensation Plan. See further discussion in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Welbilt and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP"). All intercompany balances and transactions between the Company and its affiliates have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include inventory obsolescence costs, ~~asset impairments,~~ warranty costs, product liability costs, employee benefit programs, sales rebates ~~loss contingencies~~ and the measurement of income tax assets and liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates these assumptions, judgments and estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has created and may continue to create significant uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment which, in addition to other unforeseen effects of this pandemic, may adversely impact the Company's future operating results. As a result, many of the Company's estimates and assumptions may require increased judgment and involve a higher degree of variability and volatility. As the impacts of the pandemic continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, these estimates may change materially in future periods.

In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019,~~ the financial position as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 and the cash flows for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019,~~ and except as otherwise discussed herein, such adjustments consist only of those of a normal recurring nature. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved in a full reporting year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC rules and regulations governing interim financial statements. However, the Company believes that the disclosures made in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

All dollar amounts, except share and per share amounts, are in millions of dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Government Assistance

The Company's policy for government assistance is to recognize the assistance when there is reasonable assurance that the Company has met the substantive conditions of and requirements for receiving the assistance. The government assistance is recorded as a reduction to the related expense ~~for~~to which the assistance relates. AsBeginning in the second quarter of 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, governments in various jurisdictions in which the Company operates have provided financial assistance designed to offset salary expenditures associated with companies maintaining their ~~pre-COVID-19~~pre-pandemic employee headcount levels. The Company has applied and will continue to apply for such assistance programs where relevant requirements and conditions have been met.

For the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the Company met the requirements to receive ~~$6.0~~$1.8 million ~~and $11.8 million, respectively,~~ of government assistance in the form of cash, cost abatements and retention credits. As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the Company has a receivable for ~~$2.5~~$1.9 million related to government assistance. No government assistance was received during the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

~~-10-~~

Government assistance has been reflected as a reduction to the related expense for which the assistance relates as follows:

(in millions) Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended
September 30, 2020 September 30, 2020
Reduction to related expense(1):
Cost of sales $ 1.9 $ 3.1

(1) As of ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, ~~$3.3~~$0.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively, of government assistance was included as a reduction in capitalized labor, ~~which~~and is included as a component of "Inventories — net". This portion of government assistance will be recognized as a reduction to "Cost of sales" when the associated inventory is sold.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2018-15, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract," which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software, with amortization expense being recorded in the same income statement expense line as the hosted service costs and over the expected term of the hosting arrangement. This standard was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020 and has been adopted prospectively for applicable implementation costs incurred subsequent to the effective date.

~~In June 2016, the FASB issued~~ ~~ASU 2016-13~~, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments," including subsequent amendments issued thereafter which clarify the standard (collectively, "Topic 326"), which significantly changes the impairment model for most financial instruments. Current guidance requires the recognition of credit losses based on an incurred loss impairment methodology that reflects losses once the losses are probable. In accordance with Topic 326, the Company is required to use a current expected credit loss model (“CECL”) that will immediately recognize an estimate of credit losses that are expected to occur over the life of the financial instruments that are within the scope of this update, including trade receivables. The CECL model uses a broader range of reasonable and supportable information in the development of credit loss estimates. This standard was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020 and, upon adoption, the Company recorded an additional expected credit loss allowance with an offsetting adjustment to retained earnings of $0.4 million.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework- Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement". The amendments in this update modify the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and were adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2020. As this amendment contemplates changes in disclosures only there was no impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations. Refer to Note 11, "Fair Value of Financial Instruments," for the additional required disclosures.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting" ("ASU 2020-04") to provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications, hedge accounting and other transactions affected by the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. ASU 2020-04 is effective upon issuance and the Company may elect to apply the standard through December 31, 2022. This guidance primarily impacts the interest expense under the Company's 2016 Credit Facility which utilizes LIBOR as a basis. As the Company has not executed a modification of the interest component of this financial instrument and does not have related outstanding hedges in place as of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the guidance has not impacted the Company's consolidated financial statements to date. The Company will evaluate the impact of adopting this guidance at the time such transition to an alternative reference rate occurs.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes" ("ASU 2019-12"), which amends, and is intended to simplify, existing guidance related to the accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 prospectively as of January 1, 2021 which did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes" ("ASU 2019-12"), which amends, and is intended to simplify, existing guidance related to the accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2021. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements subsequent to January 1, 2021.

Recent accounting guidance not discussed above is not applicable, did not have, or is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.

3. ~~Accounts Receivable Securitization~~

Prior to its termination on March 13, 2019, the Company participated in a $110.0 million accounts receivable securitization program whereby the Company sold certain of its domestic trade accounts receivable and certain of its non-U.S. trade accounts receivable to a wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote, foreign special purpose entity, which would in turn, sell, convey, transfer and assign to a third-party financial institution (the “Purchaser”), all the rights, title and interest in and to its pool of receivables. Upon termination of the program, the Purchaser had no recourse for uncollectible receivables. During the period of this program, cash receipts from the Purchaser at the time of the sale were classified as operating activities while cash receipts from the beneficial interest on sold receivables were classified as investing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

In connection with the termination of the accounts receivable securitization program during the first quarter of 2019, $156.9 million of accounts receivable sold under the program were reacquired in exchange for the outstanding deferred purchase price receivable and cash, which was provided by receipts of previously sold trade receivables. Cash receipts on the reacquired receivables were $149.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and have been classified as an investing activity in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As of June 30, 2019, the reacquired trade receivables had either been collected or reserved.

6.5. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets — Net

The Company's annual impairment tests of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are performed as of June 30 of each fiscal year and whenever a triggering event occurs between annual impairment tests. The Company's trademarks and tradenames are classified as indefinite-lived intangible assets as there are no regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors which limit the useful lives of these intangible assets. The indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test is performed at the Company's unit of account level, which is the Americas, EMEA and APAC. The goodwill impairment test is performed for the Company's reporting units, which are the Americas, EMEA and APAC.

~~-12-~~

During the first quarter of 2020, as a result of the decrease in demand for commercial foodservice equipment and aftermarket parts resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and impacts on the Company's current and estimated future operating cash flows, management performed a review of the Company's goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets to determine whether it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value of such assets was less than their carrying amount as of March 31, 2020.

This review included the Company's evaluation of relevant events and circumstances in totality that affect the fair value of the reporting units or indefinite-lived intangible assets. These events and circumstances include, but are not limited to, macroeconomic conditions (including the impact of COVID-19), industry and competitive environment conditions, overall financial performance, business specific events and market considerations. The majority of the Company's goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets were generated on a legacy basis and as a result have fair values that sufficiently exceed their underlying carrying values. However, additional goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets attributable to the EMEA and APAC regions were generated as a result of a recent acquisition in April 2018.

Management's review concluded for each of its reporting units and for the Americas indefinite-lived intangible assets that it is not more-likely-than-not that the fair value is less than the carrying amount based on the preponderance of evidence. Therefore, no impairment was indicated and no impairment test was required to be performed as of March 31, 2020. However, for both the EMEA and APAC indefinite-lived intangible assets, the review indicated, based on limited fair value cushion and overall financial performance expectations, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets is less than the carrying amount and, therefore, a quantitative impairment test was performed as of March 31, 2020.

-11-

The Company estimated the fair value of the EMEA and APAC indefinite-lived intangible assets based on an income approach using the relief-from-royalty method. This approach was dependent upon several factors, including estimates of future growth and trends, royalty rates, discount rates and other variables. Management based its fair value estimates on assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which ~~are inherently uncertain and could materially affect the valuations. These estimated fair values~~ were then compared to the carrying values of the relevant indefinite-lived intangible asset and to the extent the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value, an impairment loss was recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeded the estimated fair value of the asset.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company determined that the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets in the EMEA region exceeded their estimated fair value and as a result, an impairment charge of $11.1 million was recorded for the first quarter of 2020. This impairment charge has been reflected as a component of "Loss from impairment and disposal of assets — net" for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2020. Management determined that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets in the APAC region exceeded the carrying value of these assets and, therefore, concluded there was 0 impairment of these assets as of March 31, 2020.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company performed its annual impairment testing for its goodwill reporting units, as well as its indefinite-lived intangible assets, and based on those results, 0 impairment was indicated. The Company estimated the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets based on an income approach using the relief-from-royalty method. This approach was dependent upon several factors, including estimates of future growth and trends, royalty rates, discount rates and other variables. Management based its fair value estimates on assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and could materially affect the valuations. For eachThere were no further impairments of the Company's ~~regions,~~indefinite lived intangible assets during the ~~estimated fair values~~remainder of the ~~relevant indefinite-lived intangible assets was greater than or approximated~~year ended December 31, 2020. In addition, there were no triggering events identified by the ~~carrying values, resulting in no~~Company during the first quarter of 2021 which would require management to perform an impairment ~~of the relevant assets. Although no reporting units failed the annual impairment testing, in~~test. In management’s opinion, the indefinite-lived intangible assets in the EMEA region ~~are~~could be at risk of impairment in the near term if there is a negative change in the future financial performance of the EMEA region. As of both ~~September 30,~~December 31, 2020 and ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets ~~approximate~~in the EMEA region approximated the fair value as a result of anthe impairment charge recorded during the first quarter of 2020, as discussed above.

The duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic or other industry or competitive changes could result in future impairment charges to the Company's goodwill and remaining indefinite-lived intangible assets. Despite management's implemented strategies to address these events, a prolonged or more pronounced effect of the COVID-19 pandemic could negatively impact the results of operations and future financial performance expectations, resulting in changes in operating plans, or cause other adverse changes in the business, the foodservice industry or the macroeconomic environment, such as interest rate changes, that could trigger an impairment in the future.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") was enacted on March 27, 2020 and includes many measures intended to assist companies during the COVID-19 pandemic including temporary changes to income and non-income-based tax laws, some of which were enacted under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Act") in 2017. As a result of the Tax Act and the CARES Act, additional legislative and regulatory guidance has been and may continue to be issued, including final regulations that could impact the Company's effective tax rate in future periods.

For the three months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the Company recorded a ~~$1.2~~$1.9 million income tax ~~benefit,~~expense, reflecting a ~~(32.4)%~~19.4% effective tax rate, compared to a ~~$9.4~~$0.2 million income tax ~~provision~~benefit for the three months ended ~~September 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, reflecting a ~~31.9%~~1.3% effective tax rate. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 compared to the same period of the prior year is primarily the result of the Company's ~~decrease~~increase in earnings before income taxes and changes in discrete tax items as a result of the change in uncertain tax positions, CARES Act net operating loss carryback provisions enacted in 2020 and the relative weighting of jurisdictional income and loss. For the three months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the income tax ~~benefit is primarily comprised of a net discrete benefit~~ of ~~$1.2 million,primarily related to the uncertain tax position for net interest deduction limitations, and changes in discrete tax items related to the CARES Act net operating loss carryback provisions.~~

~~For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded a $9.2 million income tax benefit, reflecting a 25.0% effective tax rate, compared to a $16.6 million income tax~~ provision reflecting a 30.7% effective tax rate, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The change in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period of the prior year is primarily the result of ~~the Company's decrease in earnings before income taxes, changes in discrete tax items associated with the CARES Act including changes allowing for net operating loss carryback provisions and~~ the relative weighting of jurisdictional income and loss. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the income tax benefit includes net discrete expenses of $5.0 million primarily related to provisions of the CARES Act discussed above compared to $0.7 million discrete expenses related to stock-based compensation and foreign tax adjustments for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 varies from the 21.0% U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to discrete tax items generated from the provisions of the CARES Act for net operating loss carryback and interest limitations, changes in uncertain tax positions for foreign income subject to U.S. tax, foreign income or loss before income taxes and relative weighting of foreign earnings before income taxes. The Company's effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 varies from the 21.0% U.S. federal statutory rate for the items discussed for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as well as the impact of the indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment in the Company's EMEA region. The Company’s effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 vary from the 21.0% U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the relative weighting of foreign earnings before income taxes, discrete tax items and taxes on foreign income. The Company’s 1.3% effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 also included net discrete expenses of $4.6 million primarily related to the CARES Act legislation, including changes allowing for net operating loss carryback. Foreign earnings are generated from operations in all of the Company’s 3 geographic segments, Americas, EMEA and APAC.

As of each reporting date, the Company’s management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could impact management’s view regarding the future realization of deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to evaluate its valuation allowance requirements, including the U.S. interest expense limitation of the Tax ~~Act, as temporarily modified under the CARES~~ Act. ~~Due to the revised interest deduction limitations~~As of ~~the CARES Act,~~March 31, 2021, the Company has determined that a valuation allowance is not required for the deferred tax asset associated with ~~the~~ U.S. interest ~~expense as of September 30, 2020.~~expense. The Company may adjust its deferred tax asset valuation allowances based on possible sources of taxable income that may be available to realize a tax benefit for deferred tax assets. As facts and circumstances change, the Company may also adjust its deferred tax asset valuation allowances accordingly. Such changes in the deferred tax asset valuation allowances ~~will~~would be reflected in current operations through the Company’s income tax provision and could have a material effect on the Company’s operating ~~results.~~results for the respective period.

The Company's unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, were ~~$7.1~~$9.8 million and ~~$4.2~~$9.9 million as of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. During the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that unrecognized tax benefits could change in the range of ~~$0.6~~$1.6 million to ~~$1.0~~$2.0 million due to the expiration of relevant statutes of limitations and federal, state and foreign tax audit resolutions. As of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020, the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets includes ~~$49.1~~$27.1 million and ~~$11.3~~$27.4 million, respectively, of income tax receivables, classified within "Prepaids and other current assets."

The Company files tax returns in multiple jurisdictions and is subject to examination by taxing authorities globally. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from examinations to determine the adequacy of its ~~tax reserves. The Company is currently under audit by the tax authorities in Germany for the years 2015-2018 and in the U.S. for the 2017-2018 federal~~ income tax ~~returns as well as various other state income tax and jurisdictional audits.~~ reserves.

As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the Company believes that it is more-likely-than-not that the tax positions it has taken will be sustained upon the resolution of its audits, resulting in no material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. However, the final determination with respect to any tax audits, and any related litigation, could be materially different from the Company's estimates and/or from its historical income tax provisions and accruals and could have a material effect on operating results and/or cash flows in the periods for which that determination is made. In addition, future period earnings may be adversely impacted by litigation costs, settlements, penalties and/or interest assessments.

The Company is currently under audit by the tax authorities in Germany for the years 2015-2018 and in the U.S. for the 2017 and 2018 federal income tax returns, as well as various other state income tax and jurisdictional audits. The Company's federal and state income tax returns for tax years 2017 through 2019, and 2016 through 2019, respectively, remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and various state taxing authorities. Generally, the tax years 2016 through 2020 remain subject to examination in Canada, tax years 2015 through 2020 remain subject to examination in Germany, and tax years 2010 through 2020 remain subject to examination in China.

As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the Company intends to continue reinvesting foreign earnings indefinitely outside of the U.S. with certain limited exceptions, and has not recorded a deferred tax liability for U.S. state income taxes, foreign withholding or other foreign income taxes that would be due if cash is repatriated to the U.S. because those foreign earnings are considered permanently reinvested or may be remitted substantially free of any additional income or withholding taxes. While the Company does not anticipate a need to repatriate funds to the U.S. to satisfy domestic liquidity needs, management reviews cash positions regularly and, to the extent it is determined that all or a portion of foreign earnings will not remain indefinitely reinvested, the Company will record a liability for the additional taxes, if applicable, including foreign withholding taxes and U.S. state income taxes. Further, the determination of the amount of the unrecognized deferred tax liability related to the undistributed earnings is not practicable.

(1) Total debt issuance costs, net of amortization as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, were ~~$21.5~~$19.0 million and ~~$23.0~~$20.3 million, respectively, of which ~~$3.9~~$3.3 million and ~~$2.5~~$3.6 million, respectively, are related to the Revolving Credit Facility ~~(as defined below)~~ and recorded in "Other non-current assets" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As previously disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, amortization of debt issuance costs previously included as a component of "Other expense (income) — net" totaled $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and has been reclassified to include as a component of "Interest expense" in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations.

(2) Balance represents deferred gains from the terminations of interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges.

In March 2016, the Company entered into a credit agreement, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time (the "2016 Credit Agreement") for a $1,300.0 million Senior Secured Credit Facility (the "Senior Secured Credit Facility") consisting of (i) a senior secured Term Loan B facility in an aggregate principal amount of $900.0 million (the "Term Loan B Facility") and (ii) a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). The 2016 Credit Agreement also provides for a (i) a sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit under the revolving commitments up to $30.0 million and (ii) an aggregate principal amount of allowed incremental revolving or term loan facilities thereunder in an amount not to exceed the sum of (a) $275.0 million plus (b) an additional amount, as long as after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional amount, the ~~pro forma~~proforma secured leverage ratio does not exceed 3.75:1.00. The ~~maturities~~maturity of the Term Loan B Facility and Revolving Credit Facility ~~are~~is October 2025 and October 2023, respectively. Each of the terms above were applicable with the latest amendment completed in April 2020, as further discussed below.

-14-

Through the first half of 2019, borrowings under the 2016 Credit Agreement bore interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the Company's option, either (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.50% for the Term Loan B Facility and 1.50% to 2.50% for the Revolving Credit Facility (depending on the Company's Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio) or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin that is 1.00% less than the LIBOR-based applicable margin. Beginning in the third quarter of 2019, the spreads for LIBOR and alternate base rate borrowings for the Revolving Credit Facility were 2.25% and 1.25%, respectively. Beginning in the second quarter of 2020, the spreads for LIBOR and alternate base rate borrowings for the Revolving Credit Facility were 2.50% and 1.50%, respectively, as a result of the Company's Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of March 31, 2020.

The 2016 Credit Agreement contains financial covenants including, but not limited to (a) a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio, which measures the ratio of (i) Consolidated EBITDA to (ii) Consolidated Interest Expense, and (b) a Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio, which measures the ratio of (i) Consolidated Indebtedness to (ii) Consolidated EBITDA for the most recent four fiscal quarters, in each case, as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement.

OnIn April ~~17,~~ 2020, the Company entered into Amendment No. 7 ~~(the “Amendment”~~(“Amendment No.7”) to the 2016 Credit Agreement, to amend the financial covenants of the Revolving Credit Facility to prevent non-compliance with these financial covenants for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the commercial foodservice industry and the resulting decrease in demand for the Company's products. The terms of ~~the~~ Amendment No.7, among other items, (i) suspend the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio covenants, in each case, as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement, for four fiscal quarters ~~through~~until March 31, 2021 ("Suspension Period") and (ii) temporarily replace the suspended covenants with a Minimum Consolidated EBITDA covenant and a Maximum Capital Expenditure covenant, each computed on a trailing four quarters basis and measured quarterly, and a Minimum Liquidity covenant that is measured monthly, each as defined in the Amendment, throughout the Suspension Period, with the Minimum Liquidity covenant extending through June 30, 2021.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2020, the spreads for LIBOR and alternate base rate borrowings for the Revolving Credit Facility were 2.50% and 1.50%, respectively, as a result of the Company's Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of March 31, 2020.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2021, the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio covenants will be reinstated at modified levels as compared to the covenants in effect ~~beginning~~as of June 30, 2020 and will ~~phase-in~~return to the ~~pre-Amendment~~March 31, 2020 covenant levels by the fourth quarter of 2021.

~~-16-~~

~~The~~ Amendment No.7 prohibits draws under the Revolving Credit Facility (i) if the Company has not evidenced compliance with the financial covenants for the year ~~ended~~ending December 31, 2021 by delivery of a compliance certificate within 90 days, and (ii) to the extent the draw would result in a consolidated cash balance of $100.0 million or greater (excluding cash held in China) through December 31, 2021, with the exception of draws to meet cash uses anticipated in the ordinary course of business that are expected to be paid within 10 days of the draw. ~~The~~ Amendment No.7 also includes additional limitations on restricted payments, investments and other actions that are otherwise allowed under the 2016 Credit Agreement, with a $25.0 million carve-out for general investments. These limitations expire on December 31, 2021.

~~The~~ Amendment No.7 also includes a quarterly fee applicable through the fourth quarter of 2021 in an amount equal to a per annum rate of 0.50% on the average outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Facility payable on a quarterly basis. The Company incurred total debt issuance costs in connection with ~~this~~ Amendment No. 7 of $2.1 million, which were capitalized and included as a component of "Other non-current assets" on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized through the maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility.

As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the Company had ~~$7.1~~$6.6 million in outstanding stand-by letters of credit and ~~$210.0~~$213.4 million available for additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, to the extent the Company's compliance with financial covenants permits such borrowings. As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the Company also had ~~$1.7~~$1.3 million in other outstanding letters of credit or guarantees of payment to certain third-parties in accordance with commercial terms and conditions which did not reduce the amount available for additional ~~borrowing~~borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all affirmative and negative covenants, including any financial covenants, pertaining to its financing arrangements. The Company continually monitors its compliance with the covenants in its Revolving Credit Facility, and in doing so has ~~estimated~~made estimates of the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its financial position, results of operations and cash ~~flows;~~flows. The Company believes it will remain in compliance with all such covenants for the next 12 months; however, due to the inherent uncertainty of the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business, management's estimates of the achievement of its financial covenants may change in the future. In the second and third quarters of 2020, the Company executed contingency plans for its operations and reduced operating expenses and capital spending as necessary, including reductions in the size of the Company's workforce and temporary employee furloughs. As of September 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all affirmative and negative covenants pertaining to its financing arrangements.

~~10.~~9. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company's risk management objective is to ensure that business exposures to risks that have been identified and measured and are capable of being controlled are minimized or managed using what the Company believes to be the most effective and efficient methods to eliminate, reduce or transfer such exposures. Operating decisions consider these associated risks and the Company structures transactions to minimize or manage these risks whenever possible.

The primary risks the Company manages using derivative instruments are interest rate risk, commodity price risk and foreign currency exchange risk. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s fixed and floating-rate borrowings. Cross-currency interest rate swaps are entered into to protect the value of the Company’s investments in its foreign subsidiaries. Swap contracts on various commodities are used to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of materials used in the Company's manufacturing process. The Company also enters into various foreign currency derivative instruments to manage foreign currency risk associated with its projected purchases and sales and foreign currency denominated receivable and payable balances.

The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Commodity swaps and foreign currency exchange contracts are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted purchases of commodities and currencies, certain interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges of floating-rate borrowings, and the remainder of the instruments are designated as fair value hedges of fixed-rate borrowings and a cross-currency interest rate swap as a hedge of net investments in its foreign subsidiaries.

-15-

~~Discontinuance of Cash Flow Hedge Accounting for Commodity Contracts~~

Through September 30, 2019 the Company designated all of its commodity derivative contracts as cash flow hedges, for which unrealized changes in fair value were recorded to "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" ("AOCI") in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets, to the extent the commodity hedges were effective. As of October 1, 2019, the Company elected to de-designate all of its commodity derivative contracts and as a result, the Company now recognizes all future gains and losses from changes in the fair value of the commodity derivative immediately in earnings. As a result of discontinuing hedge accounting effective October 1, 2019, the associated amounts in AOCI as of September 30, 2019 remained in AOCI and have been reclassified into earnings when the original hedged transaction affects earnings or it becomes probable that the forecasted transactions will not occur.

Cash flow hedging strategy

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in ~~AOCI~~Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss "(AOCI") in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the periods in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates ~~$0.1~~$0.4 million of unrealized gains, net of tax, related to currency rate and commodity price hedging will be reclassified from AOCI into earnings. Foreign currency and commodity hedging, prior to de-designation, is generally completed prospectively on a rolling basis for 15 and 36 months, respectively, depending on the type of risk being hedged.

~~-17-~~

~~In March 2017,~~Prior to 2020, the Company entered into 2 interest rate swap agreements ~~with a total notional amount of $600.0 million,~~ to manage interest rate risk exposure by converting the Company’s floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis, thus reducing the impact from fluctuations in interest rates on future interest expense. These interest rate swap agreements involved the receipt of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the life of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal. ~~These~~The remaining interest rate swap ~~agreements~~agreement with a notional ~~amounts~~amount of $425.0 ~~million and $175.0~~ million matured in the first quarter of ~~2020 and 2019, respectively.~~2020.

The ~~Company's~~ outstanding currency forward contracts which were entered into as hedges of forecasted transactions and continue to qualify for hedge accounting are as follows:

Fair value hedging strategy

For derivative instruments that qualify and are designated as a fair value hedge (i.e. hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or an identified portion thereof that is attributable to a particular risk), the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in the same line item associated with the hedged item in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In October 2017, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a total notional amount of $425.0 million to manage interest rate risk exposure by converting the Company’s fixed-rate debt to a floating-rate basis. This agreement involved the receipt of fixed rate amounts in exchange for floating rate interest payments over the life of the agreement without an exchange of the underlying principal and had a scheduled maturity of February 2024. In June 2019, this interest rate swap agreement was terminated, and the Company received cash in the amount of $14.0 million, representing the fair value of the swap and interest accrued through the date of termination.

Hedge of net investment in foreign operations strategy

For derivative instruments that qualify and are designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign currency, the gain or loss is reported in AOCI as a component of the cumulative translation adjustment. Amounts are reclassified out of AOCI into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.

In March 2017, the Company entered into a three-year cross-currency interest rate swap contract ("CCS") for a notional value of €50.0 million to protect the value of its net investment in Euros. Prior to ~~its~~the expiration of the CCS in March 2020, the carrying value of the net investment in Euros was designated as a hedging instrument and remeasured at each reporting date to reflect the changes in the foreign currency exchange spot rate, with changes since the last remeasurement date recorded in AOCI. Upon expiration of the CCS in March 2020, the Company paid $4.1 million representing the final notional exchange at the expiration date spot exchange rate, which has been classified as an investing activity in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The location and effects of the net investment hedge on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Consolidated Statements of Operations are as follows:

10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

In accordance with the Company's policy, fair value is defined as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The policy classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or

Unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability

Level 3 Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

Interim Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company utilizes the best available information in measuring fair value. The carrying values of cash, restricted cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and trade accounts payable approximate fair value, without being discounted, as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019, as applicable,~~2020, due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The ~~Company records its~~Company's Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan B Facility and Senior Notes are recorded at their carrying values on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets, as disclosed in Note 9,8, "Debt." The carrying value of the Revolving Credit Facility approximates its fair value due to the short-term variable interest rates of the borrowings. The Company estimates the fair value of the Term Loan B Facility and the Senior Notes based on quoted market prices of the instruments. Because these instruments are typically thinly traded, the assets and liabilities are classified as Level 2 ~~within~~of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company's Term Loan B Facility was approximately ~~$780.2~~$822.4 million and ~~$860.9~~$814.9 million as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. The fair value of the Company's Senior Notes was approximately ~~$435.8~~$438.3 million and ~~$450.9~~$439.9 million as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company's assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis are primarily property, plant and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, goodwill and other intangible assets. These fair value measurements are generally determined when there is a transaction involving those assets and liabilities, such as a purchase transaction, a business combination or an adjustment for impairment.

See Note 6,5, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets — Net," for information regarding the impairment charge resulting from the fair value measurement of the Company's indefinite-lived intangible assets in the EMEA region performed on a nonrecurring basis ~~during the nine months ended September 30,~~as of March 31, 2020. The Company ~~has~~ determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its EMEA region indefinite-lived intangible assets ~~are~~for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, were unobservable inputs that fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and include the ~~following for the impairment charge recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2020:~~following:

Product-Related and Environmental Matters

As of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had reserved ~~$40.8~~$39.6 million and ~~$43.9~~$39.9 million, respectively, for product-related warranty claims expected to be paid. Certain of these warranty and other related claims involve matters in dispute that will ultimately be resolved by negotiations, arbitration or litigation. See Note ~~13,~~12, "Product Warranties," for further information.

As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the Company has various product liability lawsuits pending. For products sold outside of the U.S. and Canada, the Company is insured by third-party insurance companies. For products sold in the U.S. and Canada, the Company is insured, to the extent

permitted under applicable law, with self-insurance retention levels. The Company's self-insurance retention levels vary by business and fluctuate with the Company's risk management practices.

Product liability reserves are included in "Accrued expenses and other liabilities" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and totaled ~~$1.6~~$1.5 million and ~~$1.3~~$1.7 million as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively, ~~consisted~~consisting of ~~$1.0~~$0.7 million and ~~$0.7~~$0.9 million, respectively, reserved for specific cases and ~~$0.6~~$0.8 million reserved ~~as of both September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 for claims, calculated~~ using actuarial methods and anticipated to have occurred but are not yet ~~reported.~~reported as of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Based on the Company's experience in defending product liability claims, management believes the reserves are adequate for estimated case resolutions on aggregate self-insured claims and third-party insured claims. Any recoveries from insurance carriers are dependent upon the legal sufficiency of claims and solvency of insurance carriers. Such recoveries are not recorded until the associated contingencies are resolved and the recoveries are realizable.

As of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company held reserves for environmental matters related to certain of its current and former facilities of ~~approximately $0.8~~$0.5 million and ~~$0.7~~$0.8 million, respectively, which are included in "Accrued expenses and other liabilities" in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. ~~At certain~~ As of March 31, 2021, there have been no other claims asserted for soil or groundwater contamination at any of the ~~Company's~~Company’s other facilities, ~~potential contaminants~~but there can be no assurance that such claims will not arise in the ~~soil and groundwater have been identified.~~future. The ultimate cost of any remediation that may be required ~~remediation~~ will depend upon the results of future investigation and is not reasonably estimable. Based upon available information, the Company does not expect the ultimate costs of any required remediation at any of these facilities will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows individually or in the aggregate.

It is reasonably possible that the estimates for product warranty, product liability and environmental remediation costs may change based upon new information that may arise or matters that are beyond the scope of the Company's historical experience. Presently, there are no reliable methods to estimate the amount of any such potential changes.

Other Contingencies

The Company is subject to litigation, government inquiries, audits, commercial disputes, claims and other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. From time to time, the Company may be subject to audits by tax, export, customs and other governmental authorities or incur routine and non-routine fees, expenses or penalties relating to compliance with complex laws and regulations impacting the Company's business. The Company records accruals for anticipated losses related to legal and other matters, which are both probable and reasonably estimable, as well as for related legal costs as incurred. The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for such matters as of ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, based on the best available ~~information.~~information. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of such legal and other matters is not expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

~~The~~As previously disclosed, the Company ~~has~~ voluntarily disclosed to U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") certain errors in the declaration of imported products relating to quantity, value, classification, North American Free Trade Agreement eligibility and other matters as well as potential violations of antidumping and countervailing duties. Following such disclosures, the Company began a comprehensive review of its import practices in order to quantify the loss of revenue to CBP. In April 2020, the Company determined based on its continued analysis and testing of relevant records of import activity, ~~an estimated~~a potential range of ~~potential~~ loss ~~for customs duties, fees~~was both probable and ~~interest owed for previously imported products through March 31, 2020 to be $3.1 million to $9.0 million.

~~Through September 30,~~evant records throughout 2020 ~~based on ongoing analyses, the Company has determined the estimated range of potential loss for customs duties, fees~~ and ~~interest owed for previously imported products to be $3.6 million to $6.2 million.

~~13.~~12. Product Warranties

In the normal course of business, the Company provides its customers with product warranties covering workmanship, and in some cases materials, on products manufactured by the Company. Such product warranties generally provide that products will be free from defects for periods ranging from 12 to 60 months, with certain equipment having longer-term warranties. If a product fails to comply with the Company's warranty, the Company may be obligated, at its expense, to correct any defect by repairing or replacing such defective products. The Company accrues an estimate of costs that may be incurred under the product warranty at the time the product revenue is recognized. These costs include estimates of labor and materials, as necessary, associated with repair or replacement of the products. The primary factors which impact the warranty liability include the number of units shipped and historical and anticipated warranty claims. As these factors are impacted by actual experience and future expectations, the Company assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability on an ongoing basis and adjusts the liability as determined necessary.

The ~~total~~ product warranty liability activity for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 is as follows:


(in millions)
Balance as of December 31, ~~2019~~2020(1)	$	~~43.9~~39.9
Additions for issuance of warranties	~~21.3~~6.5
Settlements (in cash or in kind)	~~(24.3)~~(6.8)
~~Currency translation impact~~	~~(0.1)~~
Balance as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021(1)	$	~~40.8~~39.6

The Company also sells extended warranties, which are recorded as deferred revenue and are amortized to "Net sales" on a straight-line basis over the extended warranty period. The short-term portion of deferred revenue on extended warranties, included in "Accrued expenses and other liabilities" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets ~~as of~~at both ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, was ~~$1.8~~$1.9 million.

~~14.~~13. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company sponsors and maintains defined benefit retirement plans ("Pension Plans") and postretirement health and other plans ("Postretirement Health and Other Plans") (collectively "Defined Benefit Plans") for certain retired and resigned employees. Benefits under the employee retirement plans are primarily based on years of service and compensation during the years immediately preceding retirement. The current plans are based largely upon benefit plans maintained prior to the ~~spin-off from the Company's former parent~~Spin-off and are generally closed to new participants.

The components of ~~the~~ periodic benefit costs for the Company's Defined Benefit Plans are as follows:

~~15.~~14. Business Transformation Program and Restructuring

Business Transformation Program

During the first quarter of 2019, the Company initiated a comprehensive operational review to validate its long-term growth and margin targets and to refine its execution plans, which culminated in launching the Business Transformation Program ("Transformation Program") in May 2019. The Transformation Program is structured in multiple phases and is focused on specific areas of opportunity including strategic sourcing, manufacturing facility workflow redesign, distribution and administrative process efficiencies and optimizing the Company's global brand platforms. The Company currently expects the Transformation Program to extend through 2021, however, the business disruption resulting from the global COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty around the timing and extent of its impacts may extend the timing and alter the execution costs and related savings the Company expects from this program. For the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019,~~ the Transformation Program costs consist primarily of fees for consulting services.

The classification of the Company's Transformation Program expenses are as follows:

~~17.~~16. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company presents earnings or (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis. Basic earnings or (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings or (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share includes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units, using the treasury stock method. Performance share units, which are considered contingently issuable, are considered dilutive when the related performance ~~criteria~~criterion has been met.

As the Company reported net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2021, basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated as outlined above. As the Company reported a net ~~loss~~loss for the ~~nine months~~three month period ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2020, basic loss per share is the same as diluted loss per share as the inclusion of potential shares of common stock would be antidilutive. ~~As the Company reported net earnings for~~

In addition, certain performance share units whose conditions were not met at the end of the respective reporting periods have also been excluded from the computation of earnings per share.

~~The following table summarizes the total number of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the Company's outstanding stock-based compensation awards.~~ As a result of the Company's net loss for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2020, all of the potentially issuable common stock was excluded from the diluted per share calculation because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive, even though the exercise price could be less than the average market price of the common shares.

As of ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2020, ~~potentially issuable~~the total number of shares of common stock ~~consisted of~~issuable pursuant to the ~~following:~~Company's outstanding stock-based compensation awards is as follows:

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, there were 1.2 million and 1.4 million securities, respectively, excluded from the computation of earnings per share because the effect of including such securities would have been antidilutive. In addition, certain performance share units whose conditions were not met at the end of the respective reporting periods have also been excluded from the computation of earnings per share.

~~18.~~17. Business Segments

The Company identifies its geographic business segments using the "management approach," which designates the internal organization used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company's geographic business segments. Management organizes and manages the business based on 3 geographic business segments: the Americas, EMEA and APAC. The accounting policies of the Company's geographic business segments are the same as those described in Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies."

The Company evaluates segment performance based on an "Adjusted Operating EBITDA" metric. Adjusted Operating EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net earnings before interest expense, income taxes, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization expense plus certain other items such as loss from impairment of assets, gain or loss from disposal of assets, restructuring activities, separation expense, loss on modification or extinguishment of debt, acquisition-related transaction and integration costs, Transformation Program expense and certain other items. In addition, certain corporate-level expenses and eliminations are not allocated to the segments. These unallocated expenses include corporate overhead, stock-based compensation expense and certain other non-operating expenses. The Company's presentation of Adjusted Operating EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures used by other ~~companies.~~

~~During~~companies and are not necessarily indicative of the first quarter of 2020, the Company revised the allocation of certain of its functional expenses between the corporate-level and the geographic business segments.

~~19.~~18. Subsidiary Guarantors and Senior Notes

The following tables present consolidating financial information for (a) Welbilt ("Parent"); (b) the guarantors of the Senior Notes, which include substantially all of the domestic, 100% owned subsidiaries of Welbilt ("Guarantor Subsidiaries"); and (c) the wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries of Welbilt, which do not guarantee the Senior Notes ("Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries"). The information includes elimination entries necessary to consolidate the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The principal elimination entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries, equity and intercompany balances and transactions. Separate financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented because as guarantors, these subsidiaries are fully and unconditionally, jointly and severally liable under the guarantees, except for normal and customary release provisions.

As disclosed in Note 18, "Business Segments," the Company revised the allocation of certain of its functional expenses between the corporate-level and the geographic business segments during the first quarter of 2020. The impacts of the revised allocation predominantly impact the Parent and Guarantor Subsidiaries financial information reflected in the tables below. The prior period has been recast to conform to the current period presentation. These changes did not impact the Company's previously reported consolidated financial results.

The following is a summary of factors that impacted our operating results and liquidity during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Impact of COVID-19 ~~Impact~~Pandemic on ~~Our~~our Business

~~In March 2020,~~The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in governments around the ~~World Health Organization declared~~world implementing stringent measures to help control the ~~outbreak~~spread of ~~COVID-19~~the virus, including quarantines, “shelter in place” and “stay at home” orders, curfews, travel restrictions, border closures, limitations on public gatherings, social distancing measures and mandated business limitations and closures. These measures resulted in a disruption in the foodservice industry including substantial restaurant closures, and, as a pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the United States and the world. The pandemic, along with the measures implemented by governmental authorities and other third-parties in response, has caused disruptionresult, in commercial foodservice equipment markets across the geographies in which we operate.

The exact timing and pace of the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic ~~has decreased demand for commercial foodservice equipment and aftermarket parts and the related economic disruption has continued to negatively impact our results~~is indeterminable, as certain geographic markets have reopened, some of ~~operations, financial position and cash flows during the third quarter~~which have since experienced a resurgence of ~~fiscal 2020 compared to the same period~~COVID-19 cases, including new strains of the ~~prior year. We continue to proactively monitor the impacts~~virus, while others, particularly international markets, remain closed or are enforcing extended public health measures. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is fluid and ~~while we are encouraged by recent developments surrounding a phased reopening~~continues to evolve, and the speed of recovery for the ~~economy in North America~~commercial foodservice equipment industry also remains uncertain. In order to protect the interests of our stakeholders and ~~Asia, we remain cautious due to a "potential resurgence"~~ensure the viability of ~~the virus, as it has recently been reported in Europe. We believe~~ our ~~go-to-market approach has and will continue to enable us to serve our customers and our long-standing relationships have positioned us to capitalize on emerging opportunities.~~

Because the COVID-19 pandemic is unprecedented, its severity, duration and future economic consequences are difficult to forecast. Although we cannot predict its future impact on our Company with any certainty, we anticipate that demand will continue to be negatively impacted well into 2021 and beyond.

~~In response to the decreased customer demand for our products and services,~~business, we have taken numerous actions during these disruptions in order to protect our employees, customers, suppliers and ~~shareholders throughout the second and third quarters of 2020,~~stockholders including:

•implementing health and safety measures, ~~to protect our employees in our manufacturing plants, distribution centers and offices,~~

•reviewing operating costs, adjusting budgets and reducing discretionary spending,

•~~working with our customers to balance requests for extended payment terms and deferral of payments to vendors,~~

•reducing hiring activities, ~~and~~ adjusting compensation ~~programs,~~

•~~streamlining staffing requirements~~and benefits and furloughing employees consistent with reductions in product demand and manufacturing levels,

•adjusting the operating schedules of our manufacturing plants based on governmental requirements, health, safety and demand factors,

•canceling non-essential travel plans,

•~~cancellation of non-essential travel plans to promote the safety and security of our employees while complying with various government mandates,~~

•~~engaging in work-from-home arrangements and social-distancing initiatives to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19, based on the multiple standards published to date,~~

•~~the evaluation of~~evaluating our supply chain, determining critical raw material requirements and identifying additional suppliers beyond our first-tier suppliers,

•~~reviewing~~amending covenants governing our debt agreements to maintain compliance, and ~~updating cybersecurity protocols to protect and maintain our operations, and~~

•obtaining government assistance, where applicable. During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we met the requirements in certain jurisdictions to receive a total of ~~$11.8~~$1.8 million of government assistance in the form of cash, cost abatements and retention credits, with ~~$2.5~~$1.9 million of the total government assistance ~~yet to be~~ received ~~and recorded~~recorded as a receivable at ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021.

~~The~~Our Company's ~~third~~first quarter ~~2020~~2021 net sales, ~~gross margins~~earnings from operations and cash flows all improved ~~sequentially from~~ in comparison to the second quarter of 2020, which was the first full quarter of operations subsequent to the World Health Organization declaring the outbreak of COVID-19 as ~~the~~a global pandemic in March 2020. While the commercial foodservice industry has continued to gradually recover from the negative impacts of ~~COVID-19. The~~the COVID-19 pandemic, the extent of the ~~effect~~ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operational and financial performance will ~~depend~~depend significantly on future developments, including the duration, scope and severity of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain or mitigate its impact in each of the countries where we operate globally, the ~~development~~distribution of ~~treatments and~~COVID-19 vaccines, emergence of new strains of the virus, and the timing of the resumption of economic activity to pre-pandemic levels.During the first quarter of 2021, we began to see increases in the cost of specific commodities, components and parts purchased, including the impact of rising inflation rates and tariffs, compared to the first three months of fiscal 2020. We anticipate that the average cost of commodities, components and parts purchased, including the impact of rising inflation and tariffs, for the remainder of fiscal 2021 will be higher than the costs experienced during the comparable period of the year ended December 31, 2020.

We continue to proactively monitor the developments surrounding COVID-19 and may take additional actions based on the requirements and recommendations of governmental and health authorities around the world in an attempt to protect our stakeholders. We are currently unable to quantify with certainty the ultimate severity or duration of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

-39-

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") was enacted on March 27, 2020 and includes ~~many~~ measures intended to assist companies during the COVID-19 pandemic, including temporary changes to income and non-income-based tax laws, some of which ~~were~~had been enacted under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Act") in 2017. As a result of the Tax Act and the CARES Act, additional legislative and regulatory guidance has been and may continue to be issued, including final regulations that could impact our effective tax rate in future periods. ~~Certain provisions~~

The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 was enacted on March 11, 2021 and, among other things, includes a second extension of the payroll support program provided under the CARES Act, ~~provide benefits in our 2020 effective income tax rates as it relates to our net operating loss carryback and the increase in the allowable deductions~~which we will apply for ~~interest expense. As discussed above, we have also applied additional provisions of the CARES Act in payroll-related payment deferrals and credits and other benefits,~~ as applicable.

~~-45-~~

On April 17, 2020, we entered into Amendment No. 7 (the “Amendment”) to the 2016 Credit Agreement, to amend the financial covenants of the Revolving Credit Facility to prevent non-compliance with these financial covenants for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the commercial foodservice industry and the resulting decrease in demand for our products. See further details regarding the Amendment included in the following Liquidity and Capital Resources section of Management's Discussion and Analysis.

As of March 31, 2020, an impairment charge was recognized in the amount of $11.1 million, resulting from an interim impairment assessment in the EMEA region which determined that the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded their estimated fair value. The impairment charge was recorded as a component of "Loss from impairment and disposal of assets — net" in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

As of June 30, 2020, we performed the annual impairment testing for our reporting units, as well as its indefinite-lived intangible assets, and based on those results, no impairment was indicated. Although no reporting units failed the annual impairment testing, in our opinion, the indefinite-lived intangible assets in the EMEA region are at risk of impairment in the near term if there is a negative change in the long-term outlook for the EMEA region. The duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic or other industry or competitive changes could also result in future impairment charges to our goodwill and remaining indefinite-lived intangible assets. See further discussion included in Note 6. "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets - Net" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Strategic Objectives

While our strategic objectives are long-term and remain intact, the execution of the Merger Agreement with Middleby and the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic will impact the extent and timing of our execution of these objectives. As such, our strategic objectives continue to include achieving sustainable growth globally and increased profitability by leveraging our position as a leading commercial foodservice equipment provider, while selectively pursuing longer-term strategic ~~acquisitions and~~ partnerships, growing our customer base and expanding the frontiers of foodservice innovation, as well as attracting and developing industry-leading talent.

Our specific strategic objectives include:

•Achieve profitable growth: We intend to ~~grow~~grow sales organically with our best-in-class foodservice equipment ~~product~~ portfolio of products and an integrated kitchen ~~systems~~solution approach. While organic growth across all three of our regions is our first priority, we ~~will~~may selectively pursue strategic ~~acquisitions and~~ partnerships as our capital structure allows in the future. Our industry is fragmented, and we believe there is significant opportunity for consolidation through ~~acquisitions,~~ partnerships and other strategic relationships to drive growth.

•Business Transformation Program Update: We are continuing the execution of the Business Transformation Program ("Transformation Program") to maintain and increase productivity gains and material cost reductions. We are encouraged by our progress to date and are committed to completing the activities included within the scope of the Transformation Program by the end of 2021 as originally planned. We remain confident in our ability to achieve the $75.0 million of annualized savings when our sales and volume levels return to pre-pandemic levels.

Our Transformation Program is structured in multiple phases extending through 2021 and is focused on specific areas of opportunity including strategic sourcing, manufacturing facility workflow redesign, distribution and administrative process efficiencies and optimizing our global brand platforms. We expect to conclude the planned execution actions of the Transformation Program by the end of 2021 and anticipate incurring total consulting costs, restructuring charges, and other related transformation expenses of ~~$75~~$70.0 to ~~$85~~$75.0 million from the inception of the program through 2021. ~~The business disruption resulting from the global COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty around~~However, the timing of realizing the full savings will be delayed until sales and ~~extent of its impacts~~manufacturing volumes return to pre-COVID levels. We may ~~extend the execution period for this program and we will continue to~~ update our timing and cost estimates as the ~~Transformation Program evolves.~~circumstances surrounding the pandemic and the foodservice industry recovery evolve.

In connection with the ongoing execution of the Transformation Program, we incurred ~~$6.7 million and $20.9~~$2.2 million of consulting and other related Transformation Program costs for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021. We have also incurred ~~$1.8 million and $6.6~~$0.2 million of restructuring charges during the three months ended March 31, 2021, intended to reduce operating expenses as a result of the improved efficiencies gained from the execution of the Transformation ~~Program, resulting in~~Program. We have incurred total costs of ~~$65.2~~$69.8 million from the inception of the Transformation Program through ~~September 30, 2020. We expect to incur the remaining costs associated with the Transformation Program in 2020 with a lesser portion expected to extend into 2021. We expect to settle~~March 31, 2021 and have settled these costs primarily in cash. We intend to continuously evaluate the total investment in, and financial benefits of, the various initiatives associated with the Transformation Program. We remain encouraged by our progress to date and are committed to completing the activities included within the scope of the Transformation Program by the end of 2021 as originally planned. We remain confident in our ability to achieve the $75 million of annualized savings when our sales and volume levels return to pre-COVID levels.

•Create innovative products and solutions: To remain an industry leader and grow our reputation as an innovative company, we continuously develop dynamic product and system solutions for the entire kitchen. We leverage our suppliers and customers to actively address product competitiveness and life cycle extensions. We co-create innovation and refresh existing products with new, locally relevant food-inspiring technologies, while simultaneously finding new ways to integrate those technologies into global platforms in a cost-effective manner and create cohesive kitchen systems for our customers.

•Enhance customer satisfaction: We believe our broad product portfolio and the positioning of our industry-leading brands enables us to further grow the number of customers we serve and improve overall customer satisfaction as a trusted provider to the largest companies in the foodservice industry.

~~-46-~~

•Drive operational excellence: We are focused on productivity gains and cost reductions across our business and plan to continue to leverage our global footprint to drive greater efficiencies across our operations. We are executing these cost reduction initiatives through our Transformation Program, focused on specific areas of opportunity including strategic sourcing, manufacturing facility workflow redesign, distribution and administrative process efficiencies and optimizing our global brand platforms.

•Develop great people: We strive to make Welbilt an employer of choice in our industry. We believe that we demonstrate a strong commitment to our people by providing a diverse and inclusive culture and environment where employee input, efforts and achievements are recognized and valued.

~~Analysis of Net Sales~~

~~"Net sales" for our geographic business segments consisted of the following for the periods presented:~~

(in millions, except percentage data) Nine Months Ended September 30, Change
2020 2019 $ %
Americas $ 630.9 $ 929.2 $ (298.3) (32.1) %

Total net sales $ 833.4 $ 1,212.1 $ (378.7) (31.2) %

Net sales totaled $833.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, representing a decrease of $378.7 million, or 31.2%, compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease in net sales was primarily the result of decreased volumes largely due to a decrease in general market demand, decreased KitchenCare aftermarket sales, both of which were significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic on foodservice providers globally and the resulting decrease in demand for our products, and rollouts with large chain customers in the prior year which did not recur in 2020. This decrease was partially offset by increased net pricing and a reduction in costs associated with volume driven rebate programs. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 by $2.1 million, or 0.2%.

Net sales in the Americas segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $298.3 million, or 32.1%, as a result of lower third-party net sales of $263.4 million and a decrease in intersegment sales of $34.9 million. The decrease in third-party net sales was primarily driven by decreased volumes largely due to a decrease in general market demand, decreased KitchenCare aftermarket sales, both of which were significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic on foodservice providers and the resulting decrease in demand for our products, and rollouts with certain large chain customers in the prior year which did not recur in 2020. This decrease was partially offset by increased net pricing and a reduction in costs associated with volume driven rebate programs. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted third-party net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 by $1.5 million.

Net sales in the EMEA segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $91.8 million, or 30.5%, driven by lower third-party net sales of $78.6 million and a $13.2 million decrease in intersegment sales. The decrease in third-party net sales was primarily driven by rollouts with large chain customers in the prior year which did not recur in 2020 along with decreased volumes in the general market and decreased KitchenCare aftermarket sales, both of which were significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic on foodservice providers and the resulting decrease in demand for our products. Foreign currency translation positively impacted third-party net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 by $0.4 million.

~~-50-~~

Net sales in the APAC segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $37.8 million, or 21.1%, consisting of lower third-party net sales of $36.7 million partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in intersegment sales. The decrease in third-party net sales was primarily driven by decreased volumes in the general market and KitchenCare aftermarket sales, both of which were significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic on foodservice providers and the resulting decrease in demand for our products. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted third-party net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 by $1.0 million.

~~Analysis of Earnings from Operations~~

~~Gross profit~~

"Gross profit" for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 totaled $288.5 million, a decrease of $145.2 million, or 33.5%, compared to the same period of the prior year. This decrease was primarily driven by: (i) a $136.9 million unfavorable impact from a decline in product volumes, (ii) $25.8 million of unfavorable material and other manufacturing costs primarily driven by a reduction in fixed overhead absorption due to lower production volumes and temporary shutdowns of certain manufacturing plants during the current year, (iii) a $2.0 million negative foreign currency translation impact, and (iv) $1.6 million of higher depreciation costs. These unfavorable impacts were partially offset by a $21.3 million favorable impact from increased net pricing.

~~Selling, general and administrative expenses~~

"Selling, general and administrative expenses" for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 totaled $215.6 million, representing a decrease of $47.2 million, or 18.0%, compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease is primarily the result of: (i) $21.0 million lower employee-related and controllable travel costs inclusive of favorable adjustments of $5.4 million for governmental wage subsidies, (ii) $14.3 million of lower marketing and commission costs, (iii) $6.8 million of lower professional fees (inclusive of $5.1 million of lower third-party consulting costs incurred in connection with our Transformation Program), (iv) $2.6 million of lower expenses primarily associated with information technology spending, (v) $1.2 million of lower depreciation expense and (vi) $0.8 million positive foreign currency translation impact. A significant portion of the expense reductions was associated with our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including employee furlough activities and reduction in headcount, reduced travel and marketing spend and other related operational actions.

~~Restructuring and other expense (recovery)~~

"Restructuring and other expense (recovery) " for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $9.5 million, consisting of $5.9 million of severance and related costs and a $3.6 million loss contingency charge. The severance and related costs were associated with workforce reductions executed throughout 2020 in the Americas and Corporate regions and a limited management restructuring to reduce operating expenses as a result of the improved efficiencies gained from the execution of the Transformation Program, as well as actions initiated during the fourth quarter of 2019 in the EMEA and APAC regions. The loss contingency charge was associated with our voluntary review of certain errors in declarations to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection for customs duties, fees and interest owed for previously imported products. See Note 12, "Contingencies and Significant Estimates," for further information.

Restructuring and other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were $5.4 million as a result of broad-based restructuring actions which included personnel across all levels of our organization as well as executive management changes.

~~Loss from impairment and disposal of assets — net~~

"Loss from impairment and disposal of assets — net" for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $11.7 million and consisted primarily of an impairment charge of $11.1 million on trademark and trade names in our EMEA segment recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 2020. See Note 6, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets — Net," of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details.

~~Analysis of Adjusted Operating EBITDA~~

As described in Note 18, "Business Segments," in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, during the first quarter of 2020, we revised the allocation of certain of its functional expenses between the corporate-level and the geographic business segments. Management believes the revised allocation methodology better aligns the operating results of the geographic business segments with how management assesses performance and makes operating decisions. The prior period segment results and related disclosures have been recast to conform to the current period presentation. These changes did not impact the our previously reported consolidated financial results.

~~Adjusted Operating EBITDA for geographic segments consisted of the following for the periods presented:~~

(in millions, except percentage data) Nine Months Ended September 30, Change
2020 2019 $ %
Americas $ 105.8 $ 184.2 $ (78.4) (42.6) %
EMEA 29.6 55.1 (25.5) (46.3) %
APAC 22.3 26.5 (4.2) (15.8) %
Total Segment Adjusted Operating EBITDA 157.7 265.8 (108.1) (40.7) %
Less: Corporate and unallocated expenses (46.8) (50.8) 4.0 7.9 %
Total Adjusted Operating EBITDA $ 110.9 $ 215.0 $ (104.1) (48.4) %
Adjusted Operating EBITDA margin(1)
13.3 % 17.7 % (4.4) %

~~(1)~~ ~~Adjusted Operating EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing the dollar amount of Adjusted Operating EBITDA by net sales.~~

Adjusted Operating EBITDA in the Americas segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased by $78.4 million, or 42.6%. This decrease was primarily driven by: (i) $94.6 million of lower product volumes, (ii) $19.7 million of unfavorable material and other manufacturing costs primarily driven by a reduction in fixed overhead absorption due to reduced production volumes and temporary shutdowns of certain manufacturing plants and (iii) a $1.0 million unfavorable foreign currency translation impact. The impact of these decreases were partially offset by (i) a $15.5 million favorable impact from net pricing, (ii) $11.9 million of lower marketing and commissions costs and (iii) $8.8 million of lower employee-related and travel costs.

Adjusted Operating EBITDA in the EMEA segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased by $25.5 million, or 46.3%, primarily driven by: (i) $37.2 million of lower margin principally driven by lower product volumes. The impact of these decreases were partially offset by: (i) $5.9 million of favorable material and other manufacturing costs, (ii) $4.9 million of lower employee-related, travel and other controllable costs and (iii) $1.9 million of lower marketing and commission expenses.

Adjusted Operating EBITDA in the APAC segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased by $4.2 million, or 15.8%, primarily driven by a $8.7 million of decreased product volumes and a $0.3 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation. These decreases were partially offset by $3.2 million of lower employee-related and travel costs, $0.9 million of favorable material and other manufacturing costs and $0.7 million of lower research and development costs.

Corporate and unallocated expenses reflect certain corporate-level expenses which are not allocated to the geographic business segments and eliminations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, corporate and unallocated expenses decreased by $4.0 million, or 7.9%. This decrease was primarily driven by a decrease of $4.4 million lower employee-related, travel and other controllable costs.

~~Analysis of Non-Operating Income Statement Items~~

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, "Interest expense" was $58.5 million, a $12.4 million decrease as compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily driven by a decrease in weighted average interest rates as a result of the decrease in LIBOR during the period.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, "Other (income) expense — net" was an expense of $0.8 million, compared to an expense of $11.5 million for the same period of the prior year. The $10.7 million decrease is primarily the result of lower net foreign currency transaction losses combined with a $1.2 million pension settlement loss recognized in 2019 which did not recur in 2020.

~~-52-~~

~~Analysis of Income Taxes~~

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recorded a $9.2 million income tax benefit, reflecting a 25.0% effective tax rate, compared to a $16.6 million income tax provision, reflecting a 30.7% effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The change in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period of the prior year is primarily the result of changes in discrete tax items as a result of the CARES Act and our decrease in earnings and relative weighting of jurisdictional income and loss. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the income tax benefit includes net discrete expenses of $5.0 million primarily related to the provisions of the CARES Act, including changes allowing for net operating loss carryback and an increase in the allowable deduction limitation of interest expense, along with the changes in uncertain tax positions, compared to $0.7 million of discrete expenses related to stock-based compensation and foreign tax adjustments for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview of Factors Affecting our Liquidity

We manage cash centrally, generally reinvest net earnings locally and meet our working capital requirements from cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and capacity under our existing credit facilities. As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, our total liquidity was ~~$332.9~~$353.7 million, consisting of ~~$122.9~~$140.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and ~~$210.0~~$213.4 million available for additional borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility ("Revolving Credit Facility"), to the extent our compliance with financial covenants permits such ~~borrowings. This compares~~borrowings, compared to ~~our~~total liquidity of ~~$298.3 million as of June 30, 2020, $299.5 million as of March 31, 2020 and $384.8~~$375.0 million as of December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. Our ~~annual~~ liquidity ~~trend~~ generally decreases in the first quarter and increases in the remaining quarters of the year driven by our earnings cycle as well as the timing of large cash payments in the first quarter such as annual rebates, incentive compensation and the build-up of inventory in advance of the historically higher sales period in the spring and early summer months. ~~This general trend has been disrupted during the second and third quarters of the current year as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.~~

As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, approximately ~~86%~~90% of our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were held outside of the U.S. The majority of the cash generated in the U.S. is used to fund current and expected future working capital requirements and to fund debt service obligations. We maintain significant operations outside of the U.S., and as a result, a significant portion of our cash is denominated in foreign currencies. We manage our worldwide cash requirements by reviewing available funds among our subsidiaries through which we conduct our business and the cost effectiveness with which those funds can be accessed. Where local restrictions prevent an efficient intercompany transfer of funds, our intent is to ~~keep~~maintain cash balances outside of the U.S. and to meet our liquidity needs through ongoing cash flows, external borrowings, or both.

We estimate that our capital expenditures will be between ~~$22~~$33.0 million and ~~$26~~$37.0 million for the year ending December 31, ~~2020, which~~2021. The amount of actual capital expenditures may be impacted by general economic, financial or operational changes, including the future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operating results, and competitive, legislative and regulatory factors, among other considerations. Our ability to satisfy our cash requirements depends on our ongoing ability to generate and, if necessary, raise cash. In response to the global COVID-19 pandemic throughout 2020 and the first quarter of 2021, we ~~have~~ actioned contingency plans for our operations and ~~taken~~took what we believe to be appropriate steps to reduce operating expenses and capital spending, ~~as necessary,~~ including reductions in the size of our workforce and temporary employee furloughs. Additionally, in April 2020, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the commercial foodservice industry and the resulting decrease in demand for our products, we executed an amendment on our 2016 Credit Agreement to amend the financial covenants of the Revolving Credit Facility. We ~~continue to~~ expect that our future cash generated from operations, together with our capacity under our existing senior secured revolving credit facility and our access to capital markets, will provide adequate resources to meet our working capital needs and cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Our access to, and the availability of, financing on acceptable terms in the future ~~will~~may be affected by many factors including the overall liquidity in the financial and capital markets, the state of the economy, the closing of the Merger Agreement with Middleby and our credit rating. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which has continued to cause ~~disruption~~volatility in the capital markets, could also ~~make~~impact our ability to pursue additional financing ~~more difficult and costly.~~opportunities in the future. Moreover, we are unable to quantify the ultimate severity or duration of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operational and financial performance, which could have an adverse impact on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position, potentially resulting in a default or an acceleration of indebtedness, and could otherwise negatively impact our liquidity and ability to make additional borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Operating Activities

Cash used in operating activities for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 was ~~$26.9~~$16.4 million, ~~and consisted~~consisting primarily of ~~a net loss of $27.6~~$23.7 million a use of ~~$37.9~~cash related to an increase in inventory, $12.8 million use of cash for rebate payments to customers, a $10.5 million use of cash related to a ~~current income tax~~net increase in accounts receivable, ~~primarily associated with CARES Act net operating loss carryback provisions, $19.2~~$1.3 million ~~and $9.9 million~~use of cash ~~used~~ for ~~rebate payments and interest expense, respectively, and $8.8~~the settlement of restructuring activities, a $0.9 million net use of cash ~~used~~for professional fees and a change in ~~connection with settlement~~deferred income taxes of ~~previously actioned restructuring activities. We also had~~$0.2 million. These outflows were partially offset by net income of $7.9 million, adjusted for non-cash charges of $20.4 million for depreciation and amortization expense, amortization of debt issuance costs and stock-based compensation. Additionally, there were net cash ~~outflows~~inflows of ~~$13.6~~$4.6 million associated with the timing of other current and long-term liabilities, other assets and trade accounts ~~payable~~payable.

Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $72.5 million, consisting primarily of a net loss of $15.1 million and ~~$5.5~~a use of cash of $104.6 million ~~due~~related to ~~higher inventory.~~the timing of accounts receivables, inventories, other assets and other current and long-term liabilities. These outflows were partially offset by a cash inflow of ~~$21.9~~$11.7 million resulting from ~~a net decrease~~an increase in trade accounts ~~receivable and $52.5 million in~~payable, non-cash charges of $17.3 million for depreciation and amortization expense, ~~stock-based compensation and~~ amortization of debt issuance costs and stock-based compensation, an ~~$11.1~~$11.2 million non-cash impairment charge on trademarks and tradenames in the EMEA segment and a ~~change~~non-cash inflow of $7.0 million for changes in deferred income ~~taxes of $10.0 million.~~taxes.

Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $320.5 million. The use of cash in operating activities was driven by a usage of $371.1 million resulting from the timing of collections on accounts receivable combined with the termination of our accounts receivable securitization program and a $37.9 million use of cash due to a reduction in trade accounts payable. This combined use of cash was partially offset by net earnings of $37.5 million, $28.8 million in non-cash amortization of intangible assets and $16.4 million of non-cash depreciation expense.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities of ~~$20.0~~$4.7 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 was for capital expenditures.

Cash used in investing activities of $9.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 consisted of capital expenditures of ~~$15.9~~$5.6 million and $3.9 million of payments, net of interest received, made in connection with the maturity of our cross-currency swap in March 2020.

Cash provided by investing activities of $296.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 consisted primarily of $280.7 million of cash receipts on beneficial interests in sold receivables and $32.0 million of proceeds received from the maturity of a short-term investment. These cash inflows were partially offset by capital expenditures of $17.4 million.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 of $37.1 million consisted primarily of $36.7 million of net borrowings on long-term debt and finance leases.

Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 of ~~$39.6~~$105.1 million consisted primarily of net borrowings on long-term debt and finance leases of ~~$41.3 million partially offset by $2.1 million of capitalized costs incurred in connection with the April 2020 amendment of our 2016 Credit Facility.~~

Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 of $72.8 million consisted primarily of net borrowings on long-term debt and finance leases of $87.8 million, partially offset by repayments on short-term borrowings of $15.0$104.7 million.

Financing Resources

Our primary financing resources ~~have historically consisted~~consist of our 2016 Credit Agreement and our 9.50% Senior Notes due 2024. Collectively, these arrangements represent the majority of our financing resources, which combined with cash generated by our business operations, are used to meet our financial obligations and liquidity requirements. The general terms of our financing arrangements as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 are set forth below.

~~-54-~~

2016 Credit Agreement

Our 2016 Credit Agreement provides for a $1,300.0 million Senior Secured Credit Facility consisting of (i) a senior secured Term Loan B Facility for $900.0 million and (ii) ~~the~~a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility with aggregate commitments of $400.0 million. OnThe maturities of the Term Loan B Facility and Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility are October 2025 and October 2023, respectively.

In April ~~17,~~of 2020, we entered into Amendment No. 7 (the “Amendment”) to the 2016 Credit Agreement, to amend the financial covenants of the Revolving Credit Facility. The terms of the Amendment, among others as set forth in the Amendment, (i) suspend the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio covenants, in each case, as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement, for four fiscal quarters until March 31, 2021 ("Suspension Period") and (ii) temporarily replace the suspended covenants with a Minimum Consolidated EBITDA covenant and a Maximum Capital Expenditure covenant, each computed on a trailing four quarters basis and measured quarterly, and a Minimum Liquidity covenant that is measured monthly, each as defined in the Amendment, throughout the Suspension Period, with the Minimum Liquidity covenant extending through June 30, 2021.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2021, the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio covenants will be reinstated at modified levels as compared to the covenants that were in effect beginning June 30, 2020 and will phase-in to the ~~pre-Amendment~~pre-amendment covenant levels by the fourth quarter of 2021.

As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, borrowings under the 2016 Credit Agreement bore interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, either (i) London ~~Interbank~~Inter-bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus an applicable margin of 2.50% for the Term Loan B Facility and 1.50% to 2.50%, for the Revolving Credit Facility (depending on ~~the Company's~~our Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio) or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin that is 1.00% less than the LIBOR-based applicable margin. The Amendment includes a quarterly fee applicable through the fourth quarter of 2021 in an amount equal to a per annum rate of 0.50% on the average outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Facility, payable on a quarterly basis.

Senior Notes

On February 18, 2016, we issued 9.50% Senior Notes due 2024 (the "Senior Notes") in an aggregate principal amount of $425.0 million, all of which was outstanding as of ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021. The Senior Notes were issued under an indenture with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee, and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis by each of our domestic restricted subsidiaries who are a borrower or guarantor under the 2016 Credit Agreement.

~~Revolving Loan Facility~~

Our short-term secured revolving loan facility provided for borrowings of up to $30.0 million. During the first quarter of 2019, we repaid the outstanding balance on this facility, which matured on April 18, 2019.

Covenant Compliance

As discussed above, in April 2020, we entered into an Amendment to the 2016 Credit Agreement, to amend the financial covenants of the Revolving Credit Facility for periods subsequent to March 31, 2020. The 2016 Credit Agreement and indenture governing the Senior ~~Secured Credit Facility~~Notes contains limitations on our ability to effect mergers and change of control events as well as certain other limitations, including limitations on: (i) the declaration and payment of dividends or other restricted payments, (ii) incurrence of additional indebtedness or issuing preferred stock, (iii) the creation or existence of certain liens, (iv) incurrence of restrictions on the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or other payments, (v) transactions with affiliates and (vi) sales of assets.

As discussed above, on April 17, 2020, we entered into an Amendment to the 2016 Credit Agreement, to amend the financial covenants of the Revolving Credit Facility for periods subsequent to March 31, 2020. We have estimated the negative impact of COVID-19 on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows; however, due to the inherent uncertainty of the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business, management's estimates of the achievement of its financial covenants may change in the future. We were in compliance with all affirmative and negative covenants, including any financial covenants, pertaining to our financing arrangements, in effect as of ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021. We continually monitor our compliance with the covenants in our Revolving Credit Facility, and in doing so have made estimates of the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. We believe we will remain in compliance with all such covenants for the next 12 months; however, due to the inherent uncertainty of the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, management's estimates of the achievement of our financial covenants may change in the future.

Leasing Arrangements

We lease various assets under leasing arrangements. The future estimated payments under these arrangements are disclosed in Note 18, "Leases," of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use certain non-GAAP financial measures discussed below to evaluate our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed as a supplement to our results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provides useful information to investors in evaluating the ongoing performance of our operating businesses, provides greater transparency into our results of operations and is consistent with how ~~management evaluates~~we evaluate our operating performance and liquidity. In addition, these non-GAAP measures address questions we routinely receive from analysts and investors and, in order to ensure that all investors have access to similar data, we make this data available to the public. None of the non-GAAP measures presented should be considered as an alternative to net earnings, earnings from operations, net cash used in operating activities, net sales or any other measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP measures have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The presentation of our non-GAAP financial measures may change from time to time, including as a result of changed business conditions, new accounting rules or otherwise. Further, our use of these terms may vary from the use of similarly-titled measures by other companies due to the potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation and differences due to items subject to interpretation.

Free Cash Flow

We refer to "Free Cash Flow", a non-GAAP measure, as our net cash provided by or used in operating activities less capital ~~expenditures plus cash receipts on our beneficial interest in sold receivables and the related impact of terminating our accounts receivable securitization program during the first quarter of 2019.~~expenditures. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors in measuring our ability to generate cash internally to fund our debt repayments, acquisitions, dividends and share repurchases, if any. Free Cash Flow reconciles to net cash used in operating activities included in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as follows:

Adjusted Operating EBITDA

In addition to analyzing our operating results on a U.S. GAAP basis, ~~management~~we also ~~reviews~~review our results on an “Adjusted Operating EBITDA” basis. Adjusted Operating EBITDA is defined as net earnings before interest expense, income taxes, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization expense plus certain other items such as loss from impairment of assets, gain or loss from disposal of assets, restructuring activities, loss on modification or extinguishment of debt, acquisition-related transaction and integration costs, Transformation Program expense and certain other ~~items. Management uses~~items, which are non-operating and unusual in nature. We use Adjusted Operating EBITDA as the basis on which we evaluate our financial performance and make resource allocations and other operating decisions. ~~Management considers~~We consider it important that investors review the same operating information used by ~~management.~~us.

Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings and Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings Per Share

We define Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings as net earnings (loss) before the impact of certain items, such as loss on modification or extinguishment of debt, loss from impairment of assets, gain or loss from disposal of assets, restructuring activities, Transformation Program expense, acquisition-related transaction and integration costs, certain other items, expenses associated with pension settlements, foreign currency transaction gain or loss and the tax effect of the aforementioned adjustments, as applicable. Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings Per Share for each period represents Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings while giving effect to all potentially dilutive shares of common stock that were outstanding during the period. We believe these measures are useful to investors in assessing the ongoing performance of our underlying businesses before the impact of certain items. The following table presents Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings and Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings Per Share reconciled to net loss and diluted net loss per share, respectively, presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP:

Organic Net Sales

We define "Organic net sales" as net sales before the impacts of acquisitions and foreign currency translations during the period. We believe the Organic net sales measure is useful to investors in assessing the ongoing performance of our underlying businesses. Organic net sales reconcile to net sales presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP as follows:

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

~~The Company's~~Our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk are incorporated by reference from Part II, Item 7A of ~~the Company's~~our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019. The Company's~~2020. Our market risk exposures have not materially changed since ~~its~~our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019~~2020 was filed.

The ~~recent~~ COVID-19 pandemic has caused disruption on a global scale in commercial foodservice equipment end markets across the geographies in which we operate. ~~Volatile~~Continued volatile market conditions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic ~~may result in significant changes in exchange rates in the future, and in particular a weakening of foreign currencies relative~~have continued to ~~the U.S. dollar may negatively affect~~impact our results of operations, financial position and cash ~~flows.~~flows throughout the three months ended March 31, 2021. Due to the inherent uncertainty of ~~such factors,~~the pace of the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, our estimates of the impact of ~~COVID-19~~the pandemic on our business may change based on future developments. The market risks may also change over time as business practices evolve and include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, commodity price risk and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To reduce these risks, we may selectively use derivative financial instruments and other proactive management techniques. Our corporate governance includes policies and procedures that place financial instruments under the direction of corporate finance and restrict all derivative transactions to those intended for hedging purposes only. The use of financial instruments for trading purposes or speculation is strictly prohibited.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021, due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting previously identified in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K ("2020 Form 10-K") which, as described below, continues to exist, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Previously Reported Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). We previously disclosed in our 2020 Form 10-K that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020 as a result of a material weakness that we identified. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Refer to Item 9A in our 2020 Form 10-K for a description of the material weakness and the initial remediation efforts undertaken by management.

Status of Remediation Efforts to Address Material Weakness

Management is committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment. In response to the identified material weakness, management, with the oversight of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, has taken actions towards the remediation of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as outlined below. We have implemented processes and controls to enhance our internal control over financial reporting with respect to the identified material weakness.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the following steps were taken to develop and implement enhanced control activities, which are incremental to the remediation efforts described in Item 9A in our 2020 Form 10-K, to remediate the deficiencies underlying the material weakness over certain aspects of one of our significant information technology ("IT") systems:

•Automated alerts for all changes to privileged user access are now monitored and reviewed by the Chief Information Officer or the IT Director to ensure such changes are valid, approved and completed in accordance with our policies and controls. These alerts are also monitored, reviewed and tracked by IT's service desk.

•The logging functionality of the IT system has been enabled to track any changes, including deletions, for all users with privileged access. All changes are reviewed on a monthly basis by the IT Director to ensure such changes are valid, approved and completed in accordance with our policies and controls.

•On a monthly basis, the IT Director or appropriate delegate performs a "user access review" for all users with privileged access to verify such access is valid, approved and completed in accordance with our policies and controls.

Management believes that these actions, once implemented and operating effectively, will remediate the material weakness discussed above. The material weakness will not be considered remediated, however, until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and

-52-

management has concluded, through testing, that these enhanced internal controls are operating effectively. Until the identified material weakness is remediated, we will not be able to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

~~There~~Except as disclosed above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting despite the fact that many of our employees are working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation to minimize any impact on our disclosure controls and procedures and their operating effectiveness.reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we become involved in various lawsuits, claims and proceedings arising out of, or incident to, our ordinary course of business, including lawsuits, claims, investigations or proceedings pertaining to product liability, patent infringement, environmental matters, commercial disputes, warranty claims, trade practices and employment matters. While we cannot predict the outcome of any lawsuit, claim, investigation or proceeding with certainty, we do not believe that the ultimate disposition of any pending matter is likely to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.

We intend to defend vigorously against all lawsuits, as they may arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is inherently uncertain, and we are unable to predict the outcome of these lawsuits and are unable to estimate the range of loss, if any, that could result from an unfavorable outcome. We also cannot provide any assurance that the ultimate resolution of any lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, prospects, results of operations or financial condition.

For additional information concerning contingencies and uncertainties, see Note ~~12,~~11, "Contingencies and Significant Estimates," of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

~~Except as set forth below or as disclosed immediately above under "Item 1. Legal Proceedings" (which disclosure is incorporated herein by reference), there~~Risks Related to the Proposed Transaction with The Middleby Corporation.

There are several risks and uncertainties related to the proposed transaction with Middleby Corporation ("Middleby") (the "Transaction"). Because of these risks and uncertainties, we have ~~been no material changes to~~supplemented the risk factors ~~described under the caption "Risk Factors"~~previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019.~~2020, to add the risk factors below.

The Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions to both our obligations and the obligations of Middleby to complete the Transaction, and if these conditions are not satisfied or waived, the Transaction may not be completed on a timely basis or at all.

The completion of the Transaction is subject to several of customary conditions to closing and there can be no assurance that such conditions to closing that remain outstanding will be satisfied or waived (to the extent permitted by law). The failure to timely satisfy the required conditions could delay the completion of the Transaction for a significant period of time or prevent the completion of the Transaction from occurring at all. These ~~risks, uncertainties and cautionary statements described therein, together~~closing conditions include, among others, (i) approval of the issuance of Middleby Common Stock in connection with the ~~other disclosures~~Transaction by Middleby’s stockholders, (ii) approval for listing of the Middleby Common Stock to be issued in ~~this Quarterly Report~~connection with the Transaction on NASDAQ, (iii) the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form ~~10-Q and~~S-4 with respect to the Middleby Common Stock to be issued in ~~our other public filings~~connection with the ~~Securities~~Transaction, (iv) approval and ~~Exchange Commission should be carefully considered. Any such risks~~adoption of the Merger Agreement by our stockholders, (v) expiration or termination of any waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and ~~uncertainties, as well as risks~~receipt of applicable approvals under certain foreign competition, antitrust or merger control laws, (vi) there being no law or order prohibiting consummation of the Transaction, (vii) subject to specified materiality standards, the accuracy of the representations and ~~uncertainties not currently known~~warranties of the parties, (viii) compliance by the parties in all material respects with their respective covenants, (ix) the absence of a material adverse effect with respect to us and Middleby, and (x) the delivery of an officer’s closing certificate by both parties.

Many of the conditions to completion of the Transaction are not within either our or Middleby’s control, and neither company can predict when, or if, these conditions will be satisfied. If any of these conditions are not satisfied or waived prior to April 20, 2022 (subject to extension if certain approvals have not been obtained by such date), it is possible that the Merger Agreement may be terminated. Although we and Middleby have agreed in the Merger Agreement to use reasonable best efforts to, subject to certain limitations, complete the Transaction as promptly as practicable, these and other conditions to the completion of the Transaction may fail to be satisfied. In addition, satisfying the conditions to and completion of the Transaction may take longer, and could cost more, than we and Middleby expect. We can not and Middleby cannot predict whether and when these other conditions will be satisfied. Furthermore, the requirements for obtaining the required clearances and approvals could delay the completion of the Transaction for a significant period of time or prevent them from occurring. Any delay in completing the Transaction may adversely affect the cost savings and other benefits that we ~~currently deem~~and Middleby expect to achieve if the Transaction and the integration of the companies’ respective businesses are not completed within the expected timeframe. There can be ~~immaterial,~~no assurance that all required regulatory approvals will be obtained or obtained prior to the termination date. The governmental agencies from which the parties have sought or are seeking certain approvals in connection with the Transaction have broad discretion in administering applicable governing regulations, and may impose requirements, limitations or costs, require divestitures or place restrictions on the conduct of the combined company’s business after the closing. Such requirements, limitations, costs, divestitures or restrictions could delay or prevent the consummation of the Transaction or have a material adverse effect on the combined company’s business and results of operations.

Failure to consummate the Transaction could negatively impact the share price and our future business and financial results.

If the Transaction is not consummated, our ongoing business may be adversely affected and, without realizing any of the potential benefits of having consummated the Transaction, we will be subject to several risks, including the following:

•We may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including negative impacts on our stock price;

•We may experience negative reactions from our customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, business partners and employees;

•We will be required to pay certain costs and expenses relating to the Transaction whether or not the Transaction is consummated, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor and printing fees;

•Matters relating to the Transaction (including integration planning) may require substantial management time and resources, which could otherwise have been devoted to other beneficial opportunities;

•The Merger Agreement restricts us, without Middleby’s consent and subject to certain exceptions, from taking certain specified actions until the Transaction occurs or the Merger Agreement terminates. These restrictions may prevent us from pursuing otherwise attractive business opportunities, entering into contracts, incurring capital expenditures to grow our business and making other changes to our business prior to completion of the Transaction or termination of the Merger Agreement;

•We could become subject to litigation related to any failure to consummate the Transaction or related to any enforcement proceeding commenced against us to perform our obligations under the Merger Agreement; and

•If the Merger Agreement is terminated in certain circumstances, we may be required to pay a termination fee of $110 million to Middleby.

If the Transaction is not consummated, these risks may materialize and may materially and adversely affect our business, operations, financial results and share price.

The Merger Agreement subjects us to restrictions on our business activities prior to the Effective Time.

The Merger Agreement subjects us to restrictions on our business activities prior to the Effective Time. The Merger Agreement obligates us to generally conduct our businesses in the ordinary course until the Effective Time and to use our reasonable best efforts to (i) preserve our assets and business organization, (ii) maintain our existing relationships and goodwill with material customers, suppliers, distributors, governmental authorities and business partners, and (iii) to keep available the services of our officers and key employees. These restrictions could prevent us from pursuing certain business opportunities that arise prior to the Effective Time.

Our stockholders will not be entitled to appraisal rights in the Transaction.

Under Delaware law, holders of our Common Stock do not have appraisal rights in connection with the Transaction.

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that limit our ability to pursue alternatives to the Transaction, may discourage certain other companies from making a favorable alternative transaction proposal and, in specified circumstances, could require us to pay the other party a termination fee.

Under the Merger Agreement, we are subject to certain restrictions on our ability to solicit alternative business combination proposals from third parties, engage in discussion or negotiations with respect to such proposals or provide information in connection with such proposals, subject to certain customary exceptions. We may terminate the Merger Agreement and enter into an agreement providing for a superior proposal only if specified conditions have been satisfied, and such a termination would result in us being required to pay Middleby a termination fee equal to $110 million. If the Merger Agreement is terminated and we determine to seek another business combination, we may not be able to negotiate a transaction with another party on terms comparable to, or better than, the terms of the Transaction. While we believe these provisions and agreements are reasonable and customary and are not preclusive of other offers, these provisions could discourage a third party that may have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of us from considering or proposing such acquisition, even if such third party were prepared to pay consideration with a higher value than the merger consideration. These provisions might also result in a potential third party acquirer proposing to pay a lower price than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the termination fee that may become payable in certain circumstances.

In specified circumstances, Middleby could terminate the Merger Agreement to accept an alternative proposal.

Middleby may in certain circumstances terminate the Merger Agreement to enter into an agreement providing for a superior proposal prior to obtaining approval of the proposed transaction from its shareholders. In such event, Middleby would be obligated to pay the us a termination fee equal to $160 million, but would have no further material obligation or liabilities to us relating to or arising out of the Merger Agreement or the Transaction. Such termination would deny us and our stockholders any benefits from the Transaction and could materially and negatively impact our share price.

Because the number of Middleby shares that our stockholders will be entitled to receive as a result of the Transaction will be based on a fixed exchange ratio, and the value of the Middleby shares has fluctuated and will continue to fluctuate, our stockholders cannot be sure of the value of the merger consideration they will receive.

Upon completion of the Transaction, our stockholders will be entitled to receive 0.1240 shares of Middleby common stock in exchange for each outstanding and issued share of our common stock. Because this exchange ratio is fixed and will only be adjusted in certain limited circumstances (including reclassifications, stock splits or combinations, exchanges or readjustments of shares, or stock dividends, recapitalization or similar transactions involving us or Middleby), any changes in the market value of shares of Middleby common stock or our common stock may affect the value that our stockholders will be entitled to receive upon completion of the Transaction. Share price changes may result from a variety of factors, including changes in the business, operations or prospects of Middleby or us, market assessments of the likelihood that the Transaction will be completed, the timing of the Transaction, regulatory considerations, general market and economic conditions and other factors.

While the Transaction is pending, we will be subject to business uncertainties which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Uncertainty about the effect of the Transaction on our employees, customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors and other business partners may have an adverse effect on us. These uncertainties may impair our ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the Transaction is consummated and for a period thereafter. If, despite our retention efforts, key employees depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with the combined company, the combined company’s (or, if the Transaction is not consummated, our stand alone company) business could be harmed and the ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the Transaction could be adversely affected.

Parties with which we do business may experience uncertainty associated with the Transaction, including with respect to current or future business relationships with us. Our business relationships may be subject to disruption as customers and suppliers may attempt to negotiate changes in existing business relationships or consider entering into business relationships with other parties. These disruptions could have an adverse effect on the businesses, financial condition, our results of operations or our prospects, including an adverse effect on the anticipated benefits of the Transaction. The risk and adverse effect of such disruptions could be exacerbated by a delay in completion of the Transaction or termination of the Merger Agreement. Additionally,

-56-

Completion of the Transaction may trigger change in control or other provisions in certain agreements to which we are a party.

Certain contracts entered into by us contain change in control, anti-assignment, or certain other provisions that may be triggered as a result of the Transaction. If the counterparties to these agreements do not consent to the Transaction or waive such provisions, the counterparties may have the ability to exercise certain rights (including termination rights), resulting in the combined company incurring liabilities as a consequence of breaching such agreements, or causing the combined company to lose the benefit of such agreements or incur costs in seeking replacement agreements. Even if we and Middleby are able to negotiate waivers, the counterparties may require a fee for such waivers or seek to renegotiate the agreements on terms less favorable to us.

If completed, the Transaction may not achieve the intended results.

We and Middleby entered into the Merger Agreement with the expectation that the Transaction will result in various benefits. Achieving the anticipated benefits of the transaction is subject to several uncertainties, including whether our business and Middleby's business can be integrated in an efficient and effective manner. Failure to achieve these anticipated benefits could result in increased costs or decreases in the amount of expected revenues and could adversely affect the combined company’s future business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.

We and Middleby may be unable to successfully integrate their respective operations. Failure to successfully integrate our business and Middleby's business in the expected timeframe may adversely affect the future results of the combined company, and, consequently, the value of the Middleby shares that our stockholders will receive as the merger consideration.

It is possible that the integration process could take longer than anticipated, could give rise to unanticipated costs and could result in the loss of valuable employees, the disruption of each of our and Middleby’s ongoing businesses, processes and systems or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures, practices, policies and compensation arrangements, any of which could adversely affect the combined company’s ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of the transaction. The combined company’s results of operations could also be adversely affected by any issues attributable to either company’s operations that arise or are based on events or actions that occur prior to the completion of the Transaction. We and Middleby may have difficulty addressing possible differences in corporate cultures and management philosophies. The integration process is subject to several uncertainties, and no assurance can be given that the anticipated benefits will be realized or, if realized, the timing of their realization.

After the Transaction, our stockholders will have a significantly lower ownership and voting interest in Middleby than they currently have in us and will exercise less influence over management.

Based on the number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of April 15, 2021, our former stockholders are expected to own Middleby shares representing approximately 24% of the combined company and Middleby stockholders are expected to own Middleby shares representing approximately 76% of the combined company. Our stockholders currently have the right to vote for their directors and on other matters affecting us. Following the completion of the Transaction, the Middleby shares that each of our former stockholders will receive as merger consideration will represent a percentage ownership of Middleby that is smaller than our stockholders’ percentage ownership of us before the completion of the Transaction. As a result of this reduced ownership percentage, our former stockholders will have less influence over the management and policies of Middleby than they currently have over our current management and policies.

The shares of Middleby common stock to be received by our stockholders upon the completion of the Transaction will have different rights from shares of our common stock.

Upon the completion of the Transaction, our stockholders will no longer be stockholders of Welbilt, Inc. Instead, our former stockholders will become Middleby stockholders and while their rights as Middleby stockholders will continue to be governed by the laws of the state of Delaware, their rights will be subject to and governed by the terms of the Middleby restated certificate of incorporation and the Middleby amended and restated bylaws. The terms of the Middleby restated certificate of incorporation and the Middleby amended and restated bylaws are in some respects different than the terms of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws, which currently govern the rights of our stockholders.

We and Middleby may be targets of legal proceedings that could result in substantial costs and may delay or prevent the Transaction from being completed.

Although, currently, we are not aware of any legal proceedings having been brought against us or Middleby in connection with the Transaction, securities class action lawsuits, derivative lawsuits and other legal proceedings are often brought against public companies that have entered into merger agreements. Even if such legal proceedings are without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, which could have a negative impact on our and Middleby’s respective liquidity and financial condition. Additionally, if a plaintiff is successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting completion of the Transaction, such injunction may delay or prevent the Transaction from being completed, or from being completed within the expected timeframe, which may adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operation.

We and Middleby will incur substantial transaction fees and costs in connection with the Transaction.

-57-

We and Middleby expect to incur several non-recurring transaction-related costs associated with completing the Transaction, combining the operations of the two organizations and achieving desired benefits of the Transaction. These fees and costs will be substantial. Non-recurring transaction costs include, but are not limited to, fees paid to legal, financial and accounting advisors, retention, severance, change in control and other integration-related costs, filing fees and printing costs. Additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the integration of our business and Middleby's business. There can be no assurance that the integration process will deliver all or substantially all of the benefits of the Transaction in the near term, the long term or at all. The costs described above and any unanticipated costs and expenses, many of which will be borne by Middleby or us even if the Transaction is not completed, could have an adverse effect on Middleby’s or our financial condition and operating results.

The ~~ongoing COVID-19 pandemic,~~market price of the Middleby common stock after the Transaction may be affected by factors different from those currently affecting the market price of our common stock.

Upon completion of the Transaction, our stockholders will no longer be stockholders of Welbilt, Inc. but will instead become holders of Middleby common stock. The businesses of Middleby differ from our businesses in important respects, and, accordingly, the ~~measures implemented by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic, have adversely impacted and will continue to adversely impact our business,~~ results of operations ~~cash flows and financial position.~~

~~The global economy generally, and~~of Middleby after the ~~foodservice industry in particular, have been disrupted and will almost certainly continue to be negatively impacted by~~Transaction, as well as the ~~COVID-19 pandemic and actions taken to control the spread~~market price of the virus, including quarantines, curfews, travel restrictions, social distancing measures, and mandated business limitations and closures. Many professional kitchens have closed to dine-in customers, remaining open only for takeout, outdoor dining, drive-thru, and/or delivery, or closed completely. These developments have impacted and are likely to continue to adversely impactMiddleby common stock, may be affected by factors different from those currently affecting our ~~business and~~ results of ~~operations~~operations. In addition, general fluctuations in ~~multiple ways, including, but not limited to, the following:~~

•We have modified our production schedules and experienced, and may continue to experience, a reduced demand for our products, which has negatively impacted and will likely continue to negatively impact our business and financial performance. If the global economic effects caused by the pandemic continue or increase, demand for our products may continue to decrease, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

•~~We have taken protective measures to modify our production environment to ensure the health and safety of our workers which has had an impact, and may continue to have an impact, on our productivity.~~

•The pandemic has caused us to modify our business practices (including employee travel, mandatory work-from-home policies and cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences), and we may take further actions that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, partners and suppliers. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the disease, and our ability to perform critical functions could be harmed.

•If a significant portion of our workforce or our suppliers’ workforce is affected by COVID-19 either directly or due to government closures or otherwise, associated work stoppages or facility closures could halt or delay production.

•Continued disruptions and uncertainties related to the pandemic for a sustained period could result in delays to the implementation of our Transformation Program or modifications to our strategic plans and hinder our ability to achieve our cost savings objectives.

•The financial impact of the pandemic could negatively impact our future compliance with financial covenants contained in agreements governing our indebtedness, potentially resulting in a default or an acceleration of indebtedness and could otherwise negatively impact our liquidity and ability to make additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

•~~Weaker economic conditions may result in a decrease in fair value of our tangible or intangible assets, which, in turn, could result in an impairment charge in our financial statements.~~

•~~We have experienced minor disruptions and may experience additional disruptions to our supply chain, resulting in difficulties and increased costs of acquiring raw materials.~~

•~~We could incur delays in shipments of our products, which could harm our customer relations and adversely impact our sales.~~

The extent of the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operational and financial performance will depend significantly on future developments, which cannot be predicted with certainty, including the duration, scope and severity of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain or mitigate its impact in each of the countries in which we operate, the development of treatments or vaccines, the availability of federal, state, local or non-U.S. funding programs, how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume, particularly with respect to the foodservice industry. We may continue to experience the effects of the pandemic even after it has waned, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could continue to be affected. The pandemic may also have the effect of manifesting or exacerbating many of the other risks previously disclosed in this "Risk Factors" section. Due to the inherent uncertainty of such factors, we cannot predict the extent or materiality of the ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our business with certainty or confidence at this time; however, itstock markets could have a material adverse ~~impact~~effect on the market for, or liquidity of, Middleby common stock, regardless of Middleby’s actual operating performance.

Our directors and executive officers have interests in the Transaction that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of our ~~results~~stockholders generally.

Our directors and executive officers have interests in the Transaction that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of ~~operations, cash flows~~our stockholders generally. The interests of our directors and ~~financial position compared~~executive officers include, among others, severance rights, vesting protections for equity awards in the event of termination of employment in connection with a change in control, rights to continuing indemnification and directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.
