NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - BUSINESS ACTIVITY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The quarterly operating results for Titan Machinery Inc. (the “Company”) are subject to fluctuation due to varying weather patterns, which may impact the timing and amount of equipment purchases, rentals, and after-sales parts and service purchases by the Company’s Agriculture, Construction and International customers. Therefore, operating results for the three-month period ended April 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2021. The information contained in the consolidated balance sheet as of January 31, 2020 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements for the Company for the fiscal year then ended. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2020 as filed with the SEC.
Nature of Business
The Company is engaged in the retail sale, service and rental of agricultural and construction machinery through its stores in the United States and Europe. The Company’s North American stores are located in Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin and Wyoming, and its European stores are located in Bulgaria, Germany, Romania, Serbia and Ukraine.
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak as a national emergency. The nature of COVID-19 led to worldwide shutdowns and halting of commercial and interpersonal activity as governments imposed regulations in efforts to control the spread of the pandemic, such as shelter-in-place orders and quarantines. The pandemic is a highly fluid and rapidly evolving situation, and we cannot anticipate with any certainty the length, scope, or severity of such restrictions in each of the markets that we operate. See Item 1A. Risk Factors for more information on possible impacts.
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the safety of our employees and customers has been and continues to be our top concern. At the onset of the pandemic we organized a COVID Task Force to implement safety protocols and to quickly respond to matters, in the event of a positive case at one of our locations.
Even though we are considered an essential business, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the company closed its U.S. stores to the public on March 23, 2020 but continued operations through social distancing means in all areas: equipment, parts, service and rental. Beginning May 4, 2020, we began fully reopening our stores to the public, following pandemic safety protocols applicable to the locations. Additionally, our International stores have also been following pandemic safety protocols applicable to each location.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, particularly related to realization of inventory, impairment of long-lived assets, collectability of receivables, and income taxes.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material accounts, transactions and profits between the consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In June 2016, the FASB issued a new standard, codified in ASC 326, that modifies how entities measure credit losses on most financial instruments. The new standard replaced the "incurred loss" model with an "expected credit loss" model that requires consideration of a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses over the lifetime of the asset. The guidance impacts the Company on its accounts receivable portfolio but specifically excluded receivables from operating lease arrangements and, therefore, the Company’s receivables from rental contracts were not impacted. The guidance also requires new disclosures to allow the users of the financial statements to understand the credit risk inherent in a portfolio and how management monitors the credit quality of the portfolio, management’s estimate of expected credit losses, and changes in the estimate of expected credit losses that have taken place during the reporting period.
The Company adopted the new guidance on February 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach and recognized an immaterial cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. The Company identified and updated existing internal controls and procedures to ensure compliance with the new guidance, but such modifications were not deemed to be material to the Company's overall system of internal control. While the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, it required changes to the Company's process of estimating expected credit losses on trade receivables.
Following is a summary of allowance for credit losses on trade and unbilled accounts receivable:
Balance at February 1, 2020 | Current Expected Credit Loss Provision | Write-offs Charged Against the Allowance | Credit Loss Recoveries Collected | F/X Impact | Balance at April 30, 2020 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(in thousands) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Agriculture | $ | 181 | $ | 14 | $ | 5 | $ | 40 | $ | — | $ | 230 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Construction | 1,016 | 113 | 71 | 4 | — | 1,062 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
International | 1,746 | 226 | 133 | 6 | (29) | 1,816 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
$ | 2,943 | $ | 353 | $ | 209 | $ | 50 | $ | (29) | $ | 3,108 |
In February 2018, the FASB issued guidance on the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract, codified in ASC 350-40. This guidance aligns the accounting for costs incurred to implement a cloud computing arrangement that is a service arrangement with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. This standard was adopted on February 1, 2020 and was applied using the prospective transition approach. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Unadopted Accounting Guidance
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU No. 2020-04”), which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to accounting guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease entities’ financial reporting burdens as the market transitions from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. ASU 2020-04 is effective upon issuance and can be applied through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating its contracts and hedging relationships that reference LIBOR to determine if the Company will adopt the new guidance.

Unbilled Receivables and Deferred Revenue
Unbilled receivables amounted to $17.1 million and $13.9 million as of April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020. The increase in unbilled receivables is primarily the result of a seasonal increase in the volume of our service transactions in which we recognize revenue as our work is performed and prior to customer invoicing.
Deferred revenue from contracts with customers amounted to $27.9 million and $39.5 million as of April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020. Our deferred revenue most often increases in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year due to a higher level of customer down payments or prepayments and longer time periods between customer payment and delivery of the equipment asset, and the related recognition of equipment revenue, prior to its seasonal use. During the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $29.7 million and $30.5 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of January 31, 2020 and January 31, 2019, respectively. No material amount of revenue was recognized during the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019 from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods.
The Company has elected as a practical expedient to not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of service of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed. The contracts for which the practical expedient has been applied include (i) equipment revenue transactions, which do not have a stated contractual term, but are short-term in nature, and (ii) service revenue transactions, which also do not have a stated contractual term but are generally completed within 30 days and for such contracts we recognize revenue over time at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services completed to date.
NOTE 4 - RECEIVABLES
The Company provides an allowance for expected credit losses on its nonrental receivables in accordance with the guidance in ASU 2016-13. To measure the expected credit losses, receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics as shown in the table below.
Trade and unbilled receivables from contracts with customers have credit risk and the allowance is determined by applying expected credit loss percentages to aging categories based on historical experience that are updated each quarter. The rates may also be adjusted to the extent future events are expected to differ from historical results. Given that the credit terms for these receivables are short-term, changes in credit loss percentages due to future events may not occur on a frequent basis. In addition, the allowance is adjusted based on information obtained by continued monitoring of individual customer credit.
Trade receivables from finance companies, other receivables due from manufacturers, and other receivables have not historically resulted in any credit losses to the Company. These receivables are short-term in nature and deemed to be of good credit quality and have no need for any allowance for expected credit losses. Management continually monitors these receivables and should information be obtained that identifies potential credit risk, an adjustment to the allowance would be made if deemed appropriate.
Trade and unbilled receivables from rental contracts are primarily in the US and are specifically excluded from the guidance in ASU 2016-13 in determining an allowance for expected losses. The Company does provide an allowance for these receivables based on historical experience and using credit information obtained from continued monitoring of customer accounts.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the long-lived asset (or asset group) may not be recoverable. During the three months ended April 30, 2020, the Company determined that a current period operating loss combined with historical losses of certain store locations indicated that the long-lived asset group of the store locations may not be recoverable. The Company performed an impairment assessment of this asset group and as a result recognized an impairment charge of $0.2 million within its Construction segment.
In March 2019, the Company completed an assessment of its Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") application and concluded that the Company would begin the process to prepare for conversion to a new ERP application. The Company currently anticipates a pilot store to be on the new ERP system in the second quarter of the current fiscal year and all stores to be on the new ERP application in the first half of the fiscal year ending January 31, 2022. We have prospectively adjusted the useful life of our current ERP application such that it will be fully amortized upon its estimated replacement date. The net book value of the ERP asset of $1.8 million as of April 30, 2020 will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining period of use.
NOTE 7 - FLOORPLAN PAYABLE/LINES OF CREDIT
On April 3, 2020, the Company entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with a group of banks (the "Bank Syndicate"), that amended and restated the Company's prior $200.0 million credit facility, dated October 28, 2015. The Bank Syndicate provides for a secured credit facility in an amount up to $250.0 million, consisting of a $185.0 million floorplan facility (the "Floorplan Loan") and a $65.0 million operating line (the "Revolver Loan"), and changed the interest rates as compared to the prior credit facility, amongst other things. The amounts available under the Bank Syndicate are subject to base calculations and reduced by outstanding standby letters of credit and certain reserves. The Bank Syndicate has a variable interest rate on outstanding balances, has a 0.25% non-usage fee on the average monthly unused amount (replacing the previous non-usage fee of 0.25% to 0.375%), and requires monthly payments of accrued interest. The Company elects at the time of any advance to choose a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan. The LIBOR Rate is based upon one month, two month, or three month LIBOR, as chosen by the Company, but in no event shall the LIBOR Rate be less than 0.50%. The Base Rate is the greater of (a) the prime rate of interest announced, from time to time, by Bank of America; (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (c) one month LIBOR plus 1%, but in no event shall the Base Rate be less than zero. The applicable margin rate is determined based on excess availability under the Bank Syndicate and ranges from 0.5% to 1.0% for Base Rate Loans and 1.5% to 2.0% for LIBOR Rate Loans. The new applicable margins under the Bank Syndicate are up to 0.5% less than the existing margins under the prior credit facility.
The Bank Syndicate does not obligate the Company to maintain financial covenants, except in the event that excess availability (each as defined in the Bank Syndicate) is less than 15% of the lower of the borrowing base or the size of the maximum credit line, at which point the Company is required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) of at least 1.10:1.00. The Bank Syndicate includes various restrictions on the Company and its subsidiaries’ activities, including, under certain conditions, limitations on the Company’s ability to make certain cash payments including cash dividends and stock repurchases, issuance of equity instruments, acquisitions and divestitures, and entering into new indebtedness transactions. The Bank Syndicate matures on April 3, 2025.
The Floorplan Loan under the Bank Syndicate is used to finance equipment inventory purchases. Amounts outstanding are recorded as floorplan payable, within current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, as the Company intends to repay amounts borrowed within one year.
The Revolver Loan under the Bank Syndicate is used to finance rental fleet equipment and for general working capital requirements of the Company. Amounts outstanding are recorded as long-term debt, within long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, as the Company does not have the intention or obligation to repay amounts borrowed within one year.
As of April 30, 2020, the Company had floorplan lines of credit totaling $762.0 million, which is primarily comprised of three significant floorplan lines of credit: (i) a $450.0 million credit facility with CNH Industrial, (ii) a $185.0 million line of credit with the Bank Syndicate, and (iii) a $60.0 million credit facility with DLL Finance LLC.

As of April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020, the Company's outstanding balances of floorplan payables and lines of credit consisted of the following:

As of April 30, 2020, foreign floorplan payables carried various interest rates primarily ranging from 0.98% to 6.33%, compared to a range of 0.86% to 7.66% as of January 31, 2020. As of April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020, $201.9 million and $205.2 million, respectively, of outstanding floorplan payable were non-interest bearing. As of April 30, 2020, the Company had a compensating balance arrangement under one of its foreign floorplan credit facilities, which requires a minimum cash deposit to be maintained with the lender in the amount of $5.0 million for the term of the credit facility.

NOTE 11 - DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company holds derivative instruments for the purpose of minimizing exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates to which the Company is exposed in the normal course of its operations.
The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the effects of fluctuations in exchange rates on outstanding intercompany loans. The Company does not formally designate and document such derivative instruments as hedging instruments; however, the instruments are an effective economic hedge of the underlying foreign currency exposure. Both the gain or loss on the derivative instrument and the offsetting gain or loss on the underlying intercompany loan are recognized in earnings immediately, thereby eliminating or reducing the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on net income. The Company's foreign currency forward contracts generally have three-month maturities, maturing on the last day of each fiscal quarter. No foreign currency contracts were outstanding as of January 31, 2020. The notional value of outstanding foreign currency contracts as of April 30, 2020 was $13.0 million.
As of April 30, 2020, the fair value of the Company's outstanding derivative instruments was not material. Derivative instruments recognized as assets are recorded in prepaid expenses and other in the consolidated balance sheets, and derivative instruments recognized as liabilities are recorded in accrued expenses and other in the consolidated balance sheets.
The following table sets forth the gains and losses recognized in income from the Company’s derivative instruments for the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019. Gains and losses are recognized in interest income and other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations:

NOTE 13 - LEASES
As Lessee
The Company, as lessee, leases certain of its dealership locations, office space, equipment and vehicles under operating and financing classified leasing arrangements. The Company has elected to not record leases with a lease term at commencement of 12 months or less on the consolidated balance sheet; such leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Many real estate lease agreements require the Company to pay the real estate taxes on the properties during the lease term and require that the Company maintain property insurance on each of the leased premises. Such payments are deemed to be variable lease payments as the amounts may change during the term of the lease. Certain leases include renewal options that can extend the lease term for periods of one to ten years. Most real estate leases grant the Company a right of first refusal or other options to purchase the real estate, generally at fair market value, either during the lease term or at its conclusion. In most cases, the Company has not included these renewal and purchase options within the measurement of the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Most often the Company cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in the lease and thus applies its incremental borrowing rate to capitalize the right-of-use asset and lease liability. The Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate by incorporating considerations of lease term, asset class and lease currency and geographical market. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material non-lease components, residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
The Company subleases a small number of real estate assets to third-parties, primarily dealership locations for which it has ceased operations. All sublease arrangements are classified as operating leases.

As Lessor
The Company rents equipment to customers, primarily in the Construction segment, on a short-term basis. Our rental arrangements generally do not include minimum, noncancellable periods as the lessee is entitled to cancel the arrangement at any time. Most often, our rental arrangements extend for periods ranging from a few days to a few months. We maintain a fleet of dedicated rental assets within our Construction segment and, within all segments, may also provide short-term rentals of certain equipment inventory assets. Certain rental arrangements may include rent-to-purchase options whereby customers are given a period of time to exercise an option to purchase the related equipment at an established price with any rental payments paid applied to reduce the purchase price.
All of the Company's leasing arrangements as lessor are classified as operating leases. Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the rental period. Rental revenue includes amounts charged for loss and damage insurance on rented equipment. In most cases, our rental arrangements include non-lease components, including delivery and pick-up services. The
17
Company accounts for these non-lease components separate from the rental arrangement and recognizes the revenue associated with these components when the service is performed. The Company has elected to exclude from rental revenue all sales, value added and other taxes collected from our customers concurrent with our rental activities. Rental billings most often occur on a monthly basis and may be billed in advance or in arrears, thus creating unbilled rental receivables or deferred rental revenue amounts. The Company manages the residual value risk of its rented assets by (i) monitoring the quality, aging and anticipated retail market value of our rental fleet assets to determine the optimal period to remove an asset from the rental fleet, (ii) maintaining the quality of our assets through on-site parts and service support and (iii) requiring physical damage insurance of our lessee customers. We primarily dispose of our rental assets through the sale of the asset by our retail sales force.
Revenue generated from leasing activities is disclosed, by segment, in Note 3. The following is the balance of our dedicated rental fleet assets of our Construction segment as of April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020:

NOTE 14 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
As of April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020, the fair value of the Company's foreign currency contracts, which are either assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, was not material. These foreign currency contracts were valued using a discounted cash flow analysis, an income approach, utilizing readily observable market data as inputs, which is classified as a Level 2 fair value measurement.
The Company also valued certain long-lived assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020 as part of its long-lived asset impairment testing. The estimated fair value of such assets as of April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020 was $0.4 million and $2.8 million, respectively. Fair value was estimated through an income approach incorporating both observable and unobservable inputs, and are deemed to be Level 3 fair value inputs. The most significant unobservable inputs include forecasted net cash generated from the use of the assets and the discount rate applied to such cash flows to arrive at a fair value estimate. In addition, in certain instances the Company estimated the fair value of long-lived assets to approximate zero as no future cash flows were assumed to be generated from the use of such assets and the expected value to be realized upon disposition was deemed to be nominal.
The Company also has financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets, including cash, receivables, payables and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximated their fair values as of April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020. Fair value of these financial instruments was estimated based on Level 2 fair value inputs.
NOTE 15 - INCOME TAXES
Our effective tax rate was 28.1% for the three months ended April 30, 2020 compared to an effective tax rate of 13.6% for the three months ended April 30, 2019. Our effective tax rate differs from the domestic federal statutory tax rate due to the mix of domestic and foreign income or losses and the impact of the recognition of valuation allowances on our foreign deferred tax assets, including net operating losses.
NOTE 16 - BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
On January 1, 2019, the Company, through its German subsidiary, acquired certain assets of ESB Agrartechnik GmbH ("ESB"). ESB is a full-service agriculture equipment dealership in Eastern Germany. Our acquisition of ESB further expanded our presence in the German market. The total consideration transferred for the acquired business was $3.0 million paid in cash. This acquisition was recognized in the fiscal year ended January 31, 2020 as the acquisition occurred within our International segment in which all entities maintain a calendar year reporting period.
On October 1, 2019, the Company acquired certain assets of Uglem-Ness Co. The acquired business consists of one Case IH agriculture equipment store in Northwood, North Dakota. The service area is contiguous to the Company's existing locations in Grand Forks and Casselton, North Dakota and Ada, Minnesota. The total consideration transferred for the acquired business was $10.9 million paid in cash, including the acquired real estate, which was finalized in January 2020 for $2.1 million.

In connection with the acquisition, the Company acquired from CNH Industrial and certain other manufacturers equipment and parts inventory previously owned by Uglem-Ness Co. Upon acquiring such inventories, the Company was offered floorplan financing by the manufacturer. In total, the Company acquired inventory and recognized a corresponding financing liability of $7.4 million. The recognition of these inventories and the associated financing liabilities are not included as part of the accounting for the business combination.
Purchase Price Allocation
Each of the above acquisitions has been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires the Company to estimate the acquisition date fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The accounting for all business combinations was complete as of January 31, 2020. The following table presents the aggregate purchase price allocations for all acquisitions completed as of January 31, 2020:

The recognition of goodwill in the above business combinations arose from the acquisition of an assembled workforce and anticipated synergies expected to be realized. For the business combinations occurring during the twelve months ended January 31, 2020, the Company recognized a customer relationship intangible asset of $0.2 million, a non-competition intangible asset of $0.1 million, and a distribution rights intangible asset of $1.6 million. The customer relationship and non-competition assets will be amortized over periods ranging from three to five years. The distribution rights assets are indefinite-lived intangible assets not subject to amortization. The Company estimated the fair value of the intangible assets using a multi-period excess earnings model, an income approach. Acquisition related costs were not material for fiscal year ended January 31, 2020, and have been expensed as incurred and recognized as operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
NOTE 17 - CONTINGENCIES
On October 11, 2017, the Romania Competition Council (“RCC”) initiated an administrative investigation of the Romanian Association of Manufacturers and Importers of Agricultural Machinery (“APIMAR”) and all its members, including Titan Machinery Romania. The RCC's investigation involves whether the APIMAR members engaged in anti-competitive practices in their sales of agricultural machinery not involving European Union ("EU") subvention funding programs, by referring to the published sales prices governing EU subvention funded transactions, which prices are mandatorily disclosed to and published by AFIR, a Romanian government agency that oversees the EU subvention funding programs in Romania. The investigation is in a preliminary stage and the Company is currently unable to predict its outcome or reasonably estimate any potential loss that may result from the investigation.
The Company is also engaged in other legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of business. Due to their nature, such legal proceedings involve inherent uncertainties, including but not limited to, court rulings, negotiations between
19
affected parties and governmental intervention. Based upon the information available to the Company and discussions with legal counsel, it is the Company's opinion that the outcome of these various legal actions and claims will not have a material impact on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows. These matters, however, are subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of any matter is not predictable with assurance.
NOTE 18 - SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has three reportable segments: Agriculture, Construction and International. Revenue between segments is immaterial. The Company retains various unallocated income/(expense) items and assets at the general corporate level, which the Company refers to as “Shared Resources” in the table below. Shared Resources assets primarily consist of cash and property and equipment.
Certain financial information for each of the Company’s business segments is set forth below.

NOTE 19 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 31, 2020, the Company entered into a definitive purchase agreement to acquire HorizonWest Inc., which owns a three store CaseIH agriculture dealership complex in Scottsbluff and Sidney, Nebraska and Torrington, Wyoming. In its most recent fiscal year, HorizonWest generated revenue of approximately $26 million. The Company closed on the acquisition on May 4, 2020. The total purchase price was $6.9 million, which does not include the $2.7 million of associated inventory that the Company concurrently purchased from CNH Industrial under standard terms. Due to the limited time since the date of the acquisition, it is impracticable for the Company to make certain business combination disclosures at this time as the Company is still gathering information that is necessary for the required business combination disclosures. The net assets acquired consist primarily of working capital and fixed assets.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report, and the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2020.
Overview
We own and operate a network of full service agricultural and construction equipment stores in the United States and Europe. Based upon information provided to us by CNH Industrial N.V. or its U.S. subsidiary CNH Industrial America, LLC, we are the largest retail dealer of Case IH Agriculture equipment in the world, the largest retail dealer of Case Construction equipment in North America and a major retail dealer of New Holland Agriculture and New Holland Construction equipment in the U.S. We operate our business through three reportable segments: Agriculture, Construction and International. Within each segment, we have four principal sources of revenue: new and used equipment sales, parts sales, service, and equipment rental and other activities.
Demand for agricultural equipment and, to a lesser extent, parts and service support, are impacted by agricultural commodity prices and net farm income. Based on U.S. Department of Agriculture publications, the most recent estimate of net farm income for calendar year 2019 indicated an approximate 11.0% increase as compared to calendar year 2018, and an approximate 3.3% increase in net farm income for calendar year 2020, as compared to calendar year 2019.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2021, our net income was $2.3 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to a fiscal 2020 first quarter loss of $0.4 million, or $0.02 per diluted share. Our adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.15 for the first quarter of fiscal 2021, compared to $0.02 for the first quarter of fiscal 2020. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below for a reconciliation of adjusted diluted earnings per share to diluted earnings per share, the most comparable GAAP financial measure. Significant factors impacting the quarterly comparisons were:
•Revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 was 11.5% higher than the first quarter of fiscal 2020. Increased revenue from equipment, parts and service was offset by slightly lower rental and other revenue. The higher revenue was driven by increased equipment, parts and service revenue in our Agriculture segment. Some of the increase in the Agriculture segment came from our Northwood location, which was purchased in October 2019.
•Gross profit margin in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 declined to 18.8%, compared to 19.4% for the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The decline in gross profit margin was primarily the result of lower equipment margins and a change in our revenue mix with more revenue generated by our equipment business than our higher margin parts and service businesses in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, as compared to the first quarter last year.
•Floorplan and other interest expense decreased a combined 15.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, as compared to the first quarter last year, primarily due the repayment in full of our senior convertible notes in the second quarter of fiscal 2020.
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Company
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak as a national emergency. The nature of COVID-19 led to worldwide shutdowns and halting of commercial and interpersonal activity as governments imposed regulations in efforts to control the spread of the pandemic, such as shelter-in-place orders and quarantines. The pandemic is a highly fluid and rapidly evolving situation, and we cannot anticipate with any certainty the length, scope, or severity of such restrictions in each of the markets that we operate. See Item 1A. Risk Factors for more information on possible impacts.
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the safety of our employees and customers has been and continues to be our top concern. At the onset of the pandemic we organized a COVID Task Force to implement safety protocols and to quickly respond to matters, in the event of a positive case at one of our locations.
Even though we are considered an essential business, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the company closed its U.S. stores to the public on March 23, 2020 but continued operations through social distancing means in all areas: equipment, parts, service and rental. Beginning May 4, 2020, we began fully reopening our stores to the public, following pandemic safety protocols applicable to the locations. Additionally, our International stores have also been following pandemic safety protocols applicable to each location.
21
We believe that each of our business segments will be impacted by the pandemic to varying degrees, although the actual impact will be subject to many variables and uncertainties which are currently unknown and outside of our control.
Agriculture
Overall, COVID-19 has created industry challenges such as lower agriculture commodity prices as demand deterioration and supply chain disruptions are affecting areas such as ethanol, livestock and international trade. We believe that the existing and anticipated lower commodity prices will reduce our equipment sales, but it is difficult to estimate the extent and timing of this impact given all the variables and uncertainties. We believe our parts and service business will be less impacted, as our customers will be experiencing similar levels of wear and tear on their equipment. Also offsetting some of the challenges in the agriculture industry, will be government support programs for our farm customers, such as the recently announced $16 billion Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP).
Construction
We believe all revenue categories of equipment, parts, service and rental will be impacted in this segment, with such effects continuing so long as pandemic related macroeconomic stress and uncertainties persist. Examples of such macroeconomic stress include: lower oil prices, higher unemployment, lower GDP, and reduced government spending on infrastructure projects. All of these factors we believe will lead to lower overall U.S. construction spending.
International
In addition to the industry challenges indicated for our Agriculture Segment, International is also being impacted by border shutdowns, timing of equipment shipments and more stringent in-country pandemic regulations. We believe all revenue categories in this segment will experience greater negative impacts than our Agriculture Segment because of these additional challenges along with the general lack of government support programs to our International farm customers.
Acquisitions
Fiscal 2020
On October 1, 2019, we acquired certain assets of Uglem-Ness Co., a single Case IH agriculture equipment store in Northwood, North Dakota. The acquisition continues our strategy of acquiring dealerships in agriculture markets contiguous to our current North American agriculture stores. The service area of Uglem-Ness is contiguous to our existing locations in Grand Forks and Casselton, North Dakota and Ada, Minnesota. The total consideration paid in the acquisition was $10.9 million, which the Company financed through available cash resources and capacity under our existing floorplan payable and other credit facilities. The Northwood, ND dealership is included within our Agriculture segment.
ERP Transition
The Company is in the process of converting to a new Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") application. The new ERP application is expected to provide data-driven and mobile-enabled sales and support tools to improve employee efficiency and deliver an enhanced customer experience. The Company currently anticipates a pilot store to be on the new ERP system in the second quarter of the current fiscal year and all stores to be on the new ERP application in the first half of the fiscal year ending January 31, 2022. We have prospectively adjusted the useful life of our current ERP application such that it will be fully amortized upon its estimated replacement date.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our critical accounting policies and estimates are included in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2020. Other than the adoption of the accounting standard for current expected credit loss and the standard for cloud computing described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no changes in our critical accounting policies since January 31, 2020.
Results of Operations
The results presented below include the operating results of any acquisition made during these periods as well as the operating results of any stores closed during these periods, up to the date of the store closure. The period-to-period comparisons included below are not necessarily indicative of future results. Segment information is provided later in the discussion and analysis of our results of operations.
Same-store sales for any period represent sales by stores that were part of the Company for the entire comparable period in the current and preceding fiscal years. We do not distinguish between relocated or recently expanded stores in this
22
same-store analysis. Closed stores are excluded from the same-store analysis. Stores that do not meet the criteria for same-store classification are described as excluded stores throughout the Results of Operations section in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Total Gross Profit Mix | 100.0 | % | 100.0 | % |
Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 increased 8.4% or $4.5 million, as compared to the same period last year. However, gross profit margin decreased to 18.8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2021, compared to 19.4% for the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in gross profit was due to increased revenues. The decrease in gross profit margins was primarily due to lower equipment margins and a change in revenue mix. We recognized lower equipment margins on our used Agriculture equipment in the current quarter as we accelerated efforts to sell this inventory. Revenue mix decreased our overall gross margin in two ways. First, equipment revenues comprised a larger portion of overall revenues than did our higher margin parts and service business; and second, our total equipment sales mix was more weighted to Agriculture, which generally experiences lower equipment margins than equipment sold in our Construction and International segments.
Our company-wide absorption rate — which is calculated by dividing our gross profit from sales of parts, service and rental fleet by our operating expenses, less commission expense on equipment sales, plus interest expense on floorplan payables and rental fleet debt — increased to 73.2% for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to 67.8% during the same period last year as the increase in gross profit from parts, service, and rental and other in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 more than offset the increase in operating expenses during the period.

Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 17.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 from 18.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of total revenue was due to the increase in total revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020, which positively affected our ability to leverage our fixed operating costs.

Floorplan interest expense increased in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020, primarily as a result of increased levels of interest-bearing inventory in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The decrease in other interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020, is primarily the result of our repayment in full of the outstanding balance of our senior convertible notes in May 2019. The decrease in interest income and other income (expense) was primarily due to foreign currency remeasurement losses in Ukraine, resulting from a devaluation of the Ukrainian hyrvnia in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below for the impact of these costs on non-GAAP Diluted EPS.

Agriculture
Agriculture segment revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 increased 25.9% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020. We experienced increases across our equipment, parts and service businesses. Equipment sales were supported by replacement demand, efforts to move used equipment, and delay of customer purchases from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 to the current quarter due to the late and difficult harvest conditions in parts of our footprint. Parts and service revenue continued to benefit from an aging customer fleet and challenging operating conditions for our customers. Same-store sales of our Agriculture segment increased 23.3% for the first quarter of fiscal 2021, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020. Additionally, our revenues were favorably impacted by the third quarter fiscal 2020 acquisition of Uglem-Ness.
Agriculture segment income before income taxes was $6.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $1.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The improvement in segment results were due to higher revenues, but were partially offset by increased operating expenses and floorplan interest expense.
Construction
Construction segment revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 decreased 15.0% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020, due to a same-store sales decrease and the sale of the Albuquerque, New Mexico store in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. All sources of revenue — equipment, parts, service and rental — declined for the segment’s first quarter of 2021, as compared to the prior year’s first quarter. The overall lower same-store sales are a result of decreased customer sentiment, lower oil prices, and a general slowdown in the economy due to COVID-19.
Our Construction segment loss before income taxes was $2.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $2.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in segment loss was due to the overall lower revenues, but was partially offset by decreases in operating expenses, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The dollar utilization — which is calculated by dividing the rental revenue earned on our rental fleet by the average gross carrying value of our rental fleet (comprised of original equipment costs plus additional capitalized costs) for that period — of our rental fleet decreased from 20.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 to 18.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.
International
International segment revenue and same-store sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 increased 5.0% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in segment revenue occurred early in the quarter and decreased late in the quarter, due to COVID-19 restrictions and negative impact on customer sentiment.
Our International segment loss before income taxes was $0.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to segment income of $0.2 million for the same period last year. Increased revenues were more than offset by foreign currency remeasurement losses, resulting from the devaluation of the Ukrainian hryvnia in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.
27
Shared Resources/Eliminations
We incur centralized expenses/income at our general corporate level, which we refer to as “Shared Resources,” and then allocate most of these net expenses to our segments. Since these allocations are set early in the year, and a portion is planned to be unallocated, unallocated balances may occur. Shared Resources income before income taxes was $0.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to a loss before income taxes of $0.4 million for the same period last year.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement net income and diluted earnings per share ("Diluted EPS"), both GAAP measures, we present adjusted net income and adjusted Diluted EPS, both non-GAAP measures, which include adjustments for ERP transition costs, Ukraine remeasurement, and impairment charges. We believe that the presentation of adjusted net income and adjusted Diluted EPS is relevant and useful to our management and investors because it provides a measurement of earnings on activities that we consider to occur in the ordinary course of our business. Adjusted net income and adjusted Diluted EPS should be evaluated in addition to, and not considered a substitute for, or superior to, the most comparable GAAP measure. In addition, other companies may calculate these non-GAAP measures in a different manner, which may hinder comparability of our adjusted results with those of other companies.
The following tables reconcile (i) net income, a GAAP measure, to adjusted net income and (ii) Diluted EPS, a GAAP measure, to adjusted Diluted EPS:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash reserves, cash generated from operations, and borrowings under our floorplan payable and other credit facilities. We expect these sources of liquidity to be sufficient to fund our working capital requirements, acquisitions, capital expenditures and other investments in our business, service our debt, pay our tax and lease obligations and other commitments and contingencies, and meet any seasonal operating requirements for the foreseeable future, provided, however, that our borrowing capacity under our credit agreements is dependent on compliance with various covenants as further described in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report in Form 10-K.
Equipment Inventory and Floorplan Payable Credit Facilities
As of April 30, 2020, the Company had floorplan payable lines of credit for equipment purchases totaling $762.0 million, which is primarily comprised of a $450.0 million credit facility with CNH Industrial, a $185.0 million floorplan payable line under the Bank Syndicate Credit Agreement, and a $60.0 million credit facility with DLL Finance.
Our equipment inventory turnover decreased from 1.8 times for the four-quarter period ended April 30, 2019 to 1.6 times for the four-quarter period ended April 30, 2020. The increase in equipment sales volume over the four-quarter period ended April 30, 2020 as compared to the four-quarter period ended April 30, 2019 was offset by an increase in our average equipment inventory over these time periods. Our equity in equipment inventory, which reflects the portion of our equipment inventory balance that is not financed by floorplan payables, decreased to 24.5% as of April 30, 2020 from 27.9% as of January 31, 2020. The decrease in our equity in equipment inventory is primarily due to the stocking of new equipment inventories during the three months ended April 30, 2020 and the higher level of floorplan financing available on such inventories, and increased borrowing on our floorplan lines of credit.
Long-Term Debt
During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company reclassified the Wells Fargo working capital line of credit outstanding, which had a maturity date of October 28, 2020, from long-term debt to current maturities of long-term debt. During the first quarter of fiscal of 2021, the Company entered into an amended and restated 5-year credit agreement with the Bank Syndicate. Therefore, the working capital line of credit outstanding of $10 million was reclassified from current maturities of long-term debt to long-term debt.
Adequacy of Capital Resources
Our primary uses of cash have been to fund our operating activities, including the purchase of inventories and providing for other working capital needs, meeting our debt service requirements, making payments due under our various leasing arrangements, and funding capital expenditures, including rental fleet assets. Based on our current operational performance, we believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and available borrowing capacity under our existing credit facilities will adequately provide for our liquidity needs for, at a minimum, the next 12 months.
As of April 30, 2020, we were in compliance with the financial covenants under our CNH Industrial and DLL Finance credit agreements and we were not subject to the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant under the Bank Syndicate Credit Agreement as our adjusted excess availability plus eligible cash collateral (as defined therein) was not less than 15% of the lesser of (i) aggregate borrowing base and (ii) maximum credit amount as of April 30, 2020. While not expected to occur, if anticipated operating results were to create the likelihood of a future covenant violation, we would expect to work with our lenders on an appropriate modification or amendment to our financing arrangements.
Cash Flow
Cash Flow Provided by (Used for) Operating Activities
Net cash used for operating activities was $5.4 million for the first three months of fiscal 2021, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $2.9 million for the first three months of fiscal 2020. The change in net cash provided by (used for) operating activities is primarily the result of a reduction in liabilities for the first three months of fiscal 2021.
We evaluate our cash flow from operating activities net of all floorplan activity and maintaining a constant level of equity in our equipment inventory. Taking these adjustments into account, our adjusted cash flow used for operating activities was $3.6 million for the first three months of fiscal 2021 compared to an adjusted cash flow used for operating activities of $37.4 million for the first three months of fiscal 2020. The adjusted cash flow used for operating activities decreased for the first three months of fiscal 2021, which is primarily the result of increased equipment inventory stocking during the previous
29
fiscal year. See the Adjusted Cash Flow Reconciliation below for a reconciliation of adjusted cash flow used for operating activities to the GAAP measure of cash flow used for operating activities.
Cash Flow Used for Investing Activities
Net cash used for investing activities was $5.1 million for the first three months of fiscal 2021, compared to $8.0 million for the first three months of fiscal 2020. The decrease in cash used for investing activities was the result of lower cash outflows for acquisitions and rental fleet purchases, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020.
Cash Flow Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $17.7 million for the first three months of fiscal 2021 compared to $11.8 million for the first three months of fiscal 2020. For both periods, net cash provided by financing activities was impacted by increased non-manufacturer floorplan payables associated with seasonal inventory stocking.
Adjusted Cash Flow Reconciliation
We consider our cash flow from operating activities to include all equipment inventory financing activity regardless of whether we obtain the financing from a manufacturer or other source. GAAP requires the cash flows associated with non-manufacturer floorplan payables to be recognized as financing cash flows in the consolidated statement of cash flows. We consider equipment inventory financing with both manufacturers and other sources to be part of the normal operations of our business. We also evaluate our cash flow from operating activities by assuming a constant level of equity in our equipment inventory. Our equity in our equipment inventory reflects the portion of our equipment inventory balance that is not financed by floorplan payables. Our adjustment to maintain a constant level of equity in our equipment inventory is equal to the difference between our actual level of equity in equipment inventory at each period-end as presented in the consolidated balance sheets compared to the actual level of equity in equipment inventory at the beginning of the fiscal year. We refer to this measure of cash flow as Adjusted Cash Flow.
Our equity in equipment inventory decreased to 24.5% as of April 30, 2020 from 27.9% as of January 31, 2020, and decreased to 23.6% as of April 30, 2019 from 34.4% as of January 31, 2019.
Adjusted Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Cash Flow is relevant and useful to our investors because it provides information on activities we consider to be the normal operation of our business, regardless of financing source and level of financing for our equipment inventory. The following table reconciles net cash provided by (used for) operating activities, a GAAP measure, to adjusted net cash provided by (used for) operating activities and net cash provided by (used for) financing activities, a GAAP measure, to adjusted net cash provided by (used for) financing activities.

Certain Information Concerning Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of April 30, 2020, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. We are, therefore, not exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in these relationships.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
30
January 31, 2020, and in other materials filed or to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (and included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by the Company).
Forward-looking statements are statements based on future expectations and specifically may include, among other things, statements relating to our expectations regarding exchange rate and interest rate impact on our business, the impact of farm income levels on customer demand for agricultural equipment and services, the impact of oil prices on market demand for equipment and services, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, the general market conditions of the agricultural and construction industries, equipment inventory levels, discussion of the anticipated implementation date of our new ERP system, and our primary liquidity sources, and the adequacy of our capital resources. Any statements that are not based upon historical facts, including the outcome of events that have not yet occurred and our expectations for future performance, are forward-looking statements. The words “potential,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “could,” “will,” “plan,” “anticipate,” and similar words and expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of our management. Such forward-looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect anticipated results in the future and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the duration, scope and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's operations and business, adverse market conditions in the agricultural and construction equipment industries, and those matters identified and discussed under the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Although we are not aware of any other factors, aside from those discussed in our Form 10-K, that we currently anticipate will cause our forward-looking statements to differ materially from our future actual results, or materially affect the Company’s financial condition or future results, additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk
Exposure to changes in interest rates results from borrowing activities used to fund operations. For fixed rate debt, interest rate changes affect the fair value of financial instruments but do not impact earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for floating rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value but do impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. We have both fixed and floating rate financing. Some of our floating rate credit facilities contain minimum rates of interest to be charged. Based upon our interest-bearing balances and interest rates as of April 30, 2020, holding other variables constant, a one percentage point increase in interest rates for the next 12-month period would decrease pre-tax earnings and cash flow by approximately $1.8 million. Conversely, a one percentage point decrease in interest rates for the next 12-month period would result in an increase to pre-tax earnings and cash flow of approximately $1.8 million. At April 30, 2020, we had floorplan payables of $378.3 million, of which approximately $176.4 million was variable-rate floorplan payable and $201.9 million was non-interest bearing. In addition, at April 30, 2020, we had total long-term debt, including finance lease obligations, of $58.8 million, of which $10.0 million was variable rate debt and $48.8 million was fixed rate debt.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Our foreign currency exposures arise as the result of our foreign operations. We are exposed to transactional foreign currency exchange rate risk through our foreign entities’ holding assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than their functional currency. In addition, the Company is exposed to foreign currency transaction risk as a result of certain intercompany financing transactions. The Company attempts to manage its transactional foreign currency exchange rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments, primarily foreign exchange forward contracts, or through natural hedging instruments. Based upon balances and exchange rates as of April 30, 2020, holding other variables constant, we believe that a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in all applicable foreign exchange rates would not have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows. As of April 30, 2020, our Ukrainian subsidiary had $5.2 million of net monetary assets denominated in Ukrainian hryvnia ("UAH"). We have attempted to minimize our net monetary asset position in Ukraine through reducing overall asset levels in Ukraine and through borrowing in UAH which serves as a natural hedging instrument offsetting our net UAH denominated assets. At certain times, currency and payment controls imposed by the National Bank of Ukraine have limited our ability to manage our net monetary asset position.
In addition to transactional foreign currency exchange rate risk, we are also exposed to translational foreign currency exchange rate risk as we translate the results of operations and assets and liabilities of our foreign operations from their functional currency to the U.S. dollar. As a result, our results of operations, cash flows and net investment in our foreign operations may be adversely impacted by fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates. We believe that a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in all applicable foreign exchange rates, holding all other variables constant, would not have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. After evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the participation of the Company’s management, have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) are effective.
(b) Changes in internal controls. There has not been any change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during its most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
32
PART II. - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are, from time to time, subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business. Such claims have, in the past, generally been covered by insurance. There can be no assurance that our insurance will be adequate to cover all liabilities that may arise out of claims brought against us, or that our insurance will cover all claims. We are not currently a party to any material litigation.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, including the important information in “Forward-Looking Statements,” you should carefully consider the “Risk Factors” discussed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2020, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Those factors, if they were to occur, could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements in this report, and may materially adversely affect our financial condition or future results.
We are supplementing the risk factors described under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K with the additional risk factor set forth below, which supplements, and to the extent inconsistent, supersedes such risk factors.
COVID-19 has disrupted, and may continue to disrupt, our business, which could adversely affect our financial performance.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the global economy and disrupted our business. Governmental authorities have taken severe countermeasures to slow the spread of COVID-19, including a number of shelter-in-place orders and large-scale restrictions on travel. While our stores are operational at this time and have been classified as “essential businesses,” the pandemic is a highly fluid and rapidly evolving situation and we cannot anticipate whether we may be forced to close any of our stores due to potential restrictions imposed by a governmental authority in one of the jurisdictions that we operate or due to a COVID-19 outbreak. In addition, some of the original equipment manufacturers that we represent have suspended manufacturing operations at certain plants, and some of these suspensions are currently ongoing. We cannot predict with any certainty when such plants will resume operations or whether they could be forced to suspend operations again at some point in the future due to COVID-19.
Although we believe that the COVID-19 pandemic will have a significant negative impact on our business, the magnitude of such impact cannot be predicted at this time due to numerous uncertainties, such as the impact of oil prices on the construction business, the duration of the pandemic and business closures, the effectiveness of actions taken to contain the spread of the disease and other unintended consequences. The impact of the pandemic may include changes in customer demand; our relationship with, and the financial and operational capacities of, original equipment manufacturers, captive finance companies and other suppliers; workforce availability; risks associated with our indebtedness (including available borrowing capacity, compliance with financial covenants and ability to refinance or repay indebtedness on favorable terms); the adequacy of our cash flow and earnings and other conditions which may affect our liquidity; and disruptions to our technology network and other critical systems, including our ERP Platform or other facilities or equipment.
