MOBILE MINI, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
(1) Mobile Mini, Inc. - Organization and Description of Business
Mobile Mini, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a leading provider of portable storage solutions and tank and pump solutions. In these notes, the terms “Mobile Mini” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Mobile Mini, Inc.
At March 31, 2018, we had a fleet of storage solutions units operating throughout the United States (the “U.S.”), Canada and the United Kingdom (the “U.K.”), serving a diversified customer base, including construction companies, large and small retailers, medical centers, schools, utilities, distributors, the military, hotels, restaurants, entertainment complexes and households. These customers rent our products for a wide variety of applications, including the storage of construction materials and equipment, retail and manufacturing inventory, documents and records and other goods. We also have a fleet of tank and pump solutions products, concentrated in the U.S. Gulf Coast, including liquid and solid containment units, serving a specialty sector in the industry. Our tank and pump products are rented primarily to chemical, refinery, oil and natural gas drilling, mining and environmental service customers.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mobile Mini and our wholly owned subsidiaries. We do not have any subsidiaries in which we do not own 100% of the outstanding stock. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management of Mobile Mini, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. During the current quarter, we changed the classification of certain ancillary revenues that were previously reported in rental and other revenues to sales revenues, and the corresponding expenses are now being classified in cost of sales on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of income for the three months ended March 31, 2018. As the amounts are immaterial, reclassifications were not made in the corresponding period of the prior year.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 2, 2018.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates affect the calculation of depreciation and amortization, the calculation of the allowance for doubtful accounts, the analysis of goodwill and long-lived assets for potential impairment and certain accrued liabilities.
(2) Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Share-Based Compensation – Modifications. In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a standard which clarifies what constitutes a modification of a share-based payment award. This standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We implemented this standard on January 1, 2018 and will apply the guidance to future modifications.
Business Combinations. In January 2017, the FASB issued a standard which clarifies the definition of a business and provides a new framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We implemented this standard on January 1, 2018 and will apply the guidance to future transactions.
Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. In January 2017, the FASB issued a standard requiring an entity to no longer perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. Instead, impairment will be measured using the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the reporting unit. This standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Entities may early adopt the guidance for goodwill impairment tests with measurement dates

MOBILE MINI, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) - Continued
after January 1, 2017. We have not determined an adoption date and do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued a standard on lease accounting requiring a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. This standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted and the standard requires the use of a modified retrospective transition method. We expect to adopt this standard on January 1, 2019. While we are continuing to evaluate all potential impacts of the standard, we do not believe the accounting for our contractual rental revenue will be materially affected by the adoption of this standard. We anticipate the lessee accounting for operating leases under the standard will have a material effect on our statement of financial position.
Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard on revenue from contracts with customers. The standard provides a single model for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance. The standard requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of goods or services and is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We adopted this guidance with a date of initial application of January 1, 2018.
The majority of our revenue, as it relates to contractual rental revenue, is excluded from the scope of this standard, and the accounting for the remaining revenue streams were not affected. We utilized the modified retrospective adoption and there was no impact on our consolidated financial statements, nor was there a cumulative effect of initially applying the standard. See additional disclosure in Note 4.
(3) Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is a market-based measurement determined by assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of the following three levels based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:
Level 1 — Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 — Observable inputs, other than Level 1 inputs in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we did not have any financial instruments required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.
The carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair values based on their short-term nature. The fair values of our revolving credit facility and capital leases are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities, the fair value of our revolving credit facility debt and capital leases, which are measured using Level 2 inputs, at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 approximated their respective book values.
The fair value of our $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior notes due July 1, 2024 (the “Senior Notes” or “2024 Notes”) is based on their latest sales price at the end of each period obtained from a third-party institution and is Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as there is not an active market for these Senior Notes. The Senior Notes are presented on the balance sheet net of deferred financing costs. The gross carrying value and the fair value of our Senior Notes are as follows:
| | March 31, 2018 | | | December 31, 2017 | |
| | (In thousands) | |
Carrying value | | $ | 250,000 | | | $ | 250,000 | |
Fair value | | | 259,170 | | | | 262,500 | |

(4) Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Revenue Recognition
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied.
Rental contracts with our customers may have multiple performance obligations including the direct rental of fleet to our customers, fleet delivery and pickup. Also included in rental revenues are ancillary fees including late charges and charges for damages. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using the contractually stated price as our best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct promise in the contract. Our prices are developed using methods and assumptions developed consistently across similar customers and markets.
We enter into contracts with our customers to rent equipment based on a monthly rate for our Storage Solutions fleet and a daily, weekly or monthly rate for our Tank & Pump Solutions fleet. Revenues from renting are recognized ratably over the rental period. The rental continues until cancelled by the customer or the Company. If equipment is returned prior to the end of the contractually obligated period, the excess, if any, between the amount the customer is contractually required to pay, over the cumulative amount of revenue recognized to date, is recognized as incremental revenue upon return. Customers may utilize our equipment delivery and pick-up services in conjunction with the rental of equipment, but it is not required. Revenue pursuant to the delivery or pick up of a rented unit is recognized in rental revenue upon completion of the service.
Sales revenue is primarily generated by the sale of new and used units, and to a lesser extent, parts and supplies sold to Tank & Pump Solutions customers. Sales contracts generally have a single performance obligation that is satisfied at the time of delivery. Sales revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in the contract and recognized when the customer takes possession of the unit or other sale items.
Our Storage Solutions rental customers are generally billed in advance. Additionally we may bill our customers in advance for fleet pickup. Tank & Pump Solutions rental customers are typically billed in arrears, a minimum of once per month. Sales transactions are generally billed in advance or upon transfer of the sold items. Payments from customers are generally due upon receipt of the invoice. Certain customers have extended terms for payment, but no terms are greater than one year following the invoice date.
Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue.
As disclosed in Note 2, we adopted new guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers. The adoption did not have a significant impact on our revenue, nor did it result in a cumulative effect adjustment as of January 1, 2018. We have consistently applied our accounting policies to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.
Contract Costs and Liabilities
We incur commission costs to obtain rental contracts and for sales of fleet inventory. We expect the period benefitted by each commission to be less than one year. As a result, we have applied the practical expedient for incremental costs of obtaining a contract and expense commissions as incurred.
When customers are billed in advance, we defer recognition of revenue and reflect unearned rental revenue at the end of the period. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had approximately $35.0 million and $38.3 million, respectively of unearned rental revenue included in accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. We expect to perform the remaining performance obligations and recognize the unearned rental revenue within the next twelve months. Accordingly, we have applied the practical expedient available, under which we do not disclose the amount of consideration allocable to different performance obligations.

(5) Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Restricted stock awards are subject to the risk of forfeiture and are not included in the calculation of basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding until vested. Diluted EPS is calculated under the treasury stock method. Potential common shares included restricted common stock and incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options.
The following table is a reconciliation of net income and weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted EPS:

(6) Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (principally on a standard cost basis which approximates the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Raw materials and supplies principally consist of raw steel, glass, paint, vinyl and other assembly components used in manufacturing and remanufacturing processes and, to a lesser extent, parts used for internal maintenance and ancillary items held for sale in our Tank & Pump Solutions segment. Work-in-process primarily represents partially assembled units. Finished units primarily represent purchased or assembled containers held in inventory until the container is either sold as is, remanufactured and sold, or remanufactured and deployed as rental fleet. Inventories at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 consisted of the following:
| | March 31, 2018 | | | December 31, 2017 | |
| | (In thousands) | |
Raw materials and supplies | | $ | 11,836 | | | $ | 11,732 | |

Finished units | | | 4,975 | | | | 3,889 | |
Inventories | | $ | 16,811 | | | $ | 15,671 | |
(7) Rental Fleet
Rental fleet is capitalized at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the unit using the straight-line method. Rental fleet is depreciated whether or not it is out on rent. Capitalized cost of rental fleet includes the price paid to acquire the unit and freight charges to the location when the unit is first placed in service, and when applicable, the cost of manufacturing or remanufacturing, which includes the cost of customizing units. Ordinary repair and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred.
We periodically review depreciable lives and residual values against various factors, including the results of our lenders’ independent appraisal of our rental fleet, practices of our competitors in comparable industries and profit margins achieved on sales of depreciated units.
Appraisals on our rental fleet are required by our lenders on a regular basis. The appraisal typically reports no difference in the value of the unit due to the age or length of time it has been in our fleet. Based in part upon our lender’s third-party appraiser who evaluated our fleet as of September 30, 2017, management estimates that the net orderly liquidation appraisal value as of March 31, 2018 was approximately $1.1 billion. Our net book value for this fleet as of March 31, 2018 was $999.2 million.
Depreciation expense related to our rental fleet for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $8.1 million and $7.5 million, respectively. At March 31, 2018, all rental fleet units were pledged as collateral under our Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement, dated December 14, 2015, with Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”).

(8) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives. Our depreciation expense related to property, plant and equipment for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $7.2 million and $6.1 million, respectively. Normal repairs and maintenance to property, plant and equipment are expensed as incurred. When property or equipment is retired or sold, the net book value of the asset, reduced by any proceeds, is charged to gain or loss on the disposal of property, plant and equipment and is included in rental, selling and general expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
Property, plant and equipment at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 consisted of the following:

(9) Goodwill and Intangibles
For acquired businesses, we record assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values on the respective acquisition dates. Based on these values, the excess purchase prices over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Of the $711.1 million total goodwill at March 31, 2018, $468.7 million related to the North America Storage Solutions segment, $61.2 million related to the U.K. Storage Solutions segment and $181.2 million related to the Tank & Pump Solutions segment.
The following table shows the activity and balances related to goodwill from January 1, 2018 to March 31, 2018 (in thousands):
Balance at January 1, 2018 | | $ | 708,907 | |
Foreign currency | | | 2,156 | |
Balance at March 31, 2018 | | $ | 711,063 | |
Intangible assets are amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset utilizing a method which reflects the estimated pattern in which the economic benefits will be consumed. Customer relationships are amortized based on the estimated attrition rates of the underlying customer base, other intangibles are amortized using the straight-line method.
The following table reflects balances related to intangible assets for the periods presented:

(10) Debt
Lines of Credit
On December 14, 2015, we entered into the Credit Agreement with Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent, and other lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year, $1.0 billion first lien senior secured revolving credit facility maturing on or before the earlier of (i) December 14, 2020 and (ii) the date that is 90 days prior to the final maturity date of the Senior Notes, if such Senior Notes remain outstanding on such date. The Credit Agreement also provides for the issuance of irrevocable standby letters of credit by U.S.-based lenders in amounts totaling up to $50.0 million, by U.K.-based lenders in amounts totaling up to $20.0 million, and by Canadian-based lenders in amounts totaling up to $20.0 million. The obligations of Mobile Mini and its subsidiary guarantors under the Credit Agreement are secured by a blanket lien on substantially all of our assets.
Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement and repaid or prepaid during the term may be reborrowed. Outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement bear interest at our option at either: (i) the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin (“LIBOR Loans”), or (ii) the prime rate plus an applicable margin (“Base Rate Loans”). The applicable margin for each type of loan is based on an availability-based pricing grid and ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% for LIBOR Loans and 0.25% to 0.75% for Base Rate Loans at each measurement date. As of March 31, 2018, the applicable margins are 1.50% for LIBOR Loans and 0.50% for Base Rate Loans.
Availability of borrowings under the Credit Agreement is subject to a borrowing base calculation based upon a valuation of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable, eligible container fleet (including containers held for sale, work-in-process and raw materials) and machinery and equipment, each multiplied by an applicable advance rate or limit. The rental fleet is appraised at least once annually by a third-party appraisal firm and up to 90% of the net orderly liquidation value, as defined in the Credit Agreement, is included in the borrowing base to determine the amount the Company may borrow under the Credit Agreement. At March 31, 2018, we had $621.8 million of borrowings outstanding and $373.8 million of additional borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement provides for U.K. borrowings, which are, at the Company’s option, denominated in either Pounds Sterling or Euros, by its U.K. subsidiary based upon a U.K. borrowing base; Canadian borrowings, which are denominated in Canadian dollars, by its Canadian subsidiary based upon a Canadian borrowing base; and U.S. borrowings, which are denominated in U.S. dollars, by the Company based upon a U.S. borrowing base along with any Canadian assets not included in the Canadian subsidiary.
The Credit Agreement also contains customary negative covenants, including covenants that restrict or limit the Company’s ability to, among other things: (i) allow certain liens to attach to the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ assets, (ii) repurchase or pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments on capital stock and certain other securities, or prepay certain indebtedness, (iii) incur additional indebtedness or engage in certain other types of financing transactions, and (iv) make acquisitions or other investments. In addition, we must comply with a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each quarter, upon the minimum availability amount under the Credit Agreement falling below the greater of (y) $90 million and (z) 10% of the lesser of the then total revolving loan commitment and aggregate borrowing base. As of March 31, 2018, we were in compliance with the minimum borrowing availability threshold set forth in the Credit Agreement and, therefore, are not subject to any financial maintenance covenants.
Senior Notes
We have outstanding $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2024 Notes issued at their face value on May 9, 2016. The 2024 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.875% per year, have an eight-year term and mature on July 1, 2024. Interest on the 2024 Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on January 1 and July 1. The 2024 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries.
Obligations Under Capital Leases
At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, obligations under capital leases for certain real property, transportation, technology and office related equipment were $53.7 million and $52.8 million, respectively. Certain of the lease agreements provide us with a purchase option at the end of the lease term.

Total | | $ | 621,843 | | | $ | 250,000 | | | $ | 53,697 | | | $ | 925,540 | |
(11) Income Taxes
We are subject to taxation in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, as well as various U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions. We have identified our U.S. federal tax return as our “major” tax jurisdiction. As of March 31, 2018, we are no longer subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for years prior to 2014, to examination for any U.S. state taxing authority prior to 2012, or to examination for any foreign jurisdictions prior to 2013. All subsequent periods remain open to examination.
Our effective income tax rate decreased to 25.0% for the three months ended March 31 2018, compared to 34.4% for the prior-year quarter. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the reduction of the U.S. federal tax rate from 35% to 21%, which was partially offset by the increase in disallowed deductions for officers’ compensation, both of which are a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) enacted on December 22, 2017.
In December 2017, the Company recorded $3.1 million of provisional tax expense related to the repatriation of foreign earnings for the impact of the Tax Act. The Company has not yet finalized these calculations and no adjustments to the provisional amount have been made in the current period. We will finalize the provisional amounts within one year from the date of enactment.
Uncertain tax positions are recognized and measured using a two-step approach. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation process, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
As of March 31, 2018, we had approximately $14.1 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits, of which, none would affect our effective tax rate if recognized.
Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income before taxes. Penalties and associated interest costs, if any, are recorded in rental, selling and general expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
(12) Share-Based Compensation
We have historically awarded stock options and restricted stock awards for employees and non-employee directors as a means of attracting and retaining quality personnel and to align employee performance with stockholder value. Share-based compensation plans are approved by our stockholders and administered by the stock compensation committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). The current plan allows for a variety of equity programs designed to provide flexibility in implementing equity and cash awards, including incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance stock, performance units and other stock-based awards. Participants may be granted any one of the equity awards or any combination. We do not award stock options with an exercise price below the market price of the underlying securities on the date of grant. As of March 31, 2018, 1.6 million shares are available for future grants, assuming performance-based options vest at their target amount. Generally, stock options have contractual terms of ten years.
16
MOBILE MINI, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) - Continued
Share-based compensation expense was $2.2 million and $1.3 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. This expense was recorded in rental, selling and general expenses for each quarter. As of March 31, 2018, total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock option awards was approximately $1.4 million and the related weighted-average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately 1.2 years. As of March 31, 2018, the unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock awards was approximately $11.4 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.4 years.
Stock Options. The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model which requires the input of assumptions. We estimate the risk-free interest rate based on the U.S. Treasury security rate in effect at the time of the grant. The expected life of the options, volatility and dividend rates are estimated based on our historical data. No new stock options were issued in 2018. The following are the key assumptions used for three-month period ended March 31, 2017:
Risk-free interest rate | | 1.9% | |
Expected life of the options (years) | | 5 | |
Expected stock price volatility | | 35.4% | |
Expected dividend rate | | 2.8% | |
The following table summarizes stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2018:
| | Number of Shares | | | Weighted Average Exercise Price | |
| | (In thousands) | | | | | |
Options outstanding, beginning of period | | | 3,169 | | | $ | 32.49 | |
Additional options granted based upon achievement of specified performance criteria | | | 81 | | | | 32.42 | |
Canceled/Expired | | | (168 | ) | | | 27.24 | |
Exercised | | | (55 | ) | | | 27.17 | |
Options outstanding, end of period | | | 3,027 | | | | 32.74 | |
The beginning balance of options outstanding in the table above includes approximately 0.7 million unvested performance-based stock options granted in 2017 and 2016, for which the targets were set at the time of the grant. For options granted in both 2017 and 2016, vesting conditions were related to the Company’s return on capital employed.
Certain options granted in 2017 vested contingent upon 2017 performance targets. Actual performance exceeded targets for these shares. As a result, in the first quarter of 2018, in addition to the target options included in the beginning balance, additional shares were vested. Certain options granted in 2016 also vested contingent upon 2017 performance targets. Actual performance did not achieve the minimum vesting requirements for these shares. As a result, shares totaling 0.1 million are included in the canceled/expired shares in the above table.
Included in the options outstanding at the end of the period are approximately 0.6 million of unvested performance-based stock options granted in 2017 and 2016 for which the performance criteria relates to fiscal 2018 and 2019. These stock options are included in the table at the target amount; however, the terms of these awards provide that the number of options that ultimately vest may vary between 50% and 200% of the target award, or may be zero.
A summary of stock options outstanding as of March 31, 2018 is as follows:
| | Number of Shares | | | Weighted Average Exercise Price | | | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Terms | | | Aggregate Intrinsic Value | |
| | (In thousands) | | | | | | | (In years) | | | (In thousands) | |
Outstanding | | | 3,027 | | | $ | 32.74 | | | | 5.84 | | | $ | 33,168 | |

MOBILE MINI, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) - Continued
The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $0.8 million.
Restricted Stock Awards. The fair value of restricted stock awards is estimated as the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. A summary of restricted stock award activity is as follows:
| | Shares | | | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value | |
| | (In thousands) | | | | | |
Restricted stock awards at beginning of period | | | 234 | | | $ | 31.42 | |
Awarded | | | 201 | | | | 37.85 | |
Released | | | (69 | ) | | | 32.00 | |
Forfeited | | | (6 | ) | | | 35.72 | |
Restricted stock awards at end of period | | | 360 | | | | 34.84 | |
Included in the restricted stock awarded in 2018 are 0.1 million shares that vest based upon the achievement of specified performance criteria related to fiscal 2018, 2019 and 2020. Such awards have been granted assuming a target number of shares. However, the terms of these awards provide that the number of shares that ultimately vest may vary between 50% and 200% of the target award, or may be zero. The table presents the awards at their target amount.
The restricted stock awards that vested during the three months ended March 31, 2018 had an aggregate grant date fair value of $2.2 million and an aggregate vesting date fair value of $2.6 million.
(13) Restructuring
We have undergone restructuring actions to align our business operations. The $0.1 million of restructuring expenses recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2018 related primarily to the abandonment of yards, or portions of yards due to the 2015 divesture of our wood mobile office business. These costs were included in prior year plans but were not accruable at the time of the previous charges.
Of the $0.9 million of restructuring expense recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2017, approximately $0.5 million of expenses largely related to the abandonment of yards, or portions of yard, as well as related fleet and other costs due to the divestiture of our wood mobile office business.
The following table details accrued restructuring obligations (included in accrued liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets) and related activity for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 and the three-month period ended March 31, 2018:

(14) Commitments and Contingencies
We are a party to various claims and litigation in the normal course of business. Our current estimated range of liability related to various claims and pending litigation is based on claims for which our management can determine that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Because of the uncertainties related to both the probability of incurred and possible range of loss on pending claims and litigation, management must use considerable judgment in making reasonable determination of the liability that could result from an unfavorable outcome. As additional information becomes available, we will assess the potential liability related to our pending litigation and revise our estimates. Such revisions in our estimates of the potential liability could materially impact our results of operation. We do not anticipate the resolution of such matters known at this time will have a material adverse effect on our business or consolidated financial position.
(15) Stockholders’ Equity
Dividends
On January 31, 2018, the Board authorized and declared a cash dividend to all our common stockholders of $0.250 per share of common stock. These dividends were payable on March 14, 2018 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 28, 2018. Each future quarterly dividend payment is subject to review and approval by the Board. Our Credit Agreement contains restrictions on the declaration and payment of dividends.
Treasury Stock
On November 6, 2013, the Board approved a share repurchase program authorizing up to $125.0 million of our outstanding shares of common stock to be repurchased. On April 17, 2015, the Board authorized up to an additional $50.0 million of our outstanding shares of common stock to be repurchased, for a total of $175.0 million under the share repurchase program. The shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The share repurchases are subject to prevailing market conditions and other considerations. The share repurchase program does not have an expiration date and may be suspended or terminated at any time by the Board. All shares repurchased are held in treasury.
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we did not purchase shares of our common stock under the authorized share repurchase program. Approximately $70.8 million is available for repurchase as of March 31, 2018. We withheld approximately 14,000 shares of stock from employees, for an approximate value of $0.5 million, upon vesting of share awards to satisfy minimum tax withholding obligations during the three months ended March 31, 2018. These shares were not acquired pursuant to the share repurchase program.
During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we purchased approximately 0.2 million shares of our common stock at a cost of $7.0 million under the authorized share repurchase program. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2017, we withheld approximately 21,000 shares of stock from employees, for an approximate value of $0.6 million, upon vesting of share awards to satisfy minimum tax withholding obligations. These shares were not acquired pursuant to the share repurchase program.
(16) Segment Reporting
Our operations are comprised of three reportable segments: North American Storage Solutions, U.K. Storage Solutions and Tank & Pump Solutions. Discrete financial data on each of our products is not available and it would be impractical to collect and maintain financial data in such a manner. The results for each segment are reviewed discretely by our chief operating decision maker.

We operate in the U.S., the U.K. and Canada. All of our locations operate in their local currency.

(18) Condensed Consolidating Financial Information
The following tables reflect the condensed consolidating financial information of the Company’s subsidiary guarantors of the Senior Notes and its non-guarantor subsidiaries.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the SEC. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements. The tables and information in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” section were derived from exact numbers and may have immaterial rounding differences.
Overview
Executive Summary
We believe we are the world’s leading provider of portable storage solutions, maintaining a strong leadership position in virtually all markets served. Our mission is to be the leader in portable storage solutions to customers throughout North America and the U.K. and tank and pump solutions in the U.S. We are committed to providing our customers with superior service and access to a high-quality and diverse fleet. In managing our business, we focus on renting rather than selling our units, with rental revenues representing approximately 94% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018. We believe this strategy is highly attractive and provides predictable, recurring revenue. Additionally, our assets have long useful lives and relatively low maintenance costs. We also sell new and used units and provide delivery, and other ancillary products and value-added services.
We operate our portable storage business in North America as “Mobile Mini Storage Solutions” and our tank and pump business as “Mobile Mini Tank + Pump Solutions”. As of March 31, 2018, our network of locations included 119 Storage Solutions locations, 17 Tank & Pump Solutions locations and 17 combined locations. Our Storage Solutions fleet consisted of approximately 214,900 units and our Tank & Pump Solutions fleet consisted of approximately 12,300 units.
Business Environment and Outlook. Approximately 66% of our consolidated rental revenue during the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2018 was derived from our North American Storage Solutions business, 15% was derived from our U.K. Storage Solutions business and 19% was derived from the Tank & Pump Solutions business. Our business is subject to the general health of the economy and we utilize a variety of general economic indicators to assess market trends and determine the direction of our business. On June 23, 2016, the U.K. voted to leave the European Union (the “E.U.”) in a referendum vote, which may have currently unknown social, geopolitical and economic impacts. The withdrawal negotiations began in 2017, and are expected to continue until October 2018, or later. The date of the U.K.’s departure from the E.U. is set for March 29, 2019. As developments and directions become more clear, we may adjust our strategy and operations accordingly.
Based on our assessment, we expect that the majority of our end markets will continue to drive demand for our products. In particular, construction, which represents approximately 39% of our consolidated rental revenue, is forecasted to continue to show growth in 2018 over 2017. While only about 2% of our consolidated rental revenue is generated by oil and gas customers, the oil and gas industry is forecasted to grow in 2018. Our broad footprint in the U.S. and the U.K. allows us to leverage our branch network to generate and support significant national account relationships. These national account customers typically involve seasonal demand in the third and fourth quarter during the holiday season.
Accounting and Operating Overview
Our principal operating revenues and expenses are:
Revenues:
| • | Rental revenues include all rent and ancillary revenues we receive for our rental fleet. |
| • | Sales revenues consist primarily of sales of new and used fleet and, to a lesser extent, parts and supplies sold to customers. |
28
Costs and expenses:
| • | Rental, selling and general expenses include, among other expenses, payroll and payroll-related costs (including share-based compensation and commissions for our sales team), fleet transportation and fuel costs, repair and maintenance costs for our rental fleet and transportation equipment, real estate lease expense, insurance costs, and general corporate expenses. |
| • | Cost of sales is the net book value of the units that were sold during the reported period and includes both our cost to buy, transport, remanufacture and modify used containers and our cost to manufacture Storage Solutions units and other structures. |
| • | Depreciation and amortization includes depreciation on our rental fleet, our property, plant and equipment, and amortization of definite-lived intangible assets. |
Our principal asset is our rental fleet, which is capitalized at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the unit using the straight-line method. Rental fleet is depreciated whether or not it is out on rent. Capitalized cost of rental fleet includes the price paid to acquire the unit and freight charges to the location when the unit is first placed in service and, when applicable, the cost of manufacturing or remanufacturing, which includes the cost of customizing units. Ordinary repair and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred.

We are a capital-intensive business. Therefore, in addition to focusing on measurements calculated in accordance with GAAP, we focus on EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow to measure our operating results. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and the resultant margins, and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. As such, we include in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. We also evaluate our operations on a constant currency basis. These reconciliations and a description of the limitations of these measures are included below.
29
Non-GAAP Data and Reconciliations
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as net income before discontinued operation, net of tax (if applicable), interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and debt restructuring or extinguishment expense (if applicable), including any write-off of deferred financing costs. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes certain non-cash expenses, as well as transactions that management believes are not indicative of our ongoing business. Because EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, as defined, exclude some but not all items that affect our cash flow from operating activities, they may not be comparable to similarly titled performance measures presented by other companies.
We present EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because we believe they provide an overall evaluation of our financial condition and useful information regarding our ability to meet our future debt payment requirements, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA have certain limitations as analytical tools and should not be used as substitutes for net income, cash flows, or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margins are calculated as EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues expressed as a percentage.
Reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

For more information, see Note 13 “Restructuring” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. |
(3) | Incremental costs associated with acquisitions. |
(4) | Other expenses include severance and transition expenses for senior executives. |
Free Cash Flow. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, minus or plus, net cash used in or provided by investing activities, excluding acquisitions and certain transactions. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not intended to replace net cash provided by operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. We present free cash flow because we believe it provides useful information regarding our liquidity and ability to meet our short-term obligations. In particular, free cash flow indicates the amount of cash available after capital expenditures for, among other things, investments in our existing business, debt service obligations, payment of authorized quarterly dividends, repurchase of our common stock and strategic small acquisitions.

Constant Currency. We calculate the effect of currency fluctuations on current periods by translating the results for our business in the U.K. during the current periods using the average exchange rates from the same period in the prior year. We present constant currency information to provide useful information to assess our underlying business excluding the effect of material foreign currency rate fluctuations.

Of the $140.7 million of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018, $113.8 million, or 80.9%, related to the Storage Solutions business and $26.9 million, or 19.1%, related to the Tank & Pump Solutions business. Of the $123.5 million of total revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, $101.3 million, or 82.0%, related to the Storage Solutions business and $22.2 million, or 18.0%, related to the Tank & Pump Solutions business.
Rental Revenues. Storage Solutions rental revenues increased 11.5% during the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the prior-year period, and adjusted for constant currency. This increase was driven by a 3.0% increase in year-over-year rental rates and a 5.0% increase in units on rent, as well as favorable mix and increases in delivery and pickup revenue. Beginning in the second half of 2017, we have been able to leverage our technology, footprint and fleet capacity to partner with our national account customers, which has continued to drive growth in the first quarter of 2018. Yield (calculated as rental revenues divided by average units on rent and adjusted to a 28 day period) increased 8.5% as compared to the prior-year period, due to increased rate, favorable mix and increased delivery and pickup revenue. In constant currency, yield increased 6.2%.
Rental revenues within the Tank & Pump Solutions business increased $4.5 million, or 21.7%, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to the prior-year period. The increase was driven by an approximately 24.7% increase in fleet on rent for the current quarter, partially offset by decreased rate. Demand from our downstream customers is increasing overall and maintenance projects that were postponed throughout much of 2017 are returning to normalized levels. We believe we are performing better than the market by leveraging our superior service and national footprint with our larger customers. Additionally, upstream business is seeing a year-over-year uptick due to increasing activity in the oil and gas segment. Our salesforce has also successfully pursued new diversified customers in local geographies.
Sales Revenues. We focus on rental revenues. In general, sales of units from our fleet occur due to a particular customer need, or due to having fleet in excess of demand at a particular location. Storage Solutions sales revenue of $6.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 decreased $0.1 million, or 1.8%, compared to the prior-year period. Tank & Pump Solutions sales revenue of $1.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 increased $0.3 million from the prior-year period.

Rental, Selling and General Expenses. Rental, selling and general expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $89.0 million increased $10.6 million, or 13.6%, as compared to the prior-year period. As a percentage of total revenues, rental, selling and general expenses were 63.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, which was a slight decrease from 63.4% in the prior-year period.
Within the Storage Solutions business, rental, selling and general expenses increased to $70.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, a 13.8% increase from $62.2 million in the prior-year period. Excluding the effect of changes in currency exchange rates, rental, selling and general expenses increased 11.4%. The increase was primarily due to higher transportation and salary costs required to support the additional rental activity as well as an increase in variable compensation in the current-year period, as compared to the prior-year period.
Rental, selling and general expenses for the Tank & Pump Solutions business increased $2.0 million, or 12.6%, in the current-year quarter, as compared to the prior-year quarter. The increase was largely due to increased transportation costs to support the additional rental activity as well as an increase in variable compensation in the current-year period, as compared to the prior-year period.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales is the cost related to our sales revenue only. Within the Storage Solutions business, cost of sales was $4.6 million in both quarters ending March 31, 2018 and 2017. Storage Solutions sales revenue, less cost of sales (sales profit), was $2.2 million and $2.3 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Sales profit expressed as a percentage of sales revenue (sales profit margin) was 32.2% in the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and 33.0% in the prior-year quarter.
Within the Tank & Pump Solutions business, cost of sales was $0.8 million and $0.5 million in the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Tank & Pump Solutions sales profit was $0.5 million and $0.6 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Restructuring. The $0.1 million of restructuring expenses recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2018 related primarily to the abandonment of yards, or portions of yards due to the 2015 divesture of our wood mobile office business. These costs were included in prior year plans but were not accruable at the time of the previous charges. Of the $0.9 million of restructuring expense recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2017 approximately $0.5 million of expenses largely related to the abandonment of yards, or portions of yard, as well as related fleet and other costs due to the divestiture of our wood mobile office business.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Total depreciation and amortization expense of $16.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 increased $1.6 million, or 10.2%, as compared to the prior-year period. The majority of this increase relates to depreciation on property, plant and equipment.
Interest Expense. Interest expense was $9.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and $8.4 million in the prior-year period. The increase is due to a higher effective interest rate on our lines of credit, partially offset by an overall decrease in debt outstanding. Our average debt outstanding in the quarter ended March 31, 2018 was $918.6 million, compared to $933.3 million in the prior-year quarter. The weighted average interest rate on our debt was 3.9% and 3.4% for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, excluding the amortization of deferred financing costs. Taking into account the amortization of deferred financing costs, the weighted average interest rate was 4.2% and 3.6% for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Provision for Income Taxes. During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, we had a $4.9 million provision for income taxes, compared to $5.3 million in the prior-year quarter. Our effective income tax rate decreased to 25.0% for the three months ended
34
March 31, 2018, compared to 34.4% for the prior-year quarter. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the reduction of the U.S. federal tax rate from 35% to 21%, which was partially offset by the increase in disallowed deductions for officers’ compensation, both of which are a result of the U.S. federal tax reform enacted in the fourth quarter of 2017.
Net Income. As a result of the income statement activity discussed above, we had net income of $14.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to net income of $10.2 million in the prior-year quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, we realized adjusted EBITDA of $48.6 million, an increase of $6.9 million, or 16.5%, as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $41.7 million in the prior-year period. Excluding the favorable effect of currency translation rates, adjusted EBITDA increased 14.7%. The increase was generated by strong growth in both our Storage Solutions and Tank & Pump Solutions business, and partially offset by overall increased rental, selling and general costs. Our adjusted EBITDA margins were 34.5% and 33.7% for the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, adjusted EBITDA related to the Storage Solutions business increased $4.5 million, or 12.4%, to $40.6 million from $36.1 million in the prior-year period. Excluding the favorable effect of currency translation rates, adjusted EBITDA related to Storage Solutions increased 10.3%. Adjusted EBITDA related to the Tank & Pump Solutions business increased $2.4 million, or 42.7%, to $8.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 from $5.6 million during the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margins for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 were 35.7% for the Storage Solutions business and 29.7% for the Tank & Pump Solutions business.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Renting is a capital-intensive business that requires us to acquire assets before they generate revenues, cash flow and earnings. The majority of the assets that we rent have very long useful lives and require relatively little maintenance expenditures. Most of the capital we have deployed in our rental business historically has been used to expand our operations geographically, execute opportunistic acquisitions, increase the number of units available for rent at our existing locations, and add to the mix of products we offer. During recent years, our operations have generated annual cash flow that exceeds our pre-tax earnings, particularly due to cash flow from operations and the deferral of income taxes caused by accelerated depreciation of our fixed assets in our tax return filings. Our strong cash flows from operating activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 of $34.9 million and $32.7 million, respectively, resulted in free cash flow of $18.8 million and $23.7 million, respectively. In addition to free cash flow, our principal current source of liquidity is our Credit Agreement, as described below.
Revolving Credit Facility. The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year, $1.0 billion first lien senior secured revolving credit facility maturing on or before December 14, 2020. The Credit Agreement also provides for the issuance of irrevocable standby letters of credit by U.S.-based lenders in amounts totaling up to $50.0 million, by U.K.-based lenders in amounts totaling up to $20.0 million, and by Canadian-based lenders in amounts totaling up to $20.0 million.
Our and our subsidiary guarantors’ obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a blanket lien on substantially all of our assets. At March 31, 2018, we had $621.8 million of borrowings outstanding and $373.8 million of additional borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement. We were in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2018 and were above the minimum borrowing availability threshold and, therefore, are not subject to any financial maintenance covenants.
We believe our cash provided by operating activities will provide for our normal capital needs for the next twelve months. If not, we have sufficient borrowings available under our Credit Agreement to meet any additional funding requirements. We monitor the financial strength of our lenders on an ongoing basis using publicly-available information. Based upon that information, we do not presently believe that there is a likelihood that any of our lenders will be unable to honor their respective commitments under the Credit Agreement.
Senior Notes. The 2024 Notes, issued on May 9, 2016, bear interest at a rate of 5.875% per year, have an eight-year term and mature on July 1, 2024. Interest on the 2024 Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on January 1 and July 1. The 2024 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries.

Proceeds from sale of rental fleet | | | (3,844 | ) | | | (4,622 | ) |
Rental fleet net capital expenditures | | $ | 11,545 | | | $ | 5,384 | |
Rental fleet expenditures were $15.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $5.4 million compared to the prior-year period. Expenditures for rental fleet were made to meet overall increases in Tank & Pump Solutions demand as well as for Storage Solutions demand in geographic areas of high utilization for which it did not make economic sense to reposition our fleet, as well as to meet customer demand for specific types of units. Proceeds from sale of rental fleet units decreased 16.8% in the first quarter of 2018, compared to the prior-year period. In general, sales of units from our fleet occur due to a particular customer need, or due to having fleet in excess of demand at a particular location; as such, the proceeds from sale of rental units will normally fluctuate from period to period.
Gross capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment were $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $3.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017. The current and prior-year periods include hardware and software-related costs of approximately $2.1 million and $4.1 million, respectively largely driven by our ongoing technology innovations.
Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $24.5 million, compared to $20.3 million for the prior-year period. In the current-year period, we repaid $12.4 million under our lines of credit. Also in the three months ended March 31, 2018, we paid $11.1 million of dividends. We did not repurchase any treasury stock under our repurchase program in the current quarter. In the prior-year period, we repaid $2.3 million under our lines of credit. Also in the three months ended March 31, 2017, we paid $10.1 million of dividends and purchased $7.6 million of treasury stock.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS
Our contractual obligations primarily consist of our outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement, the principal amount of the 2024 Notes and obligations under capital leases. We also have operating lease commitments for: (i) real estate properties for the majority of our locations with remaining lease terms typically ranging from one to five years, (ii) delivery, transportation and yard equipment, typically under a seven-year lease with purchase options at the end of the lease term at a stated or fair market value price, and (iii) office related equipment.
At March 31, 2018, primarily in connection with securing our insurance policies, we have provided certain insurance carriers and others with approximately $4.3 million in letters of credit. We currently do not have any obligations under purchase agreements or commitments.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET TRANSACTIONS
We do not maintain any off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or others that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
37
SEASONALITY
Demand from our Storage Solutions customers is somewhat seasonal. Construction customers typically reflect higher demand during months with more temperate weather, while demand for our Storage Solutions units by large retailers is stronger from September through December because these retailers need to store more inventories for the holiday season. Our retail customers usually return these rented units to us in December and early in the following year. In the Tank & Pump Solutions business, demand from customers is typically higher in the middle of the year from March to October, driven by the timing of customer maintenance projects. The demand for rental of our pumps may also be impacted by weather, specifically when temperatures drop below freezing.

Interest Rate Risk. As of March 31, 2018, we had $621.8 million of indebtedness under our Credit Agreement, which bears interest at variable rates. The average interest rate applicable to our Credit Agreement was 3.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Based upon the average amount of our variable rate debt of $619.6 million outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2018, our annual interest expense would increase by approximately $6.2 million for each one percentage point increase in the interest rate of our lines of credit.
Impact of Foreign Currency Rate Changes. We currently have operations outside the U.S., and we bill those customers primarily in their local currency, which is subject to foreign currency rate changes. Our operations in Canada are billed in the Canadian Dollar, and our operations in the U.K. are billed in Pound Sterling. We are exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as the financial results of our non-U.S. operations are translated into U.S. dollars. The impact of foreign currency rate changes has historically been insignificant with our Canadian operations, but we have more exposure to volatility with our U.K. operations. Based on the level of our U.K. operations during the three months ended March 31, 2018, a 10% change in the value of the Pound Sterling as compared to the U.S. dollar would have changed net income by approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. We do not currently hedge our currency transaction or translation exposure, nor do we have any current plans to do so.
On June 23, 2016, the U.K. held a referendum in which British citizens approved an exit from the E.U., commonly referred to as “Brexit.” As a result of the referendum, the global markets and currencies have been adversely impacted, including volatility in the value of the Pound Sterling as compared to the U.S. dollar. Volatility in exchange rates is expected to continue in the short term as the U.K. negotiates its exit from the E.U. In order to help minimize our exchange rate gain and loss volatility, we finance our U.K. entities through our revolving credit facility, which allows us, at our option, to borrow funds locally in Pound Sterling denominated debt. In the longer term, any impact from Brexit on us will depend, in part, on the outcome of tariff, trade, regulatory and other negotiations. Although it is unknown what the result of those negotiations will be, it is possible that new terms may adversely affect our operations and financial results.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to the Company required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
