TENNANT COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(In millions, except shares and per share data)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Tennant Company ("the Company", "we", "us", or "our") is a world leader in designing, manufacturing and marketing solutions that empower customers to achieve quality cleaning performance, reduce environmental impact and help create a cleaner, safer, healthier world. The Company is committed to creating and commercializing breakthrough, sustainable cleaning innovations to enhance its broad suite of products, including floor maintenance and cleaning equipment, detergent-free and other sustainable cleaning technologies, aftermarket parts and consumables, equipment maintenance and repair service, and asset management solutions.
Our products are used in many types of environments, including retail establishments, distribution centers, factories and warehouses, public venues such as arenas and stadiums, office buildings, schools and universities, hospitals and clinics, and more.
Customers include contract cleaners to whom organizations outsource facilities maintenance as well as businesses that perform facilities maintenance themselves. The Company reaches these customers through the industry's largest direct sales and service organization and through a strong and well-supported network of authorized distributors worldwide.
Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) requirements for interim reporting. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
2. Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), and in December 2022 subsequently issued ASU 2022-06, to temporarily ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The standard provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to certain contract modifications, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the reference rate reform, which affects the London Inter-bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), if certain criteria are met. The guidance was effective upon issuance and can generally be applied through December 31, 2024. There has been no material impact to our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows from reference rate reform as of June 30, 2023. See Note 7 for information on the replacement of LIBOR with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") in our Credit Agreements.

Contract Liabilities
Sales Returns
The right of return may exist explicitly or implicitly with our customers. When the right of return exists, we adjust the transaction price for the estimated effect of returns. We estimate the expected returns using the expected value method by assessing historical sales levels and the timing and magnitude of historical sales return levels as a percent of sales and projecting this experience into the future.
11
Sales Incentives
Our sales contracts may contain various customer incentives, such as volume-based rebates or other promotions. We reduce the transaction price for certain customer programs and incentive offerings that represent variable consideration. Sales incentives given to our customers are recorded using the most likely amount approach for estimating the amount of consideration to which the Company will be entitled. We forecast the most likely amount of the incentive to be paid at the time of sale, update this forecast quarterly, and adjust the transaction price accordingly to reflect the new amount of incentives expected to be earned by the customer. A majority of our customer incentives are settled within one year. We record our accruals for volume-based rebates and other promotions in other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.
The change in our sales incentive accrual balance was as follows:
| Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||
| 2023 | 2022 | ||||||||||
| Beginning balance | $ | 20.0 | $ | 19.9 | |||||||
| Additions to sales incentive accrual | 14.0 | 10.3 | |||||||||
| Contract payments | (15.5) | (16.4) | |||||||||
| Foreign currency fluctuations | 0.1 | (0.5) | |||||||||
| Ending balance | $ | 18.6 | $ | 13.3 | |||||||
Deferred Revenue
We sell separately priced prepaid contracts to our customers where we receive payment at the inception of the contract and defer recognition of the consideration received because we have to satisfy future performance obligations. Our deferred revenue balance is primarily attributed to prepaid maintenance contracts on our machines ranging from 12 months to 60 months. In circumstances where prepaid contracts are bundled with machines, we use an observable price to determine stand-alone selling price for separate performance obligations.
The change in the deferred revenue balance was as follows:
| Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||
| 2023 | 2022 | ||||||||||
| Beginning balance | $ | 9.3 | $ | 11.2 | |||||||
| Increase in deferred revenue representing our obligation to satisfy future performance obligations | 10.3 | 15.6 | |||||||||
| Decrease in deferred revenue for amounts recognized in net sales for satisfied performance obligations | (10.8) | (14.8) | |||||||||
| Foreign currency fluctuations | 0.1 | (0.3) | |||||||||
| Ending balance | $ | 8.9 | $ | 11.7 | |||||||
12
At June 30, 2023, $6.7 million and $2.2 million of deferred revenue was reported in other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets. Of these amounts, we expect to recognize the following approximate amounts in net sales in the following periods:
| Remaining 2023 | $ | 5.4 | |||
| 2024 | 1.8 | ||||
| 2025 | 1.0 | ||||
| 2026 | 0.4 | ||||
| 2027 | 0.2 | ||||
| Thereafter | 0.1 | ||||
| Total | $ | 8.9 | |||
At December 31, 2022, $6.6 million and $2.7 million of deferred revenue was reported in other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets.
4. Management Actions
Restructuring Actions
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, we incurred restructuring expenses as part of our ongoing global reorganization efforts. The following pre-tax restructuring charges were included in selling and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income.

7. Debt
2021 Credit Agreement
On April 5, 2021, we and certain of our foreign subsidiaries entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2021 Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent. The 2021 Credit Agreement provides us and certain of our foreign subsidiaries access to a senior secured credit facility until April 3, 2026, consisting of a term loan facility in an amount up to $100.0 million and a revolving facility in an amount up to $450.0 million with an option to expand the credit facility by up to $275.0 million, with the consent of the lenders willing to provide additional borrowings in the form of increases to their revolving facility commitment or funding of incremental term loans. Borrowings may be denominated in U.S. dollars or certain other currencies.
On November 10, 2022, we further amended the 2021 Credit Agreement (the "Amendment") to update the benchmark provisions to replace LIBOR with Term SOFR (as defined in the Amendment) as the reference rate for purposes of calculating interest under the 2021 Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment, borrowings denominated in U.S. dollars bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the Amendment) plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum, but in any case, not less than 0%, plus an additional spread of 1.10% to 1.70%, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio, or (b) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Amendment), which is the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (iii) the adjusted Term SOFR Rate for a one month period, but in any case, not less than 1.0%, plus, in any such case, 1.0%, plus an additional spread of 0.10% to 0.70%, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio. All other material terms included in the 2021 Credit Agreement remain unchanged as a result of the Amendment.
In connection with the 2021 Credit Agreement, we reaffirmed our security interest in favor of the lenders in substantially all our personal property and pledged the stock of our domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the stock of our first-tier foreign subsidiaries. The obligations under the 2021 Credit Agreement are also guaranteed by certain of our first-tier domestic subsidiaries, and those subsidiaries also provided a security interest in their similar personal property.
The 2021 Credit Agreement restricts the payment of dividends or repurchasing of stock requiring that, after giving effect to such payments, no default exists or would result from such payment. Additionally, cash dividends are restricted to $7.5 million per quarter and approved levels of other restricted payments range from $60.0 million to unlimited based on our net leverage ratio (not taking into account any acquisition holiday) after giving effect to such payment.
15
The 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, including but not limited to covenants restricting our ability to incur indebtedness and liens and to merge or consolidate with another entity. Further, the 2021 Credit Agreement contains the following covenants:
| • | A covenant requiring us to maintain an indebtedness to EBITDA ratio, determined as of the end of each of our fiscal quarters, of no greater than 3.50 to 1.00, with certain alternative requirements for permitted acquisitions greater than $50.0 million; | ||||
| • | A covenant requiring us to maintain an EBITDA to interest expense ratio for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters as of the end of each quarter of no less than 3.00 to 1.00; and | ||||
| • | A covenant restricting us from paying dividends or repurchasing stock if, after giving effect to such payments and assuming no default exists or would result from such payment, our leverage ratio is greater than 2.50 to 1.00, in such case limiting such payments to $60.0 million during any fiscal year. | ||||
Debt Outstanding

| Long-term debt | $ | 272.7 | $ | 295.1 | |||||||
(a)As of June 30, 2023, the Company is required to repay $5.0 million in outstanding credit facility borrowings and $0.3 million of finance lease liabilities over the next 12 months.
As of June 30, 2023, we had outstanding borrowings of $185.0 million and $92.5 million under our revolving facility and term loan facility, respectively. We had letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding in the amount of $3.1 million, leaving approximately $261.9 million of unused borrowing capacity on our revolving facility. Commitment fees on unused lines of credit for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $0.4 million. The overall weighted average cost of debt was approximately 6.3% and net of related cross-currency swap instruments and fixed rate interest rate swap instruments was approximately 5.2%. Further details regarding the cross-currency swap instrument are discussed in Note 9.

8. Warranty
We record a liability for warranty claims at the time of sale. The amount of the liability is based on the trend in the historical ratio of claims to sales, the historical length of time between the sale and resulting warranty claim, new product introductions and other factors. Warranty terms on machines generally range from one to four years. The majority of the liability for estimated warranty claims represents amounts to be paid out in the near term for qualified warranty issues.
The changes in warranty reserves were as follows:

9. Derivatives
Hedge Accounting and Hedging Programs
We recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets and measure them at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value are accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting.
We evaluate hedge effectiveness on our hedges that are designated and qualify for hedge accounting at the inception of the hedge prospectively, as well as retrospectively, and record any ineffective portion of the hedging instruments along with the time value of purchased contracts in the same line item of the income statement as the item being hedged on our consolidated statements of income.
Our hedging policy establishes maximum limits for each counterparty to mitigate any concentration of risk.
Balance Sheet Hedges
We hedge our net recognized foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities with foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that the value of these assets and liabilities will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. These contracts hedge assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies and are carried at fair value as either assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets with changes in the fair value recorded to net foreign currency transaction gain (loss) in our consolidated statements of income. These contracts do not subject us to material balance sheet risk due to exchange rate movements because gains and losses on these derivatives are intended to offset gains and losses on the assets and liabilities being hedged. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the notional amounts of foreign currency forward exchange contracts outstanding not designated as hedging instruments were $106.7 million and $83.7 million, respectively.
Cash Flow Hedges
We manage our floating rate debt exposure using interest rate swaps. Fixed rate swaps are used to reduce our risk of the possibility of increased interest costs. We entered into an aggregate $120 million notional amount of interest rate swaps effective December 1, 2022 that exchange a variable rate of interest for a fixed rate of interest of 4.076%. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. These swaps are scheduled to mature on December 1, 2026.
17
Fair Value Hedges
On April 5, 2022, we entered into Euro to U.S. dollar foreign exchange cross-currency swaps associated with an intercompany loan from a wholly owned European subsidiary. We enter into these foreign exchange cross-currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with this intercompany loan, and accordingly, they are not speculative in nature. These cross-currency swaps are designated as fair value hedges. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, these cross-currency swaps included €83.6 million and €84.8 million of total notional value, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregated scheduled interest payments over the course of the loan and related swaps amounted to €8.6 million. The scheduled maturity and principal payment of the loan and related swaps of €75.0 million are due in April 2027.
Net Investment Hedges
On April 5, 2022, we entered into Euro to U.S. dollar foreign exchange cross-currency swaps to hedge our exposure to adverse foreign currency exchange rate movements between Tennant Company and a wholly owned European subsidiary. We enter into these fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap agreements to protect a designated monetary amount of the Company’s net investment in its Euro functional currency subsidiary against the risk of changes in the Euro to U.S. dollar foreign exchange rate. These cross-currency swaps are designated as net investment hedges. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the cross-currency swaps included €75.0 million of total notional values. These swaps are scheduled to mature in April 2027.
The fair value of derivative instruments on our consolidated balance sheets was as follows:

10. Fair Value Measurements
Estimates of fair value for financial assets and financial liabilities are based on the framework established in the accounting guidance for fair value measurements. The framework defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. The framework discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow) and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The framework utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
•Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
20
•Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
Our population of assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements at June 30, 2023 was as follows:
| Fair Value | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Assets: | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Foreign currency forward exchange contracts | $ | 0.5 | $ | — | $ | 0.5 | $ | — | |||||||||||||||

| Interest rate swaps | 0.9 | — | 0.9 | — | |||||||||||||||||||
| Total liabilities | $ | 1.4 | $ | — | $ | 1.4 | $ | — | |||||||||||||||
Our population of assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements at December 31, 2022 was as follows:
| Fair Value | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Assets: | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Foreign currency forward exchange contracts | $ | 0.1 | $ | — | $ | 0.1 | $ | — | |||||||||||||||

| Interest rate swaps | 1.8 | — | 1.8 | — | |||||||||||||||||||
| Total liabilities | $ | 2.1 | $ | — | $ | 2.1 | $ | — | |||||||||||||||
Our foreign currency forward exchange contracts, cross-currency swaps and interest rate swaps are valued using observable Level 2 market expectations at the measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. Further details regarding our derivative instruments are discussed in Note 9.
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.
The fair value and carrying value of total debt, including current portion, was $277.1 million and $278.0 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2023. The fair value and carrying value of total debt, including current portion, was $301.8 million and $300.3 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2022. The fair value was calculated based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for bank loans with similar terms and remaining maturities, which is a Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
11. Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, we may become liable with respect to pending and threatened litigation, tax, environmental and other matters. While the ultimate results of current claims, investigations and lawsuits involving us are unknown at this time, we do not expect that these matters will have a material adverse effect on
21
our consolidated financial position or results of operations. Legal costs associated with such matters are expensed as incurred.

13. Income Taxes
We and our subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of numerous state and foreign jurisdictions. We are generally no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for taxable years before 2018. The number of years which remain open for audit for U.S. state or foreign tax purposes varies by jurisdiction but generally ranges from three to five years. We are currently undergoing income tax examinations in various foreign jurisdictions. Although the outcome of these examinations cannot be currently determined, we believe that we have adequate reserves with respect to these examinations.
We recognize potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. In addition to the liability of $3.6 million for unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2023, there was approximately $0.4 million for accrued interest and penalties. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate as of June 30, 2023 was $3.3 million. To the extent interest and penalties are not assessed with respect to uncertain tax positions, amounts accrued will be revised and reflected as an adjustment of the income tax expense.
14. Share-Based Compensation
Our share-based compensation plans are described in Note 18 of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized total share-based compensation expense of $2.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized total share-based compensation expense of $3.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The total excess tax recognized for share-based compensation arrangements during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was a tax deficiency of $0.2 million and tax benefit of $0.3 million, respectively.

Excluded from the dilutive securities shown above were options to purchase and shares to be paid out under share-based compensation plans of 261,376 and 698,378 shares of common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Excluded from the dilutive securities shown above were options to purchase and shares to be paid out under share-based compensation plans of 449,763 and 402,696 shares of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These exclusions were made if the exercise prices of the options are greater than the average market price of our common stock for the period, if the number of shares we can repurchase under the treasury stock method exceeds the weighted average shares outstanding in the options or if we have a net loss, as these effects would be anti-dilutive.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) provides a comparison of the Company's results of operations, as well as liquidity and capital resources for the quarters ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. Throughout this MD&A, the Company refers to measures used by management to evaluate performance, including financial measures that are not defined under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the U.S. Net sales excluding foreign currency translation (i.e. organic sales) is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP; however, the Company believes it is useful in understanding its financial results and provides comparable measures for understanding the operating results of the Company between different periods.
Overview
Tennant Company is a world leader in designing, manufacturing and marketing solutions that empower customers to achieve quality cleaning performance, reduce environmental impact and help create a cleaner, safer, healthier world. The Company is committed to creating and commercializing breakthrough, sustainable cleaning innovations to enhance its broad suite of products, including floor maintenance and cleaning equipment, detergent-free and other sustainable cleaning technologies, aftermarket parts and consumables, equipment maintenance and repair service, and asset management solutions. Our products are used in many types of environments, including retail establishments, distribution centers, factories and warehouses, public venues such as arenas and stadiums, office buildings, schools and universities, hospitals and clinics, and more. Customers include contract cleaners to whom organizations outsource facilities maintenance as well as businesses that perform facilities maintenance themselves. The Company reaches these customers through the industry's largest direct sales and service organization and through a strong and well-supported network of authorized distributors worldwide.
Macroeconomic Events
Supply chain challenges continue to impact the global economy. Our operating performance during the second quarter of 2023 has benefited from fewer supply chain disruptions enabling us to obtain key component parts, increase production and reduce backlog. If there are additional disruptions in our supply chain, or we continue to experience certain supply shortages, it could materially or adversely impact our operating results and financial condition. We continue to address and adapt to these temporary supply chain disruptions.
As described in Part I, Item 1A - Risk Factors in the annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, we may encounter financial difficulties if the U.S. or other global economies experience an additional or continued long-term economic downturn as our product sales are sensitive to declines in capital spending by our customers. Any sustained adverse impacts to our business, the industries in which we operate, market demand for our products, and/or certain suppliers or customers may also affect our future results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. We are actively monitoring the macroeconomic environment, especially the potential impact of global supply chain constraints on material inflation, and the potential decreased demand for our products.
Outlook
Global economic conditions continue to be highly volatile and uncertainty remains regarding supply chain challenges, inflationary trends, and overall business environment. We continue to monitor the market demand for our products in EMEA and the slower than expected recovery in APAC. We anticipate that we will need to remain agile as we continue to navigate evolving challenges. We remain confident in the long-term growth trends for our products and services in the markets we serve.

Net Sales
Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $321.7 million, a 14.8% increase as compared to consolidated net sales of $280.2 million in the second quarter of 2022. The components of the consolidated net sales change were as follows:

The 14.8% increase in consolidated net sales in the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 was driven by:
•Organic sales growth of 15.0%, which excludes the effects of foreign currency exchange. The organic sales growth was primarily due to growth across all regions led by strong equipment sales, particularly in the Americas region; partly offset by
•A net unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange across all regions of approximately 0.2%.

Americas
Americas net sales were $216.6 million for the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 21.4% from the second quarter of 2022 driven by:
•Organic sales growth of 21.7% driven equally by price realization and volume increases in all product categories, led by strong equipment and parts and consumables sales in North America; partly offset by
•A net unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange of approximately 0.3%.
Americas net sales were $421.0 million for the first six months of 2023, an increase of 24.3% from the first six months of 2022 driven by:
•Organic sales growth of 24.6% driven equally by price realization and volume increases in all product categories across the region; partly offset by
•A net unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange of approximately 0.3%.
Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA")
EMEA net sales were $80.0 million for the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 3.5% from the second quarter of 2022 driven by:
•Organic sales growth of 2.4% driven by price realization in both equipment and service product categories across the region partly offset by volume declines; and
•A net favorable impact from foreign currency exchange of approximately 1.1%.
EMEA net sales were $162.1 million for the first six months of 2023, an increase of 3.9% from the first six months of 2022 driven by:
•Organic sales growth of 6.5% driven by price realization partly offset by volume declines across all product categories. The organic growth was led by equipment across our direct geographies, especially in Iberia; partly offset by
•A net unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange of approximately 2.6%.
Asia Pacific ("APAC")
APAC net sales were $25.1 million for the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 2.4% from the second quarter of 2022 driven by:
27
•Organic sales growth of 6.3% driven primarily by price realization in Australia and volume growth in China; partly offset by
•A net unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange of approximately 3.9%.
APAC net sales were $44.4 million for the first six months of 2023, an increase of 1.8% from the first six months of 2022 driven by:
•Organic sales growth of 6.6% driven by equipment sales growth across our direct geographies, especially Australia, China and India; partly offset by
•A net unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange of approximately 4.8%.
Gross Profit
Gross profit margin of 43.4% was 550 basis points higher in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022. Gross profit margin of 42.2% was 410 basis points higher in the first six months of 2023 compared to the first six months of 2022. The increase in both periods was driven by pricing realization, more than offsetting the impact of multi-year inflation on materials and labor.
Our LIFO benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $0.2 million and $3.2 million, respectively, compared to a LIFO charge of $4.9 million and $6.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The benefit in each period was attributable to a stabilized inflation environment on materials in 2023.
Operating Expense
Selling and Administrative Expense
Selling and administrative expense ("S&A expense") was $87.0 million for the second quarter of 2023, an increase of $7.9 million compared to the second quarter of 2022. S&A expense was $168.7 million for the first six months of 2023, an increase of $13.0 million compared to the first six months of 2022. The S&A expense increase in each period was primarily driven by higher variable costs associated with increased operating performance and investments in strategic initiatives.
As a percentage of net sales, S&A expense for the second quarter of 2023 decreased 120 basis points to 27.0% from 28.2% in the second quarter of 2022. S&A expense as a percentage of net sales for the first six months of 2023 decreased 200 basis points to 26.9% from 28.9% in the first six months of 2022. The decrease in both periods was driven by the leverage attributable to our sales and gross margin growth, as well as our cost-containment initiatives.
Research and Development Expense
Research and development expense ("R&D expense") was $9.0 million, or 2.8% of net sales, for the second quarter of 2023, flat as a percentage of net sales compared to the second quarter of 2022. R&D expense was $16.9 million, or 2.7% of net sales, for the first six months of 2023, essentially flat compared to the first six months of 2022.
We continue to invest in developing innovative products and technologies at levels necessary to propel our technology and innovation leadership position.
Total Other Expense, Net
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net was $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $1.2 million in the same period of 2022. Interest expense, net was $7.7 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to $1.5 million in the first six months of 2022. The increase in both periods was the result of higher debt levels coupled with rising interest rates on our variable interest rate debt. The following table compares the debt levels, average interest rate, interest income and interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively (in millions, except percentages):

Our debt portfolio as of June 30, 2023 was comprised of debt predominately in U.S. dollars. The Company manages its floating rate debt exposure using fixed rate interest rate swaps to reduce the Company's risk of the possibility of increased interest costs. The Company has an aggregate $120 million notional amount of interest rate swaps that exchange a variable rate of interest for a fixed rate of interest of 4.076% over the term of the agreements.
Net Foreign Currency Transaction Gain (Loss)
Net foreign currency transaction gain was $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to a loss of $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2022. Net foreign currency transaction gain was $0.9 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to a loss of $0.4 million in the first six months of 2022. The favorable impact was primarily due to strengthening of the Brazilian real relative to the euro during this time.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2023 was 21.6% compared to 18.2% for the second quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in discrete tax benefits recognized during the quarter partly offset by favorable changes in the mix in forecasted earnings by country.
The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2023 was 22.7% compared to 23.1% for the first six months of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to favorable changes the mix in forecasted earnings by country.
In general, it is our practice and intention to permanently reinvest the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries and repatriate earnings only when the tax impact is zero or immaterial. No deferred taxes have been provided for withholding taxes or other taxes that would result upon repatriation of our foreign investments to the U.S.
Backlog
Backlog is one of the many indicators of business conditions in the Company's markets. Our order backlog was $255.2 million at June 30, 2023 compared to $326.4 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease was the result of the Company's ability to obtain key component parts and increase production levels. Backlog includes orders that can be cancelled or postponed at the option of the customer at any time without penalty.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $95.8 million at June 30, 2023 compared to $77.4 million as of December 31, 2022. Wherever possible, cash management is centralized and intercompany financing is used to provide working capital to subsidiaries as needed. Our current ratio was 2.3 as of June 30, 2023 and 2.2 as of December 31, 2022. Our primary working capital, which is comprised of accounts receivable, inventories and accounts payables, was $348.9 million as of June 30, 2023 and $332.0 million as of December 31, 2022. Our debt-to-capital ratio was 34.8% as of June 30, 2023 compared to 38.9% as of December 31, 2022.
As of June 30, 2023, we had letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding in the amount of $3.1 million, leaving approximately $261.9 million of unused borrowing capacity on our revolving facility.
29
Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $70.2 million compared to net cash used by operating activities of $23.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was the result of improved operating performance and moderating investments in working capital.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $12.0 million compared to net cash used by investing activities of $10.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in cash outflows was the result of higher capital expenditures as the Company continues to deploy cash flow toward operational capital needs.
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $38.1 million compared to net cash used by financing activities of $12.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in cash outflows was driven by repayments of borrowings and share purchases. The Company repurchased 143,305 shares of common stock for $10.0 million during the first six months of 2023 as we continue to focus on returning capital to shareholders in line with our capital allocation priorities.
