| Assets Acquired: | |
|---|---|
| Cash and cash equivalents | $9.3 |
| Accounts receivable | $75.0 |
| Unbilled receivables | 57.8 |
| Inventories | 153.7 |
| Other current assets | 7.6 |
| Property, plant and equipment | 44.6 |

The purchase price, net of cash acquired, was allocated based on the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill, all of which was allocated to the Vocational segment. The majority of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes. The purchase price allocations are preliminary at March 31, 2024 and may be subsequently adjusted to reflect the finalization of liabilities related to income taxes.
Unaudited pro forma financial information
The following table presents the supplemental consolidated results of the Company on an unaudited pro forma basis as if the acquisition of AeroTech had been completed on January 1, 2022 (in millions). The primary adjustments reflected in the unaudited pro-forma information related to (1) increase in interest expense for debt used to fund the acquisition and lower interest income due to less cash on hand available to be invested and (2) changes related to purchase accounting primarily related to amortization of purchased intangible assets recorded in conjunction with the acquisition. Adjustments to net income have been reflected net of income tax effects. The unaudited pro forma information does not include any anticipated cost savings or other effects of future integration efforts and does not purport to be indicative of results that actually would have been achieved if the operations were combined during the periods presented and is not intended to be a projection. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect any potential cost savings, operating efficiencies, debt pay down, financial synergies or other strategic benefits as a result of the acquisition or any restructuring costs to achieve those benefits.

The snow removal apparatus business, which was included in the Defense segment, had sales of $3.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
- Revenue Recognition
The Company utilizes the cost-to-cost method of percentage-of-completion to recognize revenue on its performance obligations that are satisfied over time because it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. Under the cost-to-cost method of percentage-of-completion, the Company measures progress based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to total estimated costs for the performance obligation. The Company recognizes changes in estimated sales or costs and the resulting profit or loss on a cumulative basis. Contract adjustments represent the cumulative effect of the changes on prior periods. If a loss is expected on a performance obligation, the complete estimated loss is recorded in the period in which the loss is identified.
There is significant judgment involved in estimating sales and costs, most notably within the Defense segment. Each contract is evaluated at contract inception to identify risks and estimate revenue and costs. In performing this evaluation, the Company considers risks of contract performance such as technical requirements, schedule, duration and key contract dependencies. These considerations are then factored into the Company’s estimated revenue and costs. Preliminary contract estimates are subject to change throughout the duration of the contract as additional information becomes available that impacts risks and estimated revenue and costs. In addition, as contract modifications (e.g., new orders) are received, the additional units are factored into the overall contract estimate of costs and transaction price.
Net contract adjustments impacted the Company’s results as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):
| Three Months EndedMarch 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Net sales | $(10.0) | $(6.5) |
| Operating income | (13.1) | (14.4) |
| Net income | (10.0) | (11.0) |
| Diluted earnings per share | $(0.15) | $(0.17) |
The Defense segment incurs pre-production engineering, factory setup and other contract fulfillment costs related to products produced for its customers under long-term contracts. An asset is recognized for costs incurred to fulfill an existing contract or highly-probable anticipated contract if such costs generate or enhance resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future and the costs are expected to be recovered. Costs related to customer-owned tooling that will be used in production and for which the customer has provided a non-cancelable right to use the tooling to perform during the contract term are also recognized as an asset. Under the Next Generation Delivery Vehicles (NGDV) contract with the United States Postal Service (USPS), the Company has determined that it does not transfer control of any goods or services to the USPS until the construction of the production vehicles. Deferred contract costs will be amortized over the anticipated production volume of the NGDV contract. The Company periodically assesses its contract fulfillment and customer-owned tooling for impairment. The Company didnot recognize any impairment losses on contract fulfillment or customer-owned tooling costs in thethree months ended March 31, 2024 or 2023.
Deferred contract costs, the majority of which are related to the NGDV contract, consisted of the following (in millions):
| March 31, | December 31, | |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Costs for anticipated contracts | $6.6 | $6.2 |
| Engineering costs | 482.0 | 439.6 |
| Factory setup costs | 52.5 | 44.4 |
| Customer-owned tooling | 252.3 | 220.5 |
| Deferred contract costs | $793.4 | $710.7 |
Disaggregation of Revenue
Consolidated net sales disaggregated by segment and timing of revenue recognition are as follows (in millions):
| Access | Defense | Vocational | Eliminations | Total | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Point in time | $1,221.6 | $2.3 | $560.6 | $(3.0) | $1,781.5 |

| $1,193.2 | $513.1 | $562.7 | $(0.9) | $2,268.1 |
See Note 20 for further disaggregated sales information.
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
In instances where the Company recognizes revenue prior to having an unconditional right to payment, the Company records a contract asset. The Company reduces contract assets when the Company has an unconditional right to payment. The Company periodically assesses its contract assets for impairment. The Company didnot record any impairment losses on contract assets during thethree months ended March 31, 2024 or 2023.
The Company is generally entitled to bill its customers upon satisfaction of its performance obligations, except for its long-term contracts in the Defense segment which typically allow for billing upon acceptance of the finished goods, payments received from customers in advance of performance and extended warranties that are billed in advance of the warranty coverage period. Customer payment terms generally do not exceed one year. See Note 9 for additional information on the Company’s receivables balances.
With the exception of Pierce Manufacturing Inc. (Pierce) in the Vocational segment, the Company’s contracts typically do not contain a significant financing component. Pierce customers earn interest on customer advances at a rate determined in a separate financing transaction between Pierce and the customer at contract inception. Interest charges for amounts due on customer advances are recorded in “Interest expense” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and were$8.8 million and$6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The timing of billing does not always match the timing of revenue recognition. In instances where a customer pays consideration in advance or when the Company is entitled to bill a customer in advance of recognizing the related revenue, the Company records a contract liability. The Company reduces contract liabilities when the Company transfers control of the promised goods and services. Contract assets and liabilities are determined on a net basis for each contract. Contract liabilities consisted of the following (in millions):
| March 31, | December 31, | |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Customer advances | $703.8 | $706.9 |
| Other current liabilities | 87.6 | 96.2 |
| Non-current customer advances | 1,181.5 | 1,190.7 |
| Other non-current liabilities | 69.1 | 68.5 |
| Total contract liabilities | $2,042.0 | $2,062.3 |
Revenue recognized during the period from beginning contract liabilities was as follows (in millions):
| Three Months EndedMarch 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Beginning liabilities recognized in revenue | $203.5 | $189.2 |
The Company offers a variety of service-type warranties, including optionally priced extended warranty programs. Outstanding balances related to service-type warranties are included within contract liabilities. Revenue related to service-type warranties is deferred until after the expiration of the standard warranty period. The revenue is then recognized over the term of the service-type warranty period in proportion to the costs that are expected to be incurred. Changes in the Company’s service-type warranties were as follows (in millions):
| Three Months EndedMarch 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |

At March 31, 2024, the Company had reserved 1,773,453 shares of Common Stock available for issuance to provide for the exercise of outstanding stock options and the issuance of Common Stock under incentive compensation awards.
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period for vesting of an award, or to an employee’s eligible retirement date, if earlier and applicable. Total stock-based compensation expense, including cash-settled liability awards, was$9.3 million ($8.1 million net of tax) and$6.8 million ($5.8 million net of tax) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

| Net periodic benefit cost | $0.7 | $0.5 |
Components of net periodic benefit cost other than “Service cost” and “Expenses paid” are included in “Miscellaneous, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
- Income Taxes
The Company recorded income tax expense of$54.7 million, or 23.1% of pre-tax income, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to$34.2 million, or 26.4% of pre-tax income, for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were impacted by $2.3 million of net discrete tax benefits, including a $1.2 million benefit on the purchase of discounted federal tax credits and a $1.0 million benefit related to amended state returns. Results for thethree months ended March 31, 2023 were impacted by $3.4 million of discrete tax charges, including a $1.7 million charge related to a valuation allowance recorded with respect to a deferred tax asset on marketable securities.
The Company’s liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding related interest and penalties, was$65.5 million and$64.3 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, net unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, of$52.0 million would affect the Company’s net income if recognized.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in the “Provision for income taxes” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized expense of$1.2 million and$0.9 million, respectively, related to interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits. At March 31, 2024, the Company had accruals for the payment of interest and penalties of$9.1 million. During the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that federal, state and foreign tax audit resolutions could reduce net unrecognized tax benefits by approximately$1.0 million because the Company’s tax positions are sustained on audit, the Company agrees to their disallowance or the statutes of limitations close.
Cash paid for income taxes, net of refunds disclosed on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows includes cash paid for the purchase of transferable tax credits during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 of $22.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

On March 23, 2022, the Company entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with various lenders (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) that matures in March 2027 with an initial maximum aggregate amount of availability of $1.1 billion. At March 31, 2024, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility of$641.0 million and specified outstanding letters of credit of$14.7 million reduced available capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility to$444.3 million. On April 3, 2024, the Company amended the Credit Agreement to increase the maximum aggregate amount of availability under the Revolving Credit Facility to $1.55 billion.
Under the Credit Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay (i) an unused commitment fee ranging from 0.080% to 0.225% per annum of the average daily unused portion of the aggregate revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement and (ii) a fee ranging from 0.438% to 1.500% per annum of the maximum amount available to be drawn for each letter of credit issued and outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest for dollar-denominated loans at a variable rate equal to (i) Term SOFR (the forward-looking secured overnight financing rate) plus a specified margin, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on whether certain criteria are satisfied, or (ii) the base rate (which is the highest of (x) Bank of America, N.A.’s prime rate, (y) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (z) the sum of 1.00% plus one-month Term SOFR) plus a specified margin, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on whether certain criteria are satisfied. At March 31, 2024, the interest spread on the Revolving Credit Facility was 112.5 basis points, resulting in an interest rate of 6.55%.
The Credit Agreement contains various restrictions and covenants, including a requirement that the Company maintain a leverage ratio at certain levels, subject to certain exceptions, restrictions on the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to consolidate or merge, create liens, incur additional subsidiary indebtedness and consummate acquisitions and a restriction on the disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.
The Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a maximum leverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of the Company’s consolidated indebtedness to the Company’s consolidated net income for the previous four quarters before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash charges and certain other items (EBITDA)) as of the last day of any quarter of 3.75 to 1.00, subject to the Company’s right to temporarily increase the maximum leverage ratio to 4.25 to 1.00 in connection with certain material acquisitions. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenant contained in the Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2024.
In conjunction with the Hinowa acquisition on January 31, 2023, the Company assumed €16.3 million ($17.7 million) of outstanding debt of the acquiree, of which €14.3 million ($15.5 million) was repaid by the Company in February 2023. As of March 31, 2024, €2.7 million ($2.9 million) was outstanding at Hinowa with a weighted average interest rate of 1.24%.
In March 2022, the Company entered into an uncommitted line of credit to provide short-term finance support to operations in China. The agreement expired on March 14, 2024 and was not renewed. The line of credit carried a maximum availability of 70.0 million Chinese renminbi and there wasno amount outstanding as of December 31, 2023.
In September 2019, the Company entered into an uncommitted line of credit to provide short-term finance support to operations in China. The line of credit carries a maximum availability of 426.0 million Chinese renminbi. There wereno amounts outstanding on the line of credit as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023. The line of credit carries a variable interest rate that is set by the lender, which was 3.95% at March 31, 2024.
In May 2018, the Company issued $300.0 million of 4.60% unsecured senior notes due May 15, 2028 (the “2028 Senior Notes”). In February 2020, the Company issued $300.0 million of 3.10% unsecured senior notes due March 1, 2030 (the “2030 Senior Notes”). The 2028 Senior Notes and the 2030 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”) between the Company and a trustee. The Indenture contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. The Company has the option to redeem the 2028 Senior Notes and 2030 Senior Notes at any time for a premium.
The fair value of the long-term debt is estimated based upon Level 2 inputs to reflect the market rate of the Company’s debt. At March 31, 2024, the fair value of the 2028 Senior Notes and the 2030 Senior Notes was estimated to be$294 million ($295 million at December 31, 2023) and$267 million ($269 million at December 31, 2023), respectively. The fair value of the revolving credit facilities approximated their carrying values at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. See Note 19 for the definition of a Level 2 input.
- Warranties
The Company’s products generally carry explicit warranties that extend fromsix months tofive years, based on terms that are generally accepted in the marketplace. Selected components (such as engines, transmissions, tires, etc.) included in the Company’s end products may include manufacturers’ warranties. These manufacturers’ warranties are generally passed on to the end customer of the Company’s products, and the customer would generally deal directly with the component manufacturer.
Provisions for estimated warranty and other related costs are recorded at the time of sale and are periodically adjusted to reflect actual experience. Certain warranty and other related claims involve matters of dispute that ultimately are resolved by negotiation, arbitration or litigation. At times, warranty issues arise that are beyond the scope of the Company’s historical experience. It is reasonably possible that additional warranty and other related claims could arise from disputes or other matters in excess of amounts accrued; however, the Company does not expect that any such amounts, while not determinable, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Changes in the Company’s assurance-type warranty liabilities were as follows (in millions):

- Guarantee Arrangements
Customers of the Company, from time to time, may fund purchases from the Company through third-party finance companies. In certain instances, the Company may be requested to provide support for these arrangements through credit or residual value guarantees, by which the Company agrees to make payments to the finance companies in certain circumstances as further described below.
Credit Guarantees: The Company is party to multiple agreements whereby at March 31, 2024 the Company guaranteed an aggregate of$627.7 million in indebtedness of customers. At March 31, 2024, the Company estimated that its maximum loss exposure under these contracts was$95.5 million. Terms of these guarantees coincide with the financing arranged by the customer and generally do not exceed five years. Under the terms of these agreements and upon the occurrence of certain events, the Company generally has the ability to, among other things, take possession of the underlying collateral. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate and result in their inability to make payments, then loss provisions in excess of amounts provided for at inception may be required. Given the Company’s position as original equipment manufacturer and its knowledge of end markets, the Company, when called upon to fulfill a guarantee, generally has been able to liquidate the financed equipment at a minimal loss, if any, to the Company. While the Company does not expect to experience losses under these agreements that are materially in excess of the amounts reserved, it cannot provide any assurance that the financial condition of the third parties will not deteriorate resulting in the third parties’ inability to meet their obligations. In the event that this occurs, the Company cannot guarantee that the collateral underlying the agreements will be sufficient to avoid losses materially in excess of the amounts reserved. Any losses under these guarantees would generally be mitigated by the value of any underlying collateral, including financed equipment. During periods of economic weakness, collateral values generally decline and can contribute to higher exposure to losses.
Residual Value Guarantees: The Company is party to multiple agreements whereby at March 31, 2024 the Company guaranteed to support an aggregate of$122.3 million of customer equipment value. At March 31, 2024, the Company estimated that its maximum loss exposure under these contracts was$13.6 million. Terms of these guarantees coincide with the financing arranged by the customer and generally do not exceed five years. Under the terms of these agreements, the Company guarantees that a piece of equipment will have a minimum residual value at a future date. If the counterparty is not able to recover the agreed upon residual value through sale, or alternative disposition, the Company is responsible for a portion of the shortfall. The Company is generally able to mitigate a portion of the risk associated with these guarantees by staggering the maturity terms of the guarantees, diversification of the portfolio and leveraging knowledge gained through the Company’s own experience in the used equipment markets. There can be no assurance the Company’s historical experience in used equipment markets will be indicative of future results. The Company’s ability to recover losses experienced from its guarantees may be affected by economic conditions in used equipment markets at the time of loss. During periods of economic weakness, residual values generally decline and can contribute to higher exposure to losses.
Changes in the Company’s stand ready obligations (non-contingent) to perform under guarantees were as follows (in millions):
| Three Months EndedMarch 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Balance at beginning of period | $12.4 | $12.2 |

| Changes for pre-existing guarantees, net | (0.4) | — |
| Amortization of previous guarantees | (0.4) | (0.8) |
| Balance at end of period | $12.2 | $12.2 |
The contingent portion of the guarantee liabilities that relates to current expected credit losses is recognized separately and is recorded within “Other current liabilities” and “Other non-current liabilities” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Changes in the Company’s off-balance sheet credit loss exposure (contingent) related to its guarantees were as follows (in millions):
| Three Months EndedMarch 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |

| Foreign currency translation | — | 0.1 |
| Balance at end of period | $5.2 | $6.2 |
- Contingencies
Personal Injury Actions and Other - Product and general liability claims are made against the Company from time to time in the ordinary course of business. The Company is generally self-insured for claims up to $5.0 million per claim and a reserve is maintained for the estimated costs of such claims. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the estimated net liabilities for product and general liability claims totaled$44.4 million and$50.1 million, respectively. There is inherent uncertainty as to the eventual resolution of unsettled claims. Management, however, believes that any losses in excess of established reserves will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Market Risks - The Company was contingently liable under bid, performance and specialty bonds totaling$2.68 billion and$2.58 billion at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Outstanding letters of credit issued by the Company’s banks in favor of third parties totaled$17.0 million and$18.2 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Other Matters - The Company is subject to environmental matters and legal proceedings and claims, including patent, antitrust, product liability, warranty and state dealership regulation compliance proceedings, that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the final results of such matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Actual results could vary, among other things, due to the uncertainties involved in litigation.
Major contracts for military systems are performed over extended periods of time and are subject to changes in scope of work and delivery schedules. Pricing negotiations on changes and settlement of claims often extend over prolonged periods of time. The Company’s ultimate profitability on such contracts may depend on the eventual outcome of an equitable settlement of contractual issues with the Company’s customers.
- Shareholders’Equity

- Fair Value Measurement
FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB ASC Topic 820 requires disclosures that categorize assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the assumptions (i.e., inputs) used in the valuation. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, while Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment.
The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.
The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities were as follows (in millions):
