Previous wording

​As a result of recent market volatility, enacted or potential tariffs, supply chain disruptions, labor strikes, labor shortages, inflationary pressures (including around materials, freight, labor and benefits) and other economic trends, our results of operations may be significantly impacted in future quarters. While Douglas Dynamics is primarily a domestic manufacturer and upfitter and most of our revenue is from domestic customers, we do rely on a global supply chain to source our parts and materials. We source certain materials from China and other countries where tariffs have been enacted or proposed. We may see increased materials costs as a result of these existing or future tariffs, and we may be unable to effectively offset these tariffs with price increases, which could negatively impact our profitability in future quarters. We may have challenges in short-term liquidity that could impact our ability to fund working capital needs. We have taken various steps to preserve liquidity. In January 2024, we implemented the 2024 Cost Savings Program, which was primarily in the form of restructuring charges for salaried headcount reductions and impacted both the Work Truck Attachments segment and corporate functions. We also reduce discretionary spending where possible and defer payments where appropriate within existing contractual terms, while remaining committed to long term growth projects. As discussed in Note 7 and Note 9 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in the year ended December 31, 2024, we executed a sale leaseback transaction for gross proceeds of $64.2 million, and, using a portion of the proceeds, we paid down $42.0 million on our term loan. In consideration of these recent macroeconomic trends and the various actions that we have taken to preserve our liquidity, we expect that cash on hand and cash we generate from operations, as well as available credit under our senior credit facilities, will provide adequate funds for the foreseeable future.

Previous wording

As of June 30, 2025, we had $90.5 million of total liquidity, comprised of $8.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $82.5 million of borrowing availability under our revolving credit facility, compared with total liquidity as of December 31, 2024 of approximately $154.6 million, comprised of approximately $5.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and borrowing availability of approximately $149.5 million under our revolving credit facility. The change in our total liquidity from December 31, 2024 is primarily due to the seasonality of our business. In addition, as discussed in Note 7 and Note 9 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in September 2024 we executed a sale leaseback transaction for gross proceeds of $64.2 million, and using a portion of the proceeds we paid down $42.0 million on our term loan. We have taken various steps to preserve liquidity. In January 2024, we implemented the 2024 Cost Savings Program, which was primarily in the form of restructuring charges for salaried headcount reductions and impacted both the Work Truck Attachments segment and corporate functions. We are also continuing to reduce discretionary spending where possible and deferring payments where appropriate within existing contractual terms, while remaining committed to long term growth projects. We expect that cash on hand and cash we generate from operations, as well as available credit under our senior credit facilities, will provide adequate funds for the primary uses of cash we describe above for the foreseeable future. From time to time, we may seek additional funding through the issuance of debt or equity securities to provide additional liquidity to fund acquisitions aligned with our strategic priorities and for other general corporate purposes.

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted for certain charges consisting of unrelated legal and consulting fees, severance, restructuring charges, write downs of property, plant and equipment, impairment charges, CEO transition costs, debt modification expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, and stock-based compensation. We use, and we believe our investors benefit from the presentation of, Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating our operating performance because it provides us and our investors with additional tools to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations. In addition, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and other external users of our consolidated financial statements in evaluating our operating performance as compared to that of other companies, because it allows them to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets and liabilities, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired. Our management also uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financial projections. Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our ability to make certain payments, including dividends, in compliance with our senior credit facilities, which is determined based on a calculation of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA” that is substantially similar to Adjusted EBITDA.

The decrease in the three months ended June 30, 2025 is due to lower volumes related to the timing of preseason shipments between the second and third quarters. The increase in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from the corresponding period in 2024 was due to improved snowfall in our core markets leading to higher volumes in the first quarter of 2025.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (calculated on a diluted basis) represents net income and earnings per share (as defined by GAAP), excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, severance, restructuring charges, write downs of property, plant and equipment, impairment charges, CEO transition costs, debt modification expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, certain charges related to unrelated legal fees and consulting fees, and adjustments on derivatives not classified as hedges, net of their income tax impact. Adjustments on derivatives not classified as hedges are non-cash and are related to overall financial market conditions; therefore, management believes such costs are unrelated to our business and are not representative of our results. Management believes that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are useful in assessing the Company’s financial performance by eliminating expenses and income that are not reflective of the underlying business performance. We believe that the presentation of adjusted net income for the periods presented allows investors to make meaningful comparisons of our operating performance between periods and to view our business from the same perspective as our management. Because the excluded items are not predictable or consistent, management does not consider them when evaluating our performance or when making decisions regarding allocation of resources.

Inflation in materials and labor had a material impact on our profitability in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and, although we are starting to see certain inflationary pressures ease, we expect the impact of any tariffs enacted and any ongoing inflationary pressures may also impact our profitability in the remainder of 2025. While we anticipate being able to cover this inflation by raising prices, there may be a timing difference of when we incur the increased costs and when we realize the higher prices in our backlog. In prior year as a result of inflationary pressures due to tariffs, we experienced significant increases in steel costs, but were able to mitigate the effects of these increases through both temporary and permanent steel surcharges; we expect, but cannot be certain, that we will be able to do the same going forward.
