BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Titan International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Titan or the Company) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2025 (the 2024 Form 10-K). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include estimates and assumptions of management that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis include investments in marketable equity securities of $3.4 million as of March 31, 2025 and $5.3 million as of December 31, 2024, which are Level 1 fair value measurements as the Company uses quoted market prices. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The Company’s revolving credit facility and notes payable are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short terms or stated rates, which are considered Level 2 fair value measurements. Our 7.00% senior secured notes due 2028 were carried at a cost of $397.4 million at March 31, 2025 and $397.2 million at December 31, 2024. The fair value of the senior secured notes due 2028, as determined with the assistance of an independent pricing platform using real-time trade data, was approximately $390.8 million and $390.0 million, at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, which was determined to be a level 2 fair value measurement. Hyperinflation in Argentina and Turkey In July 2018 and March 2022, the three-year cumulative rate of inflation for consumer prices and wholesale prices reached a level in excess of 100% for Argentina and Turkey, respectively. As a result, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 830, Foreign Currency Matters, Argentina and Turkey were considered hyperinflationary economies and the Company has applied the standard since December 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized a net monetary loss of $1.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively, recorded in foreign exchange loss in the consolidated statements of operations associated with the application of ASC 830. Russia-Ukraine Military Conflict In February 2022, in response to the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the United States, other North Atlantic Treaty Organization member states, as well as non-member states, announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia, certain Russian citizens and enterprises. The continuation of the conflict triggered additional economic and other sanctions enacted by the United States and other countries throughout the world. The scope of potential additional sanctions is unknown. The Company currently owns 64.3% of the Voltyre-Prom, a leading producer of agricultural and industrial tires in Volgograd, Russia, which represented approximately 6% and 5% of consolidated assets of Titan as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Russian operations represented 4% and 5% of consolidated global sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The impact of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine has not had a significant impact on the Company's global operations. The Company continues to monitor the potential impacts on the business including the increased cost of energy in Europe and the ancillary impacts that the military conflict could have on other global operations. Share Repurchase Program On December 16, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program allowing for the expenditure of up to $50.0 million (the Share Repurchase Program) for the repurchase of the Company's common stock. This authorization took effect immediately and will remain in place for up to three years. Titan did not repurchase any shares of its common stock under the Share Repurchase Program during the three months ended March 31, 2025. Titan repurchased 100,000 shares of its common stock totaling $1.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2025, $1.0 million remains available for future share repurchases under this program. The Company records treasury stock using the cost method. Supplier Financing Program A subsidiary of Titan participates in supplier financing programs pursuant to credit agreements between certain suppliers and financial institutions. The program enables those suppliers to receive payment from participating financial institutions prior to the payment date specified in the terms between Titan and the supplier. Titan does not incur annual service fees associated with its enrollment in the supplier financing program. The transactions are at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institution, and Titan is not a party to the agreement and has no economic interest in the supplier's decision to receive payment prior to the payment date. The terms between Titan and a supplier, including the amount due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by a supplier's participation in the program. Amounts due to suppliers who participate in the program are included in the accounts payable line item in Titan's consolidated balance sheets, and Titan’s payments made under the program are reflected in cash flows from operating activities in Titan's consolidated statements of cash flows. For suppliers who participate in a supplier financing program, Titan will pay the financial institution directly rather than the supplier. The confirmed obligations under the supplier financing programs included in the accounts payable line item in Titan's consolidated balance sheet were $15.8 million at March 31, 2025, and $13.2 million at December 31, 2024. New Accounting Pronouncements to be Adopted in Future Periods In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disclosure of disaggregated income taxes paid, prescribes standard categories for the components of the effective tax rate reconciliation, and modifies other income tax-related disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, may be applied prospectively or retrospectively, and allows for early adoption. These requirements will impact our income tax disclosures and we are currently evaluating the impact of adoption. In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosure (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” which requires additional disclosure about the specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. The amendments in this ASU do not change or remove current expense disclosure requirements but affect where this information appears in the notes to financial statements. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2024-03 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
