Item 1. Business
General
Harley-Davidson Motor Company was founded in 1903. Harley-Davidson, Inc. was incorporated in 1981, at which time it purchased the Harley-Davidson® motorcycle business from AMF Incorporated in a management buyout. In 1986, Harley-Davidson, Inc. became publicly held. Harley-Davidson, Inc. is the parent company of the group of companies referred to as Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) and Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS). Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the “Company” include Harley-Davidson, Inc. and all of its subsidiaries. The Company operates in two segments: Motorcycles and Related Products (Motorcycles) and Financial Services. The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services and are managed separately based on the fundamental differences in their operations.
Strategy(1)
During 2020, the Company executed a set of actions, referred to as The Rewire. The Rewire was a critical overhaul of the Company's business to set the Company on a new course and provide a solid foundation to execute its new 2021-2025 strategic plan, The Hardwire. The Rewire is discussed further under Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The Hardwire is the Company's 2021-2025 strategic plan guided by its mission and vision, which the Company introduced on February 2, 2021. The plan targets long-term profitable growth through focused efforts that extend and strengthen the brand and drive value for its shareholders. The Company's ambition is to enhance its position as the most desirable motorcycle brand in the world. Desirability is a motivating force driven by emotion. Harley-Davidson has long been associated with igniting desirability, and it is embedded in its vision; it is at the heart of its mission and it is part of its 118-year legacy. To drive desirability, the Company will:
•Design, engineer and advance the most desirable motorcycles in the world - reflected in quality, innovation, and craftsmanship
•Build a lifestyle brand valued for the emotion reflected in every product and experience for riders and non-riders alike
•Focus on customers, delivering adventure and freedom for the soul
The Hardwire strategic priorities are as follows:
Profit focus: Investing in its strongest motorcycle segments – Harley-Davidson plans to invest significant time and resources on strengthening and growing its leadership positions in its strongest, most profitable motorcycle segments: Touring, large Cruiser and Trike.
3

Selective expansion and redefinition: To win in attractive motorcycle segments and markets – The Company plans to selectively expand into and within motorcycle segments, focusing on product segments that are profitable and aligned with the Company's product and brand capabilities, such as Adventure Touring and middleweight Cruiser.
The Company plans to focus on approximately 50 global markets that matter most to its future growth. This includes the following priority markets: United States, DACH (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland), Japan, China, Canada, France, United Kingdom, Italy, Australia, and New Zealand. The Company will also continue to test further avenues for desirable long-term growth such as premium low displacement motorcycles.
Lead in Electric: Investing in leading the electric motorcycle market – Electric motorcycles are important to Harley-Davidson’s future and it is committed to and passionate about leading the electric motorcycle market. The focus will be on technology development, with an approach to product and go-to-market actions that reflect the expectations of the targeted customer to deliver the most desirable electric motorcycles in the world.
Growth beyond bikes: Expanding complementary businesses and engaging beyond product – Harley-Davidson creates products, services and experiences that inspire its customers to discover adventure, find freedom for the soul and live the Harley-Davidson lifestyle. The Company's Parts & Accessories, General Merchandise and Financial Services businesses are all important pillars of the Company's future success as a global lifestyle brand. Through The Hardwire, the Company plans to grow the profitability of these businesses through refreshed product and program offerings, stronger execution and additional digital and in-dealership purchase opportunities.
Customer experience: Growing our connection with riders and non-riders – The Hardwire puts customers at the forefront of the Company's products, experiences and investments – from the rider who may dream of motorcycling or just learned to ride, all the way to riders who are deeply passionate about and invested in the Harley-Davidson lifestyle. The Company recognizes the different needs and expectations of its customers and is creating touchpoints tailored to individual needs. Powered by integrated data, the goal is to seamlessly engage with customers, creating a meaningful, unique and personalized experience with Harley-Davidson each and every time.
Inclusive Stakeholder Capitalism: Prioritizing people, planet and profit – The Company strives to deliver long-term value to all stakeholders – people (employees, independent dealers, customers, suppliers, investors, and society), planet, and profit. Inclusive Stakeholder Management is the unifying theme for how the Company will help drive additional shareholder value for its investors.
The Hardwire financial targets are as follows:
•Mid single-digit revenue growth from 2021 through 2025 in the Motorcycles segment, with solid growth expectations for Motorcycles, Parts & Accessories and General Merchandise.
•Steady improvement in Motorcycles segment operating margin compared to 2019 (most recent comparable year) through 2025 driven by increased efficiencies across operations and leverage within selling, general and engineering expenses, as the Company maintains a lean cost structure. This includes anticipated continued investments in the business and brand.
•Double-digit growth in Financial Services segment operating income from 2021 through 2025 behind growth in the Motorcycles segment and optimization of the Company’s digital platform.
•Low double-digit diluted earnings per share growth from 2021 through 2025.
•Capital investments between $190 million to $250 million annually.
Cash allocation priorities are first to fund growth through The Hardwire initiatives, then to reward shareholders through dividends.
The Hardwire replaces the Company's previous long-term strategy and objectives and the previously disclosed More Roads to Harley-Davidson plan.

Motorcycles and Related Products Segment
The Motorcycles segment consists of HDMC which designs, manufactures and sells Harley-Davidson motorcycles as well as motorcycle parts, accessories, general merchandise and services. The Motorcycles segment conducts business on a global basis, with sales in the United States (U.S.), Canada, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA), Asia Pacific, and Latin America. The Company's products are sold to retail customers primarily through a network of independent dealers. Independent dealerships generally stock and sell the Company's motorcycles, Parts & Accessories (P&A), General Merchandise, licensed products, and perform services on Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
Independent Harley-Davidson dealers are located worldwide. Independent dealership points by geographic location as of December 31, 2020 were as follows:

Motorcycles – Harley-Davidson offers both internal combustion and electric powered motorcycles. The Company's internal combustion engines generally have displacements that are greater than 600 cubic centimeters (cc), up to a maximum displacement of approximately 1900cc and electric motors with kilowatt (kW) peak power equivalents greater than 600cc.
The motorcycle industry is comprised of the following segments:
•Cruiser – emphasizes styling, customization and casual riding
•Touring – emphasizes rider comfort and load capacity and incorporates features such as fairings and luggage compartments ideal for long rides, including the Company's three-wheeled Trike models
•Standard – a basic motorcycle typically featuring upright seating for one or two passengers
•Sportbike – incorporates racing technology and performance and aerodynamic styling and riding position
•Dual – designed with the capability for use on-road as well as for some off-road recreational use, including Adventure Touring
The Company's lineup of motorcycles offered through 2020 competes primarily in the cruiser and touring segments. Beginning in 2021, the Company is expanding into Adventure Touring with its new Pan America™ motorcycle.
Competition in the motorcycle industry is based upon a number of factors including product capabilities and features, styling, price, quality, reliability, warranty, availability of financing, and quality of the dealer networks that sell the products. The Company believes its motorcycles continue to generally command a premium price at retail relative to competitors’ motorcycles. Harley-Davidson motorcycles feature unique styling, customization, innovative design, distinctive sound, superior quality, reliability and include a warranty. The Company also considers the availability of its line of motorcycle Parts & Accessories and General Merchandise, the availability of financing through HDFS and its global network of independent dealers to be competitive advantages.

The retail sales data in Item 7 includes sales of Harley-Davidson Street® 500 motorcycles which are excluded from this table. In addition, some differences may arise related to the timing of data submissions to the independent sources.
Parts & Accessories and General Merchandise – The Company offers a line of Harley-Davidson P&A and General Merchandise. P&A products are comprised of Genuine Motor Parts and Genuine Motor Accessories. Genuine Motor Parts include replacement parts and Genuine Motor Accessories includes mechanical and cosmetic accessories. General Merchandise includes riding gear and apparel, including Genuine MotorClothes®.
Licensing – The Company creates reach and awareness of the Harley-Davidson brand among its customers and the non-riding public by licensing the name “Harley-Davidson” and other trademarks owned by the Company for use on a range of products.
Patents and Trademarks – The Company strategically manages its portfolio of patents, trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks and other intellectual property.
The Company owns, and continues to obtain, patent rights that relate to its motorcycles and related products and processes for their production. Certain technology-related intellectual property is also protected, where appropriate, by license agreements, confidentiality agreements or other agreements with suppliers, employees and other third parties. The Company diligently protects its intellectual property, including patents and trade secrets, and its rights to innovative and proprietary technologies and designs. This protection, including enforcement, is important as the Company moves forward with investments in new products, designs and technologies. While the Company believes patents are important to its business operations and in the aggregate constitute a valuable asset, the success of the business is not dependent on any one patent or group of patents. The Company’s active patent portfolio has an average remaining age of approximately six years. A patent review committee manages the patent strategy and portfolio of the Company.
6

Trademarks are important to the Company’s motorcycle and related products businesses and licensing activities. The Company has a vigorous worldwide program of trademark registration and enforcement to maintain and strengthen the value of the trademarks and prevent the unauthorized use of those trademarks. The HARLEY-DAVIDSON trademark and the Bar and Shield trademark are each highly recognizable to the public and are very valuable assets. Additionally, the Company uses numerous other trademarks, trade names and logos which are registered worldwide. The following are among the Company’s trademarks: HARLEY-DAVIDSON, H-D, HARLEY, the Bar & Shield Logo, MOTORCLOTHES, the MotorClothes Logo, the #1 Logo, the Willie G Skull Logo, HARLEY OWNERS GROUP, H.O.G., the H.O.G. Logo, LIVEWIRE, SOFTAIL and SPORTSTER. The HARLEY-DAVIDSON trademark has been used since 1903 and the Bar and Shield trademark since at least 1910. Substantially all of the Company’s trademarks are owned by H-D U.S.A., LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, which also manages the Company’s global trademark strategy and portfolio.
Marketing – The Company’s brand, products and the riding experience are marketed to consumers worldwide. Marketing occurs primarily through digital and experiential activities as well as through more traditional promotional and advertising activities. Additionally, the Company’s independent dealers engage in a wide range of local marketing and events.
Experiences that build community and connect consumers with the Harley-Davidson brand and with one another have traditionally been at the center of much of the Company’s marketing efforts. To develop, engage and retain committed riders, the Company participates in and sponsors motorcycle rallies, racing activities, music festivals and other special events. This includes events sponsored by the Harley Owners Group (H.O.G.®) to build community and connect Harley-Davidson motorcycle riders around the world. These activities help inspire interest in riding, foster motorcycle culture and build a passionate community of Harley-Davidson riders. The COVID-19 pandemic has limited the Company's ability to participate in and sponsor certain events. The Company expects to resume these activities as the COVID-19 pandemic subsides.
Seasonality – The seasonality of the Company’s wholesale motorcycle shipments generally correlates with the timing of retail sales made by independent dealers. Retail sales generally track closely with regional riding seasons. In addition, during 2020, wholesale shipments and retail sales were impacted by the Company's decision to reset, beginning in 2020, the timing of its annual new model year introduction from the third quarter to the first quarter. As a result of this change, initial shipments of new model year 2021 motorcycles did not occur until the first quarter of 2021.
Motorcycle Manufacturing – The majority of the Company's manufacturing processes are performed at facilities located in the U.S. The Company's U.S. manufacturing facilities supply the U.S. market as well as certain international markets. Additionally, the Company operates facilities in Thailand and Brazil. The Company's Thailand facility manufactures motorcycles for certain Asian and European markets. In Brazil, the Company operates a facility that assembles motorcycles from component kits sourced from the Company’s U.S. facilities and suppliers. The Company's global manufacturing operations are focused on driving world-class quality and performance. A global manufacturing footprint enables the Company to be close to customers, provide quality products at a competitive price and grow its overall business.
Raw Materials and Purchased Components – The Company continues to establish and reinforce long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with its suppliers. Through these collaborative relationships, the Company gains access to technical and commercial resources for application directly to product design, development and manufacturing initiatives. In addition, through a continued focus on collaboration and strong supplier relationships, the Company believes it will be positioned to achieve its strategic objectives and deliver cost and quality improvements over the long-term.(1)
The Company's principal raw materials include steel and aluminum castings, forgings, steel sheet and bar. The Company also purchases certain motorcycle components including, but not limited to, electronic fuel injection systems, batteries, tires, seats, electrical components, instruments and wheels. The Company closely monitors the overall viability of its supply base. The Company does not anticipate material difficulties in obtaining raw materials or components.(1) The Company is proactively working with its suppliers to limit the risk of interruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Regulation – International, federal, state and local authorities have various environmental control requirements relating to air, water and noise that affect the business and operations of the Company. The Company strives to ensure that its facilities and products comply with all applicable environmental regulations and standards.
The Company’s motorcycles and certain other products that are sold in the U.S. are subject to certification by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for compliance with applicable emissions and noise standards. Certain Harley-Davidson products are designed to comply with EPA and CARB standards and the Company believes it will comply with future requirements when they go into effect.(1) Additionally, certain of the Company’s products must comply with the motorcycle emissions, noise and safety standards of Canada, the European Union, Japan, Brazil and certain other foreign markets where they are sold, and the Company believes its products currently comply with those standards. As the Company expects environmental standards to become more stringent over time, the Company will continue to incur research, development and production costs in this area for the foreseeable future.(1)
7

The Company, as a manufacturer of motorcycle products, is subject to the U.S. National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act, which is administered by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The Company has certified to NHTSA that certain of its motorcycle products comply fully with all applicable federal motor vehicle safety standards and related regulations. The Company has from time to time initiated certain voluntary recalls. During the three years ending in 2020, the Company accrued $54.6 million associated with 10 voluntary recalls.
Employees – As of December 31, 2020, the Motorcycles segment had approximately 4,600 employees, including approximately 1,800 hourly unionized employees at its U.S. manufacturing facilities, represented with collective bargaining agreements as follows:
•York, Pennsylvania – International Association of Machinist and Aerospace Workers (IAM), agreement will expire on October 15, 2022
•Milwaukee, Wisconsin – United Steelworkers of America (USW) and IAM, agreements will expire on March 31, 2024
•Tomahawk, Wisconsin – USW, agreement will expire on March 31, 2024
Financial Services Segment
The Financial Services segment consists of HDFS which is engaged in the business of financing and servicing wholesale inventory receivables and retail consumer loans, primarily for the purchase of Harley-Davidson motorcycles. HDFS also works with certain unaffiliated insurance companies to provide motorcycle insurance and protection products to motorcycle owners. HDFS conducts business principally in the U.S. and Canada. The Company’s independent dealers and their retail customers in EMEA, Asia Pacific and Latin America generally have access to financing through third-party financial institutions, some of which have licensing agreements with HDFS.
Wholesale Financial Services – HDFS provides wholesale financial services to U.S. and Canadian independent Harley-Davidson dealers, including floorplan and open account financing of motorcycles and P&A. All U.S. and Canadian independent dealers utilized HDFS' financing program s at some point during 2020.
Retail Financial Services – HDFS provides retail financing to consumers, consisting primarily of installment lending for the purchase of new and used Harley-Davidson motorcycles. HDFS’ retail financial services are available through most independent Harley-Davidson dealerships in the U.S. and Canada.
Insurance Services – HDFS works with certain unaffiliated insurance companies which offer point-of-sale protection products through most independent Harley-Davidson dealers in the U.S. and Canada, including motorcycle insurance, extended service contracts and motorcycle maintenance protection. HDFS also direct-markets motorcycle insurance and extended service contracts to owners of Harley-Davidson motorcycles. In addition, HDFS markets a comprehensive package of business insurance coverages and services to owners of independent Harley-Davidson dealerships.
Licensing – HDFS has licensing arrangements with third-party financial institutions that issue credit cards bearing the Harley-Davidson brand in the U.S. and certain international markets. Internationally, HDFS licenses the Harley-Davidson brand to local third-party financial institutions that offer products to the Company’s retail customers such as financing and insurance.
Funding – The Company believes a diversified and cost-effective funding strategy is important to meet HDFS’ goal of providing credit while delivering appropriate returns and profitability. Financial Services operations in 2020 were funded with unsecured debt, unsecured commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities, committed unsecured bank facilities asset-backed securitizations and deposits.
Competition – The Company regards its ability to offer a package of wholesale and retail financial services in the U.S. and Canada as a significant competitive advantage. Competitors in the financial services industry compete for business based largely on price and, to a lesser extent, service. HDFS competes on convenience, service, brand association, dealer relations, industry experience, terms, and price.
In the U.S. and Canada, HDFS financed 67.6% and 42.2% of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles retailed by independent dealers during 2020, respectively, compared to 65.9% and 45.0%, respectively, during 2019. Competitors for retail motorcycle finance business are primarily banks, credit unions and other financial institutions. In the motorcycle insurance business, competition primarily comes from national insurance companies and from insurance agencies serving local or regional markets. For insurance-related products such as extended service contracts, HDFS faces competition from certain regional and national industry participants as well as dealer in-house programs. Competition for the wholesale motorcycle finance business primarily consists of banks and other financial institutions providing wholesale financing to independent Harley-Davidson dealers in their local markets.
8

Trademarks – HDFS uses various trademarks and trade names for its financial services and products, which are licensed from H-D U.S.A., LLC, including HARLEY-DAVIDSON, H-D and the Bar & Shield logo.
Seasonality – HDFS experiences seasonal variations in retail financing activities based on the timing of regional riding seasons in the U.S. and Canada. In general, from mid-March through August, retail financing volume is greatest. HDFS wholesale financing volume is affected by inventory levels at independent Harley-Davidson dealers. Independent dealers generally have higher inventory in the first half of the year. As a result, outstanding wholesale finance receivables are generally higher during the same period.
Regulation – HDFS operations are generally subject to supervision and regulation by federal and state administrative agencies and various foreign governmental authorities. Many of the requirements imposed by such entities are in place to provide consumer protection as it pertains to the selling and servicing of financial products and services. Therefore, HDFS operations may be subject to limitations imposed by regulations, laws and judicial and/or administrative decisions. In the U.S., for example, applicable laws include the federal Truth-in-Lending Act, Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Depending on the specific facts and circumstances involved, non-compliance with these laws may limit the ability of HDFS to collect all or part of the principal or interest on applicable loans, entitling the borrower to rescind the loan or to obtain a refund of amounts previously paid, or could subject HDFS to the payment of damages or penalties and administrative sanctions, including “cease and desist” orders, and could limit the number of loans eligible for HDFS' securitization programs.
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act granted the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the Bureau) significant supervisory, enforcement and rule-making authority in the area of consumer financial products and services. Certain actions and regulations of the Bureau will directly impact HDFS and its operations. For example, the Bureau has supervisory authority over non-bank larger participants in the vehicle financing market, which includes a non-bank subsidiary of HDFS.
Such regulatory requirements and associated supervision also could limit the discretion of HDFS in operating its business. Noncompliance with applicable statutes or regulations could result in the suspension or revocation of any charter, license or registration at issue, as well as the imposition of civil fines, criminal penalties and administrative sanctions.
Eaglemark Savings Bank (ESB), a subsidiary of HDFS, is a Nevada state thrift chartered as an Industrial Loan Company. The activities of ESB are governed by federal laws and regulations and State of Nevada banking laws. ESB is subject to examination by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and Nevada state bank examiners. ESB originates retail loans, retains certain of those loans and sells the remaining loans to a non-banking subsidiary of HDFS. This process allows HDFS to offer retail products with many common characteristics across the U.S. and to similarly service loans to U.S. retail customers.
Employees – As of December 31, 2020, the Financial Services segment had approximately 550 employees.
Human Capital Management
Under The Rewire, the Company undertook a thorough review of its operating model, resulting in a complete organizational restructuring that resulted in the elimination of approximately 700 positions globally, including the termination of approximately 500 employees. The result is, as of December 31, 2020, a global workforce of approximately 5,200 employees. As part of The Rewire, the Company's Inclusive Stakeholder Management (ISM) team was formed, bringing together personnel focused on key elements of inclusion, sustainability, social impact and future of work. One of the Company's first commitments under ISM was to extend employee ownership to all employees by offering an equity grant to approximately 4,500 employees not otherwise eligible for equity grants, including hourly production workers, in February 2021.
The Company believes that the success of The Hardwire will be realized through the engagement and empowerment of its employees. The Company believes all stakeholders are more successful when they are included. Key areas of focus for the Company include:
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) – The Company understands that the strength of its brand worldwide requires a diverse and inclusive workforce. The Company is committed to building a more equitable workplace and is revamping talent acquisition, development and recognition practices accordingly. Harley-Davidson's DEI strategy focuses on three core principles: Invite Everyone In, Illuminate the Issues, and Infuse Talent. To create a culture of inclusion and a workplace that supports diversity of background, thought, and perspectives, Business Employee Resource Groups (BERGs) provide opportunities for employees to exchange ideas, influence and deliver programming, grow and develop professionally and
9

personally, as well as support business initiatives. Currently, the following BERGs have been established and participation is open to all employees: African American, Asian Professionals, Latin American Professionals, LGBTQ+, Military, Women, and Young Professionals. Based on employee provided identity information, 71.4% of the Company’s workforce is male, 82.0% is White and 85.3% is U.S. based.
Health and Safety – The Company believes that providing and expecting a healthy and safe work environment is vital to our success. It has created a world-class safety program that reduces safety risk by instilling a company-wide safety culture, instituting proactive engineering standards, implementing work-hardening programs, and providing on-site ergonomic resources and medical clinics. This cornerstone of the Company's workplace environment became even more front and center with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Harley-Davidson quickly pivoted the majority of its salaried workforce to predominately remote work in March 2020. The Company's manufacturing facilities largely shut down mid-March through May 2020 resulting in layoffs for hourly workers, in accordance with the Company's collective bargaining agreements. As production resumed, the Company implemented strict protocols following best practice guidance from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO), all while exceeding the Company's world class health and safety metrics (2020 OSHA Recordable Rate: 0.3, down 0.3 from 2019).
Talent and Culture – The Company launched H-D #1 leadership principles to its global workforce in 2020 to serve as a guide in its cultural journey to become a high-performing organization. The Company is committed to making Harley-Davidson synonymous with highly desirable, inspiring, and engaged workplaces. The Company is evolving its workspaces and work ways, as well as its talent, employee development and retention practices to advance its five-year strategic plan, The Hardwire.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
An investment in Harley-Davidson, Inc. involves risks, including those discussed below. These risk factors should be considered carefully before deciding whether to invest in the Company.
Operational Risks
•The Company’s operations have been and may continue to be disrupted to varying degrees due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The spread of COVID-19 and the subsequent actions taken to mitigate the spread impacted the Company's operations and ability to carry out its business as usual. The Company closed facilities, including temporarily suspending its global manufacturing starting in March 2020 through May 2020. At the end of April 2020, nearly sixty percent of the Company's global dealer network was temporarily closed due to various federal, state and local government actions that were implemented to attempt to mitigate the public health crisis. The Company’s worldwide retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles were down significantly versus the prior year due to the temporary dealer closures. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the Company’s supply chain, including shortages and shipment delays; limited the ability of the Company’s distributors and independent dealers to operate; caused some retail customers to delay their purchase decisions; adversely impacted the ability of the Company’s retail credit customers to meet their loan obligations on a timely basis and made collection efforts more difficult; disrupted global capital markets impacting the Company’s access to capital, cost of capital, and overall liquidity levels; delayed the Company’s new product development efforts; and resulted in the cancellation or adjustments to the scope of riding and similar events that are important to the Company’s marketing efforts. While many of actions implemented to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 have been rolled back in certain markets, the continued spread of COVID-19, and the efforts to avoid that, could do the following, each of which could be material: (i) result in further disruptions of the Company’s supply chain; (ii) again limit the ability of the Company’s distributors and independent dealers to operate, which could impact their ability to purchase and sell the Company’s products and meet their loan obligations to the Company; (iii) continue to cause some retail customers to delay their purchase decisions, which could cause a decrease in demand for the Company’s product; (iv) continue to adversely impact the ability of the Company’s retail credit customers to meet their loan obligations on a timely basis and make collection efforts more difficult; (v) result in further disruption of global capital markets; (vi) continue to delay the Company’s new product development efforts; and (vii) cause other unpredictable events.
•The Company’s ability to remain competitive is dependent upon its capability to develop and successfully introduce new, innovative and compliant products. The motorcycle market continues to change in terms of styling preferences and advances in new technologies, and at the same time, it is subject to increasing regulations related to safety and emissions. The Company must continue to distinguish its products from its competitors’ products with unique styling and new technologies that consumers desire. Introducing new models may not lead to the desired result of driving unit sales growth. As the Company incorporates new and different features and technology into its products, the Company must protect its intellectual property from imitators and ensure its products do not infringe the intellectual property of other companies. In addition, these new products must comply with applicable regulations worldwide and satisfy the potential demand for products that produce lower emissions and achieve better fuel economy. The Company must make product advancements to respond to changing consumer preferences and market demands. The Company must also be able to design and manufacture these products and deliver them to a global marketplace in an efficient and timely manner and at prices that are attractive to customers. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in these endeavors or that existing and prospective customers will like or want the Company’s new products.
•Increased supply of and/or declining prices for used motorcycles and excess supply of new motorcycles may adversely impact retail sales of new motorcycles by the Company’s independent dealers. The Company has observed that when the supply of used motorcycles increases or the prices for used Harley-Davidson motorcycles decline, there can be reduced demand among retail purchasers for new Harley-Davidson motorcycles (at or near manufacturer’s suggested retail prices). Further, the Company and its independent dealers can and do take actions that influence the markets for new and used Harley-Davidson motorcycles. For example, introduction of new motorcycle models with significantly different functionality, technology or other customer satisfiers can result in increased supply of used motorcycles, which could result in declining prices for used motorcycles and prior model-year new motorcycles. Also, while the Company is operating with a remodeled approach to supply and inventory management, that approach may not be effective, or the Company’s competitors could choose to supply new motorcycles to the market in excess of demand at reduced prices, which could also have the effect of reducing demand for new Harley-Davidson motorcycles (at or near manufacturer’s suggested retail prices). Ultimately, reduced demand among retail purchasers for new Harley-Davidson motorcycles leads to reduced shipments by the Company.
11

•The motorcycle industry has become increasingly competitive. Many of the Company’s competitors are more diversified than the Company, and they may compete in all segments of the motorcycle market, other powersports markets and/or the automotive market. Also, the Company’s manufacturer’s suggested retail price for its motorcycles is generally higher than its competitors, and as price becomes a more important factor for consumers in the markets in which the Company competes, the Company may be at a competitive disadvantage. Furthermore, many competitors headquartered outside the U.S. experience a financial benefit from a strengthening in the U.S. dollar relative to their home currency that can enable them to reduce prices to U.S. consumers. The Company is also subject to policies and actions of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Many major competitors of the Company are not subject to the requirements of the SEC or the NYSE rules. As a result, the Company may be required to disclose certain information that may put the Company at a competitive disadvantage to its principal competitors. In addition, the Company’s financial services operations face competition from various banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions that may have access to additional sources of capital at more competitive rates and terms, particularly for borrowers in higher credit tiers. The Company's responses to these competitive pressures, or its failure to adequately address and respond to these competitive pressures, may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.
•The Company must prevent and detect issues with its products, components purchased from suppliers and its suppliers’ manufacturing processes to reduce recall campaigns, warranty costs, litigation, product liability claims, delays in new model launches and regulatory investigations. The Company must also complete any recall campaigns within cost expectations. The Company must continually improve and adhere to product development and manufacturing processes and ensure that its suppliers and their sub-tier suppliers adhere to product development and manufacturing processes, to ensure high quality products are sold to retail customers. If product designs or manufacturing processes are defective, the Company could experience delays in new model launches, field actions such as product programs and product recalls, inquiries or investigations from regulatory agencies, and warranty claims and product liability claims, which may involve purported class actions. While the Company uses reasonable methods to estimate the cost of warranty, recall and product liabilities and appropriately reflects those in its financial statements, there is a risk the actual costs could exceed estimates and result in damages that are not covered by insurance. Further, selling products with quality issues, the announcement of recalls and the filing of product liability claims (whether or not successful), may also adversely affect the Company’s reputation and brand strength with a resulting adverse impact on sales of new products.
•A cybersecurity breach may adversely affect the Company’s reputation, revenue and earnings. The Company and certain of its third-party service providers and vendors receive, store and transmit digital personal information in connection with the Company’s human resources operations, financial services operations, e-commerce, the Harley Owners Group, independent dealer management, mobile applications and other aspects of its business. The Company’s information systems, and those of its third-party service providers and vendors, are vulnerable to continually evolving cybersecurity risks. Unauthorized parties have attempted to and may attempt in the future to gain access to these systems or the information the Company and its third-party service providers and vendors maintain and use through fraud or other means of deceiving the Company's employees and third-party service providers and vendors. Hardware, software or applications the Company develops or obtains from third-parties may contain defects in design or manufacture or other problems that could unexpectedly compromise information security and/or the Company’s operations. The methods used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service or sabotage systems are constantly evolving and may be difficult to anticipate or detect. The Company has implemented and regularly reviews and updates processes and procedures to protect against unauthorized access to or use of secured data and to prevent data loss. However, the ever-evolving threats mean the Company and third-party service providers and vendors must continually evaluate and adapt systems and processes, and there is no guarantee that they will be adequate to safeguard against all data security breaches or misuses of data. The Company has experienced information security attacks, but to date they have not materially compromised the Company’s computing environment or resulted in a material impact on the Company’s business or operations or the release of confidential information about its employees, customers, dealers, suppliers or other third parties. Any future significant compromise or breach of the Company’s data security, whether external or internal, or misuse of customer, employee, dealer, supplier or Company data could result in disruption to the Company’s operations, significant costs, lost sales, fines and lawsuits and/or damage to the Company’s reputation. In addition, as the regulatory environment related to information security, data collection and use, and privacy becomes increasingly rigorous with new and evolving requirements, compliance could also result in the Company being required to incur additional costs.
•The Company relies on third-party suppliers to obtain raw materials and provide component parts for use in the manufacture of its motorcycles. The Company may experience supply problems relating to raw materials and
12

components such as unfavorable pricing, poor quality or untimely delivery. In certain circumstances, the Company relies on a single supplier to provide the entire requirement of a specific part, and a change in this established supply relationship may cause disruption in the Company’s production schedule. In addition, the price and availability of raw materials and component parts from suppliers can be adversely affected by factors outside of the Company’s control such as the supply of a necessary raw material, natural disasters or widespread infectious disease like COVID-19. Further, the Company's suppliers may experience difficulty in funding their day-to-day cash flow needs because of tightening credit caused by financial market disruption. In addition, adverse economic conditions and related pressure on select suppliers due to difficulties in the global manufacturing arena could adversely affect their ability to supply the Company. Changes in laws and policies relating to trade and taxation may also adversely impact the Company's foreign suppliers. These supplier risks may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.
•The Company primarily sells its products at wholesale and must rely to a large extent on a network of independent dealers and distributors to manage the retail distribution of its products. The Company depends on the capability of its distributors and independent dealers to develop and implement effective retail sales plans to create demand among retail purchasers for the motorcycles and related products and services that the dealers purchase from the Company. If the Company’s distributors and independent dealers are not successful in these endeavors, or do not appropriately adapt to the evolving retail landscape, then the Company will be unable to maintain or grow its revenues and meet its financial expectations. Further, distributors and independent dealers may experience difficulty in funding their day-to-day cash flow needs and paying their obligations resulting from adverse business conditions, such as weakened retail sales and tightened credit. If distributors and independent dealers are unsuccessful, they may exit or be forced to exit the business or, in some cases, the Company may seek to terminate relationships with certain distributors and independent dealerships. As a result, the Company could face additional adverse consequences related to the termination of distributor and independent dealer relationships. Additionally, liquidating a former distributor or independent dealer’s inventory of new and used motorcycles can add downward pressure on new and used motorcycle prices. Further, the unplanned loss of any of the Company’s distributors or independent dealers may lead to inadequate market coverage for retail sales of new motorcycles and for servicing previously sold motorcycles, create negative impressions of the Company with its retail customers, and adversely impact the Company’s ability to collect wholesale receivables that are associated with that independent dealer.
•Weather may impact retail sales by the Company's independent dealers. The Company has observed that abnormally cold and/or wet conditions in a region, including impacts from hurricanes or unusual storms, could have the effect of reducing demand or changing the timing for purchases of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Reduced demand for new Harley-Davidson motorcycles ultimately leads to reduced shipments by the Company.
•The Company’s Motorcycles segment is dependent upon unionized labor. A substantial portion of the hourly production employees working in the Motorcycles segment are represented by unions and covered by collective bargaining agreements. The Company is currently a party to three collective bargaining agreements with local affiliates of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers and the United Steelworkers of America. Current collective bargaining agreements with hourly employees in Wisconsin will expire in 2024, and the agreement with employees in Pennsylvania will expire in 2022. There is no certainty that the Company will be successful in negotiating new agreements with these unions that extend beyond the current expiration dates or that these new agreements will be on terms that will allow the Company to be competitive. The Company's decisions regarding opening, closing, expanding, contracting or restructuring its facilities may require changes to existing or new bargaining agreements. Failure to renew agreements when they expire or to establish new collective bargaining agreements on terms acceptable to the Company and the unions could result in the relocation of production facilities, work stoppages or other labor disruptions which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.
•The Company incurs substantial costs with respect to employee pension and healthcare benefits. The Company’s cash funding requirements and its estimates of liabilities and expenses for pensions and healthcare benefits for both active and retired employees are based on several factors that are outside the Company’s control. These factors include funding requirements of the Pension Protection Act of 2006, the rate used to discount the future estimated liabilities, the rate of return on plan assets, current and projected healthcare costs, healthcare reform or legislation, retirement age and mortality. Changes in these factors can impact the expense, liabilities and cash requirements associated with these benefits which could have a material adverse effect on future results of operations, liquidity or shareholders’ equity. In addition, costs associated with these benefits put the Company under significant cost pressure as compared to its competitors that may not bear the costs of similar benefit plans.
13

•The Company relies on third parties to perform certain operating and administrative functions for the Company. Similar to suppliers of raw materials and components, the Company may experience problems with outsourced services, such as unfavorable pricing, untimely delivery of services, or poor quality. Also, these suppliers may experience adverse economic conditions due to difficulties in the global economy that could lead to difficulties supporting the Company's operations. In light of the amount and types of functions that the Company has outsourced, these service provider risks may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and results of operations.
Strategic Risks
•The Company may not be able to successfully execute its short-term and long-term business plans and strategies. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to execute its business plans and strategies, including the Company’s recently announced strategic plan, The Hardwire. The Company’s ability to meet the strategic priorities in The Hardwire depends upon, among other factors, the Company’s ability to: (i) realize expectations concerning market demand for electric, middleweight, and small-displacement models, which may depend in part on the building of necessary infrastructure for electric models, (ii) develop and introduce products on a timely basis that the market accepts, that enable the Company to generate desired sales levels and that provide the desired financial returns, (iii) successfully carry out its global manufacturing and assembly operations, (iv) effectively implement changes relating to its dealers and distribution methods, (v) accurately analyze, predict and react to changing market conditions, (vi) perform in a manner that enables the Company to benefit from market opportunities while competing against existing and new competitors, and (vii) avoid adverse impacts to its operations and/or demand for its products that may result due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
•International sales and operations subject the Company to risks that may have a material adverse effect on its business. While the Company has narrowed its geographic reach on an international basis, international operations and sales remain an important part of the Company’s strategy. There is no assurance that the Company will succeed with its new approach to international markets which includes focusing on high potential markets, and exiting or reducing its presence in remaining markets. Further, international operations and sales are subject to various risks, including political and economic instability, local labor market conditions, the imposition of foreign tariffs and other trade barriers, the impact of foreign government laws and regulations and U.S. laws and regulations that apply to international operations, the effects of income and withholding taxes, governmental expropriation and differences in business practices. The Company may incur increased costs and experience delays or disruptions in product deliveries and payments in connection with international operations and sales that could cause loss of revenues and earnings. Unfavorable changes in the political, regulatory and business climate could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s net sales, financial condition, profitability and cash flows. Business practices that may be accepted in other countries can violate U.S. or other laws that apply to the Company. Violations of laws that apply to the Company's foreign operations, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, could result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, could disrupt the Company's business and result in an adverse effect on the Company's reputation, business and results of operations.
•The Company’s success depends upon the continued strength of the Harley-Davidson brand. The Company believes that the Harley-Davidson brand has significantly contributed to the success of its business and that maintaining and enhancing the brand is critical to expanding its customer base. Failure to protect the brand from infringers or to grow the value of the Harley-Davidson brand may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.
•The timing of a launch of a premium low displacement motorcycle for the China market is uncertain. The Company has identified China as a priority geographic market, and its objectives include launching a premium low displacement motorcycle for the China market. In 2019, the Company announced a collaboration with Zhejiang Qianjiang Motorcycle Co., Ltd. to support the launch of a smaller, more accessible Harley-Davidson motorcycle planned for the China market in 2020. To date, the Company has not launched a premium low displacement motorcycle through this collaboration. If this collaboration is not productive, although the Company believes it could collaborate with others, there is no assurance that would be the case. If the Company is not able to launch a premium low displacement motorcycle for the China market, that would adversely affect its growth plans for China.
•The Company continues to explore and consider the details related to its electric motorcycle strategy and its ultimate approach may expose the Company to risks. The Company is focusing its electric strategy through a separate division with a dedicated leadership team. While the objective is to allow for greater flexibility in product development and in the creation of an innovative go-to-market strategy for its electric motorcycles, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to create a successful electric motorcycle strategy or successfully execute it.

Financial Risks
•The financial services operations are exposed to credit risk on its retail and wholesale finance receivables. Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from a failure by a customer, including the Company's independent dealers, to meet the terms of any contract with the Company’s financial services operations. Credit losses are influenced by general business and economic conditions, including unemployment rates, bankruptcy filings and other factors that negatively affect household incomes, as well as contract terms and customer credit profiles. Credit losses are also influenced by the markets for new and used motorcycles, and the Company and its independent dealers can and do take actions that impact those markets. For example, the introduction of new models by the Company that represent significant upgrades on previous models may result in increased supply or decreased demand in the market for used Harley-Davidson branded motorcycles, including those motorcycles that serve as collateral or security for credit that HDFS has extended. This in turn could adversely impact the prices at which repossessed motorcycles may be sold, which may lead to increased credit losses for HDFS. Negative changes in general business, economic or market factors may have an additional adverse impact on the Company’s financial services credit losses and future earnings. The Company believes HDFS' retail credit losses may continue to increase over time due to changing consumer credit behavior, HDFS' efforts to increase prudently structured loan approvals to sub-prime borrowers, and new financing programs that may result in different loan performance than our existing programs.
•The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates. The Company sells its products globally and in most markets outside the U.S. those sales are made in the foreign country’s local currency. As a result, a weakening in those foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar can adversely affect the Company's revenue and margin, and cause volatility in its results of operations. Furthermore, many competitors headquartered outside the U.S. experience a financial benefit from a strengthening in the U.S. dollar relative to their home currency that can enable them to reduce prices to U.S. consumers. The Company is also subject to risks associated with changes in prices of commodities. Earnings from the Company’s financial services business are affected by changes in interest rates. Although the Company uses derivative financial instruments to some extent attempt to manage a portion of its exposure to foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and interest rate risks, the Company does not attempt to manage its entire expected exposure, and these derivative financial instruments generally do not extend beyond one year and may expose the Company to credit risk in the event of counterparty default to the derivative financial instruments. There can be no assurance that in the future the Company will successfully manage these risks.
•The financial services operations are highly dependent on accessing capital markets to fund operations at competitive interest rates, the Company’s access to capital and its cost of capital are highly dependent upon its credit ratings, and any negative credit rating actions will adversely affect its earnings and results of operations. Liquidity is essential to the Company’s financial services business. Disruptions in financial markets may cause lenders and institutional investors to reduce or cease to loan money to borrowers, including financial institutions. The Company’s financial services operations may be negatively affected by difficulty in raising capital in the long-term and short-term capital markets. These negative consequences may in turn adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations in various ways, including through higher costs of capital and reduced funds available through its financial services operations to provide loans to independent dealers and their retail customers. Additionally, the ability of the Company and its financial services operations to access unsecured capital markets is influenced by their short-term and long-term credit ratings. If the Company’s credit ratings are downgraded or its ratings outlook is negatively changed, then the Company’s cost of borrowing could increase, which may result in reduced earnings and reduced interest margins, and the Company’s access to capital may be disrupted or impaired.
Legal, Regulatory & Compliance Risks
•Changes in trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs, their enforcement and downstream consequences, may have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and outlook. Tariffs and/or other developments with respect to trade policies, trade agreements and government regulations could have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. Without limitation, (i) tariffs currently in place, (ii) the imposition by the U.S. government of new tariffs on imports to the U.S. and/or (iii) the imposition by foreign countries of tariffs on U.S. products could materially increase: (a) the cost of Harley-Davidson products that the Company is offering for sale in relevant countries, (b) the cost of certain products that the Company sources from foreign manufacturers and (c) the prices of certain raw materials that the Company utilizes. The Company may not be able to pass such increased costs on to distributors, independent dealers or their customers, and the Company may not be able to secure sources of certain products and materials that are not subject to tariffs on a timely basis. Such developments could have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. As an example, in 2018, the European Union (EU) placed an
15

incremental tariff on motorcycles imported into the EU from the U.S., which is scheduled to increase effective June 1, 2021. In addition, the U.S. government imposed increased tariffs on imports from China (Section 301 tariffs), which has resulted in higher costs for components and products sourced from China. The ongoing impact of these tariffs will depend on future trade discussions between the U.S. and China or the Company’s ability to avoid or offset these costs should the tariffs remain in place.
•The Company must comply with governmental laws and regulations that are subject to change and involve significant costs. The Company’s sales and operations in areas outside the U.S. may be subject to foreign laws, regulations and the legal systems of foreign courts or tribunals. These laws and policies governing operations of foreign-based companies may result in increased costs or restrictions on the ability of the Company to sell its products in certain countries. U.S. laws and policies affecting foreign trade and taxation may also adversely affect the Company's international sales operations.
The Company’s U.S. sales and operations are subject to governmental policies and regulatory actions of agencies of the United States Government, including the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), SEC, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, U.S. Department of Labor and Federal Trade Commission. In addition, the Company’s sales and operations are also subject to laws and actions of state legislatures and other local regulators, including independent dealer statutes and licensing laws. Changes in regulations, changes in interpretations of regulations by governmental agencies, or the imposition of additional regulations may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.
Tax – The Company is subject to income and non-income based taxes in the U.S. federal and state jurisdictions and in various foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining the Company's worldwide income tax liabilities and other tax liabilities including the impact of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017 Tax Act). The Company believes that it complies with applicable tax laws. If the governing tax authorities have a different interpretation of the applicable laws or if there is a change in tax laws, the Company's financial condition and/or results of operations may be adversely affected. To the extent there are considerable changes to tax laws, the Company may need to readjust its tax strategy, and may not be able to take full advantage of such changes.
Environmental – The majority of the Company’s motorcycle products use internal combustion engines. These motorcycle products are subject to statutory and regulatory requirements governing emissions and noise, including standards imposed by the EPA, state regulatory agencies, such as the California Air Resources Board and regulatory agencies in certain foreign countries where the Company’s motorcycle products are sold. The Company is also subject to statutory and regulatory requirements governing emissions and noise in the conduct of the Company’s manufacturing operations. Any significant change to the regulatory requirements governing emissions and noise may substantially increase the cost of manufacturing the Company’s products. If the Company fails to meet existing or new requirements, then the Company may be unable to produce and sell certain products or may be subject to fines or penalties.
Further, in response to concerns about global climate changes and related changes in consumer preferences, the Company is likely to face greater regulatory and customer pressure to develop products that generate less emissions. This will require the Company to spend additional funds on research, product development and implementation costs, and subject the Company to the risk that the Company’s competitors may respond to these pressures in a manner that gives them a competitive advantage.
Financial Services – The Company’s financial services operations are governed by a wide range of U.S. federal and state and foreign laws that regulate financial and lending institutions, and financial services activities. In the U.S. for example, these laws include the federal Truth-in-Lending Act, Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Fair Credit Reporting Act. The financial services operations originate the majority of its consumer loans through its subsidiary, Eaglemark Savings Bank, a Nevada state thrift chartered as an Industrial Loan Company. U.S. federal and state bodies may in the future impose additional laws, regulation and supervision over the financial services industry.
Violations of, or non-compliance with, relevant laws and regulations may limit the ability of HDFS to collect all or part of the principal or interest on applicable loans, may entitle the borrower to rescind the loan or obtain a refund of amounts previously paid, could subject HDFS to payment of damages, civil fines, or criminal penalties and administrative sanctions and could limit the number of loans eligible for HDFS securitizations programs. Such regulatory requirements and associated supervision also could limit the discretion of HDFS in operating its business, such as through the suspension or revocation of any charter, license or registration at issue, as well as the imposition of administrative sanctions, including "cease and desist" orders. The Company cannot assure that the applicable laws or regulations will not be amended or construed in ways that are adverse to HDFS, that new laws and regulations will
16

not be adopted in the future, or that laws and regulations will not attempt to limit the interest rates or convenience fees charged by HDFS, any of which may adversely affect the business of HDFS or its results of operations.
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) is a sweeping piece of legislation impacting financial services and the full effect continues to evolve as regulations that are intended to implement the Dodd-Frank Act are adopted, and the text of the Dodd-Frank Act is analyzed by stakeholders and the courts. The Dodd-Frank Act also created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the Bureau). The Bureau has significant enforcement and rule-making authority in the area of consumer financial products and services. The direction that the Bureau will take, the regulations it will adopt, and its interpretation of existing laws and regulations are all elements that are not yet fully known and subject to change. Compliance may be costly and could affect operating results as the implementation of new forms, processes, procedures and controls and infrastructure may be required. Compliance may create operational constraints and place limits on pricing. Failure to comply, as well as changes to laws and regulations, or the imposition of additional laws and regulations, could affect HDFS’ earnings, limit its access to capital, limit the number of loans eligible for HDFS securitization programs and have a material adverse effect on HDFS’ business and results of operations. The Bureau also has supervisory authority over certain non-bank larger participants in the vehicle financing market, which includes a non-bank subsidiary of HDFS, allowing the Bureau to conduct comprehensive and rigorous on-site examinations that could result in enforcement actions, fines, changes to processes and procedures, product-related changes or consumer refunds, or other actions.
•The Company’s operations may be affected by greenhouse emissions and climate change and related regulations. Climate change is receiving increasing attention worldwide. Many scientists, legislators and others attribute climate change to increased levels of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, which has led to significant legislative and regulatory efforts to limit greenhouse gas emissions. The U.S. Congress has previously considered and may in the future implement restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, several U.S. states, including states where the Company has manufacturing facilities, have previously considered and may in the future implement greenhouse gas registration and reduction programs. Energy security and availability and its related costs affect all aspects of the Company’s manufacturing operations in the U.S., including the Company’s supply chain. The Company’s manufacturing facilities use energy, including electricity and natural gas, and certain of the Company’s facilities emit amounts of greenhouse gas that may be affected by these legislative and regulatory efforts. Greenhouse gas regulation could increase the price of the electricity the Company purchases, increase costs for use of natural gas, potentially restrict access to or the use of natural gas, require the Company to purchase allowances to offset the Company’s own emissions or result in an overall increase in costs of raw materials, any one of which could increase the Company’s costs, reduce competitiveness in a global economy or otherwise negatively affect the Company’s business, operations or financial results. Many of the Company’s suppliers face similar circumstances. Physical risks to the Company’s business operations as identified by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and other expert bodies include scenarios such as sea level rise, extreme weather conditions and resource shortages. Extreme weather may disrupt the production and supply of component parts or other items such as natural gas, a fuel necessary for the manufacture of motorcycles and their components. Supply disruptions would raise market rates and jeopardize the continuity of motorcycle production.
•Regulations related to materials that the Company purchases to use in its products could cause the Company to incur additional expenses and may have other adverse consequences. Laws or regulations impacting the Company's supply chain, such as the UK Modern Slavery Act, could affect the sourcing and availability of some of the raw materials that the Company uses in the manufacturing of its products. The Company's supply chain is complex, and if it is not able to fully understand its supply chain, then the Company may face reputational challenges with customers, investors or others and other adverse consequences. For example, many countries in which the Company distributes its products are introducing regulations that require knowledge and disclosure of virtually all materials and chemicals in the Company’s products. Accordingly, the Company could incur significant costs related to the process of complying with these laws, including potential difficulty or added costs in satisfying the disclosure requirements.
General Risks
•Changes in general economic and business conditions, tightening of credit and retail markets, political events or other factors may adversely impact independent dealers’ retail sales. The motorcycle industry is impacted by general economic conditions over which motorcycle manufacturers have little control. These factors can weaken the retail environment and lead to weaker demand for discretionary purchases such as motorcycles. Weakened economic conditions in certain business sectors and geographic areas can also result in reduced demand for the Company's products. Tightening of credit can limit the availability of funds from financial institutions and other lenders and sources of capital which could adversely affect the ability of retail consumers to obtain loans for the
17

purchase of motorcycles from lenders, including HDFS. Should general economic conditions or motorcycle industry demand decline, the Company’s results of operations and financial condition may be substantially adversely affected. The motorcycle industry can also be affected by political conditions and other factors over which motorcycle manufacturers have little control.
•The Company is and may in the future become subject to legal proceedings and commercial or contractual disputes. The uncertainty associated with substantial unresolved claims and lawsuits may harm the Company’s business, financial condition, reputation and brand. The defense of the lawsuits may result in the expenditures of significant financial resources and the diversion of management’s time and attention away from business operations. In addition, although the Company is unable to determine the amount, if any, that it may be required to pay in connection with the resolution of the lawsuits by settlement or otherwise, any such payment may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations. Refer to Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for a discussion of certain legal proceedings in which the Company is involved.
The Company disclaims any obligation to update these risk factors or any other forward-looking statements. The Company assumes no obligation, and specifically disclaims any such obligation, to update these risk factors or any other forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or other factors affecting such forward-looking statements.

Overview(1)
The Company’s net income for 2020 was $1.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to $423.6 million, or $2.68 per diluted share in 2019 on lower operating income in both the Motorcycles and Financial Services segments.
The Motorcycles segment reported an operating loss of $186.1 million in 2020 down $475.7 million from operating income of $289.6 million in 2019. The decline in operating income was due primarily to a 32.1% decrease in wholesale motorcycle shipments, a less favorable product mix and higher restructuring expenses, partially offset by reduced selling, administrative and engineering expenses.
Operating income from the Financial Services segment in 2020 was down $70.2 million or 26.4% compared to 2019 due primarily to an increase in the provision for credit losses, higher interest expense and restructuring charges. The provision for credit losses was higher due to negative economic conditions during 2020 and also reflects the continued impact of the 2020 adoption of a new accounting standard related to the recognition of expected credit losses. The new standard requires recognition of full lifetime expected credit losses upon initial recognition of a financial instrument carried at amortized cost, replacing the prior, incurred loss methodology. The Company adopted the new accounting standard on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach. As a result, prior period results were not restated.
Worldwide independent dealer retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles decreased 17.4% in 2020 compared to 2019. Retail sales were adversely impacted primarily in the first half of 2020, by a temporary suspension of the Company's manufacturing operations, from mid-March through May 2020, and independent dealer closures related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company believes retail sales in the second half of 2020, compared to prior year, were adversely impacted by the Company's decision to reset its new model year launch timing, beginning in 2020, from the third quarter to the first quarter. In addition, the Company believes lower dealer inventory levels related to its new approach to supply and inventory management also resulted in lower retail sales during the second half of 2020 compared to the same period last year.
COVID-19 Pandemic Response and Recovery Actions(1)
Cash Preservation – During 2020, the Company delivered on its previously disclosed plans to reduce planned capital and planned non-capital spending to preserve approximately $250 million of cash in 2020. The spending reductions exclude the impact of restructuring charges as discussed further under “Restructuring Plan Costs and Savings”. Also, during 2020, the Company suspended discretionary share repurchases and reduced its cash dividend to $0.02 per share for the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020.
Liquidity – At the end 2020, the Company had $4.7 billion of available liquidity through cash, cash equivalents and availability under its credit and conduit facilities. Liquidity is discussed in more detail under “Liquidity and Capital Resources”.
Supporting Dealers and Riders – The Company's response and recovery plans have included supporting global dealers and customers. HDFS continues to work with qualified retail borrowers who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic by offering short-term adjustments to payment due dates. These temporary extensions do not affect the associated interest rate or loan term. At the end of 2020, the volume of payment extensions on eligible retail loans declined, but has not yet returned to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels. The Company continues to grant payment extensions to customers in accordance with its policies.
Community Strength – The Company continues to proactively manage through the COVID-19 pandemic and has implemented robust protocols to keep workers safe in its manufacturing facilities. Most non-production workers continue to work remotely in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on future results depends on future developments, such as the ultimate duration and scope of the pandemic, the success of vaccination programs, and its impact on the Company's customers, independent dealers, distributors, and suppliers. While the Company's manufacturing operations were temporarily suspended and subsequently resumed in 2020, COVID-19 pandemic related impacts and disruptions could occur in the future. Future
21

impacts and disruptions could have an adverse effect on production, supply chains, distribution, and demand for the Company's products. Refer to Item 1A. Risk Factor s for additional information regarding the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company.
The Rewire
During 2020, the Company executed a set of actions, referred to as The Rewire. The Rewire was a critical overhaul of the Company's business to set the Company on a new course and provide a solid foundation to execute its 2021-2025 strategic plan, The Hardwire. Key elements of The Rewire included the following:
New operating model with reduced complexity and increased speed – The Company implemented a new operating model to eliminate duplication and complexity across its global operations resulting in fewer positions across the Company's global operations and annual ongoing savings as discussed further under “Restructuring Plan Costs and Savings”.
Reset global business and focus on high-potential markets – The Company plans to concentrate on approximately 50 markets primarily in North America, Europe and parts of Asia Pacific that represent a high percentage of the Company’s expected volume and growth potential.
Refined motorcycle line-up and high-impact product launches – The Company streamlined its planned product portfolio, changed its model year launch timing and go-to-market practices for maximum impact and success.
Growth through Parts & Accessories (P&A) and General Merchandise (GM) – P&A and GM are now organized around dedicated leaders with strategies poised for new growth as the Company invests in new channel strategies and better product assortments.
Protecting value – The Company is operating with a new approach to supply and inventory management, with a focus on a strong independent dealer network to better preserve the value and desirability of Harley-Davidson motorcycles for customers. The Company believes a strong network of profitable dealers is essential to delivering the most desirable Harley-Davidson experience. The Company reduced its global dealer network during 2020 and continues work to optimize its network of independent dealers to strengthen priority markets and provide and improve the customer experience.
The Hardwire(1)
The Hardwire is the Company's 2021-2025 strategic plan guided by its mission and vision, which the Company introduced on February 2, 2021. The plan targets long-term profitable growth through focused efforts that extend and strengthen the brand and drive value for all stakeholders. The Company's ambition is to enhance its position as the most desirable motorcycle brand in the world. Desirability is a motivating force driven by emotion. Refer to Item 1. Business for more details on The Hardwire strategic plan and financial targets.
Guidance(1)
On February 2, 2021, the Company announced the following guidance for 2021. During 2021, the first year of The Hardwire, the Company expects to continue to manage through the ongoing uncertainties brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on revenue and its supply chain. The Company's guidance for 2021 is as follows:
•Motorcycles segment revenue growth, compared to 2020, between 20% and 25%
•Motorcycles segment operating margin as a percent of revenue of 5% to 7%, which includes approximately $115 million of gross annual cost savings resulting from 2020 restructuring actions
•Approximately $20 million of restructuring expense
•Financial Services operating income growth, compared to 2020, between 10% and 15%
•Capital expenditures between $190 and $220 million
22

Restructuring Plan Costs and Savings(1)
During 2020, the Company initiated certain restructuring activities as part of The Rewire including a workforce reduction, the termination of certain current and future products, facility changes, optimizing its global independent dealer network, exiting certain international markets, and discontinuing its sales and manufacturing operations in India. These actions included restructuring expenses related to employee termination costs, contract termination costs and non-current asset adjustments. The workforce reduction resulted in the elimination of approximately 700 positions globally, including the termination of approximately 500 employees. In addition, the India action will result in the termination of approximately 70 employees. The Company incurred $130 million of restructuring expense in connection with these actions during 2020. The Company expects to incur total restructuring expenses for these actions of approximately $150 million, including approximately $20 million in 2021. The Company's total estimated restructuring expense is down from its previous estimate of $169 million. The Company continues to expect ongoing gross savings resulting from these restructuring activities of approximately $115 million. Refer to Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Company's restructuring expenses.

The Company reported operating income of $9.7 million in 2020 compared to $555.6 million in 2019. The Motorcycles segment incurred a $186.1 million operating loss in 2020, a decline from operating income of $289.6 million in 2019. Operating income from the Financial Services segment decreased $70.2 million, or 26.4%, compared to 2019. Refer to the Motorcycles and Related Products Segment and Financial Services Segment discussions for a more detailed analysis of the factors affecting operating results.
Other (expense) income in 2020 was impacted by lower non-operating income related to the Company's defined benefit plans. Investment income decreased in 2020 as compared to 2019 driven by lower income from investments in marketable securities.
The Company's effective income tax rate for 2020 was a 108.3% benefit compared to a 24.0% expense for 2019. The Company recorded an income tax benefit during 2020 due to a pre-tax loss and discrete income tax benefits related primarily to favorable tax audit settlements with taxing authorities during the year.
Diluted earnings per share was $0.01 in 2020 compared to $2.68 in 2019. Diluted earnings per share were adversely impacted by the decrease in net income, but benefited from lower diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding decreased from 157.8 million in 2019 to 153.9 million in 2020 driven by the Company's discretionary repurchases of common stock during 2019.

(a)Data source for retail sales figures shown above is new sales warranty and registration information provided by Harley-Davidson dealers and compiled by the Company. The Company must rely on information that its independent dealers supply concerning new retail sales, and the Company does not regularly verify the information that its independent dealers supply. This information is subject to revision.
During 2020, primarily in the first half of the year, retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic which resulted in the temporary closure of the Company's manufacturing facilities and the temporary closure of many of its independent dealerships.
Retail sales in the second half of 2020 were adversely impacted by lower retail inventory as the Company continued to aggressively manage the supply of its motorcycles into the independent dealer network under its new supply and inventory management approach. The Company's approach to supply and inventory management is focused on profitable and desirable volume aimed at helping drive retail pricing to preserve the value and desirability of Harley-Davidson motorcycles for customers. Under this approach, the Company will continue to aggressively manage the supply of new motorcycles into the independent dealer network. At the end of 2020, independent dealer retail inventory of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles was down approximately 64% or 24,000 units in the U.S. and approximately 59% worldwide compared to the end of 2019.
The Company's decision to reset its annual new model year launch from August to early in the first quarter also impacted retail sales in 2020. Previously, the Company launched its new model year motorcycles in the third quarter with new product available in U.S. markets in August, followed by international markets as product was distributed globally. While the Company believes the initial shift from August has adversely impacted year-over-year retail sales comparisons, it believes an early-year launch better aligns with the seasonality of retail demand allowing products a full riding season to sell and minimizes aged inventory and floor plan costs that might accumulate during the off season.
The Company's U.S. market share of new 601+cc motorcycles for 2020 was 42.1%, down 7.0 percentage points compared to 2019 (Source: Motorcycle Industry Council). The Company's U.S. market share fell on weaker retail sales performance relative to the industry, as well as stronger performance in segments outside of the Company's Touring and Cruiser segments.
The Company's European market share of new 601+cc motorcycles for 2020 was 7.7%, down 1.4 percentage points compared to 2019 (Source: Management Services Helwig Schmitt GmbH).

During 2020, Harley-Davidson motorcycle shipments were down 32.1% from 2019 reflecting the impact of the temporary suspension of the Company's global manufacturing operations and the temporary closure of independent dealers in the first half of 2020 resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the Company's new approach to supply and inventory management and the change in new model year launch timing adversely impacted wholesale shipments compared to 2019. The mix of Touring motorcycles shipped during 2020 decreased as a percent of total shipments while the mix of Cruiser and Sportster/Street motorcycles increased compared to 2019.

The estimated impacts of the significant factors affecting the comparability of revenue, cost of goods sold and gross profit from 2019 to 2020 were as follows (in millions):

| Revenue |  | Cost of Goods Sold |  | Gross Profit
2019 | $ | 4,573 |  |  | $ | 3,230 |  |  | $ | 1,343 |
Volume | (1,282) |  |  | (832) |  |  | (450) |

2020 | $ | 3,264 |  |  | $ | 2,436 |  |  | $ | 828 |

The following factors affected the comparability of net revenue, cost of goods sold and gross profit from 2019 to 2020:
•The decrease in volume was due to lower wholesale motorcycle shipments and lower P&A and General Merchandise sales.
•During 2020, revenue benefited from higher wholesale prices for motorcycles and lower sales incentives. The positive impact on revenue was partially offset by increased costs related to additional content added to motorcycles shipped in 2020 as compared to the prior year.
•Revenue was adversely impacted by weaker foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar. In addition, unfavorable net foreign currency losses associated with hedging and balance sheet remeasurements also reduced gross profit in 2020 as compared to the prior year.
•Changes in the shipment mix between motorcycle families had an adverse impact on gross profit during 2020 as compared to 2019. Additionally, unfavorable mix within P&A contributed to the impact.
•Manufacturing and other costs were adversely impacted by a higher fixed cost per unit on lower production volumes. This unfavorable impact was partially offset by lower incremental tariff costs and the absence of temporary inefficiencies related to the manufacturing restructuring activities in 2019. Incremental tariff costs (incremental European Union (EU) and China tariffs imposed beginning in 2018 on the Company's products shipped from the U.S. and incremental U.S. tariffs imposed beginning in 2018 on certain items imported from China) were $24.5 million in 2020 compared to $97.9 million in 2019. The Company began to wholesale motorcycles sourced from its Thailand facility in the EU during the second quarter of 2020 which reduced the cost of tariffs incurred through the majority of 2020.
26

Operating expenses were lower in 2020 compared to 2019 due primarily to lower employee related cost on reduced headcount, reduced incentive-based compensation cost and lower discretionary spending as the Company aggressively managed costs, including its efforts to reduce planned non-capital spending as part of its COVID-19 pandemic response and recovery actions. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in restructuring expense. Refer to Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Company's restructuring expenses.

Interest income was favorable in 2020 compared to 2019 due to a higher average retail yield, partially offset by lower average outstanding finance receivables. Other income decreased in 2020 compared to 2019 due in part to lower investment income. Interest expense increased due to higher average outstanding debt, partially offset by a lower cost of funds.
The provision for credit losses increased $47.3 million compared to 2019 primarily due to unfavorable economic conditions during 2020, partially offset by favorable 2020 retail credit loss performance. The provision for credit losses was up significantly as compared to 2019 driven by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the U.S. economy and the Company’s outlook on future economic conditions. The Company believes that there is significant uncertainty surrounding future economic outcomes. As such, the Company considered various third-party economic forecast scenarios and applied a probability-weighting to those economic forecast scenarios. At the end of 2020, the Company's outlook on economic conditions included a heavy emphasis on pessimistic economic trend assumptions as the COVID-19 pandemic continued to restrain the U.S. economy. The Company will continue to monitor economic trends and conditions. The Company's expectations surrounding its economic forecasts may change in future periods as additional information becomes available.
The 30-day delinquency rate for retail motorcycle loans at December 31, 2020 decreased to 3.18% from 4.39% at December 31, 2019. The improved delinquency rate was primarily driven by a high volume of short-term COVID-19 pandemic related extensions during the second quarter of 2020 and into the first part of the third quarter of 2020 on eligible retail loans to help customers get through financial difficulties associated with the pandemic. Through the remainder of 2020, the volume of payment extensions on eligible retail loans declined but has not yet returned to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels. The Company continues to grant payment extensions to customers in accordance with its policies. Annual losses on the Company's retail motorcycle loans were 1.38% during 2020 compared to 2.00% in 2019. The favorable retail credit loss performance was due to lower delinquencies driven by the COVID-19 pandemic related loan payment extensions earlier in the year as well as improved used motorcycle values at auction due to a limited supply of new and used motorcycles.
The allowance for credit losses at December 31, 2020 was determined in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13), a new accounting standard the Company adopted on January 1, 2020 that requires recognition of full lifetime expected credit losses upon initial recognition of a financial instrument, replacing the prior, incurred loss methodology. The Company adopted the new accounting standard using a modified retrospective approach. As a result, prior period results were not restated.
Operating expenses decreased $22.8 million compared to 2019 as the Company aggressively managed costs, including its efforts to reduce planned non-capital spending as part of its COVID-19 pandemic response and recovery actions.
27

Additionally, the Financial Services segment incurred restructuring expense of $10.9 million in 2020. Refer to Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Company's restructuring expenses.
Changes in the allowance for credit losses on finance receivables were as follows (in thousands):

| 2020 |  | 2019
Balance, beginning of period | $ | 198,581 |  |  | $ | 189,885 |
Cumulative effect of change in accounting(a) | 100,604 |  |  | — |

(a)On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and increased the allowance for loan loss through retained earnings, net of income taxes, to establish an allowance that represents expected lifetime credit losses on the finance receivable portfolios at date of adoption.
At December 31, 2020, the allowance for credit losses on finance receivables was $371.7 million for retail receivables and $19.2 million for wholesale receivables. At December 31, 2019, the allowance for credit losses on finance receivables was $188.5 million for retail receivables and $10.1 million for wholesale receivables.

Refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for a discussion of new accounting standards that will become effective for the Company in 2021 and 2022.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The Company’s financial statements are based on the selection and application of significant accounting policies, which require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. Management believes that the following are some of the more critical judgment areas in the application of accounting policies that currently affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates with the Audit and Finance Committee of the Company's Board of Directors.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Retail Finance Receivables – On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, which requires an entity to recognize expected lifetime losses on finance receivables upon origination. The allowance for credit losses on retail finance receivables as of December 31, 2020 represents the Company’s estimate of lifetime losses for its retail finance receivables. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company maintained an allowance for credit losses on retail finance receivables based on the Company’s estimate of probable losses inherent in the retail finance receivable portfolio as of the balance sheet date.
The retail portfolio primarily consists of a large number of small balance, homogeneous finance receivables. The Company performs a collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. For periods after January 1, 2020, the Company utilizes a vintage-based loss forecast methodology that includes decompositions for probability of default, exposure at default, attrition rate, and recovery balance rate. Reasonable and supportable economic forecasts for a two-year period are incorporated into the methodology to reflect the estimated impact of changes in future economic conditions, such as unemployment rates, household obligations or other relevant factors, over the expected life of the retail portfolio. For periods beyond the Company’s reasonable and supportable forecasts, the Company reverts to its average historical loss experience for a three-year period using a mean-reversion process. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or term as well as other relevant factors. For periods prior to January 1, 2020, the Company performed a periodic and
28

systematic collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. The Company utilized loss forecast models which considered a variety of factors including, but not limited to, historical loss trends, origination or vintage analysis, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, the value of the underlying collateral, recovery rates and current economic conditions.
Refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for further discussion regarding the Company’s allowance for credit losses on finance receivables.
Product Warranty and Recalls – Estimated warranty costs are recorded at the time of sale and are based on a combination of historical claim cost data and other known factors that may affect future warranty claims. The estimated costs associated with voluntary recalls are recorded when the liability is both probable and estimable. The accrued cost of a recall is based on an estimate of the cost to repair each affected motorcycle and the number of motorcycles expected to be repaired based on historical data concerning the percentage of affected customers that take advantage of recall offers. In the case of both warranty and recall costs, as actual experience becomes available it is used to update the accruals.
The factors affecting actual warranty and recall costs can be volatile. As a result, actual warranty claims experience and recall costs may differ from estimates, which could lead to material changes in the Company’s accrued warranty and recall costs. The Company’s warranty and recall liabilities are discussed further in Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements.
Pensions and Other Postretirement Healthcare Benefits – The Company has a defined benefit pension plan and postretirement healthcare benefit plans, which cover certain eligible employees and retirees of the Motorcycles segment. The Company also has unfunded supplemental employee retirement plan agreements (SERPA) with certain employees.
U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires that companies recognize in their consolidated balance sheets a liability for defined benefit pension and postretirement plans that are underfunded or an asset for defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans that are overfunded.
Pension, SERPA and postretirement healthcare obligations and costs are calculated through actuarial valuations. The valuation of benefit obligations and net periodic benefit costs relies on key assumptions including discount rates, mortality, long-term expected return on plan assets, future compensation and healthcare cost trend rates.
The Company determines its discount rate assumptions by referencing high-quality long-term bond rates that are matched to the duration of its benefit obligations. Based on this analysis, the Company decreased the weighted-average discount rate for pension and SERPA obligations from 3.49% as of December 31, 2019 to 2.62% as of December 31, 2020. The Company decreased the weighted-average discount rate for postretirement healthcare obligations from 3.26% as of December 31, 2019 to 2.11% as of December 31, 2020. The Company determines its healthcare trend assumption for the postretirement healthcare obligation by considering factors such as estimated healthcare inflation, the utilization of healthcare benefits and changes in the health of plan participants. Based on the Company’s assessment of this data as of December 31, 2020, the Company set its healthcare cost trend rate at 7.00% as of December 31, 2020. The Company expects the healthcare cost trend rate to reach its ultimate rate of 5.00% by 2029.(1) These assumption changes were reflected immediately in the benefit obligation and will be amortized into net periodic benefit costs over future periods.
Plan assets are measured at fair value and are subject to market volatility. In estimating the expected return on plan assets, the Company considers the historical returns on plan assets, adjusted to reflect the current view of the long-term investment market.
29

Changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans resulting from the difference between assumptions and actual results are initially recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and amortized to expense over future periods. Sensitivity to changes in major assumptions used in the pension and postretirement healthcare obligations and costs was as follows (in thousands):

| Amounts based on current assumptions |  | Impact of a 1% decrease in the discount rate |  | Impact of a 1% increase in the healthcare cost trend rate |  | Impact of a 1% decrease in the expected return on assets
2020 Net periodic benefit cost: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Pension and SERPA | $ | 33,016 |  |  | $ | 31,108 |  |  | n/a |  | $ | 20,164 |
Postretirement healthcare | $ | 5,393 |  |  | $ | (843) |  |  | $ | 435 |  |  | $ | 1,985 |
2020 Benefit obligations: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Pension and SERPA | $ | 2,390,435 |  |  | $ | 393,880 |  |  | n/a |  | n/a
Postretirement healthcare | $ | 315,245 |  |  | $ | 28,651 |  |  | $ | 8,295 |  |  | n/a

The amounts based on current assumptions above exclude the impact of settlements, curtailments and special early retirement benefits. This information should not be viewed as predictive of future amounts. The analysis of the impact of a 1% change in the table above does not take into account the cost related to special termination benefits. The calculations of pension, SERPA and postretirement healthcare obligations and costs are based on many factors in addition to those discussed here. This information should be considered in combination with the information provided in Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements.
Income Taxes – The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes (Topic 740). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and other loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company reviews its deferred income tax asset valuation allowances on a quarterly basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that a review is required. In determining the requirement for a valuation allowance, the historical and projected financial results of the legal entity or consolidated group recording the net deferred income tax asset is considered, along with any positive or negative evidence including tax law changes. Since future financial results and tax law may differ from previous estimates, periodic adjustments to the Company’s valuation allowances may be necessary.
The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. These tax laws and regulations are complex and significant judgment is required in determining the Company’s worldwide provision for income taxes and recording the related deferred tax assets and liabilities.
In the ordinary course of the Company’s business, there are transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Accruals for unrecognized tax benefits are provided for in accordance with the requirements of Topic 740. An unrecognized tax benefit represents the difference between the recognition of benefits related to items for income tax reporting purposes and financial reporting purposes. The unrecognized tax benefit is included within Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets. The Company has a liability for interest and penalties on exposure items, if applicable, which is recorded as a component of the overall income tax provision. The Company is regularly audited by tax authorities as a normal course of business. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that it has appropriate support for the positions taken on its tax returns and that its annual tax provision includes amounts sufficient to pay any assessments(1). Nonetheless, the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts accrued for each year.
Refer to Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for further discussion regarding the Company's income taxes.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, product and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to these items, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss. Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomes available for each matter. Refer to Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the Company's commitments and contingencies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's response to the COVID-19 pandemic included actions to preserve cash and secure additional liquidity. During 2020, the Company delivered on its previously disclosed plans to reduce planned capital and non-capital spending to preserve approximately $250 million of cash in 2020 (excludes the impact of cash restructuring charges). In addition, the Company suspended all discretionary share repurchases and reduced its cash dividend to $.02 per share in the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020. Going forward, the Company believes the Motorcycles segment operations will continue to be primarily funded through cash flows generated by operations.(1) The Company expects the Financial Services segment operations to continue to be funded with unsecured debt, unsecured commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities, committed unsecured bank facilities, asset-backed securitizations and deposits.(1)
Through The Hardwire, the Company expects its business model to generate cash that will allow it to invest in the business and brand, fund The Hardwire initiatives, and return value to shareholders.(1) The Company's cash allocation priorities are first to fund growth through The Hardwire initiatives, then to reward shareholders through dividends. The Company's Board of Directors approved a 2021 first quarter dividend of $.15 per share. At this time, significant discretionary share repurchases are not planned as the Company prioritizes cash for these top two priorities.(1)
The Company’s strategy is to maintain a minimum of twelve months of its projected liquidity needs through a combination of cash and cash equivalents and availability under its credit facilities. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and availability under its credit and conduit facilities at December 31, 2020 were as follows (in thousands):

Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 3,257,203 |
Availability under credit and conduit facilities: |
Credit facilities | 750,726 |
Asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facility(a) | 600,000 |
Asset-backed Canadian commercial paper conduit facility(a) | 55,980 |
| $ | 4,663,909 |

(a)Includes facilities expiring in the next 12 months which the Company expects to renew prior to expiration.(1)
To access the debt capital markets, the Company relies on credit rating agencies to assign short-term and long-term credit ratings. Generally, lower credit ratings result in higher borrowing costs and reduced access to debt capital markets. A credit rating agency may change or withdraw the Company’s ratings based on its assessment of the Company’s current and future ability to meet interest and principal repayment obligations. The Company’s short-term debt ratings affect its ability to issue unsecured commercial paper. The Company’s short- and long-term debt ratings as of December 31, 2020 were as follows:

| Short-Term |  | Long-Term |  | Outlook
Moody’s | P3 |  | Baa3 |  | Stable
Standard & Poor’s | A2 |  | BBB |  | Negative
Fitch | F2 |  | A- |  | Negative

The Company recognizes that it must continue to monitor and adjust its business to changes in the lending environment. The Company intends to continue with a diversified funding profile through a combination of short-term and long-term funding vehicles and to pursue a variety of sources to obtain cost-effective funding.(1) The Financial Services operations could be negatively affected by higher costs of funding and increased difficulty of raising, or potential unsuccessful efforts to raise, funding in the short-term and long-term capital markets.(1) These negative consequences could in turn adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations in various ways, including through higher costs of capital, reduced funds available through its Financial Services operations to provide loans to independent dealers and their retail customers, and dilution to existing shareholders through the use of alternative sources of capital.

Cash Flow Activity
Cash flow activities for the years ended December 31, were as follows (in thousands):

| 2020 |  | 2019 |  |
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 1,177,890 |  |  | $ | 868,272 |  |  |
Net cash used by investing activities | (66,783) |  |  | (508,126) |  |  |

Net increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $ | 2,503,802 |  |  | $ | (354,382) |  |  |

Operating Activities
The increase in operating cash flow in 2020 compared to 2019 was primarily due to favorable changes in working capital, led by a decline in accounts receivable and inventory levels as well as favorable cash flows from decreased wholesale financing activity due to lower loan originations.
The Company continues to expect that it will generate sufficient cash inflows from operations to fund its ongoing operating cash requirements including those related to existing contractual commitments. The Company's purchase orders for inventory used in manufacturing generally do not become firm commitments until 90 days prior to expected delivery. The Company's material contractual operating cash commitments at December 31, 2020 relate to leases, retirement plan obligations and income taxes. The Company's long-term lease obligations and future payments are discussed further in Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements. The Company’s expected future contributions and benefit payments related to its defined benefit retirement plans are discussed further in Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements. As described in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements, the Company has a liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $50.6 million and related accrued interest and penalties of $25.5 million as of December 31, 2020. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the period of cash settlement for either the liability for unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties.
Investing Activities
The Company’s most significant investing activities consist of capital expenditures and retail finance receivable originations and collections. Capital expenditures were $131.1 million and $181.4 million during 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company's 2021 plan includes estimated capital expenditures between $190 to $220 million, all of which the Company expects to fund with net cash flow generated by operations.(1)
Net cash outflows for finance receivables in 2020, which consisted primarily of retail finance receivables, were $390.4 million lower than in 2019 primarily due to lower retail motorcycle loan originations during 2020. The Company funds its finance receivables net lending activity through the issuance of debt, discussed in "Financing Activities" below.
Financing Activities
The Company’s financing activities consist primarily of dividend payments, share repurchases and debt activities.
The Company paid dividends of $0.44 per share totaling $68.1 million during 2020 and $1.50 per share totaling $237.2 million during 2019.
Cash outflows for share repurchases were $8.0 million and $296.5 million for 2020 and 2019, respectively. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company suspended discretionary share repurchases; as a result, there were no discretionary share repurchases in 2020. Discretionary share repurchases during the year ended December 31, 2019 were $286.7 million or 8.2 million shares. Share repurchases of common stock that employees surrendered to satisfy withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units were $8.0 million or 0.3 million shares and $9.8 million or 0.3 million shares during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, there were 18.2 million shares remaining on a board-approved share repurchase authorization.

Deposits – During 2020, HDFS began offering brokered certificates of deposit to customers indirectly through contractual arrangements with third-party banks and/or securities brokerage firms through its bank subsidiary. At December 31, 2020, the Company had $80.0 million, net of fees, of short-term interest-bearing brokered certificates of deposit outstanding. Each separate brokered certificate of deposit is issued under a master certificate and, as such, all outstanding brokered certificates of deposit are considered below the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance coverage limits.
Credit Facilities – In April 2020, the Company entered into a $707.5 million five-year credit facility to replace the $765.0 million five-year credit facility that was due to mature in April 2021. The new five-year credit facility matures in April 2025. The Company also amended its $780.0 million five-year credit facility to $707.5 million with no change to the maturity date of April 2023. The Company also had a $195.0 million 364-day credit facility which was due to mature in May 2020. In April 2020, the Company extended the maturity date of this credit facility to August 2020; however, this facility was terminated on May 18, 2020. At the time of termination, there were no outstanding borrowings under this 364-day credit facility. On June 1, 2020, the Company entered into a new $350.0 million 364-day credit facility, and on June 4, 2020, the Company borrowed $150.0 million under this facility. On December 9, 2020, the Company amended this facility to allow for the early repayment of the $150.0 million borrowing, which was repaid in full on this date, along with the related interest. The five-year credit facilities (together, the Global Credit Facilities), as well as the $350.0 million 364-day credit facility, bear interest at variable rates, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on certain criteria, such as credit ratings. The Global Credit Facilities and the $350.0 million 364-day credit facility also require the Company to pay a fee based on the average daily unused portion of the aggregate commitments. The Global Credit Facilities are committed facilities primarily used to support the Company's unsecured commercial paper program.
Unsecured Commercial Paper – Subject to limitations, the Company could issue unsecured commercial paper of up to $1.42 billion as of December 31, 2020 supported by the Global Credit Facilities. Outstanding unsecured commercial paper may not exceed the unused portion of the Global Credit Facilities. Maturities may range up to 365 days from the issuance date. The Company intends to repay unsecured commercial paper as it matures with additional unsecured commercial paper or through other means, such as borrowing under the Global Credit Facilities or the $350.0 million 364-day credit facility, borrowing under its asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facilities or through the use of operating cash flow and cash on hand.(1)

The fixed-rate U.S. dollar-denominated medium-term notes provide for semi-annual interest payments, the fixed-rate foreign currency-denominated medium-term notes provide for annual interest payments, and the floating-rate medium-term notes provide for quarterly interest payments. Principal on the medium-term notes is due at maturity. Unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs on the medium-term notes reduced the outstanding balance by $15.4 million and $12.8 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Senior Notes – In July 2015, the Company issued $750.0 million of unsecured senior notes in an underwritten offering. The senior notes provide for semi-annual interest payments and principal due at maturity. $450.0 million of the senior notes mature in July 2025 and have an interest rate of 3.50%, and $300.0 million of the senior notes mature in July 2045 and have an interest rate of 4.625%. The Company used the proceeds from the debt to repurchase shares of its common stock in 2015.
On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Canadian Commercial Paper Conduit Facility – The Company has a revolving facility agreement (Canadian Conduit) with a Canadian bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduit. Under the agreement, the Canadian Conduit is contractually committed, at the Company's option, to purchase from the Company eligible Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables for proceeds up to C$220.0 million. The transferred assets are restricted as collateral for the payment of the associated debt. The terms for this facility provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing market interest rates plus a specified margin. The Canadian Conduit also provides for a program fee and an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment of C$220.0 million. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the Canadian Conduit, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement between the Company and the lenders, as of December 31, 2020, the Canadian Conduit has an expiration date of June 25, 2021.
In 2020, the Company transferred $77.9 million of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit for proceeds of $61.6 million. In 2019, the Company transferred $28.2 million of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit for proceeds of $23.4 million.
On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed U.S. Commercial Paper Conduit Facilities VIE – Until November 25, 2020, the Company had two separate agreements with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits, a $300.0 million revolving facility agreement and a $600.0 million revolving facility agreement (together, the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities). On November 25, 2020, the Company amended each revolving facility agreement by consolidating the two agreements into one $900.0 million revolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. Under the revolving facility agreement, the Company may transfer U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE, which in turn may issue debt to those third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. In addition to the $900.0 million aggregate commitment, the agreement allows for additional borrowings, at the lender’s discretion, of up to $300.0 million. Availability under the $900.0 million revolving facility (the U.S. Conduit Facility) is based on, among other things, the amount of eligible U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables held by the SPE as collateral.
34

In 2020, the Company transferred $195.3 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $163.6 million of debt under the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities. In 2019, the Company transferred $174.4 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $154.6 million of debt under the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities.
The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing commercial paper rates if funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper. If not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper, the terms of the interest are based on LIBOR. In each of these cases, a program fee is assessed based on the outstanding principal. The U.S. Conduit Facility also provides for an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment. When calculating the unused fee, the aggregate commitment does not include any unused portion of the $300.0 million additional borrowings allowed. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the U.S. Conduit Facility, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables held by the SPE is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, as of December 31, 2020, the U.S. Conduit Facility has an expiration date of November 19, 2021.
Asset-Backed Securitization VIEs – For all of its asset-backed securitization transactions, the Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to separate VIEs, which in turn issue secured notes with various maturities and interest rates to investors. All of the notes held by the VIEs are secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. The U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitization transactions are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company's creditors until the associated debt and other obligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the VIEs are used only to support the asset-backed securitizations.
The accounting treatment for asset-backed securitizations depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE. The Company's current outstanding asset-backed securitizations do not meet the criteria to be accounted for as a sale because, in addition to retaining servicing rights, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. These transactions are treated as secured borrowings. As secured borrowings, the retail motorcycle finance receivables remain on the balance sheet with a corresponding obligation reflected as debt. There is no amortization schedule for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes have various contractual maturities ranging from 2022 to 2028.
In 2020, the Company transferred $2.42 billion of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to four separate SPEs which, in turn, issued $2.08 billion, or $2.06 billion net of discounts and issuance costs, of secured notes through four separate on-balance-sheet asset-backed securitization transactions. In 2019, the Company transferred $1.12 billion of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to two separate SPEs which, in turn, issued $1.03 billion, or $1.02 billion net of discount and issuance costs, of secured notes through two separate on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions.
Support Agreement – The Company has a support agreement with HDFS whereby, if required, the Company agrees to provide HDFS with financial support to maintain HDFS’ fixed-charge coverage at 1.25 and minimum net worth of $40.0 million. Support may be provided at the Company’s option as capital contributions or loans. Accordingly, certain debt covenants may restrict the Company’s ability to withdraw funds from HDFS outside the normal course of business. No amount has ever been provided to HDFS under the support agreement.
Operating and Financial Covenants – HDFS and the Company are subject to various operating and financial covenants related to the credit facilities and various operating covenants under the medium-term and senior notes and the U.S. and Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. The more significant covenants are described below.
The operating covenants limit the Company’s and HDFS’ ability to:
•Assume or incur certain liens;
•Participate in certain mergers or consolidations; and
•Purchase or hold margin stock.
35

Under the current financial covenants of the Global Credit Facilities, the ratio of HDFS’ consolidated debt, excluding secured debt, to HDFS’ consolidated allowance for credit losses on finance receivables plus HDFS' consolidated shareholders' equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL), cannot exceed 10.0 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. In addition, the ratio of the Company's consolidated debt to the Company's consolidated debt and consolidated shareholders’ equity (where the Company's consolidated debt in each case excludes that of HDFS and its subsidiaries, and the Company's consolidated shareholders’ equity excluding AOCL), cannot exceed 0.7 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. No financial covenants are required under the medium-term and senior notes or the U.S. or Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities.
At December 31, 2020 and 2019, HDFS and the Company remained in compliance with all of the then existing covenants.

The Company’s operations, demand for its products, and its liquidity could be adversely impacted by work stoppages, facility closures, strikes, natural causes, widespread infectious disease, terrorism, or other factors. Other factors are described in Item 1A. Risk Factors of this report. Many of these risk factors are impacted by the current changing capital, credit and retail markets and the Company's ability to manage through inconsistent economic conditions.
The Company’s ability to sell its motorcycles and related products and services and to meet its financial expectations also depends on the ability of the Company’s independent dealers to sell its motorcycles and related products and services to retail customers. The Company depends on the capability and financial capacity of its independent dealers to develop and implement effective retail sales plans to create demand for the motorcycles and related products and services they purchase from the Company. In addition, the Company’s independent dealers and distributors may experience difficulties in operating their businesses and selling Harley-Davidson motorcycles and related products and services as a result of weather, economic conditions, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, or other factors.
In recent years, HDFS has experienced historically low levels of retail credit losses, but there is no assurance that this will continue. The Company believes that HDFS' retail credit losses may increase over time due to changing consumer credit behavior and HDFS' efforts to increase prudently structured loan approvals to sub-prime borrowers, as well as actions that the Company has taken and could take that impact motorcycle values.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates. To reduce such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. Sensitivity analysis is used to manage and monitor foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate risks. Further disclosure relating to the fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments is included in Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements.
Motorcycles and Related Products Segment
The Company sells its motorcycles and related products internationally and in most markets those sales are made in the foreign country’s local currency. As a result, the Motorcycles segment operating results are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies. The Company’s most significant foreign currency exchange rate risk resulting from the sale of motorcycles and related products relates to the Euro, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Brazilian real, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Chinese yuan, Indian rupee, Singapore dollar, Thai baht and Pound sterling. The Company utilizes foreign currency contracts to mitigate the effect of certain currencies' fluctuations on Motorcycles segment operating results. The foreign currency contracts are entered into with banks and allow the Company to exchange currencies at a future date, based on a fixed exchange rate. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the notional U.S. dollar value of outstanding foreign currency contracts was $779.4 million and $654.5 million, respectively. The Company estimates that a uniform 10% weakening in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the currencies underlying these contracts would result in a decrease in the fair value of the contracts of approximately $80.2 million and $65.5 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
The Company purchases commodities for use in the production of motorcycles. As a result, Motorcycles segment operating income is affected by changes in commodity prices. The Company uses derivative financial instruments on a limited basis to hedge the prices of certain commodities. At December 31, 2020, the notional value of these instruments was $7.5 million and the fair value was a net asset of $0.8 million. As of December 31, 2019, the notional value of these instruments was $8.9 million and the fair value was a net liability of $0.1 million. The potential decrease in fair value of these contracts from a 10% adverse change in the underlying commodity prices would not be significant.
37

Financial Services Segment
The Company has interest rate sensitive financial instruments including finance receivables, debt and interest rate derivative financial instruments. As a result, Financial Services operating income is affected by changes in interest rates. The Company utilizes interest rate swaps and caps to reduce the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on its floating-rate medium-term notes and its asset-backed securitization transactions, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, HDFS had interest rate swaps outstanding with a notional value of $450.0 million and interest rate caps outstanding with a notional value of $978.1 million. As of December 31, 2019, HDFS had interest rate swaps outstanding with a notional value of $900.0 million and interest rate caps with a notional value of $376.0 million. As of December 31, 2020, HDFS estimates that a 10% decrease in interest rates would not result in a material change to the fair value of the interest rate swap and cap agreements. As of December 31, 2019, HDFS estimated that a 10% decrease in interest rates would result in a decrease in the fair value of the interest rate swap and cap agreements of $10.2 million.
HDFS has also has short-term commercial paper and debt issued through the commercial paper conduit facilities that is subject to changes in interest rates which it does not hedge. The Company estimates that a one-percentage point increase in the interest rate on commercial paper and debt issued through the commercial paper conduit facilities would increase Financial Services interest expense in 2021 by approximately $15.5 mi llion. This analysis does not consider the effects of the reduced level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, the Company may take actions to mitigate its exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, the sensitivity analysis does not account for these impacts.
The Company has foreign denominated medium-term notes. As a result, Financial Services operating income is affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies and interest rates. At December 31, 2020, this exposure related to the Euro. The Company utilizes cross-currency swaps to mitigate the effect of the foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations related to foreign denominated debt. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company has cross-currency swaps outstanding with a notional value of $1.4 billion and $660.8 million, respectively. The Company estimates that a 10% adverse change in the underlying foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate would result in a $170.6 million and $76.2 million decrease in the fair value of the swap agreements as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The amount as of December 31, 2019 reflects a revision to the amount included in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definitions and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

| Allowance for Credit Losses - Retail Finance Receivables
Description of the Matter | The Company’s retail receivable portfolio totaled $6.3 billion as of December 31, 2020, and the associated allowance for credit losses (ACL) was $371.7 million. As discussed above and in Notes 1 and 7 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the Company to recognize expected lifetime losses on finance receivables held at amortized cost, upon origination. Upon adoption, the Company increased its ACL by $100.6 million and reduced retained earnings net, of deferred taxes, by $78.2 million through a cumulative-effect adjustment. The Company utilizes a vintage-based loss forecast methodology to measure the expected retail finance receivables credit losses. Economic forecasts for a two-year period are incorporated into the methodology to reflect the estimated impact of changes in future economic conditions. To establish the economic forecasts, management considers various third-party economic forecast scenarios and applies a probability-weighting to those economic forecast scenarios. For periods beyond the Company’s incorporated economic forecasts, the Company reverts to its average historical loss experience using a mean-reversion process over a three-year period. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or term as well as other relevant factors. Auditing management’s estimate of the ACL for retail finance receivables was especially challenging due to the complexity of management’s retail receivables loss forecasting models and subjective management assumptions applied in determining the probability-weighting of its economic forecasts.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit | We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls over the ACL process. These procedures included testing controls over management’s review of key assumptions such as the economic forecasts, the development and operation of the ACL models, and the completeness and accuracy of key inputs and assumptions used in the ACL models. To test the ACL, our audit procedures included, among others, evaluating the Company’s loss forecasting models, the economic forecasts prepared by management, and the underlying data used in the models. We involved our internal specialists in evaluating the model methodology and model performance and tested key modeling assumptions. We evaluated management’s judgments in probability-weighting different third-party economic forecast scenarios and compared management’s economic forecasts to other available information for contrary or corroborative evidence. Additionally, we tested the accuracy of data utilized within the models and re-performed the model calculations for a sample of loans. In addition, we reviewed the Company’s historical loss statistics, peer information, and subsequent events and considered whether this information corroborates or contradicts management’s measurement of the ACL.

| Restructuring activities
Description of the Matter | The Company recorded $130.0 million of restructuring expenses during the year ended December 31, 2020. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, restructuring activities included a workforce reduction, the termination of certain products, facility changes, optimizing the global independent dealer network, exiting certain international markets, and discontinuing the sales and manufacturing operations in India. These actions resulted in restructuring expenses that included employee termination costs, contract termination costs and non-current asset adjustments. The Company’s liability for accrued restructuring expenses was $23.9 million as of December 31, 2020. Auditing the Company’s restructuring expenses was complex due to the comprehensive scope of the different actions taken which required management to assess the timing of recognition of the costs associated with these actions. In addition, determining the classification and disclosure of restructuring expenses in the consolidated financial statement required the Company to maintain detailed record-keeping of the various restructuring activities.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit | We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls over the restructuring process. These procedures included testing controls over authorization of the significant restructuring actions, management’s review and assessment of the accounting treatment and timing of recognition for significant actions, and the Company’s review of the presentation and disclosure of restructuring activities. To test the restructuring costs and year-end restructuring liability, our audit procedures included, among others, gaining an understanding of approved restructuring actions and evaluating the accounting treatment and timing of recognition for significant actions. In addition, we tested the Company’s computation of restructuring expenses and year-end liability, reviewed a sample of contracts and settlement agreements, and tested cash payments made related to the restructuring actions. We also tested the presentation and disclosure of the restructuring expenses in the consolidated financial statements.

HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Harley-Davidson, Inc. and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned (the Company), including the accounts of the group of companies referred to as Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) and Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS). In addition, certain variable interest entities (VIEs) related to secured financing are consolidated as the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and material intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
The Company operates in two reportable segments: Motorcycles and Related Products (Motorcycles) and Financial Services.
Substantially all of the Company’s international subsidiaries use their respective local currency as their functional currency. Assets and liabilities of international subsidiaries have been translated at period-end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses have been translated using average exchange rates for the period. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is different from an entity's functional currency are remeasured from the transactional currency to the entity's functional currency on a monthly basis. The aggregate transaction gain/(loss) resulting from foreign currency remeasurements was $3.8 million, $18.0 million, and $(19.9) million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
During the first quarter of 2020, the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) spread throughout the world, and it was recognized as a pandemic in March 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has restricted the level of economic activity in the U.S. and around the world and the full extent of its impact is not yet known. The Company's financial results for the period ending December 31, 2020 reflect the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the most significant of which relates to the allowance for credit losses as discussed in Note 7.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable, net – The Company’s motorcycles and related products are sold to independent dealers outside the U.S. and Canada generally on open account and the resulting receivables are included in Accounts receivable, net on the Consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for doubtful accounts deducted from total accounts receivable was $3.7 million and $4.9 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company’s evaluation of the allowance for doubtful accounts includes a review to identify non-performing accounts which are evaluated individually. The remaining accounts receivable balances are evaluated in the aggregate based on an aging analysis. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on factors including past loss experience, the value of collateral, and if applicable, reasonable and supportable economic forecasts. Accounts receivable are written down once management determines that the specific customer does not have the ability to repay the balance in full. The Company’s sales of motorcycles and related products in the U.S. and Canada are financed through HDFS by the purchasing independent dealers and the related receivables are included in Finance receivables, net on the Consolidated balance sheets.
Inventories, net – Substantially all inventories located in the U.S. are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. Other inventories totaling $221.9 million and $326.5 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
Repossessed Inventory – Repossessed inventory representing recovered collateral on impaired finance receivables is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value through a fair value remeasurement. In the period during which the collateral is repossessed, the related finance receivable is adjusted to the fair value of the collateral through a change to the allowance for credit losses and reclassified to repossessed inventory, included in Other current assets on the Consolidated balance sheets.
50

Property, Plant and Equipment, net – Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is determined using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives of each class of property, plant and equipment generally consist of 30 years for buildings, 7 years for building and land improvements, 3 to 10 years for machinery and equipment, and 3 to 7 years for software. Accelerated methods of depreciation are used for income tax purposes.
Goodwill – Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net assets purchased. Goodwill is tested for impairment, based on financial data related to the reporting unit to which it has been assigned, at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered impaired and an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, limited to the total goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. During 2020 and 2019, the Company tested its goodwill balances for impairment and no adjustments were recorded to goodwill as a result of those reviews.
Long-lived Assets – The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used when events and circumstances warrant such review. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset for assets to be held and used. The Company also reviews the useful life of its long-lived assets when events and circumstances indicate that the actual useful life may be shorter than originally estimated. In the event that the actual useful life is deemed to be shorter than the original useful life, depreciation is adjusted prospectively so that the remaining book value is depreciated over the revised useful life. Refer to Note 3 for additional details surrounding the Company's restructuring activities impacting long-lived assets.
Asset groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, and a loss is recognized for any initial adjustment required to reduce the carrying amount to the fair value less cost to sell in the period the held for sale criteria are met. The fair value less cost to sell must be assessed each reporting period that the asset group remains classified as held for sale. Gains or losses not previously recognized resulting from the sale of an asset group will be recognized on the date of sale.
Research and Development Expenses – Expenditures for research activities relating to product development and improvements are charged against income as incurred and included within Selling, administrative and engineering expense on the Consolidated statements of operations. Research and development expenses were $202.4 million, $216.5 million and $191.6 million for 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Advertising Costs – The Company expenses the production cost of advertising the first time the advertising takes place within Selling, administrative and engineering expense. Advertising costs relate to the Company’s efforts to promote its products and brands through the use of media and other means. During 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred $134.6 million, $171.4 million and $144.3 million in advertising costs, respectively.
Shipping and Handling Costs – The Company classifies shipping and handling costs as a component of Motorcycles and Related Products cost of goods sold.
New Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Recently Adopted
In July 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). ASU 2016-13 changes how a company recognizes expected credit losses on financial instruments carried at amortized cost basis, by requiring recognition of the full lifetime expected credit losses upon initial recognition of the financial instrument. ASU 2016-13 replaced the incurred loss methodology. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach for financial instruments measured at amortized cost.
51

On January 1, 2020, the Company remeasured the allowance for credit losses on financial instruments under the new accounting standard. The difference was recorded as a cumulative effect adjustment to Retained earnings, net of income taxes. The initial adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not impact the Company’s Consolidated statements of operations. The effect of adopting ASU 2016-13 on the Company’s Consolidated balance sheets was as follows (in thousands):

Financial Statement Comparability to Prior Periods – Beginning in 2020, under ASU 2016-13, the Company recognizes full lifetime expected credit losses upon initial recognition of the associated financial instrument carried at amortized cost basis. Under ASU 2016-13, changes in the allowance for credit losses and the impact on the provision for credit losses will be affected by the size and composition of the Company's finance receivables portfolios, economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and other appropriate factors at each reporting period. Prior periods have not been restated and will continue to be reported in accordance with the previously applicable U.S. GAAP, which generally required that a credit loss be incurred before it was recognized. As such, prior periods will not be comparable to the current period. Additional information on the Company’s finance receivables is discussed further in Note 7.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (ASU 2017-04). ASU 2017-04 simplified the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill. Rather, the goodwill impairment is calculated by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value, and an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, limited to the total goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. All reporting units apply the same impairment test under the new standard. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 on January 1, 2020 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 did not have an effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (ASU 2018-13). ASU 2018-13 amended ASC 820 to eliminate, modify, and add certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The amendments were required to be applied retrospectively, with the exception of a few disclosure additions, which were to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company adopted ASC 2018-13 on January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact on the Company's disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) (ASU 2018-15). The new guidance requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the existing internal-use software guidance to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The Company adopted ASU 2018-15 on January 1, 2020 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2018-15 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12). The new guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The new guidance also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2019-12 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

2. Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or service to a customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the goods or services transferred. Taxes that are collected from a customer concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

Motorcycles and Related Products
Motorcycles, Parts & Accessories, and General Merchandise – Revenues from the sale of motorcycles, Parts & Accessories (P&A), and General Merchandise are recorded when control is transferred to the customer, generally at the time of shipment. The sale of products to independent dealers outside the U.S. and Canada is generally on open account with terms that approximate 30-120 days and the resulting receivables are included in Accounts receivable, net on the Consolidated balance sheets. The sale of products to independent dealers in the U.S. and Canada is financed through HDFS and the related receivables are included in Finance receivables, net on the Consolidated balance sheets.
The Company offers sales incentive programs to independent dealers and retail customers designed to promote the sale of motorcycles, P&A, and General Merchandise. The Company estimates its variable consideration sold under its sales incentive programs using the expected value method. The Company accounts for consideration payable to a customer as part of its sales incentives as a reduction of revenue, which is accrued at the later of the date the related sale is recorded or the date the incentive program is both approved and communicated.
The Company offers the right to return eligible P&A and General Merchandise. When the Company offers a right to return, it estimates returns based on an analysis of historical trends and records revenue on the initial sale only in the amount that it expects to be entitled. The remaining consideration is deferred in a refund liability account. The refund liability is remeasured for changes in the estimate at each reporting date with a corresponding adjustment to revenue.
Variable consideration related to sales incentives and rights to return is adjusted at the earliest of when the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive changes or the consideration becomes fixed. Adjustments for variable consideration related to previously recognized sales were not material during 2020 and 2019.
Shipping and handling costs associated with freight after control of a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as fulfillment costs. The Company accrues for the shipping and handling in the same period that the related revenue is recognized.
The Company offers standard, limited warranties on its motorcycles and P&A. These warranties provide assurance that the product will function as expected and are not separate performance obligations. The Company accounts for estimated warranty costs as a liability when control of the product transfers to the customer.
53

Licensing – The Company licenses the Harley-Davidson name and other trademarks owned by the Company and collects royalties from its licensees. The trademark licenses are considered symbolic intellectual property, which grant the licensees a right to access the Company’s intellectual property. The Company satisfies its performance obligation over the license period, as the Company fulfills its promise to grant the licensees rights to use and benefit from the intellectual property as well as maintain the intellectual property.
Payment is typically due within thirty days of the end of each quarter for the royalties earned in that quarter. Revenue, in the form of sales-based royalties, is recognized when the licensees’ subsequent sales occur. The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to recognize licensing revenues in the amount that the Company has the right to invoice because the royalties due each period correspond directly with the value of the Company’s performance to date. Revenue will be recognized over the remaining contract terms which range up to 2 years.
Other – Other revenue consists primarily of revenue from Harley Owners Group® (H.O.G.) membership sales, motorcycle rental commissions, museum admissions and events, and other miscellaneous products and services.
Financial Services
Interest Income – Interest income on finance receivables is recorded as earned and is based on the average outstanding daily balance for wholesale and retail receivables. Accrued and uncollected interest is classified with Finance receivables, net. Certain loan origination costs related to finance receivables, including payments made to dealers for certain retail loans, are deferred and recorded within Finance receivables, net and amortized over the life of the contract.
Other Income – Other income consists primarily of insurance and licensing revenues. HDFS works with certain unaffiliated insurance companies to offer motorcycle insurance and protection products through most Harley-Davidson independent dealers in the U.S. and Canada. HDFS also works with third-party financial institutions that issue credit cards or offer other financial products bearing the Harley-Davidson brand in the U.S. and internationally. For many of these contracts, the Company grants temporary rights to use the licensed trademarks owned by the Company and collects royalties from its customers in connection with sales of their products. The trademark licenses are considered symbolic intellectual property, which grant the customer a right to access the intellectual property. The Company satisfies its performance obligation over the license period, as it fulfills its promise to grant the customer rights to use and benefit from the intellectual property as well as maintain the intellectual property. Royalty and profit sharing amounts are received either quarterly or per annum, based upon the contract. Revenue, in the form of sales-based royalties, is recognized when the customers’ subsequent sales occur. Revenue will be recognized over the remaining contract terms which range up to 5 years. The Company is the primary obligor for certain other insurance related contracts and, as a result, revenue is recognized over the life of the contract as the Company fulfills its performance obligation.
Contract Liabilities
The Company maintains certain deferred revenue balances related to payments received at contract inception in advance of the Company’s performance under the contract and generally relates to the sale of H.O.G. memberships and extended service plan contracts. Deferred revenue is recognized as revenue as the Company performs under the contract. Deferred revenue, included in Accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets, was as follows as of December 31, (in thousands):

| 2020 |  | 2019
Balance, beginning of period | $ | 29,745 |  |  | $ | 29,055 |
Balance, end of period | 36,614 |  |  | 29,745 |

Previously deferred revenue recognized as revenue in 2020 and 2019 was $19.7 million and $26.3 million, respectively. The Company expects to recognize approximately $15.4 million of the remaining unearned revenue in 2021 and $21.2 million thereafter.
3. Restructuring Activities
Expenses associated with the Company's restructuring activities are included in Restructuring expense on the Consolidated statements of operations.
2020 Restructuring Activities – In 2020, the Company initiated restructuring activities including a workforce reduction, the termination of certain current and future products, facility changes, optimizing its global independent dealer network, exiting certain international markets, and discontinuing its sales and manufacturing operations in India. The workforce reduction resulted in the termination of approximately 500 employees. In addition, the India action will result in the termination of approximately 70 employees.
54

Restructuring expenses incurred related to the 2020 restructuring activities were $130.0 million, including $119.1 million in the Motorcycles segment and $10.9 million in the Financial Services segment. The Company expects remaining restructuring expenses related to the 2020 restructuring activities to be approximately $20 million, which is expected to be recognized in 2021 when the actions are completed. The total estimated restructuring activities of approximately $150 million includes approximately $139 million and $11 million expected to be in incurred in the Motorcycles and Financial Services segments, respectively. Total expected restructuring expenses under the 2020 restructuring activities include approximately $30 million related to employee termination benefits, $90 million related to contract termination and other costs and $30 million related to non-current asset adjustments, including accelerated depreciation and other adjustments to the carrying value of non-current assets.

2018 Restructuring Activities – In 2018, the Company initiated a plan to further improve its manufacturing operations and cost structure by commencing a multi-year manufacturing optimization plan which includes the consolidation of its motorcycle assembly plant in Kansas City, Missouri, into its plant in York, Pennsylvania, and the closure of its wheel operations in Adelaide, Australia (Manufacturing Optimization Plan). The consolidation of operations resulted in the elimination of approximately 800 jobs at the Kansas City facility and the addition of approximately 450 jobs at the York facility through 2019. The Adelaide facility closure resulted in the elimination of approximately 90 jobs. Through December 31, 2019 the Motorcycles segment incurred cumulative restructuring expenses of $122.2 million and other costs related to temporary inefficiencies of $23.2 million under the Manufacturing Optimization Plan. The Manufacturing Optimization Plan was completed in 2019.
In 2018, the Company initiated a reorganization of its workforce (Reorganization Plan), which was completed in 2019. As a result, approximately 70 employees left the Company on an involuntary basis.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in Income tax (benefit) provision. Changes in the Company’s gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, were as follows (in thousands):

| 2020 |  | 2019
Unrecognized tax benefits, beginning of period | $ | 60,112 |  |  | $ | 61,411 |
Increase in unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken in a prior period | 1,649 |  |  | 1,067 |
Decrease in unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken in a prior period | (12,560) |  |  | (5,608) |

Settlements with taxing authorities | (1,696) |  |  | (1,009) |
Unrecognized tax benefits, end of period | $ | 50,597 |  |  | $ | 60,112 |

The amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate was $43.8 million and $53.1 million, respectively.
The total gross amount of benefit related to interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits recognized during 2020, 2019 and 2018 in the Consolidated statements of operations was $2.1 million, $0.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively.
The total gross amount of interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits recognized at December 31, 2020 and 2019 in the Consolidated balance sheets was $25.5 million and $27.6 million, respectively.
The Company does not expect a significant increase or decrease to the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits related to continuing operations during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. However, the Company is under regular audit by tax authorities. The Company believes that it has appropriate support for the positions taken on its tax returns and that its annual tax provision includes amounts sufficient to pay any assessments.

7. Finance Receivables
Finance receivables include both retail and wholesale finance receivables, including amounts held by consolidated VIEs. Finance receivables are recorded in the financial statements at amortized cost net of an allowance for credit losses.
The Company provides retail financial services to customers of its independent dealers in the U.S. and Canada. The origination of retail loans is a separate and distinct transaction between the Company and the retail customer, unrelated to the Company’s sale of product to its dealers. Retail finance receivables consist of secured promissory notes and secured installment sales contracts and are primarily related to independent dealer sales of motorcycles to retail customers. The Company holds either titles or liens on titles to vehicles financed by promissory notes and installment sales contracts. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, approximately 11% of gross outstanding retail finance receivables were originated in Texas; there were no other states that accounted for more than 10% of gross outstanding retail finance receivables.
The Company offers wholesale financing to its independent dealers in the U.S. and Canada. Wholesale finance receivables are related primarily to the Company's sale of motorcycles and related parts and accessories to dealers. Wholesale loans to dealers are generally secured by financed inventory or property.

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, which requires an entity to recognize expected lifetime losses on finance receivables upon origination. The allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2020 represents the Company’s estimate of lifetime losses for its finance receivables. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company maintained an allowance for credit losses based on the Company’s estimate of probable losses inherent in its finance receivables as of the balance sheet date.
Under ASU 2016-13, the Company’s finance receivables are reported at amortized cost, net of the allowance for credit losses. Amortized cost includes the principal outstanding, accrued interest, and deferred loan fees and costs. Based on differences in the nature of the finance receivables and the underlying methodology for calculating the allowance for loan losses, the Company segments its finance receivables into the retail and wholesale portfolios. The Company further disaggregates each portfolio by credit quality indicators. As the credit risk varies between the retail and wholesale portfolios, the Company utilizes different credit quality indicators for each portfolio. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company’s investment in finance receivables included the same components as the amortized cost under the new accounting guidance.
The retail portfolio primarily consists of a large number of small balance, homogeneous finance receivables. The Company performs a collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. For periods after January 1, 2020, the Company utilizes a vintage-based loss forecast methodology that includes decompositions for probability of default, exposure at default, attrition rate, and recovery balance rate. Reasonable and supportable economic forecasts for a two-year period are incorporated into the methodology to reflect the estimated impact of changes in future economic conditions, such as unemployment rates, household obligations or other relevant factors, over the two-year reasonable and supportable period. For periods beyond the Company’s reasonable and supportable forecasts, the Company reverts to its average historical loss experience using a mean-reversion process over a three-year period. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or term as well as other relevant factors. For periods prior to January 1, 2020, the Company performed a periodic and systematic collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. The Company utilized
62

loss forecast models which considered a variety of factors including, but not limited to, historical loss trends, origination or vintage analysis, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, the value of the underlying collateral, recovery rates, and current economic conditions.
The wholesale portfolio is primarily composed of large balance, non-homogeneous loans. The Company’s evaluation for the wholesale allowance for credit losses is first based on a loan-by-loan review to determine whether the loans share similar risk characteristics. The Company individually evaluates loans that do not share risk characteristics. Loans identified as those for which foreclosure is probable are classified as Non-Performing, and a specific allowance for credit losses is established when appropriate. The specific allowance is determined based on the amortized cost of the related finance receivable and the estimated fair value of the collateral, less selling costs and the cash that the Company expects to receive. Finance receivables in the wholesale portfolio not individually assessed are aggregated, based on similar risk characteristics, according to the Company’s internal risk rating system and measured collectively. For periods after January 1, 2020, the related allowance for credit losses is based on factors such as the specific borrower’s financial performance and ability to repay, the Company’s past loan loss experience, reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, and the value of the underlying collateral and expected recoveries. For periods prior to January 1, 2020, the related allowance for credit losses was based on factors such as the specific borrower’s financial performance and ability to repay, the Company’s past loan loss experience, current economic conditions, and the value of the underlying collateral.
The Company considers various third-party economic forecast scenarios as part of estimating the allowance for expected credit losses and applies a probability-weighting to those economic forecast scenarios. As part of the January 1, 2020 adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company expected to be operating in a negative economic environment throughout 2020, and the Company had incorporated the potential for a recession in 2020 into its economic forecast. However, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company’s outlook on future economic conditions worsened throughout the year and significant uncertainty surrounding future economic outcomes remains. As such, the Company’s economic outlook at the end of 2020 included a heavy emphasis on pessimistic economic trend assumptions as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to restrain the U.S. economy. Additionally, the historical experience incorporated into the portfolio-specific models does not fully reflect the Company's comprehensive expectations regarding the future. As such, the Company incorporated qualitative factors to establish an appropriate allowance balance. These factors include motorcycle recovery value considerations, delinquency adjustments and specific problem loan trends.
Due to the use of projections and assumptions in estimating the losses, the amount of losses actually incurred by the Company in either portfolio could differ from the amounts estimated. Further, the Company’s allowance for credit losses incorporates known conditions at the balance sheet date and management’s expectations surrounding the economic forecasts. The Company will continue to monitor future economic trends and conditions. Expectations surrounding the Company's economic forecasts may change in future periods as additional information becomes available.

(a)On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and increased the allowance for loan loss through Retained earnings, net of income taxes, to establish an allowance that represents expected lifetime credit losses on the finance receivable portfolios at date of adoption.
The Company manages retail credit risk through its credit approval process and ongoing collection efforts. The Company uses FICO scores, a standard credit rating measurement, to differentiate the expected default rates of retail credit applicants, enabling the Company to better evaluate credit applicants for approval and to tailor pricing according to this assessment. For the Company’s U.S. and Canadian retail finance receivables, the Company determines the credit quality indicator for each loan at origination and does not update the credit quality indicator subsequent to the loan origination date.
As loan performance by credit quality indicator differs between the U.S. and Canadian retail loans, the Company’s credit quality indicators vary for the two portfolios. For U.S. retail finance receivables, those with a FICO score of 740 or above at origination are generally considered super prime, loans with a FICO score between 640 and 740 are generally categorized as prime, and loans with FICO score below 640 are generally considered sub-prime. For Canadian retail finance receivables, those with a FICO score of 700 or above at origination are generally considered super prime, loans with a FICO score between 620 and 700 are generally categorized as prime, and loans with FICO score below 620 are generally considered sub-prime.

Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, retail loans with a FICO score of 640 or above at origination were generally considered prime, and loans with a FICO score below 640 were generally considered sub-prime. These credit quality indicators were determined at the time of loan origination and were not updated subsequent to the loan origination date. The recorded investment in retail finance receivables, by credit quality indicator at December 31, was as follows (in thousands):

|  | 2019
Prime |  | $ | 5,278,093 |
Sub-prime |  | 1,138,335 |

The Company's credit risk on the wholesale portfolio is different from that of the retail portfolio. Whereas the retail portfolio represents a relatively homogeneous pool of retail finance receivables that exhibit more consistent loss patterns, the wholesale portfolio exposures are less consistent. The Company utilizes an internal credit risk rating system to manage credit risk exposure consistently across wholesale borrowers and individually evaluates credit risk factors for each borrower. The Company uses the following internal credit quality indicators, based on an internal risk rating system, listed from highest level of risk to lowest level of risk for the wholesale portfolio: Doubtful, Substandard, Special Mention, Medium Risk and Low Risk. Based upon the Company’s review, the dealers classified in the Doubtful category are the dealers with the greatest likelihood of being charged-off, while the dealers classified as Low Risk are least likely to be charged-off. Additionally, the Company classifies dealers identified as those in which foreclosure is probable as Non-Performing. The internal rating system considers factors such as the specific borrower's ability to repay and the estimated value of any collateral. Dealer risk rating classifications are reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis.
The amortized cost of wholesale financial receivables, by vintage and credit quality indicator, was as follows as of December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

Dealer risk rating categories prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13 were consistent with the current risk rating categories with the exception of the Non-Performing category for dealers identified as those in which foreclosure is probable, which was established in connection with the January 1, 2020 adoption. The recorded investment in wholesale finance receivables, by internal credit quality indicator at December 31, was as follows (in thousands):

Retail finance receivables are contractually delinquent if the minimum payment is not received by the specified due date. Retail finance receivables at amortized cost, excluding accrued interest, are generally charged-off when the receivable is 120 days or more delinquent, the related asset is repossessed, or the receivable is otherwise deemed uncollectible. The Company reverses accrued interest related to charged-off accounts against interest income when the account is charged-off. The Company reversed $19.1 million of accrued interest against interest income during the year ended December 31, 2020. All retail finance receivables accrue interest until either collected or charged-off. Due to the timely write-off of accrued interest, the Company made the election provided under ASU 2016-13 to exclude accrued interest from its allowance for credit losses. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, all retail finance receivables were accounted for as interest-earning receivables, of which $33.1 million and $48.0 million, re spectively, were 90 days or more past due.
65

Wholesale finance receivables are delinquent if the minimum payment is not received by the contractual due date. Wholesale finance receivables are written down once the Company determines that the specific borrower does not have the ability to repay the loan in full. Interest continues to accrue on past due finance receivables until the date the Company determines that foreclosure is probable, and the finance receivable is placed on non-accrual status. The Company will resume accruing interest on these accounts when payments are current according to the terms of the loans and future payments are reasonably assured. While on non-accrual status, all cash received is applied to principal or interest as appropriate. Once an account is charged-off, the Company will reverse the associated accrued interest against interest income. As the Company follows a non-accrual policy for interest, the allowance for credit losses excludes accrued interest for the wholesale portfolio. The Company reverse d $0.4 million of accrued interest related to the charge-off of Non-Performing dealer loans during the year ended December 31, 2020. There were no dealers on non-accrual status at December 31, 2020. The recorded investment of non-accrual status wholesale finance receivables at December 31, 2019 was $5.0 million, and of this, $2.6 million were 90 days or more past due.
The aging analysis of finance receivables at December 31, was as follows (in thousands):

Prior to the Company's January 1, 2020 adoption of ASU 2016-13, finance receivables were considered impaired when management determined it was probable that the Company would not be able to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the loan agreement. Portions of the allowance for credit losses were established to cover estimated losses on finance receivables specifically identified for impairment. The unspecified portion of the allowance for credit losses covered estimated losses on finance receivables which were collectively reviewed for impairment.
The allowance for credit losses and finance receivables by portfolio, segregated by those amounts that were individually evaluated for impairment and those that were collectively evaluated for impairment, at December 31, was as follows (in thousands):

Retail finance receivables were not evaluated individually for impairment prior to charge-off at December 31, 2019.
Generally, it is the Company’s policy not to change the terms and conditions of finance receivables. However, to minimize economic loss, the Company may modify certain finance receivables in troubled debt restructurings. Total finance receivables in troubled debt restructurings were not significant as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Additionally, in certain situations, the Company may offer short-term adjustments to customer payment due dates without affecting the associated interest rate or loan term. During the second quarter and into the first part of the third quarter of 2020, the Company offered an increased amount of short-term payment due date extensions on eligible retail loans to help retail customers get through financial difficulties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Through the remainder of 2020, the volume of payment extensions on eligible retail loans declined but has not yet returned to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels. The Company continues to grant payment extensions to customers in accordance with its policies.
8. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
On March 4, 2019, the Company purchased certain assets and liabilities of StaCyc, Inc. for total consideration of $14.9 million including cash paid at acquisition of $7.0 million.

Intangible assets, excluding goodwill, included in the Motorcycles segment consist primarily of customer relationships and trademarks with useful lives ranging from 5 to 20 years. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets are recorded in Other long-term assets on the Consolidated balance sheets. The gross carrying amounts at December 31, 2020 and 2019 differ from the acquisition date amounts due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Intangible assets at December 31, were as follows (in thousands):

| 2020 |  | 2019 |  | 2018
Gross carrying amount | $ | 12,979 |  |  | $ | 12,837 |  |  | $ | 7,234 |

The Financial Services segment had no goodwill or intangible assets at December 31, 2020 and 2019.
9. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to risks from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. To reduce its exposure to such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All derivative transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.
The Company sells products in foreign currencies and utilizes foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to the Euro, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Brazilian real, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Chinese yuan, Indian rupee, Singapore dollar, Thai baht, and Pound sterling. The Company's foreign currency exchange contracts generally have maturities of less than one year.
The Company utilizes commodity contracts to mitigate the effects of commodity price fluctuations related to metals and fuel consumed in the Company’s motorcycle operations. The Company's commodity contracts generally have maturities of less than one year.
The Company periodically utilizes treasury rate lock contracts to fix the interest rate on a portion of the principal related to an anticipated issuance of long-term debt, interest rate swaps to reduce the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on medium-term notes with floating interest rates, and cross-currency swaps to mitigate the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on foreign currency-denominated debt. The Company also utilizes interest rate caps to facilitate certain asset-backed securitization transactions.
All derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated balance sheets at fair value. In accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC Topic 815), the accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative financial instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship.
Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges are initially recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) (OCI) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects income. The Company assesses, both at the inception of each hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items. No component of a designated hedging derivative financial instrument’s gain or loss is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Derivative financial instruments not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage the Company’s exposure to foreign currency, commodity risks, and interest rate risks. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments not designated as hedging instruments are recorded directly in income.

The Company is exposed to credit loss risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties to its derivative financial instruments. Although no assurances can be given, the Company does not expect any of the counterparties to its derivative financial instruments to fail to meet their obligations. To manage credit loss risk, the Company evaluates counterparties based on credit ratings and, on a quarterly basis, evaluates each hedge’s net position relative to the counterparty’s ability to cover their position.
10. Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception. Right-of-use (ROU) assets related to the Company's leases are recorded in Lease assets and lease liabilities are recorded in Accrued liabilities and Lease liability on the Consolidated balance sheets.
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset over the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. The ROU asset also includes prepaid lease payments and initial direct costs and is reduced for lease incentives paid by the lessor. The discount rate used to determine the present value is generally the Company's incremental borrowing rate because the implicit rate in the lease is not readily determinable. The lease term used to calculate the ROU asset and lease liabilities includes periods covered by options to extend or terminate when the Company is reasonably certain the lease term will include these optional periods.
In accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (ASC Topic 842), the Company elected the short-term lease practical expedient that allows entities to recognize lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company has also elected the practical expedient under ASC Topic 842 allowing entities to not separate non-lease components from lease components, but instead account for such components as a single lease component for all leases except leases involving assets operated by a third-party.
The Company has operating lease arrangements for sales and administrative offices, manufacturing and distribution facilities, product testing facilities, equipment and vehicles. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from 1 to 11 years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for periods generally not greater than 5 years and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 year. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased asset. The Company's leases do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Operating lease expense for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $26.7 million and $27.4 million, respectively. This includes variable lease costs related to leases involving assets operated by a third-party of approximately $5.6 million and $6.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Other variable and short-term lease costs were not material.

Unsecured Commercial Paper – Commercial paper maturities may range up to 365 days from the issuance date. The weighted-average interest rate of outstanding commercial paper balances was 1.34% and 1.94% at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Credit Facilities – In April 2020, the Company entered into a $707.5 million five-year credit facility to replace the $765.0 million five-year credit facility that was due to mature in April 2021. The new five-year credit facility matures in April 2025. The Company also amended the $780.0 million five-year credit facility to $707.5 million with no change to the maturity date of April 2023. The Company also had a $195.0 million 364-day credit facility which was due to mature in May 2020. In April 2020, the Company extended the maturity date of this credit facility to August 2020; however, this facility was terminated on May 18, 2020. At the time of termination, there were no outstanding borrowings under this 364-day credit facility. On June 1, 2020, the Company entered into a new $350.0 million 364-day credit facility, and on June 4, 2020, the Company borrowed $150.0 million under this facility. On December 9, 2020, the Company amended this facility to allow for the early repayment of the $150.0 million borrowing, which was repaid in full on this date, along with the related interest. The
73

five-year credit facilities (together, the Global Credit Facilities), as well as the $350.0 million 364-day credit facility, bear interest at variable rates, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on certain criteria, such as credit ratings. The Global Credit Facilities and the $350.0 million 364-day credit facility also require the Company to pay a fee based on the average daily unused portion of the aggregate commitments. The Global Credit Facilities are committed facilities primarily used to support the Company's unsecured commercial paper program.
Unsecured Notes – The fixed-rate U.S. dollar-denominated unsecured notes provide for semi-annual interest payments, the fixed-rate foreign currency-dominated unsecured notes provide for annual interest payments, and the floating-rate unsecured notes provide for quarterly interest payments. Principal on the unsecured notes is due at maturity.
During February, May, and June of 2020, $600.0 million of 2.15%, $450.0 million of floating rate, and $350.0 million 2.40% medium-term notes matured, respectively, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full. During January, March, and September of 2019, $600.0 million of 2.25%, $150.0 million of floating-rate, and $600.0 million of 2.40% medium-term notes matured, respectively, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full.
Operating and Financial Covenants – HDFS and the Company are subject to various operating and financial covenants related to the credit facilities and various operating covenants under the medium-term and senior notes and the U.S. and Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. The more significant covenants are described below.
The operating covenants limit the Company’s and HDFS' ability to:
•Assume or incur certain liens;
•Participate in certain mergers or consolidations; and
•Purchase or hold margin stock.
Under the current financial covenants of the Global Credit Facilities, the ratio of HDFS’ consolidated debt, excluding secured debt, to HDFS' consolidated allowance for credit losses on finance receivables plus HDFS’ consolidated shareholders' equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL), cannot exceed 10.0 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. In addition, the ratio of the Company's consolidated debt to the Company's consolidated debt and consolidated shareholders’ equity (where the Company's consolidated debt in each case excludes that of HDFS and its subsidiaries, and the Company's consolidated shareholders’ equity excludes AOCL), cannot exceed 0.7 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. No financial covenants are required under the medium-term or senior notes or the U.S. or Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities.
At December 31, 2020 and 2019, HDFS and the Company remained in compliance with all of the then existing covenants.
12. Asset-Backed Financing
The Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and through asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. In the Company's asset-backed financing programs, the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to special purpose entities (SPEs), which are considered VIEs under U.S. GAAP. Each SPE then converts those assets into cash, through the issuance of debt. The Company retains servicing rights for all of the retail motorcycle finance receivables transferred to SPEs as part of an asset-backed financing. The accounting treatment for asset-backed financings depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE.
In transactions where the Company has power over the significant activities of the VIE and has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that are potentially significant to the VIE, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and consolidates the VIE within its consolidated financial statements. On a consolidated basis, the asset-backed financing is treated as a secured borrowing in this type of transaction and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing.
In transactions where the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company must determine whether it can achieve a sale for accounting purposes under ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing (ASC Topic 860). To achieve a sale for accounting purposes, the assets being transferred must be legally isolated, not be constrained by restrictions from further transfer, and be deemed to be beyond the Company’s control. If the Company does not meet all of these criteria for sale accounting, then the transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing.
If the Company meets all three of the sale criteria above, the transaction is recorded as a sale for accounting purposes and is referred to as an off-balance sheet asset-backed financing. Upon sale, the retail motorcycle finance receivables are removed from the Company’s Consolidated balance sheets and a gain or loss is recognized for the difference between the
74

cash proceeds received, the assets derecognized, and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction. The gain or loss on sale is included in Financial Services revenue in the Consolidated statements of operations.
The Company is not required, and does not currently intend, to provide any additional financial support to the on- or off-balance sheet VIEs associated with these transactions. Investors and creditors in these transactions only have recourse to the assets held by the VIEs.
The assets and liabilities related to the on-balance sheet asset-backed financings included in the Consolidated balance sheets at December 31, were as follows (in thousands):

On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Securitization VIEs – The Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs which in turn issue secured notes to investors, with various maturities and interest rates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. Each on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPE is a separate legal entity, and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitizations are only available for payment of the secured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transactions and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors until the associated secured debt and other obligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the SPEs are used only to support the securitizations. There are no amortization schedules for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes currently have various contractual maturities ranging from 2022 to 2028.
The Company is the primary beneficiary of its on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIEs because it retains servicing rights and a residual interest in the VIEs in the form of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a residual interest holder, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits which could potentially be significant to the VIE.
In 2020, the Company transferred $2.42 billion of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to four separate SPEs which, in turn, issued $2.08 billion, or $2.06 billion net of discounts and issuance costs, of secured notes through four separate on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions. In 2019, the Company transferred $1.12 billion of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to two separate SPEs which, in turn, issued $1.03 billion, or $1.02 billion net of discount and issuance costs, of secured notes through two separate on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions.

At December 31, 2020, the Consolidated balance sheets included outstanding balances related to the following secured notes with the related maturity dates and interest rates (in thousands):

Issue Date |  | Principal Amount at Date of Issuance |  | Weighted-Average Rate at Date of Issuance |  | Contractual Maturity Date at Date of Issuance
May 2020 |  | $750,178 |  | 3.38% |  | April 2028
May 2020 |  | $500,000 |  | 2.37% |  | October 2021 - October 2028
April 2020 |  | $300,000 |  | 3.30% |  | November 2027
January 2020 |  | $525,000 |  | 1.83% |  | February 2021 - April 2027
June 2019 |  | $525,000 |  | 2.37% |  | July 2020 - November 2026
May 2019 |  | $500,000 |  | 3.05% |  | July 2026

There were no secured notes included in the Consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2019 that were repaid in full during 2020. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, interest expense on the secured notes was $42.1 million and $13.3 million, respectively, which is included in Financial Services interest expense. The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions was 2.39% and 2.36% at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed U.S. Commercial Paper Conduit Facilities VIE – Until November 25, 2020, the Company had two separate agreements with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits, a $300.0 million revolving facility agreement and a $600.0 million revolving facility agreement (together, the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities). On November 25, 2020, the Company amended each revolving facility agreement by consolidating the two agreements into one $900.0 million revolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. Under the revolving facility agreement, the Company may transfer U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE, which in turn may issue debt to those third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. In addition to the $900.0 million aggregate commitment, the agreement allows for additional borrowings, at the lender’s discretion, of up to $300.0 million. Availability under the $900.0 million revolving facility (the U.S. Conduit Facility) is based on, among other things, the amount of eligible U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables held by the SPE as collateral.
Under the U.S. Conduit Facility, the assets of the SPE are restricted as collateral for the payment of the debt or other obligations arising in the transaction and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing commercial paper rates if funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper. If not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper, the terms of the interest are based on LIBOR. In each of these cases, a program fee is assessed based on the outstanding principal. The U.S. Conduit Facility also provides for an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment. When calculating the unused fee, the aggregate commitment does not include any unused portion of the $300.0 million additional borrowings allowed. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the U.S. Conduit Facility, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables held by the SPE is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, as of December 31, 2020, the U.S. Conduit Facility has an expiration date of November 19, 2021.
The Company is the primary beneficiary of its U.S. Conduit Facility VIE because it retains servicing rights and a residual interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a residual interest holder, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits which could potentially be significant to the VIE.
In 2020, the Company transferred $195.3 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $163.6 million of debt under the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities. In 2019, the Company transferred $174.4 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $154.6 million of debt under the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities.
For the year ended December 31, 2020 interest expense under the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities and U.S. Conduit Facility was a total of $8.9 million. For the year ended December 31, 2019 interest expense under the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities was $18.5 million. The interest expense is included in Financial Services interest expense. The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding U.S. Conduit Facility was 1.61% at December 31, 2020. The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding Former U.S. Conduit Facilities was 2.63% at December 31, 2019.

On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Canadian Commercial Paper Conduit Facility – In June 2020, the Company renewed its facility agreement (Canadian Conduit) with a Canadian bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduit. Under the agreement, the Canadian Conduit is contractually committed, at the Company's option, to purchase eligible Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables for proceeds up to C$220.0 million. The transferred assets are restricted as collateral for the payment of the associated debt. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing market interest rates plus a specified margin. The Canadian Conduit also provides for a program fee and an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment of C$220.0 million. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the Canadian Conduit, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, as of December 31, 2020, the Canadian Conduit has an expiration date of June 25, 2021.
The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE; therefore, the Company does not consolidate the VIE. However, the Company treats the conduit facility as a secured borrowing as it maintains effective control over the assets transferred to the VIE and therefore does not meet the requirements for sale accounting.
As the Company participates in and does not consolidate the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE, the maximum exposure to loss associated with this VIE, which would only be incurred in the unlikely event that all the finance receivables and underlying collateral have no residual value, is $20.0 million at December 31, 2020. The maximum exposure is not an indication of the Company's expected loss exposure.
In 2020, the Company transferred $77.9 million of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit for proceeds of $61.6 million. In 2019, the Company transferred $28.2 million of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit for proceeds of $23.4 million.
For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, interest expense on the Canadian Conduit was $2.9 million and $3.6 million, respectively, which is included in Financial Services interest expense. The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding Canadian Conduit was 2.13% and 2.68% at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Off-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Securitization VIE – There were no off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company sold retail motorcycle finance receivables with a principal balance of $301.8 million into a securitization VIE that was not consolidated, recognized a gain of $9.3 million and received cash proceeds of $312.6 million. The gain on sale was included in Financial Services revenue on the Consolidated statements of operations. In April 2020, the Company repurchased the finance receivables associated with this off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE for $27.4 million.
Similar to an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization, the Company transferred U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which in turn issued secured notes to investors, with various maturities and interest rates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. The off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPE was a separate legal entity, and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitization were only available for payment of the secured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transaction and were not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. In an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. As part of this off-balance sheet securitization, the Company did not retain any financial interest in the VIE beyond servicing rights and ordinary representations and warranties and related covenants.
The Company was not the primary beneficiary of the off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE because it only retained servicing rights and did not have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE which could potentially be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, this transaction met the accounting sale requirements under ASC Topic 860 and was recorded as a sale for accounting purposes. Upon the sale in 2016, the retail motorcycle finance receivables were removed from the Company’s Consolidated balance sheets and a gain was recognized for the difference between the cash proceeds received, the assets derecognized and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction.
Servicing Activities – The Company services all retail motorcycle finance receivables that it originates. When the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs through asset-backed financings, the Company retains the right to service the finance receivables and receives servicing fees based on the securitized finance receivables balance and certain ancillary fees. In on-balance sheet asset-backed financings, servicing fees are eliminated in consolidation and therefore are not recorded on a consolidated basis. In off-balance sheet asset-backed financings, servicing fees and ancillary fees are recorded in Financial Services revenue in the Consolidated statements of operations. The fees the Company is paid for

servicing represent adequate compensation and, consequently, the Company does not recognize a servicing asset or liability. The Company recognized servicing fee income of $0.1 million and $0.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
The unpaid principal balance of retail motorcycle finance receivables serviced by the Company at December 31, was as follows (in thousands):

13. Fair Value
The Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy.
Level 1 inputs include quoted prices for identical instruments and are the most observable.
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and observable inputs such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and yield curves. The Company uses the market approach to derive the fair value for its Level 2 fair value measurements. Foreign currency contracts, commodity contracts, and cross-currency swaps are valued using quoted forward rates and prices; interest rate swaps and caps are valued using quoted interest rates and yield curves.
Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market and include the Company's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements – The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, were as follows (in thousands):

Finance Receivables, net – The carrying value of retail and wholesale finance receivables is amortized cost less an allowance for credit losses. The fair value of retail finance receivables is generally calculated by discounting future cash flows using an estimated discount rate that reflects current credit, interest rate and prepayment risks associated with similar types of instruments. Fair value is determined based on Level 3 inputs. The amortized cost basis of wholesale finance receivables approximates fair value because they are generally either short-term or have interest rates that adjust with changes in market interest rates.
Deposits – The carrying value of deposits is amortized cost and approximates carrying value due to the short maturities of the deposits. Fair value is calculated using Level 2 inputs.
Debt – The carrying value of debt is generally amortized cost, net of discounts and debt issuance costs. The fair value of unsecured commercial paper and credit facility borrowings are calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value due to its short maturity. The fair value of debt provided under the U.S. Conduit Facilities and Canadian Conduit Facility is calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value since the interest rates charged under the facilities are tied directly to market rates and fluctuate as market rates change. The fair values of the medium-term notes and senior notes are estimated based upon rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of the fixed-rate debt related to on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions is estimated based on pricing currently available for transactions with similar terms and maturities (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of the floating-rate debt related to on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions is calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value since the interest rates charged are tied directly to market rates and fluctuate as market rates change.

14. Product Warranty and Recall Campaigns
The Company currently provides a standard two-year limited warranty on all new motorcycles sold worldwide, except in Japan, where the Company currently provides a standard three-year limited warranty. The Company also provides a five-year unlimited warranty on the battery for new electric motorcycles. In addition, the Company provides a one-year warranty for parts and accessories. The warranty coverage for the retail customer generally begins when the product is sold to a retail customer. The Company accrues for future warranty claims at the time of sale using an estimated cost based primarily on historical Company claim information.
Additionally, the Company has from time to time initiated certain voluntary recall campaigns. The Company records estimated recall costs when the liability is both probable and estimable. This generally occurs when the Company's management approves and commits to a recall. The warranty and recall liability is included in Accrued Liabilities and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the Company’s warranty and recall liability were as follows as of December 31, (in thousands):

| 2020 |  | 2019 |  | 2018
Balance, beginning of period | $ | 89,793 |  |  | $ | 131,740 |  |  | $ | 94,200 |

15. Employee Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits
The Company has a qualified defined benefit pension plan and postretirement healthcare benefit plans. The plans cover certain eligible employees and retirees of the Motorcycles segment. The Company also has unfunded supplemental employee retirement plan agreements (SERPA) with certain employees.
Pension benefits are based primarily on years of service and, for certain participants, levels of compensation. Plan participants are eligible to receive postretirement healthcare benefits upon attaining age 55 after rendering at least 10 years of service to the Company. Some of the plans require participant contributions to partially offset benefit costs.

During 2020, actuarial losses related to the obligation for pension and SERPA benefits were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate, partially offset by changes in mortality assumptions, demographic assumptions and a reduction in plan participants. During 2019, actuarial losses were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate partially offset by changes in mortality assumptions.
During 2020 and 2019, the actuarial losses related to the obligation for postretirement healthcare benefits were due primarily to decreases in the discount rate, partially offset by favorable claim cost adjustments.
The funded status of the qualified pension plan and the SERPA plans are combined above. Plans with projected benefit obligations (PBO) or accumulated benefit obligations (ABO) in excess of the fair value of plan assets at December 31, is presented below (in thousands):

The expected return on plan assets is calculated based on the market related value of plan assets. The market related value of plan assets is different from the fair value in that asset gains and losses are smoothed over a five-year period.
U nrecognized gains and losses related to plan obligations and assets are initially recorded in other comprehensive income and result from actual experience that differs from assumed or expected results, and the impacts of changes in assumptions. Unrecognized plan asset gains and losses not yet reflected in the market related value of plan assets are not subject to amortization. Remaining unrecognized gains and losses that exceed 10% of the greater of the projected benefit obligation or the market related value of plan assets are amortized to earnings over the estimated future service period of active plan participants. The impacts of plan amendments, if any, are amortized over the estimated future service period of plan participants at the time of the amendment.
Assumptions:
Weighted-average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations and net periodic benefit cost at December 31, were as follows:

Plan Assets:
Pension Plan Assets – The Company’s investment objective is to ensure assets are sufficient to pay benefits while mitigating the volatility of retirement plan assets or liabilities recorded in the balance sheet. The Company mitigates volatility through asset diversification and partial asset/liability matching. The investment portfolio for the Company's pension plan assets contains a diversified blend of equity and fixed-income investments. The Company’s current overall targeted asset allocation as a percentage of total market value was 53% equities and 47% fixed-income and cash. Assets are rebalanced regularly to keep the actual allocation in line with targets. Equity holdings primarily include investments in small-, medium- and large-cap companies in the U.S., including Company stock, investments in developed and emerging foreign markets and other investments such as private equity and real estate. Fixed-income holdings consist of U.S. government and agency securities, state and municipal bonds, corporate bonds from diversified industries and foreign obligations. In addition, cash
82

equivalent balances are maintained at levels adequate to meet near-term plan expenses and benefit payments. Investment risk is measured and monitored on an ongoing basis through quarterly investment portfolio reviews.
Postretirement Healthcare Plan Assets – The Company's investment objective is to maximize the return on assets to help pay benefits by prudently investing in equities, fixed income and alternative assets. The Company's current overall targeted asset allocation as a percentage of total market value was 69% equities and 31% fixed-income and cash. Equity holdings primarily include investments in small-, medium- and large-cap companies in the U.S., investments in developed and emerging foreign markets and other investments such as private equity and real estate. Fixed-income holdings consist of U.S. government and agency securities, state and municipal bonds, corporate bonds from diversified industries and foreign obligations. In addition, cash equivalent balances are maintained at levels adequate to meet near-term plan expenses and benefit payments. Investment risk is measured and monitored on an ongoing basis through quarterly investment portfolio reviews.

For 2021, the Company’s overall expected long-term rate of return is 6.20% for pension assets and 6.70% for postretirement healthcare plan assets. The expected long-term rate of return is based on the portfolio as a whole and not on the sum of the returns on individual asset categories. The return is based on historical returns adjusted to reflect the current view of the long-term investment market.
Postretirement Healthcare Cost:
The weighted-average healthcare cost trend rates used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation of the healthcare plans were as follows:

| 2020 |  | 2019
Healthcare cost trend rate for next year | 7.00 | % |  | 7.25 | %
Rate to which the cost trend rate is assumed to decline (the ultimate rate) | 5.00 | % |  | 5.00 | %
Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate | 2029 |  | 2029

Future Contributions and Benefit Payments:
Based on the funded status of the qualified pension plan, there is no requirement for the Company to make contributions to the qualified pension plan assets in 2021. The Company expects that 2021 postretirement healthcare plan benefits and benefits due under the SERPA plans will be paid by the Company or, in the case of postretirement healthcare plan benefits, partially funded with plan assets.

The Company makes additional contributions to the plans on behalf of the employees and expensed $21.7 million, $21.9 million and $20.1 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively related to the contributions.
16. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, product and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to these items, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss. Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomes available for each matter.
York Environmental Matter – The Company is involved with government agencies and the U.S. Navy related to a matter involving the cleanup of soil and groundwater contamination at its York, Pennsylvania facility. The York facility was formerly used by the U.S. Navy and AMF prior to the purchase of the York facility by the Company from AMF in 1981. The Company has an agreement with the U.S. Navy which calls for the U.S. Navy and the Company to contribute amounts into a trust equal to 53% and 47%, respectively, of costs associated with environmental investigation and remediation activities at the York facility (Response Costs). A site wide remedial investigation/feasibility study and a proposed final remedy for the York facility have been completed and approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The associated cleanup plan documents were approved in February 2020 and the remaining cleanup activities are expected to begin in 2021. The Company has an accrual for its share of the estimated future Response Costs recorded in Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets.
Product Liability Matters – The Company is involved in product liability suits related to the operation of its business. The Company accrues for claim exposures that are probable of occurrence and can be reasonably estimated. The Company also maintains insurance coverage for product liability exposures. The Company believes that its accruals and insurance coverage are adequate and that product liability suits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s Consolidated financial statements.
17. Share-Based Awards
The Company has a share-based compensation plan which was approved by its shareholders in April 2020 (the Plan) under which its Board of Directors may grant to employees share-based awards including restricted stock units (RSUs), performance shares, and nonqualified stock options. Performance shares include a three-year performance period with vesting based on achievement of internal performance targets. RSUs granted under the Plan vest ratably over a three-year period with the first one-third of the grant vesting one year after the date of grant. Dividends are paid on RSUs and performance shares settled with stock. Dividend equivalents are paid on RSUs and performance shares settled with cash. Stock options expire 10 years from the date of grant. At December 31, 2020, there were 5.4 million shares of common stock available for future awards under the Plan.
The Company recognizes the cost of its share-based awards in the Consolidated statements of operations. The cost of each share-based equity award is based on the grant date fair value and the cost of each share-based cash-settled award is based on the settlement date fair value. Forfeitures for share-based awards are estimated at the grant date and adjusted when it is likely to change. Share-based award expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service or performance periods of each separately vesting tranche within the awards. The expense recognized reflects the number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest based on the service and, if applicable, performance requirements of each award. Total share-

based award compensation expense recognized by the Company during 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $23.5 million, $33.7 million and $35.5 million, respectively, or $18.0 million, $25.8 million and $27.2 million net of taxes, respectively.
Restricted Stock Units and Performance Shares - Settled in Stock – The fair value of RSUs and performance shares settled in stock is determined based on the market price of the Company’s stock on the grant date. The activity for these awards for the year ended December 31, 2020 was as follows (in thousands, except for per share amounts):

As of December 31, 2020, there was $19.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs and performance shares settled in stock, net of estimated forfeitures, that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years.
Restricted Stock Units and Performance Shares - Settled in Cash – RSUs and performance shares settled in cash are recorded in the Consolidated balance sheets as a liability until vested.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters
Information to be included in the Proxy Statement under the caption Common Stock Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management is incorporated by reference herein.
The following table provides information about the Company’s equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2020:

Plan Category |  | Number of securities to be issued upon the exercise of outstanding options |  | Weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options |  | Number of securities remaining available for future issuance under equity compensation plans (excluding securities reflected in the first column)
Plan approved by shareholders: |  |  |  |  |  |
Management employees |  | 658,357 |  |  | $ | 55.85 |  |  | 5,395,000 |
Plan not approved by shareholders: |  |  |  |  |  |
Non-employee Board of Directors |  | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | 152,495 |
|  | 658,357 |  |  |  |  | 5,547,495 |

Documents for the Company’s equity compensation plans have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on a timely basis and included in the list of exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Under the Company’s management plan its Board of Directors may grant to employees share-based awards including restricted stock units (RSUs), performance shares, and nonqualified stock options. Performance shares include a three-year performance period with vesting based on achievement of internal performance targets. RSUs vest ratably over a three-year
97

period. Stock options granted under the Plan have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant and vest ratably over a three-year period with the first one-third of the grant becoming exercisable one year after the date of grant. Stock options expire 10 years from the date of grant.
The Company's Director Compensation Policy provides non-employee Directors with compensation that includes an annual retainer as well as a grant of share units. The payment of share units is deferred until a Director ceases to serve as a Director and the share units are payable at that time in actual shares of common stock. The Company's Director Compensation Policy also provides that a non-employee Director may elect to receive 50% or 100% of the annual retainer to be paid in each calendar year in the form of common stock based upon the fair market value of the common stock at the time of the annual meeting of shareholders. Each Director must receive a minimum of one-half of their annual retainer in common stock until the Director reaches the Director stock ownership guidelines defined below.
In May 2016, the Company's Board of Directors approved the “Board of Directors and Senior Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines” (Ownership Guidelines). The Ownership Guidelines stipulate that all Directors hold five times their annual retainer in shares of common stock and Vice Presidents, General Managers or higher (Senior Executives) hold from two times to six times of their base salary in shares of common stock, or certain rights to acquire common stock, depending on their level. The Directors and Senior Executives have five years from the date they are elected a Director or become a Senior Executive to accumulate the appropriate number of shares of common stock.
