The Credit Agreement provides for a $325 million senior secured revolving credit facility due June 23, 2028 (the "Revolving Credit Facility") and, as part of the First Amendment (defined below), a C$175 million revolving credit facility in Canadian dollars due June 23, 2028 (the "Canadian Revolving Credit Facility" and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, "the Revolving Credit Facilities"); •"OPENLANE, Inc." refers to the Company and not to its subsidiaries; •"Senior notes" refers to the 5.125% senior notes due 2025 ($210 million aggregate principal was outstanding at March 31, 2025); and •"Series A Preferred Stock" refers to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (634,305 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were outstanding at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024). Business and Nature of Operations OPENLANE is a leading digital marketplace for used vehicles, connecting sellers and buyers across North America and Europe to facilitate fast, easy and transparent transactions. Our portfolio of integrated technology, data analytics, financing, logistics, reconditioning and other remarketing solutions, combined with our vehicle logistics centers in Canada, help advance our purpose: to make wholesale easy so our customers can be more successful. As of March 31, 2025, the Marketplace segment serves its customer base through digital marketplaces and 15 vehicle logistics center locations across Canada. For commercial sellers, our software platform supports private label digital remarketing sites and provides comprehensive solutions to our automobile manufacturer, captive finance company and other commercial customers. For dealer customers, our platform facilitates multiple sale formats, data-driven insights and integrated services to automotive dealers, coast-to-coast in the United States, Canada and Europe. OPENLANE Europe is our digital marketplace serving customers in the United Kingdom and Continental Europe through a consolidated online wholesale used vehicle platform. Marketplace services include a variety of activities designed to facilitate the transfer of used vehicles between sellers and buyers throughout the vehicle life cycle. We facilitate the exchange of these vehicles through our marketplaces, which aligns sellers and buyers. As an agent for customers, the Company generally does not take title to or ownership of vehicles sold through our marketplaces. Generally, fees are earned from the seller and buyer on each successful marketplace transaction in addition to fees earned for ancillary services. We also sell vehicles that we have purchased, for which we do take title and record the gross selling price of the vehicle sold through our marketplaces as revenue. We also provide services such as inbound and outbound transportation logistics, reconditioning, vehicle inspection and certification, titling, administrative and collateral recovery services. We are able to serve the diverse and multi-faceted needs of our customers through the wide range of services offered. AFC is a leading provider of floorplan financing primarily to independent used vehicle dealers ("independent vehicle dealers") and this financing is provided through approximately 90 locations (hybrid of physical locations and a digital servicing network) throughout the United States and Canada as of March 31, 2025. Floorplan financing supports independent vehicle dealers in North America who purchase vehicles at OPENLANE and other used vehicle and salvage auctions. In addition, AFC provides financing for dealer inventory purchased directly from wholesalers, other dealers and directly from consumers, as well as providing liquidity for customer trade-ins which can encompass settling lien holder payoffs. AFC also provides title services for their customers. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year as a whole. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, generally consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of our results of operations, cash flows and financial position for the periods presented. These consolidated financial statements and condensed notes to consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 20, 2025. The 2024 year-end consolidated balance sheet data included in this Form 10-Q was derived from the audited financial statements referenced above and does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. Reclassifications The Company has reclassified certain amounts relating to its prior period results to conform to its current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of prior periods. Interest Expense and Finance Interest Expense Historically the Company has presented interest expense for both its Marketplace and Finance segments below operating profit. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company updated its consolidated income statement presentation and its segment income statement presentation (Note 10) to include finance interest expense as a separate line item within operating expenses. Interest expense related to the Marketplace segment (interest on corporate debt) continues to be shown as a separate line item below operating profit. This change increases operating expenses, thereby reducing operating profit, but has no impact on income (loss) from continuing operations. Finance interest expense of $32.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 has been reclassified to conform to the new presentation. Finance Revenue and Finance Provision for Credit Losses Historically, finance revenue from the Finance segment has been presented net of the provision for credit losses. The Company is presenting the finance provision for credit losses as an operating expense, rather than as a reduction of the finance revenues. Management has evaluated the materiality of these adjustments to its prior period financial statements from a quantitative and qualitative perspective and has concluded that the revisions were not material to any prior annual or interim period. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company updated its consolidated income statement presentation and its segment income statement presentation (Note 10) to include the finance provision for credit losses as a separate line item within the operating expenses. This change increases finance revenue and operating expenses, but has no impact on operating profit or income (loss) from continuing operations. The finance provision for credit losses of $13.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 has been reclassified to conform to the revised presentation. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates based in part on assumptions about current, and for some estimates, future economic and market conditions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Although the current estimates contemplate current conditions and expected future changes, as appropriate, it is reasonably possible that future conditions could differ from these estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial position. Among other effects, such changes could result in future impairments of goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets, incremental losses on finance receivables, additional allowances on accounts receivable and deferred tax assets and changes in litigation and other loss contingencies. New Accounting Standards In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-03, Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires that public business entities disclose additional information about specific expense categories to provide more detailed information to investors about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires additional income tax disclosures on an annual basis, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
