DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract] |
ACCOUNTING POLICIES | ACCOUNTING POLICIES In the opinion of Titan International, Inc. (Titan or the Company), the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature and necessary for a fair statement of the Company's financial position as of June 30, 2013, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. Accounting policies have continued without significant change and are described in the Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies contained in the Company's 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules for Form 10-Q's and, therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Sales Sales and revenues are presented net of sales taxes and other related taxes. Fair value of financial instruments The Company records all financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, other accruals and notes payable at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short term or stated rates. Investments in marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value. The 7.875% senior secured notes due 2017 (senior secured notes) and 5.625% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2017 (convertible notes) are carried at cost of $544.1 million and $60.2 million at June 30, 2013, respectively. The fair value of the senior secured notes at June 30, 2013, as obtained through an independent pricing source, was approximately $579.5 million. Cash dividends The Company declared cash dividends of $.005 and $.010 per share of common stock for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and 2012. The second quarter 2013 cash dividend of $.005 per share of common stock was paid July 15, 2013, to stockholders of record on June 28, 2013. Interest paid Titan paid $0.8 million and $0.3 million for interest for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $16.4 million and $11.9 million for interest for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Income taxes paid Titan paid $27.2 million and $37.0 million for income taxes for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $37.2 million and $46.9 million for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Use of estimates The policies utilized by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and require management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amount 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 reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates and assumptions. Reclassification Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements through the date of issuance of the financial statements.
