1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Titan International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Titan or the Company) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2023 (the 2022 Form 10-K). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include estimates and assumptions of management that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
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. Our 7.00% senior secured notes due 2028 were carried at a cost of $395.8 million at June 30, 2023. The fair value of the senior secured notes due 2028 at June 30, 2023, as obtained through an independent pricing source, was approximately $373.0 million.
Russia-Ukraine military conflict
In February 2022, in response to the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the United States, other North Atlantic Treaty Organization member states, as well as non-member states, announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia, certain Russian citizens and enterprises. The continuation of the conflict triggered additional economic and other sanctions enacted by the United States and other countries throughout the world. The scope of potential additional sanctions is unknown.
The Company currently owns 64.3% of the Voltyre-Prom, a leading producer of agricultural and industrial tires in Volgograd, Russia, which represents approximately 6% and 7% of consolidated assets of Titan as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Russian operations represent approximately 7% and 6% of consolidated global sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, while representing 6% of consolidated global sales for both the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The impact of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine has not had a significant impact on global operations. The Company continues to monitor the potential impacts on the business including the increased cost of energy in Europe and the ancillary impacts that the military conflict could have on other global operations.
Sale of Australian wheel business
On March 29, 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the Agreement) for the sale of its Australian wheel business, to OTR Tyres, a leading Australian tire, wheel and service provider. The closing date of the transaction was March 31, 2022. The Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants for transactions of this type. The sale included gross proceeds and cash repatriated of approximately $17.5 million, and the assumption by OTR Tyres of all liabilities, including employee and lease obligations. Refer to Note 12 for additional information on the loss on sale of the Australian wheel business.
Share Repurchase Program
On December 16, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program allowing for the expenditure of up to $50.0 million (the “Share Repurchase Program”) for the repurchase of the Company's common stock. This authorization took effect immediately and will remain in place for up to three years. Under the Share Repurchase Program Titan repurchased 493,279 shares of its common stock totaling $5.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023, and 603,068 shares of its common stock totaling $6.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, $43.6 million remains available for future share repurchases under this program.

Supplier financing program
A subsidiary of Titan participates in supplier financing programs pursuant to credit agreements between certain suppliers and financial institution. The program enables those suppliers to receive payment from participating financial institutions prior to the payment date specified in the terms between Titan and the supplier. Titan does not incur annual service fees associated with its enrollment in the supplier financing program. The transactions are at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institution, and Titan is not a party to the agreement and has no economic interest in the supplier's decision to receive payment prior to the payment date. The terms between Titan and a supplier, including the amount due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by a supplier's participation in the program. Amounts due to suppliers who participate in the program are included in the accounts payable line item in Titan's Consolidated Balance Sheets and Titan’s payments made under the program are reflected in cash flows from operating activities in Titan's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For suppliers who participate in a supplier financing program, Titan will pay the financial institution directly rather than the supplier. The confirmed obligations under the supplier financing programs included in the accounts payable line item in Titan's Consolidated Balance Sheet were $6.7 million at June 30, 2023, and $11.8 million at December 31, 2022.
Adoption of new accounting standards
In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2022-04, Liabilities—Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50) Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations ("ASU No. 2022-04"). The ASU requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, and potential magnitude. The amendments in this ASU will be applied retrospectively to each period in which a balance sheet is presented, with the exception of a new requirement to disclose a rollforward of program activity, which will be applied prospectively. The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the impact of this ASU effective March 31, 2023 and incorporated the required disclosures within Note 1 to condensed consolidated financial statements.
Accounting standards issued but not yet adopted
On May 3, 2023, the SEC amended disclosure rules to modernize the disclosure requirements relating to repurchase of an issuer's equity securities. Under the amended rules, issuers will be required to provide daily repurchase activity on a quarterly or semi-annual basis, depending upon the type of issuer. Issuers will also have to explain the purpose of such repurchases and how they determined buyback amounts. The Company will adopt the impact of this standard on October 1, 2023 and will include the related enhanced disclosures in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and in the Company's quarterly reports thereafter.
2. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, NET

domestic subsidiaries and is scheduled to mature in October 2026. The credit facility can be expanded by up to $50 million through an accordion provision within the agreement. From time to time Titan's availability under this credit facility may be less than $125.0 million as a result of outstanding letters of credit and eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances at certain of its domestic subsidiaries. Based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances, the Company's amount available for borrowing totaled $117.9 million at June 30, 2023. With outstanding letters of credit totaling $6.2 million, the net amount available for borrowing under the credit facility totaled $111.7 million at June 30, 2023.

Other debt
The Company has a working capital loan at Titan Pneus do Brasil Ltda at varying interest rates from approximately 5% to 6.5%, which totaled $7.1 million at June 30, 2023. The maturity date on this loan is one year or less. The Company expects to negotiate an extension of the maturity date on this loan with the respective financial institution or repay, as needed.
8. LEASES
The Company leases certain buildings and equipment under both operating and finance leases. Certain lease agreements provide for renewal options, fair value purchase options, and payment of property taxes, maintenance, and insurance by the Company. Under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842 "Leases," the Company made an accounting policy election, by class of underlying asset, not to separate non-lease components such as those previously stated from lease components and instead will treat the lease agreement as a single lease component for all asset classes. Operating right-of-use (ROU) assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent Titan's obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease. The majority of Titan's leases are operating leases. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of Titan's leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate (7.27%), based on the information available at the lease commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Amortization expense associated with finance leases is included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, and interest expense associated with finance leases is included in interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

10. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
The Company holds a variable interest in two joint ventures for which the Titan is the primary beneficiary. One of these joint ventures operate distribution facilities that primarily distribute mining products. Titan is the 50% owner of the distribution facility located in Canada. Titan is also a 50% owner of a manufacturer of undercarriage components and complete track systems for earthmoving machines in India. The Company’s variable interests in these joint ventures relate to sales of Titan products to these entities, consigned inventory, and working capital loans. As the primary beneficiary of these variable interest entities (VIEs), the VIEs’ assets, liabilities, and results of operations are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The other equity holders’ interests are reflected in “Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and “Noncontrolling interests” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(1) In May 2022, the Brazilian tax authorities approved indirect tax credits to be applied against future tax obligations. Refer to Footnote 13 for additional information.

13. INCOME TAXES
The Company recorded income tax expense of $9.4 million and $19.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded income tax expense of $23.6 million and $27.7 million, respectively. The Company's effective income tax rate was 22.8% and 21.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 26.6% and 22.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the income tax expense each period differed due to an overall pre-tax income decrease which resulted in the fluctuation in the effective tax rate.
The Company’s 2023 and 2022 income tax expense and rates differed from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate to pre-tax income primarily as a result of foreign income tax rate differential on the mix of earnings, non-deductible royalty expenses in certain foreign jurisdictions, and certain permanent foreign inclusion items on the domestic provision.
The Company continues to monitor the realization of its deferred tax assets and assesses the need for a valuation allowance. The Company analyzes available positive and negative evidence to determine if a valuation allowance is needed based on the weight of the evidence. This objectively verifiable evidence primarily includes the past three years' profit and loss positions. This process requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that are uncertain in nature. The Company has established valuation allowances with respect to certain deferred tax assets in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions and continues to monitor and assess the need for valuation allowances in all its jurisdictions.
Brazilian Tax Credits
In June 2021, the Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries received a notice that they had prevailed on an existing legal claim in regards to certain non-income (indirect) taxes that had been previously charged and paid. The matter specifically relates to companies’ rights to exclude the state tax on goods circulation (a value-added-tax or VAT equivalent, known in Brazil as “ICMS”) from the calculation of certain additional indirect taxes (specifically the program of social integration (“PIS”) and contribution for financing of social security (“COFINS”) levied by the Brazilian States on the sale of goods.
During the second quarter of 2023, one of the Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries received a notice that they had prevailed on an additional legal claim in regards to the non-income (indirect) taxes credits that had been granted in a prior year ruling. The most recent ruling exempted from taxes, the interest benefit on the indirect tax credits granted in prior year. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded indirect tax credits of $0.5 million within other income and $2.6 million within provision for income taxes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
During the second quarter of 2022, the Company submitted the related supporting documentation and received the approval
from the Brazilian tax authorities for one of its Brazilian subsidiaries. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded indirect tax credits of $22.5 million within other income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company also recorded $7.8 million of income tax expense associated with the recognition of these indirect tax credits.
The Company expects to be able to apply the tax credits received to settle the income tax liability that was incurred as a result of the credit. The Company also expects to utilize the majority of the credit against future PIS/COFINS and income tax obligations over the next twelve months.

15. LITIGATION
The Company is a party to routine legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of business. Due to the difficult nature of predicting unresolved and future legal claims, the Company cannot anticipate or predict the material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows as a result of efforts to comply with, or liabilities pertaining to, legal judgments. In the opinion of management, the Company is not currently involved in any legal proceedings which, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
16. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has aggregated its operating units into reportable segments based on its three customer markets: agricultural, earthmoving/construction, and consumer. Each reportable segment includes wheels, tires, wheel/tire assemblies, and undercarriage systems and components. These segments are based on the information used by the Chief Executive Officer to make certain operating decisions, allocate portions of capital expenditures, and assess segment performance. Segment external sales, expenses, and income from operations are determined based on the results of operations for the operating units of the Company's manufacturing facilities. Segment assets are generally determined on the basis of the tangible assets located at such operating units’ manufacturing facilities and the intangible assets associated with the acquisitions of such operating units. However, certain operating units’ property, plant and equipment balances are carried at the corporate level.

Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (MD&A) is designed to provide a reader of the financial statements included in this quarterly report with a narrative from the perspective of the management of Titan International, Inc. (Titan or the Company) on Titan's financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and other factors that may affect the Company's future results. The MD&A in this quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and other financial information included elsewhere in this quarterly report and the MD&A and audited consolidated financial statements and related notes in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC o n February 27, 2023 (the 2022 Form 10-K).
Russia-Ukraine Military Conflict
In February 2022, in response to the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the United States, other North Atlantic Treaty Organization member states, as well as non-member states, announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia, certain Russian citizens and enterprises. The continuation of the conflict triggered additional economic and other sanctions enacted by the United States and other countries throughout the world. The scope of potential additional sanctions is unknown.
The Company currently owns 64.3% of the Voltyre-Prom, a leading producer of agricultural and industrial tires in Volgograd, Russia, which represents approximately 6% and 7% of consolidated assets of Titan both as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Russian operations represent approximately 7% and 6% of consolidated global sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, while representing 6% of consolidated global sales for both the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The impact of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine has not had a significant impact on global operations. The Company continues to monitor the potential impacts on the business including the increased cost of energy in Europe and the ancillary impacts that the military conflict could have on other global operations.
As the military conflict in Ukraine exacerbates the global food crisis, Titan remains committed to the role it plays in the continuity of food supply and keeping essential goods moving, including its tire operation in Volgograd, Russia. Tires produced in the Voltyre-Prom facility are primarily sold into Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) countries, located in Europe and Asia. This facility is in full compliance with all international sanctions on Russia. Titan has stopped any additional investments into this joint project and emphasizes that neither this operation, nor any other Titan operations, sell any products to the Russian military or other government agencies.
The potential impact of bans, sanction programs, and boycotts on our business is uncertain at the current time due to the fluid nature of the military conflict. The potential impacts include supply chain and logistics disruptions, financial impacts including disruptions to the execution of banking transactions with certain Russian financial institutions, volatility in foreign exchange rates and interest rates, inflationary pressures on raw materials and energy, loss of operational control and/or assets, heightened cybersecurity threats and other restrictions.
Brazilian Tax Credits
In June 2021, the Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries received a notice that they had prevailed on an existing legal claim in regards to certain non-income (indirect) taxes that had been previously charged and paid. The matter specifically relates to companies’ rights to exclude the state tax on goods circulation (a value-added-tax or VAT equivalent, known in Brazil as “ICMS”) from the calculation of certain additional indirect taxes (specifically the program of social integration (“PIS”) and contribution for financing of social security (“COFINS”) levied by the Brazilian States on the sale of goods.
During the second quarter of 2023, one of the Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries received a notice that they had prevailed on an additional legal claim in regards to the non-income (indirect) taxes credits that had been granted in a prior year ruling. The most recent ruling exempted from taxes, the interests benefit on the indirect tax credits granted in prior year. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded indirect tax credits of $0.5 million within other income and $2.6 million within provision for income taxes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
During the second quarter of 2022, the Company submitted the related supporting documentation and received the approval
from the Brazilian tax authorities for one of its Brazilian subsidiaries. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded indirect tax credits of $22.5 million within other income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company also recorded $7.8 million of income tax expense associated with the recognition of these indirect tax credits.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The Company expects to be able to apply the tax credits received to settle the income tax liability that was incurred as a result of the credit. The Company also expects to utilize the majority of the credit against future PIS/COFINS and income tax
obligations over the next twelve months.

OVERVIEW
Titan International, Inc., together with its subsidiaries, is a global wheel, tire, and undercarriage industrial manufacturer and supplier that services customers across the globe. As a leading manufacturer in the off-highway industry, Titan produces a broad range of products to meet the specifications of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and aftermarket customers in the agricultural, earthmoving/construction, and consumer markets. Titan manufactures and sells certain tires under the Goodyear Farm Tire, Titan Tire and Voltyre-Prom Tire brands and has complete research and development facilities to validate tire and wheel designs.
Agricultural Segment: Titan’s agricultural wheels, tires, and components are manufactured for use on various agricultural equipment, including tractors, combines, skidders, plows, planters, and irrigation equipment, and are sold directly to OEMs and to the aftermarket through independent distributors, equipment dealers, and Titan’s distribution centers. The wheels range in diameter from nine inches to 54 inches, with the 54-inch diameter being the largest agricultural wheel manufactured in North America. Basic configurations are combined with distinct variations (such as different centers and a wide range of material thickness) allowing the Company to offer a broad line of products to meet customer specifications. Titan’s agricultural tires range from approximately one foot to approximately seven feet in outside diameter and from five inches to 55 inches in width. Agricultural tires are offered in Titan, Goodyear, and Votyre brands with a full portfolio of sizes, load carrying capabilities, and tread patterns necessary for the markets served. The Company offers the added value of delivering a complete wheel and tire assembly to OEM and aftermarket customers.
Earthmoving/Construction Segment: The Company manufactures wheels, tires, and undercarriage systems and components for various types of OTR earthmoving, mining, military, construction, and forestry equipment, including skid steers, aerial lifts, cranes, graders and levelers, scrapers, self-propelled shovel loaders, articulated dump trucks, load transporters, haul trucks, backhoe loaders, crawler tractors, lattice cranes, shovels, and hydraulic excavators. The Company provides OEM and aftermarket customers with a broad range of earthmoving/construction wheels ranging in diameter from 15 to 63 inches and in weight from 125 pounds to 7,000 pounds. The 63-inch diameter wheel is the largest manufactured for the global earthmoving/construction market. Titan’s earthmoving/construction tires are offered in the Titan brand and range from approximately three feet to approximately 13 feet in outside diameter and in weight from 50 pounds to 12,500 pounds. Earthmoving/construction

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
tires offered by Titan serve virtually every off-road application in the industry with some of the highest load requirements in the most severe applications. The Company also offers the added value of wheel and tire assembly for certain applications in the earthmoving/construction segment.
Consumer Segment: Titan manufactures bias truck tires in Latin America and light truck tires in Russia. Titan also offers select products for ATVs, side-by-sides, rock climbers, turf, and have recently expanded our offering into the lawn and garden segment with a major OE customer. This segment also includes sales that do not readily fall into the Company's other segments, such as custom rubber stock mixing sales to a variety of OEM's in tangential industries.
The Company’s top customers, including global leaders in agricultural and construction equipment manufacturing, have been purchasing products from Titan or its predecessors for numerous years. Customers including AGCO Corporation, Caterpillar Inc., CNH Global N.V., Deere & Company, Hitachi, Ltd., Kubota Corporation, Liebherr, and Volvo have helped sustain Titan’s market leading position in wheel, tire, assembly, and undercarriage products.
MARKET CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK
AGRICULTURAL MARKET OUTLOOK
Agriculture-related commodity prices continued to remain at historically high levels during the first two quarters of 2023. High farmer income and replacement of an aging large equipment fleet are both market conditions which are anticipated to support continued healthy demand for our products in the mid to long term time horizon. There are recent concerns over a slowdown in OEM customer demand due to their elevated inventory levels, particularly, in the Americas, resulting in uncertain demand in the near term. However, the underlying market conditions mentioned previously provide support for the mid to long term healthy demand for our products. Many more variables, including weather, volatility in the price of commodities, grain prices, export markets, foreign currency exchange rates, government policies, subsidies, and the demand for used equipment can greatly affect the Company's performance in the agricultural market in a given period.
EARTHMOVING/CONSTRUCTION MARKET OUTLOOK
The earthmoving/construction segment is affected by many variables, including commodity prices, road construction, infrastructure, government appropriations, housing starts, and other macroeconomic drivers. The construction market is primarily driven by GDP by country and the need for infrastructure developments. The earthmoving/construction markets experienced some slow down in OEM demand during the second quarter of 2023, particularly in the Americas, that we believe is not unrelated to the concerns over elevated inventory levels for small equipment. We expect a recovery and continued market stability over the mid to long term given the level of mining capital budgets and forecasted GDP growth. Mineral commodity prices are at relatively high levels that also currently support growth, while global recession concerns could impact demand in various parts of the world.
CONSUMER MARKET OUTLOOK
The consumer market consists of several distinct product lines within different regions. These products include light truck tires, turf equipment, specialty products, including custom mixing of rubber stock, and train brakes. The markets remained stable through the first quarter of 2023, but experienced some slow down during the second quarter of 2023 due to elevated inventory levels in Latin America. There are strong initiatives underway to bolster opportunities in various specialty products including mixing of rubber stock in the United States. The consumer segment pace of growth can vary from period to period and is affected by many variables including inflationary impacts, consumer spending, interest rates, government policies, and other macroeconomic drivers.

Net Sales
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $481.2 million, compared to $572.9 million in the comparable period of 2022, a decrease of 16.0% , due to sales decreases in all segments. Overall net sales decrease was primarily due to sales volume decrease caused by elevated inventory levels at our customers in the Americas, particularly OEM customers. The net sales decrease was also impacted by negative price/mix which was primarily due to lower steel prices, and unfavorable currency translation of 2.3%.
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $1,029.8 million, compared to $1,128.9 million in the comparable period of 2022, a decrease of 8.8%, due to sales decreases in all segments. Overall net sales decrease was primarily due to the reduced demand caused by aforementioned high inventory levels with customers. It was also impacted by negative price/mix which was due to lower steel prices, and unfavorable currency translation of 1.9%. Additionally, the Company sold its Australian wheel business in the first quarter of 2022 which resulted in a reduction of net sales of 0.9%, or $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $85.9 million, or 17.9% of net sales, a decrease of $23.8 million compared to $109.7 million, or 19.1% of net sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in gross profit and margin was primarily due to the lower sales volume, which resulted in lower overhead absorption, and the timing lag in higher material costs relative to contractual customer price reductions in the North America wheel business.
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $181.5 million, or 17.6% of net sales, a decrease of $14.9 million compared to $196.4 million, or 17.4% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in gross profit for six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the prior year period was due to the impact of lower sales volume in North America and the aforementioned factors experienced in the second quarter.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $34.9 million, or 7.2% of net sales, compared to $34.7 million, or 6.1% of net sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The slight increase in SG&A for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the prior year period was due to personnel related inflationary cost impacts.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $69.3 million, or 6.7% of net sales, compared to $70.9 million, or 6.3% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in SG&A for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the prior year period was due to the disposition of the Australian wheel business during the first quarter of 2022.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development (R&D) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $3.2 million, or 0.7% of net sales, compared to $2.2 million, or 0.4% of net sales, for the comparable period in 2022. R&D expenses for the six months ended

Financial Condition and Results of Operations
June 30, 2023 were $6.2 million, or 0.6% of net sales, compared to $5.2 million, or 0.5% of net sales, for the comparable period in 2022. R&D spending reflects initiatives to improve product designs and an ongoing focus on quality and innovation.
Royalty Expense
The Company has trademark license agreements with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company to manufacture and sell certain farm tires under the Goodyear brand. These agreements cover sales in North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Russia, and other Commonwealth of Independent States countries.
Royalty expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $1.9 million, or 0.4% of net sales, compared to $3.0 million, or 0.5% of net sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Royalty expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $4.9 million, or 0.5% of net sales, compared to $5.9 million, or 0.5% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decreases in royalty expenses for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the prior year periods were due to the decreases in net sales, as described previously.
Income from Operations
Income from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $45.9 million, compared to income from operations of $69.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $101.0 million, compared to income from operations of $114.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decreases in income from operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the prior year periods were primarily due to lower net sales and the net result of the items previously discussed.
OTHER PROFIT/LOSS ITEMS
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense was $5.8 million and $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $12.3 million and $15.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The decreases in interest expense for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2023 were due to the reduced borrowing under the Company's global credit facilities, as compared to the prior year periods, and increased interest income associated with financial investments in Latin America and the United States.
Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss)
Foreign exchange gain was insignificant for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to a gain of $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Foreign exchange loss was $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to a gain of $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Foreign exchange gain experienced during the three months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily the result of a favorable impact of the movement of exchange rates in certain geographies in which we conduct business, offset by an unfavorable impact of the translation of intercompany loans at certain foreign subsidiaries, which are denominated in local currencies rather than the reporting currency, which is the United States dollar. Since such loans are expected to be settled at some point in the future, these loans are adjusted each reporting period to reflect the current exchange rates. The foreign exchange loss experienced during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was the result of an unfavorable impact of the translation of intercompany loans at certain foreign subsidiaries, which are denominated in local currencies rather than the reporting currency, which is the United States dollar.

Other income was $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to other income of $14.8 million in the comparable period of 2022. The decrease in other income for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily attributable to miscellaneous income in 2022 that did not occur in 2023 which included $22.5 million indirect tax credits in Brazil, a gain of $1.3 million from a government grant associated with an earthquake that affected one of our Italian subsidiaries, and a loss of $10.9 million on sale of the Australian wheel business.
Provision for Income Taxes
The Company recorded income tax expense of $9.4 million and $19.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded income tax expense of $23.6 million and $27.7 million, respectively. The Company's effective income tax rate was 22.8% and 21.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 26.6% and 22.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the income tax expense each period differed due to an overall pre-tax income decrease which resulted in the fluctuation in the effective tax rate.
The Company’s 2023 and 2022 income tax expense and rates differed from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate to pre-tax income primarily as a result of foreign income tax rate differential on the mix of earnings, non-deductible royalty expenses in certain foreign jurisdictions, and certain permanent foreign inclusion items on the domestic provision.
On August 16, 2022, the “Inflation Reduction Act” (H.R. 5376) was signed into law in the United States. As part of the Inflation Reduction Act, the U.S. Congress enacted the corporate alternative minimum tax (CAMT). Titan does not currently expect the Inflation Reduction Act or CAMT to have a material impact on our financial results, including on our annual estimated effective tax rate.

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Liquidity Outlook
At June 30, 2023, the Company had $196.5 million of cash and cash equivalents. At June 30, 2023, there were no borrowings under the Company's $125 million credit facility. Titan's availability under this credit facility may be less than $125 million as a result of outstanding letters of credit and eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances at certain domestic subsidiaries. Based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances, the Company's amount available for borrowing totaled $117.9 million at June 30, 2023. With outstanding letters of credit totaling $6.2 million, the net amount available for borrowing under the credit facility totaled $111.7 million at June 30, 2023. The cash and cash equivalents balance of $196.5 million included $155.0 million held in foreign countries.
The Company is expecting full year capital expenditures to be approximately $55.0 million to $60 million. These capital expenditures are anticipated to be used primarily to continue to enhance the Company’s existing facilities and manufacturing capabilities and drive productivity gains, along with the purchase of new tools, dies and molds related to new product development.
Cash payments for interest are currently forecasted to be approximately $15.0 million for the remainder of 2023 based on June 30, 2023 debt balances. The forecasted interest payment is comprised primarily of the semi-annual payment of $14 million to be paid in October for the 7.00% senior secured notes.
Cash and cash equivalents along with anticipated internal cash flows from operations and utilization of availability on global credit facilities, are expected to provide sufficient liquidity for working capital needs, debt maturities, and capital expenditures. Potential divestitures and unencumbered assets are also a means to provide for future liquidity needs.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
There were no material changes in the Company’s Critical Accounting Estimates since the filing of the 2022 Form 10-K. As discussed in the 2022 Form 10-K, the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. Refer to Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies in Part I, Item 1, Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q for a discussion of the Company’s updated accounting policies.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Titan is exposed to market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, and commodity price fluctuations. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2022. For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Item 7A - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk included in the 2022 Form 10-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Titan management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)) as of June 30, 2023. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, Titan's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by Titan in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported accurately and within the time frames specified in the SEC's rules and forms and accumulated and communicated to Titan management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls
There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
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.
