MANITEX INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(in thousands, except per share data)
Note 1. Nature of Operations
Manitex International, Inc. (the Company) is a leading provider of engineered lifting solutions. The Company operates in two business segments the Lifting Equipment segment and the Equipment Distribution segment.
Lifting Equipment Segment
The Company designs, manufactures and distributes a diverse group of products that serve different functions and are used in a variety of industries. Through its Manitex, Inc. subsidiary it markets a comprehensive line of boom trucks and sign cranes. Manitexs boom trucks and crane products are primarily used for industrial projects, energy exploration and infrastructure development, including, roads, bridges and commercial construction. Its Badger Equipment Company subsidiary (Badger) acquired on July 10, 2009, is a manufacturer of specialized rough terrain cranes and material handling products, including a 30-ton model, the first in a new line of specialized high quality rough terrain cranes that the Company will be introducing. Badger primarily serves the needs of the construction, municipality, and railroad industries.
The Manitex Liftking ULC (Manitex Liftking or Liftking) subsidiary sells a complete line of rough terrain forklifts, including the Liftking and Noble product lines, a line of electric forklifts marketed under the Schaeff name, as well as special mission oriented vehicles, and other specialized carriers, heavy material handling transporters and steel mill equipment. Manitex Liftkings rough terrain forklifts are used in both commercial and military applications. Specialty mission oriented vehicles and specialized carriers are designed and built to meet the Companys unique customer needs and requirements. The Companys specialized lifting equipment has met the particular needs of customers in various industries that include utility, ship building and steel mill industries.
On December 31, 2009, the Companys subsidiary, Manitex Load King, Inc. (Load King), acquired the operating assets of Load King Trailers, an Elk Point, South Dakota-based manufacturer of specialized custom trailers and hauling systems, typically used for transporting heavy equipment. Load King trailers serve niche markets in the commercial construction, railroad, military, and equipment rental industries through a dealer network. Load King complements the Companys existing material handling business.
July 1, 2010, the Companys Italian subsidiary, CVS Ferrari, srl (CVS) entered into an agreement to rent certain assets of CVS SpA on an exclusive rental basis, during the Italian bankruptcy process (concordato preventivo). CVS SpA was located near Milan, Italy and designed and manufactured a range of reach stackers and associated lifting equipment for the global container handling market, which were sold through a broad dealer network. During the third quarter 2010, CVS Ferrari, srl commenced operations and uses the rental assets in its operations. On June 29, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement which was effective on July 1, 2011 with CVS SpA in Liquidation to acquire the assets that were being rented. See Note 19 for further information.
Equipment Distribution Segment
The Companys Crane & Machinery Division located in Bridgeview, Illinois, is a crane dealer that distributes Terex rough terrain and truck cranes, Fuchs material handlers, Manitex boom trucks and sky cranes. The Companys Crane & Machinery Division provides service in its local market and also supplies repair parts for a wide variety of medium to heavy duty construction equipment sold both domestically and internationally. Our crane products are used primarily for infrastructure development and commercial constructions. Applications include road and bridge construction, general contracting, roofing, scrap handling and sign construction and maintenance.
The Company believes that in the current environment, an option to purchase previously-owned equipment is a cost effective alternative that could increase customers return on investment. In the second quarter of 2010, the Company created a new division, North American Equipment Exchange, (NAEE) to market previously-owned equipment.
2. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements, included herein, have been prepared by the Company without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals, except as otherwise disclosed) necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys financial position as of September 30, 2011, and results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The consolidated balances as of December 31, 2010 were derived from audited financial statements but do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards for interim financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the year.
5
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts Receivable is reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. The Companys estimate for the allowance for doubtful accounts related to trade receivables includes evaluation of specific accounts where the Company has information that the customer may have an inability to meet its financial obligations.
Inventory Valuation
Inventory consists of stock materials and equipment stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market. All equipment classified as inventory is available for sale. The Company records excess and obsolete inventory reserves. The estimated reserve is based upon specific identification of excess or obsolete inventories. Selling, general and administrative expenses are expensed as incurred and are not capitalized as a component of inventory.
Accrued Warranties
The Company establishes a reserve for future warranty expense at the point when revenue is recognized by the Company. The provision for estimated warranty claims, which is included in cost of sales, is based on a percentage of sales.
Litigation Claims
In determining whether liabilities should be recorded for pending litigation claims, the Company must assess the allegations and the likelihood that it will successfully defend itself. When the Company believes it is probable that it will not prevail in a particular matter, it will then make an estimate of the amount of liability based, in part, on the advice of outside legal counsel.
Comprehensive Income
Reporting Comprehensive Income requires reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income includes, in addition to net earnings, other items that are reported as direct adjustments to stockholders equity. Currently, the comprehensive income adjustment required for the Company has two components. First is a foreign currency translation adjustment, the result of consolidating its foreign subsidiaries. The second component is a derivative instrument fair market value adjustment (net of income taxes) related to forward currency contracts designated as a cash flow hedge. See Note 4 for additional details. Comprehensive income is as follows:

3. Financial InstrumentsForward Currency Exchange Contracts
The following tables set forth the companys financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by ASC 820-10, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820-10 classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
Level 1 - | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; | |
Level 2 - | Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and | |
Level 3 - | Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). |
The fair value of the forward currency contracts are determined on the last day of each reporting period using quoted prices in active markets, which are supplied to the Company by the foreign currency trading operation of its bank. Under ASC 820-10, items valued based on quoted prices in active markets are Level 1 items.
The Load King purchase agreement has a contingent consideration provision which provides for a one-time payment of $750 if net revenues are equal to or greater than $30,000 in 2010, 2011 or 2012. Given the disparity between the revenue threshold and the Companys projected financial results, it was determined that a Monte Carlo simulation analysis was appropriate to determine the fair value of contingent consideration. It was determined that the probability weighted average earn out payment is $30. Based thereon, we determined the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $30.
4. Derivatives Financial Instruments
The Companys risk management objective is to use the most efficient and effective methods available to us to minimize, eliminate, reduce or transfer the risks which are associated with fluctuation of exchange rates between the Canadian and U.S. dollar. When the Companys Canadian subsidiary receives a significant new U.S. dollar order, management will evaluate different options that may be available to mitigate future currency exchange risks. The decision to hedge future sales is not automatic and is decided case by case. The Company will only use hedge instruments to hedge firm existing sales orders and not estimated exposure, when management determines that exchange risks exceeds desired risk tolerance levels.
7
The Company enters into forward currency exchange contracts in order to attempt to create a relationship such that the exchange gains and losses on the assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units functional currency would be offset by the changes in the market value of the forward currency exchange contracts it holds. The forward currency exchange contracts that the Company has to offset existing assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units functional currency have been determined not to be considered a hedge under ASC 815-10. The Company records at the balance sheet date the forward currency exchange contracts at its market value with any associated gain or loss being recorded in current earnings. Both realized and unrealized gains and losses related to forward currency contracts are included in current earnings and are reflected in the Statement of Operations in the other income expense section on the line titled foreign currency transaction gains/ (losses). Items denominated in other than a reporting units functional currency includes U.S. denominated accounts receivable and accounts payable held by our Canadian subsidiary. Our Italian subsidiarys payable to the parent Company is also an item denominated in other than the reporting units functional currency. We have purchased forward currency exchange contacts in order to create a relationship such that the exchange gains and loss on intercompany balances with our Italian subsidiary are offset by changes in the market value of the forward currency exchange contracts that the Company holds.
The Company entered into forward currency contracts to hedge certain future U.S. dollar sales of its Canadian Subsidiary. The decision to hedge future sales is not automatic and is decided on a case by case basis. The forward currency contracts to hedge future sales are designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815-10.
As required, forward currency contracts are recognized as an asset or liability at fair value on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings (date of sale). Gains or losses on cash flow hedges when recognized into income are included in net revenues. Gains and losses on the derivative instruments representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. The Company expects minimal ineffectiveness as the Company has hedged only firm sales orders and has not hedged estimated exposures. In the next twelve months, the company estimates $125 of pre-tax unrealized losses related to forward currency contract hedges to be reclassified from other comprehensive income into earnings.
At September 30, 2011, the Company had entered into a series of forward currency exchange contracts. The contracts obligate the Company to purchase approximately CDN $4,419 in total. The contracts which are in various amounts mature between October 3, 2011 and May 25, 2012. Under the contracts, the Company will purchase Canadian dollars at exchange rates between .9680 and 1.0399. The Canadian to U.S. dollar exchange rates was .9540 at September 30, 2011. Additionally, the Company has entered into a forward currency contract which matures on July 2, 2012 to sell 800 at 1.4214. The Euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate was 1.3503 at September 30, 2011.
The unrealized currency exchange asset is reported under prepaid expense and other if it is an asset or under accrued expenses if it is a liability on the balance sheet at September 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had the following forward currency contracts:

The Counterparty to currency exchange forward contracts is a major financial institution with credit ratings of investment grade or better and no collateral is required. Management continues to monitor counterparty risk and believes the risk of incurring losses on derivative contracts related to credit risk is unlikely.
5. Net Earnings per Common Share
Basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of warrants, and restricted stock units. Details of the calculations are as follows:

At September 30, 2011, there are 297,500 warrants which are anti-dilutive and therefore not included in the average number of diluted shares outstanding shown above. As of September 30, 2010 there are 966,500 warrants which are anti-dilutive and therefore not included in the average number of diluted shares outstanding shown above.
6. Equity
Stock Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants issued to non-employees based on the fair value on date of issuance. Certain warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis under certain circumstances, and are callable by the Company on a cashless basis under certain circumstances. At September 30, 2011, the Company had issued and outstanding warrants as follows:
Number of Warrants |
Exercise Price |
Expiration Date |
||||||
450,000 | $ | 4.05 | November 15, 2011 | Private placement | ||||
204,000 | $ | 4.25 | November 15, 2011 | Private placement | ||||

105,000 | $ | 7.18 | September 11, 2012 | Placement Agent Fee |
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 no warrants were exercised. On June 15, 2011, 15,000 warrants with a value of $45 expired without being exercised. Accordingly, the balance for warrants was reduced by $45 and the balance in paid in capital was increased by $45.
Stock Issuance
The Company issued shares of common stock to employees for restricted stock units issued under the Companys 2004 Incentive Plan, which had vested. The Company also repurchased shares from employees to satisfy employee withholding tax obligation. The shares were repurchased at the closing price on date the shares vested.

2004 Equity Incentive Plan
In 2004, the Company adopted the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and subsequently amended and restated the plan on September 13, 2007 and May 28, 2009. The maximum number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the plan is 500,000 shares. The total number of shares reserved for issuance however, can be adjusted to reflect certain corporate transactions or changes in the Companys capital structure. The Companys employees and members of the board of directors who are not our employees or employees of our affiliates are eligible to participate in the plan. The plan is administered by a committee of the board comprised of members who are outside directors. The plan provides that the committee has the authority to, among other things, select plan participants, determine the type and amount of awards, determine award terms, fix all other conditions of any awards, interpret the plan and any plan awards. Under the plan, the committee can grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units, except Directors may not be granted stock appreciation rights, performance
10
shares and performance units. During any calendar year, participants are limited in the number of grants they may receive under the plan. In any year, an individual may not receive options for more than 15,000 shares, stock appreciation rights with respect to more than 20,000 shares, more than 20,000 shares of restricted stock and/or an award for more than 10,000 performance shares or restricted stock units or performance units. The plan requires that the exercise price for stock options and stock appreciation rights be not less than fair market value of the Companys common stock on date of grant.
The following table contains information regarding restricted stock units as of September 30, 2011:

On January 1, 2011, the Company granted 10,000 restricted stock units to an employee pursuant to the Companys 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. The restricted stock units fully vested upon issuance.
On March 15, 2011, the Company granted an aggregate of 16,667 restricted stock units to four independent Directors pursuant to the Companys 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. Restricted stock units of 6,617, 4,950 and 5,100 vest on March 15, 2011, December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
The value of the restricted stock is being charged to compensation expense over the vesting period. Compensation expense includes expense related to restricted stock units of $8 and $10 for the three months and $95 and $77 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Additional compensation expense related to restricted stock units will be $8 and $28 for the remainder of 2011, and 2012, respectively.
7. New Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2010, the FASB issue ASU 2010-28, Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts (ASU 2010-28). ASU 2010-28 modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts and requires the company to perform Step 2 if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment may exist. ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. Under the guidance any impairment recorded upon adoption is recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of adoption. The guidance has been adopted as of January 1, 2011 and did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-29, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations (ASU 2010-29). This standard update clarifies that, when presenting comparative financial statements, SEC registrants should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the current period business combinations had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The update also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for material (either on an individual or aggregate basis) business combinations entered into in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010 with early adoption permitted. ASU 2010-29 is therefore effective for acquisitions made after January 1, 2010. The guidance has been adopted as of January 1, 2011 and may impact our disclosures for any future business combinations, but the effect will depend on acquisitions that may be made in the future.
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The amendments in this ASU generally represent clarification of Topic 820, but also include instances where a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements has changed. This update results in common principles and requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and are to be applied prospectively. Early application is not permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact, if any, that the adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have on its results of operations or its financial position.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05Presentation of Comprehensive Income (ASU 2011-05), requires entities to present reclassification adjustments included in other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements and allows entities to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. It also eliminates the option
11
for entities to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders equity. For public companies, ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years (and interim periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company will adopt these standards on January 1, 2012. Because ASU 2011-05 impacts presentation only, it will not a have a material effect on the Companys operating results or financial position. This update will, however, require the Company to change the presentation of its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350)Testing Goodwill for Impairment (ASU 2011-08), to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. The guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entitys financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. The Company is currently accessing the impact that ASU 2011-08 will have on its results of operations or its financial position.
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-09, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Multiemployer Plans. ASU 2011-09 is intended to enhance the disclosure requirements for employers participating in multiemployer pension plans to improve transparency and increase awareness of the commitments and risks involved with participation in multiemployer plans. The new accounting guidance requires employers participating in multiemployer plans to provide additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures to provide users with more detailed information regarding an employers involvement in multiemployer plans. The new standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this standard may expand our footnote disclosures but is not anticipated to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2011

The liability is established using historical warranty claim experience. Historical warranty experience is, however, reviewed by management. The current provision may be adjusted to take into account unusual or non-recurring events in the past or anticipated changes in future warranty claims. Adjustments to the initial warranty accrual are recorded if actual claim experience indicates that adjustments are necessary. Warranty reserves are reviewed to ensure critical assumptions are updated for known events that may impact the potential warranty liability.

12. Revolving Term Credit Facilities and Debt
Revolving Credit Facility
At September 30, 2011, the Company had drawn $19,086 under a revolving credit facility. The Company is eligible to borrow up to $22,500 with interest at the prime rate (prime was 3.25% at September 30, 2011). Alternatively, the Company can elect to take LIBOR based advances for a one, two or three month period, in which case interest is then equal to the applicable LIBOR interest rate plus 3.15%. At the end of specified period, the Company can elect to rollover the LIBOR based advance to another one, two or three month LIBOR based advance or can elect to convert the advance to a prime rate borrowing. The maximum amount available is limited to the sum of 85% of eligible receivables, and the lesser of 50% of eligible inventory or $14,000, plus $1,500. At September 30, 2011, the maximum the Company could borrow based on available collateral was capped at $21,335. The credit facilitys original maturity date was January 2, 2005. The maturity date was subsequently extended and the note is now due on April 1, 2015. The indebtedness is collateralized by substantially all of the Companys assets. The facility contains customary limitations including, but not limited to, limitations on acquisitions, dividends, repurchase of the Companys stock and capital expenditures. The agreement also requires the Company to have a Debt Service Ratio, as defined in the agreement of 1.25 to 1.0 and Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio, as defined in the agreement, of no greater than 5.25 to 1.0 through March 31, 2012, from June 30, 2012 through March 31, 2013 a ratio of no greater than 4.75 to 1.0 and on June 30, 2013 and thereafter a ratio of no greater than 4.25 to 1.0.
The agreement also provides that the bank is to receive an unused credit line fee in an amount equal to one-eighth percent per annum payable quarterly in arrears.
The agreement permits the Company to issue unsecured guarantees of indebtedness owed by CVS Ferrari, srl to foreign banks in respect to working capital financing, not to exceed the lesser of $5,000 or the amount of such financing. Additionally the agreement allows the Company to make or allow to remain outstanding any investment (whether such investment shall be of the character of investment of shares of stock, evidence of indebtedness or other securities or otherwise) in, or any loans or advances to CVS or to any other wholly-owned foreign subsidiary in an amount not to exceed $2,500.
The above summarizes the terms of the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2011. The Company executed certain amendments to its revolving credit facility between June 27, 2011 and June 29, 2011 and paid an amendment fee of $113. The amendments extended the maturity dates to April 1, 2015, increased the maximum borrowings to $22,500 from $20,500, modified advance formula, which increased the amount the Company can borrow, and decreases prime rate based interest rates by 1.5%. The amendment also added a provision which permits the Company to elect to take LIBOR based advances and added a new covenant which requires that the Company have a maximum Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio at the end of a quarter.
Revolving Canadian Credit Facility
At September 30, 2011, the Company had drawn US $5,608 under a revolving credit agreement with a bank. The Company is eligible to borrow up to CDN $6,500 or US $6,201. The maximum amount available is limited to the sum of (1) 85% of eligible receivables plus (2) the lesser of 35% of eligible work-in-process inventory or CDN $500 plus (3) the lesser of 50% of eligible inventory less work-in-process inventory or CDN $3,500. At September 30, 2011, the maximum the Company could borrow based on available collateral was CDN $6,263 or US $5,975. The indebtedness is collateralized by substantially all of Manitex Liftking ULCs assets. The Company can borrow in either U.S. or Canadian dollars. For the purposes of determining availability under the credit line, borrowings in U.S. dollars are converted to Canadian dollars based on the most favorable spot exchange rate determined by the bank to be available to it at the relevant time. Any borrowings under the facility in Canadian dollars bear interest at the Canadian prime rate (the Canadian prime was 3.0% at September 30, 2011) plus 0.5%. Any borrowings under the facility in U.S. dollars bear interest at the U.S. prime rate (prime was 3.25% at September 30, 2011). The credit facility has a maturity date of April 1, 2015.
The above summarizes the terms of the revolving Canadian credit facility as of September 30, 2011. The Company executed certain amendments to its revolving Canadian credit facility on June 29, 2011 and paid an amendment fee of $32. The amendments extended the maturity dates to April 1, 2015, increased the maximum borrowings to CDN $6,500 from CDN $5,500, modified advance formula, which increased the amount the Company can borrow, and decreases Canadian prime rate and U.S. prime rate based interest rates by 1.5%. The amendment also added a provision which permits the Company to elect to take LIBOR based U.S. dollar advance.

As such, the lender did not finance any additional equipment after June 3, 2010. The lenders decision did not impact any loans that were outstanding at June 3, 2010 and such loans continue under the terms and conditions that were in effect on the date the loan was made.
Under the floorplan agreement, the Company was permitted to borrow up to $2,000 for equipment financing. Borrowings are secured by all inventory financed by or leased from the lender and the proceeds there from. The terms and conditions of any loans, including interest rate, commencement date, and maturity date were determined by the lender upon its receipt of the Companys request for an extension of credit. The rate, however, may be increased upon the lender giving five days written notice to the Company.
The current balance $1,306 is comprised of borrowing of $706, $291 and $309 borrowed on December 30, 2008, January 12, 2009 and June 3, 2010, respectively. The terms under which funds were borrowed are discussed in the following paragraphs.

On January 12, 2009 the Company borrowed $400 at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate of interest, as published in the Wall Street Journal, plus 5% and has repaid $109.

The fair value of the promissory note was calculated to be equal to the present value of the future debt payments discounted at a market rate of return commensurate with similar debt instruments with comparable levels of risk and marketability.

13. Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including product liability, employment related issues, and workers compensation matters which have arisen in the normal course of operations. The Company has product liability insurance with self insurance retention that range from $50 to $1,000. Certain cases are at a preliminary stage, and it is not possible to estimate the amount or timing of any cost to the Company. However, the Company does not believe that these contingencies, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company. When it is probable that a loss has been incurred and possible to make a reasonable estimate of the Companys liability with respect to such matters, a provision is recorded for the amount of such estimate or the minimum amount of a range of estimates when it is not possible to estimate the amount within the range that is most likely to occur.
One of our insurance carriers has denied coverage for two product liability claims. The Company believes the insurance companies basis for denial of coverage is improper. As such, the Company has engaged outside legal representation to challenge the insurance companies denial of coverage. Currently, the Company is engaged in a declaratory judgment action which contests the denial of coverage. This suit was filed by Colony National Insurance Company against Manitex LLC, Manitex Inc., Manitex Skycrane, LLC, Quantum Equipment, LLC f/k/a Quantum Heavy Equipment, LLC, Quantum Value Management, LLC, Quantum Value Partners, LP and JLG Industries, Inc. It was filed October 2, 2009 in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, Austin Division, case number A09CA724. The Lexington Insurance Company that provides excess coverage over the Colony policy filed a motion to intervene in this action December 8, 2009. That motion has been granted. Colony and Lexington seek a ruling by the court that the defense of JLG in the underlying product liability litigation is not covered by their policies.
17
In its complaint, Colony and Lexington have asserted several grounds for its denial of coverage and the Company has answered the Colony complaint and filed a counterclaim against Colony alleging its right to coverage and seeking its costs for JLG Industries defense and related costs. The Company believes that it has a meritorious position on coverage under both policies.
On November 16, 2010 the Court granted the Companys motion for Summary Judgment finding that Colony did have a duty to defend the two product liability claims. Colony and Lexington have been granted leave to appeal the decision to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. The Company believes that the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals will affirm the District Courts decision and that the Company will prevail on the coverage issue under both policies.
On May 5, 2011, the Company entered into two (2) separate Settlement Agreements with the two (2) Plaintiffs in the underlying product liability lawsuits. Pursuant to these agreements, if the Courts decision in the Declaratory Judgment action is affirmed, which the Company believes it will be, the Plaintiffs will have the opportunity to pursue their recovery solely and exclusively against either or both of the liability insurance carriers, and the Company itself shall have no liability to the Plaintiffs. If, after all appeals in the Declaratory Judgment action, it is determined that there was no duty on the part of the liability insurance carriers to defend the Company, which the Company believes is unlikely, the Company will be liable to the Plaintiffs in the total amount of $1.9 million, payable in equal annual installments over a period of twenty (20) years without interest, beginning at the conclusion of the Declaratory Judgment action.
It is reasonably possible that the Estimated Reserve for Product Liability Claims may change within the next 12 months. A change in estimate could occur if a case is settled for more or less than anticipated, or if additional information becomes known to the Company.
14. Business Segments

18. CVS Operating Agreement
Manitex International, Inc. announced on June 30, 2010, that its newly formed Italian subsidiary, CVS Ferrari, srl, had entered into an agreement which allows CVS Ferrari srl to use certain assets of CVS SpA on an exclusive rental basis, during the Italian bankruptcy process (concordato preventivo). CVS SpA was located near Milan, Italy and designed and manufactured a range of reach stackers and associated lifting equipment for the global container handling market, which were sold through a broad dealer network.
During July 2010 the Italian court administrator of CVS SpA approved the Companys agreement to use certain assets of CVS SpA. This agreement is on a monthly rental fee basis and is for duration of up to two years as the Italian insolvency process, concordato preventivo proceeds. Under this process, the creditors of CVS SpA and the court administrator will determine the resolution of the insolvency of CVS SpA. The administrator can elect to sell the assets of CVS SpA either in whole or piecemeal. Under the agreement, CVS Ferrari srl assumed no prior liabilities of the CVS SpA business, and can use the rented CVS SpA assets for its own benefit but must return the assets at the expiration of the agreement. As part of its agreement the Company also agreed to enter into a standby letter of credit for one million Euros to guarantee its commitments under the agreement. Also included, and subject to the agreement of the creditors, and the court process, was an offer to purchase the rental assets.
On September 24, 2010, Comerica Bank issued a 1,000 standby letter in fulfillment of CVSs obligations under the rental agreement. The standby letter of credit expires on July 31, 2012. Although Comerica has a security interest in substantially all the assets of the Company to support the standby letter of credit issued by Comerica, the issuance of the standby letter of credit does not impact the Companys availability under its revolving credit facilities that it has with Comerica.
On June 29, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with CVS SpA in Liquidation to purchase on July 1, 2011 the assets that were being rented. The operating agreement was terminated on July 1, 2011, when the rented assets were transferred to CVS Ferrari srl. See Note 19 for further details.

(1) | Under the terms of the purchase agreement 2,350 payable without interest with 17 payable within 90 days of July 1, 2011 and the balance of 2,333 in bi-annual payment of 468 every 6 months being on December 31, 2011. It was determined that the present value of the 2,333 note is 2,218 based on 4% discount interest rate. It was determined that a 4% rate was appropriate taking into account current interest rates and the inherent risk. |
(2) | The non-cash consideration is comprised of the present value of the above described note of 2,218 and 66 which represents two payment of 33 related to Cabletronic agreement which are payable on October 30, 2011 and January 12, 2012, respectively. |
(3) | The CVS acquisition was consummated in Euros. The U.S dollar conversions above and elsewhere in this note are based on the exchange rates on the transaction date. As such, the balances in U.S. dollars shown above will differ from the amounts reflected in our September 30, 2011 balance sheet and other notes in the our financial statements as exchanges rates on July 1, 2011 and September 30, 2011 are different. |
Purchase Agreements
On June 29, 2011, CVS Ferrari srl (the Purchaser), an Italian Corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Manitex International, Inc. (the Company), entered into a purchase agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with CVS SpA in Liquidation (the Seller) to acquire on July 1, 2011 for 2,817 (approximately $4,089) (1) rights, designs and drawings for all products previously manufactured by CVS SpA including reach stackers, straight mast container handlers, straddle carriers and tractors and (2) certain machinery and equipment used to manufacture the aforementioned items.
The purchase price is payable as follows: 467 ($630) upon signing the agreement, 17 ($23) within 90 days of July 1, 2011, and the remaining balance in five semi-annual installments of 467 ($630) payable on each December 30 and June 30 through December 30, 2013. No interest is accrued or payable on the deferred portion of the purchase price.
The fair value of the promissory note was calculated to be equal to the present value of the future debt payments discounted at a market rate of return commensurate with similar debt instruments with comparable levels of risk and marketability. A rate of interest of 4% was determined to be the appropriate rate following an assessment of the risk inherent in the debt issue and the market rate for debt of this nature using corporate credit ratings criteria. The calculated fair value of the deferred amount of 2,350 ($3,411) was 2,218 ($3,219). The difference between face amount of the promissory note and its fair value is being amortized over the life of the note.
The obligation under the purchase agreement is secured by an existing guarantee of 1,000 (approximately $1,400) issued by Unicredit SPA which expires on June 30, 2012. The Unicredit SPA guarantee is supported by a standby letter of credit issued by Comerica Bank which also expires on June 30, 2012. The purchase agreement requires the Company to replace the existing guarantee when it expires with a new guarantee issued by Unicredit SPA in an amount equal to the outstanding balance.
Cabletronic Agreement
On June 29, 2011, The Company and Cabletronic srl entered into a separate agreement. Under the agreement, the Company agreed to pay Cabletronics 100 (approximately $145) in exchange for the software or electronic know-how (including source code) and all rights to said software and electronic know-how currently used to manufacture and operate the products acquired from CVS SpA. Additionally, Cabletronic also agreed to supply only to CVS Ferrari srl the hardware on which to run the software for a three year period ending June 30, 2014. The 100 is payable as follows: 34 upon signing of the contract, 33 ($45) on October 30, 2011 and 33($45) on January 12, 2012.
Assumed Liabilities
In connection with the transactions, the Company assumed the liability of $ 500 (approximately $726).
Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total acquisition consideration is allocated to the assets acquired based on their fair values as of the date of the acquisition as shown below.
Machinery and equipment: The fair value of the machinery and equipment was determined by management relaying in part on an independent appraisal of the machinery and equipment.
Intangible assets: There are three fundamental methods applied to value intangible assets outlined in FASB ASC 820. These methods include the Cost Approach, the Market Approach, and the Income Approach. Each of these valuation approaches was considered in our estimation of value.
22
Trade names and trademarks and patented and unpatented technology: Valued using the Relief from Royalty method, a form of both the Market Approach and the Income Approach. Because the Company has established trade names and trademarks and has developed patented and patented technology, we estimated the benefit of ownership as the relief from the royalty expense that would need to be incurred in absence of ownership.
Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess of total consideration paid and the fair value of net assets acquired. The recognition of goodwill of $914 reflects the inherent value in the CVSs reputation, which has been built since being founded in 1982. CVS has a reputation for quality and technical proficiency acquired by continued development of a robust and superior product and after sales service, with products in use across the global container handling and inter-modal markets. The entire amount of goodwill in this transaction is associated with our Lifting Equipment Segment.
Conditional Future Purchase Commitment
On June 29, 2011, upon the signing of the Purchase Agreement a conditional commitment became effective to purchase the building in which CVS Ferrari srl operates. Under the agreement, CVS Ferrari srl has a commitment to purchase the building at the conclusion of a rental period that ends on June 30, 2014 for 9,200. The commitment to purchase the building is contingent on CVS Ferrari srl being able to secure a mortgage on market terms for 75% of the purchase price. During the rental period, CVS Ferrari srl rent will remain fixed at 360 ($486) per year.
Pro forma results
Pro forma results have not been provided in connection with the CVS acquisitions as they are not relevant. Pro forma information is not available as CVS SpA in Liquidation did not operate during 2009.
20. Subsequent Event
On November 2, 2011, Load King, refinanced and paid off the Load King acquisition note payable to Genie Industries, Inc. a subsidiary of Terex Corporation, which had a remaining book balance of $2,493 and a face amount of $2,603. The Company and Genie agreed that in exchange for pre payment of the note, that the principal amount of the note to Genie would be reduced by $300 to $2,303. On November 2, 2011, the Company remitted, and Genie accepted $2,303 plus accrued interest of $14 as full payment of the Note. The Company borrowed $2,115 from the South Dakota Board of Economic Development and a bank. The funds were used to repay Genie. The terms of the new financings are favorable as they are at lower the interest rates and extends the repayment term. See our Current Report filed on Form 8-K with Security and Exchange Commission on November 8, 2011 for further details.

OVERVIEW
The Company is a leading provider of engineered lifting solutions. The Company operates in two business segments the Lifting Equipment segment and the Equipment Distribution segment.
Lifting Equipment Segment
The Company is a leading provider of engineered lifting solutions. The Company designs, manufactures and distributes a diverse group of products that serve different functions and are used in a variety of industries. Through its Manitex, Inc. subsidiary it markets a comprehensive line of boom trucks and sign cranes. Manitexs boom trucks and crane products are primarily used for industrial projects, energy exploration and infrastructure development, including, roads, bridges and commercial construction. Its Badger Equipment Company (Badger) subsidiary, acquired on July 10, 2009, is a manufacturer of specialized rough terrain cranes and material handling products, including a 30-ton model introduced in October 2009, the first in a new line of specialized high quality rough terrain cranes. Badger primarily serves the needs of the construction, municipality, and railroad industries.
Through its Manitex Liftking ULC (Manitex Liftking or Liftking) subsidiary, the Company also sells a complete line of rough terrain forklifts, a line of stand-up electric forklifts, cushioned tired forklifts with lifting capacities from 18 thousand to 40 thousand pounds, and special mission oriented vehicles, as well as other specialized carriers, heavy material handling transporters and steel mill equipment. Manitex Liftkings rough terrain forklifts are used in both commercial and military applications. Specialty mission oriented vehicles and specialized carriers are designed and built to meet the Companys unique customer needs and requirements. The Companys specialized lifting equipment has met the particular needs of customers in various industries that include utility, ship building and steel mill industries.
Our subsidiary, Manitex Load King, Inc. (Load King) located in Elk Point, South Dakota manufactures specialized custom trailers and hauling systems typically used for transporting heavy equipment. Load King Trailers serve niche markets in the commercial construction, railroad, military, and equipment rental industries through a dealer network. Load King complements our existing material handling business.
On July 1, 2010, the Companys newly formed Italian subsidiary, CVS Ferrari, srl, entered into an agreement to rent certain assets of CVS SpA, on an exclusive rental basis, while CVS SpA proceeds through the Italian bankruptcy process (concordato preventivo). CVS SpA was located near Milan, Italy and designed and manufactured a range of reach stackers and associated lifting equipment for the global container handling market, which were sold through a broad dealer network. During the third quarter 2010, CVS Ferrari, srl commenced operations and employed the rental assets in its operations. On July 1, 2011, the Company purchased the assets which were previously being rented.
Distribution Equipment Segment
The Company operates a crane dealership located in Bridgeview, Illinois that distributes Terex rough terrain and truck cranes, Fuchs material handlers, and Manitex boom trucks and sky cranes. We treat these operations as a separate reporting segment entitled Equipment Distribution. Our Equipment Distribution segment also supplies repair parts for a wide variety of medium to heavy duty construction equipment sold both domestically and internationally. Our crane products are used primarily for infrastructure development and commercial construction; applications include road and bridge construction, general contracting, roofing, scrap handling and sign construction and maintenance.
In the second quarter of 2010, we expanded our Equipment Distribution segment by creating a new division, North American Equipment Exchange, (NAEE) to market previously-owned construction and heavy equipment, domestically and internationally. This division provides a wide range of used lifting and construction equipment of various ages and condition, and the Company has the capability to refurbish the equipment to the customers specification.

Customer and Suppliers Concentrations
At September 30, 2011, one customer accounted for 13.3% of the Companys total accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2010 one customer accounted for 13% of total Company accounts receivables.
For the three months ended September 30, 2011, one customer accounted for 13.2% of the Companys net revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, one customer accounted for 13.8% of the Companys net revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, no customers accounted for 10.0% or more of the Companys net revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 one customer accounted for 14.1% of the Companys net revenue. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, no supplier accounted for 10% or more of total Company purchases.
Recent Economic Conditions
Beginning in September of 2008, the United States and world financial markets came under unprecedented stress. The immediate impact was a dramatic decrease in liquidity and credit availability throughout the world. An incredibly rapid and significant deterioration in economic conditions, especially in the United States and Europe followed. These events had an immediate significant adverse impact on the Company. Currently, the market for our products has stabilized and selective markets have grown, particularly the energy, and power distribution sectors domestically and in certain international markets. Our orders and revenues have shown marked improvement but generally remain significantly below pre-2008 levels. We are cautiously optimistic about the future. However, there is still significant risk and uncertainty in the world markets, which could impact our future business.
Our total backlog has increased steadily during the past 12 months. In response, we have taken actions to selectively increase production capacity, including hiring additional manufacturing employees at certain of our facilities.
Factors Affecting Revenues and Gross Profit
The Company derives most of its revenue from purchase orders from dealers and distributors. The demand for the Companys products depends upon the general economic conditions of the markets in which the Company competes. The Companys sales depend in part upon its customers replacement or repair cycles. Adverse economic conditions, including a decrease in commodity prices, may cause customers to forego or postpone new purchases in favor of repairing existing machinery. Additionally, our Manitex Liftking subsidiary revenues are impacted by the timing of orders received for military forklifts and residential housing starts.
Gross profit varies from period to period. Factors that affect gross profit include product mix, production levels and cost of raw materials. Margins tend to increase when production is skewed towards larger capacity cranes, special mission oriented vehicles, specialized carriers and heavy material transporters.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income for the three month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 the Company had a net income of $1.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively.
For the three months ended September 30, 2011, the net income of $1.0 million consisted of revenue of $37.0 million, cost of sales of $29.1 million, research and development costs of $0.4 million, SG&A expenses of $5.1 million, interest expense of $0.7 million and income tax expense of $0.5 million.
For the three months ended September 30, 2010, the net income of $0.7 million consisted of revenue of $24.9 million, cost of sales of $19.0 million, research and development costs of $0.3 million, SG&A expenses of $4.0 million, interest expense of $0.6 million, a gain of foreign currency transaction gain of $0.1 million and income tax expense of $0.3 million
Net Revenues and Gross Profit For the three months ended September 30, 2011, net revenues and gross profit were $37.0 million and $7.8 million, respectively. Gross profit as a percent of revenues was 21.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2011. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, net revenues and gross profit were $24.9 million and $5.9 million, respectively. Gross profit as a percent of revenues was 23.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2010.
Net revenues increased $12.1 million to $37.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $24.9 million for the comparable period in 2010. Approximately 45% of the increase in revenues is the result of increased revenues from our CVS operation, which only commenced operations in the third quarter of 2010 and, therefore, only had limited revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Approximately two thirds of the remaining 55% increase in revenues is attributed to an increase in boom truck revenues. Boom truck revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were up more than 40% as compared to revenues for the three months period ended September 30, 2010. The increase in boom truck sales is largely due to strength in the energy and power distribution market segments, both domestically and in certain international markets. Although boom truck sales are up substantially, they are still depressed compared to pre-2008 levels. The remaining one third increase is principally related to increases in Load King trailers and used construction equipment sales.
26
Decreases in revenues from the sale of military and government equipment at our Liftking operation was offset by increased commercial business. Although military and governmental sales are lower for 2011 as compared to 2010, they are still making a contribution to 2011 revenues. Military and governmental sales have historically been cyclical.
Our gross profit as a percentage of net revenues decreased 2.4% to 21.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from 23.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in gross profit margin percent is principally due to a decrease in gross margin percent for our material handling products. The decrease is largely attributed to a change in product mix, including a decrease in higher margin military and governmental sales. An increase in sales of used equipment, which has lower margins, also contributed to the decrease in our gross margin percent. The aforementioned decrease in gross margin percent was partially offset by a very modest increase in the gross profit percent for our crane products and significant improvement in the gross margin percent for Load King trailers, largely the result of an increased volume.
Selling, general and administrative expense Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $5.1 million compared to $4.0 million for the comparable period in 2010, an increase of $1.1 million. Approximately $0.5 million of the increase is due to increased selling, general and administrative expenses in our CVS subsidiary. CVSs selling, general and administrative are up as expected, since the CVS business was only commencing to operate in the third quarter of 2010. Selling, general and administrative expenses in CVS as a percent of revenues are now consistent with our other operations. The balance of the increase is principally due to higher compensation expense related to additional provisions for performance based compensation and due to selected increase in staffing.
Operating income For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company had operating income of $2.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The increase in operating income is due to an increase in gross profit of $2.0 million offset by $1.2 million increase in operating expenses. An increase in revenues accounts for the increase in gross profit as the gross profit percent decreased 2.4% between the third quarter 2010 and 2011. The increase in operating expenses is principally related to an increase in selling, general and administrative cost, which is explained above.
Interest expense Interest expense was $0.7 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Foreign currency transaction gains The Company attempts to purchase forward currency exchange contracts such that the exchange gains and losses on the assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units functional currency will be offset by the changes in the market value of the forward currency exchange contracts it holds.
For the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company had a foreign currency transaction loss of $0.02 million. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, the Company had a foreign currency gain of $0.07 million.
Income tax For the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $0.5 million, which consisted primarily of anticipated federal alternative minimum tax, current year state and local tax and foreign taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $0.3 million, which consisted primarily of anticipated federal alternative minimum tax, current year state and local tax and foreign taxes. The effective taxes rates are 34.9% and 33.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Net income Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $1.0 million. This compares with a net income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 of $0.7 million. The change in net income is explained above.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 the Company had a net income of $2.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the net income of $2.5 million consisted of revenue of $105.7 million, cost of sales of $84.0 million, research and development costs of $1.1 million, SG&A expenses of $14.9 million, interest expense of $1.9 million and income tax expense of $1.4 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the net income of $1.2 million consisted of revenue of $66.3 million, cost of sales of $50.7 million, research and development costs of $0.9 million, SG&A costs of $11.2 million, restructuring expenses of $0.2 million, interest expense of $1.8 million, a foreign currency transaction loss of $0.1 million, other income of $0.2 million and income tax expense of $0.6 million
27
Net Revenues and Gross Profit For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net revenues and gross profit were $105.7 million and $21.8 million, respectively. Gross profit as a percent of revenues was 20.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, net revenues and gross profit were $66.3 million and $15.7 million, respectively. Gross profit as a percent of revenues was 23.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
Net revenues increased $39.4 million to $105.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $66.3 million for the comparable period in 2010. Slightly more that 60% is attributed to increases in revenues generated by CVS and NAEE, two thirds of which is attributable to the fact that CVS and NAEE (began operating in late June 2010) did not have any operations in the first six months of 2010. The other third is attributed to an increase in third quarter revenues at CVS and NAE, which is largely attributed to the fact that NAEE and CVS were only start-up operations during the third quarter 2010. The remaining 40% increase in revenues is principally attributed to increased revenues for our boom trucks. The increase in boom truck sales is largely due to strength in the energy and power distribution market segments, both domestically and in certain international markets. Although boom truck sales are up substantially, they are still depressed compared to pre-2008 levels. A substantial portion of the significant decrease in military revenues at Liftking operation was offset by an increase in lower margin commercial business and by increased sales of Load King specialized trailers.
Our gross profit as a percentage of net revenues decreased 3.0% to 20.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from 23.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. An improvement in the gross margin percent for crane products was more than offset by a decrease in the margin percent for our other products. The improvement in the gross profit percent for crane products is attributed to a change in product mix towards high capacity cranes which have a higher gross profit margin and an increase in volume. The decrease in the gross profit percent for other products is principally attributed to a decrease in higher margin military and governmental business, and the sales of used equipment which has a margin roughly half of that of our new product sales. Increases in commodity prices, principally steel, is not a principal cause of the decrease in the gross margin percent. Nevertheless, the increase in commodity prices, however, did have a modest negative impact on our gross profit percent.
Selling, general and administrative expense Selling, general and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $14.9 million compared to $11.1 million for the comparable period in 2010, an increase of $3.7 million.
Approximately 70% of the increase is related to increased selling, general and administrative expenses at CVS and NAEE, attributed to the fact NAEE and CVS only began operating in June and July 2010, respectively. As such these operations had essentially no selling, general and administrative expenses for six months ended June 30, 2010 and CVS had only had limited expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2010, as CVS was still in a start-up mode during the third quarter of 2010. The majority of the remaining 30% increase is attributed to an increase in selling expense and higher compensation expense related to additional provisions for performance based compensation, a restoration of prior salary reductions and selected increase in staffing. Selling expense increase primarily as the Company spent $0.5 million to attend 2011 Con Expo trade show. The Con Expo show, which is held every three years, was held in Las Vegas in March of this year. This show is an international gathering place for the construction industries. It is estimated that 120,000 professionals from around the world attended the show. Increased revenues also contributed to the increase in selling expenses. Other less significant factors, including higher travel expenses, also contributed to the increase in selling, general and administrative expense.
Operating income For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company had operating income of $5.7 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The increase in operating income is due to an increase in gross profit of $6.1 million offset by $3.8 million increase in operating expenses. An increase in revenues accounts for the increase in gross profit as the gross profit percent decreased 3.0% between nine months ended September 30, 2011 and nine months ended September 310, 2010. The increase in operating expenses is primarily related to increases in selling, general and administrative expense, which is explained above.
Interest expense Interest expense was $1.9 million and $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Foreign currency transaction gains The Company attempts to purchase forward currency exchange contracts such that the exchange gains and losses on the assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units functional currency will be offset by the changes in the market value of the forward currency exchange contracts it holds.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company had a foreign currency transaction gain of $0.03 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company had a foreign currency loss of $0.07 million.
Income tax For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $1.4 million which consisted primarily of anticipated federal alternative minimum tax, current year state and local tax and foreign taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $0.6 million which consisted primarily of anticipated federal alternative minimum tax, current year state and local tax and foreign taxes. The effective taxes rates are 35.3% and 33.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
28
Net income Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $2.5 million. This compares with a net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 of $1.1 million. The change in net income is explained above.

Net Revenues
Net revenues increased $11.4 million to $33.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $22.2 million for the comparable period in 2010. Approximately 50% of the increase in revenues is the result of increased revenues from our CVS operation, which only commenced operations in the third quarter of 2010 and, therefore, only had limited revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Approximately 70% of the remaining increase in revenues is attributed to an increase in boom truck revenues. Boom truck revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were up more than 40% as compared to revenues for the three months period ended September 30, 2010. The increase in boom truck sales is largely due to strength in the energy and power distribution market segments, both domestically and in certain international markets. Although boom truck sales are up substantially, they are still depressed compared to pre-2008 levels. The balance of the increase is principally related to increases in Load King trailers.
Net revenues increased $34.7 million to $96.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $61.8 million for the comparable period in 2010. Of this increase $19.7 million is due to an increase in revenues at CVS, as CVS had no revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2010 (commenced operating in the third quarter 2010) and only limited revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2010 as CVS was still in a start-up mode during the third quarter of 2010. The remaining $15.0 million increase is principally attributed to increased revenues for our boom trucks. The increase in boom truck sales is largely due to strength in the energy and power distribution market segments, both domestically and in certain international markets. Although boom truck sales are up substantially, they are still depressed compared to pre-2008 levels. A substantial portion of the significant decrease in military revenues at our Liftking operation was offset by an increase in lower margin commercial business and by increased sales of Load King specialized trailers. Although military and governmental sales are lower for 2011 as compared to 2010, they are still making a significant contribution to 2011 revenues. Military and governmental sales have historically been cyclical.
Operating Income and Operating Margins
Operating income of $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was equivalent to 10.7% of net revenues compared to an operating income of $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 or 8.9% of net revenues. The increase in operating income is due to an increase in gross profit of $2.1 million offset by increased operating expense of $0.5million. The increase in gross profit is due to the significant increase in revenues as the gross profit percent decreased 1.9% to 21.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from 23.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease is largely attributed to a change in product mix, including a decrease in higher margin military and governmental sales. The aforementioned decrease in gross margin percent was partially offset by a very modest increase in the gross profit percent for our crane products and significant improvement in the gross margin percent for Load King trailers, largely the result of an increased volume. The increase in operating expense is attributed to increases in selling, general and administrative expenses in our CVS subsidiary. CVSs selling, general and administrative are up as expected, since the CVS business was only commencing to operate in the third quarter of 2010. Selling, general and administrative expense in CVS as a percent of revenues is now consistent with our other operations.
Operating income of $9.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was equivalent to 9.5% of net revenues compared to an operating income of $5.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 or 9.0% of net revenues. The increase in operating income is due to an increase in gross profit of $5.7 million offset by increased operating expense of $1.8 million. The increase in gross profit is due to the significant increase in revenues as the gross profit percent decreased 2.7% to 21.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from 23.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. An improvement in the gross margin percent for crane products was more than offset by a decrease in the margin percent for our other products. The improvement in the gross profit percent for crane products is attributed to a change in product mix towards high capacity cranes which have a higher gross profit margin and an increase in volume. The decrease in the gross profit percent for other products is principally attributed to a decrease in higher margin military and governmental business. The increase in operating expense is principally related to operating expenses at CVS, a subsidiary that did not commence operations until the third quarter of 2010.

Net revenues Net revenues increased $0.7 million to $3.3million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $2.6 million for the comparable period in 2010. Approximately half the increase relates to the sale of new equipment during the third quarter 2011. Increases in revenues from the sales of used equipment, crane service and crane rental together accounted for the remaining increase.
Net revenues increased $4.7 million to $9.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $4.5 million for the comparable period in 2010. Approximately 65% of the increase is related to an increase in the sale of used construction equipment. Used equipment sales are up primarily because the Distribution segment did not begin selling used equipment until June 2010. Additionally, the Distribution segment new equipment sales accounted for approximately 15% of the increase. The remaining increase is principally attributed to an increase in part sales although increases in service revenues and crane rental income also made smaller contributions to the increase.
Operating loss and Operating Margins The Distribution segment had an operating income of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011and $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in operating revenues is due a small decrease in gross profit coupled with a small increase in operating expenses. A lower gross profit percent, due to a change in product mix, caused the decrease in gross profit.
The Distribution segment had operating income of $0.1 million for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and an operating loss of $(0.1) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. In 2010, the Distribution Equipment segment hired additional staff to fill either vacancies or to fill newly created positions. We felt that these additional hires were a necessary investment for the future. The increases in cost related to the new hires are being offset by increased revenues in 2011 and results in an increase in operating income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents were $0.8 million at September 30, 2011 compared to $0.7 million at December 31, 2010. In addition, the Company has both a U.S. and Canadian revolving credit facility, with maturity dates of April 1, 2015. At September 30, 2011 the Company had approximately $2.6 million available to borrow under these credit facilities.
Additionally, CVS has agreements with six Italian banks under which CVS can borrow 0.1 million ($0.1 million) on an unsecured basis and up to an additional 2.5 million ($3.4 million) against specific orders, invoices and letters of credit. As of September 30, 2011, CVS had received advances of 0.9 million ($1.3 million). The amount of future advances is dependent on open orders, invoices and letters of credits that exist at the time an advance is requested. The percent that the bank will advance is dependent on both the nature of documents against which they are advancing and the credit worthiness of the customer.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, total debt increased by $9.27 million to $43.2 million at September 30, 2011 from $34.0 million at December 31, 2010.

Future availability under credit facilities
As stated above, the Company had cash of $0.8 million and approximately $2.6 million available to borrow under its credit facilities at September 30, 2011. Additionally, CVS has agreements with six Italian banks under which CVS can borrow 0.1 million ($1.1 million) on an unsecured basis and up to an additional 2.5 million ($3.4 million) against specific orders, invoices and letters of credit. As of September 30, 2011, CVS had received advances of 0.9 million ($1.3 million) from the banks. Any future advances against the Italian facilities are dependent on having available collateral.
The Company needs cash to fund normal working capital needs and to make scheduled debt payments as shown in the above table. Both the U.S. and Canadian credit facilities are asset based. The maximum the Company may borrow under either facility is the lower of the credit line or the available collateral, as defined in the credit agreements. Collateral under the agreements consists of stated percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Beginning in September 2008, the financial markets in the United States and globally came under incredible stress. A substantial deterioration in economic conditions, especially in the United States and Europe followed. As a result, the Company has seen a significant contraction in its business and borrowing collateral. Recently, we have seen certain sectors of the economy showing signs of improving, particularly the energy, and power distribution sectors domestically and certain international markets. As a result, we have increased our inventories to support future sales growth. The collateral formula for the U.S. credit facility limits borrowing against inventory to 50% of eligible inventory (work in process inventory is excluded) and caps total borrowing against our inventory at $14.0 million. In the future, the provision limiting borrowing against inventory to 50% of eligible inventory may result in additional cash constraints. However, the Company expects cash flows from operations and existing availability under the current revolving credit facilities, nevertheless, will be adequate to fund future operations. If in the future, we were to determine that additional funding is necessary, we believe that it would be available.
We will likely need to raise additional capital through debt or equity financings to support our growth strategy, which may include additional acquisitions. There is no assurance that such financing will be available or, if available, on acceptable terms.
2011
Operating activities consumed $4.5 million of cash for the three months ended September 30, 2011 comprised of net income of $2.5 million, non-cash items that totaled $3.8 million and changes in assets and liabilities, which consumed $10.7 million. The principal non-cash items are depreciation and amortization of $2.5 million, a decrease in deferred tax assets of $0.9 million and an increase in inventory reserves of $0.2 million.
Increases in accounts payable of $1.8 million and decrease in prepaid expenses of $0.3 million which generated cash were more than offset by the following items which consumed cash: increases in accounts receivable of $3.7 million, inventory of $8.9 million, other assets of $0.1 million and a decrease in accrued expense and other current liabilities of $0.1 million. The increases in accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable are attributed to increased revenues.
Investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 consumed $1.7 million of cash, of which $1.6 million were used to purchase assets that were previously being rented from CVS SpA in Liquidation (see Note 19 in the financial statements). The remaining $0.1 million is the net of capital purchases of $0.4 million offset by proceeds of $0.3 million from the sales of fixed assets.
Financing activities generated $6.5 million in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, which compares to the $9.7 million net increase in outstanding debt reflected on the above table. Approximately $3.0 million of the difference represents the non-cash component from the purchase of assets from CVS SpA in Liquidation. In the cash flow statement, the $3.0 million acquisition note is netted against acquired assets as there is no cash exchanged. The $0.2 million difference is an exchange rate difference that occurs as cash flows for foreign subsidiaries are calculated in local currencies and then converted to U.S. dollars. As such, the impact (in U.S. dollars) of change in exchange rates for the Canadian dollar and Euro had on outstanding debt are reflected on the cash flow statement on the line entitled effect of exchange rate changes on cash rather than being included in the financing activity section.
2010
Operating activities consumed $0.2 million of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 comprised of net income of $1.2 million, non-cash items that totaled $2.4 million and changes in assets and liabilities, which consumed $3.8 million. The principal non-cash item is depreciation and amortization of $2.3 million.
Increases in accounts payable of $1.6 million, accrued expenses of $1.3 million and other current liabilities of $0.4 million and a decrease in prepaid expenses of $0.1 million were more than offset by increases in accounts receivable of $6.2 million, and inventory of $0.9 million. The increase in accounts payable is entirely attributed to accounts payable at our new CVS subsidiary. The increase in accrued expenses is primarily related to increases in accrued commission (the result of increased revenues), accrued property taxes (due to timing of payments), accrued payroll, accrued legal and audit as well as other accruals principally associated the new CVS operation. The increase in other current liabilities is the result of an increase in customer deposits received. The increase in accounts receivable is principally due to an increase in revenues. Approximately 60% of the increase in inventory is attributed to our new CVS subsidiary. The remaining increase in inventory is due to increased production levels.
32
Cash flows related to investing activities consumed $0.2 million of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, as capital expenditures of $0.4 million were partially offset by proceeds of $0.2 million from the sale of equipment. Capital expenditures include approximately $0.3 million of building improvements at our newly leased facility in Bridgeview, Illinois.
Financing activities generated $0.5 million in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. As funds generated from new borrowings of $3.5 million ($3.2 million from increases on the Companys revolving term credit facilities) exceeds the repayment of debt.
Contingencies
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including product liability and workers compensation matters which have arisen in the normal course of operations. Certain cases are at a preliminary stage, and it is not possible to estimate the amount or timing of any cost to the Company. However, the Company does not believe that these contingencies, in aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies
See Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, for a discussion of the Companys other critical accounting policies.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2010, the FASB issue ASU 2010-28, Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts (ASU 2010-28). ASU 2010-28 modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts and requires the company to perform Step 2 if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment may exist. ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. Under the guidance any impairment recorded upon adoption is recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of adoption. The guidance has been adopted as of January 1, 2011 and did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-29, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations (ASU 2010-29). This standard update clarifies that, when presenting comparative financial statements, SEC registrants should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the current period business combinations had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The update also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for material (either on an individual or aggregate basis) business combinations entered into in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010 with early adoption permitted. ASU 2010-29 is therefore effective for acquisitions made after January 1, 2010. The guidance has been adopted as of January 1, 2011and may impact our disclosures for any future business combinations, but the effect will depend on acquisitions that may be made in the future.
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The amendments in this ASU generally represent clarification of Topic 820, but also include instances where a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements has changed. This update results in common principles and requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and are to be applied prospectively. Early application is not permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact, if any, that the adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have on its results of operations or its financial position.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05Presentation of Comprehensive Income (ASU 2011-05), requires entities to present reclassification adjustments included in other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements and allows entities to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. It also eliminates the option for entities to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders equity. For public companies, ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years (and interim periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company will adopt these standards on January 1, 2012. Because ASU 2011-05 impacts presentation only, it will not a have a material effect on the Companys operating results or financial position. This update will, however, require the Company to change the presentation of its consolidated financial statement
33
In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350)Testing Goodwill for Impairment (ASU 2011-08), to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. The guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entitys financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. The Company is currently accessing the impact that ASU 2011-08 will have on its results of operations or its financial position.
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-09, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Multiemployer Plans. ASU 2011-09 is intended to enhance the disclosure requirements for employers participating in multiemployer pension plans to improve transparency and increase awareness of the commitments and risks involved with participation in multiemployer plans. The new accounting guidance requires employers participating in multiemployer plans to provide additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures to provide users with more detailed information regarding an employers involvement in multiemployer plans. The new standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this standard may expand our footnote disclosures but is not anticipated to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2011
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
On September 24, 2010, Comerica Bank issued a 1.0 million Euro standby letter in fulfillment of CVSs obligations under the rental agreement. The standby letter of credit expires on July 31, 2012. Comerica has a security interest in substantially all the assets of the Company to support the standby letter of credit.
The Company has agreements with three Italian banks which have agreed to issue guarantees (performance bonds) to our customers for amounts in aggregate up 86 Euros ($116). At September 30, 2011, the banks had issued guarantees of 70 Euros ($95) in total.
The Company has a conditional commitment to purchase the building in which CVS Ferrari srl operates. Under the agreement, CVS Ferrari srl has a commitment to purchase the building at the conclusion of a rental period that ends on June 30, 2014 for 9,200. The commitment to purchase the building is contingent on CVS Ferrari srl being able to secure a mortgage on market terms for 75% of the purchase price.

Item 4Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and the Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)) as of March 31, 2011.
Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) were effective as of September 30, 2011 to provide reasonable assurance that (1) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms, and (2) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
The effectiveness of any system of controls and procedures is subject to certain limitations, and, as a result, there can be no assurance that our controls and procedures will detect all errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be attained.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including product liability and workers compensation matters which have arisen in the normal course of operations. The Company has product liability insurance with self insurance retention that ranges from $50 thousand to $1 million. Certain cases are at a preliminary stage, and it is not possible to estimate the amount or timing of any cost to the Company. However, the Company does not believe that these contingencies, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company. When it is probable that a loss has been incurred and possible to make a reasonable estimate of the Companys liability with respect to such matters, a provision is recorded for the amount of such estimate or the minimum amount of a range of estimates when it is not possible to estimate the amount within the range that is most likely to occur.
One of our insurance carriers has denied coverage for two product liability claims. The Company believes the insurance companies basis for denial of coverage is improper. As such, the Company has engaged outside legal representation to challenge the insurance companies denial of coverage. Currently, the Company is engaged in a declaratory judgment action which contests the denial of coverage. This suit was filed by Colony National Insurance Company against Manitex LLC, Manitex Inc., Manitex Skycrane, LLC, Quantum Equipment, LLC f/k/a Quantum Heavy Equipment, LLC, Quantum Value Management, LLC, Quantum Value Partners, LP and JLG Industries, Inc. It was filed October 2, 2009 in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, Austin Division, cause number A09CA724. The Lexington Insurance Company that provides excess coverage over the Colony policy filed a motion to intervene in this action December 8, 2009. That motion has been granted. Colony and Lexington seek a ruling by the court that the defense of JLG in the underlying product liability litigation is not covered by their policies.
In its complaint, Colony and Lexington have asserted several grounds for its denial of coverage and the Company has answered the Colony complaint and filed a counterclaim against Colony alleging its right to coverage and seeking its costs for JLG Industries, Inc.s defense and related costs.
On November 16, 2010 the Court granted the Companys motion for Summary Judgment finding that Colony did have a duty to defend the two product liability claims. Colony and Lexington have been granted leave to appeal the decision to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. The Company believes that the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals will affirm the District Courts decision and that the Company will prevail on the coverage issue under both policies.
On May 5, 2011, the Company entered into two (2) separate Settlement Agreements with the two (2) Plaintiffs in the underlying product liability lawsuits. Pursuant to these agreements, if the Courts decision in the Declaratory Judgment action is affirmed, which the Company believes it will be, the Plaintiffs will have the opportunity to pursue their recovery solely and exclusively against either or both of the liability insurance carriers, and the Company itself shall have no liability to the Plaintiffs. If, after all appeals in the Declaratory Judgment action, it is determined that there was no duty on the part of the liability insurance carriers to defend the Company, which the Company believes is unlikely, the Company will be liable to the Plaintiffs in the total amount of $1.9 million, payable in equal annual installments over a period of twenty (20) years without interest, beginning at the conclusion of the Declaratory Judgment action.
As of the date of this filing, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Equity | 6. Equity Stock Warrants The Company accounts for warrants issued to non-employees based on the fair value on date of issuance. Certain warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis under certain circumstances, and are callable by the Company on a cashless basis under certain circumstances. At September 30, 2011, the Company had issued and outstanding warrants as follows:
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 no warrants were exercised. On June 15, 2011, 15,000 warrants with a value of $45 expired without being exercised. Accordingly, the balance for warrants was reduced by $45 and the balance in paid in capital was increased by $45. Stock Issuance The Company issued shares of common stock to employees for restricted stock units issued under the Company's 2004 Incentive Plan, which had vested. The Company also repurchased shares from employees to satisfy employee withholding tax obligation. The shares were repurchased at the closing price on date the shares vested. The below table summarizes both stock issuance and repurchase with employees:
2004 Equity Incentive Plan In 2004, the Company adopted the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and subsequently amended and restated the plan on September 13, 2007 and May 28, 2009. The maximum number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the plan is 500,000 shares. The total number of shares reserved for issuance however, can be adjusted to reflect certain corporate transactions or changes in the Company's capital structure. The Company's employees and members of the board of directors who are not our employees or employees of our affiliates are eligible to participate in the plan. The plan is administered by a committee of the board comprised of members who are outside directors. The plan provides that the committee has the authority to, among other things, select plan participants, determine the type and amount of awards, determine award terms, fix all other conditions of any awards, interpret the plan and any plan awards. Under the plan, the committee can grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units, except Directors may not be granted stock appreciation rights, performance shares and performance units. During any calendar year, participants are limited in the number of grants they may receive under the plan. In any year, an individual may not receive options for more than 15,000 shares, stock appreciation rights with respect to more than 20,000 shares, more than 20,000 shares of restricted stock and/or an award for more than 10,000 performance shares or restricted stock units or performance units. The plan requires that the exercise price for stock options and stock appreciation rights be not less than fair market value of the Company's common stock on date of grant. The following table contains information regarding restricted stock units as of September 30, 2011:
On January 1, 2011, the Company granted 10,000 restricted stock units to an employee pursuant to the Company's 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. The restricted stock units fully vested upon issuance. On March 15, 2011, the Company granted an aggregate of 16,667 restricted stock units to four independent Directors pursuant to the Company's 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. Restricted stock units of 6,617, 4,950 and 5,100 vest on March 15, 2011, December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The value of the restricted stock is being charged to compensation expense over the vesting period. Compensation expense includes expense related to restricted stock units of $8 and $10 for the three months and $95 and $77 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Additional compensation expense related to restricted stock units will be $8 and $28 for the remainder of 2011, and 2012, respectively. |

CVS SpA In Liquidation Assets Purchase [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
CVS SpA In Liquidation Assets Purchase | 19. CVS SpA in Liquidation Assets Purchase On July 1, 2011, CVS Ferrari, Srl purchased the intangible assets and the machinery and equipment that CVS had previously rented from CVS SpA in Liquidation (the "Seller") pursuant to a purchase agreement ("Purchase Agreement") with the Seller dated June 29, 2011. Additionally on June 29, 2011, CVS entered into a second agreement which also closed on June 29, 2011 with Cabletronic, Srl ("Cabletronic Agreement") to acquire software and electronic know-how that is used in the products manufactured by CVS. Finally, CVS Ferrari assumed certain liabilities. Total Consideration for the acquired assets is as follows:
Purchase Agreements On June 29, 2011, CVS Ferrari srl (the "Purchaser"), an Italian Corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Manitex International, Inc. (the "Company"), entered into a purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with CVS SpA in Liquidation (the "Seller") to acquire on July 1, 2011 for 2,817 (approximately $4,089) (1) rights, designs and drawings for all products previously manufactured by CVS SpA including reach stackers, straight mast container handlers, straddle carriers and tractors and (2) certain machinery and equipment used to manufacture the aforementioned items. The purchase price is payable as follows: 467 ($630) upon signing the agreement, 17 ($23) within 90 days of July 1, 2011, and the remaining balance in five semi-annual installments of 467 ($630) payable on each December 30 and June 30 through December 30, 2013. No interest is accrued or payable on the deferred portion of the purchase price. The fair value of the promissory note was calculated to be equal to the present value of the future debt payments discounted at a market rate of return commensurate with similar debt instruments with comparable levels of risk and marketability. A rate of interest of 4% was determined to be the appropriate rate following an assessment of the risk inherent in the debt issue and the market rate for debt of this nature using corporate credit ratings criteria. The calculated fair value of the deferred amount of 2,350 ($3,411) was 2,218 ($3,219). The difference between face amount of the promissory note and its fair value is being amortized over the life of the note. The obligation under the purchase agreement is secured by an existing guarantee of 1,000 (approximately $1,400) issued by Unicredit SPA which expires on June 30, 2012. The Unicredit SPA guarantee is supported by a standby letter of credit issued by Comerica Bank which also expires on June 30, 2012. The purchase agreement requires the Company to replace the existing guarantee when it expires with a new guarantee issued by Unicredit SPA in an amount equal to the outstanding balance. Cabletronic Agreement On June 29, 2011, The Company and Cabletronic srl entered into a separate agreement. Under the agreement, the Company agreed to pay Cabletronics 100 (approximately $145) in exchange for the software or electronic know-how (including source code) and all rights to said software and electronic know-how currently used to manufacture and operate the products acquired from CVS SpA. Additionally, Cabletronic also agreed to supply only to CVS Ferrari srl the hardware on which to run the software for a three year period ending June 30, 2014. The 100 is payable as follows: 34 upon signing of the contract, 33 ($45) on October 30, 2011 and 33($45) on January 12, 2012. Assumed Liabilities In connection with the transactions, the Company assumed the liability of $ 500 (approximately $726). Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total acquisition consideration is allocated to the assets acquired based on their fair values as of the date of the acquisition as shown below. Machinery and equipment: The fair value of the machinery and equipment was determined by management relaying in part on an independent appraisal of the machinery and equipment. Intangible assets: There are three fundamental methods applied to value intangible assets outlined in FASB ASC 820. These methods include the Cost Approach, the Market Approach, and the Income Approach. Each of these valuation approaches was considered in our estimation of value.
Trade names and trademarks and patented and unpatented technology: Valued using the Relief from Royalty method, a form of both the Market Approach and the Income Approach. Because the Company has established trade names and trademarks and has developed patented and patented technology, we estimated the benefit of ownership as the relief from the royalty expense that would need to be incurred in absence of ownership. Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess of total consideration paid and the fair value of net assets acquired. The recognition of goodwill of $914 reflects the inherent value in the CVS's reputation, which has been built since being founded in 1982. CVS has a reputation for quality and technical proficiency acquired by continued development of a robust and superior product and after sales service, with products in use across the global container handling and inter-modal markets. The entire amount of goodwill in this transaction is associated with our Lifting Equipment Segment. Conditional Future Purchase Commitment On June 29, 2011, upon the signing of the Purchase Agreement a conditional commitment became effective to purchase the building in which CVS Ferrari srl operates. Under the agreement, CVS Ferrari srl has a commitment to purchase the building at the conclusion of a rental period that ends on June 30, 2014 for 9,200. The commitment to purchase the building is contingent on CVS Ferrari srl being able to secure a mortgage on market terms for 75% of the purchase price. During the rental period, CVS Ferrari srl rent will remain fixed at 360 ($486) per year. Pro forma results Pro forma results have not been provided in connection with the CVS acquisitions as they are not relevant. Pro forma information is not available as CVS SpA in Liquidation did not operate during 2009. |

Accrued Warranty | 11. Accrued Warranty The liability is established using historical warranty claim experience. Historical warranty experience is, however, reviewed by management. The current provision may be adjusted to take into account unusual or non-recurring events in the past or anticipated changes in future warranty claims. Adjustments to the initial warranty accrual are recorded if actual claim experience indicates that adjustments are necessary. Warranty reserves are reviewed to ensure critical assumptions are updated for known events that may impact the potential warranty liability.

Basis Of Presentation | 2. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements, included herein, have been prepared by the Company without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals, except as otherwise disclosed) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position as of September 30, 2011, and results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The consolidated balances as of December 31, 2010 were derived from audited financial statements but do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards for interim financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the year.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts Receivable is reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. The Company's estimate for the allowance for doubtful accounts related to trade receivables includes evaluation of specific accounts where the Company has information that the customer may have an inability to meet its financial obligations. Inventory Valuation Inventory consists of stock materials and equipment stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market. All equipment classified as inventory is available for sale. The Company records excess and obsolete inventory reserves. The estimated reserve is based upon specific identification of excess or obsolete inventories. Selling, general and administrative expenses are expensed as incurred and are not capitalized as a component of inventory. Accrued Warranties The Company establishes a reserve for future warranty expense at the point when revenue is recognized by the Company. The provision for estimated warranty claims, which is included in cost of sales, is based on a percentage of sales. Litigation Claims In determining whether liabilities should be recorded for pending litigation claims, the Company must assess the allegations and the likelihood that it will successfully defend itself. When the Company believes it is probable that it will not prevail in a particular matter, it will then make an estimate of the amount of liability based, in part, on the advice of outside legal counsel. Comprehensive Income Reporting "Comprehensive Income" requires reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income includes, in addition to net earnings, other items that are reported as direct adjustments to stockholder's equity. Currently, the comprehensive income adjustment required for the Company has two components. First is a foreign currency translation adjustment, the result of consolidating its foreign subsidiaries. The second component is a derivative instrument fair market value adjustment (net of income taxes) related to forward currency contracts designated as a cash flow hedge. See Note 4 for additional details. Comprehensive income is as follows:

Legal Proceedings [Abstract] | |
Legal Proceedings | 13. Legal Proceedings The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including product liability, employment related issues, and workers' compensation matters which have arisen in the normal course of operations. The Company has product liability insurance with self insurance retention that range from $50 to $1,000. Certain cases are at a preliminary stage, and it is not possible to estimate the amount or timing of any cost to the Company. However, the Company does not believe that these contingencies, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company. When it is probable that a loss has been incurred and possible to make a reasonable estimate of the Company's liability with respect to such matters, a provision is recorded for the amount of such estimate or the minimum amount of a range of estimates when it is not possible to estimate the amount within the range that is most likely to occur. One of our insurance carriers has denied coverage for two product liability claims. The Company believes the insurance companies' basis for denial of coverage is improper. As such, the Company has engaged outside legal representation to challenge the insurance companies' denial of coverage. Currently, the Company is engaged in a declaratory judgment action which contests the denial of coverage. This suit was filed by Colony National Insurance Company against Manitex LLC, Manitex Inc., Manitex Skycrane, LLC, Quantum Equipment, LLC f/k/a Quantum Heavy Equipment, LLC, Quantum Value Management, LLC, Quantum Value Partners, LP and JLG Industries, Inc. It was filed October 2, 2009 in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, Austin Division, case number A09CA724. The Lexington Insurance Company that provides excess coverage over the Colony policy filed a motion to intervene in this action December 8, 2009. That motion has been granted. Colony and Lexington seek a ruling by the court that the defense of JLG in the underlying product liability litigation is not covered by their policies.
In its complaint, Colony and Lexington have asserted several grounds for its denial of coverage and the Company has answered the Colony complaint and filed a counterclaim against Colony alleging its right to coverage and seeking its costs for JLG Industries' defense and related costs. The Company believes that it has a meritorious position on coverage under both policies. On November 16, 2010 the Court granted the Company's motion for Summary Judgment finding that Colony did have a duty to defend the two product liability claims. Colony and Lexington have been granted leave to appeal the decision to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. The Company believes that the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals will affirm the District Court's decision and that the Company will prevail on the coverage issue under both policies. On May 5, 2011, the Company entered into two (2) separate Settlement Agreements with the two (2) Plaintiffs in the underlying product liability lawsuits. Pursuant to these agreements, if the Court's decision in the Declaratory Judgment action is affirmed, which the Company believes it will be, the Plaintiffs will have the opportunity to pursue their recovery solely and exclusively against either or both of the liability insurance carriers, and the Company itself shall have no liability to the Plaintiffs. If, after all appeals in the Declaratory Judgment action, it is determined that there was no duty on the part of the liability insurance carriers to defend the Company, which the Company believes is unlikely, the Company will be liable to the Plaintiffs in the total amount of $1.9 million, payable in equal annual installments over a period of twenty (20) years without interest, beginning at the conclusion of the Declaratory Judgment action. It is reasonably possible that the "Estimated Reserve for Product Liability Claims" may change within the next 12 months. A change in estimate could occur if a case is settled for more or less than anticipated, or if additional information becomes known to the Company. |

New Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract] | |
New Accounting Pronouncements | 7. New Accounting Pronouncements In December 2010, the FASB issue ASU 2010-28, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts ("ASU 2010-28"). ASU 2010-28 modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts and requires the company to perform Step 2 if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment may exist. ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. Under the guidance any impairment recorded upon adoption is recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of adoption. The guidance has been adopted as of January 1, 2011 and did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-29, Business Combinations (Topic 805) — Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations ("ASU 2010-29"). This standard update clarifies that, when presenting comparative financial statements, SEC registrants should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the current period business combinations had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The update also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for material (either on an individual or aggregate basis) business combinations entered into in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010 with early adoption permitted. ASU 2010-29 is therefore effective for acquisitions made after January 1, 2010. The guidance has been adopted as of January 1, 2011 and may impact our disclosures for any future business combinations, but the effect will depend on acquisitions that may be made in the future. In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The amendments in this ASU generally represent clarification of Topic 820, but also include instances where a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements has changed. This update results in common principles and requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and are to be applied prospectively. Early application is not permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact, if any, that the adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have on its results of operations or its financial position. In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05—Presentation of Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2011-05"), requires entities to present reclassification adjustments included in other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements and allows entities to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. It also eliminates the option for entities to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. For public companies, ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years (and interim periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company will adopt these standards on January 1, 2012. Because ASU 2011-05 impacts presentation only, it will not a have a material effect on the Company's operating results or financial position. This update will, however, require the Company to change the presentation of its consolidated financial statements. In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)—Testing Goodwill for Impairment (ASU 2011-08), to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. The guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entity's financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. The Company is currently accessing the impact that ASU 2011-08 will have on its results of operations or its financial position. In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-09, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Multiemployer Plans. ASU 2011-09 is intended to enhance the disclosure requirements for employers participating in multiemployer pension plans to improve transparency and increase awareness of the commitments and risks involved with participation in multiemployer plans. The new accounting guidance requires employers participating in multiemployer plans to provide additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures to provide users with more detailed information regarding an employer's involvement in multiemployer plans. The new standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this standard may expand our footnote disclosures but is not anticipated to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2011 |

Financial Instruments-Forward Currency Exchange Contracts | 3. Financial Instruments—Forward Currency Exchange Contracts The following tables set forth the company's financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by ASC 820-10, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following is summary of items that the Company measures at fair value:
Fair Value Measurements ASC 820-10 classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
The fair value of the forward currency contracts are determined on the last day of each reporting period using quoted prices in active markets, which are supplied to the Company by the foreign currency trading operation of its bank. Under ASC 820-10, items valued based on quoted prices in active markets are Level 1 items. The Load King purchase agreement has a contingent consideration provision which provides for a one-time payment of $750 if net revenues are equal to or greater than $30,000 in 2010, 2011 or 2012. Given the disparity between the revenue threshold and the Company's projected financial results, it was determined that a Monte Carlo simulation analysis was appropriate to determine the fair value of contingent consideration. It was determined that the probability weighted average earn out payment is $30. Based thereon, we determined the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $30. |

Derivatives Financial Instruments | 4. Derivatives Financial Instruments The Company's risk management objective is to use the most efficient and effective methods available to us to minimize, eliminate, reduce or transfer the risks which are associated with fluctuation of exchange rates between the Canadian and U.S. dollar. When the Company's Canadian subsidiary receives a significant new U.S. dollar order, management will evaluate different options that may be available to mitigate future currency exchange risks. The decision to hedge future sales is not automatic and is decided case by case. The Company will only use hedge instruments to hedge firm existing sales orders and not estimated exposure, when management determines that exchange risks exceeds desired risk tolerance levels.
The Company enters into forward currency exchange contracts in order to attempt to create a relationship such that the exchange gains and losses on the assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units' functional currency would be offset by the changes in the market value of the forward currency exchange contracts it holds. The forward currency exchange contracts that the Company has to offset existing assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units' functional currency have been determined not to be considered a hedge under ASC 815-10. The Company records at the balance sheet date the forward currency exchange contracts at its market value with any associated gain or loss being recorded in current earnings. Both realized and unrealized gains and losses related to forward currency contracts are included in current earnings and are reflected in the Statement of Operations in the other income expense section on the line titled foreign currency transaction gains/ (losses). Items denominated in other than a reporting unit's functional currency includes U.S. denominated accounts receivable and accounts payable held by our Canadian subsidiary. Our Italian subsidiary's payable to the parent Company is also an item denominated in other than the reporting unit's functional currency. We have purchased forward currency exchange contacts in order to create a relationship such that the exchange gains and loss on intercompany balances with our Italian subsidiary are offset by changes in the market value of the forward currency exchange contracts that the Company holds. The Company entered into forward currency contracts to hedge certain future U.S. dollar sales of its Canadian Subsidiary. The decision to hedge future sales is not automatic and is decided on a case by case basis. The forward currency contracts to hedge future sales are designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815-10. As required, forward currency contracts are recognized as an asset or liability at fair value on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings (date of sale). Gains or losses on cash flow hedges when recognized into income are included in net revenues. Gains and losses on the derivative instruments representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. The Company expects minimal ineffectiveness as the Company has hedged only firm sales orders and has not hedged estimated exposures. In the next twelve months, the company estimates $125 of pre-tax unrealized losses related to forward currency contract hedges to be reclassified from other comprehensive income into earnings. At September 30, 2011, the Company had entered into a series of forward currency exchange contracts. The contracts obligate the Company to purchase approximately CDN $4,419 in total. The contracts which are in various amounts mature between October 3, 2011 and May 25, 2012. Under the contracts, the Company will purchase Canadian dollars at exchange rates between .9680 and 1.0399. The Canadian to U.S. dollar exchange rates was .9540 at September 30, 2011. Additionally, the Company has entered into a forward currency contract which matures on July 2, 2012 to sell 800 at 1.4214. The Euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate was 1.3503 at September 30, 2011. The unrealized currency exchange asset is reported under prepaid expense and other if it is an asset or under accrued expenses if it is a liability on the balance sheet at September 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had the following forward currency contracts:

Revolving Term Credit Facilities And Debt [Abstract] | |
Revolving Term Credit Facilities And Debt | 12. Revolving Term Credit Facilities and Debt Revolving Credit Facility At September 30, 2011, the Company had drawn $19,086 under a revolving credit facility. The Company is eligible to borrow up to $22,500 with interest at the prime rate (prime was 3.25% at September 30, 2011). Alternatively, the Company can elect to take LIBOR based advances for a one, two or three month period, in which case interest is then equal to the applicable LIBOR interest rate plus 3.15%. At the end of specified period, the Company can elect to rollover the LIBOR based advance to another one, two or three month LIBOR based advance or can elect to convert the advance to a prime rate borrowing. The maximum amount available is limited to the sum of 85% of eligible receivables, and the lesser of 50% of eligible inventory or $14,000, plus $1,500. At September 30, 2011, the maximum the Company could borrow based on available collateral was capped at $21,335. The credit facility's original maturity date was January 2, 2005. The maturity date was subsequently extended and the note is now due on April 1, 2015. The indebtedness is collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets. The facility contains customary limitations including, but not limited to, limitations on acquisitions, dividends, repurchase of the Company's stock and capital expenditures. The agreement also requires the Company to have a Debt Service Ratio, as defined in the agreement of 1.25 to 1.0 and Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio, as defined in the agreement, of no greater than 5.25 to 1.0 through March 31, 2012, from June 30, 2012 through March 31, 2013 a ratio of no greater than 4.75 to 1.0 and on June 30, 2013 and thereafter a ratio of no greater than 4.25 to 1.0. The agreement also provides that the bank is to receive an unused credit line fee in an amount equal to one-eighth percent per annum payable quarterly in arrears. The agreement permits the Company to issue unsecured guarantees of indebtedness owed by CVS Ferrari, srl to foreign banks in respect to working capital financing, not to exceed the lesser of $5,000 or the amount of such financing. Additionally the agreement allows the Company to make or allow to remain outstanding any investment (whether such investment shall be of the character of investment of shares of stock, evidence of indebtedness or other securities or otherwise) in, or any loans or advances to CVS or to any other wholly-owned foreign subsidiary in an amount not to exceed $2,500. The above summarizes the terms of the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2011. The Company executed certain amendments to its revolving credit facility between June 27, 2011 and June 29, 2011 and paid an amendment fee of $113. The amendments extended the maturity dates to April 1, 2015, increased the maximum borrowings to $22,500 from $20,500, modified advance formula, which increased the amount the Company can borrow, and decreases prime rate based interest rates by 1.5%. The amendment also added a provision which permits the Company to elect to take LIBOR based advances and added a new covenant which requires that the Company have a maximum Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio at the end of a quarter. Revolving Canadian Credit Facility At September 30, 2011, the Company had drawn US $5,608 under a revolving credit agreement with a bank. The Company is eligible to borrow up to CDN $6,500 or US $6,201. The maximum amount available is limited to the sum of (1) 85% of eligible receivables plus (2) the lesser of 35% of eligible work-in-process inventory or CDN $500 plus (3) the lesser of 50% of eligible inventory less work-in-process inventory or CDN $3,500.

The fair value of the promissory note was calculated to be equal to the present value of the future debt payments discounted at a market rate of return commensurate with similar debt instruments with comparable levels of risk and marketability.
