Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(In millions, unless otherwise noted)
(1)    BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and shareholders' equity of Axalta Coating Systems Ltd., a Bermuda exempted company limited by shares, and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Axalta," the "Company," "we," "our" and "us") at June 30, 2022, the results of operations, comprehensive (loss) income and changes in shareholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and cash flows for the six months then ended. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Axalta and its subsidiaries, and entities in which a controlling interest is maintained. Certain of our entities are accounted for on a one-month lag basis, the effect of which is not material.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.
Risks and Uncertainties
After experiencing significant impacts to our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows in 2020 from the coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic, we have seen a return to more stable quarter-over-quarter demand for our products and services during 2021 and into 2022, though we continue to see impacts to our business given the continued significant presence, and actual or potential spread, of the virus globally, as well as preventative measures enacted in certain regions of the world. We are currently unable to fully determine the future impact of COVID-19 on our business, though we believe the pandemic will continue to have a negative effect on our business during 2022, and potentially longer. We are monitoring the progression of the pandemic and its ongoing and potential effect on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows, which effects could be materially adverse in a particular quarterly reporting period as well as on an annual basis.
(2)    REVENUE
Consideration for products in which control has transferred to our customers that is conditional on something other than the passage of time is recorded as a contract asset within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the balance sheet. The contract asset balances at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $37.5 million and $36.1 million, respectively.
We provide certain customers with incremental up-front consideration, subject to clawback provisions, including Business Incentive Plan assets ("BIPs"), which is capitalized as a component of other assets and amortized over the estimated life of the contractual arrangement as a reduction of net sales. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the total carrying value of BIPs were $144.5 million and $151.2 million, respectively, and are presented within other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, $15.4 million, $29.9 million, $13.7 million, and $29.0 million respectively, was amortized and reflected as reductions of net sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The total carrying value of BIPs exclude other up-front incentives with repayment features made in conjunction with long-term customer commitments of $44.5 million and $72.7 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, of which $5.1 million and $12.6 million is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, with the remainder included in other assets. These up-front incentives with repayment features are subject to the credit risk of our customers and, depending on the financial condition of our customers, it is possible that some or all of the amounts may become uncollectible.
During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we agreed to forgo collection of a portion of previously provided up-front incentives with a certain Performance Coatings customer, contingent upon this customer completing a recapitalization and restructuring of its indebtedness and executing a new long-term exclusive sales agreement with us. A reserve for this concession was recorded at June 30, 2022 for $25.0 million, of which $20.3 million was recorded as a reduction to revenue. In July 2022, the contingency was resolved and a new long-term exclusive sales agreement went into effect resulting in the forgiveness of the reserved amounts.
See Note 17 for disaggregated net sales by end-market.

(3)    ACQUISITIONS
Acquisition of U-POL Holdings Limited
On September 15, 2021, we completed the acquisition of U-POL Holdings Limited ("U-POL") for an aggregate purchase price of $619.8 million. The acquisition of U-POL, a leading supplier of paint, protective coatings and accessories primarily for the automotive aftermarket, strengthens Axalta's global refinish leadership position and supports its broader growth strategy. The results of the business are reported within our Performance Coatings segment. The U-POL acquisition was recorded as a business combination under Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations, with identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date.
At June 30, 2022, we have not finalized the purchase accounting related to the U-POL acquisition and these amounts represent preliminary values. The allocation of the purchase price may be modified up to one year from the closing date of the acquisition as more information is obtained about the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The purchase price was allocated as follows:

(5)    RESTRUCTURING
In accordance with the applicable guidance for ASC 712, Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits, we accounted for termination benefits and recognized liabilities when the loss was considered probable that employees were entitled to benefits and the amounts could be reasonably estimated.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we incurred costs for termination benefits of $3.4 million, $5.8 million, $22.5 million and $27.0 million, respectively. The majority of our termination benefits are recorded within other operating charges in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The remaining payments associated with these actions are expected to be substantially completed within 24 months.
The following table summarizes the activity related to termination benefit reserves and expenses from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022:

(6)    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Guarantees
We guarantee certain of our customers’ obligations to third parties, whereby any default by our customers on their obligations could force us to make payments to the applicable creditors. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had outstanding bank guarantees of $4.8 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Approximately half of our bank guarantees expire between 2022 and 2036, while the remainder do not have specified expiration dates. We monitor the customer obligations and bank guarantees to evaluate whether we have a liability at the balance sheet date. We did not have any liabilities related to our outstanding bank guarantees recorded at either June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.
Operational Matter
In January 2021, we became aware of an operational matter affecting certain North America Mobility Coatings customer manufacturing sites. The matter involves the use and application of certain of our products in combination with and incorporated within third-party products. The matter occurred over a discrete period during the fourth quarter of 2020. We have concluded that losses from this matter are probable and that a majority of losses would be covered under our insurance policies, subject to deductible and policy limits as defined in our policies.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, we recorded expenses of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, benefits of $71.8 million and expenses of $22.6 million, respectively, within other operating charges in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $38.2 million and $52.7 million, respectively, recorded for estimated insurance receivables within accounts and notes receivable, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Liabilities of $43.5 million and $49.7 million are recorded as other accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The recorded probable losses remain an estimate and actual costs arising from this matter could be materially lower or higher depending on the actual costs incurred to repair the impacted products as well as the availability of additional insurance coverage.
Other
We are subject to various pending lawsuits, legal proceedings and other claims in the ordinary course of business, including civil, regulatory and environmental matters. These matters may involve third-party indemnification obligations and/or insurance covering all or part of any potential damage incurred by us. All of these matters are subject to many uncertainties and, accordingly, we cannot determine the ultimate outcome of the proceedings and other claims at this time. The potential effects, if any, on our condensed consolidated financial statements will be recorded in the period in which these matters are probable and estimable. Except as set forth in the "Operational Matter" section above, we believe that any sum we may be required to pay in connection with proceedings or claims in excess of the amounts recorded would likely not have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations, financial conditions or cash flows on a consolidated annual basis but could have a material adverse impact in a particular quarterly reporting period.
We are involved in environmental remediation and ongoing compliance activities at several sites. The timing and duration of remediation and ongoing compliance activities are determined on a site by site basis depending on local regulations. The liabilities recorded represent our estimable future remediation costs and other anticipated environmental liabilities. We have not recorded liabilities at sites where a liability is probable, but that a range of loss is not reasonably estimable. We believe that any sum we may be required to pay in connection with environmental remediation matters in excess of the amounts recorded would likely occur over a period of time and would likely not have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows on a consolidated annual basis but could have a material adverse impact in a particular quarterly reporting period.

(10)    INCOME TAXES
Our effective income tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:
Six Months Ended June 30,
20222021
Effective Tax Rate26.0 %23.0 %
The higher effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to the unfavorable impact of net currency exchange losses in 2022.

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 differs from the U.S. Federal statutory rate due to various items that impacted the effective rate both favorably and unfavorably. We recorded the unfavorable impact of net currency exchange losses, increase in valuation allowance and increase in unrecognized tax benefits. These adjustments were offset by the favorable adjustments for earnings in jurisdictions where the statutory rate is lower than the U.S. Federal statutory rate.

The Company anticipates that it is reasonably possible it will settle up to $10.6 million, exclusive of interest and penalties, of its current unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months due to the expected conclusion of ongoing tax audits.
(11)    NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net income per common share excludes the dilutive impact of potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share includes the effect of potential dilution from the hypothetical exercise of outstanding stock options and vesting of restricted stock units and performance share units. A reconciliation of our basic and diluted net income per common share is as follows:

Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount we expect to collect. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses by applying historical loss percentages, combined with reasonable and supportable forecasts of future losses, to respective aging categories. Management considers the following factors in developing its current estimate of expected credit losses: customer credit-worthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current economic industry trends, changes in market or regulatory matters, changes in geopolitical matters, and changes in customer payment terms, as well as the ongoing impacts from COVID-19 and other macroeconomic factors.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility totaled $21.2 million and $22.1 million, respectively, which reduced the availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. Availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was $528.8 million and $527.9 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Supplier financing arrangements
We have a financing program in China which is utilized to finance the purchases of goods and services from our suppliers through local banking institutions. The payment terms under the financing program vary, but the program has a weighted average maturity date that approximates 90 days. These financing arrangements are included in current portion of borrowings within the consolidated balance sheets and at the time of issuance each transaction is treated as a non-cash financing activity within the consolidated statements of cash flows. Upon settlement of the financing, the cash outflow is classified as a financing activity within the consolidated statements of cash flows. Amounts outstanding under this program were $7.9 million and $12.6 million at June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, including $0.4 million and $1.6 million, respectively, related to purchases of property, plant and equipment. Cash outflows under this program were $19.9 million, $44.0 million, $17.2 million and $30.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Fair value of financial instruments
Equity securities with readily determinable fair values - Balances of equity securities are recorded within other assets, with any changes in fair value recorded within other expense (income), net. The fair values of equity securities are based upon quoted market prices, which are considered Level 1 inputs.

18
Table of Contents
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(In millions, unless otherwise noted)
Long-term borrowings - The estimated fair values of these borrowings are based on recent trades, as reported by a third-party pricing service. Due to the infrequency of trades, these inputs are considered to be Level 2 inputs.
Derivative instruments - The Company’s interest rate caps, interest rate swaps, cross-currency swaps, and foreign currency forward contracts are valued using broker quotations, or market transactions in either the listed or over-the-counter markets. As such, these derivative instruments are included in the Level 2 hierarchy.
Fair value of contingent consideration
The fair value of contingent consideration associated with an acquisition completed in the year is valued at each balance sheet date, until amounts become payable, with adjustments recorded within other expense (income), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. During April 2021, in conjunction with an acquisition in China, we recorded the fair value of contingent consideration of $7.3 million. As of June 30, 2022, the contingent consideration had increased to $7.5 million as a result of accretion for the passage of time and currency translation. The contingent consideration was valued using a probability-weighted expected payment method. The analysis considered the timing of expected future cash flows and the probability of whether key elements of the contingent event are completed. Due to the significant unobservable inputs used in the valuations, these liabilities are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
The table below presents the fair values of our financial instruments measured on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Derivative Financial Instruments
We selectively use derivative instruments to reduce market risk associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The use of derivatives is intended for hedging purposes only, and we do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
Certain derivative instruments in use are contingent upon changes in LIBOR, which is the subject of recent reform and will cease being published in June 2023. The derivative instruments under LIBOR terms that we are currently party to will either mature before June 2023 or the agreements contain transitional language to a different reference rate.
Derivative Instruments Qualifying and Designated as Cash Flow and Net Investment Hedges
Cross-Currency Swaps Designated as Net Investment Hedges
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we settled two fixed-for-fixed cross-currency swaps with an aggregate notional amount totaling €335.0 million, previously executed in 2020, resulting in cash proceeds of $25.0 million. Concurrently, we entered into two fixed-for-fixed cross-currency swaps with an aggregate notional amount totaling €335.0 million to hedge the variability of exchange rate impacts between the U.S. Dollar and Euro. Under the terms of the new cross-currency swap agreements, the Company notionally exchanged $365.5 million at a weighted average interest rate of 3.375% for €335.0 million at a weighted average interest rate of 2.04%. The cross-currency swaps are designated as net investment hedges and expire on February 15, 2029. These cross-currency swaps are marked to market at each reporting date and any unrealized gains or losses are included in unrealized currency translation adjustments, within accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCI").
Foreign Currency Forward Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we designated foreign currency forward contracts with a notional value of $3.0 million as cash flow hedges of the Company’s exposure to variability in exchange rates on forecasted purchases of inventory denominated in foreign currencies. These forward currency contracts are marked to market at each reporting date and any unrealized gains or losses are included in AOCI and reclassified to cost of goods sold in the same period or periods during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.
The following table presents the fair values of derivative instruments that qualify and have been designated as cash flow and net investment hedges included in AOCI:
June 30, 2022December 31, 2021

Derivative Instruments Not Designated as Cash Flow Hedges
We periodically enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts to reduce market risk and hedge our balance sheet exposures and cash flows for subsidiaries with exposures denominated in currencies different from the functional currency of the relevant subsidiary. These contracts have not been designated as hedges and all gains and losses are marked to market through other expense (income), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Fair value gains and losses of derivative contracts, as determined using Level 2 inputs, that have not been designated for hedge accounting treatment under ASC 815, Derivatives and hedging, are recorded in earnings as follows:

(17)    SEGMENTS
The Company identifies an operating segment as a component: (i) that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses; (ii) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and (iii) that has available discrete financial information.
We have two operating segments, which are also our reportable segments: Performance Coatings and Mobility Coatings. The CODM reviews financial information at the operating segment level to allocate resources and to assess the operating results and financial performance for each operating segment. Our CODM is identified as the Chief Executive Officer because he has final authority over performance assessment and resource allocation decisions. Our segments are based on the type and concentration of customers served, service requirements, methods of distribution and major product lines.
Through our Performance Coatings segment, we provide high-quality liquid and powder coatings solutions to a fragmented and local customer base. We are one of only a few suppliers with the technology to provide precise color matching and highly durable coatings systems. The end-markets within this segment are refinish and industrial.

(In millions, unless otherwise noted)
Through our Mobility Coatings segment, we provide coatings technologies while focusing on supporting the accelerating demand for e-mobility and the evolving coatings needs of established and emerging light and commercial vehicle OEMs, fleet owners and shared mobility providers. These global customers are faced with evolving megatrends in sustainability, personalization and autonomous driving that require a high level of technical support coupled with productive, environmentally responsible coatings systems that can be applied with a high degree of precision, consistency and speed. The end-markets within this segment are light vehicle and commercial vehicle.
Adjusted EBIT is the primary measure to evaluate financial performance of the operating segments and allocate resources. Asset information is not reviewed or included with our internal management reporting. Therefore, the Company has not disclosed asset information for each reportable segment. The following table presents relevant information of our reportable segments.

(1)The primary measure of segment operating performance is Adjusted EBIT, which is defined as net income before interest, taxes and select other items impacting operating results. These other items impacting operating results are items that management has concluded are (1) non-cash items included within net income, (2) items the Company does not believe are indicative of ongoing operating performance or (3) non-recurring, unusual or infrequent items that have not occurred within the last two years or we believe are not reasonably likely to recur within the next two years. Adjusted EBIT is a key metric that is used by management to evaluate business performance in comparison to budgets, forecasts and prior year financial results, providing a measure that management believes reflects the Company's core operating performance, which represents Adjusted EBIT adjusted for the select items referred to above.
(2)
Does not represent Adjusted EBIT referenced elsewhere by the Company as there are additional adjustments that are not allocated to the segments.
(a)Represents expenses and associated changes to estimates related to employee termination benefits and other employee-related costs. Employee termination benefits are primarily associated with Axalta Way initiatives. These amounts are not considered indicative of our ongoing operating performance.

These amounts are not considered indicative of our ongoing performance.
(c)Represents acquisition and divestiture-related expenses and integration activities associated with our business combinations, all of which are not considered indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(d)Represents incremental depreciation expense resulting from truncated useful lives of the assets impacted by our manufacturing footprint assessments and costs related to the closure of certain manufacturing sites, which we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(e)Represents expenses, changes in estimates and insurance recoveries for probable liabilities related to an operational matter in the Mobility Coatings segment discussed further in Note 6, which we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(f)Represents non-recurring income related to a law change with respect to certain Brazilian indirect taxes which was recorded within other expense (income), net.
(g)Represents expenses related to sanctions imposed on Russia in response to the conflict with Ukraine as a result of incremental reserves for accounts receivable, incremental inventory obsolescence and business incentive payments, which we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(h)
Represents a forgiveness of a portion of up-front customer incentives with repayment features, contingent upon our customer completing a recapitalization and restructuring of its indebtedness and the execution of a new long-term exclusive sales agreement with us. These amounts are not considered to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(i)Represents costs for certain non-operational or non-cash (gains) and losses, unrelated to our core business and which we do not consider indicative of ongoing operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the condensed notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Many statements made in the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of federal securities laws and should be evaluated as such. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of our business plan, strategies and capital structure. These statements often include words such as "anticipate," "expect," "believe," "intended," "estimates," "projections," "can," "could," "would," "may," "will," "forecasts" and the negative of these words or other comparable or similar terminology. We base these forward-looking statements or projections on our current expectations, plans and assumptions that we have made in light of our experience in the industry, as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances and at such time. As you read and consider this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. The forward-looking statements and projections are subject to and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described in "Forward-Looking Statements," as well as "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements or projections. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements and projections are based on reasonable assumptions at the time they are made, you should be aware that many factors, including, but not limited to, those described in "Risk Factors", could affect our actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements and projections.
These cautionary statements should not be construed by you to be exhaustive and are made only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
OVERVIEW
We are a leading global manufacturer, marketer and distributor of high performance coatings systems and products. We have over a 150-year heritage in the coatings industry and are known for manufacturing high-quality products with well-recognized brands supported by market-leading technology and customer service. Our diverse global footprint of 47 manufacturing facilities, four technology centers, 48 customer training centers and approximately 12,000 employees allows us to meet the needs of customers in over 140 countries. We serve our customer base through an extensive sales force and technical support organization, as well as through approximately 4,000 independent, locally based distributors.
We operate our business in two operating segments, Performance Coatings and Mobility Coatings. Our segments are based on the type and concentration of customers served, service requirements, methods of distribution and major product lines.
Through our Performance Coatings segment, we provide high-quality liquid and powder coatings solutions to a fragmented and local customer base. We are one of only a few suppliers with the technology to provide precise color matching and highly durable coatings systems. The end-markets within this segment are refinish and industrial.
Through our Mobility Coatings segment, we provide coatings technologies while focusing on supporting the accelerating demand for e-mobility and the evolving coatings needs of established and emerging light and commercial vehicle OEMs, fleet owners and shared mobility providers. These global customers are faced with evolving megatrends in sustainability, personalization and autonomous driving that require a high level of technical support coupled with productive, environmentally responsible coatings systems that can be applied with a high degree of precision, consistency and speed. The end-markets within this segment are light vehicle and commercial vehicle.

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
General Business Highlights
Our net sales increased 10.0%, including a 4.0% headwind from foreign currency translation, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increased net sales were primarily driven by higher average selling price and product mix of 9.4%, contributions from acquisitions, net with the impact from a one-time event of 2.7%, and higher volumes of 1.9%. The following trends have impacted our segment net sales performance:
•Performance Coatings: Net sales increased 10.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increased net sales were primarily driven by higher average selling price and product mix of 10.0%, contributions from acquisitions, net of the impact from a one-time event of 3.9%, and higher sales volume of 1.1%, partially offset by a 4.6% headwind from unfavorable foreign currency translation driven primarily by weakening of the Euro and Turkish Lira compared to the U.S. Dollar.
•Mobility Coatings: Net sales increased 9.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increased sales were driven by higher average selling price and product mix of 8.1% and higher sales volume of 3.7%, partially offset by unfavorable currency impact of 2.7% driven primarily by weakening of the Euro and Turkish Lira compared to the U.S. Dollar partially offset by strengthening of the Brazilian Real.
Our business serves four end-markets globally with net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, as follows:

Semiconductor chip shortages, supply chain shortages and raw material inflation
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we were negatively impacted globally by semiconductor chip shortages, primarily affecting production levels of our automotive original equipment manufacturer customers in our Light Vehicle end-market, as well as other supply chain shortages, inflation of raw material and logistics constraints. We anticipate the semiconductor chip and other supply chain constraints, including the tightness of raw materials and freight and logistic challenges, and raw material inflation will continue to impact our results throughout the year. We will continue to monitor these conditions and take appropriate actions that we believe will help mitigate costs and other operational impacts.
Russia conflict with Ukraine
Russia's conflict with Ukraine and the sanctions and other measures imposed by various governments in response to this conflict have increased the level of economic and political uncertainty globally. While our operations in Russia and Ukraine constitute less than 1% of our net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2022, a significant escalation or expansion of economic disruption or countries subject to sanctions or the conflict's current scope could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. We are actively monitoring the broader economic impact on commodities and currency exchange rates from the current crisis, especially on the price and supply of raw materials. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded $0.3 million and $6.1 million, respectively, of incremental reserves for accounts receivable, inventory and Business Incentive Plan assets ("BIPs") as a result of sanctions imposed on Russia. Net assets of our Russian subsidiaries at June 30, 2022 is approximately $20.2 million, with $16.6 million comprised of cash and cash equivalents.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, our business continued to recover from the significant adverse impact on the demand for our products and, thus, our income from operations, caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which began in early 2020. While we have seen a return to more stable quarter-over-quarter demand for our products and services, we remain cognizant of future COVID-19 developments, such as impacts from new variants, employee absenteeism, shutdowns or other restrictions, that could impact our future results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, our manufacturing sites and operations in China were temporarily impacted by the lockdowns imposed by the local authorities in response to COVID-19, which reduced demand in the country. The risks and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic are discussed in further detail within Note 1 to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Capital and Liquidity Highlights
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased 7.4 million shares of our common stock for total consideration of $200.1 million as we continue to execute against our previously-approved share repurchase program.
Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") Framework
In January 2022, we announced a new ESG framework that details longer-term ESG goals and strategies. For additional information, see Part I, Item 1, "Business—Environmental, Social and Governance" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
FACTORS AFFECTING OUR OPERATING RESULTS
There have been no changes in the factors affecting our operating results previously reported in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the accompanying financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash flow from operations and available borrowing capacity under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities.
At June 30, 2022, availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was $528.8 million, net of $21.2 million of letters of credit outstanding. All such availability may be utilized without violating any covenants under the credit agreement governing such facility or the indentures governing the Senior Notes. At June 30, 2022, we had $7.9 million of outstanding borrowings under other lines of credit. Our remaining available borrowing capacity under other lines of credit in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions totaled $46.6 million.
We, or our affiliates, at any time and from time to time, may purchase shares of our common stock or the Senior Notes, and may prepay our Term Loans or other indebtedness. Any such purchases of our common stock or Senior Notes may be made through the open market or privately negotiated transactions with third parties or pursuant to one or more redemptions, tender or exchange offers or otherwise, upon such terms and at such prices, as well as with such consideration, as we, or any of our affiliates, may determine.
We have various supplier finance programs in place around the world. We partner with large banking institutions and utilize these programs to enhance our liquidity profile. Depending on the program, the liabilities under the program are classified either as accounts payable or current portion of borrowings on our consolidated balance sheets. Our facility in China is more fully described in Note 15 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Net Cash Used for Operating Activities
Net cash used for operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $31.7 million. Net income before deducting depreciation, amortization and other non-cash items generated cash of $269.1 million. This was offset by net uses of working capital of $300.8 million, for which the most significant drivers were increases in accounts and notes receivable, inventories, prepaid expenses and other assets and other accruals of $190.1 million, $151.4 million, $58.9 million and $39.4 million, respectively. These outflows were primarily driven by timing of collections, inflation of raw material, logistics and energy costs, payments of BIPs and largely seasonal cash payments for employee related benefits. The outflows were partially offset by increases in accounts payable of $147.5 million primarily due to raw material cost inflation, as well as elevated logistics and energy costs.
Net Cash Used for Investing Activities
Net cash used for investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $38.1 million. The primary use was for purchases of property, plant and equipment of $72.0 million, partially offset by proceeds of $35.0 million from settlements and interest from swaps designated as net investment hedges, which are discussed further in Note 16 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Net Cash Used for Financing Activities
Net cash used for financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $260.2 million. The primary uses were for the purchase of our common stock totaling $200.1 million and payments of $57.7 million on borrowings.
Other Impacts on Cash
Currency exchange impact on cash for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were unfavorable by $11.0 million, which was driven primarily by weakening in the Euro and British Pound compared to the U.S. Dollar, partially offset by strengthening in the Russian Ruble compared to the U.S. Dollar.

Six months ended June 30, 2021
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $147.1 million. Net income before deducting depreciation, amortization and other non-cash items generated cash of $326.4 million. This was offset by net uses of working capital of $179.3 million, for which the most significant drivers were increases in accounts and notes receivable, inventory and prepaid expenses and other assets of $154.2 million, $59.1 million and $53.4 million, respectively. These outflows were primarily driven by timing of collections, inflation of raw material costs and building inventory to pre-COVID levels to align with returning demand. The outflows were partially offset by increases in accounts payable of $60.0 million due to increased production and inflation of raw material costs and other accruals of $24.5 million due to accruals related to the operational matter within the Mobility Coatings segment, which is discussed further in Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Net Cash Used for Investing Activities
Net cash used for investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $91.3 million. The primary use was for purchases of property, plant and equipment of $60.3 million and $37.6 million for a business acquisition during April 2021.
Net Cash Used for Financing Activities
Net cash used for financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $169.9 million. The primary uses were for the purchase of our common stock totaling $123.7 million and payments of $55.3 million on borrowings.
Other Impacts on Cash
Currency exchange impact on cash for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were unfavorable by $8.4 million, which was driven primarily by fluctuations in the Euro compared to the U.S. Dollar.
Financial Condition
We had cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 of $500.2 million and $840.6 million, respectively. Of these balances, $301.2 million and $471.9 million were maintained in non-U.S. jurisdictions as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. We believe our organizational structure allows us the necessary flexibility to move funds throughout our subsidiaries to meet our operational working capital needs.
Our business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations and future borrowings may not be available under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness, or to fund our other liquidity needs, including planned capital expenditures. In such circumstances, we may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. We may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we cannot service our indebtedness, we may have to take actions such as selling assets, selling additional equity or reducing or delaying capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions, investments and alliances. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash flow from operations and available borrowing capacity under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Based on our forecasts, we believe that cash flow from operations, available cash on hand and available borrowing capacity under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities and existing lines of credit will be adequate to service debt, fund our cost saving initiatives, meet liquidity needs and fund necessary capital expenditures for the next twelve months.
Our ability to make scheduled payments of principal or interest on, or to refinance, our indebtedness or to fund working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other current obligations will depend on our ability to generate cash from operations. Such cash generation is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control, including the effects of COVID-19 and Russia's conflict with Ukraine.
If required, our ability to raise additional financing and our borrowing costs may be impacted by short and long-term debt ratings assigned by independent rating agencies, which are based, in significant part, on our performance as measured by certain credit metrics such as interest coverage and leverage ratios. Our highly leveraged nature may limit our ability to procure additional financing in the future.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Critical accounting policies are those accounting policies that can have a significant impact on the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations, and that require the use of complex and subjective estimates based upon past experience and management’s judgment. Because of the uncertainty inherent in such estimates, actual results may differ materially from these estimates. The policies applied in preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are those that management believes are the most dependent on estimates and assumptions. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. For a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates as well as a listing of our significant accounting policies, see “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” and “Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are from time to time party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. We are not involved in any litigation other than that which has arisen in the ordinary course of business. We do not expect that any currently pending lawsuits will have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows on a consolidated annual basis except as is set forth in Note 6 to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
SEC regulations require disclosure of certain environmental matters when a governmental authority is a party to the proceedings and such proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions that the Company reasonably believes will exceed a specified threshold. Consistent with SEC rules, the Company will continue to use a threshold of $1 million for such proceedings. At this time, the Company is not aware of any matters that exceed this threshold and that meet the other conditions for disclosure.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes in our risk factors from the risks previously reported in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
