Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In the opinion of Titan International, Inc. (Titan or the Company), the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature and necessary for a fair statement of the Company's financial position as of June 30, 2015, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

Accounting policies have continued without significant change and are described in the Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies contained in the Company's 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules for Form 10-Q's and, therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Sales

Sales and revenues are presented net of sales taxes and other related taxes.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company records all financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, other accruals and notes payable at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short term or stated rates.  Investments in marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value.  The 6.875% senior secured notes due 2020 (senior secured notes due 2020) and 5.625% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2017 (convertible notes) are carried at cost of $400.0 million and $60.2 million at June 30, 2015, respectively. The fair value of the senior secured notes due 2020 at June 30, 2015, as obtained through an independent pricing source, was approximately $367.0 million.

Cash dividends

The Company declared cash dividends of $.005 and $0.010 per share of common stock for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014. The second quarter 2015 cash dividend of $.005 per share of common stock was paid July 15, 2015, to stockholders of record on June 30, 2015.

Use of estimates

The policies utilized by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and require management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual amounts could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

Reclassification

Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. Reclassifications included changes in classification from selling, general and administrative to cost of sales of $1.8 million and $4.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This update amends existing guidance to require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

2. MINING ASSET IMPAIRMENT AND INVENTORY WRITEDOWN

In the second quarter of 2014, the Company recorded an asset impairment and inventory writedown of $23.2 million and $11.6 million, respectively. The impairment was recorded on machinery, equipment and molds used to produce giant mining tires. Mining products are included in the Company's earthmoving/construction segment. In the second quarter of 2014, several large mining equipment manufacturers significantly decreased their sales forecast for mining equipment. The Company's sales of mining product were deteriorating at an accelerated pace. Therefore, the company tested mining related assets for impairment in the second quarter of 2014. The fair value of the mining equipment was determined using a cost and market approach. The inventory writedown was to adjust the value of mining product inventory to estimated market value.

3. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

	June 30, 2015			December 31, 2014

	$	306,087		$	331,432

At June 30, 2015, approximately 9% of the Company's inventories were valued under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. At December 31, 2014, approximately 11% of the Company's inventories were valued under the LIFO method. The remaining inventories were valued under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method or average cost method. All inventories are valued at lower of cost or market.

The charge included $11.4 million of earthmoving/construction goodwill related to the acquisition of Titan Australia; $9.6 million of agricultural goodwill related to the acquisition of the Latin America farm tire business; and $15.6 million of goodwill related to the acquisition of Voltyre-Prom.

The Company’s 5.625% convertible senior subordinated notes (convertible notes) are due January 2017.   The initial base conversion rate for the convertible notes is 93.0016 shares of Titan common stock per $1,000 principal amount of convertible notes, equivalent to an initial base conversion price of approximately $10.75 per share of Titan common stock.  If the price of Titan common stock at the time of determination exceeds the base conversion price, the base conversion rate will be increased by an additional number of shares (up to 9.3002 shares of Titan common stock per $1,000 principal amount of convertible notes) as determined pursuant to a formula described in the indenture.  The base conversion rate will be subject to adjustment in certain events.  The Company’s convertible notes balance was $60.2 million at June 30, 2015.

Titan Europe credit facilities

The Titan Europe credit facilities contain borrowings from various institutions totaling $43.1 million at June 30, 2015. Maturity dates on this debt range from less than one year to nine years and interest rates range from 5% to 6.9%. The Titan Europe facilities are secured by the assets of its subsidiaries in Italy, Spain, Germany and Brazil.

Revolving credit facility

The Company’s $150 million revolving credit facility (credit facility) with agent Bank of America, N.A. has a December 2017 termination date and is collateralized by the accounts receivable and inventory of certain Titan domestic subsidiaries.  Titan's availability under this domestic facility may be less than $150 million as a result of eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances at certain of its domestic subsidiaries. At June 30, 2015, the amount available was $97.5 million as a result of the Company's decrease in sales which impacted both accounts receivable and inventory balances. During the first six months of 2015 and at June 30, 2015, there were no borrowings under the credit facility.

12. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

The Company holds a variable interest in three joint ventures for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Two of the joint ventures operate distribution facilities which primarily distribute mining products. One of these facilities is located in Canada and the other is located in Australia. The Company’s variable interest in these joint ventures relates to sales of Titan product to these entities, consigned inventory and working capital loans. The third joint venture is the consortium which owns Voltyre-Prom, a leading producer of agricultural and industrial tires in Volgograd, Russia. Titan is acting as operating partner with responsibility for Voltyre-Prom’s daily operations. The Company has also provided working capital loans to Voltyre-Prom.

As the primary beneficiary of these variable interest entities (VIEs), the entities’ assets, liabilities and results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The other equity holders’ interests are reflected in “Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests” in the consolidated condensed statements of operations and “Noncontrolling interests” in the consolidated condensed balance sheets.

The following table summarizes the carrying amount of the entities’ assets and liabilities included in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheets at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (amounts in thousands):

13. ROYALTY EXPENSE

The Company has a trademark license agreement with Goodyear to manufacture and sell certain tires in North America and Latin America under the Goodyear name.  The North American and Latin American farm tire royalties were prepaid for seven years as part of the 2011 Goodyear Latin American farm tire acquisition. In May 2012, the Company and Goodyear entered into an agreement under which Titan will sell certain non-farm tire products directly to third party customers and pay a royalty to Goodyear. Royalty expenses recorded were $2.9 million and $3.8 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Royalty expenses were $6.1 million and $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

14. OTHER INCOME

Other income consisted of the following (amounts in thousands):

	Three months ended				Six months ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
Currency exchange gain	$	3,647	$	3,747	$	9,613	$	2,050
Interest income	956		288		1,564		640

Building rental income	258		225		498		431
	$	6,906	$	6,335	$	15,189	$	6,851

During the second quarter of 2015, the Company identified a subsidiary investment which was improperly classified as an intercompany liability. As a result of the correction of this item, the Company reclassified currency translation in other comprehensive income to currency exchange gain in other income. The three and six months ended June 30, 2015, included $5.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively, in currency exchange gain related to this correction. Titan concluded that these amounts are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.

15. INCOME TAXES

The Company recorded income tax expense of $1.5 million and $2.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, as compared to a benefit from income taxes of $(7.2) million and $(10.5) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. The Company's effective income tax rate was 47% and 26% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The Company's 2015 income tax expense and rate differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate to pre-tax income primarily as a result of certain foreign jurisdictions that incurred a full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets created by current year projected losses and foreign income taxed in the U.S. offset by net discrete benefits related to a U.S. check the box election and tax law enactments.

The Company's 2014 income tax benefit and rate differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate to pre-tax income primarily as a result of state income tax expense, unrecognized tax benefits, foreign earnings, and domestic production activities deduction.

17. LITIGATION

The Company is a party to routine legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of business.  Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss, the Company believes at this time that none of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.  However, due to the difficult nature of predicting unresolved and future legal claims, the Company cannot anticipate or predict the material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows as a result of efforts to comply with, or its liabilities pertaining to, legal judgments.

19. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Accounting standards for fair value measurements establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  These tiers are defined as:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following (amounts in thousands):

	June 30, 2015										December 31, 2014

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW

Titan International, Inc. and its subsidiaries are leading manufacturers of wheels, tires, wheel and tire assemblies, and undercarriage systems and components for off-highway vehicles used in the agricultural, earthmoving/construction and consumer segments.  Titan manufactures both wheels and tires for the majority of these market applications, allowing the Company to provide the value-added service of delivering complete wheel and tire assemblies.  The Company offers a broad range of products that are manufactured in relatively short production runs to meet the specifications of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and/or the requirements of aftermarket customers.

Agricultural Segment: Titan's agricultural rims, wheels, tires and undercarriage systems and components are manufactured for use on various agricultural equipment, including tractors, combines, skidders, plows, planters and irrigation equipment, and are sold directly to OEMs and to the aftermarket through independent distributors, equipment dealers and Titan's own distribution centers.

Earthmoving/Construction Segment: The Company manufactures rims, wheels, tires and undercarriage systems and components for various types of off-the-road (OTR) earthmoving, mining, military, construction and forestry equipment, including skid steers, aerial lifts, cranes, graders and levelers, scrapers, self-propelled shovel loaders, articulated dump trucks, load transporters, haul trucks, backhoe loaders, crawler tractors, lattice cranes, shovels and hydraulic excavators.

Consumer Segment: Titan manufactures bias truck tires in Latin America and light truck tires in Russia, provides wheels and tires and assembles brakes, actuators and components for the domestic boat, recreational and utility trailer markets. Titan also offers select products for ATVs, turf, and golf cart applications.

The Company’s major OEM customers include large manufacturers of off-highway equipment such as AGCO Corporation, Caterpillar Inc., CNH Global N.V., Deere & Company, and Kubota Corporation, in addition to many other off-highway equipment manufacturers.  The Company distributes products to OEMs, independent and OEM-affiliated dealers, and through a network of distribution facilities.

The table provides highlights for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, compared to 2014 (amounts in thousands):

	2015		2014			% Increase (Decrease)
Net sales	$	376,067	$	523,731		(28	)%
Gross profit	51,053		20,773			146	%
Income (loss) from operations	7,531		(29,467		)	126	%
Net income (loss)	4,280		(24,891		)	117	%

Quarter: The Company recorded sales of $376.1 million for the second quarter of 2015, which were 28% lower than the second quarter 2014 sales of $523.7 million. Overall sales experienced reductions in volume of 11% and price/mix of 7% as the agricultural market remains in a cyclical downturn. Reduced farm incomes result in lower demand for new equipment, primarily high horsepower agricultural equipment. In addition, competitive pressures and lower raw material prices, particularly in tire manufacturing, negatively impacted sales. Unfavorable currency translation decreased sales by 10%.

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The Company's gross profit was $51.1 million, or 13.6% of net sales, for the second quarter of 2015, compared to $20.8 million, or 4.0% of net sales, in 2014. Income from operations was $7.5 million for the second quarter of 2015, compared to loss from operations of $29.5 million in 2014. Net income was $4.3 million for the second quarter of 2015, compared to net loss of $24.9 million in 2014. Basic earnings per share was $.13 in the second quarter of 2015, compared to loss per share of $(.38) in 2014. In the second quarter of 2014, the Company recorded an asset impairment of $23.2 million on machinery, equipment and molds used to produce giant mining tires. In addition, the Company recorded an inventory writedown of $11.6 million to adjust the value of mining product inventory to estimated market value. When adjusted to remove these items, the gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, was $55.6 million and income from operations was $5.3 million. Despite the large overall sales erosion resulting from the agricultural and mining cyclical downturns, gross margin as a percentage of net sales benefited from the Business Improvement Framework instituted in 2014. Initiatives born from the framework helped to drive headcount reductions, expenditure rationalization, increased productivity, lower raw material costs, lower warranty costs, and pricing optimization.

The table provides highlights for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to 2014 (amounts in thousands):

	2015		2014			% Increase (Decrease)
Net sales	$	778,126	$	1,062,671		(27	)%
Gross profit	93,847		72,750			29	%
Income (loss) from operations	8,340		(29,203		)	129	%
Net income (loss)	3,220		(30,019		)	111	%

Year-to-date: The Company recorded sales of $778.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, which were 27% lower than the six months ended June 30, 2014 sales of $1,062.7 million. Overall sales experienced reductions in volume of 11% and price/mix of 6% as the agricultural market remains in a cyclical downturn. Reduced farm incomes result in lower demand for new equipment, primarily high horsepower agricultural equipment. These decreases were partially offset by stable demand for products used in the construction industry. In addition, competitive pressures and lower raw material prices, particularly in tire manufacturing, negatively impacted sales. Unfavorable currency translation decreased sales by 10%.

The Company's gross profit was $93.8 million, or 12.1% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $72.8 million, or 6.8% of net sales, in 2014. Income from operations was $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to loss from operations of $29.2 million in 2014. Net income was $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to net loss of $30.0 million in 2014. Basic earnings per share was $.13 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to loss per share of $(.34) in 2014. In the second quarter of 2014, the Company recorded an asset impairment of $23.2 million on machinery, equipment and molds used to produce giant mining tires. In addition, the Company recorded an inventory writedown of $11.6 million to adjust the value of mining product inventory to estimated market value. When adjusted to remove these items, the gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2014, was $107.5 million and income from operations was $5.6 million. Despite the large overall sales erosion resulting from the agricultural and mining cyclical downturns, gross margin as a percentage of net sales benefited from the Business Improvement Framework instituted in 2014. Initiatives born from the framework helped to drive headcount reductions, expenditure rationalization, increased productivity, lower raw material costs, lower warranty costs, and pricing optimization.

The Company's application of these policies involves assumptions that require difficult subjective judgments regarding many factors, which, in and of themselves, could materially impact the financial statements and disclosures. A future change in the estimates, assumptions or judgments applied in determining the following matters, among others, could have a material impact on future financial statements and disclosures.

Asset and Business Acquisitions

The allocation of purchase price for asset and business acquisitions requires management estimates and judgment as to expectations for future cash flows of the acquired assets and business and the allocation of those cash flows to identifiable intangible assets in determining the estimated fair value for purchase price allocations. If the actual results differ from the estimates and judgments used in determining the purchase price allocations, impairment losses could occur. To aid in establishing the value of any intangible assets at the time of acquisition, the Company typically engages a professional appraisal firm.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at lower of cost or market. At June 30, 2015, approximately 9% of the Company's inventories were valued under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. The majority of steel material inventory in North America is accounted for under the LIFO method. The remaining inventories were valued under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method or average cost method. Market value is estimated based on current selling prices. Estimated provisions are established for slow-moving and obsolete inventory.

Impairment of Goodwill

The Company reviews goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter of each annual reporting period, and whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. In the fourth quarter of 2014, the recoverability of all goodwill was evaluated by estimating future discounted cash flows. The Company recorded a noncash charge for the impairment of goodwill in the amount of $36.6 million on both a pre-tax and after-tax basis. The charge included $11.4 million of earthmoving/construction goodwill related to the acquisition of Titan Australia; $9.6 million of agricultural goodwill related to the acquisition of the Latin America farm tire business; and $15.6 million of goodwill related to the acquisition of Voltyre-Prom. The Voltyre-Prom goodwill included $11.0 million in the agricultural segment, $2.6 million in the earthmoving/construction segment, and $2.0 million in the consumer segment.

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax provisions are determined using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based upon temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities. The Company assesses the realizability of its deferred tax asset positions and recognizes and measures uncertain tax positions in accordance with accounting standards for income taxes.

Retirement Benefit Obligations

Pension benefit obligations are based on various assumptions used by third-party actuaries in calculating these amounts. These assumptions include discount rates, expected return on plan assets, mortality rates and other factors. Revisions in assumptions and actual results that differ from the assumptions affect future expenses, cash funding requirements and obligations. The Company has three frozen defined benefit pension plans in the United States and pension plans in several foreign countries. During the first six months of 2015, the Company contributed cash funds of $2.2 million to its pension plans. Titan expects to contribute approximately $2.6 million to these pension plans during the remainder of 2015. For more information concerning these costs and obligations, see the discussion of the “Pensions” and Note 29 to the Company's financial statements on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

Product Warranties

The Company provides limited warranties on workmanship of its products in all market segments. The majority of the Company's products have a limited warranty that ranges from zero to ten years, with certain products being prorated after the first year. The Company calculates a provision for warranty expense based on past warranty experience. Actual warranty expense may differ from historical experience. The Company's warranty accrual was $26.5 million at June 30, 2015, and $28.1 million at December 31, 2014.

Net Sales

Quarter: Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, were $376.1 million compared to $523.7 million in 2014, a decrease of 28%. Overall sales experienced reductions in volume of 11% and price/mix of 7% as the agricultural market remains in a cyclical downturn. Reduced farm incomes result in lower demand for new equipment, primarily high horsepower agricultural equipment. The mining industry remains in a cyclical downturn as well. In addition, competitive pressures and lower raw material prices, particularly in tire manufacturing, negatively impacted sales. Unfavorable currency translation decreased sales by 10%.

Year-to-date: Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2015, were $778.1 million compared to $1,062.7 million in 2014, a decrease of 27%. Overall sales experienced reductions in volume of 11% and price/mix of 6% as the agricultural market remains in a cyclical downturn. Reduced farm incomes result in lower demand for new equipment, primarily high horsepower agricultural equipment. The mining industry remains in a cyclical downturn as well. These decreases were partially offset by stable demand for products used in the construction industry. In addition, competitive pressures and lower raw material prices, particularly in tire manufacturing, negatively impacted sales. Unfavorable currency translation decreased sales by 10%.

Cost of Sales, Mining Asset Impairment, Mining Inventory Writedown and Gross Profit

Quarter: Cost of sales was $325.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, compared to $468.2 million in 2014. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2015 was $51.1 million, or 13.6% of net sales, compared to $20.8 million, or 4.0% of net sales for the second quarter of 2014. In the second quarter of 2014, the Company recorded an asset impairment of $23.2 million on machinery, equipment and molds used to produce giant mining tires. In addition, the Company recorded an inventory writedown of $11.6 million to adjust the value of mining product inventory to estimated market value. When adjusted to remove these items, the gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, was $55.6 million. Despite the large overall sales erosion resulting from the agricultural and mining cyclical downturns, gross margin as a percentage of net sales benefited from the Business Improvement Framework instituted in 2014. Initiatives born from the framework helped to drive headcount reductions, expenditure rationalization, increased productivity, lower raw material costs, lower warranty costs, and pricing optimization.

Year-to-date: Cost of sales was $684.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $955.1 million in 2014. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $93.8 million, or 12.1% of net sales, compared to $72.8 million, or 6.8% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2014. In the second quarter of 2014, the Company recorded an asset impairment of $23.2 million on machinery, equipment and molds used to produce giant mining tires. In addition, the Company recorded an inventory writedown of $11.6 million to adjust the value of mining product inventory to estimated market value. When adjusted to remove these items, the gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2014, was $107.5 million. The agricultural equipment market remains in a cyclical downturn, with lower market demand especially for high horsepower agricultural equipment. The mining industry remains in a cyclical downturn as well. Despite the large overall sales erosion resulting from the agricultural and mining cyclical downturns, gross margin as a percentage of net sales benefited from the Business Improvement Framework instituted in 2014. Initiatives born from the framework helped to drive headcount reductions, expenditure rationalization, increased productivity, lower raw material costs, lower warranty costs, and pricing optimization.

Other income	$	6,906	$	6,335	$	15,189	$	6,851

Quarter: Other income was $6.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $6.3 million in 2014.  For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded currency exchange gain of $3.6 million, interest income of $1.0 million, Wheels India Limited equity income of $0.9 million, and discount amortization on prepaid royalty of $0.5 million. For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded currency exchange income of $3.7 million, discount amortization on prepaid royalty of $0.8 million, and Wheels India Limited equity income of $0.5 million,

Year-to-date: Other income was $15.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $6.9 million in 2014.  For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded currency exchange gain of $9.6 million, interest income of $1.6 million, and discount amortization on prepaid royalty of $1.1 million.

Foreign currency gain (losses) in the first six months of 2015 and 2014, primarily reflect the translation of intercompany loans at certain foreign subsidiaries denominated in currencies other than their functional currencies. Since such loans are expected to be settled in cash at some point in the future, these loans are adjusted each reporting period to reflect the current exchange rates. The $9.6 million currency exchange gain at June 30, 2015, included a $3.1 million gain relating to derivative financial instruments on such intercompany loans.

During the second quarter of 2015, the Company identified a subsidiary investment which was improperly classified as an intercompany liability. As a result of the correction of this item, the Company reclassified currency translation in other comprehensive income to currency exchange gain in other income during the current quarter. The three and six months ended June 30, 2015, included $5.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively, in currency exchange gain related to this correction.

Corporate Expenses

Quarter: Income from operations on a segment basis does not include corporate expenses totaling $17.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $17.5 million for 2014. Corporate expenses were composed of selling and marketing expenses of approximately $7 million for each of the quarters ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, respectively; and administrative expenses of approximately $10 million for each of the quarters ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

Year-to-date: Income from operations on a segment basis does not include corporate expenses totaling $33.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $35.1 million for 2014. Corporate expenses were composed of selling and marketing expenses of approximately $15 million and $17 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, respectively; and administrative expenses of approximately $18 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, respectively. Corporate selling and marketing expenses were approximately $2 million lower in the six months ended June 30, 2015 primarily due to decreased selling incentive compensation and lower information technology expenses.

MARKET RISK SENSITIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company's risks related to foreign currencies, commodity prices and interest rates are consistent with those for 2014. For more information, see the “Market Risk Sensitive Instruments” discussion in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

PENSIONS

The Company has three frozen defined benefit pension plans covering certain employees or former employees of three U.S. subsidiaries. The Company also has pension plans covering certain employees of several foreign subsidiaries. These plans are described in Note 29 of the Company's Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Company's recorded liability for pensions is based on a number of assumptions, including discount rates, rates of return on investments, mortality rates and other factors. Certain of these assumptions are determined by the Company with the assistance of outside actuaries. Assumptions are based on past experience and anticipated future trends. These assumptions are reviewed on a regular basis and revised when appropriate. Revisions in assumptions and actual results that differ from the assumptions affect future expenses, cash funding requirements and the carrying value of the related obligations. Titan expects to contribute approximately $2.6 million to these pension plans during the remainder of 2015.

The Company invested a total of $22.5 million in capital expenditures in the first six months of 2015, compared to $30.9 million in 2014. The 2015 and 2014 expenditures represent various equipment purchases and improvements to enhance production capabilities of Titan's existing business and maintaining existing equipment. In the first six months of 2014, cash used for acquisitions of $13.4 million represents additional ownership percentage of Voltyre-Prom, which also decreased restricted cash deposits by $14.3 million.

Financing Cash Flows

Summary of cash flows from financing activities:

(Amounts in thousands)	Six months ended June 30,
	2015			2014			Change
Proceeds from borrowings	$	13,239		$	6,217		$	7,022
Proceeds from exercise of stock options	144			141			3

In the first six months of 2015, $3.8 million of cash was provided by financing activities. This cash was primarily provided by proceeds from borrowing of $13.2 million, partially offset by payment of debt of $8.5 million.

In the first six months of 2014, $47.6 million of cash was used for financing activities. This cash was primarily used for payment on debt of $53.4 million, partially offset by proceeds from borrowings of $6.2 million.

Financing cash flows increased by $51.4 million when comparing the first six months of 2015 to 2014. This increase was primarily the result of the additional proceeds from borrowings.

Other Issues

The Company’s business is subject to seasonal variations in sales that affect inventory levels and accounts receivable balances.  Historically, Titan tends to have higher production levels in the first and second quarters.

Debt Restrictions

The Company’s revolving credit facility (credit facility) contains various restrictions, including:

• Limits on dividends and repurchases of the Company’s stock.

• Restrictions on the ability of the Company to make additional borrowings, or to consolidate, merge or otherwise fundamentally change the ownership of the Company.

• Limitations on investments, dispositions of assets and guarantees of indebtedness.

• Other customary affirmative and negative covenants.

These restrictions could limit the Company’s ability to respond to market conditions, to provide for unanticipated capital investments, to raise additional debt or equity capital, to pay dividends or to take advantage of business opportunities, including future acquisitions.

Liquidity Outlook

At June 30, 2015, the Company had $187.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and no outstanding borrowings on the Company's $150 million credit facility. Titan's availability under this domestic facility may be less than $150 million as a result of eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances at certain of its domestic subsidiaries. At June 30, 2015, the amount available was $97.5 million as a result of the Company's decrease in sales which impacted both accounts receivable and inventory balances. The cash and cash equivalents balance of $187.5 million includes $58.8 million held in foreign countries. The Company's current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate the foreign amounts to fund U.S. operations. However, if foreign funds were needed for U.S. operations, the Company would be required to accrue and pay taxes to repatriate the funds.

Capital expenditures for the remainder of 2015 are forecasted to be approximately $25 million to $30 million.  Cash payments for interest are currently forecasted to be approximately $16 million for the remainder of 2015 based on June 30, 2015 debt balances. The forecasted interest payments are comprised primarily of the semi-annual payment of $13.8 million (due October 1) for the 6.875% senior secured notes.

In the future, Titan may seek to grow by making acquisitions which will depend on the ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates, to negotiate acceptable terms for their acquisition and to finance those acquisitions.

Subject to the terms of indebtedness, the Company may finance future acquisitions with cash on hand, cash from operations, additional indebtedness and/or by issuing additional equity securities.

Cash on hand, anticipated internal cash flows from operations and utilization of remaining available borrowings are expected to provide sufficient liquidity for working capital needs, capital expenditures and potential acquisitions.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This update amends existing guidance to require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

MARKET CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK

In the first half of 2015, Titan experienced lower sales when compared to the sales levels in the first half of 2014.  The lower sales levels were primarily the result of decreased demand for high horsepower equipment used in the agricultural market, which remains in a cyclical downturn, and unfavorable currency translation. These decreases were partially offset by increased demand for products used in the construction industry. In addition, competitive pressures and lower raw material prices, particularly in tire manufacturing, negatively impacted sales.

Energy, raw material and petroleum-based product costs have been volatile and may negatively impact the Company’s margins.  Many of Titan’s overhead expenses are fixed; therefore, lower seasonal trends may cause negative fluctuations in quarterly profit margins and affect the financial condition of the Company.

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

AGRICULTURAL MARKET OUTLOOK

Agricultural market sales were lower in the first half of 2015 when compared to the first half of 2014 due to decreased demand for high horsepower equipment used in the agricultural market.  Farm net income is expected to be reduced in 2015 due to lower commodity prices. Lower income levels are putting pressure on the demand for large farm equipment. In addition, large equipment sales have deteriorated significantly after a robust cycle in recent years past. The mix shift to lower horsepower tractors has eroded both sales and gross margin. Many variables, including weather, commodity prices, export markets and future government policies and payments can greatly influence the overall health of the agricultural economy.

EARTHMOVING/CONSTRUCTION MARKET OUTLOOK

Earthmoving/construction market sales were lower in the first half of 2015 when compared to the first half of 2014 primarily due to unfavorable currency translation. Reduced demand for larger products used in the mining industry is expected to continue for the remainder of 2015 as weakness continues in the mining industry. Demand for small earthmoving/construction equipment used in the housing and commercial construction sectors has improved. Although metals, oil and gas prices may fluctuate in the short-term, in the long-term, these prices are expected to remain at levels that are attractive for continued investment, which should help support future earthmoving and mining sales.  The earthmoving/construction segment is affected by many variables, including commodity prices, road construction, infrastructure, government appropriations, housing starts and other macroeconomic drivers.

CONSUMER MARKET OUTLOOK

Consumer market sales were lower in the first half of 2015, when compared to the first half of 2014. Sales in the consumer market decreased primarily as the result of unfavorable currency translation at overseas facilities. The consumer market is expected to remain highly competitive for the remainder of 2015.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

See the Company's 2014 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K (Item 7A). There has been no material change in this information.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Titan’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2015, because of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) previously disclosed in the Company's 2014 Form 10-K.

Previously Disclosed Material Weakness

Management previously reported a material weakness in the Company's internal control over financial reporting in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. This material weakness related to accounting complexities, insufficient resources, and the challenge of financial controller continuity at select international locations. A material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management is actively taking steps to remediate the previously identified material weakness. Additional resources have been added at international locations. The structure of the corporate accounting group has been reviewed and a new structure identified which will address deficiencies with the structure, strengthen controls and include further segregation of duties. Management is in the process of implementing this structure and has been successful in recruiting the proper resources for several key roles.

Changes in Internal Controls

Other than the remediation steps described above, there were no material changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the second quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluations of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is a party to routine legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of business. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss, the Company believes at this time that none of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. However, due to the difficult nature of predicting unresolved and future legal claims, the Company cannot anticipate or predict the material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows as a result of efforts to comply with, or its liabilities pertaining to, legal judgments.
