Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Titan International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Titan or the Company) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024 (the 2023 Form 10-K). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include estimates and assumptions of management that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Reclassifications

The Company has reclassified certain prior period amounts in the consolidated balance sheet, primarily lease liabilities, to conform with the current period presentation.

Business Combinations

We account for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations, which requires an allocation of the consideration we paid to the identifiable assets, intangible assets and liabilities based on the estimated fair values as of the closing date of the acquisition. The excess of the fair value of the purchase price over the fair values of these identifiable assets, intangible assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill.

Purchased intangibles other than goodwill are initially recognized at fair value and amortized over their useful lives unless those lives are determined to be indefinite. The valuation of acquired assets will impact future operating results. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is determined using an income approach on an individual asset basis. Specifically, we use the multi-period excess earnings method to determine the fair value of customer relationships and the relief-from-royalty approach to determine the fair value of the tradename and proprietary technology. Determining the fair value of acquired intangibles involves significant estimates and assumptions, including forecasted revenue growth rates, EBIT margins, percentage of revenue attributable to the tradename, contributory asset charges, customer attrition rate, market-participant discount rates, the assumed royalty rates and income tax rates.

The determination of the useful life of an intangible asset other than goodwill is based on factors including historical tradename performance with respect to consumer name recognition, geographic market presence, market share, plans for ongoing tradename support and promotion, customer attrition rate, and other relevant factors.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company records all financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, other accruals, revolving credit facility, and notes payable at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short term or stated rates.  Investments in marketable equity securities of $12.7 million are recorded at fair value which approximates market value.  Our 7.00% senior secured notes due 2028 were carried at a cost of $396.7 million at June 30, 2024. The fair value of the senior secured notes due 2028 at June 30, 2024, as determined with the assistance of an independent pricing source, was approximately $384.4 million, which was determined to be a level 2 fair value measurement.

Hyperinflation in Argentina and Turkey

In July 2018 and March 2022, the three-year cumulative rate of inflation for consumer prices and wholesale prices reached a level in excess of 100% for Argentina and Turkey, respectively. As a result, in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, Argentina and Turkey were considered hyperinflationary economies and the Company applied the standard for the year ended December 31, 2023.

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a net monetary loss of $0.4 million and $1.6 million recorded in foreign exchange loss in the consolidated statements of operations associated with the application of ASC 830.

Russia-Ukraine Military Conflict

In February 2022, in response to the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the United States, other North Atlantic Treaty Organization member states, as well as non-member states, announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia, certain Russian citizens and enterprises. The continuation of the conflict triggered additional economic and other sanctions enacted by the United States and other countries throughout the world. The scope of potential additional sanctions is unknown.

The Company currently owns 64.3% of the Voltyre-Prom, a leading producer of agricultural and industrial tires in Volgograd, Russia, which represents approximately 6% and 7% of consolidated assets of Titan as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Russian operations represent 4% and 7% of consolidated global sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, while representing 5% and 6% of consolidated global sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The impact of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine has not had a significant impact on global operations. The Company continues to monitor the potential impacts on the business including the increased cost of energy in Europe and the ancillary impacts that the military conflict could have on other global operations.

Share Repurchase Program

On December 16, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program allowing for the expenditure of up to $50.0 million (the Share Repurchase Program) for the repurchase of the Company's common stock. This authorization took effect immediately and will remain in place for up to three years. Under the Share Repurchase Program Titan repurchased 775,000 shares of its common stock totaling $6.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024, and 875,000 shares of its common stock totaling $7.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2,653,786 shares of its common stock totaling $32.6 million during 2023. As of June 30, 2024, $9.6 million remains available for future share repurchases under this program. The Company records treasury stock using the cost method.

Supplier Financing Program

A subsidiary of Titan participates in supplier financing programs pursuant to credit agreements between certain suppliers and financial institutions. The program enables those suppliers to receive payment from participating financial institutions prior to the payment date specified in the terms between Titan and the supplier. Titan does not incur annual service fees associated with its enrollment in the supplier financing program. The transactions are at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institution, and Titan is not a party to the agreement and has no economic interest in the supplier's decision to receive payment prior to the payment date. The terms between Titan and a supplier, including the amount due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by a supplier's participation in the program. Amounts due to suppliers who participate in the program are included in the accounts payable line item in Titan's Consolidated Balance Sheets and Titan’s payments made under the program are reflected in cash flows from operating activities in Titan's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For suppliers who participate in a supplier financing program, Titan will pay the financial institution directly rather than the supplier. The confirmed obligations under the supplier financing programs included in the accounts payable line item in Titan's Consolidated Balance Sheet were $4.3 million at June 30, 2024, and $7.4 million at December 31, 2023.

New Accounting Pronouncements to be Adopted in Future Periods

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in the ASU require, among other things, disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to an entity's chief operating decision maker (CODM) and a description of other segment items (the difference between segment revenue less the segment expenses disclosed under the significant expense principle and each reported measure of segment profit or loss) by reportable segment, as well as disclosure of the title and position of the CODM, and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Annual disclosures are required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim disclosures are required for periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Retrospective application is required, and early adoption is permitted. These requirements are not expected to have an impact on our financial statements, but will result in significantly expanded reportable segment disclosures.

Titan Europe Credit Facilities

The Titan Europe credit facilities include borrowings from various institutions totaling $19.9 million in aggregate principal amount at June 30, 2024. Maturity dates on this debt range from less than one year to five years. The interest rates range from 0.5% to 6.5%.

Revolving Credit Facility

In connection with the acquisition of Carlstar, Titan entered into a new domestic credit facility which was effective on February 29, 2024. The new credit facility, with Bank of America as agent, consists of a $225.0 million revolving line of credit (the previous credit facility was $125.0 million) and is collateralized by accounts receivable and inventory of certain of the Company's domestic and Canadian subsidiaries. In addition, swingline loans and letters of credit are available under the facility up to an aggregate outstanding amount of $20.0 million for swingline loans and $50.0 million for letters of credit. The credit facility has a five-year term and can be expanded by up to $50.0 million through an uncommitted accordion provision within the agreement. It is scheduled to mature on February 28, 2029 or 91 days prior to the maturity of the Company's 7.00% secured notes due in 2028. The new facility has terms similar to those contained in the previous credit facility as well as other enhancements to further improve the availability within the borrowing base. The interest rate of the credit facility is based on the prevailing SOFR rate subject to certain debt levels within each month. As of June 30, 2024, the interest rate was 7.05%.

The Company's amount available for borrowing under the new credit facility at June 30, 2024 totaled $204.2 million, based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances. With outstanding letters of credit totaling $9.9 million and $127.0 million in borrowings under the revolving credit facility, the net amount available for borrowing under the new credit facility totaled $67.3 million at June 30, 2024. The Company is subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants under the credit facility, including limits on dividends and repurchases of the Company’s stock, that are described in the credit and security agreement. The Company is in compliance with the debt covenants at June 30, 2024.

Prior to February 29, 2024, the Company had a $125.0 million revolving credit facility with BMO Harris Bank N.A., as agent, and other financial institutions party thereto, until the completion of the new credit facility noted above. The $125.0 million credit facility was collateralized by accounts receivable and inventory of certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and was scheduled to mature in October 2026. The credit facility could have been expanded by up to $50.0 million through an accordion provision within the agreement. From time to time Titan's availability under this credit facility could have been less than $125.0 million as a result of outstanding letters of credit and eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances at certain of its domestic subsidiaries.

Other Debt

The Company has a working capital loan at Titan Pneus do Brasil Ltda at varying interest rates from approximately 7% to 7.6%, which totaled $6.9 million at June 30, 2024. The maturity dates on this loan range from one year to two years. The Company expects to negotiate an extension of the maturity date on this loan with the respective financial institution or repay, as needed.

10. LEASES

The Company leases certain buildings and equipment under both operating and finance leases.  Certain lease agreements provide for renewal options, fair value purchase options, and payment of property taxes, maintenance, and insurance by the Company. Under ASC Topic 842, Leases, the Company made an accounting policy election, by class of underlying asset, not to separate non-lease components such as those previously stated from lease components and instead will treat the lease agreement as a single lease component for all asset classes. Operating right-of-use (ROU) assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent Titan's obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease. The majority of Titan's leases are operating leases. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of Titan's leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate (7.27%), based on the information available at the lease commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Amortization expense associated with finance leases is included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, and interest expense associated with finance leases is included in interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

15. INCOME TAXES

The Company recorded income tax expense of $15.5 million and $9.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded income tax expense of $25.2 million and $23.6 million, respectively. The Company's effective income tax rate was 81.9% and 22.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 65.3% and 26.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the rate was negatively impacted by non-deductible interest expense in the United States, foreign branch income related to the Carlstar acquisition,and one-time impacts associated with transaction costs, which were also not fully deductible for income tax purposes. Additionally the rate was impacted by the results of foreign income tax rate differential on the mix of earnings, non-deductible royalty expenses in certain jurisdictions, and certain foreign inclusion items on the domestic provision.

The Company’s 2023 income tax expense and rate differed from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate to pre-tax income primarily as a result of foreign income tax rate differential on the mix of earnings, non-deductible royalty expenses in certain jurisdictions, the valuation allowance on the interest expense carryforward, and certain foreign inclusion items on the domestic provision.

The Company continues to monitor the realization of its deferred tax assets and assesses the need for a valuation allowance. The Company analyzes available positive and negative evidence to determine if a valuation allowance is needed based on the weight of the evidence. This objectively verifiable evidence primarily includes the past three years' profit and loss positions. This process requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that are uncertain in nature. The Company has established valuation allowances with respect to certain deferred tax assets in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions and continues to monitor and assess the need for valuation allowances in all its jurisdictions.

The Organization Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) introduced Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (“BEPS”) Pillar 2 rules that impose a global minimum tax rate of 15%. Numerous countries, including European Union member states, have enacted or are expected to enact legislation to be effective as early as January 1, 2024, with general implementation of a global minimum tax by January 1, 2025. Titan will continue to evaluate the potential impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures but does not anticipate a material impact. Titan did not record any tax associated with Pillar 2 in the June 30, 2024 financial statements.

consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows as a result of efforts to comply with, or liabilities pertaining to, legal judgments. In the opinion of management, the Company is not currently involved in any legal proceedings which, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

18. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has aggregated its operating units into reportable segments based on its three customer markets: agricultural, earthmoving/construction, and consumer. These segments are based on the information used by the chief executive officer to make certain operating decisions, allocate portions of capital expenditures and assess segment performance. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1, “Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies.” Segment external revenues, expenses, and income from operations are determined on the basis of the results of operations of operating units of manufacturing facilities. Segment assets are generally determined on the basis of an allocation of the tangible assets located at such operating units’ manufacturing facilities and the intangible assets associated with the acquisitions of such operating units. However, certain operating units’ property, plant, and equipment balances are carried at the corporate level.

Titan is organized primarily on the basis of products being included in three marketing segments, with each reportable segment including wheels, tires, wheel/tire assemblies, and undercarriage systems and components. Given the integrated manufacturing operations and common administrative and marketing support, a substantial number of allocations primarily based on segment sales data must be made to determine operating segment data.

The table below presents information about certain operating results, separated by market segments, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (amounts in thousands):

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (MD&A) is designed to provide a reader of the financial statements included in this quarterly report with a narrative from the perspective of the management of Titan International, Inc. (Titan or the Company) on Titan's financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and other factors that may affect the Company's future results. The MD&A in this quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and other financial information included elsewhere in this quarterly report and the MD&A and audited consolidated financial statements and related notes in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024 (the 2023 Form 10-K).

Acquisition of Carlstar

On February 29, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests of Carlstar. The agreements associated with the purchase of the equity interests of Carlstar are included in the Exhibits to our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 and the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 29, 2024.

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW

Titan International, Inc., together with its subsidiaries, is a global wheel, tire, and undercarriage industrial manufacturer and supplier that services customers across the globe. As a leading manufacturer in the off-highway industry, Titan produces a broad range of products to meet the specifications of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and aftermarket customers in the agricultural, earthmoving/construction, and consumer markets. Titan manufactures and sells certain tires under the Goodyear Farm Tire, Titan Tire, Carlstar and Voltyre-Prom Tire brands and has complete research and development facilities to validate tire and wheel designs. Carlstar sells tire products under the Carlisle® brand under a long-term license agreement and also sells tires under other recognized brand names, including ITP®, Trail Wolf®, Links®, USA Trail® and Carlisle Radial Trail HD™ highway trailer tires.

Agricultural Segment: Titan’s agricultural wheels, tires, and components are manufactured for use on various agricultural equipment, including tractors, combines, skidders, plows, planters, and irrigation equipment, and are sold directly to OEMs and to the aftermarket through independent distributors, equipment dealers, and Titan’s distribution centers. The wheels range in diameter from nine inches to 54 inches, with the 54-inch diameter being the largest agricultural wheel manufactured in North America. Basic configurations are combined with distinct variations (such as different centers and a wide range of material thickness) allowing the Company to offer a broad line of products to meet customer specifications. Titan’s agricultural tires range from approximately one foot to approximately seven feet in outside diameter and from five inches to 55 inches in width. Agricultural tires are offered under the Goodyear Farm Tire, Titan Tire, Carlstar and Voltyre-Prom brands with a full portfolio of sizes, load carrying capabilities, and tread patterns necessary for the markets served. The Company offers the added value of delivering a complete wheel and tire assembly to OEM and aftermarket customers.

Earthmoving/Construction Segment: The Company manufactures wheels, tires, and undercarriage systems and components for various types of OTR earthmoving, mining, military, construction, and forestry equipment, including skid steers, aerial lifts, cranes, graders and levelers, scrapers, self-propelled shovel loaders, articulated dump trucks, load transporters, haul trucks, backhoe loaders, crawler tractors, lattice cranes, shovels, and hydraulic excavators. The Company provides OEM and aftermarket customers with a broad range of earthmoving/construction wheels ranging in diameter from 15 to 63 inches and in weight from 125 pounds to 7,000 pounds. The 63-inch diameter wheel is the largest manufactured for the global earthmoving/construction market. Titan’s earthmoving/construction tires are offered in the Titan brand and range from approximately three feet to approximately 13 feet in outside diameter and in weight from 50 pounds to 12,500 pounds. Earthmoving/construction tires offered by Titan serve virtually every off-road application in the industry with some of the highest load requirements in the most severe applications. The Company also offers the added value of wheel and tire assembly for certain applications in the earthmoving/construction segment.

Consumer Segment: In February 2024, Titan acquired Carlstar, which is a global manufacturer and distributor of wheels and tires for a variety of end-market verticals including outdoor power equipment, power sports, and high speed trailers. Carlstar is primarily concentrated in the consumer segment, but also manufactures and sells small to midsize agricultural tires.

Titan manufactures bias truck tires in Latin America and light truck tires in Russia.  Titan also offers select products for ATVs, side-by-sides, rock climbers, turf, and have recently expanded our offering into the lawn and garden segment with a major OE customer. This segment also includes sales that do not readily fall into the Company's other segments, such as custom rubber stock mixing sales to a variety of OEMs in tangential industries.

The Company’s top customers, including global leaders in agricultural and construction equipment manufacturing, have been purchasing products from Titan or its predecessors for numerous years. Customers including AGCO Corporation, Caterpillar Inc., CNH Global N.V., Deere & Company, Hitachi, Ltd., Kubota Corporation, Liebherr, and Volvo have helped sustain Titan’s market leading position in wheel, tire, assembly, and undercarriage products.

MARKET CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK

AGRICULTURAL MARKET OUTLOOK

Agriculture-related commodity prices have come off the recent highs reached over the last couple years, however, population growth, a shift in consumer preference towards higher protein diets, and the replacement of an aging large equipment fleet in favor of newer and higher productivity technology, are market conditions which are anticipated to support continued demand for our products in the mid- to long-term time horizon. The agricultural market is currently experiencing a significant slowdown in customer demand, however, the underlying market conditions mentioned previously provide support for the mid- to long-term demand for our products. Many more variables, including weather, volatility in the price of commodities, grain prices,

25

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

export markets, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, government policies, subsidies, and the demand for used equipment can greatly affect the Company's performance in the agricultural market in a given period.

EARTHMOVING/CONSTRUCTION MARKET OUTLOOK

The earthmoving/construction segment is affected by many variables, including commodity prices, road construction, infrastructure, government appropriations, housing starts, and other macroeconomic drivers. The construction market is primarily driven by country-specific GDP and the need for infrastructure developments. The earthmoving/construction markets are currently experiencing a slowdown in OEM demand, however, we expect the market to stabilize over the mid to long term given the level of mining capital budgets and forecasted GDP growth. Mineral commodity prices are at relatively high levels, which also supports the forecasted mid- to long-term growth.

CONSUMER MARKET OUTLOOK

The consumer market consists of several distinct product lines within different regions. These products include specialty tires and products under the Carlstar brands within powersports, outdoor power equipment and high-speed trailers. The consumer market also includes light truck tires and other specialty products, including custom mixing of rubber stock, and train brakes. Some aspects of the markets are experiencing slowdown, particularly in the Americas. The consumer segment pace of growth can vary from period to period and is affected by many variables including inflationary impacts, consumer spending, interest rates, government policies, and other macroeconomic drivers.

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 were $532.2 million, compared to $481.2 million in the comparable period of 2023. This growth was primarily driven by higher volumes in the consumer segment, bolstered by the net sales contribution from the Carlstar acquisition completed on February 29, 2024. The sales increase was partially offset by reduced sales in the agricultural and earthmoving/construction segments, stemming from weakened global agriculture end customer demand and lower steel prices in Europe. Furthermore, the net sales increase was impacted by negative price effects and an unfavorable currency translation impact of 3.7%.

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $1,014.4 million, compared to $1,029.8 million in the comparable period of 2023. Net sales change was primarily attributable to lower demand for agriculture and construction equipment, the adverse impact of price, particularly lower steel prices in Europe, as well as a 3.0% unfavorable foreign currency translation effect. The decrease was partially offset by increased sales volumes, resulting from the positive contribution from the Carlstar acquisition.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $80.4 million, or 15.1% of net sales, compared to $85.9 million, or 17.9% of net sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The changes in gross profit and margin were attributed to

26

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

negative price/mix, reduced fixed cost leverage, higher material costs and inventory revaluation step-up of $7.3 million associated with the Carlstar purchase price allocation. Excluding the inventory revaluation step-up, adjusted gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2024 would have been 16.5% of net sales.

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $157.8 million, or 15.6% of net sales, compared to $181.5 million, or 17.6% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The changes in gross profit and gross margin for six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the prior year period were primarily due to lower sales volume, negative price/mix resulting in reduced fixed cost leverage and inventory revaluation step-up of $10.7 million associated with the Carlstar purchase price allocation. Excluding the inventory revaluation step-up, adjusted gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2024 would have been 16.6% of net sales.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the three months ended June 30, 2024 were $51.6 million, or 9.7% of net sales, compared to $34.9 million, or 7.2% of net sales, three months ended June 30, 2023. The change in SG&A for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the prior year period was attributable to the ongoing SG&A associated with the Carlstar operations, specifically related to the management of distribution centers.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $91.0 million, or 9.0% of net sales, compared to $69.3 million, or 6.7% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The change in SG&A for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the prior year period was primarily driven by the continuing SG&A incurred on the Carlstar operations, which includes the management of distribution centers. Additionally, general inflationary cost impacts, such as rising personnel-related expenses, also contributed to the overall increase in SG&A during this period.

Acquisition Related Expenses

Acquisition related expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $6.2 million, associated with the one-time transaction costs for Carlstar.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development (R&D) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 were $4.2 million, or 0.8% of net sales, compared to $3.2 million, or 0.7% of net sales, for the comparable period in 2023. R&D expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $7.9 million, or 0.8% of net sales, compared to $6.2 million, or 0.6% of net sales, for the comparable period in 2023. R&D spending reflects initiatives to improve product designs and an ongoing focus on innovation and quality.

Royalty Expense

The Company has trademark license agreements with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company to manufacture and sell certain farm tires under the Goodyear name. These agreements cover sales in North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Russia, and other Commonwealth of Independent States countries. The Company also has a trademark license agreement with Carlisle Companies, Inc. to manufacture and sell certain tires under the Carlisle brand. Royalty expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 were $2.3 million, or 0.4% of net sales, compared to $1.9 million, or 0.4% of net sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Royalty expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $5.3 million, or 0.5% of net sales, compared to $4.9 million, or 0.5% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Income from Operations

Income from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $22.3 million, compared to income from operations of $45.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $47.4 million, compared to income from operations of $101.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The change in income from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the prior year periods were primarily due to lower gross profit and the net result of the items previously discussed.

OTHER PROFIT/LOSS ITEMS

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense was $7.2 million and $5.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $12.7 million and $12.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

27

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The increase in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was attributable to a new domestic credit facility, which became effective on February 29, 2024, in connection with the acquisition of Carlstar. This resulted in additional interest expenses being recorded during this period. The higher interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was also primarily driven by the new domestic credit facility. However, this increase was partially offset by a rise in interest income generated from financial investments in Latin America. These changes in interest expenses reflected the Company's strategic financial decisions and its ongoing efforts to optimize its capital structure and financing activities.

Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss)

Foreign exchange gain was $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a nominal gain for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Foreign exchange gain was $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a loss of $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increases in foreign exchange gains during the three and six months ended on June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year periods, were attributable to the favorable impact of the translation of intercompany loans at certain foreign subsidiaries, which are denominated in local currencies rather than the reporting currency, which is the United States dollar. Since such loans are expected to be settled at some point in the future, these loans are adjusted each reporting period to reflect the current exchange rates.

Other Income

Other income was $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to other income of $1.2 million in the comparable period of 2023. This change was primarily driven by a gain of $1.9 million from a property insurance settlement, which consisted of insurance proceeds received net of costs incurred to repair one of our operating facilities in Italy.

Other income was $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to other income of $1.9 million in the comparable period of 2023. The increase was primarily due to a gain of $1.9 million from a property insurance settlement as discussed above.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $15.5 million and $9.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded income tax expense of $25.2 million and $23.6 million, respectively. The Company's effective income tax rate was 81.9% and 22.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 65.3% and 26.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the income tax expense differed in each period due to an overall decrease in pre-tax income. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the rate was negatively impacted by non-deductible interest expense in the United States, foreign branch income related to the Carlstar acquisition,and one-time impacts associated with transaction costs, which were also not fully deductible for income tax purposes. Additionally the rate was impacted by the results of foreign income tax rate differential on the mix of earnings, non-deductible royalty expenses in certain jurisdictions, and certain foreign inclusion items on the domestic provision. Without these impacts, the income tax rate would have been about 36% of pre-tax income, a slightly elevated rate due to the majority of pre-tax income being derived from foreign jurisdictions.

The Company’s 2023 income tax expense and rate differed from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate to pre-tax income primarily as a result of foreign income tax rate differential on the mix of earnings, non-deductible royalty expenses in certain jurisdictions, the valuation allowance on the interest expense carryforward, and certain foreign inclusion items on the domestic provision.

Net Income and Earnings per Share

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $3.4 million, compared to net income of $31.9 million in the comparable period of 2023. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, basic earnings per share were $0.03 and $0.48, respectively, and diluted earnings per share were $0.03 and $0.48, respectively. The Company's net income and earnings per share changes were due to the items previously discussed.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $13.4 million, compared to net income of $65.3 million in the comparable period of 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, basic earnings per share were $0.16 and $0.99, respectively, and diluted earnings per share were $0.16 and $0.98, respectively. The Company's net income and earnings per share changes were due to the items previously discussed.

Income from operations	15,772			32,119			(50.9)	%	39,782			64,688			(38.5)	%

Net sales in the agricultural segment were $216.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $269.1 million for the comparable period in 2023. The net sales change was primarily attributed to significantly reduced global demand for agricultural equipment, most notably in North America and Brazil. Additionally, an unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation by 5.3% contributed to the change in net sales.

Gross profit in the agricultural segment was $32.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $48.7 million in the comparable period in 2023.  The change in gross profit was attributed to the lower sales volume, reduced fixed

cost leverage, negative price/mix and higher material costs and inventory revaluation step-up associated with the Carlstar purchase price allocation.

Income from operations in the Company's agricultural segment was $15.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to income of $32.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The change in income from operations was mainly due to the lower gross profit resulting from the decline in net sales.

Net sales in the agricultural segment were $456.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $575.0 million for the comparable period in 2023. The net sales change was primarily attributed to lower sales volume in North and South America, reflecting the soft demand for agricultural equipment and a decline in Brazilian economic activity. The unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation by 4.8% also contributed to the change in net sales.

Gross profit in the agricultural segment was $72.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $98.0 million in the comparable period in 2023.  The change in gross profit was attributed to the lower sales volume, reduced fixed cost leverage and higher material costs.

Income from operations in the Company's agricultural segment was $39.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to income of $64.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The overall change in income from operations was primarily due to the lower gross profit resulting from the decrease in net sales.

Earthmoving/Construction Segment Results

Income from operations	7,047			14,522			(51.5)	%	15,881			38,060			(58.3)	%

The Company's earthmoving/construction segment net sales were $165.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $174.7 million in the comparable period in 2023. Sales volume was higher during the period driven by increased sales in the undercarriage business and the positive contribution from the Carlstar acquisition. However, this increase was more than offset by the impact of contractual price givebacks resulting from lower raw material costs, particularly lower steel prices in Europe, as well as an unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation by 1.5%.

Gross profit in the earthmoving/construction segment was $21.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $29.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The change in gross profit was primarily attributed to lower sales volume in North America, and reduced fixed cost leverage.

The Company's earthmoving/construction segment income from operations was $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 , as compared to $14.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The change was primarily due to lower sales volume, resulting in lower fixed cost leverage, and its impact on gross margins.

The Company's earthmoving/construction segment net sales were $330.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $373.6 million in the comparable period in 2023. The change in earthmoving/construction sales was mainly due to the impact of contractual price givebacks resulting from lower raw material costs, lower sales volume in the Americas and the European business due to a slowdown in construction OEM customers, and a 0.5% negative impact from foreign currency translation.

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Gross profit in the earthmoving/construction segment was $44.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $66.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Similar to the three-month period, the change in gross profit was attributed to lower sales volume, negative/price mix, and reduced fixed cost leverage.

The Company's earthmoving/construction segment income from operations was $15.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $38.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The change was attributed to lower sales volume and its impact on gross margins.

Consumer Segment Results

Consumer segment results for the periods presented below were as follows (amounts in thousands, except percentages):

	Three months ended								Six months ended
	June 30,								June 30,
	2024			2023			% Increase (Decrease)		2024			2023			% Increase (Decrease)
Net sales	$	150,276		$	37,345		302.4	%	$	227,604		$	81,207		180.3	%

Income from operations	6,449			5,865			10.0	%	11,562			12,657			(8.7)	%

Consumer segment net sales were $150.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $37.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This growth was primarily driven by increased sales volumes resulting from the positive impact of the Carlstar acquisition. The increase was partially offset by negative price/product mix and reduced sales volumes in the Americas region due to weaker market conditions.

Gross profit from the consumer segment was $26.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $8.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by the benefits of the Carlstar acquisition. The shift in profit margin was influenced by the inventory revaluation step-up of $6.0 million associated with the Carlstar purchase price allocation and reduced fixed cost leverage resulting from lower sales volumes in the Americas.

Consumer segment income from operations was $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to income of $5.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to increased sales volumes as mentioned above.

Consumer segment net sales were $227.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $81.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in sales was driven by the positive effects of the Carlstar acquisition. However, lower sales volumes in the Americas stemming from challenging market conditions, and unfavorable foreign currency impact of 1.6% offsetting some of this increase.

Gross profit from the consumer segment was $40.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $17.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in gross profit was influenced by the Carlstar acquisition. The change in profit margin from 21.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 17.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was primarily due to the effect of the inventory revaluation step-up of $8.6 million associated with the Carlstar acquisition. The impact of lower sales volume in the Americas on fixed cost leverage was also a driver in the change in profit margin.

Consumer segment income from operations was $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to income of $12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The change was due to lower profitability stemming from the aforementioned factors.

Corporate & Unallocated Expenses

Income from operations on a segment basis did not include unallocated costs of $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and $19.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Unallocated expenses are primarily comprised of corporate selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in corporate and unallocated expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the prior year period was related to the increase in certain SG&A expenses primarily associated with legal costs. The increase in corporate and unallocated expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the prior year period was attributed to the transaction costs associated with the Carlstar acquisition in the first quarter of 2024 of $6.2 million.

Cash Flows

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $224.1 million of cash, which increased as compared to the December 31, 2023 ending balance of $220.3 million, due to the following items:

Operating Cash Flows

Summary of cash flows from operating activities:

(Amounts in thousands)	Six months ended June 30,

Other operating activities	837		4,307		(3,470)
Cash provided by operating activities	$	72,846	$	88,890	$	(16,044)

During the first half of 2024, cash flows provided by operating activities was $72.8 million. This was mainly driven by working capital reduction and reduction in net income to $13.4 million. The net income of $13.4 million included a non-cash charge for depreciation and amortization expense of $27.4 million. Additionally, the Company incurred $6.2 million in transaction costs associated with the Carlstar acquisition in the first quarter of 2024.

Operating cash flows decreased by $16.0 million when comparing the first half of 2024 to the comparable period in 2023. This decline was primarily attributed to lower net income, partially offset by the positive impact of focused working capital management. Key factors contributing to this management included a $29.1 million increase in accounts payable, a $7.9 million improvement due to collections efforts on accounts receivable, and a $10.7 million improvement in inventory management.

Summary of the components of cash conversion cycle:

	June 30,	December 31,	June 30,
	2024	2023	2023
Days sales outstanding	54	51	53
Days inventory outstanding	97	104	90
Days payable outstanding	(53)	(57)	(55)
Cash conversion cycle	98	98	88

Cash conversion cycle increased by 10 days when comparing June 30, 2024 to June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily due to the Carlstar acquisition, which led to additional accounts receivable and inventory at the end of the second quarter of 2024, as a result of its customer mix and use of distribution centers to have product on demand for customers. Inventory management is critical for the business in preparation for the future periods to supply customers efficiently, which was the driver of increased days in inventory at the end of June 30, 2024.

Investing Cash Flows

Summary of cash flows from investing activities:

Cash used for investing activities	$	(171,272)	$	(27,278)	$	(143,994)

During the first half of 2024, Titan reported a net cash outflow of $171.3 million from investing activities, as compared to the $27.3 million outflow recorded in the same period of 2023. This rise was primarily attributed to the acquisition of Carlstar for a cash consideration of $142.2 million, which included an additional payment of $18.4 million for excess working capital to the sellers, which has now been recovered through active working capital management during the quarter. The Company also invested a total of $34.2 million in capital expenditures in the first half of 2024, compared to $27.6 million in the corresponding period of 2023. These capital expenditures were directed toward the replacement and enhancement of plant equipment, as well as the procurement of new tools, dies, and molds to support new product development initiatives. The increased capital outlay in 2024 reflects Titan's strategic efforts to improve its existing facilities, enhance manufacturing capabilities, and drive operational efficiency and labor productivity gains. The proceeds from property insurance settlement of $3.5 million in the first half of 2024 was relate to the repair of one of our operating facilities in Italy associated with a 2023 hail storm weather event.

Financing Cash Flows

Summary of cash flows from financing activities:

(Amounts in thousands)	Six months ended June 30,
	2024		2023		Change
Proceeds from borrowings	$	159,539	$	4,373	$	155,166
Payment on debt	(34,095)		(21,030)		(13,065)

Cash provided by (used for) financing activities	$	113,875	$	(25,795)	$	139,670

During the first half of 2024, $113.9 million cash was provided by financing activities. This was primarily driven by the acquisition of Carlstar on February 29, 2024, for which Titan borrowed $147.0 million under a new domestic credit facility.

During the first half of 2023, the Company made debt payments of $21.0 million and repurchased common stock of $6.4 million, partially offset by proceeds from borrowings of $4.4 million.

Additionally, Titan issued common stock worth $168.7 million in connection with the business acquisition of Carlstar. This was reflected in “Non cash financing activity” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

•When remaining availability under the credit facility is less than the greater of (i) $17 million and (ii) 10% of the credit facility’s line cap (the line cap being the lesser of our borrowing base or the lenders’ commitments under the credit facility), the Company will be required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0 (calculated quarterly on a trailing four quarter basis);

•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;

•Limits on investments, dispositions of assets, and guarantees of indebtedness; and

•Other customary affirmative and negative covenants.

These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications that are described in the credit and security agreement. These restrictions could limit the Company’s ability to respond to market conditions, provide for unanticipated capital investments, raise additional debt or equity capital, pay dividends, repurchase stock or take advantage of business opportunities, including future acquisitions. The Company is in compliance with these debt covenants at June 30, 2024.

Liquidity Outlook

At June 30, 2024, the Company had $224.1 million of cash and cash equivalents. At June 30, 2024, there were $127.0 million of borrowings under the Company's $225 million credit facility. Titan's availability under this credit facility may be less than $225 million as a result of outstanding letters of credit and eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances at certain domestic and Canadian subsidiaries. Based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances, the Company's amount available for borrowing totaled $204.2 million at June 30, 2024. With outstanding letters of credit totaling $9.9 million, the net amount available for borrowing under the credit facility totaled $67.3 million at June 30, 2024. The cash and cash equivalents balance of $224.1 million included $188.0 million held in foreign countries.

The Company is expecting full year capital expenditures to be approximately $55 million to $65 million. These capital expenditures are anticipated to be used primarily to continue to enhance the Company’s existing facilities and manufacturing capabilities and drive productivity gains, along with the purchase of new tools, dies and molds related to new product development.

Cash payments for interest are currently forecasted to between $22 million and $24 million for the remainder of 2024 based on June 30, 2024 debt balances. The forecasted interest payment is comprised primarily of the semi-annual payment of $14 million to be paid in October 2024 for the 7.00% senior secured notes, and between $6 million and $8 million of payments on the credit facility, which will be variable dependent upon on the prevailing SOFR rate and debt levels within each month.

Cash and cash equivalents along with anticipated internal cash flows from operations and utilization of availability on global credit facilities, are expected to provide sufficient liquidity for working capital needs, debt maturities, and capital expenditures. Potential divestitures and unencumbered assets may also be a means to provide for future liquidity needs.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

There were no material changes in the Company’s Critical Accounting Estimates since the filing of the 2023 Form 10-K. As discussed in the 2023 Form 10-K, the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions.  Refer to Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies in Part I, Item 1, Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q for a discussion of the Company’s updated accounting policies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Titan is exposed to market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, and commodity price fluctuations. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2023. For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Item 7A - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk included in the 2023 Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Titan management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)) as of June 30, 2024. Based on that evaluation, the

36

Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2024, Titan's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by Titan in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported accurately and within the time frames specified in the SEC's rules and forms and accumulated and communicated to Titan management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As disclosed in Note 2. Business Combination in Part I, Item 1, Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q, Titan acquired Carlstar on February 29, 2024. The total revenues of Carlstar represented approximately 25.3% and 18.5% of the total net sales as shown on our Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and Carlstar’s total assets constituted approximately 11.2% of total assets as shown on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2024. Titan is currently integrating Carlstar into our overall internal control over financial reporting process and, consistent with interpretive guidance issued by the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, is excluding the business from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024. In accordance with such guidance, an assessment of recent business combinations may be omitted from management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting for up to one year following the acquisition.

Changes in Internal Controls

As noted above, we acquired Carlstar on February 29, 2024. We are integrating Carlstar into our overall internal control over

financial reporting process. At this time, we anticipate that the scope of our assessment of our internal control over financial

reporting for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 will exclude Carlstar’s internal control over financial reporting.

Other than as set forth above, there were no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 and that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

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