SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities law. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In many cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar words. Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, but are not limited to, statements about:

the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and results of operations;
competition from other wind blade and wind blade turbine manufacturers;
our ability to procure adequate supplies of raw materials and components in a cost-effective manner to fulfill our volume commitments to our customers;
the discovery of defects in our products and our ability to estimate the future cost of warranty campaigns;
growth of the wind energy and electric vehicle markets and our addressable markets for our products and services;
the potential impact of the increasing prevalence of auction-based tenders in the wind energy market and increased competition from solar energy on our gross margins and overall financial performance;
our future financial performance, including our net sales, cost of goods sold, gross profit or gross margin, operating expenses, ability to generate positive cash flow, and ability to achieve or maintain profitability;
changes in domestic or international government or regulatory policy, including without limitation, changes in trade policy and a potential extension of the Production Tax Credit in the United States;
the sufficiency of our cash and cash equivalents and our ability to raise additional capital to meet our liquidity needs;
our ability to attract and retain customers for our products, and to optimize product pricing;
our ability to effectively manage our growth strategy and future expenses, including our startup and transition costs;
our ability to successfully expand in our existing wind energy markets and into new international wind energy markets, including our ability to expand our field service inspection and repair services business and manufacture wind blades for offshore wind energy projects;
our ability to successfully open new manufacturing facilities, take over existing facilities of our customers and expand our existing facilities on time and on budget;
the impact of the accelerated pace of new product and wind blade model introductions on our business and our results of operations;
our ability to successfully expand our transportation business and execute upon our strategy of entering new markets outside of wind energy;
worldwide economic conditions and their impact on customer demand;
our ability to maintain, protect and enhance our intellectual property;
our ability to comply with existing, modified or new laws and regulations applying to our business, including the imposition of new taxes, duties or similar assessments on our products;
the attraction and retention of qualified employees and key personnel;
our ability to maintain good working relationships with our employees, and avoid labor disruptions, strikes and other disputes with labor unions that represent certain of our employees; and
the potential impact of one or more of our customers becoming bankrupt or insolvent, or experiencing other financial problems.

These forward-looking statements are only predictions. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to materially differ from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or

2


 

implied by these forward-looking statements. We have described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 25, 2021 the principal risks and uncertainties that we believe could cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as guarantees of future events.

The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent our views as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or developments after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, or investments we may make.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by us without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted, as permitted by the SEC, although we believe the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented herein not misleading. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of our management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position at September 30, 2021, and the results of our operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full years. Certain prior period amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TPI Composites, Inc. and all of our majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

References to TPI Composites, Inc, the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” in these notes refer to TPI Composites, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Convertible Instruments

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. This ASU is intended to simplify the accounting for certain convertible instruments with characteristics of both liability and equity. This ASU removes certain accounting models which separate the embedded conversion features from the host contract for convertible instruments. As a result, after the adoption of this guidance, an entity’s convertible debt instrument will be wholly accounted for as debt. This ASU also expands disclosure requirements for convertible instruments and simplifies areas of the guidance for diluted earnings-per-share calculations by requiring the use of the if-converted method.

This ASU is effective for all public business entities (other than smaller reporting companies) for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and can be adopted on either a fully retrospective or modified retrospective basis. An entity should adopt the guidance at the beginning of its annual fiscal year. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2021 on a modified retrospective basis and it did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. This ASU only applies to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. This ASU is effective for all entities beginning on March 12, 2020 and entities may elect to apply the ASU prospectively through December 31, 2022. The FASB later issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate

TPI COMPOSITES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

Reform (Topic 848): Scope, to clarify the scope of Topic 848 so that derivatives affected by the discounting transition are explicitly eligible for certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Contract assets consist of the amount of revenue recognized over time for performance obligations in production where control has transferred to the customer but the contract does not yet allow for the customer to be billed. Typically, customers are billed when the product finishes production and meets the technical specifications contained in the contract. The majority of the contract asset balance relates to materials procured based on customer specifications. The contract assets are recorded as current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contract liabilities consist of advance payments in excess of revenue earned. These amounts primarily represent progress payments received as precision molding and assembly systems are being manufactured. The contract liabilities are recorded as current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are reduced as we record revenue over time.

These contract assets and liabilities are reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets net on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

Contract assets and contract liabilities consisted of the following:

Contract assets increased by $27.8 million from December 31, 2020 to September 30, 2021 due to an increase in customer specific material purchases and incremental unbilled production during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Contracts liabilities decreased by $0.6 million from December 31, 2020 to September 30, 2021 primarily due to the revenue earned related to precision molding and assembly systems and wind blades being produced exceeding the amounts billed to customers during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of revenue related to precision molding and assembly systems and wind blades, which was included in the corresponding contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.

Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price for which work has not been performed and excludes any unexercised contract options. The transaction price includes estimated variable consideration as determined based on the estimated production output within the range of the contractual guaranteed minimum volume obligations and production capacity.

(Unaudited)

 

As of September 30, 2021, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations to be satisfied in future periods was approximately $3.1 billion. We estimate that we will recognize the remaining performance obligations as revenue as follows:

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, net revenue recognized from our performance obligations satisfied in previous periods decreased by $7.3 million and $19.8 million, respectively, as compared to increases of $14.8 million and $15.4 million, respectively, in the same periods in 2020. The current year decreases primarily relates to changes in certain of our estimated total contract values and related direct costs to complete the performance obligations.

Note 3. Significant Risks and Uncertainties

Our revenues and receivables are earned from a small number of customers. As such, our production levels are dependent on these customers’ orders. See Note 13, Concentration of Customers.

We may be required to reinstate temporary production suspensions or volume reductions at our manufacturing facilities to the extent there are new resurgences of COVID-19 cases in the regions where we operate or there is an outbreak of positive COVID-19 cases in any of our manufacturing facilities. For example, during the three months ended September 30, 2021 our manufacturing facility in Yangzhou, China was shut down for approximately three weeks due to a small outbreak of positive COVID-19 cases in Yangzhou City. In addition, our global supply chain has been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic during 2021 and may continue to be adversely affected if the COVID-19 pandemic persists.

 

During 2021, there have been both significant price increases and supply constraints with respect to resin and carbon fiber, which are key raw materials that we use to manufacture our products, as well as increases in logistics costs to obtain raw materials. We expect that the price of resin and carbon fiber will remain at elevated levels for the remainder of 2021. Approximately 55% of the resin and resin systems we use are purchased under contracts either controlled or borne by two of our customers and therefore these customers receive/bear 100% of any decrease or increase in resin prices. With respect to our other customer supply agreements, our customers typically receive/bear 70% of any raw material price decreases or increases. If the supply of resin feedstocks and carbon fiber continue to be constrained for an extended period of time, such shortages could impact our ability to meet our customers’ forecasted demand for our products for the remainder of 2021 and have a further material adverse impact on our results of operations for the remainder of 2021.

We maintain our U.S. cash in bank deposit and money market accounts that, at times, exceed U.S. federally insured limits. U.S. bank accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in an amount up to $250,000 during 2021 and 2020. U.S. money market accounts are not guaranteed by the FDIC. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $70.5 million and $68.9 million, respectively, of cash in bank deposit and money market accounts in U.S. banks, which was in excess of FDIC limits. We have not experienced losses in any such accounts.

We also maintain cash in bank deposit accounts outside the U.S. with no insurance. At September 30, 2021, this included $20.7 million in China, $17.9 million in Turkey, $7.3 million in India, $1.9 million in Mexico and $0.7 million in other countries. As of December 31, 2020, this included $47.4 million in China, $6.0 million in Turkey, $5.0 million in India, $2.1 million in Mexico and $0.5 million in other countries. We have not experienced losses in these accounts. In addition, at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had short-term deposits in interest bearing accounts in China of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, which are reported as restricted cash in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Certain of our debt agreements are either tied to LIBOR or the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR) and certain of them have associated interest rate hedges. Due to the relatively low LIBOR and EURIBOR rates in effect as of September 30, 2021, a 10% change in the LIBOR or EURIBOR rate would not have had a material impact on our future earnings, fair values or cash flows.

As of September 30, 2021, we were not in compliance with our Total Net Leverage Ratio financial covenant (as defined in our Credit Agreement) and as a result the lender would have the right to request immediate payment of the senior revolving loan. Our liquidity and capital resources were adversely affected by certain events that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2021. We experienced significant production delays that occurred at the Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facility that we took over from Nordex in July 2021, as well as significant production delays in one of our Juarez, Mexico manufacturing facilities in connection with the ongoing transition to an innovative new blade for one of our customers. Although we expect that production will be stabilized in both of these manufacturing facilities by the end of the year, we expect that these transitions will continue to have an adverse impact on our liquidity for the remainder of the year. We also expect decreased demand for our wind blades from our customers during the remainder of 2021 and 2022. We believe this decrease in demand is due to the continued global renewable energy regulatory and policy uncertainty and raw material cost increases and constraints. We believe this decreased demand will also adversely impact our profitability and liquidity for the remainder of 2021 and 2022. Absent any other action or failure to close on item (i) discussed below, we will require additional liquidity to continue operations over the next 12 months.

 

In response to these conditions, we entered into (i) a $350 million Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and (ii) executed a limited 30-day credit agreement waiver through December 8, 2021. Per the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase

(Unaudited)

 

Agreement, a portion of the funds raised through the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement will be used to repay in full amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement. We also may elect at our option to require the purchaser to purchase an additional $50.0 million of Series A Preferred Stock upon the same terms and conditions as the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock during the two-year period following the closing date. Accordingly, we have reclassified the balance outstanding under our senior revolving loan as a current liability as of September 30, 2021. We believe our plans are probable of occurring and sufficient to support ongoing operations for the foreseeable future. See Note 15, Subsequent Events, for a further discussion of the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and the limited waiver.

Note 6. Share-Based Compensation Plans

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we issued to certain employees and non-employee directors an aggregate of 168,993 timed-based restricted stock units (RSUs), 58,396 performance-based restricted stock units (PSUs) that vest upon achievement of a cumulative, three-year Adjusted EBITDA target measured from January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2023, and 79,784 PSUs that vest upon achievement of certain stock price hurdles for the period of the grant date through December 31, 2023. All of the time-based RSUs vest on the third anniversary date of the grant date. Each of the time-based and performance-based awards are subject to the recipient’s continued service with us, the terms and conditions of our stock option and incentive plan and the applicable award agreement.

Note 7. Leases

We have operating and finance leases for our manufacturing facilities, warehouses, offices, automobiles and certain of our machinery and equipment. Our leases have remaining lease terms of between one and 15 years, some of which may include options to extend the leases up to five years.

Note 8. Financial Instruments

Interest Rate Swap

We use interest rate swap contracts to mitigate our exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with our U.S. senior revolving credit agreement (the Credit Agreement). We do not use such swap contracts for speculative or trading purposes.

As of September 30, 2021, no interest rate swaps originally designated for hedge accounting were de-designated or terminated. No ineffectiveness on our interest rate swaps was recognized as of September 30, 2021, and none is anticipated over the remaining term of the agreement.

Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts

We use foreign exchange forward contracts to mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates between the functional currencies of our subsidiaries and the other currencies in which they transact. We do not use such forward contracts for speculative or trading purposes.

Mexican Peso

All of our remaining outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts (excluding those with call options) expired during the three months ended March 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2020, the notional values associated with our foreign exchange forward contracts qualifying as cash flow hedges were approximately 0.3 billion Mexican Pesos (approximately $14.0 million).

With regards to our foreign exchange call option contracts, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, $0.8 million and $2.2 million, respectively, of premium amortization was recorded through cost of sales within our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The net income (loss) recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss in our condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity for our foreign exchange call option contracts is expected to be recognized in cost of sales in our condensed consolidated statements of operations during the next six months.

Note 9. Income Taxes

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, our income tax provision increased to $8.2 million as compared to a benefit of $32.3 million in the comparative prior year period, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, our income tax provision increased to $30.0 million as compared to a provision of $1.9 million in the comparative prior year period. These income tax increases were primarily due to the change in the mix of earnings of foreign jurisdictions and U.S. tax on foreign earnings in the current year periods. In addition, the increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020 was due to the recording of a full U.S. valuation allowance and an increase in our uncertain tax positions in the current year period.

No changes in tax law occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, which had a material impact on our income tax provision. We do not record a deferred tax liability related to unremitted foreign earnings as we maintain our assertion to indefinitely reinvest our unremitted foreign earnings.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims, and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, some of which may not be covered by insurance. Upon resolution of any pending legal matters, we may incur charges in excess of presently established reserves. Our management does not believe that any such charges would, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In January 2021, we received a complaint that was filed by the administrator for the Senvion GmbH (Senvion) insolvency estate in German insolvency court. The complaint asserts voidance against us in the aggregate amount of $13.3 million. The alleged voidance claims relate to payments that Senvion made to us for wind blades that we produced prior to Senvion filing for insolvency protection. We filed a response to these alleged voidance claims in August 2021 and we believe we have meritorious defenses to the alleged voidance claims. Due to the early stage of this claim, we have determined that the ultimate outcome cannot be estimated at this time.

Note 15. Subsequent Events

 

Credit Agreement Limited Waiver

 

On November 8, 2021 (the Waiver Effective Date), we executed a limited waiver in connection with our Credit Agreement, dated as of April 6, 2018 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time), by and among ourselves, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the Administrative Agent), and the lenders from time to time party thereto, with respect to our failure to comply with the Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) financial covenant as of September 30, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the limited waiver, the lenders have agreed to temporarily waive our compliance with this financial covenant from the Waiver Effective Date through December 8, 2021 (the Waiver Period). We also must maintain domestic U.S. cash of at least $20.0 million and global available liquidity (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of at least $50.0 million as of the close of business on each Friday commencing as of November 5, 2021 through the maturity date of the Credit Agreement. From and after the Waiver Effective Date, we may not allow any of our subsidiaries that are not loan parties to the Credit Agreement to incur any additional indebtedness and we may not make any investment in any of our subsidiaries that are not loan parties to the Credit Agreement in an aggregate amount greater than $5.0 million. We had $68.3 million of domestic U.S cash and $132.9 million of global available liquidity as of October 29, 2021.

 

Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement

 

On November 8, 2021, we entered into a Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with Oaktree Power Opportunities Fund V (Delaware) Holdings, L.P., OPPS TPIC Holdings, LLC, and Oaktree Phoenix Investment Fund L.P. (collectively, the Purchasers). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers an aggregate of 350,000 shares of our newly designated Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Series A Preferred Stock), for an aggregate purchase price of $350.0 million, with the Series A Preferred Stock having the powers, designations, preferences, and other rights set forth in the Certificate of Designations (as defined below). The issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock will occur on or after the date upon which customary closing conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement have been satisfied (the Closing Date), which we expect will occur prior to December 8, 2021. We also may elect at our option to require Oaktree to purchase an additional $50.0 million of Series A Preferred Stock upon the same terms and conditions as the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock during the two-year period following the Closing Date. We intend to use the net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock on the Closing Date to repay all outstanding indebtedness under our Credit Agreement, which is a condition to closing, and the remainder for general corporate purposes.

 

 

Warrant

 

On the Closing Date, we will also issue the Purchasers a warrant to purchase an aggregate of 4,666,667 shares of our Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the “Warrant”). The Warrant will have a five-year term and may be exercised at any time

23


TPI COMPOSITES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

during that period. The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant is subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events such as stock splits, reclassifications, combinations, dividends, distributions, mergers and other similar events.

 

Certificate of Designations

 

The Series A Preferred Stock will have the powers, designations, preferences, and other rights as set forth in a Certificate of Designations of the Series A Preferred Stock that will be filed by us with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on or before the Closing Date (the Certificate of Designations).

 

Voting and Consent Rights

 

The Series A Preferred Stock will not have any voting or rights to convert such preferred shares into shares of Common Stock (the Common Stock). We must obtain the prior written consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock for, among other things: (i) amending our organizational documents to the extent such amendment has an adverse effect on the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) effecting any change of control, liquidation event or merger or consolidation of us unless the entirety of the applicable Series A Redemption Price (as defined below) has been paid with respect to all issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, (iii) increasing or decreasing the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock; (iv) making certain material acquisitions or dispositions or entering into joint ventures or similar transactions, (v) incurring indebtedness except for indebtedness incurred under our existing loan facilities and agreements so long as the total amount of such indebtedness does not exceed $100.0 million as of the Closing Date through December 31, 2021 and $80.0 million thereafter, (vi) committing to any capital expenditures to construct or acquire new manufacturing facilities, subject to limited exceptions; and (vii) certain other specified actions.

 

Dividends

 

The dividend rate with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock is 11.0% per annum and will compound on a quarterly basis. The dividend rate will increase by 2.0% per annum: (i) on the fifth anniversary date of the Closing Date and on each anniversary thereafter, (ii) to the extent that we fail to pay any dividend that is required to be paid in cash, if we are in material breach of its covenants under the Purchase Agreement, the Certificate of Designations or Investor Rights Agreement, or if we experience a bankruptcy or insolvency event, or if certain other Events of Non-compliance (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) occur; (iv) in the event we fail to maintain a specified fixed charge dividend coverage ratio, and (v) in respect of any Series A Preferred Stock issued as curative equity in accordance with the Investor Rights Agreement (each, an “Incremental Dividend”); provided that in no event shall the dividend rate exceed 20.0%. On or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, we may pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock either in cash or “in kind”, through accrual to the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock or a combination thereof. Following the second anniversary of the Closing Date, dividends shall be payable only in cash. Incremental Dividends must be made in cash.

 

Ranking and Liquidation Preference

 

The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Common Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs (a Liquidation). Upon a Liquidation, each share of our Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to the applicable Series A Redemption Price. The initial liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be equal to $1,000 plus any dividends that have accrued as the date of determination (the Series A Liquidation Preference).

 

Redemption Rights and Series A Redemption Price

 

We will have the right to redeem all or any portion of the Series A Preferred Stock at any time by paying the applicable Series A Redemption Price; provided, however, that no optional redemption will be permitted that would result in less than 10% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock that are issued on the Closing Date remaining outstanding following such redemption unless all remaining shares of Series A Preferred Stock are redeemed.

24


TPI COMPOSITES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

 

Each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have the option to require us to redeem any portion of the Series A Preferred Stock at any time after the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date or an Event of Noncompliance occurs. We will be required to redeem all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock automatically upon the occurrence of a change of control, Liquidation or insolvency event.

 

The following table sets forth the procedure for calculating the Series A Redemption Price at which the Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed under the Certificate of Designations:

 

Timing of Redemption

Series A Redemption Price

Before the third anniversary of the Closing Date

Make-Whole Amount

From the First Optional Call Date until the first anniversary of the First Optional Call Date…………

102% of the Series A Liquidation Preference

From and after the first anniversary of the First Optional Call Date………

101% of the Series A Liquidation Preference

 

The “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any redemption of any share of the Series A Preferred Stock prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date (the First Optional Call Date) is defined in the Certificate of Designations as an amount equal to the present value (calculated as provided below) as of the redemption date of the sum of (A) the remaining dividends that would accrue on such shares being redeemed from the day immediately following the redemption date to the First Optional Call Date plus (B) 102% of the Liquidation Preference of such shares being redeemed on the redemption date assuming that, for purposes of calculating clauses (A) and (B), such shares were to remain outstanding through the First Optional Call Date, and with the present value of such sum being computed using an annual discount rate (applied quarterly) equal to the rate on U.S. Treasury notes with maturity closest to the applicable redemption date plus 50 basis points.

 

Minimum Cash Balance

 

We are also required to maintain a minimum cash balance of $50.0 million, which will be measured on a monthly basis, so long as the Series A Preferred Stock remains outstanding.

 

Investor Rights Agreement

 

As a condition to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, In connection with the Purchase Agreement, we and the Purchasers will enter into an Investor Rights Agreement (the Investor Rights Agreement) pursuant to which, among other things, we will grant the Purchasers certain customary registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants and certain other securities that may be issued to the Purchasers in respect of the Warrant. Pursuant to the Investors Rights Agreement, the Purchasers will be entitled to designate one representative (the Series A Director) to be appointed to our board of directors (the Board) or to appoint one non-voting observer to the Board, in each case so long as 33% of the Series A Preferred Stock issued on the Closing Date remains outstanding.. The Investor Rights Agreement further contains a number of other customary covenants and agreements, including certain standstill provisions, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal with respect to future debt financing transactions, and information rights.

 

The Investor Rights Agreements provides that the Purchasers will be restricted from transferring the Series A Preferred Stock to parties unaffiliated with the Purchasers without our prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by us.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Form 10-Q). Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, including information with respect to plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those described in or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q or in our previously filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, particularly those under “Risk Factors.”

OVERVIEW

Our Company

We are the only independent manufacturer of composite wind blades for the wind energy market with a global manufacturing footprint. We deliver high-quality, cost-effective composite solutions through long term relationships with leading original equipment manufacturers (OEM) in the wind and transportation markets. We also provide field service inspection and repair services to our OEM customers and wind farm owners and operators, and supply high strength, lightweight and durable composite products to the transportation market. We are headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona and operate factories throughout the U.S., China, Mexico, Turkey, and India. We operate additional engineering development centers in Denmark and Germany.

Our business operations are defined geographically into five geographic operating segments—(1) the United States (U.S.), (2) Asia, (3) Mexico, (4) Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and (5) India. See Note 14, Segment Reporting, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more details about our operating segments.

KEY TRENDS AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS

 

Our results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2021 were adversely affected by significant production delays that occurred at the Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facility that we took over from Nordex in July 2021, as well as significant production delays in one of our Juarez, Mexico manufacturing facilities in connection with the ongoing transition to an innovative new blade for one of our customers. We expect that production will be stabilized in both of these manufacturing facilities by the end of the year.

 

Our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 were adversely impacted by continued supply chain challenges, raw material shortages and increased logistics costs. During 2021, there have been both significant price increases and supply constraints with respect to resin and carbon fiber, which are key raw materials that we use to manufacture our products, as well as increases in logistics costs to obtain raw materials. The resin price increases and supply constraints are due to a multitude of factors, including the extreme cold weather in Texas in February 2021, fires at resin manufacturing facilities in China and unplanned maintenance outages at resin manufacturing facilities in Europe. Carbon fiber prices have increased primarily due to the cost of raw material inputs as well as increased global demand for carbon fiber across multiple industries. These raw material price and logistics cost increases adversely affected our results of operations by approximately $20 million and $24 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. We expect that the price of resin and carbon fiber will remain at elevated levels for the remainder of 2021 and into 2022. Approximately 55% of the resin and resin systems we use are purchased under contracts either controlled or borne by two of our customers and therefore these customers receive/bear 100% of any decrease or increase in resin prices. With respect to our other customer supply agreements, our customers typically receive/bear 70% of any raw material price decreases or increases. After taking into account our contractual share of any price increases for resin and carbon fiber, we estimate that the impact of these raw materials price increases, together with increased logistics costs, will adversely impact our results of operations by approximately $30 million for 2021. If the supply of resin feedstocks and carbon fiber continue to be constrained for an extended period of time, such shortages could impact our ability to meet our customers’ forecasted demand for our products for the remainder of 2021and into 2022 and have a further material adverse impact on our results of operations for the remainder of 2021 and 2022.

 

Our manufacturing facility in Yangzhou, China was shut down for approximately three weeks during the three months ended September 30, 2021 due to an outbreak of positive COVID-19 cases in Yangzhou City, which had an adverse impact on our results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2021. We expect to make up the lost volume from this shut down in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Despite this shutdown, the COVID-19 pandemic has not materially adversely affected our manufacturing operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Although all of our manufacturing facilities currently are operating at or near normal production levels, we may be required to reinstate temporary production suspensions or volume reductions at our manufacturing facilities to the extent there are new resurgences of COVID-19 cases in the regions where we operate or there is an outbreak of positive COVID-19 cases in any of our manufacturing facilities. However, our global supply chain has been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 and our global supply chain may continue to be adversely affected if the COVID-19 pandemic persists. In addition, certain of our customers directly control the purchase of certain key raw materials and components, including resin and carbon. In 2021, these customers have had challenges procuring adequate supplies of resin and carbon, which has had an adverse impact on our production volumes and results of operations.

 

We expect decreased demand for our wind blades from our customers during the remainder of 2021 and 2022. We believe this decrease in demand is due to the continued global renewable energy regulatory and policy uncertainty and raw material cost increases mentioned above. The result is an expected adverse impact to our Adjusted EBITDA in 2021 of approximately $33 million. We believe that general optimism around potential legislation in the U.S. to extend the Production Tax Credit (PTC) on a long-term basis is causing developers to delay project timelines in anticipation of being able to build projects at higher PTC levels once the expected extensions are in place.

 

We are forecasting to incur a total of approximately $45 million of restructuring and impairment charges associated with our global footprint alignment and consolidation in 2021 and 2022 relating to our China and North America operations, including our planned suspension of production at our Iowa manufacturing facility at the end of 2021. Approximately $30 million of the total is forecasted to be incurred in 2021, with the remainder in 2022. We are forecasting that approximately 15% of the restructuring charges will be non-cash.

 

We were not in compliance with our Total Net Leverage Ratio financial covenant as of September 30, 2021, primarily due to the Mexico production delays and increased raw material costs and constraints described above. On November 8, 2021 (the Waiver Effective Date), we and the lenders that are parties to the Credit Agreement executed a limited waiver pursuant to which the lenders agreed to temporarily waive our compliance with this financial covenant from the Waiver Effective Date through December 8, 2021. We also must maintain domestic U.S. cash of at least $20.0 million and global available liquidity of at least $50.0 million as of the close of business on each Friday commencing as of November 5, 2021 through the maturity date of the Credit Agreement. From and after the Waiver Effective Date, we may not allow any of our subsidiaries that are not loan parties to the Credit Agreement to incur any additional indebtedness and we may not make any investment in any of its subsidiaries that are not loan parties to the Credit Agreement in an aggregate amount greater than $5.0 million. We had $68.3 million of domestic U.S cash and $132.9 million of global available liquidity as of October 29, 2021.

 

Given these near-term liquidity challenges, on November 8, 2021, we entered into a Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with Oaktree Power Opportunities Fund V (Delaware) Holdings, L.P., OPPS TPIC Holdings, LLC, and Oaktree Phoenix Investment Fund L.P. (collectively, the Purchasers) pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers 350,000 shares of our newly designated Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $350.0 million. We expect the closing of this equity financing transaction to occur in the fourth quarter of 2021 and intend to use the net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock to repay all outstanding indebtedness under our Credit Agreement and the remainder for general corporate purposes. We also may elect at our option to require Oaktree to purchase an additional $50.0 million of Series A Preferred Stock upon the same terms and conditions as the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock during the two-year period following the Closing Date.

 

See Note 15, Subsequent Events, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more details on the limited waiver and the Purchase Agreement.

Net sales of wind blades during the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, were relatively flat. Net sales of wind blades during the three months ended September 30, 2021 were positively impacted by a higher average sales price due to the mix of wind blade models produced, an increase in the year over year number of wind blades still in the production process at the end of the period, and foreign currency fluctuations. Additionally, when comparing our net sales during the three months ended September 30, 2021, against the comparable prior year period, our current year net sales were negatively impacted by the removal of five contracted manufacturing lines that expired in China at the end of 2020 as well as a further reduction of two contracted manufacturing lines in China in 2021, reduced production volumes resulting from certain of our customers’ challenges in procuring adequate supplies of resin and carbon, significant production delays that occurred at one of our Juarez, Mexico manufacturing facilities related to an ongoing transition, and a temporary shutdown of our Yangzhou manufacturing facility due to a COVID-19 outbreak in Yangzhou City, which was partially offset by the adverse impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on our net sales in the prior year period. The reasons set forth above were the primary drivers of the 20% decrease in the number of wind blades produced year over year. The fluctuating U.S. dollar against the Euro in our Turkey operations and the Chinese Renminbi in our China operations had a favorable impact of 0.3% on consolidated net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the 2020 period.

 

The increase in net sales of wind blades during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, was primarily driven by a higher average sales price due to the mix of wind blade models produced and foreign currency fluctuations.

Additionally, when comparing our net sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, against the comparable prior year period, our current year net sales were negatively impacted by the removal of five contracted manufacturing lines that expired in China at the end of 2020 as well as a further reduction of two contracted manufacturing lines in China in 2021, reduced production volumes resulting from certain of our customers’ challenges in procuring adequate supplies of resin and carbon, and significant production delays that occurred at one of our Juarez, Mexico manufacturing facilities related to an ongoing transition, which was partially offset by the adverse impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on our net sales in the prior year period. The reasons set forth above, mostly offset by increased production at our India, Turkey and Mexico facilities were the primary drivers of the 3% decrease in the number of wind blades produced year over year. The fluctuating U.S. dollar against the Euro in our Turkey operations and the Chinese Renminbi in our China operations had a favorable impact of 1.2% on consolidated net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the 2020 period.

The decrease in the U.S. segment’s net sales of wind blades during the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, was primarily due to a 9% decrease in the number of wind blades produced, primarily related to volume reductions in anticipation of the suspension of production at our Newton, Iowa facility by the end of 2021. This net sales decrease was partially offset by a higher average sales price of wind blade models produced in the two comparative periods.

 

The increase in the U.S. segment’s net sales of wind blades during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, was primarily due to a 7% increase in the number of wind blades produced, primarily due to the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior year period, as well as a higher average sales price of wind blade models produced in the two comparative periods.

The decrease in the Asia segment’s net sales of wind blades during the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, was primarily due to a 71% decrease in the number of wind blades produced, primarily due to the removal of five contracted manufacturing lines that expired in China at the end of 2020, a further reduction of contracted manufacturing lines in 2021 in China, and a temporary shutdown of our Yangzhou manufacturing facility due to a COVID-19 outbreak in Yangzhou City. Additionally, for the three months ended September 30, 2021, there was a decrease in the period over period number of wind blades still in the production process at the end of the period. The net sales decrease during the three months ended September 30, 2021 was partially offset by an increase in the average sales price of wind blades due to a change in the mix of wind blades produced in the two comparative periods.

 

The decrease in the Asia segment’s net sales of wind blades during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, was primarily due to a 49% decrease in the number of wind blades produced, primarily due to the removal of five contracted manufacturing lines that expired in China at the end of 2020 and a further reduction of contracted manufacturing lines in 2021 in China, which was partially offset by the adverse impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on our net sales in the prior year period. The net sales decrease during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was partially offset by an increase in the average sales price of wind blades due to a change in the mix of wind blades produced in the two comparative periods. The fluctuating U.S. dollar against the Chinese Renminbi in our China operations had a favorable impact of 0.1% on consolidated net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the 2020 period.

The increase in the Mexico segment’s net sales of wind blades during the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, reflects an increase in the period over period number of wind blades still in the production process at the end of the period, as well as an increase in the average sales price of wind blades due to the mix of wind blades produced in the two comparative periods. These net sales increases were partially offset by a 17% net decrease in overall wind blade volume, primarily due to significant production delays that occurred at one of our Juarez, Mexico manufacturing facilities related to customer supplied specialized equipment and supply constraints affecting carbon in connection with the ongoing transition to an innovative new blade for one of our customers and production delays resulting from one of our customer's challenges in procuring adequate supplies of carbon at one of our Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facilities.

 

The increase in the Mexico segment’s net sales of wind blades during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, reflects a 5% net increase in overall wind blade volume, primarily due to the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior year period partially offset by the production delays described above, an increase in the period over period number of wind blades still in the production process at the end of the period, as well as an increase in the average sales price of wind blades due to the mix of wind blades produced in the two comparative periods.

The increase in the EMEA segment’s net sales of wind blades during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same periods in 2020, was driven by a 32% and 20% increase in wind blade production at our two Turkey plants, respectively, primarily due to transitions and the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior year, as well as an increase in the average sales price of wind blades produced in the two comparative periods and foreign currency fluctuations. These net sales increases were partially offset by reduced production volumes resulting from one of our customer's challenges in procuring adequate supplies of resin and carbon. The fluctuating U.S. dollar relative to the Euro had a favorable impact of 1.0% and 4.5% on net sales during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the 2020 periods.

Total cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased by approximately ten percentage points during the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, driven primarily by increases in direct material costs, direct labor costs and foreign currency fluctuations. The significant production delays that occurred at the Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facility, which we took over from Nordex in July 2021, during the three months ended September 30, 2021 were a major contributor to this increase. The fluctuating U.S. dollar against the Euro, Turkish Lira, Chinese Renminbi and Mexican Peso had an unfavorable impact of 0.5% on consolidated cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the 2020 period.

 

Total cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased by approximately two percentage points during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, driven primarily by an increase in direct material costs and foreign currency fluctuations, partially offset by a decrease in warranty costs. The fluctuating U.S. dollar against the Euro, Turkish Lira, Chinese Renminbi and Mexican Peso had an unfavorable impact of 1.2% on consolidated cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the 2020 period.

The decrease in the total other expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same periods in 2020, was primarily due to a decrease in the foreign currency loss primarily due to net Euro liability exposure against the Turkish Lira in the current year periods as compared to the same periods in 2020.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Our liquidity and capital resources were adversely affected by certain events that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2021. We experienced significant production delays that occurred at the Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facility that we took over from Nordex in July 2021, as well as significant production delays in one of our Juarez, Mexico manufacturing facilities in connection with the ongoing transition to an innovative new blade for one of our customers. Although we expect that production will be stabilized in both of these manufacturing facilities by the end of the year, we expect that these transitions will continue to have an adverse impact on our liquidity for the remainder of the year. We also expect decreased demand for our wind blades from our customers during the remainder of 2021 and 2022. We believe this decrease in demand is due to the continued global renewable energy regulatory and policy uncertainty and raw material cost increases and constraints. We believe this decreased demand will also adversely impact our profitability and liquidity for the remainder of 2021 and 2022.

 

We were not in compliance with our Total Net Leverage Ratio financial covenant as of September 30, 2021, primarily due to the Mexico production delays and increased raw material costs and constraints described above. On November 8, 2021 (the Waiver Effective Date), we and the lenders that are parties to the Credit Agreement executed a limited waiver pursuant to which the lenders

35


 

agreed to temporarily waive our compliance with this financial covenant from the Waiver Effective Date through December 8, 2021. We also must maintain domestic U.S. cash of at least $20.0 million and global available liquidity of at least $50.0 million as of the close of business on each Friday commencing as of November 5, 2021 through the maturity date of the Credit Agreement. From and after the Waiver Effective Date, we may not allow any of our subsidiaries that are not loan parties to the Credit Agreement to incur any additional indebtedness and we may not make any investment in any of its subsidiaries that are not loan parties to the Credit Agreement in an aggregate amount greater than $5.0 million. We had $68.3 million of domestic U.S cash and $132.9 million of global available liquidity as of October 29, 2021.

 

Given these near-term liquidity challenges, on November 8, 2021, we entered into the Purchase Agreement pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers 350,000 shares of our newly designated Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $350.0 million. We expect the closing of this equity financing transaction to occur in the fourth quarter of 2021 and intend to use the net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock to repay all outstanding indebtedness under our Credit Agreement and the remainder for general corporate purposes. We also may elect at our option to require Oaktree to purchase an additional $50.0 million of Series A Preferred Stock upon the same terms and conditions as the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock during the two-year period following the Closing Date.

 

See Note 15, Subsequent Events, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more details on the limited waiver and the Purchase Agreement.

Our primary needs for liquidity have been, and in the future will continue to be, capital expenditures, new facility startup costs, the impact of transitions, working capital, debt service costs, warranty costs and restructuring costs associated with the optimization of our global footprint. Our capital expenditures have been primarily related to machinery and equipment at our new facilities and expansion and improvements at our existing facilities. Historically, we have funded our working capital needs through cash flows from operations, the proceeds received from our credit facilities and from proceeds received from the issuance of stock. We had net proceeds under our financing arrangements of $43.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to net proceeds under our financing arrangements of $96.5 million in the comparable period of 2020. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $262.8 million and $217.9 million in outstanding indebtedness, excluding debt issuance costs, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, we had an aggregate of $103.6 million of remaining capacity and $66.2 million of remaining availability under our various credit facilities. Working capital requirements have increased as a result of our overall growth and the need to fund higher accounts receivable and inventory levels as our business volumes have increased, as well as increased raw material costs primarily related to resin, carbon fiber and logistics. Based upon current and anticipated levels of operations, we believe that cash on hand, available credit facilities, the anticipated net proceeds from the preferred equity financing described above, which we believe is probable, and cash flows from operations will be adequate to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements and to make required payments of principal and interest on our indebtedness over the next twelve months.

We anticipate that any new facilities and future facility expansions will be funded through cash flows from operations, the incurrence of other indebtedness and other potential sources of liquidity. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaling $119.0 million and $129.9 million, respectively. The September 30, 2021 balance includes $48.5 million of cash located outside of the United States, including $20.7 million in China, $17.9 million in Turkey, $7.3 million in India, $1.9 million in Mexico and $0.7 million in other countries.

Our ability to repatriate funds from China is subject to a number of restrictions imposed by the Chinese government. We repatriate funds through several technology license and corporate/administrative service agreements. We are compensated quarterly based on agreed upon royalty rates for such intellectual property licenses and quarterly fees for those services. Certain of our subsidiaries are limited in their ability to declare dividends without first meeting statutory restrictions of China, including retained earnings as determined under Chinese-statutory accounting requirements. Until 50% ($26.6 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020) of registered capital is contributed to a surplus reserve, our China operations can only pay dividends equal to 90% of after-tax profits (10% must be contributed to the surplus reserve). Once the surplus reserve fund requirement is met, our China operations can pay dividends equal to 100% of after-tax profit assuming other conditions are met. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the amount of the surplus reserve fund was $9.4 million and $7.0 million, respectively. In July 2021, China paid a dividend of approximately $19.5 million, net of withholding taxes, to our subsidiary in Switzerland.

Financing Facilities

Our total principal amount of debt outstanding as of September 30, 2021 was $262.8 million, including our Credit Agreement, secured and unsecured financing, working capital and term loan agreements and equipment finance leases. See Note 5, Long-Term Debt, Net of Current Maturities, and Note 15, Subsequent Events, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more details on our debt balances.

Operating Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $62.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, primarily as a result of lower operating results and unfavorable working capital usage.

Investing Cash Flows

Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $23.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, as a result of a decrease in capital expenditures.

We anticipate fiscal year 2021 capital expenditures of between $40 million to $45 million and we estimate that the cost that we will incur after September 30, 2021 to complete our current projects in process will be approximately $7.0 million. We have used, and will continue to use, cash flows from operations, the proceeds received from our credit facilities and the proceeds received from the issuance of stock for major projects currently being undertaken, which include new manufacturing facilities in Chennai, India and the continued investment in our existing Tukey, Mexico, China and U.S. facilities.

Financing Cash Flows

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $54.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, primarily as a result of decreased net borrowings on our revolving loans.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET TRANSACTIONS

We are not presently involved in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including transactions with unconsolidated special-purpose or other entities that would materially affect our financial position, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources, other than our accounts receivable assignment agreements described below. Furthermore, we do not have any relationships with special-purpose or other entities that provide off-balance sheet financing; liquidity, market risk or credit risk support; or engage in leasing or other services that may expose us to liability or risks of loss that are not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Our segments enter into accounts receivable assignment agreements with various financial institutions. Under these agreements, the financial institution buys, on a non-recourse basis, the accounts receivable amounts related to our segment’s customers at an agreed-upon discount rate.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, $346.3 million and $343.0 million, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, $1,001.2 million and $802.9 million, respectively, of receivables were sold under the accounts receivable assignment agreements described above.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

See Note 1, Basis of Presentation, under the heading “Accounting Pronouncements” to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, there have been no material changes to the contractual obligations reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, other than in the ordinary course of business.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. These market risks are principally limited to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices.

Foreign Currency Risk. We conduct international operations in China, Mexico, Turkey and India. Our results of operations are subject to both currency transaction risk and currency translation risk. We incur currency transaction risk whenever we enter into either a purchase or sale transaction using a currency other than the local currency of the transacting entity. With respect to currency translation risk, our financial condition and results of operations are measured and recorded in the relevant domestic currency and then translated into U.S. dollars for inclusion in our condensed consolidated financial statements. In recent years, exchange rates between these foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar have fluctuated significantly and may do so in the future. A hypothetical change of 10% in the exchange rates for the countries above would have resulted in a change to income from operations of approximately $21.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Commodity Price Risk. We are subject to commodity price risk under agreements for the supply of our raw materials. We have not hedged our commodity price exposure. We generally lock in pricing for most of our key raw materials for 12 months which protects us from price increases within that period, which we believe helps to mitigate the impact of raw material price increases. As many of our raw material supply agreements have meet or release clauses, if raw materials prices decrease, we are able to benefit from the reductions in price.

Resin and resin systems are the primary commodities for which we do not have fixed pricing. Approximately 55% of the resin and resin systems we use are purchased under contracts either controlled or borne by two of our customers and therefore they receive/bear 100% of any decrease or increase in resin costs further limiting our exposure to price fluctuations.

Prior to taking into account any contractual obligations of our customers to share with us the cost savings or increases resulting from a change in the current forecasted price of resin and resin systems, we believe that a 10% change in the current forecasted price of resin and resin systems for the customers in which we are exposed to fluctuating prices would have had an impact to income from

38


 

operations of approximately $12.4 million for the full year 2021. With respect to our other customer supply agreements, our customers typically receive/bear 70% of the cost savings or increases resulting from a change in the price of resin and resin systems.

Interest Rate Risk. As of September 30, 2021, our Credit Agreement includes interest on the unhedged principal amount of $106.2 million which is tied to the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), our India segment has two credit agreements outstanding which are tied to LIBOR, and our EMEA segment has one general credit agreement outstanding which is tied to the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR). For a discussion of the interest rate swap arrangement we entered into related to our Credit Agreement, see Note 13, Financial Instruments, to the notes to the consolidated financial statements within our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The India credit agreements had secured and unsecured working capital financing of $10.3 million and unsecured term loan financing of $8.1 million outstanding as of September 30, 2021. The two EMEA credit agreements had unsecured financing of $5.7 million and financing of capital expenditures of $1.0 million outstanding as of September 30, 2021. Our Credit Agreement, the two India credit agreements, and the one EMEA general credit agreement are the only variable rate debt agreements that we had outstanding as of September 30, 2021 as all remaining secured and unsecured financing and finance lease obligations are fixed rate instruments and are not subject to fluctuations in interest rates. Due to the relatively low LIBOR and EURIBOR rates in effect as of September 30, 2021, a 10% change in the LIBOR or EURIBOR rate would not have had a material impact on our future earnings, fair values or cash flows.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the design and operating effectiveness as of September 30, 2021 of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

39


 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

See Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies, under the heading “Legal Proceedings” to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of legal proceedings and other related matters.

 

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

Except as noted below, there have been no material changes to the Risk Factors (Part I, Item 1A) in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and/or future results.

 

The pending Series A Preferred Stock financing may not be completed, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and/or financial condition or the price of our shares of Common Stock.

 

On November 8, 2021, we entered into a Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with Oaktree Power Opportunities Fund V (Delaware) Holdings, L.P., OPPS TPIC Holdings, LLC, and Oaktree Phoenix Investment Fund L.P. (collectively, the Purchasers), pursuant to which we have agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers an aggregate of 350,000 shares of our newly designated Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Series A Preferred Stock), for an aggregate purchase price of $350.0 million. On the closing date for the sale of the Series A Preferred Stock, we will also issue the Purchasers a warrant to purchase an aggregate of 4,666,667 shares of our Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021, subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. We cannot assure that all closing conditions will be satisfied or waived. The Purchase Agreement will expire if the closing has not occurred by the 60th day following the date of the Purchase Agreement. If the transaction is not completed, we will be subject to a number of risks, including: we must pay costs related to the transaction, including legal and financial advisory fees, whether the transaction is completed or not; the trading price of our shares of Common Stock may decline if the transaction is not completed, to the extent that the market price reflects a market assumption that the transaction will be completed; we may be required to seek alternative sources of liquidity, as to the availability or terms of which we cannot provide assurance, and we could be subject to litigation related to the failure to complete the transaction or other factors, all of which may adversely affect our business, results of operations and/or financial results and the price of our shares of Common Stock.

Our business, operations and financial condition during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were not materially adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic however we cannot estimate the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and our business may be adversely affected in the future if the COVID-19 pandemic persists.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic did not materially adversely affect our manufacturing operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. However, our manufacturing facility in Yangzhou, China was shut down for approximately three weeks during the three months ended September 30, 2021 due to an outbreak of positive COVID-19 cases in Yangzhou City, which had an adverse impact on our results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Although all of our manufacturing facilities currently are operating at or near normal production levels, we may be required to reinstate temporary production suspensions or volume reductions at our manufacturing facilities to the extent there are new resurgences of COVID-19 cases in the regions where we operate or there is an outbreak of positive COVID-19 cases in any of our manufacturing facilities. However, our global supply chain has been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 and our global supply chain may continue to be adversely affected if the COVID-19 pandemic persists.
