John L. Garrison  |  Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

Last year was the second year of our initiative to 
become a high performance enterprise, and I am 
encouraged by the improvement embraced by our 
team members and the progress we have made. 
Our goal is to establish a corporate culture based on 
process discipline, transparency and accountability 
that will deliver greater operating performance and 
consistency for our team members, customers and 
shareholders. This high performance culture will 
enable us to achieve our Purpose: To help improve 
the lives of people around the world and our Mission: 
To provide solutions to our Machinery and Industrial 
Product customers that yield superior productivity 
and return on investment.

Before reviewing our 2018 results and accomplish-
ments, I want to emphasize our intense focus on 
team member safety. We are developing a Zero 
Harm safety culture that puts safety first in every 
aspect of our business. We continued to make prog-
ress on our safety journey in 2018, reducing our lost 
time rate 27% and our total recordable rate 13%.  
These are good results by our team, especially in a 
year that we on-boarded thousands of new team 
members across the Company. World class safety 
performance is essential to becoming a high perfor-
mance enterprise. Companies that exemplify a 
safety culture—and the process standardization it 
requires—tend to execute well in all other aspects  
of their business.

Last year, Terex benefited from growing global  
construction and industrial markets, which improved 
equipment utilization around the world and stimu-
lated fleet expansion as well as replacement. In 
2018, versus 2017, consolidated revenue increased 
approximately 18%, operating margin increased 
from 4.1% to 5.7%, and on an adjusted basis from 
5.1% to 6.7%, and EPS more than doubled from 
$0.63 to $1.45 and on an adjusted basis from $1.35 
to $2.71.

Terex Aerial Work Platforms
Terex AWP had a strong 2018: increasing production 
to meet higher customer demand; achieving 24% 
revenue growth; and improving operating margins 
from 8.2% to 10.2%. During 2018, our AWP team  
introduced five new products, including fuel efficient 
hybrid models and an expansion of our Xtra Capacity 
boom line. Through its Genie brand, Terex AWP 
continues to be an innovation leader in the  
aerials industry.

Terex Cranes
Terex Cranes had a challenging 2018 due largely to 
supply chain disruption as the global crane industry 
began to recover from a multi-year decline. This  
disruption primarily impacted our German mobile 
crane operation, and led to segment losses in 
each quarter of 2018. The segment was profitable

in the fourth quarter on an adjusted basis as we 
improved parts availability and increased production 
to meet recovering demand. 

Terex Cranes continues to invest in product innova-
tion, introducing new products across its portfolio, 
including the 40 ton class pick and carry crane in 
Australia and the Optima utility aerial devices for the 
electrical distribution market.

Terex Materials Processing
Terex Materials Processing (MP) had another out-
standing year in 2018 with revenue growth of 17.2% 
and operating margin improvement from 11.7% in 
2017 to 13.3% in 2018. MP’s core crushing and 
screening business grew strongly in all regions as 
2015
global construction spending accelerated, and our 
material handling business also grew as scrap steel 
demand improved. New product development con-
tinued to differentiate our MP business in 2018 with 
new crushing and screening, environmental and 
material handling products. We made growth capital 
investments in this business in 2018 and will con-
tinue to invest in 2019 supporting its positive 
momentum globally. Prospects for MP overall 
remain bright as a result of healthy global non- 
residential construction, infrastructure investment 
and changing global environmental regulations.

Focus, Simplify, and Execute to Win
6
Our Focus, Simplify, and Execute to Win trans- 
formation strategy was introduced to analysts and  
5
investors at our December 2016 investor day. Our 
4.36
strategy is to 1) own specialized machinery busi-
nesses with superior fundamentals, 2) simplify the 
4
many factories and administrative systems we  
accumulated through a history of acquisitions, and 
3
3) create transparency, accountability and process 
discipline in how we operate our businesses. During 
2
our investor day, we presented 2020 objectives of 
greater than 10% operating profit, 20% return on 
1
invested capital, and free cash flow generation 
greater than net income. We are on track to achieve 
these 2020 objectives.

Focus
The Focus element of our strategy is to invest in 
businesses with strong fundamentals allowing them 
to out-earn their cost of capital through economic 
cycles. These fundamentals include owning busi-
nesses with leading brands and market positions, 
customer-centric cultures, and innovative engineer-
ing capabilities. Each of our businesses must meet 
the cost of capital threshold of the Focus element of 
our strategy, and during our portfolio reviews if a 
business consistently falls below the threshold, with 
no clear path to out-earn our cost of capital in the 
short to medium term, we will examine strategic 
alternatives for that business.  

2018 Annual Report  //  Page 3

 
For Terex, safety is an 
absolute way of life—whether you 
work for us, supply us, use our equipment, 
or receive our services.

All team members are committed 
to our journey to “Zero Harm” 
and are responsible to each other for 
continous improvement in safety.

In the first quarter of 2019 we announced the sale  
of our Demag Mobile Cranes (DMC) business to a 
strategic buyer. DMC, based in Germany, has been 
an important part of Terex for many years, with dedi-
cated team members supporting a business known 
for design innovation and high performance prod-
ucts. However, we determined that as a stand-alone 
business DMC was unlikely, within an acceptable 
period, to out-earn its cost of capital over the cycle.  
We also announced the rationalization of our North 
American mobile crane product line, exiting rough 
terrain crane production in Oklahoma City and  
continuing to serve the global market from our Italian 
rough terrain cranes factory, and exiting certain 
lower volume North American mobile crane products. 
This re-shaping of our mobile cranes portfolio is 
consistent with our strategy to Focus on businesses 
that provide the greatest return to our shareholders. 

Simplify
We made significant strides in simplification during 
2018. We consolidated and improved our financial 
reporting systems implementing a new common 
financial platform. Additionally, we invested in and 
upgraded our primary ERP system. 

Execute to Win
The Execute to Win element of our strategy is to 
establish standard work processes, transparency 
and accountability in three priority areas of  
Commercial Excellence, Lifecycle Solutions and 
Strategic Sourcing.

Our Commercial Excellence priority involves creating 
process rigor in the customer-facing elements of our 
business including customer relationship manage-
ment, pipeline management, sales organization 
management, and pricing analytics and transparency.  
During 2018, we largely completed the global intro-
duction of our Commercial Excellence system. The 
system allows us to better focus on the most profit-
able opportunities, deploy our sales organization 
more efficiently, and better integrate the sales  
outlook with our factories to minimize production  
and working capital volatility.

In addition to these improvements, during the second 
half of the year we introduced the Terex Proven 
Sales Process (TPSP), which provides additional 
training and tools to our global sales professionals, 
and completed training of over 60% of those tar-
geted team members.  

Our Lifecycle Solutions transformation gained signif-
icant momentum during 2018 as we established a 
small organization of highly experienced profession-
als to drive Parts & Service improvement across the 
Company. We consolidated European logistics to 
Roosendaal, Netherlands, and are planning addi-
tional parts sub-warehouses to improve both cost 
and service. We are reorganizing how we distribute 
parts to improve both cost and service, and we are 
establishing more robust parts pricing analytics. We 
also established a Company-wide digital offerings 
initiative, including user data capture and analysis

that will be available to enhance our customers’ 
returns on capital invested in our equipment. This 
will become an increasing focus for Terex in  
the future.

Our Strategic Sourcing team made significant prog-
ress during 2018, beginning the implementation of 
new supply agreements with our supply chain. We 
anticipate meaningful net savings as we accelerate 
supplier transitions in 2019.  

Disciplined Capital Allocation
During our December 2016 investor day, we also 
introduced our disciplined capital allocation strategy 
as an important element in driving ROIC to 20%  
by 2020. 

Our first capital allocation step is to ensure our net 
debt/EBITDA is at an appropriate level, which we 
targeted at around 2.5x. We ended 2018 at approxi-
mately 2.1x, so 2018 capital was not allocated to 
debt reduction. The second element is to fund 
organic growth in our businesses primarily through 
working capital and capital expenditures. In 2018, 
we identified additional high return capital expendi-
tures, which almost doubled from $44 million in 2017 
to $83 million in 2018, excluding the acquisition of 
Northern Ireland properties that were under lease. 
The third element is investment in restructuring and 
transformation investments, primarily Strategic 
Sourcing, which will provide returns starting in 2019. 

The final capital allocation step is to return capital to 
shareholders through dividends and share repur-
chases. We increased our annual dividend by 25% 
from $0.32 to $0.40, and repurchased approxi-
mately 11.4 million shares primarily utilizing cash 
from prior asset sales. Since December 2016, we 
have repurchased 37.1 million shares (around 35% 
of our outstanding shares). We believe that our 
shareholders are best served by a return of excess 
cash from asset sales and operations during our 
period of operating and portfolio transformation.

Terex made significant progress last year, the  
second year of our journey to becoming a high  
performance enterprise. I would like to thank all 
Terex team members for embracing our improve-
ment strategy while simultaneously following the 
Terex Way Values. I would also like to thank our 
shareholders for their continued investment and 
interest in our Company.

Sincerely, 

John L. Garrison
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer

ITEM 1. 

BUSINESS

GENERAL

Our Company was incorporated in Delaware in October 1986 as Terex U.S.A., Inc.  Since that time, we have changed significantly, 
and much of this change has been historically accomplished through acquisitions and managing our portfolio of companies by 
divestiture  of  non-core  businesses  and  products.   Today, Terex  is  a  global  manufacturer  of  aerial  work  platforms,  cranes  and 
materials processing machinery.  We design, build and support products used in construction, maintenance, manufacturing, energy, 
minerals and materials management applications.  Our products are manufactured in North and South America, Europe, Australia 
and Asia and sold worldwide.  We engage with customers through all stages of the product life cycle, from initial specification 
and financing to parts and service support.  We continue to focus on becoming an industry leading operating company.

We manage and report our business in the following segments: (i) Aerial Work Platforms (“AWP”); (ii) Cranes; and (iii) Material 
Processing (“MP”).

Further  information  about  our  industry  and  reportable  segments  appears  in  Part  II,  Item  7.  –  “Management’s  Discussion  and 
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Note B – “Business Segment Information” in the Notes to the 
Consolidated Financial Statements.

OTHER

We may assist customers in their rental, leasing and acquisition of our products through Terex Financial Services (“TFS”).  TFS 
uses  its  equipment  financing  experience  to  provide  financing  solutions  to  our  customers  who  purchase  our  equipment.   TFS 
continually evaluates the level to which it provides direct customer financing versus utilizing third party funding to meet its business 
objectives.

In the United States and on a limited basis in China, TFS originates and services financing transactions directly with end-user 
customers, distributors and rental companies.  Most of the transactions are fixed and floating rate loans; however, TFS also provides 
sales-type leases, operating leases and rentals.  In the normal course of business, loans and leases are sold to third party financial 
institutions.  Globally, TFS facilitates financing transactions directly between our customers and third party financial institutions.  
In addition, wholesale financing may be arranged between dealers and distributors who sell our equipment and financial institutions 
with which TFS has established relationships.

TFS continually monitors used equipment values of Terex equipment in the secondary market sales channels for all of our equipment 
categories. This provides a basis to project future values of equipment for the underwriting of leases or loans.  These secondary 
market sales channels are also used for re-marketing any equipment which is returned at end of lease, or is repossessed in case of 
a customer default.  When equipment is received, TFS uses the resale channel which maximizes proceeds and/or mitigates risk 
for Terex and our funding partners.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Material Handling and Port Solutions (“MHPS”)

On January 4, 2017, we completed the disposition of our MHPS business (the “Disposition”) to Konecranes Plc (“Konecranes”).  
The MHPS business sold constituted the entirety of one of our previous reportable segments and comprised two of our six previous 
reporting units, represented a significant portion of our revenues and assets, and is therefore accounted for as a discontinued 
operation for all periods presented.  The Disposition represented a significant strategic shift in our business away from universal, 
process, mobile harbor and ship-to-shore cranes that had a major effect on our operating results. 

See Note D – “Discontinued Operations and Other Divestitures” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further 
information regarding the Disposition and our discontinued operations.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 22, 2019, we entered into an Asset and Stock Purchase Agreement (the “ASPA”) with Tadano Ltd. (“Tadano”).  
Pursuant to the ASPA, we are selling our Demag® mobile cranes business to Tadano for an enterprise value of $215 million (the 
“Transaction”).  The consideration is being paid in cash and the cash received will be net of indebtedness.  The purchase price is 
subject to post-closing adjustments based upon the level of net working capital and cash and debt in the Demag® mobile cranes 
business at the closing date.  The products to be divested are our Demag® all terrain cranes and large lattice boom crawler cranes.  
The Transaction, which is subject to governmental regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, is targeted to 
close in mid-2019.  In addition to selling our Demag® mobile cranes business, we will exit the North American mobile crane 
product lines manufactured in our Oklahoma City facility.

As a result, we realigned certain operations formerly part of our Cranes segment.  For financial reporting periods beginning on or 
after January 1, 2019, our utilities business will be consolidated within our AWP segment, our pick and carry cranes business will 
be consolidated within our MP segment and our rough terrain and tower cranes businesses will be consolidated within Corporate.  
Prior period reportable segment information will be adjusted in succeeding periods to reflect the realignment of our operations.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

Terex is a specialized manufacturer of capital equipment and related services.  Our goal is to design, manufacture and market 
equipment and services that provide superior life-cycle return on invested capital to our customers (“Customer ROIC”).  Customer 
ROIC is a key focus of our organization and is central to our ability to generate returns for investors.

6

We operate our business based on our value system, “The Terex Way.”  The Terex Way values shape the culture of our Company 
and reflect our collective commitment to what it means to be a part of Terex.  The Terex Way is based on six key values:

• 

Integrity: Integrity reflects honesty, ethics, transparency and accountability. We are committed to maintaining high ethical 
standards in all of our business dealings and we never sacrifice our integrity for profit.

•  Respect: Respect incorporates concern for safety, health, teamwork, diversity, inclusion and performance. We treat all 

• 

• 

our team members, customers and suppliers with respect and dignity.
Improvement:  Improvement  encompasses  quality,  problem-solving  systems,  a  continuous  improvement  culture  and 
collaboration. We continuously search for new and better ways of doing things, focusing on continuous improvement and 
the elimination of waste.
Servant Leadership: Servant leadership requires service to others, humility, authenticity and leading by example. We work 
to serve the needs of our customers, investors and team members.

•  Courage: Courage entails willingness to take risks, responsibility, action and empowerment. We have the courage to make 

a difference even when it is difficult.

•  Citizenship: Citizenship means social responsibility and environmental stewardship. We comply with all laws, respect 

all people’s values and cultures, and are good global, national and local citizens.

During 2016, Terex began implementing a strategic transformation that has three principal elements:

1.  Focus the portfolio on businesses best positioned to generate returns above the cost of capital through the cycle.
2.  Simplify company structure, systems and footprint to improve efficiency and enhance global competitiveness.
3.  Execute to Win, driving process discipline, execution rigor, and accountability in core processes.

The “Focus” element of this strategy concentrated our business portfolio in product categories where we are among the market 
leaders.  Where we were not among the market leaders our strategy has been to either divest those product lines or pursue a business 
strategy which we believe will enable us to become a market leader.  Work related to this strategic theme involved review of all 
businesses in the portfolio from the perspectives of market attractiveness and competitive position.  Several portfolio actions were 
taken as a result, including the sale of our former MHPS segment and sale of certain of our former Construction segment product 
lines.  Though the original objectives have been met, the principles on which the focus element was based will continue to be 
applied to our Company’s business portfolio.  Businesses that do not lead in their markets or do not achieve reasonable return 
expectations will be reviewed.  Meanwhile, businesses that do lead and do deliver attractive returns will be candidates for additional 
investment.

The “Simplify” element of the Terex strategy is centered on complexity reduction and cost management.  Historically, Terex has 
grown through acquisitions and our businesses were generally operated autonomously.  This resulted in a complex legal entity 
structure, multiple financial systems, and high organizational complexity.  As part of our transformational strategy, we are addressing 
these issues and are implementing strategic initiatives to simplify our structure, footprint and processes.  We are working to flatten 
and streamline the organization.  We have undertaken finance initiatives to simplify the way that we measure and manage the 
Company day-to-day.  We also simplified the Company’s manufacturing footprint by reducing the number of production facilities, 
sharing facilities across businesses, and driving aggressive productivity improvement within the facilities we operate.  We operate 
capital goods businesses that must be efficiently managed in order to remain competitive and the definition of what it means to 
be efficient is constantly changing.  Continued refinement of business processes and the effective deployment to modern technology 
are both important to the ongoing simplification of our Company.

The third major theme of the Terex strategy is Execute to Win, which is a focus on three key management processes:  Talent 
development, strategy development and deployment, and operational excellence.  Execute to Win represents a major change in 
the philosophy of our Company in terms of where and how work is done.  Our goal is to become operationally excellent, balancing 
desire for business autonomy with the need for overall efficiency and relying on process excellence as a critical enabler of both 
business and company performance.  We are implementing three specific near-term transformational priorities in our Execute to 
Win initiatives. 

1.  Lifecycle Solutions are comprehensive solutions that include our equipment and other offerings such as financing, spare 

parts, technical and repair services, operator training, and technology solutions that drive Customer ROIC.

2.  Commercial Excellence is about driving process discipline and execution in our commercial operations, such as sales, 

pricing, marketing, and sales support.

3.  Strategic Sourcing will involve implementing a standard, Terex-wide strategic sourcing process that will help us leverage 

our spending, thereby achieving lower costs from suppliers.

7

Each of these activities is being managed as a company-wide priority, with leadership from the center and support from within 
Terex businesses.  Implementation involves a wide-ranging set of actions that are intended to deliver step-change performance 
improvement.  These actions appropriately balance the unique needs of specific businesses with overall potential for efficiency 
and for leverage on investments.  Our long-term financial plan includes major contributions in these three areas as well as improved 
processes that will become foundational drivers for differentiating Terex in the years ahead.

Capital allocation is an important part of our overall strategy.  We view capital allocation priorities (in order) as follows:

1.  Maintain an optimal capital structure (~2.5 x average net debt to EBITDA over the cycle)
2.  Organic growth investments (product & service development, maintenance capex, geographic expansion)
3.  Restructuring investments (transformation initiatives, general & administrative cost reduction, footprint rationalization)
4.  Efficient return of capital to shareholders (dividends and share repurchases)

During 2018, we returned $455 million to shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases.

PRODUCTS

AERIAL WORK PLATFORMS

AERIAL WORK PLATFORMS.  Aerial work platform equipment position workers and materials easily and quickly to elevated 
work areas, enhancing safety and productivity at height.  These products have been developed as alternatives to scaffolding and 
ladders.  We offer a variety of aerial lifts that are categorized into six product families: portable material lifts; portable aerial work 
platforms; trailer-mounted articulating booms; self-propelled articulating and self-propelled telescopic booms; and scissor lifts.

Portable material lifts are used primarily indoors in the construction, industrial and theatrical markets.
• 
• 
Portable aerial work platforms are used primarily indoors in a variety of markets to perform overhead maintenance.
•  Trailer-mounted articulating booms are used both indoors and outdoors. They provide versatile reach, and they have the 

ability to be towed between job sites.
Self-propelled articulating booms are primarily used in construction and industrial applications, both indoors and outdoors. 
They feature lifting versatility with up, out and over position capabilities to access difficult to reach overhead areas.
Self-propelled telescopic booms are used outdoors in commercial and industrial construction, as well as highway and 
bridge maintenance projects.
Scissor lifts are used in indoor and outdoor applications in a variety of construction, industrial and commercial settings.

• 

• 

• 

TELEHANDLERS.  Telehandlers move and place materials on residential and commercial construction sites and are used in the 
energy and infrastructure industries.

LIGHT TOWERS.  Trailer-mounted light towers are used primarily to light work areas for construction, entertainment, emergency 
assistance and security during nighttime or low light applications.

8

CRANES

We  offer  a  wide  variety  of  cranes,  including  mobile  telescopic  cranes,  lattice  boom  crawler  cranes,  tower  cranes,  and  utility 
equipment.

MOBILE TELESCOPIC CRANES.  Mobile telescopic cranes are used primarily for industrial applications, in commercial and 
public works construction, and in maintenance applications to lift equipment or material.  We offer a complete line of mobile 
telescopic cranes, including rough terrain cranes, truck cranes, truck-mounted cranes (boom trucks), all terrain cranes and pick 
and carry cranes.

•  Rough  terrain  cranes  move  materials  and  equipment  on  rugged  or  uneven  terrain  and  are  often  located  on  a  single 
construction or work site for long periods. Rough terrain cranes cannot be driven on highways (other than in Italy) and 
accordingly must be transported by truck to the work site.

•  Truck cranes have two cabs and can travel rapidly from job site to job site at highway speeds. Truck cranes are often used 

for multiple local jobs, primarily in urban or suburban areas.

•  Truck-mounted  cranes  (boom  trucks).   We  manufacture  telescopic  boom  cranes  and  articulated  hydraulic  cranes  for 
mounting on a commercial truck chassis.  Truck-mounted cranes are used primarily in the construction and maintenance 
industries to lift equipment or materials to various heights.  Boom trucks are generally lighter and have less lifting capacity 
than truck cranes, and are used for many of the same applications when lower lifting capacities are sufficient.  An advantage 
of a boom truck is that the equipment or material to be lifted by the crane can be transported by the truck, which can 
travel at highway speeds.  Applications include delivery of building materials and the installation of commercial air 
conditioners and other roof-mounted equipment, and the erection of transmission towers and substation equipment in the 
electrical grids.

•  All-terrain cranes are a cross between rough terrain and truck cranes, and are designed to travel across both rough terrain 

• 

and highways.
Pick and carry cranes are designed for a wide variety of applications, including use at mine sites, large fabrication yards, 
building and construction sites and in machinery maintenance and installation. They combine high road speed with all-
terrain capability.

LATTICE BOOM CRAWLER CRANES.  Lattice boom crawler and lattice boom pedestal cranes are designed to lift material on 
rough terrain.  The boom is made of tubular steel sections, which, together with the base unit, are transported to and erected at a 
construction  site.    Applications  include  infrastructure  building,  wind  turbine  erection,  construction  of  nuclear  power  and 
petrochemical plants and heavy lifting within oil refineries and the construction industry.

TOWER CRANES.  Tower cranes are often used in urban areas where space is constrained and in long-term or very high building 
sites.  Tower cranes lift construction material and place the material at the point of use.  We produce the following types of tower 
cranes:

• 

Self-erecting tower cranes unfold from sections and can be trailer mounted; certain larger models have a telescopic tower 
and folding jib. These cranes can be assembled on site in a few hours. Applications include residential and small commercial 
construction.

•  Hammerhead tower cranes have a tower and a horizontal jib assembled from sections. The tower extends above the jib 
into an A-frame to which suspension cables supporting the jib are attached. These cranes are assembled on-site in one to 
three days depending on height, and can increase in height with the project.
Flat top tower cranes have a tower and a horizontal jib assembled from sections. There is no A-frame above the jib, which 
is self-supporting and consists of reinforced jib sections. These cranes are assembled on-site in one to two days, and can 
increase in height with the project.

• 

•  Luffing jib tower cranes have a tower and an angled jib assembled from sections. There is one A-frame above the jib to 
which suspension cables supporting the jib are attached. Unlike other tower cranes, there is no trolley to control linear 
movement of the load, which is accomplished by changing the jib angle. These cranes are assembled on-site in two to 
three days, and can increase in height with the project.

9

UTILITY EQUIPMENT.  Our utility products include digger derricks, auger drills and insulated aerial devices.  These products 
are used by electric utilities, tree care companies, telecommunications and cable companies, and the related construction industries, 
as well as by government organizations.

•  Digger derricks are insulated products used to dig holes, hoist and set utility poles, as well as lift transformers and other 
materials  at  job  sites  near  energized  power  lines. Auger  drills  are  used  to  dig  holes  for  utility  poles  or  construction 
foundations requiring larger diameter holes in difficult soil conditions.
Insulated aerial devices are used to elevate workers and material to work areas at the top of utility poles near energized 
transmission and distribution lines and for trimming trees near energized electrical lines, as well as for miscellaneous 
purposes such as sign maintenance.

SERVICES.  We offer a range of services for aerial work platform and utility equipment consisting of inspections, preventative 
maintenance, general repairs, reconditioning, refurbishment, modernization and spare parts, as well as consultancy and training 
services.  Our services are provided on our own products and on third-party products and related equipment.

MATERIALS PROCESSING

Materials processing equipment is used in processing aggregate materials for building applications and is also used in the quarrying, 
mining,  demolition,  recycling,  landscaping  and  biomass  production  industries.    Our  materials  processing  equipment  includes 
crushers, screens and feeders, washing systems as well as wood and biomass chippers.

We manufacture a range of jaw, impactor (both horizontal and vertical shaft) and cone crushers, as well as base crushers for 
integration within mobile, modular and static plants.

• 

Jaw crushers are used for crushing larger rock, primarily at the quarry face or on recycling duties. Applications include 
hard rock, sand and gravel and recycled materials. Cone crushers are used in secondary and tertiary applications to reduce 
a number of materials, including quarry rock and riverbed gravel.

•  Horizontal shaft impactors are primary and secondary crushers. They are typically applied to reduce soft to medium hard 
materials, as well as recycled materials. Vertical shaft impactors are secondary and tertiary crushers that reduce material 
utilizing various rotor configurations and are highly adaptable to any application.

Our screening and feeder equipment includes:

•  Heavy duty inclined and horizontal screens and feeders, which are used in low to high tonnage applications and are 
available as either stationary or heavy-duty mobile equipment. Screens are used in all phases of plant design from handling 
quarried material to fine screening. Dry screening is used to process materials such as sand, gravel, quarry rock, coal, 
ore, construction and demolition waste, soil, compost and wood chips.
Feeders are used to unload materials from hoppers and bulk material storage at controlled rates. They are available for 
applications ranging from primary feed hoppers to fine material bin unloading. Our range includes apron feeders, grizzly 
feeders and pan feeders.

• 

Washing system products include mobile and static wash plants incorporating separation, washing, scrubbing, dewatering and 
stockpiling.  We manufacture mobile and stationary rinsing screens, scrubbing systems, sand screw dewaterers, bucket-wheel 
dewaterers, water management systems, hydrocyclone plants for efficient silt extraction and a range of stockpiling conveyors.  
Washing systems operate in the aggregates, recycling, mining and industrial sands segments.

Wood processing, biomass and recycling equipment includes shredders, grinders, trommels, chippers, compost turners and specialty 
systems.  This equipment is used in, among other things, recycling, wood energy, green waste/construction, demolition recycling 
industries and pulp and paper.

We manufacture a range of conveyors which include tracked mobile conveyors.  Conveyors are mechanical machines used to 
transport and stockpile materials such as aggregates and minerals after processing.

10

SPECIALTY EQUIPMENT.  We manufacture material handlers, concrete mixer trucks and concrete pavers.

•  Material handlers are designed for handling logs, scrap, recycling and other bulky materials with clamshell, magnet or 

grapple attachments.

•  Concrete mixer trucks are machines with a large revolving drum in which cement is mixed with other materials to make 

concrete. We offer models with custom chassis with configurations from three to seven axles.
•  Our concrete pavers are used to finish bridges, concrete streets, highways and airport surfaces.

We define backlog as firm orders that are expected to be filled within one year, although there can be no assurance that all such 
backlog orders will be filled within that time. Our backlog orders represent primarily new equipment orders.  Parts orders are 
generally filled on an as-ordered basis.

Our management views backlog as one of many indicators of the performance of our business.  Because many variables can cause 
changes in backlog and these changes may or may not be of any significance, we consequently view backlog as an important, but 
not necessarily determinative, indicator of future results.

Our overall backlog amounts at December 31, 2018 increased $310.6 million from our backlog amounts at December 31, 2017, 
primarily due to higher orders across all business segments.  The negative impact of foreign exchange rate changes on 2018 backlog 
was approximately 3% when compared to 2017.

AWP segment backlog at December 31, 2018 increased approximately 14% from our backlog amounts at December 31, 2017.  
This increase from the prior year was driven primarily by higher orders in North America and Asia.

Cranes segment backlog at December 31, 2018 increased approximately 6% from our backlog amounts at December 31, 2017.  
This increase from the prior year was driven primarily by higher orders in our Utilities business.  The negative impact of foreign 
exchange rate changes on 2018 backlog was approximately 2% when compared to 2017.  

MP segment backlog at December 31, 2018 increased approximately 54% from our backlog amounts at December 31, 2017.   This 
increase from the prior year was driven primarily by increased demand for crushing and screening products globally and concrete 
mixer trucks in North America.  Foreign exchange negatively impacted 2018 backlog by approximately 6% when compared to 
2017.

DISTRIBUTION

We distribute our products through a global network of dealers, rental companies, major accounts and direct sales to customers.

AERIAL WORK PLATFORMS

Our  aerial  work  platform,  telehandler  and  light  tower  products  are  distributed  principally  through  a  global  network  of  rental 
companies and independent distributors.  We employ sales representatives who service these channel partners from offices located 
throughout the world.

11

CRANES

We market our crane products globally, optimizing assorted channel marketing systems, including a distribution network and a 
direct sales force.  We have direct sales, primarily to specialized crane rental companies, in certain crane markets such as Australia, 
Singapore, the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy, France, Scandinavia, the Middle East and China 
to offer comprehensive service and support to customers.  Distribution via a distributor network is often utilized in other geographic 
areas, including the United States and Canada where we also sell directly to key accounts.

We  sell  utility  equipment  to  the  utility  and  municipal  markets  through  a  direct  sales  model  in  certain  territories  and  through 
independent distributors in North America.  Outside of North America, independent distributors sell our utility equipment directly 
to customers.

MATERIALS PROCESSING

We distribute our products through a global network of independent distributors, rental companies, major accounts and direct 
sales to customers.

RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING

We maintain engineering staff primarily at our manufacturing locations to conduct research, development and engineering for site-
specific products.  We have also established competency centers that support entire segments from single locations in certain fields 
such as control systems.  Our businesses also assess global trends to understand future needs of our customers and help us decide 
which  technologies  to  implement  in  future  development  projects.    In  addition,  our  engineering  center  in  India  supports  our 
engineering teams worldwide through new product design, existing product design improvement and development of products for 
local markets.  Continually monitoring our materials, manufacturing and engineering costs is essential to identify possible savings, 
then leverage those savings to improve our competitiveness and our customers’ return on investment.  Our research, development 
and engineering expenses are primarily incurred to develop (i) additional applications and extensions of our existing product lines 
to meet customer needs and take advantage of growth opportunities, and (ii) customer responsive enhancements and continuous 
cost improvements of existing products.

Our engineering focus mirrors the business priorities of delivering customer responsive solutions, growing in developing markets, 
complying  with  evolving  regulatory  standards  in  our  global  markets  and  applying  our  lean  manufacturing  principles  by 
standardizing products, rationalizing components and strategically aligning with select global suppliers.  Our engineering teams 
in China and India represent our commitment to engineering products for developing markets.  They take equipment technology 
from the developed markets and translate it to appropriate technology for developing markets using the experience and cultural 
understanding of engineering teams native to those markets.

Product change driven by new regulations continues to be a focus of the Company, including the newest diesel engine emission 
reduction program introduced in Europe, known as Stage V, which is driving further engine emissions related product development 
and introduction in 2019.  Product innovation has become a core element of our growth strategy.  We have re-invigorated and 
increased our emphasis on creating new models and meeting the demands of our customers.  Robust product development pipelines 
are in place, which we expect will continue to bring new, differentiated products to the market in the years ahead.  We have also 
focused on producing more cost-effective product solutions across various segments.

We will continue our commitment to appropriate levels of research, development and engineering spending in order to meet our 
customer needs, uphold competitive functionality of our products and maintain regulatory compliance in all the markets we serve.

customer accounted for less than 5% of our consolidated net sales and our top ten customers in the aggregate accounted for less 
than 25% of our consolidated net sales.  A material portion of AWP net sales are to national rental companies.

13

EMPLOYEES

As  of  December 31,  2018,  we  had  approximately  11,700  employees;  including  approximately  5,600  employees  in  the  U.S.  
Approximately one percent of our employees in the U.S. are represented by labor unions.  Outside of the U.S., we enter into 
employment contracts and collective agreements in those countries in which such relationships are mandatory or customary.  The 
provisions of these agreements correspond in each case with the required or customary terms in the subject jurisdiction.  We 
generally consider our relations with our employees to be good.

PATENTS, LICENSES AND TRADEMARKS

We use proprietary materials such as patents, trademarks, trade secrets and trade names in our operations and take actions to protect 
these rights.

We use several significant trademarks and trade names, most notably the Terex®, Genie®, Powerscreen®, Demag® and Fuchs® 
trademarks.  The other trademarks and trade names that we use include registered trademarks of Terex Corporation or its subsidiaries.  
Demag® is a registered trademark of Demag IP Holdings GmbH, which is a joint venture owned 50% by Terex and 50% by 
Konecranes.

We have many patents that we use in connection with our operations and most of our products contain some proprietary technology.  
Many of these patents and related proprietary technology are important to the production of particular products; however, overall, 
our patents, taken together, are not material to our business or our overall financial results.

Currently, we are engaged in various legal proceedings with respect to intellectual property rights.  While the outcome of these 
matters  cannot  be  predicted  with  certainty,  we  believe  the  outcome  of  such  matters  will  not  have  a  material  adverse  effect, 
individually or in aggregate, on our business or operating performance.  For more detail, see Item 3 – “Legal Proceedings.”

SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS

As part of The Terex Way, we are committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for our team members, and strive to 
provide quality products that are safe to use and operate in an environmentally conscious and respectful manner.

We generate hazardous and non-hazardous wastes in the normal course of our manufacturing operations.  As a result, we are subject 
to a wide range of environmental laws and regulations.  All of our employees are required to obey all applicable health, safety and 
environmental laws and regulations and must observe the proper safety rules and environmental practices in work situations.  These 
laws and regulations govern actions that may have adverse environmental effects, such as discharges to air and water, and require 
compliance with certain practices when handling and disposing of hazardous and non-hazardous wastes.  These laws and regulations 
would also impose liability for the costs of, and damages resulting from, cleaning up sites, past spills, disposals and other releases 
of hazardous substances, should any such events occur.  We are committed to complying with these standards and monitoring our 
workplaces to determine if equipment, machinery and facilities meet specified safety standards.  Each of our manufacturing facilities 
is subject to an environmental audit at least once every five years to monitor compliance and no incidents have occurred which 
required us to pay material amounts to comply with such laws and regulations.  We are dedicated to ensuring that safety and health 
hazards are adequately addressed through appropriate work practices, training and procedures.  For example, we continue to reduce 
lost time injuries and work toward a world-class level of safety practices in our industry.

We are dedicated to product safety when designing and manufacturing our equipment.  Our equipment is designed to meet all 
applicable laws, regulations and industry standards for use in their markets.  We continually incorporate safety improvements in 
our products.  We maintain an internal product safety team that is dedicated to improving safety and investigating and resolving 
any product safety issues that may arise.

Use and operation of our equipment in an environmentally conscious manner is an important priority for us.  We are aware of 
global discussions regarding climate change and the impact of greenhouse gas emissions on global warming.  We are increasing 
our production of products that have lower greenhouse gas emissions in response to both regulatory initiatives and anticipated 
market demand trends.  For example, the newest diesel engine emission reduction program introduced in Europe, known as Stage 
V, is driving further engine emissions related product development and introduction in 2019.  Our segments also offer products 
that use plug-in electric hybrid technology to save fuel, reduce emissions and reduce noise in residential areas.

14

Increasing laws and regulations dealing with the environmental aspects of the products we manufacture can result in significant 
expenditures in designing and manufacturing new forms of equipment that satisfy such new laws and regulations.  Compliance 
with laws and regulations regarding safety and the environment has required, and will continue to require, us to make expenditures.  
We currently do not expect that these expenditures will have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations.

SEASONAL FACTORS

Terex is a globally diverse company, supporting multiple end uses.  Seasonality is a factor in some businesses, where annual 
purchasing patterns are impacted by the seasonality of downstream project spending.  Specifically, our businesses can experience 
stronger demand during the second quarter, as customers in the northern hemisphere make investments in time for the annual 
construction season (April to October).  We expect a normal historical sales pattern in 2019.

WORKING CAPITAL

Our  businesses  are  working  capital  intensive  and  require  funding  to  purchase  production  and  replacement  parts  inventories, 
expenditures to repair, replace and upgrade existing facilities, as well as funding to finance receivables from customers and dealers.  
We  have  debt  service  requirements,  including  semi-annual  interest  payments  on  our  outstanding  notes  and  quarterly  interest 
payments on our bank credit facility.  We believe cash generated from operations, together with availability under our bank credit 
facility and cash on hand, provide us with adequate liquidity to meet our operating and debt service requirements.  See Item 1A. 
– “Risk Factors” for a detailed description of the risks resulting from our debt and our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to 
operate our business.  We will continue to pursue cash generation opportunities, including reducing costs and working capital, 
reviewing alternatives for under-utilized assets, and selectively investing in our businesses to promote growth opportunities.

ITEM 1A. 

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following risks, together with the cautionary statement under the caption “Forward-Looking 
Information” above and the other information included in this report.  The risks described below are not the only ones we face.  
Additional risks that are currently unknown to us or that we currently consider immaterial may also impair our business or adversely 
affect our financial condition or results of operations.  If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition 
or results of operation could be adversely affected.

Our business is affected by the cyclical nature of markets we serve.

Demand for our products tends to be cyclical and is affected by the general strength of the economies in which we sell our products, 
prevailing interest rates, residential and non-residential construction spending, capital expenditure allocations of our customers 
and other factors.  While we currently expect markets to remain relatively stable in 2019, geopolitical and economic uncertainty 
has increased, including as a result of tariffs imposed by the U.S. and retaliatory tariffs implemented by China and other countries.  
If the global economy weakens, it may cause customers to continue to forego or postpone new purchases in favor of reducing their 
existing fleets or refurbishing or repairing existing machinery.

Our sales depend in part upon our customers’ replacement or repair cycles, which are impacted in part by historical purchase 
levels.  In addition, if our customers are not successful in generating sufficient revenue or are precluded from securing financing, 
they may not be able to pay, or may delay payment of, accounts receivable owed to us.  If global economic conditions are weaker 
than our market expectations or the global economic weakness of the recent past were to recur, then there could be an adverse 
effect on our net sales, financial condition, profitability and/or cash flow which could result in the need for us to record impairments.

Changes in import/export regulatory regimes, the imposition of tariffs and escalation of global trade conflicts could continue 
to negatively impact our business.

The current U.S. administration has expressed strong concerns about imports from countries that it perceives as engaging in unfair 
trade practices.  In 2018, the U.S. Commerce Department initiated tariffs under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 
and Section 301 of the U.S. Trade Act of 1974 which imposed tariffs on steel, aluminum and certain other foreign goods.  In 
response, certain foreign governments, including China, have imposed and are considering imposing additional tariffs on certain 
U.S. goods.  These actions have significantly impacted our material costs. In particular, prices for steel, a primary material in our 
products, rose considerably starting in the first quarter of 2018.  While prices for hot rolled coil steel appear to be trending downward, 
steel plate prices remain elevated.  In addition, tariffs on certain Chinese origin goods impact the cost of material and machines 
that we import directly from our manufacturing operations in China, as well as the cost of material and components imported on 
our behalf by suppliers.  The indirect impact of the inflationary pressure on costs throughout the supply chain and the direct impact, 
for example, on costs for machines we import from our manufacturing operations in China, is leading to higher input costs and 
lower margins on certain products we sell.  In addition, tariffs imposed by the Chinese government on U.S. imports have made 
the cost of some of our products more expensive for our Chinese customers.

The tariffs and the possibility of an escalation of current trade conflicts, particularly between the U.S. and China, could continue 
to negatively impact global trade and economic conditions in many of the regions where we do business.  This could result in 
continued  significant  increases  in  our  material  and  component  costs  and  the  cost  of  machinery  imported  directly  from  our 
manufacturing operations in China.  In addition, it may adversely impact demand for our products in China and elsewhere.  While 
we  will  seek  to  receive  duty  draw-back  credits  in  future  periods  for  certain  products  affected  by  Section  301  tariffs  thereby 
mitigating a portion of the effects of Section 301 tariffs, if we are unable to recover a substantial portion of increased raw material, 
component or machinery costs either from duty draw-back credits or from our customers and suppliers, or if trade conflicts lead 
to a significant reduction in demand for our products, this could have an adverse effect on our business or results of operations.

Our financial results could be adversely impacted by the U.K.’s departure from the E.U.

Uncertainty related to the withdrawal of the U.K. from the E.U. commonly referred to as “Brexit,” which is currently expected to 
occur on March 29, 2019, could negatively impact the global economy, particularly many important European economies.  Given 
the lack of comparable precedent, it is unclear what financial, trade and legal implications the withdrawal of the U.K. from the 
E.U. will have on us, particularly for our MP segment which has significant manufacturing facilities in Northern Ireland.  Depending 
on the terms of Brexit, we could become subject to, among other things, export tariffs and regulatory restrictions that could increase 
transaction costs, reduce our ability to hire or retain employees in Northern Ireland, reduce access to supplies and materials, cause 
shipping delays because of the need for new customs inspections and procedures and reduce demand or access to customers in 
international markets, all of which would impair our ability to conduct our operations as they have been conducted historically.  
These and other potential implications of Brexit could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operation.
16

We have a significant amount of debt outstanding and must comply with restrictive covenants in our debt agreements.

Our total debt at December 31, 2018 was approximately $1.2 billion.  Our credit agreement and other debt agreements contain 
financial and restrictive covenants that may limit our ability to, among other things, borrow additional funds or take advantage of 
business opportunities.  As of December 31, 2018, we are in compliance with the financial covenants.  However, increases in our 
debt, increases in our interest expense or decreases in our earnings could cause us to fail to comply with these financial covenants.  
Failing to comply with such covenants could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration 
of all our indebtedness or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and debt service 
capability.

Our level of debt and the financial and restrictive covenants contained in our credit agreement could have important consequences 
on our financial position and results of operations, including increasing our vulnerability to increases in interest rates because debt 
under our credit agreement bears interest at variable rates.  In addition, our credit agreement indebtedness may use LIBOR as a 
benchmark for establishing our interest rate.  LIBOR is the subject of recent national, international and other regulatory guidance 
and proposals for reform.  These reforms and other pressures may cause LIBOR to perform differently than in the past or to be 
replaced entirely.  The consequences of these developments cannot be entirely predicted, but could include an increase in the cost 
of our credit agreement indebtedness.

We may be unable to generate sufficient cash flow to service our debt obligations.

Servicing our debt requires a significant amount of cash.  Our ability to generate sufficient cash depends on numerous factors 
beyond our control and our business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operating activities.  Our ability to make payments 
on, and refinance, our debt and fund planned capital expenditures will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future.  To 
some extent, this is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond 
our control. Lower sales, or uncollectible receivables, generally will reduce our cash flow.

We cannot assure our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, or future borrowings will be available to us 
under our credit facility or otherwise, in an amount sufficient to fund our liquidity needs.

If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to service our indebtedness, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital 
expenditures, sell assets, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance our indebtedness.  These alternative measures may not 
be successful and may not permit us to meet our scheduled debt service obligations.  Our ability to restructure or refinance our 
debt will depend on the condition of the capital markets and our financial condition at such time.  Any refinancing of our debt 
could be at higher interest rates and may require us to comply with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict our 
business operations.

Our access to capital markets and borrowing capacity could be limited in certain circumstances.

Our access to capital markets to raise funds through the sale of equity or debt securities is subject to various factors, including 
general economic and/or financial market conditions.  Significant changes in market liquidity conditions could impact access to 
funding and associated funding costs, which could reduce our earnings and cash flows.  If our consolidated cash flow coverage 
ratio is less than 2.0 to 1.0, we are subject to significant restrictions on the amount of indebtedness we can incur.  Although our 
cash flow coverage ratio was greater than 2.0 to 1.0 at the end of 2018, there can be no assurance this will continue to occur.

Our access to debt financing at competitive risk-based interest rates is partly a function of our credit ratings.  A downgrade to our 
credit ratings could increase our interest rates, could limit our access to public debt markets, could limit the institutions willing to 
provide us credit facilities, and could make any future credit facilities or credit facility amendments more costly and/or difficult 
to obtain.

17

Although we believe the banks participating in our credit facility have adequate capital and resources, we can provide no assurance 
that all of these banks will continue to operate as a going concern in the future.  If any of the banks in our lending group were to 
fail or be unwilling to renew our credit facility at or prior to its expiration, it is possible that the borrowing capacity under our 
current or any future credit facility would be reduced.  If the availability under our credit facility was reduced significantly, we 
could be required to obtain capital from alternate sources to finance our capital needs.  Our options for addressing such capital 
constraints would include, but not be limited to (i) obtaining commitments from the remaining banks in the lending group or from 
new banks to fund increased amounts under the terms of our credit facility, or (ii) accessing the public capital markets.  If it becomes 
necessary to access additional capital, it is possible that any such alternatives in the current market could be on terms less favorable 
than under our existing credit facility terms, which could have a negative impact on our consolidated financial position, results of 
operations or cash flows.

Our business is sensitive to government spending.

Many of our customers depend substantially on government funding of highway construction, maintenance and other infrastructure 
projects.    In  addition,  we  sell  products  to  governments  and  government  agencies  in  the  U.S.  and  other  nations.    Policies  of 
governments attempting to address local deficit or structural economic issues could have a material impact on our customers and 
markets.  Any decrease or delay in government funding of highway construction and maintenance, other infrastructure projects 
and overall government spending could cause our revenues and profits to decrease.

We operate in a highly competitive industry.

Our industry is highly competitive.  To compete successfully, our products must excel in terms of quality, reliability, productivity, 
price, features, ease of use, safety and comfort, and we must provide excellent customer service.  The greater financial resources 
of certain of our competitors may put us at a competitive disadvantage.  Low-cost competition from China and other developing 
markets  could  also  result  in  decreased  demand  for  our  products.    If  competition  in  our  industry  intensifies  or  if  our  current 
competitors lower their prices for competing products, we may lose sales or be required to lower the prices we charge for our 
products.    If  we  are  unable  to  provide  continued  technological  improvements  in  our  equipment  that  meet  our  customers’ 
expectations, or the industry’s expectations, the demand for our equipment could be substantially adversely affected.  Our ability 
to match new product offerings to diverse global customers’ anticipated preferences for different types and sizes of equipment 
and  various  equipment  features  and  functionality,  at  affordable  prices,  is  critical  to  our  success.    This  requires  a  thorough 
understanding of our existing and potential customers on a global basis, particularly in developing markets, including Brazil, China 
and India.  Failure to compete effectively could result in lower revenues from our products and services, lower gross margins or 
cause us to lose market share.

We rely on key management.

We rely on the management and leadership skills of our senior management team, particularly those of the Chief Executive Officer. 
The loss of the services of key employees or senior officers, or the inability to identify, hire and retain other highly qualified 
personnel in the future, could adversely affect the quality and profitability of our business operations.

Some of our customers rely on financing with third parties to purchase our products.

We rely on sales of our products to generate cash from operations.  Significant portions of our sales are financed by third party 
finance companies on behalf of our customers.  The availability of financing by third parties is affected by general economic 
conditions, credit worthiness of our customers and estimated residual value of our equipment.  Deterioration in credit quality of 
our customers or estimated residual value of our equipment could negatively impact the ability of our customers to obtain resources 
they need to purchase our equipment.  There can be no assurance third party finance companies will continue to extend credit to 
our customers.

Some of our customers have been unable to obtain the credit they need to buy our equipment.  As a result, some of our customers 
may need to cancel existing orders and some may be compelled to sell their equipment at less than fair value to raise cash, which 
could have a negative impact on residual values of our equipment.  These economic conditions could have a material adverse 
effect on demand for our products and on our financial condition and operating results.

18

We are exposed to losses from providing financing and credit support to some of our customers.

We assist customers in their rental, leasing and acquisition of our products through TFS.  We provide financing for some of our 
customers, primarily in the U.S., to acquire and use our equipment through loans, sales-type leases, and operating leases.  TFS 
enters into these financing agreements with the intent either to hold the financing until maturity or to sell the financing to a third 
party within a short time period.  Until such financing obligations are satisfied through either customer payments or a third party 
sale, we retain the risks associated with such customer financing.  Our results could be adversely affected if such customers default 
on their contractual obligations to us, if residual values of such equipment on these transactions decline below original estimated 
values or we are unable to sell the financing receivable to a third party.

As described above, our customers, from time to time, may fund acquisition of our equipment through third-party finance companies.  
In certain instances, we may provide credit guarantees or residual value guarantees.  With these guarantees, we must assess the 
probability of losses or non-performance in ways similar to the evaluation of accounts receivable, including consideration of a 
customer’s payment history, leverage, availability of third party financing, political and currency exchange risks, and other factors.  
Many of these factors, including assessment of a customer’s ability to pay, are influenced by economic and market factors that 
cannot be predicted with certainty.  We establish reserves based upon our analysis of the current quality and financial position of 
our customers, past payment experience and collateral values.  In circumstances where we believe it is probable that a specific 
customer will have difficulty meeting its financial obligations, a specific reserve is recorded to recognize a liability for a guarantee 
we expect to pay, taking into account any amounts that we would anticipate realizing if we are forced to repossess the equipment 
that supports the customer’s financial obligations to us.  During periods of economic weakness, collateral underlying our guarantees 
of indebtedness of customers or receivables can decline sharply, thereby increasing our exposure to losses.  In the future, we may 
incur losses in excess of our recorded reserves if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate further or the full 
amount of any anticipated proceeds from the sale of the collateral supporting our customers’ financial obligations is not realized.  
Historically, losses related to guarantees have been immaterial; however, there can be no assurance that our historical experience 
with respect to guarantees will be indicative of future results.

We may experience losses in excess of our recorded reserves for trade receivables.

As of December 31, 2018, we had trade receivables of $659.9 million.  We evaluate the collectability of open accounts, finance 
receivables and note receivables based on a combination of factors and establish reserves based on our estimates of probable 
losses.  In circumstances where we believe it is probable that a specific customer will have difficulty meeting its financial obligations, 
a specific reserve is recorded to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount we expect to recover.  We also establish 
additional reserves based upon our analysis of the quality of the current receivables, the current financial position of our customers 
and past collections experience.  An unexpected change in customer financial condition or future economic uncertainty could 
result in additional requirements for specific reserves, which could have a negative impact on our consolidated financial position.

We are dependent upon third-party suppliers, making us vulnerable to supply shortages and price increases.

We obtain materials and manufactured components from third-party suppliers.  In the absence of labor strikes or other unusual 
circumstances, substantially all materials and components are normally available from multiple suppliers.  However, certain of 
our businesses receive materials and components from a single source supplier, although alternative suppliers of such materials 
are generally available.  Delays in our suppliers’ abilities, especially any sole suppliers for a particular business, to provide us with 
necessary materials and components may delay production at a number of our manufacturing locations, or may require us to seek 
alternative supply sources.  Delays in obtaining supplies may result from a number of factors affecting our suppliers, including 
capacity constraints, labor disputes, suppliers’ impaired financial condition, suppliers’ allocations to other purchasers, weather 
emergencies or acts of war or terrorism.  Any delay in receiving supplies could impair our ability to deliver products to our 
customers and, accordingly, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Principal materials and components used in our various manufacturing processes include steel, castings, engines, tires, hydraulics, 
cylinders, drive trains, electric controls and motors, and a variety of other commodities and fabricated or manufactured items.  
Increases in the cost of these materials and components may affect our financial performance.  Prices for steel in particular rose 
considerably starting in the first quarter of 2018.  While prices for hot rolled coil steel appear to be trending downward, steel plate 
prices remain elevated in large part because of the current trade conflict between the U.S. and China.  Prices for certain other raw 
materials and components we purchase from our suppliers also have risen significantly as result of current trade conflicts.  If we 
are not able to recover increased raw material or component costs either from duty draw-back credits or our customers, our margins 
could be adversely affected.

In addition, we purchase material and services from our suppliers on terms extended based on our overall credit rating.  Deterioration 
in our credit rating may impact suppliers’ willingness to extend terms and in turn increase the cash requirements of our business.
19

We are subject to currency fluctuations.

Our products are sold in over 100 countries around the world.  The reporting currency for our consolidated financial statements 
is the U.S. dollar.  Certain of our assets, liabilities, expenses, revenues and earnings are denominated in other countries’ currencies, 
including the Euro, British Pound and Australian dollar.  Those assets, liabilities, expenses, revenues and earnings are translated 
into U.S. dollars at the applicable exchange rates to prepare our consolidated financial statements.  Therefore, increases or decreases 
in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and those other currencies affect the value of those items as reflected in our consolidated 
financial statements, even if their value remains unchanged in their original currency.  Due to the continued volatility of foreign 
currency exchange rates to the U.S. dollar, fluctuations in currency exchange rates may have an impact on the accuracy of our 
financial guidance. Such fluctuations in foreign currency rates relative to the U.S. dollar may cause our actual results to differ 
materially from those anticipated in our guidance and have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations.  We 
note that the upcoming withdrawal of the U.K. from the E.U. may negatively impact the value of the British Pound as compared 
to the U.S. dollar and other currencies as the U.K. negotiates and executes its exit from the E.U., which is currently expected to 
occur on March 29, 2019.

We may buy protecting or offsetting positions (known as “hedges”) in certain currencies to reduce the risk of an adverse currency 
exchange movement.  We have not engaged in any speculative hedging activities.  Although we partially hedge our revenues and 
costs, currency fluctuations may impact our financial performance in the future.

We are exposed to political, economic and other risks that arise from operating a multinational business.

Our operations are subject to a number of potential risks. Such risks principally include:

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

• 
• 
• 

trade protection measures and currency exchange controls;
labor unrest;
global and regional economic conditions;
political instability;
terrorist activities and the U.S. and international response thereto;
restrictions on the transfer of funds into or out of a country;
export duties and quotas;
domestic and foreign customs and tariffs;
current and changing regulatory environments;
difficulties protecting our intellectual property;
transportation delays and interruptions;
costs and difficulties in integrating, staffing and managing international operations, especially in developing markets such as 
China, India, Brazil and the Middle East;
difficulty in obtaining distribution support; 
natural disasters; and
current and changing tax laws.

In addition, many of the nations in which we operate have developing legal and economic systems adding greater uncertainty to 
our operations in those countries than would be expected in North America and Western Europe.  These factors may have an 
adverse effect on our international operations in the future.

20

We must comply with all applicable laws, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) and other laws that prohibit 
engaging in corruption for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business.  These anti-corruption laws prohibit companies and their 
intermediaries from making improper payments or providing anything of value to improperly influence government officials or 
private individuals for the purpose of obtaining or retaining a business advantage regardless of whether those practices are legal 
or culturally expected in a particular jurisdiction.  Our global activities and distribution model are subject to risk of corruption by 
our employees and in addition, our sales agents, distributors, dealers and other third parties that transact Terex business particularly 
because these parties are generally not subject to our control.  We have an internal policy that expressly prohibits engaging in any 
commercial bribery and public corruption, including facilitation payments.  We conduct corruption risk assessments, we have 
implemented  training  programs  for  our  employees  with  respect  to  the  Company’s  prohibition  against  public  corruption  and 
commercial bribery, and we perform reputational due diligence on certain third parties that transact Terex business.  In addition, 
we conduct transaction testing to assess compliance with our internal anti-corruption policy and procedures.  However, we cannot 
assure you that our policies, procedures and programs always will protect us from reckless or criminal acts committed by our 
employees or third parties that transact Terex business.  We have a zero tolerance policy for violations of anti-corruption laws and 
our anti-corruption policy.  In the event we believe or have reason to believe our employees, agents, representatives, dealers or 
distributors or other third parties that transact Terex business have or may have violated our anti-corruption policy or applicable 
anti-corruption laws, we investigate or have outside counsel investigate relevant facts and circumstances.  Although we have a 
compliance program in place designed to reduce the likelihood of potential violations of such laws, violations of  anti-corruption 
laws could result in significant fines, criminal sanctions against us or our employees, prohibitions on the conduct of our business 
including our business with the U.S. government, an adverse effect on our reputation, business and results of operations and 
financial condition and a violation of our injunction or cease and desist order with the SEC.  See Risk Factor entitled, “We must 
comply with an injunction and related obligations imposed by the SEC.”

We continue to focus on operational improvement in developing markets such as China, India, Brazil and the Middle East.  These 
efforts will require us to hire, train and retain qualified personnel in countries where language, cultural or regulatory barriers may 
exist.    Any  significant  difficulties  in  continuing  to  improve  or  expand  our  operations  in  developing  markets  may  divert 
management’s attention from our existing operations and require a greater level of resources than we plan to commit.

Expansion into developing markets may require modification of products to meet local requirements or preferences.  Modification 
to the design of our products to meet local requirements and preferences may take longer or be more costly than we anticipate and 
could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve international sales growth.

A material disruption to one of our significant manufacturing plants could adversely affect our ability to generate revenue.

We produce most of our machines for each product type at one manufacturing facility.  If operations at a significant facility were 
disrupted as a result of equipment failures, natural disasters, work stoppages, power outages or other reasons, our business, financial 
conditions and results of operations could be adversely affected.  Interruptions in production could increase costs and delay delivery 
of units in production.  Production capacity limits could cause us to reduce or delay sales efforts until production capacity is 
available.

We may be adversely impacted by work stoppages and other labor matters.

As of December 31, 2018, we employed approximately 11,700 people worldwide in our continuing operations businesses.  While 
we have no reason to believe that we will be impacted by work stoppages or other labor matters, we cannot assure that future 
issues with our team members or labor unions will be resolved favorably or that we will not encounter future strikes, further 
unionization efforts or other types of conflicts with labor unions or our team members.  Any of these factors may have an adverse 
effect on us or may limit our flexibility in dealing with our workforce.

Compliance with environmental regulations could be costly and require us to make significant expenditures.

We generate hazardous and nonhazardous wastes in the normal course of our manufacturing operations.  As a result, we are subject 
to  a  wide  range  of  environmental  laws  and  regulations.    These  laws  and  regulations  govern  actions  that  may  have  adverse 
environmental effects and require compliance with certain practices when handling and disposing of hazardous and nonhazardous 
wastes. Some environmental laws impose strict, retroactive and joint and several liability for the remediation of the release of 
hazardous substances, which could subject us to liability without regard to whether we were negligent or at fault.  Failure to comply 
with environmental laws could expose us to substantial fines or penalties and to civil and criminal liability.  These liabilities, 
sanctions, damages and remediation efforts related to any non-compliance with such laws and regulations could have a material 
adverse effect on our business or results of operations.  No such incidents have occurred which required us to pay material amounts 
to comply with such laws and regulations.

21

In addition, increasing laws and regulations dealing with environmental aspects of the products we manufacture can result in 
significant expenditures in designing and manufacturing new forms of equipment that satisfy such new laws and regulations.  In 
particular, climate change is receiving increasing attention worldwide.  Many scientists, legislators and others attribute climate 
change to increased levels of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, which has led to significant legislative and regulatory 
efforts to limit greenhouse gas emissions.  While additional regulation of emissions in the future appears likely, it is too early to 
predict how new regulations would ultimately affect our business, operations or financial results, although government policies 
limiting greenhouse gas emissions of our products will likely require increased compliance expenditures on our part.

While plans are in place to comply with the phase-in of European Stage V regulations, we are dependent on our engine suppliers 
to continue to timely deliver engines which meet applicable emissions regulations.  A failure to timely receive appropriate engines 
from our suppliers could result in our being placed in uncompetitive positions or without finished product when needed.  Compliance 
with environmental laws and regulations has required, and will continue to require, us to make expenditures, however we do not 
expect these expenditures to have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations.

We face litigation and product liability claims, class action lawsuits and other liabilities.

In our lines of business, numerous suits have been filed alleging damages for accidents that have occurred during use or operation 
of our products.  We are self-insured, up to certain limits, for these product liability exposures, as well as for certain exposures 
related to general, workers’ compensation and automobile liability.  We obtain insurance coverage for catastrophic losses as well 
as those risks where insurance is required by law or contract.  We do not believe that the outcome of such matters will have a 
material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position; however, any significant liabilities not covered by insurance could 
have an adverse effect on our financial condition.

We are the subject of a securities class action lawsuit and a stockholder derivative lawsuit.  These lawsuits generally cover the 
time period from February 2008 to February 2009 and allege, among other things, that certain of our SEC filings and other public 
statements contained false and misleading statements which resulted in damages to the Company, the plaintiffs and the members 
of the purported class when they purchased our securities and that there were breaches of fiduciary duties.  The complaints seek, 
among other things, unspecified compensatory damages, costs and expenses.  As a result, we are unable to estimate a possible 
loss or a range of losses for these lawsuits.  We believe that the allegations in the securities suit and allegations in the stockholder 
derivative claim are without merit, and we and the named executive will vigorously defend against them.  We believe that we have 
acted, and continue to act, in compliance with federal securities laws and Delaware law with respect to these matters.  On February 
13, 2019, the Company and the plaintiffs filed a joint letter to the court indicating that an agreement in principle to settle the 
securities suit had been reached subject to court approval.  The settlement amount is covered by insurance and not material to the 
financial results of the Company.  Until the settlement is finalized and ordered by the court, the outcome of both lawsuits cannot 
be predicted and, if determined adversely, could ultimately result in us incurring significant liabilities.  See Note Q – “Litigation 
and Contingencies,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on our securities class action 
lawsuit and stockholder derivative lawsuit.

We must comply with an injunction and related obligations imposed by the SEC.

We and our directors, officers and employees are required to comply at all times with the terms of a settlement with the SEC that 
includes an injunction barring us from committing or aiding and abetting any future violations of the anti-fraud, books and records, 
reporting and internal control provisions of the federal securities laws and related SEC rules.  In addition, regarding a separate 
and unrelated SEC matter, we consented to the entry of an administrative cease and desist order prohibiting future violations of 
certain provisions of the federal securities laws.  As a result, if we commit or aid or abet any future violations of the anti-fraud, 
books and records, reporting and internal control provisions of the federal securities laws and related SEC rules, we are likely to 
suffer severe penalties, financial and otherwise, that could have a material negative impact on our business and results of operations.

22

We may be adversely affected by disruption in, or breach in security of, our information technology systems.

We rely on information technology systems, some of which are managed by third parties, to process, transmit and store electronic 
information  (including  sensitive  data  such  as  confidential  business  information  and  personally  identifiable  data  relating  to 
employees, customers and other business partners), and to manage or support a variety of critical business processes and activities.  
As technology continues to evolve, we anticipate that we will collect and store even more data in the future and that our systems 
will increasingly use remote communication.  We continuously seek to maintain a robust program of information security and 
controls,  but  these  systems  may  be  damaged,  disrupted  or  shut  down  due  to  attacks  by  computer  hackers,  computer  viruses, 
employee error or malfeasance, power outages, hardware failures, telecommunication or utility failures, catastrophes or other 
unforeseen events, and in any such circumstances our system redundancy and other disaster recovery planning may be ineffective 
or inadequate. A failure of or breach in information technology security, particularly through malicious cyber-attacks which are 
increasing in both frequency and sophistication by both state and non-state actors, could expose us and our customers, distributors 
and suppliers to risks of misuse of information or systems, the compromise of confidential information, manipulation and destruction 
of data, defective products, production downtimes and operations disruptions. In addition, such breaches in security could result 
in misstated financial information, regulatory action, fines and litigation, and other potential liabilities, as well as the costs and 
operational consequences of implementing further data protection measures, each of which could have a material adverse effect 
on our business or results of operations.

The current cyber threat environment indicates increased risk for all companies.  Like other global companies, we have experienced 
cyber threats and incidents, although none have had a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition.  Our information 
security efforts include programs designed to address security governance, identification and protection of critical assets, insider 
risk, third-party risk and cyber defense operations.  While these measures are designed to reduce the risk of a breach or failure of 
our information technology systems, no security measures or countermeasures can guarantee that the Company will not experience 
a significant information security incident in the future. 

The timing and amount of benefits from the Company’s Execute to Win initiatives may not be as expected and the 
Company’s financial results could be adversely impacted.

We are in the process of implementing our Focus, Simplify and Execute to Win initiatives as part of our strategy to deliver long-
term growth and earnings to our shareholders.  The Execute to Win component of this strategy has three priority areas: Lifecycle 
Solutions, Commercial Excellence and Strategic Sourcing. We are making significant investments in each of these priority areas. 
However, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to realize the anticipated benefits of these initiatives.  Although 
Execute to Win is expected to improve future operating margins and revenue growth, if the Company is unable to achieve expected 
benefits from one or more of these three initiatives or is unable to complete these initiatives without material disruption to our 
businesses, the timing and amount of benefits may not be as expected and could adversely impact the Company’s competitive 
position, financial condition, profitability and/or cash flows.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We  are  involved  in  various  legal  proceedings,  including  product  liability,  general  liability,  workers’  compensation  liability, 
employment, commercial and intellectual property litigation, which have arisen in the normal course of operations.  We are insured 
for  product  liability,  general  liability,  workers’  compensation,  employer’s  liability,  property  damage  and  other  insurable  risk 
required by law or contract with retained liability to us or deductibles.  We believe the outcome of such matters, individually and 
in aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position.  However, outcomes of lawsuits cannot 
be predicted and, if determined adversely, could ultimately result in us incurring significant liabilities which could have a material 
adverse effect on our results of operations.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS 
OF OPERATIONS

BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Terex is a global manufacturer of aerial work platforms, cranes and materials processing machinery.  We design, build and support 
products used in construction, maintenance, manufacturing, energy, minerals and materials management applications.  Our products 
are manufactured in North and South America, Europe, Australia and Asia and sold worldwide.  We engage with customers through 
all stages of the product life cycle, from initial specification and financing to parts and service support.  We manage and report 
our business in the following segments: (i) AWP; (ii) Cranes; and (iii) MP.  Please refer to Note B - “Business Segment Information” 
in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for further information about our reportable segments.

Non-GAAP Measures

In this document, we refer to various GAAP (U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures.  
These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies.  We present non-
GAAP financial measures in reporting our financial results to provide investors with additional analytical tools which we believe 
are useful in evaluating our operating results and the ongoing performance of our underlying businesses.  We do not, nor do we 
suggest that investors consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information 
prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP measures we may use include translation effect of foreign currency exchange rate changes on net sales, gross profit, 
selling, general & administrative (“SG&A”) costs and operating profit, as well as the net sales, gross profit, SG&A costs and 
operating profit excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures.

As changes in foreign currency exchange rates have a non-operating impact on our financial results, we believe excluding effects 
of these changes assists in assessment of our business results between periods.  We calculate the translation effect of foreign 
currency exchange rate changes by translating current period results at rates that the comparable prior periods were translated at 
to isolate the foreign exchange component of the fluctuation from the operational component.  Similarly, impact of changes in our 
results from acquisitions and divestitures that were not included in comparable prior periods may be subtracted from the absolute 
change in results to allow for better comparability of results between periods.

We calculate a non-GAAP measure of free cash flow.  We define free cash flow as Net cash provided by (used in) operating 
activities, plus (minus) increases (decreases) in Terex Financial Services finance receivables consisting of sales-type leases and 
commercial loans (“TFS Assets”), less Capital expenditures (excluding acquisition of our Northern Ireland properties).  We believe 
this measure of free cash flow provides management and investors further useful information on cash generation or use in our 
primary operations.

We discuss forward looking information related to expected earnings per share (“EPS”) excluding restructuring charges and other 
items.  Our 2019 outlook for earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure because it excludes items such as restructuring 
and other related charges, transformation costs, gains and losses on divestitures and other unusual items.  The Company is not 
able to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP 
financial measures without unreasonable efforts because the Company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty 
the exact timing and impact of such items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s full-
year 2019 GAAP financial results.  Adjusted EPS provides guidance to investors about our EPS expectations excluding restructuring 
and other charges that we do not believe are reflective of our ongoing operations.

Working  capital  is  calculated  using  the  Consolidated  Balance  Sheet  amounts  for  Trade  receivables  (net  of  allowance)  plus 
Inventories (net of allowance), less Trade accounts payable and Customer advances.  We view excessive working capital as an 
inefficient use of resources, and seek to minimize the level of investment without adversely impacting the ongoing operations of 
the business.  Trailing three months annualized net sales is calculated using the net sales for the most recent quarter end multiplied 
by four.  The ratio calculated by dividing working capital by trailing three months annualized net sales is a non-GAAP measure 
that we believe measures our resource use efficiency.

Non-GAAP measures we also use include Net Operating Profit After Tax (“NOPAT”) as adjusted, income (loss) from operations 
as adjusted, annualized effective tax rate as adjusted, cash and cash equivalents as adjusted, Debt as defined below and Terex 
Corporation stockholders’ equity as adjusted, which are used in the calculation of our after tax return on invested capital (“ROIC”) 
(collectively the “Non-GAAP Measures”), which are discussed in detail below.

Overview

Focus, Simplify and Execute to Win are the three pillars of our business strategy.  We continued to implement the elements of our 
strategy in 2018 and the beginning of 2019.  The announced sale of our Demag® mobile crane business and the decision to exit 
the mobile crane product lines manufactured at our Oklahoma City facility, are expected to improve Terex’s operating results by 
Focusing the portfolio on our high performing businesses.  We simplified key elements of our infrastructure, including implementing 
a new global performance management system, consolidating to a single chart of accounts and up-grading our primary ERP system.  
We continue to invest in our Execute to Win business system, which remains focused on enhancing our capabilities by investing 
in people, processes and tools in our three priority areas: Commercial Excellence, Parts and Lifecycle Solutions and Strategic 
Sourcing.  We are seeing the benefits of these investments in our broad-based growth, market share gains and price realization.  
We continued to develop our Parts and Services organization in the fourth quarter and our strategic sourcing initiative continues 
to make progress.

Global demand for our products continues to grow.  For the full year 2018, we increased sales, operating margin and backlog in 
AWP and MP.  However, Cranes’ performance was negatively impacted by operational challenges.  In Cranes, improvements 
made in materials management, including closer coordination with our supply base, enabled better manufacturing productivity 
and customer deliveries in the fourth quarter, but this was not enough to overcome weaker performance in the first nine months 
of 2018.  Overall, we see positive momentum in our backlog (firm orders expected to be filled within one year) for our segments, 
which was up 19% year-over-year, excluding Corporate and Other.

An important development in 2018 was the announcement of the Section 232 tariffs on steel imports into the United States.  Steel 
prices had been trending up and market prices and futures prices for steel have risen dramatically since the beginning of 2018.  
We addressed the significant increase in steel prices by implementing surcharges on product lines that were impacted by these 
increases.  We are working closely with our customers, being open and transparent, to share increases equitably with them.  Another 
significant change in market dynamics was the implementation of Section 301 tariffs on certain Chinese imports beginning in 
early July 2018.  We have been working to mitigate the impact of these China tariffs as much as possible through various strategies, 
including duty drawbacks. However, these developments contributed to increased material costs in 2018, primarily in our AWP 
segment, and these increased costs are expected to continue in 2019.  See Part I, Item 1A - “Risk Factors - Changes in import/
export regulatory regimes, the imposition of tariffs and escalation of global trade conflicts could continue to negatively impact 
our business” for more information on the impact of tariffs on us.

Our AWP segment’s 2018 results included continued strong net sales driven by growth in North America.  Operating margins 
improved primarily due to production efficiencies which more than offset material cost headwinds.  AWP bookings in the fourth 
quarter were similar to last year and our backlog is up 14% on a year-over-year basis, reflecting continued strong global demand 
for our AWP products.  We are encouraged by the strength of the North American rental markets where our customers continue 
to anticipate growth and continue to increase their capital expenditure plans.  We expect margin improvement for the full year 
2019 versus 2018 on incremental sales volume although higher material costs are anticipated to continue to be headwinds.

Our Cranes segment underperformed through the first three quarters of 2018 inhibited by supply continuity issues but returned to 
profitability in the fourth quarter of 2018.  Although, the global Cranes markets are generally stable, our mobile cranes operations 
had  challenges  meeting  customer  demand  in  2018  for All Terrain  cranes  built  in  Zweibrucken,  Germany,  and  mobile  cranes 
produced in Oklahoma City.  We expect the global market for tower cranes to be relatively stable at a healthy level in 2019, and 
that our towers cranes team will continue to execute at a high level.  Finally, the Utilities team will remain focused on implementing 
its manufacturing strategy and executing its new product and service development plans designed to gain share in a stable market 
environment.

Our MP segment had another strong year, with its operating profit improving on increased net sales, despite material cost headwinds.  
Growth was driven by our mobile crushing and screening and scrap material handling product lines.  Broad-based economic 
growth, construction activity, aggregate consumption and environmental regulatory change continue to be primary drivers of 
demand for our crushing and screening equipment.  Demand for material handlers is also expected to remain strong, and the 
markets for our environmental products are growing.  We are encouraged by our backlog for the segment, which is up 54% 
compared to prior year.  We expect sales to grow modestly and margins to remain strong in 2019.

Our  2019  outlook  assumes  that  Brexit  will  not  significantly  impact  our  operations.    However,  given  the  lack  of  comparable 
precedent, it is unclear what financial, trade and legal implications the withdrawal of the U.K. from the E.U. will have on us, 
particularly for our MP segment which has significant manufacturing facilities in Northern Ireland.  We are taking measures to 
mitigate potential supply chain disruptions as a result of Brexit and will continue to closely monitor and assess events as they 
occur.

29

Geographically,  our  largest  market  is  North America,  which  represents  approximately  55%  of  our  global  sales  in  continuing 
operations.  Our sales grew globally, with sales up by double digit percentages in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin 
America.

We continued to execute our disciplined capital allocation strategy in 2018.  We are making strategic investments in our businesses.  
We initiated strategic investments to expand our global manufacturing footprint including a new Utilities manufacturing center 
in South Dakota, MP locations in the U.K. and India and AWP facilities in China.  These actions are consistent with our disciplined 
capital allocation strategy, making investments in high performing businesses that significantly out-earn their cost of capital over 
the cycle.  We continued to invest in our Transformation priority areas that underpin our long-term improvement plans.  We also 
continued to return capital to shareholders.  Throughout 2018 we re-purchased 11.4 million shares of Terex stock, returning $425 
million dollars to our shareholders.  In July 2018, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $300 
million of Terex stock, with $200 million remaining on this authorization.  The timing of share repurchases will be based on 
available liquidity, cash flows, general market conditions and compliance with covenants in our debt agreements.  Finally, our 
Board of Directors approved increasing our quarterly dividend in 2019 by 10% to $0.11 per share.

We expect to achieve significant financial improvements by executing the portfolio actions described above.  In addition, we are 
well positioned to benefit from the ongoing implementation of our Simplify and Execute to Win initiatives.  The following guidance 
is for continuing operations, which excludes the elements of our former Cranes segment that we are divesting and exiting.  We 
expect 2019 earnings per share (“EPS”) to be between $3.60 and $4.20, excluding restructuring and other unusual items, on net 
sales of approximately $4.7 billion.

ROIC

ROIC and other Non-GAAP Measures (as calculated below) assist in showing how effectively we utilize capital invested in our 
operations.  ROIC is determined by dividing the sum of NOPAT for each of the previous four quarters by the average of Debt less 
Cash and cash equivalents plus Terex Corporation stockholders’ equity for the previous five quarters.  NOPAT for each quarter is 
calculated by multiplying Income (loss) from operations by one minus the annualized effective tax rate.

In the calculation of ROIC, we adjust income (loss) from operations, annualized effective tax rate, cash and cash equivalents and 
Terex Corporation stockholders’ equity to remove the effects of the impact of certain transactions in order to create a measure that 
is useful to understanding our operating results and the ongoing performance of our underlying business without the impact of 
unusual items as shown in the tables below.  Furthermore, we believe returns on capital deployed in TFS do not represent our 
primary operations and, therefore, TFS Assets and results from operations have been excluded from the Non-GAAP Measures.  
Debt is calculated using amounts for Notes payable and current portion of long-term debt plus Long-term debt, less current portion.  
We calculate ROIC using the last four quarters’ adjusted NOPAT as this represents the most recent 12-month period at any given 
point of determination.  In order for the denominator of the ROIC ratio to properly match the operational period reflected in the 
numerator, we include the average of five quarters’ ending balance sheet amounts so that the denominator includes the average of 
the opening through ending balances (on a quarterly basis) thereby providing, over the same time period as the numerator, four 
quarters of average invested capital.

Terex management and Board of Directors use ROIC as one measure to assess operational performance, including in connection 
with certain compensation programs.  We use ROIC as a metric because we believe it measures how effectively we invest our 
capital and provides a better measure to compare ourselves to peer companies to assist in assessing how we drive operational 
improvement.  We believe ROIC measures return on the amount of capital invested in our primary businesses, excluding TFS, as 
opposed to another metric such as return on stockholders’ equity that only incorporates book equity, and is thus a more accurate 
and descriptive measure of our performance.  We also believe adding Debt less Cash and cash equivalents to Terex Corporation 
stockholders’ equity provides a better comparison across similar businesses regarding total capitalization, and ROIC highlights 
the level of value creation as a percentage of capital invested.  As the tables below show, our ROIC at December 31, 2018 was 
16.8%.

Amounts described below are reported in millions of U.S. dollars, except for the annualized effective tax rates.  Amounts are as 
of and for the three months ended for the periods referenced in the tables below.

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2018 increased $761.6 million when compared to 2017.  The increase in net sales was 
primarily due to higher demand for equipment in all segments.  Changes in foreign exchange rates positively impacted consolidated 
net sales by approximately $83 million.

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2018 increased $150.8 million when compared to 2017.  The increase was primarily 
due to higher sales and production volume and the positive impact of foreign exchange rate changes in all segments, partially 
offset by increased material costs across all segments, supply chain challenges in our mobile cranes operations and reductions 
taken in the prior year to severance accruals in our Cranes segment.

SG&A costs for the year ended December 31, 2018 increased $37.4 million when compared to 2017 primarily due to planned 
engineering and strategic sourcing spending.

Income from operations increased by $113.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 when compared to 2017.  The increase 
was primarily due to higher sales and production volume and the positive effects of exchange rate changes in all segments, partially 
offset by increased material costs across all segments, supply chain challenges in our mobile cranes operations, reductions taken 
in the prior year to severance accruals in our Cranes segment and higher selling and administrative costs associated with planned 
engineering and strategic sourcing spending.

Net sales for the AWP segment for the year ended December 31, 2018 increased $488.2 million when compared to 2017 primarily 
due to higher broad-based demand for aerial equipment in North America, Western Europe and China as well as telehandlers in 
North America from a combination of fleet replacement and growth in rental fleets due to improving rental utilization rates.  Net 
sales were positively impacted by effects of foreign exchange rate changes, particularly in Europe, of approximately $46 million.

Income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 increased $90.7 million when compared to 2017.  The increase 
was primarily due to increased sales volume, improved factory utilization and the positive impact of foreign exchange rate changes, 
partially offset by increased material costs, driven by higher steel prices and tariffs, and higher selling and administrative costs 
associated with planned engineering and strategic sourcing spending.

Net sales for the Cranes segment for the year ended December 31, 2018 increased by $121.0 million when compared to 2017 
primarily due to higher demand for mobile cranes, including new product introductions, tower cranes in North America and Asia 
and utility equipment.  These increases were generally from favorable macroeconomic trends and construction activity.  Net sales 
were positively impacted by the effects of foreign exchange rate changes, particularly in Europe, of approximately $22 million.

Loss from operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 increased by $31.2 million when compared to 2017.  The increase 
in operating loss was primarily due to supply chain challenges in our mobile cranes operations in the first nine months of 2018, 
material cost increases, a non-cash impairment charge and reductions taken in the prior year to severance accruals, partially offset 
by increased sales volume and a favorable change in our sales mix.

Net sales for the MP segment increased by $184.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 when compared to 2017 primarily 
due  to  higher  demand  for  mobile  crushing  and  screening  equipment  and  parts  as  a  result  of  broad-based  economic  growth, 
construction activity and aggregate consumption and increased material handler sales from a stronger scrap market.  These increases 
were partially offset by lower demand for concrete mixer trucks in North America due to emission regulations associated with 
sales of refurbished trucks.  Net sales were positively impacted by effects of foreign exchange rate changes, particularly in Europe, 
of approximately $15 million.

Income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 increased $42.4 million when compared to 2017 primarily due to

Net sales amounts in 2018 include on-book financing of TFS and elimination of intercompany sales activity among segments 
while  net  sales  in  2017  included  sales  in  various  construction  equipment  product  lines.   The  net  sales  decrease  is  primarily 
attributable to approximately $76 million related to divestiture of construction product lines and lower governmental sales, partially 
offset by lower intercompany sales eliminations and increased TFS revenue from syndications in 2018.

Loss from operations decreased $11.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 when compared to 2017.  The decrease in 
operating loss is primarily due to lower general and administrative expenses, partially offset by gains in the prior year on the sale 
of certain construction product line assets.

Interest Expense, Net of Interest Income

During the year ended December 31, 2018, our interest expense, net of interest income, was $64.2 million, or $3.6 million higher 
than the prior year due to increased borrowings at higher interest rates on floating rate instruments.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

During the year ended December 31, 2018, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $0.7 million as a result of an 
amendment to the 2017 Credit Agreement which lowered the interest rate on the Company’s senior secured term loan by 25 basis 
points.  During the year ended December 31, 2017, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $52.6 million primarily 
related to the termination of our 2014 Credit Agreement and retirement of our 6% Notes (as defined below) and 6-1/2% Notes (as 
defined below), all as further described in Note M - “Long-Term Obligations”.

Other Income (Expense) — Net

Other income (expense) – net for the year ended December 31, 2018 was a loss of $79.7 million, compared to a gain of $45.3 
million in 2017.  The change was due primarily to a loss of approximately $67 million related to the settlement of our U.S. defined 
benefit pension plan, as described in Note O - “Retirement Plans and Other Benefits”, and a net gain recorded in the prior year 
from the sale of Konecranes shares of $42.0 million and related dividend income of $13.5 million, as described in Note D - 
“Discontinued Operations And Other Divestitures”.

Income Taxes

During the year ended December 31, 2018, we recognized an income tax expense of $37.4 million on income of $148.7 million, 
an effective tax rate of 25.2%, as compared to an income tax expense of $52.0 million on income of $112.0 million, an effective 
tax rate of 46.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2017.  The lower effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2018 was 
primarily due to less tax expense associated with the impact of H.R. 1 “An Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to titles II 
and V of the concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2018” (the “2017 Federal Tax Act”) and higher benefits from the 
resolution of tax audits, partially offset by less favorable jurisdictional mix and character of earnings.

Gain (Loss) on Disposition of Discontinued Operations

During the year ended December 31, 2018, we recognized a gain on disposition of discontinued operations - net of tax of $2.4 
million, due primarily to a gain of $2.7 million related to the prior sale of our Atlas heavy construction equipment and knuckle-
boom cranes businesses (“Atlas”).  During the year ended December 31, 2017, we recognized a gain on disposition of discontinued 
operations - net of tax of $68.7 million, related primarily to the sale of our MHPS business.

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2017 decreased $79.7 million when compared to 2016.  The decline in net sales was 
primarily due to disposition of remaining construction equipment product lines and lower net sales in certain Cranes product lines.  
These declines were partially offset by higher demand for equipment in our MP and AWP segments.

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2017 increased $103.6 million when compared to 2016.  The increase was primarily 
due to higher sales volume in our MP and AWP segments, reduced restructuring and warranty charges in our Cranes segment and 
improved factory utilization in our AWP segment. The increase was partially offset by changes in customer mix and commodity 
price increases (primarily steel) in AWP, lower sales volume in Cranes and divestiture of certain construction product lines in 
Corporate.

SG&A costs for the year ended December 31, 2017 decreased $42.1 million when compared to 2016.  The decrease was primarily 
due to reduced costs associated with the divestiture of certain construction product lines in Corporate and severance in Cranes, 
partially offset by greater investment in our transformation initiatives in 2017 and higher accruals for team member incentive 
compensation due to improved Company performance in 2017.

In the year ended December 31, 2016, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of approximately $176 million to write down 
the value of goodwill due to deteriorating market conditions in our Cranes segment.

Income from operations increased by $321.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 when compared to 2016.  The increase 
was primarily due to year-over-year operating improvement in our Cranes segment mostly due to charges taken in 2016 that did 
not recur in 2017, reductions to severance accruals and warranty costs and structural cost savings as well as higher sales volume 
in our MP segment, partially offset by lower operating performance in our AWP segment, mostly due to changes in customer mix 
and increased commodity prices (primarily steel related).

Net sales for the AWP segment for the year ended December 31, 2017 increased $93.7 million when compared to 2016, primarily 
due  to  higher  demand  for  aerial  equipment  in  North America  and  Western  Europe,  particularly  with  respect  to  booms  and 
telehandlers.

Income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 decreased $7.1 million when compared to 2016.  The decrease 
was primarily due to increased commodity prices (primarily steel related) and changes in customer mix, partially offset by improved 
factory utilization and increased sales volume.

Net sales for the Cranes segment for the year ended December 31, 2017 decreased by $80.5 million when compared to 2016, as 
global crane markets, although stabilizing, were adversely impacted in 2017 by low oil, gas and commodity prices, reduced demand 
for large crawler and rough terrain cranes in the wind energy market in Germany and production constraints at our Oklahoma City 
facility.  This was partially offset by the positive impact of foreign exchange rate changes, particularly in Europe, of approximately 
$16 million.

Loss from operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 decreased by $304.4 million when compared to 2016.  The year-over-
year improvement was primarily driven by charges taken in 2016 that did not recur in 2017 which included an approximately 
$176 million goodwill impairment charge, approximately $92 million for severance and restructuring charges, approximately $20 
million for asset impairment charges in Europe, Asia and the U.S. and approximately $17 million of charges for increased warranty 
and inventory reserves.  Year-over-year improvement was also due to reductions to severance accruals established in the fourth 
quarter of the prior year as production volumes are expected to exceed earlier forecasts, requiring us to maintain a higher headcount, 
reduced warranty costs and structural cost savings.  The improvement was partially offset by lower sales volume, primarily with 
respect to large crawler and rough terrain cranes, and increased commodity prices.

Net sales for the MP segment increased by $128.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 when compared to 2016, primarily 
due to higher demand for mobile crushing and screening equipment, Fuchs material handlers, and environmental equipment, 
partially offset by the negative impact of foreign exchange rate changes, particularly in Europe, of approximately $7 million.

Income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 increased $38.5 million when compared to 2016, primarily from 
the effect of increased sales volume, partially offset by higher operating expenses and the negative impact of foreign exchange 
activity of approximately $4 million.

Net sales amounts include sales in various construction product lines and on-book financing of TFS, as well as elimination of 
intercompany sales activity among segments.  Net sales decreased by $220.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 when 
compared  to  2016,  primarily  attributable  to  approximately  $293  million  related  to  the  disposition  of  remaining  construction 
equipment product lines and lower intercompany sales eliminations, partially offset by increased government sales of approximately 
$42 million.

Loss from operations increased 14.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 when compared to 2016, primarily attributable 
to greater investment in our transformation initiatives and higher accruals for team member incentive compensation, partially 
offset by gains on the sale of certain construction product line assets and operating losses from divested construction product lines 
incurred in the prior year.

Interest Expense, Net of Interest Income

During the year ended December 31, 2017, our interest expense, net of interest income, was $60.6 million, or $37.1 million lower 
than the prior year due to lower borrowings at lower interest rates.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $52.6 million related to the 
termination of our 2014 Credit Agreement, the retirement of our 6% Notes (as defined below) and 6-1/2% Notes (as defined below) 
and an amendment related to the 2017 Credit Agreement which lowered the interest rate on the Company’s senior secured term 
loan by 0.25%, all as further described in Note M - “Long-Term Obligations”

Other Income (Expense) — Net

Other income (expense) – net for the year ended December 31, 2017 was income of $45.3 million, a $76.1 million increase in 
income when compared to the same period in the prior year.  As described in Note D - “Discontinued Operations and Other 
Divestitures”, we sold all Konecranes shares received in connection with sale of MHPS.  During the year ended December 31, 
2017, we recorded a net gain from the sale of shares of $42.0 million, including $41.6 million attributable to foreign exchange 
rate changes, and recorded related dividend income of $13.5 million.  Additionally, increased income in the current year period 
is attributable to merger-related costs incurred and asset impairments taken in the prior year, partially offset by increased losses 
from foreign currency exchange in the current year.

Income Taxes

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we recognized an income tax expense of $52.0 million on income of $112.0 million, 
an effective tax rate of 46.4%, as compared to an income tax benefit of $77.4 million on a loss of $270.7 million, an effective tax 
rate of 28.6%, for the year ended December 31, 2016.  The higher effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2017 was 
primarily due to tax expense associated with the 2017 Federal Tax Act partially offset by favorable jurisdictional mix.

Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations

Income from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2016 of $14.3 million was related to our MHPS business 
which was sold on January 4, 2017.

Gain (Loss) on Disposition of Discontinued Operations

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we recognized a gain on disposition of discontinued operations - net of tax of $65.7 
million related to the sale of our MHPS business and $3.0 million due to contractual earnout payments related to the sale of Atlas.  
During the year ended December 31, 2016, we recognized a gain on disposition of discontinued operations - net of tax of $3.5 
million, related primarily to Atlas contractual earnout payments.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make 
estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at 
the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Changes in 
estimates and assumptions used by management could have significant impacts on our financial results.  Actual results could differ 
from those estimates.

We believe the following are among our most significant accounting policies which are important in determining the reporting of 
transactions and events and which utilize estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and therefore are based 
on management judgment.  Please refer to Note A – “Basis of Presentation” in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements 
for a listing of our accounting policies.

Inventories – In valuing inventory, we are required to make assumptions regarding level of reserves required to value potentially 
obsolete or over-valued items at the lower of cost or net realizable value (“NRV”).  These assumptions require us to analyze the 
aging of and forecasted demand for our inventory, forecast future product sales prices, pricing trends and margins, and to make 
judgments and estimates regarding obsolete or excess inventory.  Future product sales prices, pricing trends and margins are based 
on the best available information at that time including actual orders received, negotiations with our customers for future orders, 
including their plans for expenditures, and market trends for similar products.  Our judgments and estimates for excess or obsolete 
inventory are based on analysis of actual and forecasted usage.  Valuation of used equipment taken in trade from customers requires 
us to use the best information available to determine the value of the equipment to potential customers.  This value is subject to 
change based on numerous conditions. Inventory reserves are established taking into account age, frequency of use, or sale, and 
in the case of repair parts, installed base of machines.  While calculations are made involving these factors, significant management 
judgment regarding expectations for future events is involved.  Future events that could significantly influence our judgment and 
related estimates include general economic conditions in markets where our products are sold, new equipment price fluctuations, 
actions of our competitors, including introduction of new products and technological advances, as well as new products and design 
changes we introduce.  We make adjustments to our inventory reserve based on identification of specific situations and increase 
our inventory reserves accordingly.  As further changes in future economic or industry conditions occur, we will revise estimates 
used to calculate our inventory reserves.

If actual conditions are less favorable than those we have projected, we will increase our reserves for lower of cost or NRV, excess 
and obsolete inventory accordingly.  Any increase in our reserves will adversely impact our results of operations.  Establishment 
of a reserve for lower of cost or NRV, excess and obsolete inventory establishes a new cost basis in the inventory.  Such reserves 
are not reduced until the product is sold.

Accounts Receivable – We are required to judge our ability to collect accounts receivable from our customers.  Valuation of 
receivables includes evaluating customer payment histories, customer leverage, availability of third-party financing, political and 
foreign exchange risks and other factors.  Many of these factors, including assessment of a customer’s ability to pay, are influenced 
by economic and market factors that cannot be predicted with certainty.  There can be no assurance our historical accounts receivable 
collection experience will be indicative of future results.

Guarantees – We have issued guarantees to financial institutions related to customer financing of equipment purchases by our 
customers.  We must assess the probability of losses or non-performance in ways similar to the evaluation of accounts receivable, 
including consideration of a customer’s payment history, leverage, availability of third party financing, political and exchange 
risks, and other factors.  Many of these factors, including the assessment of a customer’s ability to pay, are influenced by economic 
and market factors that cannot be predicted with certainty.

Our customers, from time to time, fund the acquisition of our equipment through third-party finance companies.  In certain instances, 
we may provide a credit guarantee to the finance company by which we agree to make payments to the finance company should 
the customer default.  Our maximum liability is generally limited to our customer’s remaining payments due to the finance company 
at the time of default.  In the event of a customer default, we are generally able to recover and dispose of the equipment at a 
minimum loss, if any, to us. 

We issue, from time to time, residual value guarantees under sales-type leases.  A residual value guarantee involves a guarantee 
that a piece of equipment will have a minimum fair market value at a future date if certain conditions are met by the customer.  
We are generally able to mitigate some risk associated with these guarantees because maturity of guarantees is staggered, which 
limits the amount of used equipment entering the marketplace at any one time.

41

We record a liability for the estimated fair value of guarantees issued pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) 
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 460, “Guarantees” (“ASC 460”).  We recognize a loss under a guarantee when our 
obligation to make payment under the guarantee is probable and the amount of the loss can be estimated.  A loss would be recognized 
if our payment obligation under the guarantee exceeds the value we could expect to recover to offset such payment, primarily 
through the sale of the equipment underlying the guarantee.

There can be no assurance our historical experience in used equipment markets will be indicative of future results.  Our ability to 
recover losses from our guarantees may be affected by economic conditions in used equipment markets at the time of loss.  See 
Note Q – “Litigation and Contingencies” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding 
our guarantees.

Revenue Recognition – We recognize revenue when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the 
consideration which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services.  In determining when and how revenue is 
recognized from contracts with customers, we perform the following five-step analysis: (i) identification of contract with customer; 
(ii) determination of performance obligations; (iii) measurement of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price 
to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.  
The majority of our revenue is recognized at the time of shipment, at the net sales price (transaction price).  Estimates of variable 
consideration, such as volume discounts and rebates, reduce transaction price when it is probable that a customer will attain these 
types of sales incentives.  These estimates are primarily derived from contractual terms and historical experience.

Goodwill – Goodwill, representing the difference between total purchase price and fair value of assets (tangible and intangible) 
and liabilities at the date of acquisition, is reviewed for impairment annually, and more frequently as circumstances warrant, and 
written down only in the period in which the recorded value of such assets and liabilities exceeds fair value.  We selected October 
1 as the date for our required annual impairment test.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or a component of an 
operating segment that constitutes a business for which discrete financial information with similar economic characteristics is 
available and operating results are regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker.  We have three reportable segments: 
AWP, Cranes and MP.  All operating segments are comprised of one reporting unit.  Only AWP and MP goodwill is tested for 
impairment as Cranes goodwill was fully impaired in 2016.

We may elect to perform a qualitative analysis for our reporting units to determine whether it is more likely than not the fair value 
of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying value.  If the qualitative analysis indicates that it is more likely than not the fair 
value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount or if we elect not to perform a qualitative analysis, we perform a quantitative 
analysis to determine whether a goodwill impairment exists.

The quantitative goodwill impairment analysis is used to identify potential impairment by comparing fair value of a reporting unit 
with its carrying amount.  We use an income approach, along with other relevant market information, derived from a discounted 
cash flow model to estimate fair value of our reporting units.  The aggregate fair value of our reporting units is compared to our 
market capitalization on the valuation date to assess its reasonableness.  Initial recognition of goodwill, as well as the annual 
review of carrying value of goodwill, requires that we develop estimates of future business performance.  These estimates are used 
to derive expected cash flows and include assumptions regarding future sales levels and the level of working capital needed to 
support a given business.  We rely on data developed by business segment management as well as macroeconomic data in making 
these calculations.  The discounted cash flow model also includes a determination of our weighted average cost of capital by 
reporting unit.  Cost of capital is based on assumptions about interest rates as well as a risk-adjusted rate of return required by our 
equity investors.  Changes in these estimates can impact present value of expected cash flows used in determining fair value of a 
reporting unit.  An impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, if any, 
would be recognized.  The loss recognized would not exceed total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

See Note J – “Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net” and Note D – “Discontinued Operations and Other Divestitures” in the Notes 
to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

42

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – Our policy is to assess the realizability of our long-lived assets, including definite-lived 
intangible assets, and to evaluate such assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying 
amount of such assets (or group of assets) may not be recoverable.  Impairment is determined to exist if estimated future undiscounted 
cash flows are less than carrying value.  If an impairment is indicated, assets are written down to their fair value, which is typically 
determined by a discounted cash flow analysis.  Future cash flow projections include assumptions regarding future sales levels 
and the level of working capital needed to support the assets.  We use data developed by business segment management as well 
as macroeconomic data in making these calculations.  There are no assurances that future cash flow assumptions will be achieved.  
The amount of any impairment then recognized would be calculated as the difference between estimated fair value and carrying 
value of the asset.

Accrued Warranties – We record accruals for unasserted warranty claims based on our claim experience.  Warranty costs are 
accrued at the time revenue is recognized.  However, adjustments to the initial warranty accrual are recorded if actual claims 
experience indicates adjustments are necessary.  These warranty costs are based upon management’s assessment of past claims 
and current experience.  However, actual claims could be higher or lower than amounts estimated, as the amount and value of 
warranty claims are subject to variation as a result of many factors that cannot be predicted with certainty, including production 
quality issues, performance of new products, models and technology, changes in weather conditions for product operation, different 
uses for products and other similar factors.

Accrued Product Liability – We record accruals for product liability claims when deemed probable and estimable based on facts 
and circumstances and our prior claims experience.  Accruals for product liability claims are valued based upon our prior claims 
experience, including consideration of the jurisdiction, circumstances of the accident, type of loss or injury, identity of plaintiff, 
other potential responsible parties, analysis of outside legal counsel, analysis of internal product liability counsel and the experience 
of our product safety team.  Actual product liability costs could be different due to a number of variables such as the decisions of 
juries or judges.

Defined Benefit Plans – Pension benefits represent financial obligations that will be ultimately settled in the future with employees 
who meet eligibility requirements.  As of December 31, 2018, we maintained a nonqualified Supplemental Executive Retirement 
Plan (the “U.S. SERP”) for certain U.S. employees.  The U.S. SERP provides retirement benefits to certain senior executives of 
the Company and is unfunded.  Generally, the U.S. SERP provides a benefit based on average total compensation earned over a 
participant’s  final  five  years  of  employment  and  years  of  service  reduced  by  benefits  earned  under  any  Company  retirement 
program, excluding salary deferrals and matching contributions.  In addition, benefits are reduced by Social Security Primary 
Insurance Amounts attributable to Company contributions.  Participation in the U.S. SERP is frozen; however, eligible participants 
are credited with post-freeze service for purposes of determining vesting and the amount of benefits.

We maintain defined benefit plans in France, Germany, India, Switzerland and the U.K. for some of our subsidiaries.  The plans 
in France, Germany and India are unfunded plans.  The plan in the U.K. is frozen.  Participation in the German plans is frozen; 
however, eligible participants are credited with post-freeze service for purposes of determining vesting and the amount of benefits.  
For our operations in Italy, there are mandatory termination indemnity plans providing a benefit payable upon termination of 
employment in substantially all cases of termination.  We record this obligation based on the mandated requirements.  The measure 
of the current obligation is not dependent on the employees’ future service and therefore is measured at current value.

Plan  assets  consist  primarily  of  common  stocks,  bonds  and  short-term  cash  equivalent  funds.  For  non-U.S.  funded  plans, 
approximately 21% of the assets are in equity securities, 76% are in fixed income securities and 3% are in real estate investment
securities.  These allocations are reviewed periodically and updated to meet the long-term goals of the plans.

Determination of defined benefit pension and post-retirement plan obligations and their associated expenses requires use of actuarial 
valuations to estimate the benefits employees earn while working, as well as the present value of those benefits. We use the services 
of  independent  actuaries  to  assist  with  these  calculations.    Inherent  in  these  valuations  are  economic  assumptions,  including 
expected returns on plan assets, discount rates at which liabilities may be settled, rates of increase of health care costs, rates of 
future compensation increases as well as employee demographic assumptions such as retirement patterns, mortality and turnover.  
The actuarial assumptions used may differ materially from actual results due to changing market and economic conditions, higher 
or lower turnover rates, or longer or shorter life spans of participants.  Actual results that differ from the actuarial assumptions 
used are recorded as unrecognized gains and losses.  Unrecognized gains and losses that exceed 10% of the greater of the plan’s 
projected benefit obligations or the market-related value of assets are amortized to earnings over the shorter of the estimated future 
service period of the plan participants or the period until any anticipated final plan settlements.  The assumptions used in the 
actuarial models are evaluated periodically and are updated to reflect experience.  We believe the assumptions used in the actuarial 
calculations are reasonable and are within accepted practices in each of the respective geographic locations in which we operate.

43

Expected long-term rates of return on pension plan assets were 4.50% for the U.K. plan and 2.00% for the Swiss plan at December 31, 
2018.  Our strategy with regard to the investments in the pension plans is to earn a rate of return sufficient to match or exceed the 
long-term growth of pension liabilities.  The expected rate of return of plan assets represents an estimate of long-term returns on 
the investment portfolio.  These rates are determined annually by management based on a weighted average of current and historical 
market trends, historical portfolio performance and the portfolio mix of investments.  The expected long-term rate of return on 
plan assets at December 31 is used to measure the earnings effects for the subsequent year.  The difference between the expected 
return  and  the  actual  return  on  plan  assets  affects  the  calculated  value  of  plan  assets  and,  ultimately,  future  pension  expense 
(income).

The discount rates were 4.41% for the U.S. SERP and 0.95% to 10.71% with a weighted average of 2.39% for non-U.S. plans at 
December 31, 2018.  The discount rate enables us to estimate the present value of expected future cash flows on the measurement 
date.  The rate used reflects a rate of return on high-quality fixed income investments that match the duration of expected benefit 
payments at the December 31 measurement date.  The discount rate at December 31 is used to measure the year-end benefit 
obligations and the earnings effects on the subsequent year.  Typically, a higher discount rate decreases the present value of benefit 
obligations.

The U.S. SERP has an expected rate of compensation increase of 3.75%.  Our U.K. pension plan is frozen so there is no expected 
rate of compensation increase; however, other Non-U.S. plans’ expected rates of compensation increases were 1.00% to 10.00%
with a weighted average for all Non-U.S. plans of 0.98% at December 31, 2018.  These estimated annual compensation increases 
are determined by management every year and are based on historical trends and market indices.

We have recorded the underfunded status of our defined benefit pension plans as a liability and the unrecognized prior service 
costs and actuarial gains (losses) as an adjustment to Stockholders’ equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.  The net decrease 
in the liability and improved funded status of $10.5 million was due to changes in assumptions from the previous year, primarily 
increases in discount rates, and the positive effect of changes in foreign exchange rates, partially offset by losses incurred on our 
pension assets.

Actual results in any given year will often differ from actuarial assumptions because of demographic, economic and other factors.  
Market value of plan assets can change significantly in a relatively short period of time.  Additionally, the measurement of plan 
benefit obligations is sensitive to changes in interest rates.  As a result, if the equity market declines and/or interest rates decrease, 
the plans’ estimated benefit obligations could increase, causing an increase in liabilities and a reduction in Stockholders’ Equity.

We expect any future obligations under our plans that are not currently funded will be funded from future cash flows from operations.  
If our contributions are insufficient to adequately fund the plans to cover our future obligations, or if the performance of assets in 
our plans does not meet expectations, or if our assumptions are modified, contributions could be higher than expected, which 
would reduce cash available for our business.  Changes in U.S. or foreign laws governing these plans could require additional 
contributions.

Assumptions used in computing our net pension expense and projected benefit obligation have a significant effect on the amounts 
reported.  A 25 basis point change in each assumption below would have the following effects upon net pension expense and 
projected benefit obligation, respectively, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018:

Income Taxes – We estimate income taxes based on enacted tax laws in the various jurisdictions where we conduct business.  We 
recognize deferred income tax assets and liabilities, which represent future tax benefits or obligations of our legal entities.  These 
deferred income tax balances arise from temporary differences due to divergent treatment of certain items for accounting and 
income tax purposes.

We evaluate our deferred tax assets each period to ensure that estimated future taxable income will be sufficient in character, 
amount and timing to result in the use of our deferred tax assets.  “Character” refers to the type (ordinary income versus capital 
gain) as well as the source (foreign vs. domestic) of the income we generate.  “Timing” refers to the period in which future income 
is expected to be generated.  Timing is important because, in certain jurisdictions, net operating losses (“NOLs”) and other tax 
attributes expire if not used within an established statutory time frame.  Based on these evaluations, we have determined that it is 
more likely than not that expected future earnings will be sufficient to use most of our deferred tax assets.

We do not provide for income taxes or tax benefits on differences between financial reporting basis and tax basis of our non-U.S. 
subsidiaries where such differences are reinvested and, in our opinion, will continue to be indefinitely reinvested.  If earnings of 
foreign subsidiaries are not considered indefinitely reinvested, deferred U.S. income taxes, foreign income taxes, and foreign 
withholding taxes may have to be provided.  We do not record deferred income taxes on the temporary difference between the 
book and tax basis in domestic subsidiaries where permissible.  At this time, determination of the unrecognized deferred tax 
liabilities for temporary differences related to our investment in non-U.S. subsidiaries is not practicable. 

Judgments and estimates are required to determine tax expense and deferred tax valuation allowances and in assessing uncertain 
tax positions.  Tax returns are subject to audit and local taxing authorities could challenge tax-filing positions we take.  Our practice 
is to file income tax returns that conform to requirements of each jurisdiction and to record provisions for tax liabilities, including 
interest and penalties, in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.”  Given the continued changes and complexity in worldwide 
tax laws, coupled with our geographic scope and size there may be greater exposure to uncertain tax positions.  Given the subjective 
nature of applicable tax laws, results of an audit of some of our tax returns could have a significant impact on our financial 
statements.

On December 22, 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) to address the application of U.S. GAAP 
when a SEC registrant does not have the necessary information available, compiled, analyzed, or reviewed in sufficient detail to 
complete the accounting for certain income tax effects from the 2017 Federal Tax Act.  During the fourth quarter of 2017, we 
recorded provisional amounts for the effects of the 2017 Federal Tax Act pursuant to SAB 118.  We recorded measurement period 
adjustments  during  2018  which  did  not  have  material  effect  on  our  consolidated  financial  statements.   The  2017  provisional 
amounts were finalized in the fourth quarter of 2018.  See Note C - “Income Taxes,” in our Consolidated Financial Statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We are focused on generating cash and maintaining liquidity (cash and availability under our revolving line of credit) for the 
efficient operation of our business.  At December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $372.1 million and undrawn 
availability under our revolving line of credit of $363.0 million, giving us total liquidity of approximately $735 million.  During 
the year ended December 31, 2018, our liquidity decreased by approximately $345 million from December 31, 2017 primarily 
due to share repurchases of $425.0 million as part of our publicly announced plans and capital expenditures of $103.8 million, 
partially offset by cash provided by our operations of $94.2 million and an increase in the size of the revolving line of credit by 
$150 million.

Typically, we have invested our cash in a combination of highly rated, liquid money market funds and in short-term bank deposits 
with large, highly rated banks.  Our investment objective is to preserve capital and liquidity while earning a market rate of interest.

We seek to use cash held by our foreign subsidiaries to support our operations and continued growth plans outside and inside the 
United States through funding of capital expenditures, operating expenses or other similar cash needs of these operations.  Most 
of this cash could be used in the U.S., if necessary.  Cash repatriated to the U.S. could be subject to incremental foreign and state  
taxation.  We will continue to seek opportunities to tax-efficiently mobilize and redeploy funds.  There are no trends, demands or 
uncertainties as a result of the Company’s cash deployment strategies that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on us as 
a whole.

We generated $14.8 million in free cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2018.  Higher inventory levels, principally in AWP, 
and the timing of 301 tariff recoveries impacted free cash flow.  We are expecting to generate approximately $165 million of free 
cash flow in 2019.

Our main sources of funding are cash generated from operations, including cash generated from the sale of receivables, loans from 
our  bank  credit  facilities,  and  funds  raised  in  capital  markets.    Pursuant  to  terms  of  our  trade  accounts  receivable  factoring 
arrangements, during the year ended December 31, 2018, we sold, without recourse, approximately $940 million of trade accounts 
receivable to enhance our liquidity.  During the year ended December 31, 2018, we also sold approximately $291 million of sales-
type leases and commercial loans.

We believe cash generated from operations, including cash generated from the sale of receivables, together with access to our 
bank credit facilities and cash on hand, provide adequate liquidity to continue to support internal operating initiatives and meet 
our operating and debt service requirements for at least the next 12 months.  See Part I, Item 1A. – “Risk Factors” for a detailed 
description of the risks resulting from our debt and our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to operate our business.

46

Our ability to generate cash from operations is subject to numerous factors, including the following:

•  Many of our customers fund their purchases through third-party finance companies that extend credit based on the credit-
worthiness of customers and expected residual value of our equipment. Changes either in customers’ credit profile or 
used equipment values may affect the ability of customers to purchase equipment. There can be no assurance third-party 
finance companies will continue to extend credit to our customers as they have in the past.
•  As our sales change, the amount of working capital needed to support our business may change.
•  Our suppliers extend payment terms to us primarily based on our overall credit rating. Declines in our credit rating may 

• 

influence suppliers’ willingness to extend terms and in turn accelerate cash requirements of our business.
Sales of our products are subject to general economic conditions, weather, competition, translation effect of foreign 
currency exchange rate changes, and other factors that in many cases are outside our direct control. For example, during 
periods of economic uncertainty, our customers have delayed purchasing decisions, which reduces cash generated from 
operations.

•  Availability and utilization of other sources of liquidity such as trade receivables sales programs.

Working capital as a percent of trailing three month annualized net sales was 21.1% at December 31, 2018 compared to 21.7% at 
December 31, 2017.

The following tables show the calculation of our working capital in continuing operations and trailing three months annualized 
sales as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (in millions):

On January 31, 2017, we entered into a new credit agreement (as amended, the “2017 Credit Agreement”).  On August 17, 2017, 
we amended the 2017 Credit Agreement to lower our interest rate on the U.S. dollar senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan”) 
by 25 basis points.  On February 28, 2018, we again amended 2017 Credit Agreement to lower the interest rate on the Term Loan 
by an additional 25 basis points.  On April 10, 2018, we amended the 2017 Credit Agreement to increase the size of the revolving 
line of credit from $450 million to $600 million available through January 31, 2022.  The 2017 Credit Agreement allows unlimited 
incremental commitments, which may be extended at the option of existing or new lenders and can be in the form of revolving 
credit commitments, term loan commitments, or a combination of both, with incremental amounts in excess of $300 million 
requiring the Company to satisfy a senior secured leverage ratio contained in the 2017 Credit Agreement.  Interest rates charged 
under the revolving line of credit in the 2017 Credit Agreement are subject to adjustment based on our consolidated leverage ratio.  
The Term Loan bears interest at a rate of London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.00%, with a LIBOR floor of 0.75%.  
See Note M - “Long-Term Obligations,” in our Consolidated Financial Statements for information concerning the 2017 Credit 
Agreement.

Borrowings under our 2017 Credit Agreement U.S. dollar term loan were $391.4 million and there were $237.0 million revolving 
credit amounts outstanding as of December 31, 2018.  At December 31, 2018, the weighted average interest rate on our term loan 
was 4.50% and the weighted average interest rate on our revolving credit facility was 5.98%.

We manage our interest rate risk by maintaining a balance between fixed and floating rate debt, including the use of interest rate 
derivatives when appropriate.  Over the long term, we believe this mix will produce lower interest cost than a purely fixed rate 
mix while reducing interest rate risk.

47

Our investment in TFS financial services assets was approximately $185 million, net at December 31, 2018.  We remain focused 
on expanding financing solutions in key markets like the U.S. and Europe.  We also anticipate using TFS to drive incremental 
sales by increasing direct customer financing through TFS in certain instances.

In February 2015, we announced authorization by our Board of Directors for the repurchase of up to $200 million of our outstanding 
shares of common stock, of which approximately $131 million of this authorization was utilized prior to January 1, 2017.  In 
February 2017, we announced authorization by our Board of Directors for the repurchase of up to an additional $350 million of 
our outstanding shares of common stock.  In May 2017, we announced the completion of the February 2015 and February 2017 
authorizations and our Board of Directors had authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $280 million of our outstanding 
shares of common stock.  In September 2017, we announced the completion of the May 2017 authorization and subsequently that 
our Board of Directors had authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $225 million of our outstanding shares of common 
stock.  In February 2018, we announced authorization by our Board of Directors for the repurchase of up to an additional $325 
million of our outstanding shares of common stock.  In July 2018, we announced the completion of the February 2018 authorization 
and our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $300 million of our outstanding shares of common 
stock.  During the year ended December 31, 2018, we repurchased a total of 11.4 million shares for $425.0 million.  In each quarter 
of 2018, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.10 per share, which was paid to our shareholders.  In the first quarter 
of 2019, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.11 per share, to be paid on March 19, 2019 to all stockholders of record 
as of close of business on March 8, 2019.

Our ability to access capital markets to raise funds, through sale of equity or debt securities, is subject to various factors, some 
specific to us and others related to general economic and/or financial market conditions.  These include results of operations, 
projected operating results for future periods and debt to equity leverage.  Our ability to access capital markets is also subject to 
our  timely  filing  of  periodic  reports  with  the  SEC.  In  addition,  terms  of  our  bank  credit  facilities,  senior  notes  and  senior 
subordinated notes contain restrictions on our ability to make further borrowings and to sell substantial portions of our assets.

Cash Flows

Cash  provided  by  operations  was  $94.2  million  and  $153.0  million  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2018  and  2017, 
respectively.  The  decrease  was  primarily  due  to  higher  cash  used  in  working  capital,  partially  offset  by  increased  operating 
profitability.

Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $85.9 million, compared to $1,535.6 million of cash 
provided by investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2017.  Cash used in 2018 investing activities was primarily due 
to capital expenditures as we made strategic investment in the business.  Cash provided by investing activities in 2017 was primarily 
due to cash received from the sale of our MHPS business, including the subsequent sale of Konecranes shares.

Cash  used  in  financing  activities  was  $244.9  million  and  $1,606.5  million  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2018  and  2017, 
respectively.  The decrease was primarily due to redemption of our 6% Notes and 6-1/2% Notes and a reduction in term loans in 
the prior year, partially offset by the issuance of our 5-5/8% Notes in the prior year and lower share repurchases in the current 
year.

indebtedness that has fixed rates and the implied forward rates for term loan indebtedness as of December 31, 2018.

As of December 31, 2018, our liability for uncertain income tax positions was $4.0 million.  The amount of reasonably possible 
payments in 2019 related to our tax audits worldwide is not significant.  Payments may be made in part to mitigate the accrual of 
interest in connection with income tax audit assessments that may be issued and that we would contest, or may in part be made 
to settle the matter with tax authorities.  Due to the high degree of uncertainty regarding the timing of potential future cash flows 
associated with remaining liabilities, we are unable to make a reasonable estimate of the amount and period in which these remaining 
liabilities might be paid.

Additionally, at December 31, 2018, we had outstanding letters of credit that totaled $75.8 million and had issued $59.2 million
in credit guarantees of customer financing to purchase equipment.

We maintain defined benefit pension plans for some of our operations in the United States and Europe.  It is our policy to fund 
the retirement plans at the minimum level required by applicable regulations.  In 2018, we made cash contributions and payments 
to the retirement plans of $14 million, and we estimate that our retirement plan contributions will be approximately $9 million in 
2019.  Changes in market conditions, changes in our funding levels or actions by governmental agencies may result in accelerated 
funding requirements in future periods.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Guarantees

Our customers, from time to time, fund the acquisition of our equipment through third-party finance companies.  In certain instances, 
we may provide a credit guarantee to the finance company by which we agree to make payments to the finance company should 
the customer default.  Our maximum liability is generally limited to our customer’s remaining payments due to the finance company 
at the time of default.  In the event of a customer default, we are generally able to recover and dispose of the equipment at a 
minimal loss, if any, to us.

We issue, from time to time, residual value guarantees under sales-type leases.  A residual value guarantee involves a guarantee 
that a piece of equipment will have a minimum fair market value at a future date if certain conditions are met by the customer.  
We are generally able to mitigate some risk associated with these guarantees because maturity of guarantees is staggered, which 
limits the amount of used equipment entering the marketplace at any one time.

There can be no assurance our historical experience in used equipment markets will be indicative of future results.  Our ability to 
recover losses from our guarantees may be affected by economic conditions in used equipment markets at the time of loss.

See Note Q – “Litigation and Contingencies” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding 
our guarantees.

CONTINGENCIES AND UNCERTAINTIES

Foreign Exchange and Interest Rate Risk

Our products are sold in over 100 countries around the world and, accordingly, our revenues are generated in foreign currencies, 
while costs associated with those revenues are only partly incurred in the same currencies.  We enter into foreign exchange contracts 
to manage variability of future cash flows associated with recognized assets or liabilities or forecasted transactions due to changing 
currency exchange rates.  Primary currencies to which we are exposed are the Euro, British Pound and Australian Dollar.  See 
Risk Factor entitled, “We are subject to currency fluctuations.” in Part I, Item 1A. for further information on our foreign exchange 
risk.

We manage exposure to interest rates by incurring a mix of indebtedness bearing interest at both floating and fixed rates at inception 
and maintaining an ongoing balance between floating and fixed rates on this mix of indebtedness using interest rate swaps when 
necessary.

See Note K - “Derivative Financial Instruments” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information 
about our derivatives and Item 7A. – “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for a discussion of the impact 
that changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates may have on our financial performance.

49

Other

We are subject to a number of contingencies and uncertainties including, without limitation, product liability claims, workers’ 
compensation  liability,  intellectual  property  litigation,  self-insurance  obligations,  tax  examinations,  guarantees,  class  action 
lawsuits and other matters.  See Note Q – “Litigation and Contingencies” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 
for more information concerning contingencies and uncertainties, including our securities and stockholder derivative lawsuits, 
and our proceedings involving certain former shareholders of Demag Cranes AG.  We are insured for product liability, general 
liability, workers’ compensation, employer’s liability, property damage, intellectual property and other insurable risks required by 
law or contract with retained liability to us or deductibles.  Many of the exposures are unasserted or proceedings are at a preliminary 
stage, and it is not presently possible to estimate the amount or timing of any liability.  However, we do not believe these contingencies 
and uncertainties will, individually or in aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our operations.  For contingencies and 
uncertainties other than income taxes, when it is probable that a loss will be incurred and possible to make reasonable estimates 
of our liability with respect to such matters, a provision is recorded for the amount of such estimate or for the minimum amount 
of a range of estimates when it is not possible to estimate the amount within the range that is most likely to occur.

See Part I, Item 1. – “Business – Safety and Environmental Considerations” for additional discussion of safety and environmental 
items.

ITEM 7A. 

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We  are  exposed  to  certain  market  risks  that  exist  as  part  of  our  ongoing  business  operations  and  we  use  derivative  financial 
instruments, where appropriate, to manage these risks.  As a matter of policy, we do not engage in trading or speculative transactions.  
For  further  information  on  accounting  related  to  derivative  financial  instruments,  refer  to  Note  K  –  “Derivative  Financial 
Instruments” in our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Our products are sold in over 100 countries around the world.  The reporting currency for our consolidated financial statements 
is the U.S. dollar.  Certain of our assets, liabilities, expenses, revenues and earnings are denominated in other countries’ currencies, 
including the Euro, British Pound and Australian dollar.  Those assets, liabilities, expenses, revenues and earnings are translated 
into U.S. dollars at the applicable exchange rates to prepare our consolidated financial statements.  Therefore, increases or decreases 
in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and those other currencies affect the value of those items as reflected in our consolidated 
financial statements, even if their value remains unchanged in their original currency.  Due to the continued volatility of foreign 
currency exchange rates to the U.S. dollar, fluctuations in currency exchange rates may have an impact on the accuracy of our 
financial guidance. Such fluctuations in foreign currency rates relative to the U.S. dollar may cause our actual results to differ 
materially from those anticipated in our guidance and have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations.  We 
note that the upcoming withdrawal of the U.K. from the E.U. may negatively impact the value of the British Pound as compared 
to the U.S. dollar and other currencies as the U.K. negotiates and executes its exit from the E.U., which is currently expected to 
occur on March 29, 2019.  We assess foreign currency risk based on transactional cash flows, identify naturally offsetting positions 
and purchase hedging instruments to partially offset anticipated exposures. 

At December 31, 2018, we performed a sensitivity analysis on the impact that aggregate changes in the translation effect of foreign 
currency exchange rate changes would have on our operating income.  Based on this sensitivity analysis, we have determined that 
a change in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies by 10% to amounts already incorporated in the financial 
statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 would have an impact of approximately $20 million on the translation effect of 
foreign currency exchange rate changes already included in our reported operating income for the period.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate volatility with regard to future issuances of fixed rate debt and existing issuances of variable rate 
debt.  Primary exposure includes movements in the U.S. prime rate and LIBOR.  We manage interest rate risk by establishing a 
mix of indebtedness bearing interest at both floating and fixed rates at inception and maintain an ongoing balance between floating 
and fixed rates on this mix of indebtedness using interest rate swaps when necessary.  At December 31, 2018, approximately 51%
of our debt was floating rate debt and the weighted average interest rate for all debt was 5.27%.

At December 31, 2018, we performed a sensitivity analysis for our derivatives and other financial instruments that have interest 
rate risk.  We calculated the pretax earnings effect on our interest sensitive instruments.  Based on this sensitivity analysis, we 
have determined that an increase of 10% in our average floating interest rates at December 31, 2018 would have increased interest 
expense by approximately $3 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.

50

Commodities Risk

In the absence of labor strikes or other unusual circumstances, substantially all materials and components are normally available 
from multiple suppliers.  However, certain of our businesses receive materials and components from a single source supplier, 
although alternative suppliers of such materials may be generally available.  Delays in our suppliers’ abilities, especially any sole 
suppliers for a particular business, to provide us with necessary materials and components may delay production at a number of 
our manufacturing locations, or may require us to seek alternative supply sources.  Delays in obtaining supplies may result from 
a number of factors affecting our suppliers, including capacity constraints, labor disputes, suppliers’ impaired financial condition, 
suppliers’ allocations to other purchasers, weather emergencies or acts of war or terrorism.  Any delay in receiving supplies could 
impair our ability to deliver products to our customers and, accordingly, could have a material adverse effect on our business, 
results of operations and financial condition.  Current and potential suppliers are evaluated regularly on their ability to meet our 
requirements and standards.  We actively manage our material supply sourcing, and employ various methods to limit risk associated 
with commodity cost fluctuations and availability.  We design and implement plans to mitigate the impact of these risks by using 
alternate suppliers, expanding our supply base globally, leveraging our overall purchasing volumes to obtain favorable pricing 
and quantities, developing a closer working relationship with key suppliers and purchasing hedging instruments to partially offset 
anticipated exposures.  One key element of our Execute to Win strategy is to focus on strategic sourcing to gain efficiencies using 
our global purchasing power, which includes building a global sourcing organization and standardizing our sourcing processes 
across our businesses.

Principal materials and components used in our various manufacturing processes include steel, castings, engines, tires, hydraulics, 
cylinders, drive trains, electric controls and motors, and a variety of other commodities and fabricated or manufactured items.  
Increases in the cost of these materials and components may affect our financial performance.  If we are not able to recover 
increased raw material or component costs from our customers, our margins could be adversely affected.  During 2018, unfavorable 
input cost changes in some areas, largely related to steel prices and Section 301 tariffs, were only modestly offset by favorable 
changes in other areas.  Steel prices in the United States rose considerably starting in the first quarter of 2018.  While prices for 
hot rolled coil steel appear to be trending downward, steel plate prices remain elevated due in large part to the U.S. Commerce 
Department’s decision to levy tariffs on certain steel and aluminum imports.  In order to offset higher input costs, we implemented 
steel surcharges on many of our products in the first quarter and continued to apply these surcharges throughout 2018.  Another 
inflationary pressure on input costs is incremental Section 301 tariffs of 25% on certain Chinese origin goods.  We are utilizing 
the duty drawback mechanism to offset some of the direct impact of these tariffs; however, the indirect impact of the inflationary 
pressure on costs throughout the supply chain is leading to higher input costs.  We will continue to monitor international trade 
policy and will make adjustments to our supply base where possible to mitigate the impact on our costs.  For more information 
on commodities risk, see Part I, Item 1A. – Risk Factors.

ITEM 9A. 

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports 
we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and 
reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated 
to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow 
timely decisions regarding required financial disclosure.  In connection with the preparation of this Annual Report on Form 10-
K, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the 
CEO and CFO, as of December 31, 2018, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, 
as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act.  Based upon this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded 
that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2018.

MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company, 
as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Our internal control over financial reporting is 
a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial 
statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Internal control over 
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, 
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; provide reasonable assurance transactions are recorded 
as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that 
our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and provide 
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that 
could have a material effect on our financial statements.  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.

Management has conducted an assessment, including testing, of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting 
as of December 31, 2018.  In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management used the criteria 
in Internal  Control  —  Integrated  Framework  (2013) issued  by  the  Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  of  the Treadway 
Commission.  Based on this assessment, the Company’s management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2018, the Company’s 
internal control over financial reporting was effective.

The  effectiveness  of  our  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  of  December 31,  2018  has  been  audited  by 
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears in this 
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the 
Exchange Act) that occurred during our quarter ended December 31, 2018, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely 
to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The effectiveness of any system of controls and procedures is subject to certain limitations, and, as a result, there can be no 
assurance that our controls and procedures will detect all errors or fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and 
operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be attained.

During 2018, we performed a technical upgrade to our main enterprise resource planning system and implemented a new financial 
consolidation and reporting system.  We updated our internal controls over financial reporting, as necessary, to accommodate 
modifications to our business processes and accounting procedures.  We continued our effort to implement a new global lease 
accounting system.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Terex Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of 
December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income (loss), comprehensive income (loss), changes in 
stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, including the related notes 
and  financial  statement  schedule  listed  in  the  accompanying  index  (collectively  referred  to  as  the  “consolidated  financial 
statements”).  We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on 
criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of 
the Treadway Commission (COSO).  

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position 
of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years 
in the period ended December 31, 2018 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  
Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of 
December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.  

Basis for Opinions

The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control 
over  financial  reporting,  and  for  its  assessment  of  the  effectiveness  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting,  included  in 
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A.  Our responsibility is to 
express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting 
based on our audits.  We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United 
States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities 
laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the 
audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether 
due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.  

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement 
of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.  
Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial 
statements.  Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, 
as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.  Our audit of internal control over financial 
reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness 
exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.  Our audits 
also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.  We believe that our audits 
provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability 
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted 
accounting principles.  A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain 
to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets 
of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial 
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are 
being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable 
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that 
could have a material effect on the financial statements.

F-2

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.

TEREX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Principles of Consolidation.  The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Terex Corporation, its majority-
owned subsidiaries and other controlled subsidiaries (“Terex” or the “Company”).  The Company consolidates all majority-owned 
and controlled subsidiaries, applies the equity method of accounting for investments in which the Company is able to exercise 
significant influence, and applies the cost method for all other investments.  All intercompany balances, transactions and profits 
have been eliminated.  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 2018 presentation.

Use of Estimates.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. 
GAAP”)  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  and 
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and 
expenses during the reporting period.  Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents.  Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or 
less.  The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair value.  Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 
2018 and 2017 include $13.1 million and $5.0 million, respectively, which were not immediately available for use.  These consist 
primarily of cash balances held in escrow to secure various obligations of the Company.  There were no cash and cash equivalents 
held for sale at December 31, 2018 and 2017 which were not immediately available for use.

The following table provides amounts of cash and cash equivalents presented in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (in 
millions):

Inventories.  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value (“NRV”).  Cost is determined by the average cost 
and first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) methods (approximately 11% and 89%, respectively).  In valuing inventory, the Company is required 
to make assumptions regarding the level of reserves required to value potentially obsolete or over-valued items at the lower of 
cost or NRV.  These assumptions require the Company to analyze aging of and forecasted demand for its inventory, forecasted 
future product sales prices, pricing trends and margins, and to make judgments and estimates regarding obsolete or excess inventory.  
Future product sales prices, pricing trends and margins are based on the best available information at that time including actual 
orders received, negotiations with the Company’s customers for future orders, including their plans for expenditures, and market 
trends for similar products.  The Company’s judgments and estimates for excess or obsolete inventory are based on analysis of 
actual and forecasted usage.  The valuation of used equipment taken in trade from customers requires the Company to use the best 
information available to determine the value of the equipment to potential customers.  This value is subject to change based on 
numerous conditions. Inventory reserves are established taking into account age, frequency of use, or sale, and in the case of repair 
parts, installed base of machines.  While calculations are made involving these factors, significant management judgment regarding 
expectations for future events is involved.  Future events that could significantly influence the Company’s judgment and related 
estimates  include  general  economic  conditions  in  markets  where  the  Company’s  products  are  sold,  new  equipment  price 
fluctuations, actions of the Company’s competitors, including introduction of new products and technological advances, as well 
as new products and design changes the Company introduces.  The Company makes adjustments to its inventory reserves based 
on the identification of specific situations and increases its inventory reserves accordingly.  As further changes in future economic 
or industry conditions occur, the Company may revise estimates that were used to calculate its inventory reserves.  At December 31, 
2018  and  2017,  reserves  for  lower  of  cost  or  NRV,  excess  and  obsolete  inventory  totaled  $78.8  million  and  $85.8  million, 
respectively.

F-9

 
 
 
If actual conditions are less favorable than those the Company has projected, the Company will increase its reserves for lower of 
cost or NRV, excess and obsolete inventory accordingly.  Any increase in the Company’s reserves will adversely impact its results 
of operations.  Establishment of a reserve for lower of cost or NRV, excess and obsolete inventory establishes a new cost basis in 
the inventory.  Such reserves are not reduced until the product is sold.

Shipping and handling costs for product shipments to customers are recorded in Cost of goods sold (“COGS”).

Debt Issuance Costs.  Debt issuance costs incurred in securing the Company’s financing arrangements are capitalized and amortized 
over the term of the associated debt.  Debt issuance costs related to senior notes and term loans are presented in the balance sheet 
as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the borrowing, consistent with debt discounts.  Debt issuance costs related to 
securing the Company’s revolving line of credit are presented in Other assets.  Debt issuance costs related to debt that is extinguished 
early are charged to expense at the time of retirement. Debt issuance costs were $19.0 million and $22.2 million (net of accumulated 
amortization of $7.6 million and $3.6 million) at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Intangible  Assets.   Intangible  assets  include  purchased  patents,  trademarks,  customer  relationships  and  other  specifically 
identifiable assets and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the respective estimated useful lives, which range from one to 
ninety-nine years.  Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when circumstances warrant.

Goodwill.  Goodwill, representing the difference between total purchase price and fair value of assets (tangible and intangible) 
and liabilities at the date of acquisition, is reviewed for impairment annually, and more frequently as circumstances warrant, and 
written down only in the period in which the recorded value of such assets and liabilities exceeds fair value.  The Company selected 
October 1 as the date for the required annual impairment test.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or a component of an 
operating segment that constitutes a business for which discrete financial information with similar economic characteristics is 
available and operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker.  The Company has three 
reportable segments: Aerial Work Platforms (“AWP”), Cranes and Materials Processing (“MP”).  All operating segments are 
comprised of one reporting unit.  Only AWP and MP goodwill is tested for impairment as Cranes goodwill was fully impaired in 
2016.

The Company may elect to perform a qualitative analysis for our reporting units to determine whether it is more likely than not 
that fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying value.  If the qualitative analysis indicates that it is more likely than 
not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, or if the Company elects not to perform a qualitative 
analysis, the Company performs a quantitative analysis to determine whether a goodwill impairment exists.

The quantitative goodwill impairment analysis is used to identify potential impairment by comparing fair value of a reporting unit 
with its carrying amount.  The Company uses an income approach, along with other relevant market information, derived from a 
discounted cash flow model to estimate fair value of its reporting units.  The aggregate fair value of the Company’s reporting units 
is compared to the Company’s market capitalization on the valuation date to assess its reasonableness.  Initial recognition of 
goodwill, as well as the annual review of carrying value of goodwill, requires that the Company develop estimates of future 
business performance.  These estimates are used to derive expected cash flows and include assumptions regarding future sales 
levels and the level of working capital needed to support a given business.  The Company relies on data developed by business 
segment management as well as macroeconomic data in making these calculations. The discounted cash flow model also includes 
a determination of the Company’s weighted average cost of capital by reporting unit.  Cost of capital is based on assumptions 
about interest rates as well as a risk-adjusted rate of return required by the Company’s equity investors.  Changes in these estimates 
can impact present value of expected cash flows used in determining fair value of a reporting unit.  An impairment charge for the 
amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, if any, would be recognized.  The loss recognized 
would not exceed total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

The Company performed its annual impairment test performed as of October 1, 2018, 2017 and 2016.  The Company recorded a 
non-cash charge of $176.0 million in our Cranes segment during the year ended December 31, 2016.  There were no goodwill 
impairment charges recorded during 2018 and 2017.  See Note D – “Discontinued Operations and Other Divestitures” and Note 
J – “Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net”.

Property,  Plant  and  Equipment.   Property,  plant  and  equipment  are  stated  at  cost.   Expenditures  for  major  renewals  and 
improvements are capitalized while expenditures for maintenance and repairs not expected to extend the life of an asset beyond 
its normal useful life are charged to expense when incurred.  Plant and equipment are depreciated over the estimated useful lives 
(1-40 years and 2-20 years, respectively) of the assets under the straight-line method of depreciation for financial reporting purposes 
and both straight-line and other methods for tax purposes.

F-10

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.  The Company’s policy is to assess the realizability of its long-lived assets, including definite-
lived intangible assets, and to evaluate such assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the 
carrying amount of such assets (or group of assets) may not be recoverable.  Impairment is determined to exist if estimated future 
undiscounted cash flows are less than carrying value.  If an impairment is indicated, assets are written down to their fair value, 
which is typically determined by a discounted cash flow analysis.  Future cash flow projections include assumptions regarding 
future sales levels and the level of working capital needed to support the assets.  The Company uses data developed by business 
segment management as well as macroeconomic data in making these calculations.  There are no assurances that future cash flow 
assumptions will be achieved.  The amount of any impairment then recognized would be calculated as the difference between 
estimated fair value and carrying value of the asset.  Included in Selling, general & administrative expenses (“SG&A”) are $9.0 
million, $6.8 million and $41.2 million of asset impairments for the year ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  
The impairment charges recognized during 2016 include a $16.6 million charge in Corporate and Other to write off information 
technology assets related to cessation of implementation efforts in several locations and $17.4 million in the Company’s Cranes 
segment for restructuring and facility exit activities.  In 2016, the Company also recorded a $20.5 million impairment charge in 
Other income (expense) - net to recognize impairment of a cost-basis investment.  See Note L – “Restructuring and Other Charges” 
for information on asset impairments recorded as part of restructuring activities.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.  Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and 
do not bear interest.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses 
in its existing accounts receivable.  The Company determines the allowance based on historical customer review and current 
financial conditions.  The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts at least quarterly.  Account balances are charged 
off against the allowance when the Company determines it is probable the receivable will not be recovered.  There can be no 
assurance that the Company’s historical accounts receivable collection experience will be indicative of future results.  The Company 
has off-balance sheet credit exposure related to guarantees provided to financial institutions as disclosed in Note Q – “Litigation 
and Contingencies.”  Substantially all receivables were trade receivables at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

Pursuant to terms of the Company’s trade accounts receivable factoring arrangements, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries may 
sell their trade accounts receivable.  In certain cases, the Company continues to service such accounts.  These trade receivables 
qualify for sales treatment under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 860, “Transfers and Servicing” (“ASC 860”) and 
accordingly, the proceeds are included in net cash provided by operating activities.  The gross amount of trade receivables sold 
for years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 totaled $940.1 million, $631.1 million and $620.4 million, respectively.  The 
factoring  discount  paid  upon  sale  is  recorded  as  interest  expense  in  the  Consolidated  Statement  of  Income  (Loss).   As  of 
December 31, 2018 and 2017, $85.1 million and $85.2 million, respectively, of receivables qualifying for sale treatment and 
continuing to be serviced by the Company were outstanding.

Revenue Recognition.  The Company recognizes revenue when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that 
reflects the consideration which it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.  In determining when and how 
revenue is recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis: (i) identification 
of contract with customer; (ii) determination of performance obligations; (iii) measurement of the transaction price; (iv) allocation 
of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each 
performance obligation.

In the United States, we have the ability to enter into a security agreement and receive a security interest in the product by filing 
an appropriate Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) financing statement.  However, a significant portion of our revenue is generated 
outside of the United States.  In many countries outside of the United States, as a matter of statutory law, a seller retains title to a 
product until payment is made.  The laws do not provide for a seller’s retention of a security interest in goods in the same manner 
as established in the UCC.  In these countries, we retain title to goods delivered to a customer until the customer makes payment 
so that we can recover the goods in the event of customer default on payment.  The Company considers the following events in 
order to determine when it is appropriate to recognize revenue: (i) the customer has physical possession of the product; (ii) the 
customer has legal title to the product; (iii) the customer has assumed the risks and rewards of ownership and (iv) the customer 
has communicated acceptance of the product.  These events serve as indicators, along with the details contained within the contract, 
that it is appropriate to recognize revenue.

F-11

The Company generates revenue through the sale of machines, parts and service, and extended warranties.  Revenue from product 
sales is recorded when the performance obligation is fulfilled, usually at the time of shipment, at the net sales price (transaction 
price).  Estimates of variable consideration, such as volume discounts and rebates, reduce transaction price when it is probable 
that a customer will attain these types of sales incentives.  These estimates are primarily derived from contractual terms and 
historical experience.  The Company elected to present revenue net of sales tax and other similar taxes and account for shipping 
and handling as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer goods rather than separate performance obligations.  Payments are 
typically due either 30 or 60 days, depending on geography, following delivery of products or completion of services.

Revenue from extended warranties is recognized over time on a straight line basis because the customer benefits evenly from the 
extended warranty throughout the period; beginning upon expiration of the standard warranty and through end of the term.  Revenue 
from services is recognized based on cost input method as the time and materials used in the repair portrays the most accurate 
depiction of completion of the performance obligation.  During the full year ended December 31, 2018, revenues generated from 
the sale of extended warranties and services were an immaterial portion of revenue.

The Company sells equipment subject to leases and related lease payments. Income from operating leases is recognized ratably 
over the lease term.  Revenue from sales-type leases is recognized at the inception of the lease.

For detailed sales information see Note B - “Business Segment Information”.

Guarantees.  The Company records a liability for the estimated fair value of guarantees issued pursuant to ASC 460.  The Company 
recognizes a loss under a guarantee when its obligation to make payment under the guarantee is probable and the amount of the 
loss can be estimated.  A loss would be recognized if the Company’s payment obligation under the guarantee exceeds the value it 
can expect to recover to offset such payment, primarily through the sale of the equipment underlying the guarantee.

Accrued Warranties.  The Company records accruals for potential warranty claims based on its claim experience.  The Company’s 
products are typically sold with a standard warranty covering defects that arise during a fixed period.  Each business provides a 
warranty specific to the products it offers.  The specific warranty offered by a business is a function of customer expectations and 
competitive forces.  Warranty length is generally a fixed period of time, a fixed number of operating hours, or both.

A liability for estimated warranty claims is accrued at the time of sale.  The non-current portion of the warranty accrual is included 
in Other non-current liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.  The liability is established using historical warranty 
claims experience for each product sold.  Historical claims experience may be adjusted for known design improvements or for 
the impact of unusual product quality issues.  Warranty reserves are reviewed quarterly to ensure critical assumptions are updated 
for known events that may affect the potential warranty liability.

Accrued Product Liability.  The Company records accruals for product liability claims when deemed probable and estimable 
based on facts and circumstances, and prior claims experience.  Accruals for product liability claims are valued based upon the 
Company’s prior claims experience, including consideration of jurisdiction, circumstances of the accident, type of loss or injury, 
identity of plaintiff, other potential responsible parties, analysis of outside legal counsel, analysis of internal product liability 
counsel and experience of the Company’s product safety employees.  Actual product liability costs could be different due to a 
number of variables such as the decisions of juries or judges.

F-12

Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post-retirement Benefits.  The Company provides post-retirement benefits to certain former 
salaried and hourly employees and certain hourly employees covered by bargaining unit contracts that provide such benefits.  The 
Company accounts for these benefits under ASC 715, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits” (“ASC 715”).  ASC 715 requires 
balance sheet recognition of the overfunded or underfunded status of pension and post-retirement benefit plans.  Under ASC 715, 
actuarial gains and losses, prior service costs or credits, and any remaining transition assets or obligations that have not been 
recognized under previous accounting standards must be recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax 
effects, until they are amortized as a component of net periodic benefit cost.  See Note O – “Retirement Plans and Other Benefits.”

Deferred Compensation.  The Company maintains a deferred compensation plan, which is described more fully in Note O – 
“Retirement Plans and Other Benefits.”  The Company’s common stock held in a rabbi trust pursuant to the Company’s deferred 
compensation  plan,  is  treated  in  a  manner  similar  to  treasury  stock  and  is  recorded  at  cost  within  Stockholders’  equity  as  of 
December 31, 2018 and 2017.  The plan obligations for participant deferrals in common stock are classified as Additional paid-
in capital and deferrals in the bond fund investment are classified as Accrued compensation and benefits and Other non-current 
liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.  The total of common stock required to settle this deferred compensation obligation 
is included in the denominator in both basic and diluted earnings per share calculations.

Stock-Based Compensation.  At December 31, 2018, the Company had stock-based employee compensation plans, which are 
described  more  fully  in  Note  P  –  “Stockholders’  Equity.”  The  Company  accounts  for  those  plans  under  the  recognition  and 
measurement principles of ASC 718, “Compensation–Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”).  ASC 718 requires that expense resulting 
from  all  share-based  payment  transactions  be  recognized  in  the  financial  statements  at  fair  value.   The  Company  recognizes 
forfeitures as they occur.

Foreign Currency Translation.  Assets and liabilities of the Company’s non-U.S. operations are translated at year-end exchange 
rates.  Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the year.  For operations whose functional currency 
is  the  local  currency,  translation  adjustments  are  recorded  in  the Accumulated  other  comprehensive  income  component  of 
Stockholders’ equity.  Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are recorded in the accounts based on the 
underlying transaction.

Derivatives.  Derivative financial instruments are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at their fair value as either assets 
or liabilities.  Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded each period in earnings or Accumulated other comprehensive 
income, depending on whether a derivative is designated and effective as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is, the type of hedge 
transaction.  Gains and losses on derivative instruments reported in Accumulated other comprehensive income are included in 
earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged item.  See Note K – “Derivative Financial Instruments.”

Environmental Policies.  Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are either expensed or capitalized depending 
on the nature of the expenditure.  Expenditures relating to conditions caused by past operations that do not contribute to current 
or future revenue generation are expensed.  Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial actions are 
probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated.  Such amounts were not material at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

Research, Development and Engineering Costs.  Research, development and engineering costs are expensed as incurred.  Such 
costs  incurred  in  the  development  of  new  products  or  significant  improvements  to  existing  products  are  included  in  SG&A.  
Research, development and engineering costs were $92.7 million, $81.0 million and $86.2 million during 2018, 2017 and 2016, 
respectively.

Income Taxes.  The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method.  This method requires the recognition 
of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between financial statement 
carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities.  See Note C – “Income Taxes.”

Earnings Per Share.  Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing Net income (loss) attributable to Terex Corporation 
for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share is 
computed by dividing Net income (loss) attributable to Terex Corporation for the period by the weighted average number of shares 
of common stock outstanding and potential dilutive common shares.  See Note E – “Earnings Per Share.”

F-13

Fair Value Measurements.  Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis under the provisions of ASC 820,  
“Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure” (“ASC 820”), include foreign exchange contracts, cross currency and commodity swaps 
and a debt conversion feature on a convertible promissory note discussed in Note K – “Derivative Financial Instruments”, debt 
discussed in Note M – “Long-Term Obligations” and defined benefit plan assets discussed in Note O – “Retirement Plans and 
Other Benefits”.  These instruments are valued using a market approach, which uses prices and other relevant information generated 
by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.  ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for those 
instruments measured at fair value that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the 
Company’s assumptions (unobservable inputs).  The hierarchy consists of three levels:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted 
assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for 
substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and 
unobservable (i.e. supported by little or no market activity).

Determining which category an asset or liability falls within this hierarchy requires judgment.  The Company evaluates its hierarchy 
disclosures each quarter.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards 

Accounting Standards Implemented in 2018

In  May  2014,  the  Financial Accounting  Standards  Board  (“FASB”)  issued Accounting  Standard  Update  (“ASU”)  2014-09, 
“Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” (“ASU 2014-09”).  ASU 2014-09 outlines a new, single comprehensive 
model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue 
recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance.  This new revenue recognition model provides a five-step analysis in 
determining when and how revenue is recognized.  The new model requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised 
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive.  ASU 2014-09 also 
requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer 
contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill 
a contract.  Subsequently, the FASB issued the following standards related to ASU 2014-09:  ASU 2016-08, “Revenue from 
Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net),” (“ASU 
2016-08”); ASU  2016-10,  “Revenue  from  Contracts  with  Customers  (Topic  606),  Identifying  Performance  Obligations  and 
Licensing,” (“ASU 2016-10”); ASU 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Narrow-Scope Improvements 
and Practical Expedients,” (“ASU 2016-12”); and ASU 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue 
from Contracts with Customers,” (“ASU 2016-20”), which provided additional guidance and clarity to ASU 2014-09 (collectively, 
the “New Revenue Standards”).  The Company adopted the New Revenue Standards on January 1, 2018 using the modified 
retrospective approach and elected the significant financing component and costs of obtaining a contract practical expedients.  
Adoption of the New Revenue Standards did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.  The 
Company’s revenue recognition policy adopted as a result of the New Revenue Standards is presented above.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement 
of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities," (“ASU 2016-01”).  The amendments in ASU 2016-01, among other things, require 
equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the 
investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; require public business entities to use 
the exit price notion when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; require separate presentation of 
financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  by  measurement  category  and  form  of  financial  asset  (i.e.,  securities  or  loans  and 
receivables); and eliminate the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used 
to estimate fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost.  The Company adopted 
ASU 2016-01 on January 1, 2018.  Adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In  October  2016,  the  FASB  issued ASU  2016-16,  “Income  Taxes  (Topic  740)  -  Intra-Entity  Transfer  of Assets  Other  than 
Inventory,” (“ASU 2016-16”).  ASU 2016-16 requires recognition of current and deferred income taxes resulting from an intra-
entity transfer of any asset (excluding inventory) when the transfer occurs.  This is a change from existing U.S. generally accepted 
accounting principles which prohibits recognition of current and deferred income taxes until the asset is sold to a third party.  The 
Company adopted ASU 2016-16 on January 1, 2018.  Adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated 
financial statements.

F-14

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Restricted Cash,” (“ASU 2016-18”).  
ASU 2016-18 requires a statement of cash flows to explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and 
amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents.  Amounts generally described as restricted cash and 
restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-
of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows.  The Company adopted ASU 2016-18 on January 1, 2018.  Adoption 
did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In  January  2017,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  2017-01,  “Business  Combinations  (Topic  805):  Clarifying  the  Definition  of  a 
Business,” (“ASU 2017-01”).  ASU 2017-01 provides guidance in ascertaining whether a collection of assets and activities is 
considered a business.  The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 on January 1, 2018.  Adoption did not have a material effect on the 
Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill 
Impairment,” (“ASU 2017-04”).  ASU 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity should 
perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An 
entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, 
if any. The loss recognized should not exceed total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity 
should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring 
goodwill impairment.  The Company early adopted ASU 2017-04 on January 1, 2018.  Adoption did not have a material effect on 
the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, “Other Income-Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial 
Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial 
Assets,” (“ASU 2017-05”).  ASU 2017-05 is meant to clarify the scope of ASC Subtopic 610-20, “Other Income-Gains and Losses 
from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets” and to add guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets.  The Company adopted 
ASU 2017-05 on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach.  Adoption did not have a material effect on the 
Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation 
of  Net  Periodic  Pension  Cost  and  Net  Periodic  Postretirement  Benefit  Cost,”  (“ASU  2017-07”). ASU  2017-07  changes  how 
employers that sponsor defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement plans present net periodic benefit cost in the income 
statement.  An employer is required to report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation 
costs arising from services rendered by pertinent employees during the period.  Other components of net benefit cost are required 
to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations.  
The amendment also allows only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization, when applicable.  The Company 
adopted ASU 2017-07 on January 1, 2018.  Adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial 
statements.

In  May  2017,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  2017-09,  “Compensation-Stock  Compensation  (Topic  718):  Scope  of  Modification 
Accounting,” (“ASU 2017-09”).  ASU 2017-09 clarifies when changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award 
must be accounted for as modifications.  The new guidance reduces diversity in practice and results in fewer changes to the terms 
of an award being accounted for as modifications.  Under ASU 2017-09, an entity will not apply modification accounting to a 
share-based payment award if the award’s fair value, vesting conditions and classification as an equity or liability instrument are 
the same immediately before and after the change.  The Company adopted ASU 2017-09 on January 1, 2018.  Adoption did not 
have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting 
for Hedging Activities,” (“ASU 2017-12”). ASU 2017-12 expands an entity’s ability to apply hedge accounting for nonfinancial 
and financial risk components and allows for a simplified approach for fair value hedging of interest rate risk.  ASU 2017-12 
eliminates the need to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and generally requires the entire change in fair value 
of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item.  Additionally, ASU 2017-12 simplifies 
the hedge documentation and effectiveness assessment requirements under the previous guidance.  During the third quarter of 
2018, the Company early adopted ASU 2017-12 effective January 1, 2018.  Adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s 
consolidated financial statements.

F-15

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-03, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments - Overall 
(Subtopic 825-10) Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” (“ASU 2018-3”).  ASU 2018-03 
clarifies certain aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2016-01.  During the second quarter of 2018, the Company early adopted 
ASU  2018-03  effective  January  1,  2018.   Adoption  did  not  have  a  material  effect  on  the  Company’s  consolidated  financial 
statements.

Accounting Standards to be Implemented

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” (“ASU 2016-02”).  The new standard establishes a right-
of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to recognize an ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with 
a term longer than 12 months and requires the disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements.  Leases will be classified 
as finance or operating, with classification affecting the subsequent expense pattern and presentation of expense recognition in 
the income statement.  Subsequently, the FASB issued the following standards related to ASU 2016-02: ASU 2018-01, “Land 
Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842,”, ASU 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases”, 
ASU 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements” (“ASU 2018-11”) and ASU 2018-20, “Narrow-Scope Improvements 
for Lessors”, which provided additional guidance and clarity to ASU 2016-02 (collectively, the “New Lease Standard”).  The 
Company plans to adopt the New Lease Standard in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 under the alternative transition method 
permitted by ASU 2018-11.  This transition method allows an entity to initially apply the requirements of the New Lease Standard 
at the adoption date, versus at the beginning of the earliest period presented, and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the 
opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.  The New Lease Standard provides a number of optional practical 
expedients in transition.  The Company expects to elect the transition package of practical expedients, the practical expedient to 
not separate lease and non-lease components for all of its leases, the short-term lease recognition exemption for all of its leases 
that qualify and the land easement practical expedient; it does not plan to elect the use of hindsight practical expedient.

The  Company  expects  that  the  adoption  of  the  New  Lease  Standard  will  have  a  material  effect  on  its  consolidated  financial 
statements due to the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.  The Company continues 
to assess changes to its business processes, systems and controls to support accounting for leases under the new standard which 
includes implementation of its newly acquired global lease accounting system.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” (“ASU 2016-13”).  ASU 2016-13 sets 
forth  a  “current  expected  credit  loss”  model  which  requires  the  Company  to  measure  all  expected  credit  losses  for  financial 
instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable supportable forecasts.  The 
guidance in this new standard replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on 
financial assets measured at amortized cost and applies to some off-balance sheet credit exposures.  Subsequently, the FASB issued 
ASU  2018-19,  “Codification  Improvements  to Topic  326,  Financial  Instruments  -  Credit  Losses”  which  provided  additional 
guidance and clarity to ASU 2016-13 (collectively, the “New Credit Loss Standard”).  The effective date will be the first quarter 
of fiscal year 2020 and early adoption is permitted after 2018.  The New Credit Loss Standard will be applied using a modified 
retrospective approach.  The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated 
financial statements.

In  February  2018,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  2018-02,  “Income  Statement  -  Reporting  Comprehensive  Income  (Topic  220): 
Reclassification  of  Certain Tax  Effects  from Accumulated  Other  Comprehensive  Income,”  (“ASU  2018-02”).   ASU  2018-02 
allows reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from 
H.R. 1 “An Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to titles II and V of the concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 
2018” (the “2017 Federal Tax Act”).  The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2019.  Adoption is not expected to 
have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-09, “Codification Improvements,” (“ASU 2018-09”).  ASU 2018-09 provides technical 
corrections, clarifications and other improvements across a variety of accounting topics.  Certain amendments were applicable 
immediately while others provide transition guidance and are effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019.  The guidance 
applicable  immediately  did  not  have  a  material  impact  on  the  Company's  consolidated  financial  statements.   Adoption  of 
amendments with transition guidance are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), - Disclosure Framework - Changes to the 
Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement,” (“ASU 2018-13”).  ASU 2018-13 improves the effectiveness of fair value 
measurement disclosures by removing or modifying certain disclosure requirements and adding others.  The effective date will 
be the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 and early adoption is permitted.  Adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the 
Company’s consolidated financial statements.

F-16

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 
715-20): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans,” (“ASU 2018-14”).  ASU 
2018-14 adds, removes and clarifies disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement 
plans.  The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2021 and early adoption is permitted.  The Company is evaluating 
the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Intangible-Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), 
Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract,” (“ASU 
2018-15”).  ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is 
a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software.  
The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 and early adoption is permitted.  The Company is evaluating the 
impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In  October  2018,  the  FASB  issued ASU  2018-17,  “Targeted  Improvements  to  Related  Party  Guidance  for  Variable  Interest 
Entities” (“ASU 2018-17”).  ASU 2018-17 expands certain discussions in the variable interest entities guidance and provides that 
an indirect interest held through related parties in common control arrangements should be considered on a proportional basis for 
determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are a variable interest.  The effective date will be the first 
quarter of fiscal year 2020 and early adoption is permitted.  Adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s 
consolidated financial statements.

$(66.5) million for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

On December 22, 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) to address the application of U.S. GAAP 
when a SEC registrant does not have the necessary information available, compiled, analyzed, or reviewed in sufficient detail to 
complete the accounting for certain income tax effects from the 2017 Federal Tax Act.  During the fourth quarter of 2017, the 
Company recorded $29.8 million as a provisional tax charge for the deemed repatriation transition tax and $20.6 million as a 
provisional tax charge for the re-measurement of its U.S. deferred tax balances.  The Company recorded measurement period 
adjustments during 2018 which did not have material effect on its consolidated financial statements.  The 2017 provisional amounts 
were finalized in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Deferred tax assets were $264.2 million before valuation allowances of $115.4 million, partially offset by deferred tax liabilities 
of $1.9 million at December 31, 2018.  There were no deferred tax assets or liabilities for discontinued operations at December 
31, 2018 and 2017.

In January 2018, the FASB released guidance on the accounting for tax on Global Intangible Low-taxed Income (“GILTI”).  The 
guidance indicates that either accounting for deferred taxes related to GILTI or treating any taxes on GILTI as period costs are 
both acceptable accounting policy elections. Terex elected to treat taxes on GILTI inclusions as period costs.

The Company evaluates the net realizable value of its deferred tax assets each reporting period.  The Company must consider all 
objective evidence, both positive and negative, in evaluating the future realization of its deferred tax assets, including tax loss 
carry forwards.  Historical information is supplemented by currently available information about future tax years.  Realization of 
deferred tax assets requires sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character.  To the extent estimates of future taxable income 
decrease or do not materialize, additional valuation allowances may be required.  The Company records a valuation allowance for 
each deferred tax asset for which realization is not assessed as more likely than not.  The valuation allowance for deferred tax 
assets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $115.4 million and $136.4 million, respectively.  The net change in the total valuation 
allowance for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was a decrease of $21.0 million and a decrease of $12.2 million, 
respectively.

The Company’s Provision for (benefit from) income taxes is different from the amount that would be provided by applying the 
statutory federal income tax rate to the Company’s Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes.  The reasons 
for the difference are summarized as follows (in millions):

Tax at statutory federal income tax rate
State taxes
Change in valuation allowance
Foreign tax differential on income/losses of foreign subsidiaries
U.S. tax on multi-national operations
Tax effect of dispositions
2017 Federal Tax Act
Impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets

F-22

 
For the year ended December 31, 2016, the effective tax rate was reduced due to tax expense associated with the disposition of 
the  Company’s  MHPS  business  to  Konecranes  (the  “Disposition”),  which  changed  expectations  concerning  the  indefinite 
reinvestment of foreign earnings.

The Company does not provide for foreign income and withholding, U.S. Federal, or state income taxes or tax benefits on the 
financial reporting basis over the tax basis of its investments in foreign subsidiaries to the extent such amounts are indefinitely 
reinvested to support operations and continued growth plans outside the U.S.  The Company reviews its plan to indefinitely reinvest 
on a quarterly basis.  In making its decision to indefinitely reinvest, the Company evaluates its plans of reinvestment, its ability 
to control repatriation and to mobilize funds without triggering basis differences, and the profitability of U.S. operations and their 
cash requirements and the need, if any, to repatriate funds.  If the assessment of the Company with respect to earnings of non-U.S. 
subsidiaries changes, deferred U.S. income taxes, foreign income taxes, and foreign withholding taxes may have to be accrued.  

As a result of the 2017 Federal Tax Act, the Company changed its indefinite reinvestment assertion related to foreign earnings 
that have been taxed in the U.S. and now considers these earnings no longer indefinitely reinvested.  The Company has recorded 
foreign, federal and state tax expense with respect to earnings which have been subject to federal income tax and which are no 
longer indefinitely reinvested.  Any adjustments related to the change of indefinite reinvestment assertion for foreign earnings 
accumulated as of December 31, 2017 has been included in income from continuing operations as an adjustment to tax expense 
during the measurement period in 2018.  The Company plans to indefinitely reinvest all undistributed foreign earnings in excess 
of those previously taxed in the U.S.  For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company’s estimate of its remaining unremitted 
earnings of its foreign subsidiary ownership chains that have positive retained earnings and have not been subject to tax in the 
U.S.  was  approximately  $53  million.  At  this  time,  determination  of  the  unrecognized  deferred  tax  liabilities  for  temporary 
differences related to the Company’s investment in non-U.S. subsidiaries is not practicable.  

For the year ended December 31, 2016, as a result of the Disposition, the Company repatriated approximately $1 billion of foreign 
earnings that were previously intended to be permanently reinvested.

At December 31, 2018, the Company has various state net operating loss carry forwards available to reduce future state taxable 
income and income taxes, the majority of which will expire at various dates through 2038.  In addition, the gross amount of the 
U.S. federal capital loss carryforward is approximately $10 million which expires in 2019.

At December 31, 2018, the Company has approximately $592 million of loss carry forwards, consisting of $261 million in Germany, 
$171 million in Italy, $56 million in China, $31 million in Spain, and $73 million in other countries, which are available to offset 
future taxable income.  The majority of these tax loss carry forwards are available without expiration.  In addition, the gross amount 
of the Australian capital loss carryforward is $22 million, and it has an unlimited carryforward period.

The Company made total net income tax payments including discontinued operations of $52.7 million, $29.0 million and $52.8 
million in 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  At December 31, 2018 and 2017, Other current assets included net income tax 
receivable amounts of $13.5 million and $19.4 million, respectively.

The  Company  and  its  subsidiaries  conduct  business  globally  and  file  income  tax  returns  in  U.S.  federal,  state  and  foreign 
jurisdictions, as required.  From a tax perspective, major jurisdictions where the Company is often subject to examination by tax 
authorities include Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, China, India and the U.S.  Currently, various entities of the Company 
are under audit in Germany, Italy, India, the U.S. and elsewhere.  With few exceptions, the statute of limitations for the Company 
and most of its subsidiaries has expired for tax years prior to 2011.  The Company assesses uncertain tax positions for recognition, 
measurement and effective settlement.  Where the Company has determined that its tax return filing position does not satisfy the 
more likely than not recognition threshold of ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” it has recorded no tax benefits.  Where the Company has 
determined that its tax return filing positions are more likely than not to be sustained, the Company has measured and recorded 
the largest amount of tax benefit greater than 50% likely to be realized.  The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties, 
if any, related to income taxes as (Provision for) benefit from income taxes in its Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss).

As a result of the Disposition, the Company’s ending balance of unrecognized tax benefits for the year ended December 31, 2017
was reduced by $29.2 million.

The Company evaluates each reporting period whether it is reasonably possible material changes to its uncertain tax position 
liability could occur in the next 12 months.  Changes may occur as a result of uncertain tax positions being considered effectively 
settled, re-measured, paid, acquired or divested, as a result of a change in accounting rules, tax law or judicial decision, or due to 
expiration of the relevant statute of limitations.  It is not possible to predict which uncertain tax positions, if any, may be challenged 
by tax authorities.  Timing and impact of income tax audits and their resolution is highly uncertain.  New facts, laws, pronouncements 
and judicial decisions can change assessments concerning technical merit and measurement.  The amounts of or periods in which 
changes to reserves for uncertain tax positions will occur is rarely ascertainable.  The Company believes it is reasonably possible 
the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits disclosed as of December 31, 2018 may decrease approximately $1 million in the 
year ending December 31, 2019.  Such possible decrease relates to expiration of statutes of limitation.

As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had $13.5 million and $34.1 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits.  
Of the $13.5 million at December 31, 2018, $4.8 million, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.  As of December 31, 
2018 and 2017, the liability for potential interest and penalties was $0.2 million and $8.5 million, respectively.  During the year 
ended December 31, 2018, the Company recognized tax benefit of $6.7 million for interest and penalties.  During the year ended 
December 31, 2017, the Company recognized tax expense of $1.6 million in continuing operations and $(6.0) million in Gain 
(loss) on disposition of discontinued operations - (net of tax) in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss) for interest and 
penalties.

NOTE D – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND OTHER DIVESTITURES

2019 Mobile Cranes Divestiture

On  February  22,  2019,  the  Company  entered  into  an Asset  and  Stock  Purchase Agreement  (the  “ASPA”)  with  Tadano  Ltd. 
(“Tadano”).  Pursuant to the ASPA, the Company is selling its Demag® mobile cranes business to Tadano for an enterprise value 
of $215 million (the “Transaction”).  The consideration is being paid in cash and the cash received will be net of indebtedness.  
The purchase price is subject to post-closing adjustments based upon the level of net working capital and cash and debt in the 
Demag® mobile cranes business at the closing date.  The products to be divested are Demag® all terrain cranes and large lattice 
boom  crawler  cranes.   The Transaction,  which  is  subject  to  governmental  regulatory  approvals  and  other  customary  closing 
conditions, is targeted to close in mid-2019.  In addition to selling its Demag® mobile cranes business, the Company will exit the 
North American mobile crane product lines manufactured in its Oklahoma City facility.

As a result of the Transaction, the Company expects to recognize a pre-tax charge in the range of $100 million, which includes a 
charge of approximately $55 million attributable to the derecognition of amounts previously recognized in accumulated other 
comprehensive income, in the first quarter of 2019, which will be subject to post-closing adjustments, to write-down the mobile 
cranes disposal group to fair value, less costs to sell.

The Demag® mobile cranes business and North American mobile crane product lines constitute a significant part of the Company’s 
Cranes segment and represent a significant portion of the Company’s revenues, operating income (loss) and assets.  Going forward, 
the Company will manage and report its business in the following segments: (i) AWP and (ii) MP.  Prior period reportable segment 
information will be adjusted in succeeding periods to reflect the realignment of the Company’s operations.

MHPS

On  May  16,  2016,  Terex  agreed  to  sell  its  Material  Handling  and  Port  Solutions  (“MHPS”)  business  to  Konecranes  Plc 
(“Konecranes”) by entering into a Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement, as amended (the “SAPA”), with Konecranes.  As a result, 
the Company and Konecranes terminated the Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “BCA”) announced on 
August 11, 2015, with no penalties incurred by either party.  On January 4, 2017, the Company completed the Disposition, pursuant 
to the SAPA, effective as of January 1, 2017.  In connection with the Disposition, the Company received 19.6 million newly issued 
Class B shares of Konecranes and approximately $835 million in cash after adjustments for estimated cash, debt and net working 
capital at closing and the divestiture of Konecranes’ Stahl Crane Systems business, which was undertaken by Konecranes in 
connection with the Disposition.  During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recognized a gain on the Disposition 
(net of tax) of $65.7 million.

The Company sold all shares received in connection with the Disposition for net proceeds of approximately $770 million and 
recorded a $42.0 million net gain on sale of shares which included a gain of $41.6 million attributable to foreign exchange rate 
changes during the year ended December 31, 2017.  The net gain is recorded as a component of Other income (expense) - net in 
the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). 

On March 23, 2017, Konecranes declared a dividend of €1.05 per share to holders of record as of March 27, 2017, which was paid 
on April 4, 2017.  During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recognized dividend income of $13.5 million as a 
component of Other income (expense) - net in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss).

Loss Contract

Related to the Disposition, the Company and Konecranes entered into an agreement for Konecranes to manufacture certain crane 
products on behalf of the Company for an original period of 12 months, which was subsequently amended for a total of 36 months 
on October 11, 2017.  The Company recorded an expense of $7.9 million related to losses expected to be incurred over the original 
agreement’s life during the year ended December 31, 2017.

NOTE F – FINANCE RECEIVABLES

The Company, primarily through TFS, leases equipment and provides financing to customers for the purchase and use of Terex 
equipment.  In the normal course of business, TFS assesses credit risk, establishes structure and pricing of financing transactions, 
documents the finance receivable, and records and funds the transactions.  The Company bills and collects cash from the end 
customer. 

The Company primarily conducts on-book business in the U.S., with limited business in China, Germany and Italy.  The Company 
does business with various types of customers consisting of rental houses, end user customers and Terex equipment dealers.

The Company’s net finance receivable balances include both sales-type leases and commercial loans.  Finance receivables that 
management intends to hold until maturity are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of an allowance for loan 
losses as well as any deferred fees and costs.  Finance receivables originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are 
carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value, on an individual asset basis.  During the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017
and 2016, the Company transferred finance receivables of $290.5 million, $266.6 million and $290.5 million, respectively, to third 
party financial institutions, which qualified for sales treatment under ASC 860.  During the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 
and  2016,  the  Company  recorded  gains  on  transferred  finance  receivables  of  $3.3  million,  $11.3  million,  and  $2.5  million, 
respectively, which were recorded as sales by TFS and were reported in the Corporate and Other category.  At December 31, 2018
and 2017, the Company had $19.2 million and $26.0 million, respectively, of held for sale finance receivables recorded in Prepaid 
and other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Revenue attributable to finance receivables management intends to hold until maturity is recognized on the accrual basis using 
the effective interest method.  The Company bills customers and accrues interest income monthly on the unpaid principal balance. 
The accrual of interest is generally discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past 
due or management has significant doubts about further collectability of contractual payments, even though the loan may be 
currently performing.  A receivable may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or 
secured.  Interest received on non-accrual finance receivables is typically applied against principal. Finance receivables are generally 
restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current and the borrower has performed in accordance with the contractual 
terms for a reasonable period of time and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in 
doubt.  The Company has a history of enforcing the terms of these separate financing agreements.

Credit losses are charged against the allowance for credit losses when management ceases active collection efforts.  Subsequent 
recoveries, if any, are credited to earnings.  The allowance for credit losses is maintained at a level set by management which 
represents evaluation of known and inherent risks in the portfolio at the consolidated balance sheet date.  Management’s periodic 
evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, market-based loss experience, 
specific customer situations, estimated value of any underlying collateral, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors.  
This evaluation is inherently subjective, since it requires estimates that may be susceptible to significant change.  Although specific 
and general loss allowances are established in accordance with management’s best estimate, actual losses are dependent upon 
future events and, as such, further additions to or decreases from the level of loss allowances may be necessary.

The following table presents an analysis of the allowance for credit losses (in millions):

The Company utilizes a two tier approach to set allowances: (1) identification of impaired finance receivables and establishment 
of specific loss allowances on such receivables; and (2) establishment of general loss allowances on the remainder of its portfolio.  
Specific loss allowances are established based on circumstances and factors of specific receivables. The Company regularly reviews 
the portfolio which allows for early identification of potentially impaired receivables.  The process takes into consideration, among 
other things, delinquency status, type of collateral and other factors specific to the borrower.

General loss allowance levels are determined based upon a combination of factors including, but not limited to, TFS experience, 
general market loss experience, performance of the portfolio, current economic conditions, and management's judgment.  The two 
primary risk characteristics inherent in the portfolio are (1) the customer's ability to meet contractual payment terms, and (2) the 
liquidation  values  of  the  underlying  primary  and  secondary  collaterals.   The  Company  records  a  general  or  unallocated  loss 
allowance that is calculated by applying the reserve rate to its portfolio, including the unreserved balance of accounts that have 
been specifically reserved. All delinquent accounts are reviewed for potential impairment.  A receivable is deemed to be impaired 
when based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according 
to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  Amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the balance outstanding 
and underlying collateral value of equipment being financed, as well as any other collateral.  All finance receivables identified as 
impaired are evaluated individually.  Generally, the Company does not change terms and conditions of existing finance receivables.

Credit Quality Information

Credit quality is reviewed periodically based on customers’ payment status. In addition to delinquency status, any information 
received regarding a customer (such as bankruptcy filings, etc.) will also be considered to determine the credit quality of the 
customer.  Collateral asset values are also monitored regularly to determine the potential loss exposures on any given transaction.

The Company uses the following internal credit quality indicators, based on an internal risk rating system, using certain external 
credit data, listed from the lowest level of risk to highest level of risk.  The internal rating system considers factors affecting 
specific borrowers’ ability to repay.

NOTE K – DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company operates internationally, with manufacturing and sales facilities in various locations around the world.  In the normal 
course of business, the Company primarily uses cash flow derivatives to manage foreign currency and price risk exposures on 
third party and intercompany forecasted transactions.  For a derivative to qualify for hedge accounting treatment at inception and 
throughout the hedge period, the Company formally documents the nature and relationships between hedging instruments and 
hedged items, as well as its risk-management objectives and strategies for undertaking various hedge transactions, and method of 
assessing hedge effectiveness.  Additionally, for hedges of forecasted transactions, significant characteristics and expected terms 
of a forecasted transaction must be specifically identified, and it must be probable that each forecasted transaction will occur.  If 
it  is  deemed  probable  the  forecasted  transaction  will  not  occur,  then  the  gain  or  loss  would  be  recognized  in  current 
earnings.  Financial instruments qualifying for hedge accounting must maintain a specified level of effectiveness between the 
hedging instrument and the item being hedged.  The Company does not engage in trading or other speculative use of financial 
instruments.  The Company records all derivative contracts at fair value on a recurring basis.  The Company’s derivative financial 
instruments are categorized under the ASC 820 hierarchy, see Note A - “Basis of Presentation,” for an explanation of the  hierarchy.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The Company enters into foreign exchange contracts to manage variability of future cash flows associated with recognized assets 
or liabilities or forecasted transactions due to changing currency exchange rates.  Primary currencies to which the Company is 
exposed are the Euro, British Pound and Australian Dollar.    These foreign exchange contracts are designated as cash flow hedging 
instruments.  Fair values of these contracts are derived using quoted forward foreign exchange prices to interpolate values of 
outstanding  trades  at  the  reporting  date  based  on  their  maturities.    Most  of  the  foreign  exchange  contracts  outstanding  as  of 
December 31, 2018 mature on or before December 31, 2019.  At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had $394.0 million
and $313.4 million notional amount, respectively, of foreign exchange contracts outstanding that were designated as cash flow 
hedge contracts.  For effective hedging instruments, unrealized gains and losses associated with foreign exchange contracts are 
deferred as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) until the underlying hedged transactions 
settle and are reclassified to COGS in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss).

Certain foreign exchange contracts entered into by the Company have not been designated as hedging instruments to mitigate its 
exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on third party forecasted transactions and recognized assets and liabilities.  
The Company had $107.8 million and $113.2 million notional amount of foreign exchange contracts outstanding that were not 
designated as hedging instruments at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The majority of gains and losses recognized 
from foreign exchange contracts not designated as hedging instruments were offset by changes in the underlying hedged items, 
resulting in no material net impact on earnings.  Changes in the fair value of these derivative financial instruments were recognized 
as gains or losses in Other income (expense) – net in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss).

Other

Other derivatives designated as cash flow hedging instruments include cross currency and commodity swaps with outstanding 
notional amounts of $45.9 million and $11.2 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2018.  The outstanding notional amount 
of cross currency swaps was $48.0 million as of December 31, 2017.  The Company uses cross currency swaps to mitigate its 
exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity swaps to mitigate price risk for hot rolled coil steel.  Fair 
values of cross currency swaps are based on the present value of future cash payments and receipts.  Fair values of commodity 
swaps are based on observable market data for similar assets and liabilities.  Changes in the fair value of cross currency and 
commodity swaps are deferred in AOCI.  Gains or losses on cross currency swaps are reclassified to Other income (expense) - 
net in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss) when the underlying hedged item is re-measured.  Gains or losses on interest 
rate and commodity swaps are reclassified to COGS in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss) when the hedged transaction 
affects earnings.

Other derivatives not designated as hedging instruments include a debt conversion feature on a convertible promissory note held 
by the Company for which changes in fair value are recorded in Other income (expense) - net in the Consolidated Statement of 
Income (Loss).

In the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss), the Company records hedging activity related to foreign exchange contracts, 
cross currency and commodity swaps, and the debt conversion feature in the accounts for which the hedged items are recorded.  On 
the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Company presents cash flows from hedging activities in the same manner as it 
records the underlying item being hedged.

Counterparties to the Company’s derivative financial instruments are major financial institutions and commodity trading companies 
with  credit  ratings  of  investment  grade  or  better  and  no  collateral  is  required.  There  are  no  significant  risk 
concentrations.  Management continues to monitor counterparty risk and believes the risk of incurring losses on derivative contracts 
related to credit risk is unlikely and any losses would be immaterial. 

See Note P - “Stockholders’ Equity” for unrealized net gains (losses), net of tax, included in AOCI.  Within the unrealized net 
gains (losses) included in AOCI as of December 31, 2018, it is estimated that $2.7 million of losses are expected to be reclassified 
into earnings in the next twelve months.

NOTE L – RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

The Company continually evaluates its cost structure to be appropriately positioned to respond to changing market conditions.  
From time to time, the Company may initiate certain restructuring programs to better utilize its workforce and optimize facility 
utilization to match demand for its products.

Restructuring

During 2016, the Company established restructuring programs in its Cranes segment to transfer production between existing 
facilities and close certain facilities in order to maximize labor efficiencies and reduce overhead costs. The programs are expected 
to cost $57.6 million, result in the reduction of approximately 550 team members and be completed in 2020.

The following table provides information for all restructuring activities by segment regarding the amount of expense (income) 
incurred during the year ended December 31, 2018, the cumulative amount of expenses incurred since inception of the programs 
through December 31, 2018, and the total amount expected to be incurred (in millions):

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $1.0 million and $3.3 million as components of COGS and 
SG&A, respectively, for severance charges across all segments and corporate functions.  During the year ended December 31, 
2017, the Company recorded reductions of $(17.7) million to COGS, primarily due to the decrease in severance accruals for the 
Cranes segment established in the fourth quarter of 2016 as production volumes were expected to exceed earlier forecasts requiring 
us to maintain a higher headcount.  During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded $6.1 million as a component 
of SG&A for severance charges across all segments and corporate functions.  During the year ended December 31, 2016, the 
Company recorded $21.1 million and $12.7 million as a component of COGS and SG&A, respectively, for severance charges

On January 31, 2017, the Company entered into a new credit agreement (as amended, the “2017 Credit Agreement”) with the 
lenders and issuing banks party thereto and Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch (“CSAG”), as administrative agent and 
collateral agent.  The 2017 Credit Agreement includes a revolving line of credit as further described below and a $400 million
senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan”), which will mature on January 31, 2024.  In connection with the 2017 Credit Agreement, 
the Company terminated its 2014 Credit Agreement (as defined below), among the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, the 
lenders thereunder and CSAG, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and related agreements and documents.

On August 17, 2017, the Company entered into an Incremental Assumption Agreement and Amendment No. 1 to the 2017 Credit 
Agreement which lowered the interest rate on the Company’s Term Loan by 25 basis points.  On February 28, 2018, the Company 
entered into an Incremental Assumption Agreement and Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the 2017 Credit Agreement 
which lowered the interest rate on the Company’s Term Loan by an additional 25 basis points.  The Term Loan portion of the 2017 
Credit Agreement bears interest at a rate of London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.00% with a 0.75% LIBOR floor.  
On April 10, 2018, the Company entered into an Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement to the 2017 Credit Agreement 
which increased the size of the revolving line of credit from $450 million to $600 million available through January 31, 2022.  
The 2017 Credit Agreement allows unlimited incremental commitments, which may be extended at the option of the existing or 
new lenders and can be in the form of revolving credit commitments, term loan commitments, or a combination of both, with 
incremental amounts in excess of $300 million as long as the Company satisfies a senior secured leverage ratio contained in the 
2017 Credit Agreement.

F-39

 
 
The 2017 Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with a number of covenants, which limit, in certain circumstances, 
the Company’s ability to take a variety of actions, including but not limited to: incur indebtedness; create or maintain liens on its 
property or assets; make investments, loans and advances; repurchase shares of its common stock; engage in acquisitions, mergers, 
consolidations and asset sales; redeem debt; and pay dividends and distributions.  If the Company’s borrowings under its revolving 
line of credit are greater than 30% of the total revolving credit commitments, the 2017 Credit Agreement requires the Company 
to comply with certain financial tests, as defined in the 2017 Credit Agreement.  If applicable, the minimum required levels of the 
interest coverage ratio would be 2.5 to 1.0 and the maximum permitted levels of the senior secured leverage ratio would be 2.75
to 1.0.  The 2017 Credit Agreement also contains customary default provisions.  The Company was in compliance with the financial 
covenants contained in the 2017 Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2018.

During the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt related to 
Amendment No. 2 to the 2017 Credit Agreement of approximately $0.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had, $391.4 million and $395.1 million, net of discount, respectively, in the 
Term Loan outstanding under the 2017 Credit Agreement.  The weighted average interest rate on the Term Loan at December 31, 
2018 and 2017 was 4.50% and 3.94%, respectively.  The Company had revolving credit amounts of $237.0 million outstanding 
as of December 31, 2018 and no revolving credit amounts outstanding as of December 31, 2017.  The weighted average interest 
rate on the revolving credit facility at December 31, 2018 was 5.98%.

The 2017 Credit Agreement incorporates facilities for issuance of letters of credit up to $400 million.  Letters of credit issued 
under the 2017 Credit Agreement letter of credit facility decrease availability under the $600 million revolving line of credit.  As 
of December 31, 2018, the Company had no letters of credit issued under the 2017 Credit Agreement.  The 2017 Credit Agreement 
also permits the Company to have additional letter of credit facilities up to $300 million, and letters of credit issued under such 
additional facilities do not decrease availability under the revolving lines of credit.  The Company had letters of credit issued under 
the additional letter of credit facilities of the 2017 Credit Agreement that totaled $33.4 million and $34.3 million as of December 31, 
2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company also has bilateral arrangements to issue letters of credit with various other financial institutions.  These additional 
letters of credit do not reduce availability under the 2017 Credit Agreement.  The Company had letters of credit issued under these 
additional arrangements of $42.4 million and $23.1 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

In total, as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had letters of credit outstanding of $75.8 million and $57.4 million, 
respectively.  The letters of credit generally serve as collateral for certain liabilities included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet 
and guaranteeing the Company’s performance under contracts.

Furthermore, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries agreed to take certain actions to secure borrowings under the 2017 Credit 
Agreement.  As a result, on January 31, 2017, Terex and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement 
with CSAG, as collateral agent for the lenders, granting security and guarantees to the lenders for amounts borrowed under the 
2017 Credit Agreement.  Pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, Terex is required to (a) pledge as collateral the 
capital stock of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of certain of the Company’s material 
foreign subsidiaries, and (b) provide a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s domestic assets.

2014 Credit Agreement

On August 13, 2014 the Company entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “2014 Credit Agreement”), with the lenders 
party thereto and CSAG, as administrative agent and collateral agent.  The 2014 Credit Agreement provided the Company with a 
senior secured revolving line of credit of up to $600 million that was available through August 13, 2019, a $230.0 million senior 
secured term loan and a €200.0 million senior secured term loan.

On January 31, 2017, in connection with the 2017 Credit Agreement, the Company terminated its 2014 Credit Agreement and 
related agreements and documents.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt related to its 2014 Credit 
Agreement of $8.2 million.

6-1/2% Senior Notes

On March 27, 2012, the Company sold and issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes Due 2020 (“6-1/2%
Notes”) at par.  The proceeds from these notes were used for general corporate purposes.  The 6-1/2% Notes became redeemable 
by the Company beginning in April 2016 at an initial redemption price of 103.25% of principal amount.

The Company redeemed $45.8 million principal amount of the 6-1/2% Notes in the first quarter of 2017 for $47.9 million, including 
market premiums of $1.2 million and accrued but unpaid interest of $0.9 million.  The Company redeemed the remaining $254.2 
million principal amount of the 6-1/2% Notes on April 3, 2017 for $266.7 million, including accrued but unpaid interest of $8.4 
million and a call premium of $4.1 million (which was recorded as Loss on early extinguishment of debt on that date).  The 6-1/2%
Notes were jointly and severally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.

6% Senior Notes

On November 26, 2012, the Company sold and issued $850 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2021 (“6%
Notes”) at par.  The proceeds from this offering plus other cash were used to redeem all $800.0 million principal amount of the 
outstanding 8% Senior Subordinated Notes.  During the first quarter of 2017, the Company redeemed all $850.0 million of the 
6% Notes for $887.2 million, including redemption premiums of $25.9 million and accrued but unpaid interest of $11.3 million.

5-5/8% Senior Notes

On January 31, 2017, the Company sold and issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes Due 2025 (“5-5/8% 
Notes”) at par in a private offering.  The proceeds from the 5-5/8% Notes, together with cash on hand, including cash from the 
sale of its MHPS business, was used: (i) to complete a tender offer for up to $550.0 million of its 6% Notes, (ii) to redeem and 
discharge such portion of the 6% Notes not purchased in the tender offer, (iii) to fund a $300.0 million partial redemption of the 
6% Notes, (iv) to fund repayment of all $300.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 6-1/2% Notes on or before 
April  3,  2017,  (v)  to  pay  related  premiums,  fees,  discounts  and  expenses,  and  (vi)  for  general  corporate  purposes,  including 
repayment of borrowings outstanding under the 2014 Credit Agreement.  The 5-5/8% Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed 
by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt related to its 6% Notes 
and its 6-1/2% Notes of $43.7 million.

2015 Securitization Facility

On May 28, 2015, the Company, through certain of its subsidiaries, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Securitization 
Facility”)  with  lenders  party  thereto.    On  May  31,  2016,  the  Company  terminated  the  Securitization  Facility,  and  repaid  all 
outstanding loans because it was not providing the Company with the flexibility needed for its portfolio of assets. As a result of 
terminating  the  Securitization  Facility,  during  the  year  ended  December 31,  2016,  the  Company  recorded  a  loss  on  early 
extinguishment of debt of $0.4 million to write-off deferred debt costs.  The facility limit was $350 million and contained customary 
representations, warranties and covenants.

Commitment Letter 

On May 16, 2016, as a result of terminating the BCA, the Company and Konecranes terminated the commitment letter they entered 
into on August 10, 2015 with the lenders thereto in respect of the senior secured credit facilities there under (the “Commitment 
Letter”).  As the Company and Konecranes terminated the BCA, the parties no longer needed the use of funds that would have 
been supplied by the senior secured credit facilities pursuant to the Commitment Letter.

In connection with the Commitment Letter, the Company incurred fees of $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 
which are included with transaction costs directly related to the BCA and are recorded in Other income (expense) - net in the 
Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss).

The fair value of debt reported in the table above is based on price quotations on the debt instrument in an active market and 
therefore categorized under Level 1 of the ASC 820 hierarchy.  See Note A – “Basis of Presentation,” for an explanation of ASC 
820 hierarchy.  The Company believes that the carrying value of its other borrowings, including amounts outstanding, if any, for 
the revolving credit line under the 2017 Credit Agreement approximate fair market value based on maturities for debt of similar 
terms.  Fair value of these other borrowings are categorized under Level 2 of the ASC 820 hierarchy.

The Company paid $57.5 million, $59.5 million and $96.2 million of interest in 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Most of the Company’s operating leases provide the Company with the option to renew the leases for varying periods after the 
initial lease terms.  These renewal options enable the Company to renew the leases based upon the fair rental values at the date of 
expiration of the initial lease.  Total rental expense under operating leases was $41.0 million, $39.9 million, and $44.3 million in 
2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

NOTE O – RETIREMENT PLANS AND OTHER BENEFITS

U.S. Pension Plan

The  Company  maintains  a  nonqualified  Supplemental  Executive  Retirement  Plan  (“U.S.  SERP”).   The  U.S.  SERP  provides 
retirement benefits to certain senior executives of the Company.  Generally, the U.S. SERP provides a benefit based on average 
total compensation earned over a participant’s final five years of employment and years of service reduced by benefits earned 
under any Company retirement program, excluding salary deferrals and matching contributions.  In addition, benefits are reduced 
by Social Security Primary Insurance Amounts attributable to Company contributions.  The U.S. SERP is unfunded and participation 
in the U.S. SERP has been frozen.  There is a defined contribution plan for certain senior executives of the Company.

The Company maintained one qualified defined benefit pension plan covering certain domestic employees (the “Terex Plan”).  
Participation in the Terex Plan for all employees was frozen.  Participants were credited with post-freeze service for purposes of 
determining vesting and retirement eligibility only.  The benefits covering salaried employees were based primarily on years of 
service and employees’ qualifying compensation during the final years of employment.  The benefits covering bargaining unit 
employees were based primarily on years of service and a flat dollar amount per year of service.  The Company’s policy was 
generally to fund the Terex Plan based on the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”).  
Plan assets consisted primarily of common stocks, bonds and short-term cash equivalent funds.  In November 2018, the Company 
completed the termination of the Terex Plan as further described below.

There were no minimum contribution requirements for the 2018, 2017 and 2016 plan years.

Non-U.S. Plans

The Company maintains defined benefit plans in France, Germany, India, Switzerland and the United Kingdom for some of its 
subsidiaries.  Participation in the United Kingdom plan has been frozen.  The United Kingdom plan is a funded plan and the 
Company funds this plan in accordance with funding regulations in the United Kingdom and a negotiated agreement between the 
Company and the plan’s trustee.  The Switzerland plan is a funded plan and the Company funds this plan in accordance with 
funding regulations.  The plans in France, Germany and India are unfunded plans.  In Italy, there are mandatory termination 
indemnity plans providing a benefit that is payable upon termination of employment in substantially all cases of termination.  The 
Company records this obligation based on mandated requirements.  The measure of current obligation is not dependent on the 
employees’ future service and therefore is measured at current value.

Other Post-employment Benefits

The Company has several non-pension post-retirement benefit programs.  The Company provides post-employment health and 
life insurance benefits to certain former salaried and hourly employees.  The health care programs are contributory, with participants’ 
contributions adjusted annually, and the life insurance plan is noncontributory.

F-43

 
Savings Plans

The Company sponsors various tax deferred savings plans into which eligible employees may elect to contribute a portion of their 
compensation.  The Company may, but is not obligated to, contribute to certain of these plans.  Charges recognized for the deferred 
compensation  plan  and  these  other  savings  plans  were  $22.9  million,  $16.9  million  and  $19.3  million  for  the  years  ended 
December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  For the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, Company matching 
contributions to tax deferred savings plans were invested at the direction of plan participants.

Guaranteed Minimum Pension (“GMP”) Payments

On October 26, 2018, the High Court of Justice in the United Kingdom ruled that Lloyds Bank plc was required to provide equal 
benefits for men and women for GMP payments accrued after May 17, 1990 in pension plans liabilities.  Inequalities arose from 
statutory differences between men and women in both the earliest age from which a GMP is payable and the rates of the GMP 
accrual. The Company estimated the cost of equalizing the GMP payments and increased its Non-U.S. pension benefit liability 
by $2.6 million at December 31, 2018 for GMP payments.  This is recorded as prior service costs for 2018 and will amortize 
beginning in 2019.

Components of Net periodic cost other than the Service cost component are included in Other income (expense) - Net in the 
Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss).  The Service cost component is included in the same line item or items 
as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by pertinent employees during the period.

Pension Settlements

In  November  2018,  the  Company  entered  into  a  contract  for  a  group  annuity  to  transfer  the  obligation  to  pay  the  remaining 
retirement benefits of all plan participants in the Terex Plan to an insurance company (the “Pension Annuitization”).  The transfer 
of $108.5 million in both plan obligations and plan assets was completed on November 5, 2018.  The Company contributed $4.8 
million to the plan to facilitate the transaction, secure the remaining plan obligations and take advantage of certain tax benefits.  
Prior to the transaction, the Terex Plan had approximately 2,600 participants. As a result of the Pension Annuitization, the Company 
recorded a pretax non-cash settlement loss of $67.0 million (after tax $42.6 million) reflecting the accelerated recognition of 
unamortized losses in the Terex Plan as a result of the obligation that was settled. 

Participants in the Company’s U.K pension plan may elect to receive a lump-sum settlement of remaining pension benefits under 
the terms of the plan.  As a result of participants electing the lump-sum option during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 
2017, the Company settled $2.7 million and $5.0 million of Non-U.S. pension obligations, respectively.  The settlements were 
paid from plan assets and did not require a cash contribution from the Company.  As a result, the Company recorded settlement 
losses of $0.8 million and $1.5 million reflecting the accelerated recognition of unamortized losses in the plan proportionate to 
the obligation that was settled in 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Determination of plan obligations and associated expenses requires the use of actuarial valuations based on certain economic 
assumptions, which includes discount rates and expected rates of return on plan assets.  The discount rate enables the Company 
to estimate the present value of expected future cash flows on the measurement date.  The rate used reflects a rate of return on 
high-quality fixed income investments that matches the duration of expected benefit payments at the December 31 measurement 
date.

The rate used for the expected return on plan assets for the U.S. plan was based on a review of long-term historical asset performances 
aligned with the Company’s investment strategy and portfolio mix.  While the Company examines performance annually, it also 
views historic asset portfolios and performance over a long period of years before recommending a change.  In the short term, 
there may be fluctuations of positive and negative yields year-over-year, but over the long-term, in 2018 the return was expected 
to be approximately 7% for the Terex Plan prior to termination.

The Company’s overall investment strategy for the U.S. defined benefit plan balances had two objectives, investing in fixed income 
securities whose maturity broadly matches the maturity of the pension liabilities and investing in equities and other assets expected 
to generate higher returns.  The Company invested through a number of investment funds with diversified asset types, strategies 
and managers.  Equity securities, including investments in large to small-cap companies in the U.S. and internationally, constituted 
approximately 31% of the portfolio at December 31, 2017.  Fixed income securities including corporate bonds of companies from 
diversified industries, U.S. Treasuries and other securities, which may include mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities 
and collateralized mortgage obligations, constituted approximately 69% of the portfolio at December 31, 2017.

F-46

 
 
 
 
 
The methodology used to determine the rate of return on non-U.S. pension plan assets was based on average rate of earnings on 
funds invested and to be invested.  Based on historical returns and future expectations, the Company believes the investment return 
assumptions are reasonable.  The expected rate of return of plan assets represents an estimate of long-term returns on the investment 
portfolio.  This assumption is reviewed by the trustees and varies with each of the plans.

The overall investment strategy for Non-U.S. defined benefit plans is to achieve a mix of investments to support long-term growth 
and minimize volatility while maximizing rates of return by diversification of asset types, fund strategies and fund managers.  
Fixed income investments include investments in European government securities and European corporate bonds and constitute

For the other benefits, for measurement purposes, a 6.50% rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits 
was assumed for 2019, decreasing one-half percentage point per year until it reaches 4.50% for 2022 and thereafter. Assumed 
health care cost trend rates may have a significant effect on the amounts reported for the health care plan.

On  December 31,  2018,  there  were  81.3  million  shares  of  common  stock  issued  and  69.6  million  shares  of  common  stock 
outstanding.  Of the 218.7 million unissued shares of common stock at that date, 3.0 million shares of common stock were reserved 
for issuance for the vesting of restricted stock. 

Common Stock in Treasury.  On December 21 2018, the Company retired 50.0 million shares of its common stock held in treasury. 
The shares were returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares. As a result, the treasury stock balance decreased by 
$1,882.0 million.  As a part of the retirement, the Company reduced its common stock, Additional paid-in capital and Retained 
earnings balances by $(0.5) million, $(549.2) million, and $(1,332.3) million, respectively. 

The Company values treasury stock on an average cost basis.  As of December 31, 2018, the Company held 11.7 million shares 
of common stock in treasury totaling $401.8 million, which include 0.8 million shares held in a trust for the benefit of the Company’s 
deferred compensation plan totaling $19.6 million.

Preferred Stock.  The Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended in June 1998 to authorize 50.0 million shares of preferred 
stock, $0.01 par value per share.  As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, there were no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

Long-Term Incentive Plans.  In May 2018, the stockholders approved the Terex Corporation 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the 
“2018 Plan”).  The purpose of the 2018 Plan is to assist the Company in attracting and retaining selected individuals to serve as 
employees, directors, officers, consultants and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates who will contribute to 
the Company’s success and to achieve long-term objectives which will inure to the benefit of all stockholders of the Company 
through the additional incentive inherent in the ownership of the common stock.  The 2018 Plan authorizes the granting of (i) 
options to purchase shares of common stock (“Shares”), (ii) stock appreciation rights, (iii) restricted stock awards, (iv) restricted 
stock units, (v) other stock awards, (vi) cash awards and (vii) performance awards.  The maximum number of Shares that may be 
the subject of  awards under the 2018 Plan is 1.2 million Shares, plus the number of Shares remaining available for issuance under 
the Terex Corporation 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”) that are not subject to outstanding awards as of the date 
of stockholder approval, and the number of Shares subject to awards outstanding under the 2009 Plan as of such date but only to 
the extent that such outstanding awards are forfeited, expire, or otherwise terminate without the issuance of such Shares.  Under 
the 2018 Plan, Shares covering restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and other stock awards shall only be counted as used 
to the extent that they are actually issued.  As of December 31, 2018, 2.7 million shares were available for grant under the 2018 
Plan.

F-48

 
In May 2009, the stockholders approved the 2009 Plan.  The purpose of the 2009 Plan is to provide a means whereby employees, 
directors and third-party service providers of the Company develop a sense of proprietorship and personal involvement in the 
development and financial success of the Company, and to encourage them to devote their best efforts to the business of the 
Company, thereby advancing the interests of the Company and its stockholders.  The 2009 Plan provides for incentive compensation 
in the form of (i) options to purchase Shares, (ii) stock appreciation rights, (iii) restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, 
(iv) other stock awards, (v) cash awards, and (vi) performance awards.  The maximum number of Shares available for issuance 
under the 2009 Plan was 8.0 million Shares plus the number of Shares remaining available for issuance under the Terex Corporation 
2000 Incentive Plan and the 1996 Terex Corporation Long-Term Incentive Plan.

Under the 2018 and 2009 Plans, approximately 50% of outstanding awards are time-based and vest ratably on each of the first 
three anniversary dates.  Approximately 21% cliff vest at the end of a three year period and are subject to performance targets that 
may or may not be met and for which the performance period has not yet been completed.  Approximately 29% cliff vest and are 
based on performance targets containing a market condition determined over a three year period. 

The fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the market price at the date of grant approval except for 0.9 million shares 
based on a market condition.  The Company uses the Monte Carlo method to provide grant date fair value for awards with a market 
condition.  The Monte Carlo method is a statistical simulation technique used to provide the grant date fair value of an award.

As of December 31, 2018, unrecognized compensation costs related to restricted stock totaled approximately $52 million, which 
will be expensed over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.  The grant date weighted average fair value for restricted stock 
awards during the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 was $40.06, $32.54 and $23.95, respectively.  The total fair 
value  of  shares  vested  for  restricted  stock  awards  was  $34.9  million,  $36.0  million  and  $35.1  million  for  the  years  ended 
December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation were $4.6 million, $11.8 million and $12.6 million for the years ended 
December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The excess tax benefit for all stock-based compensation is included in the 
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows as an operating cash activity.

NOTE Q – LITIGATION AND CONTINGENCIES

General

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including product liability, general liability, workers’ compensation liability, 
employment, commercial and intellectual property litigation, which have arisen in the normal course of operations.  The Company 
is insured for product liability, general liability, workers’ compensation, employer’s liability, property damage and other insurable 
risk required by law or contract, with retained liability or deductibles.  The Company records and maintains an estimated liability 
in the amount of management’s estimate of the Company’s aggregate exposure for such retained liabilities and deductibles.  For 
such retained liabilities and deductibles, the Company determines its exposure based on probable loss estimations, which requires 
such losses to be both probable and the amount or range of probable loss to be estimable.  The Company believes it has made 
appropriate and adequate reserves and accruals for its current contingencies and the likelihood of a material loss beyond amounts 
accrued is remote.  The Company believes the outcome of such matters, individually and in aggregate, will not have a material 
adverse effect on its financial statements as a whole.  However, outcomes of lawsuits cannot be predicted and, if determined 
adversely, could ultimately result in the Company incurring significant liabilities which could have a material adverse effect on 
its results of operations.

Securities and Stockholder Derivative Lawsuits

In 2010, the Company received complaints seeking certification of class action lawsuits as follows:

•  A consolidated class action complaint for violations of securities laws was filed in the United States District Court, District 
of Connecticut on November 18, 2010 and is entitled Sheet Metal Workers Local 32 Pension Fund and Ironworkers St. 
Louis Council Pension Fund, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Terex Corporation, et al. 

•  A stockholder derivative complaint for violation of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, breach of fiduciary duty, 
waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment was filed on April 12, 2010 in the United States District Court, District 
of Connecticut and is entitled Peter Derrer, derivatively on behalf of Terex Corporation v. Ronald M. DeFeo, Phillip C. 
Widman, Thomas J. Riordan, G. Chris Andersen, Donald P. Jacobs, David A. Sachs, William H. Fike, Donald DeFosset, 
Helge H. Wehmeier, Paula H.J. Cholmondeley, Oren G. Shaffer, Thomas J. Hansen, and David C. Wang, and Terex 
Corporation.

These lawsuits, which generally cover the time period from February 2008 to February 2009, allege violations of federal securities 
laws and Delaware law claiming, among other things, that certain of the Company’s SEC filings and other public statements 
contained false and misleading statements which resulted in damages to the Company, the plaintiffs and the members of the 
purported class when they purchased the Company’s securities and that there were breaches of fiduciary duties.  The stockholder 
derivative complaint also alleges waste of corporate assets relating to the repurchase of the Company’s shares in the market and 
unjust  enrichment  as  a  result  of  securities  sales  by  certain  officers  and  directors.   The  complaints  seek,  among  other  things, 
unspecified compensatory damages, costs and expenses.  As a result, the Company is unable to estimate a possible loss or a range 
of losses for these lawsuits.  The stockholder derivative complaint also seeks amendments to the Company’s corporate governance 
procedures in addition to unspecified compensatory damages from the individual defendants in its favor.

On March 31, 2018, the securities lawsuit was dismissed against all of the named defendants except Mr. Riordan and the Company. 
In addition, certain claims were also narrowed.  However, as all claims against Mr. Riordan were not dismissed, the case continued 
against both Mr. Riordan and, as a result, the Company as well.  While the Company continues to believe that it has acted, and 
continues to act, in compliance with all applicable laws, on February 13, 2019, the plaintiffs and the Company advised the court 
that the parties have agreed in principle to a settlement of the securities lawsuit, subject to the court’s approval, and are beginning 
the process of drafting preliminary settlement papers for the court’s review and preliminary approval of the proposed settlement 
and notice process.  The proposed settlement amount would be covered by the Company’s insurance policies and will not have a 
material effect on the Company’s financial results.  However, if the parties are not able to reach a final settlement of the claims, 
or if the court were to fail to approve a settlement, and the Company were to ultimately receive an adverse judgment in excess of 
the Company’s insurance policies, it could result in the Company incurring significant liabilities.

F-52

The stockholder derivative action requires that the plaintiff own shares at the time of the alleged action continuously throughout 
the pendency of the case.  In September of 2018, the plaintiff’s counsel notified the Company that its named plaintiff no longer 
owned shares of Terex.  Plaintiff’s counsel filed a motion to replace the plaintiff in this case with a new plaintiff.  The Company 
filed a motion objecting to the substitution on several grounds as it is the Company’s belief that the proposed substitute plaintiff 
does not meet the legal requirements to act as plaintiff in this action.  To date, the Court has not rendered a decision on these 
motions.  The Company believes that it has acted, and continues to act, in compliance with applicable laws with respect to this 
matter.  This matter is covered by the Company’s insurance.  However, the outcome of this lawsuit cannot be predicted and, if the 
Company were to receive an adverse judgment in excess of the Company’s insurance policies, it could ultimately result in the 
Company incurring significant liabilities.

Demag Cranes AG Appraisal Proceedings

In connection with the Company’s purchase of Demag Cranes AG (“DCAG”) in 2011, certain former shareholders of DCAG 
initiated appraisal proceedings relating to (i) a domination and profit loss transfer agreement between DCAG and Terex Germany 
GmbH  &  Co.  KG  (the  “DPLA  Proceeding”)  and  (ii)  the  squeeze  out  of  the  former  DCAG  shareholders  (the  “Squeeze  out 
Proceeding”) alleging that the Company did not pay fair value for the shares of DCAG.  In April 2018, the Company reached an 
agreement with the former shareholders of DCAG to settle the DPLA Proceeding for an amount not material to the Company’s 
consolidated financial statements.  The Squeeze out Proceeding will continue and is still in the relatively early stages.  While the 
Company believes the position of the former shareholders of DCAG is without merit and is vigorously opposing it, no assurance 
can be given as to the final resolution of the Squeeze out Proceeding or that the Company will not ultimately be required to make 
an additional payment as a result of such dispute.

Other

The Company is involved in various other legal proceedings which have arisen in the normal course of its operations.  The Company 
has recorded provisions for estimated losses in circumstances where a loss is probable and the amount or range of possible amounts 
of the loss is estimable.

Credit Guarantees

Customers of the Company from time to time may fund the acquisition of the Company’s equipment through third-party finance 
companies.  In certain instances, the Company may provide a credit guarantee to the finance company, by which the Company 
agrees to make payments to the finance company should the customer default.  The maximum liability of the Company is generally 
limited to its customer’s remaining payments due to the finance company at time of default.

As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s maximum exposure to such credit guarantees was $59.2 million and $49.2 
million, respectively.  Terms of these guarantees coincide with the financing arranged by the customer and generally do not exceed 
five years.  Given the Company’s position as original equipment manufacturer and its knowledge of end markets, the Company, 
when called upon to fulfill a guarantee, generally has been able to liquidate the financed equipment at a minimal loss, if any, to 
the Company.

There can be no assurance that historical credit default experience will be indicative of future results.  The Company’s ability to 
recover losses experienced from its guarantees may be affected by economic conditions in effect at the time of loss.

Residual Value Guarantees

The Company issues residual value guarantees under sales-type leases. A residual value guarantee involves a guarantee that a 
piece of equipment will have a minimum fair market value at a future date if certain conditions are met by the customer. Maximum 
exposure for residual value guarantees issued by the Company totaled $2.7 million and $4.2 million as of December 31, 2018 and 
2017, respectively. The Company is generally able to mitigate a portion risk associated with these guarantees because the maturity 
of guarantees is staggered, limiting the amount of used equipment entering the marketplace at any one time.

The Company has recorded an aggregate liability within Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities in the Consolidated 
Balance Sheet of $3.8 million and $4.3 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, for estimated fair value of all 
guarantees provided.

There can be no assurance the Company’s historical experience in used equipment markets will be indicative of future results.  
The Company’s ability to recover losses experienced from its guarantees may be affected by economic conditions in used equipment 
markets at the time of loss.
