At Toromont, continuous improvement is the product of a culture 
that believes we can always do better and 7,000 employees who 
connect together to prove it with discipline, empowerment and 
passion. In 2023, guided by our customers’ needs and with the help 
of our valued manufacturing partners, Toromont made tangible 
progress in our quest, and identified many opportunities to do more 
in 2024 to build an exciting and sustainable future.

Record backlog entering 2023 along with demand for 
rental equipment, product support and CIMCO’s thermal 
solutions provided the basis for positive financial 
performance. Basic earnings per share on a continuing 
operations basis of $6.43 (or $6.38 diluted EPS) increased 
18% from 2022 on revenue growth of 12%.

Supply-chain shortages that were pronounced in 2022 
continued to ease gradually in most but not all product lines, 
allowing us to respond better to customer schedules across 
our markets and territories. 

The rate of inflation, which drove selling prices and operating 
costs higher through 2022 and early 2023, also began to 
moderate. Our focus on traditional operating disciplines, 
including tight control of expense-to-sales ratios and 
rigorous performance tracking at the branch level, remained 
fundamental to our continuous improvement mindset.

Once again, demand for rental equipment was strong with 
rental revenues up 8% over 2022. Toromont responded by 
increasing the size of our heavy and light machine fleets. 
Our heavy rental fleet, now numbering close to 600 units, 
achieved one of the highest levels of financial utilization on 
record. Financial utilization measures rental rates and time 
utilization against original acquisition cost. 

Used machine sales were 4% below the record set in 2022, 
in part a function of greater availability of new equipment 
supply. Toromont Equip, our online marketplace for used 
equipment, attachments, and restored parts added to our 
market presence. In 2023, we used the site to expand our 
reach to customers, including those not previously served. 
Improving product selection and digital functionality will 
continue to receive strong focus going forward. Our machine 
consignment service also proved to be a popular connection 
point for customers who leverage our sales channels to 
market their used equipment. 

Product support revenues increased 11% year over year 
(10% in the Equipment Group and 18% at CIMCO) and 
represented 43% of total revenue. Our shops, parts 
counters, remanufacturing operations and field-service 
teams responded well to demand across our larger installed 
base of equipment. Monitoring hours of machine usage 
allows us to pinpoint the need for maintenance and 
respond to customers proactively. Insight gained also 
makes us more attuned to customer demand signals in 
planning our resources.

Shareholder value creation

On the strength of disciplined capital deployment, 
Toromont’s return on opening shareholders’ equity was 
23.1%, exceeding our goal of 18% over a business cycle. 
Pre-tax return on capital employed (ROCE) was 30.1% 
compared to 32.1% in 2022. Each of our businesses 
operates with its own ROCE target based on capital intensity. 
Strong execution produced good returns, reflecting higher 
investments in working capital to support growth.

Shareholder value creation also came in other tangible 
forms. At its meeting in February 2024, Toromont’s Board 
announced a quarterly dividend of $0.48 per share, 
representing an 11.6% increase in the quarterly dividend 
rate. With this latest move, Toromont has now increased its 
dividend 35 years in a row and consistently paid dividends 
quarterly since listing on the TSX in 1968.

Toromont’s total 5- and 10-year shareholder returns, 
including reinvested dividends, outpaced the S&P/TSX 
Composite Index. Market capitalization at year end 
was $9.6 billion while total enterprise value (market 
capitalization plus debt, net of cash) was $9.2 billion.

Toromont Industries Ltd.

Under Toromont’s Normal Course Issuer Bid, 353,000 common 
shares were repurchased for $37.5 million (an average cost of 
$106.35 per share) during 2023, offsetting the dilutive effect of 
shares issued under the Executive Option Plan. 

COVID-19 lockdowns in 2020, 2021 and 2022 through the 
unprecedented fall and rise in interest rates to stimulate 
and then curb inflation, the nature and pace of change has 
been remarkable. 

Safety performance 

Continuous improvement is the goal in all aspects of our 
business, including safety outcomes. Getting everyone home 
safely every day is our objective. Accordingly, we operate with 
Board-reviewed safety programs designed to mitigate risk 
and create management, team and personal alignment and 
accountability. With consistent focus and effort, 84% of our 
facilities achieved a Total Recordable Injury Rate (TRIR) of 
zero in 2023. Company-wide, TRIR was down 25% from 2022, 
a solid improvement but also an indication that there is an 
opportunity and collective obligation to do better. Please see 
our Sustainability Report for details on safety performance 
and developmental programs for employees.

Management lessons learned 

Like other businesses, Toromont experienced a volatile 
operating environment over the past four years. From 

During this period, we learned valuable lessons about how 
to operate safely, effectively and efficiently to deliver on our 
commitments and gained an elevated appreciation for the 
importance of the technology networks that connect us with 
customers and each other.

The pandemic also allowed us to validate Toromont’s 
business model and stress test the five foundational 
strategies that accompany it. Of those strategies, Maintain 
a Strong Financial Position served us particularly well 
through the lockdown years and was once again on display 
in 2023. Year-end leverage, represented by net debt to 
total capitalization was -17% as cash and equivalents of 
$1.0 billion once again exceeded debt. A year ago, this 
ratio was -14%. This change reflected strong cash flow 
from operations that exceeded significant working capital 
and capital asset investments made to support current 
and future activity levels. Even with these deployments,

Service vehicle replacements also accelerated as supply 
chain pressures eased. This replacement strategy sees 
us sell older models and replace them with new, more 
fuel-efficient units. Since use of service vehicles accounts 
for approximately 60% of Toromont’s carbon footprint, 
fleet optimization is important.

Construction of a 143,000 sq.ft. component remanufacturing 
plant in Bradford was one of the year’s key investments. This 
$70 million facility will open in the second quarter of 2024. 
It will enhance our capacity and efficiency as a circular-
economy contributor by enabling Toromont to remanufacture 
more end-of-life machine components.

Toromont has the financial capacity and flexibility to 
support ongoing growth.

What was most evident during the pandemic is the value 
of having great customers; business activities that are 
essential to society; employees whose passion for excellence 
never wavered; high-quality products; and business partners 
with the strength and wherewithal to continue investing, 
innovating and producing. 

Reinvesting with purpose

Invest in Resources is a core Toromont strategy. In 
2023, net reinvestment in rental fleets, branches, plants 
and other capital assets amounted to $275.4 million. 
Approximately 60% of this sizeable sum was used to 
grow our fleets of heavy, light and power systems rental 
equipment, a move enabled by improved product supply. 

The site will be well equipped with new closed-loop engine 
dynamometers cooled with recycled water, a specialized 
hydraulic and powertrain test bench for transmissions 
and torque converters and the market’s first robotic soda 
cleaning station, all in a CIMCO conditioned-air environment. 
Soda blasting is an environmentally friendly alternative to 
caustic cleaning prior to disassembly. This system can use 
a variety of cleaning agents including walnuts, glass beads 
and sand as the need arises. A CIMCO thermal system, using 
a natural refrigerant, will control humidity and prevent 
flash rust from forming on components.  

At start-up, the plant will employ 160 people, with the 
majority transferring from nearby facilities. Among many 
advantages, the new plant will allow us to test high-
horsepower engines, which were previously shipped 
out of province, and increase specialization in our other 
remanufacturing locations. Notably, Québec City will 
become the centre of excellence for Caterpillar Expanded 
Mining Products. We will also retain one remanufacturing 
site in Concord to focus exclusively on hydraulic cylinders.

Connected for continuous improvement

Toromont’s business model and strategies are consistent 
across our decentralized operations but what truly unites 
us is our system of management. We grant decision-making 
authority to our business units. In exchange, they are 
accountable for continuous improvement. This system of 
empowerment with strategic alignment cascades throughout 
our operations. From 35 years of experience, we believe 
there are many advantages to our brand of decentralization 
– including faster and more market-responsive decision 
making and better, broader management talent development.
As we refreshed our management ranks over the past few 
years, largely through internal promotions, the value of our 
system has been evident.

Turning strategies into action

Toromont Cat’s branches, parts warehouses, remanufacturing
facilities and field service operations were busy in 2023. 
Mining was particularly active. In northern Ontario, we 
delivered and commissioned additional Cat® Command 
793F autonomous haul trucks to serve alongside Cat®
994K loaders and Cat® 6060 electric drive hydraulic mining 
shovels at IAMGOLD’s Côté Gold project. Tethered to the 
electrical grid, Cat® 6060 front shovels can load autonomous 
haul trucks in just four passes, increasing efficiency and 
reducing loading time. Another mining customer purchased 
Cat 798 AC electric drive trucks, each with a payload of up to 
372 tonnes (410 tons). These massive units use hybrid A/C 
electric powertrain technology rather than traditional diesel/
mechanical drives to haul more with greater efficiency. To 
enhance product support, we equipped three more parts 
warehouses on customer sites.

Mine planning, permitting, and construction often stretches 
across years, meaning Toromont must build long-term 
industry connections. We are, with dedicated effort. Looking 
ahead, the federal government’s Critical Minerals Strategy, 
which sets a course for Canada to become the global supplier 
of choice for minerals that are essential to the production of 
battery electric vehicles, is a welcome policy initiative.

In our construction division, road building, the supporting 
aggregate industry, and sewer/water infrastructure 
repairs, provided an off-set to a late-year decline in new 
residential housing developments. In forestry and steel, 
Toromont’s Broaden Product Offerings strategy was assisted 
by Caterpillar’s introduction of a family of Cat MH3000 
material handlers. With a wide range of industry-specific 
boom and stick combinations, these machines proved to be 
popular with customers.

In power systems, the team worked hard to meet the needs 
of industrial, mining, marine and data centre customers 
in a supply-constrained environment. Growth in product 
support, including engine and propulsion system overhauls, 
added to the year’s results. Distributed generation (or power 
created by customers outside the grid) is a growing trend 
that is incentivized in Ontario by the Industrial Conservation 
Initiative. Customers that generate their own power during 
the province’s top five peak demand hours save money. To 
take advantage of this opportunity, a leading Ontario utility 
in partnership with one of our industrial customers recently 
acquired Cat generators and technology to provide power 
on demand at 11 different locations. Caterpillar’s predictive 
software will switch the generators on at precise times 
to replace electricity from the grid. Toromont is there to 
support all parties.

Growth in our workforce of technicians was a key 
accomplishment and consistent with Toromont’s Strengthen 
Product Support strategy. Toromont Cat ended 2023 with 
over 2,000 technicians, our largest team ever, and spent 
heavily on equipping our people with the right tools and 
training. As our installed base grows and ages, and we 
serve more machines proactively through Customer Value 
Agreements, the need to recruit remains strong as does 
our potential to provide product support. With continuous 
demand for rebuilt machines, we dedicated four bays in our 
Candiac, Québec branch for this purpose in early 2024.

Battlefield Equipment Rentals – The Cat Rental Store
benefitted from customer demand for specialized rental 
equipment in core markets: civil infrastructure (bridge 
repairs, road construction, transit projects and water 
treatment) and mining. As machine supply constraints 
eased, higher investment levels enabled an increase in 
rental fleet uploads, which in turn acted as the flywheel for 
a financial model that depends on appropriate equipment 
aging, depreciation and divestiture. A Québec market-
driven shift in product mix that began shortly after we 
acquired Québec and Maritimes (QM) dealership operations 
paid dividends. We look to make further gains, with focus on 
machine and service offerings for road construction. 

Consistent with Toromont’s Invest in Resources strategy, 
Battlefield opened a 17,000 sq.ft. store in Sherbrook, Québec 
in January 2024 as a replacement for another location in the 
city that did not meet our customer experience standards or 
support efficient workflow. The new store includes an on-site 
workshop and water recycling system for equipment cleaning; 
both capabilities that were missing in the previous location.

More rental equipment at our stores carries a Green Leaf 
insignia, a symbol denoting products powered by alternative 
energy. Among many choices, customers can now rent 
equipment such as Cat 300.9D VPS with HPU300 mini 
excavators capable of running on electric and diesel power, 
Terex Genie Z45FE and Z60FE hybrid lifts and ANA Energy 
Boss hybrid generators. With sustainability a growing 
customer priority, we are working with fleet partners to 
expand Green Leaf products.

Toromont Industries Ltd.

Jobsite Industrial Rental Services added to its new 
presence in Western Canada, an example of Toromont’s 
Expand Markets strategy. Anchored by a 16,000 sq.ft. hub 
facility in Edmonton, branches now operate in Fort McMurray 
and Burnaby, as well as Winnipeg. Early progress is promising, 
but more work is needed to elevate our business profile in 
these key markets and improve performance. System wide, 
revenue exceeded that of 2022 despite a quieter year for 
turnaround work in the petrochemical industry. 

SITECH Eastern Canada Ltd. responded well to demand 
for advanced grade control, site positioning and machine 
monitoring systems and related consulting and data 
management services. To aid management decision making, 
we put SITECH’s Québec and Maritimes operations on 
the same rental management system as our other light 
rental operations. 

Toromont Material Handling continued to show good 
progress as a standalone business unit, a status realized six 
years ago. Investments in market coverage included a new 
branch in Woodstock as part of an effort to raise its profile in 
Ontario to match the brand recognition it enjoys in Québec. 
Driving financial utilization of its rental fleet through the 
application of traditional operating disciplines – supported 
by the Toromont Dealer Management System – remains 
a key focus. Applying Toromont’s Strengthen Product 
Support strategy also brought greater attention to growth 
opportunities in parts.

CIMCO Refrigeration leveraged its leadership position 
as a thermal management solutions provider to grow 
throughout North America. Results were best-ever, including 
U.S. operations. Highlights included installations of a CO2
package for the Columbus Blue Jackets of the National 
Hockey League and a natural refrigerant system for a major 
food processing operation in Texas. In Canada, Blatchford, 
Alberta purchased a CIMCO Thermal Force One thermal 
system that provides zero combustion heating and cooling 
for the entire community to meet their decarbonization 
goals.  Environmental stewardship demonstrated by these 
leaders is spreading. Of all CIMCO capital project order 
bookings in 2023, 89% will feature natural, zero emission 
refrigerants including a CO2 package for the Washington 
Capitals as a replacement for Freon. CIMCO’s Net Zero 
Naturally “Green Series” product offerings align with current 
environmental objectives by providing unique, economically 
viable solutions that reduce carbon emissions. 

Operationally, market coverage and project efficiency 
improved with the opening of a 40,000 sq.ft. prefabrication 
facility in Duncan, South Carolina. The order-to-cash 
cycle, which extended during the early years of COVID-19, 
is returning to more normal levels. New software was 
introduced to enhance project management capabilities. 
Additional rigour was brought to bidding processes. 

As an example of Toromont’s Broaden Product Offerings
strategy, CIMCO co-developed the “iQ” control system for 
ice rinks and installed systems at several facilities including 
that of the Los Angeles Kings. It uses an advanced thermal 
camera to measure surface ice temperatures across 91,000 
data points. With better information fed to a smart phone 
app, ice rink operators can now easily pinpoint variations 
in ice quality, adjust building conditions and meet in-game 
reporting requirements. This development has broad 
application not only for professional leagues, but also 
community rinks throughout North America.

Leadership succession

In October 2023, we completed a planned leadership 
change with Mike McMillan succeeding Scott Medhurst 
as President, CEO and Director and John Doolittle joining 
Toromont to take on Mr. McMillan’s former role as Executive 
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. These important 
appointments were the product of a thorough and extensive 
search and vetting process carried out by the Board of 
Directors to ensure Toromont continues to be led by 
experienced, well-qualified executives who understand and 
appreciate the company’s values, traditions and proven way 
of doing business. 

Thanks to Scott Medhurst

Over his 35-year Toromont career, the past 11 as CEO, 
Mr. Medhurst made countless contributions to our business, 
working tirelessly to ensure the successful expansion of 
our Caterpillar dealership territories to Québec and the 
Martimes, ensuring that all Toromont businesses have the 
management talent and depth to excel for the long term 
and leading us thoughtfully through the pandemic. Scott 
deserves and receives our utmost thanks.

We are particularly excited to be part of collaborations 
with Caterpillar, which is using its formidable engineering 
and product development capabilities to help customers 
meet their climate-related goals. Caterpillar is also working
closely with its dealers to align and grow the rental opportunity.
We look forward to contributing to this objective through 
meaningful rental fleet investments.

Toromont will also do its part for environmental sustainability:
our own, through careful stewardship of our assets; and our 
customers, through ongoing development of energy efficient 
and climate-friendly thermal management solutions. Please

Connecting Together

Connect26, our roadmap 
for continuous improvement

In 2024, Toromont embarks on its next three-year business 
plan journey. Entitled Connect26, our plan identifies 
numerous opportunities to improve performance and 
commits us to achieve organic growth by connecting 
people, ideas and solutions together as we deliver 
specialized equipment and services to support our 
customers. The plan’s success factors include:

•

•

•

•

•

recruiting and retaining service technicians

investing in safety, employee development 
and products/capabilities that contribute to a 
sustainable future

leveraging our digital infrastructure to make it easier 
and more rewarding for customers to connect with us

expanding the use of data and analytics to improve 
decision making, productivity and efficiency

encouraging collaborations that will allow us to reach 
new customers and expand Toromont’s leadership 
positions in existing markets

Toromont started 2024 with order backlog of $1.2 billion, 
which provides a solid base of business in an uncertain 
economic environment. Backlog is a function of both 
demand and supply, with both being disrupted by the 
pandemic over the past few years.

We also started the new year with a renewed sense of 
purpose and dedication to our core values, business model, 
strategies and the continuous improvement mindset that 
invigorates our culture and produces consistent results for 
our customers and shareholders. 

As we prepare for an exciting future in the context of 
short-term economic headwinds and market tailwinds, 
we recognize that it is not the gale but the set of the 
sail that counts. We thank all employees and business 
partners for Connecting Together in the ongoing pursuit 
of excellence.

On behalf of our management team and the Board of 
Directors, our utmost thanks goes to our customers and 
shareholders for your ongoing support.

Yours sincerely,

(cid:39)RIMAR(cid:48) O(cid:25)(cid:33)E(cid:26)TI(cid:45)E AND MA(cid:33)OR STRATE(cid:30)IES 

The primary objective of the (cid:28)ompany is to build shareholder value through sustainable and profitable gro(cid:72)th, 
supported  by  a  strong  financial  foundation. To  guide  its  activities  in  pursuit  of  this  objective, Toromont  (cid:72)or(cid:60)s 
to(cid:72)ard  specific,  long(cid:11)term  financial  goals  (see  section  heading  (cid:2)(cid:36)ey  (cid:41)erformance  (cid:38)easures(cid:2)  in  this  (cid:38)(cid:29)(cid:5)A) 
and each of its operating groups consistently employs the follo(cid:72)ing broad strategies(cid:24) 

E(cid:71)pand Mar(cid:58)ets 

Toromont serves diverse mar(cid:60)ets that offer long(cid:11)term potential for profitable expansion. Each operating group 
strives  to  achieve  or  maintain  leading  positions  in  mar(cid:60)ets  served.  Incremental  revenue  is  derived  from 
improved  coverage,  mar(cid:60)et  share  gains  and  geographic  expansion.  Expansion  of  the  installed  base  of 
equipment  provides  the  foundation  for  product  support  gro(cid:72)th  and  leverages  the  fixed  costs  associated  (cid:72)ith 
the (cid:28)ompany(cid:80)s infrastructure. 

Strengt(cid:56)en (cid:39)roduct Support 

Toromont's parts and service business is a significant contributor to overall profitability and serves to stabili(cid:75)e 
results through economic do(cid:72)nturns. (cid:41)roduct support activities also represent opportunities to develop closer 
relationships (cid:72)ith customers and differentiate our product and service offering. The ability to consistently meet 
or  exceed  customers'  expectations  for  service  efficiency  and  quality  is  critical,  as  after(cid:11)mar(cid:60)et  support  is  an 
integral part of the customer(cid:80)s decision(cid:11)ma(cid:60)ing process (cid:72)hen purchasing equipment. 

(cid:25)roaden (cid:39)roduct O(cid:54)(cid:54)erings 

Toromont delivers speciali(cid:75)ed capital equipment to a diverse range of customers and industries. (cid:28)ollectively, 
hundreds  of  thousands  of  different  parts  are  offered  through  the  (cid:28)ompany's  distribution  channels.  The 
(cid:28)ompany expands its customer base through selectively extending product lines and capabilities. In support of 
this  strategy, Toromont  represents  product  lines  that  are  considered  leading  and  generally  best(cid:11)in(cid:11)class  from 
suppliers and business partners (cid:72)ho continually expand and develop their offerings. (cid:44)trong relationships (cid:72)ith 
suppliers and business partners are critical in achieving gro(cid:72)th objectives. 

In(cid:69)est in Resources 

The  combined  (cid:60)no(cid:72)ledge  and  experience  of  Toromont's  people  is  a  (cid:60)ey  competitive  advantage.  (cid:32)ro(cid:72)th  is 
dependent on attracting, retaining and developing employees (cid:72)ith values that are consistent (cid:72)ith Toromont's. A 
highly principled culture, share o(cid:72)nership and profitability(cid:11)based incentive programs result in a close alignment 
of  employee  and  shareholder  interests.  (cid:27)y  investing  in  employee  training  and  development,  the  capabilities 
and  productivity  of  employees  continually  improve  to  better  serve  shareholders,  customers  and  business 
partners. 

Toromont's  information  technology  represents  another  competitive  differentiator  in  the  mar(cid:60)etplace.  The 
(cid:28)ompany's  selective  investments  in  technology,  inclusive  of  e(cid:11)commerce  and  other  digital  initiatives, 
strengthen customer service capabilities, generate ne(cid:72) opportunities for gro(cid:72)th, drive efficiency and increase 
returns to shareholders.

both the Equipment (cid:32)roup and (cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O, lo(cid:72)er relative expenses and higher interest income on cash balances,  
(cid:72)ere  partially  offset  by  lo(cid:72)er  gross  margins.  Rental  and  product  support  revenue  increased  on  greater 
customer  activity,  utili(cid:75)ation  of  the  larger  fleet  and  improved  execution.  (cid:32)eneral  economic  uncertainty  and 
macroeconomic factors such as inflation, higher interest rates, geopolitical instability, and the (cid:28)anadian dollar 
movements  continue  to  challenge  the  business,  as  (cid:72)ell  as  influence  buying  patterns,  and  are  expected  to 
continue to do so as (cid:72)e progress into 2024.

Revenue for the year increased 12% from prior year to $4.6 billion. Equipment (cid:32)roup revenue increased 12%
compared to last year on higher equipment sales, product support revenue and rental activity. (cid:46)sed equipment 
sales  (cid:72)ere  lo(cid:72)er  despite  an  increase  in  rental  fleet  dispositions  of  aged  units,  largely  reflecting  supply  and 
demand  of  equipment.  (cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O  revenue  increased  13%  versus  last  year,  on  higher  pac(cid:60)age  and  product 
support  activity  levels.  (cid:48)hile  (cid:72)e  continue  to  see  improvement  in  the  inflo(cid:72)  of  inventory  through  the  supply 
chain, challenges still exist in some product lines and parts, as (cid:72)ell as customer delays. 

(cid:32)ross  profit  margin  decreased  30  basis  points  ((cid:2)bps(cid:2))  to  26.9%  versus  27.2%  for  last  year.  The  Equipment 
(cid:32)roup reported lo(cid:72)er margins in most areas, coupled (cid:72)ith an unfavourable sales mix, (cid:72)hile (cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O margins 
increased  on  good  execution.  (cid:41)roduct  support  margins  increased  in  both  groups  on  higher  volume  and 
improved operating efficiencies.  

(cid:44)elling and administrative expenses for the year increased $41.2 million or 8% compared to the prior year. In 
2023 property dispositions reduced expenses by $5.0 million (2022 (cid:78) property related gains of $17.7 million). 
Excluding  these  items,  expenses  increased  $28.6  million  or  6%  year  over  year,  reflecting  the  higher  activity 
levels.  (cid:28)ompensation  costs  increased  approximately  $16.4  million,  reflecting  higher  staffing  levels,  regular 
salary increases, and increased profit sharing accruals on the higher income, partially offset by lo(cid:72)er defined 
benefit  pension  expense.  Other  expenses  such  as  training,  travel  and  occupancy  costs  have  increased  as  a 
result  of  higher  activity  levels  and  inflationary  pressures.  Allo(cid:72)ance  for  doubtful  accounts  decreased 
$5.3 million compared to last year on improved aged receivables and good collections. A higher share price in 
the current period resulted in a $1.9 million mar(cid:60)-to-mar(cid:60)et expense on cash(cid:11)settled (cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)s, compared to a
recovery  of  $3.2  million  in  2022,  a  $6.1  million  change.  (cid:44)elling  and  administrative  expenses  (cid:72)ere  40  basis 
points lo(cid:72)er as a percentage of revenue (11.7% versus 12.1% last year).

Operating income increased $85.1 million or 14% in the year on the higher revenue. Operating income margin 
increased 20 bps to 15.2%, reflecting the lo(cid:72)er gross margins.

Interest expense (cid:72)as largely unchanged at $28.1 million due to our term debt and unused credit facility.

Interest and investment income increased $24.3 million or 112% in the year on higher average cash balances 
and higher interest rates on cash deposits.

The effective income tax rate for the year (cid:72)as up slightly to 26.7% compared to 26.6% last year, reflecting the 
lo(cid:72)er capital gains rate on the property dispositions in both years.

Net earnings (including discontinued operations) for the year increased $80.5 million or 18% to $534.7 million
from 2022. (cid:27)asic earnings per share ((cid:2)E(cid:41)(cid:44)(cid:2)) increased $0.98 or 18% to $6.50.

Other comprehensive loss of $17.4 million in the year (2022 (cid:78) comprehensive income of $67.4 million) included 
an  actuarial  gain  on  post(cid:11)employment  benefit  plans  of  $2.1  million  (2022  (cid:78)  actuarial  gain  of  $58.8  million). 
These gains reflect actuarial changes used in the valuation, as (cid:72)ell as changes in the fair value of pension plan 
assets.  Other  comprehensive  income  also  included  a unfavourable  net  change  in  the  fair  value  of  cash  flo(cid:72) 
hedges of $19.0 million (2022 (cid:78) favourable net change of $7.5 million). These changes reflect mar(cid:60)(cid:11)to(cid:11)mar(cid:60)et

The  Equipment  (cid:32)roup  delivered  solid  results  in  the  year  (cid:72)ith  good  mar(cid:60)et  activity  driving  higher  revenue 
across  most  mar(cid:60)ets  and  regions,  supported  by  a  strong  opening  order  bac(cid:60)log  and  gradually  improving 
equipment  availability.  Rental  and  product  support  activity  continued  to  increase,  on  higher  utili(cid:75)ation  of  the 
larger  rental  fleet  and  end  customer  demand,  supported  by  the  larger  technician  (cid:72)or(cid:60)force.  Lo(cid:72)er  gross 
margins and an unfavourable sales mix of higher equipment sales to total revenues (cid:72)ere more than offset by 
lo(cid:72)er relative expenses, resulting in improvements in operating income.

Total equipment revenue (ne(cid:72) and used) increased $258.7 million or 15% compared to 2022, predominantly 
reflecting the inflo(cid:72) and delivery of equipment against the order bac(cid:60)log, coupled (cid:72)ith end customer demand. 
Ne(cid:72)  equipment  sales  increased  20%  in  the  year,  across  all  mar(cid:60)et  segments  and  regions,  as  the  supply  of 
equipment improved. (cid:46)sed equipment sales decreased 4% during the year. (cid:46)sed equipment sales from trades 
and purchases have been lo(cid:72)er in the current year as supply and demand dynamics shifted. (cid:46)sed equipment 
sales also include rental fleet dispositions, (cid:72)hich have increased in the current year after a period of constraint, 
reflecting  fleet  management  decisions  (age  of  the  fleet),  as  (cid:72)ell  as  availability  and  cost  of  ne(cid:72)  equipment. 
Overall, equipment revenue by mar(cid:60)et segments (cid:72)as as follo(cid:72)s for the year(cid:24) construction mar(cid:60)ets higher (cid:9)7%,

Rental  revenue  increased  $35.1  million  or  8%  versus  last  year.  All  mar(cid:60)ets  and  most  regions  (cid:72)ere  up, 
reflecting higher mar(cid:60)et activity, strong execution and an expanded heavy and light equipment fleet. Revenue 
increases in each mar(cid:60)et (cid:72)ere as follo(cid:72)s(cid:24) Light equipment rentals up (cid:9)7%,  heavy equipment rentals (cid:9)11%,

purchase option) (cid:72)as $81.1 million versus $44.7 million at this time last year.

(cid:41)roduct support revenue increased $166.0 million or 10% compared to last year (cid:72)ith increases in both parts 
(up  10%)  and  service  (up  12%). Activity  (cid:72)as  higher  across  all  mar(cid:60)ets  and  in  all  regions  on  good  end  user

(cid:44)elling  and  administrative  expenses  increased  $34.7  million  or  8%  in  2023.  In  2023  property  dispositions 
reduced  expenses  by  $5.0  million  (2022  (cid:78)  property  related  gains  of  $17.7  million).  Excluding  these  items, 
expenses increased $22.0 million or 5% year over year, reflecting the higher activity. (cid:28)ompensation costs (cid:72)ere 
higher in both periods reflecting staffing levels, regular salary increases, and increased profit sharing accruals 
on the higher income. Other expenses such as training, travel and occupancy costs have increased in light of 
activity  levels  and  inflationary  pressures.  Allo(cid:72)ance  for  doubtful  accounts  decreased  $7.3  million,  reflecting 
good  collection  activity  and  improved  aging  of  receivables.  As  a  percentage  of  revenue,  selling  and

(cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O delivered improved results for 2023, (cid:72)ith the advancement on construction schedules against a strong 
order  bac(cid:60)log  and  improved  execution.  (cid:41)roduct  support  activity  continued  to  demonstrate  strong  gro(cid:72)th, 
supported by the larger technician (cid:72)or(cid:60)force. Operating income increased on the higher revenues, improved 
gross  margins,  and  favourable  sales  mix  (a  higher  proportion  of  product  support  revenues  to  total),  partially 
offset by higher expenses.

(cid:41)ac(cid:60)age  sales increased  $14.3  million  or  8%  versus  2022,  (cid:72)ith  increases  in  both  mar(cid:60)ets. Industrial  mar(cid:60)et

Recreational mar(cid:60)et revenue increased 2%, as higher revenue in (cid:28)anada (up 27%) (cid:72)as largely offset by lo(cid:72)er 
(cid:46)(cid:44)  revenue  (do(cid:72)n  28%).  (cid:41)ac(cid:60)age  revenue  reflects  the  progress  of  project  construction  applying  the 
percentage-of-completion method of accounting. This introduces a degree of variability as the timing of projects
and construction schedules are largely under the control of third parties (contractors and end(cid:11)customers). 

(cid:41)roduct support revenue increased $31.9 million or 18% versus 2022 on higher activity levels in both (cid:28)anada
(up  12%)  and  the  (cid:46)(cid:44)  (up  38%).  Activity  levels  continued  to  improve  on  good  customer  demand  and  the

(cid:32)ross profit margin increased 220 basis points versus last year to 26.0%. (cid:41)ac(cid:60)age margins (cid:72)ere up 120 bps, 
on  good  execution  and  the  nature  of  projects  in  process.  (cid:41)roduct  support  margins  increased  80  bps  on
improved  execution  and  higher  volume  of  mar(cid:60)et  activity. A favourable  sales  mix,  (cid:72)ith  a  higher  proportion  of 
product support revenue to total revenue, accounted for 20 bps of the increase.

(cid:44)elling  and  administrative  expenses  increased  $6.5  million  or  11%  versus  last  year.  Allo(cid:72)ance  for  doubtful 
accounts increased $2.0 million on a larger balance of aged receivables and slo(cid:72)er collections. (cid:28)ompensation 
costs increased reflecting staff levels, annual salary increases and higher profit sharing accruals on the higher 
earnings.  Other  expenditures  such  as  travel  and  training  expenses  increased  to  support  activity  and  staffing 
levels.  (cid:31)oreign  exchange  translation  on  (cid:46)(cid:44)  operations  increased  expenses  by  $0.4  million  in  the  year. As  a

reflecting continued focus on expense controls.

Operating  income  increased  by  $13.0  million  or  49%  in  2023,  reflecting  improved  gross  margins  and  higher

Inventories  at  (cid:29)ecember  31,  2023  (cid:72)ere  9% higher  compared  to  (cid:29)ecember  31,  2022,  (cid:72)ith  increases  in  both 
(cid:32)roups(cid:24)

(cid:81) Equipment  (cid:32)roup  inventories  (cid:72)ere  up $87.7  million  or  9% higher  (cid:72)ith  increases  in  equipment 
(up $73.4 million or 13%) and (cid:72)or(cid:60)-in-progress (up $19.3 million or 21%), partly offset by lo(cid:72)er parts 
inventories (do(cid:72)n $5.0 million or 2%). Inventory levels are typically lo(cid:72)est at the end of the year due to 
seasonality, (cid:72)ith inventories building during the year in advance of the busier selling period. Economic 
and  other  factors  including  supply  chain  issues  have  altered  this  pattern  over  the  past  t(cid:72)o  years. 
Ag(cid:48)est inventory at (cid:29)ecember 31, 2022 totalled $21.9 million. 

(cid:81) (cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O  inventories  (cid:72)ere  up $5.6  million  or  16%,  predominantly  led  by  higher  (cid:72)or(cid:60)(cid:11)in(cid:11)process  levels 
(up $6.5 million or 22%), slightly offset by lo(cid:72)er parts inventories (do(cid:72)n $0.8 million or 14%) reflecting 
the progression of construction schedules.

Other current assets are comprised of prepaid expenses and vendor deposits. These vary over time based on 
timing of ordering, receipt of invoice, vendor terms and payment.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities at (cid:29)ecember 31, 2023, (cid:72)ere 6% lo(cid:72)er than at (cid:29)ecember 31, 2022, 
largely reflecting the timing of purchases and payment for inventory and other supplies. This (cid:72)as partly offset 
by  higher  cash(cid:11)settled  (cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)  liability  (higher  share  price)  and  higher  profit  sharing  accruals  on  the  higher 
earnings.

Income tax payable reflects the difference bet(cid:72)een tax installments and current income tax expense.

(cid:29)erivative financial instruments represent the fair value of foreign exchange contracts. (cid:31)luctuations in the value 
of the (cid:28)anadian dollar have led to a cumulative net loss of $13.9 million as at (cid:29)ecember 31, 2023. This is not 
expected to affect net earnings as the unreali(cid:75)ed losses (cid:72)ill offset future gains on the related hedged items, 
either current accounts payable or future transactions. 

(cid:29)ividends  payable  increased  year  over  year  reflecting  the  increased  dividend  rate.  Effective  (cid:72)ith  the 
April  4,  2023  payment,  the  quarterly  dividend  rate  (cid:72)as  increased  10.3%  from  $0.39  per  share  to  $0.43  per 
share.

(cid:29)eferred revenue and contract liabilities represent billings to customers in excess of revenue recogni(cid:75)ed.

(cid:81)

In  the  Equipment  (cid:32)roup,  these  balances  arise  due  to(cid:24)  progress  billings  from  the  sale  of  po(cid:72)er  and 
energy  systems(cid:25)  long(cid:11)term  product  support  maintenance  contracts(cid:25)  and,  customer  deposits  for 
equipment  to  be  delivered  in  the  future.  These  balances  increased  $33.7  million  or  12.2%,  in  2023, 
generally  on  timing  of  progress  billings  under  long(cid:11)term  maintenance  contracts,  as  (cid:72)ell  as  customer 
deposits for future equipment deliveries, largely for the mining industry.

(cid:81) At (cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O, these balances arise on progress billings from the sale of refrigeration pac(cid:60)ages and vary 
depending  on  timing  of  billings  compared  to  customer(cid:80)s  construction  schedules.  These  balances  
increased  $17.1  million  or  51.2%,  reflecting  the  timing  of  billings  compared  to  revenue  recogni(cid:75)ed 
under the percentage(cid:11)of(cid:11)completion method.  

(cid:30)ood(cid:70)ill and Intangi(cid:50)les

The (cid:28)ompany performs impairment tests on its good(cid:72)ill and intangibles (cid:72)ith indefinite lives on an annual basis 
or as (cid:72)arranted by events or circumstances. The assessment entails estimating the fair value of operations to 
(cid:72)hich  the  good(cid:72)ill  and  intangibles  relate  using  the  fair  value  less  cost  to  sell  valuation  method.  This 
assessment  affirmed  good(cid:72)ill  and  intangibles  values  as  at  (cid:29)ecember  31, 2023,  as  outlined  in  note  9  of  the 
notes to the annual consolidated financial statements.

Employee S(cid:56)are O(cid:70)ners(cid:56)ip 

The  (cid:28)ompany  employs  a  variety  of  share(cid:11)based  compensation  plans  to  align  employees'  interests  (cid:72)ith 
corporate  objectives.  (cid:28)ertain  programs  are  offered  to  to  all  employees,  (cid:72)hile  other  programs  are  offered 
selectively to executives, senior managers and directors.

Executive (cid:44)toc(cid:60) Option (cid:41)lan

(cid:44)toc(cid:60) options have a 10(cid:11)year life, vest 20% per year on each anniversary date of the grant and are exercisable 
at  the  designated  common  share  price,  (cid:72)hich  is  fixed  at  prevailing  mar(cid:60)et  prices  at  the  date  the  option  is

Long(cid:11)Term Incentive (cid:41)rogram

Amendments  to  the  LTI(cid:41)  (cid:72)ere  effective  in  early  2022,  the  (cid:28)ompany  introduced  performance  share  units 
((cid:2)(cid:41)(cid:44)(cid:46)s(cid:2)), restricted share units ((cid:2)R(cid:44)(cid:46)s(cid:2)) and executive deferred share units ((cid:2)E(cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)s(cid:2)). The (cid:28)ompany has the 
ability to grant options and a(cid:72)ards under each of these plans. The (cid:28)ompany intends that total incentive a(cid:72)ard

time of grant by the (cid:27)oard of (cid:29)irectors. The maximum number of common shares reserved for issuance under 
the LTI(cid:41) is in aggregate 750,000.

A  total  of  14,396  restricted  share  units  ((cid:2)R(cid:44)(cid:46)s(cid:2))  and  56,784  performance  share  units  ((cid:2)(cid:41)(cid:44)(cid:46)s(cid:2))  (cid:72)ere

Employee (cid:44)hare (cid:41)urchase (cid:41)lan

Employees may purchase shares by (cid:72)ay of payroll deductions. The (cid:28)ompany matches employee contributions 
at  a  rate  of  $1  for  every  $3  contributed,  to  a  maximum  of  2.5%  of  an  employee's  base  salary  per  annum. 
(cid:28)ompany contributions prior to 2019 vested to the employee immediately, (cid:72)hile contributions in 2019 on(cid:72)ards

(cid:29)eferred (cid:44)hare (cid:46)nits ((cid:2)(cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)(cid:2))

A (cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46) is a notional unit that reflects the mar(cid:60)et value of a single Toromont common share and generally vests 
immediately. (cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)s may be redeemed only on cessation of employment or directorship. (cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)s have dividend 
equivalent rights. Executives and senior managers may elect, on an annual basis, to receive all or a portion of 
their  performance  incentive  bonus  in  (cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)s.  Non(cid:11)employee  directors  received  55%  of  their  annual 
compensation in the form of (cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)s and may also elect to receive some or all of their remainder compensation 
in  (cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)s.  The  (cid:28)ompany  records  the  cost  of  the  (cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)  plan  as  compensation  expense  in  selling  and

payable and accrued liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial position. 

As  at  (cid:29)ecember  31,  2023,  33,360  share(cid:11)settled  (cid:29)(cid:44)(cid:46)s  (cid:72)ere  outstanding  (2022  (cid:78)  7,534  units).  (cid:44)hare(cid:11)settled

Employee (cid:29)uture (cid:25)ene(cid:54)its 

The (cid:28)ompany sponsors pension arrangements for substantially all of its employees. These include(cid:24)

(cid:81) (cid:29)efined contribution plans, including 401((cid:60)) matched savings plans for employees in the (cid:46)(cid:44), covering 

the largest segment of employees, including all ne(cid:72) hires(cid:25) 

(cid:81) (cid:29)efined benefit pension plans(cid:25) and,
(cid:81) Other post(cid:11)employment benefit plans for certain grandfathered employees. 

(cid:28)ertain unioni(cid:75)ed employees do not participate in (cid:28)ompany(cid:11)sponsored plans, and contributions are made to 
their retirement programs in accordance (cid:72)ith the respective collective bargaining agreements.

(cid:29)efined (cid:28)ontribution (cid:41)lans

In the case of defined contribution plans, regular contributions are made to the individual employee accounts, 
(cid:72)hich are administered by a plan trustee in accordance (cid:72)ith the plan documents. As at (cid:29)ecember 31, 2023, 
approximately 4,600 employees participated in (cid:28)ompany(cid:11)sponsored defined contribution plans. 

(cid:29)efined (cid:27)enefit (cid:41)ension (cid:41)lans

The (cid:28)ompany sponsors defined benefit plans, (cid:72)hich provide pension benefits for approximately 1,100 active 
employees. All (cid:41)lans are administered by a separate (cid:31)und that is legally separate from the (cid:28)ompany, (cid:72)ith the 
exception of the Executive (cid:41)lan described belo(cid:72). 

The  funded  status  of  these  plans  improved  by  $6.1  million  during  2023  (a  reduction  in  post  employment 
obligations). Actuarial gains, largely related to a higher discount rate reduced the defined benefit obligation by 
$12.7  million.  (cid:44)tronger  capital  mar(cid:60)ets  resulted  in  a  positive  return  on  plan  assets,  increasing  the  funded 
position by $13.7 million, net of the interest expense on the obligation. 

The Executive (cid:41)lan is a supplemental plan and is solely the obligation of the (cid:28)ompany. All members of the plan 
are retired. The (cid:28)ompany is not obligated to fund the plan but is obligated to pay benefits under the terms of 
the plan as they come due. At (cid:29)ecember 31, 2023, the (cid:28)ompany has posted letters of credit in the amount of 
$11.8 million to secure the obligations under this plan. 

A  (cid:60)ey  assumption  in  pension  accounting  is  the  discount  rate.  This  rate  is  set  (cid:72)ith  regard  to  the  yield  on 
high-quality corporate bonds of similar average duration to the cash flo(cid:72) liabilities of the (cid:41)lans. (cid:49)ields are
volatile and can deviate significantly from period to period.

(cid:29)ue  to  the  si(cid:75)e,  complexity  and  nature  of  the  (cid:28)ompany's  operations,  various  legal  matters  are  pending. 
Exposure  to  these  claims  is  mitigated  through  levels  of  insurance  coverage  considered  appropriate  by 
management  and  by  active  management  of  these  matters.  In  the  opinion  of  management,  none  of  these 
matters (cid:72)ill have a material effect on the (cid:28)ompany's financial position or results of operations. 

Normal (cid:26)ourse Issuer (cid:25)id ("N(cid:26)I(cid:25)") 

The (cid:28)ompany's N(cid:28)I(cid:27) program (cid:72)as rene(cid:72)ed in (cid:44)eptember 2023. The current issuer bid allo(cid:72)s the (cid:28)ompany to 
purchase up to 8.2 million common shares during the 12-month period ending (cid:44)eptember 18, 2024. All shares
purchased under the bid (cid:72)ill be cancelled.

The  (cid:28)ompany  purchased  and  cancelled  353,000  common  shares  for  $37.5  million  (average  cost  of 
$106.35 per share, including transaction costs) during the year ended (cid:29)ecember 31, 2023.

The (cid:28)ompany maintains an Automatic (cid:44)hare (cid:41)urchase (cid:41)lan ((cid:2)A(cid:44)(cid:41)(cid:41)(cid:2)) (cid:72)ith a bro(cid:60)er to enable the purchase of 
common  shares  under  the  N(cid:28)I(cid:27)  during  regular  trading  blac(cid:60)out  periods.  The  volume  of  the  purchases  are 
determined by the bro(cid:60)er based on share price and maximum volume parameters established by the (cid:28)ompany  
prior  to  the  commencement  of  each  blac(cid:60)out  period.  As  at  (cid:29)ecember  31,  2023,  an  obligation  for  the 
repurchase of shares of $12.5 million (cid:72)as recogni(cid:75)ed under the A(cid:44)(cid:41)(cid:41).

The (cid:28)ompany has a shareholder rights plan, (cid:72)hich is designed to encourage the fair treatment of shareholders 
in connection (cid:72)ith any ta(cid:60)eover offer. Rights issued under the plan become exercisable (cid:72)hen a person, and

Di(cid:69)idends

Toromont pays a quarterly dividend on its outstanding common shares and has historically targeted a dividend 
rate of approximately 30 (cid:11) 40% of trailing earnings from continuing operations over the business cycle.

In  (cid:31)ebruary  2023,  the  quarterly  dividend  (cid:72)as  increased  by  10.3%  or  4  cents  per  share,  to  43  cents  per 
common  share,  effective  (cid:72)ith  the  April  payment.  In  2023,  the  (cid:28)ompany  declared  dividends  of  $1.72  per 
common share (2022 (cid:78) $1.56 per common share). 

(cid:28)onsidering  the  (cid:28)ompany's  strong  financial  position  and  positive  long(cid:11)term  outloo(cid:60),  the  (cid:27)oard  of  (cid:29)irectors 
increased the quarterly dividend by 11.6% to 48 cents per share effective (cid:72)ith the dividend payable on April 4, 
2024, to shareholders on record on (cid:38)arch 8, 2024. Toromont has paid dividends every year since 1968 and 
this is the 35th consecutive year of dividend increases.

Toromont's  liquidity  requirements  can  be  met  through  a  variety  of  sources,  including  cash  on  hand,  cash 
generated from operations, long and short(cid:11)term borro(cid:72)ings and the issuance of common shares. (cid:27)orro(cid:72)ings 
are obtained through a variety of senior debentures, notes payable and committed credit facilities. 

Toromont's debt portfolio is unsecured, unsubordinated and ran(cid:60)s pari passu.

Non(cid:11)cash (cid:72)or(cid:60)ing capital and other used cash in 2023, as (cid:72)or(cid:60)ing capital levels increased on higher activity 
levels. Accounts receivable and inventory both increased reflective of activity, (cid:72)hile accounts payable reduced 
on timing of payment to vendors. This (cid:72)as partially offset by higher customer deposits received on future order 
delivery.

Non(cid:11)cash  (cid:72)or(cid:60)ing  capital  also  used  cash  in  2022,  as  higher  inventory  and  account  receivables,  (cid:72)ere  only

Net  rental  fleet  additions  (purchases  less  proceeds  of  dispositions)  (cid:72)ere  relatively  unchanged  compared  to 
2022.  The  (cid:28)ompany  continued  to  investment  in  both  the  heavy  and  light  equipment  rental  fleets  across

Over  the  same  five(cid:11)year  period,  revenue  gro(cid:72)th  has  been  constrained  at  times  by  a  number  of  factors 
including(cid:24) 
(cid:81)

The (cid:28)O(cid:47)I(cid:29)(cid:11)19 pandemic, declared in (cid:38)arch 2020, (cid:72)hich resulted in a significant do(cid:72)nturn in economic 
activity  and  disruption  of  normal  operations.  (cid:44)ite  restrictions  and  closures  impacted  the  timing  of 
construction and delivery schedules, as (cid:72)ell as product supply and demand, 
Inability to source equipment and parts from suppliers to meet customer demand or delivery schedules, 
as a result of specific supplier issues or more recently due to global supply chain disruption caused by 
the pandemic(cid:25)

(cid:81)

(cid:81) Economic (cid:72)ea(cid:60)ness and uncertainty, both generally and in specific mar(cid:60)ets or sectors(cid:25) 
(cid:81) (cid:32)eopolitical developments(cid:25)
(cid:81) (cid:47)olatility in commodity prices(cid:25)
(cid:81) (cid:28)ompetitive conditions(cid:25) 
(cid:81)
(cid:81)

Inflationary pressures and rising interest rates(cid:25) and
Inability to hire necessary s(cid:60)illed technicians to service mar(cid:60)et demand.

(cid:28)hanges  in  the  (cid:28)anadian(cid:13)(cid:46)(cid:44)  exchange  rate  also  affect  reported  revenue  as  the  exchange  rate  impacts  the 
purchase  price  of  equipment  that,  in  turn,  is  reflected  in  selling  prices.  (cid:44)ince  2019,  the  average  annual 
exchange  rate  of  the  (cid:28)anadian  dollar  against  the  (cid:46)(cid:44)  dollar  has  varied  from  $0.74  to  $0.80,  ho(cid:72)ever,  there 
have been periods of higher volatility, (cid:72)ith the dollar ranging from a lo(cid:72) of $0.69 to a high of $0.83.

Toromont  continues  to  invest  in  its  resources,  including  investment  in  information  technology,  in  part  to 
increase productivity levels, as (cid:72)ell as to maintain our systems to be relevant and secure in the ever(cid:11)changing 
technological environment in (cid:72)hich (cid:72)e operate. 

Toromont continues to maintain a strong balance sheet. Leverage, as represented by the ratio of net debt to 
total  capitali(cid:75)ation,  (cid:72)as  (cid:11)17%  at  the  end  of  2023  compared  to  (cid:11)14%  at  the  end  of  2022.  (cid:44)ince  2019,  strong 
cash  generation  has  allo(cid:72)ed  the  (cid:28)ompany  to  invest  in  the  business,  reduce  debt  levels  (cid:72)hile  building  cash 
balances.

Toromont  has  paid  dividends  consistently  since  1968  and  has  increased  the  dividend  in  each  of  the  last 
35 years. The (cid:28)ompany declared dividends of $1.72 per common share in 2023, or $0.43 per quarter (2022 (cid:78)
$1.56 per common share (increase of 10.3%).

Interest income increased $4.5 million on higher interest rates and higher average cash balances.

The effective income tax rate for the fourth quarter (cid:72)as 26.8% compared to 25.4% in 2022, mainly as a result 
of the lo(cid:72)er capital gains rate on the property dispositions.

Revenue  in  the  fourth  quarter  increased  on  the  continued  stronger  product  support  activity  levels.  (cid:41)ac(cid:60)age

higher revenue contribution.

(cid:41)ac(cid:60)age  revenue  decreased  $4.0  million  or  8%  in  the  quarter  compared  to  last  year,  as  equipment  supply 
issues and customer delays have deferred some projects into 2024. Recreational revenues (cid:72)ere up 25%, but

technician base continues to support activity levels.

(cid:32)ross  margins  decreased  100  bps  in  the  quarter  versus  the  comparable  period  in  2022.  (cid:41)roduct  support

(cid:44)elling and administrative expenses increased $1.4 million or 9%. Allo(cid:72)ance for doubtful accounts decreased 
$0.7  million  from  the  similar  period  last  year  reflecting  focused  efforts  on  collections.  (cid:28)ompensation  costs 
increased  reflecting,  higher  staffing  levels,  annual  salary  increases  and  higher  profit  sharing  accruals  on  the 
higher  activity  levels. All  other  expenses  such  as,  travel  and  training,  insurance  and  information  technology

Operating income decreased $1.7 million in the quarter versus a year ago, as higher revenue (cid:72)as dampened 
by lo(cid:72)er gross margins and higher selling and administrative expenses. As a percentage of revenue, operating 
income decreased to 12.4% in 2023, from 14.5% in 2022.

Interim  period  revenue  and  earnings  historically  reflect  variability  from  quarter  to  quarter  due  to  seasonality. 
The  pandemic  and  resulting  impact  on  the  economy,  including  global  supply  chains,  has  affected  seasonal 
trends in recent periods sho(cid:72)n and may result in continued variations to historically experienced trends.

The  Equipment  (cid:32)roup  has  historically  had  a  distinct  seasonal  trend  in  activity  levels.  Lo(cid:72)er  revenue  is 
recorded during the first quarter due to (cid:72)inter shutdo(cid:72)ns in the construction industry. The fourth quarter had 
typically  been  the  strongest  due  in  part  to  the  timing  of  customers'  capital  investment  decisions,  delivery  of 
equipment from suppliers for customer(cid:11)specific orders and conversions of equipment on rent (cid:72)ith a purchase 
option. This pattern is impacted by the timing of significant sales to mining and other customers, resulting from 
the  timing  of  mine  site  development  and  access,  and  construction  project  schedules. This  trend  can  also  be 
impacted during periods of equipment supply constraints from suppliers. 

(cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O  has  also  had  a  distinct  seasonal  trend  in  results  historically,  as  the  timing  of  construction  activity 
impacts revenue recognition under percentage(cid:11)of(cid:11)completion accounting. Revenue is typically lo(cid:72)er during the 
first quarter as (cid:72)inter (cid:72)eather slo(cid:72)s do(cid:72)n construction schedules. Revenue increases in subsequent quarters 
as  construction  schedules  ramp  up.  This  trend  can  be  impacted  by  governmental  funding  initiatives,  supply 
constraints  and  the  customer's  timing  of  significant  industrial  projects.  (cid:44)equential  comparisons  are  also 
impacted by (cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O's relatively high fixed cost structure.

(cid:33)istorically, inventories have increased through the year to meet the expected demand for higher deliveries in 
the third and fourth quarter. This trend can be impacted by equipment and parts availability. These seasonal 
sales trends also typically lead to accounts receivable to be at their highest level at year-end.

In  2022,  patterns  (cid:72)ere  disrupted  by  supply  chain  pressures  impacting  the  timing  of  receipt  and  delivery  of 
products and services to final customers. In 2023, (cid:72)e sa(cid:72) gradual improvements to supply chain availability 
across most of our product offerings, although constraints in some areas still exist.

Revenue increased 12% in 2023 versus the prior year. Equipment (cid:32)roup revenue increased 12% on gro(cid:72)th in 
equipment sales, rental revenue and product support activity, reflecting the increase in inflo(cid:72) and delivery of 
equipment,  along  (cid:72)ith  end  customer  demand.  (cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O  revenue  increased  13%  versus  a  tough  comparable, 
(cid:72)ith the advancement on construction schedules against a strong order bac(cid:60)log and improved execution, (cid:72)hile 
product support activity continued to increase year over year (cid:72)ith the hiring of more technicians and increased 
customer  demand.  (cid:32)eneral  macroeconomic  factors  such  as  inflation,  higher  interest  rates,  geopolitical 
developments  and  (cid:28)anadian  dollar  movements  continued  to  challenge  the  business,  as  (cid:72)ell  as  influence 
buying patterns.

Revenue  increased  9%  in  2022  compared  to  2021.  Equipment  (cid:32)roup  revenue  increased  10%  on  gro(cid:72)th  in 
equipment sales, rental revenue and product support activity, reflecting the increase in demand as pandemic 
restrictions  eased  compared  to  2021.  (cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O  revenue  decreased  3%  versus  a  tough  comparable,  (cid:72)hich

Net earnings increased 18% in 2023, mainly reflecting the 12% increase in revenue, partially offset by higher 
selling and administrative expenses on increased activity. Net financing costs (cid:72)ere significantly lo(cid:72)er, due to 
the higher interest earned on cash balances year over year.

Net  earnings  increased  36%  in  2022,  mainly  reflecting  the  9%  increase  in  revenue  and  improved  gross 
margins  in  both  the  Equipment  (cid:32)roup  and  (cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O,  partially  offset  by  higher  selling  and  administrative 
expenses. Net financing costs (cid:72)ere lo(cid:72)er, on higher interest earned on cash balances year over year. 

(cid:29)ividends  have  generally  increased  in  proportion  to  trailing  earnings  gro(cid:72)th.  The  quarterly  dividend  rate 
increased(cid:24) in 2021 by 12.9% to $0.35 per share(cid:25) in 2022 by 11.4% to $0.39(cid:25) and in 2023 by 10.3% to $0.43 per 
share. The (cid:28)ompany has paid dividends every year since 1968. 

Total assets increased 9% in 2023, largely on higher cash balances and increased other (cid:72)or(cid:60)ing capital and 
investment  levels  in  support  of  elevated  activity  levels. Although  supply  constraints  have  improved  on  most 
product  lines,  inventory  levels  increased  due  to  demand  signals,  as  (cid:72)ell  as  recent  input  price  increases  and 
inflationary  impacts.  Accounts  receivable  increased  on  the  higher  trailing  revenue.  Investments  in  capital 
assets  have  been  made  to  support  gro(cid:72)th  initiatives  and  expand  the  rental  fleets.  In  2022,  total  assets 
increased 17% compared to 2021, reflecting higher (cid:72)or(cid:60)ing capital and other investment levels in support of 
increased activity levels. Inventory levels increased in light of strengthened demand signals and a tight supply 
environment. Accounts receivable increased on higher activity and (cid:72)ea(cid:60)er collection activity, (cid:72)hich lead to an 
increase in (cid:29)(cid:44)O. Increased investment in capital assets (cid:72)ere also made to support mar(cid:60)et share expansion 
and rental fleets.

Long(cid:11)term debt (cid:72)as largely unchanged over the three year period noted. (cid:29)uring 2021, the (cid:28)ompany rene(cid:72)ed 
and extended the $500 million revolving credit facility to mature in November 2026.

RIS(cid:34)S AND RIS(cid:34) MANA(cid:30)EMENT

In the normal course of business, Toromont is exposed to ris(cid:60)s that may potentially impact its business, results 
of  operations  and  financial  condition.  The  (cid:28)ompany  and  each  operating  segment  employ  ris(cid:60)  management 
strategies designed to identify, mitigate and report on these ris(cid:60)s.

(cid:48)e maintain a strong ris(cid:60) management culture to protect and enhance shareholder value. The (cid:27)oard revie(cid:72)s 
all material ris(cid:60)s on an annual basis. The Audit (cid:28)ommittee and (cid:27)oard also revie(cid:72)s the adequacy of disclosures 
of (cid:60)ey ris(cid:60)s in our AI(cid:31), (cid:38)(cid:29)(cid:5)A and financial statements on a quarterly and annual basis, as applicable.

(cid:25)usiness (cid:26)ycle

Expenditures  on  capital  goods  have  historically  been  cyclical,  reflecting  a  variety  of  factors  including  interest 
rates,  foreign  exchange  rates,  consumer  and  business  confidence,  commodity  prices,  corporate  profits, 
inflation, geo(cid:11)political factors impacting the economy, credit conditions and the availability of capital to finance 
purchases, and the level of government infrastructure spending. Toromont's customers are typically affected, to 
varying degrees, by these factors and trends in the general business cycle as (cid:72)ell as (cid:72)ithin  their  respective 
mar(cid:60)ets on both a global and local level. As a result, Toromont's financial performance is affected by the impact 
of such business cycles on the (cid:28)ompany(cid:80)s customer base.

(cid:28)ommodity  prices,  and,  in  particular,  changes  in  the  vie(cid:72)  on  long(cid:11)term  trends,  affect  demand  for  the 
(cid:28)ompany's products and services in the Equipment (cid:32)roup. (cid:28)ommodity price movements in base and precious 
metals  sectors  in  particular  can  have  an  impact  on  customers'  demands  for  equipment  and  services.  Lo(cid:72)er 
commodity  prices  reduces  short  term  demand  as  development  of  ne(cid:72)  and  existing  projects,  along  (cid:72)ith 
production  levels,  may  be  curtailed  or  deferred,  leading  to  less  demand  for  heavy  equipment,  parts  and 
service.

(cid:48)e  rely  on  (cid:28)aterpillar  to  supply  financing  to  our  customers.  In  periods  of  global  credit  mar(cid:60)et  disruption, 
(cid:28)aterpillar may tighten sources or terms of financing for our customers. In the current economic climate, our 
customers  may  have  limited  access  to  financing  from  (cid:28)aterpillar  or  alternate  sources  such  as  financial 
institutions. (cid:29)isruption in (cid:28)aterpillar's or our customers' access to liquidity, due to the effects of the pandemic 
or  other(cid:72)ise,  could  have  a  material  adverse  impact  on  our  business,  results  of  operations  and  financial 
condition.

The  business  of  the  (cid:28)ompany  is  diversified  across  a  (cid:72)ide  range  of  industry  mar(cid:60)et  segments,  serving  to 
temper  the  effects  of  business  cycles  on  consolidated  results.  (cid:28)ontinued  diversification  strategies  such  as 
expanding  the  (cid:28)ompany's  customer  base,  broadening  product  offerings  and  geographic  diversification  are 
designed  to  moderate  business  cycle  impacts.  (cid:41)roduct  support  activity  has  been,  and  (cid:72)ill  continue  to  be, 
fundamental to the mitigation of do(cid:72)nturns in the business cycle as it is typically subject to less volatility than 
equipment  supply  activities.  (cid:48)e  mitigate  the  economic  ris(cid:60)s  associated  (cid:72)ith  lo(cid:72)er  business  volumes  at  a 
regional  level  through  cost  reduction  initiatives  and  through  constant  evaluation  of  efficiency  and  process 
improvements. No assurances can be given that our mitigating steps (cid:72)ill offset the impact of these economic 
ris(cid:60)s.

(cid:39)roduct and Supply

The  Equipment  (cid:32)roup  purchases  most  of  its  equipment  inventories  and  parts  from  (cid:28)aterpillar  Inc. 
((cid:2)(cid:28)aterpillar(cid:2))  under  a  dealership  agreement  that  dates  bac(cid:60)  to  1993.  As  is  customary  in  distribution 
arrangements  of  this  type,  the  agreement  (cid:72)ith  (cid:28)aterpillar  can  be  terminated  by  either  party  upon  90  days' 
notice.  In  the  event  (cid:28)aterpillar  terminates,  it  must  repurchase  substantially  all  inventories  of  ne(cid:72)  equipment 
and  parts  at  cost.  Toromont  has  maintained  an  excellent  relationship  (cid:72)ith  (cid:28)aterpillar  since  inception  and 
management expects this (cid:72)ill continue going for(cid:72)ard.

Toromont  is  dependent  on  the  continued  mar(cid:60)et  acceptance  of  (cid:28)aterpillar's  products.  It  is  believed  that 
(cid:28)aterpillar  has  a  solid  reputation  as  a  quality  manufacturer,  (cid:72)ith  excellent  brand  recognition  and  customer 
support as (cid:72)ell as strong mar(cid:60)et shares in many of the mar(cid:60)ets it serves. (cid:33)o(cid:72)ever, there can be no assurance 
that  (cid:28)aterpillar  (cid:72)ill  be  able  to  maintain  its  reputation  and  mar(cid:60)et  position  in  the  future.  If  (cid:28)aterpillar  is 
unsuccessful in developing and enhancing its product lines to meet evolving customer needs, including no(cid:13)lo(cid:72) 
carbon alternatives to support customer energy transition and net (cid:75)ero goals, is unable to maintain the quality 
of  its  products,  or  is  unable  to  provide  its  products  at  competitive  prices,  mar(cid:60)et  acceptance  for  (cid:28)aterpillar 
products may deteriorate over time. Any resulting decrease in the demand for (cid:28)aterpillar products could have a 
material adverse impact on the (cid:28)ompany's business, results of operations and future prospects.

Toromont  is  also  dependent  on  (cid:28)aterpillar  for  timely  supply  of  equipment  and  parts  to  meet  our  customers' 
demand  for  equipment  deliveries  and  product  support  services.  (cid:31)rom  time  to  time  during  periods  of  intense 
demand  and(cid:13)or  supply  chain  disruptions,  (cid:28)aterpillar  may  find  it  necessary  to  allocate  its  supply  of  particular 
products  among  its  dealers.  (cid:44)uch  allocations  of  supply  have  not  in  the  past  proven  to  be  a  significant 
impediment in the conduct of business. (cid:48)hen supply constraints have occurred in the past, (cid:72)e have been able 
to  lessen  the  impact  by  utili(cid:75)ing  our  rental  assets,  used  equipment,  remanufacturing  capabilities,  and  other 
sources (such as the dealer net(cid:72)or(cid:60)) to meet demand, but there can be no assurance of continued success in 
this  area.  (cid:48)e  continue  to  monitor  these  issues  as  they  could  adversely  affect  our  business,  results  of 
operations, and financial condition. 

The  general  supply  chain  is  also  affected  by  other  factors,  including  global  demand  and  economic  factors, 
more  recently  resulting  in  (cid:60)ey  component  and  parts  shortages  and  longer  order  and  shipment  times  for 
equipment and parts. (cid:48)e continue to monitor these issues as they could adversely affect our business, results 
of operations, and financial condition.

In  addition,  ne(cid:72)  digital  and  other  technologies  and  advancements  to  equipment  in  the  mar(cid:60)et,  such  as 
equipment electrification, can become disruptive to our operations, mar(cid:60)et share and business model. (cid:48)e scan 
continuously  for  emerging  digital  and  other  technologies  and  equipment  advancements  and  their  potential 
impacts.  In  order  to  face  this  disruption  ris(cid:60),  our  digital  and  technology  solutions  initiatives  are  focused  on 
investigating emerging digital technologies to determine ho(cid:72) they can impact customers and our core business 
opportunities, improving the customer experience, and identifying and pursuing ne(cid:72) opportunities for revenue 
generation in the digitally enabled value(cid:11)added services area. (cid:48)hile execution performance to date has been 
strong, our failure to meet these objectives could have an adverse impact on our business.

(cid:26)ompetition

The (cid:28)ompany competes (cid:72)ith a large number of international, national, regional and local suppliers in each of 
its mar(cid:60)ets. Although price competition can be strong, there are a number of factors that have enhanced the 
(cid:28)ompany's  ability  to  compete  throughout  its  mar(cid:60)et  areas  including  the  range  and  quality  of  products  and 
services  including  digital  performance  solutions,  ability  to  meet  sophisticated  customer  requirements, 
distribution  capabilities  including  number  and  proximity  of  locations,  financing  offered  by  (cid:28)aterpillar  (cid:31)inance, 
e-commerce solutions, reputation and financial strength.

(cid:48)e may encounter increased competition in the future through ne(cid:72) entrants in the mar(cid:60)et and the expansion 
of suppliers' e-commerce channels for parts and equipment sales, (cid:72)hich may also put pressure on prices. (cid:48)e
may also encounter competition through the introduction of digitally enabled or digitally enhanced value-added
services from third parties, including potential ne(cid:72) non(cid:11)traditional entrants into the mar(cid:60)et. In addition, pressure 
on  prices  may  occur  as  a  result  of  increased  data  in  the  mar(cid:60)etplace,  increasing  price  transparency  and 
customers' pursuit of value-added services, (cid:72)hich (cid:72)ould put commoditi(cid:75)ation pressure on equipment, core
physical parts and service sales.

Increased competitive pressures or the inability of the (cid:28)ompany to maintain the factors that have enhanced its 
competitive position to date could adversely affect the (cid:28)ompany(cid:80)s business, results of operations or financial 
condition.

(cid:31)ealt(cid:56) and Sa(cid:54)ety

(cid:28)ertain ha(cid:75)ards and ris(cid:60)s are inherent in the (cid:28)ompany's operations, (cid:72)ith the potential for serious injury, loss of 
life and damage to property, (cid:72)hich could result in negative financial and(cid:13)or reputational impacts. 

To  mitigate  these  ris(cid:60)s,  a  comprehensive  and  standardi(cid:75)ed  health  and  safety  program  is  in  place,  (cid:72)hich 
includes leadership (cid:72)al(cid:60)throughs, training, inspections, supervisory observations, safety standards for critical 
operations, safe (cid:72)or(cid:60) procedures, job ha(cid:75)ard assessments, incident investigations, emergency preparedness, 
industrial  hygiene  assessments  and  other  measures  focused  on  maintaining  a  safe  and  healthy  (cid:72)or(cid:60) 
environment. To ma(cid:60)e the application of the different safety processes easier for employees and enable data 
analysis, some of the (cid:60)ey processes are supported by digital tools such as electronic job ha(cid:75)ard assessments 
and  vehicle  monitoring  systems.  No  assurance  can  be  given  that  these  mitigating  steps  (cid:72)ill  eliminate  these 
ris(cid:60)s and the potential for negative financial and(cid:13)or reputational impacts. 

(cid:31)urther  information  on  the  (cid:28)ompany's  health  and  safety  practices  and  programs  can  be  found  in  the

(cid:34)ey (cid:39)ersonnel  

Our  success  in  achieving  our  goals  is  largely  dependent  on  the  abilities  and  experience  of  our  senior 
management team and other (cid:60)ey personnel. Our future performance (cid:72)ill also depend on our ability to attract, 
develop, motivate and retain highly qualified diverse and inclusive talent in all areas of our business and, as 
applicable,  to  successfully  integrate  employees  transitioning  to  us  from  acquisitions.  (cid:28)ompetition  for  highly 
s(cid:60)illed management, sales and technical personnel is intense, particularly in certain geographic areas (cid:72)here 
(cid:72)e operate. (cid:29)emographic trends are reducing the number of individuals entering the trades, ma(cid:60)ing access to 
s(cid:60)illed  individuals  more  difficult.  The  (cid:28)ompany  has  several  remote  locations,  (cid:72)hich  ma(cid:60)e  attracting  and 
retaining s(cid:60)illed individuals more difficult. To help mitigate this ris(cid:60), (cid:72)e have implemented a number of human 
resources  initiatives,  including  training  and  career  development  programs,  succession  plans,  employee 
experience surveys, performance management systems, compensation programs and recruiting strategies.

Although (cid:72)e actively manage our human resources ris(cid:60)s, there can be no assurance (cid:72)e (cid:72)ill be successful in 
our efforts. The loss of certain (cid:60)ey employees, or failure to attract, retain and engage talent as needed, may 
have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and future prospects.

(cid:28)ertain  of  our  employees  are  represented  by  unions  and  (cid:72)e  are  party  to  a  number  of  collective  bargaining 
agreements,  covering  approximately  1,100  employees.  Of  the  21  agreements  in  place,  9  are  scheduled  for 
negotiation during 2024.  

(cid:48)hile (cid:72)e are committed to the collective bargaining process and to concluding a fair contract for us and for our 
employees, the renegotiation process could result in future (cid:72)or(cid:60) stoppages or higher (cid:72)ages and benefits paid 
to  union  members.  (cid:32)enerally,  Toromont  believes  its  labour  relations  are  satisfactory  and  does  not  anticipate 
any difficulties in respect of upcoming negotiations. The failure to rene(cid:72) collective agreements (cid:72)ith satisfactory 
terms  and  in  a  timely  manner  could  have  an  adverse  impact  on  our  business,  results  of  operations,  and 
financial condition.

(cid:26)redit Ris(cid:58)

(cid:28)redit ris(cid:60) is the ris(cid:60) of financial loss to us if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet 
its contractual obligations and  arise principally in respect  of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable 
and derivative financial instruments. The carrying amounts on the statement of financial position represent the 
maximum expected credit exposure.

(cid:48)hen the (cid:28)ompany has cash on hand it may be invested in short(cid:11)term instruments, such as money-mar(cid:60)et
deposits.  The  (cid:28)ompany  has  deposited  cash  (cid:72)ith  reputable  financial  institutions,  from  (cid:72)hich  management 
believes the ris(cid:60) of loss to be remote.

The (cid:28)ompany has accounts receivable from a large diversified customer base, and is not dependent on any 
single  customer  or  industry.  The  (cid:28)ompany's  customers  are  engaged  in  various  industries  including 
construction,  mining,  food  and  beverage,  and  governmental  agencies,  predominately  based  in  (cid:28)anada. 
Toromont  also  maintains  policies  to  manage  credit  ris(cid:60),  including  establishing  and  revie(cid:72)ing  credit  limits  for 
customers  ta(cid:60)ing  into  account  factors  such  as  projected  purchase  values,  credit  (cid:72)orthiness  of  the  customer, 
and payment performance.

The credit ris(cid:60) associated (cid:72)ith derivative financial instruments arises from the possibility that the counterparties 
may default on their obligations. In order to minimi(cid:75)e this ris(cid:60), the (cid:28)ompany enters into derivative transactions 
only (cid:72)ith highly rated financial institutions.

(cid:26)ontract E(cid:71)ecution, Including (cid:39)roduct (cid:46)arranty 

(cid:48)e  enter  into  thermal  heating  and  cooling  and  po(cid:72)er  systems  contracts,  (cid:72)hich  are  engineered  solutions 
involving the design, assembly and installation of large, complex systems. The length of these contracts varies 
but typically construction is completed in under t(cid:72)o years. The contracts are generally at a fixed price over the 
term and provide for penalties payable by us if contractual milestones are not met. 

(cid:48)e have developed processes and have controls in place to ensure contracts are bid appropriately, but due to 
the nature and complexity of these contracts, there is a ris(cid:60) that significant cost overruns may be incurred. If 
(cid:72)e miscalculate the extent of (cid:72)or(cid:60) required, or if costs increase beyond those anticipated, contract profitability 
may  be  adversely  affected.  (cid:48)e  closely  monitor  these  contracts  for  early  (cid:72)arning  signs  of  cost  overruns, 
ho(cid:72)ever, there can be no assurance that cost overruns (cid:72)ill be avoided.

The (cid:28)ompany also enters into long(cid:11)term maintenance and repair contracts, (cid:72)hereby it is obligated to maintain 
equipment  for  its  customers.  The  length  of  these  contracts  varies  generally  from  t(cid:72)o  to  five  years.  The 
contracts  are  typically  fixed  price  on  machine  hours,  (cid:72)ith  provisions  for  inflationary  and  foreign  exchange 
adjustments. (cid:29)ue to the long(cid:11)term nature of these contracts, there is a ris(cid:60) that maintenance costs may exceed 
the estimate, thereby resulting in a loss on the contract. (cid:41)reventative measures such as condition monitoring 
and scheduled fluid sampling help identify problems in equipment early on and help reduce the ris(cid:60) of costly 
repair  (cid:72)or(cid:60).  These  contracts  are  closely  monitored  for  early  (cid:72)arning  signs  of  cost  overruns.  In  addition,  the 
manufacturer  may,  in  certain  circumstances,  share  in  the  cost  overruns  if  profitability  falls  belo(cid:72)  a  certain 
threshold. There is no assurance that such measures (cid:72)ill al(cid:72)ays address such ris(cid:60)s. Our failure to effectively 
price and manage these contracts could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations 
and financial position.

(cid:44)tandard  and  extended  (cid:72)arranties  are  provided  for  most  of  the  equipment,  parts  and  services  sold.  The 
(cid:72)arranty claim ris(cid:60) is generally shared jointly (cid:72)ith the equipment manufacturer. Accordingly, liability is generally 
limited to the service component of the (cid:72)arranty claim, (cid:72)hile the manufacturer is responsible for providing the 
required parts. There is a ris(cid:60) that product quality erosion or lac(cid:60) of s(cid:60)illed labor could increase (cid:72)arranty claims 
in the future, or that future (cid:72)arranty claims may be greater than (cid:72)e anticipate. If our liability in respect of such 
claims is greater than anticipated, it may have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations

(cid:29)oreign E(cid:71)c(cid:56)ange

Toromont's  operating  results  are  reported  in  (cid:28)anadian  dollars.  (cid:48)hile  the  majority  of  Toromont's  sales  are 
transacted in (cid:28)anadian dollars, significant portions of its purchases are made in (cid:46).(cid:44). dollars. (cid:28)hanges in the 
(cid:46).(cid:44).  dollar  exchange  rate  can  have  a  negative  or  positive  impact  on  revenue,  margins  and  (cid:72)or(cid:60)ing  capital 
balances.

(cid:31)oreign  exchange  contracts  reduce  volatility  by  fixing  landed  costs  related  to  specific  customer  orders  and 
establishing a level of price stability for high-volume goods such as spare parts. The (cid:28)ompany does not enter
into  foreign  exchange  for(cid:72)ard  contracts  for  speculative  purposes.  The  gains  and  losses  on  the  foreign 
exchange for(cid:72)ard contracts designated as cash flo(cid:72) hedges are intended to offset the translation losses and 
gains on the hedged foreign currency transactions (cid:72)hen they occur. As a result, the foreign exchange impact 
on earnings (cid:72)ith respect to transactional activity is not significant.

The  rate  of  exchange  bet(cid:72)een  the  (cid:28)anadian  and  (cid:46)(cid:44)  dollar  can  have  an  impact  on  revenue  trends. 
(cid:44)ubstantially  all  of  the  equipment  and  parts  sold  in  the  Equipment  (cid:32)roup  are  sourced  in  (cid:46)(cid:44)  dollars,  and 
(cid:28)anadian  dollar.  (cid:44)ales  prices  generally  reflect  changes  in  the  rate  of  exchange.  As  a  result,  a  stronger 
(cid:28)anadian dollar can adversely affect revenue, (cid:72)hile a (cid:72)ea(cid:60)er (cid:28)anadian dollar can increase reported revenue. 
The impact is not readily estimable as it is largely dependent on (cid:72)hen customers order the equipment versus 
(cid:72)hen it (cid:72)as sold. (cid:27)oo(cid:60)ings in a given period (cid:72)ould more closely follo(cid:72) period-over-period changes in
exchange  rates.  (cid:44)ales  of  parts  come  from  inventories  maintained  to  service  customer  requirements.  As  a 
result,  constant  parts  replenishment  means  that  there  is  a  lagging  impact  of  changes  in  exchange  rates.  In 
(cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O,  sales  are  largely  affected  by  the  same  factors.  In  addition,  revenue  from  (cid:28)I(cid:38)(cid:28)O's  (cid:46)(cid:44)  subsidiary 
reflect changes in exchange rates on the translation of results, although this is not significant. The (cid:28)anadian 
dollar averaged (cid:46)(cid:44)$0.74 in 2023 and (cid:46)(cid:44)$0.77 in 2022.

As (cid:72)ell, many of Toromont's customers export products to the (cid:46).(cid:44)., or sell products based on the (cid:46)(cid:44) dollar.  A 
strengthening  (cid:28)anadian  dollar  can  negatively  impact  their  overall  competitiveness  and  demand  for  their 
products, (cid:72)hich in turn may reduce product purchases from Toromont.

Interest Rate

(cid:28)hanges  in  mar(cid:60)et  interest  rates  can  cause  fluctuations  in  the  fair  value  or  future  cash  flo(cid:72)s  of  financial 
instruments. 

The (cid:28)ompany has exposure to changes in interest rates on interest(cid:11)bearing financial liabilities, primarily from 
long-term debt. The (cid:28)ompany has fixed(cid:11)rate debt obligations outstanding (cid:72)ith maturities in 2025 and 2027.
(cid:31)ixed-rate debt exposes the (cid:28)ompany to future interest rate movements upon refinancing the debt at maturity.
The fair value of fixed(cid:11)rate debt obligations fluctuates (cid:72)ith changes in interest rates, exposing the (cid:28)ompany to 
potential losses on early settlements or refinancing. The (cid:28)ompany does not intend to settle or refinance any 
existing fixed-rate debt before maturity.

The (cid:28)ompany is exposed to changes in interest rates on interest bearing financial assets, primarily cash and 
cash equivalents. (cid:29)ue to the short(cid:11)term nature of cash and cash equivalents, the impact of fluctuations in fair 
value is limited but interest income earned can be impacted.

Liquidity  ris(cid:60)  is  the  ris(cid:60)  that  (cid:72)e  (cid:72)ill  not  be  able  to  meet  our  financial  obligations  as  they  become  due.  The 
(cid:28)ompany follo(cid:72)s an active cash management program including continuous monitoring of actual and forecast 
cash flo(cid:72)s. The (cid:28)ompany also maintains syndicated credit facilities, and holds cash balances to provide added 
liquidity. (cid:27)ased on cash balances on hand, the availability of credit facilities, expected cash flo(cid:72) generation of 
operations, and the discretionary nature of some cash outflo(cid:72)s, such as rental and capital expenditures, the 
(cid:28)ompany expects to continue to have sufficient liquidity to meet operational needs.

Toromont  is  committed  to  monitoring,  reporting  and  reducing  greenhouse  gas  ((cid:2)(cid:32)(cid:33)(cid:32)(cid:2))  emissions  of  our 
operations. (cid:31)urther, (cid:72)e see ourselves as valuable partners to our customers to help them reduce their carbon 
emissions and build resilience into their o(cid:72)n operations. 

Our service facilities and fleets of vehicles, generate direct (cid:32)(cid:33)(cid:32) emissions ((cid:44)cope 1) from fuel combustion in

and  other  third  parties  to  file  claims  for  personal  injury,  property  damage  and  recovery  of  response  costs. 
Toromont  maintains  an  environmental  management  program  that  includes  robust  policies  and  procedures,

In(cid:54)ormation Tec(cid:56)nology 

The (cid:28)ompany depends on information technology infrastructure and systems, hosted internally or outsourced, 
to  conduct  day(cid:11)to(cid:11)day  operations  and  for  the  effective  operation  of  our  business.  Our  business  also  requires 
the appropriate and secure utili(cid:75)ation of sensitive and confidential information belonging to third parties such as 
our  customers  and  suppliers.  (cid:48)hile  (cid:72)e  strive  to  leverage  technology  to  meet  the  gro(cid:72)ing  needs  of  our 
customers and enhance the efficiency of our operations, it nevertheless comes (cid:72)ith information ris(cid:60)s.

The integrity, reliability and availability of technology and the data processed by that technology is an integral 
part of our business processes, including mar(cid:60)eting of equipment and support services, inventory and logistics 
optimi(cid:75)ation, business intelligence and finance. (cid:44)ome of these systems are integrated (cid:72)ith our suppliers and 
other partners(cid:80) core processes and systems. 

Toromont  continues  to  invest  in  information  systems  to  improve  business  performance  through  our  internal 
transactional  systems  and  install  or  upgrade  various  business  process  enablement  and  decision  support 
systems  as  appropriate  on  a  continuous  basis.  These  system  implementations  often  drive  business  process 
changes as (cid:72)ell as technology changes.

Information  systems,  technology  and  business  process  changes,  and  related  organi(cid:75)ational  change,  often 
carry a ris(cid:60) of business disruption, failure to achieve expected business benefits, cost overruns and ineffective 
design  and  operation  of  systems  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  and  disclosure  controls  and 
procedures.  (cid:27)enefits  assessment,  change  management,  ris(cid:60)  and  impact  assessments,  solution  validation, 
strong project governance, communication and training have been identified as critical success factors in the 
successful implementation of ne(cid:72) systems. Any disruptions to these systems or the failure of these systems to

operate  as  expected,  or  any  failure  to  appropriately  adapt  to  business  process  changes,  could  adversely 
impact our operating results by limiting our ability to effectively monitor and control our operations. 

In  addition,  ne(cid:72)  digital  and  other  technologies  and  advancements  to  equipment  in  the  mar(cid:60)et,  such  as 
equipment electrification, can become disruptive to our operations, mar(cid:60)et share and business model. (cid:48)e scan 
continuously  for  emerging  digital  and  other  technologies  and  equipment  advancements  and  their  potential 
impacts.  In  order  to  face  this  disruption  ris(cid:60),  our  digital  and  technology  solutions  initiatives  are  focused  on 
investigating emerging digital technologies to determine ho(cid:72) they can impact customers and our core business 
opportunities, improving the customer experience, and identifying and pursuing ne(cid:72) opportunities for revenue 
generation in the digitally enabled value(cid:11)added services area. (cid:48)hile execution performance to date has been 
strong, our failure to meet these objectives could have an adverse impact on our business. 

A rigorous management process is follo(cid:72)ed to manage these ris(cid:60)s and a great deal of the business processes 
and  systems  transformation  program  focus  is  on  developing  capabilities  to  reduce  and  mitigate  these  ris(cid:60)s, 
ho(cid:72)ever, there is no certainty that these ris(cid:60)s can be sufficiently reduced or mitigated.

(cid:26)y(cid:50)ersecurity

(cid:28)ybersecurity  incidents  related  to  our  information  technology  systems  are  a  threat  to  the  integrity,  reliability, 
and  availability  of  technology  and  data.  (cid:28)ybersecurity  incidents  may  ta(cid:60)e  the  form  of  mal(cid:72)are,  computer 
viruses, cyber threats, cyber extortion, employee error, malfeasance, system errors and other types of security

or support a variety of critical business processes and activities.

The (cid:28)ompany continues to monitor and enhance its defenses and procedures to prevent, detect, respond to 
and  manage  these  threats,  (cid:72)hich  are  constantly  evolving,  ho(cid:72)ever  there  can  be  no  assurance  these  efforts 
and measures (cid:72)ill be able to prevent all cybersecurity incidents. (cid:29)isruption to information systems or breaches 
of  security  could  result  in  a  negative  impact  on  the  (cid:28)ompany's  financial  results  or  result  in  reputational 
damage, including the follo(cid:72)ing(cid:24) disruption of our business operations and lost revenue(cid:25) unauthori(cid:75)ed access

To  mitigate  information  security  ris(cid:60)s,  the  (cid:28)ompany,  through  a  dedicated,  full(cid:11)time  team  of  cybersecurity 
professionals, underta(cid:60)es preventative measures, including controlling access to its net(cid:72)or(cid:60) and applications 
using secure fire(cid:72)alls and limiting access to an (cid:2)as-needed(cid:2) basis. To identify information security ris(cid:60)s, the
company uses various detection methods, including monitoring event logs for fire(cid:72)alls, server, mail systems, 
and applications. Third(cid:11)party experts are utili(cid:75)ed to perform testing and assessments. The (cid:28)ompany provides 
regular and mandatory information security training to employees as applicable and appropriate. The (cid:28)ompany

The  preparation  of  the  (cid:28)ompany's  consolidated  financial  statements  in  conformity  (cid:72)ith  I(cid:31)R(cid:44)  requires 
management  to  ma(cid:60)e  judgments,  estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of  revenue, 
expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. 
(cid:33)o(cid:72)ever, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material 
adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in future periods. 

In ma(cid:60)ing judgments, estimates and assumptions, management relies on external information and observable 
conditions (cid:72)here possible, supplemented by internal analysis as required. (cid:38)anagement revie(cid:72)s its estimates 
and judgments on an ongoing basis. The (cid:28)ompany has discussed the development, selection, and application 
of  its  (cid:60)ey  accounting  policies,  and  the  critical  accounting  estimates  and  assumptions  they  involve,  (cid:72)ith  the 
Audit (cid:28)ommittee.

Toromont's material accounting policies and significant accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments are 
described in the consolidated financial statements. Refer to notes 2 and 3 of the audited consolidated financial 
statements.

the IA(cid:44)(cid:27) issued narro(cid:72)(cid:11)scope amendments to IA(cid:44) 1 in (cid:31)ebruary 2021, the amendments require the disclosure 
of material accounting policy information rather than significant accounting policies. The (cid:28)ompany has adopted 
these amendments in its consolidated financial statements for the period ended on (cid:29)ecember 31, 2023.

IA(cid:44)  8,  (cid:9)(cid:23)(cid:23)ount(cid:29)n(cid:27)  (cid:17)ol(cid:29)(cid:23)(cid:29)es(cid:6)  (cid:10)han(cid:27)es  (cid:29)n  (cid:9)(cid:23)(cid:23)ount(cid:29)n(cid:27)  (cid:12)st(cid:29)(cid:33)ates  and  (cid:12)(cid:37)(cid:37)o(cid:37)s  (cid:78)  these  amendments  introduce  a 
definition  of  (cid:2)accounting  estimates(cid:2)  and  clarify  the  difference  bet(cid:72)een  changes  in  accounting  policies  and 
changes in accounting estimates.

IA(cid:44) 12, (cid:14)n(cid:23)o(cid:33)e (cid:20)a(cid:41)es (cid:78) these amendments clarify ho(cid:72) companies should account for deferred taxes related to 
assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction, such as leases and decommissioning obligations. The 
amendments narro(cid:72)ed the scope of the initial recognition exemption so that it does not apply to transactions 
that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences. As a result, recognition of a deferred tax asset and 
a deferred tax liability for temporary differences arising on initial recognition of the related asset and liability is 
required. 

The  implementation  of  these  standard  amendments  did  not  have  a  significant  impact  on  the  (cid:28)ompany's 
consolidated  financial  statements.  The  (cid:28)ompany  has  not  early(cid:11)adopted  any  standard,  interpretation  or 
amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

amendments  to  determine  the  impact  on  the  consolidated  financial  statements.  (cid:27)ased  upon  the  (cid:28)ompany's

classified  as  non(cid:11)current  even  if  management  intends  or  expects  to  settle  the  liability  (cid:72)ithin  t(cid:72)elve

caused it to be designed under their supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of 
financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance (cid:72)ith I(cid:31)R(cid:44). 

The (cid:28)EO and the (cid:28)(cid:31)O, together (cid:72)ith other members of management, have evaluated the effectiveness of the 
(cid:28)ompany's  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  at  (cid:29)ecember  31,  2023,  using  the  criteria  set  forth  in 
Internal (cid:28)ontrol (cid:78) Integrated (cid:31)rame(cid:72)or(cid:60) (2013 edition) issued by the (cid:28)ommittee of (cid:44)ponsoring Organi(cid:75)ations 
of  the  Tread(cid:72)ay  (cid:28)ommission.  (cid:27)ased  on  that  evaluation,  the  (cid:28)EO  and  (cid:28)(cid:31)O  concluded  that  the  (cid:28)ompany's 
internal control over financial reporting (cid:72)as effective as at (cid:29)ecember 31, 2023.

There  have  been  no  changes  in  the  design  of  the  (cid:28)ompany's  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  during 
2023  that  (cid:72)ould  materially  affect,  or  are  reasonably  li(cid:60)ely  to  materially  affect,  the  (cid:28)ompany's  internal  control 
over financial reporting. 

(cid:29)ue to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements 
on  a  timely  basis.  Also,  a  projection  of  the  evaluation  of  the  effectiveness  of  internal  control  over  financial 
reporting to future periods is subject to the ris(cid:60) that the controls may become inadequate because of changes 
in conditions, or that the degree of compliance (cid:72)ith the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Therefore, even 
those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance (cid:72)ith respect to the financial 
statement preparation and presentation. Internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent all errors and 
fraud. A control system, no matter ho(cid:72) (cid:72)ell conceived or operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute, 
assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. 

ADDITIONAL (cid:30)AA(cid:39) MEASURES

I(cid:31)R(cid:44) mandates certain minimum line items for financial statements and also requires presentation of additional 
line items, headings and subtotals (cid:72)hen such presentation is relevant to an understanding of the (cid:28)ompany's 
financial  position  or  performance.  I(cid:31)R(cid:44)  also  requires  the  notes  to  the  financial  statements  to  provide 
information that is not presented else(cid:72)here in the financial statements, but is relevant to understanding them. 
(cid:44)uch measures outside of the minimum mandated line items are considered additional (cid:32)AA(cid:41) measures. The 
(cid:28)ompany's  consolidated  financial  statements  and  notes  thereto  include  certain  additional  (cid:32)AA(cid:41)  measures 
(cid:72)here management considers such information to be useful to the understanding of the (cid:28)ompany's results.

Operating Income

Operating  income  is  defined  as  net  income  from  continuing  operations  before  interest  expense,  interest  and 
investment  income  and  income  taxes  and  is  used  by  management  to  assess  and  evaluate  the  financial 
performance of its operating segments. (cid:31)inancing and related interest charges cannot be attributed to business 
segments on a meaningful basis that is comparable to other companies. (cid:27)usiness segments do not correspond 
to  income  tax  jurisdictions  and  it  is  believed  that  the  allocation  of  income  taxes  distorts  the  historical 
comparability of the performance of the business segments.

This measure is defined as operating income (defined above) divided by total revenue.

Order (cid:25)oo(cid:58)ings and (cid:25)ac(cid:58)log

Order boo(cid:60)ings represent the retail value of firm equipment or project orders received during a period. (cid:27)ac(cid:60)log 
is defined as the retail value of equipment units ordered by customers (cid:72)ith future delivery, and the remaining 
retail  value  of  pac(cid:60)age(cid:13)project  orders  remaining  to  be  recogni(cid:75)ed  in  revenue  under  the  percentage  of 
completion method. (cid:38)anagement uses order bac(cid:60)log as a measure of projecting future equipment and project 
deliveries. There are no directly comparable I(cid:31)R(cid:44) measures for order boo(cid:60)ings or bac(cid:60)log.

Return on (cid:26)apital Employed ("RO(cid:26)E")

RO(cid:28)E  is  utili(cid:75)ed  to  assess  both  current  operating  performance  and  prospective  investments.  The  adjusted 
earnings numerator used for the calculation is income from continuing operations before income taxes, interest 
expense and interest income (excluding interest on rental conversions). The denominator in the calculation is 
the monthly average capital employed, (cid:72)hich is defined as net debt plus shareholders' equity, also referred to 
as total capitali(cid:75)ation, adjusted for discontinued operations.

The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  and  (cid:37)anagement(cid:6)s  Discussion  and (cid:25)nalysis  ((cid:2)(cid:37)D(cid:5)(cid:25)(cid:2)) 
are  the  responsibility  of  the  management  of  Toromont  Industries  Ltd.  (the  (cid:2)Company(cid:2)).  The  consolidated 
financial  statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  International  (cid:30)inancial  (cid:42)eporting  (cid:43)tandards  as 
issued by the International (cid:25)ccounting (cid:43)tandards (cid:26)oard. The financial information presented in the Company(cid:6)s 
(cid:37)D(cid:5)(cid:25) is consistent, where applicable, with that contained in the consolidated financial statements.

The consolidated financial statements reflect certain amounts which are, necessarily, based on estimates and 
judgments. (cid:37)anagement has determined such amounts on a reasonable basis in order to provide reasonable 
assurance that the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly in all material respects. 

(cid:37)anagement is also responsible for establishing and maintaining appropriate systems of internal control and 
procedures  over  the  financial  reporting  process.  (cid:40)olicies  and  procedures  are  designed  to  give  reasonable 
assurance  that  transactions  are  appropriately  authori(cid:75)ed,  assets  are  safeguarded  from  loss  or  unauthori(cid:75)ed 
use  and  financial  records  are  properly  maintained  to  provide  reliable  information  for  preparation  of  the 
consolidated financial statements.

Ernst  (cid:5)  (cid:49)oung  LL(cid:40),  an  independent  firm  of  chartered  professional  accountants,  were  appointed  by  the 
shareholders as external auditor to examine the consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally 
accepted  auditing  standards  in  Canada  and  provide  an  independent  professional  opinion.  Their  report  is 
presented with the consolidated financial statements.

The (cid:26)oard of Directors (the (cid:2)(cid:26)oard(cid:2)) is responsible for ensuring that management fulfills its responsibilities for 
financial  reporting  and  internal  controls. The  (cid:26)oard  carries  out  its  responsibilities  principally  through  its (cid:25)udit 
Committee,  which  is  composed  solely  of  independent  directors.  The  (cid:25)udit  Committee  recommends  the 
independent auditor for appointment by the shareholders. It meets regularly with management and the internal 
and external auditors to review internal accounting controls, internal and external audit matters and accounting 
principles  and  practices.  Internal  and  external  auditors  have  full  and  unrestricted  access  to  the  (cid:25)udit 
Committee. The consolidated financial statements and (cid:37)D(cid:5)(cid:25) have been approved by the (cid:26)oard of Directors, 
based on the review and recommendation of the (cid:25)udit Committee.

INDEPENDENT A(cid:43)DITOR(cid:6)S REPORT

To the (cid:43)hareholders of Toromont Industries Ltd.,

O(cid:63)(cid:56)n(cid:56)on

(cid:47)e  have  audited  the  consolidated  financial  statements  of  Toromont  Industries  Ltd.  and  its  subsidiaries  (the 
Group), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3 and (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15), 
and the consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated 
statements  of  changes  in  shareholders’  equity  and  consolidated  statements  of  cash  flows  for  the  years  then 
ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the 
consolidated financial position of the Group as at December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3 and (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15), and its consolidated financial 
performance  and  its  consolidated  cash  flows  for  the  years  then  ended  in  accordance  with  International 
(cid:30)inancial (cid:42)eporting (cid:43)tandards (I(cid:30)(cid:42)(cid:43)).

the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in Canada, and 
we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. (cid:47)e believe that the 
audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.  

(cid:33)ey A(cid:68)d(cid:56)t Matter 

(cid:35)ey audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in the audit of 
the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of the 
audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming the auditor’s opinion thereon, and we 
do  not  provide  a  separate  opinion  on  these  matters.  (cid:30)or  the  matter  below,  our  description  of  how  our  audit 
addressed the matter is provided in that context.

(cid:47)e have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the (cid:11)(cid:50)(cid:33)it(cid:44)r(cid:56)s (cid:23)esp(cid:44)nsi(cid:31)i(cid:41)ities (cid:35)(cid:44)r t(cid:37)e (cid:11)(cid:50)(cid:33)it (cid:44)(cid:35) t(cid:37)e (cid:12)(cid:44)ns(cid:44)(cid:41)i(cid:33)ate(cid:33)

the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the ris(cid:60)s of material misstatement of 
the consolidated financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed 
to address the matter below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying consolidated financial 
statements.

percentage(cid:10)of(cid:10)completion  method.  This  method  is 
measured by reference to costs incurred to date as a 
percentage  of  the  total  estimated  costs.  The  Group’s 
policy for revenue recognition together with the related 
significant  accounting  estimates  and  assumptions  is 
described  in  notes  (cid:15)  and  3  of  the  consolidated 
financial statements.

the  year  ended  December  31,  (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3  related  to  these 
contracts. The determination of the estimated costs to 
complete  projects  that  are  open  at  period  end  is  a 
significant judgement that can have a material impact 
on the amount of revenue and profit recogni(cid:75)ed in the 
period.  These  significant  judgements  include  those 
related  to  estimated  future  labour,  materials  and 
overhead  costs  for  contracts.  Given  the  variation  in 
the  types  of  refrigeration  projects,  these  judgements 
related to the estimation of future costs are subjective 
in nature and dependent on the complexity and status 
of the related contract as of the period end date.

preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud 
or error.

In  preparing  the  consolidated  financial  statements,  management  is  responsible  for  assessing  the  Group’s 
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the 
going  concern  basis  of  accounting  unless  management  either  intends  to  liquidate  the  Group  or  to  cease 
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that

1.  DESCRIPTION OF (cid:24)(cid:43)SINESS

Cor(cid:63)orate Informat(cid:56)on

Toromont  Industries  Ltd.  (the  (cid:2)Company(cid:2)  or  (cid:2)Toromont(cid:2))  is  a  limited  company  incorporated  and  domiciled  in 
Canada whose shares are publicly traded on the Toronto (cid:43)toc(cid:60) Exchange ((cid:2)T(cid:43)(cid:48)(cid:2)) under the symbol TI(cid:32). The 
registered office is located at 3131 (cid:32)ighway (cid:20) (cid:47)est, Concord, (cid:39)ntario, Canada.

The  Company  operates  through  two  business  segments(cid:23)  the  Equipment  Group  and  CI(cid:37)C(cid:39). The  Equipment 
Group  includes  one  of  the  larger  Caterpillar  dealerships  by  revenue  and  geographic  territory,  spanning  the 
Canadian  provinces  of  (cid:38)ewfoundland  and  Labrador,  (cid:38)ova  (cid:43)cotia,  (cid:38)ew  (cid:26)runswic(cid:60),  (cid:40)rince  Edward  Island, 
(cid:41)u(cid:76)bec, (cid:39)ntario and (cid:37)anitoba, in addition to most of the territory of (cid:38)unavut. The Equipment Group includes 
industry(cid:10)leading rental operations and a complementary material handling business. CI(cid:37)C(cid:39) is a mar(cid:60)et leader 
in the design, engineering, fabrication and installation of industrial and recreational refrigeration systems. (cid:26)oth 
segments offer comprehensive product support capabilities. Toromont employs over (cid:20),(cid:13)(cid:13)(cid:13) people in more than 
1(cid:19)(cid:13) locations. 

2.  MATERIAL ACCO(cid:43)NTIN(cid:29) POLICIES

These  consolidated  financial  statements  are  prepared  in  accordance  with  International  (cid:30)inancial  (cid:42)eporting 
(cid:43)tandards ((cid:2)I(cid:30)(cid:42)(cid:43)(cid:2)), as issued by the International (cid:25)ccounting (cid:43)tandards (cid:26)oard ((cid:2)I(cid:25)(cid:43)(cid:26)(cid:2)). 

These consolidated financial statements were authori(cid:75)ed for issue by the (cid:26)oard of Directors on (cid:30)ebruary 13, 
(cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:17) on the recommendation of the (cid:25)udit Committee.

(cid:24)as(cid:56)s of Meas(cid:68)rement

These  consolidated  financial  statements  were  prepared  on  a  historical  cost  basis,  except  for  certain  items 
recorded at fair value as detailed in the accounting policies disclosed below. 

Presentat(cid:56)on and F(cid:68)nct(cid:56)ona(cid:59) C(cid:68)rrency

The  consolidated  financial  statements  are  presented  in  Canadian  dollars,  which  is  Toromont(cid:6)s  functional 
currency. (cid:25)ll values are rounded to the nearest thousand, except where otherwise indicated. 

(cid:24)as(cid:56)s of Conso(cid:59)(cid:56)dat(cid:56)on

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. 

(cid:43)ubsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Company obtains 
control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. The financial statements of the 
subsidiaries  are  prepared  for  the  same  reporting  period  as  the  parent  company,  using  consistent  accounting 
policies. (cid:25)ll
intra-group balances, income and expenses and unreali(cid:75)ed gains and losses resulting from
intra-group transactions are eliminated in full upon consolidation.

(cid:47)hen  determining  the  nature  of  an  acquisition,  as  either  a  business  combination  or  an  asset  acquisition, 
management  defines  a  business  as  (cid:2)an  integrated  set  of  activities  and  assets  that  is  capable  of  being

conducted  and  managed  for  the  purpose  of  providing  a  return  in  the  form  of  dividends,  lower  costs  or  other 
economic benefits directly to investors or other owners, members or participants.(cid:2) (cid:25)n integrated set of activities 
and assets requires inputs and processes applied to those inputs, which together are or will be used to create 
outputs. (cid:32)owever, a business need not include all of the inputs or processes that the seller used in operating 
that  business  if  the  Company  is  capable  of  acquiring  the  business  and  continuing  to  produce  outputs,  for 
example, by integrating the business with their own inputs and processes. If the transaction does not meet the 
criteria of a business, it is accounted for as an asset acquisition.

(cid:26)usiness combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured 
as the aggregate of consideration transferred, measured at the acquisition date fair value. (cid:25)cquisition costs are 
expensed as incurred.

Goodwill  is  initially  measured  at  cost,  being  the  excess  of  the  cost  of  the  business  combination  over  the 
Company(cid:6)s share in the net fair value of the acquiree(cid:6)s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. If 
the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is 
recogni(cid:75)ed directly in the consolidated statements of income.

(cid:25)fter initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. (cid:30)or the purpose 
of  impairment  testing,  goodwill  acquired  in  a  business  combination  is,  from  the  acquisition  date,  allocated  to 
each of the Company(cid:6)s cash(cid:10)generating units ((cid:2)CG(cid:45)s(cid:2)) that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the 
combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.

(cid:47)here  goodwill  forms  part  of  a  CG(cid:45)  and  part  of  the  operation  within  that  unit  is  disposed  of,  the  goodwill 
associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining 
the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured based on 
the relative fair values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the CG(cid:45) retained. 

D(cid:56)scont(cid:56)n(cid:68)ed O(cid:63)erat(cid:56)ons

The  Company  reports  financial  results  for  discontinued  operations  separately  from  continuing  operations  to 
distinguish  the  financial  impact  of  disposal  transactions  from  ongoing  operations.  Discontinued  operations 
reporting occurs when the disposal of a component or a group of components of the Company represents a 
strategic  shift  that  will  have  an  impact  on  the  Company(cid:6)s  operations  and  financial  results,  and  where  the 
operations and cash flows can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from 
the rest of the Company.

The  results  of  discontinued  operations  are  excluded  from  both  continuing  operations  and  business  segment 
information  in  the  consolidated  financial  statements  and  the  notes  to  the  consolidated  financial  statements, 
unless otherwise noted, and are presented net of tax in the consolidated statements of income for the current 
and comparative year. (cid:42)efer to note (cid:17), (cid:2)Discontinued (cid:39)perations(cid:2) for further information.

Cash and Cash E(cid:64)(cid:68)(cid:56)(cid:69)a(cid:59)ents

Cash  and  cash  equivalents  include  cash  on  hand,  cash  in  ban(cid:60),  and  short(cid:10)term  deposits  with  an  original 
maturity  of  three  months  or  less,  readily  convertible  to  (cid:60)nown  amounts  of  cash,  and  which  are  subject  to  an 
insignificant ris(cid:60) of changes in value.

Acco(cid:68)nts Rece(cid:56)(cid:69)ab(cid:59)e

Trade  accounts  receivable  are  amounts  due  from  customers  for  products  sold  or  services  performed  in  the 
ordinary course of business. If collection is expected in one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the 
business, if longer), they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets.
Trade  accounts  receivable  are  recogni(cid:75)ed  initially  at  amounts  due,  net  of  impairment  for  estimated  expected 
credit  loss  (allowance  for  doubtful  accounts). The  expense  relating  to  expected  credit  loss  is  included  within 
selling and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income.

(cid:45)nbilled  receivables  represent  contract  assets  related  to  the  Company(cid:6)s  rights  to  consideration  for  wor(cid:60) 
completed  but  not  billed  as  at  the  reporting  date  on  the  sale  of  power  and  energy  systems  and  refrigeration 
pac(cid:60)ages.  These  are  transferred  to  accounts  receivable  when  the  entitlement  to  payment  becomes 
unconditional. 

In(cid:69)entor(cid:56)es

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net reali(cid:75)able value. 

Cost of equipment, repair and distribution parts and direct materials include purchase cost and costs incurred 
in  bringing  each  product  to  its  present  location  and  condition.  (cid:43)eriali(cid:75)ed  inventory  is  determined  on  a 
specific-item basis. (cid:38)on(cid:10)seriali(cid:75)ed inventory is determined based on a weighted average actual cost.

Cost  of  wor(cid:60)(cid:10)in(cid:10)process  includes  cost  of  direct  materials,  direct  labour  and  an  allocation  of  overhead  costs, 
based on normal operating capacity. 

Cost  of  wor(cid:60)(cid:10)in(cid:10)process  (contracts)  are  costs  specifically  chargeable  to  customers  that  are  deferred  in 
inventories and are probable of recovery.

Cost  of  inventories  includes  the  transfer  of  gains  and  losses  on  qualifying  cash  flow  hedges,  recogni(cid:75)ed  in 
other comprehensive (loss) income ((cid:2)(cid:39)CI(cid:2)), in respect of the purchase of inventory.

(cid:38)et reali(cid:75)able value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of 
completion and the estimated costs necessary to ma(cid:60)e the sale.

Pro(cid:63)erty, P(cid:59)ant and E(cid:64)(cid:68)(cid:56)(cid:63)ment

(cid:40)roperty,  plant  and  equipment  are  recorded  at  cost,  net  of  accumulated  depreciation  and  accumulated 
impairment losses, if any. 

Depreciation  is  recogni(cid:75)ed  principally  on  a  straight(cid:10)line  basis  over  the  estimated  useful  lives  of  the  assets. 
Estimated useful lives range from (cid:15)(cid:13) to 3(cid:13) years for buildings, 3 to 1(cid:13) years for equipment and (cid:15)(cid:13) years for 
power generation assets. Leasehold improvements are amorti(cid:75)ed on a straight(cid:10)line basis over the term of the 
lease. Land is not depreciated.

The assets(cid:6) residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at each financial year(cid:10)end 
and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

(cid:42)ental  equipment  is  recorded  at  cost,  net  of  accumulated  depreciation  and  any  impairment  losses.  Cost  is 
determined  on  a  specific(cid:10)item  basis.  (cid:42)ental  equipment  is  depreciated  to  its  estimated  residual  value  over  its 
estimated useful life on a straight(cid:10)line basis, which ranges from 1 to 1(cid:13) years.

The assets(cid:6) residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at each financial year-end
and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

Intan(cid:54)(cid:56)b(cid:59)e Assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Intangible assets acquired as 
part  of  a  business  acquisition  are  initially  recorded  at  the  acquisition  date  fair  value.  (cid:30)ollowing  initial 
recognition,  intangible  assets  are  carried  at  cost  less  any  accumulated  amorti(cid:75)ation  and  accumulated 
impairment losses, as applicable. 

Intangible assets with a finite useful life are amorti(cid:75)ed over their estimated useful lives and are assessed for 
impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible assets may be impaired. The amorti(cid:75)ation period 
and  the  amorti(cid:75)ation  method  for  intangible  assets  with  finite  useful  lives  are  reviewed  at  least  at  the  end  of 
each reporting period. 

(cid:25)morti(cid:75)ation is recorded as follows(cid:23)

(cid:80) Customer relationships (cid:77) (cid:21) years, straight(cid:10)line
(cid:80) E(cid:42)(cid:40) system (cid:77) 5 years, straight(cid:10)line
(cid:80) Customer order bac(cid:60)log (cid:77) specific basis
(cid:80) (cid:40)atents and licenses (cid:77) remaining life, straight(cid:10)line

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amorti(cid:75)ed, but are tested for impairment annually or when 
indicators of impairment are present. Distribution networ(cid:60)s are considered to have an indefinite life based on 
the terms of the distribution rights contracts. The assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine 
whether the indefinite life continues to be supportable. 

(cid:29)o(cid:69)ernment (cid:29)rants

Government grants are recogni(cid:75)ed when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all 
conditions associated with the grant are met. Claims under income(cid:10)related government grants are reported in 
the  consolidated  statements  of  income  as  other  income  included  in  selling  and  administrative  expenses. 
Government grants receivable are recorded in accounts receivable on the consolidated statements of financial 
position.

F(cid:56)nanc(cid:56)a(cid:59) Instr(cid:68)ments

(cid:30)inancial assets and liabilities are recogni(cid:75)ed when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of 
the  instrument.  The  Company  determines  the  classification  of  its  financial  assets  and  liabilities  at  initial 
recognition  or  when  reclassified  on  the  consolidated  statements  of  financial  position.  (cid:30)inancial  assets  and 
liabilities are classified in the following measurement categories(cid:23) (i) amorti(cid:75)ed cost(cid:24) (ii) fair value through (cid:39)CI(cid:24) 
or (iii) fair value through profit or loss ((cid:2)(cid:30)(cid:46)T(cid:40)L(cid:2)). Initially, all financial assets and liabilities are recogni(cid:75)ed at fair 
value, net of transaction costs, except for financial instruments classified as (cid:30)(cid:46)T(cid:40)L, whereby transaction costs

financial assets and liabilities are

(cid:30)inancial (cid:25)ssets

(cid:43)ubsequent  measurement  of  financial  assets  depends  on  the  classification.  The  Company  has  made  the 
following classifications(cid:23)

(cid:80) Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, supplier claims receivable, and 
installment  and  other  notes  receivable  are  classified  as  amorti(cid:75)ed  cost  and  measured  using  the 
effective interest rate method less any impairment losses.

(cid:80) (cid:25)ccounts  receivable  comprise  amounts  due  from  customers  for  goods  or  services  transferred  in  the 
ordinary course of business and non(cid:10)trade accounts. (cid:45)nbilled receivables relate to the Company(cid:6)s right 
to  consideration  for  goods  or  services  transferred  to  a  customer  but  not  yet  billed  as  at  the  reporting 
date.  Installment  notes  receivable  represent  amounts  due  from  customers  relating  to  the  financing  of 
equipment and parts and services sold.

The  Company  assesses,  as  at  each  consolidated  statement  of  financial  position  date,  whether  there  is  any

recognition of the effects of changes in the liability(cid:6)s credit ris(cid:60) in (cid:39)CI would create or enlarge an accounting 
mismatch in the consolidated statements of income. The remaining amount of change in the fair value of the

based on observable mar(cid:60)et data.

Impairment of (cid:30)inancial (cid:25)ssets

(cid:30)inancial assets classified as amorti(cid:75)ed cost are assessed for impairment at the end of each reporting period 
and  a  loss  allowance  is  measured  by  estimating  the  lifetime  expected  credit  losses.  Certain  categories  of 
financial  assets,  such  as  trade  receivables,  that  are  considered  not  to  be  impaired  individually  are  also 
assessed for impairment on a collective basis.

(cid:25) financial asset is considered in default when contractual payments are 9(cid:13) days past due. (cid:25) financial asset 
may also be considered to be in default if internal or external information indicates that the Company is unli(cid:60)ely 
to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before ta(cid:60)ing into account any credit enhancements held. 
(cid:25)  financial  asset  is  written  off  when  there  is  no  reasonable  expectation  of  recovering  the  contractual  cash 
flows.

derivative financial instruments are initially recogni(cid:75)ed at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is

documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that 
are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged items.

The Company has designated certain derivatives as cash flow hedges. These are hedges of firm commitments 
and highly probable forecast transactions. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that

Im(cid:63)a(cid:56)rment of Non(cid:10)f(cid:56)nanc(cid:56)a(cid:59) Assets

The  Company  assesses  whether  goodwill  or  intangible  assets  with  indefinite  lives  may  be  impaired  annually 
during the fourth quarter, or when indicators of impairment are present. (cid:30)or the purpose of impairment testing, 
goodwill arising from acquisitions is allocated to each of the Company(cid:6)s CG(cid:45)s or group of CG(cid:45)s expected to 
benefit  from  the  acquisition.  The  level  at  which  goodwill  is  allocated  represents  the  lowest  level  at  which 
goodwill  is  monitored  for  internal  management  purposes,  and  is  not  higher  than  an  operating  segment. 
Intangible  assets  with  indefinite  lives  that  do  not  have  separate  identifiable  cash  flows  are  also  allocated  to 
CG(cid:45)s or a group of CG(cid:45)s. (cid:25)ny potential impairment of goodwill or intangible assets is identified by comparing 
the  recoverable  amount  of  a  CG(cid:45)  or  a  group  of  CG(cid:45)s  to  its  carrying  value.  The  recoverable  amount  is  the 
higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value(cid:10)in(cid:10)use. If the recoverable amount is less than the carrying 
amount, then the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill and then to 
the other assets pro(cid:10)rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset. In determining fair value less costs 
to sell, recent mar(cid:60)et transactions are ta(cid:60)en into account, if available. In assessing value(cid:10)in(cid:10)use, the estimated 
future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre(cid:10)tax discount rate that reflects current mar(cid:60)et 
assessments of the time value of money and the ris(cid:60)s specific to the asset. Impairment losses are recogni(cid:75)ed 
in the consolidated statements of income.

(cid:30)or non(cid:10)financial assets other than goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, an assessment is made 
at each reporting date whether there is any indication of impairment, or that previously recogni(cid:75)ed impairment 
losses  may  no  longer  exist  or  may  have  decreased.  If  such  indication  exists,  the  Company  estimates  the 
asset’s  recoverable  amount. (cid:25)n  impairment  loss  is  recogni(cid:75)ed  for  the  amount  by  which  the  asset(cid:6)s  carrying 
amount exceeds its recoverable amount. (cid:25) previously recogni(cid:75)ed impairment loss is reversed only if there has 
been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment 
loss  was  recogni(cid:75)ed.  The  reversal  is  limited  so  that  the  carrying  amount  of  the  asset  does  not  exceed  its 
recoverable  amount,  nor  exceed  the  carrying  amount  that  would  have  been  determined,  net  of  depreciation, 
had  no  impairment  loss  been  recogni(cid:75)ed  for  the  asset  in  prior  years.  (cid:43)uch  reversal  is  recogni(cid:75)ed  in  the 
consolidated statements of income.

Leases

The Company assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease, that is, if the contract 
conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

(cid:25)  single  recognition  and  measurement  approach  is  applied  for  all  leases,  except  for  short(cid:10)term  leases  and

liabilities representing lease payments are recogni(cid:75)ed.

(cid:42)ight(cid:10)of(cid:10)use assets are recogni(cid:75)ed at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset 
is available for use) and are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The 
cost of right(cid:10)of(cid:10)use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recogni(cid:75)ed, initial direct costs incurred, and 
lease  payments  made  at  or  before  the  commencement  date,  less  any  lease  incentives  received.  (cid:45)nless  the 
Company  is  reasonably  certain  to  obtain  ownership  of  the  leased  asset  at  the  end  of  the  lease  term,  the 
recogni(cid:75)ed right(cid:10)of(cid:10)use assets are depreciated on a straight(cid:10)line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful 
life  and  the  lease  term,  which  ranges  from  3  to  5  years  for  vehicles  and  1  to  15  years  for  properties. 
(cid:42)ight-of-use assets are subject to impairment.

(cid:19)ease (cid:41)ia(cid:31)i(cid:41)ities

(cid:25)t the commencement date of the lease, lease liabilities are recogni(cid:75)ed and measured at the present value of 
lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments less any lease 
incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be 
paid under residual value guarantees.

The  interest  rate  implicit  in  the  lease  is  used,  if  readily  determinable,  to  calculate  the  present  value  of  lease 
payments. If not readily determinable, the Company(cid:6)s incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement 
date is used in the present value calculation. (cid:25)fter the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is 
reduced by the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there 
is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in(cid:10)substance fixed lease payments or a change in 
the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.

The short(cid:10)term lease recognition exemption is applied to leases that have a lease term of 1(cid:15) months or less 
from  the  commencement  date  and  do  not  contain  a  purchase  option.  The  Company  also  applies  the 
recognition  exemption  for  leases  that  are  considered  low  value.  Lease  payments  on  short(cid:10)term  leases  and 
leases of low(cid:10)value assets are recogni(cid:75)ed as an expense on a straight(cid:10)line basis over the lease term.

The  functional  and  presentation  currency  of  the  Company  is  the  Canadian  dollar.  Each  of  the  Company(cid:6)s 
subsidiaries determines its functional currency.

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate prevailing as at the date 
of  the  transaction  or  at  the  average  rate  for  the  period  when  this  is  a  reasonable  approximation.  (cid:37)onetary 
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency spot rate of

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations (having a functional currency other than the Canadian dollar) are 
translated  into  Canadian  dollars  at  the  rate  of  exchange  prevailing  at  the  consolidated  statement  of  financial

Income Ta(cid:71)es

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to 
taxation authorities. 

Deferred  income  taxes  are  provided  for  using  the  liability  method  on  temporary  differences  between  the  tax 
bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. 
Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  measured  using  enacted  or  substantively  enacted  income  tax  rates 
expected  to  apply  to  taxable  income  in  the  years  in  which  those  temporary  differences  are  expected  to  be 
recovered  or  settled.  The  effect  on  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  of  a  change  in  income  tax  rates  is 
recogni(cid:75)ed  in  the  consolidated  statements  of  income  in  the  period  that  includes  the  date  of  substantive 
enactment. The Company assesses recoverability of deferred tax assets based on the Company’s estimates 
and assumptions. Deferred tax assets are recorded at an amount that the Company considers probable to be 
reali(cid:75)ed. 

Current  and  deferred  income  taxes,  relating  to  items  recogni(cid:75)ed  directly  in  shareholders(cid:6)  equity,  are  also 
recogni(cid:75)ed directly in shareholders(cid:6) equity.

that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences. (cid:25)s a result, recognition of a deferred tax asset and 
a deferred tax liability for temporary differences arising on initial recognition of the related asset and liability is 
required.

The  preparation  of  the  consolidated  financial  statements  in  conformity  with  I(cid:30)(cid:42)(cid:43)  requires  management  to 
ma(cid:60)e judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported

reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. (cid:45)ncertainty about these assumptions

The percentage(cid:10)of(cid:10)completion method is used as the measure of progress for these contracts as it best depicts 
the  transfer  of  assets  to  the  customer,  which  occurs  as  costs  are  incurred  on  the  contracts.  (cid:45)nder  the 
percentage(cid:10)of(cid:10)completion method, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio 
of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs of completion of the performance obligation. (cid:42)evenue is 
recorded  proportionally  as  costs  are  incurred.  Costs  to  fulfill  include  labour,  materials  and  subcontractors(cid:6) 
costs, other direct costs, and an allocation of indirect costs.

This  method  requires  management  to  ma(cid:60)e  a  number  of  estimates  and  assumptions  about  the  expected 
profitability  of  these  contracts.  These  factors  are  routinely  reviewed  as  part  of  the  project  management 
process.

progress towards complete satisfaction of the service.

(cid:37)anagement  ma(cid:60)es  a  number  of  estimates  and  assumptions  surrounding  machine  usage,  machine 
performance,  future  parts  and  labour  pricing,  manufacturers(cid:6)  warranty  coverage  and  other  detailed  factors. 
These factors are routinely reviewed as part of the project management process.

Depreciation  is  calculated  based  on  the  estimated  useful  lives  of  the  assets  and  estimated  residual  values. 
Depreciation expense is sensitive to the estimated service lives and residual values determined for each type 
of asset. (cid:25)ctual lives and residual values may vary depending on a number of factors including technological 
innovation,  product  life  cycles  and  physical  condition  of  the  asset,  prospective  use,  and  maintenance 
programs.

the intangible assets should be allocated, and the CG(cid:45) or group of CG(cid:45)s at which goodwill is monitored for 
internal management purposes. The impairment calculations require the use of estimates related to the future 
operating results and cash(cid:10)generating ability of the assets.

A(cid:59)(cid:59)o(cid:70)ance for Do(cid:68)btf(cid:68)(cid:59) Acco(cid:68)nts

The Company ma(cid:60)es estimates for allowances that represent its estimate of potential losses in respect of trade 
receivables. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss component that relates to individually 
significant  exposures,  and  a  collective  loss  component  established  for  groups  of  similar  assets  in  respect  of 
losses that may have been incurred but not yet specifically identified. The Company(cid:6)s allowance is determined 
by  historical  experiences,  and  considers  factors  including  the  aging  of  the  balances,  the  customer(cid:6)s 
creditworthiness,  current  economic  conditions,  expectation  of  ban(cid:60)ruptcies  and  the  economic  volatility  in  the 
mar(cid:60)ets(cid:12)locations  of  customers.  The  current  economic  environment  has  increased  the  measurement 
uncertainty with respect to the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Share(cid:10)based Com(cid:63)ensat(cid:56)on

The  models  used  to  determine  the  fair  value  of  share(cid:10)based  payments  require  various  estimates  relating  to 
volatility, interest rates, dividend yields, expected life of the options granted and, in the case of (cid:40)(cid:43)(cid:45)s, expected 
share  price  performance.  (cid:30)air  value  inputs  are  subject  to  mar(cid:60)et  factors  as  well  as  internal  estimates.  The 
Company  considers  historic  trends  together  with  any  new  information  to  determine  the  best  estimate  of  fair 
value  at  the  date  of  grant.  (cid:43)eparate  from  the  fair  value  calculation,  the  Company  is  required  to  estimate  the 
expected forfeiture rate of equity(cid:10)settled share-based payments.

Post(cid:10)em(cid:63)(cid:59)oyment (cid:24)enef(cid:56)t P(cid:59)ans

The Company has defined benefit pension plans and other post(cid:10)employment benefit plans that provide certain 
benefits  to  its  employees.  (cid:25)ctuarial  valuations  of  these  plans  are  based  on  assumptions,  which  include 
discount rates, retail price inflation, mortality rates, employee turnover and salary escalation rates. (cid:34)udgment is 
exercised  in  setting  these  assumptions.  These  assumptions  impact  the  measurement  of  the  net  employee 
benefit obligation, funding levels, the net benefit cost and the actuarial gains and losses recogni(cid:75)ed in (cid:39)CI. 

Leases

The lease term is determined as the non(cid:10)cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by 
an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised. 

The Company applies judgment in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the option to renew. 
(cid:25)ll relevant factors that create an economic incentive for the Company to exercise the renewal are considered. 
(cid:25)fter  the  commencement  date,  the  lease  term  is  reassessed  if  there  is  a  significant  event  or  change  in 
circumstances  that  is  within  the  Company(cid:6)s  control  and  affects  its  ability  to  exercise  (or  not  to  exercise)  the 
option to renew. 

If the Company cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in the lease, the incremental borrowing rate 
((cid:2)I(cid:26)(cid:42)(cid:2)) is used to measure lease liabilities. The I(cid:26)(cid:42) is a rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to 
borrow funds, over a similar term and with similar security, in order to obtain an asset of similar value to the 
right(cid:10)of(cid:10)use  asset  in  a  similar  economic  environment.  The  Company  estimates  the  I(cid:26)(cid:42)  using  observable 
mar(cid:60)et interest rates and adjusts for entity(cid:10)specific estimates, such as credit rating.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As at and for the year ended December 31, 2023
($ thousands, except where otherwise indicated) 

The  Company  performed  the  annual  impairment  test  of  intangible  assets  as  at  December  31,  (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3.  The 
recoverable amounts have been determined based on (cid:30)(cid:46)LC(cid:43) based on a range of relevant historical company 
and current mar(cid:60)et multiples of earnings, applied to current earnings, adjusted for current economic conditions. 
(cid:26)ased on the analysis, management determined there was no impairment of indefinite(cid:10)lived intangible assets.

These  valuations  are  determined  using  Level  (cid:15)  inputs,  which  are  observable  inputs  or  inputs  that  can  be 
corroborated by observable mar(cid:60)et data. The calculation of (cid:30)(cid:46)LC(cid:43) for impairment testing is most sensitive to 
the  earnings  multiplier.  (cid:37)anagement  believes  that  any  reasonable  change  in  the  (cid:60)ey  assumptions  used  to 
determine  the  recoverable  amount  would  not  cause  the  carrying  amount  of  any  CG(cid:45)  or  group  of  CG(cid:45)s  to 
exceed its recoverable amount.

The  Company  has  a  $5(cid:13)(cid:13).(cid:13)  million  committed  revolving  credit  facility,  maturing  in  (cid:38)ovember  (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:19),  with  a 
syndicate  of  financial  institutions.  Debt  under  this  facility  is  unsecured  and  ran(cid:60)s  pari  passu  with  debt 
outstanding  under  Toromont’s  existing  debentures.  Interest  is  based  on  a  floating  rate,  primarily  ban(cid:60)ers(cid:6) 
acceptances and prime, plus applicable margins and fees based on the terms of the credit facility.

(cid:38)o amounts were drawn on this revolving credit facility as at December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3 or (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15). (cid:43)tandby letters of 
credit issued utili(cid:75)ed $(cid:17)(cid:13).3 million of the facility as at December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3 ((cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15) (cid:77) $(cid:15)(cid:21).9 million).

These  credit  arrangements  include  covenants,  restrictions  and  events  of  default  usually  present  in  credit

The  fair  value  of  derivative  financial  instruments  is  measured  using  the  discounted  value  of  the  difference 
between  the  contract’s  value  at  maturity  based  on  the  contracted  foreign  exchange  rate  and  the  contract(cid:6)s 
value at maturity based on the comparable foreign exchange rate as at period-end under the same conditions.
The financial institution(cid:6)s credit ris(cid:60) is also ta(cid:60)en into consideration in determining fair value. The valuation is 
determined using Level (cid:15) inputs, which are observable inputs or inputs that can be corroborated by observable 
mar(cid:60)et data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, most significantly foreign exchange spot and 
forward rates.

technique. The discounted factor is based on mar(cid:60)et rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities 
and based on Toromont’s credit ris(cid:60). The Company has no plans to prepay these instruments prior to maturity.

During the years ended December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3 and (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15), there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level (cid:15)

(cid:37)anagement  estimates  that  a  loss  of  $13.9  million  ((cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15)  (cid:77)  gain  of  $1(cid:21).5  million)  would  be  reali(cid:75)ed  if  the 
contracts were terminated on December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3. Certain of these forward contracts are designated as cash 
flow hedges and, accordingly, an unreali(cid:75)ed loss of $11.(cid:19) million ((cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15) (cid:77) unreali(cid:75)ed gain of $13.3 million) has 
been included in (cid:39)CI. These gains will be reclassified to net earnings within the next 1(cid:15) months and will offset 
gains(cid:12)losses  recorded  on  the  underlying  hedged  items,  namely  foreign(cid:10)denominated  accounts  payable  and 
accrued liabilities. Certain of these forward contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges but are entered 
into for periods consistent with foreign currency exposure of the underlying transactions. (cid:25) loss of $(cid:15).3 million
((cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15) (cid:77) gain of $5.(cid:15) million) on forward contracts not designated as hedges is included in net earnings, which 
offsets losses recorded on the associated foreign(cid:10)denominated items, namely accounts payable and accrued 
liabilities. 

(cid:25)ll hedging relationships are formally documented, including the ris(cid:60) management objective and strategy. (cid:39)n 
an  ongoing  basis,  an  assessment  is  made  as  to  whether  the  designated  derivative  financial  instruments 
continue to be effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged transactions.

In  the  normal  course  of  business,  Toromont  is  exposed  to  financial  ris(cid:60)s  that  may  potentially  impact  its 
operating results in one or all of its reportable segments. The Company employs ris(cid:60) management strategies 
with  a  view  to  mitigating  these  ris(cid:60)s  on  a  cost(cid:10)effective  basis.  Derivative  financial  agreements  are  used  to 
manage  exposure  to  fluctuations  in  exchange  rates.  The  Company  does  not  enter  into  derivative  financial 
agreements for speculative purposes.

C(cid:68)rrency R(cid:56)s(cid:58)

The Canadian operations of the Company source the majority of its products and major components from the 
(cid:45)nited (cid:43)tates. Consequently, reported costs of inventory and the transaction prices charged to customers for 
equipment  and  parts  are  affected  by  the  relative  strength  of  the  Canadian  dollar.  The  Company  mitigates 
exchange  rate  ris(cid:60)  by  entering  into  foreign  currency  contracts  to  fix  the  cost  of  imported  inventory  where 
appropriate. In addition, pricing to customers is customarily adjusted to reflect changes in the Canadian dollar 
landed cost of imported goods.

The Company also sells its products to certain customers in (cid:45)(cid:43) currency. The Company mitigates exchange 
rate ris(cid:60) by entering into foreign currency contracts to fix the cash inflows where appropriate.

The Company maintains a hedging policy whereby all significant transactional currency ris(cid:60)s are identified and 
hedged. 

(cid:43)ensitivity (cid:25)nalysis 

The following sensitivity analysis is intended to illustrate the sensitivity to changes in foreign exchange rates on 
the  Company(cid:6)s  financial  instruments  and  show  the  impact  on  net  earnings  and  comprehensive  income.  It  is 
provided as a reasonably possible change in currency in a volatile environment. (cid:30)inancial instruments affected 
by  currency  ris(cid:60)  include  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  accounts  receivable,  accounts  payable  and  accrued 
liabilities and derivative financial instruments. 

(cid:25)s at December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3, a 5(cid:4) wea(cid:60)ening (strengthening) of the Canadian dollar against the (cid:45)(cid:43) dollar would 
result  in  a  $1.(cid:15)  million  (decrease)  increase  in  (cid:39)CI  for  financial  instruments  held  in  foreign  operations,  and  a 
$(cid:13).(cid:20)  million  (decrease)  increase  in  net  earnings  and  $(cid:15)(cid:13).(cid:13)  million  (decrease)  increase  in  (cid:39)CI  for  financial 
instruments held in Canadian operations. 

Cred(cid:56)t R(cid:56)s(cid:58)

(cid:30)inancial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit ris(cid:60) consist of cash and cash equivalents, 
accounts  receivable  and  derivative  financial  instruments.  The  carrying  amount  of  assets  included  on  the 
consolidated statements of financial position represents the maximum credit exposure.

The  Company  has  deposited  cash  and  cash  equivalents  with  reputable  financial  institutions,  from  which 
management believes the ris(cid:60) of loss to be remote.

The  Company  has  accounts  receivable  from  customers  engaged  in  various  industries  including  mining, 
construction,  food  and  beverage,  and  governmental  agencies. These  specific  customers  may  be  affected  by 
economic  factors  that  may  impact  accounts  receivable.  Credit  ris(cid:60)  concentration  with  respect  to  trade 
receivables is mitigated by the Company’s large customer base.

The credit ris(cid:60) associated with derivative financial instruments arises from the possibility that the counterparties 
may default on their obligations. In order to minimi(cid:75)e this ris(cid:60), the Company enters into derivative transactions 
only with highly rated financial institutions.

Interest Rate R(cid:56)s(cid:58)

The Company minimi(cid:75)es its interest rate ris(cid:60) by managing its portfolio of floating(cid:10) and fixed(cid:10)rate debt, as well 
as  managing  the  term  to  maturity. The  Company  may  use  derivative  instruments  such  as  interest  rate  swap

Liquidity  ris(cid:60)  is  the  ris(cid:60)  that  the  Company  may  encounter  difficulties  in  meeting  obligations  associated  with 
financial  liabilities.  (cid:25)s  at  December  31,  (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3,  the  Company  had  unutili(cid:75)ed  lines  of  credit  of  $(cid:17)59.(cid:20)  million

(cid:25)ccounts payable are primarily due within 9(cid:13) days and will be satisfied from current wor(cid:60)ing capital.

The  Company  expects  that  continued  cash  flows  from  operations  in  (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:17),  together  with  currently  available 
cash and cash equivalents on hand and credit facilities, will be more than sufficient to fund its requirements for 
investments in wor(cid:60)ing capital, capital assets and dividend payments through the next 1(cid:15) months, and that the

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As at and for the year ended December 31, 2023
($ thousands, except where otherwise indicated) 

In  (cid:39)ctober  (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)1,  an  annuity  purchase  transaction  was  entered  into  in  which  the  defined  benefit  obligations 
associated with retired plan members were assumed by a third(cid:10)party insurer.

a) Defined (cid:26)enefit (cid:40)ension (cid:40)lans (cid:77) The Company sponsors both registered and non(cid:10)registered pension plans 
that provide pension benefits based on length of service and career average earnings. These plans are closed 
to  new  members.  The  one  funded  plan  is  registered  with  the  (cid:39)ntario  provincial  regulators  and  is  subject  to 
provincial pension legislation as well as the (cid:17)n(cid:32)(cid:44)me (cid:25)a(cid:53) (cid:11)(cid:32)t (Canada).  (cid:25)ssets are held in a pension fund that 
is  legally  separate  from  the  Company  and  cannot  be  used  for  any  purpose  other  than  payment  of  pension 
benefits  and  related  administrative  fees.  (cid:25)ll  plans  are  administered  by  the  Toromont  (cid:40)ension  (cid:37)anagement 
Committee.  (cid:25)n actuarial valuation was completed as of December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15), with the next valuation scheduled 
as at December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)5.  

b)  Executive  (cid:40)ension  (cid:40)lan  (cid:77)  This  plan  is  a  supplemental  pension  plan  and  is  solely  the  obligation  of  the 
Company. (cid:25)ll members of the plan are retired. The Company is not obligated to fund the plan but is obligated 
to pay benefits under the terms of the plan as they come due. (cid:25)s at December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3, the Company has 
posted letters of credit in the amount of $11.(cid:21) million to secure the obligations under this plan. The most recent 
actuarial  valuation  was  completed  as  at  December  31,  (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3.  The  next  valuation  is  scheduled  as  at 
December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:17).

c)  (cid:40)ost(cid:10)employment  (cid:26)enefit  (cid:40)lans  (cid:77)  These  plans  provide  supplementary  post(cid:10)employment  health  and  life 
insurance  coverage  to  certain  employees  as  well  as  disability  coverage  for  active  employees.  The 
post-employment health and life insurance coverage covers a closed group of approximately (cid:17)5(cid:13) retirees and 
no  active  employees  will  receive  post(cid:10)employment  benefits. The  Company  is  not  obligated  to  fund  the  plans 
but  is  obligated  to  pay  benefits  under  the  terms  of  the  plan  as  they  come  due.  The  most  recent  actuarial 
valuation was completed as at (cid:34)anuary 1, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3, with the next valuation scheduled as at (cid:34)anuary 1, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:19).

R(cid:56)s(cid:58)s

Defined  benefit  pension  plans  and  other  post(cid:10)employment  benefit  plans  expose  the  Company  to  ris(cid:60)s  as 
described below(cid:23)

(cid:80)

(cid:80)

(cid:80)

Investment  ris(cid:60)  (cid:77) The  present  value  of  the  defined  benefit  plan  liability  is  calculated  using  a  discount 
rate determined by reference to high(cid:10)quality corporate bond yields(cid:24) if the return on plan assets is below 
this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently, the plans have a relatively balanced investment in equity 
securities,  debt  instruments  and  real  estate  assets.  The  Toromont  (cid:40)ension  (cid:37)anagement  Committee 
reviews  the  asset  mix  and  performance  of  the  plan  assets  on  a  quarterly  basis  with  the  balanced 
investment strategy intention. 
Interest  rate  ris(cid:60)  (cid:77) (cid:25)  decrease  in  the  bond  yields  will  increase  the  plan  liability(cid:24)  however,  this  will  be 
partially offset by higher mar(cid:60)et values of the plan’s holdings in debt instruments.
Longevity  ris(cid:60)  (cid:77)  (cid:25)n  increase  in  the  life  expectancy  of  the  plan  participants  will  increase  the  plan(cid:6)s 
liability by lengthening the period in which benefits are paid.

(cid:80) (cid:43)alary  ris(cid:60)  (cid:77)  The  present  value  of  the  defined  benefit  plan  liability  is  calculated  by  reference  to  the 
future  salaries  of  plan  participants.  (cid:25)s  such,  an  increase  in  the  salary  of  the  plan  participants  will 
increase the plan’s liability.

payment  from  plan  assets.  Toromont  considers,  for  accounting  purposes,  that  this  buy(cid:10)out  transaction 
essentially  eliminates  any  further  legal  or  constructive  obligations  for  benefits,  and  that  a  settlement  has 
occurred.  In  (cid:38)ovember  (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15),  there  were  premium  adjustments  with  insurers  to  reflect  data  adjustments. 
(cid:30)ollowing  the  transaction,  benefits  for  plan  participants  are  protected  under  (cid:25)ssuris,  the  life  insurance 
compensation association designated under the (cid:17)ns(cid:50)ran(cid:32)e (cid:12)(cid:44)mpanies (cid:11)(cid:32)t of Canada.  Toromont considers the 
combined  ris(cid:60)  of  a)  the  insurer  going  ban(cid:60)rupt  and  b)  that  Toromont  would  be  responsible  for  paying  the 
portion of pensions not covered by (cid:25)ssuris should the insurer go ban(cid:60)rupt, remote.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As at and for the year ended December 31, 2023
($ thousands, except where otherwise indicated) 

The fair values of the plan assets were determined based on the following methods(cid:23)

(cid:80) Equity securities (cid:77) generally quoted mar(cid:60)et prices in active mar(cid:60)ets.
(cid:80) Debt securities (cid:77) generally quoted mar(cid:60)et prices in active mar(cid:60)ets.
(cid:80) (cid:42)eal estate assets (cid:77) infrastructure assets valued based on appraisals performed by a qualified external 

appraiser.

(cid:80) Cash and cash equivalents (cid:77) generally recorded at cost, which approximates fair value.

The actual return on plan assets for the year ended December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3 was a gain of $(cid:15)5.5 million ((cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15) (cid:77)
 loss of $3(cid:15).(cid:17) million).

The  Company  expects  to  contribute  $(cid:15)5.(cid:15)  million  to  pension  and  other  benefit  plans  in  (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:17),  inclusive  of 
defined contribution plans. 

The weighted average duration of the defined benefit plan obligations as at December 31, (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3 was 1(cid:19).1 years 
((cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)(cid:15) (cid:77) 15.9 years). 

Sens(cid:56)t(cid:56)(cid:69)(cid:56)ty Ana(cid:59)ys(cid:56)s

(cid:43)ignificant actuarial assumptions for the determination of the defined benefit obligations ((cid:2)D(cid:26)(cid:39)(cid:2)) are discount 
rate  and  life  expectancy.  The  sensitivity  analyses  have  been  determined  based  on  reasonably  possible 
changes  of  the  respective  assumptions  occurring  at  the  end  of  the  reporting  period,  while  holding  all  other 
assumptions constant.

(cid:25)s  at  December  31,  (cid:15)(cid:13)(cid:15)3,  the  following  quantitative  analysis  shows  changes  to  the  significant  actuarial 
assumptions and the corresponding impact to the D(cid:26)(cid:39)(cid:23)

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the D(cid:26)(cid:39) as it is 
unli(cid:60)ely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions 
may be correlated.

22. CAPITAL MANA(cid:29)EMENT

The Company defines capital as the aggregate of shareholders(cid:6) equity and long(cid:10)term debt, less cash and cash 
equivalents. 

The Company(cid:6)s capital management framewor(cid:60) is designed to maintain a flexible capital structure that allows 
for  optimi(cid:75)ation  of  the  cost  of  capital  at  acceptable  ris(cid:60)  while  balancing  the  interests  of  both  equity  and  debt 
holders.

The  Company  generally  targets  a  net  debt  to  total  capitali(cid:75)ation  ratio  of  33(cid:4),  although  there  is  a  degree  of 
variability  associated  with  the  timing  of  cash  flows.  (cid:25)lso,  if  appropriate  opportunities  are  identified,  the 
Company is prepared to significantly increase this ratio depending upon the opportunity.

2(cid:17). SE(cid:29)MENTED INFORMATION

The  Company  has  two  reportable  segments(cid:23)  the  Equipment  Group  and  CI(cid:37)C(cid:39),  each  supported  by  the 
corporate  office. These  segments  are  strategic  business  units  that  offer  different  products  and  services,  and 
each is managed separately. The corporate office provides finance, treasury, legal, human resources and other 
administrative  support  to  the  segments.  The  accounting  policies  of  each  of  the  reportable  segments  are  the 
same as the material accounting policies described in note (cid:15).

The operating segments are being reported based on the financial information provided to the Chief Executive 
(cid:39)fficer  and  Chief  (cid:30)inancial  (cid:39)fficer,  who  have  been  identified  as  the  Chief  (cid:39)perating  Decision  (cid:37)a(cid:60)ers 
((cid:2)C(cid:39)D(cid:37)s(cid:2))  in  monitoring  segment  performance  and  allocating  resources  between  segments.  The  C(cid:39)D(cid:37)s 
assess segment performance based on segment operating income, which is measured differently than income 
from operations in the consolidated financial statements. Corporate overheads are allocated to the segments 
based  on  revenue.  Income  taxes,  interest  expense,  interest  and  investment  income  are  managed  at  a 
consolidated level and are not allocated to the reportable operating segments. Current income taxes, deferred 
income  taxes  and  certain  financial  assets  and  liabilities  are  not  allocated  to  the  segments  as  they  are  also 
managed on a consolidated level.

The  aggregation  of  the  operating  segments  is  based  on  the  economic  characteristics  of  the  business  units. 
These business units are considered to have similar economic characteristics including nature of products and 
services, class of customers and mar(cid:60)ets served and similar distribution models. 

(cid:38)o reportable segment is reliant on any single external customer.
