Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Description of the Business
Navistar International Corporation ("NIC"), incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1993, is a holding company whose principal operating entities are Navistar, Inc. ("NI") and Navistar Financial Corporation ("NFC"). References herein to the "Company," "we," "our," or "us" refer collectively to NIC and its consolidated subsidiaries, including certain variable interest entities ("VIEs") of which we are the primary beneficiary. We operate in four principal industry segments: Truck, Parts, Global Operations (collectively called "Manufacturing operations"), and Financial Services, which consists of NFC and our foreign finance operations (collectively called "Financial Services operations"). These segments are discussed in Note 11, Segment Reporting.
Our fiscal year ends on October 31. As such, all references to 2017 and 2016 contained within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate to the fiscal year, unless otherwise indicated.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of our Manufacturing operations, which include majority-owned dealers ("Dealcors"), and our Financial Services operations, including VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiary. The effects of transactions among consolidated entities have been eliminated to arrive at the consolidated amounts.
We prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with United States ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for comprehensive annual financial statements.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2016, which should be read in conjunction with the disclosures therein. In our opinion, these interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual operating results.
Variable Interest Entities
We have an interest in several VIEs, primarily joint ventures, established to manufacture or distribute products and enhance our operational capabilities. We have determined for certain of our VIEs that we are the primary beneficiary because we have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and we have the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, we include in our consolidated financial statements the assets and liabilities and results of operations of those entities, even though we may not own a majority voting interest. The liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating these VIEs do not represent additional claims on our general assets; rather they represent claims against the specific assets of these VIEs. Assets of these entities are not readily available to satisfy claims against our general assets.
We are the primary beneficiary of our Blue Diamond Parts, LLC ("BDP") joint venture with Ford Motor Company ("Ford"). As a result, our Consolidated Balance Sheets include assets of $35 million and $51 million and liabilities of $13 million and $16 million as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively, including $3 million and $6 million of cash and cash equivalents, at the respective dates, which are not readily available to satisfy claims against our general assets. The creditors of BDP do not have recourse to our general credit.
Our Financial Services segment consolidates several VIEs. As a result, our Consolidated Balance Sheets include secured assets of $901 million and $865 million as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively, and liabilities of $773 million and $722 million as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively, all of which are involved in securitizations that are treated as asset-backed debt. In addition, our Consolidated Balance Sheets include secured assets of $242 million and $249 million as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively, and corresponding liabilities of $156 million and $136 million, at the respective dates, which are related to other secured transactions that do not qualify for sale accounting treatment, and therefore, are treated as borrowings secured by operating and finance leases. Investors that hold securitization debt have a priority claim on the cash flows generated by their respective securitized assets to the extent that the related VIEs are required to make principal and interest payments. Investors in securitizations of these entities have no recourse to our general credit.

We also have an interest in other VIEs, which we do not consolidate because we are not the primary beneficiary. Our financial support and maximum loss exposure relating to these non-consolidated VIEs are not material to our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
We use the equity method to account for our investments in entities that we do not control under the voting interest or variable interest models, but where we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies. Equity in income of non-consolidated affiliates includes our share of the net income of these entities.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is principally determined using the first-in, first-out method. Our gross used truck inventory decreased to $280 million at July 31, 2017 from $410 million at October 31, 2016, offset by reserves of $174 million and $208 million, respectively.
In valuing our used truck inventory, we are required to make assumptions regarding the level of reserves required to value inventories at their net realizable value ("NRV"). Our judgments and estimates for used truck inventory are based on an analysis of current and forecasted sales prices, aging of and demand for used trucks, and the mix of sales through various market channels. The NRV is subject to change based on numerous conditions, including age, specifications, mileage, timing of sales, market mix and current and forecasted pricing. While calculations are made after taking these factors into account, significant management judgment regarding expectations for future events is involved. Future events that could significantly influence our judgment and related estimates include general economic conditions in markets where our products are sold, actions of our competitors, and the ability to sell used trucks in a timely manner.
The following table presents the activity in our used truck reserve:

_________________________
(A)
Additions charged to expense reflect the increase of the reserve for inventory on hand. During the second quarter of 2017, we implemented a shift in market mix to include an increase in volume to certain export markets, which have a lower price point as compared to sales through our domestic channels, and lower domestic pricing to enable higher sales velocity. In the third quarter of 2017 and 2016, we recorded a charge of $14 million and $40 million, respectively, in Costs of Products Sold in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(B)
Deductions/Other adjustments reflect reductions of the reserve primarily related to the sale of units to certain export markets and our currency translation adjustments.
Property and Equipment
We report land, buildings, leasehold improvements, machinery and equipment (including tooling and pattern equipment), furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and equipment leased to others at cost, net of depreciation. We initially record assets under capital lease obligations at the lower of their fair value or the present value of the aggregate future minimum lease payments. We depreciate our assets using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets.
We test for impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group (hereinafter referred to as "asset group") may not be recoverable by comparing the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the operation of the asset group and its eventual disposition to the carrying value. During the third quarter of 2017, we identified a triggering event related to continued economic weakness in Brazil which resulted in the decline in forecasted results for the Brazilian asset group. The Brazilian asset group is included in the Global Operations segment. As a result, we estimated the recoverable amount of the asset group and determined that the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows exceeds the carrying value and the asset group was not impaired. Significant adverse changes to our business environment and future cash flows could cause us to record impairment charges in future periods, which could be material.

_________________________
(A)
Adjustments to pre-existing warranties reflect changes in our estimate of warranty costs for products sold in prior periods. Such adjustments typically occur when claims experience deviates from historic and expected trends. Our warranty liability is generally affected by component failure rates, repair costs, and the timing of failures. Future events and circumstances related to these factors could materially change our estimates and require adjustments to our liability. In addition, new product launches require a greater use of judgment in developing estimates until historical experience becomes available.
In the second quarter of 2016, we recorded a charge for adjustments to pre-existing warranties of $46 million or $0.56 per diluted share. The pre-existing charges primarily related to increases in both claim frequency and cost of repair across both the Medium Duty and Big Bore engine families. These charges increase the reserve for Navistar's standard warranty obligations as well as the loss positions related to our Big Bore extended service contract.
Extended Warranty Programs
The amount of deferred revenue related to extended warranty programs was $280 million and $325 million at July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively. Revenue recognized under our extended warranty programs was $28 million and $109 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, respectively, and $37 million and $113 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, respectively.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but are not limited to, pension and other postretirement benefits, allowance for doubtful accounts, income tax contingency accruals and valuation allowances, product warranty accruals, used truck inventory valuations, asbestos and other product liability accruals, asset impairment charges, restructuring charges and litigation-related accruals. Actual results could differ from our estimates.
Concentration Risks
Our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows are subject to concentration risks related to our significant unionized workforce. As of July 31, 2017, approximately 6,600, or 94%, of our hourly workers and approximately 900, or 17%, of our salaried workers, are represented by labor unions and are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Our future operations may be affected by changes in governmental procurement policies, tax policies, budget considerations, changing national defense requirements, and political, regulatory and economic developments in the U.S. and certain foreign countries (primarily Canada, Mexico, and Brazil).

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2017-01, "Business Combinations" (Topic 805). This ASU provides a new framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. This ASU creates an initial screening test (Step 1) that reduces the population of transactions that an entity needs to analyze to determine whether there is an input and substantive processes in the acquisition or disposal (Step 2). Fewer transactions are expected to involve acquiring or selling a business. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Our effective date for this ASU is November 1, 2018. Adoption will require a prospective transition. We do not expect the impact of this ASU to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows" (Topic 230). This ASU requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, and cash equivalents, including amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Our effective date for this ASU is November 1, 2018. Adoption will require a retrospective transition. We do not expect the impact of this ASU to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, "Income Taxes” (Topic 740). This ASU update requires entities to recognize the income tax consequences of many intercompany asset transfers at the transaction date. The seller and buyer will immediately recognize the current and deferred income tax consequences of an intercompany transfer of an asset other than inventory. The tax consequences were previously deferred. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Our effective date for this ASU is November 1, 2018. Adoption will require a modified retrospective transition. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses” (Topic 326). The ASU sets forth an expected credit loss model which requires the measurement of expected credit losses for financial instruments based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. Adoption will require a modified retrospective transition. Our effective date is November 1, 2020. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases" (Topic 842). This ASU requires lessees to recognize, on the balance sheet, assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases of greater than twelve months. The accounting by lessors will remain largely unchanged. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Our effective date for this ASU is November 1, 2019. Adoption will require a modified retrospective transition. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, "Revenue Recognition." This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, which postponed the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 to fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted on the original effective date for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Our effective date for this ASU is November 1, 2018. We are in the process of completing our initial assessment of the potential impact on our consolidated financial statements and have not concluded on our adoption methodology.
2. Restructurings and Impairments
Restructuring charges are recorded based on restructuring plans that have been committed to by management and are, in part, based upon management's best estimates of future events. Changes to the estimates may require future adjustments to the restructuring liabilities.

North American Manufacturing Restructuring Activities
We continue to focus on our core Truck and Parts businesses and evaluate our portfolio of assets to validate their strategic and financial fit. This allows us to close or divest non-strategic businesses, and identify opportunities to restructure our business and rationalize our Manufacturing operations in an effort to optimize our cost structure. For those areas that fall outside our strategic businesses, we are evaluating alternatives which could result in additional restructuring and other related charges in the future, including but not limited to: (i) impairments, (ii) costs for employee and contractor termination and other related benefits, and (iii) charges for pension and other postretirement contractual benefits and curtailments. These charges could be significant.
Chatham restructuring activities
In the third quarter of 2011, we committed to close our Chatham, Ontario heavy truck plant, which had been idled since June 2009. At that time, we recognized curtailment and contractual termination charges related to postretirement plans. Based on a ruling regarding pension benefits received from the Financial Services Tribunal in Ontario, Canada, in the third quarter of 2014, we recognized an additional charge of $14 million related to the 2011 closure of the Chatham, Ontario plant. Unsuccessful efforts to appeal the ruling in the Ontario court system ended in December 2015. On April 25, 2016, we filed a qualified partial wind-up report for approval by the Financial Services Commission of Ontario ("FSCO"). On January 12, 2017, FSCO issued its approval of the partial wind-up report. On February 27, 2017, we finalized the resolution of statutory severance pay for former employees related to the closure of our Chatham, Ontario plant, resulting in a charge of $6 million in the first quarter of 2017. During the third quarter of 2017, we finalized the Chatham closure agreement. This resulted in the release of $66 million in other post-employment benefit ("OPEB") liabilities. In addition, a pension settlement accounting charge of $23 million was recorded as a result of lump-sum payments made to certain pension plan participants. These charges and benefits were recorded in our Truck segment within Restructuring charges in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Melrose Park Facility restructuring activities
In the third quarter of 2017, we committed to a plan to cease engine production at our plant in Melrose Park, Illinois. (“Melrose Park Facility”) in the second quarter of fiscal year 2018. As a result, in the third quarter of 2017, we recognized charges of $41 million in our Truck segment. The charges include $23 million related to pension and OPEB liabilities and $8 million for severance pay recorded in Restructuring charges in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We also recorded $10 million of inventory reserves and other related charges Costs of products sold in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
See Note 7, Postretirement benefits for further discussion.
Asset Impairments
In the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, we concluded that we had a triggering event in connection with the sale of our fabrication business in Conway, Arkansas requiring the impairment of certain assets. As a result, we recorded charges of $5 million in our Truck segment. In August 2017, we completed the sale of the business.

14




Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
(Unaudited)


In the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, we concluded that we had triggering events related to certain assets under operating leases. As a result, we recorded charges of $1 million and $8 million, respectively, in our Truck segment.
In the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, we concluded that we had triggering events related to certain long-lived assets. As a result, we recorded impairment charges of $11 million and $16 million, respectively, in our Truck segment.
In the nine months ended July 31, 2016, we concluded that we had a triggering event in connection with the potential sale of Pure Power Technologies, LLC ("PPT"), a components business focused on air and fuel systems, requiring the impairment of certain assets. As a result, we recorded charges of $3 million in our Truck segment. In February 2016, we completed the sale of PPT.
These charges were recorded in Asset impairment charges in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
See Note 9, Fair Value Measurements, for information on the valuation of impaired operating leases and other assets.
3. Finance Receivables
Finance receivables are receivables of our Financial Services operations. Finance receivables generally consist of wholesale notes and accounts, as well as retail notes, finance leases and accounts. Total finance receivables reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Total assets of our Financial Services operations net of intercompany balances were $2.2 billion and $2.1 billion as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively. Included in total assets of our Financial Services operations were finance receivables of $1.8 billion and $1.7 billion as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively. We have two portfolio segments of finance receivables that we distinguish based on the type of customer and nature of the financing inherent to each portfolio. The retail portfolio segment represents loans or leases to end-users for the purchase or lease of vehicles. The wholesale portfolio segment represents loans to dealers to finance their inventory.

_________________________
(A)
The current portion of finance receivables is computed based on contractual maturities. Actual cash collections typically vary from the contractual cash flows because of prepayments, extensions, delinquencies, credit losses, and renewals.
Securitizations
Our Financial Services operations transfer wholesale notes, retail accounts receivable, finance leases, and operating leases to special purpose entities ("SPEs"), which generally are only permitted to purchase these assets, issue asset-backed securities, and make payments on the securities issued. In addition to servicing receivables, our continued involvement in the SPEs may include an economic interest in the transferred receivables and, in some cases, managing exposure to interest rate changes on the securities using interest rate swaps or interest rate caps. There were no transfers of finance receivables that qualified for sale accounting treatment as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, and as a result, the transferred finance receivables are included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and the related interest earned is included in Finance revenues.
We transfer eligible finance receivables into wholesale note owner trusts in order to issue asset-backed securities. These trusts are VIEs of which we are determined to be the primary beneficiary and, therefore, the assets and liabilities of the trusts are included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The outstanding balance of finance receivables transferred into these VIEs was $820 million and $829 million as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively. Other finance receivables related to secured transactions that do not qualify for sale accounting treatment were $122 million and $108 million as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively. For more information on assets and liabilities of consolidated VIEs and other securitizations accounted for as secured borrowings by our Financial Services segment, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Facility
In February 2017, the Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Facility ("Term Loan") was amended, pursuant to which the Company's remaining approximately $1.0 billion loan was repriced and provisions regarding European Union bail-in legislation were inserted. The amendment reduces the interest rate applicable to the outstanding loan by 1.50%. Under the terms of the amendment, the interest rate on the outstanding loan is based, at our option, on an adjusted Eurodollar Rate, plus a margin of 4.00%, or a Base Rate, plus a margin of 3.00%. In connection with the amendment, we paid a consent fee equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount, a call protection fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount, and certain other fees. During the second quarter of 2017, we recorded a charge of $4 million related to certain third party fees and debt issuance costs associated with the repricing of our Term Loan. The remaining debt issuance costs were recorded as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the Term Loan and will be amortized through Interest expense over the remaining life of the Term Loan.

Senior Notes
In October 2009, we completed the sale of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of our 8.25% Senior Notes due 2022 ("Senior Notes"). In March 2013, we completed the sale of an additional $300 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes. In January 2017, we issued an additional $250 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes. Interest related to the Senior Notes is payable on May 1 and November 1 of each year until the maturity date of November 1, 2021. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company.
We received net proceeds of approximately $250 million from the January 2017 issuance of additional Senior Notes, which included accrued interest of $4 million, offset by underwriter fees of $4 million. The debt issuance costs were recorded as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the Senior Notes and will be amortized through Interest expense over the remaining life of the Senior Notes. As a result of the transaction, the effective interest rate of the Senior Notes is now 8.5%. The proceeds from the January 2017 sale of additional Senior Notes are being used for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures.
Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility
In August 2017, we amended and extended our Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility which was originally due in May 2018. The 2017 amendment extended the maturity date to August 2022, subject to a springing maturity based upon the maturity of our Term Loan and Senior Notes, and reduced the revolving facility from $175 million to a maximum of $125 million. Our borrowing capacity under the amended facility was previously subject to a $35 million liquidity block and is now subject to a $13 million liquidity block, less outstanding standby letters of credit issued under this facility, and is impacted by inventory levels at certain aftermarket parts inventory locations. As of July 31, 2017, we had no borrowings, and we have limited availability to borrow under the Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility. However, we maintain capacity under our various debt arrangements to incur incremental debt.
Financial Services Operations
Asset-backed Debt
In November 2016, the maturity date of the variable funding notes ("VFN") facility was extended from May 2017 to November 2017, and the maximum capacity was reduced from $500 million to $450 million. In May 2017, the VFN was extended to May 2018, and the maximum capacity was reduced to $425 million. The VFN facility is secured by assets of the wholesale note owner trust.
In May 2017, Truck Retail Accounts Corporation ("TRAC"), one of our consolidated SPEs, renewed its $100 million revolving facility to April 2018. Borrowings under this facility are secured by eligible retail accounts receivable.
In June 2017, Navistar Financial Securities Corporation ("NFSC") issued $250 million of two-year investor notes secured by assets of the wholesale note owner trust. Proceeds were used, in part, to replace the $250 million of investor notes that matured in June 2017.
Bank Credit Facilities
In May 2016, NFC amended and extended its 2011 bank credit facility which was originally due in December 2016. The 2016 amendment extended the maturity date to June 2018 and initially reduced the revolving portion of the facility from $500 million to $400 million. In December 2016, and in accordance with the amendment, the revolving portion of the facility was reduced to a maximum of $275 million, the term loan portion of the facility was paid down to $82 million, and the quarterly principal payments were reduced from $9 million to $2 million. The borrowings on the revolving portion of the facility totaled $274 million as of July 31, 2017. The balance of the term loan portion of the facility was $78 million as of July 31, 2017. The amendment allows NFC to increase revolving or term loan commitments, subject to obtaining commitments from existing or new lenders to provide additional or increased revolving commitments and/or additional term loans, to permit a maximum total facility size of $700 million after giving effect to any such increase and without taking into account the non-extended loans and commitments.
Commercial Paper
Effective February 2017, our Mexican financial services operation entered into a five-year commercial paper program for up to ₱1.8 billion (the equivalent of approximately US$102 million at July 31, 2017). This program replaced the program that matured in December 2016.

7. Postretirement Benefits
Defined Benefit Plans
We provide postretirement benefits to a substantial portion of our employees and retirees. Costs associated with postretirement benefits include pension and postretirement health care expenses for employees, retirees, surviving spouses and dependents.
Generally, the pension plans are non-contributory. Our policy is to fund the pension plans in accordance with applicable U.S. and Canadian government regulations and to make additional contributions from time to time. For the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, we contributed $21 million and $67 million, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, $20 million and $60 million, respectively, to our pension plans to meet regulatory funding requirements. We expect to contribute approximately $46 million to our pension plans during the remainder of 2017.
We primarily fund OPEB obligations, such as retiree medical, in accordance with the 1993 Settlement Agreement (the "1993 Settlement Agreement"), which requires us to fund a portion of the plans' annual service cost to a retiree benefit trust (the "Base Trust"). The 1993 Settlement Agreement resolved a class action lawsuit originally filed in 1992 regarding the restructuring of our then applicable retiree health care and life insurance benefits. Contributions for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, and 2016, as well as anticipated contributions for the remainder of 2017, are not material.
Components of Net Periodic Benefit Expense
Net periodic benefit expense included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations, and other amounts recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Deficit, for the periods ended July 31 is comprised of the following:

In 2016, we changed the approach utilized to estimate the service cost and interest cost components of net periodic benefit cost for our major defined benefit postretirement plans. Historically, we estimated the service cost and interest cost components using a single weighted average discount rate derived from the yield curve used to measure the benefit obligation at the beginning of the period. In 2016, we began using a spot rate approach for the estimation of service and interest cost for our major plans by applying specific spot rates along the yield curve to the relevant projected cash flows to provide a better estimate of service and interest costs.
In April 2016, we filed a qualified partial wind-up report for approval by FSCO related to the 2011 closure of our Chatham, Ontario plant. FSCO provided formal approval in January 2017. As a result of an ongoing administration review ordered in conjunction with the partial wind-up, we recognized $1 million of contractual termination charges in the first quarter of 2017. During the third quarter of 2017, we finalized the Chatham closure agreement. This resulted in the release of $66 million in other postemployment benefit ("OPEB") liabilities. In addition, a pension settlement accounting charge of $23 million was recorded as a result of lump-sum payments made to certain pension plan participants. These charges and benefits were recorded in our Truck segment within Restructuring charges in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 2, Restructurings and Impairments for further discussion. As a result of the pension and OPEB plan remeasurements in connection with the finalization of the Chatham closure agreement, net actuarial gains of $21 million were recognized as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the third quarter of 2017.

In the third quarter of 2017, we committed to a plan to cease engine production at our Melrose Park Facility in the second quarter of fiscal year 2018. As a result, in the third quarter of 2017, we recognized $9 million of pension and $4 million of OPEB contractual termination benefits charges and $10 million of OPEB curtailment charges. These charges were recorded in our Truck segment within Restructuring charges in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 2, Restructurings and Impairments for further discussion. A pension curtailment gain of $2 million and net actuarial gains of $91 million resulting from pension and OPEB remeasurements in connection with our Melrose Park Facility announcement were recognized as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the third quarter of 2017.
Also, in the third quarter of 2017, in accordance with the intraperiod tax allocation rules, we recorded a net benefit of $35 million related to domestic continuing operations in Income tax expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations, and an offsetting reduction in Other comprehensive income due to the remeasurement of certain pension and OPEB plans.
Defined Contribution Plans and Other Contractual Arrangements
Our defined contribution plans cover a substantial portion of domestic salaried employees and certain domestic represented employees. The defined contribution plans contain a 401(k) feature and provide most participants with a matching contribution from the Company. We deposit the matching contribution annually. Many participants covered by the plans receive annual Company contributions to their retirement accounts based on an age-weighted percentage of the participant's eligible compensation for the calendar year. Defined contribution expense pursuant to these plans was $7 million and $22 million in the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively.
In accordance with the 1993 Settlement Agreement, an independent Retiree Supplemental Benefit Trust (the "Supplemental Trust") was established. The Supplemental Trust, and the benefits it provides to certain retirees pursuant to a certain Retiree Supplemental Benefit Program under the 1993 Settlement Agreement ("Supplemental Benefit Program"), is not part of our consolidated financial statements.
Our contingent profit sharing obligations under a certain Supplemental Benefit Trust Profit Sharing Plan ("Supplemental Benefit Trust Profit Sharing Plan") will continue until certain funding targets defined by the 1993 Settlement Agreement are met. We have recorded no profit sharing accruals based on the operating performance of the entities that are included in the determination of qualifying profits. For more information on pending arbitration regarding the Supplemental Benefit Trust Profit Sharing Plan, see Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies.
8. Income Taxes
We compute, on a quarterly basis, an estimated annual effective tax rate considering ordinary income and related income tax expense. For all periods presented, U.S. and certain foreign results are excluded from ordinary income due to ordinary losses for which no benefit can be recognized. Ordinary income refers to income (loss) before income tax expense excluding significant unusual or infrequently occurring items. The tax effect of a significant unusual or infrequently occurring item is recorded in the interim period in which the item occurs. Items included in income tax expense in the periods in which they occur include the tax effects of cumulative changes in tax laws or rates, foreign exchange gains and losses, adjustments to uncertain tax positions, and adjustments to our valuation allowance due to changes in judgment regarding the ability to realize deferred tax assets in future years. In the third quarter of 2017, in accordance with the intraperiod tax allocation rules, we recorded a net benefit of $35 million in Income tax expense related to domestic continuing operations, and an offsetting reduction in Other comprehensive income, which resulted from gains due to the remeasurement of certain pension and OPEB plans. The net benefit was offset by an increase in foreign taxes in Canada and Mexico. For more information, see Note 7, Postretirement Benefits.
We have evaluated the need to maintain a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets based on our assessment of whether it is more likely than not that deferred tax benefits will be realized through the generation of future taxable income. Appropriate consideration is given to all available evidence, both positive and negative, in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. We continue to maintain a valuation allowance on the majority of our U.S. deferred tax assets as well as certain foreign deferred tax assets that we believe, on a more-likely-than-not basis, will not be realized based on current forecasted results. For all remaining deferred tax assets, while we believe that it is more likely than not that they will be realized, we believe that it is reasonably possible that additional deferred tax asset valuation allowances could be required in the next twelve months.
We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of July 31, 2017, the amount of liability for uncertain tax positions was $49 million. The liability at July 31, 2017 has a recorded offsetting tax benefit associated with various issues that total $14 million. If the unrecognized tax benefits are recognized, all would impact our effective tax rate. However, to the extent

21




Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
(Unaudited)

we continue to maintain a full valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets, the effect may be in the form of an increase in the deferred tax asset related to our net operating loss carryforward, which would be offset by a full valuation allowance.
We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as part of Income tax expense. For the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, total interest and penalties related to our uncertain tax positions resulted in an income tax expense of less than $1 million, and $1 million, respectively.
We have open tax years back to 2001 with various significant taxing jurisdictions including the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Brazil. In connection with the examination of tax returns, contingencies may arise that generally result from differing interpretations of applicable tax laws and regulations as they relate to the amount, timing, or inclusion of revenues or expenses in taxable income, or the sustainability of tax credits to reduce income taxes payable. We believe we have sufficient accruals for our contingent tax liabilities. Annual tax provisions include amounts considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result from examinations of prior year tax returns, although actual results may differ. While it is probable that the liability for unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease during the next twelve months, we do not expect any such change would have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
9. Fair Value Measurements
For assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis, a three-level hierarchy of measurements based upon observable and unobservable inputs is used to arrive at fair value. Observable inputs are developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our assumptions about valuation based on the best information available in the circumstances. Depending on the inputs, we classify each fair value measurement as follows:
Level 1—based upon quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets,
Level 2—based upon quoted prices for similar instruments, prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or model-derived valuations, all of whose significant inputs are observable, and
Level 3—based upon one or more significant unobservable inputs.
The following section describes key inputs and assumptions in our valuation methodologies:
Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Equivalents—We classify highly liquid investments, with an original maturity of 90 days or less, including U.S. Treasury bills, federal agency securities, and commercial paper, as cash equivalents. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity and highly liquid nature of these instruments.
Marketable Securities—Our marketable securities portfolios are classified as available-for-sale and primarily include investments in U.S. government securities and commercial paper with an original maturity greater than 90 days. We use quoted prices from active markets to determine fair value.
Derivative Assets and Liabilities—We measure the fair value of derivatives assuming that the unit of account is an individual derivative transaction and that each derivative could be sold or transferred on a stand-alone basis. We classify within Level 2 our derivatives that are traded over-the-counter and valued using internal models based on observable market inputs. In certain cases, market data is not available and we estimate inputs such as in situations where trading in a particular commodity is not active. Measurements based upon these unobservable inputs are classified within Level 3.
Guarantees—We provide certain guarantees of payments and residual values, to which losses are generally capped, to specific counterparties. The fair value of these guarantees includes a contingent component and a non-contingent component that are based upon internally developed models using unobservable inputs. We classify these liabilities within Level 3. For more information regarding guarantees, see Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies.
Impaired Finance Receivables and Impaired Assets Under Operating Leases— Fair values of the underlying collateral are determined by current and forecasted sales prices, aging of and demand for used trucks, and the mix of sales through various market channels. For more information regarding impaired finance receivables, see Note 4, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, and for more information regarding impaired assets under operating leases, see Note 2, Restructuring and Impairments.
Impaired Property, Plant and Equipment— We measure the fair value by discounting future cash flows expected to be received from the operation of, or disposition of, the asset or asset group that has been determined to be impaired. For more information regarding the impairment of property, plant and equipment, see Note 2, Restructuring and Impairments.

In addition to the methods and assumptions we use for the financial instruments recorded at fair value as discussed above, we use the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value for our other financial instruments that are not marked to market on a recurring basis. The carrying amounts of Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, and Accounts payable approximate fair values because of the short-term maturity and highly liquid nature of these instruments. Finance receivables generally consist of retail and wholesale accounts and retail and wholesale notes. The carrying amounts of Trade and other receivables and retail and wholesale accounts approximate fair values as a result of the short-term nature of the receivables. The carrying amounts of wholesale notes approximate fair values as a result of the short-term nature of the wholesale notes and their variable interest rate terms. Due to the nature of the aforementioned financial instruments, they have been excluded from the fair value amounts presented in the table below.
The fair values of our retail notes are estimated by discounting expected cash flows at estimated current market rates. The fair values of our retail notes are classified as Level 3 financial instruments.
The fair values of our debt instruments classified as Level 1 were determined using quoted market prices. The 6.5% Tax Exempt Bonds, due 2040, are traded, but the trading market is illiquid, and as a result, the Loan Agreement underlying the Tax Exempt Bonds is classified as Level 2. The fair values of our Level 3 debt instruments are generally determined using internally developed valuation techniques such as discounted cash flow modeling. Inputs such as discount rates and credit spreads reflect our estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the instrument and may be unobservable.

10. Commitments and Contingencies
Guarantees
We occasionally provide guarantees that could obligate us to make future payments if the primary entity fails to perform under its contractual obligations. We have recognized liabilities for some of these guarantees in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as they meet the recognition and measurement provisions of U.S. GAAP. In addition to the liabilities that have been recognized, we are contingently liable for other potential losses under various guarantees. We do not believe that claims that may be made under such guarantees would have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Under the terms of the Navistar Capital Operating Agreement, BMO Financial Group and its wholly-owned subsidiary BMO Harris Bank N.A. (together "BMO") is our third-party preferred source of retail customer financing for equipment offered by us and our dealers in the U.S. We refer to this alliance as "Navistar Capital." The Navistar Capital Operating Agreement contains a loss sharing arrangement for certain credit losses. Under the loss sharing arrangement, as amended, we generally reimburse our financing partner for credit losses in excess of the first 10% of the financed value of a contract; for certain leases we reimburse our financing partner for credit losses up to a maximum of the first 9.5% of the financed value of those lease contracts. Our exposure to loss is mitigated because contracts under the Navistar Capital Operating Agreement are secured by the financed equipment. There were $1.4 billion and $1.5 billion of outstanding loan principal and operating lease payments receivable at July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively, financed through the Navistar Capital Operating Agreement and subject to the loss sharing arrangements in the U.S. The related financed values of these outstanding contracts were $2.3 billion and $2.4 billion at July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively. Generally, we do not carry the contracts under the Navistar Capital Operating Agreement on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. However, for certain Navistar Capital financed contracts which we have accounted for as borrowings, we have recognized equipment leased to others of $114 million and $48 million and financed lease obligations of $127 million and $51 million, in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively.
We also have issued a limited number of residual value guarantees, for which losses are generally capped. If substantial risk of loss has not transferred, we account for these arrangements as operating leases and revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. If substantial risk of loss has transferred, revenue is recognized upon sale and the amounts of the guarantees are estimated and recorded. Our guarantees are contingent upon the fair value of the leased assets at the end of the lease term. We have recognized liabilities for some of these guarantees in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as they meet recognition and measurement provisions. In addition to the liabilities that have been recognized, we are contingently liable for other potential losses under various guarantees that are not recognized in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not believe claims that may be made under such guarantees would have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
We obtain certain stand-by letters of credit and surety bonds from third-party financial institutions in the ordinary course of business when required under contracts or to satisfy insurance-related requirements. As of July 31, 2017, the amount of stand-by letters of credit and surety bonds was $89 million.
In addition, as of July 31, 2017, we have $21 million of outstanding purchase commitments and contracts with $37 million of cancellation fees with expiration dates through 2021.
In the ordinary course of business, we also provide routine indemnifications and other guarantees, the terms of which range in duration and often are not explicitly defined. We do not believe these will result in claims that would have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Environmental Liabilities
We have been named a potentially responsible party ("PRP"), in conjunction with other parties, in a number of cases arising under an environmental protection law, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, popularly known as the "Superfund" law. These cases involve sites that allegedly received wastes from current or former Company locations. Based on information available to us which, in most cases, consists of data related to quantities and characteristics of material generated at current or former Company locations, material allegedly shipped by us to these disposal sites, as well as cost estimates from PRPs and/or federal or state regulatory agencies for the cleanup of these sites, a reasonable estimate is calculated of our share of the probable costs, if any, and accruals are recorded in our consolidated financial statements. These accruals are generally recognized no later than upon completion of the remedial feasibility study and are not discounted to their present value. We review all accruals on a regular basis and believe that, based on these calculations, our share of the potential additional costs for the cleanup of each site will not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

26




Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
(Unaudited)

In addition, other sites formerly owned by us or where we are currently operating have been identified as having soil and groundwater contamination. While investigations and cleanup activities continue at these sites, we believe that we have appropriate accruals to cover costs to complete the cleanup of all sites.
We have accrued $20 million for these and other environmental matters, which are included within Other current liabilities and Other noncurrent liabilities, as of July 31, 2017. The majority of these accrued liabilities are expected to be paid subsequent to 2018.
Along with other vehicle manufacturers, we have been subject to an increased number of asbestos-related claims in recent years. In general, these claims relate to illnesses alleged to have resulted from asbestos exposure from component parts found in older vehicles, although some cases relate to the alleged presence of asbestos in our facilities. In these claims, we are generally not the sole defendant, and the claims name as defendants numerous manufacturers and suppliers of a wide variety of products allegedly containing asbestos. We have strongly disputed these claims, and it has been our policy to defend against them vigorously. Historically, the actual damages paid out to claimants have not been material in any year to our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. It is possible that the number of these claims will continue to grow, and that the costs for resolving asbestos related claims could become significant in the future.
Legal Proceedings
Overview
We are subject to various claims arising in the ordinary course of business, and are party to various legal proceedings that constitute ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business. The majority of these claims and proceedings relate to commercial, product liability, and warranty matters. In addition, from time to time we are subject to various claims and legal proceedings related to employee compensation, benefits, and benefits administration including, but not limited to, compliance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), and Department of Labor requirements. In our opinion, apart from the actions set forth below, the disposition of these proceedings and claims, after taking into account recorded accruals and the availability and limits of our insurance coverage, will not have a material adverse effect on our business or our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Profit Sharing Disputes
Pursuant to the 1993 Settlement Agreement, the program administrator and named fiduciary of the Supplemental Benefit Program is the Supplemental Benefit Program committee (the "Committee"), composed of individuals not appointed by NI or NIC. In August 2013, the Committee filed a motion for leave to amend its February 2013 complaint (which sought injunctive relief for the Company to provide certain information to which it was allegedly entitled under the Supplemental Benefit Trust Profit Sharing Plan) and a proposed amended complaint (the "Profit Sharing Complaint") in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio (the "Court"). Leave to file the Profit Sharing Complaint was granted by the Court in October 2013. In its Profit Sharing Complaint, the Committee alleged the Company breached the 1993 Settlement Agreement and violated ERISA by failing to properly calculate profit sharing contributions due under the Supplemental Benefit Trust Profit Sharing Plan. The Committee seeks damages in excess of $50 million, injunctive relief and reimbursement of attorneys' fees and costs. Following the resolution of a procedural dispute by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit, in May 2015, the Court ordered that the claims in the Profit Sharing Complaint be arbitrated pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures in the Supplemental Benefit Trust Profit Sharing Plan. In November 2015, the Company and the Committee selected an arbitrator and the discovery process has commenced. On August 1, 2016, the parties submitted briefs on issues related to the scope of the arbitration. On June 29, 2017, the arbitrator ruled, among other things, that the arbitration will include Supplemental Benefit Trust Profit Sharing Plan calculations for the years ending October 31, 2000 through October 31, 2014.
In addition, various local bargaining units of the United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America ("UAW") have filed separate grievances pursuant to the profit sharing plans under various collective bargaining agreements in effect between the Company and the UAW that may have similar legal and factual issues as the Profit Sharing Complaint.
Based on our assessment of the facts underlying the claims in the above actions, we are unable to provide meaningful quantification of how the final resolution of these claims may impact our future consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Retiree Health Care Litigation
On October 21, 2016, two lawsuits were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio relating to postretirement healthcare and life insurance obligations under the 1993 Settlement Agreement. The first lawsuit (the “Committee’s Complaint”) was filed by the Supplemental Benefit Program Committee. 

27




Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
(Unaudited)

The Committee’s Complaint was filed against NIC, NI, NFC and a former affiliate, all of which are parties to the 1993 Settlement Agreement. Since January 1, 2012, the Navistar, Inc. Retiree Health Benefit Trust, created pursuant to the 1993 Settlement Agreement (the “Base Trust”), has received certain Medicare Part D subsidies from the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services that were made available for prescription drug benefits provided to Medicare-eligible seniors pursuant to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 and has also received certain Medicare Part D coverage-gap discounts from prescription drug manufacturers that were made available to eligible seniors pursuant to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (collectively, the “Subsidies”). The Committee alleges, among other things, that the defendants breached the 1993 Settlement Agreement since January 1, 2012 by causing the Base Trust to allocate the Subsidies in a manner that improperly decreased the defendants’ contributions to the Base Trust and increased retiree contributions. The Committee seeks damages, attorneys’ fees and costs for all alleged violations of the 1993 Settlement Agreement, including approximately $26 million which the Committee alleges is the eligible retirees’ “fair share” of the Subsidies that were allegedly misappropriated by the defendants from January, 2012 through April, 2015. 
The second lawsuit was filed by two individual members of the Committee (the “Committee Members”) who are retirees and participants in the Navistar, Inc. Health Benefit and Life Insurance Plan (the “Plan”) created pursuant to the 1993 Settlement Agreement. The Committee Members’ complaint (the “Committee Members’ Complaint”) was filed against NIC, NI, NFC and certain other former or current affiliates, all of which are parties or employers as defined in the 1993 Settlement Agreement. The Committee Members allege, among other things, that the Company violated the terms of the Plan, breached a fiduciary duty under the ERISA, and engaged in ERISA-prohibited transactions by improperly using the Plan’s assets (a portion of the Subsidies) for the Company’s benefit. The Committee Members request that the court order the defendants to restore all losses to the Base Trust, including approximately $26 million, which the Committee Members allege is the Plan participants’ “fair share” of the Subsidies that were allegedly misappropriated by the defendants from January 2012 through April 2015. The Committee Members also request that the court enjoin the defendants from alleged future violations of the Plan and ERISA with respect to treatment of the Subsidies, order the defendants to remedy all alleged ERISA-prohibited transactions and pay the Committee Members’ attorneys’ fees and costs.  
The defendants filed motions to dismiss each respective complaint on January 10, 2017. On May 10, 2017, the court dismissed the Committee's Complaint with prejudice stating that the Committee lacked standing to bring its claims and overruled the defendants' motion to dismiss the Committee Members' Complaint, subject to the parties conducting limited discovery and filing cross-motions for summary judgment on whether the Committee Members' Complaint is barred by the statute of limitations. The parties’ cross-motions for summary judgment are due September 21, 2017.
On April 6, 2017, a motion was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio relating to postretirement healthcare and life insurance obligations under the 1993 Settlement Agreement. The motion was filed by the current "Other Member" of the Health Benefit Program Committee ("HBPC"). The HBPC is provided for in the 1993 Settlement Agreement and the HBPC currently consists of the Other Member, three members appointed by the Company ("Company Members"), and two members appointed by the UAW. NI and the Company Members are named as defendants in the motion. The motion alleges that NI and the Company Members impermissibly interfered with the Other Member's ability to discharge his rights and duties relating to eligibility for Plan benefits for an unknown number of non-represented employees and retirees. He requests the court (a) find that all prior Plan eligibility determinations made by NI and the HBPC are invalid to the extent they were not based on eligibility criteria in a plan which pre-dated the Plan; and (b) find all employees or retirees who were improperly denied Plan benefits based on the application of incorrect eligibility criteria, to retroactively enroll them in the Plan, and to reimburse those retirees for costs they incurred as a result of the prior improper determinations of Plan eligibility. He estimates 1,000 non-represented employees or retirees were wrongfully denied Plan benefits. He also requests the court direct him to oversee NI's compliance with the requested relief order. The defendants filed their response to the motion on May 11, 2017 and the Other Member filed his reply on May 17, 2017.
Based on our assessment of the facts underlying the claims in the above actions, we are unable to provide meaningful quantification of how the final resolution of these claims may impact our future consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
FATMA Notice
International Indústria Automotiva da América do Sul Ltda. ("IIAA"), formerly known as Maxion International Motores S/A ("Maxion"), now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, received a notice in July 2010 from the State of Santa Catarina Environmental Protection Agency ("FATMA") in Brazil. The notice alleged that Maxion sent waste to a facility owned and operated by a company known as Natureza and that soil and groundwater contamination had occurred at the Natureza facility. 


28




Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
(Unaudited)

The notice asserted liability against Maxion and assessed an initial penalty in the amount of R$2 million (the equivalent of approximately less than US$1 million at July 31, 2017), which is not due and final until all administrative appeals are exhausted. Maxion was one of numerous companies that received similar notices. IIAA filed an administrative defense in August 2010 and has not yet received a decision following that filing. IIAA disputes the allegations in the notice and intends to vigorously defend itself. In August 2017, IIAA presented a motion to the District Attorney to set forth its defenses and correct inaccuracies in the notice.  The District Attorney has informed IIAA that it intends to present a Consent Agreement with all of the companies that sent waste to Natureza in September 2017. Currently, no demands or offers are outstanding.
Sao Paulo Groundwater Notice
In March 2014, IIAA, along with other nearby companies, received from the Sao Paulo District Attorney (the "District Attorney") a notice and proposed Consent Agreement relating to alleged neighborhood-wide groundwater contamination at or around its Sao Paulo manufacturing facility. The proposed Consent Agreement sought certain groundwater investigations and other technical relief and proposed sanctions in the amount of R$3 million (the equivalent of approximately US$1 million at July 31, 2017). In November 2014, IIAA extended a settlement offer. The parties remained in discussions and IIAA’s settlement offer was never accepted, rejected or countered by the District Attorney. On August 31, 2016, the District Attorney filed civil actions against IIAA and other companies seeking soil and groundwater investigation and remediation, together with monetary payment in an unspecified amount. IIAA filed its defense to the civil action on January 26, 2017, alleging that IIAA has made all necessary investigations and has taken remedial measures to address the contamination and that Companhia Ambiental do Estado de São Paulo (CETESB), the environmental agency of São Paulo State, has agreed to the remedial measures taken by IIAA. On June 20, 2017, IIAA presented a petition requesting a 90 day suspension of the lawsuit. IIAA has since held and is currently engaged in discussions with the District Attorney regarding settlement of this matter. The District Attorney agreed to the suspension on June 30, 2017. Currently, no demands or offers are outstanding.
MaxxForce Engine EGR Warranty Litigation
On June 24, 2014, N&C Transportation Ltd. filed a putative class action lawsuit against NIC, NI, Navistar Canada Inc., and Harbour International Trucks in Canada in the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the "N&C Action"). Subsequently, seven additional, similar putative class action lawsuits have been filed in Canada (together with the N&C Action, the "Canadian Actions").
From June 13-17, 2016, the court conducted a certification hearing in the N&C Action. On November 16, 2016, the court certified a Canada-wide class comprised of persons who purchased heavy-duty trucks equipped with Advanced EGR MaxxForce 11, MaxxForce 13, and MaxxForce 15 engines designed to meet 2010 EPA regulations. The court in the N&C Action denied certification to persons who operated but did not buy the trucks in question. To date, no appeals have been filed, but the deadline for the Company to appeal the class certification decision has been extended indefinitely, subject to a 15-day notice of termination.
On June 5, 2017, a hearing was held in the Quebec putative class action lawsuit captioned 4037308 Canada Inc. v. Navistar Canada Inc., NI, and NIC. At that hearing, the Court ruled on certain motions regarding evidence related to certification but deferred a ruling on plaintiff’s proposed amendment to narrow the proposed class to Quebec-only purchasers and lessees of model year 2010-13 vehicles containing MaxxForce 11, 13, and 15 liter engines. Preliminary motions not decided at the June 5, 2017 hearing are scheduled to be heard on October 17, 2017. The class authorization hearing in Quebec has not been scheduled, and there are no authorization hearings scheduled in any of the other Canadian Actions at this time.
On July 7, 2014, Par 4 Transport, LLC filed a putative class action lawsuit against NI in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (the "Par 4 Action"). Subsequently, seventeen additional putative class action lawsuits were filed in various United States district courts, including the Northern District of Illinois, the Eastern District of Wisconsin, the Southern District of Florida, the Middle District of Pennsylvania, the Southern District of Texas, the Western District of Kentucky, the District of Minnesota, the Northern District of Alabama, and the District of New Jersey (together with the Par 4 Action, the "U.S. Actions"). Some of the U.S. Actions name both NIC and NI, and allege matters substantially similar to the Canadian Actions. More specifically, the Canadian Actions and the U.S. Actions (collectively, the "EGR Class Actions") seek to certify a class of persons or entities in Canada or the United States who purchased and/or leased a ProStar or other Navistar vehicle equipped with a model year 2008-2013 MaxxForce Advanced EGR engine.
In substance, the EGR Class Actions allege that the MaxxForce Advanced EGR engines are defective and that the Company and NI failed to disclose and correct the alleged defect. The EGR Class Actions assert claims based on theories of contract, breach of warranty, consumer fraud, unfair competition, misrepresentation and negligence. The EGR Class Actions seek relief in the form of monetary damages, punitive damages, declaratory relief, interest, fees, and costs.

On October 3, 2014, NIC and NI filed a motion before the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (the "MDL Panel") seeking to transfer and consolidate before Judge Joan B. Gottschall of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois all of the then-pending U.S. Actions, as well as certain non-class action MaxxForce Advanced EGR engine lawsuits pending in various federal district courts.
On December 17, 2014, Navistar's motion to consolidate the U.S. Actions and certain other non-class action lawsuits was granted. The MDL Panel issued an order consolidating all of the U.S. Actions that were pending on the date of Navistar’s motion before Judge Gottschall in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (the "MDL Action"). The MDL Panel also consolidated into the MDL Action certain non-class action MaxxForce Advanced EGR engine lawsuits pending in the various federal district courts. Non-class federal lawsuits presenting pre-trial issues similar to the MDL Action continue to be transferred to the MDL Action. Approximately twenty such actions are currently pending.
At the request of the various law firms representing the plaintiffs in the MDL Action, on March 5, 2015, Judge Gottschall entered an order in the MDL Action appointing interim lead counsel and interim liaison counsel for the plaintiffs. On May 11, 2015, lead counsel for the plaintiffs filed a First Master Consolidated Class Action Complaint ("Consolidated Complaint"). The parties to the MDL Action exchanged initial disclosures on May 29, 2015. The Company answered the Consolidated Complaint on July 13, 2015. On September 22, 2016, lead counsel for the plaintiffs filed a First Amended Consolidated Class Action Complaint (the “Amended Consolidated Complaint”). The Amended Consolidated Complaint added twenty-five additional named plaintiffs. NI and NIC answered the Amended Consolidated Complaint on October 20, 2016.
On May 27, 2016, Judge Gottschall entered a Case Management Order setting a July 13, 2017 date for plaintiffs' class certification motion. On November 30, 2016, the court entered an order referring discovery matters to a magistrate judge for supervision. Pursuant to the magistrate’s order, the parties jointly filed a new proposed case management order on January 25, 2017, which extends the fact discovery deadline to November 22, 2017. On January 31, 2017, the parties filed a joint motion with Judge Gottschall requesting adjustment of the class action briefing schedule to April 24, 2018. On February 2, 2017, Judge Gottschall granted the parties' motion extending the deadline to complete the class certification briefing to April 24, 2018. On February 6, 2017, the magistrate approved the parties' January 25, 2017 proposed case management order extending the deadline for fact discovery to November 22, 2017.
There are also non-class action MaxxForce Advanced EGR engine lawsuits filed against the Company in various state courts. A number of non-class action lawsuits have been resolved in favor of the Company prior to trial or settled for immaterial amounts. Approximately 40 state court non-class actions are pending at this time. One of the non-class action lawsuits ("Milan"), alleging violations of the Tennessee Consumer Protection Act and fraud and involving approximately 235 trucks, was tried in Tennessee state court in August 2017. On August 10, 2017, the Milan jury returned a verdict in the amount of $31 million against the Company, including $20 million in punitive damages. The Company intends to challenge the verdict in the trial court and, if necessary, the appellate court. In the third quarter of 2017, we recorded $31 million of charges in SG&A expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Based on our assessment of the facts underlying the claims in the above actions, we are unable to provide meaningful quantification of how the final resolution of these claims may impact our future consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
EPA Clean Air Act Litigation
In February 2012, NI received a Notice of Violation ("NOV") from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") pertaining to certain heavy-duty diesel engines which, according to the EPA, were not completely assembled by NI until calendar year 2010 and, therefore, were not covered by NI's model year 2009 certificates of conformity. The NOV concluded that NI's introduction into commerce of each of these engines violated the Federal Clean Air Act.
On July 14, 2015, the Department of Justice ("DOJ"), on behalf of the EPA, filed a lawsuit against NIC and NI in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. Similar to the NOV, the lawsuit alleges that NIC and NI introduced into commerce approximately 7,749 heavy-duty diesel engines that were not covered by model year 2009 certificates of conformity because those engines were not completely assembled until calendar year 2010, resulting in violations of the Federal Clean Air Act. On July 16, 2015, the DOJ filed an Amended Complaint clarifying the amount of civil penalties being sought. The lawsuit requests injunctive relief and the assessment of civil penalties of up to $37,500 for each violation. On September 14, 2015, NIC and NI each filed an Answer and Affirmative Defenses to the Amended Complaint. We dispute the allegations in the lawsuit.
Discovery in the matter is proceeding in two phases. Fact discovery for the liability phase commenced on December 9, 2015. Pursuant to the court's Minute Order entered on July 12, 2017, the Phase I liability fact discovery is to be completed by November 9, 2017. The proposed deadline for dispositive motions is set for June 11, 2018. After completion of the liability phase, the court will set further dates for a remedy phase.

On May 13, 2016, the DOJ, on behalf of the EPA filed a motion for summary judgment on liability. On June 30, 2016, NIC and NI opposed the EPA's motion for summary judgment, and NIC cross-moved for summary judgment against EPA. On March 1, 2017, the court entered a Memorandum Opinion and Order (i) granting the DOJ’s motion for summary judgment on the issue of liability with respect to NI, (ii) denying the DOJ’s motion for summary judgment on the issue of liability with respect to NIC, and (iii) denying NIC’s motion for summary judgment.
Based on our assessment of the facts underlying the complaint above, potential charges to the Consolidated Statement of Operations and cash outlays in future periods could range from $2 million to $291 million related to the resolution of this matter. Other than the aforementioned, we are unable to provide further meaningful quantification of how the final resolution of this matter may impact our future consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Brazil Truck Dealer Disputes
In January 2014, IIAA initiated an arbitration proceeding under the International Chamber of Commerce rules seeking payment for goods sold and unpaid, in the amount of R$64 million (approximately US$20 million as of July 31, 2017), including penalties and interest, from a group of affiliated truck dealers in Brazil. The truck dealers are affiliated with each other, but not with us, and are collectively referred to as Navitrucks. In the proceeding, IIAA also seeks a declaration of fault against Navitrucks related to the termination of the truck dealer agreements between IIAA and Navitrucks. Navitrucks responded in part by submitting counterclaims against IIAA seeking the amount of R$128 million (approximately US$41 million as of July 31, 2017) for damages related to alleged unfulfilled promises and injury to Navitrucks’ reputation. In October 2014, Navitrucks amended their counterclaims by increasing the amount of damages. During a preliminary hearing before the arbitral tribunal on March 24, 2015, the parties agreed to submit all of the pending claims between the parties to the exclusive jurisdiction of the arbitral tribunal. Pursuant to the timetable issued in the arbitration proceeding, IIAA presented its complaint in July 2015, Navitrucks filed its answer and counterclaims on August 24, 2015, and IIAA filed its rebuttal and answer to Navitrucks’ counterclaims on October 22, 2015. On December 7, 2015, Navitrucks filed its rebuttal to IIAA’s answer to counterclaims. On June 13-15, 2016, the arbitral tribunal held hearings on the parties presenting witnesses and evidence.
On July 18, 2016, IIAA and Navitrucks presented additional documents and information related to the hearing held on June 13-15, 2016. On September 30, 2016, the parties presented their final allegations. On April 20, 2017, the arbitral tribunal issued a partial award (the "Initial Award") granting a portion of the relief sought by each of the parties. Specifically, the arbitral tribunal's Initial Award held that: (a) Navitrucks failed to pay certain amounts to IIAA for the purchase of vehicles under its agreements with IIAA, thereby breaching its contractual obligations; and (b) IIAA breached its contractual obligations under its agreements with Navitrucks due to its failure to fulfill its promises to invest in products, infrastructure, and a dealership network. Furthermore, the arbitral tribunal held that, due to the mutual breach of the agreements between IIAA and Navitrucks, the agreements should be deemed terminated.
On June 3, 2017, IIAA and Navitrucks filed an application to clarify certain interpretations of the Initial Award and to correct clerical errors in the Initial Award. IIAA also requested an award to (a) set the undisputable amount of the Initial Award, and (2) order Navitrucks to promptly pay such amount. On June 8, 2017, the arbitral tribunal invited IIAA and Navitrucks to present their respective comments on each other’s applications on or before June 27, 2017. On June 27, 2017, IIAA and Navitrucks filed their respective comments. The arbitral tribunal is expected to render its decision in September 2017. After the decision is rendered, the calculation phase of the arbitration will begin and is estimated to be one year or longer in duration. In the damages calculation phase, the actual monetary amount of the damages owed from one party to the other will be definitively determined.
Based on our assessment of the facts underlying the claims in the above actions, we are unable to provide meaningful quantification of how the final resolution of these claims may impact our future consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
In addition, two other truck dealers and two truck fleet owners in Brazil have separate adversarial proceedings pending against IIAA that may have similar legal and factual issues as the Navitrucks claim. These other claims are not material either individually or in the aggregate.
Other
U.S. Department of Defense Matter
In the third quarter of 2016, Navistar Defense, LLC ("ND") received a subpoena from the United States Department of Defense Inspector General (the "DOD IG"). The subpoena requested documents relating to ND's sale of its independent suspension systems ("ISS") for military vehicles to the government for the period from January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2010. On June 3, 2016, ND met with government representatives, including representatives from the DOD IG and the United States Department of Justice ("DOJ"), to discuss the matter.

(Unaudited)

Since then, ND has been in ongoing discussions with the DOD IG and the DOJ. ND made submissions of documents responsive to the subpoena in June and August 2016 and has substantially completed its subpoena response. On May 1, 2017, ND met with government representatives, including representatives from the DOD IG and the DOJ, to further discuss the matter, including assertions that ND may have overcharged the United States for the ISS components. ND agreed to provide additional information relating to the pricing of the ISS components. The parties met again on June 13, 2017. In August 2017, ND received a letter from the DOJ claiming that ND made false and misleading statements during the course of price negotiations and during the Defense Contract Auditing Agency audit which resulted in ND overcharging the United States for the ISS components by approximately $88 million and asking for treble damages and penalties for a total demand of approximately $264 million. ND has responded to the DOJ’s demand letter explaining its position that it has no liability in this matter and outlining the bases for such position, and that ND intends to vigorously defend its position. At this time, we are unable to predict the outcome of this matter or provide meaningful quantification of how the final resolution of this matter may impact our future consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
11. Segment Reporting
The following is a description of our four reporting segments:
Our Truck segment manufactures and distributes Class 4 through 8 trucks, buses, and military vehicles under the International and IC Bus ("IC") brands, and produces engines under our proprietary brand name and parts required to support the military truck lines. This segment sells its products in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico markets, as well as through our export truck business. In an effort to strengthen and maintain our dealer network, this segment occasionally acquires and operates dealer locations for the purpose of transitioning ownership.
Our Parts segment provides customers with proprietary products needed to support the International commercial truck, IC Bus, proprietary engine lines, and export parts business, as well as our other product lines. Our Parts segment also provides a wide selection of other standard truck, trailer, and engine aftermarket parts. Also included in the Parts segment are the operating results of BDP, which manages the sourcing, merchandising, and distribution of certain service parts we sell to Ford in North America.
Our Global Operations segment primarily consists of Brazil engine operations which produce diesel engines under contract manufacturing arrangements, as well as under the MWM brand, for sale to OEMs in South America. In addition, our Global Operations segment includes the operating results of our joint venture in China with Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Co ("JAC").
Our Financial Services segment provides retail, wholesale, and lease financing of products sold by the Truck and Parts segments and their dealers within the U.S. and Mexico, as well as financing for wholesale accounts and selected retail accounts receivable. This segment also facilitates financing relationships in other countries to support our Manufacturing Operations.
Corporate contains those items that are not included in our four segments.
Segment Profit (Loss)
We define segment profit (loss) as net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to NIC, excluding income tax benefit (expense). Selected financial information from our Consolidated Statements of Operations and our Consolidated Balance Sheets is as follows:

The conversion rate on our 4.5% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2018 (the "2018 Convertible Notes") is 17.1233 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2018 Convertible Notes, equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $58.40 per share of common stock. The 2018 Convertible Notes have an anti-dilutive effect when calculating diluted earnings per share when our average stock price is less than $58.40.
The conversion rate on our 4.75% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2019 (the “2019 Convertible Notes”) is 18.4946 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Convertible Notes, equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $54.07 per share of common stock. The 2019 Convertible Notes have an anti-dilutive effect when calculating diluted earnings per share when our average stock price is less than $54.07.
The computation of diluted earnings per share also excludes outstanding options and other common stock equivalents in periods where inclusion of such potential common stock instruments would be anti-dilutive.
For the three months ended July 31, 2016, no dilutive securities were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they would have been anti-dilutive due to the net loss attributable to NIC. Additionally, certain securities have been excluded from the computation of earnings per share, as our average stock price during the period was less than their respective exercise prices. For the three months ended July 31, 2016, the aggregate shares not included were 15.2 million.
For the three months ended July 31, 2017, certain securities have been excluded from the computation of earnings per share, as our average stock price during the period was less than their respective exercise prices. For the three months ended July 31, 2017, the aggregate shares not included were 14.6 million.
In February 2017, we consummated our previously announced strategic alliance with Volkswagen Truck & Bus ("VW T&B"), which included an equity investment in the Company by VW T&B pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), a License and Supply Framework Agreement and a Procurement JV Framework Agreement.

Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, on February 28, 2017 we issued and VW T&B purchased 16.2 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $256 million at $15.76 per share (a 19.9% stake (16.6% on a fully-diluted basis)) in the Company, excluding stock issuance costs.
For both the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, no dilutive securities were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they would have been anti-dilutive due to the net loss attributable to NIC. Additionally, certain securities have been excluded from the computation of earnings per share, as our average stock price during the period was less than their respective exercise prices. For the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, the aggregate shares not included were 14.7 million and 15 million, respectively.
For both the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, the aggregate shares not included in the computation of earnings per share were primarily comprised of 3.4 million shares related to the 2018 Convertible Notes and 7.6 million shares related to the 2019 Convertible Notes.
14. Condensed Consolidating Guarantor and Non-guarantor Financial Information
The following tables set forth condensed consolidating balance sheets as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, and condensed consolidating statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, and condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016.
The information is presented as a result of NI’s guarantee, exclusive of its subsidiaries, of NIC’s indebtedness under our Senior Notes, and obligations under our Loan Agreement related to the 6.5% Tax Exempt Bonds, due 2040. NI is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of NIC. None of NIC’s other subsidiaries guarantee any of these notes or bonds. The guarantees are "full and unconditional," as those terms are used in Regulation S-X Rule 3-10, except that the guarantees will be automatically released in certain customary circumstances, such as when the subsidiary is sold or all of the assets of the subsidiary are sold, the capital stock is sold, when the subsidiary is designated as an "unrestricted subsidiary" for purposes of the respective indentures for each of the Senior Notes, and the 6.5% Tax Exempt Bonds, due 2040, upon liquidation or dissolution of the subsidiary or upon legal or covenant defeasance, or satisfaction and discharge of the notes or bonds. Separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning NI have not been presented because management believes that such information is not material to investors. Within this disclosure only, "NIC" includes the financial results of the parent company only, with all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries accounted for under the equity method. Likewise, "NI," for purposes of this disclosure only, includes the consolidated financial results of its wholly-owned subsidiaries accounted for under the equity method and its operating units accounted for on a consolidated basis. "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries" includes the combined financial results of all other non-guarantor subsidiaries. "Eliminations and Other" includes all eliminations and reclassifications to reconcile to the consolidated financial statements. NIC files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return that includes NI and its U.S. subsidiaries. NI has a tax allocation agreement ("Tax Agreement") with NIC which requires NI to compute its separate federal income tax liability and remit any resulting tax liability to NIC. Tax benefits that may arise from net operating losses of NI are not refunded to Navistar, Inc. but may be used to offset future required tax payments under the Tax Agreement. The effect of the Tax Agreement is to allow NIC, the parent company, rather than NI, to utilize current U.S. taxable losses of NI and all other direct or indirect domestic subsidiaries of NIC.

Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is designed to provide information that is supplemental to, and should be read together with, our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2016. Information in MD&A is intended to assist the reader in obtaining an understanding of (i) our consolidated financial statements, (ii) the changes in certain key items within those financial statements from year-to-year, (iii) the primary factors that contributed to those changes, (iv) any changes in known trends or uncertainties from items disclosed within the MD&A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2016 that we are aware of and that may have a material effect on our future performance, and (v) how certain accounting principles affect our consolidated financial statements. In addition, MD&A provides information about our business segments and how the results of those segments impact our results of operations and financial condition as a whole. Operating results for interim reporting periods are not necessarily indicative of annual operating results.
Executive Overview
Navistar is an international manufacturer of International® brand commercial and military trucks, proprietary brand diesel engines, and IC BusTM ("IC") brand school and commercial buses, as well as a provider of service parts for trucks and diesel engines. Our core business is conducted in the North American truck and parts markets, where we principally participate in the U.S. and Canada school bus and Class 6 through 8 medium and heavy truck markets (our "Core" markets). We also provide retail, wholesale, and lease financing services for our trucks and parts.
Third Quarter Summary
During the third quarter of 2017, we continued to take actions that we believe will improve our performance. The focus of our strategy includes: growing business in our Core markets, seeking new sources of revenue, driving operational excellence, leveraging the VW T&B alliance, investing in our people, and improving our financial performance. We believe our strategy will enable us to improve sales and market share by offering more value to our customers.
In January 2017, we issued an additional $250 million aggregate principal amount of our 8.25% Senior Notes due in 2022 ("Senior Notes"). The proceeds from the January 2017 issuance of additional Senior Notes are being used for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures.

In February 2017, we amended the Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Facility ("Term Loan") to reprice our remaining $1.0 billion loan and insert provisions regarding European Union bail-in legislation. The amendment reduces the interest rate applicable to the outstanding loan by 1.50%.
In February 2017, we consummated our previously announced strategic alliance with VW T&B, which included an equity investment in the Company by VW T&B pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), a License and Supply Framework Agreement and a Procurement JV Framework Agreement. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, we issued and VW T&B purchased 16.2 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $256 million at $15.76 per share (a 19.9% stake (16.6% on a fully-diluted basis)) in the Company.
We remain committed to product investment to increase customer value and to focus on our Core markets. In February 2017, we launched our new International® A26™ diesel engine. The A26™ is an all-new 12.4L engine design which we believe offers improved fuel economy and will deliver the uptime that our customers demand. In April 2017, we launched the International® RH™ Series, our new Class 8 regional haul tractor powered by the new International® A26™ engine. The RH™ Series is designed to deliver further improvements in uptime and productivity for the driver. We continue to realize our plan to release a new or redesigned product every six months through 2018. In July 2017, we fulfilled customer shipments of our first on-highway vehicles powered by the International® A26™ diesel engine.
We continue to seek new sources of revenue. In March 2017, we announced that Navistar Defense, LLC, was awarded two foreign military contracts by the U.S. Army Contracting Command. The first is to produce and support MaxxPro® Dash DXM™ Mine Resistant Ambush Protected ("MRAP") vehicles for Pakistan. The second is to reset, upgrade and support MaxxPro® MRAP Excess Defense Article vehicles for the United Arab Emirates ("U.A.E."). The majority of the work will take place at our West Point, Mississippi assembly plant. Delivery is planned to be completed for Pakistan in calendar year 2017 and for U.A.E. in calendar year 2018. In July 2017, we made our OnCommand® Connection Telematics solution available for purchase. It offers truck and bus drivers and fleets a comprehensive, one-price solution that can help cut the cost of vehicle maintenance, while managing federal and state compliance needs.
We continue to drive operational excellence by focusing on business in our Core markets. During the second quarter of 2017, we implemented a shift in market mix for our used trucks to include an increase in volume to certain export markets, which have a lower price point as compared to sales through our domestic channels, and lower domestic pricing to enable higher sales velocity. We have realized favorable impacts during the third quarter of 2017 as a result of the shift in market mix. We continue to seek alternative channels to sell our used trucks. In May 2017, we completed the sale of a business line included in our Parts segment. In July 2017, we committed to a plan to cease engine production at our plant in Melrose Park, Illinois (“Melrose Park Facility”) in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. During August 2017, we also sold our fabrication business in Conway, Arkansas.
Financial Summary
Continuing Operations Results — In the third quarter of 2017, our consolidated net sales and revenues were $2.2 billion, a 6% increase compared to the prior year quarter. The increase primarily reflects higher volumes from our Truck segment.
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, we earned income from continuing operations before income taxes of $41 million and a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $78 million, respectively, compared to a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $14 million in both of the respective prior year periods. Our gross margin increased by $81 million and $43 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, respectively, primarily due to higher volumes, a decrease in used truck losses, improved material costs in our Core markets, lower restructuring charges, and a decrease in adjustments to pre-existing warranties. In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Truck segment recorded charges to our used truck reserve of $14 million and $102 million compared to charges of $40 million and $124 million in the respective prior year periods. In the third quarter of 2017, we recorded a charge for adjustments to pre-existing warranties of $6 million compared to $19 million in the comparable prior year period. In the first nine months of 2017, we recorded a net benefit for adjustments to pre-existing warranties of $4 million compared to a charge of $70 million in the comparable prior year period.
In the third quarter of 2017, consolidated net income attributable to Navistar International Corporation ("NIC"), before manufacturing interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses (“EBITDA”) was $160 million compared to $96 million in the comparable prior year period. Excluding certain net impacts, adjusted EBITDA ("Adjusted EBITDA") in the third quarter of 2017 was $194 million compared to $132 million in the comparable prior year period. In the first nine months of 2017, EBITDA was $270 million compared to $313 million in the comparable prior year period. Excluding certain net impacts, Adjusted EBITDA in the first nine months of 2017 was $314 million compared to $396 million in the comparable prior year period. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor are they presented as alternatives to U.S. GAAP measures. For more information regarding this non-GAAP financial information, see Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, we recognized income tax expense of zero and $10 million, compared to $14 million and $25 million in the respective prior year periods. Income tax expense for both periods is impacted by geographical mix and certain discrete items. The change in income tax expense is primarily driven by a $35 million intraperiod allocation benefit in domestic continuing operations due to certain post retirement plan remeasurements, offset by an increase in foreign taxes in Canada and Mexico. The first nine months of 2017 were also partially offset by a $13 million benefit from the release of the valuation allowance on U.S. alternative minimum tax ("AMT") credits due to the U.S. enactment of the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015 recorded in the first quarter of 2016.
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, after income taxes, we had net income from continuing operations attributable to NIC of $36 million or $0.37 per diluted share for continuing operations, and a net loss from continuing operations attributable to NIC of $106 million, or $1.16 per diluted share for continuing operations, compared to net loss of $34 million and $63 million, or $0.42 and $0.77 per diluted share for continuing operations, in the respective prior year periods.
We ended the third quarter of 2017 with $973 million of consolidated cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, compared to $850 million as of October 31, 2016. The increase in consolidated cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities was primarily attributable to the issuance of $250 million of long-term debt, the receipt of $256 million in proceeds from the equity issuance to VW T&B and lower payments for accounts payable, partially offset by an increase in finance receivables, inventories and other current and noncurrent assets as well as decreases in other current and noncurrent liabilities, and payments for capital expenditures and purchases of equipment leased to others.

In the third quarter of 2017, our Truck segment net sales increased by $136 million, or 10%. The increase is primarily due to higher volumes in our Core markets, an increase in sales of General Motors ("GM")-branded units manufactured for GM, and an increase in Mexico truck volumes. Chargeouts from our Core markets in the third quarter of 2017 increased by 15% compared to the prior year quarter. In the first nine months of 2017, our Truck segment net sales decreased by $51 million, or 1%. The decrease is primarily due to lower overall volumes in our Core markets during the first half of the year, the impact of a shift in product mix in our Core markets, the cessation of sales of CAT-branded units sold to Caterpillar, and the sale of Pure Power Technologies ("PPT") in the second quarter of 2016, partially offset by an increase in Mexico truck volumes, and the commencement of sales of GM-branded units manufactured for GM. Chargeouts from our Core markets during the first nine months of 2017 were down 1% compared to the prior year period.
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Parts segment sales decreased by $11 million and $48 million, respectively, or 2% primarily due to lower BDP sales and lower North America volumes, partially offset by higher U.S. and Canada parts sales related to Fleetrite™ brand and remanufactured parts sales.
In the third quarter of 2017, our Global Operations segment net sales were comparable to the prior year while in the first nine months of 2017, net sales decreased by $50 million, or 20% compared to the prior year period. The decrease in the first nine months of 2017 was driven by lower engine and component volumes in our South America engine operations which declined 45% compared to the prior year period due to the impact of continued economic weakness in the Brazilian economy as well as the cessation of sales to an OEM customer in 2016. The decrease in volume was partially offset by the appreciation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar as the average conversion rate has strengthened by 13% compared with the prior year period.
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Financial Services segment net revenues increased by $2 million and decreased by $5 million, respectively, reflecting a 3% change compared to the applicable prior year periods. The increase in the third quarter is driven by higher interest rates primarily in our Mexican portfolio. The decrease in the first nine months of 2017 is primarily driven by a decrease in overall finance receivables and unfavorable movements in foreign currency exchange rates impacting our Mexican portfolio, partially offset by higher interest rates.
Costs of products sold
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, Costs of products sold increased by $46 million and decreased by $119 million, respectively. The increase in the third quarter was primarily driven by the impact of higher volumes in our Core markets during the third quarter, Mexico truck volumes, market pressures, and $10 million of inventory reserves related to our plan to cease production at our Melrose Park Facility, partially offset by a decrease in used truck losses, improved material costs, and lower adjustments to pre-existing warranties. The decline in the first nine months of 2017 were primarily the result of lower volumes in our Core markets during the first half of the year.
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, we recorded a charge to our used truck reserve of $14 million and $102 million compared to charges of $40 million and $124 million in the respective prior year periods. During the second quarter of 2017, we implemented a shift in market mix to include an increase in volume to certain export markets, which have a lower price point as compared to sales through our domestic channels, and lower domestic pricing to enable higher sales velocity. We have realized favorable impacts during the third quarter of 2017 as a result of the shift in market mix. We continue to seek alternative channels to sell our used trucks.
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, we recorded a charge for adjustments to pre-existing warranties of $6 million and a benefit of $4 million, respectively, compared to charges of $19 million and $70 million in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2016, respectively. The decline in charges is primarily due to the reduction in claim frequency across both the Medium Duty and Big Bore engine families in our Truck segment. The impact decreased the reserve for our standard warranty obligations.
Restructuring Charges
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Restructuring charges decreased by $18 million and $15 million, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to postretirement net benefits of $43 million related to the execution of the closure agreement for our Chatham, Ontario plant, partially offset by postretirement and severance charges of $31 million related to our plan to cease production at our Melrose Park Facility. For more information, see Note 2, Restructuring and Impairments, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our SG&A expenses increased by $36 million and $50 million, respectively, primarily due to the impact of charges related to the MaxxForce engine EGR product litigation recorded during the third quarter of 2017. For more information on our legal proceedings, see Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

48





Interest expense
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Interest expense increased by $7 million and $16 million, respectively. The increase is primarily driven by the January 2017 issuance of additional Senior Notes, increased amortization of debt issuance costs, and an increase in average borrowing rates, partially offset by the impact of the lower interest rate related to the February 2017 refinancing of our Term Loan and lower average borrowing levels for finance receivables funding.
Other income, net
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Other income decreased by $7 million and $55 million, respectively. The decline is due to a $15 million one-time fee received from a third party in the first quarter of 2016, deferred income for an IP license of $19 million in the second quarter of 2016, IP license income of $13 million in the third quarter of 2016 and unfavorable movements in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by the sale of a business line and machinery and equipment.
Income tax expense
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Income tax expense decreased by $14 million and $15 million, respectively. The change in income tax expense is primarily driven by a $35 million intraperiod allocation benefit in domestic continuing operations due to certain post retirement plan remeasurements, partially offset by an increase in foreign taxes in Canada and Mexico. The first nine months of 2017 were also offset by a $13 million benefit from the release of the valuation allowance on U.S. AMT credits due to the U.S. enactment of the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015 recorded in the first quarter of 2016.
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests is the result of our consolidation of subsidiaries that we do not wholly own. Substantially all of our net income attributable to non-controlling interests in 2017 and 2016 relates to Ford's non-controlling interest in BDP.
Segment Results of Operations
We define segment profit (loss) as net income (loss) attributable to NIC excluding income tax benefit (expense). The following sections analyze operating results as they relate to our four segments and do not include intersegment eliminations.

The increase is primarily due to higher volumes in our Core markets, an increase in sales of GM-branded units manufactured for GM, and an increase in Mexico truck volumes. Chargeouts from our Core markets increased by 15% during the third quarter, which is reflective of an improvement in Class 8 industry volumes during this period. The improvement in segment net sales reflects a 16% increase in Class 8 severe service trucks, an 11% increase in Class 8 heavy trucks and a 37% increase in medium trucks. Chargeouts in school buses were comparable to the prior year.
In the first nine months of 2017, our Truck segment net sales decreased by $51 million, or 1%. The decrease is primarily due to lower overall volumes in our Core markets during the first half of the year, the impact of a shift in product mix in our Core markets, the cessation of sales of CAT-branded units sold to Caterpillar, the decline in sales due to the sale of PPT in the second quarter of 2016, partially offset by an increase in Mexico truck volumes, and an increase in sales of GM-branded units manufactured for GM. Chargeouts from our Core markets were up 1%, which is reflective of lower Class 8 industry volumes experienced during the first half of the year. The increase reflects a 15% increase in medium trucks, a 7% increase in severe service trucks, partially offset by a 16% decrease in Class 8 heavy trucks, and a 1% decrease in school buses.

Segment results
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Truck segment results improved by $61 million and $10 million, or 113% and 8%, respectively. The improvement in our segment results was primarily driven by the impact of higher volumes in our Core markets and Mexico, a decrease in used truck losses, improved material costs, lower adjustments to pre-existing warranties and lower restructuring charges, partially offset by market pressures, charges related to the MaxxForce engine EGR product litigation, and a decrease in Other Income. The first nine months of 2017 were adversely impacted by lower volumes in our Core markets during the first half of the year.
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, we recorded a charge in our Truck segment for our used truck reserve of $14 million and $102 million compared to charges of $40 million and $124 million in the respective prior year periods. During the second quarter of 2017, we implemented a shift in market mix to include an increase in volume to certain export markets, which have a lower price point as compared to sales through our domestic channels, and lower domestic pricing to enable higher sales velocity.
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, we recorded a charge in our Truck segment for adjustments to pre-existing warranties of $6 million and $5 million compared to charges of $19 million and $70 million in the respective prior year periods. The decline in charges is primarily due to the reduction in claim frequency across both the Medium Duty and Big Bore engine families in our Truck segment. The impact decreased the reserve for our standard warranty obligations.
Additionally, the decline in Other Income during the third quarter and first nine months of 2017 is due to a one-time $15 million fee received from a third party in the first quarter of 2016, deferred income for an IP license of $19 million in the second quarter of 2016, and $13 million of IP license income in the third quarter of 2016 which were recognized in Other income, net.

Segment sales
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Parts segment sales decreased by $11 million and $48 million, respectively, primarily due to lower BDP sales and lower North America volumes, partially offset by higher U.S. and Canada parts sales related to Fleetrite™ brand and remanufactured parts sales.
Segment profit
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Parts segment profit increased by $5 million and decreased by $19 million, or 3% and 4%, respectively, compared to the applicable prior year period. The third quarter and first nine months of 2017 were primarily impacted by margin declines in BDP and our U.S. market, which were offset by higher other income of $6 million related to the sale of a business line and lower intercompany access fees. The decrease in the first nine months of 2017 was primarily the result of margin declines in BDP and North America markets in the first half of the year. Access fees are allocated to our Parts segment from our Truck segment, primarily for development of new products, and consist of certain engineering and product development costs, depreciation expense, and SG&A expenses. The lower fees are due to cost-reduction initiatives in the Truck segment, including significant decreases in engineering and product development costs in recent years.

Segment sales
In the third quarter of 2017, our Global Operations segment net sales were comparable to the prior year while in the first nine months of 2017, net sales decreased by $50 million, or 20%. The decrease in the first nine months of 2017 was driven by lower engine and component volumes in our South America engine operations, which declined 45% due to the impact of continued weakness in the Brazilian economy as well as the cessation of sales to an OEM customer in 2016. The decrease in volume was partially offset by the appreciation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar as the average conversion rate has strengthened by 13% compared with the prior year period.
Segment results
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Global Operations segment results improved by $8 million and $11 million, or 160% and 58%, respectively, primarily due to lower manufacturing and SG&A expenses as a result of our prior year restructuring and cost reduction efforts and higher other income of $6 million related to the sale of machinery and equipment. In the first nine months of 2017, our Global Operations segment loss improvement was also attributable to a one-time benefit of $9 million recognized as an adjustment to pre-existing warranties.

Segment revenues
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Financial Services segment net revenues increased by $2 million and decreased by $5 million, respectively, representing a 3% change compared to the applicable prior period. The increase in the third quarter is driven by higher interest rates primarily in our Mexican portfolio. The decrease in the first nine months of 2017 is primarily driven by a decrease in overall finance receivables and unfavorable movements in foreign currency exchange rates impacting our Mexican portfolio, partially offset by higher interest rates.
Segment profit
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, our Financial Services segment profit decreased by $3 million and $26 million, or 12% and 34%, respectively, primarily driven by lower interest margin resulting from an increase in our average borrowing rate and the pay down of certain intercompany loan receivables. The decline in the third quarter was partially offset by a decrease in the provision for loan losses in Mexico.

Truck Orders, net
We define orders as written commitments received from customers and dealers during the year to purchase trucks. Net orders represent new orders received during the year less cancellations of orders made during the same year. Orders do not represent guarantees of purchases by customers or dealers and are subject to cancellation. Orders may be either sold orders, which will be built for specific customers, or stock orders, which will generally be built for dealer inventory for eventual sale to customers. These orders may be placed at our assembly plants in the U.S. and Mexico for destinations anywhere in the world and include trucks and buses. Historically, we have had an increase in net orders for stock inventory from our dealers at the end of the year due to a combination of demand and, from time to time, incentives to the dealers. Increases in stock orders typically translate to higher future chargeouts. The following table summarizes our approximate net orders for Core units:

Truck Backlogs
We define order backlogs ("backlogs") as orders yet to be built as of the end of the period. Our backlogs do not represent guarantees of purchases by customers or dealers and are subject to cancellation. Although backlogs are one of many indicators of market demand, other factors such as changes in production rates, internal and supplier available capacity, new product introductions, and competitive pricing actions may affect point-in-time comparisons. Backlogs exclude units in inventory awaiting additional modifications or delivery to the end customer. The following table summarizes our approximate backlog for Core units:

Manufacturing and Financial Services cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities
Manufacturing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, and Financial Services cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are not presented in accordance with, and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP. This non-GAAP financial information should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. However, we believe that non-GAAP reporting provides meaningful information and therefore we use it to supplement our GAAP reporting by identifying items that may not be related to the core manufacturing business. We provide this information for an additional analysis of our ability to meet our operating requirements, capital expenditures, equity investments, and financial obligations. Manufacturing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities represent our consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, which excludes cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of our Financial Services operations. We include marketable securities with our cash and cash equivalents when assessing our liquidity position as our investments are highly liquid in nature.
Consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $973 million at July 31, 2017, which includes an immaterial amount of cash and cash equivalents primarily attributable to BDP that is generally not available to satisfy our obligations. For additional information on the consolidation of BDP, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Cash Requirements
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by operating activities, including cash flow from the sale of trucks, buses, diesel engines, and parts, as well as from product financing provided to our dealers and retail customers by our Financial Services operations. It is our opinion that, in the absence of significant extraordinary cash demands, our: (i) level of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, (ii) current and forecasted cash flow from our Manufacturing operations and Financial Services operations, (iii) availability under various funding facilities, (iv) current and forecasted availability from various funding alliances, and (v) access to capital in the capital markets, will provide sufficient funds to meet operating requirements, capital expenditures, investments, and financial obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis. Future Manufacturing operations debt obligations are expected to be met through a combination of cash generation from operations and refinancing activities. We also believe the quality of our underlying portfolio of receivables will ensure the ongoing funding from various sources and alliance partners and will permit our Financial Services operations to meet the financing requirements of Navistar, our dealers, and retail customers.
We have generally financed our Manufacturing operations with cash, funding from our Financial Services operations, equity, and access to the capital markets. The covenants in all of our debt agreements permit us to refinance existing debt instruments as they mature.
Our Manufacturing operations sold $5.2 billion of wholesale notes and accounts receivable to our Financial Services operations during the nine months ended July 31, 2017. The total outstanding balance of wholesale notes and accounts receivable purchased was $1.4 billion as of July 31, 2017. Our Financial Services operations also make loans and provide dividends and return of capital to our Manufacturing operations. Total loans outstanding from our Financial Services operations to our Manufacturing operations were $116 million at July 31, 2017.

54





Included in loans made from Financial Services to Manufacturing operations is an intercompany financing from NFC that is secured by a first priority lien on used truck inventory, and certain related assets, (the "Intercompany Used Truck Loan"). During the nine months ended July 31, 2017, we decreased our borrowings under the Intercompany Used Truck Loan by $82 million to $53 million. Our Manufacturing operations also have an intercompany revolving loan agreement (the "Intercompany Revolving Loan") with our captive insurance company under our Financial Services segment. During the nine months ended July 31, 2017, our borrowings under the Intercompany Revolving Loan agreement decreased by $11 million to $7 million. Our Financial Services operations in Mexico extends working capital loans to our Manufacturing operations in Mexico for orders received. During the nine months ended July 31, 2017, the borrowings of our Manufacturing operations in Mexico under these loan agreements increased by $6 million to $56 million.
Our Financial Services operations have traditionally relied upon secured borrowings on finance receivables, short and long-term bank borrowings, medium and long-term debt, and commercial paper in Mexico to fund products sold or leased by Navistar, our dealers, and retail customers. We use a number of special purpose entities ("SPEs") to securitize receivables. Navistar Financial Securities Corporation ("NFSC") finances wholesale notes, International Truck Leasing Corporation finances operating leases and some finance leases, and Truck Retail Accounts Corporation ("TRAC") finances retail accounts. Our Financial Services operations in Mexico provide vehicle financing, leasing and insurance brokerage services to our dealers and retail customers in Mexico.
As of July 31, 2017, the aggregate amount available to fund finance receivables under our Financial Services facilities was $346 million.
In May 2016, NFC amended and extended its 2011 bank credit facility which was originally due in December 2016. The 2016 amendment extended the maturity date to June 2018 and initially reduced the revolving portion of the facility from $500 million to $400 million. In December 2016, and in accordance with the amendment, the revolving portion of the facility was further reduced to a maximum of $275 million, the term loan portion of the facility was paid down to $82 million, and the quarterly principal payments were reduced from $9 million to $2 million. The amendment allows NFC to increase revolving or term loan commitments, subject to obtaining commitments from existing or new lenders to provide additional or increased revolving commitments and/or additional term loans, to permit a maximum total facility size of $700 million after giving effect to any such increase. The borrowings on the revolving portion of the facility totaled $274 million as of July 31, 2017. The balance of the term loan portion of the facility was $78 million as of July 31, 2017.
In November 2016, NFSC extended the maturity date of the variable funding notes ("VFN") facility from May 2017 to November 2017, and the maximum capacity was reduced from $500 million to $450 million. In May 2017, NFSC extended its VFN facility to May 2018, and the maximum capacity was reduced to $425 million. The VFN facility is secured by assets of the wholesale note owner trust.
In December 2016, NFC extended its $100 million TRAC facility from April 2017 to October 2017. In May 2017, NFC extended its TRAC facility to April 2018.
In January 2017, we issued an additional $250 million aggregate principal amount of our Senior Notes. Interest related to the Senior Notes is payable on May 1 and November 1 of each year until the maturity date of November 1, 2021. The proceeds from the January 2017 issuance of additional Senior Notes are being used for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures. For additional information, see Note 6, Debt, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
In February 2017, we consummated our previously announced strategic alliance with VW T&B. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, we issued and VW T&B purchased 16.2 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $256 million at $15.76 per share (a 19.9% stake in the Company (16.6% on a fully diluted basis)). The proceeds are being used for general corporate purposes.
In June 2017, NFSC issued $250 million of two-year investor notes secured by assets of the wholesale note owner trust. Proceeds were used, in part, to replace the $250 million of investor notes that matured in June 2017.
In August 2017, we amended and extended our Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility which was originally due in May 2018. The 2017 amendment extended the maturity date to August 2022, subject to a springing maturity based upon the maturity of our Term Loan and Senior Notes, and reduced the revolving facility from $175 million to a maximum of $125 million. Our borrowing capacity under the amended facility was previously subject to a $35 million liquidity block and is now subject to a $13 million liquidity block, less outstanding standby letters of credit issued under this facility, and is impacted by inventory levels at certain aftermarket parts inventory locations. As of July 31, 2017, we had no borrowings, and we have limited availability to borrow, under the Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility. However, we maintain capacity under our various debt arrangements to incur incremental debt.

We have also entered into negotiations with the holders of a majority of our Recovery Zone Facility Revenue Bonds (“Tax Exempt Bonds”) as well as with the issuers of each of those series of bonds, the Illinois Finance Authority, and the County of Cook, Illinois, to amend various covenants included in the loan agreements relating to the Tax Exempt Bonds. These proposed amendments would become effective, if at all, concurrent with a successful refinancing of our $1.0 billion Term Loan and $1.4 billion Senior Notes and would permit us to issue secured debt up to $1.7 billion as well as revise other various covenants in exchange for a coupon increase from 6.50% to 6.75% and the grant of a second lien on certain collateral securing the Term Loan. The purpose of the amendment and the related refinancing (collectively, the "Proposed Refinancing") would be to lower cash interest, extend manufacturing debt maturity dates, and increase our overall financial flexibility. There can be no assurances that we will be able to conclude the Proposed Refinancing, or any portion thereof, at all or on favorable terms.

_________________________
(A)
Manufacturing operations cash flows and Financial Services operations cash flows are not presented in accordance with, and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP. This non-GAAP financial information should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. However, we believe that non-GAAP reporting provides meaningful information and therefore we use it to supplement our GAAP reporting by identifying items that may not be related to the core manufacturing business. Management often uses this information to assess and measure the performance and liquidity of our operating segments. Our Manufacturing operations, for this purpose, include our Truck segment, Global Operations segment, Parts segment, and Corporate items which include certain eliminations. The reconciling differences between these non-GAAP financial measures and our GAAP consolidated financial statements in Item 1, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, are our Financial Services operations and adjustments required to eliminate certain intercompany transactions between Manufacturing operations and Financial Services operations. Our Financial Services operations cash flows are presented consistent with their treatment in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and may not be consistent with how they would be treated on a stand-alone basis. We have chosen to provide this supplemental information to allow additional analysis, to illustrate the respective cash flows giving effect to the equity basis cash flow shown above, and to provide an additional measure of performance and liquidity.
(B)
Adjustments have been made within Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities and Net cash used in financing activities sections to conform to the nine months ended July 31, 2017 presentation. The reclassification did not impact our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Manufacturing Operations
Manufacturing Operations Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities was $180 million and $316 million in the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The lower use of cash from operating activities in 2017 compared to 2016 was primarily attributable to lower accounts payable and other current liability payments partially offset by a higher net loss, a decrease in the collection of accounts receivable, an increase in inventories, and lower dividends from Financial Services.

56






Cash paid for interest, net of amounts capitalized, was $188 million and $173 million in the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Manufacturing Operations Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $143 million and $42 million in the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The net decrease in cash flow from investing activities in 2017 compared to 2016 was primarily attributable to higher purchases and lower maturities of marketable securities as well as higher payments for capital expenditures and purchases of equipment leased to others and lower proceeds from the sale of non-consolidated affiliates partially offset by higher sales of marketable securities and higher proceeds from the sale of property and equipment.
Manufacturing Operations Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities was $428 million in the nine months ended July 31, 2017 as compared to cash used in financing activities of $32 million in the nine months ended July 31, 2016. The net increase in cash flow from financing activities in 2017 compared to 2016 was primarily attributable to issuing an additional $250 million of our Senior Notes and the proceeds from the equity issuance to VW T&B, partially offset by repayments of loans to our Financial Services operations including funding under the Intercompany Used Truck Loan and other financing programs.
Financial Services Operations
Financial Services Operations and Adjustments to Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities was $12 million compared to cash provided of $302 million in the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities in 2017 was primarily due to an increase in the level of finance receivables funded compared to a decrease in the prior year period, and the decline in segment profit of our Financial Services operations.
Cash paid for interest, net of amounts capitalized, was $53 million and $48 million in the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Financial Services Operations and Adjustments to Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $51 million in the nine months ended July 31, 2017 compared to cash used of $125 million in the comparable prior year period. Changes in restricted cash levels required under our secured borrowings, along with purchases of equipment leased to others, were the primary sources and uses, respectively, of cash from investing activities in 2017 and 2016. The decrease in cash used in investing activities in the current period was primarily due to a decline in purchases of equipment leased to others and a decline in restricted cash investments.
Financial Services Operations and Adjustments to Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities was $40 million compared to cash used of $185 million in the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The net decrease in cash used in financing activities in 2017 was primarily due to the increase in borrowing levels associated with the increase in the level of finance receivables funded compared to decreases in the prior year period, partially offset by an increase in repayments of debt using intercompany loan repayments received from the Manufacturing operations.

Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes certain identified items that we do not consider to be part of our ongoing business, are not in accordance with, and should not be viewed as an alternative to U.S. GAAP. This non-GAAP financial information should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
We believe EBITDA provides meaningful information about the performance of our business and therefore we use it to supplement our U.S. GAAP reporting. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA improves the comparability of year-to-year results, and is representative of our underlying performance. Management uses this information to assess and measure the performance of our operating segments. We have chosen to provide this supplemental information for an additional analysis of our operating results, to illustrate the results of operations giving effect to the non-GAAP adjustments shown in the below reconciliations, and to provide an additional measure of performance.

_____________________
(A)
Adjustments to pre-existing warranties reflect changes in our estimate of warranty costs for products sold in prior periods. Such adjustments typically occur when claims experience deviates from historic and expected trends. Our warranty liability is generally affected by component failure rates, repair costs, and the timing of failures. Future events and circumstances related to these factors could materially change our estimates and require adjustments to our liability. In addition, new product launches require a greater use of judgment in developing estimates until historical experience becomes available.
(B)
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, we recorded $6 million and $13 million, respectively, of asset impairment charges in our Truck segment relating to assets held for the sale of our Conway, Arkansas fabrication business and for certain assets under operating leases. In the third quarter and first nine months of 2016, we recorded $11 million and $16 million, respectively, of asset impairment charges related to certain long lived assets in our Truck segment. In the third quarter of 2016, we recorded $1 million of asset impairment charges related to certain intangible assets in our Global operations segment.
(C)
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, we recorded a benefit of $3 million and charges of $6 million for restructuring in our Truck segment. In the third quarter of 2017, we recorded $41 million of charges related to our plan to cease production at our Melrose Park Facility, a net benefit of $43 million related to the resolution of the closing agreement for our Chatham, Ontario plant, and the release of $1 million in OPEB liabilities in connection with the sale of our fabrication business in Conway, Arkansas. The first nine months of 2017 were also impacted by $7 million of restructuring charges related to the closure of the Chatham, Ontario plant and $2 million of Corporate restructuring charges.
(D)
In the third quarter of 2017, we recognized a charge of $31 million for a jury verdict related to Maxxforce engine EGR product litigation in our Truck segment.
(E)
In the third quarter of 2017, we recognized a gain of $6 million related to the sale of a business line in our Parts segment.
(F)
In the second quarter of 2017, we recorded a charge of $4 million related to third party fees and debt issuance costs associated with the repricing of our Term Loan.
(G)
In the first quarter of 2016, we received a $15 million one-time fee from a third party which was recognized in Other income, net.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
Our pension plans are funded by contributions made from Company assets in accordance with applicable U.S. and Canadian government regulations. The regulatory funding requirements are computed using an actuarially determined funded status, which is determined using assumptions that often differ from assumptions used to measure the funded status for U.S. GAAP. U.S. funding targets are determined by rules promulgated under the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (the "PPA"). The PPA additionally requires underfunded plans to achieve 100% funding over a period of time. From time to time, we have discussions with and receive requests for certain information from the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation ("PBGC"). The PBGC was created by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 to encourage the continuation and maintenance of private-sector defined benefit pension plans, provide timely and uninterrupted payment of pension benefits, and keep pension insurance premiums at a minimum. In July 2012, the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act was signed into law, impacting the minimum funding requirements for pension plans, but not otherwise impacting our accounting for pension benefits. In August 2014, the Highway and Transportation Funding Act of 2014, which included an extension of pension funding interest rate relief, was signed into law. The Bi-Partisan Budget Act of 2015 was signed into law in November of 2015 and provided for further extension of interest rate relief. These legislative measures will reduce our funding requirements over the next five years.
For the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, we contributed $21 million and $67 million, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, we contributed $20 million and $60 million, respectively, to our U.S. and Canadian pension plans (the "Plans") to meet regulatory minimum funding requirements. We currently anticipate

59





additional contributions of approximately $46 million during the remainder of 2017. Future contributions are dependent upon a number of factors, principally the changes in values of plan assets, changes in interest rates, and the impact of any future funding relief. We currently expect that from 2018 through 2020, we will be required to contribute $130 million to $190 million per year to the Plans, depending on asset performance and discount rates.
For more information, see Note 7, Postretirement Benefits, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Other Information
Environmental Matters
We have been named a potentially responsible party ("PRP"), in conjunction with other parties, in a number of cases arising under an environmental protection law, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, popularly known as the "Superfund" law. These cases involve sites that allegedly received wastes from current or former Company locations. Based on information available to us which, in most cases, consists of data related to quantities and characteristics of material generated at current or former Company locations, material allegedly shipped by us to these disposal sites, as well as cost estimates from PRPs and/or federal or state regulatory agencies for the cleanup of these sites, a reasonable estimate is calculated of our share, if any, of the probable costs and accruals are recorded in our consolidated financial statements. These accruals are generally recognized no later than completion of the remedial feasibility study and are not discounted to their present value. We review all accruals on a regular basis and believe that, based on these calculations, our share of the potential additional costs for the cleanup of each site will not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
In addition, other sites formerly owned by us or where we are currently operating have been identified as having soil and groundwater contamination. While investigations and cleanup activities continue at these sites, we believe that we have appropriate accruals to cover costs to complete the cleanup of all sites.
Impact of Environmental Regulation
Government regulation related to climate change is under consideration at the U.S. federal and state levels. Because our products use fossil fuels, they may be impacted indirectly due to regulation, such as a cap and trade program, affecting the cost of fuels. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration ("NHTSA") issued final rules for greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions and fuel economy on September 15, 2011. These began to apply in calendar year 2014 and will be fully implemented in model year 2017. The agencies' stated goals for these rules were to increase the use of currently existing technologies. We are complying with these rules through use of existing technologies and implementation of emerging technologies as they become available. Several of our vehicles were certified early for the 2013 model year and the majority of our remaining vehicles and all engines were certified in 2014. The EPA and NHTSA adopted a final rule on October 25, 2016 with the next phase of federal GHG emission and fuel economy regulations. This rule contains more stringent emissions levels for engines and vehicles and will take effect in model year 2021 and will be implemented in three stages culminating in model year 2027. Canada has issued proposed amendments in March 2017 consistent with EPA and NHTSA phase 2 rules.
In December 2014, California adopted GHG emission rules for heavy duty vehicles equivalent to EPA rules and an optional lower emission standard for NOx in California. California has also stated that it intends to propose in 2017 a heavy duty phase 2 GHG rule largely harmonized with the federal rule. The EPA also issued a final rule in October 2015 that lowered the National Ambient Air Quality Standard for ozone to 70 parts per billion. This rule could lead to future lower emission standards for substances that contribute to ozone, including NOx from vehicles, at the federal and state levels. California has stated its intention to lower NOx standards for California-certified engines and has requested that the EPA lower its standards. In June 2016, several regional air quality management districts in California and other states, as well as the environmental agencies for several states, petitioned the EPA to adopt lower NOx emission standards for on-road heavy duty trucks and engines. The EPA responded to those petitions in December 2016, agreeing that future NOx regulations are appropriate and stating that it would begin work on new on-highway heavy duty NOx rules that could apply in model year 2024. We expect that heavy duty vehicle and engine fuel economy and GHG emissions rules will be under consideration in other global jurisdictions in the future. These standards will require significant investments of capital and will significantly increase costs of development for engines and vehicles, and will require us to incur administrative costs arising from implementation of the standard. Our facilities may be subject to regulation related to climate change and climate change itself may also have some impact on our operations. However, these impacts are currently uncertain and we cannot predict the nature and scope of those impacts.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, we use estimates and make judgments and assumptions about future events that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and the related disclosures. Our assumptions, estimates, and judgments are based on historical experience, current trends, and other factors we believe are relevant at the time we prepare our consolidated financial statements.
Our significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates are consistent with those discussed in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements and the MD&A section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2016. During the nine months ended July 31, 2017, there were no significant changes in our application of our critical accounting policies.
To aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reporting results, we have identified the following accounting policies as our most critical because they require us to make difficult, subjective, and complex judgments:
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Income Taxes
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Contingency Accruals
Inventories
Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
In connection with the preparation of this report, management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of July 31, 2017. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the quarter ended July 31, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation
required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended July 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
