1. Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments, unless otherwise noted) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Oshkosh Corporation for the year ended September 30, 2017. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. “Oshkosh” refers to Oshkosh Corporation not including its subsidiaries and “the Company” refers to Oshkosh Corporation and its subsidiaries.
2. New Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), and the FASB has since issued several amendments to this standard, which clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue. This guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised 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 standard supersedes all existing U.S. GAAP guidance on revenue recognition and is expected to require the use of more judgment and result in additional disclosures. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company plans to adopt the standard on October 1, 2018. The Company has elected to adopt the new revenue recognition standard following the modified retrospective approach, as permitted by the standard. This approach will result in an adjustment to retained earnings for the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard on its adoption date.
The Company has assembled a cross-functional team with representation from all segments that is dedicated to the implementation of this new accounting standard. The team, with the support of a project management office, is focused on executing a multi-phase plan that will culminate with the adoption of the standard. The cross-functional team focused on concluding and documenting key accounting positions during the three months ended December 31, 2017. The Company's Audit Committee has been receiving regular briefings on the implementation team's progress and potential implications related to adoption of the new standard. The internal control and process changes necessary to comply with the requirements of the new standard as well as its financial impact remain under evaluation.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330), Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. ASU 2015-11 is part of the FASB’s initiative to simplify accounting standards. The guidance requires an entity to recognize inventory within the scope of the standard at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The Company adopted ASU 2015-11 on October 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to reflect most leases on their balance sheet as lease liabilities with a corresponding right-of-use asset, while leaving presentation of lease expense in the statement of income largely unchanged. The standard also eliminates the real-estate specific provisions that exist under current U.S. GAAP and modifies the classification criteria and accounting lessors must apply to sales-type and direct financing leases. The Company will be required to adopt ASU 2016-02 as of October 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The standard requires a change in the measurement approach for credit losses on financial assets measured on an amortized cost basis from an incurred loss method to an expected loss method, thereby eliminating the requirement that a credit loss be considered probable to impact the valuation of a financial asset measured on an amortized cost basis. The standard requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and a reasonable and supportable forecast that affects the collectibility of the related financial asset. The Company will be required to adopt ASU 2016-13 as of October 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-13 on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. The standard requires that an entity recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset when the transfer occurs as opposed to when the asset is transferred to an outside party as required under current U.S. GAAP. The standard does not apply to intra-entity transfers of inventory, which will continue to follow current U.S. GAAP. The Company will be required to adopt ASU 2016-16 as of October 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-16 on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The standard simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by eliminating the requirement that an entity compute the implied fair value of goodwill based on the fair values of its assets and liabilities to measure impairment. Instead, goodwill impairment will be measured as the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the carrying value of the reporting unit. The standard also clarifies the treatment of the income tax effect of tax deductible goodwill when measuring goodwill impairment loss. The Company will be required to adopt ASU 2017-04 as of October 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-04 on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715), Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. The standard requires that an entity report the service cost component of net periodic pension and postretirement cost in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The remaining components of net benefit costs are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. The amendment further allows only the service cost component of net periodic pension and postretirement costs to be eligible for capitalization, when applicable. The Company will be required to adopt ASU 2017-07 as of October 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-07 on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The standard more closely aligns hedge accounting with risk management strategies, simplifies the application of hedge accounting, and increases transparency as to the scope and results of hedging programs. The amendments expand and refine hedge accounting for both nonfinancial and financial risk components and align the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 on October 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2017-12 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Finance Receivables: Finance receivables represent sales-type leases resulting from the sale of the Company's products and the purchase of finance receivables from lenders pursuant to customer defaults under program agreements with finance companies. Finance receivables originated by the Company generally include a residual value component. Residual values are determined based on the expectation that the underlying equipment will have a minimum fair market value at the end of the lease term. This residual value accrues to the Company at the end of the lease. The Company uses its experience and knowledge as an original equipment manufacturer and participant in end markets for the related products along with third-party studies to estimate residual values. The Company monitors these values for impairment on a periodic basis and reflects any resulting reductions in value in current earnings.
Delinquency is the primary indicator of credit quality of finance receivables. The Company maintains a general allowance for finance receivables considered doubtful of future collection based upon historical experience. Additional allowances are established based upon the Company’s perception of the quality of the finance receivables, including the length of time the receivables are past due, past experience of collectibility and underlying economic conditions. In circumstances where the Company believes collectibility is no longer reasonably assured, a specific allowance is recorded to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. Finance receivables are written off if management determines that the specific borrower does not have the ability to repay the loan amounts due in full. The terms of the finance agreements generally give the Company the ability to take possession of the underlying collateral. The Company may incur losses in excess of recorded allowances if the financial condition of its customers were to deteriorate or the full amount of any anticipated proceeds from the sale of the collateral supporting its customers’ financial obligations is not realized.
Notes Receivable: Notes receivable include amounts related to refinancing of trade accounts and finance receivables. As of December 31, 2017, approximately 70% of the notes receivable balance outstanding was due from two parties. The Company routinely evaluates the creditworthiness of its customers and establishes reserves where the Company believes collectibility is no longer reasonably assured. Certain notes receivable are collateralized by a security interest in the underlying assets and/or other assets owned by the debtor. The Company may incur losses in excess of recorded allowances if the financial condition of its customers were to deteriorate or the full amount of any anticipated proceeds from the sale of the collateral supporting its customers' financial obligations is not realized.
Quality of Finance and Notes Receivable: The Company does not accrue interest income on finance and notes receivable in circumstances where the Company believes collectibility is no longer reasonably assured. Any cash payments received on nonaccrual finance and notes receivable are applied first to the principal balances. The Company does not resume accrual of interest income until the customer has shown that it is capable of meeting its financial obligations by making timely payments over a sustained period of time. The Company determines past due or delinquency status based upon the due date of the receivable.
Receivables subject to specific reserves also include loans that the Company has modified in troubled debt restructurings as a concession to customers experiencing financial difficulty. To minimize the economic loss, the Company may modify certain finance and notes receivable. Modifications generally consist of restructured payment terms and time frames in which no payments are required. At December 31, 2017, restructured finance and notes receivables were $3.0 million and $6.1 million, respectively. Losses on troubled debt restructurings were not significant during the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

Equipment on operating lease to others represents the cost of equipment shipped to customers for whom the Company has guaranteed the residual value and equipment on short-term leases. These transactions are accounted for as operating leases with the related assets capitalized and depreciated over their estimated economic lives of five to ten years. Cost less accumulated depreciation for equipment on operating lease at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 was $19.8 million and $21.6 million, respectively.
6. Goodwill and Purchased Intangible Assets
Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but are reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if potential interim indicators exist that could result in impairment. The Company performs its annual impairment test in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year.

In March 2014, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with various lenders (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for (i) a revolving credit facility (Revolving Credit Facility) that matures in March 2019 with an initial maximum aggregate amount of availability of $600 million and (ii) a $400 million term loan (Term Loan) due in quarterly principal installments of $5 million with a balloon payment of $310 million due at maturity in March 2019. In January 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with lenders under the Credit Agreement that increased the Revolving Credit Facility to an aggregate maximum amount of $850 million. At December 31, 2017, outstanding letters of credit of $94.9 million reduced available capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility to $755.1 million.
The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of its domestic subsidiaries, and the Company will guarantee the obligations of certain of its subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement. Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Agreement is collateralized by (i) a first-priority perfected lien and security interests in substantially all of the personal property of the Company, each material subsidiary of the Company and each subsidiary guarantor, (ii) mortgages upon certain real property of the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries and (iii) a pledge of the equity of each material subsidiary of the Company.
OSHKOSH CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Under the Credit Agreement, the Company must pay (i) an unused commitment fee ranging from 0.225% to 0.35% per annum of the average daily unused portion of the aggregate revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement and (ii) a fee ranging from 0.625% to 2.00% per annum of the maximum amount available to be drawn for each letter of credit issued and outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus a specified margin, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on whether certain criteria are satisfied, or (ii) for dollar-denominated loans only, the base rate (which is the highest of (a) the administrative agent’s prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% plus one-month LIBOR) plus a specified margin, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on whether certain criteria are satisfied. At December 31, 2017, the interest spread on the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan was 150 basis points. The weighted-average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Term Loan at December 31, 2017 was 2.85%.
The Credit Agreement contains various restrictions and covenants, including requirements that the Company maintain certain financial ratios at prescribed levels and restrictions, subject to certain exceptions, on the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to consolidate or merge, create liens, incur additional indebtedness, dispose of assets, consummate acquisitions and make investments in joint ventures and foreign subsidiaries.
The Credit Agreement contains the following financial covenants:
| |
• | Leverage Ratio: A maximum leverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of the Company’s consolidated indebtedness to consolidated net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash charges and certain other items (EBITDA)) as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of 4.50 to 1.00. |
| |
• | Interest Coverage Ratio: A minimum interest coverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of the Company’s consolidated EBITDA to the Company’s consolidated cash interest expense) as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of 2.50 to 1.00. |
| |
• | Senior Secured Leverage Ratio: A maximum senior secured leverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of the Company’s consolidated secured indebtedness to the Company’s consolidated EBITDA) of 3.00 to 1.00. |
With certain exceptions, the Company may elect to have the collateral pledged in connection with the Credit Agreement released during any period that the Company maintains an investment grade corporate family rating from either S&P Global Ratings or Moody’s Investor Service. During any such period when the collateral has been released, the Company’s leverage ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter must not be greater than 3.75 to 1.00, and the Company would not be subject to any additional requirement to limit its senior secured leverage ratio.
The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2017.
Additionally, with certain exceptions, the Credit Agreement limits the ability of the Company to pay dividends and other distributions, including repurchases of shares of its Common Stock. However, so long as no event of default exists under the Credit Agreement or would result from such payment, the Company may pay dividends and other distributions after March 3, 2010 in an aggregate amount not exceeding the sum of:
| |
i. | 50% of the consolidated net income of the Company and its subsidiaries (or if such consolidated net income is a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit), accrued on a cumulative basis during the period beginning on January 1, 2010 and ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of the applicable proposed dividend or distribution; and |
| |
ii. | 100% of the aggregate net proceeds received by the Company subsequent to March 3, 2010 either as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issuance and sale of its Common Stock. |
In February 2014, the Company issued $250.0 million of 5.375% unsecured senior notes due March 1, 2022 (the “2022 Senior Notes”). In March 2015, the Company issued $250.0 million of 5.375% unsecured senior notes due March 1, 2025 (the “2025 Senior Notes”). The proceeds of both note issuances were used to repay existing outstanding notes of the Company. The Company has the option to redeem the 2022 Senior Notes and the 2025 Senior Notes for a premium after March 1, 2017 and March 1, 2020, respectively.
OSHKOSH CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
The 2022 Senior Notes and the 2025 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to separate indentures (the “Indentures”) among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors named therein and a trustee. The Indentures contain customary affirmative and negative covenants. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally guarantee the Company’s obligations under the 2022 Senior Notes and 2025 Senior Notes. See Note 20 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for separate financial information of the subsidiary guarantors.
The fair value of the long-term debt is estimated based upon Level 2 inputs to reflect market rate of the Company’s debt. At December 31, 2017, the fair value of the 2022 Senior Notes and the 2025 Senior Notes was estimated to be $257 million ($260 million at September 30, 2017) and $264 million ($264 million at September 30, 2017), respectively. The fair value of the Term Loan approximated book value at both December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017. See Note 11 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the definition of a Level 2 input.
8. Warranties
The Company’s products generally carry explicit warranties that extend from six months to five years, based on terms that are generally accepted in the marketplace. Selected components (such as engines, transmissions, tires, etc.) included in the Company’s end products may include manufacturers’ warranties. These manufacturers’ warranties are generally passed on to the end customer of the Company’s products, and the customer would generally deal directly with the component manufacturer.
The Company offers a variety of extended warranty programs. The premiums received for an extended warranty are generally deferred until after the expiration of the standard warranty period. The unearned premium is then recognized in income over the term of the extended warranty period in proportion to the costs that are expected to be incurred. Unamortized extended warranty premiums totaled $30.8 million and $29.4 million at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Changes in the Company’s warranty liability and unearned extended warranty premiums were as follows (in millions):

Provisions for estimated warranty and other related costs are recorded at the time of sale and are periodically adjusted to reflect actual experience. Certain warranty and other related claims involve matters of dispute that ultimately are resolved by negotiation, arbitration or litigation. At times, warranty issues arise that are beyond the scope of the Company's historical experience. It is reasonably possible that additional warranty and other related claims could arise from disputes or other matters in excess of amounts accrued; however, the Company does not expect that any such amounts, while not determinable, would have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

9. Guarantee Arrangements
The Company is party to multiple agreements whereby at December 31, 2017 it guaranteed an aggregate of $665.3 million in indebtedness of customers. The Company estimated that its maximum loss exposure under these contracts at December 31, 2017 was $122.8 million. Under the terms of these and various related agreements and upon the occurrence of certain events, the Company generally has the ability to, among other things, take possession of the underlying collateral. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate and result in their inability to make payments, then loss provisions in excess of amounts provided for at inception may be required. While the Company does not expect to experience losses under these agreements that are materially in excess of the amounts reserved, it cannot provide any assurance that the financial condition of the third parties will not deteriorate resulting in the third parties’ inability to meet their obligations. In the event that this occurs, the Company cannot guarantee that the collateral underlying the agreements will be sufficient to avoid losses materially in excess of the amounts reserved. Any losses under these guarantees would generally be mitigated by the value of any underlying collateral, including financed equipment, and are generally subject to the finance company's ability to provide the Company clear title to foreclosed equipment and other conditions. During periods of economic weakness, collateral values generally decline and can contribute to higher exposure to losses.

10. Shareholders' Equity
On August 31, 2015, the Company's Board of Directors increased the Company's Common Stock repurchase authorization by 10,000,000 shares, increasing the repurchase authorization to 10,299,198 shares. The Company repurchased 748,000 shares of Common Stock under this authorization during the three months ended December 31, 2017 at a cost of $63.7 million. The Company did not repurchase any shares under this authorization during the three months ended December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2017, the Company repurchased 3,534,624 shares under this authorization at a cost of $175.7 million. The Company had 6,764,574 shares of Common Stock remaining under this repurchase authorization as of December 31, 2017. The Company is restricted by its Credit Agreement from repurchasing shares in certain situations. See Note 7 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding these restrictions.
11. Fair Value Measurement
FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB ASC Topic 820 requires disclosures that categorize assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the assumptions (i.e., inputs) used in the valuation. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, while Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment.
OSHKOSH CORPORATION

The three levels are defined as follows:
| |
Level 1: | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| |
Level 2: | Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets. |
| |
Level 3: | Unobservable inputs reflecting management's own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. |

12. Stock-Based Compensation
In February 2017, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2017 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan (the “2017 Stock Plan”). The 2017 Stock Plan replaced the 2009 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan (as amended, the “2009 Stock Plan”). While no new awards will be granted under the 2009 Stock Plan or its predecessor, the 2004 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan, awards previously made under these two plans that were outstanding as of the approval date of the 2017 Stock Plan will remain outstanding and continue to be governed by the provisions of the respective stock plan under which they were issued. At December 31, 2017, the Company had reserved 8,175,910 shares of Common Stock available for issuance to provide for the exercise of outstanding stock options and the issuance of Common Stock under incentive compensation awards, including awards issued prior to the effective date of the 2017 Stock Plan.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period for vesting of an award, or to an employee's eligible retirement date, if earlier and applicable. Total stock-based compensation expense, including cash-based liability awards, for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $8.5 million ($6.6 million net of tax) and $7.9 million ($5.0 million net of tax), respectively.
13. Restructuring and Other Charges
In September 2016, the Company committed to transition its access equipment aftermarket parts distribution network to a third party logistics company. This initiative is intended to improve customer service levels, increase operational efficiency and allow the Company to reallocate resources to invest in future growth. The Company expected to incur cash charges related to severance costs and other employment-related benefits of approximately $3.0 million related to this decision, of which $0.2 million and $0.7 million was incurred in the three months ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.
In January 2017, the access equipment segment announced it had committed to certain restructuring plans as part of simplification activities in support of the Company’s MOVE strategy. The plans include the closure of its manufacturing plant and pre-delivery inspection facilities in Belgium, the streamlining of telehandler product offerings to a reduced range in Europe, the transfer of remaining European telehandler manufacturing to the Company’s facility in Romania and reductions in engineering staff supporting European telehandlers, including the closure of the UK-based engineering facility. The announced plans also include the move of North American telehandler production from Ohio to facilities in Pennsylvania. The Company recognized $3.1 million of restructuring costs under this program in the three months ended December 31, 2017 and expects another $4 million to be recognized in fiscal 2018.
The Company had originally expected total implementation costs for the September 2016 and January 2017 access equipment segment restructuring actions to be between $48 million and $53 million. The Company made significant progress on implementing these actions in fiscal 2017 however, during the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company experienced issues that caused operational inefficiencies resulting in additional costs. The Company now expects total costs for these actions to be approximately $73 million, including approximately $30 million of operating costs. During the three months ended December 31, 2017, the access equipment segment recognized $13.0 million of operational costs related to these actions, and the Company expects another $6 million to be recognized in fiscal 2018.
In December 2017, the commercial segment announced it will undertake certain restructuring actions to realign a portion of the business under three product platforms. The Company expects to incur approximately $4.0 million of total restructuring-related costs in connection with the plan, which primarily consists of employee severance and termination benefits costs and one-time costs associated with the exit of underperforming branch facilities. The Company recognized $2.5 million of the costs in the three months ended December 31, 2017 and expects the remaining amount to be recognized in fiscal 2018.

15. Income Taxes
The Company recorded income tax expense of $4.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017, or 7.8% of pre-tax income, compared to $5.2 million, or 21.8% of pre-tax income, for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Results for the three months ended December 31, 2017 were favorably impacted by $10.3 million of net discrete tax benefits, including a $3.3 million benefit related to share-based compensation tax deductions, and a $6.5 million net benefit related to new tax legislation in the United States. Results for the three months ended December 31, 2016 were favorably impacted by $2.8 million of discrete tax benefits, including $2.1 million of tax benefits related to the release of valuation allowances on deferred tax assets for state net operating loss carryforwards and $0.7 million related to the release of valuation allowances on deferred taxes on federal capital loss carryforwards.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”) was signed into law by President Trump. The Tax Reform Act significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax regime by, among other things, lowering the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018, while also repealing the deduction for domestic production activities, implementing a territorial tax system and imposing a repatriation tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. U.S. GAAP requires that the impact of tax legislation be recognized in the period in which the law was enacted. As a result of the Tax Reform Act, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $23.9 million due to a remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities and a tax charge of $17.4 million due to the transition tax on deemed repatriation of deferred foreign income, in the three months ended December 31, 2017. Both of the tax benefit and the tax charge represent provisional amounts and the Company’s current best estimates. Any adjustments recorded to the provisional amounts through the first quarter of fiscal 2019 will be included in income from operations as an adjustment to tax expense. The provisional amounts incorporate assumptions made based upon the Company’s current interpretation of the Tax Reform Act and may change as the Company receives additional clarification and implementation guidance.
Because of the complexity of the new Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) tax rules, the Company continues to evaluate this provision of the Tax Reform Act and the application of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under U.S. GAAP, the Company is allowed to make an accounting policy choice of either (1) treating taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI as a current-period expense when incurred (the “period cost method”) or (2) factoring such amounts into the Company's measurement of its deferred taxes (the “deferred method”). The Company's selection of an accounting policy with respect to the new GILTI tax rules will depend, in part, on analyzing its global income to determine whether it expects to have future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI and, if so, what the impact is expected to be. Whether the Company expects to have future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI depends on not only the Company's current structure and estimated future results of global operations, but also its intent and ability to modify its structure. The Company's currently in the process of analyzing its structure and, as a result, is not yet able to reasonably estimate the effect of this provision of the Tax Reform Act. Therefore, the Company has not made any adjustments related to potential GILTI tax in its financial statements and has not made a policy decision regarding whether to record deferred tax on GILTI.
The Company’s liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding related interest and penalties, was $37.3 million and $37.2 million as of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017, respectively. As of December 31, 2017, net unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, of $21.1 million would affect the Company’s net income if recognized.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in the “Provision for income taxes” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized costs of $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, related to interest and penalties. At December 31, 2017, the Company had accruals for the payment of interest and penalties of $10.2 million. During the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that federal, state and foreign tax audit resolutions could reduce net unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $3.0 million because the Company’s tax positions are sustained on audit, the Company agrees to their disallowance or the statutes of limitations close.

18. Contingencies, Significant Estimates and Concentrations
Personal Injury Actions and Other - Product and general liability claims are made against the Company from time to time in the ordinary course of business. The Company is generally self-insured for future claims up to $5.0 million per claim. Accordingly, a reserve is maintained for the estimated costs of such claims. At December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017, the estimated net liabilities for product and general liability claims totaled $40.0 million and $39.1 million, respectively. There is inherent uncertainty as to the eventual resolution of unsettled claims. Management, however, believes that any losses in excess of established reserves will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Market Risks - The Company was contingently liable under bid, performance and specialty bonds totaling $630.3 million and $598.4 million at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017, respectively. Open standby letters of credit issued by the Company’s banks in favor of third parties totaled $94.9 million and $96.9 million at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017, respectively.
Other Matters - The Company is subject to environmental matters and legal proceedings and claims, including patent, antitrust, product liability, breach of contract, warranty and state dealership regulation compliance proceedings, that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the final results of all such matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of all such matters and claims will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Actual results could vary, among other things, due to the uncertainties involved in litigation.
Major contracts for military systems are performed over extended periods of time and are subject to changes in scope of work and delivery schedules. Pricing negotiations on changes and settlement of claims often extend over prolonged periods of time. The Company’s ultimate profitability on such contracts may depend on the eventual outcome of an equitable settlement of contractual issues with the Company’s customers.

The Company was one of several bidders on a large, multi-year military truck solicitation for the Canadian government. The Company's bid was not selected, and the Company subsequently submitted a legal challenge of that conclusion. In May 2016, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the “Tribunal”) ruled in the Company's favor in connection with that challenge. In December 2017, the Tribunal issued its determination outlining the compensation to which the Company is entitled as a result of the challenge. Due to the expectation that the Canadian government will appeal this matter, the Company has not recognized any gain for this matter as it is not yet realized or realizable.
19. Business Segment Information
The Company is organized into four reportable segments based on the internal organization used by the President and Chief Executive Officer for making operating decisions and measuring performance and based on the similarity of customers served, common management, common use of facilities and economic results attained.
In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, for purposes of business segment performance measurement, the Company does not allocate to individual business segments costs or items that are of a non-operating nature or organizational or functional expenses of a corporate nature. The caption “Corporate” includes corporate office expenses, share-based compensation, costs of certain business initiatives and shared services or operations benefiting multiple segments, and results of insignificant operations. Identifiable assets of the business segments exclude general corporate assets, which principally consist of cash and cash equivalents, certain property, plant and equipment, and certain other assets pertaining to corporate activities. Intersegment sales generally include amounts invoiced by a segment for work performed for another segment. Amounts are based on actual work performed and agreed-upon pricing, which is intended to be reflective of the contribution made by the supplying business segment.

20. Separate Financial Information of Subsidiary Guarantors of Indebtedness
The 2022 Senior Notes and the 2025 Senior Notes are jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of the Company’s 100% owned existing and future subsidiaries that from time to time guarantee obligations under the Credit Agreement, with certain exceptions (the “Guarantors”).
Under the Indentures governing the 2022 Senior Notes and 2025 Senior Notes, a Guarantor’s guarantee of such Senior Notes will be automatically and unconditionally released and will terminate upon the following customary circumstances: (i) the sale of such Guarantor or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor if such sale complies with the Indentures; (ii) if such Guarantor no longer guarantees certain other indebtedness of the Company; or (iii) the defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the Indentures. The following condensed supplemental consolidating financial information reflects the summarized financial information of Oshkosh Corporation, the Guarantors on a combined basis and Oshkosh Corporation’s non-guarantor subsidiaries on a combined basis (in millions):

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Cautionary Statement About Forward-Looking Statements
This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contain statements that Oshkosh Corporation (the “Company”) believes to be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s future financial position, business strategy, targets, projected sales, costs, earnings, capital expenditures, debt levels and cash flows, and plans and objectives of management for future operations, including those under the caption “Executive Overview” are forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “should,” “project” or “plan” or the negative thereof or variations thereon or similar terminology are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These factors include the cyclical nature of the Company’s access equipment, commercial and fire & emergency markets, which are particularly impacted by the strength of U.S. and European economies and construction seasons; the Company’s estimates of access equipment demand which, among other factors, is influenced by customer historical buying patterns and rental company fleet replacement strategies; the strength of the U.S. dollar and its impact on Company exports, translation of foreign sales and purchased materials; the expected level and timing of U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and international defense customer procurement of products and services and acceptance of and funding or payments for such products and services; risks related to reductions in government expenditures in light of U.S. defense budget pressures, sequestration and an uncertain DoD tactical wheeled vehicle strategy; the impact of any DoD solicitation for competition for future contracts to produce military vehicles, including a future Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles production contract; the Company’s ability to increase prices to raise margins or offset higher input costs; increasing commodity and other raw material costs, particularly in a sustained economic recovery; risks related to facilities expansion, consolidation and alignment, including the amounts of related costs and charges and that anticipated cost savings may not be achieved; projected adoption rates of work at height machinery in emerging markets; the impact of severe weather or natural disasters that may affect the Company, its suppliers or its customers; risks related to the collectibility of receivables, particularly for those businesses with exposure to construction markets; the cost of any warranty campaigns related to the Company’s products; risks associated with international operations and sales, including compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; the Company’s ability to comply with complex laws and regulations applicable to U.S. government contractors; cybersecurity risks and costs of defending against, mitigating and responding to data security threats and breaches; and risks related to the Company’s ability to successfully execute on its strategic road map and meet its long-term financial goals. Additional information concerning these and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements is contained from time to time in the Company's U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, including, but not limited to, the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 25, 2018 and Item 1A. of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
All forward-looking statements, including those under the caption “Executive Overview,” speak only as of the date the Company files this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the SEC. The Company assumes no obligation, and disclaims any obligation, to update information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Investors should be aware that the Company may not update such information until the Company’s next quarterly earnings conference call, if at all.
All references herein to earnings per share refer to earning per share assuming dilution.

Major products manufactured and marketed by each of the Company’s business segments are as follows:

Commercial — concrete mixers, refuse collection vehicles, portable and stationary concrete batch plants and vehicle components sold to ready-mix companies and commercial and municipal waste haulers in the Americas and other international markets and field service vehicles and truck-mounted cranes sold to mining, construction and other companies in the U.S. and abroad.
Executive Overview
The Company reported earnings per share of $0.74 in the first quarter of fiscal 2018, which exceeded both earnings per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and the Company's expectations. Improved results in the defense, fire & emergency and commercial segments and a lower provision for income taxes were offset in part by lower access equipment segment operating income and higher corporate expenses. Results for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 included $14.1 million, or $0.18 per share, of after-tax charges and operating inefficiencies associated with restructuring actions in the access equipment and commercial segments. Results for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 benefited from one-time discrete tax benefits of $6.5 million, or $0.08 per share, as a result of the implementation of tax reform in the United States.
Consolidated net sales increased $374.9 million, or 30.9%, to $1.59 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was driven by double-digit percentage increases in the defense, access equipment and commercial segments. Order intake was up in all four segments in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company believes that the order activity experienced in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 in all non-defense segments reflects the broader, positive macro-economic conditions in its markets, especially in the United States.
Consolidated operating income increased 103.9% to $73.8 million, or 4.7% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $36.2 million, or 3.0% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. First quarter fiscal 2018 results included $18.6 million of charges and operating inefficiencies associated with restructuring actions in the access equipment and commercial segments. The increase in operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily a result of higher gross margin associated with higher sales volume, offset in part by operating inefficiencies and charges related to restructuring actions in the access equipment segment, increased material costs and adverse product mix.
In the first quarter of 2018, charges and operating inefficiencies associated with restructuring plans in the access equipment segment were significantly higher than the Company had expected. The access equipment segment had made significant progress implementing the plan to outsource aftermarket parts distribution and relocate manufacturing in the U.S. and Europe in fiscal 2017. During the first quarter of fiscal 2018, however, the access equipment segment experienced issues that caused operational inefficiencies resulting in additional costs. The Company believes most of the issues have been rectified but still expects that the segment will experience some additional inefficiencies in fiscal 2018. Due to the additional time and effort required to completely transition production and aftermarket warehousing and fulfillment activities, the Company now expects the total project costs will be approximately $73 million, approximately $20 million higher than the Company's previous estimate. The Company continues to expect these actions will result in ongoing savings of $20 million to $25 million per year once fully implemented.
The combined impact of better than expected results in the first quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company's positive outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year, the impact of the new tax legislation in the United States and higher expected costs and inefficiencies related to restructuring actions, led the Company to increase its fiscal 2018 earnings per share estimate range from $4.20 to $4.60 to a range of $4.75 to $5.20 on estimated operating income of $520 million to $570 million. Approximately $0.55 of the increase in earnings per share range is the result of the decrease in the effective tax rate resulting from tax reform in the United States. Excluding expected operating inefficiencies and charges related to announced restructuring actions in the access equipment and commercial segments and the one-time discrete adjustments associated with implementing tax reform, the Company also increased its fiscal 2018 adjusted earnings per share estimate range from $4.25 to $4.65 to a range of $5.00 to $5.45 on estimated adjusted operating income of $550 million to $600 million. Strong order activity in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 in the access equipment segment and a more positive outlook after completion of annual negotiations with the national rental companies during the quarter also resulted in the Company increasing its fiscal 2018 sales estimate range in the access equipment segment by $200 million, resulting in estimated consolidated sales in fiscal 2018 of between $7.1 billion and $7.3 billion.
The Company now expects access equipment segment fiscal 2018 sales to be $3.3 billion to $3.4 billion, compared to the Company's previous expectation of $3.1 billion to $3.2 billion. The revised sales estimate for fiscal 2018 represents an estimated 9% to 12% increase from fiscal 2017 sales. The Company is lowering its fiscal 2018 operating income margin outlook range for the access equipment segment from a range of 10.3% to 10.8% to a range of 9.95% to 10.5%, reflecting higher charges and inefficiencies related to restructuring actions and a less favorable mix, offset in part by improved absorption. Excluding expected operating inefficiencies and charges related to restructuring actions, the Company expects adjusted operating income margins in the access equipment segment in fiscal 2018 will be in the range of 10.75% to 11.25%, up from the Company's previous adjusted operating income margin outlook range for this segment of 10.5% to 11.0%.
The Company continues to expect defense segment fiscal 2018 sales to be approximately $1.80 billion to $1.85 billion. The Company is increasing its fiscal 2018 operating income margin estimate range for the defense segment from a range of 9.5% to 9.75% to a range of 9.75% to 10.0%, reflecting the strong performance from this segment in the first quarter of fiscal 2018.
The Company's fiscal 2018 sales expectations for the fire & emergency segment remain unchanged at approximately $1.1 billion. The Company is increasing its fiscal 2018 operating income margin outlook range for the fire & emergency segment from a range of 10.5% to 11.0% to a range of 10.75% to 11.25%, again reflecting the strong performance from this segment in the first quarter of fiscal 2018.
The Company is tightening its fiscal 2018 sales outlook for the commercial segment to approximately $975 million, the high end of the Company's previous range of $950 million to $975 million. Solely as a result of expected restructuring charges associated with announced restructuring actions, the Company is lowering its expected operating income margins in the commercial segment for fiscal 2018 from a range of 5.75% to 6.25% to a range of 5.35% to 5.85%. Excluding expected restructuring charges, the Company expects adjusted operating income margins in the commercial segment in fiscal 2018 will be in the range of 5.75% to 6.25%, consistent with previous estimates.
The Company is now estimating that fiscal 2018 corporate expenses will be approximately $155 million compared to the previous expectation of $150 million. The Company now expects its effective tax rate to be approximately 21.8%, down from the Company's previous expected effective tax rate of 30.3%. Excluding the tax impact associated with expected operating inefficiencies and charges related to announced restructuring actions in the access equipment and commercial segments and the one-time discrete adjustments associated with tax reform, the adjusted effective tax rate estimate is now expected to be approximately 23.0% compared to the Company's previous expectation of 30.5%. The Company continues to expect its estimated share count to be approximately 76 million shares.
The Company expects higher earnings per share in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2017 on higher sales and operating income in all non-defense segments and a lower tax rate. The Company expects defense segment sales and operating income to be lower as expected higher Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) sales will only partially offset lower sales of international Mine Resistant Ambush Protected-All Terrain Vehicles (M-ATV).

First Quarter Fiscal 2018 Compared to 2017
Consolidated net sales increased $374.9 million, or 30.9%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company reported double-digit percentage sales growth in the defense, access equipment and commercial segments.
Access equipment segment net sales increased $139.0 million, or 28.4%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in sales was primarily due to improved demand for both aerial work platforms and telehandlers.
Defense segment net sales increased $199.0 million, or 67.6%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in sales was primarily due to the ramp up of sales to the U.S. government under the JLTV program and international M-ATV sales.
Fire & emergency segment net sales decreased $3.4 million, or 1.5%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The decrease in sales was primarily due to lower airport products international volume (down $17 million), offset in part by improved pricing (up $8 million).
Commercial segment net sales increased $42.2 million, or 21.2%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in sales was primarily due to higher concrete placement (up $27 million) and refuse collection vehicle (up $9 million) unit volume. Fiscal 2017 first quarter sales were negatively impacted by an atypical order pattern.

First Quarter Fiscal 2018 Compared to 2017
Consolidated cost of sales was $1.34 billion, or 84.7% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $1.01 billion, or 83.5% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The 120 basis point increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was largely due to higher material costs (120 basis points) as well as charges and operating inefficiencies related to restructuring actions in the access equipment and commercial segments (120 basis points), offset in part by improved manufacturing performance (130 basis points), primarily in the fire & emergency and defense segments.
Access equipment segment cost of sales was $551.7 million, or 87.8% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $399.5 million, or 81.7% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The 610 basis point increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was largely due to higher material costs (250 basis points), charges and operating inefficiencies related to restructuring actions (250 basis points), higher legal and inventory reserve adjustments (combined 90 basis points), an adverse foreign exchange impact (60 basis points) and unfavorable customer mix.
Defense segment cost of sales was $407.6 million, or 82.6% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $248.9 million, or 84.5% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The 190 basis point decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily attributable to improved manufacturing performance (390 basis points) and lower new product development spending on higher sales (100 basis points), offset in part by adverse product mix (310 basis points).
Fire & emergency segment cost of sales was $183.8 million, or 80.2% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $198.2 million, or 85.3% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The 510 basis point decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily attributable to improved pricing (250 basis points) and improved manufacturing performance (220 basis points).
Commercial segment cost of sales was $206.2 million, or 85.4% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $169.9 million, or 85.3% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.
Intersegment eliminations and other includes intercompany profit on inter-segment sales not yet sold to third party customers.

First Quarter Fiscal 2018 Compared to 2017
Consolidated operating income increased 103.9% to $73.8 million, or 4.7% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $36.2 million, or 3.0% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily a result of higher gross margin associated with higher sales volume ($90 million), offset in part by charges and operating inefficiencies related to restructuring actions in the access equipment and commercial segments ($19 million), increased material costs ($18 million) and adverse product mix ($13 million).
Access equipment segment operating income decreased 43.4% to $13.8 million, or 2.2% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $24.4 million, or 5.0% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The decrease in operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily a result of charges and operating inefficiencies related to restructuring actions ($16 million), higher material costs ($16 million), higher legal and inventory reserve adjustments ($5 million), unfavorable customer mix and an adverse foreign exchange impact, offset in part by higher gross margin associated with higher sales volume ($36 million).
Defense segment operating income increased 173.9% to $65.2 million, or 13.2% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $23.8 million, or 8.1% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was largely due to higher gross margin associated with higher sales volume ($43 million) and improved manufacturing performance ($12 million), offset in part by adverse product mix ($14 million).
Fire & emergency segment operating income increased 47.6% to $25.1 million, or 11.0% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $17.0 million, or 7.3% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily a result of improved pricing ($8 million) and improved manufacturing performance ($5 million), offset in part by higher selling, general and administrative expenses ($3 million).
Commercial segment operating income increased 80.4% to $8.3 million, or 3.4% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $4.6 million, or 2.3% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily a result of higher gross margin associated with higher sales volume ($8 million), offset in part by restructuring charges of $2.5 million.
Corporate operating costs increased $5.0 million to $38.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $33.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in corporate operating costs in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily due to higher new product development spending ($1 million), increased share-based compensation expense ($1 million) and the timing of costs.
Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses increased 4.5% to $157.8 million, or 9.9% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $151.0 million, or 12.5% of sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was generally a result of higher salaries and fringe benefit costs.
Analysis of Non-Operating Income Statement Items
First Quarter Fiscal 2018 Compared to 2017
Interest expense net of interest income decreased $0.2 million to $13.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $13.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.
Other miscellaneous income of $0.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 and $1.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 primarily related to net foreign currency transaction gains and losses.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $4.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018, or 7.8% of pre-tax income, compared to $5.2 million, or 21.8% of pre-tax income, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Results for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 were favorably impacted by discrete tax benefits of $10.3 million, primarily due to favorable share-based compensation tax benefits of $3.3 million and a $6.5 million net benefit related to the implementation of new tax legislation in the United States. Results for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 were favorably impacted by $2.8 million of discrete tax benefits, largely related to state tax matters.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”) was signed into law by President Trump. The Tax Reform Act significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax regime by, among other things, lowering the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective January 1, 2018, repealing the deduction for domestic production activities, implementing a territorial tax system and imposing a repatriation tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. As a result of the Tax Reform Act, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $23.9 million due to a remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities and a tax charge of $17.4 million due to the transition tax on deemed repatriation of deferred foreign income
in first quarter of fiscal 2018. Both of the tax benefit and the tax charge represent provisional amounts and the Company's current best estimates. Any adjustments recorded to the provisional amounts through the first quarter of fiscal 2019 will be included in income from operations as an adjustment to tax expense. The provisional amounts incorporate assumptions made based upon the Company’s current interpretation of the Tax Reform Act and may change as the Company receives additional clarification and implementation guidance. As a result of tax reform, the Company anticipates that its effective tax rate, prior to discrete tax benefits, will be approximately 24.5% in fiscal 2018. Longer term, once the full effect of the lower statutory tax rate begins to impact the Company, the Company anticipates that its effective tax rate, prior to discrete tax benefits, will range between 22% and 24%. This estimate reflects the repeal of the deduction for domestic production activities and other items of the Tax Reform Act that are less beneficial.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates of $0.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 and $0.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 primarily represented the Company’s equity interest in a commercial entity in Mexico and a joint venture in Europe.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company generates significant capital resources from operating activities, which is the expected primary source of funding for its operations. Other sources of liquidity are available under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in “Liquidity”) and available cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2017, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $379.1 million. In addition to cash and cash equivalents, the Company had $755.1 million of unused available capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2017. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility could, as discussed below, be limited by the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement (as defined in “Liquidity”). These sources of liquidity are needed to fund the Company's working capital requirements, debt service requirements, capital expenditures, dividends and share repurchases. The Company expects to meet its fiscal 2018 U.S. funding needs without repatriating undistributed profits that are indefinitely reinvested outside the United States.
During the first three months of fiscal 2018, the Company repurchased 748,000 shares of Common Stock, under a repurchase authorization approved by the Company's Board of Directors in August 2015, at a cost of $63.7 million. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had approximately 6.8 million shares of Common Stock remaining under this repurchase authorization.
The Company now expects to generate approximately $500 million of cash flow from operations in fiscal 2018, an increase from the Company's previous estimate of $450 million. The increase primarily reflects lower expected estimated tax payments as a result of tax reform in the United States. The Company expects fiscal 2018 capital spending to be approximately $100 million. This estimate does not include any capital associated with the potential construction of a new global headquarters building. If the Company proceeds with a new global headquarters building, the Company believes any related additional capital spending in fiscal 2018 would not have a significant impact on the Company's liquidity. The Company expects to have sufficient liquidity to finance its operations over the next twelve months.
Financial Condition at December 31, 2017
The Company’s capitalization was as follows (in millions):

Debt to total capitalization | 26.6 | % | | 26.5 | % |
The Company's ratio of debt to total capitalization of 26.6% at December 31, 2017 remained within its targeted range.
Consolidated days sales outstanding (defined as “Trade Receivables” at quarter end divided by “Net Sales” for the most recent quarter multiplied by 90 days) increased from 56 days at September 30, 2017 to 65 days at December 31, 2017 primarily as a result of timing of payment on a large international order within the defense segment. Days sales outstanding for segments other than the defense segment decreased slightly from 52 days at September 30, 2017 to 50 days at December 31, 2017. Consolidated inventory turns (defined as “Cost of Sales” on an annualized basis, divided by the average “Inventory” at the past five quarter end periods) decreased slightly from 4.5 times at September 30, 2017 to 4.1 times at December 31, 2017.
Cash Flows
Operating Cash Flows
Operating activities generated $29.2 million of cash in the first three months of fiscal 2018 compared to $83.8 million in the first three months of fiscal 2017. The decline in operating cash flow in the first three months of fiscal 2018 as compared to the first three months of fiscal 2017 was primarily the result of timing of payments on an international defense contract.
Investing Cash Flows
Investing activities used cash of $18.2 million in the first three months of fiscal 2018 compared to $22.0 million in the first three months of fiscal 2017. Capital spending, excluding equipment held for rental, of $18.7 million in the first three months of fiscal 2018 reflected an increase of $4.5 million compared to capital spending in the first three months of fiscal 2017.
Financing Cash Flows
Financing activities used cash of $79.0 million in the first three months of fiscal 2018 compared to $12.4 million in the first three months of fiscal 2017. In the first three months of fiscal 2018, the Company repurchased 748,000 shares of its Common Stock at an aggregate cost of $63.7 million under the repurchase authorization approved by the Company's Board of Directors. The Company did not repurchase any shares of Common Stock under this authorization during the first three months of fiscal 2017.
Liquidity
Senior Secured Credit Agreement
In March 2014, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with various lenders (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for (i) a revolving credit facility (Revolving Credit Facility) that matures in March 2019 with an initial maximum aggregate amount of availability of $600 million and (ii) a $400 million term loan due in quarterly principal installments of $5 million with a balloon payment of $310 million due at maturity in March 2019. In January 2015, the Revolving Credit Facility was increased to an aggregate maximum amount of $850 million. Refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Credit Agreement.
The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of its domestic subsidiaries, and the Company will guarantee the obligations of certain of its subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement. Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Agreement is collateralized by (i) a first-priority perfected lien and security interests in substantially all of the personal property of the Company, each material subsidiary of the Company and each subsidiary guarantor, (ii) mortgages upon certain real property of the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries and (iii) a pledge of the equity of each material subsidiary of the Company.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus a specified margin, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on whether certain criteria are satisfied, or (ii) for dollar-denominated loans only, the base rate (which is the highest of (a) the administrative agent's prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% plus one-month LIBOR) plus a specified margin, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on whether certain criteria are satisfied.
Covenant Compliance
The Credit Agreement contains various restrictions and covenants, including requirements that the Company maintain certain financial ratios at prescribed levels and restrictions, subject to certain exceptions, on the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to consolidate or merge, create liens, incur additional indebtedness, dispose of assets, consummate acquisitions and make investments in joint ventures and foreign subsidiaries.
The Credit Agreement contains the following financial covenants:
| |
• | Leverage Ratio: A maximum leverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of the Company’s consolidated indebtedness to consolidated net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash charges and certain other items (EBITDA)) as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of 4.50 to 1.0. |
| |
• | Interest Coverage Ratio: A minimum interest coverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of the Company’s consolidated EBITDA to the Company’s consolidated cash interest expense) as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of 2.50 to 1.0. |

During any such period when the collateral has been released, the Company’s leverage ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter must not be greater than 3.75 to 1.0, and the Company would not be subject to any additional requirement to limit its senior secured leverage ratio.
The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2017 and expects to be able to meet the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement over the next twelve months.
Additionally, with certain exceptions, the Credit Agreement limits the ability of the Company to pay dividends and other distributions, including repurchases of shares of its Common Stock. However, so long as no event of default exists under the Credit Agreement or would result from such payment, the Company may pay dividends and other distributions after March 3, 2010 in an aggregate amount not exceeding the sum of:

i. | 50% of the consolidated net income of the Company and its subsidiaries (or if such consolidated net income is a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit), accrued on a cumulative basis during the period beginning on January 1, 2010 and ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of the applicable proposed dividend or distribution; and |
| |
ii. | 100% of the aggregate net proceeds received by the Company subsequent to March 3, 2010 either as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issuance and sale of its Common Stock. |
Senior Notes
In February 2014, the Company issued $250.0 million of 5.375% unsecured senior notes due March 1, 2022 (the “2022 Senior Notes”). In March 2015, the Company issued $250.0 million of 5.375% unsecured senior notes due March 1, 2025 (the “2025 Senior Notes”). The proceeds of both note issuances were used to repay existing outstanding notes of the Company. The Company has the option to redeem the 2022 Senior Notes and the 2025 Senior Notes for a premium after March 1, 2017 and March 1, 2020, respectively.
The 2022 Senior Notes and the 2025 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to separate indentures (the “Indentures”) among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors named therein and a trustee. The Indentures contain customary affirmative and negative covenants. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally guarantee the Company’s obligations under the 2022 Senior Notes and 2025 Senior Notes. See Note 20 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for separate financial information of the subsidiary guarantors.
Refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Company’s outstanding debt as of December 31, 2017.
Contractual Obligations, Commercial Commitments and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company's contractual obligations, commercial commitments and off-balance sheet arrangement disclosures in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2017 have not materially changed since that report was filed.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Company to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. The Company's disclosures of critical accounting policies in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2017 have not materially changed since that report was filed.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The Company's disclosures of critical accounting estimates in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2017 have not materially changed since that report was filed.
New Accounting Standards
Refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of new accounting standards.
Customers and Backlog
Sales to the U.S. government comprised approximately 26% of the Company’s net sales in the first three months of fiscal 2018. No other single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s net sales for this period. A significant portion of the Company’s net sales are derived from customer orders prior to commencing production.
The Company’s backlog at December 31, 2017 increased 21.0% to $4.79 billion compared to $3.96 billion at December 31, 2016. Access equipment segment backlog increased 165.3% to $1.58 billion at December 31, 2017 compared to $594.3 million at December 31, 2016 primarily due to improved market conditions. The Company believes that improved rental market conditions have resulted in customers having greater confidence to place larger annual orders in fiscal 2018. The Company believes that in the past few fiscal years, some customers executed a more just-in time approach to orders due to their cautious view of the economy and the rental market. Defense segment backlog decreased 16.7% to $1.85 billion at December 31, 2017 compared to $2.23 billion at December 31, 2016 primarily due to performance on the large international contract for the delivery of M-ATVs. Fire & emergency segment backlog increased 9.3% to $985.1 million at December 31, 2017 compared to $901.1 million at December 31, 2016 due largely to improved demand for Pierce fire apparatus. Commercial segment backlog increased 57.5% to $373.9 million at December 31, 2017 compared to $237.4 million at December 31, 2016. Unit backlog for concrete mixers as of December 31, 2017 was up 23.5% due to a return to a more normal ordering pattern as compared to the atypical order pattern experienced in the prior year. Unit backlog for refuse collection vehicles as of December 31, 2017 was up 99.9% compared to September 30, 2016 due to improved market conditions.
Reported backlog excludes purchase options and announced orders for which definitive contracts have not been executed. Backlog information and comparisons thereof as of different dates may not be accurate indicators of future sales or the ratio of the Company’s future sales to the U.S. government versus its sales to other customers. Approximately 15% of the Company’s December 31, 2017 backlog is not expected to be filled in fiscal 2018.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company is forecasting operating income and earnings per share excluding items that affect comparability. When the Company forecasts operating income and earnings per share, excluding items, these are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes excluding the impact of these items is useful to investors to allow a more accurate comparison of the Company's operating performance to prior year results. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company's results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The table below presents a reconciliation of the Company's presented GAAP measures to the most directly comparable non-GAAP measures (in millions, except per share amounts):

(1) | On August 31, 2015, the Company's Board of Directors increased the Company's authorization to repurchase shares of the Company's Common Stock by 10,000,000 shares, taking the authorized number of shares of Common Stock available for repurchase to 10,299,198 as of that date. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had repurchased 3,534,624 shares of Common Stock under this authorization. As a result, 6,764,574 shares of Common Stock remained available for repurchase under the repurchase authorization at December 31, 2017. The Company can use this authorization at any time as there is no expiration date associated with the authorization. From time to time, the Company may enter into a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan for the purpose of repurchasing shares under this authorization. The Company did not repurchase any shares of the Company's Common Stock under this authorization during the first quarter of fiscal 2017. |
The Company intends to declare and pay dividends on a regular basis. However, the payment of future dividends is at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, future earnings and cash flows, capital requirements, the Company’s general financial condition, general business conditions and other factors. In addition, the Company's credit agreement limits the amount of dividends and other distributions, including repurchases of shares of Common Stock, the Company may pay on or after March 3, 2010 to (i) 50% of the consolidated net income of the Company and its subsidiaries (or if such consolidated net income is a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit), accrued on a cumulative basis during the period beginning on January 1, 2010 and ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of the applicable proposed dividend or distribution; plus (ii) 100% of the aggregate net proceeds received by the Company subsequent to March 3, 2010 either as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issuance and sale of its Common Stock. The Company's indentures for its senior notes due 2022 and senior notes due 2025 also contain restrictive covenants that may limit the Company's ability to repurchase shares of its Common Stock or make dividends and other types of distributions to shareholders.
