Forward-looking statements also include the assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing statements. Such forward-looking statements are made based on our management’s beliefs as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management. Our actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to, among other things, the risks set forth in Part I., Item 1A. – “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MILLER INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Miller Industries, Inc. include the accounts of all consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions and amounts have been eliminated. The results of businesses acquired or disposed of are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition or up to the date of disposal, respectively.

References to “we”, “our”, and similar pronouns in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 (this “Form 10-Q”) are to Miller Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) instructions to Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and include the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Except as disclosed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Financial results presented for this fiscal 2024 interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include accounts of certain subsidiaries whose fiscal closing dates differ from the applicable period end (December 31^st or September 30^th) by 31 days (or less) to facilitate timely reporting.

Significant Accounting Policies

A description of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements within its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency with current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results. Specifically, we reclassified $61.0 thousand and $223.0 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from the provision for common stock to non-employee directors and stock-based compensation on non-vested restricted stock units to stock-based compensation, respectively, and changed the vesting of executive restricted stock units line item to issuance of common stock, net of shares withheld for employee taxes on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

There were no new material accounting standards adopted in the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. The ASU also requires entities with a single reportable segment to provide all segment disclosures under ASC 280, including the new disclosures under this ASU. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on our disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU improve transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information


10 \| Q3 FY 2024 FORM 10-Q

Table of Contents



FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. This ASU also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not been issued or made available for issuance. We are currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on our disclosures.

2. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On May 31, 2023, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Southern Hydraulic Cylinder, Inc. through an acquisition subsidiary formed as a Tennessee corporation, which then changed its name to SHC, Inc. (“SHC”). SHC manufactures, sells, and services hydraulic cylinders and related components. The operations of SHC align with those of the Company, which management believes will strengthen the efforts to enhance the stability of the Company’s supply chain.

The purchase price totaling approximately $17.4 million was comprised of cash on hand and by drawing on the existing revolving credit facility.

The allocation of the consideration for the net assets acquired by SHC from Southern Hydraulic Cylinder, Inc. were as follows:


(in thousands)
Sources of financing:
Cash	$	17,352
Fair value of consideration transferred		17,352

Fair value of assets and liabilities:
Accounts receivable		2,245
Fixed assets		3,735
Inventory		3,467
Prepaid insurance		71
Intangibles		193
Total identifiable assets acquired		9,711

Assumed liabilities		738
Goodwill	$	8,379

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and is deductible for tax purposes. The acquisition by SHC resulted in the recognition of $8.4 million of goodwill. The Company believes goodwill is attributable to the investment for its ability to stabilize the supply chain through vertical integration, introduce automation and improve production efficiency, as well as the experienced workforce of the acquired business.

For fixed assets, the real property fair value of $3.0 million was comprised of land and buildings of $2.8 million and cranes of $0.2 million. The fair value was determined by a third-party appraisal performed using a sales comparison approach and income approach. The net book value of $0.7 million was determined to approximate fair market value for the remaining fixed assets.

Identifiable intangible assets consisted of a restrictive covenant agreement of $25.0 thousand and order backlog of $168.0 thousand. The fair value of intangible assets was determined by a third-party valuation. The restrictive covenant agreement and order backlog were valued using the income approach, specifically the with-or-without method and multi-period excess earnings method, respectively.

The fair value of the assets acquired included trade receivables of $2.2 million that were not purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The Company did not have any markdowns of trade receivables or corresponding credit losses.

The results of operations of SHC are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income since the acquisition date. Transaction costs associated with the acquisition were not significant.

Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information (Unaudited)

The results of operations for SHC, and the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, SHC contributed approximately $2.0 million to the Company’s revenues and increased pretax income by approximately $0.3 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, SHC contributed approximately $6.2 million to the Company’s revenues and increased pretax income

5. LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS

Credit Facility

The Company’s loan agreement with First Horizon Bank, which governs its $100.0 million amended unsecured revolving credit facility with a maturity date of May 31, 2027, contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, and financial, affirmative, and negative covenants for loan agreements of this kind. The credit facility restricts the payment of cash dividends if the payment would cause the Company to be in violation of the minimum tangible net worth test or the leverage ratio test in the loan agreement, among various other customary covenants. In the absence of default, all borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at the one-month Term SOFR Rate plus 1.00% or 1.25% per annum.

We were in compliance with all covenants under the credit facility throughout 2023 and the first nine months of 2024. The Company pays a quarterly non-usage fee under the current loan agreement at a rate per annum equal to between 0.15% and 0.35% of the unused amount of the credit facility.

For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, interest expense on the credit facility was $1.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, interest expense on the credit facility was $3.2 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The Company had outstanding borrowings of $65.0 million and $60.0 million under the credit facility as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

6. INCOME TAXES

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had no federal net operating loss carryforwards. State net operating loss carryforwards were $8.9 million as of December 31, 2023.

7. LEASES

We have lease agreements for equipment and facilities under long-term, non-cancelable leases. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception by evaluating whether the arrangement conveys the right to use an identified asset and whether we obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from and have the ability to direct the use of the asset. Our lease agreements generally do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, current operating lease liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease right-of-use assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term, plus payments made prior to lease commencement and any initial direct costs. Operating lease expense for operating lease assets is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

We also have elected to apply a practical expedient for short-term leases whereby we do not recognize a lease liability or a right-of-use asset for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company recognizes short-term leases on a straight-line basis and does not record a related right-of-use asset or lease obligation for such contracts. Our leases have remaining lease terms that expire at various dates through 2029. Some of our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease, and the Company includes those leases when it is reasonably certain we will exercise that option.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had commitments of approximately $15.4 million and $8.6 million, respectively, for construction and acquisition of property, plant and equipment. During the first three quarters of 2024, the Company continued its investments in automation and the use of robotics in its production processes to streamline efficiency. In addition, the Company migrated its enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to a multi-tenant cloud environment in 2021 and is continuing to implement additional modules such as enterprise performance management, human capital management, cybersecurity, data analytics, and the use of closed-loop artificial intelligence. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had commitments related to the continuing implementation project of approximately $0.5 million and $1.4 million in software license fees, respectively, payable in installments through 2025.

Contingencies

The Company has entered into arrangements with third-party lenders where it has agreed to repurchase products that are repossessed from the independent distributor customer in the event of default. These arrangements are typically subject to a maximum repurchase amount. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023, the maximum amount of collateral the Company could be required to purchase was $161.8 million and $128.7 million, respectively. The Company’s financial exposure under these arrangements is limited to the difference between the amount paid to third-party lenders for repurchases of inventory and the amount received upon subsequent resale of the repossessed product. The Company had no repurchases of inventory during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023 and concluded the liability associated with potential repurchase obligations was neither probable, nor material.

Litigation

We are subject to a variety of claims and lawsuits that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. The Company has established accruals for matters that are probable and reasonably estimable, and maintains product liability and other insurance that management believes to be adequate. Although management believes that any pending claims and lawsuits will not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations, the adjudication of such matters is subject to inherent uncertainties and management’s assessment may change depending on future events.

9. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

2016 Stock Incentive Plan

In August, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”), subject to shareholder approval. The 2016 Plan was subsequently approved by the shareholders of the Company at its annual meeting of shareholders on May 26, 2017. Pursuant to the 2016 Plan, the Company may grant up to 800,000 shares of common stock under share-based awards to officers, directors, and employees, as well as consultants or advisors who provide services to the Company or a subsidiary. The 2016 Plan provides for the issuance of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock awards, performance shares, performance units, and other stock-based awards or any combination thereof. The 2016 Plan will terminate on August 1, 2026.

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock units, once granted, are subject only to time-based service conditions. Executive officer awards vest ratably over three to five years (depending on award granted) and non-employee director awards cliff-vest after one year.

Stock Repurchase Program

On April 2, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the Company to purchase up to $25.0 million of the Company’s common stock with no expiration date (the “Repurchase Program”). Repurchases under the Repurchase Program may be made on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, block purchases, or otherwise as permitted by the federal securities laws and other legal and contractual requirements and are expected to comply with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The number of shares to be repurchased and the timing of any repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including share price, economic and market conditions, and corporate requirements, among others. The Company may choose to suspend or discontinue the Repurchase Program at any time. The cost of the shares repurchased will be funded from our available cash and temporary investments and borrowings under our credit facility.

For accounting purposes, common stock repurchased under the Repurchase Program is recorded based upon the settlement date of the applicable trade. During the three months ended September 30, 2024 the Company repurchased 14,500 shares of common stock pursuant to the Repurchase Program. The total cost of the shares repurchased during the quarter was $0.9 million with an average price of $58.67. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 the Company repurchased 49,500 shares of common stock pursuant to the Repurchase Program. The total cost of the shares repurchased during the nine-month period was $2.9 million with an average share price of $58.58. All repurchased shares constitute authorized but unissued shares.

10. REVENUE

All of our operating revenue is generated from contracts with customers. Our primary source of revenue is generated from sales of towing and recovery equipment. Because our product lines have substantially similar characteristics, the Company has identified one operating segment regularly reviewed to assess performance and allocate resources. Alternatively, the Company uses a geographic approach to track revenues by geographic regions.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially expose us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and temporary investments and trade accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had cash deposited net of outstanding checks of $40.6 million and $29.9 million, respectively, held in multiple high-credit quality financial institutions. We attempt to limit our credit risk associated with accounts receivable by performing ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and maintaining adequate allowances for potential credit losses.

No single customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenues for the three months or nine months ended September 30, 2024 or the comparable periods in 2023.

As of September 30, 2024, there was one customer with a trade accounts receivable of 11.0% of the Company’s total trade receivable. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2023.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to provide a summary from the perspective of management on our consolidated operating results, financial condition, liquidity, and cash flows of our Company as of and for the periods presented.

The MD&A should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included herein.

To facilitate timely reporting, the condensed consolidated financial statements include accounts of certain subsidiaries whose closing dates differ from the applicable period end (December 31^st or September 30^th) by 31 days (or less).

References to “the Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” are intended to mean the business and operations of Miller Industries, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise.

ABOUT MILLER INDUSTRIES, INC.

Miller Industries, Inc. is The World’s Largest Manufacturer of Towing and Recovery Equipment^®, with domestic manufacturing operations in Tennessee and Pennsylvania, and foreign manufacturing operations in France and the United Kingdom.

We develop and manufacture innovative high-quality towing and recovery equipment worldwide. We design and manufacture bodies of car carriers and wreckers, which are installed on chassis manufactured by third parties and then sold to our customers under our Century®, Vulcan®, Chevron™, Holmes®, Challenger®, Champion®, Jige™, Boniface™, Titan®, and Eagle® brand names.

Our products are primarily marketed and sold through a network of distributors that serve all 50 states, Canada, Mexico and other foreign markets, and through prime contractors to governmental entities. Furthermore, we have substantial distribution capabilities in Europe as a result of our ownership of Jige International S.A. and Boniface Engineering, Ltd. While most of our distributor agreements do not generally contain exclusivity provisions, management believes our independent distributors do not offer products of any other towing and recovery equipment manufacturer. We believe this is a testament of their loyalty to our brands.

In addition to selling our products, our independent distributors provide end-users with parts and service. We also utilize sales representatives to inform prospective end-users about our current product lines in an effort to drive sales to independent distributors. Management believes the strength of our distribution network and the breadth and quality of our product offerings are two key advantages over our competitors.

We focus on a variety of key indicators to monitor our overall operating and financial performance. These indicators include measurements of revenue, operating income, gross margin, net income, earnings per share, capital expenditures, and cash flow.

Our history of innovation in the towing and recovery industry has been an important factor behind our growth over the last decade and we believe that our continued emphasis on research and development will be a key factor in our future growth. We opened a free-standing research and development facility in Chattanooga in 2019, where we pursue various innovations in our products and manufacturing processes, some of which are intended to enhance the safety of our employees and reduce our environmental impact. Our investments in strategic and planned projects have contributed to our increased production capacity and optimized our manufacturing processes, including investing in component re-design capabilities that allow for more flexibility in our manufacturing and sourcing. Our recent domestic plant expansion and modernization projects have installed sophisticated robotics systems and other advanced technologies to complement our talented workforce. The projects completed during the period from 2017 to 2021 were at a cost of over $82 million. As we continue to focus on modernization and operational excellence, we expect to continue to invest in robotics and automated material handling equipment across all our domestic manufacturing facilities.

We completed phase one of the implementation of an enterprise software solution during 2021, and we are continuing to implement additional functionality available in the solution. We expect this software to substantially improve our administrative efficiency and customer service levels throughout the company.

TRENDS AND OTHER FACTORS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS

During the first three quarters of 2024, our strong backlog allowed revenues to increase as a result of the actions we took to diversify and increase the flexibility of our supply chain, as well as the increased availability of parts and components due to global supply chain improvements. Gross margin also slightly improved over the prior year’s average due to our pricing actions, productivity improvements, and the stabilizing of raw material costs. The combination of favorable macroeconomic trends and improved productivity resulted in increased net income for the period.


18 \| Q3 FY 2024 FORM 10-Q

Table of Contents


MD&A

Based on our strong backlog, price increases, and productivity improvements we have implemented, lessening supply chain disruptions and easing inflationary pressures, our operating results improved throughout fiscal 2023 and through the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and we believe we are well-positioned to continue enhancing our operating results. However, our performance will be heavily influenced by, among other things, supply chain constraints, inflationary pressures, the continuing impact of geopolitical factors, the threat of recession, and general economic factors. The impact of these factors remains largely out of our control, and we currently anticipate that these factors could have an adverse impact on our production capabilities, financial results, and cash flows through the remainder of 2024.

In the second quarter of 2023, the Company acquired the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Southern Hydraulic Cylinder, Inc., which manufactures hydraulic cylinders and related components used in the production of our small carrier units. Management believes this acquisition will strengthen its efforts to enhance the stability of the Company’s supply chain.

During the last week of the third quarter of 2024, the Company experienced delays in delivery of finished goods from its Tennessee facilities due to the effects of Hurricane Helene. While our facilities sustained no physical damage, we did experience a two-week disruption to production at our Greeneville, Tennessee location due to utility outages.

The impacts of the current global supply chain disruptions, inflationary environment, geopolitical tensions, and other macroeconomic factors have led to foreign currency fluctuations. The impact of inflationary or deflationary pressures have caused and may continue to cause foreign currency translation gains or losses within our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require us to make estimates. Certain accounting policies are deemed “critical”, as they require management’s highest degree of judgment, estimations, and assumptions. The accounting policies deemed to be most critical to our financial position and results of operations are those related to accounts receivable, inventory, long-lived assets, warranty reserves, revenues, and income taxes. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from the information provided under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies and Sensitive Accounting Estimates” in Part II., Item 7. – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $314.3 million compared to $274.6 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, an increase of 14.5%. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by increases in original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) chassis deliveries over the prior year period.

Net foreign sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $27.7 million compared to $31.9 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, a decrease of 13.0%.

MD&A

Cost of Operations

Cost of operations includes the direct cost of manufacturing, including direct materials, labor and related factory overhead, physical inventory adjustments, as well as inbound and outbound freight. Cost of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $272.2 million compared to $231.7 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, an increase of 17.5%. The increase in cost of operations was primarily attributed to increased OEM chassis deliveries during the quarter.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is equal to net sales less cost of operations. Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $42.0 million compared to $42.9 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, a decrease of 2.0%. This decrease was primarily due to increased sales of chassis which put downward pressure on our overall margin.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $22.3 million compared to $19.3 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, an increase of 15.6%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to additional executive compensation expense and incentives for all employees, including training and more competitive compensation to improve employee retention, and, to a lesser extent, due to increased investor relations activity during the quarter. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 7.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from 7.0% for the comparable period in fiscal 2023.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $0.3 million compared to $1.8 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, a decrease of 86.2%. Interest expense was consistent with the comparable period in 2023, offset by increased interest income billed on open accounts receivable balances.

Other (Income) Expense

The Company is exposed to foreign currency transaction risk when the Company has transactions that are denominated in a currency other than its functional currency. When the related balance sheet items are remeasured in the functional currency of the Company, gains and losses are recorded through other (income) expense. Other (income) expense, net is composed primarily of these foreign currency exchange gains and losses. The Company experienced a net foreign currency exchange gain of $0.3 million and loss of $0.02 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Other (income) expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was de minimus.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 reflects a combined federal, state, and foreign tax rate of 22.0% and 20.8%, respectively. The principal differences between the federal statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate consist primarily of state taxes, domestic tax credits, and tax differences on foreign earnings.

MD&A

Net Sales

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $1.04 billion compared to $857.1 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, an increase of 20.8%. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by increases in production volume due to supply chain improvements and continued strong customer demand.

Net foreign sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $89.8 million compared to $83.9 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, an increase of 7.0%.

Cost of Operations

Cost of operations includes the direct cost of manufacturing, including direct materials, labor and related factory overhead, physical inventory adjustments, as well as inbound and outbound freight. Cost of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $898.2 million compared to $743.9 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, an increase of 20.7%. The increase in cost of operations was primarily attributed to increased deliveries resulting from continued stabilization in our supply chain.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is equal to net sales less cost of operations. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $137.3 million compared to $113.2 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, an increase of 21.3%. Gross profit as a percentage of sales remained consistent at approximately 13.2% for the period ending September 30, 2024 and 2023.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $66.6 million compared to $56.7 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, an increase of 17.5%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to additional executive compensation expense and incentives for all employees, including training and more competitive compensation to improve employee retention, and, to a lesser extent, due to increased investor relations activity. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 6.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from 6.6% for the comparable period in fiscal 2023.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $3.5 million compared to $4.5 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2023, a decrease of 21.7%. Interest expense was consistent with the comparable period in 2023, offset by increased interest income billed on open accounts receivable balances during the current year.

Other (Income) Expense

The Company is exposed to foreign currency transaction risk when the Company has transactions that are denominated in a currency other than its functional currency. When the related balance sheet items are remeasured in the functional currency of the Company, gains and losses are recorded through other (income) expense. Other (income) expense, net is composed primarily of these foreign currency exchange gains and losses. The Company experienced a net foreign currency exchange gain of $0.2 million and gain of $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Other (income) expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 includes $0.2 million of other income.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 reflects a combined federal, state, and foreign tax rate of 21.5% and 21.2%, respectively. The principal differences between the federal statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate consist primarily of state taxes, domestic tax credits, and tax differences on foreign earnings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We currently believe that, based on available capital resources and projected operating cash flows, we have adequate capital resources to fund our operations and expected future cash needs over the next 12 months. However, our ability to satisfy our cash needs will substantially depend upon a number of factors, including our future operating performance, and the economic, regulatory, and other factors discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, many of which are beyond our control.

MD&A

Cash and Temporary Investments

As of September 30, 2024, we had cash and temporary investments of $40.6 million, and $35.0 million in available borrowings under our credit facility. Our primary cash requirements include working capital, capital expenditures, the funding of any declared cash dividends, purchases pursuant to our stock repurchase program, and principal and interest payments on indebtedness.

The cash and temporary investments balance as of September 30, 2024 included $17.8 million of cash held by subsidiaries outside of the United States.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the period:


	Nine Months Ended
	September 30
(in thousands)		2024		2023	Change
Operating activities	$	28,589	$	4,213	578.6	%
Investing activities		(13,984)		(27,508)	49.2	%
Financing activities		(4,446)		8,822	(150.4)	%
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and temporary investments		532		1,167	(54.4)	%
Net increase (decrease) in cash and temporary investments	$	10,691	$	(13,306)	180.3	%

Changes in working capital, which impact operating cash flows, can vary significantly depending on factors such as the timing of customer payments, inventory purchases and payments to vendors, and tax payments in the regular course of business.

Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash provided by operating activities was $28.6 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $4.2 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2023. Cash provided by operating activities is generally attributable to the receipt of payments from our customers as settlement of their contractual obligation once we have fulfilled all performance obligations related to our contracts with them. These cash receipts are netted with payments for purchases of inventory, payments for materials used in manufacturing, and other payments that are necessary in the ordinary course of our operations, such as those for utilities and taxes. The change in operating activities is due to increased net income that was offset primarily by increased accounts receivable as a result of the timing of OEM chassis deliveries, as well as other major components, creating an installation backlog throughout our distribution network and delays in completion of the retail product.

Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, cash used in investing activities was $14.0 million compared to cash used in investing activities of $27.5 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2023. The cash used in investing activities was primarily for purchases of property, plant and equipment as we continue to invest in manufacturing automation and ERP system enhancements. The prior year included $17.8 million for the acquisition by SHC which was adjusted down by $0.4 million as of June 30, 2024 as a result of the final valuation adjustment.

Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, cash used in financing activities was $4.4 million compared to cash provided by financing activities of $8.8 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2023. The cash used in financing activities was primarily due to cash payments for dividends and repurchase of common stock, offset by an advance on the credit facility.

Contractual Obligations

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had commitments of approximately $15.4 million and $8.6 million, respectively, for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment and commitments of approximately $0.5 million in software license fees related to the implementation of our enterprise software solution. This increase in commitments for acquisition of property, plant and equipment was due to our continued investments in automation and the use of robotics in our production processes to streamline efficiency. There have been no other material changes to our contractual obligations from what was previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Other Long-Term Obligations

Prior to applying a discount rate to our lease liabilities, we had approximately $0.6 million and $0.9 million in non-cancelable operating lease obligations as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. We had no non-cancelable finance lease obligations as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were $14.1 million and $9.7 million, respectively. We make ongoing capital investments in our property, plant and equipment to increase our production capacity and the efficiencies, as well as the sustainability and safety of our operations. This includes capital investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 in the use of robotics and automation in our production processes to streamline efficiency. See “Cash Flows” – “Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities” contained within this MD&A for additional discussion on capital expenditures.

First Amended and Restated Change in Control Severance Plan

On November 10, 2024, the Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) approved the First Amended and Restated Change in Control Severance Plan (as amended, the “Amended Plan”), which provides for certain changes to the Company’s existing Change in Control Severance Plan. In connection with the adoption of the Amended Plan, the Compensation Committee determined that only the following seven senior executive officers of the Company will be eligible to participate in the Amended Plan: (i) William G. Miller II, President and Chief Executive Officer, (ii) Deborah L. Whitmire, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, (iii) William G. Miller, Executive Chairman of the Board, (iv) Jeffrey Badgley, President of International and Military, (v) Josias W. Reyneke, Vice President and Chief Information Officer, (vi) Vincent Tiano, Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer and (vii) Frank Madonia, Executive Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel.

The Compensation Committee adopted the changes to the existing plan to enhance executive retention and better align the interests of the Company’s senior executive team with shareholders in connection with any change in control of the Company. In particular, the Amended Plan increased the payout multiples of base salary and annual cash bonus for (i) Mr. Miller II to 2.99x from 2.0x, (ii) Ms. Whitmire and Mr.

Table of Contes



OTHER KEY INFORMATION

Miller, to 2.5x from 1.5x, and (iii) the remainder of the Company’s seven current senior executive officers participating in the Amended Plan to 2.0x from 1.0x. Based in part upon guidance from Pearl Meyer & Partners, LLC (“Pearl Meyer”), the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant, the Compensation Committee believes that the multiples are within reasonable market levels for change in control related severance benefits and further reflects the Company’s senior executive team’s efforts in driving the substantial increase in shareholder valuation of the Company over the last several years.

The Amended Plan provides that plan participants will be entitled to their applicable payouts on the first to occur of either (i) a change in control, provided that such participants have committed to continue working for the Company for a period of at least one year after the conclusion of the change in control transaction at the same rate of total compensation as such executive(s) received for the year in which the change in control occurred and in such role and capacity as reasonably determined by the buyer in the change in control transaction or (ii) termination of employment by the Company without “cause” or by the executive with “good reason”, each as defined in the Amended Plan.

The Amended Plan also provides for the following treatment of unvested time-based and performance-based equity awards (if granted in the future) upon the applicable triggering event:

●

Time-Based Vesting Awards: Time-based equity awards would vest fully upon the triggering event.

●

Performance-Based Vesting Awards: Performance-based equity awards would vest at the greater of actual and target at the time of the triggering event.

The Compensation Committee, in consultation with Pearl Meyer, believes these changes will (i) better align interests of the executive team with those of the Company’s shareholders in evaluating any potential change in control transaction and (ii) provide the executive team with certainty that their contributions over the years that resulted in substantial increases in shareholder value will be recognized with a change in control transaction where investors also derive premium valuations. The latter is a unique consideration for the Company given the limited use of equity-based compensation prior to 2022 which results in the executive team having lower levels of stock ownership and therefore lower realized value from any transaction.

The Amended Plan also amends the definition of a “change in control” to include a 50% change in the incumbent members of the Board (with the “Incumbent Board” defined under the Amended Plan as the current board of directors of the Company and those directors elected or nominated for election by a majority of the current board of directors of the Company). The Amended Plan further provides that a director seated on the Board after the date hereof as a result of a proxy fight will always be considered a non-incumbent director on the Board, even if a majority of the directors approve of such director.

In addition, the Amended Plan amends the definition of “good reason” to (i) include a change in title or reporting relationship for the executive, (ii) eliminate the ability of the Company to make across-the-board reductions affecting similarly situated executives without triggering “good cause”, (iii) include a material reduction to any material element of the executive’s compensation, and (iv) decrease the relocation radius that would trigger “good cause” from 50 miles to 25 miles.

The Amended Plan has been revised to provide that it cannot be amended or terminated in any manner that would reduce benefits to a participant without the participant’s express written consent, except to the minimum extent required to comply with any applicable law.

The foregoing description of the terms of the Amended Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended Plan, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

Securities Trading Plans of Directors and Executive Officers

During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, no director or officer of the Company adopted, modified, or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement”, as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2024
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements of Miller Industries, Inc. include the accounts of all consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions and amounts have been eliminated. The results of businesses acquired or disposed of are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition or up to the date of disposal, respectively. References to “we”, “our”, and similar pronouns in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 (this “Form 10-Q”) are to Miller Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise. Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) instructions to Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and include the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Except as disclosed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Financial results presented for this fiscal 2024 interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The condensed consolidated financial statements include accounts of certain subsidiaries whose fiscal closing dates differ from the applicable period end (December 31^st or September 30^th) by 31 days (or less) to facilitate timely reporting.
Significant Accounting Policies	Significant Accounting Policies A description of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements within its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency with current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results. Specifically, we reclassified $61.0 thousand and $223.0 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from the provision for common stock to non-employee directors and stock-based compensation on non-vested restricted stock units to stock-based compensation, respectively, and changed the vesting of executive restricted stock units line item to issuance of common stock, net of shares withheld for employee taxes on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards and Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Adopted Accounting Standards There were no new material accounting standards adopted in the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. The ASU also requires entities with a single reportable segment to provide all segment disclosures under ASC 280, including the new disclosures under this ASU. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on our disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU improve transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. This ASU also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not been issued or made available for issuance. We are currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on our disclosures.
