Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE A. OVERVIEW
Overview
Allison Transmission Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Allison” or the “Company”) design and manufacture vehicle propulsion solutions, including commercial-duty on-highway, off-highway and defense fully automatic transmissions and electric hybrid and fully electric systems. The business was founded in 1915 and has been headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana since inception. Allison was an operating unit of General Motors Corporation from 1929 until 2007, when Allison once again became a stand-alone company. In March 2012, Allison began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol, “ALSN”.
Although approximately 79 % of revenues were generated in North America in 2020, the Company has a global presence by serving customers in Europe, Asia, South America and Africa. The Company serves customers through an independent network of approximately 1,400 independent distributor and dealer locations worldwide.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") as a pandemic. In the third quarter of 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to cause supply chain, labor and raw material constraints that created volatility in the Company’s business performance and impacted global markets and supply chains. As a result, the Company has experienced, and expects to continue to experience, raw material and component part price inflation, increased freight and logistics costs and increased overtime expense as a result of labor shortages. In addition, despite increased customer demand the Company’s net sales were negatively impacted as a result of its customers’ inability to secure components from the broader commercial vehicle supply base which resulted in reduced commercial vehicle build schedules.
To limit the spread of COVID-19, governments continue to take various actions including the administration or mandate of vaccinations, travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, curfews, stay-at-home orders, social distancing guidelines and business shutdowns and closures. The Company is also continuing to take a variety of measures to promote the safety and security of its employees and to maintain operations with as minimal impact as possible to its stakeholders, and as a result, the Company has been able to continue its manufacturing operations and deliver its products to customers.
NOTE B. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The information herein reflects all normal recurring material adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements herein consist of all wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries with all significant intercompany transactions eliminated.

Table of Contents
These condensed consolidated financial statements present the financial position, results of compreh ensive income, cash flows and statements of stockholders’ equity of the Company. Certain immaterial reclassifications have been made in the condensed consolidated financial statements of prior periods to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net income, total stockholders’ equity or cash flows. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the Secur ities and Exchange Commission on February 18 , 20 2 1 . The interim period financial results for the three - and nine - month period s presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Estimates include, but are not limited to, sales allowances, government price adjustments, fair market values and future cash flows associated with goodwill, indefinite life intangibles, definite life intangibles, long-lived asset impairment tests, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, warranty liabilities, environmental liabilities, determination of discount rate and other assumptions for pension and other post-retirement benefit expense, determination of discount rate and period for leases, income taxes and deferred tax valuation allowances, derivative valuation, assumptions for business combinations and contingencies. The Company’s accounting policies involve the application of judgments and assumptions made by management that include inherent risks and uncertainties. Due to the continued uncertainty related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, actual results could differ materially from the estimates and assumptions used in preparation of the financial statements including, but not limited to, future cash flows associated with goodwill, indefinite life intangibles, definite life intangibles, long-lived impairment tests, determination of discount rate and other assumptions for pension and other post-retirement benefit expense and income taxes. Changes in estimates are recorded in results of operations in the period that the events or circumstances giving rise to such changes occur.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative accounting guidance regarding highly effective cash flow hedges affected by reference rate reform, which guidance was subsequently amended. The guidance allows the Company to continue to classify its interest rate hedges as highly effective subsequent to reference rate reform under certain circumstances. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2021 and will apply the guidance prospectively on all applicable transactions through December 31, 2022. Management expects to be able to elect the optional expedient within this guidance upon the Company’s transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to an alternative reference rate. The election of the optional expedient is expected to allow for the continuation of the existing contract with no impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued authoritative accounting guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance identifies specific exceptions to be removed from the calculation and reporting of income taxes. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2021 . The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE C. REVENUE
Revenue is recognized as each distinct performance obligation within a contract is satisfied. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. The Company enters into long-term agreements (“LTAs”) and distributor agreements with certain customers. The LTAs and distributor agreements do not include committed volumes until underlying purchase orders are issued; therefore, the Company determined that purchase orders are the contract with a customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied, as there is no right of return.
Some of the Company's contracts include multiple performance obligations, most commonly the sale of both a transmission and extended transmission coverage ("ETC"). The Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract.
The Company may also use volume-based discounts and rebates as marketing incentives in the sales of both transmissions and service parts, which are accounted for as variable consideration. The Company records the impact of the incentives as a reduction to revenue when it is determined that the adjustment is not likely to reverse, historically on a quarterly basis. The Company estimates the impact of all other incentives based on the related sales and market conditions in the end market vocation. The Company recorded no material adjustments based on variable consideration during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.
Net sales are made on credit terms, generally 30 days, based on an assessment of the customer’s creditworthiness. For certain goods or services, the Company receives consideration prior to satisfying the related performance obligation. Such consideration is recorded as a contract liability in current and non-current Deferred revenue as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. See Note J, “Deferred Revenue” for more information, including the amount of revenue earned during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 that had been previously deferred. The Company had no material contract assets as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
The Company has one operating segment and reportable segment. The Company is in one line of business, which is the manufacture and distribution of vehicle propulsion solutions. The following presents disaggregated revenue by categories that best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors (dollars in millions):

NOTE F. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In accordance with the FASB’s authoritative accounting guidance on fair value measurements, fair value is the price (exit price) that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company primarily applies the market approach for recurring fair value measurements and utilizes the best available information that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The Company is able to classify fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by the relevant guidance are as follows:
Level 1 — Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, listed equities and publicly traded bonds.
Level 2 — Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. Level 2 includes financial instruments that are valued using quoted prices in markets that are not active and those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.
Level 3 — Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value. At each balance sheet date, the Company performs an analysis of all instruments subject to authoritative accounting guidance and includes, in Level 3, all of those whose fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company did no t have any Level 3 financial assets or liabilities.
The Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value include cash equivalents, derivative instruments, assets held in a rabbi trust and a deferred compensation obligation. The Company’s cash equivalents consist of short-term U.S. government backed securities. The Company’s derivative instruments consist of interest rate swaps. The Company’s assets held in the rabbi trust consist principally of publicly available mutual funds and target date retirement funds. The Company’s deferred compensation obligation is directly related to the fair value of assets held in the rabbi trust.
The Company’s valuation techniques used to calculate the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, assets held in the rabbi trust and the deferred compensation obligation represent a market approach in active markets for identical assets that qualify as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s valuation techniques used to calculate the fair value of derivative instruments represent a market approach with observable inputs that qualify as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
The Company uses valuations from the issuing financial institutions for the fair value measurement of interest rate swaps. The floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps are based on LIBOR, which is observable at commonly quoted intervals. The fair values are included in other current and non-current assets and liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $ 2,533 million of indebtedness associated with Allison Transmission, Inc.’s (“ATI”), the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, 4.75 % Senior Notes due October 2027 (“4.75% Senior Notes”), ATI’s 5.875 % Senior Notes due June 2029 (“5.875% Senior Notes”), ATI’s 3.75% Senior Notes due January 2031 (“3.75% Senior Notes” and, together with the 4.75% Senior Notes and 5.875% Senior Notes, the “Senior Notes”) and the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 29, 2019, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”), governing ATI’s term loan facility in the amount of $ 633 million due March 2026 (“Term Loan”) and ATI’s revolving credit facility with commitments in the amount of $ 650 million due September 2025 (“Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Term Loan, the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”).
The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt obligations as of September 30, 2021 was $ 2,567 million. The fair value is based on quoted Level 2 market prices of the Company’s debt as of September 30, 2021. It is not expected that the Company would be able to repurchase a significant amount of its debt at these levels. The difference between the fair value and carrying value of the long-term debt is driven primarily by trends in the financial markets.
Senior Secured Credit Facility
In November 2020, the Company and ATI entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement to increase the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility by $ 50 million to $ 650 million. The amendment also extended the Revolving Credit Facility termination date from September 2024 to September 2025 .
The borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are collateralized by a lien on substantially all assets of the Company, ATI and each of the existing and future U.S. subsidiary guarantors, with certain exceptions set forth in the Credit Agreement, and ATI’s capital stock and all of the capital stock or other equity interests held by the Company, ATI and each of ATI’s existing and future U.S. subsidiary guarantors (subject to certain limitations for
13
Table of Contents
equity interest of foreign subsidiaries and other exceptions set forth in the Credit Agreement). Interest on the Term Loan, as of September 30, 2021 , is either (a) 1.75 % over a LIBOR rate on deposits in U.S. dollars for one-, two-, three- or six -month periods (or twelve-month or shorter periods if, at the time of the borrowing, available from all relevant lenders) (the "LIBOR Rate"), or (b) 0.75 % over the greater of the prime lending rate as quoted by the administrative agent, the LIBOR R ate for an interest period of one month plus 1.00 % and the federal funds effective rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York plus 0.50 %, subject to a 1.00 % floor (the "Base Rate"). As of September 30, 2021 , the Company elected to pay the lowest all-in rate of LIBOR plus the applicable margin, or 1.83 %, on the Term Loan. The Credit Agreement requires minimum quarter ly principal payments on the Term Loan, as well as prepayments from certain net cash proceeds of non-ordinary course asset sales and casualty and condemnation events, the incurrence of certain debt and from a percentage of excess cash flow, if applicable. The minimum required quarte rly principal payment on the Term Loan through its maturity date of March 2026 is $ 2 million. As of September 30, 2021 , there had been no payments required for certain net cash proceeds of non-ordinary course asset sales and casualty and condemnation events. The remaining principal balance is due upon maturity.
The Senior Secured Credit Facility also provides a Revolving Credit Facility, net of an allowance for up to $ 75 million in outstanding letters of credit commitments. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $ 645 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of $ 5 million in letters of credit. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a variable base rate plus an applicable margin based on the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio. When the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio is above 4.00 x, interest on the Revolving Credit Facility is (a) 0.75 % over the Base Rate or (b) 1.75 % over the LIBOR Rate; when the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio is equal to or less than 4.00 x and above 3.50 x, interest on the Revolving Credit Facility is (i) 0.50 % over the Base Rate or (ii) 1.50 % over the LIBOR Rate; and when the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio is equal to or below 3.50 x, interest on the Revolving Credit Facility is (y) 0.25 % over the Base Rate or (z) 1.25 % over the LIBOR Rate. As of September 30, 2021, the applicable margin for the Revolving Credit Facility was 1.25 %. In addition, there is an annual commitment fee, based on the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio, on the average unused revolving credit borrowings available under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2021, the commitment fee is 0.25 %. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are payable at the option of the Company throughout the term of the Senior Secured Credit Facility with the balance due in September 2025.
The Senior Secured Credit Facility requires the Company to maintain a specified maximum first lien net leverage ratio of 5.50 x when revolving loan commitments remain outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility at the end of a fiscal quarter. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility; however, the Company would have been in compliance with the maximum first lien net leverage ratio, achieving a 0.46 x ratio. Additionally, within the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facility, a first lien net leverage ratio at or below 4.00 x results in the elimination of excess cash flow payments on the Senior Secured Credit Facility for the applicable year.
In addition, the Credit Agreement, among other things, includes customary restrictions (subject to certain exceptions) on the Company’s ability to incur certain indebtedness, grant certain liens, make certain investments, engage in acquisitions, consolidations and mergers, declare or pay certain dividends or repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock. As of September 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

3.75% Senior Notes
In November 2020, ATI completed an offering of $ 1,000 million of the 3.75 % Senior Notes. The 3.75% Senior Notes were offered in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand, were used to redeem all of ATI’s outstanding 5.0% Senior Notes due 2024 plus accrued and unpaid interest and related transaction expenses. As a result of the offering, the Company recorded $ 10 million as deferred financing fees in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020.
The 3.75 % Senior Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed by each of ATI’s domestic subsidiaries that is a borrower under or guarantees the Senior Secured Credit Facility and are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by any of ATI’s future domestic subsidiaries that are borrowers under or guarantee the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

NOTE H. DERIVATIVES
The Company is subject to interest rate risk related to the Senior Secured Credit Facility and enters into interest rate swaps that are based on LIBOR to manage a portion of this exposure. The interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges that qualify for hedge accounting under the hypothetical derivative method. Fair value adjustments are recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax (“AOCL”) in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Balances in AOCL are reclassified to earnings when transactions related to the underlying risk are settled. As of September 30, 2021, the Company held interest rate swaps effective from September 2019 to September 2025 with notional values totaling $ 250 million and a weighted average LIBOR fixed rate of 3.04 %, interest rate swaps effective from September 2019 to September 2022 with notional values totaling $ 250 million and a weighted average LIBOR fixed rate of 3.01 % and interest rate swaps effective from September 2022 to September 2025 with notional values totaling $ 250 million and a weighted average LIBOR fixed rate of 2.82 %. See NOTE F, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” for information regarding the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps.

NOTE K. LEASES
Contracts are assessed by the Company to determine if the contract conveys the right to control an identified asset in exchange for consideration during a period of time. The Company classifies all identified leases as either operating or finance leases. As of September 30, 2021, the Company was not a party to any finance leases. Contracts that contain leases are assessed to determine if the consideration in the contract is related to a lease component, non-lease component or other components not related to the lease. Lease components are recorded as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities while any non-lease component is expensed as incurred. The consideration in the contract related to other components not related to the lease is allocated among the lease component and the non-lease component, as applicable, based on the stand-alone selling price of the lease and non-lease components.
Certain lease contracts may contain an option to extend or terminate the lease. The Company considers the economic impact of extension and termination options by contract. If the Company concludes it is reasonably certain an option will be exercised, that option is included in the lease term and impacts the amount recorded as an ROU asset and lease liability at inception of the contract.
The Company's lease liability is determined by discounting the future cash flows over the lease period. The Company determines its discount rates utilizing current secured financing rates based on the length of the lease period plus the Company's margin over LIBOR on the Term Loan. The Company believes this rate effectively represents a borrowing rate the Company could obtain on a debt instrument possessing similar terms as the lease. Any lease liability is classified between current and non-current liabilities based on the terms of the underlying leases. The weighted average discount rate on operating leases as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was 4.36 % and 4.37 %, respectively.
As of September 30, 2021, the Company recorded current and non-current operating lease liabilities of $ 4 million and $ 14 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, the Company recorded current and non-current operating lease liabilities of $ 4 million and $ 17 million, respectively. The following table reconciles future undiscounted cash flows for operating leases as of September 30, 2021 to total operating lease liabilities:

Operating lease expense was $ 1 million in each of the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 and $ 4 million in each of the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and was recorded within Selling, general and administrative expense and Engineering - research and development on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. There was no material short-term operating lease expense for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.
The calculation of the Company's ROU assets and lease liabilities did not include cash consideration as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded $ 1 million and $ 2 million, respectively, of new ROU assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations.

NOTE N. INCOME TAXES
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded total income tax expense of $ 30 million and $ 94 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was 24 % and 22 %, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded total income tax expense of $ 21 million and $ 70 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 21 % and 23 %, respectively.
The need to establish a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets is assessed periodically based on a more-likely-than-not realization threshold, in accordance with authoritative accounting guidance. Appropriate consideration is given to all positive and negative evidence related to that realization. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of recent losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry-forward periods, experience with tax attributes expiring unused, and tax planning alternatives. The weight given to these considerations depends upon the degree to which they can be objectively verified.
The Company continues to provide for a valuation allowance on certain of its foreign deferred tax assets and an anticipated capital loss carryforward. The Company has determined, based on the evaluation of both objective and subjective evidence available, that this valuation allowance is necessary and that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are not fully realizable.
In accordance with the FASB’s authoritative guidance on accounting for income taxes, the Company has recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to a 2010 Research and Development Credit as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The accounting guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company's returns will remain subject to examination by the various taxing authorities for the duration of the applicable statute of limitations (generally three years from the later of the date of filing or the due date of the return).

NOTE Q. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) amounts. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding during the reporting period that are calculated using the treasury stock method for stock-based awards. The treasury stock method assumes that the Company uses the proceeds from the exercise of awards to repurchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method include the purchase price that the grantee will pay in the future and compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized. For each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, there were 1 million outstanding stock options excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because they were anti-dilutive.
The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators used to calculate basic EPS and diluted EPS (in millions, except per share data):
