Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Hyster-Yale, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hyster-Yale, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated March 03, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the
critical audit matter or on the account or disclosure to which it relates.
Valuation of Goodwill - Bolzoni
Description of the Matter At December 31, 2025, the Company’s goodwill balance associated with Bolzoni was $52.9 million. As discussed in Note 12, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, to the consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluates the carrying amount of goodwill for impairment annually as of May 1st and between annual evaluations if changes in circumstances or the occurrence of certain events indicate potential impairment. The Company applied a quantitative assessment for all material reporting units in fiscal 2025. As part of the quantitative approach, the Company estimates the fair value of the reporting unit using a discounted cash flow approach from the perspective of a market participant and comparable market values for similar businesses.
Auditing management’s annual goodwill impairment assessment for the Bolzoni reporting unit was complex and judgmental due to the use of valuation methodologies in determining the estimated fair value of the Bolzoni reporting unit. In particular, the fair value estimates are impacted by significant assumptions utilized in the valuation models, such as the discount rate applied, and operating margins, which are affected by expectations about future market or economic conditions.

Valuation of Goodwill - Bolzoni
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit We obtained an understanding and evaluated the design of, and tested the operating effectiveness of, controls over the Company’s goodwill impairment process whereby the Company develops significant assumptions that are used as inputs to the annual goodwill impairment test. This included controls over management's review of the valuation model and the significant assumptions described above to develop the prospective financial information (PFI).
To test the estimated fair value of the Company’s Bolzoni reporting unit, we performed audit procedures that included, among others, assessing the methodologies used and directly testing the significant assumptions and the underlying data used by the Company in its analyses, including assessing the completeness and accuracy of such underlying data. We utilized internal valuation specialists in assessing the fair value methodologies applied and evaluating the reasonableness of the discount rate selected by management. We compared the significant assumptions used by management to current industry and economic trends, historical performance, guideline public companies in the same industry and strategic plans. We assessed the historical accuracy of management’s estimates, and we performed sensitivity analyses of significant assumptions to evaluate the changes in the fair value that would result from changes in the assumptions. Furthermore, we assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Hyster-Yale, Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited Hyster-Yale, Inc. and subsidiaries' internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Hyster-Yale, Inc. and subsidiaries (“the Company”) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 and the related notes and our report dated March 03, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management's report on internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
HYSTER-YALE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Dollars in Millions, Except Per Share Data)
NOTE 1— Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Hyster-Yale, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and the accounts of Hyster-Yale's wholly owned domestic and international subsidiaries and majority-owned joint ventures (collectively, "Hyster-Yale" or the "Company"). All intercompany accounts and transactions among the consolidated companies are eliminated in consolidation.
The Company, through its wholly owned operating subsidiary, Hyster-Yale Materials Handling, Inc. ("HYMH"), designs, engineers, manufactures, sells and services a comprehensive line of lift trucks, parts, fleet management services, technology and energy solutions marketed globally primarily under the Hyster ® , Yale ® and Nuvera ® brand names, mainly to independent Hyster ® and Yale ® retail dealerships. Lift trucks and component parts are manufactured in the United States ("U.S."), Northern Ireland, China, the Netherlands, Mexico, the Philippines, Brazil, Japan, Italy and Vietnam. The sale of parts represents approximately 16 %, 14 %, and 15 % of total revenues as reported in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The Company owns a 90 % majority interest in Hyster-Yale Maximal Forklift (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd. ("Hyster-Yale Maximal"), a manufacturer of low-intensity and standard lift trucks and specialized material handling equipment. Hyster-Yale Maximal also designs and produces specialized products in the port equipment and rough terrain forklift markets.
Bolzoni manufactures precision-engineered lift truck attachments, forks, masts and lift tables designed for handling delicate and specialized loads. These solutions are marketed under the Bolzoni ® , Auramo ® and Meyer ® brand names and the Silver Line product portfolio. Bolzoni also produces components for lift truck manufacturers. Bolzoni products are manufactured in Italy, the U.S., China, Germany, Finland and Brazil. Through the design, production and distribution of a wide range of attachments, Bolzoni has a strong presence in the lift-truck attachments market and industrial material handling.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company announced a strategic business realignment of Nuvera Fuel Cells, LLC ("Nuvera") designed both to increase near-term profits and to create an integrated energy solutions program in the Americas segment, which is part of the HYMH business. Nuvera was merged into HYMH in the second quarter of 2025. As a result, the Company revised its operating segments to reflect changes in the way the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) manages and evaluates the business. These changes did not impact the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, but did impact its reportable segments. The historical and current results of the former Nuvera segment are now presented within the Americas operating segment. Refer to Note 4, Business Segments , for additional information on the Company's reportable segments. Comparative prior period amounts have been recast to reflect the segment change.
Investments in Sumitomo NACCO Forklift Co., Ltd. ("SN"), a 50 % owned joint venture, and HYG Financial Services, Inc. ("HYGFS"), a 20 % owned joint venture, are accounted for by the equity method. SN operates manufacturing facilities in Japan, the Philippines and Vietnam from which the Company purchases certain components, service parts and lift trucks. Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd. owns the remaining 50% interest in SN. Each stockholder of SN is entitled to appoint directors representing 50 % of the vote of SN’s board of directors. All matters related to policies and programs of operation, manufacturing and sales activities require mutual agreement between the Company and Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd. prior to a vote of SN’s board of directors. HYGFS is a joint venture with Wells Fargo Financial Leasing, Inc. ("WF"), formed primarily for the purpose of providing financial services to independent Hyster ® and Yale ® lift truck dealers and major account customers in the United States. Major account customers are large customers with centralized purchasing and geographically dispersed operations in multiple dealer territories. The Company’s percentage share of the net income or loss from these equity investments is included in “Income from unconsolidated affiliates” in the “Other (income) expense” portion of the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
NOTE 2— Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and judgments. These estimates and judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities (if any) at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
F-12
Table of Contents
Accounts Receivable, Net of Allowances: Allowances are maintained against accounts receivable for doubtful accounts. Allowances for doubtful accounts are maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of customers to make required payments. These allowances are based on historical experience, existing economic trends and both recent trends of specific customers estimated to be a greater credit risk as well as general trends of the entire customer pool. Accounts are written off against the allowance when it becomes evident collection will not occur.
Changes in the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts, including write-offs, are as follows:
2025 2024
Balance at January 1 $ 6.6 $ 13.2
Charged to costs and expenses 1.9 2.2
Write-offs ( 0.3 ) ( 4.3 )
Recoveries ( 1.6 ) ( 4.0 )
Foreign currency effect 0.2 ( 0.5 )
Balance at December 31 $ 6.8 $ 6.6
The allowance for doubtful accounts balance includes allowance of receivables classified as long-term of $ 4.5 million and $ 3.9 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Self-insurance Liabilities: The Company is generally self-insured for product liability, environmental liability and medical and workers’ compensation claims. For product liability, catastrophic insurance coverage is retained for potentially significant individual claims. The Company also has insurance for certain historic product liability claims. An estimated provision for claims reported and for claims incurred but not yet reported under the self-insurance programs is recorded and revised periodically based on industry trends, historical experience and management judgment. In addition, industry trends are considered within management judgment for valuing claims. Changes in assumptions for such matters as legal judgments and settlements, legal defense costs, inflation rates, medical costs and actual experience could cause estimates to change in the near term.
Advertising Costs: Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total advertising expense was $ 11.5 million, $ 11.7 million and $ 10.6 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Research and Development Costs: Expenses associated with the development of new products and changes to existing products are charged to expense as incurred. These costs amounted to $ 137.2 million, $ 135.9 million and $ 119.7 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Foreign Currency: Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. operations are generally translated into U.S. dollars at the fiscal year-end exchange rate. The related translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of equity. Revenues and expenses of all non-U.S. operations are translated using average monthly exchange rates prevailing during the year.

NOTE 3— Revenue
Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied, which occurs when control of the trucks, parts, or services are transferred to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. The satisfaction of performance obligations under the terms of a revenue contract generally gives rise for the right to payment from the customer. The Company's standard payment terms vary by the type and location of the customer and the products or services offered. Generally, the time between when revenue is recognized and when payment is due is not significant. Given the insignificant days between revenue recognition and receipt of payment, financing components do not exist between the Company and its customers. Taxes collected from customers are excluded from revenue. The estimated costs of product warranties are recognized as expense when the products are sold. See Note 15, Product Warranties , for further information on product warranties.
The majority of the Company's sales contracts contain performance obligations satisfied at a point in time when title and risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. Revenues for service contracts are recognized as the services are provided.
The Company also records variable consideration in the form of estimated reductions to revenues for customer programs and incentive offerings, including special pricing agreements, promotions and other volume-based incentives. Lift truck sales revenue is recorded net of estimated discounts. The estimated discount amount is based upon historical experience and trend analysis for each lift truck model. In addition to standard discounts, dealers can also request additional discounts that allow them to offer price concessions to customers. From time to time, the Company offers special incentives to increase market share or dealer stock and offers certain customers volume rebates if a specified cumulative level of purchases is obtained.
For contracts with customers that include multiple performance obligations, judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations specified in these contracts are distinct and should be accounted for as separate revenue transactions for recognition purposes. For such arrangements, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative

standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers or using expected cost plus margin. Impairment losses recognized on receivables or contract assets were not significant for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company pays for shipping and handling activities regardless of when control is transferred and has elected to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the good, rather than a promised service. These costs are included in “Cost of sales” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The following table disaggregates revenue by category:

Dealer sales are recognized when the Company transfers control based on the shipping terms of the contract, which is generally when the truck is shipped from the manufacturing facility to the dealers. The majority of direct customer sales are to major customers. In these transactions, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when it delivers the product to the customer according to the terms of the contract. Service and parts sales represent parts sales, extended warranty and maintenance services. For the sale of parts, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when parts are shipped to the customer. When customers are given the right to return eligible parts and accessories, the Company estimates the expected returns based on an analysis of historical experience. The Company adjusts estimated revenues at the earlier of when the most likely amount of consideration expected to be received changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. The Company recognizes revenue for extended warranty and maintenance agreements based on the standalone selling price over the life of the contract, which reflects the costs to perform under these contracts and corresponds with, and thereby depicts, the transfer of control to the customer. Bolzoni revenue from external customers is primarily the sale of attachments to customers. In these transactions, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue according to the shipping terms of the contract. In the U.S.,

Bolzoni also has revenue for sales of forklift components to HYMH plants . In all revenue transactions, the Company receives cash equal to the invoice price and amount of consideration received and the revenue recognized may vary with changes in marketing incentives. Intercompany revenues between Bolzoni and the lift truck business have been eliminated.
Deferred Revenue: The Company defers revenue for transactions that have not met the criteria for recognition at the time payment is collected, including extended warranties and maintenance contracts. In addition, for certain products, services and customer types, the Company collects payment prior to the transfer of control to the customer. Changes in the Company's deferred revenue are as follows:

Balance, January 1 $ 71.3 $ 92.5

NOTE 4— Business Segments
The Company defines reportable and operating segments on the same basis used to evaluate performance internally by the CODM, which the Company has determined is the Chief Executive Officer. The Company uses operating profit (loss) to evaluate segment profitability. The CODM uses operating profit (loss) to allocate resources predominately in the annual forecasting process and as the measure of segment profit or loss. The CODM considers forecast-to-actual variances on a monthly basis when assessing segment performance and making decisions about allocating resources to the segments. The Company has four segments, which include three in the lift truck business, as well as Bolzoni.
Operating segments within the lift truck business include the Americas, EMEA and JAPIC, collectively the "lift truck business." Americas includes lift truck operations in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Latin America and the corporate headquarters. EMEA includes operations in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. JAPIC includes operations in the Asia and Pacific regions, including China. Certain amounts are allocated to these geographic operating segments and are included in the reportable segment results presented below, including product development costs, corporate headquarters' expenses and information technology infrastructure costs. These allocations among geographic operating segments are determined by senior management and not directly incurred by the geographic operations. In addition, other costs are incurred directly by these geographic operating segments based upon the location of the manufacturing plant or sales units, including manufacturing variances, product liability, warranty and sales discounts, which may not be associated with the geographic operating segments of the ultimate end user sales location where revenues and margins are reported. Therefore, the reported results of each operating segment for the lift truck business cannot be considered stand-alone entities as all segments are inter-related and integrate into a single global lift truck business.
The Company reports the results of Bolzoni as a separate segment. Intercompany sales between Bolzoni and the lift truck business have been eliminated.
During 2025, the Company announced a strategic business realignment of Nuvera designed both to increase near-term profits and to create an integrated energy solutions program in the Americas, which is part of the HYMH business. Nuvera was merged into HYMH in the second quarter of 2025. As a result, the Company revised its operating segments to reflect changes in the way the CODM manages and evaluates the business. These changes did not impact the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, but did impact its reportable segments. The historical and current results of the former Nuvera segment are now presented within the Americas operating segment. Comparative prior period amounts have been recast to reflect the segment change.
Financial information for each of the reportable segments is presented in the following table. See Note 1, Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations, for a discussion of the Company’s product lines. Refer to Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies , for a description of the accounting policies of the reportable segments as well as a reference table for the remaining accounting policies described in the accompanying footnotes.

NOTE 5— Common Stock and Earnings per Share
The Company's Class A common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “HY.” Because of transfer restrictions on Class B common stock, no trading market has developed, or is expected to develop, for the Company's Class B common stock. The Class B common stock is convertible into Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis at any time at the request of the holder. The Company's Class A common stock and Class B common stock have the same cash dividend rights per share. The Class A common stock has one vote per share and the Class B common stock has ten votes per share. The total number of authorized shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock at December 31, 2025 was 125 million shares and 35 million shares, respectively. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, 245,063 and 204,435 treasury shares of Class A common stock were outstanding, respectively.
Stock Compensation: The Company has stock compensation plans for certain employees in the U.S. that allow the grant of shares of Class A common stock, subject to restrictions, as a means of retaining and rewarding them for long-term performance and to increase ownership in the Company. Shares awarded under the plans are fully vested and entitle the stockholder to all rights of common stock ownership except that shares may not be assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred during the restriction period. In general, the restriction period ends at the earliest of (i) five years after the participant's retirement date, (ii) four, seven or ten years from the award date, as defined in the award, or (iii) the participant's death or permanent disability. Pursuant to the plans, the Company issued 170,431 , 355,452 and 423,596 shares related to the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. After the issuance of these shares, there will be 562,977 shares of Class A common stock available for issuance under these plans. Compensation expense related to these share awards was $ 5.5 million ($ 5.0 million net of tax), $ 21.8 million ($ 18.6 million net of tax) and $ 27.5 million ($ 23.5 million net of tax) for the years ended 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Compensation expense at the grant date represents fair value based on the market price of the shares of Class A common stock. The Company also has a stock compensation plan for non-employee directors of the Company under which a portion of the non-employee directors’ annual retainer is paid in restricted shares of Class A common stock. For the year ended December 31, 2025, $ 150,000 of each non-employee director's retainer of $ 226,000 was paid in restricted shares of Class A common stock. For the year ended December 31, 2024, $ 145,000 of $ 216,000 was paid in restricted shares of Class A common stock. For the year ended December 31, 2023, $ 140,000 of $ 208,000 was paid in restricted shares of Class A common stock. Shares awarded under the plan are fully vested and entitle the stockholder to all rights of common stock ownership except that shares may not be assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred during the restriction period. In general, the restriction period ends at the earliest of (i) ten years from the award date, (ii) the date of the director's death or permanent disability, (iii) five years (or earlier with the approval of the Board of Directors) after the director's date of retirement from the Board of Directors, or (iv) the date on which the director has both retired from the Board of Directors and reached 70 years of age. Pursuant to this plan, the Company issued 49,426 , 26,790 and 34,239 shares related to the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In addition to the mandatory retainer fee received in restricted stock, directors may elect to receive shares of Class A common stock in lieu of cash for up to 100% of the balance of their annual retainer, meeting attendance fees, committee retainer and any committee chairman's fees. These voluntary shares are not subject to any restrictions. Total shares issued under voluntary elections were 2,559 , 779 and 726 in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. After the issuance of these shares, there were 85,481

The Company has determined that it is impracticable to calculate the amount of deferred taxes that would be applicable to all of its investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries. However, the Company has provided for anticipated taxes on unremitted non-U.S. earnings for which no reinvestment plan has been identified and that may be repatriated in the foreseeable future.
The Company has elected to account for the global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI") tax in the period in which it is incurred, and therefore has not provided any deferred tax amounts for GILTI.
On July 4, 2025, the President of the United States signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) into law. The OBBBA includes provisions effective in 2025 that restore immediate expensing for domestic research and development costs, allow 100% bonus depreciation for qualifying property, and modify the limitation on the deductibility of business interest expense. The Company reflected the effects of these changes in its income tax provision for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The requirement to capitalize and amortize foreign research and development expenditures over fifteen years was not modified by the OBBBA. This continued requirement has had and will continue to have a material impact on the Company's future cash payments for income taxes but decreasingly over time.
A detailed summary of the total deferred tax assets and liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets resulting from differences in the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities is as follows:

The Company continually evaluates its deferred tax assets to determine if a valuation allowance is required. A valuation allowance is required where realization is determined to no longer meet the "more likely than not" standard. The establishment of a valuation allowance does not have an impact on cash, nor does such an allowance preclude the Company from using its loss carryforwards or other deferred tax assets in future periods. The tax net operating losses attributable to Brazil, China and the United Kingdom ("U.K.") comprise a substantial portion of the non-U.S. net operating loss deferred tax assets. The Brazilian and U.K. net operating losses do not expire under local law, while Chinese losses expire after five years.
During 2024, the Company assessed the realizability of its deferred tax assets in Brazil and concluded that a portion met the more likely than not threshold for realization. This conclusion was based on the anticipated reversal of deferred temporary differences, historical and forecasted operating results, and projections of future taxable income over the Company’s forecast period. As result, the Company recognized a tax benefit of $ 4.3 million in 2024 related to a partial release of the valuation allowance previously recorded against Brazilian deferred tax assets.
In 2025, the Company’s Brazilian operations generated an operating loss resulting in the creation of additional deferred tax assets. Based on updated projections of future taxable income and the expected utilization of net operating losses, the Company determined that these incremental deferred tax assets did not meet the more likely than not realization threshold. Accordingly, the Company recorded an additional valuation allowance of $ 3.0 million in 2025, which primarily relates to the current‑year operating loss and net operating losses not expected to be realized within the forecast period.
Starting in 2021, the Company determined that the evidence available no longer supported a more likely than not standard for realization of its U.S. and U.K deferred tax assets due to cumulative pretax losses, lack of available tax planning strategies and declining forecasts due to supply and logistics constraints. While both the U.S. and U.K operations generated positive earnings during 2024, the Company incurred operating losses in both jurisdictions during 2025. After considering historical earnings and
F-23
Table of Contents
trends, recent operating performance, forecasted earnings, and the relevant expiration of carryforwards for both jurisdictions, the Company concluded the valuation allowances provided remain appropriate. Although the Company expects earnings over the longer term for its U.S. and U.K operations, it believes such longer-term forecasts are not sufficient evidence to support the future realization of the deferred tax assets. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2025, the Company has provided a valuation allowance of $124.5 million and $16.3 million against the deferred tax assets of the U.S. and U.K., respectively.
During 2025 and 2024, the valuation allowance provided against deferred tax assets increased by $ 21.6 million and $ 17.7 million, respectively. The change in the total valuation allowance in 2025 and 2024 included a net increase in tax expense of $ 24.6 million and $ 19.9 million, respectively, and a net decrease of $ 3.0 million and $ 2.2 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively, recorded directly in equity.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had gross net operating loss carryforwards in the U.S. of $48.9 million, U.S. state jurisdictions of $ 32.3 million and non-U.S. jurisdictions of $ 131.8 million.
The following is a reconciliation of total gross unrecognized tax benefits, defined as the aggregate tax effect of differences between the Company's tax return positions and the benefits recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. Approximately $ 4.1 million, $ 3.1 million and $ 3.8 million of these amounts as of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, relate to permanent items that, if recognized, would impact the reported income tax rate.

Balance at December 31 $ 4.1 $ 3.1 $ 3.8
The Company records interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of the income tax provision. The Company recorded a net increase of $ 0.1 million during 2025 and net decrease of $ 0.5 million and $ 1.4 million during 2024 and 2023, respectively, in interest and penalties. In addition, during 2025, the balance of accrued interest and penalty was increased for uncertain tax positions related to a business acquisition by $1.0 million. There was no foreign currency translation impact in 2025, 2024 or 2023. The total amount of interest and penalties accrued was $ 1.5 million, $ 0.4 million and $ 0.9 million as of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The unrecognized tax benefits as well as associated penalties and interest resulting from the business acquisition are subject to an indemnification agreement. As such, any related amount paid pursuant to an income tax examination of the acquired entity is expected to be recovered via collection of the indemnification asset, resulting in recognition within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amounts recorded for unrecognized tax benefits are provisional and represent the Company’s preliminary assessment of uncertain tax positions of the acquired entity based on information available as of the acquisition date. The Company continues to evaluate acquisition-date facts and circumstances, and the related assessment is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2026. Any measurement-period adjustments identified may impact the final purchase price allocation.
The tax returns of the Company and its non-U.S. subsidiaries are routinely examined by various taxing authorities. The Company has not been informed of any material assessment for which an accrual has not been previously provided. In addition, in certain circumstances where the Company is contesting an assessment and believes it has a strong probability of success, no accrual has been provided. The Company would vigorously contest any material assessment. Management believes any potential adjustment would not materially affect the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
In general, the Company operates in taxing jurisdictions that provide a statute of limitations period ranging from three to five years for the taxing authorities to review the applicable tax filings. The examination of U.S. federal tax returns for all years prior to 2022 have been settled with the Internal Revenue Service or otherwise have essentially closed under the applicable statute of limitations. The Company is routinely under examination in various state and non-U.S. jurisdictions and in most cases the statute of limitations has not been extended. The Company believes these examinations are routine in nature and are not expected to result in any material tax assessments.

NOTE 8— Financial Instruments and Derivative Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair values of revolving credit agreements and long-term debt, excluding finance leases, were determined using current rates offered for similar obligations taking into account company credit risk. This valuation methodology is Level 2 as defined in the fair value hierarchy. At December 31, 2025, the total carrying value and total fair value of revolving credit agreements and long-term debt, excluding finance leases, was $ 473.4 million and $ 469.1 million, respectively. At December 31, 2024, the total carrying value and total fair value of revolving credit agreements and long-term debt, excluding finance leases, was $ 417.3 million and $ 416.8 million, respectively.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable and derivatives. The large number of customers comprising the Company’s customer base and their dispersion across many different industries and geographies mitigates concentration of credit risk on accounts receivable. To further reduce credit risk associated with accounts receivable, the Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers, and in certain circumstances may require advance payments or collateral. The Company enters into derivative contracts with high-quality financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one institution.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Financial instruments held by the Company include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, revolving credit agreements, long-term debt, interest rate swap agreements and forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments or derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts to partially reduce risks related to transactions denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts hedge firm commitments and forecasted transactions relating to cash flows associated with sales and purchases denominated in non-functional currencies. The Company offsets fair value amounts related to foreign currency exchange contracts executed with the same counterparty. Changes in the fair value of forward foreign currency exchange contracts that are effective as hedges are recorded in OCI. Deferred gains or losses are reclassified from OCI to the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the same period as the gains or losses from the underlying transactions are recorded and are generally recognized in cost of sales.
The Company periodically enters into foreign currency exchange contracts that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. These derivatives are used to reduce the Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk related to forecasted purchase or sales transactions or forecasted intercompany cash payments or settlements. Gains and losses on these derivatives are generally recognized in "Cost of sales" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
F-25
Table of Contents
The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to partially reduce risks related to floating rate financing agreements that are subject to changes in the market rate of interest. Terms of the interest rate swap agreements require the Company to receive a variable interest rate and pay a fixed interest rate. The Company's interest rate swap agreements and the associated variable rate financings are predominately based upon the one-month SOFR. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swap agreements that are effective as hedges are recorded in OCI. Deferred gains or losses are reclassified from OCI to the consolidated statements of operations in the same period as the gains or losses from the underlying transactions are recorded and are recognized in interest expense .
Cash flows from hedging activities are reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in the same classification as the hedged item, as a component of cash flows from operations.
The Company measures its derivatives at fair value on a recurring basis using significant observable inputs. This valuation methodology is Level 2 as defined in the fair value hierarchy. The Company uses a present value technique that incorporates yield curves and foreign currency spot rates to value its derivatives and also incorporates the effect of the Company's and its counterparties' credit risk into the valuation.
The Company does not currently hold any nonderivative instruments designated as hedges or any derivatives designated as fair value hedges.
Foreign Currency Derivatives: The Company held forward foreign currency exchange contracts with a total notional amount of $ 0.6 billion at December 31, 2025, primarily denominated in euros, Japanese yen, U.S. dollars, Chinese renminbi, Mexican pesos, British pounds, Swedish kroner and Australian dollars. The Company held forward foreign currency exchange contracts with total notional amounts of $ 0.8 billion at December 31, 2024, primarily denominated in euros, Japanese yen, U.S. dollars, Chinese renminbi, Mexican pesos, British pounds, Swedish kroner and Australian dollars. The fair value of these contracts approximated a net asset of $ 1.8 million and a net liability $ 18.5 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was no material ineffectiveness of forward foreign currency exchange contracts that qualify for hedge accounting. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts that qualify for hedge accounting are generally used to hedge transactions expected to occur within the next 36 months. The mark-to-market effect of forward foreign currency exchange contracts that are considered effective as hedges has been included in OCI. Based on market valuations at December 31, 2025, $ 3.2 million of the amount of net deferred gain included in OCI at December 31, 2025 is expected to be reclassified as expense into the Consolidated Statements of Operations over the next twelve months, as the transactions occur.
Interest Rate Derivatives: The following table summarizes the notional amounts, related rates, excluding spreads, and remaining terms of interest rate swap agreements at December 31, 2025 and 2024:
Notional Amount Average Fixed Rate
December 31 December 31 December 31 December 31

20.7 12.0 2.20 % 1.93 % Extending to July 2030
The fair value of all interest rate swap agreements was a net asset of $ 3.8 million and $ 9.9 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The mark-to-market effect of interest rate swap agreements that are considered effective as hedges has been included in OCI. Based on market valuations at December 31, 2025, $ 3.7 million of the net deferred gain included in OCI is expected to be reclassified as income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations over the next twelve months, as cash flow payments are made in accordance with the interest rate swap agreements.

NOTE 9— Retirement Benefit Plans
Defined Benefit Plans: The Company maintains various defined benefit pension plans that provide benefits based on years of service and average compensation during certain periods. The Company’s policy is to make contributions to fund these plans within the range allowed by applicable regulations. Plan assets consist primarily of publicly traded stocks and government and corporate bonds.
Pension benefits for employees covered under the Company’s U.S. and U.K. plans are frozen. Only certain grandfathered employees in the Netherlands still earn retirement benefits under defined benefit pension plans. All other eligible employees of the Company, including employees whose pension benefits are frozen, receive retirement benefits under defined contribution retirement plans. During 2024, the Company and the trustee initiated a de-risking strategy for the U.K. plan, which resulted in changes to the target asset allocation to fixed income and highly-liquid securities. In January 2025, the trustee entered into a buy-in contract for the U.K. plan with a third-party insurance company. The trustee may choose to convert the buy-in policy to a buy-out by assigning individual insurance contracts to members. This process may extend for a significant period of time. Until any potential buy-out process is completed, the trustee remains responsible for the administration of the U.K. plan, allocation of non-insured plan assets and payment of employee retirement benefits. If a buy-out of the U.K. plan is completed in the future and the criteria for settlement accounting is satisfied, any amounts relating to the U.K. plan remaining in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified into earnings. The amount related to the U.K. plan represents the majority of the Non-U.S. Plans column in the components of accumulated comprehensive income (loss) table below.

The expected long-term rate of return on defined benefit plan assets reflects management’s expectations of long-term rates of return on funds invested to provide for benefits included in the projected benefit obligations. The Company has established the expected long-term rate of return assumption for plan assets by considering the historical rates of return over a period of time that is consistent with the long-term nature of the underlying obligations of these plans as well as a forward-looking rate of return. The historical and forward-looking rates of return for each of the asset classes used to determine the Company's estimated rate of return assumption were based upon the rates of return earned or expected to be earned by investments in the equivalent benchmark market indices for each of the asset classes.
Expected returns for the U.K. pension plan is based on a calculated market-related value of assets. Under this methodology, asset gains and losses resulting from actual returns that differ from the Company’s expected returns are recognized in the market-related value of assets ratably over three years.

NOTE 10—Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market for last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) inventory or lower of cost or net realizable value for first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) inventory. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, 50 % and 53 %, respectively, of total inventories were determined using the LIFO method, which consists primarily of manufactured inventories, including service parts for the lift truck business in the U.S. The FIFO method is used with respect to all other inventories.
The cost components of inventory include raw materials, purchased components, direct and indirect labor, utilities, depreciation, inbound freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs and warehousing costs. Reserves are maintained for estimated obsolescence or excess inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the net realizable value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Upon a subsequent sale or disposal of the impaired inventory, the corresponding reserve for impaired value is relieved to ensure that the cost basis of the inventory reflects any write-downs.
During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, as a result of severance and impairment charges directly related to restructuring activities for the Nuvera business realignment and for programs initiated in 2024, the Company reduced its inventory by $ 4.6 million and $ 2.4 million to its estimated net realizable value in the Americas and JAPIC, respectively. These charges are recorded in “Restructuring and impairment charges” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 19, Restructuring and Impairment Charges , for further discussion of the factors related to these adjustments.
Inventories are summarized as follows:

Finished goods and service parts $ 358.8 $ 393.3
Work in process 31.1 32.1
Raw materials 375.0 431.7
Total manufactured inventories 764.9 857.1
LIFO reserve ( 130.6 ) ( 102.8 )
Total inventory $ 634.3 $ 754.3
NOTE 11—Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided in amounts sufficient to amortize the cost of the assets, including assets recorded under finance leases, over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Buildings are generally depreciated using a 20, 40 or 50-year life, improvements to land and buildings are depreciated over estimated useful lives ranging up to 40 years and equipment is depreciated over estimated useful lives ranging from three to 15 years. Capital grants received for the acquisition of equipment are recorded as reductions of the related equipment cost and reduce future depreciation expense. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred.
The Company periodically evaluates long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives, for impairment when changes in circumstances or the occurrence of certain events indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Upon identification of indicators of impairment, assets and liabilities are grouped at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets or liabilities. The asset group would be considered impaired when the estimated future undiscounted cash flows generated by the asset group are less than carrying value. If the carrying value of an asset group is considered impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount that the carrying value of the asset group exceeds its fair value. Fair value is estimated as the 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.
In connection with the strategic realignment of Nuvera, the Company identified indicators of impairment primarily related to the recoverability of long-lived assets, all of which negatively impacted the Company and arose from adverse developments in the geopolitical and hydrogen markets. As a result, it was determined that the carrying value of the Nuvera fixed assets exceeded the undiscounted cash flows from the assets and the carrying value of Nuvera's fixed assets exceeded the fair value. Accordingly, the Company recognized charges during the year ended December 31, 2025 of $ 9.6 million related to the impairment of certain long-lived assets. Additionally, in relation to programs initiated in 2024 to streamline the Company's manufacturing footprint and optimize its operations, the Company identified indicators of impairment for long-lived assets where the estimated future undiscounted cash flows generated by the asset group were less than carrying value. As a result, for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded $ 6.8 million of fixed asset impairments ($ 0.6 million in the Americas, $ 4.6 million in JAPIC and $ 1.6 million in Bolzoni) representing the amount of the assets groups carrying value in excess of its fair value.

NOTE 12— Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The Company evaluates the carrying amount of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually as of May 1 st and between annual evaluations if changes in circumstances or the occurrence of certain events indicate potential impairment. The Company uses either a qualitative or quantitative analysis to determine whether fair value exceeds carrying value. As part of the quantitative testing process for goodwill, the Company estimates fair values using a discounted cash flow approach from the perspective of a market participant and comparable market values for similar businesses. Significant estimates in the discounted cash flow approach are cash flow forecasts of the reporting units, the discount rate, the terminal business value and the projected income tax rate. The cash flow forecasts of the reporting units are based upon management’s long-term view of markets and are the forecasts that are used by senior management and the Board of Directors to evaluate operating performance. The discount rate utilized is management’s estimate of what the market’s weighted average cost of capital is for a company with a similar debt rating and stock volatility, as measured by beta. The projected income tax rates utilized are the statutory tax rates for the countries where each reporting unit operates. The terminal business value is determined by applying a business growth factor to the latest year for which a forecast exists. As part of the goodwill quantitative testing process, the Company evaluates whether there are reasonably likely changes to management’s estimates that would have a material impact on the results of the goodwill impairment testing.
The annual testing for impairment was conducted as of May 1, 2025. The fair value of each reporting unit was in excess of its carrying value and thus, no impairment exists.
In 2025, Bolzoni acquired 100% of the equity interest of a manufacturing business in Italy for an aggregate purchase price of $ 2.6 million, net of cash acquired. In addition, the agreement may require additional consideration to be paid by Bolzoni based upon the acquired business achieving certain revenue and profitability metrics in future years. The Company has not yet finalized its analysis of the fair value of the acquired business, thus the allocation of the purchase price is preliminary and may change in future periods as fair value estimates of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are refined during the measurement period. The Company will complete the purchase price allocation within one year after the date of acquisition. The table below includes the initial allocation of goodwill which is expected to be finalized in the first quarter of 2026.
During 2024, Bolzoni acquired 60% of the equity interest of a machining business in Italy. Bolzoni maintains an option to purchase the remaining 40% of the equity interest of the machining business for a period of five years, subject to certain terms and conditions. The table below included the initial allocation of goodwill in 2024 and the completion of purchase accounting in 2025 as all goodwill was allocated to other identifiable assets.

The Company has indefinite-lived intangible assets for the Bolzoni trademarks. Fair values used in testing for potential impairment of the trademarks are calculated by applying an estimated market value royalty rate to the forecasted revenues of the businesses that utilize those assets. The assumed cash flows from this calculation are discounted using Bolzoni’s weighted average cost of capital. The Company completed the annual testing of impairment as of May 1, 2025. The fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets was in excess of its carrying value and thus, no impairment existed.

In 2025, the Company entered into an amended and restated agreement for a $ 300.0 million secured, floating-rate revolving credit facility (the “Facility”). The Facility consists of a domestic revolving credit facility in the initial amount of $ 210.0 million and a foreign revolving credit facility in the initial amount of $ 90.0 million. The Facility matures on June 24, 2030. The Facility replaced the Company’s previous revolving credit facility, which was set to mature on June 24, 2026.
The Facility can be increased up to $400.0 million over the term of the Facility in minimum increments of $10.0 million, subject to approval by the lenders. The obligations under the Facility are generally secured by a first priority lien on working capital assets of the borrowers and guarantors in the Facility, which includes but is not limited to cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and inventory, and a second priority lien on the present and future shares of capital stock, fixtures and general intangibles consisting of intellectual property. The approximate book value of assets held as collateral under the Facility was $ 1.1 billion as of December 31, 2025.
The Facility includes restrictive covenants, which, among other things, limit additional borrowings and investments of the Company subject to certain thresholds, as provided in the Facility. The Facility limits the payment of dividends and other restricted payments the Company may make unless certain total excess availability and/or fixed charge coverage ratio thresholds, each as set forth in the Facility, are satisfied. The Facility also requires the Company to achieve a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio when total excess availability is less than the greater of 10% of the total borrowing base, as defined in the Facility, and $20.0 million. At December 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the Facility.

The Company has a $ 225.0 million term loan (the "Term Loan"), which matures in May 2028. The Term Loan was amended in the second quarter of 2023 for the purpose of changing the benchmark interest rate for borrowings under the Term Loan from LIBOR to Term SOFR, each as defined in the Term Loan.
The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments on the last day of each March, June, September and December, which commenced September 30, 2021, in an amount equal to $0.6 million and the final principal repayment is due in May 2028. The Company may also be required to make mandatory prepayments, in certain circumstances, as provided in the Term Loan.
The obligations under the Term Loan are generally secured by a first priority lien on the present and future shares of capital stock, U.S. material real property, fixtures and general intangibles consisting of intellectual property and a second priority lien on U.S. working capital assets of the borrowers and guarantors of the Term Loan, which includes, but is not limited to cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and inventory. The approximate book value of assets held as collateral under the Term Loan was $ 0.8 billion as of December 31, 2025.
In addition, the Term Loan includes restrictive covenants, which, among other things, limit additional borrowings and investments of the Company subject to certain thresholds, as provided in the Term Loan. The Term Loan limits the payment of dividends and other restricted payments the Company may make in any fiscal year, unless the consolidated total net leverage ratio, as defined in the Term Loan, does not exceed 2.50 to 1.00 at the time of the payment. At December 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the Term Loan.

Specifically, when determining the classification of a lease as operating or financing, the Company considers whether there is control of the underlying asset, the transfer of substantially all of the economic benefits associated with the asset and whether the lease term and present value of lease payments are significant relative to the asset's fair value.
The Company does not recognize a lease liability or right-of-use ("ROU") asset for short-term leases (leases with an initial term of twelve months or less). For contracts with lease and non-lease components, the Company does not allocate the contract consideration, and accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments under the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The implicit rate within the operating leases are generally not determinable and the Company has obtained rates from third-party financiers for relevant geographies, currencies and lease terms to determine the incremental borrowing rate at the inception of new leases. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease prepayments, offset by lease incentives. Certain of the Company's leases include options to extend or terminate the lease. An option to extend the lease is considered in connection with determining the ROU asset and lease liability when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise that option. An option to terminate is also considered in connection with determining the ROU asset and lease liability unless it is reasonably certain the Company will not exercise the option. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

NOTE 15— Product Warranties
The Company provides a standard warranty on its lift trucks, generally for twelve months or 1,000 to 2,000 operating hours . For certain series of lift trucks, the Company provides a standard warranty of one to two years or 2,000 or 4,000 hours . For components in some series of lift trucks, the Company provides a standard warranty of two to three years or 4,000 to 6,000 hours . The Company estimates the costs which may be incurred under its standard warranty programs and records a liability for such costs at the time product revenue is recognized.
In addition, the Company sells separately priced extended warranty agreements that generally provide a warranty for an additional two to five years or up to 2,400 to 10,000 hours . The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending upon the product sold and the country in which the Company does business. Revenue received for the sale of extended warranty contracts is deferred and recognized in the same manner as the costs incurred to perform under the warranty contracts.
The Company also maintains a quality enhancement program under which it provides for specifically identified field product improvements in its warranty obligation. Accruals under this program are determined based on estimates of the potential number of claims and the cost of those claims based on historical costs.
The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Factors that affect the warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims and the cost per claim.
Changes in the Company's current and long-term warranty obligations, including deferred revenue on extended warranty contracts, are as follows:
2025 2024
Balance at January 1 $ 87.2 $ 68.1
Current year warranty expense 31.1 46.5
Change in estimate related to pre-existing warranties ( 2.5 ) 8.1
Payments made ( 43.8 ) ( 33.9 )
Foreign currency effect 1.6 ( 1.6 )
Balance at December 31 $ 73.6 $ 87.2
NOTE 16— Contingencies
Various legal and regulatory proceedings and claims have been or may be asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of its businesses, including product liability, environmental and other claims. These proceedings and claims are incidental to the ordinary course of business. Management believes that it has meritorious defenses and will vigorously defend the Company in these actions. Any costs that management estimates will be paid as a result of these claims are accrued when the liability is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Although the ultimate disposition of these proceedings is not

presently determinable, management believes, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the likelihood is remote that costs will be incurred materially in excess of accruals already recognized.
NOTE 17— Guarantees
Under various financing arrangements for certain customers, including independent retail dealerships, the Company provides recourse or repurchase obligations such that it would be obligated in the event of default by the customer. Terms of the third-party financing arrangements for which the Company is providing recourse or repurchase obligations generally range from one to five years. Total amounts subject to recourse or repurchase obligations at December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $ 134.5 million and $ 219.2 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, losses anticipated under the terms of the recourse or repurchase obligations were not significant and reserves have been provided for such losses based on historical experience in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company generally retains a security interest in the related assets financed such that, in the event the Company would become obligated under the terms of the recourse or repurchase obligations, the Company would take title to the assets financed. The fair value of collateral held at December 31, 2025 was approximately $ 179.7 million based on Company estimates. The Company estimates the fair value of the collateral using information regarding the original sales price, the current age of the equipment and general market conditions that influence the value of both new and used lift trucks. The Company also regularly monitors the external credit ratings of the entities for which it has provided recourse or repurchase obligations. As of December 31, 2025, the Company did not believe there was a significant risk of non-payment or non-performance of the obligations by these entities; however, there can be no assurance that the risk may not increase in the future. In addition, the Company has an agreement with WF to limit its exposure to losses at certain eligible dealers. Under this agreement, losses related to $ 31.4 million of recourse or repurchase obligations for these certain eligible dealers are limited to 7.5 % of their original loan balance, or $ 15.8 million as of December 31, 2025. The $ 31.4 million is included in the $ 134.5 million of total amounts subject to recourse or repurchase obligations at December 31, 2025.
Generally, the Company sells lift trucks through its independent dealer network or directly to customers. These dealers and customers may enter into a financing transaction with HYGFS or other unrelated third parties. HYGFS provides debt and lease financing to both dealers and customers. On occasion, the credit quality of a customer or credit concentration issues within WF may require the Company to provide recourse or repurchase obligations of the lift trucks purchased by customers and financed through HYGFS. At December 31, 2025, approximately $ 112.1 million of the Company's total recourse or repurchase obligations of $ 134.5 million related to transactions with HYGFS. In connection with the joint venture agreement, the Company also provides a guarantee to WF for 20 % of HYGFS’ debt with WF, such that the Company would become liable under the terms of HYGFS’ debt agreements with WF in the case of default by HYGFS. At December 31, 2025, loans from WF to HYGFS totaled $ 1.4 billion. Although the Company’s contractual guarantee was $ 280.8 million, the loans by WF to HYGFS are secured by HYGFS’ customer receivables, of which the Company guarantees $ 112.1 million. Excluding the HYGFS receivables guaranteed by the Company, the Company’s incremental obligation as a result of this guarantee to WF is $ 261.5 million, which is secured by 20% of HYGFS' customer receivables and other secured assets of $ 344.7 million. HYGFS has not defaulted under the terms of this debt financing in the past, and although there can be no assurances, the Company is not aware of any circumstances that would cause HYGFS to default in future periods.
NOTE 18— Debt and Equity Investments and Related-Party Transactions
The Company maintains an interest in one variable interest entity, HYGFS. HYGFS is a joint venture with WF formed primarily for the purpose of providing financial services to independent Hyster ® and Yale ® lift truck dealers and major account customers in the U.S. and is included in the Americas segment. The Company does not have a controlling financial interest or have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of HYGFS. Therefore, the Company has concluded that the Company is not the primary beneficiary and uses the equity method to account for its 20 % interest in HYGFS. The Company does not consider its variable interest in HYGFS to be significant.
Generally, the Company sells lift trucks through its independent dealer network or directly to customers. These dealers and customers may enter into a financing transaction with HYGFS or other unrelated third parties. HYGFS provides debt financing to dealers and lease financing to both dealers and customers. HYGFS’ total purchases of Hyster ® and Yale ® lift trucks from dealers, and directly from the Company such that HYGFS could provide retail lease financing to customers for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $ 628.9 million, $ 607.0 million and $ 527.5 million, respectively. Of these amounts, $ 124.2 million, $ 76.9 million and $ 78.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were invoiced directly from the Company to HYGFS so that the customer could obtain operating lease financing from HYGFS. Amounts receivable from HYGFS were $ 12.0 million and $ 20.0 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $ 14.1 million and $ 14.9 million, respectively, of notes payable to HYGFS for advance funding of inventory that will be financed by HYGFS upon sale. The Company provides recourse for certain financing provided by HYGFS to its dealers and customers. In addition, the Company also provides a guarantee to WF for their portion of HYGFS' debt. Refer to Note 17, Guarantees , for additional details relating to the guarantees provided to WF.

In addition to providing financing to dealers, HYGFS provides operating lease financing to the Company. Operating lease obligations primarily relate to specific sale-leaseback-sublease transactions for certain customers whereby the Company sells lift trucks to HYGFS, leases these lift trucks back under an operating lease agreement and then subleases those lift trucks to customers under an operating lease agreement. Total obligations to HYGFS under the operating lease agreements were $ 30.8 million and $ 25.1 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In addition, the Company provides certain subsidies to its dealers that are paid directly to HYGFS. Total subsidies were $ 9.5 million, $ 12.2 million and $ 9.2 million for 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The Company provides certain services to HYGFS for which it receives compensation under the terms of the joint venture agreement. The services consist primarily of administrative functions and remarketing services. Total income recorded by the Company related to these services was $ 6.5 million in 2025, $ 6.1 million in 2024 and $ 5.8 million in 2023.
The Company has a 50 % ownership interest in Sumitomo NACCO Forklift Co., Ltd. ("SN"), a limited liability company that was formed in 1970 primarily to manufacture and distribute Sumitomo-branded lift trucks in Japan and Southeast Asia, and to manufacture Hyster and Yale branded lift trucks, related components and service parts for distribution by the Company outside of Japan. The Company purchases products from SN under agreed-upon terms. The Company’s ownership in SN is also accounted for using the equity method of accounting and is included in the JAPIC segment. The Company purchases products from SN under normal trade terms based on current market prices. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, purchases from SN were $ 12.0 million, $ 14.5 million and $ 23.7 million, respectively. Amounts payable to SN at December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $ 5.1 million and $ 7.7 million, respectively.

NOTE 20— Maximal Equity Transfer Agreement
During 2021, the Company signed an Equity Transfer Agreement ("ETA") with Y-C Hongkong Holding Co., Limited (“HK Holding Co”). In June 2022, the Company purchased 15 % of the equity interest of Hyster-Yale Maximal from HK Holding Co for an aggregate purchase price of $ 25.2 million, which was paid in annual installments of $ 8.4 million beginning in June 2022 through June 2024. The Company has an option to purchase HK Holding Co's remaining 10% interest in Hyster-Yale Maximal at any time prior to June 8, 2056 for $ 16.8 million. If this option is exercised, the Company will own 100% of the equity interest of Hyster-Yale Maximal. As of December 31, 2025, the Company owned a 90 % majority interest in Hyster-Yale Maximal.
In addition, under the provisions of the ETA, HK Holding Co maintains a put option by which the Company could be required to exercise its purchase option. As one of the factors that could trigger the put option is outside of the Company’s control, the remaining 10% purchase option is considered contingently redeemable. Accordingly, the redeemable noncontrolling interest is not considered to be a component of stockholders’ equity and instead is reported as temporary equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Because the occurrence of the event that would trigger the put option is not probable of occurring, the Company will continue to attribute the 10% portion of earnings and losses, as well as any dividends declared, to the noncontrolling interest after the closing date of the ETA. As of the closing date of the ETA, the Company recorded the estimated fair value of the purchase option of $13.4 million as redeemable noncontrolling interest.
NOTE 21—Subsequent Events
In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ("the Court") issued a ruling holding that tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") are not legally authorized. The Court only ruled on IEEPA tariffs and did not invalidate any other tariffs, nor did the Court address whether or how the U.S. government might issue refunds of IEEPA tariffs. If the U.S. government is ultimately required to issue refunds, the process likely will take many months or years. Although the ruling has been issued, its implications for trade policy and related administrative actions remain uncertain. The Company is reviewing the decision and will evaluate its potential impact, including the U.S. and foreign administrations' tariff responses, as further information becomes available. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has not recorded any impact for potential recovery of tariff-related costs as refunds are uncertain.
