OVERVIEW
Introduction:
The Timken Company designs and manages a growing portfolio of engineered bearings and power transmission products. With more than a century of innovation and increasing knowledge, the Company continuously improves the reliability and efficiency of global machinery and equipment to move the world forward. The Company’s growing product and services portfolio features many strong industrial brands, such as Timken®, Philadelphia Gear®, Drives®, Cone Drive®, Rollon®, Lovejoy®, Diamond®, BEKA®, Groeneveld® and Spinea®. Timken employs more than 18,000 people globally in 43 countries. The Company operates under two reportable segments: (1) Mobile Industries and (2) Process Industries. The following further describes these business segments:
• Mobile Industries serves OEM customers that manufacture off-highway equipment for the agricultural, mining and construction markets; on-highway vehicles including passenger cars, light trucks, and medium- and heavy-duty trucks; rail cars and locomotives; outdoor power equipment; rotorcraft and fixed-wing aircraft; and other mobile equipment. Beyond service parts sold to OEMs, aftermarket sales and services to individual end users, equipment owners, operators and maintenance shops are handled directly or through the Company's extensive network of authorized automotive and heavy-truck distributors.
• Process Industries serves OEM and end-user customers in industries that place heavy demands on the fixed operating equipment they make or use in heavy and other general industrial sectors. This includes metals, cement and aggregate production; power generation and renewable energy sources; oil and gas extraction and refining; pulp and paper and food processing; automation and robotics; and health and critical motion control equipment. Other applications include marine equipment, gear drives, cranes, hoists and conveyors. This segment also supports aftermarket sales and service needs through its global network of authorized industrial distributors and through the provision of services directly to end users.
Timken creates value by understanding customer needs and applying its know-how to serve a broad range of customers in attractive markets and industries across the globe. The Company’s business strengths include its product technology, end-market diversity, geographic reach and aftermarket mix. Timken collaborates with OEMs to improve equipment efficiency with its engineered products and captures subsequent equipment replacement cycles by selling largely through independent channels in the aftermarket. Timken focuses its international efforts and footprint in regions of the world where strong macroeconomic factors such as urbanization, infrastructure development and sustainability create demand for its products and services.
The Company's long-term strategy has three primary elements:
Profitable Growth. The Company intends to expand into new and existing markets by leveraging its collective knowledge of metallurgy, friction management and power transmission to create value for Timken customers. Using a highly collaborative technical selling approach, the Company places particular emphasis on creating unique solutions for challenging and/or demanding applications. The Company intends to grow in attractive market sectors around the world, emphasizing those spaces that are highly fragmented, demand high service and value the reliability and efficiency offered by Timken products. The Company also targets applications that offer significant aftermarket demand, thereby providing product and services revenue throughout the equipment’s lifetime.
Operational Excellence. Timken operates with a relentless drive for exceptional results and a passion for superior execution. The Company embraces a continuous improvement culture that is charged with increasing efficiency, lowering costs, eliminating waste, encouraging organizational agility and building greater brand equity to fuel growth. This requires the Company’s ongoing commitment to attract, retain and develop the best talent across the world.
Capital Deployment to Drive Shareholder Value. The Company is intently focused on providing the highest returns for shareholders through its capital allocation framework, which includes: (1) investing in the core business through capital expenditures, research and development, and other initiatives to drive profitable organic growth; (2) pursuing strategic acquisitions to broaden its portfolio and capabilities across diverse markets, with a focus on bearings, adjacent power transmission products and related services; (3) returning capital to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases; and (4) maintaining a strong balance sheet and sufficient liquidity. As part of this framework, the Company may also restructure, reposition or divest underperforming product lines or assets.

The increase in net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily driven by strong organic growth (including positive pricing), partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes. The increase in net income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to favorable price/mix and the impact of higher volume, partially offset by higher material, logistics and other operating costs, higher pension mark-to-market charges, higher impairment and restructuring charges and a higher tax rate.
The increase in net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily driven by strong organic growth (including positive pricing), partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate ch anges. The increase in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to favorable price/mix and the impact of higher volume, partially offset by higher material, logistics and other operating costs, higher pension mark-to-market charges and a higher tax rate.
Outlook:
The Company expects 2022 full-year revenue to be up approximately 7% compared to 2021, primarily due to higher demand across most end markets, positive pricing and the continued execution of growth initiatives. The Company's earnings are expected to be up in 2022 compared with 2021, primarily due to the favorable impact of price/mix and higher volume, partially offset by higher material, logistics and other operating costs, as well as higher interest costs and a higher tax rate. In 2021, the Company experienced supply chain disruptions, inflationary cost pressures and staffing issues related to accelerating customer demand. Timken expects business conditions to remain challenging in 2022, due in part to the impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the ongoing Coronavirus ("COVID-19") lockdowns in China.
The Company expects to generate cash from operating activities in 2022 above 2021 levels driven by higher earnings. The Company expects capital expenditures between 4.0% and 4.5% of sales in 2022, compared with 3.6% of sales ($148 million) in 2021.

Non-service pension and other postretirement (expense) income decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to higher pension remeasurement losses in 2022. The remeasurements were triggered by expected lump sum payments to new retirees exceeding annual service and interest costs for two of the Company's U.S. defined benefit pension plans. As a result of the remeasurements, the Company recognized net actuarial losses of $11.6 million and $3.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively, and $14.2 million and $4.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. In addition, the decrease was due to a lower expected return on plan assets in 2022.

At June 30, 2022, the Company had strong liquidity with $305.3 million of cash and cash equivalents on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, as well as $741.7 million of available resources from committed credit lines. Of the $305.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, $257.0 million resided in jurisdictions outside the United States. Repatriation of non-U.S. cash could be subject to taxes and some portion may be subject to governmental restrictions. As of June 30, 2022, Timken has $17.8 million of cash in Russia, which the Company is presently unable to repatriate. Part of the Company's strategy is to grow in attractive market sectors, many of which are outside the United States. This strategy includes making investments in facilities, equipment and potential new acquisitions. The Company plans to fund these investments, as well as meet working capital requirements, with cash and cash equivalents and unused lines of credit within the geographic location of these investments where feasible.
On June 25, 2019, the Company entered into the Senior Credit Facility, which is a $650.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility that matures on June 25, 2024. At June 30, 2022, the Senior Credit Facility had outstanding borrowings of $8.3 million, which reduced the availability to $641.7 million. The Senior Credit Facility has two financial covenants: a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio. The maximum consolidated leverage ratio permitted under the Senior Credit Facility is 3.5 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2022, the Company's consolidated leverage ratio was 2.36 to 1.0. The minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio permitted under the Senior Credit Facility is 3.0 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2022, the Company's consolidated interest coverage ratio was 12.64 to 1.0.
The interest rate under the Senior Credit Facility is variable with a spread based on the Company's debt rating. The average rate on outstanding Euro borrowings was 1.00% as of June 30, 2022. In addition, the Company pays a facility fee based on the applicable rate, which is variable with a spread based on the Company's debt rating, multiplied by the aggregate commitments of all of the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2022, the Company carried investment-grade credit ratings with both Moody's (Baa2) and S&P Global (BBB-).
The Company has a $100 million Accounts Receivable Facility, which matures on November 30, 2024. The Accounts Receivable Facility is subject to certain borrowing base limitations and is secured by certain domestic trade accounts receivable of the Company. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Accounts Receivable Facility and no borrowing base limitations. Availability under the Accounts Receivable Facility was $100 million as of June 30, 2022.

Other sources of liquidity include uncommitted short-term lines of credit for certain of the Company's foreign subsidiaries, which provide for borrowings of up to approximately $254.4 million. At June 30, 2022, the Company had borrowings outstanding of $70.3 million and bank guarantees of $0.2 million, which reduced the aggregate availability under these facilities to approximately $183.9 million.
On March 28, 2022, the Company issued the 2032 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $350 million with an interest rate of 4.125%, maturing on April 1, 2032 . Proceeds from the notes were used for general corporate purposes, which included repayment of borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility and the Accounts Receivable Facility outstanding at the time of issuance. In addition, a portion of the proceeds from the notes was used to fund the Spinea acquisition, which closed in the second quarter of 2022.
At June 30, 2022, the Company was in full compliance with all applicable covenants on its outstanding debt.
The Company expects to generate cash from operating activities in 2022 above 2021 levels driven by higher earnings. The Company expects capital expenditures between 4.0% and 4.5% of sales in 2022, compared with 3.6% of sales ($148 million) in 2021.
Financing Obligations and Other Commitments:
During the first six months of 2022, the Company made cash contributions and payments of $6.2 million to its global defined benefit pension plans and $1.9 million to its other postretirement benefit plans. The Company expects to make contributions to its global defined benefit plans of approximately $10 million in 2022. The Company expects to make payments of approximately $5 million to its other postretirement benefit plans in 2022. Excluding mark-to-market charges, the Company expects higher pension and other postretirement benefits expense in 2022 compared to 2021 primarily due to lower expected returns on pension plan assets and higher interest expense, partially offset by lower service costs.
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities or other persons.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. The Company reviews its critical accounting policies throughout the year. The Company has concluded that there have been no significant changes to its critical accounting policies or estimates, as described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
