WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings Corp.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Nature of Operations
WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings Corp. (“WillScot Mobile Mini” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a leading provider of modular space and portable storage solutions in the United States (“US”), Canada, Mexico and the United Kingdom ("UK"). The Company also maintains a fleet of specialty containment products, including liquid and solid containment solutions. The Company leases, sells, delivers and installs mobile solutions and storage products through an integrated network of branch locations that spans North America and the UK.
On July 1, 2020, WillScot Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“WillScot”), and Mobile Mini, Inc. (“Mobile Mini”) merged (the “Merger”). Immediately following the Merger, WillScot changed its name to “WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings Corp.” and filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "A&R Charter"), which reclassified all outstanding shares of WillScot Class A Common Stock and converted such shares into shares of Common Stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share, of WillScot Mobile Mini ("WillScot Mobile Mini Common Stock"). The WillScot Class A Common Stock was listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (Nasdaq: WSC) up until the Merger, and the WillScot Mobile Mini Common Stock has been listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (Nasdaq: WSC) since the Merger. As used herein, the term “Common Stock” or “the Company’s Common Stock” refers to WillScot Class A Common Stock prior to filing of the A&R Charter on July 1, 2020 and to WillScot Mobile Mini Common Stock as of and following the filing of the A&R Charter July 1, 2020.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires that our condensed consolidated financial statements and most of the disclosures in these notes be presented on a historical basis. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Company” and “WillScot Mobile Mini” as used in these financial statements mean WillScot and its subsidiaries when referring to periods prior to July 1, 2020 (prior to the Merger) and to WillScot Mobile Mini, when referring to periods on or after July 1, 2020 (after the Merger).
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of WillScot Mobile Mini and its subsidiaries that it controls due to ownership of a majority voting interest and contain all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the dat e of acquisition, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated.
The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) , which is elective, and provides for optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationsh ips, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of reference rate reform and the potential impact of adoption of these elective practical expedients on its consolidated financial statements and does not expect the impact to be material.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) . The new ASU eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity’s own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the new guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. The amendments in the ASU are effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
9
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , which removes certain exceptions to the general principles for income taxes and also improves consistent application of accounting by clarifying or amending existing guidance. On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU 2019-12 and the impact of adoption was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company applied the standard prospectively for intraperiod tax allocation, year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated annual losses and enacted changes in tax laws.
NOTE 2 - Acquisitions
Mobile Mini Merger
Purchase Price
Upon completion of the Merger on July 1, 2020, each issued and outstanding share of Mobile Mini Common Stock, par value $ 0.01 per share, converted to 2.405 shares of WillScot Class A Common Stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share, and cash in lieu of any fractional shares. The Company issued 106,426,721 shares of Class A Common Stock to Mobile Mini stockholders as consideration for the Merger. The trading price of the Class A Common Stock was $ 12.53 per share on the closing date. In addition, Mobile Mini stock options converted into WillScot Mobile Mini stock options. The purchase price was determined as follows:
(in thousands, except share and per share data) July 1, 2020
Mobile Mini Common Stock outstanding 44,252,275
Share conversion ratio 2.405
Common Stock issued 106,426,721
Common Stock per share price as of July 1, 2020 $ 12.53
Fair value of shares of WillScot Class A Common Stock issued $ 1,333,527
Cash paid for fractional shares 30
Fair value of Mobile Mini Options converted to WillScot Mobile Mini Options 19,279
Total purchase price $ 1,352,836
The Merger was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, and WillScot was considered the accounting acquirer. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the Company assigned the purchase price to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the closing date. The excess of the purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill.
The Company recorded the fair values based on independent valuations, discounted cash flow analyses, quoted market prices, contributory asset charges, and estimates made by management. The following table summarizes the July 1, 2020 fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Leasing and Services Revenue
The majority of r evenue ( 73 % for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 71 % for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020) is generated by rental income subject to the guidance of ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASC 842"). The remaining revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 is generated by performance obligations in contracts with customers for services or sale of units subject to the guidance in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASC 606").
Receivables, Contract Assets and Liabilities
As reflected above, approximately 73 % of the Company's rental revenue is generated by lease revenue subject to the guidance in ASC 842. The customers that are respo nsible for the remaining revenue accounted for under ASC 606 are generally the same customers that rent the Company's equipment. The Company manages credit risk associated with its accounts receivables at the customer level. As the same customers generate the revenues that are accounted for under both ASC 606 and ASC 842, the discussions below on credit risk and the Company's allowance for credit losses address its total revenues. The Company's top five customers with the largest open receivables balances represente d 4.7 % of the total receivables balance as of September 30, 2021.
As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $ 78.8 million and $ 74.1 million, respectively, of deferred revenue that relates to removal services for lease transactions and advance billings for sale transactions, which are within the scope of ASC 606 and are included in deferred revenue and customer deposits in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, $ 20.9 million of previously deferred revenue relating to removal services for lease transactions and advance billings for sale transactions was recognized as revenue.
The Company does not have material contract assets and it did not recognize any material impairments of contract assets.
The Company's uncompleted contracts with customers have unsatisfied (or partially satisfied) performance obligations. For the future services revenues that are expected to be recognized within twelve months, the Company has elected to utilize the optional disclosure exemption made available regarding transaction price allocated to unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations. The transaction price for performance obligations that will be completed in greater than twelve months is variable based on the costs ultimately incurred to provide those services.
The primary costs to obtain contracts for new and rental unit sales with the Company's customers are commissions paid to its sales force. The Company pays its sales force commissions on the sale of new and rental units. For new and rental unit sales, the period benefited by each commission is less than one year, therefore the commissions are expensed as incurred.
Credit Losses
The Company is exposed to credit losses from trade receivables generated through its leasing and sales business. The Company assesses each customer’s ability to pay for the products it leases or sells by conducting a credit review. The credit review considers expected billing exposure and timing for payment and the customer’s established credit rating. The Company performs its credit review of new customers at inception of the customer relationship and for existing customers when the customer transacts new leases after a defined period of dormancy. The Company also considers contract terms and conditions, country risk and business strategy in the evaluation.
The Company monitors ongoing credit exposure through an active review of customer balances against contract terms and due dates. The Company may employ collection agencies and legal counsel to pursue recovery of defaulted receivables. The allowances for credit losses reflect the estimate of the amount of receivables that the Company will be unable to collect based on historical write-off experience and, as applicable, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect collectability. This estimate could require change based on changing circumstances, including changes in the economy or in the particular circumstances of individual customers. Accordingly, the Company may be required to increase or decrease its allowances.

Asset Backed Lending Facilities ("ABL Facility")
On November 29, 2017, Williams Scotsman Holdings Corp ("Holdings"), Williams Scotsman International, Inc. ("WSII") and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an ABL credit agreement (the “2017 ABL Facility”), as amended, that provided a senior secured revolving credit facility that matured on May 29, 2022. The 2017 ABL Facility consisted of (i) a $ 1.3 billion asset-backed revolving credit facility for WSII and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (the "2017 US ABL Facility"), (ii) a $ 140.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the "2017 Canadian ABL Facility") for certain Canadian subsidiaries of WSII, and (iii) an accordion feature that permitted the borrowers to increase the lenders’ commitments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $ 375.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions and lender approval, plus any voluntary prepayments that are accompanied by permanent commitment reductions under the 2017 ABL Facility.
On July 1, 2020, in connection with the completion of the Merger, Holdings, WSII, and certain of its subsidiaries, entered into a new asset-based credit agreement, that provides for revolving credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount of up to $ 2.4 billion, consisting of: (i) a senior secured asset-based US dollar revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $ 2.0 billion (the “US Facility”), available to WSII and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “US Borrowers”), and (ii) a $ 400.0 million senior secured asset-based multicurrency revolving credit facility (the "Multicurrency Facility" together with the US Facility, the “2020 ABL Facility”), available to be drawn in US Dollars, Canadian Dollars, British Pounds Sterling or Euros by the US Borrowers, and certain of WSII’s wholly-owned subsidiaries organized in Canada and in the UK. On July 1, 2020, in connection with the completion of the Merger, approximately $ 1.5 billion of proceeds from the 2020 ABL Facility were used to repay the 2017 ABL Facility and the asset-backed lending facility assumed in the transaction with Mobile Mini, as well as to pay fees and expenses related to the Merger and the debt financing transactions. In connection with the repayment of the 2017 ABL facility, the Company wrote off $ 4.4 million of deferred financing costs to loss on extinguishment of debt in the third quarter of 2020. The 2020 ABL Facility matures July 1, 2025.
18
Borrowings under the 2020 ABL Facility initially bear interest at (i) in the case of US Dollars, at WSII’s option, either an adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.875 % or an alternative base rate plus 0.875 %, (ii) in the case of Canadian Dollars, at WSII’s option, either a Canadian BA rate plus 1.875 % or Canadian prime rate plus 0.875 %, and (iii) in the case of Euros and British Pounds Sterling, an adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.875 %. The 2020 ABL Facility requires the payment of an annual commitment fee on the unused available borrowings of 0.225 % per annum . At September 30, 2021 , t he weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the 2020 ABL Faci lity was 1.97 %. T he weighted average interest rate on the balance outstanding as of September 30, 2021, as adjusted for the effects of the interest rate swap agreements, was 2.73 %. Refer to Note 16 for a more detailed discussion on interest rate management.
Borrowing availability under the US Facility and the Multicurrency Facility is equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate Revolver Commitments and (ii) the Line Cap. At September 30, 2021, the Line Cap was $ 2.4 billion and the Borrowers had $ 831.6 million of available borrowing capacity under the 2020 ABL Facility, including $ 431.6 million under the US Facility and $ 400.0 million under the Multicurrency Facility. At September 30, 2021, borrowing capacity under the 2020 ABL Facility allowed for up to $ 207.1 million of letters of credit and up to $ 170.0 million of swingline loans.

NOTE 10 – Equity
Common Stock
On June 30, 2020, as contemplated by the merger agreement, Sapphire Holding S.à r.l. ("Sapphire Holdings"), an affiliate of TDR Capital LLP (“TDR Capital”), exchanged each of its shares of common stock of Holdings for 1.3261 shares of newly issued WillScot Class A Common Stock (the "Sapphire Exchange"). As a result of the Sapphire Exchange, all issued and outstanding shares of WillScot’s Class B Common Stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share (the "Class B Common Stock"), were automatically canceled for no consideration and the existing exchange agreement was automatically terminated. As a result of the Sapphire Exchange, Holdings became a wholly-owned subsidiary of WillScot. Sapphire Holdings received 10,641,182 shares of Common Stock of WillScot in the Sapphire Exchange. Prior to the Sapphire Exchange, Sapphire Holdings' ownership of Holdings was recorded as a non-controlling interest in the consolidated financial statements. Subsequent to the Sapphire Exchange, the Company's subsidiaries are each wholly owned and there is no non-controlling interest. As a result of the Sapphire Exchange, non-controlling interest of $ 63.9 million was reclassified to $ 66.9 million of additional paid-in-capital and $ 3.0 million to accumulated other comprehensive loss, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
In connection with the Merger on July 1, 2020, the Company issued 106,426,722 shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for Mobile Mini Common Stock outstanding and subsequently filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation, which reclassified all outstanding shares of the Class A Common Stock and converted such shares into shares of Common Stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share, of WillScot Mobile Mini.
In connection with the stock compensation vesting events and stock option exercises described in Note 15, and the warrant exercises described below, the Company issued 5,273,466 shares of Common Stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Stock Repurchase Program
On August 7, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program that authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $ 250 million of its outstanding shares of Common Stock. On April 29, 2021, the Board of Directors approved an increase in repurchase authority to $ 500 million. The stock repurchase program does not obligate the Company to purchase any particular number of shares, and the timing and exact amount of any repurchases will depend on various factors, including market pricing and conditions, business, legal, accounting, and other considerations.
The Company may repurchase its shares in open market transactions from time to time or through privately negotiated transactions in accordance with federal securities laws, at the Company's discretion. The repurchase program, which has no expiration date, may be increased, suspended, or terminated at any time. The program is expected to be implemented over the course of several years and is conducted subject to the covenants in the agreements governing the Company's indebtedness.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 11,656,552 shares of Common Stock and stock equivalents for $ 322.6 million. As of September 30, 2021, $ 142.2 million of the approved repurchase pool remained available. In October of 2021, the Company's Board of Directors replaced the existing share repurchase program with a new share repurchase program that authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $ 1.0 billion of its outstanding shares of Common Stock and equivalents.

NOTE 11 – Warrants
Warrants
2015 Public Warrants
WillScot was incorporated under the name Double Eagle Acquisition Corporation ("DEAC") on June 26, 2015. On November 29, 2017, DEAC acquired WSII from Algeco Scotsman Global S.à.r.l., which is majority owned by an investment fund managed by TDR Capital, and DEAC domesticated to Delaware and changed its name to WillScot Corporation.
As part of its initial public offering, DEAC issued warrants (the “2015 Public Warrants”). Each 2015 Public Warrant entitled the holder to purchase one-half of one share of Common Stock at a price of $ 5.75 per half share (or $ 11.50 per whole share), subject to adjustment. On January 24, 2020, the Company delivered a notice (the "Redemption Notice") to redeem all of its 2015 Public Warrants that remained unexercised on February 24, 2020. As further described in the Redemption Notice and permitted under the Warrant Agreement, holders of these warrants who exercised them following the date of the Redemption Notice were required to do so on a cashless basis. From January 1, 2020 through January 24, 2020, 796,610 warrants were exercised for cash, resulting in the Company receiving cash proceeds of $ 4.6 million and the Company issuing 398,305 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. After January 24, 2020 through February 24, 2020, 5,836,048 warrants were exercised on a cashless basis. An aggregate of 1,097,162 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock was issued in connection with these exercises. On February 24, 2020, the Company completed the redemption of 38,509 remaining warrants under the Redemption Notice for $ 0.01 per warrant. No Public Warrants remain outstanding.
2015 Private Warrants
DEAC also issued warrants to purchase its Common Stock in a private placement concurrently with its initial public offering (the “2015 Private Warrants”). Each 2015 Private Warrant entitled the holder to purchase one-half of one share of Common Stock at a price of $ 5.75 per half share (or $ 11.50 per whole share), subject to adjustment. Additionally, if held by certain original investors (or their permitted assignees), the 2015 Private Warrants could be exercised on a cashless basis and are not subject to redemption. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, 3,055,000 2015 Private Warrants were repurchased for $ 25.5 million and cancelled. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2021, 9,655,000 warrants were exercised on a cashless basis, resulting in the issuance of 2,939,898 shares of Common Stock. As a result of these transactions, no 2015 private warrants remain outstanding.
21
2018 Warrants
In connection with the Modular Space Holdings ("ModSpace") acquisition in 2018, WillScot issued warrants to purchase approximately 10.0 million shares of Common Stock (the "2018 Warrants") to former shareholders of ModSpace. Each 2018 Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $ 15.50 per share, subject to potential adjustment. The 2018 Warrants expire on November 29, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 223,310 of these 2018 Warrants were repurchased for $ 2.3 million and cancelled. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 2,981,195 2018 Warrants were exercised on a cashless basis, resulting in the issuance of 1,372,548 shares of common stock. At September 30, 2021, 6,525,736 2018 Warrants were outstanding.
The Company accounted for its warrants in the following ways: (i) the 2015 Public Warrants as liabilities through their final redemption in February 2020, (ii) the 2015 Private Warrants as liabilities through their final repurchase or exercise in May 2021, and (iii) the 2018 Warrants as liabilities until June 30, 2020, the date all issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock were cancelled. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, the 2018 Warrants were equity classified.
The Company determined the following fair values for the outstanding common stock warrants recorded as liabilities:
(in thousands)
September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
2015 Private Warrants N/A $ 77,404
NOTE 12 – Income Taxes
The Company recorded $ 6.6 million and $ 36.0 million of income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $ 66.7 million and $ 66.2 million of income tax benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was 9.8 % and 29.5 %, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 91.7 % and ( 1,247.5 )%, respectively.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2021 differs from the US federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the reversal of approximately $ 12.8 million in reserves for uncertain tax positions (“UTP”) due to the expiration of relevant statutes of limitation. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 differs from the US federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the permanent add-backs related to fair value accounting on the Company’s warrants and executive compensation with an offset related to the discrete tax benefit from the reversal of reserves for UTP.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2020 is different from the US statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of a pre-tax loss approximately equal to the discrete tax benefit from the reversal of the Company’s valuation allowance on net operating losses prior to the merger with Mobile Mini and the reversal of reserves for UTP due to the expiration of statutes of limitations. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 is different from the US statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of discrete benefits from the reversal of valuation allowances and reserves for UTP.
NOTE 13 - Fair Value Measures
The fair value of financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
The Company utilizes the suggested accounting guidance for the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Observable inputs, other than Level 1 inputs in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions
The Company has assessed that the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables, and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts. Based on the borrowing rates currently available for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities, the fair value of finance leases at September 30, 2021 approximate their respective book values.
Prior to their redemption, the Company’s 2015 Public Warrants traded in active markets. When classified as liabilities, warrants traded in active markets with sufficient trading volume represent Level 1 financial instruments as they are publicly traded in active markets and thus have observable market prices which are used to estimate the fair value adjustments for the related common stock warrant liabilities. When classified as liabilities, warrants not traded in active markets, or traded with insufficient volume, represent Level 3 financial instruments that are valued using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value adjustments for the related common stock warrant liabilities.

As of September 30, 2021, the carrying values of the ABL Facilities, the 2025 Secured Notes, and the 2028 Secured Notes include $ 34.0 million, $ 8.9 million, and $ 7.7 million, respectively, of unamortized debt issuance costs, which are presented as a direct reduction of the corresponding liability. As of December 31, 2020, the carrying value of the ABL Facilities, the 2025 Secured Notes, and the 2028 Secured Notes includes $ 40.8 million, $ 12.9 million, and $ 8.4 million, respectively, of unamortized debt issuance costs, which are presented as a direct reduction of the corresponding liability.
The carrying value of the ABL Facilities, excluding debt issuance costs, approximates fair value as the interest rates are variable and reflective of current market rates. The fair value of the 2025 Secured Notes and the 2028 Secured Notes is based on their last trading price at the end of each period obtained from a third party. The classification and the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities designated as hedges in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are disclosed in Note 16.

Level 3 Disclosures
When the 2015 Private Warrants and 2018 Warrants were classified as liabilities, the Company utilized a Black Scholes option-pricing model to value the warrants at each reporting period and transaction date, with changes in fair value recognized in the statements of operations. The estimated fair value of the common stock warrant liability was determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in the pricing model were assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimated the volatility of its ordinary shares based on historical volatility that matched the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants was assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate was based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates to remain at zero.
The 2018 Warrants were reclassified to equity at June 30, 2020, the date all issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock were cancelled.

NOTE 14 - Restructuring
Restructuring costs include charges associated with exit or disposal activities that meet the definition of restructuring under FASB ASC Topic 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations (“ASC 420”). The Company's restructuring plans are generally country or region specific and are typically completed within a one-year period. Restructuring costs incurred under these plans include (i) one-time termination benefits related to employee separations, (ii) contract termination costs, and (iii) other related costs associated with exit or disposal activities, including but not limited to, costs for consolidating or closing facilities other than lease costs accounted for under ASC 842. Costs related to the integration of acquired businesses that do not meet the definition of restructuring under ASC 420, such as employee training costs, duplicate facility costs and professional services expenses, are included within SG&A expense.
The following is a summary of the activity in the Company’s restructuring accruals for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, which primarily relate to employee costs:
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended

Non-cash movements ( 1,442 ) 133 ( 7,211 ) 116
Ending balance $ 949 $ 2,082 $ 949 $ 2,082
The restructuring charges during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are driven by employee termination costs as a result of the elimination of positions due to the Merger. The restructuring charges during the three months ended September 30, 2020 are primarily driven by termination costs as a result of the Merger, and restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are primarily driven by employee termination costs due to reductions in force in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and termination costs as a result of the Merger.
24
The restructuring non-cash movements during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily represent stock compensation costs recognized as a result of the modification of certain equity awards associated with the Transition, Separation and Release Agreement entered into on February 25, 2021 with the Company's former President and Chief Operating Officer.
Segments ( as defined in Note 18 )
The $ 1.9 million of restructuring charges for the three months ended September 30, 2021 includes $ 0.1 million of charges related to the NA Modular segment, $ 0.4 million of charges related to the NA Storage segment, and $ 1.4 million of unallocated charges.
The $ 3.9 million of restructuring charges for the three months ended September 30, 2020 includes $ 0.3 million of charges related to the NA Modular segment, $ 3.3 million of charges related to the NA Storage segment and $ 0.3 million of charges related to the UK Storage segment.
The $ 12.0 million of restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 includes $ 1.6 million of charges related to the NA Modular segment, $ 3.2 million of charges related to the NA Storage segment, and $ 7.2 million of unallocated charges.
The $ 4.5 million of restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 includes $ 0.9 million of charges pertaining to the NA Modular segment, $ 3.3 million of charges related to the NA Storage segment and $ 0.3 million of charges related to the UK Storage segment.
NOTE 15 - Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to the Merger, stock awards were granted under the WillScot Corporation 2017 Incentive Award Plan (the "2017 Incentive Plan"), which included Restricted Stock Awards ("RSAs") and Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs"). On June 24, 2020, WillScot's stockholders approved the WillScot Mobile Mini 2020 Incentive Award Plan ("2020 Incentive Plan") to take effect pending completion of the Merger. The plan amended and restated in its entirety the 2017 Incentive Plan. As a result, all historical and future incentive awards to the Company's Board of Directors, executive officers and employees, as determined by the Company's Compensation Committee ("the Comp Committee"), are granted under the 2020 Incentive Plan. The 2020 Incentive Plan is administered by the Comp Committee. Under the 2020 Incentive Plan, the Comp Committee may grant an aggregate of 6,488,988 shares of Common Stock in the form of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, RSAs, RSUs, performance compensation awards and stock bonus awards. Stock-based payments, including the grant of stock options, RSAs and RSUs, are subject to service-based vesting requirements, and expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.
Stock-based compensation expense includes grants of stock options, time-based RSUs ("Time-Based RSUs") and performance-based RSUs ("Performance-Based RSUs", together with Time-Based RSUs, the "RSUs"). The 2020 Incentive Plan continues the former Market-Based RSUs renamed as "Performance-Based RSUs." RSUs are recognized in the financial statements based on their fair value. In addition, stock-based payments to non-executive directors include grants of RSAs. Time-Based RSUs and RSAs are valued based on the intrinsic value of the difference between the exercise price, if any, of the award and the fair market value of WillScot Mobile Mini's Common Stock on the grant date. Performance-Based RSUs are valued based on a Monte Carlo simulation model to reflect the impact of the Performance-Based RSUs market condition. The probability of satisfying a market condition is considered in the estimation of the grant-date fair value for Performance-Based RSUs and the compensation cost is not reversed if the market condition is not achieved, provided the requisite service has been provided.

Certain Performance-Based RSUs cliff vest based on achievement of the relative total stockholder return ("TSR") of the Company's Common Stock as compared to the TSR of the constituents in an index at the grant date over the performance period of three years. For certain 2021 grants, the TSR of the Company's Common Stock is compared to the TSR of the constituents in the S&P 400 Index. The target number of RSUs may be adjusted from 0 % to 200 % based on the TSR attainment levels defined by the Company's Compensation Committee. The 100 % target payout is tied to performance at the 50 % percentile, with a payout curve ranging from 0 % (for performance less than the 25 % percentile) to 200 % (for performance above the 85 % percentile). For grants in 2020 and prior, the TSR of the Company's Common Stock is compared to the TSR of constituents in the Russell 3000 Index. The target number of RSUs may be adjusted from 0 % to 150 % based on the TSR attainment levels defined by the Company's Compensation Committee. The 100 % target payout is tied to performance at the

For 555,790 Performance-Based RSUs granted in 2021, the awards cliff vest based on achievement of specified share prices of the Company's Common Stock at annual measurement dates over performance periods of 4.5 to 4.8 years. The target number of RSUs may be adjusted from 0 to 1,333,334 based on the stock price attainment levels defined by the Company's Compensation Committee. The 555,790 RSU target payout is tied to a stock price of $ 47.50 , with a payout ranging from 0 RSUs (for a stock price less than $ 42.50 ) to 1,333,334 RSUs (for a stock price of $ 60.00 or greater).

NOTE 16 - Derivatives
On November 6, 2018, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement (the “Swap Agreement”) with a financial counterparty that effectively converts $ 400.0 million in aggregate notional amount of variable-rate debt under the Company’s ABL Facility into fixed-rate debt. The Swap Agreement will terminate on May 29, 2022. Under the terms of the Swap Agreement, the Company receives a floating rate equal to one-month LIBOR and makes payments based on a fixed rate of 3.06 % on the notional amount. The receive rate under the terms of the Swap Agreement was 0.08 % and 0.15 % at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
The Swap Agreement was designated and qualified as a hedge of the Company’s exposure to changes in interest payment cash flows created by fluctuations in variable interest rates on the ABL Facility.

The location and the fair value of derivative instruments designated as hedges, at the respective balance sheet dates, were as follows:

Cash Flow Hedges:
Interest rate swap Accrued expenses $ 8,380 $ 11,619
Interest rate swap Other non-current liabilities $ — $ 5,308
The fair value of the interest rate swap is based on dealer quotes of market forward rates, a Level 2 input on the fair value hierarchy, and reflects the amount that the Company would receive or pay as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, for contracts involving the same attributes and maturity dates.

NOTE 17 - Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company assesses these matters on a case-by-case basis as they arise and establishes reserves as required. As of September 30, 2021, with respect to these outstanding matters, the Company believes that the amount or range of reasonably possible loss will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcome of such matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties.
NOTE 18 - Segment Reporting
The Company operates in four reportable segments as follows: North America Modular Solutions ("NA Modular"), North America Storage Solutions ("NA Storage"), United Kingdom Storage Solutions ("UK Storage") and Tank and Pump Solutions ("Tank and Pump"). Total assets for each reportable segment are not available because the Company utilizes a centralized approach to working capital management. Transactions between reportable segments are not significant.
In connection with the Merger, the Company determined its reportable segments as discussed above and retrospectively adjusted prior year's presentation to conform to the current presentation of reportable segments.
The Company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest (income) expense, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization. The Company reflects the further adjustments to EBITDA ("Adjusted EBITDA") to exclude certain non-cash items and the effect of what the Company considers transactions or events not related to its core business operations. The Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") evaluates business segment performance utilizing Adjusted EBITDA as shown in the reconciliation of the Company’s consolidated net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA below. Management believes that evaluating segment performance excluding such items is meaningful because it provides insight with respect to the intrinsic operating results of the Company.
The Company also regularly evaluates gross profit by segment to assist in the assessment of its operational performance. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to be the more important metric because it more fully captures the business performance of the segments, inclusive of indirect costs.
Reportable Segments
The following tables set forth certain information regarding each of the Company’s reportable segments fo r the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Consistent with the financial statements, the segment results do not include Mobile Mini's operations prior to July 1, 2020. Please refer to the Management Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this document, for pro forma results inclusive of Mobile Mini's financial results for periods prior to the Merger date.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, stock-based compensation expense reported in the Statement of Cash Flows included these charges.
NOTE 19 - Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to WillScot Mobile Mini by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. The shares of Common Stock issued as a result of the vesting of RSUs and RSAs as well as the exercise of stock options or redemption of warrants were included in EPS based on the weighted average number of days in which they were vested and outstanding during the period.
Prior to June 30, 2020, the Company had shares of Class B Common Stock which had no rights to dividends or distributions made by the Company and, in turn, were excluded from the EPS calculation. On June 30, 2020, the Sapphire Exchange was completed, and all shares of Class B Common Stock were cancelled, and Sapphire Holdings received 10,641,182 shares of Common Stock.
Diluted EPS is computed similarly to basic EPS, except that it includes the potential dilution that would occur if dilutive securities were exercised. Effects of potentially dilutive securities are presented only in periods in which they are dilutive. When liability-classified warrants are in the money and the impact of their inclusion on diluted EPS is dilutive, diluted EPS also assumes share settlement of such instruments through an adjustment to net income available to common stockholders for the fair value (gain) loss on common stock warrant liabilities and inclusion of the number of dilutive shares in the denominator.
