FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Quarterly Report), we make statements concerning our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, strategies, and future events or performance. Such statements are “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and relate to trends and events that may affect our future financial position and operating results. The terms such as “will,” “may,” “could,” “would,” “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “project,” "target," and similar words or expressions, as well as statements in future tense, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made and/or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events and are subject to risks and may differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:

•global economic conditions, including the impact of inflation, recession or recessionary concerns, or slower growth in the markets in which we operate;
•reduced purchases of our products by General Motors Company (GM), Stellantis N.V. (Stellantis), Ford Motor Company (Ford) or other customers;

•lower-than-anticipated market acceptance of new or existing products;
•our ability to attract new customers and programs for new products;
•reduced demand for our customers' products (particularly light trucks and sport utility vehicles (SUVs) produced by GM, Stellantis and Ford);
•risks inherent in our global operations (including tariffs and the potential consequences thereof to us, our suppliers, and our customers and their suppliers, adverse changes in trade agreements, such as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), compliance with customs and trade regulations, immigration policies, political stability or geopolitical conflicts, taxes and other law changes, potential disruptions of production and supply, and currency rate fluctuations);
•supply shortages and the availability of natural gas or other fuel and utility sources in certain regions, labor shortages, including increased labor costs, or price increases in raw material and/or freight, utilities or other operating supplies for us or our customers as a result of pandemic or epidemic illness such as COVID-19, geopolitical conflicts, natural disasters or otherwise;
•a significant disruption in operations at one or more of our key manufacturing facilities;
•risks inherent in transitioning our business from internal combustion engine vehicle products to hybrid and electric vehicle products;
•our ability to realize the expected revenues from our new and incremental business backlog;
•negative or unexpected tax consequences, including those resulting from tax litigation;
•risks related to a failure of our information technology systems and networks, including cloud-based applications, and risks associated with current and emerging technology threats and damage from computer viruses, unauthorized access, cyber attacks and other similar disruptions;
•our suppliers', our customers' and their suppliers' ability to maintain satisfactory labor relations and avoid or minimize work stoppages;
•cost or availability of financing for working capital, capital expenditures, research and development (R&D) or other general corporate purposes including acquisitions, as well as our ability to comply with financial covenants;
•our customers' and suppliers' availability of financing for working capital, capital expenditures, R&D or other general corporate purposes;
•an impairment of our goodwill, other intangible assets, or long-lived assets if our business or market conditions indicate that the carrying values of those assets exceed their fair values;
•liabilities arising from warranty claims, product recall or field actions, product liability and legal proceedings to which we are or may become a party, or the impact of product recall or field actions on our customers;
•our ability or our customers' and suppliers' ability to successfully launch new product programs on a timely basis;
•risks of environmental issues, including impacts of climate-related events, that could result in unforeseen issues or costs at our facilities, or risks of noncompliance with environmental laws and regulations, including reputational damage;
•our ability to maintain satisfactory labor relations and avoid work stoppages;
•our ability to consummate and successfully integrate acquisitions and joint ventures;
•our ability to achieve the level of cost reductions required to sustain global cost competitiveness or our ability to recover certain cost increases from our customers;
•price volatility in, or reduced availability of, fuel;
•our ability to protect our intellectual property and successfully defend against assertions made against us;
•adverse changes in laws, government regulations or market conditions affecting our products or our customers' products;
•our ability or our customers' and suppliers' ability to comply with regulatory requirements and the potential costs of such compliance;
•changes in liabilities arising from pension and other postretirement benefit obligations;
•our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel in key positions and functions; and
•other unanticipated events and conditions that may hinder our ability to compete.

It is not possible to foresee or identify all such factors and we make no commitment to update any forward-looking statement or to disclose any facts, events or circumstances after the date hereof that may affect the accuracy of any forward-looking statement.

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization As a leading global tier 1 automotive and mobility supplier, AAM designs, engineers and manufactures Driveline and Metal Forming technologies to support electric, hybrid, and internal combustion vehicles. Headquartered in Detroit with over 80 facilities in 18 countries, AAM is bringing the future faster for a safer and more sustainable tomorrow.

Basis of Presentation We have prepared the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited but include all normal recurring adjustments, which we consider necessary for a fair presentation of the information set forth herein. Results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2023 presented herein has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for complete consolidated financial statements.
 
In order to prepare the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in our interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Effect of New Accounting Standards and Other Regulatory Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update 2023-07
On November 27, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2023-07 - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280). ASU 2023-07 enhances existing annual segment requirements to include disclosure of significant segment expenses and other segment items by reportable segment that are regularly used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to evaluate segment performance. This guidance also requires annual disclosure of the title and position of the CODM. ASU 2023-07 also expands interim segment disclosure requirements to include all existing annual segment disclosures in addition to the new disclosure requirements for significant segment expenses and other segment items. We adopted this guidance retrospectively on January 1, 2024 for the annual requirements and will adopt the interim requirements on January 1, 2025. We are currently finalizing our assessment of the impact that this standard will have on our segment disclosures.
Accounting Standards Update 2023-09
On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). ASU 2023-09 expands the existing disclosure requirements for the annual rate reconciliation between the effective tax rate and the statutory federal tax rate by requiring reconciliation items to be disaggregated by defined categories and disclosed as both percentages and amounts. ASU 2023-09 also requires the disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction for each annual period presented. This guidance becomes effective at the beginning of our 2025 fiscal year and may be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. We expect to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2025 and we are currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule
In the first quarter of 2024, the SEC adopted "The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors," a rule that expands disclosure requirements, including climate-related risks and financial statement impacts, as well as disclosures related to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The annual disclosures related to climate-related risks and financial statement impacts are required beginning with our 2025 fiscal year and the disclosures related to GHG emissions are required beginning with our 2026 fiscal year. The GHG emissions disclosures are also subject to limited assurance requirements by 2029 and reasonable assurance requirements by 2033. We are currently assessing the impact that this rule will have on our consolidated financial statements. In April 2024, the SEC issued an order staying the rule pending legal review of the petitions challenging the rule. This order does not amend the compliance dates required by the rule.

2. INVENTORIES

We state our inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of our inventories is determined using the first-in first-out method. When we determine that our gross inventories exceed usage requirements, or if inventories become obsolete or otherwise not saleable, we record a provision for such loss as a component of our inventory accounts.

Inventories consist of the following:

Goodwill The following table provides a reconciliation of changes in goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2024:
Consolidated
(in millions)
Balance at December 31, 2023$182.1 
Foreign currency translation(0.9)
Balance at June 30, 2024$181.2 

We conduct our annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of each year, as well as whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate a possible impairment. In performing this test, we utilize a third-party valuation specialist to assist management in determining the fair value of our reporting units. Fair value of each reporting unit is estimated based on a combination of discounted cash flows and the use of pricing multiples derived from an analysis of comparable public companies multiplied against historical and/or anticipated financial metrics of each reporting unit. These calculations contain uncertainties as they require management to make assumptions including, but not limited to, market comparables, future cash flows of the reporting units, and appropriate discount and long-term growth rates. This fair value determination is categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

At June 30, 2024, accumulated goodwill impairment losses were $1,435.5 million. All remaining goodwill is attributable to our Driveline reporting unit.

Other Intangible Assets The following table provides a reconciliation of the gross carrying amount and associated accumulated amortization for AAM's other intangible assets, which are all subject to amortization:

Amortization expense for our intangible assets was $20.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $21.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and was $41.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $42.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Estimated amortization expense for the years 2024 through 2028 is expected to be in the range of approximately $80 million to $85 million per year.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings, Inc. (Holdings) and American Axle & Manufacturing, Inc. (AAM, Inc.) are parties to an amended and restated credit agreement that was entered into on March 11, 2022 and amended on December 13, 2022, June 28, 2023 and May 16, 2024 (as so amended, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) which provides for a term loan A facility (the Term Loan A Facility), term loan B facility (the Term Loan B Facility) and a multi-currency revolving credit facility (the Revolving Credit Facility and together with the Term Loan A Facility and the Term Loan B Facility, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities).

On May 16, 2024, Holdings and AAM, Inc. entered into a refinancing facility agreement (the Refinancing Facility Agreement), that established a new Term Loan B Facility of $648.0 million (the New Term Loan B Facility) and amended the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to, among other things, update the applicable interest rate on the New Term Loan B Facility. The proceeds from the New Term Loan B Facility, together with $2.2 million cash on hand, were used to a) prepay the entire principal amount of the then-outstanding Term Loan B Facility, b) pay all accrued and unpaid interest due under the then-outstanding Term Loan B Facility and c) pay fees, costs and expenses payable in connection with the refinancing of the Term Loan B Facility. The New Term Loan B Facility will mature on December 13, 2029 (TLB Maturity), subject to a springing maturity that will apply if on any date prior to the TLB Maturity any of AAM's senior notes exceed $250 million outstanding within 91 days of the maturity date of such senior notes. In connection with the Refinancing Facility Agreement, we paid $1.7 million of debt refinancing costs and paid accrued interest of $0.5 million relating to the Term Loan B Facility. The terms of the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, including their respective interest rates and maturity dates in the first quarter of 2027, remain unchanged.

On June 28, 2023, Holdings and AAM, Inc. entered into the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the First Amendment), which, among other things, increased the maximum levels of the total net leverage ratio covenant and reduced the minimum levels of cash interest expense coverage ratio covenant for the period from June 28, 2023 through the filing of our second quarter 2024 results, subject to certain conditions (the Amendment Period), modified certain categories of the applicable margin (determined based on the total net leverage ratio of Holdings) for the duration of the Amendment Period with respect to interest rates under the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility, and modified certain covenants restricting the ability of Holdings, AAM, Inc. and certain subsidiaries of Holdings to create, incur, assume, or permit to exist certain additional indebtedness and liens and to make or agree to pay or make certain restricted payments, voluntary payments and distributions. As of the date of the First Amendment, the terms of the then-outstanding Term Loan B Facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, including maturity dates, interest rates and their applicable margins, remained unchanged. We paid debt issuance costs of $3.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023 related to the First Amendment.

At June 30, 2024, we had $892.2 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility. This availability reflects a reduction of $32.8 million primarily for standby letters of credit issued against the facility. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repaid $25.0 million on our Revolving Credit Facility that had been drawn in the fourth quarter of 2022.

As of June 30, 2024, we have prepaid $13.0 million of the outstanding principal on our Term Loan A Facility and $16.9 million of the outstanding principal on our Term Loan B Facility. These payments satisfy our obligation for principal payments under the Term Loan A Facility through the end of 2024 and under the Term Loan B Facility through the end of 2026.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities provide back-up liquidity for our foreign credit facilities. We intend to use the availability of long-term financing under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities to refinance any current maturities related to such debt agreements that are not otherwise refinanced on a long-term basis in their local markets, except where otherwise reclassified to Current portion of long-term debt on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Redemption of 6.25% Notes Due 2026 In the second quarter of 2024, we voluntarily redeemed a portion of our 6.25% Notes due 2026. This resulted in a principal payment of $30.0 million and $0.4 million in accrued interest. We also expensed approximately $0.1 million for the write-off of a portion of the unamortized debt issuance costs that we had been amortizing over the expected life of the borrowing. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, we also completed an open market repurchase of our 6.25% Notes due 2026 of $1.7 million.

Subsequent to June 30, 2024, we voluntarily redeemed an additional portion of our 6.25% Notes due 2026. In August 2024, this resulted in a principal payment of $50.0 million and $1.2 million in accrued interest. We also expensed approximately $0.2 million for the write-off of a portion of the unamortized debt issuance costs that we had been amortizing over the expected life of the borrowing.

Repayment of Tekfor Group Indebtedness In the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repaid $6.6 million of outstanding indebtedness that we assumed upon our acquisition of Tekfor in June 2022.

Foreign credit facilities and Other We utilize local currency credit facilities to finance the operations of certain foreign subsidiaries. At June 30, 2024, $33.7 million was outstanding under our foreign credit facilities, as compared to $51.8 million at December 31, 2023. At June 30, 2024, an additional $82.5 million was available under our foreign credit facilities.

Weighted-Average Interest Rate The weighted-average interest rate of our long-term debt outstanding was 7.0% at June 30, 2024 and 7.1% at December 31, 2023.

5. DERIVATIVES

Our business and financial results are affected by fluctuations in global financial markets, including currency exchange rates and interest rates. Our hedging policy has been developed to manage these risks to an acceptable level based on management’s judgment of the appropriate trade-off between risk, opportunity and cost. We do not hold financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Currency derivative contracts  From time to time, we use foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the effects of fluctuations in exchange rates relating to certain foreign currencies. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had currency forward contracts outstanding with a total notional amount of $281.7 million and $206.9 million, respectively, that hedge our exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates for certain payroll expenses into the first quarter of 2027 and the purchase of certain direct and indirect inventory and other working capital items into the fourth quarter of 2025.

Fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap In the second quarter of 2024, we discontinued our existing €200.0 million fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap that was designated as a cash flow hedge and entered into a new fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap that is designated as a fair value hedge. The fixed-to-fixed cross currency swap reduces the variability of functional currency equivalent cash flows associated with changes in exchange rates on certain Euro-based intercompany loans. At June 30, 2024, we had a notional amount outstanding under the fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap of €175.0 million, which was equivalent to $187.5 million. The fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap hedges our exposure to changes in exchange rates on the intercompany loans through the second quarter of 2027.

Variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps In 2023, we entered into variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps to reduce the variability of cash flows associated with interest payments on our variable rate debt. As of June 30, 2024, we have $700.0 million notional amount hedged in relation to our variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps into the third quarter of 2027, $200.0 million of which continues into the fourth quarter of 2029.

6. FAIR VALUE

ASC 820 - Fair Value Measurement defines fair value 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.” The definition is based on an exit price rather than an entry price, regardless of whether the entity plans to hold or sell the asset. This guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy to prioritize inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

•Level 1:  Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
•Level 2:  Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
•Level 3:  Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop
its own assumptions.

Financial instruments   The estimated carrying value of our financial assets and liabilities that are recognized at fair value on a recurring basis, using available market information and other observable data, are as follows:

     Cash flow hedges - variable-to-fixed interest rate swap3.7 16.5 Level 2

The carrying values of our cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The carrying values of our borrowings under the foreign credit facilities approximate their fair value due to the frequent resetting of the interest rates.

We had previously invested in the equity securities of REE Automotive, which were measured at fair value each reporting period, with changes in fair value reported as a gain or loss within Other income (expense), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we sold all of our remaining equity securities of REE Automotive.

The noncurrent liabilities associated with our pension and other postretirement benefit plans are classified as Postretirement benefits and other long-term liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have a noncurrent pension liability of $70.5 million and $74.7 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have a noncurrent other postretirement benefits liability of $267.1 million and $268.9 million, respectively.

Due to the availability of our pre-funded pension balances (previous contributions in excess of prior required pension contributions), we expect our regulatory pension funding requirements in 2024 to be less than $1.0 million. We expect our cash payments for other postretirement benefit obligations in 2024, net of GM cost sharing, to be approximately $11.0 million.

We record a liability for estimated warranty obligations at the dates our products are sold. These estimates are established using sales volumes and internal and external warranty data where there is no payment history and historical information about the average cost of warranty claims for customers with prior claims. We estimate our costs based on the contractual arrangements with our customers, existing customer warranty terms and internal and external warranty data, which includes a determination of our warranty claims and actions taken to improve product quality and minimize warranty claims. We continuously evaluate these estimates and our customers' administration of their warranty programs. We monitor actual warranty claim data and adjust the liability, as necessary, on a quarterly basis.

11. RESTRUCTURING AND ACQUISITION-RELATED COSTS

In 2022, we completed our acquisition of Tekfor Group (Tekfor) and in 2023 we initiated certain restructuring actions associated with the acquired entities. We expect to incur restructuring costs associated with the acquired entities throughout 2024. In the first quarter of 2024, we initiated a global restructuring program (the 2024 Program) focused on optimizing our cost structure. We expect to incur costs under the 2024 Program into 2026.
A summary of our restructuring activity for the first six months of 2024 and 2023 is shown below:

As part of our restructuring actions, we incurred total severance charges of approximately $4.5 million and $1.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We also incurred total implementation costs of approximately $1.5 million and $9.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Implementation costs consist primarily of plant exit costs.
We incurred $0.5 million of costs related to restructuring actions associated with Tekfor and $5.5 million of costs under the 2024 Program in the six months ended June 30, 2024. We have incurred $2.6 million of total costs related to restructuring actions associated with Tekfor. Approximately $3.9 million of our total restructuring costs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 related to our Driveline segment and these costs were primarily associated with the planned closure of our Glasgow Manufacturing Facility in Scotland, which is part of the 2024 Program. Approximately $1.7 million of our total restructuring costs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 related to our Metal Forming segment, while the remainder were corporate costs. Substantially all of our total restructuring costs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 related to our Metal Forming segment. We expect to incur approximately $10 million to $20 million of total restructuring charges in 2024 associated with Tekfor and the 2024 Program.
The following table represents a summary of integration charges incurred primarily related to our acquisition of Tekfor:

12. INCOME TAXES

We adjust our effective tax rate each quarter based on our estimated annual effective tax rate. We also record the tax impact of certain discrete, unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and the effects of changes in tax laws or rates on deferred tax balances, in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year or a year-to-date loss where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate. The impact of such an exclusion could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a particular quarter, based upon the mix and timing of actual earnings versus annual projections.

Our income tax expense and effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:

 Three Months EndedSix Months Ended
June 30,June 30,
2024202320242023
 (in millions)
   
Income tax expense$17.2 $5.3 $33.1 $5.3 
Effective income tax rate48.6 %39.8 %46.1 %64.6 %

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, in computing our estimated annual effective tax rate, we recorded a valuation allowance against substantially all of the deferred tax asset on the current year estimated disallowed interest expense in the U.S. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $3.2 million related to the release of a valuation allowance in a foreign jurisdiction. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a valuation allowance against a portion of the deferred tax asset on prior year disallowed interest expense in the U.S. and reduced our liability for unrecognized income tax benefits and related interest and penalties as a result of a change in estimate on previously recorded unrecognized tax benefits in certain jurisdictions, resulting in net tax expense of $3.4 million.

Our effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 varies from our effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily as a result of the mix of earnings on a jurisdictional basis and the impact of the discrete items noted above.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, our effective income tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the unfavorable impact related to the disallowed interest expense deductions in the U.S. and tax expense related to global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI), the impact of certain foreign tax rates and the impact of tax credits. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, our effective income tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the unfavorable impact related to the disallowed interest expense deductions in the U.S., net of the impact of a reduction in unrecognized tax benefits, as well as favorable foreign tax rates and the impact of tax credits.

In accordance with the guidance in ASC 740 - Income Taxes, we review the likelihood that we will realize the benefit of deferred tax assets and estimate whether recoverability of our deferred tax assets is "more likely than not" based on the available evidence. If we experience lower than projected earnings in certain jurisdictions in future periods, it is reasonably possible that changes in valuation allowances could be recognized and such changes could be material to our financial statements.

Other Income Tax Matters

During their examination of our 2015 U.S. federal income tax return, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) asserted that income earned by a Luxembourg subsidiary from its Mexican branch operations should be categorized as foreign base company sales income (FBCSI) under Section 954(d) of the Internal Revenue Code and recognized currently as taxable income on our 2015 U.S. federal income tax return. As a result of this assertion, the IRS issued a Notice of Proposed Adjustment (NOPA). AAM disagreed with the NOPA, believes that the proposed adjustment is without merit and contested the matter through the IRS's administrative appeals process. No resolution was reached in the appeals process and, in September 2022, the IRS issued a Notice of Deficiency. The IRS subsequently issued a Notice of Tax Due in December 2022 and AAM paid the assessed tax and interest of $10.1 million in January 2023. We filed a claim for refund for the amount of tax and interest paid related to this matter for the 2015 tax year and, in December 2023, we filed suit in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims.

We believe, after consultation with tax and legal counsel, that it is more likely than not that our structure did not give rise to FBCSI, and it's likely that we will be successful in ultimately defending our position. As such, we have not recorded any impact of the IRS’s proposed adjustment in our condensed consolidated financial statements as of, and for the six months ended, June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, with the exception of the cash payment and associated income tax receivable of $10.1 million paid by AAM to the IRS in 2023. As of June 30, 2024, in the event AAM is not successful in defending its position, the potential additional income tax expense, including estimated interest charges, related to tax years 2015 through 2023, is estimated to be in the range of approximately $300 million to $350 million.

In July 2024, the IRS issued to AAM additional NOPAs for this matter for each of the tax years 2016 through 2019. The issuance of these NOPAs does not impact the aforementioned estimated range of potential income tax expense and interest charges and does not alter AAM’s belief that it is more likely than not that our structure did not give rise to FBCSI and that it’s likely that we will be successful in ultimately defending our position.

Negative or unexpected outcomes of tax examinations and audits, and any related litigation, could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. We will continue to monitor the progress and conclusions of all ongoing audits and other communications with tax authorities and will adjust our estimated liability as necessary. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have recorded a liability for unrecognized income tax benefits and related interest and penalties of $30.4 million and $38.1 million, respectively.

14. SEGMENT REPORTING

Our business is organized into Driveline and Metal Forming segments, with each representing a reportable segment under ASC 280 - Segment Reporting. The results of each segment are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to assess the performance of the segment and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources to the segments.

Our product offerings by segment are as follows:

•Driveline products consist primarily of front and rear axles, driveshafts, differential assemblies, clutch modules, balance shaft systems, disconnecting driveline technology, and electric and hybrid driveline products and systems for light trucks, sport utility vehicles (SUVs), crossover vehicles, passenger cars and commercial vehicles; and
•Metal Forming products consist primarily of engine, transmission, driveline and safety-critical components for traditional internal combustion engine and electric vehicle architectures including light vehicles, commercial vehicles and off-highway vehicles, as well as products for industrial markets.

We use Segment Adjusted EBITDA as the measure of earnings to assess the performance of each segment and determine the resources to be allocated to the segments. We define EBITDA to be earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA for our reportable segments excluding the impact of restructuring and acquisition-related costs, debt refinancing and redemption costs, gains or losses on equity securities, pension curtailment and settlement charges and non-recurring items.

The following tables represent information by reportable segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (in millions):

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references to "we," "our," "us" or "AAM" shall mean collectively (i) American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings, Inc. (Holdings), a Delaware corporation, (ii) American Axle & Manufacturing, Inc. (AAM, Inc.), a Delaware corporation, and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, and, (iii) Metaldyne Performance Group, Inc. (MPG) and its direct and indirect subsidiaries. AAM Inc. and MPG are wholly owned subsidiaries of Holdings.

COMPANY OVERVIEW

As a leading global tier 1 automotive and mobility supplier, AAM designs, engineers and manufactures Driveline and Metal Forming technologies to support electric, hybrid, and internal combustion vehicles. Headquartered in Detroit with over 80 facilities in 18 countries, AAM is bringing the future faster for a safer and more sustainable tomorrow.

Major Customers

We are a primary supplier of driveline components to General Motors Company (GM) for its full-size rear-wheel drive (RWD) light trucks, sport utility vehicles (SUVs), and crossover vehicles manufactured in North America, supplying a significant portion of GM’s rear axle and four-wheel drive and all-wheel drive (4WD/AWD) axle requirements for these vehicle platforms. We also supply GM with various products from our Metal Forming segment. Sales to GM were approximately 41% of our consolidated net sales for the first six months of 2024 and 39% for both the first six months of 2023 and the full year 2023.

We also supply driveline system products to Stellantis N.V. (Stellantis) for programs including the heavy-duty Ram full-size pickup trucks and its derivatives. In addition, we sell various products to Stellantis from our Metal Forming segment. Sales to Stellantis were approximately 14% of our consolidated net sales for the first six months of 2024, 17% for the first six months of 2023 and 16% for the full year 2023.

We are also a supplier to Ford Motor Company (Ford) for driveline system products on certain vehicle programs including the Bronco Sport, Maverick, Edge, Escape and Lincoln Nautilus, and we also sell various products to Ford from our Metal Forming segment. Sales to Ford were approximately 13% of our consolidated net sales for the first six months of 2024, 11% for the first six months of 2023 and 12% for the full year 2023.

No other customer represented 10% or more of consolidated net sales during these periods.

Commercial Matters

In April 2024, one of our largest customers notified AAM that production purchase orders related to a previously announced contract to supply e-Beam axles for a future vehicle program were terminated. We believe that the termination of these purchase orders reflects, in part, the significant uncertainty currently underlying the electric vehicle environment, including volatility in estimated volumes and the timing of production. We have submitted a cancellation claim to recover certain costs incurred in connection with the terminated purchase orders. As of June 30, 2024, we have approximately $70 million of assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet associated with this program, consisting of capitalized engineering, design and development costs and other commercial amounts. As of the date of this filing, we believe we are entitled to claim and recover the full amount. However, due to the nature of the cancellation claim process, and the need to reach final resolution with the customer, the ultimate amount to be recovered is not determinable and could differ materially from the amount included in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Net sales$1,632.3 $1,570.7 $61.6 3.9 %
The increase in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to the second quarter of 2023, primarily reflects increased production volumes on certain vehicle programs that we support, including those associated with program launches in 2024 from our new and incremental business backlog. This increase was partially offset by a reduction of approximately $20 million associated with the effect of metal market pass-throughs to our customers and the impact of foreign exchange related to translation adjustments.

In addition to the increase in R&D expense in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to the second quarter of 2023, the change in SG&A primarily reflects increased compensation-related expense.


29

Amortization of Intangible Assets Amortization expense related to intangible assets was $20.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $21.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Restructuring and Acquisition-Related Costs Restructuring and acquisition-related costs were $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2024 and $7.9 million in the second quarter of 2023. See Note 11 - Restructuring and Acquisition-Related Costs for additional detail regarding our restructuring, acquisition and integration activity.

Operating Income  Operating income was $86.5 million in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to $57.8 million in the second quarter of 2023.  Operating margin was 5.3% in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to 3.7% in the second quarter of 2023. The changes in operating income and operating margin were primarily due to factors discussed in Net Sales, Cost of Goods Sold and SG&A above.

Interest Expense and Interest Income  Interest expense was $47.9 million in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to $50.2 million in the second quarter of 2023. The weighted-average interest rate of our long-term debt outstanding was 7.0% in the second quarter of 2024 and 6.7% in the second quarter of 2023.

Interest income was $6.1 million in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to $5.9 million in the second quarter of 2023.

Debt Refinancing and Redemption Costs  In the second quarter of 2024, we amended our existing Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and established the New Term Loan B Facility. See Note 4 - Long-Term Debt for further detail on the New Term Loan B Facility. As a result, we incurred approximately $0.2 million of debt refinancing and redemption costs during the second quarter of 2024.

In addition, in the second quarter of 2024, we voluntarily redeemed a portion of our 6.25% Notes due 2026. This resulted in a principal payment of $30.0 million and $0.4 million in accrued interest. We also expensed approximately $0.1 million for the write-off of a portion of the unamortized debt issuance costs that we had been amortizing over the expected life of the borrowing.

Gain (Loss) on Equity Securities We had previously invested in the equity securities of REE Automotive, which were measured at fair value each reporting period with changes in fair value reported as a gain or loss within Other income (expense), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. During the second quarter of 2024, we sold all of our remaining equity securities of REE Automotive, resulting in a loss of $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. During the second quarter of 2023, we recognized a gain of $0.3 million as a result of measuring the investment at fair value.

Other Income (Expense), Net Other income (expense), net includes the net effect of foreign exchange gains and losses, our proportionate share of earnings from equity in unconsolidated subsidiaries, and all components of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs other than service cost. Other income (expense), net was expense of $8.8 million in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to expense of $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2023. The change in other income (expense), net was primarily driven by changes in foreign exchange gains and losses in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to the second quarter of 2023.

Income Tax Expense  Income tax expense was $17.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Our effective income tax rate was 48.6% in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to 39.8% in the second quarter of 2023.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, in computing our estimated annual effective tax rate, we recorded a valuation allowance against substantially all of the deferred tax asset on the current year estimated disallowed interest expense in the U.S. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $3.2 million related to the release of a valuation allowance in a foreign jurisdiction.

Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 varies from our effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 primarily as a result of the mix of earnings on a jurisdictional basis and the impact of the discrete items noted above.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our effective income tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the unfavorable impact related to the disallowed interest expense deductions in the U.S. and tax expense related to global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI), the impact of certain foreign tax rates and the impact of tax credits. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, our effective income tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the unfavorable impact related to the disallowed interest expense deductions in the U.S., net of the impact of a reduction in unrecognized tax benefits, as well as favorable foreign tax rates and the impact of tax credits.

Net Income and Earnings Per Share (EPS) Net income was $18.2 million in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to $8.0 million in the second quarter of 2023. Diluted earnings per share was $0.15 per share in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to $0.07 per share in the second quarter of 2023. Net income and EPS for the second quarters of 2024 and 2023 were primarily impacted by the factors discussed above.

Restructuring and Acquisition-Related Costs Restructuring and acquisition-related costs were $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. In 2024, we expect to incur approximately $10 million to $20 million of total restructuring charges. In addition, we expect to incur up to $5 million of integration costs in 2024 associated with our acquisition of Tekfor. See Note 11 - Restructuring and Acquisition-Related Costs for additional detail regarding our restructuring, acquisition and integration activity.

Operating Income  Operating income was $163.5 million in the first six months of 2024 as compared to $93.9 million in the first six months of 2023. Operating margin was 5.0% in the first six months of 2024, as compared to 3.1% in the first six months of 2023. The changes in operating income and operating margin were due primarily to the factors discussed in Net Sales, Cost of Goods Sold and SG&A above.

Interest Expense and Interest Income  Interest expense was $96.9 million in the first six months of 2024 as compared to $100.7 million in the first six months of 2023. The weighted-average interest rate of our long-term debt outstanding was 7.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 6.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2023. We expect our interest expense for the full year 2024 to be approximately $185 million to $195 million.

Interest income was $14.4 million in the first six months of 2024 as compared to $11.8 million in the first six months of 2023.

Debt Refinancing and Redemption Costs  In the first six months of 2024, we amended our existing Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and established the New Term Loan B Facility. See Note 4 - Long-Term Debt for further detail on the New Term Loan B Facility. As a result, we incurred approximately $0.2 million of debt refinancing and redemption costs during the first six months of 2024.

In addition, in the first six months of 2024, we voluntarily redeemed a portion of our 6.25% Notes due 2026. This resulted in a principal payment of $30.0 million and $0.4 million in accrued interest. We also expensed approximately $0.1 million for the write-off of a portion of the unamortized debt issuance costs that we had been amortizing over the expected life of the borrowing.

Gain (Loss) on Equity Securities We had previously invested in the equity securities of REE Automotive, which were measured at fair value each reporting period with changes in fair value reported as a gain or loss within Other income (expense), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we sold all of our remaining equity securities of REE Automotive, resulting in a loss of $0.1 million. The fair value of the REE shares was principally unchanged during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Other Income (Expense), Net Other income (expense), net includes the net effect of foreign exchange gains and losses, our proportionate share of earnings from equity in unconsolidated subsidiaries, and all components of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs other than service cost. Other income (expense), net was expense of $8.8 million in the first six months of 2024, and was income of $3.2 million in the first six months of 2023. The change in other income (expense), net was primarily driven by changes in foreign exchange gains and losses in the first six months of 2024, as compared to the first six months of 2023.

Income Tax Expense Income tax expense was $33.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Our effective income tax rate was 46.1% in the first six months of 2024 as compared to 64.6% in the first six months of 2023.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, in computing our estimated annual effective tax rate, we recorded a valuation allowance against substantially all of the deferred tax asset on the current year estimated disallowed interest expense in the U.S. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $3.2 million related to the release of a valuation allowance in a foreign jurisdiction. In addition, we recorded a valuation allowance against a portion of the deferred tax asset on prior year disallowed interest expense in the U.S. and reduced our liability for unrecognized income tax benefits and related interest and penalties as a result of a change in estimate on previously recorded unrecognized tax benefits in certain jurisdictions, resulting in net tax expense of $3.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Our effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 varies from our effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily as a result of the mix of earnings on a jurisdictional basis and the impact of the discrete items noted above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, our effective income tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the unfavorable impact related to the disallowed interest expense deductions in the U.S. and tax expense related to global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI), the impact of certain foreign tax rates and the impact of tax credits. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, our effective income tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the unfavorable impact related to the disallowed interest expense deductions in the U.S., net of the impact of a reduction in unrecognized tax benefits, as well as favorable foreign tax rates and the impact of tax credits.

Net Income and Earnings Per Share (EPS) Our net income was $38.7 million in the first six months of 2024, as compared to $2.9 million in the first six months of 2023. Diluted EPS was $0.32 per share in the first six months of 2024, as compared to $0.02 per share in the first six months of 2023. Net income and EPS for the first six months of 2024 and 2023 were primarily impacted by the factors discussed above.

SEGMENT REPORTING

Our business is organized into Driveline and Metal Forming segments, with each representing a reportable segment under ASC 280 - Segment Reporting. The results of each segment are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to assess the performance of the segment and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources to the segments.

Our product offerings by segment are as follows:

•Driveline products consist primarily of front and rear axles, driveshafts, differential assemblies, clutch modules, balance shaft systems, disconnecting driveline technology, and electric and hybrid driveline products and systems for light trucks, SUVs, crossover vehicles, passenger cars and commercial vehicles; and
•Metal Forming products consist primarily of engine, transmission, driveline and safety-critical components for traditional internal combustion engine and electric vehicle architectures including light vehicles, commercial vehicles and off-highway vehicles, as well as products for industrial markets.

The following table represents sales by reportable segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (in millions):
Three Months Ended June 30,Six Months Ended June 30,
2024202320242023
Driveline$1,124.5 $1,086.5 $2,230.9 $2,100.3 
Metal Forming653.1 634.2 1,297.2 1,253.3 
Eliminations(145.3)(150.0)(288.9)(289.0)
Net sales$1,632.3 $1,570.7 $3,239.2 $3,064.6 

The increase in Driveline sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily the result of increased production volumes on certain vehicle programs that we support, including those associated with program launches in 2024 from our new and incremental business backlog. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Driveline sales were reduced by approximately $14 million as a result of the effect of metal market pass-throughs to our customers and the impact of foreign exchange translation.

The increase in Metal Forming sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily the result of the timing of commercial recoveries for inflationary costs. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, Metal Forming sales were reduced by approximately $6 million as a result of the effect of metal market pass-throughs to our customers and the impact of foreign exchange translation.

We use Segment Adjusted EBITDA as the measure of earnings to assess the performance of each segment and determine the resources to be allocated to the segments. The amounts for Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows (in millions):

Three Months Ended June 30,Six Months Ended June 30,
2024202320242023
Driveline$151.8 $152.1 $309.2 $266.2 
Metal Forming56.6 39.5 104.8 100.8 
Total segment adjusted EBITDA$208.4 $191.6 $414.0 $367.0 

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the Driveline segment primarily reflects an increase of approximately $9 million attributable to the impact of increased production volumes on certain vehicle programs that we support, which was offset by increased R&D expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, the increase in Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the Driveline segment primarily reflects approximately $33 million attributable to the impact of increased production volumes on certain vehicle programs that we support, with the remainder primarily related to improved operating performance and lower launch costs.
35

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the increase in Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the Metal Forming segment primarily reflects the impact of the timing of commercial recoveries for inflationary costs, partially offset by increased manufacturing costs, primarily labor costs, as well as the impact of production inefficiencies at certain of our locations due, in part, to labor shortages.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP and GAAP Information

In addition to results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) in this MD&A, we have provided certain non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA and Total Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Such information is reconciled to its closest GAAP measure in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules below.

We define EBITDA to be earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Total Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA for our reportable segments excluding the impact of restructuring and acquisition-related costs, debt refinancing and redemption costs, gains or losses on equity securities, pension curtailment and settlement charges and non-recurring items. We believe that EBITDA and Total Segment Adjusted EBITDA are meaningful measures of performance as they are commonly utilized by management and investors to analyze operating performance and entity valuation. Our management, the investment community and the banking institutions routinely use EBITDA and Total Segment Adjusted EBITDA, together with other measures, to measure our operating performance relative to other Tier 1 automotive suppliers and to assess the relative mix of Adjusted EBITDA by segment. We also believe that Total Segment Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure as it is used for operational planning and decision-making purposes. EBITDA and Total Segment Adjusted EBITDA are also key metrics used in our calculation of incentive compensation. These non-GAAP financial measures are not and should not be considered a substitute for any GAAP measure. Additionally, non-GAAP financial measures as presented by AAM may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary liquidity needs are to fund debt service obligations, capital expenditures, R&D spending, including further development of our electrification product portfolio, and working capital requirements, in addition to advancing our strategic initiatives. We believe that operating cash flow, available cash and cash equivalent balances and available borrowing capacity under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities and foreign credit facilities will be sufficient to meet these needs. 

At June 30, 2024, we had nearly $1.5 billion of liquidity consisting of approximately $520 million of cash and cash equivalents, approximately $892 million of available borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and approximately $83 million of available borrowings under foreign credit facilities. We have no significant debt maturities before 2026.

Operating Activities  In the first six months of 2024, net cash provided by operating activities was $160.6 million as compared to $164.9 million in the first six months of 2023. The following factors impacted cash from operating activities in the first six months of 2024, as compared to the first six months of 2023:

Accounts receivable For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we experienced a decrease in cash flow from operating activities of approximately $30 million related to the change in our accounts receivable balance from December 31, 2023 to June 30, 2024, as compared to the change in our accounts receivable balance from December 31, 2022 to June 30, 2023. This change was primarily the result of timing of collections on customer receivables due, in part, to our participation in an early payment program offered by our largest customer, which allows us to sell certain of our North American receivables from this customer to a third party at our discretion. We utilize this program from time to time.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we experienced a decrease in cash flow from operating activities of approximately $54 million related to the change in our accounts payable and accrued expenses balance from December 31, 2023 to June 30, 2024, as compared to the change in our accounts payable and accrued expenses balance from December 31, 2022 to June 30, 2023. This change was primarily attributable to the timing of production and the associated purchases from suppliers within the applicable periods.

Income taxes Income taxes paid, net was $22.8 million in the first six months of 2024, as compared to $40.6 million in the first six months of 2023. During the first six months of 2023, we paid $10.1 million as a result of the Notice of Tax Due that was received from the Internal Revenue Service in the fourth quarter of 2022. See Note 12 - Income Taxes for additional detail regarding the Notice of Tax Due.

Interest paid Interest paid was $101.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $88.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The change in interest paid was primarily the result of increased interest rates on our variable rate debt.

Restructuring and acquisition-related costs For the full year 2024, we expect restructuring and acquisition-related payments in cash flows from operating activities to be between $15 million and $25 million, and we expect the timing of cash payments to approximate the timing of charges incurred.

Pension and other postretirement benefits Due to the availability of our pre-funded pension balances (previous contributions in excess of prior required pension contributions), we expect our regulatory pension funding requirements in 2024 to be less than $1 million. We expect our cash payments for other postretirement benefit obligations in 2024, net of GM cost sharing, to be approximately $11.0 million.


37

Investing Activities  In the first six months of 2024, net cash used in investing activities was $94.9 million as compared to $77.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Capital expenditures were $96.8 million in the first six months of 2024 as compared to $90.7 million in the first six months of 2023. We expect our capital spending in 2024 to be approximately 4% of sales.

In the first six months of 2023, we received $17.0 million of cash reimbursements under our insurance policies associated with machinery and equipment that was damaged or destroyed as a result of the Malvern Fire that occurred in 2020. This cash received has been classified as an investing cash flow based on the nature of the associated loss incurred.

Financing Activities  In the first six months of 2024, net cash used in financing activities was $58.5 million, as compared to $87.4 million in the first six months of 2023. The following factors impacted cash from financing activities in the first six months of 2024, as compared to the first six months of 2023:

Senior Secured Credit Facilities American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings, Inc. (Holdings) and American Axle & Manufacturing, Inc. (AAM, Inc.) are parties to an amended and restated credit agreement that was entered into on March 11, 2022 and amended on December 13, 2022, June 28, 2023 and May 16, 2024 (as so amended, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) which provides for a term loan A facility (the Term Loan A Facility), term loan B facility (the Term Loan B Facility) and a multi-currency revolving credit facility (the Revolving Credit Facility and together with the Term Loan A Facility and the Term Loan B Facility, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities).

On May 16, 2024, Holdings and AAM, Inc. entered into a refinancing facility agreement (the Refinancing Facility Agreement), that established a new Term Loan B Facility of $648.0 million (the New Term Loan B Facility) and amended the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to, among other things, update the applicable interest rate on the New Term Loan B Facility. The proceeds from the New Term Loan B Facility, together with $2.2 million cash on hand, were used to a) prepay the entire principal amount of the then-outstanding Term Loan B Facility, b) pay all accrued and unpaid interest due under the then-outstanding Term Loan B Facility and c) pay fees, costs and expenses payable in connection with the refinancing of the Term Loan B Facility. The New Term Loan B Facility will mature on December 13, 2029 (TLB Maturity), subject to a springing maturity that will apply if on any date prior to the TLB Maturity any of AAM's senior notes exceed $250 million outstanding within 91 days of the maturity date of such senior notes. In connection with the Refinancing Facility Agreement, we paid $1.7 million of debt refinancing costs and paid accrued interest of $0.5 million relating to the Term Loan B Facility. The terms of the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, including their respective interest rates and maturity dates in the first quarter of 2027, remain unchanged.

On June 28, 2023, Holdings and AAM, Inc. entered into the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the First Amendment), which, among other things, increased the maximum levels of the total net leverage ratio covenant and reduced the minimum levels of cash interest expense coverage ratio covenant for the period from June 28, 2023 through the filing of our second quarter 2024 results, subject to certain conditions (the Amendment Period), modified certain categories of the applicable margin (determined based on the total net leverage ratio of Holdings) for the duration of the Amendment Period with respect to interest rates under the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility, and modified certain covenants restricting the ability of Holdings, AAM, Inc. and certain subsidiaries of Holdings to create, incur, assume, or permit to exist certain additional indebtedness and liens and to make or agree to pay or make certain restricted payments, voluntary payments and distributions. As of the date of the First Amendment, the terms of the then-outstanding Term Loan B Facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, including maturity dates, interest rates and their applicable margins, remained unchanged. We paid debt issuance costs of $3.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023 related to the First Amendment.

At June 30, 2024, we had $892.2 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility. This availability reflects a reduction of $32.8 million primarily for standby letters of credit issued against the facility. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repaid $25.0 million on our Revolving Credit Facility that had been drawn in the fourth quarter of 2022.

As of June 30, 2024, we have prepaid $13.0 million of the outstanding principal on our Term Loan A Facility and $16.9 million of the outstanding principal on our Term Loan B Facility. These payments satisfy our obligation for principal payments under the Term Loan A Facility through the end of 2024 and under the Term Loan B Facility through the end of 2026.


38

Redemption of 6.25% Notes Due 2026 In the second quarter of 2024, we voluntarily redeemed a portion of our 6.25% Notes due 2026. This resulted in a principal payment of $30.0 million and $0.4 million in accrued interest. We also expensed approximately $0.1 million for the write-off of a portion of the unamortized debt issuance costs that we had been amortizing over the expected life of the borrowing. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, we also completed an open market repurchase of our 6.25% Notes due 2026 of $1.7 million.

Subsequent to June 30, 2024, we voluntarily redeemed an additional portion of our 6.25% Notes due 2026. In August 2024, this resulted in a principal payment of $50.0 million and $1.2 million in accrued interest. We also expensed approximately $0.2 million for the write-off of a portion of the unamortized debt issuance costs that we had been amortizing over the expected life of the borrowing.

Repayment of Tekfor Group Indebtedness In the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repaid $6.6 million of outstanding indebtedness that we assumed upon our acquisition of Tekfor in June 2022.

Foreign credit facilities We utilize local currency credit facilities to finance the operations of certain foreign subsidiaries. At June 30, 2024, $33.7 million was outstanding under our foreign credit facilities, as compared to $51.8 million at December 31, 2023. At June 30, 2024, an additional $82.5 million was available under our foreign credit facilities.

Treasury stock Treasury stock increased by $2.8 million in the first six months of 2024 to $235.7 million as compared to $232.9 million at year-end 2023, due to the withholding and repurchase of shares of AAM stock to satisfy employee tax withholding obligations due upon the vesting of stock-based compensation.

Subsidiary Guarantees of Registered Debt Securities Our 6.875% Notes, 6.50% Notes, 6.25% Notes, and 5.00% Notes (collectively, the Notes) are senior unsecured obligations of AAM, Inc. (Issuer); all of which are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, by Holdings and substantially all domestic subsidiaries of AAM, Inc. and MPG Inc (Subsidiary Guarantors). Holdings has no significant assets other than its 100% ownership in AAM, Inc. and MPG Inc., and no direct subsidiaries other than AAM, Inc. and MPG Inc.

Each guarantee by Holdings and/or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors is:

•a senior obligation of the relevant Subsidiary Guarantors;
•the unsecured and unsubordinated obligation of the relevant Subsidiary Guarantors; and
•of equal rank with all other existing and future unsubordinated and unsecured indebtedness of the relevant Subsidiary Guarantors.

Each guarantee by a Subsidiary Guarantor provides by its terms that it will be automatically, fully and unconditionally released and discharged upon:

•any sale, exchange or transfer (by merger or otherwise) of the capital stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor, or the sale or disposition of all the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor, which sale, exchange, transfer or disposition is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of the indentures;
•the exercise by the issuer of its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option or the discharge of the issuer’s obligations under the indentures in accordance with the terms of the indentures; or
•the election of the issuer to affect such a release following the date that such guaranteed Notes have an investment grade rating from both Standard & Poor's Ratings Group, Inc, and Moody's Investors Service, Inc.

CYCLICALITY AND SEASONALITY

Our operations are cyclical because they are directly related to worldwide automotive production, which is itself cyclical and dependent on general economic conditions and other factors. Typically, our business is also moderately seasonal as our major OEM customers historically have an extended shutdown of operations (normally 1-2 weeks) in conjunction with their model year changeover and an approximate one-week shutdown in the month of December. Our major OEM customers also occasionally have longer shutdowns of operations (up to six weeks) for program changeovers. Accordingly, our quarterly results may reflect these trends.

LITIGATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

We are involved in, or potentially subject to, various legal proceedings or claims incidental to our business. These include, but are not limited to, matters arising out of product warranties, contractual matters, and environmental obligations. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, at this time we do not believe that any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We file U.S. federal, state and local income tax returns, as well as foreign income tax returns in jurisdictions throughout the world. We are also subject to examinations of these tax returns by the relevant tax authorities. Negative or unexpected outcomes of these examinations and audits, and any related litigation, could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. See Note 12 - Income Taxes for additional discussion regarding examinations and audits of our tax returns and pending litigation.

We are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign environmental and occupational safety and health laws, regulations and ordinances, including those regulating air emissions, water discharge, waste management and environmental cleanup. We will continue to closely monitor our environmental conditions to ensure that we are in compliance with all laws, regulations and ordinances. We have made, and anticipate continuing to make, capital and other expenditures (including recurring administrative costs) to comply with environmental requirements at our current and former facilities. Such expenditures were not significant in the second quarter of 2024.

We are subject to risks of environmental issues, including impacts of climate-related events, that could result in unforeseen disruptions or costs to our operations. We did not experience any climate-related events in the second quarter of 2024 that we believe could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

MARKET RISK

Our business and financial results are affected by fluctuations in global financial markets, including currency exchange rates and interest rates. Our hedging policy has been developed to manage these risks to an acceptable level based on management’s judgment of the appropriate trade-off between risk, opportunity and cost. We do not hold financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Currency Exchange Risk  From time to time, we use foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the effects of fluctuations in exchange rates relating to certain foreign currencies. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had currency forward contracts outstanding with a total notional amount of $281.7 million and $206.9 million, respectively. The potential decrease in fair value of foreign exchange contracts, assuming a 10% adverse change in the foreign currency exchange rates, would be approximately $25.6 million at June 30, 2024 and was $18.8 million at December 31, 2023.

In the second quarter of 2024, we discontinued our existing €200.0 million fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap that was designated as a cash flow hedge and entered into a new fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap that is designated as a fair value hedge. The fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap reduces the variability of functional currency equivalent cash flows associated with changes in exchange rates on certain Euro-based intercompany loans. At June 30, 2024, we had a notional amount outstanding under the fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap of €175.0 million which was equivalent to $187.5 million. The fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap hedges our exposure to changes in exchange rates on the intercompany loans through the second quarter of 2027. The potential decrease in fair value of our new fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap, assuming a 10% adverse change in the foreign currency exchange rates, would be approximately $18.7 million at June 30, 2024. At December 31, 2023, the potential decrease in fair value of our then-outstanding fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap, assuming a 10% adverse change in the foreign currency exchange rates was approximately $22.1 million.

Future business operations and opportunities, including the expansion of our business outside North America, may further increase the risk that cash flows resulting from these global operations may be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates. If and when appropriate, we intend to manage these risks by creating natural hedges in the structure of our global operations, utilizing local currency funding of these expansions and various types of foreign exchange contracts.

Interest Rate Risk  We are exposed to variable interest rates on certain credit facilities. From time to time, we have used interest rate hedging to reduce the effects of fluctuations in market interest rates. In 2023, we entered into variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps to reduce the variability of cash flows associated with interest payments on our variable rate debt. As of June 30, 2024, we have $700.0 million notional amount hedged in relation to our variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps into the third quarter of 2027, $200.0 million of which continues into the fourth quarter of 2029.

The pre-tax earnings and cash flow impact of a one-percentage-point increase in interest rates (approximately 14% of our weighted-average interest rate at June 30, 2024) on our long-term debt outstanding, would be approximately $4.3 million at June 30, 2024 and was approximately $4.4 million at December 31, 2023, on an annualized basis.

Organization As a leading global tier 1 automotive and mobility supplier, AAM designs, engineers and manufactures Driveline and Metal Forming technologies to support electric, hybrid, and internal combustion vehicles. Headquartered in Detroit with over 80 facilities in 18 countries, AAM is bringing the future faster for a safer and more sustainable tomorrow.

Basis of Presentation We have prepared the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited but include all normal recurring adjustments, which we consider necessary for a fair presentation of the information set forth herein. Results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2023 presented herein has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for complete consolidated financial statements.
 
In order to prepare the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in our interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Effect of New Accounting Standards and Other Regulatory Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update 2023-07
On November 27, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2023-07 - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280). ASU 2023-07 enhances existing annual segment requirements to include disclosure of significant segment expenses and other segment items by reportable segment that are regularly used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to evaluate segment performance. This guidance also requires annual disclosure of the title and position of the CODM. ASU 2023-07 also expands interim segment disclosure requirements to include all existing annual segment disclosures in addition to the new disclosure requirements for significant segment expenses and other segment items. We adopted this guidance retrospectively on January 1, 2024 for the annual requirements and will adopt the interim requirements on January 1, 2025. We are currently finalizing our assessment of the impact that this standard will have on our segment disclosures.
Accounting Standards Update 2023-09
On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). ASU 2023-09 expands the existing disclosure requirements for the annual rate reconciliation between the effective tax rate and the statutory federal tax rate by requiring reconciliation items to be disaggregated by defined categories and disclosed as both percentages and amounts. ASU 2023-09 also requires the disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction for each annual period presented. This guidance becomes effective at the beginning of our 2025 fiscal year and may be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. We expect to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2025 and we are currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule
In the first quarter of 2024, the SEC adopted "The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors," a rule that expands disclosure requirements, including climate-related risks and financial statement impacts, as well as disclosures related to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The annual disclosures related to climate-related risks and financial statement impacts are required beginning with our 2025 fiscal year and the disclosures related to GHG emissions are required beginning with our 2026 fiscal year. The GHG emissions disclosures are also subject to limited assurance requirements by 2029 and reasonable assurance requirements by 2033. We are currently assessing the impact that this rule will have on our consolidated financial statements. In April 2024, the SEC issued an order staying the rule pending legal review of the petitions challenging the rule. This order does not amend the compliance dates required by the rule.

Balance at June 30, 2024$181.2 

We conduct our annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of each year, as well as whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate a possible impairment. In performing this test, we utilize a third-party valuation specialist to assist management in determining the fair value of our reporting units. Fair value of each reporting unit is estimated based on a combination of discounted cash flows and the use of pricing multiples derived from an analysis of comparable public companies multiplied against historical and/or anticipated financial metrics of each reporting unit. These calculations contain uncertainties as they require management to make assumptions including, but not limited to, market comparables, future cash flows of the reporting units, and appropriate discount and long-term growth rates. This fair value determination is categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

At June 30, 2024, accumulated goodwill impairment losses were $1,435.5 million. All remaining goodwill is attributable to our Driveline reporting unit.

Other Intangible Assets The following table provides a reconciliation of the gross carrying amount and associated accumulated amortization for AAM's other intangible assets, which are all subject to amortization:

Senior Secured Credit Facilities American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings, Inc. (Holdings) and American Axle & Manufacturing, Inc. (AAM, Inc.) are parties to an amended and restated credit agreement that was entered into on March 11, 2022 and amended on December 13, 2022, June 28, 2023 and May 16, 2024 (as so amended, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) which provides for a term loan A facility (the Term Loan A Facility), term loan B facility (the Term Loan B Facility) and a multi-currency revolving credit facility (the Revolving Credit Facility and together with the Term Loan A Facility and the Term Loan B Facility, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities).

On May 16, 2024, Holdings and AAM, Inc. entered into a refinancing facility agreement (the Refinancing Facility Agreement), that established a new Term Loan B Facility of $648.0 million (the New Term Loan B Facility) and amended the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to, among other things, update the applicable interest rate on the New Term Loan B Facility. The proceeds from the New Term Loan B Facility, together with $2.2 million cash on hand, were used to a) prepay the entire principal amount of the then-outstanding Term Loan B Facility, b) pay all accrued and unpaid interest due under the then-outstanding Term Loan B Facility and c) pay fees, costs and expenses payable in connection with the refinancing of the Term Loan B Facility. The New Term Loan B Facility will mature on December 13, 2029 (TLB Maturity), subject to a springing maturity that will apply if on any date prior to the TLB Maturity any of AAM's senior notes exceed $250 million outstanding within 91 days of the maturity date of such senior notes. In connection with the Refinancing Facility Agreement, we paid $1.7 million of debt refinancing costs and paid accrued interest of $0.5 million relating to the Term Loan B Facility. The terms of the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, including their respective interest rates and maturity dates in the first quarter of 2027, remain unchanged.

On June 28, 2023, Holdings and AAM, Inc. entered into the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the First Amendment), which, among other things, increased the maximum levels of the total net leverage ratio covenant and reduced the minimum levels of cash interest expense coverage ratio covenant for the period from June 28, 2023 through the filing of our second quarter 2024 results, subject to certain conditions (the Amendment Period), modified certain categories of the applicable margin (determined based on the total net leverage ratio of Holdings) for the duration of the Amendment Period with respect to interest rates under the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility, and modified certain covenants restricting the ability of Holdings, AAM, Inc. and certain subsidiaries of Holdings to create, incur, assume, or permit to exist certain additional indebtedness and liens and to make or agree to pay or make certain restricted payments, voluntary payments and distributions. As of the date of the First Amendment, the terms of the then-outstanding Term Loan B Facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, including maturity dates, interest rates and their applicable margins, remained unchanged. We paid debt issuance costs of $3.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023 related to the First Amendment.
At June 30, 2024, we had $892.2 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility. This availability reflects a reduction of $32.8 million primarily for standby letters of credit issued against the facility. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repaid $25.0 million on our Revolving Credit Facility that had been drawn in the fourth quarter of 2022.

As of June 30, 2024, we have prepaid $13.0 million of the outstanding principal on our Term Loan A Facility and $16.9 million of the outstanding principal on our Term Loan B Facility. These payments satisfy our obligation for principal payments under the Term Loan A Facility through the end of 2024 and under the Term Loan B Facility through the end of 2026.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities provide back-up liquidity for our foreign credit facilities. We intend to use the availability of long-term financing under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities to refinance any current maturities related to such debt agreements that are not otherwise refinanced on a long-term basis in their local markets, except where otherwise reclassified to Current portion of long-term debt on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Redemption of 6.25% Notes Due 2026 In the second quarter of 2024, we voluntarily redeemed a portion of our 6.25% Notes due 2026. This resulted in a principal payment of $30.0 million and $0.4 million in accrued interest. We also expensed approximately $0.1 million for the write-off of a portion of the unamortized debt issuance costs that we had been amortizing over the expected life of the borrowing. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, we also completed an open market repurchase of our 6.25% Notes due 2026 of $1.7 million.

Subsequent to June 30, 2024, we voluntarily redeemed an additional portion of our 6.25% Notes due 2026. In August 2024, this resulted in a principal payment of $50.0 million and $1.2 million in accrued interest. We also expensed approximately $0.2 million for the write-off of a portion of the unamortized debt issuance costs that we had been amortizing over the expected life of the borrowing.

Repayment of Tekfor Group Indebtedness In the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repaid $6.6 million of outstanding indebtedness that we assumed upon our acquisition of Tekfor in June 2022.

Foreign credit facilities and Other We utilize local currency credit facilities to finance the operations of certain foreign subsidiaries. At June 30, 2024, $33.7 million was outstanding under our foreign credit facilities, as compared to $51.8 million at December 31, 2023. At June 30, 2024, an additional $82.5 million was available under our foreign credit facilities.

Weighted-Average Interest Rate The weighted-average interest rate of our long-term debt outstanding was 7.0% at June 30, 2024 and 7.1% at December 31, 2023.

5. DERIVATIVES

Our business and financial results are affected by fluctuations in global financial markets, including currency exchange rates and interest rates. Our hedging policy has been developed to manage these risks to an acceptable level based on management’s judgment of the appropriate trade-off between risk, opportunity and cost. We do not hold financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Currency derivative contracts  From time to time, we use foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the effects of fluctuations in exchange rates relating to certain foreign currencies. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had currency forward contracts outstanding with a total notional amount of $281.7 million and $206.9 million, respectively, that hedge our exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates for certain payroll expenses into the first quarter of 2027 and the purchase of certain direct and indirect inventory and other working capital items into the fourth quarter of 2025.

Fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap In the second quarter of 2024, we discontinued our existing €200.0 million fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap that was designated as a cash flow hedge and entered into a new fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap that is designated as a fair value hedge. The fixed-to-fixed cross currency swap reduces the variability of functional currency equivalent cash flows associated with changes in exchange rates on certain Euro-based intercompany loans. At June 30, 2024, we had a notional amount outstanding under the fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap of €175.0 million, which was equivalent to $187.5 million. The fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap hedges our exposure to changes in exchange rates on the intercompany loans through the second quarter of 2027.

Variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps In 2023, we entered into variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps to reduce the variability of cash flows associated with interest payments on our variable rate debt. As of June 30, 2024, we have $700.0 million notional amount hedged in relation to our variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps into the third quarter of 2027, $200.0 million of which continues into the fourth quarter of 2029.

6. FAIR VALUE

ASC 820 - Fair Value Measurement defines fair value 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.” The definition is based on an exit price rather than an entry price, regardless of whether the entity plans to hold or sell the asset. This guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy to prioritize inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

•Level 1:  Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
•Level 2:  Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
•Level 3:  Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop
its own assumptions.

Financial instruments   The estimated carrying value of our financial assets and liabilities that are recognized at fair value on a recurring basis, using available market information and other observable data, are as follows:

The carrying values of our cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The carrying values of our borrowings under the foreign credit facilities approximate their fair value due to the frequent resetting of the interest rates.

We had previously invested in the equity securities of REE Automotive, which were measured at fair value each reporting period, with changes in fair value reported as a gain or loss within Other income (expense), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we sold all of our remaining equity securities of REE Automotive.

The noncurrent liabilities associated with our pension and other postretirement benefit plans are classified as Postretirement benefits and other long-term liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have a noncurrent pension liability of $70.5 million and $74.7 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have a noncurrent other postretirement benefits liability of $267.1 million and $268.9 million, respectively.

Due to the availability of our pre-funded pension balances (previous contributions in excess of prior required pension contributions), we expect our regulatory pension funding requirements in 2024 to be less than $1.0 million. We expect our cash payments for other postretirement benefit obligations in 2024, net of GM cost sharing, to be approximately $11.0 million.

We record a liability for estimated warranty obligations at the dates our products are sold. These estimates are established using sales volumes and internal and external warranty data where there is no payment history and historical information about the average cost of warranty claims for customers with prior claims. We estimate our costs based on the contractual arrangements with our customers, existing customer warranty terms and internal and external warranty data, which includes a determination of our warranty claims and actions taken to improve product quality and minimize warranty claims. We continuously evaluate these estimates and our customers' administration of their warranty programs. We monitor actual warranty claim data and adjust the liability, as necessary, on a quarterly basis.

11. RESTRUCTURING AND ACQUISITION-RELATED COSTS

In 2022, we completed our acquisition of Tekfor Group (Tekfor) and in 2023 we initiated certain restructuring actions associated with the acquired entities. We expect to incur restructuring costs associated with the acquired entities throughout 2024. In the first quarter of 2024, we initiated a global restructuring program (the 2024 Program) focused on optimizing our cost structure. We expect to incur costs under the 2024 Program into 2026.
A summary of our restructuring activity for the first six months of 2024 and 2023 is shown below:

Accrual at June 30, 2024$5.1 $2.0 $7.1 
As part of our restructuring actions, we incurred total severance charges of approximately $4.5 million and $1.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We also incurred total implementation costs of approximately $1.5 million and $9.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Implementation costs consist primarily of plant exit costs.
We incurred $0.5 million of costs related to restructuring actions associated with Tekfor and $5.5 million of costs under the 2024 Program in the six months ended June 30, 2024. We have incurred $2.6 million of total costs related to restructuring actions associated with Tekfor. Approximately $3.9 million of our total restructuring costs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 related to our Driveline segment and these costs were primarily associated with the planned closure of our Glasgow Manufacturing Facility in Scotland, which is part of the 2024 Program. Approximately $1.7 million of our total restructuring costs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 related to our Metal Forming segment, while the remainder were corporate costs. Substantially all of our total restructuring costs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 related to our Metal Forming segment. We expect to incur approximately $10 million to $20 million of total restructuring charges in 2024 associated with Tekfor and the 2024 Program.
The following table represents a summary of integration charges incurred primarily related to our acquisition of Tekfor:

12. INCOME TAXES

We adjust our effective tax rate each quarter based on our estimated annual effective tax rate. We also record the tax impact of certain discrete, unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and the effects of changes in tax laws or rates on deferred tax balances, in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year or a year-to-date loss where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate. The impact of such an exclusion could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a particular quarter, based upon the mix and timing of actual earnings versus annual projections.

Our income tax expense and effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:

 Three Months EndedSix Months Ended
June 30,June 30,
2024202320242023
 (in millions)
   
Income tax expense$17.2 $5.3 $33.1 $5.3 
Effective income tax rate48.6 %39.8 %46.1 %64.6 %

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, in computing our estimated annual effective tax rate, we recorded a valuation allowance against substantially all of the deferred tax asset on the current year estimated disallowed interest expense in the U.S. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $3.2 million related to the release of a valuation allowance in a foreign jurisdiction. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a valuation allowance against a portion of the deferred tax asset on prior year disallowed interest expense in the U.S. and reduced our liability for unrecognized income tax benefits and related interest and penalties as a result of a change in estimate on previously recorded unrecognized tax benefits in certain jurisdictions, resulting in net tax expense of $3.4 million.

Our effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 varies from our effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily as a result of the mix of earnings on a jurisdictional basis and the impact of the discrete items noted above.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, our effective income tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the unfavorable impact related to the disallowed interest expense deductions in the U.S. and tax expense related to global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI), the impact of certain foreign tax rates and the impact of tax credits. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, our effective income tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the unfavorable impact related to the disallowed interest expense deductions in the U.S., net of the impact of a reduction in unrecognized tax benefits, as well as favorable foreign tax rates and the impact of tax credits.

In accordance with the guidance in ASC 740 - Income Taxes, we review the likelihood that we will realize the benefit of deferred tax assets and estimate whether recoverability of our deferred tax assets is "more likely than not" based on the available evidence. If we experience lower than projected earnings in certain jurisdictions in future periods, it is reasonably possible that changes in valuation allowances could be recognized and such changes could be material to our financial statements.
Other Income Tax Matters

During their examination of our 2015 U.S. federal income tax return, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) asserted that income earned by a Luxembourg subsidiary from its Mexican branch operations should be categorized as foreign base company sales income (FBCSI) under Section 954(d) of the Internal Revenue Code and recognized currently as taxable income on our 2015 U.S. federal income tax return. As a result of this assertion, the IRS issued a Notice of Proposed Adjustment (NOPA). AAM disagreed with the NOPA, believes that the proposed adjustment is without merit and contested the matter through the IRS's administrative appeals process. No resolution was reached in the appeals process and, in September 2022, the IRS issued a Notice of Deficiency. The IRS subsequently issued a Notice of Tax Due in December 2022 and AAM paid the assessed tax and interest of $10.1 million in January 2023. We filed a claim for refund for the amount of tax and interest paid related to this matter for the 2015 tax year and, in December 2023, we filed suit in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims.

We believe, after consultation with tax and legal counsel, that it is more likely than not that our structure did not give rise to FBCSI, and it's likely that we will be successful in ultimately defending our position. As such, we have not recorded any impact of the IRS’s proposed adjustment in our condensed consolidated financial statements as of, and for the six months ended, June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, with the exception of the cash payment and associated income tax receivable of $10.1 million paid by AAM to the IRS in 2023. As of June 30, 2024, in the event AAM is not successful in defending its position, the potential additional income tax expense, including estimated interest charges, related to tax years 2015 through 2023, is estimated to be in the range of approximately $300 million to $350 million.

In July 2024, the IRS issued to AAM additional NOPAs for this matter for each of the tax years 2016 through 2019. The issuance of these NOPAs does not impact the aforementioned estimated range of potential income tax expense and interest charges and does not alter AAM’s belief that it is more likely than not that our structure did not give rise to FBCSI and that it’s likely that we will be successful in ultimately defending our position.
Negative or unexpected outcomes of tax examinations and audits, and any related litigation, could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. We will continue to monitor the progress and conclusions of all ongoing audits and other communications with tax authorities and will adjust our estimated liability as necessary. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have recorded a liability for unrecognized income tax benefits and related interest and penalties of $30.4 million and $38.1 million, respectively.

14. SEGMENT REPORTING

Our business is organized into Driveline and Metal Forming segments, with each representing a reportable segment under ASC 280 - Segment Reporting. The results of each segment are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to assess the performance of the segment and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources to the segments.

Our product offerings by segment are as follows:

•Driveline products consist primarily of front and rear axles, driveshafts, differential assemblies, clutch modules, balance shaft systems, disconnecting driveline technology, and electric and hybrid driveline products and systems for light trucks, sport utility vehicles (SUVs), crossover vehicles, passenger cars and commercial vehicles; and
•Metal Forming products consist primarily of engine, transmission, driveline and safety-critical components for traditional internal combustion engine and electric vehicle architectures including light vehicles, commercial vehicles and off-highway vehicles, as well as products for industrial markets.

We use Segment Adjusted EBITDA as the measure of earnings to assess the performance of each segment and determine the resources to be allocated to the segments. We define EBITDA to be earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA for our reportable segments excluding the impact of restructuring and acquisition-related costs, debt refinancing and redemption costs, gains or losses on equity securities, pension curtailment and settlement charges and non-recurring items.

The following tables represent information by reportable segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (in millions):

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Basis of Presentation We have prepared the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited but include all normal recurring adjustments, which we consider necessary for a fair presentation of the information set forth herein. Results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2023 presented herein has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for complete consolidated financial statements.
 
In order to prepare the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in our interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Effect of New Accounting Standards and Other Regulatory Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update 2023-07
On November 27, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2023-07 - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280). ASU 2023-07 enhances existing annual segment requirements to include disclosure of significant segment expenses and other segment items by reportable segment that are regularly used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to evaluate segment performance. This guidance also requires annual disclosure of the title and position of the CODM. ASU 2023-07 also expands interim segment disclosure requirements to include all existing annual segment disclosures in addition to the new disclosure requirements for significant segment expenses and other segment items. We adopted this guidance retrospectively on January 1, 2024 for the annual requirements and will adopt the interim requirements on January 1, 2025. We are currently finalizing our assessment of the impact that this standard will have on our segment disclosures.
Accounting Standards Update 2023-09
On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). ASU 2023-09 expands the existing disclosure requirements for the annual rate reconciliation between the effective tax rate and the statutory federal tax rate by requiring reconciliation items to be disaggregated by defined categories and disclosed as both percentages and amounts. ASU 2023-09 also requires the disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction for each annual period presented. This guidance becomes effective at the beginning of our 2025 fiscal year and may be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. We expect to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2025 and we are currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule
In the first quarter of 2024, the SEC adopted "The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors," a rule that expands disclosure requirements, including climate-related risks and financial statement impacts, as well as disclosures related to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The annual disclosures related to climate-related risks and financial statement impacts are required beginning with our 2025 fiscal year and the disclosures related to GHG emissions are required beginning with our 2026 fiscal year. The GHG emissions disclosures are also subject to limited assurance requirements by 2029 and reasonable assurance requirements by 2033. We are currently assessing the impact that this rule will have on our consolidated financial statements. In April 2024, the SEC issued an order staying the rule pending legal review of the petitions challenging the rule. This order does not amend the compliance dates required by the rule.
