The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim reporting, which are less than those required for annual reporting. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position of Core Molding Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Core Molding Technologies” or the “Company”) at June 30, 2020 , and the results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 . The Company has reclassified certain prior-year amounts to conform to the current-year's presentation. The “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, should be read in conjunction with these consolidated financial statements.

Core Molding Technologies and its subsidiaries operate in the composites market as one operating segment as a molder of thermoplastic and thermoset structural products. The Company's operating segment consists of two component reporting units, Core Traditional and Horizon Plastics. The Company produces and sells molded products for varied markets, including medium and heavy-duty trucks, automobiles, marine, construction and other commercial markets. The Company offers customers a wide range of manufacturing processes to fit various program volume and investment requirements. These processes include compression molding of sheet molding compound ("SMC"), bulk molding compounds ("BMC"), resin transfer molding ("RTM"), liquid molding of dicyclopentadiene ("DCPD"), spray-up and hand-lay-up, glass mat thermoplastics ("GMT"), direct long-fiber thermoplastics ("D-LFT") and structural foam and structural web injection molding ("SIM"). Core Molding Technologies has its headquarters in Columbus, Ohio, and operates seven production facilities in Columbus and Batavia, Ohio; Gaffney, South Carolina; Winona, Minnesota; Matamoros and Escobedo, Mexico; and Cobourg, Ontario, Canada. All produce structural composite products.

2. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates, due to the uncertainty around the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other factors.

Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Going Concern: Under FASB ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern,” management is required to evaluate conditions or events as related to uncertainties that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related financial disclosures, as applicable. Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As further discussed in Note 11, "Debt", as of June 30, 2020, the Company was not in compliance with the leverage and fixed charge coverage ratio requirements under the Company's Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated January 16, 2018 (the “A/R Credit Agreement”), with KeyBank National Association as the administrative agent (the "Administrative Agent") and various other financial institutions thereto as lenders (the "Lenders").

On March 13, 2020, the Company amended the Forbearance Agreement and entered into the First Amendment to the Forbearance

Table of Contents

Agreement (the “First Amended Forbearance Agreement”) with the Lenders. The First Amended Forbearance Agreement provided that the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall forbear from the exercise of rights and remedies pursuant to the loan documents described in the A/R Credit Agreement through May 29, 2020, as long as the Company satisfies the conditions set forth in the First Amended Forbearance Agreement. See additional detail in Note 11, "Debt".

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic several of the Company’s major customers suspended operations during April and May 2020 due to reduced demand and the impact of government regulations and mandates. Potential new lenders required Company’s customers to resume operations before proceeding with refinancing. On May 29, 2020, the Company amended the First Amended Forbearance Agreement and entered into the Second Amendment to the Forbearance Agreement (the “Second Amended Forbearance Agreement”) with the Lenders. The Second Amended Forbearance Agreement provided that the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall forbear from the exercise of rights and remedies pursuant to the loan documents described in the A/R Credit Agreement through September 30, 2020, as long as the Company satisfies the conditions set forth in the Amended Forbearance Agreement. See additional detail in Note 11, "Debt".

As a result of non-compliance with the A/R Credit Agreement, the Company’s remaining borrowings under the A/R Credit Agreement, consisting of $36,000,000 in borrowings under the revolving credit commitment and the loan commitments, were classified as a current liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020 . As a result, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $12,345,000 as of June 30, 2020 . If the Lenders were to call the loans or demand repayment of all existing borrowings, this could result in the Company being unable to meet its working capital obligations.

The Company has executed term sheets with new lenders to obtain financing to refinance the A/R Credit Agreement. Closing of the new financing is subject to normal closing conditions including completion of business and legal due diligence, asset appraisals, environmental reports, negotiated loan documents, and final credit committee approval. While the Company has executed term sheets, the Company will not have firm commitments until the completion of all closing conditions and therefore there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing. As there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to close its new financing, substantial doubt exists as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The Company's consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments, if any, that might arise from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Management implemented an operational turnaround plan starting in December of 2018 and successfully improved operational performance including improved equipment uptime, improved employee retention and reduced premium freight costs for expediting shipments to customers. Even with the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic reductions in sales and partial shutdown of operations, the Company’s financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2020 reflect the operational improvements implemented in 2019 as the Company returned to operational profitability. Management believes that the operational turnaround is complete and is now focused on continuous improvement and operational excellence. Management has made, or is in the process of making, the following continuous improvement actions which will further improve financial performance at its operating facilities:


•	Implemented quality management systems that provide for continual improvement, defect prevention and reduction of variation and waste in manufacturing processes


•	Improved inventory management systems to reduce stock outage events which cause downtime and labor inefficiency


•	Implemented the improved mold and waterjet fixture change procedures to reduce production equipment downtime.


•	Conducted value add/value engineer projects with customers to remove waste from the operating process and reduce cost


•	Implementation of focused problem solving to improve quality and reduce scrap costs


•	Implemented cost saving measures and actions to align controllable spending and labor workforce to reduced sales volumes in the current market as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic


•	Implemented technical training programs specific to the Company’s products and processes


•	Improved free cash flow through improved terms with customers and vendors


•	Utilized the Kaizen techniques, process mapping and multi-functional problem solving teams to improve operational performance and reduce waste

The Company’s improved operational performance and free cash flows has resulted in a reduction of borrowings under the A/R Credit Agreement for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of $14,258,000 .

The Company has a tax receivable of $5,688,000 as of June 30, 2020 , due to tax law changes made by the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") which will allow the Company to carryback tax net operating losses. (See Note 12, "Income Taxes") The Company has completed the required filing with the Internal Revenue Service to claim the tax refund and expects to receive the payment prior to September 30, 2020 . The funds from the utilization of the net operating losses will provide additional financial resources for the Company to operate the business and refinance its existing debt.

Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes revenue from two streams, product revenue and tooling revenue. Product revenue is earned from the manufacture and sale of sheet molding compound and thermoset and thermoplastic products. Revenue from product sales is generally recognized as products are shipped, as the Company transfers control to the customer and is entitled to payment upon shipment. In certain circumstances, the Company recognizes revenue from product sales when products are produced and the customer takes control at our production facility.

Tooling revenue is earned from manufacturing multiple tools, molds and assembly equipment as part of a tooling program for a customer. Given that the Company is providing a significant service of producing highly interdependent component parts of the tooling program, each tooling program consists of a single performance obligation to provide the customer the capability to produce a single product. Based on the arrangement with the customer, the Company recognizes revenue either at a point in time or over time. When the Company does not have an enforceable right to payment, the Company recognizes tooling revenue at a point in time. In such cases, the Company recognizes revenue upon customer acceptance, which is when the customer has legal title to the tools.

Certain tooling programs include an enforceable right to payment. In those cases, the Company recognizes revenue over time based on the extent of progress towards completion of its performance obligation. The Company uses a cost-to-cost measure of progress for such contracts because it best depicts the transfer of value to the customer and also correlates with the amount of consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to the customer. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress, progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenues are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred.

Accounts Receivable Allowances: Management maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. The Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $ 109,000 and $50,000 at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 , respectively.

Management also records an allowance for estimated customer chargebacks for returns, price discounts and adjustments, premium freight and expediting costs and customer production line disruption costs resulting from late deliveries. At times, customers have asserted a right to significant production line disruption charges to recover damages as a result of late delivery. The Company typically works with its customers to minimize disruption charges, validate damages and negotiate resolution. The Company records accruals for customer chargebacks when a valid charge is probable and the amount of the charge can be reasonably estimated. Should customer chargebacks fluctuate from the estimated amounts, additional allowances may be necessary. The Company reduced accounts receivable for chargebacks by $ 148,000 at June 30, 2020 and $ 476,000 at December 31, 2019 .

Inventories: Inventories, which include material, labor and manufacturing overhead, are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The inventories are accounted for using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method of determining inventory costs. Inventory quantities on-hand are regularly reviewed, and where necessary, provisions for excess and obsolete inventory are recorded based on historical and anticipated usage. The Company has recorded an allowance for slow moving and obsolete inventory of $ 823,000 at June 30, 2020 and $ 898,000 at December 31, 2019 .

Contract Assets/Liabilities: Contract assets and liabilities represent the net cumulative customer billings, vendor payments and revenue recognized for tooling programs. For tooling programs where net revenue recognized and vendor payments exceed customer billings, the Company recognizes a contract asset. For tooling programs where net customer billings exceed revenue recognized and vendor payments, the Company recognizes a contract liability. Customer payment terms vary by contract and can range from progress payments based on work performed or one single payment once the contract is completed. The Company has recorded contract assets of $ 61,000 as of June 30, 2020 and $ 888,000 at December 31, 2019 . Contract assets are generally classified as current within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 , the Company recognized no impairments on contract assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 , the Company recognized $729,000 amount of revenue from contract liabilities outstanding as of December 31, 2019 .

Income Taxes: The Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets include a net non-current deferred tax asset of $2,026,000 for the Canadian and Mexican tax jurisdictions and a net non-current deferred tax liability of $517,000 for the U.S. tax jurisdiction at June 30, 2020 . The Company evaluates the balance of deferred tax assets that will be realized based on the premise that the Company is more likely than not to realize deferred tax benefits through the generation of future taxable income. For more information, refer to Note 12, "Income Taxes", of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 .

Derivative Instruments: Derivative instruments are utilized to manage exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates on long term debt obligations. All derivative instruments are formally documented as cash flow hedges and are recorded at fair value at each reporting period. Gains and losses related to currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps are

Table of Contents

deferred and recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders' Equity and then subsequently recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss) when the hedged item affects net income. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a hedge, if any, is recognized in income. For additional information on derivative instruments, see Note 14, "Fair Value of Financial Instruments".

Long-Lived Assets: Long-lived assets consist primarily of property, plant and equipment and definite-lived intangibles. The recoverability of long-lived assets is evaluated by an analysis of operating results and consideration of other significant events or changes in the business environment. The Company evaluates whether impairment exists for property, plant and equipment on the basis of undiscounted expected future cash flows from operations before interest. There was no impairment of the Company's long-lived assets for the six months ended June 30, 2020 or June 30, 2019 .

Goodwill and Other Intangibles: The Company evaluates goodwill annually on December 31 to determine whether impairment exists, or at interim periods if an indicator of possible impairment exists. As a result of the Horizon Plastics acquisition on January 16, 2018 and the status of its integration, the Company established two reporting units, Core Traditional and Horizon Plastics. The annual impairment tests of goodwill may be completed through qualitative assessments, however the Company may elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to a quantitative impairment test for any reporting unit in any period. The Company may resume the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any subsequent period.

Due to the Company's financial performance and continued depressed stock price, the Company performed a quantitative analysis for both of its reporting units at September 30, 2019 . During 2019, the Company incurred a loss of margin in its Horizon Plastics reporting unit caused by selling price decreases that the Company has not been able to fully offset with material cost reductions. As a result of the quantitative analysis, the Company concluded that the carrying value of Horizon Plastics was greater than the fair value, which resulted in a goodwill impairment charge of $ 4,100,000 at September 30, 2019 representing 19% of the goodwill related to the Horizon Plastics reporting unit.

There were no indicators of impairment for the six months ended June 30, 2020 that would trigger additional analysis; however, should the Company experience a prolonged suspension of operations due to COVID-19, the Company may incur goodwill and intangible impairment charges in the future.

Self-Insurance: The Company is self-insured with respect to its Columbus and Batavia, Ohio; Gaffney, South Carolina; Winona, Minnesota and Brownsville, Texas for medical, dental and vision claims and Columbus and Batavia, Ohio for workers’ compensation claims, all of which are subject to stop-loss insurance thresholds. The Company is also self-insured for dental and vision with respect to its Cobourg, Canada location. The Company has recorded an estimated liability for self-insured medical, dental, vision and worker’s compensation claims incurred but not reported at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 of $ 901,000 and $ 1,203,000 , respectively.

Post-retirement benefits: The Company records an accrual for post-retirement costs associated with the health care plan sponsored by the Company for certain employees. Should actual results differ from the assumptions used to determine the reserves, additional provisions may be required. In particular, increases in future healthcare costs above the assumptions could have an adverse effect on the Company's operations. The effect of a change in healthcare costs is described in Note 13, "Post Retirement Benefits", of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company had a liability for post retirement healthcare benefits based on actuarially computed estimates of $ 9,187,000 at June 30, 2020 and $ 9,160,000 at December 31, 2019 .

Government subsidies: The Company received $ 1,391,000 in government subsidies during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company accounted for government subsidies in accordance with International Accounting Standards 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance . The Company recorded the assistance in selling, general and administrative expenses and determined that there is reasonable assurance all conditions attached to the assistance were met and the grants would be received. The government subsidies consisted of the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy and the Shared Work Programs of Ohio, South Carolina and Minnesota.

3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Current expected credit loss (CECL)

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses,” which changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments, entities will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that will replace today’s “incurred loss” model and generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. For available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, entities will measure credit losses in a manner similar to current practice, except that the losses will be recognized as an allowance. Subsequent to issuing ASU 2016-13, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” for the purpose of clarifying certain aspects of ASU 2016-13. ASU 2018-19 has the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2016-13. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments,” which is effective with the adoption of ASU 2016-13. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326),” which is also effective with the adoption of ASU 2016-13. In November 2019, the FASB voted to delay the implementation date for certain companies, including those that qualify as a smaller reporting company under SEC rules, until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We will adopt this ASU on its effective date of January 1, 2023. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or presentation thereof.

Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (Topic 848). The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to transactions affected by reference rate (e.g., LIBOR) reform if certain criteria are met, for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The ASU is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. We will evaluate transactions or contract modifications occurring as a result of reference rate reform and determine whether to apply the optional guidance on an ongoing basis.

4. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share using the two-class method for amounts attributable to the Company's common shares.

5. MAJOR CUSTOMERS

The Company had five major customers during the six months ended June 30, 2020 , Navistar, Inc. (“Navistar”), Volvo Group North America, LLC (“Volvo”), Universal Forest Products, Inc. (“UFP”), PACCAR, Inc. (“PACCAR”) and BRP, Inc. (“BRP”). Major customers are defined as customers whose sales individually consist of more than ten percent of total sales during any annual or interim reporting period in the current year. The loss of a significant portion of sales to these customers would have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company.

The following table presents sales revenue for the above-mentioned customers for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 :

7. LEASES

The Company has operating leases with fixed payment terms for certain buildings and warehouses. The Company's leases have remaining lease terms of less than one year to four years, some of which include options to extend the lease for five years. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets, and operating lease liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

The Company used the applicable incremental borrowing rate at implementation date to measure lease liabilities and ROU assets. The incremental borrowing rate used by the Company was based on baseline rates and adjusted by the credit spreads commensurate with the Company’s secured borrowing rate. At each reporting period when there is a new lease initiated, the Company will utilize its incremental borrowing rate to perform lease classification tests on lease components and to measure ROU assets and lease liabilities.

The components of lease expense were as follows:

Credit Agreement

On January 16, 2018, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "A/R Credit Agreement") with KeyBank National Association as administrative agent and various financial institutions party thereto as lenders (the "Lenders"). Pursuant to the terms of the A/R Credit Agreement (i) the Company may borrow revolving loans in the aggregate principal amount of up to $ 40,000,000 (the “U.S. Revolving Loans”) from the Lenders and term loans in the aggregate principal amount of up to $ 32,000,000 from the Lenders, (ii) the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Horizon Plastics International, Inc., (the "Subsidiary") may borrow revolving loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $ 10,000,000 from the Lenders (which revolving loans shall reduce the availability of the U.S. Revolving Loans to the Company on a dollar-for-dollar basis) and term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $ 13,000,000 from the Lenders, (iii) the Company obtained a Letter of Credit Commitment of $ 250,000 , of which $ 160,000 has been issued and (iv) the Company repaid the outstanding term loan balance of $6,750,000 . The Credit

Table of Contents

Agreement is secured by a guarantee of each U.S. and Canadian subsidiary of the Company, and by a lien on substantially all of the present and future assets of the Company and its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries, except that only 65% of the stock issued by Corecomposites de Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V. has been pledged.

Concurrent with the closing of the A/R Credit Agreement the Company borrowed the $ 32,000,000 term loan and $ 2,000,000 from the U.S. Revolving Loan and the Subsidiary borrowed the $ 13,000,000 term loan and $ 2,500,000 from revolving loans to provide $ 49,500,000 of funding for the acquisition of Horizon Plastics. Interest is payable monthly at one month LIBOR plus a basis point margin of 700 basis points with a LIBOR floor of 100 basis points.

On March 14, 2019, the Company entered into the first amendment (“First Amendment”) to the A/R Credit Agreement (as amended by the First Amendment, the "Amended Credit Agreement") with the Lenders. Pursuant to the terms of the First Amendment, the Company and Lenders agreed to modify certain terms of the A/R Credit Agreement. These modifications included (1) implementation of an availability block on the U.S. Revolving Loans reducing availability from $ 40,000,000 to $32,500,000 , (2) modification to the definition of EBITDA to add back certain one-time expenses, (3) waiver of non-compliance with the leverage covenant as of December 31, 2018 and modification of the leverage ratio definition and covenant to eliminate testing of the leverage ratio until December 31, 2019, (4) waiver of non-compliance with the fixed charge covenant as of December 31, 2018 and modification of the fixed charge coverage ratio definition and covenant requirement, (5) implementation of a capital expenditure spend limit of $ 7,500,000 during the first six months of 2019 and $ 12,500,000 for the full year 2019, (6) an increase of the applicable interest margin spread for existing term and revolving loans, and (7) an increase in the commitment fees on any unused U.S. Revolving Loans.

On November 22, 2019, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement (the "Forbearance Agreement") with the Lenders. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, the Borrowers and the Lenders acknowledged and confirmed that an event of default occurred under the A/R Credit Agreement resulting from the Borrowers failure to maintain the required Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the A/R Credit Agreement) for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2019. The Forbearance Agreement provided that the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall forbear from the exercise of rights and remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents described in the A/R Credit Agreement through March 13, 2020, as long as the Company satisfies the conditions set forth in the Forbearance Agreement, including, (i) the Borrowers shall remain current on all loan payments during the forbearance period, (ii) on or before December 6, 2019, the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall each receive a copy of a report of Huron Consulting Group containing findings and observations in respect of the businesses and operations of the Company and the Borrowers shall deliver a strategic alternative assessment in respect of the Borrowers’ operations and financing, (iii) on or before December 15, 2019, the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall each receive a copy of appraisals of machinery and equipment and inventory appraisals, and the Borrowers shall have determined and proposed a new capital structure to the Administrative Agent and Lenders, (iv) on or before February 14, 2020, the Borrowers shall have obtained a definitive, written commitment from involved parties and/or lenders providing the basis for implementation of a new capital structure, and (v) on or before March 13, 2020, the Borrowers shall have closed on a new capital structure, acceptable to the Administrative Agents and Lenders. The Forbearance Agreement also implemented a new availability block with respect to the U.S. Revolving Loans portion of the A/R Credit Agreement, reducing availability from $32,500,000 to $28,000,000 and increasing the applicable margin for existing term and revolving loans, as well as increasing the commitment fees on any unused U.S. Revolving Loans.

On March 13, 2020, the Company amended the Forbearance Agreement and entered into the First Amendment to the Forbearance Agreement (the “First Amended Forbearance Agreement”) with the Lenders. Pursuant to the terms of the First Amended Forbearance Agreement, the Company and Lenders agreed to modify certain terms of the Forbearance Agreement and extend the Forbearance Agreement through May 29, 2020. The modifications include (1) a reduction in the U.S. Revolving Loan to $25,000,000 with an availability block of $5,000,000 which can be borrowed with the approval of the lenders, (2) a change of interest rate to LIBOR plus 650 basis points, (3) forbearing compliance with the leverage covenant and fixed charge covenant through May 29, 2020, and (4) implementation of a capital expenditure spend limit of $3,500,000 from the effective date of the First Amended Forbearance Agreement through May 29, 2020.

On April 24, 2020 the Company entered into a finance agreement with Leaf Capital Funding of $175,000 for equipment. The parties agreed to a fixed interest rate of 550 basis point and a term of 60 months. The amount outstanding at June 30, 2020 was $ 167,000 of which, $135,000 was classified as long term debt.

Table of Contents

income tax, depreciation and amortization (“YTD-EBITDA”) of not less than $5,000,000, measured upon delivery of Company’s July 2020 financial statements and also upon delivery of Company’s August 2020 financial statements, with YTD-EBITDA determined based on consolidated EBITDA, (3) a change of interest rate to LIBOR rate plus 700 basis points with a LIBOR floor of 100 basis points, (4) on or before July 15, 2020 the Borrowers shall have obtained executed term sheets from involved parties and/or lenders, (5) on or before September 30, 2020 , the Borrowers shall have closed on a new capital structure, (6) forbearing compliance with the leverage covenant and fixed charge covenant through September 30, 2020 , and (7) implementation of a capital expenditure spend limit of $3,000,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 . Capitalized terms used in this paragraph but not defined shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Seconded Amended Forbearance Agreement.

As a result of non-compliance with the A/R Credit Agreement, the Company’s remaining borrowings under the A/R Credit Agreement, consisting of $36,000,000 under the revolving credit commitment and the term loan commitments, were classified as a current liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020. As a result, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $12,345,000 as of June 30, 2020. If the Lenders were to call the loans or demand repayment of all existing borrowings, this could result in the Company being unable to meet its working capital obligations.

The Company has unblocked maximum availability of $20,000,000 of variable rate revolving loans of which $0 is outstanding as of June 30, 2020 .

Bank Covenants

The Company is required to meet certain financial covenants included in the A/R Credit Agreement with respect to leverage ratios, fixed charge ratios and capital expenditures. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in default with its fixed charge coverage and leverage ratio covenants associated with the loans made under the A/R Credit Agreement as described above. As a result of this default the Company and the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders entered into a Second Amended Forbearance Agreement to address the non-compliance and establish milestones for the Company related to restructuring of its existing debt.

The Company has executed term sheets with new lenders to obtain financing to refinance the A/R Credit Agreement. Closing of the new financing is subject to normal closing conditions including completion of business and legal due diligence, asset appraisals, environmental reports, negotiated loan documents, and final credit committee approval. While the Company has executed term sheets, the Company will not have firm commitments until completion of all closing conditions and therefore there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing. As there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to close its new financing, substantial doubt exists as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The Company's consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments, if any, that might arise from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements that became effective January 18, 2018 and continue through January 2023, one of which was designated as a cash flow hedge for $ 25,000,000 of the $ 32,000,000 term loan to the Company mentioned above and the other designated as a cash flow hedge for $ 10,000,000 of the $ 13,000,000 term loan to the Subsidiary mentioned above. Under these agreements, the Company will pay a fixed rate of approximately 2.49% to the counterparty and receives 30 day LIBOR for both cash flow hedges. The fair value of the interest rate swap was a liability of $1,428,000 and $706,000 at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 , respectively. While the Company is exposed to credit loss on its interest rate swaps in the event of non-performance by the counterparty to the swap, management believes that such non-performance is unlikely to occur given the financial resources of the counterparty.

12. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets include a net non-current deferred tax asset of $2,026,000 for the Canadian and Mexican tax jurisdictions and a net non-current deferred tax liability of $517,000 for the U.S. tax jurisdiction at June 30, 2020 . The Company evaluates the balance of deferred tax assets that will be realized based on the premise that the Company is more likely than not to realize deferred tax benefits through the generation of future taxable income. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 , the Company had no liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company does not anticipate that unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change within the next twelve months.

Income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2020 is estimated to be $ 4,965,000 , approximately 686% of the income before income taxes. Income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was estimated to be $ 830,000 , or approximately 19% of loss before income taxes.

Table of Contents

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and among other things, provides tax relief to businesses. Tax provisions of the CARES Act include the deferral of certain payroll taxes, relief for retaining employees, and other provisions, including allowing net operating losses to be carried back five years versus an indefinite carryforward. The Company has filed with the Internal Revenue Service to carry back net operating losses incurred in 2018 and 2019 under this new law, resulting in an income tax refund of $ 6,155,000 of which $ 466,000 has been received in the second quarter of 2020 and the remaining is expected to be received by September 30th, 2020. An income tax benefit of $ 5,638,000 was realized in the first quarter of 2020. The income tax benefit consists of the reversal of the full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets in the United States for approximately $ 3,267,000 . It also consists of a rate benefit of $ 2,371,000 based on the losses being carried back to years where the Company paid tax at 34% compared to the valuation of the losses being recorded at the 21% current U.S. statutory tax rate.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S., Mexico, Canada and various state jurisdictions. The Company is not subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2016, not subject to Mexican income tax examinations by Mexican authorities for years prior to 2014 and not subject to Canadian tax examinations by Canadian authorities for years prior to 2018.

13. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has a Long Term Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”), as approved by the Company’s stockholders in May 2006 and as amended in May 2015. The 2006 Plan allows for grants to directors and employees of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance shares, performance units and other incentive awards (“Stock Awards”) up to an aggregate of 3,000,000 awards, each representing a right to buy a share of Core Molding Technologies common stock. Stock Awards can be granted under the 2006 Plan through the earlier of December 31, 2025, or the date the maximum number of available awards under the 2006 Plan have been granted.

Restricted Stock

The Company grants shares of its common stock to certain directors, officers, key managers and employees in the form of unvested stock and units (“Restricted Stock”). These awards are recorded at the market value of the Company's common stock on the date of issuance and amortized ratably as compensation expense over the applicable vesting period, which is typically three years. The Company adjusts compensation expense for actual forfeitures, as they occur.

The following summarizes the status of Restricted Stock and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2020 :



	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested balance at December 31, 2019	343,919		$	9.37
Granted	287,750		4.62
Vested	(87,344	)	10.69
Forfeited	(8,385	)	13.72
Unvested balance at June 30, 2020	535,940		$	6.54

At June 30, 2020 and 2019 , there was $ 2,249,000 and $ 2,736,000 , respectively, of total unrecognized compensation expense, related to Restricted Stock granted under the 2006 Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 2.6 years. Total compensation cost related to restricted stock grants for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $ 357,000 and $ 413,000 , respectively, all of which was recorded to selling, general and administrative expense. Total compensation cost related to restricted stock grants for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $ 649,000 and $ 763,000 , respectively, all of which was recorded to selling, general and administrative expense

During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 , employees surrendered no shares and 7,744 shares of the Company's common stock to satisfy income tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted awards.

Stock Appreciation Rights

As part of the Company's 2019 annual grant, Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs") were granted with a grant price of $ 10 . These awards have a contractual term of five years and vest ratably over a period of three years or immediately vest if the recipient is over 65 years of age. These awards are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Table of Contents

A summary of the Company's stock appreciation rights activity for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 is as follows:



	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding as of December 31, 2019	222,112		$	2.57
Granted	—		—
Exercised	—		—
Forfeited	(27,266	)	2.57
Outstanding at the period ended June 30, 2020	194,846		$	2.57
Exercisable at the period ended June 30, 2020	84,300		$	2.57

The average remaining contractual term for those SARs outstanding at June 30, 2020 is 3.8 years, with no aggregate intrinsic value. At June 30, 2020 and 2019 , there was $ 260,000 and $ 478,000 , respectively, of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to SARs. Total compensation cost related to SARs for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $31,000 and $103,000 , respectively, all of which was recorded to selling, general and administrative expense. Total compensation cost related to SARs for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $ 55,000 and $ 103,000 , respectively, all of which was recorded to selling, general and administrative expense. That cost is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.8 years.

14. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. Fair value is measured using the fair value hierarchy and related valuation methodologies as defined in the authoritative literature. This guidance provides a fair value framework that requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment.

The three levels are defined as follows:


Level 1 -	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.


Level 2 -	Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations, in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.


Level 3 -	Significant unobservable inputs reflecting management's own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, debt, interest rate swaps and foreign currency derivatives. Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable carrying values as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts of long-term debt and the revolving line of credit approximate fair value as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 due to the short term nature of the underlying variable rate LIBOR agreements. The Company had Level 2 fair value measurements at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 relating to the Company’s interest rate swaps and foreign currency derivatives.

Derivative and Hedging Activities

Foreign currency derivatives

The Company conducted business in foreign countries and paid certain expenses in foreign currencies; therefore, the Company was exposed to foreign currency exchange risk between the U.S. Dollar and foreign currencies, which could impact the Company’s operating income and cash flows. To mitigate risk associated with foreign currency exchange, the Company entered into forward contracts to exchange a fixed amount of U.S. Dollars for a fixed amount of foreign currency, which will be used to fund future foreign currency cash flows. At inception, all forward contracts are formally documented as cash flow hedges and are measured at fair value each reporting period.

Derivatives are formally assessed both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, to ensure that derivatives used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item. If it is determined that a derivative ceases

Table of Contents

to be a highly effective hedge, or if the anticipated transaction is no longer probable of occurring, hedge accounting is discontinued, and any future mark-to-market adjustments are recognized in earnings. The effective portion of gain or loss is reported in other comprehensive income and the ineffective portion is reported in earnings. The impacts of these contracts were largely offset by gains and losses resulting from the impact of changes in exchange rates on transactions denominated in the foreign currency. As of June 30, 2020 , the Company had no ineffective portion related to the cash flow hedges.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company entered into interest rate swap contracts to fix the interest rate on an initial aggregate amount of $35,000,000 thereby reducing exposure to interest rate changes. The Company pays a fixed rate of approximately 2.49% to the counterparty and receives 30 day LIBOR for both cash flow hedges. At inception, all interest rate swaps were formally documented as cash flow hedges and are measured at fair value each reporting period. See Note 11, "Debt", for additional information.

Description of the Company

Core Molding Technologies and its subsidiaries operate in the composites market as one operating segment as a molder of thermoplastic and thermoset structural products. The Company's operating segment consists of two component reporting units, Core Traditional and Horizon Plastics. The Company offers customers a wide range of manufacturing processes to fit various program volume and investment requirements. These processes include compression molding of sheet molding compound ("SMC"), bulk molding compounds ("BMC"), resin transfer molding ("RTM"), liquid molding of dicyclopentadiene ("DCPD"), spray-up and hand-lay-up, glass mat thermoplastics ("GMT"), direct long-fiber thermoplastics ("D-LFT") and structural foam and structural web injection molding ("SIM"). Core Molding Technologies serves a wide variety of markets, including the medium and heavy-duty truck, marine, automotive, agriculture, construction, and other commercial products. The demand for Core Molding Technologies’ products is affected by economic conditions in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. Core Molding Technologies’ manufacturing operations have a significant fixed cost component. Accordingly, during periods of changing demand, the profitability of Core Molding Technologies’ operations may change proportionately more than revenues from operations.

In 1996, Core Molding Technologies acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Columbus Plastics, a wholly owned operating unit of Navistar’s truck manufacturing division since its formation in late 1980. Columbus Plastics, located in Columbus, Ohio, was a compounder and compression molder of SMC. In 1998, Core Molding Technologies began operations at its second facility in Gaffney, South Carolina, and in 2001, Core Molding Technologies added a production facility in Matamoros, Mexico by acquiring certain assets of Airshield Corporation. As a result of this acquisition, Core Molding Technologies expanded its fiberglass molding capabilities to include the spray up, hand-lay-up open mold processes and RTM closed molding. In 2005, Core Molding Technologies acquired certain assets of the Cincinnati Fiberglass Division of Diversified Glass, Inc., a Batavia, Ohio-based, privately held manufacturer and distributor of fiberglass reinforced plastic components supplied primarily to the heavy-duty truck market. In 2009, the Company completed construction of a new production facility in Matamoros, Mexico that replaced its leased facility. In March 2015, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of CPI Binani, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Binani Industries Limited, located in Winona, Minnesota ("CPI"), which expanded the Company's process capabilities to include D-LFT and diversified the customer base. In January 2018, the Company acquired substantially all the assets of Horizon Plastics, which has manufacturing operations in Cobourg, Ontario and Escobedo, Mexico. This acquisition expanded the Company's customer base, geographic footprint, and process capabilities to include structural foam and structural web molding.

Business Overview

General

The Company’s business and operating results are directly affected by changes in overall customer demand, operational costs and performance and leverage of our fixed cost and selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") infrastructure.

Product sales fluctuate in response to several factors including many that are beyond the Company’s control, such as general economic conditions, interest rates, government regulations, consumer spending, labor availability, and our customers’ production rates and inventory levels. Product sales consist of demand from customers in many different markets with different levels of cyclicality and seasonality. Product sales from the Company's largest market, the North American truck market, which is highly cyclical, accounted for 42% and 60% of the Company’s product revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Operating performance is dependent on the Company’s ability to manage changes in input costs for items such as raw materials, labor, and overhead operating costs. Performance is also affected by manufacturing efficiencies, including items such as on time delivery, quality, scrap, and productivity. Market factors of supply and demand can impact operating costs. In periods of rapid increases or decreases in customer demand, the Company is required to ramp operations activity up or down quickly which may impact manufacturing efficiencies more than in periods of steady demand.

Operating performance is also dependent on the Company’s ability to effectively launch new customer programs, which are typically extremely complex in nature. The start of production of a new program is the result of a process of developing new molds and assembly equipment, validation testing, manufacturing process design, development and testing, along with training and often hiring employees. Meeting the targeted levels of manufacturing efficiency for new programs usually occurs over time as the Company gains experience with new tools and processes. Therefore, during a new program launch period, start-up costs and inefficiencies can affect operating results.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020

Product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased 33% compared to the same period in 2019. Operating income increased from a loss of $ 2,749,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to profit of $ 3,055,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Lower demand from our customers as a result of a cyclical downturn in the truck market and the negative effect of COVID-19 on most customer demand was the primary driver of the sales decrease. The increase in operating income was largely due to improved manufacturing efficiencies and cost savings at several of the Company's facilities and lower operating and SG&A costs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, product sales to truck customers decreased by 53% compared to the same period in 2019, as a result of a cyclical downturn in the truck market and demand deterioration related to COVID-19. According to ACT Research, North American heavy-duty truck production decreased approximately 52% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded net income of $ 5,689,000 , or $0.67 per basic and diluted share, compared with net loss of $ 3,636,000 , or $ (0.47) per basic and diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Net income in 2020 was favorably impacted by $5,638,000, or $0.69 per share, as a result of a tax valuation allowance reversal and a tax rate benefit due to tax law changes that allow the Company to carryback net operating losses to offset taxable income in 2013 through 2015.

Looking forward, the Company anticipates product sales demand to rebound from the second quarter 2020 levels which were negatively impacted by customer shutdowns as a result of COVID-19. Although the Company anticipates product sales demand to rebound, the Company expects an uncertain demand environment associated with COVID-19 and the concurrent unfolding market dynamics. Future developments such as a rebound in the spread of COVID-19, further actions taken by governmental authorities, including potential shutdowns of our operations, or changes in economic conditions could further adversely affect our operations and financial results, as well as those of our customers and suppliers.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 , as Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 totaled $37,806,000 and $81,247,000 , respectively. Included in total sales were tooling project sales of $1,959,000 and $5,807,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 , respectively. These sales are sporadic in nature and fluctuate in regard to scope and related revenue on a period-to-period basis. Product sales, excluding tooling project sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were approximately $35,847,000 compared to $75,440,000 for the same period in 2019 . This decrease in sales is primarily the result of lower cyclical demand from truck customers as well as lower demand from most all customers as a result of COVID-19. As a result of COVID-19, several of the Company’s major customers suspended operations during April and May due to reduced demand and the impact of government regulations and mandates.

Gross margin was approximately 8% of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2020 , compared with 10% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 . The gross margin percentage decrease was due to lower leverage of fixed costs of 7%, offset by a favorable net change in product mix and manufacturing efficiency of 3% and a favorable net change in selling price and material costs of 2%.

Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) was $ 4,109,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 , compared to $ 7,224,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 . The decrease in SG&A expense primarily resulted from Canadian government subsidies enacted as the result of COVID-19 totaling $1,391,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, lower labor and benefit costs of $818,000, lower travel costs of $321,000 and lower outside and professional services of $171,000.

Interest expense totaled $ 1,197,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 , compared to interest expense of $ 869,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 . The increase in interest expense was due to a forbearance amendment fee of $225,000 and higher interest rates during the three months ended June 30, 2020 , when compared to the same period in 2019 .

Income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was 5% of loss before income taxes, and income tax for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was 50% of income before income taxes. The Company’s effective tax rates reflect the effects of taxable income being generated in higher tax rate jurisdictions while taxable losses are being generated in lower tax rate jurisdictions.

Comprehensive loss totaled $1,659,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 , compared to comprehensive loss of $25,000 for the same period ended June 30, 2019 . The decrease was primarily related to lower net income of $2,481,000 offset by a net change in foreign currency hedges of $427,000 and a net change in interest rate swaps of $409,000.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 , as Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 totaled $ 101,830,000 and $ 153,513,000 , respectively. Included in total sales were tooling project sales of $ 4,053,000 and $ 6,621,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 , respectively. These sales are sporadic in nature and fluctuate in regard to scope and related revenue on a period-to-period basis. Product sales, excluding tooling project sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were approximately $ 97,777,000 compared to $ 146,892,000 for the same period in 2019 . This decrease in sales is primarily the result of lower cyclical demand from truck customers as well as lower demand from most all customers as a result of COVID-19. As a result of COVID-19, several of the Company’s major customers suspended operations during April and May due to reduced demand and the impact of government regulations and mandates.

Gross margin was approximately 13% of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 , compared with 8% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 . The gross margin percentage increase was due to a favorable net change in product mix and manufacturing efficiency of 8% and a favorable net change in selling price and material costs of 2%, offset by lower leverage of fixed costs of 3%.

SG&A was $ 10,614,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 , compared to $ 14,390,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 . The decrease in SG&A expense primarily resulted from government subsidies enacted as a result of COVID-19 totaling $1,391,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020, lower outside and professional services of $1,147,000, lower travel costs of $463,000 and lower labor and benefit costs of $277,000.

The increase in interest expense was due to forbearance amendment fees of $450,000 and higher interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2020 , when compared to the same period in 2019 .

Income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was 685% of the income before income taxes, and income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was 19% of the loss before income taxes. The effective rate in 2020 includes the impact of reversing the full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets in the United States of approximately $3,267,000 and a rate benefit of $2,371,000 based on the losses being carried back to years where the Company paid tax at 34% compared to the valuation of the losses being recorded at the 21% current U.S. statutory tax rate.

The Company recorded net income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of $5,689,000 , or $0.67 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $3,636,000 , or $(0.47) per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 .

Comprehensive income totaled $4,321,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 , compared to comprehensive loss of $3,752,000 for the same period ended June 30, 2019 . The increase was primarily related to higher net income of $9,325,000, offset by a net change in foreign currency hedges of $1,277,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, the Company’s primary sources of funds have been cash generated from operating activities and borrowings from third parties. Primary cash requirements are for operating expenses, increases in working capital, capital expenditures, repayment of long-term debt and business acquisitions. The Company from time to time will enter into foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps to mitigate risk of foreign exchange and interest rate volatility. As of June 30, 2020 , the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts totaling $ 3,958,000 , compared to $ 15,358,000 outstanding as of December 31, 2019 . As of June 30, 2020 , the Company also had outstanding interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $ 28,000,000 , compared to $ 29,750,000 outstanding as of December 31, 2019 .

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $18,483,000 . Net income of $ 5,689,000 positively impacted operating cash flows. Non-cash deductions of depreciation and amortization included in net income amounted to $ 5,588,000 . Changes in working capital increased cash provided by operating activities by $ 6,030,000 , which primarily related to changes in accounts receivable and inventory, offset by accounts payable and other prepaid assets.

Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Core Molding Technologies’ primary market risk results from changes in the price of commodities used in its manufacturing operations. Core Molding Technologies is also exposed to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency fluctuations associated with the Mexican Peso and Canadian Dollar. Core Molding Technologies does not hold any material market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes. The Company may use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates.

Core Molding Technologies has the following three items that are sensitive to market risks: (1) Revolving Loans and Term Loans under the Amended A/R Credit Agreement, some of which bear a variable interest rate; (2) foreign currency purchases in which the Company purchases Mexican Pesos and Canadian Dollars with United States Dollars to meet certain obligations; and (3) raw material purchases in which Core Molding Technologies purchases various resins and fiberglass for use in production. The prices and availability of these materials are affected by the prices of crude oil, natural gas and other feedstocks as well as processing capacity versus demand.

Assuming a hypothetical 10% change in short-term interest rates, interest paid on the term loan would have been impacted, as the interest rate on these loans is based upon LIBOR. It would not, however, have a material effect on earnings before tax.

Assuming a hypothetical 10% decrease in the United States Dollar to Mexican Peso and Canadian Dollar exchange rate, the Company would be impacted by an increase in operating costs, which would have an adverse effect on operating margins.

Assuming a hypothetical 10% increase in commodity prices, Core Molding Technologies would be impacted by an increase in raw material costs, which would have an adverse effect on operating margins.

Item 1A.	Risk Factors

The following risk factor supplements the “Risk Factors” section in Part 1, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 (our “Form 10-K"). The following risk factor disclosure should be read in conjunction with the other risk factors set out in our Form 10-K.

The Recent Coronavirus (COVID-19) Outbreak Has Adversely Impacted our Business and Could in the Future Have a Material Adverse Impact on our Business, Results of Operation, Financial Condition and Liquidity, the Nature and Extent of Which is Highly Uncertain

The global outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) has significantly increased economic, demand and operational uncertainty. We have global operations, customers and suppliers, including in countries most impacted by COVID-19. Authorities around the world have taken a variety of measures to slow the spread of COVID-19, including travel bans or restrictions, increased border controls or closures, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business shutdowns and such authorities may impose additional restrictions. We have also taken actions to protect our employees and to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, including embracing guidelines set by the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on social distancing, good hygiene, restrictions on employee travel and in-person meetings, and changes to employee work arrangements including remote work arrangements where feasible. The actions taken around the world to slow the spread of COVID-19 have also impacted our customers and suppliers, and future developments could cause further disruptions to the Company due to the interconnected nature of our business relationships.

The impact of COVID-19 on the global economy and our customers has negatively impacted demand for our products and could continue to do so in the future. Its effects could also result in further disruptions to our manufacturing operations, including higher rates of employee absenteeism, and supply chain disruption, which could continue to negatively impact our ability to meet customer demand. Additionally, the potential deterioration and volatility of credit and financial markets could limit our ability to obtain external financing. The extent to which COVID-19 will impact our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments, including the spread and duration of the virus, potential actions taken by governmental authorities, and how quickly economic conditions stabilize and recover.
