Business and Nature of Operations

As of June 30, 2015 , we have a North American network of 66 ADESA whole car auction sites and 171 IAA salvage vehicle auction sites; in addition, we offer online auctions for both whole car and salvage vehicles. IAA also includes HBC Vehicle Services, which operates from 10 locations in the United Kingdom. Our auctions facilitate the sale of used and salvage vehicles through physical, online or hybrid auctions, which permit Internet buyers to participate in physical auctions. ADESA and IAA are leading, national providers of wholesale and salvage vehicle auctions and related vehicle remarketing services for the automotive industry in North America. ADESA's online service offerings include customized private label solutions powered with software developed by its wholly-owned subsidiary, OPENLANE, that allow our institutional consignors (automobile manufacturers, captive finance companies and other institutions) to offer vehicles via the Internet prior to arrival at the physical auction. Remarketing services include a variety of activities designed to transfer used and salvage vehicles between sellers and buyers throughout the vehicle life cycle. ADESA and IAA facilitate the exchange of these vehicles through an auction marketplace, which aligns sellers and buyers. As an agent for customers, the Company generally does not take title to or ownership of vehicles sold at the auctions. Generally, fees are earned from the seller and buyer on each successful auction transaction in addition to fees earned for ancillary services.

ADESA has the second largest used vehicle auction network in North America, based upon the number of used vehicles sold through auctions annually, and also provides services such as inbound and outbound transportation logistics, reconditioning, vehicle inspection and certification, titling, administrative and collateral recovery services. ADESA is able to serve the diverse and multi-faceted needs of its customers through the wide range of services offered.

IAA is one of the leading providers of salvage vehicle auctions and related services. The salvage auctions facilitate the remarketing of damaged vehicles that are designated as total losses by insurance companies, recovered stolen vehicles for which an insurance settlement with the vehicle owner has already been made, purchased vehicles and older model vehicles donated to charity or sold by dealers in salvage auctions. The salvage auction business specializes in providing services such as inbound transportation logistics, inspections, evaluations, salvage recovery services, titling and settlement administrative services.

AFC is a leading provider of floorplan financing to independent used vehicle dealers and this financing is provided through 115 locations throughout the United States and Canada as of June 30, 2015 . Floorplan financing supports independent used vehicle dealers in North America who purchase vehicles at ADESA, IAA, other used vehicle and salvage auctions and non-auction purchases. In addition to floorplan financing, AFC also provides independent used vehicle dealers with other related services and products, such as vehicle service contracts.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year as a whole. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, generally consisting of normal recurring accruals necessary, for a fair statement of our results of operations, cash flows and financial position for the periods presented. These consolidated financial statements and condensed notes to consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 , as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 18, 2015. The 2014 year-end consolidated balance sheet data included in this Form 10-Q was derived from the audited financial statements referenced above, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

New Accounting Standards

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs . The update requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of being presented as an asset. The new guidance represents a change in accounting principle, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and will require retrospective application. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 605, Revenue Recognition . The new guidance provides clarification on the recognition of revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized. On July 9, 2015, the FASB agreed to delay the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. In accordance with the agreed upon delay, the new guidance is effective for the first annual reporting period and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and will require either retrospective application to each prior reporting period presented or retrospective application with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

Note 2—Acquisitions

In March 2015, ADESA completed the acquisition of Pittsburgh Auto Auction. This acquisition bolsters ADESA’s presence in the eastern region and complements its current buyer base.

In April 2015, ADESA purchased all of the equity interests in MobileTrac LLC (“MobileTrac”). MobileTrac provides retail and wholesale car buyers with instaVIN’s vehicle history reports as well as the instaLEAD and instaDEAL technology through which automotive dealers can attract and structure retail transactions with consumers online. MobileTrac enhances KAR’s portfolio of service offerings to its customers.

In May 2015, AutoVIN, a subsidiary of ADESA, completed the acquisition of the vehicle inspection business from DataScan Field Services (“DataScan”). DataScan utilizes Internet-based technology to perform vehicle inspection services for major auto manufacturers, financial institutions, leasing companies and warranty companies. The network’s broad geographical reach in the U.S. and Canada will provide expanded coverage for inspection customers, and the acquisition also brings new offerings to the AutoVIN portfolio, including warranty claim inspections, certified pre-owned audits and physical damage appraisals.

In May 2015, ADESA purchased all of the issued and outstanding membership interests in AutoNiq, LLC (“AutoNiq”). AutoNiq provides real-time information such as vehicle pricing, history reports and market guides to dealers. Its mobile app allows used car dealers to scan VINs on mobile devices, view auction run lists and access vehicle history reports and market value reports instantly. AutoNiq offers access to valued resources such as CARFAX and AutoCheck, as well as Black Book Daily, NADA guides, Kelley Blue Book and Galves pricing guide information. It also includes a comprehensive wholesale and retail market report for all markets in the United States. AutoNiq enhances KAR’s portfolio of service offerings to its customers.

In June 2015, ADESA (UK) Limited completed the acquisition of HBC Vehicle Services (“HBC”), which specializes in salvage vehicle auctions and related services and is headquartered in Canvey Island, England. HBC provides salvage collection and disposal services for the UK’s top insurance, fleet and accident management companies. HBC conducts business using a variety of sales channels, including online auctions.

Certain of the purchase agreements included contingent payments related to financial results subsequent to the purchase date. The purchased assets included land, buildings, accounts receivable, operating equipment, customer relationships, tradenames, software, inventory, and other intangible assets. Financial results for each acquisition have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

The aggregate purchase price for the businesses acquired in the first six months of 2015 , net of cash acquired, was approximately $124.7 million , which includes estimated contingent payments with a fair value of $9.6 million . The maximum amount of undiscounted contingent payments related to these acquisitions could approximate $18.0 million . The purchase price for the acquired businesses was allocated to acquired assets and liabilities based upon fair values, including $32.0 million to intangible assets, representing the fair value of acquired customer relationships, tradenames and software, which are being amortized over their expected useful lives. The purchase accounting associated with these acquisitions is preliminary, subject to determination of working capital adjustments and final valuation results. The Company does not expect adjustments to the purchase accounting will be material. The acquisitions resulted in aggregate goodwill of $90.0 million . The goodwill is recorded in the ADESA Auctions and IAA reportable segments. The financial impact of these acquisitions, including pro forma financial results, was immaterial to the Company’s consolidated results.

Note 3—Stock and Stock-Based Compensation Plans

We adopted the KAR Auction Services, Inc. 2009 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan ("Omnibus Plan") in December 2009. The Omnibus Plan is intended to provide equity or cash-based awards to our employees. Our stock-based compensation expense has included expense associated with KAR Auction Services, Inc. service and exit option awards, performance-based restricted stock units ("PRSUs") and service-based restricted stock units ("RSUs"). We have classified the KAR Auction Services, Inc. service and exit options, PRSUs and RSUs as equity awards.

In the first six months of 2015, we granted a target amount of approximately 0.2 million PRSUs to certain executive officers and management of the Company. The PRSUs vest if and to the extent that the Company's three year adjusted earnings per share attains certain specified goals. In addition, approximately 0.2 million RSUs were granted to certain executive officers and management of the Company. The RSUs vest in three equal annual installments. The weighted-average grant date fair value of both the PRSUs and the RSUs was $37.02 , which was the average closing price of the Company's common stock on the dates of grant.

The total income tax benefit recognized in the consolidated statement of income for options, PRSUs and RSUs was approximately $1.2 million and $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $2.2 million and $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The following table summarizes our stock-based compensation expense by type of award (in millions) :



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
Service options	$	0.8	$	1.0	$	1.7	$	1.9
Exit options	—		3.8		—		17.3
PRSUs	1.7		0.9		3.0		1.6
RSUs	0.7		—		1.1		—
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	3.2	$	5.7	$	5.8	$	20.8

In March 2015, the vesting criteria for the final 25% of the exit options granted under the KAR Auction Services, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan and the Omnibus Plan was met and as such, the final 25% of the outstanding exit options became exercisable. As of December 31, 2014, all of the compensation expense related to the exit options was recognized.

Share Repurchase Program

In October 2014, the board of directors authorized a repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock, par value $0.01 per share, through October 28, 2016 . Repurchases may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, in accordance with applicable securities laws and regulations, including pursuant to repurchase plans designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing and amount of any repurchases is subject to market and other conditions. As of June 30, 2015 , we had repurchased and retired a total of 614,900 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $36.83 per share.

On August 3, 2015, as part of the authorized program to repurchase common stock noted above, the Company announced that it plans to enter into an accelerated share repurchase agreement under which up to $200 million of the Company’s common stock may be repurchased on an accelerated basis.

Note 4—Net Income Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of net income per share (in millions except per share amounts) :



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
Net income	$	59.5	$	50.8	$	114.0	$	71.5
Weighted average common shares outstanding	141.8		140.0		141.6		139.7
Effect of dilutive stock options and restricted stock awards	2.3		1.8		2.4		1.5
Weighted average common shares outstanding and potential common shares	144.1		141.8		144.0		141.2
Net income per share
Basic	$	0.42	$	0.36	$	0.81	$	0.51
Diluted	$	0.41	$	0.36	$	0.79	$	0.51

Basic net income per share was calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares for the period. Diluted net income per share was calculated consistent with basic net income per share including the effect of dilutive unissued common shares related to our stock-based employee compensation program. The effect of stock options and restricted stock on net income per share-diluted is determined through the application of the treasury stock method, whereby proceeds received by the Company based on assumed exercises are hypothetically used to repurchase our common stock at the average market price during the period. Stock options that would have an anti-dilutive effect on net income per diluted share and PRSUs subject to performance conditions which have not yet been satisfied are excluded from the calculations. No options and approximately 0.4 million options were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and no options and approximately 0.5 million options were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. In addition, approximately 0.3 million and approximately 0.1 million PRSUs were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and approximately 0.3 million and approximately 0.1 million PRSUs were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. Total options outstanding at June 30, 2015 and 2014 were 4.7 million and 6.9 million , respectively.

Note 5—Finance Receivables and Obligations Collateralized by Finance Receivables

AFC sells the majority of its U.S. dollar denominated finance receivables on a revolving basis and without recourse to a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote, consolidated, special purpose subsidiary ("AFC Funding Corporation"), established for the purpose of purchasing AFC's finance receivables. A securitization agreement allows for the revolving sale by AFC Funding Corporation to a group of bank purchasers of undivided interests in certain finance receivables subject to committed liquidity. AFC Funding Corporation had committed liquidity of $1.15 billion for U.S. finance receivables at June 30, 2015 .

In June 2015, AFC and AFC Funding Corporation entered into the Sixth Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase

Agreement (the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”). The Receivables Purchase Agreement increased AFC Funding's U.S.

committed liquidity from $950 million to $1.15 billion and extended the facility's maturity date from June 30, 2016 to June 29,

2018. In addition, the definition of eligible receivables was expanded and the overcollateralization requirement was reduced.

We also have an agreement for the securitization of Automotive Finance Canada Inc.'s ("AFCI") receivables. AFCI's committed facility is provided through a third party conduit (separate from the U.S. facility) and was C$125 million at June 30, 2015 . In June 2015, AFCI entered into the Third Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “Canadian Receivables Purchase Agreement”). The Canadian Receivables Purchase Agreement increased AFCI's committed liquidity from C$100 million to C$125 million and extended the facility's maturity date from June 30, 2016 to June 29, 2018. In addition, the definition of eligible receivables was expanded. The receivables sold pursuant to both the U.S. and Canadian securitization agreements are accounted for as secured borrowings.

AFC's allowance for losses was $8.5 million and $8.0 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.

Proceeds from the revolving sale of receivables to the bank facilities are used to fund new loans to customers. AFC, AFC Funding Corporation and AFCI must maintain certain financial covenants including, among others, limits on the amount of debt AFC and AFCI can incur, minimum levels of tangible net worth, and other covenants tied to the performance of the finance receivables portfolio. The securitization agreements also incorporate the financial covenants of our Credit Facility. At June 30, 2015 , we were in compliance with the covenants in the securitization agreements.

Long-term debt				$	1,727.9		$	1,736.6

Credit Facility

On March 11, 2014, we repaid all principal outstanding and interest due under the Original Credit Agreement and established a three year senior secured term loan facility ("Term Loan B-1"), a seven year senior secured term loan facility ("Term Loan B-2") and a $250 million , five year senior secured revolving credit facility (the "revolving credit facility"), the terms of which are set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 11, 2014. The terms in the Credit Agreement supersede the terms of the Original Credit Agreement. No early termination penalties were incurred by the Company in connection with the refinancing; however, we incurred a non-cash loss on the extinguishment of debt under the Original Credit Agreement of $30.3 million in the first quarter of 2014.

The Credit Facility is available for letters of credit, working capital and general corporate purposes. The Company also pays a commitment fee of 40 basis points, payable quarterly, on the average daily unused amount of the revolving credit facility. The rates on Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2 were 2.81% and 3.50% at June 30, 2015 , respectively.

The Credit Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments and reduction in an amount equal to the net proceeds of certain debt offerings, certain asset sales and certain insurance recovery events. In addition, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, 50% of the net cash proceeds from the sale-leaseback of certain technology and capital equipment were used to prepay $0.9 million and $1.5 million of Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2, respectively, in the second quarter of 2015 . In July 2015, similar net cash proceeds were used to prepay $1.3 million and $2.2 million of Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2, respectively. Each such prepayment is credited to prepay, on a pro rata basis, in order of maturity the unpaid amounts due on the next eight scheduled quarterly installments of Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2 and thereafter to the remaining scheduled quarterly installments of each term loan on a pro rata basis.

The obligations of the Company under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of our domestic subsidiaries (the "Subsidiary Guarantors") and are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, including but not limited to: (a) pledges of and first priority perfected security interests in 100% of the equity interests of certain of the Company's and the Subsidiary Guarantors' domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the equity interests of certain of the Company's and the Subsidiary Guarantors' first tier foreign subsidiaries and (b) perfected first priority security interests in substantially all other tangible and intangible assets of the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor, subject to certain exceptions. The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants that we believe are usual and customary for a senior secured credit agreement. The negative covenants include, among other things, limitations on asset sales, mergers and acquisitions, indebtedness, liens, dividends, investments and transactions with our affiliates. The Credit Agreement also requires us to maintain a maximum leverage ratio, provided there are revolving loans outstanding. We were in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement at June 30, 2015 .

There were no borrowings on the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014 , respectively. However, we had related outstanding letters of credit in the aggregate amount of $28.6 million and $25.1 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively, which reduce the amount available for borrowings under the credit facility.

Fair Value of Debt

As of June 30, 2015 , the estimated fair value of our long-term debt amounted to $1,749.3 million . The estimates of fair value are based on broker-dealer quotes for our debt as of June 30, 2015 . The estimates presented on long-term financial instruments are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized in a current market exchange.

Note 7—Derivatives

We are exposed to interest rate risk on our variable rate borrowings. Accordingly, interest rate fluctuations affect the amount of interest expense we are obligated to pay. We use interest rate derivatives with the objective of managing exposure to interest rate movements, thereby reducing the effect of interest rate changes and the effect they could have on future cash flows. Currently, interest rate cap agreements are used to accomplish this objective.

•

In August 2013, we purchased four interest rate caps for an aggregate amount of approximately $2.2 million with an aggregate notional amount of $1.2 billion to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our variable rate Credit Facility when three-month LIBOR exceeds 1.0% . The interest rate cap agreements each had an effective date of August 16, 2013 and each mature on August 16, 2015. The unamortized portion of the $2.2 million investment is recorded in “Other assets” on the consolidated balance sheet and is being amortized over the remaining life of the interest rate caps to interest expense.


•	In April 2015, we purchased two interest rate caps for an aggregate amount of approximately $0.7 million with an aggregate notional amount of $400 million to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our variable rate Credit Facility when three-month LIBOR exceeds 1.5% . The interest rate cap agreements each had an effective date of April 16, 2015 and each mature on March 31, 2017.

We are exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties; however, non-performance is not anticipated. ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging , requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the balance sheet. The fair values of the interest rate derivatives are based on quoted market prices for similar instruments from commercial banks. We have not designated any of the interest rate caps as hedges for accounting purposes. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the interest rate caps are recognized as "Interest expense" in the consolidated statement of income. The balances and activity of our interest rate derivatives were immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 .

Note 8—Commitments and Contingencies

We are involved in litigation and disputes arising in the ordinary course of business, such as actions related to injuries; property damage; handling, storage or disposal of vehicles; environmental laws and regulations; and other litigation incidental to the business such as employment matters and dealer disputes. Management considers the likelihood of loss or the incurrence of a liability, as well as the ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss, in determining loss contingencies. We accrue an estimated loss contingency when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss (or range of possible losses) can be reasonably estimated. Management regularly evaluates current information available to determine whether accrual amounts should be adjusted. Accruals for contingencies including litigation and environmental matters are included in "Other accrued expenses" at undiscounted amounts and exclude claims for recoveries from insurance or other third parties. These accruals are adjusted periodically as assessment and remediation efforts progress, or as additional technical or legal information becomes available. If the amount of an actual loss is greater than the amount accrued, this could have an adverse impact on our operating results in that period. Such matters are generally not, in the opinion of management, likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. There has been no significant change in the legal and regulatory proceedings which were disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 .

Note 10—Segment Information

ASC 280, Segment Reporting , requires reporting of segment information that is consistent with the manner in which the chief operating decision maker operates and views the Company. Our operations are grouped into three operating segments: ADESA Auctions, IAA and AFC, which also serve as our reportable business segments. These reportable business segments offer different services and have fundamental differences in their operations. Beginning in June 2015, the IAA segment includes HBC Vehicle Services, which operates salvage vehicle auctions and related services in the United Kingdom.

The holding company is maintained separately from the three reportable segments and includes expenses associated with the corporate office, such as salaries, benefits and travel costs for the corporate management team, certain human resources, information technology and accounting costs, and certain insurance, treasury, legal and risk management costs. Holding company interest expense includes the interest expense incurred on capital leases and the corporate debt structure. Intercompany charges relate primarily to interest on intercompany debt or receivables and certain administrative costs allocated by the holding company.

In particular, statements made in this report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts (including, but not limited to, expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections regarding the industry, business, future operating results, potential acquisitions and anticipated cash requirements) may be forward-looking statements. Words such as "should," "may," "will," "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Such statements, including statements regarding our future growth; anticipated cost savings, revenue increases and capital expenditures; dividend declarations and payments; common stock repurchases; strategic initiatives, greenfields and acquisitions; our competitive position and retention of customers; and our continued investment in information technology, are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results projected, expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

•	restrictive covenants in our debt agreements;


•	our assumption of the settlement risk for vehicles sold;


•	any impairment to our goodwill or other intangible assets;


•	our self-insurance for certain risks;


•	any losses of key personnel;


•	interruptions to service from our workforce;

Many of these risk factors are outside of our control, and as such, they involve risks which are not currently known that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed or implied herein. The forward-looking statements in this document are made as of the date on which they are made and we do not undertake to update our forward-looking statements.

Our future growth depends on a variety of factors, including our ability to increase vehicle sold volumes and loan transaction volumes, expand our product and service offerings, including information systems development, acquire and integrate additional business entities, manage expansion, control costs in our operations, introduce fee increases, and retain our executive officers and key employees. We cannot predict whether our growth strategy will be successful. In addition, we cannot predict what portion of overall sales will be conducted through online auctions or other remarketing methods in the future and what impact this may have on our auction business.

Overview

We provide whole car auction services in North America and salvage auction services in North America and the United Kingdom. Our business is divided into three reportable business segments, each of which is an integral part of the vehicle remarketing industry: ADESA Auctions, IAA and AFC.

•

The ADESA Auctions segment serves a domestic and international customer base through live and online auctions and through 66 whole car auction facilities in North America that are developed and strategically located to draw professional sellers and buyers together and allow the buyers to inspect and compare vehicles remotely or in person. Through ADESA.com, powered by OPENLANE technology, ADESA offers comprehensive private label remarketing solutions to automobile manufacturers, captive finance companies and other institutions to offer vehicles via the Internet prior to arrival at the physical auction. Vehicles at ADESA's auctions are typically sold by commercial fleet operators, financial institutions, rental car companies, new and used vehicle dealers and vehicle manufacturers and their captive finance companies to franchise and independent used vehicle dealers. ADESA also provides value-added ancillary services including inbound and outbound transportation logistics, reconditioning, vehicle inspection and certification, titling, administrative and collateral recovery services.

•

The IAA segment serves a domestic and international customer base through live and online auctions and through 171 salvage vehicle auction sites in the United States and Canada at June 30, 2015 . IAA also includes HBC Vehicle Services, which operates from 10 locations in the United Kingdom. The salvage auctions facilitate the remarketing of damaged vehicles designated as total losses by insurance companies, charity donation vehicles, recovered stolen (or theft) vehicles and low value used vehicles. The salvage auction business specializes in providing services such as inbound transportation, titling, salvage recovery and claims settlement administrative services.


•	The AFC segment provides short-term, inventory-secured financing, known as floorplan financing, primarily to independent used vehicle dealers. At June 30, 2015 , AFC conducted business at 115 locations in the United States and Canada. The Company also sells vehicle service contracts through Preferred Warranties, Inc. ("PWI").

technology and accounting costs, and certain insurance, treasury, legal and risk management costs. Holding company interest expense includes the interest expense incurred on capital leases and the corporate debt structure. Intercompany charges relate primarily to interest on intercompany debt or receivables and certain administrative costs allocated by the holding company.

Industry Trends

Whole Car

Used vehicles sold in North America through whole car auctions, including online only sales, were approximately 8.2 million, 8.7 million and 9.2 million in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. Industry volumes continue to recover and are moving toward those experienced from 2000-2009, when industry volumes were approximately 9 to 10 million units. Declines in new vehicle sales and lease originations from 2007 to 2009 and declines in repossessions from 2009 to 2012 led to supply shortages in the North American whole car auction industry and resulted in auction volumes below 9 million units for a few years. The supply shortages and resulting decline in industry auction volumes reflected a reduction in units sold by institutional consignors, which was partially offset by an increase in dealer consignment units sold.

We estimate that used vehicle auction volumes in North America, including online only volumes, will be approximately 9.6 million units in 2015, approximately 9.9 million units in 2016 and approximately 10.1 million units in 2017. Our estimates are based on information from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, IHS Automotive, Kontos Total Market Estimates, NAAA's 2014 Annual Review and management estimates. The anticipated improvement is the result of more off-lease, repossessed, rental and dealer consignment vehicles entering the market.

Salvage

Vehicles deemed a total loss by automobile insurance companies represent the largest category of vehicles sold in the salvage vehicle auction industry. The percentage of claims resulting in total losses was approximately 14% in 2014, 2013 and 2012. There is no central reporting system for the salvage vehicle auction industry that tracks the number of salvage vehicle auction volumes in any given year, which makes estimating industry volumes difficult.

Fluctuations in used vehicle and commodity pricing (aluminum, steel, etc.) have an impact on proceeds received in the salvage vehicle auction industry. In times of rising prices, as the industry experienced over the last few years, revenue and gross profit are positively impacted. If used vehicle and commodity prices decrease, as the industry is experiencing now, proceeds, revenue and gross profit at salvage auctions may be negatively impacted, which could adversely affect the level of profitability.

Automotive Finance

AFC works with independent used vehicle dealers to improve their results by providing a comprehensive set of business and financial solutions that leverages its local branches, industry experience and scale, as well as KAR affiliations. Over the last few years, the U.S. independent used vehicle dealer base has consolidated from approximately 36,000 dealers in 2009 to about 35,000 dealers in 2014. During this time, AFC's North American dealer base grew from over 9,700 dealers in 2009 to over 13,700 dealers in 2014 and loan transactions, which includes both loans paid off and loans curtailed, grew from approximately 800,000 in 2009 to approximately 1,445,000 in 2014.

Key challenges for the independent used vehicle dealer include demand for used vehicles, disruptions in pricing of used vehicle inventory and lack of access to consumer financing. These same challenges, to the extent they occur, could result in a material negative impact on AFC's results of operations. A significant decline in used vehicle sales would result in a decrease in consumer auto loan originations and an increased number of dealers defaulting on their loans. In addition, volatility in wholesale vehicle pricing impacts the value of recovered collateral on defaulted loans and the resulting severity of credit losses at AFC.

AFC implemented a number of strategic initiatives in recent years to enhance credit standards, improve portfolio risk management and enhance the customer experience. Additionally, in June 2013, the Company acquired PWI, a vehicle service contract business, as part of its strategy to provide additional services to independent used vehicle dealers. These initiatives, along with the current industry environment, have enabled AFC to increase its penetration of the independent dealer base while maintaining a high level of portfolio quality, evidenced by low levels of net credit losses and a managed portfolio which was over 99 percent current at June 30, 2015 .

Seasonality

The volume of vehicles sold through our auctions generally fluctuates from quarter to quarter. This seasonality is caused by several factors including weather, the timing of used vehicles available for sale from selling customers, the availability and quality of salvage vehicles, holidays, and the seasonality of the retail market for used vehicles, which affects the demand side of the auction industry. Used vehicle auction volumes tend to decline during prolonged periods of winter weather conditions. In addition, mild weather conditions and decreases in traffic volume can each lead to a decline in the available supply of salvage vehicles because fewer traffic accidents occur, resulting in fewer damaged vehicles overall. As a result, revenues and operating expenses related to volume will fluctuate accordingly on a quarterly basis. The fourth calendar quarter typically experiences lower used vehicle auction volume as well as additional costs associated with the holidays and winter weather.

Sources of Revenues and Expenses

Our revenue is derived from auction fees and related services associated with our whole car and salvage auctions, and from dealer financing fees, interest income and other service revenue at AFC. Although auction revenues primarily include the auction services and related fees, our related receivables and payables include the gross value of the vehicles sold.

Our operating expenses consist of cost of services, selling, general and administrative and depreciation and amortization. Cost of services is composed of payroll and related costs, subcontract services, the cost of vehicles sold under purchase contracts, supplies, insurance, property taxes, utilities, service contract claims, maintenance and lease expense related to the auction sites and loan offices. Cost of services excludes depreciation and amortization. Selling, general and administrative expenses are composed of payroll and related costs, sales and marketing, information technology services and professional fees.

Revenue

Revenue from ADESA increased $43.2 million, or 14%, to $345.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $301.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in revenue was primarily a result of a 14% increase in the number of vehicles sold, as well as a slight increase in revenue per vehicle sold, which includes the impact of a decrease in revenues of $7.9 million due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate.

The increase in volume sold was primarily attributable to an increase in institutional volume, including vehicles sold on our online only platform, as well as a 7% increase in dealer consignment units sold for the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2014 . Online sales volume for ADESA represented approximately 40% of the total vehicles sold in the second quarter of 2015 , compared with approximately 38% in the second quarter of 2014 . "Online sales" includes the following: (i) selling vehicles directly from a dealership or other interim storage location (upstream selling); (ii) online solutions that offer vehicles for sale while in transit to auction locations (midstream selling); (iii) simultaneously broadcasting video and audio of the physical auctions to online bidders (LiveBlock ^® ); and (iv) bulletin-board or real-time online auctions (DealerBlock ^® ). Both the upstream and midstream selling represent online only sales, which represent over half of ADESA's online sales volume. ADESA sold approximately 154,000 and 132,000 vehicles through its online only offerings in the second quarter of 2015 and 2014 , respectively, of which approximately 99,000 and 86,000 represented vehicle sales to grounding dealers in the second quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2015 , dealer consignment vehicles represented approximately 51% of used vehicles sold at ADESA physical auction locations, compared with approximately 53% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . Vehicles sold at physical auction locations increased 13% in the second quarter of 2015 , compared with the second quarter of 2014 . The used vehicle conversion percentage at physical auction locations, calculated as the number of vehicles sold as a percentage of the number of vehicles entered for sale at our ADESA auctions, decreased to 57.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with 58.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 .

Total revenue per vehicle sold of approximately $544 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 is comparable with total revenue per vehicle sold of approximately $543 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . Physical auction revenue per vehicle sold increased to $686 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , from $680 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . Physical auction revenue per vehicle sold includes revenue from seller and buyer auction fees and ancillary and other related services, which includes non-auction services. The increase in physical auction revenue per vehicle sold was primarily attributable to an increase in ancillary and other related services revenue. Online only auction revenue per vehicle sold was approximately $99 for both the three months ended June 30, 2015 and the three months ended June 30, 2014 .

Gross Profit

For the three months ended June 30, 2015 , gross profit for ADESA increased $19.1 million, or 14%, to $153.2 million , compared with $134.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . Gross profit for ADESA was 44.4% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The increase in gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with the three months ended June 30, 2014 , was primarily the result of the increase in vehicles sold.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the ADESA segment increased $4.8 million, or 8%, to $67.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $62.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 , primarily due to increases in compensation and incentive compensation-based expense of $2.5 million, selling, general and administrative expenses associated with acquisitions of $1.6 million, professional fees of $1.4 million and marketing expenses of $0.9 million, partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $1.4 million and fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate of $1.3 million.

Revenue

Revenue from IAA increased $24.8 million, or 11%, to $248.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $223.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in revenue was a result of an increase in vehicles sold of approximately 14% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , partially offset by a 3% decrease in revenue per vehicle sold, which includes the impact of a decrease in revenues of $2.4 million due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate. Revenue per vehicle sold was also negatively impacted by lower average auction prices and a decrease in scrap prices. IAA's total loss vehicle inventory has increased approximately 18% at June 30, 2015 , as compared to June 30, 2014 . Vehicles sold under purchase agreements were approximately 7% of total salvage vehicles sold for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with approximately 6% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . Online sales volumes for IAA for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 represented over half of the total vehicles sold by IAA.

Gross Profit

For the three months ended June 30, 2015 , gross profit at IAA increased to $93.5 million , or 37.6% of revenue, compared with $86.8 million , or 38.8% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in gross profit was mainly attributable to an 11% increase in revenue, partially offset by a 13% increase in cost of services related to an increase in branch costs related to volume growth. In addition, the reduction in gross profit on purchase contract vehicles accounted for a 0.6% decrease in IAA's gross profit margin percentage for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

For the three months ended June 30, 2015, HBC Vehicle Services had revenue of approximately $4.3 million and cost of services of approximately $3.9 million. HBC accounted for a 0.5% decrease in IAA's gross profit margin percentage for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses at IAA increased $1.0 million, or 4%, to $24.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $23.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to increases in telecom costs of $0.9 million and professional fees of $0.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $0.8 million.

Revenue

For the three months ended June 30, 2015 , AFC revenue increased $4.7 million, or 8%, to $64.7 million , compared with $60.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in revenue was the result of a 13% increase in loan transactions and an increase of 9% in "Other service revenue" generated by PWI, for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with the same period in 2014 , partially offset by a 5% decrease in revenue per loan transaction for the three months ended June 30, 2015 . In addition, managed receivables increased to $1,476.9 million at June 30, 2015 from $1,170.3 million at June 30, 2014 .

Revenue per loan transaction, which includes both loans paid off and loans curtailed, decreased $8, or 5%, primarily as a result of a decrease in fee income, an increase in the provision for credit losses, as well as fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate, partially offset by increases in average loan values, average portfolio duration and other revenue. Revenue per loan transaction excludes "Other service revenue."

Gross Profit

For the three months ended June 30, 2015 , gross profit for the AFC segment increased $2.5 million, or 6%, to $45.1 million , or 69.7% of revenue, compared with $42.6 million , or 71.0% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 , primarily as a result of an 8% increase in revenue, partially offset by a 13% increase in cost of services. The floorplan lending business gross profit margin percentage decreased from 77.7% to 76.7% as a result of lower revenue per loan transaction and increased compensation expense. The gross profit margin percentage in the warranty service contract business decreased from 15.0% to 12.1% as a result of an increased rate of service contract claims and costs associated with the expansion of the warranty service contract business into new markets.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses at AFC increased $0.4 million, or 6%, to $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $6.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase was primarily attributable to increases in expenses associated with PWI and compensation expense, partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation expense.

For a further discussion of revenues, gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses, see the segment results discussions below.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased $6.3 million, or 7%, to $102.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $96.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily the result of acquired assets as well as certain assets placed in service over the last twelve months.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $2.2 million, or 5%, to $42.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $45.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in the interest rates on term loan debt associated with the March 11, 2014 debt refinancing. The weighted average interest rate on term loan debt was approximately 3.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with a weighted average interest rate on term loan debt of approximately 3.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . As a result of the debt refinancing on March 11, 2014, the interest rates on term loan debt decreased and at June 30, 2015 , Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2 had rates of 2.81% and 3.50% respectively. The decrease in interest expense on the term loan debt was partially offset by an increase in interest expense at AFC, which resulted from an increase in the average U.S. portfolio financed for the six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared with the six months ended June 30, 2014 .

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

In March 2014, we amended and restated our Credit Agreement and recorded a $30.3 million pretax charge resulting from the write-off of unamortized debt discount associated with the term loan and unamortized debt issue costs associated with the term loan and the revolving credit facility.

We had an effective tax rate of 37.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with an effective tax rate of 35.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . During the six months ended June 30, 2014 , our effective tax rate benefited from a favorable state law change as well as changes to our income tax reserves for uncertain tax positions which resulted in a net benefit of $2.8 million. Excluding the effect of the discrete items, our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 would have been 37.6% and 38.2%, respectively.

Revenue

Revenue from ADESA increased $73.1 million, or 12%, to $673.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $599.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in revenue was primarily a result of an 11% increase in the number of vehicles sold, as well as a 1% increase in revenue per vehicle sold, which includes the impact of a decrease in revenues of $14.0 million due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate.

The increase in volume sold was primarily attributable to an increase in institutional volume, including vehicles sold on our online only platform, as well as a 4% increase in dealer consignment units sold for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2014 . Online sales volume for ADESA represented approximately 40% of the total vehicles sold in the first six months of 2015 , compared with approximately 39% in the first six months of 2014 . "Online sales" includes the following: (i) selling vehicles directly from a dealership or other interim storage location (upstream selling); (ii) online solutions that offer vehicles for sale while in transit to auction locations (midstream selling); (iii) simultaneously broadcasting video and audio of the physical auctions to online bidders (LiveBlock ^® ); and (iv) bulletin-board or real-time online auctions (DealerBlock ^® ). Both the upstream and midstream selling represent online only sales, which represent over half of ADESA's online sales volume. ADESA sold approximately 294,000 and 260,000 vehicles through its online only offerings in the first six months of 2015 and 2014 , respectively, of which approximately 183,000 and 160,000 represented vehicle sales to grounding dealers in the first six months of 2015 and 2014, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 , dealer consignment vehicles represented approximately 49% of used vehicles sold at ADESA physical auction locations, compared with approximately 52% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . Vehicles sold at physical auction locations increased 10% in

the first six months of 2015 , compared with the first six months of 2014 . The used vehicle conversion percentage at physical auction locations, calculated as the number of vehicles sold as a percentage of the number of vehicles entered for sale at our ADESA auctions, decreased to 60.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with 61.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 .

Total revenue per vehicle sold increased 1% to approximately $545 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with approximately $539 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . Physical auction revenue per vehicle sold increased $12, or 2%, to $684 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $672 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . Physical auction revenue per vehicle sold includes revenue from seller and buyer auction fees and ancillary and other related services, which includes non-auction services. The increase in physical auction revenue per vehicle sold was primarily attributable to an increase in ancillary and other related services revenue. Online only auction revenue per vehicle sold decreased $4 to $103 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $107 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The decrease in online only auction revenue per vehicle sold was attributable to a decline in fees per car sold, primarily due to an increase in the number of cars sold in closed private label sales, which includes sales to grounding dealers. The revenue per vehicle sold in a closed private label sale is lower than the revenue per vehicle sold in an open online only auction.

Gross Profit

For the six months ended June 30, 2015 , gross profit for ADESA increased $32.1 million, or 12%, to $294.1 million , compared with $262.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . Gross profit for ADESA was 43.7% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The increase in gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with the six months ended June 30, 2014 , was primarily the result of the increase in vehicles sold.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the ADESA segment increased $3.4 million, or 3%, to $136.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $132.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 , primarily due to increases in compensation expense of $3.9 million, acquisition-related professional fees of $1.6 million, marketing expenses of $1.6 million, selling, general and administrative expenses associated with acquisitions of $1.6 million, incentive-based compensation expense of $1.2 million, travel expenses of $0.9 million, other professional fees of $0.9 million, as well as the write-off of certain assets of $0.9 million and an increase in supply expenses of $0.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $7.4 million and fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate of $2.8 million.

Revenue

Revenue from IAA increased $37.8 million, or 8%, to $486.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $448.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in revenue was a result of an increase in vehicles sold of approximately 11% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , partially offset by a 3% decrease in revenue per vehicle sold, which includes the impact of a decrease in revenues of $4.6 million due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate. Revenue per vehicle sold was also negatively impacted by lower average auction prices and a decrease in scrap prices. Vehicles sold under purchase agreements were approximately 7% of total salvage vehicles sold for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with approximately 6% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . Online sales volumes for IAA for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 represented over half of the total vehicles sold by IAA.

Gross Profit

For the six months ended June 30, 2015 , gross profit at IAA increased to $184.9 million , or 38.0% of revenue, compared with $173.9 million , or 38.7% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in gross profit was mainly attributable to an 8% increase in revenue, partially offset by a 10% increase in cost of services related to an increase in branch costs related to volume growth. In addition, the reduction in gross profit on purchase contract vehicles accounted for a 0.5% decrease in IAA's gross profit margin percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, HBC Vehicle Services had revenue of approximately $4.3 million and cost of services of approximately $3.9 million. HBC accounted for a 0.3% decrease in IAA's gross profit margin percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses at IAA decreased $3.1 million, or 6%, to $47.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $50.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to a decrease in stock-based compensation and incentive-based compensation expense of $4.7 million, as well as non-income based taxes of $0.7 million, partially offset by an increase in telecom costs of $1.9 million and professional fees of $0.7 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015 , AFC revenue increased $10.4 million, or 9%, to $131.1 million , compared with $120.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in revenue was the result of an 11% increase in loan transactions and an increase of 14% in "Other service revenue" generated by PWI for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with the same period in 2014 , partially offset by a 3% decrease in revenue per loan transaction for the six months ended June 30, 2015 . In addition, managed receivables increased to $1,476.9 million at June 30, 2015 from $1,170.3 million at June 30, 2014 .

Revenue per loan transaction, which includes both loans paid off and loans curtailed, decreased $5, or 3%, primarily as a result of a decrease in fee income, fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate, as well as an increase in the provision for credit losses, partially offset by increases in average loan values, other revenue and average portfolio duration. Revenue per loan transaction excludes "Other service revenue."

Gross Profit

For the six months ended June 30, 2015 , gross profit for the AFC segment increased $6.2 million, or 7%, to $93.1 million , or 71.0% of revenue, compared with $86.9 million , or 72.0% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 , primarily as a result of a 9% increase in revenue, partially offset by a 12% increase in cost of services. The floorplan lending business gross profit margin percentage decreased from 78.5% to 77.6% as a result of lower revenue per loan transaction and increased compensation expense. The gross profit margin percentage in the warranty service contract business increased from 12.4% to 15.0% as a result of increased revenue growth and a decreased rate of service contract claims.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses at AFC decreased $1.3 million, or 8%, to $14.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $2.2 million, partially offset by an increase in compensation expense.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We believe that the significant indicators of liquidity for our business are cash on hand, cash flow from operations, working capital and amounts available under our credit facility. Our principal sources of liquidity consist of cash generated by operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

We regularly evaluate alternatives for our capital structure and liquidity given our expected cash flows, growth and operating capital requirements as well as capital market conditions.

Table of Contents

Working Capital

A substantial amount of our working capital is generated from the payments received for services provided. The majority of our working capital needs are short-term in nature, usually less than a week in duration. Due to the decentralized nature of the business, payments for most vehicles purchased are received at each auction and branch. Most of the financial institutions place a temporary hold on the availability of the funds deposited that generally can range up to two business days, resulting in cash in our accounts and on our balance sheet that is unavailable for use until it is made available by the various financial institutions. There are outstanding checks (book overdrafts) to sellers and vendors included in current liabilities. Because a portion of these outstanding checks for operations in the U.S. are drawn upon bank accounts at financial institutions other than the financial institutions that hold the cash, we cannot offset all the cash and the outstanding checks on our balance sheet. Changes in working capital vary from quarter-to-quarter as a result of the timing of collections and disbursements of funds to consignors from auctions held near period end.

Our available cash, which excludes cash in transit, was $136.7 million at June 30, 2015 . Of this amount, approximately $39.9 million was held by our foreign subsidiaries. If the portion of funds held by our foreign subsidiaries that are considered to be permanently reinvested were to be repatriated, tax expense would need to be accrued at the U.S. statutory rate, net of any applicable foreign tax credits. Such foreign tax credits would substantially offset any U.S. taxes that would be due in the event cash held by our foreign subsidiaries was repatriated.

AFC offers short-term inventory-secured financing, also known as floorplan financing, to independent used vehicle dealers. Financing is primarily provided for terms of 30 to 60 days. AFC principally generates its funding through the sale of its receivables. The receivables sold pursuant to the securitization agreements are accounted for as secured borrowings. For further discussion of AFC's securitization arrangements, see "Securitization Facilities."

Credit Facilities

On March 11, 2014, we established a three year senior secured term loan facility ("Term Loan B-1"), a seven year senior secured term loan facility ("Term Loan B-2") and a $250 million, five year senior secured revolving credit facility (the "revolving credit facility"), the terms of which are set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Facility is available for letters of credit, working capital and general corporate purposes. The Credit Agreement provides that with respect to the revolving credit facility, up to $75 million is available for letters of credit and up to $75 million is available for swing line loans. Subject to certain conditions, the Credit Agreement also permits additional revolving or term loan commitments of (i) up to $300 million or (ii) an unlimited amount if the Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is less than or equal to 3.5 to 1.0, in each case from one or more of the existing lenders or other lenders (with the consent of the administrative agent).

Term Loan B-2 was issued at a discount of $2.8 million. The discount is being amortized using the effective interest method to interest expense over the seven year term of the loan. Both Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2 are payable in quarterly installments equal to 0.25% of the original aggregate principal amounts of the term loans, respectively, as of the effective date, such payments commenced on June 30, 2014 and the balances are payable at each respective maturity date. The Credit Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments and reduction in an amount equal to the net proceeds of certain debt offerings, certain asset sales and certain insurance recovery events. In addition, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, 50% of the net cash proceeds from the sale-leaseback of certain technology and capital equipment were used to prepay $0.9 million and $1.5 million of Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2, respectively, in the second quarter of 2015 . In July 2015, similar net cash proceeds were used to prepay $1.3 million and $2.2 million of Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2, respectively. Each such prepayment is credited to prepay, on a pro rata basis, in order of maturity the unpaid amounts due on the next eight scheduled quarterly installments of Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2 and thereafter to the remaining scheduled quarterly installments of each term loan on a pro rata basis.

Term Loan B-1 bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.5%, Term Loan B-2 at Adjusted LIBOR plus 2.75% (with an Adjusted LIBOR floor of 0.75% per annum for Term Loan B-2) and revolving loan borrowings at LIBOR plus 2.25%. However, for specified types of borrowings, the Company may elect to make Term Loan B-1 borrowings at a Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 1.50%, Term Loan B-2 at a Base Rate plus 1.75% and revolving loan borrowings at a Base Rate plus 1.25%. The rates on Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2 were 2.81% and 3.50% at June 30, 2015 , respectively. In addition, if the Company reduces its Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, which is based on a net debt calculation, to levels specified in the Credit Agreement, the applicable interest rate on Term Loan B-2 and the revolving credit facility will step down by 25 basis points. The Company also pays a commitment fee of 40 basis points, payable quarterly, on the average daily unused amount of the revolving credit facility. The fee may step down to 35 basis points based on the Company's Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio as described above.

Table of Contents

On June 30, 2015 , $641.9 million was outstanding on Term Loan B-1, $1,106.0 million was outstanding on Term Loan B-2 and there were no borrowings on the revolving credit facility. In addition, there were related outstanding letters of credit in the aggregate amount of $28.6 million at June 30, 2015 , which reduce the amount available for borrowings under the Credit Facility. Our Canadian operations also have a C$8 million line of credit which was undrawn as of June 30, 2015 . However, there were related letters of credit outstanding totaling approximately C$1.1 million at June 30, 2015 , which reduce credit available under the Canadian line of credit.

The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive loan covenants, including, among others, a financial covenant requiring that a maximum consolidated senior secured leverage ratio be satisfied as of the last day of each fiscal quarter if revolving loans are outstanding, and covenants limiting our ability to incur indebtedness, grant liens, make acquisitions, consummate change of control transactions, dispose of assets, pay dividends, make investments and engage in certain transactions with affiliates. The senior secured leverage ratio is calculated as total senior secured debt divided by the last four quarters consolidated Adjusted EBITDA. Senior secured debt includes term loan borrowings, revolving loans and capital lease liabilities less available cash as defined in the Credit Agreement. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) adjusted to exclude among other things (a) gains and losses from asset sales; (b) unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses in respect of indebtedness; (c) certain non-recurring gains and losses; (d) stock option expense; (e) certain other non-cash amounts included in the determination of net income; (f) charges and revenue reductions resulting from purchase accounting; (g) minority interest; (h) expenses associated with the consolidation of salvage operations; (i) consulting expenses incurred for cost reduction, operating restructuring and business improvement efforts; (j) expenses realized upon the termination of employees and the termination or cancellation of leases, software licenses or other contracts in connection with the operational restructuring and business improvement efforts; (k) expenses incurred in connection with permitted acquisitions; (l) any impairment charges or write-offs of intangibles; and (m) any extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring charges, expenses or losses.

Certain covenants contained within the Credit Agreement are critical to an investor's understanding of our financial liquidity, as the failure to maintain compliance with these covenants could result in a default and allow our lenders to declare all amounts borrowed immediately due and payable. The maximum consolidated senior secured leverage ratio is required to be met when there are revolving loans outstanding under our Credit Agreement. For the quarter ended June 30, 2015 the ratio could not exceed 3.75 to 1.0 and it continues to decline throughout the remaining life of the Credit Facility until it reaches 3.0 to 1.0 at December 31, 2017. Our actual consolidated senior secured leverage ratio, including capital lease obligations of $39.0 million, was 2.62 to 1.0 at June 30, 2015 .

In addition, the Credit Agreement contains certain financial and operational restrictions that limit our ability to pay dividends and other distributions, make certain acquisitions or investments, incur indebtedness, grant liens and sell assets. The covenants in the Credit Agreement affect our operating flexibility by, among other things, restricting our ability to incur expenses and indebtedness that could be used to grow the business, as well as to fund general corporate purposes. We were in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement at June 30, 2015 .

We believe our sources of liquidity from our cash and cash equivalents on hand, working capital, cash provided by operating activities, and availability under our credit facility are sufficient to meet our short and long-term operating needs for the foreseeable future. In addition, we believe the previously mentioned sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund our capital requirements and debt service payments for the next twelve months.

Securitization Facilities

In June 2015, AFC and AFC Funding Corporation entered into the Sixth Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase

Agreement (the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”). The Receivables Purchase Agreement increased AFC Funding's U.S.

committed liquidity from $950 million to $1.15 billion and extended the facility's maturity date from June 30, 2016 to June 29,

Table of Contents

2018. In addition, the definition of eligible receivables was expanded and the overcollateralization requirement was reduced.

We also have an agreement for the securitization of AFCI's receivables. AFCI's committed facility is provided through a third party conduit (separate from the U.S. facility) and was C$125 million at June 30, 2015 . In June 2015, AFCI entered into the Third Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “Canadian Receivables Purchase Agreement”). The Canadian Receivables Purchase Agreement increased AFCI's committed liquidity from C$100 million to C$125 million and extended the facility's maturity date from June 30, 2016 to June 29, 2018. In addition, the definition of eligible receivables was expanded. The receivables sold pursuant to both the U.S. and Canadian securitization agreements are accounted for as secured borrowings.

AFC managed total finance receivables of $1,476.9 million and $1,371.1 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. AFC's allowance for losses was $8.5 million and $8.0 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.

As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , $1,466.6 million and $1,364.9 million , respectively, of finance receivables and a cash reserve of 1 percent of the obligations collateralized by finance receivables served as security for the $1,094.8 million and $865.2 million of obligations collateralized by finance receivables at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. After the occurrence of a termination event, as defined in the U.S. securitization agreement, the banks may, and could, cause the stock of AFC Funding Corporation to be transferred to the bank facility, though as a practical matter the bank facility would look to the liquidation of the receivables under the transaction documents as their primary remedy.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as presented herein, are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. They are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered substitutes for net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), plus interest expense net of interest income, income tax provision (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is EBITDA adjusted for the items of income and expense and expected incremental revenue and cost savings, as described above in the discussion of certain restrictive loan covenants under "Credit Facilities."

Management believes that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about one of the principal measures of performance used by our creditors. In addition, management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the results as reported under GAAP. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The following tables reconcile EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) for the periods presented:

Summary of Cash Flows



	Six Months Ended June 30,
(Dollars in millions)	2015			2014
Net cash provided by (used by):
Operating activities	$	200.5		$	231.4
Investing activities	(296.8		)	(114.5		)
Financing activities	155.4			(23.1		)
Effect of exchange rate on cash	(7.2		)	(0.1		)
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	51.9		$	93.7

Cash flow from operating activities was $200.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $231.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The decrease in operating cash flow was primarily attributable to changes in operating assets and liabilities as a result of the timing of collections and the disbursement of funds to consignors for auctions held near period-ends, as well as a net decrease in non-cash adjustments to net income, partially offset by increased profitability.

Net cash used by investing activities was $296.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with $114.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in net cash used by investing activities was primarily attributable to:


•	an increase in cash used for acquisitions of approximately $114.6 million;


•	an increase in the additional finance receivables held for investment of approximately $48.6 million; and


•	an increase in capital expenditures of approximately $16.9 million. For a discussion of the Company's capital expenditures, see “Capital Expenditures” below.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $155.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared with net cash used by financing activities of $23.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . The increase in net cash from financing activities was primarily attributable to:


•	a larger increase in obligations collateralized by finance receivables of approximately $207.0 million, in part related to the amendment of the securitization agreement, including the reduction of the overcollateralization requirement;

Table of Contents

partially offset by:


•	a $22.1 million increase in cash used for the repurchase and retirement of common stock; and


•	a $6.9 million increase in dividends paid to stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared with the same period in 2014.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 approximated $64.2 million and $47.3 million , respectively. Capital expenditures were funded primarily from internally generated funds. We continue to invest in our core information technology capabilities and capacity expansion. Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $134 million for fiscal year 2015, including $19 million related to the development of a Chicago-based ADESA whole car auction facility. Anticipated capital expenditures are primarily attributable to ongoing information system projects, upkeep and improvements at existing vehicle auction facilities, improvements in information technology systems and infrastructure and expansion of existing auction sites that are at capacity. In April 2015, the Company announced the development of a whole car auction facility named ADESA Chicago. The Company expects the cost of this greenfield development to be approximately $30 million to $35 million over the next two years, with an estimated $19 million of capital expenditures for fiscal year 2015. Future capital expenditures could vary substantially based on capital project timing, the opening of new auction facilities and the initiation of new information systems projects to support our business strategies.

Dividends

Subject to board of director approval, we expect to pay a quarterly dividend of $0.27 per share in 2015 using cash flow from operations, representing an annualized dividend of $1.08 per share. The following dividend information has been released for 2015:


•	On November 4, 2014, the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.27 per share that was paid on January 7, 2015, to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 29, 2014.


•	On February 17, 2015, the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.27 per share that was paid on April 2, 2015, to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 25, 2015.


•	On May 5, 2015, the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.27 per share that was paid on July 2, 2015, to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 24, 2015.


•	On August 3, 2015, the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.27 per share that is payable on October 1, 2015, to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 23, 2015.

Future dividend decisions will be based on and affected by a variety of factors, including our financial condition and results of operations, contractual restrictions, including restrictive covenants contained in our Credit Agreement and AFC's securitization facilities, capital requirements and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant. No assurance can be given as to whether any future dividends may be declared by our board of directors or the amount thereof.

Acquisitions

In March 2015, ADESA completed the acquisition of Pittsburgh Auto Auction. This acquisition bolsters ADESA’s presence in the eastern region and complements its current buyer base.

Contractual Obligations

The Company's contractual cash obligations for long-term debt, interest payments related to long-term debt, capital lease obligations and operating leases were summarized in the table of contractual obligations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 . Since December 31, 2014 , there have been no material changes to the contractual obligations of the Company; however, we noted the following:


•	In the second quarter of 2015, 50% of the net cash proceeds from the sale-leaseback of certain technology and capital equipment were used to prepay $0.9 million and $1.5 million of Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2, respectively.


•	In July 2015, 50% of the net cash proceeds from the sale-leaseback of certain technology and capital equipment were used to prepay $1.3 million and $2.2 million of Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2, respectively.


•	Operating lease obligations change in the ordinary course of business. We lease most of our auction facilities, as well as other property and equipment under operating leases. Future operating lease obligations will continue to change if renewal options are exercised and/or if we enter into additional operating lease agreements.

See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional information about the items described above. Our contractual cash obligations as of December 31, 2014 , are discussed in the "Contractual Obligations" section of "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 , as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our critical accounting estimates are discussed in the "Critical Accounting Estimates" section of "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 , as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. A summary of significant accounting policies is discussed in Note 2 and elsewhere in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 , which includes audited financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2015 , we had no off-balance sheet arrangements pursuant to Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

New Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605, Revenue Recognition . The new guidance provides clarification on the recognition of revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized. On July 9, 2015, the FASB agreed to delay the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. In accordance with the agreed upon delay, the new guidance is effective for the first annual reporting period and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and will require either retrospective application to each prior reporting period presented or retrospective application with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Currency

Our foreign currency exposure is limited and arises from transactions denominated in foreign currencies, particularly intercompany loans, as well as from translation of the results of operations from our Canadian and, to a much lesser extent, United Kingdom and Mexican subsidiaries. However, fluctuations between U.S. and non-U.S. currency values may adversely affect our results of operations and financial position. We have not entered into any foreign exchange contracts to hedge changes in the Canadian, United Kingdom or Mexican exchange rates. Canadian currency translation negatively affected net income by approximately $2.2 million and $3.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively. A 1% change in the average Canadian exchange rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 would have impacted net income by approximately $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Currency exposure of our United Kingdom and Mexican operations is not material to the results of operations.

Interest Rates

We are exposed to interest rate risk on our variable rate borrowings. Accordingly, interest rate fluctuations affect the amount of interest expense we are obligated to pay. We currently use interest rate cap agreements to manage our exposure to interest rate changes. We have not designated any of the interest rate caps as hedges for accounting purposes. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the interest rate caps are recognized as "Interest expense" in the consolidated statement of income.

In August 2013, we purchased four interest rate caps for approximately $2.2 million with an aggregate notional amount of $1.2 billion to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our variable rate Credit Facility when three-month LIBOR exceeds 1.0%. The interest rate cap agreements cap three-month LIBOR at 1.0%, have an effective date of August 16, 2013 and mature on August 16, 2015.

In April 2015, we purchased two interest rate caps for approximately $0.7 million with an aggregate notional amount of $400 million to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our variable rate Credit Facility when three-month LIBOR exceeds 1.5%. The interest rate cap agreements cap three-month LIBOR at 1.5%, have an effective date of April 16, 2015 and mature on March 31, 2017.

Taking our interest rate caps into account, a sensitivity analysis of the impact on our variable rate corporate debt instruments to a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in short-term rates (LIBOR) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 would have resulted in an increase in interest expense of approximately $2.6 million and $5.4 million, respectively.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 , that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Certain legal proceedings in which the Company is involved are discussed in Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and Part I, Item 3 of the same Annual Report. Unless otherwise indicated, all proceedings discussed in the Annual Report remain outstanding.

IAA—Lower Duwamish Waterway

Since June 2004, IAA has operated a branch on property it leases in Tukwila, Washington just south of Seattle. The property is located adjacent to a Superfund site known as the Lower Duwamish Waterway Superfund Site ("LDW Site"). The LDW Site had been designated a Superfund site in 2001, three years prior to IAA’s tenancy. On March 25, 2008, the United States Environmental Protection Agency, or the "EPA," issued IAA a General Notice of Potential Liability, or "General Notice," pursuant to Section 107(a), and a Request for Information pursuant to Section 104(e) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, or "CERCLA," related to the LDW Site. On November 7, 2012, the EPA issued IAA a Second General Notice of Potential Liability, or "Second General Notice," for the LDW Site. The EPA's website indicates that the EPA has issued general notice letters to approximately 116 entities, and has issued Section 104(e) Requests to more than 300 entities related to the LDW Site. In the General Notice and Second General Notice, the EPA informed IAA that the EPA believes IAA may be a Potentially Responsible Party, or ”PRP,” but the EPA did not specify the factual basis for this assertion. At this time, the EPA still has not specified the factual basis for this assertion and has not demanded that IAA pay any funds or take any action apart from responding to the Section 104(e) Information Request. Four PRPs, The Boeing Company, the City of Seattle, the Port of Seattle and King County, have funded a remedial investigation and feasibility study related to the cleanup of the LDW Site. In December 2014, the EPA issued a Record of Decision (ROD), detailing the final cleanup plan for the LDW Site. The ROD estimates the cost of cleanup to be $342 million, with the plan involving dredging of 105 acres, capping 24 acres, and enhanced natural recovery of 48 acres. The estimated length of the cleanup is 17 years, including 7 years of active remediation, and 10 years of monitored natural recovery. IAA is aware that certain authorities may bring natural resource damage claims against PRPs. At this time, however, the Company does not have adequate information to determine IAA's responsibility, if any, for contamination at this site, or to estimate IAA's loss as a result of this potential liability.

In addition, the Washington State Department of Ecology (“Ecology”) is working with the EPA in relation to the LDW Site, primarily to investigate and address sources of potential contamination contributing to the LDW Site. In 2007, IAA installed a stormwater capture and filtration system designed to treat sources of potential contamination before discharge to the LDW site. The immediate-past property owner, the former property owner and IAA have had discussions with Ecology concerning possible source control measures including, an investigation of the water and soils entering the stormwater system, an analysis of the source of contamination identified within the system, if any, and possible repairs and upgrades to the stormwater system if required. In October 2014, Ecology, in furtherance of its source control obligations, conducted stormwater sampling at the property, collecting water samples from within the stormwater system. Although no solids were detected in the stormwater system during the sampling, Ecology tested the water that was collected for various constituents. Ecology is expected to issue a final report regarding this sampling later this year. At this time, IAA is not aware of any additional Ecology source control activities planned for the site. Additional source control measures, if any, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on future recurring operating costs.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, readers should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 , which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
