Business and Nature of Operations

As of June 30, 2017 , we have a North American network of 77 ADESA whole car auction sites and 174 IAA salvage vehicle auction sites; in addition, we offer online auctions for both whole car and salvage vehicles. ADESA also includes ADESA Remarketing Limited, an online whole car vehicle remarketing business in the United Kingdom. IAA also includes HBC Vehicle Services Limited, which operates from 11 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 128 locations throughout the United States and Canada as of June 30, 2017 . Floorplan financing supports independent used vehicle dealers in North America who purchase vehicles at ADESA, IAA, TradeRev (partially owned by ADESA), 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, 2016, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2017. The 2016 year-end consolidated balance sheet data included in this Form 10-Q was derived from the audited financial statements referenced above and does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements.

Use of Estimates

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.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation . We recognize all stock-based compensation as expense in the financial statements and that cost is measured as the fair value of the award at the grant date for equity-classified awards.

We adopted ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting , in the first quarter of 2017. As a result of the adoption, the Company elected to recognize the impact of forfeitures as they occur. In addition, the Company now recognizes excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies related to employee stock-based compensation within income tax expense. As a result, on a prospective basis, we recognized $0.9 million and $5.0 million of excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation as a discrete item in our income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Historically, these amounts were recorded as additional paid-in capital. We have also retrospectively applied ASU 2016-09 to our consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016, which resulted in a reclassification of excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation of $5.8 million from cash flows provided by financing activities to cash flows provided by operating activities.

New Accounting Standards

In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting , which clarifies when changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award must be accounted for as modifications. The new guidance is expected to reduce diversity in practice and result in fewer changes to the terms of an award being accounted for as modifications. Changes that do not impact the fair value, vesting conditions or classification of an award will not require modification accounting. The new guidance is

effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-09 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the test for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 (implied fair value measurement). Instead goodwill impairment would be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which addresses diversity in practice that exists in the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-18 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which provides guidance on the statement of cash flows presentation of certain transactions where diversity in practice exists. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-15 will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The update changes the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted beginning in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements based on the short-term nature of AFC's loans.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which replaces existing lease guidance. The ASU is intended to provide enhanced transparency and comparability by requiring lessees to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet, with an exception for leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease. The new guidance will continue to classify leases as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of income. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted and the ASU is required to be applied with a modified retrospective approach to each prior reporting period presented with various optional practical expedients. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the consolidated financial statements and anticipates that the new guidance will significantly impact its consolidated financial statements, as the Company has a significant number of leases. Our current minimum commitments under non-cancelable operating leases are disclosed 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, 2016 and in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the same report. In addition, the recognition of these leases on our consolidated balance sheet would increase our net debt calculation which is included in the determination of our Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio. In this event, our Credit Agreement specifies that the covenant shall continue to be calculated as if the accounting standard had not occurred and that we could enter into negotiations to amend such provisions in the Credit Agreement so as to equitably reflect such changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating our financial condition would be the same after the change as if such change had not been made.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which superseded the revenue recognition requirements in 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. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date , which defers 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 expects to use retrospective application with the cumulative effect as its transition method. The Company is still in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the consolidated financial statements and is assessing its contracts with customers. Currently, we do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. We anticipate we will expand our consolidated financial statement disclosures in order to comply with the ASU.

Note 2—Acquisitions

In April 2017, KAR purchased all of the stock of CarCo Technologies, Inc. (“DRIVIN”). DRIVIN aggregates automotive retail, pricing, registration and other market and economic data from a variety of public and proprietary sources. The insights generated from that data are deployed through predictive pricing, inventory management and vehicle matching tools that help customers buy, sell and source vehicles.

In May 2017, the Company acquired Dependable Auto Shippers ("DAS"). DAS provides vehicle transportation services for corporate and personal vehicle transportation needs.

The purchased assets included accounts receivable, software, and inventory. 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 2017, net of cash acquired, was approximately $47.0 million . The purchase price for the acquired businesses was allocated to acquired assets and liabilities based upon fair values, including $6.0 million to intangible assets, representing the fair value of acquired software which is being amortized over its expected useful life. The purchase accounting associated with these acquisitions is preliminary, subject to determination of working capital adjustments, tax attributes and a final valuation of intangibles related to the acquisition of DRIVIN and certain opening balance sheet fair value adjustments for DAS. The Company does not expect adjustments to the purchase accounting will be material. The acquisitions resulted in aggregate goodwill of $35.6 million . The goodwill is recorded in the ADESA Auctions reportable segment. The financial impact of these acquisitions, including pro forma financial results, was immaterial to the Company’s consolidated results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Note 3—Stock and Stock-Based Compensation Plans

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

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,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
PRSUs	$	2.5	$	2.6	$	5.6	$	5.7
RSUs	2.3		1.5		4.5		3.0
Service options	0.4		0.5		0.9		1.1
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	5.2	$	4.6	$	11.0	$	9.8

PRSUs and RSUs

In the first six months of 2017, 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 operating adjusted earnings per share attains certain specified goals. In addition, approximately 0.3 million RSUs were granted to certain executive officers and management of the Company. The RSUs are contingent upon continued employment and generally vest in three equal annual installments. The weighted average grant date fair value of the PRSUs and the RSUs was $44.43 per share and $44.03 per share, respectively, which was determined using the closing price of the Company's common stock on the dates of grant.

Share Repurchase Program

In October 2016, the board of directors authorized a repurchase of up to $500 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock, par value $0.01 per share, through October 26, 2019 . 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. No shares of common stock were repurchased during the first six months of 2017. In 2016, we repurchased and retired a total of 1,931,200 shares of common stock in the open market at a weighted average price of $41.61 per share under the October 2016 authorization.

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,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Net income	$	57.2	$	61.8	$	126.4	$	122.5
Weighted average common shares outstanding	137.2		137.6		137.0		137.4
Effect of dilutive stock options and restricted stock awards	1.2		1.7		1.4		1.7
Weighted average common shares outstanding and potential common shares	138.4		139.3		138.4		139.1
Net income per share
Basic	$	0.42	$	0.45	$	0.92	$	0.89
Diluted	$	0.41	$	0.44	$	0.91	$	0.88

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 net 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 were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the three or six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . In addition, approximately 0.7 million and approximately 0.5 million PRSUs were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and approximately 0.7 million and approximately 0.5 million PRSUs were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Total options outstanding at June 30, 2017 and 2016 were 2.2 million and 3.1 million , respectively.

Note 5—Equity Method Investment

ADESA owns a 50% interest in Nth Gen Software Inc. ("TradeRev") and its online vehicle remarketing system which were acquired for approximately $30 million in cash. TradeRev is an online automotive remarketing system where dealers can launch and participate in real-time vehicle auctions at any time from their mobile devices or desktop. In addition, ADESA also entered into a joint marketing agreement with TradeRev to assist in expanding its footprint in the dealer-to-dealer online space in the U.S. and Canadian markets.

In the first quarter of 2017, TradeRev signed a promissory note with ADESA. The promissory note created a line of credit for term loans up to $15 million , with a minimum of $5 million to be drawn at a time. At June 30, 2017, there was $5 million outstanding on the promissory note and the initial maturity date is January 5, 2020. This amount is recorded in “Other assets” on the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company will continue to account for TradeRev as an equity method investment because we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies but do not have a controlling financial interest. At June 30, 2017, the carrying amount of the investment was $20.0 million . The Company’s share in the net losses of TradeRev for each of the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $1.0 million , and the Company’s share in the net losses of TradeRev for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $2.7 million and $1.6 million , respectively. This amount was recorded to “Other income, net” in the consolidated statements of income.

Note 6—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. The agreement expires on January 31, 2020. AFC Funding Corporation had committed liquidity of $1.50 billion for U.S. finance receivables at June 30, 2017 .

We also have an agreement for the securitization of Automotive Finance Canada Inc.'s ("AFCI") receivables which expires on January 31, 2020. 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, 2017 . The receivables sold pursuant to both the U.S. and Canadian securitization agreements are accounted for as secured borrowings.

The following tables present quantitative information about delinquencies, credit losses less recoveries ("net credit losses") and components of securitized financial assets and other related assets managed. For purposes of this illustration, delinquent receivables are defined as receivables 31 days or more past due.



	June 30, 2017				Net Credit Losses Three Months Ended June 30, 2017		Net Credit Losses Six Months Ended June 30, 2017
	Principal Amount of:

Obligations collateralized by finance receivables	$	1,224.9		$	1,280.3

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, 2017 , we were in compliance with the covenants in the securitization agreements.

Note 7—Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt consisted of the following (in millions) :



	Interest Rate *		Maturity	June 30, 2017			December 31, 2016

* The interest rates presented in the table above represent the rates in place at June 30, 2017 .

On May 31, 2017, the Company used proceeds from the issuance of $950 million senior notes and proceeds from the issuance of $1,767 million in the aggregate of Term Loan B-4 and Term Loan B-5 to repay Term Loan B-2 and Term Loan B-3 in full and to repay the outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility.

Credit Facility

On May 31, 2017, we entered into an Incremental Commitment Agreement and Second Amendment (the "Second Amendment") to the Credit Agreement. The Second Amendment provided for, among other things, (i) the refinancing and repricing of the existing tranche B-2 term loans ("Term Loan B-2") remaining after the repayment with new tranche B-4 term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $717 million ("Term Loan B-4"), (ii) the refinancing and repricing of existing tranche B-3 term loans ("Term Loan B-3") remaining after the repayment with new tranche B-5 term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $1.05 billion ("Term Loan B-5") and (iii) a $350 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the "revolving credit facility"). A portion of the proceeds received from the issuance of the senior notes was used to repay a portion of Term Loan B-2 and Term Loan B-3, as well as the outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility. No early termination penalties were incurred by the Company; however, we incurred a non-cash loss on the extinguishment of debt of $27.5 million in the second quarter of 2017. The loss was a result of the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs and debt discounts associated with Term Loan B-2 and Term Loan B-3. We capitalized approximately $7.0 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the Second Amendment.

The Credit Facility is available for letters of credit, working capital, permitted acquisitions 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 $90 million is available for swing line loans.

Both Term Loan B-4 and Term Loan B-5 are payable in quarterly installments equal to 0.25% of their respective original aggregate principal amounts. Such payments will commence on September 30, 2017, with the balances 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 July 2017, 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 $1.0 million and $1.5 million of Term Loan B-4 and Term Loan B-5, respectively. Each such prepayment is credited to prepay, on a pro rata basis, in order of maturity the unpaid amounts due on the first eight scheduled quarterly installments of Term Loan B-4 and Term Loan B-5 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, 2017 .

As set forth in the Credit Agreement, Term Loan B-4 bears interest at Adjusted LIBOR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 2.25% , Term Loan B-5 at Adjusted LIBOR plus 2.50% and revolving loan borrowings at Adjusted LIBOR plus 2.0% . However, for specified types of borrowings, the Company may elect to make Term Loan B-4 borrowings at a Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 1.25% , Term Loan B-5 at a Base Rate plus 1.50% and revolving loan borrowings at a Base Rate plus 1.0% . The rates on Term Loan B-4 and Term Loan B-5 were 3.56% and 3.81% at June 30, 2017 , respectively. In addition, if the Company's Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), which is based on a net debt calculation, increases to levels specified in the Credit Agreement, the applicable interest rate on the revolving credit facility will step up by 25 basis points. The Company also pays a commitment fee of 30 to 35 basis points, payable quarterly, on the average daily unused amount of the revolving credit facility based on the Company's Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio as described above.

On June 30, 2017 , there were no borrowings on the revolving credit facility and $80.5 million was drawn at December 31, 2016 . In addition, we had related outstanding letters of credit in the aggregate amount of $35.9 million and $29.7 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, which reduce the amount available for borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

Senior Notes

On May 31, 2017, we issued $950 million of 5.125% senior notes due June 1, 2025. The Company will pay interest on the senior notes semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing December 1, 2017. We may redeem the senior notes, in whole or in part, at any time prior to June 1, 2020 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium and thereafter at a premium that declines ratably to par in 2023. We capitalized approximately $14.7 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the senior notes. The senior notes are guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantors.

Fair Value of Debt

As of June 30, 2017 , the estimated fair value of our long-term debt amounted to $2,745.6 million . The estimates of fair value were based on broker-dealer quotes for our debt as of June 30, 2017 . 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 8—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 March 2017, we entered into two interest rate caps 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 2.0% . The interest rate cap agreements each had an effective date of March 31, 2017 and each mature on March 31, 2019. We paid an aggregate amount of approximately $0.7 million for the caps in April 2017.

•

In August 2015, we purchased three interest rate caps for an aggregate amount of approximately $1.5 million with an aggregate notional amount of $800 million to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our variable rate Credit Facility if/when three-month LIBOR (i) exceeded 2.0% between August 19, 2015 (the effective date) and September 29, 2016 and (ii) exceeds 1.75% between September 30, 2016 and August 19, 2017 (the maturity date).


•	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 exceeded 1.5% . The interest rate cap agreements each had an effective date of April 16, 2015 and each matured 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. The following table presents the fair value of our interest rate derivatives included in the consolidated balance sheets for the periods presented ( in millions ):

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 following table presents the effect of the interest rate derivatives on our consolidated statements of income for the periods presented ( in millions ):

Note 9—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.

Note 11—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.

The holding company is maintained separately from the three reportable segments and includes expenses associated with the corporate offices, 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.

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 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 77 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. ADESA also includes ADESA Remarketing Limited, an online whole car vehicle remarketing business in the United Kingdom.

•

The IAA segment serves a domestic and international customer base through live and online auctions and through 174 salvage vehicle auction sites in the United States and Canada at June 30, 2017 . IAA also includes HBC, which operates from 11 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.

Table of Contents


•	The AFC segment provides short-term, inventory-secured financing, known as floorplan financing, primarily to independent used vehicle dealers. At June 30, 2017 , AFC conducted business at 128 locations in the United States and Canada. The Company also sells vehicle service contracts through Preferred Warranties, Inc. ("PWI").

The holding company is maintained separately from the three reportable segments and includes expenses associated with the corporate offices, such as salaries, benefits and travel costs for our 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.

Industry Trends

Whole Car

Used vehicles sold in North America through whole car auctions, including online only sales, were approximately 9.2 million , 9.9 million and 10.6 million in 2014 , 2015 and 2016 , respectively. We expect that used vehicle auction volumes in North America, including online only volumes, will be over 10.6 million units in 2017, 2018 and 2019. Our estimates are based on information from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, IHS Automotive, Kontos Total Market Estimates, NAAA's 2016 Annual Review and management estimates. A primary driver of the anticipated improvement is more off-lease and repossessed vehicles entering the market over the next three years.

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 17% in 2016 , 16% in 2015 and 14% in 2014. 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. We believe that salvage auction industry volumes will grow 5% to 7% annually over the next three years.

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, revenue and gross profit are positively impacted. If used vehicle and commodity prices decrease, as the industry has recently experienced, proceeds, revenue and gross profit at salvage auctions may be negatively impacted, which could adversely affect the level of profitability. For example, the average price per ton of crushed auto bodies in North America decreased from $312 in December 2013 to $198 in December 2014 to $115 in December 2015, before rebounding to $136 in December 2016. This reduction in the price of crushed auto bodies has had an adverse impact on the value of salvage vehicles being sold in the salvage auction industry and resulted in reduced revenue per vehicle sold and gross profit. In the first six months of 2017, the price per ton of crushed auto bodies in North America has ranged from $156 to $188 and finished June 2017 at $184, as compared to $175 at June 30, 2016.

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 AFC's North American dealer base grew from over 9,700 dealers in 2009 to approximately 15,700 dealers in 2016 and loan transactions, which includes both loans paid off and loans curtailed, grew from approximately 800,000 in 2009 to approximately 1,718,000 in 2016 . As a result of this increased activity, AFC is experiencing increased competition.

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.

Table of Contents

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 purchased, 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.

Overview

For the three months ended June 30, 2017 , we had revenue of $858.0 million compared with revenue of $788.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 , an increase of 9% . Businesses acquired in the last 12 months accounted for an increase in revenue of $18.2 million. 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 $5.5 million , or 9% , to $64.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $59.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 . The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily the result of certain assets placed in service over the last twelve months and depreciation and amortization for the assets of businesses acquired in 2016 and 2017.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $4.3 million , or 12% , to $40.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $35.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 . The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in interest expense at AFC of $2.3 million, which resulted from an increase in interest rates for the three months ended June 30, 2017 as compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016 . In addition, interest expense increased as a result of an increase of approximately $95 million in the average outstanding balance of corporate debt for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016 , as well as an increase in the weighted average interest rate for the same period of approximately 0.15%.

Table of Contents

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

In May 2017, we amended our Credit Agreement and recorded a $27.5 million pretax charge resulting from the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs and debt discounts associated with Term Loan B-2 and Term Loan B-3.

Income Taxes

We had an effective tax rate of 37.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with an effective tax rate of 37.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 . Our effective tax rate was lower in the second quarter of 2017 primarily as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 in the first quarter of 2017. W e recognized $0.9 million of excess tax benefits from employee stock-based compensation as a discrete item in our income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 . These amounts were previously recorded to additional paid-in capital.

Impact of Foreign Currency

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar has impacted the reporting of our Canadian operations in U.S. dollars. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 , fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate decreased revenue by $4.1 million, operating profit by $1.6 million, net income by $0.9 million and net income per diluted share by less than $0.01.

Revenue

Revenue from ADESA increased $38.4 million , or 9% , to $489.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $450.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 . The increase in revenue was primarily a result of an 11% increase in the number of vehicles sold (7% increase excluding acquisitions), partially offset by a 2% decrease in revenue per vehicle sold. Businesses acquired in the last 12 months accounted for an increase in revenue of $18.2 million. Revenue decreased $3.0 million due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate.

The increase in volume sold was primarily attributable to a 17% increase in institutional volume (14% increase excluding acquisitions), including vehicles sold on our online only platform, partially offset by a 1% decrease in dealer consignment units sold (5% decrease excluding acquisitions) for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016 . Online sales volume for ADESA represented approximately 45% of the total vehicles sold in the second quarter of 2017 , compared with approximately 41% in the second quarter of 2016 . "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 ^® ). Upstream and midstream selling represent online only sales, which accounted for approximately 67% of ADESA's online sales volume.

Table of Contents

ADESA sold approximately 245,000 and 198,000 vehicles through its online only offerings in the second quarter of 2017 and 2016 , respectively, of which approximately 128,000 and 105,000 represented vehicle sales to grounding dealers in the second quarter of 2017 and 2016 , respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 , dealer consignment vehicles represented approximately 46% of used vehicles sold at ADESA physical auction locations, compared with approximately 49% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 . Vehicles sold at physical auction locations increased 6% (1% increase excluding acquisitions) in the second quarter of 2017 , compared with the second quarter of 2016 . The used vehicle conversion percentage at North American 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, increased to 61.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with 59.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 .

Physical auction revenue per vehicle sold increased $6, or 1%, to $748 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $742 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 . 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 and excludes the sale of purchased vehicles. The increase in physical auction revenue per vehicle sold was primarily attributable to an increase in auction fees related to higher average transaction prices and an increase in lower margin ancillary and other related services revenue, including revenue from certain businesses acquired, partially offset by a decrease in physical auction revenue per vehicle sold of $5 due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate.

Online only auction revenue per vehicle sold decreased $2 to $121 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $123 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 . The decrease in online only auction revenue per vehicle sold was attributable to a change in the mix of cars supplied in closed sales to non-grounding dealers as well as a change in the mix of cars supplied in open sales, partially offset by an increase in purchased vehicles associated with the ADESA Assurance Program and a decrease in online only auction revenue per vehicle sold of $1 due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate.

Revenue

For the three months ended June 30, 2017 , AFC revenue decreased $2.8 million , or 4% , to $70.1 million , compared with $72.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 . The decrease in revenue was the result of an increase in the provision for credit losses to 2.6% of the average managed receivables for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , partially offset by a 5% increase in "Other service revenue" generated by PWI. In addition, managed receivables decreased to $1,736.5 million at June 30, 2017 from $1,738.6 million at June 30, 2016 .

Revenue per loan transaction, which includes both loans paid off and loans curtailed, decreased $6, or 4%. The provision for credit losses, which is a reduction of revenue, resulted in a reduction of revenue per unit of $14 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 . The remaining $8 increase in revenue per loan transaction was the result of increases in fee revenue and interest yield as a result of prime rate increases. Revenue per loan transaction excludes "Other service revenue."

The provision for credit losses has increased to 2.6% from 1.3% of the average managed receivables for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016 . The provision for credit losses is expected to be approximately 1.75% to 2.25%, annually, of the average managed receivables balance. For 2017, the provision for credit losses is above the stated range for the first half of the year, with improvement expected in the second half of the year.

Gross Profit

For the three months ended June 30, 2017 , gross profit for the AFC segment decreased $3.2 million , or 6% , to $48.6 million , or 69.3% of revenue, compared with $51.8 million , or 71.1% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2016 , primarily as a result of a 4% decrease in revenue, related to the increased provision for credit losses, and a 2% increase in cost of services. The increase in cost of services was the result of an increase in compensation expense of $0.4 million and an increase in lot checks of $0.3 million, partially offset by a decrease in incentive-based compensation of $0.2 million and other expenses aggregating $0.1 million. The floorplan lending business gross profit margin percentage decreased from 77.7% to 75.7%. The floorplan lending business excludes PWI.

Selling, General and Administrative

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased $13.6 million , or 12% , to $129.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $115.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily the result of certain assets placed in service over the last twelve months and depreciation and amortization for the assets of businesses acquired in 2016 and 2017.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $15.9 million , or 25% , to $80.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $64.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $275 million in the average outstanding balance of corporate debt for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016 , as well as an increase in the weighted average interest rate for the same period of approximately 0.44%. In addition, there was an increase in interest expense at AFC of $4.8 million, which resulted from an increase in interest rates for the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016 .

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

In March 2016, we amended our Credit Agreement and recorded a $4.0 million pretax charge resulting from the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs associated with Term Loan B-1 and unamortized debt issue costs associated with a previous revolving credit facility.

Income Taxes

We had an effective tax rate of 35.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with an effective tax rate of 37.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . Our effective tax rate was lower for the first six months of 2017 as compared with the first six months of 2016, primarily as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 in the first quarter of 2017. W e recognized $5.0 million of excess tax benefits from employee stock-based compensation as a discrete item in our income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . These amounts were previously recorded to additional paid-in capital.

Impact of Foreign Currency

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar has impacted the reporting of our Canadian operations in U.S. dollars. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 , fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate decreased revenue by $1.1 million, operating profit by $0.4 million, net income by $0.2 million and net income per diluted share by less than $0.01.

Revenue

Revenue from ADESA increased $121.6 million , or 14% , to $987.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $865.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . The increase in revenue was primarily a result of a 13% increase in the number of vehicles sold (5% increase excluding acquisitions), as well as a 1% increase in revenue per vehicle sold. Businesses acquired in the last 12 months accounted for an increase in revenue of $66.6 million. Revenue decreased $0.8 million due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate.

The increase in volume sold was primarily attributable to a 18% increase in institutional volume (12% increase excluding acquisitions), including vehicles sold on our online only platform, as well as a 5% increase in dealer consignment units sold (6% decrease excluding acquisitions) for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016 . Online sales volume for ADESA represented approximately 44% of the total vehicles sold in the first six months of 2017 , compared with approximately 41% in the first six months of 2016 . Upstream and midstream selling represent online only sales, which accounted for approximately 64% of ADESA's online sales volume. ADESA sold approximately 460,000 and 386,000 vehicles through its online only offerings in the first six months of 2017 and 2016 , respectively, of which approximately 235,000 and 197,000 represented vehicle sales to grounding dealers in the first six months of 2017 and 2016 , respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 , dealer consignment vehicles represented approximately 45% of used vehicles sold at ADESA physical auction locations, compared with approximately 48% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . Vehicles sold at physical auction locations increased 11% (no increase excluding acquisitions) in the first six months of 2017 , compared with the first six months of 2016 . The used vehicle conversion percentage at North American 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, increased to 61.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with 60.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 .

Physical auction revenue per vehicle sold increased $11, or 1%, to $751 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $740 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . 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 and excludes the sale of purchased vehicles. The increase in physical auction revenue per vehicle sold was primarily attributable to an increase in auction fees related to higher average transaction prices and an increase in lower margin ancillary and other related services revenue, including revenue from certain businesses acquired, partially offset by a decrease in physical auction revenue per vehicle sold of $1 due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate.

Online only auction revenue per vehicle sold increased $2 to $122 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $120 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . The increase in online only auction revenue per vehicle sold was attributable to an increase in purchased vehicles associated with the ADESA Assurance Program, partially offset by a change in the mix of cars supplied in closed sales to non-grounding dealers as well as a change in the mix of cars supplied in open sales. Excluding

The decrease in revenue was the result of an increase in the provision for credit losses to 2.6% of the average managed receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , partially offset by a 6% increase in "Other service revenue" generated by PWI. In addition, managed receivables decreased to $1,736.5 million at June 30, 2017 from $1,738.6 million at June 30, 2016 .

Revenue per loan transaction, which includes both loans paid off and loans curtailed, decreased $7, or 5%. The provision for credit losses, which is a reduction of revenue, resulted in a reduction of revenue per unit of $13 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 .

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.

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.

Approximately $113.9 million of available cash was held by our foreign subsidiaries at June 30, 2017. 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 90 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 June 30, 2017 , $717.0 million was outstanding on Term Loan B-4, $1,050.0 million was outstanding on Term Loan B-5 and there were no borrowings on the revolving credit facility. In addition, we had related outstanding letters of credit in the aggregate amount of $35.9 million at June 30, 2017 , which reduce the amount available for borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Our Canadian operations also have a C$8 million line of credit which was undrawn at June 30, 2017 . However, there were related letters of credit outstanding totaling approximately C$1.0 million at June 30, 2017 , which reduce credit available under the Canadian line of credit.

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 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-based compensation 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, 2017 the ratio could not exceed 3.75 to 1.0 and it steps down to 3.5 to 1.0 at September 30, 2017. Our actual consolidated senior secured leverage ratio, including capital lease obligations of $37.8 million, w as 2.11 to 1.0 at June 30, 2017 , excluding pro forma Adjusted EBITDA for businesses acquired in the last twelve months.

In addition, the Credit Agreement and the indenture governing our senior notes contain 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 and the indenture governing our senior notes 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 and the indenture governing our senior notes at June 30, 2017 .

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, debt service payments, announced acquisitions and dividends for the next twelve months.

Senior Notes

Securitization Facilities

AFC sells the majority of its U.S. dollar denominated finance receivables on a revolving basis and without recourse to AFC Funding Corporation. 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. The agreement expires on January 31, 2020. AFC Funding Corporation had committed liquidity of $1.50 billion for U.S. finance receivables at June 30, 2017 .

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, 2017 . The receivables sold pursuant to both the U.S. and Canadian securitization agreements are accounted for as secured borrowings.

Table of Contents

AFC manage d total finance receivables of $1,736.5 million and $1,792.2 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. AFC's allowance for losses was $12.5 million and $12.0 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively.

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , $1,715.3 million and $1,774.8 million , respectively, of finance receivables and a cash reserve of 1 percent of the obligations collateralized by finance receivables served as security for the $1,224.9 million and $1,280.3 million of obligations collateralized by finance receivables at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. There were unamortized securitization issuance costs of approximately $16.5 million and $19.7 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , 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 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.

Summary of Cash Flows



	Six Months Ended June 30,
(Dollars in millions)	2017			2016
Net cash provided by (used by):
Operating activities	$	373.9		$	164.7
Investing activities	(91.1		)	(531.1		)
Financing activities	37.8			520.6
Effect of exchange rate on cash	8.0			5.5
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	328.6		$	159.7

Cash flow from operating activities was $373.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $164.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . The increase 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 and increased profitability adjusted for non-cash items.

Net cash used by investing activities was $91.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $531.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . The decrease in net cash used by investing activities was primarily attributable to:


•	a decrease in cash used for acquisitions of approximately $306.3 million; and


•	a decrease in the additional finance receivables held for investment of approximately $139.9 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $37.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared with $520.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . The decrease in net cash from financing activities was primarily attributable to:

Table of Contents


•	a decrease in net cash received of $336.2 million from the refinancing and repayment activities in 2017 compared with 2016;


•	a decrease in the additional obligations collateralized by finance receivables of approximately $96.8 million;


•	a smaller net increase in book overdrafts of approximately $20.2 million; and


•	an increase in dividend payments of $10.6 million.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 approximated $75.4 million and $75.5 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 $145 million for fiscal year 2017. Anticipated capital expenditures are primarily attributable to ongoing information system projects, improvements and expansion at vehicle auction facilities and improvements in information technology systems and infrastructure. Future capital expenditures could vary substantially based on capital project timing, the opening of new auction facilities, capital expenditures related to acquired businesses 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 $0.32 per share in 2017 using cash flow from operations, representing an annualized dividend of $1.28 per share. The following dividend information has been released for 2017:


•	On August 8, 2017, the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.32 per share that is payable on October 3, 2017, to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 20, 2017.


•	On May 9, 2017, the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.32 per share that was paid on July 6, 2017, to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 21, 2017.


•	On February 21, 2017, the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.32 per share that was paid on April 4, 2017, to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 22, 2017.


•	On November 3, 2016 , the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.32 per share that was paid on January 6, 2017 , to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 21, 2016 .

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, AFC's securitization facilities and the indenture governing our senior notes, 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

Table of Contents

In May 2017, the Company acquired Dependable Auto Shippers ("DAS"). DAS provides vehicle transportation services for corporate and personal vehicle transportation needs.

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 are summarized in the table of contractual obligations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Since December 31, 2016, there have been no material changes to the contractual obligations of the Company, with the exception of the following:

•

In May 2017, we amended our Credit Agreement which resulted in a decrease in interest rates on our credit facilities. In May 2017, we also issued $950 million of 5.125% senior notes due June 1, 2025. As a result of these refinancing activities, our annualized cash interest payments are generally neutral, but the maturity of $950 million of the debt was extended to 2025. In addition, the refinancing activities increased our outstanding debt by approximately $214 million since December 31, 2016.


•	In July 2017, 50% of the net cash proceeds from the sale-leaseback of certain technology and capital equipment were used to prepay $1.0 million and $1.5 million of Term Loan B-4 and Term Loan B-5, 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 7 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, 2016, 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, 2016, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

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, 2016 , as filed with the SEC. 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, 2016 , which includes audited financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2017 , 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 (the "Exchange Act").

New Accounting Standards

For a description of new accounting standards that could affect the Company, reference the "New Accounting Standards" section of Note 1 to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

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 dollar, British pound or Mexican peso. Canadian currency translation negatively affected net income by approximately $0.9 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , respectively. A 1% change in the average Canadian exchange rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 would have impacted net income by approximately $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Currency exposure of our U.K. 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 March 2017, we entered into two interest rate caps 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 2.0% . The interest rate cap agreements each had an effective date of March 31, 2017 and each matures on March 31, 2019. We paid an aggregate amount of approximately $0.7 million for the caps in April 2017.

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 exceeded 1.5%. The interest rate cap agreements cap three-month LIBOR at 1.5%, had an effective date of April 16, 2015 and matured 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, 2017 would have resulted in an increase in interest expense of approximately $4.7 million and $10.0 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, 2017 , that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

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 - the Lower Duwamish Waterway Group ("LDWG"), 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. On February 11, 2016, IAA received a Notice of Intent letter from the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration informing IAA that the Elliott Bay Trustee Council are beginning to conduct an injury assessment for natural resource damages in the LDW. The Notice of Intent indicates that the decision of the trustees to proceed with this natural resources injury assessment followed a pre-assessment screen performed by the trustees. More recently, in a letter dated August 16, 2016, EPA issued a status update to the PRPs at the LDW Site. The letter stated that EPA expects the bulk of the pre-remedial design work currently being performed by the LDWG to be completed by the beginning of 2018, with the Remedial Design/Remedial Action ("RD/RA")phase to follow. EPA expects to initiate RD/RA negotiations with all PRPs beginning in early 2018. 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. 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, 2016 , 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.
