NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. General:

References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to "we","our","us","LII" or the "Company" refer to Lennox International Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context requires otherwise.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2023, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Deficit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, and the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments, consisting principally of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

Our fiscal quarterly periods are comprised of approximately 13 weeks, but the number of days per quarter may vary year-over-year. Our quarterly reporting periods usually end on the Saturday closest to the last day of March, June and September. Our fourth quarter and fiscal year ends on December 31, regardless of the day of the week on which December 31 falls. For convenience, the 13-week periods comprising each fiscal quarter are denoted by the last day of the respective calendar quarter.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, contingencies, guarantee obligations, indemnifications, and assumptions used in the calculation of income taxes, pension and post-retirement medical benefits, self-insurance and warranty reserves, and stock-based compensation, among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on our best estimates and judgment.

We evaluate these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. We believe these estimates and assumptions to be reasonable under the circumstances and will adjust such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Volatile equity, foreign currency and commodity markets combine to increase the uncertainty inherent in such estimates and assumptions. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision and actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in these estimates will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.

2. Reportable Business Segments:

We operate in two reportable business segments of the heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (“HVACR”) industry. Our segments are organized primarily by the nature of the products and services we provide. The following table describes each segment:

Segment

Product or Services

Markets Served

Geographic Areas

Residential

Furnaces, air conditioners, heat pumps, packaged heating and cooling systems, indoor air quality equipment, comfort control products, replacement parts and supplies

Residential Replacement;
Residential New Construction

United States
Canada

Commercial

Unitary heating and air conditioning equipment, applied systems, controls, installation and service of commercial heating and cooling equipment, variable refrigerant flow commercial products, condensing units, unit coolers, fluid coolers, air cooled condensers, air handlers, controls, and compressorized racks

Light Commercial;
Food Preservation;
Non-Food/Industrial

United States
Canada

Prior to January 1, 2023, we operated in three reportable business segments. In November 2022, we announced the decision to explore strategic alternatives for our European commercial HVAC and refrigeration businesses. We will continue to invest in our Heatcraft Worldwide Refrigeration business which became part of the Commercial segment effective on January 1, 2023 while the European portfolio will be presented with Corporate and Other until disposition. The consolidation of our Heatcraft business within the Commercial segment provides the opportunity to leverage synergies and create long-term growth opportunities by integrating entities with similar products, end consumers and financial performance metrics under the same management. The change in segment reporting better aligns with how the businesses are managed and evaluated given the change in portfolio. See "Recast Segment Results" below for both the previously presented segment results as well as the recast financial information to reflect the change in our segment presentation.

We use segment profit or loss as the primary measure of profitability to evaluate operating performance and to allocate capital resources. We define segment profit or loss as a segment’s income or loss from continuing operations before income taxes included in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, excluding certain items. The reconciliation in the table below details the items excluded.

Our corporate costs include those costs related to our European operations, as well as our corporate functions such as legal, internal audit, treasury, human resources, tax compliance and senior executive staff. Any intercompany sales and associated profit (and any other intercompany items) are eliminated from segment results. There were no significant intercompany eliminations for the periods presented.

3. Earnings Per Share:

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted-average number of shares and the number of equivalent shares assumed outstanding, if dilutive, under our stock-based compensation plans.

The computations of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows (in millions, except per share data):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Net income	$	98.0	$	83.6



Weighted-average shares outstanding – basic	35.5		36.3
Add: Potential effect of dilutive securities attributable to stock-based payments	0.1		0.2
Weighted-average shares outstanding – diluted	35.6		36.5




Earnings per share – Basic:	$	2.76	$	2.30




Earnings per share – Diluted:	$	2.75	$	2.29

The following stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units were outstanding but not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation because the assumed exercise of such rights would have been anti-dilutive (in millions, except for per share data):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023	2022
Weighted-average number of shares	0.3	0.2

4. Commitments and Contingencies:

Leases

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as Right-of-use assets from operating leases, Current operating lease liabilities and Long-term operating lease liabilities. Finance leases are included in Property, plant and equipment, Current maturities of long-term debt and Long-term debt in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability for leases with a term of 12 months or less. We do not separate non-lease components from lease components to which they relate and have accounted for the combined lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

Many of our lease agreements contain renewal options; however, we do not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for renewal periods unless it is determined that we are reasonably certain of renewing the lease at inception or when a triggering event occurs. Some of our lease agreements contain rent escalation clauses (including index-based escalations), rent holidays, capital improvement funding or other lease concessions. We recognize our minimum rental expense on a straight-line basis based on the fixed components of a lease arrangement. We amortize this expense over the term of the lease beginning with the date of initial possession. Variable lease components represent amounts that are not fixed in nature and are not tied to an index or rate, and are recognized as incurred. Under certain of our third-party service agreements, we control a specific space or underlying asset used in providing the service by the third-party service provider. These arrangements meet the definition under ASC 842 and therefore are accounted for under ASC 842.

In determining our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, we apply a discount rate to the minimum lease payments within each lease agreement. ASC 842 requires us to use the rate of interest that a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. When we cannot readily determine the discount rate implicit in the lease agreement, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate. To

estimate our specific incremental borrowing rates over various periods (ranging from 1-year through 30-years), a comparable market yield curve consistent with our credit quality was calibrated to our publicly outstanding debt instruments.

We lease certain real and personal property under non-cancelable operating leases. Approximatel y 82 % of our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities relate to our leases of real estate with the remaining amounts primarily relating to our leases of IT equipment, fleet vehicles and manufacturing and distribution equipment.

Product Warranties and Product Related Contingencies

We provide warranties to customers for some of our products and record liabilities for the estimated future warranty-related costs based on failure rates, cost experience and other factors. We periodically review the assumptions used to determine the product warranty liabilities and will adjust the liabilities in future periods for changes in experience, as necessary.

Liabilities for estimated product warranty costs related to continuing operations are included in the following captions on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):


	As of March 31, 2023		As of December 31, 2022
Accrued expenses	$	42.3	$	41.3
Other liabilities	103.0		101.4
Total warranty liability	$	145.3	$	142.7

The changes in product warranty liabilities related to continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were as follows (in millions):



Total warranty liability as of December 31, 2022	$	142.7
Warranty claims paid	( 8.0 )
Changes resulting from issuance of new warranties	11.1
Changes in estimates associated with pre-existing liabilities	( 0.6 )
Changes in foreign currency translation rates and other	0.1

Total warranty liability as of March 31, 2023	$	145.3

Litigation

We are involved in a number of claims and lawsuits incident to the operation of our businesses. Insurance coverages are maintained and estimated costs are recorded for such claims and lawsuits, including costs to settle claims and lawsuits, based on experience involving similar matters and specific facts known.

It is management's opinion that none of these claims or lawsuits or any threatened litigation will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Claims and lawsuits, however, involve uncertainties and it is possible that their eventual outcome could adversely affect our results of operations for a particular period.

5. Stock Repurchases:

Our Board of Directors has authorized a total of $ 4.0 billion to repurchase shares of our common stock (collectively referred to as the "Share Repurchase Plans"), including a $ 1.0 billion share repurchase authorization in July 2021. The Share Repurchase Plans allow us to repurchase shares from time to time in open market transactions and in privately negotiated transactions based on business, market, applicable legal requirements and other considerations. The Share Repurchase Plans do not require the repurchase of a specific number of shares and may be terminated at any time. As of March 31, 2023, $ 546 million was available for repurchase under the Share Repurchase Plans.

We repurchased approximately $ 2.0 million of shares during the three months ended March 31, 2023 from employees who tendered their shares to satisfy minimum tax withholding obligations upon the vesting and exercise of stock-based compensation awards.

6. Revenue Recognition:

The following table disaggregates our revenue by business segment by geography which provides information as to the major source of revenue. See Note 2 for additional information on our reportable business segments and the products and services sold in each segment. All amount presented reflect the revised segment presentation.

(1) As discussed in Note 2, we adjusted our segment reporting to include the results of our Heatcraft businesses in Commercial and the results of our European portfolio in Corporate and Other. The amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2022 have been recast to reflect the revised segment presentation.

Residential - We manufacture and market a broad range of furnaces, air conditioners, heat pumps, packaged heating and cooling systems, equipment and accessories to improve indoor air quality, comfort control products, replacement parts and supplies and related products for both the residential replacement and new construction markets in North America. These products are sold under various brand names and are sold either through direct sales to a network of independent installing dealers, including through our network of Lennox stores or to independent distributors. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, direct sales represented 70 % and 66 % of revenues, and sales to independent distributors represented the remainder.

Commercial - In North America, we manufacture and sell unitary heating and cooling equipment used in light commercial applications, such as low-rise office buildings, restaurants, retail centers, churches and schools. These products are distributed primarily through commercial contractors and directly to national account customers in the planned replacement, emergency replacement and new construction markets. We manufacture and market equipment for the commercial refrigeration markets under the Heatcraft Worldwide Refrigeration name. Our products are used in the food retail, food service, cold storage as well as non-food refrigeration markets. We sell these products to distributors, installing contractors, engineering design firms, original equipment manufacturers and end-users. Lennox National Account Services provides installation, service and preventive maintenance for HVAC national account customers in the United States and Canada. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, equipment sales represented 85 % and 87 % of revenues and the remainder of our revenue was generated from our service business.

Corporate and Other - In Europe, we manufacture and market equipment for the global commercial refrigeration markets. We also manufacture and sell unitary heating and cooling products and applied systems. A de minimis amount of segment revenue relates to services for start-up and commissioning activities.

Contract Liabilities - Our contract liabilities consist of advance payments and deferred revenue. Net contract liabilities consisted of the following:


	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022

Contract liabilities - current	$	( 12.5 )	$	( 9.6 )
Contract liabilities - noncurrent	( 6.7 )		( 6.4 )
Total	$	( 19.2 )	$	( 16.0 )

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we recognized revenue of $ 3.0 million and $ 3.7 million related to our contract liabilities at January 1, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Impairment losses recognized in our receivables and contract assets were de minimis in 2023 and 2022.

7. Other Financial Statement Details:

Inventories:

The components of inventories are as follows (in millions):



	As of March 31, 2023		As of December 31, 2022
Finished goods	$	632.3	$	534.6
Work in process	9.0		8.9
Raw materials and parts	382.1		328.7
Subtotal	1,023.4		872.2
Excess of current cost over last-in, first-out cost	( 119.3 )		( 119.2 )
Total inventories, net	$	904.1	$	753.0

Goodwill:

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill in 2023, in total and by segment, are summarized in the table below (in millions):


	Balance at December 31, 2022		Goodwill Reallocation (1)		Changes in foreign currency translation rates		Balance at March 31, 2023
Residential	$	26.1	$	—	$	—	$	26.1
Commercial (1)	61.1		94.5		—		155.6
Refrigeration (1)	99.1		( 99.1 )		—		$	—
Corporate and Other (1)	—		4.6		—		4.6
Total Goodwill	$	186.3	$	—	$	—	186.3

We monitor our reporting units for indicators of impairment throughout the year to determine if a change in facts or circumstances warrants a re-evaluation of our goodwill. We have not recorded any goodwill impairments for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

(1) As discussed in Note 2, we recast our segment presentation to present our Heatcraft Worldwide Refrigeration business as a component of our Commercial segment and our European portfolio as a component of Corporate & Other. Since there is no longer a Refrigeration segment, we allocated goodwill to each segment based upon the relative fair value of the business.

Derivatives:

Objectives and Strategies for Using Derivative Instruments

Commodity Price Risk - We utilize a cash flow hedging program to mitigate our exposure to volatility in the prices of metal commodities used in our production processes. Our hedging program includes the use of futures contracts to lock in prices, and as a result, we are subject to derivative losses should the metal commodity prices decrease and gains should the prices increase. We utilize a dollar cost averaging strategy so that a higher percentage of commodity price exposures are hedged near-term and

lower percentages are hedged at future dates. This strategy allows for protection against near-term price volatility while allowing us to adjust to market price movements over time.

Interest Rate Risk - A portion of our debt bears interest at variable rates, and as a result, we are subject to variability in the cash paid for interest. To mitigate a portion of that risk, we may choose to engage in an interest rate swap hedging strategy to eliminate the variability of interest payment cash flows. We are not currently hedged against interest rate risk.

Foreign Currency Risk - Foreign currency exchange rate movements create a degree of risk by affecting the U.S. dollar value of assets and liabilities arising in foreign currencies. We seek to mitigate the impact of currency exchange rate movements on certain short-term transactions by periodically entering into foreign currency forward contracts.

Cash Flow Hedges

We have foreign exchange forward contracts and commodity futures contracts designated as cash flow hedges that are scheduled to mature throug h August 2024. Unrealized gains or losses from our cash flow hedges are included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) and are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 17 months based on the prices of the commodities and foreign currencies at the settlement dates. We recorded the following amounts in AOCL related to our cash flow hedges (in millions):


	As of March 31, 2023		As of December 31, 2022
Unrealized losses (gains), net on unsettled contracts	$	( 0.5 )	$	6.3
Income tax (benefit) expense	0.4		( 1.4 )
Unrealized losses (gains), net included in AOCL, net of tax (1)	$	( 0.1 )	$	4.9

(1) Assuming commodity prices and foreign currency exchange rates remain constant, we expect to reclassify $ 0.6 million of derivative losses as of March 31, 2023 into earnings within the next 12 months.

Stock-Based Compensation:

We issue various long-term incentive awards, including performance share units, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights under the Lennox International Inc. 2019 Incentive Plan, as amended and restated. Stock-based compensation expense related to continuing operations is included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations as follows (in millions):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Stock-based compensation expense	$	6.1	$	4.7

8. Pension Benefit Plans:

The components of net periodic benefit cost for pension benefits were as follows (in millions):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Service cost	$	0.6	$	1.1
Interest cost	2.2		1.5
Expected return on plan assets	( 2.4 )		( 2.3 )

Recognized actuarial loss	0.2		1.5
Other	( 0.1 )		( 0.1 )
Settlements and curtailments	0.2		0.1
Net periodic benefit cost	$	0.7	$	1.8

9. Income Taxes:

As of March 31, 2023 , we had approximately $ 3.8 million in total gross unrecognized tax benefits which, if recognized, would be recorded through the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We are currently in the Bridge program for our U.S. federal income taxes under the Internal Revenue Service’s Compliance Assurance Program for 2021. Our 2022 U.S. federal income tax return will be examined under the Internal Revenue Service’s pilot Bridge Plus program. We are also subject to examination by numerous other taxing authorities in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. We are generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by taxing authorities for years prior to 2016.

10. Lines of Credit and Financing Arrangements:

The following table summarizes our outstanding debt obligations and their classification in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):

Total long-term debt	$	1,010.1	$	814.2
Total debt	$	1,667.6	$	1,524.8

Foreign Obligations

Through several of our foreign subsidiaries, we have facilities available to assist us in financing seasonal borrowing needs for our foreign locations. We had no outstanding foreign obligations as of March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022 and there were no borrowings or repayments on these facilities during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Asset Securitization Program

Under the Asset Securitization Program (“ASP”), we are eligible to sell beneficial interests in a portion of our trade accounts receivable to a financial institution for cash. The ASP contains a provision whereby we retain the right to repurchase all of the outstanding beneficial interests transferred. As a result of the repurchase right, the transfer of the receivables under the ASP is not accounted for as a sale. Accordingly, the cash received from the transfer of the beneficial interests in our trade accounts receivable is reflected as secured borrowings in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and proceeds received are included in cash flows from financing activities in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Our continued involvement with the transferred assets includes servicing, collection and administration of the transferred beneficial interests. The accounts receivable securitized under the ASP are high-quality domestic customer accounts that have not aged significantly. The receivables represented by the retained interest that we service are exposed to the risk of loss for any uncollectible amounts in the pool of receivables transferred under the ASP.

We renewed the ASP in November 2021, extending its term to November 2023 and increasing the maximum securitization amount to a range from $ 300.0 million to $ 450.0 million, depending on the period. The maximum capacity under the ASP is the lesser of the maximum securitization amount or 100 % of the net pool balance less allowances, as defined by the ASP. Eligibility for securitization is limited based on the amount and quality of the qualifying accounts receivable and is calculated monthly. The eligible amounts available and beneficial interests sold were as follows (in millions):


	As of March 31, 2023		As of December 31, 2022
Eligible amount available under the ASP on qualified accounts receivable	$	297.3	$	350.0
Less: Beneficial interest transferred	( 297.0 )		( 350.0 )
Remaining amount available	$	0.3	$	—

We pay certain discount fees to use the ASP and to have the facility available to us. These fees relate to both the used and unused portions of the securitization. The used fee is based on the beneficial interests sold and calculated on either the average LIBOR rate or floating commercial paper rate determined by the purchaser of the beneficial interest, plus a program fee of 0.70 %. The average rates as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were 5.58 % and 5.17 %, respectively. The unused fee is based on 101 % of the maximum available amount less the beneficial interest transferred and is calculated at a rate ranging between 0.25 % and 0.35 %, depending on the available borrowings, throughout the term of the agreement. We recorded these fees in Interest expense, net in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The ASP contains certain restrictive covenants relating to the quality of our accounts receivable and cross-default provisions with our Credit Agreement (as defined below), senior unsecured notes and any other indebtedness we may have over $ 75.0 million. The administrative agent under the ASP is also a participant in our Credit Agreement, as defined below. The participating financial institutions have investment grade credit ratings. As of March 31, 2023, we believe we were in compliance with all covenant requirements.

Credit Agreement

In July 2021, we entered into a new Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto, which refinanced and replaced the Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Facility.

The Credit Agreement consists of a $ 750.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. We had outstanding borrowings of $ 388.0 million as well as $ 2.0 million committed to standby letters of credit as of March 31, 2023. Subject to covenant limitations, $ 360.0 million was available for future borrowings. The Credit Agreement includes a subfacility for swingline loans up to $ 65.0 million. The Credit Agreement will expire and outstanding loans will be required to be repaid in July 2026, unless maturity is extended by the lenders pursuant to two one-year extension options that we may request under the Credit Agreement.

Our weighted average borrowing rate on the facility was as follows:


	As of March 31, 2023		As of December 31, 2022
Weighted average borrowing rate	6.06	%	5.57	%

substantially all of our assets. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains a financial covenant requiring us to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter for the four prior fiscal quarters, a Total Net Leverage Ratio of no more than 3.50 to 1.00 (or, at our election, on up to two occasions following a material acquisition, 4.00 to 1.00).

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default. These events of default include nonpayment of principal or interest, breach of covenants or other restrictions or requirements, default on certain other indebtedness or receivables securitization (cross default), and bankruptcy. A cross default under our Credit Agreement could occur if:

• We fail to pay any principal or interest when due on any other indebtedness or receivables securitization exceeding $ 75.0 million; or

• We are in default in the performance of, or compliance with any term of any other indebtedness or receivables securitization in an aggregate principal amount exceeding $ 75.0 million or any other condition exists which would give the holders the right to declare such indebtedness due and payable prior to its stated maturity.

Each of our major debt agreements contains provisions by which a default under one agreement causes a default in the others (a “cross default”). If a cross default under the Credit Agreement, our senior unsecured notes, our lease of our corporate headquarters in Richardson, Texas (recorded as an operating lease), or our ASP were to occur, it could have a wider impact on our liquidity than might otherwise occur from a default of a single debt instrument or lease commitment.

If any event of default occurs and is continuing, the administrative agent, or lenders with a majority of the aggregate commitments may require the administrative agent to, terminate our right to borrow under our Credit Agreement and accelerate amounts due under our Credit Agreement (except for a bankruptcy event of default, in which case such amounts will automatically become due and payable and the lenders’ commitments will automatically terminate). As of March 31, 2023, we believe we were in compliance with all covenant requirements.

Senior Unsecured Notes

We issued two series of senior unsecured notes on July 30, 2020 for $ 300.0 million each, which will mature on August 1, 2025 (the "2025 Notes") and August 1, 2027 (the "2027 Notes") with interest being paid semi-annually on February and August at 1.35 % and 1.70 % respectively, per annum. We also issued $ 350.0 million of senior unsecured notes in November 2016 (the "2023 Notes," and together with the 2025 Notes and the 2027 Notes, the "Notes") which will mature on November 15, 2023 with interest being paid semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 at 3.00 % per annum.

All the Notes are guaranteed, on a senior unsecured basis, by certain of our subsidiaries that guarantee indebtedness under our Credit Agreement. The indenture governing the Notes contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of the subsidiary guarantors to: create or incur certain liens; enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions; and enter into certain mergers, consolidations and transfers of substantially all of our assets. The indenture also contains a cross default provision which is triggered if we default on other debt of at least $ 75.0 million in principal which is then accelerated, and such acceleration is not rescinded within 30 days of the notice date. As of March 31, 2023, we believe we were in compliance with all covenant requirements.

12. Fair Value Measurements:

Fair Value Hierarchy

The methodologies used to determine the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities at March 31, 2023 were the same as those used at December 31, 2022.

Assets and Liabilities Carried at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Derivatives were classified as Level 2 and primarily valued using estimated future cash flows based on observed prices from exchange-traded derivatives. We also considered the counterparty's creditworthiness, or our own creditworthiness, as appropriate. Adjustments were recorded to reflect the risk of credit default, however, they were insignificant to the overall value of the derivatives. Refer to Note 7 for more information related to our derivative instruments.

Other Fair Value Disclosures

The carrying amounts of Cash and cash equivalents, Short-term investments, Accounts and notes receivable, net, Accounts payable, and Short-term debt approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments. The carrying amount of our Credit Agreement in Long-term debt also approximates fair value due to its variable-rate characteristics.

The fair value of our senior unsecured notes in Long-term debt, classified as Level 2, was based on the amount of future cash flows using current market rates for debt instruments of similar maturities and credit risk. The following table presents their fair value (in millions):


	As of March 31, 2023		As of December 31, 2022
Senior unsecured notes	$	890.5	$	878.0

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

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are based on information currently available to management as well as management’s assumptions and beliefs as of the date such statements were made. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements, including but not limited to statements identified by forward-looking terminology, such as the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimate” and “expect” and similar expressions. Such statements reflect our current views with respect to future events, based on what we believe are reasonable assumptions; however, such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties.

In addition to the specific uncertainties discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the risk factors set forth in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and those set forth in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this report, if any, may affect our performance and results of operations. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. We disclaim any intention or obligation to update or review any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Business Overview

We operate in two reportable business segments of the heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (“HVACR”) industry. Our reportable segments are Residential and Commercial. For additional information regarding our reportable segments, see Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our fiscal quarterly periods are comprised of approximately 13 weeks, but the number of days per quarter may vary year-over-year. Our quarterly reporting periods usually end on the Saturday closest to the last day of March, June and September. Our fourth quarter and fiscal year ends on December 31, regardless of the day of the week on which December 31 falls. For convenience, throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, the 13-week periods comprising each fiscal quarter are denoted by the last day of the respective calendar quarter.

We sell our products and services through a combination of direct sales, distributors and company-owned parts and supplies stores. The demand for our products and services is seasonal and significantly impacted by the weather. Warmer than normal summer temperatures generate demand for replacement air conditioning and refrigeration products and services, and colder than normal winter temperatures have a similar effect on heating products and services. Conversely, cooler than normal summers and warmer than normal winters depress the demand for HVACR products and services. In addition to weather, demand for our products and services is influenced by national and regional economic and demographic factors, such as interest rates, the availability of financing, regional population and employment trends, new construction, general economic conditions, and consumer spending habits and confidence. A substantial portion of the sales in each of our business segments is attributable to replacement business, with the balance comprised of new construction business.

The principal elements of cost of goods sold are components, raw materials, factory overhead, labor, estimated warranty costs, and freight and distribution costs. The principal raw materials used in our manufacturing processes are steel, copper and aluminum. In recent years, pricing volatility for these commodities and related components, including the impact of imposed tariffs on the import of certain of our raw materials and components, has impacted us and the HVACR industry in general. We seek to mitigate the impact of volatility in commodity prices through a combination of price increases, commodity contracts, improved production efficiency and cost reduction initiatives. We also partially mitigate volatility in the prices of these commodities by entering into futures contracts and fixed forward contracts.

Change in Segment Reporting

Prior to January 1, 2023, we operated in three reportable business segments. In November 2022, we announced the decision to explore strategic alternatives for our European commercial HVAC and refrigeration businesses. We will continue to operate and invest in our Heatcraft Worldwide Refrigeration business which became part of the Commercial segment effective on January 1, 2023, while the European portfolio will be presented with Corporate and Other until disposition. The consolidation of our Heatcraft business within the Commercial segment provides the opportunity to leverage synergies and create long-term growth opportunities by integrating entities with similar products, end consumers and financial performance metrics under the same management. The change in segment reporting better aligns with how the businesses are managed and evaluated given the change in portfolio. All amounts discussed in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations reflect the revised segment presentation. See "Recast Segment Results" in Note 2 for both the previously presented segment results as well as the recast financial information to reflect the change in segment presentation.

Financial Overview

Results for the first quarter of 2023 were driven by overall year-over-year sales and profit increases. Net sales decreased less than 1% and segment profit increased $3 million for the Residential segment. Net sales increased 10% and segment profit increased $26 million for the Commercial segment. Net sales increased 15% and segment loss increased $3 million for the Corporate & Other segment.

Financial Highlights

• Net sales increased $36 million to $1,049 million in the first quarter of 2023 driven by favorable price and mix partially offset by lower sales volume and unfavorable foreign currency.

• Operating income in the first quarter of 2023 increased $28 million to $139.5 million primarily driven by higher net sales partially offset by rising costs.

• Net income for the first quarter of 2023 was $98 million.

• Diluted earnings per share was $2.75 per share in the first quarter of 2023 compared to $2.29 per share in the first quarter of 2022.

• For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we returned $38 million to shareholders through dividend payments.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 - Consolidated Results

The following table provides a summary of our financial results, including information presented as a percentage of net sales:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	Dollars (in millions)				Percent Change Fav/(Unfav)		Percent of Sales
	2023		2022				2023		2022

Operating income	$	139.5	$	111.9	24.7	%	13.3	%	11.0	%

Net Sales

Net sales for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022 increased as a result of favorable price of 6% and favorable product mix of 5% which was partially offset by lower sales volume of 7% due to general lower residential industry volumes.

Gross Profit

Gross profit margins in the first quarter of 2023 increased 270 basis points ("bps") to 29.2% compared to 26.5% in the first quarter of 2022. Gross margins increased 400 bps from favorable price, 290 bps from favorable product mix and 90 bps from favorable commodity costs. Partially offsetting these increases were 180 bps from lower volume, 120 bps from higher other product costs, 100 bps from higher component costs, 60 bps from factory inefficiencies, 40 bps from higher freight and distribution costs, and 10 bps from miscellaneous other items.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased $12 million to $167.5 million in the first quarter of 2023 compared to $155.3 million in the first quarter of 2022 due to higher employee related costs. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A increased 70 bps to 16.0%.

Losses (gains) and Other Expenses, Net

Losses (gains) and other expenses, net for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022 included the following (in millions):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Realized gains on settled future contracts	$	—	$	(0.3)
Foreign currency exchange gains	(0.8)		(0.3)
Gain on disposal of fixed assets	(0.3)		(0.9)
Other operating income	(0.8)		(0.3)
Net change in unrealized gains (losses) on unsettled futures contracts	(0.2)		(0.7)
Environmental liabilities and special litigation charges	2.4		2.1
Charges incurred related to COVID-19 pandemic	—		0.3
Other items, net	—		0.5
Losses (gains) and other expenses, net (pre-tax)	$	0.3	$	0.4

Restructuring Charges

Restructuring charges were immaterial in the first quarter of 2023 and 2022. Restructuring charges related to ongoing cost reduction actions taken in prior periods.

Income from Equity Method Investments

We participate in two joint ventures that are engaged in the manufacture and sale of compressors, unit coolers and condensing units. We exert significant influence over these affiliates based upon our ownership, but do not control them due to venture partner participation. Accordingly, these joint ventures have been accounted for under the equity method and their financial position and results of operations are not consolidated. We recognized income from equity method investments of $1 million in the first quarter of 2023 and a loss of $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2022 .

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net increased to $14 million in the first quarter of 2023 from $7 million in the first quarter of 2022 due to higher borrowings costs during the period.

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate was 21.7% for the first quarter of 2023 compared to 19.9% for the first quarter of 2022. The rate increased primarily due to a shift in earnings between jurisdictions.

We expect our annual effective tax rate to be 19-21%, excluding the impacts of excess tax benefits recorded as a reduction of income taxes under ASU No. 2016-09.

First Quarter of 2023 Compared to First Quarter of 2022 - Results by Segment

Residential

The following table presents our Residential segment's net sales and profit for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022 (dollars in millions):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023			2022			Difference		% Change
Net sales	$	681.0		$	682.2		$	(1.2)	(0.2)	%
Profit	$	111.1		$	107.6		$	3.5	3.3	%
% of net sales	16.3		%	15.8		%

Net sales decreased 0.2% in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 2022, as sales volume declined 8% and foreign currency and other was 1% unfavorable. Offsetting these declines were favorable product mix of 5% and higher price of 4%.

Segment profit in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 2022 increased by $3 million, driven by $25 million from higher price, $9 million from favorable product mix, $6 million from lower commodity costs and $5 million from lower product warranty costs. Partially offsetting these increases were $12 million from lower sales volume, $6 million from higher component costs, $6 million from higher distribution and freight charges, $6 million from higher SG&A costs, $5 million from factory inefficiencies, $4 million from miscellaneous other costs, and $3 million from higher other product costs.

Commercial

The following table presents our Commercial segment's net sales and profit for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022 (dollars in millions):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023			2022 (1)			Difference		% Change
Net sales	$	308.7		$	279.5		$	29.2	10.4	%
Profit	$	50.0		$	23.8		$	26.2	110.1	%
% of net sales	16.2		%	8.5		%

(1) 2022 amounts have been recast to reflect the changes in segment reporting. Please see Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail.

Net sales increased 10% in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 2022 as price increased 9% and improved product mix was 7% favorable. Partially offsetting these increases was a decline in sales volume of 6%.

Segment profit in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 2022 increased $26 million due to $26 million from favorable price,$16 million from favorable product mix, $4 million from lower commodity prices, $2 million from favorable freight and distribution costs, and $1 million from favorable factory productivity. Partially offsetting these increases was $9 million from higher other product costs, $5 million from lower sales volume, $3 million from higher component costs, $3 million from higher SG&A costs, $2 million from higher product warranty costs, and $1 million from higher miscellaneous other costs.

Corporate and Other

The following table presents our Corporate and Other segment's net sales and profit for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022 (dollars in millions):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022 (1)		Difference		% Change
Net sales	$	59.7	$	51.7	$	8.0	15.5	%
Profit	$	(19.4)	$	(16.8)	$	(2.6)	15.5	%

(1) 2022 amounts have been recast to reflect the changes in segment reporting. Please see Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail.

Net sales increased $8 million and segment profit decreased $3 million in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 2022. Corporate and Other profit excluding the results of Europe decreased $6 million to $19 million in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to increased incentive compensation costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our working capital and capital expenditure requirements are generally met through internally generated funds, bank lines of credit and an asset securitization arrangement. Working capital needs are generally greater in the first and second quarters due to the seasonal nature of our business cycle.

Statement of Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flow activity for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 (in millions):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(78.8)	$	(97.9)
Net cash used in investing activities	(33.7)		(25.7)
Net cash provided by financing activities	101.1		129.1

Net Cash Used In Operating Activities - The change in net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the net cash used in operating activities for the same period in 2022 reflects changes in working capital and an increase in net income.

Net Cash Used In Investing Activities - Capital expenditures were $35 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $26 million in the same period of 2022. Capital expenditures in 2023 were related to our Commercial factory in Mexico, the general expansion of manufacturing capacity and equipment, and investments in systems and software to support the overall enterprise.

Net Cash Provided By Financing Activities - Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased to $101 million compared to $129 million used in the same period of 2022. The change was primarily due to less net borrowings partially offset by less spent on share repurchases. We did not repurchase any shares for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $200 million in the same period of 2022. We returned $38 million to shareholders through dividend payments for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $34 million in the same period of 2022. For additional information on share repurchases, refer to Note 5 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Debt Position

The following table details our lines of credit and financing arrangements as of March 31, 2023 (in millions):


	Outstanding Borrowings





Current maturities of long-term debt:
Asset securitization program (2)	$	297.0
Finance lease obligations	10.9
Senior unsecured notes	350.0

Debt issuance costs	(0.4)
Total current maturities of long-term debt	$	657.5
Long-term debt:

Finance lease obligations	27.8
Credit agreement (1)	388.0
Senior unsecured notes	600.0
Debt issuance costs	(5.7)
Total long-term debt	1,010.1
Total debt	$	1,667.6

(1) The available future borrowings on our Credit Agreement (as defined below) are $360.0 million, after being reduced by the outstanding borrowings and $2.0 million in outstanding standby letters of credit. Refer to Note 10 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

(2) The maximum securitization amount ranges from $300.0 million to $450.0 million, depending on the period. The maximum capacity of the ASP is the lesser of the maximum securitization amount or 100% of the net pool balance less reserves, as defined under the ASP. Refer to Note 10 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Both our Asset Securitization Program as well as our $350.0 million 2023 Notes will mature during the year. We are currently evaluating our options related to these obligations including refinancing and other alternatives. We do not believe that our options or alternatives will have any material impact on our results of operations or liquidity.

Credit Agreement

In July 2021, we entered into a new Credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto, which refinanced and replaced the Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Facility.

The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit commitments of $750 million with sublimits for swingline loans of up to $65 million, letters of credit up to $100 million and revolving loans in certain non-U.S. currencies up to the U.S. dollar equivalent of $40 million. The Credit Agreement will expire and outstanding loans will be required to be repaid in July 2026, unless maturity is extended by the lenders pursuant to two one-year extension options that we may request under the Credit Agreement. At our request and subject to certain conditions, the revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement may be increased by up to a total of $350 million to the extent that existing or new lenders agree to provide additional commitments.

The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries and contains customary covenants applicable to us and our subsidiaries including limitations on indebtedness, liens, dividends, stock repurchases, mergers and sales of all or substantially all of our assets. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains a financial covenant requiring us to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter for the four prior fiscal quarters, a Total Net Leverage Ratio of no more than 3.50 to 1.00 (or, at our election, on up to two occasions following a material acquisition, 4.00 to 1.00). The Credit Agreement is subject to customary events of default, including non-payment of principal or other amounts under the Credit Agreement, material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, breach of covenants, cross-default to other indebtedness in excess of $75 million, judgements in excess of $75 million, certain voluntary and involuntary bankruptcy events, and the occurrence of a change of control. As of March 31, 2023, we believe we were in compliance with all covenant requirements.

Financial Leverage

We periodically review our capital structure to ensure the appropriate levels of leverage and liquidity. We may access the capital markets, as necessary, based on business needs and to take advantage of favorable interest rate environments or other market conditions. We also evaluate our debt-to-capital and debt-to-EBITDA ratios to determine, among other considerations,

the appropriate targets for capital expenditures and share repurchases under our share repurchase programs. Our debt-to-total-capital ratio decreased to 108% at March 31, 2023 from 115% at December 31, 2022.

As of March 31, 2023, our senior credit ratings were Baa2 with a stable outlook, and BBB with a stable outlook, by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") and Standard & Poor's Rating Group ("S&P"), respectively. The security ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. Our goal is to maintain investment grade ratings from Moody's and S&P to help ensure the capital markets remain available to us.

Liquidity

We believe our cash and cash equivalents of $40 million, future cash generated from operations and available borrowing capacity are sufficient to fund operations, planned capital expenditures, future contractual obligations, potential share repurchases and dividends and other needs in the foreseeable future. Included in our cash and cash equivalents of $40 million as of March 31, 2023 was $22 million of cash held in foreign locations. Our cash held in foreign locations is used for investing and operating activities in those locations, and we generally do not have the need or intent to repatriate those funds to the United States. An actual repatriation in the future from our non-U.S. subsidiaries could be subject to foreign withholding taxes and U.S. state taxes.

Guarantees related to our Debt Obligations

Our senior unsecured notes were issued by Lennox International Inc. and are unconditionally guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries"). The Guarantor Subsidiaries are 100% owned and consolidated, all guarantees are full and unconditional, and all guarantees are joint and several.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

An off-balance sheet arrangement is any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement involving an unconsolidated entity under which the company has: (1) made guarantees, (2) a retained or a contingent interest in transferred assets, (3) an obligation under derivative instruments classified as equity or (4) any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to us, or that engages in leasing, hedging or research and development arrangements with us. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that we believe may have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

For information regarding our commitments, contingencies and guarantees, see Note 4 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There were no recent accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on our financial statements and disclosures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting LII, see "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in Item 7A of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2022.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our current management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We are involved in a number of claims and lawsuits incident to the operation of our businesses. Insurance coverages are maintained and estimated costs are recorded for such claims and lawsuits. It is management's opinion that none of these claims or lawsuits will have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
