Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking words, such as "may," "could," "should," "estimate," "project," "forecast," "intend," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "target," "plan" or other comparable words, or by discussions of strategy that may involve risks and uncertainties.
These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results including, but not limited to, risks and uncertainties with respect to: the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, including, without limitation, supply chain and logistics issues and inflationary pressures; interest rate volatility; liabilities and restrictions imposed by the Company's debt instruments, including the Company's ability to comply with the applicable financial covenants related thereto or obtain any necessary amendments or waivers with respect to such financial covenants; market demand; competitive factors; supply constraints and shipping disruptions; material, logistics and energy costs, including the increased material costs resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic; inflation and deflation rates; the impact the conflict between Russia and Ukraine has on our business, financial condition or future results, including the duration and scope of such conflict, its impact on disruptions and inefficiencies in our supply chain and our ability to procure certain raw materials, as well as on our energy supply in Europe; technology factors; litigation; government and regulatory actions including the impact of any tariffs, quotas, or surcharges; the Company's accounting policies; future trends; general economic and currency conditions, including recessionary conditions; various conditions specific to the Company's business and industry; the success of the Company's action plan, including the actual amount of savings and timing thereof; the success of the Company's business improvement initiatives in Europe-Africa, including the amount of savings and timing thereof; the Company's exposure to product liability claims from customers and end users, and the costs associated therewith; factors affecting the Company's business that are outside of its control, including natural disasters and severe weather conditions (including those caused by climate change), pandemics, including the current COVID-19 pandemic, accidents and governmental actions; our ability to regain and remain in compliance with the New York Stock Exchange's ("NYSE") minimum market capitalization requirement; and other risks that are discussed in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors." in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. The risks described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deemed to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations or cash flows.
The cautionary statements set forth above should be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect the Company. We do not undertake any obligation to review or confirm analysts' expectations or estimates or to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as otherwise required by law.
We disclose important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations implied by our forward-looking statements under Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and elsewhere in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. These cautionary statements qualify all forward-looking statements attributed to us or persons acting on our behalf. When we indicate that an event, condition or circumstance could or would have an adverse effect on us, we mean to include effects upon our business, financial and other conditions, results of operations, prospects and ability to service our debt.

HORIZON GLOBAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
Horizon Global Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Horizon Global," "we," "our," or the "Company") are a designer, manufacturer and distributor of a wide variety of high quality, custom-engineered towing, trailering, cargo management and other related accessory products in the North American, European and African markets. These products are designed to support aftermarket, automotive original equipment manufacturers ("automotive OEMs") and automotive original equipment servicers ("automotive OESs") (collectively, "OEs"), retail, e-commerce and industrial customers within the agricultural, automotive, construction, horse/livestock, industrial, marine, military, recreational, trailer and utility markets. The Company groups its business into operating segments generally by the region in which sales and manufacturing efforts are focused. The Company's operating segments are Horizon Americas and Horizon Europe-Africa. See Note 13, Segment Information, for further information on the Company's operating segments.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") for complete financial statements. It is management's opinion that these condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including adjustments of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates, judgments, and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company believes estimates, judgments and assumptions made when accounting for items and matters such as, but not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, sales incentives, sales returns, impairment assessment of indefinite-lived intangible assets, recoverability of long-lived assets, income taxes (including deferred taxes and uncertain tax positions), stock compensation, the assessment of lower of cost or net realizable value on inventory, useful lives assigned to long-lived assets, depreciation and amortization, estimates related to lease liability and operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") asset valuations, estimated future unrecoverable lease costs, legal and product liability matters, valuation of debt instruments and warrants, assets and obligations related to employee benefits, and the respective allocation methods, are reasonable based on information available at the time they are made. To the extent there are differences between these estimates and actual results, our consolidated financial statements may be materially affected.
Discussion of Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company has a history of recurring net operating losses and cash outflows from operations. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants in agreements governing its debt. However, based on the Company's projected financial performance for the twelve-month period subsequent to the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company projects that it will not be in compliance with a financial covenant under the Company's Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement, as defined in Note 7, Long-term Debt,as of March 31, 2023, which would result in an event of default. Such a default would allow the lender under the Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement to accelerate the maturity of the debt, which carries a balance of $225.0 million as of June 30, 2022, making it due and payable at that time. This would, in turn, result in cross-default of the Company's Revolving Credit Facility, as defined in Note 7, Long-term Debt, which carries a balance of $73.9 million as of June 30, 2022. The Company does not have sufficient cash on hand or available liquidity that can be utilized to repay these outstanding amounts in the event of default.
In response to the potential covenant breach, the Company is in discussions with its lender to amend the terms of its financial covenant under the Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement. The Company has a history of successfully amending and extending credit agreements with its current lenders and believes it is probable such amendment will be completed. We believe that these actions will allow the Company to continue as a going concern and remain in compliance with our financial covenants for the twelve months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Disaggregation of Sales
The Company disaggregates net sales from contracts with customers by major sales channel. The Company determined that disaggregating its net sales into these categories best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The aftermarket channel represents sales to automotive installers and warehouse distributors. The automotive OEM channel represents sales to automotive vehicle manufacturers. The automotive OES channel primarily represents sales to automotive vehicle dealerships. The retail channel represents sales to direct-to-consumer retailers. The e-commerce channel represents sales to retailers whose customers utilize the Internet to purchase the Company's products. The industrial channel represents sales to non-automotive manufacturers and dealers of agricultural equipment, trailers, and other custom assemblies. The other channel represents sales that do not fit into a category described above and these sales are considered ancillary to the Company's core operating activities.

14. Income Taxes
At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company makes an estimate of the annual effective income tax rate. Tax items included in the annual effective income tax rate are pro-rated for the full year and tax items discrete to a specific quarter are included in the effective income tax rate for that quarter. Effective tax rates vary from period to period as separate calculations are performed for those countries where the Company's operations are profitable and whose results continue to be tax-effected and for those countries where full deferred tax valuation allowances exist and are maintained. In determining the estimated annual effective tax rate, the Company analyzes various factors, including but not limited to, forecasts of projected annual earnings, taxing jurisdictions in which the pretax income and/or pretax losses will be generated, and available tax planning strategies.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the effective income tax rate was (2.0)% and (1.4)%, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the effective income tax rate was 59.3% and (20.4)%, respectively. The differences in the effective tax rate compared to the statutory tax rate are attributable to the valuation allowance recorded in the U.S. and several foreign jurisdictions, which resulted in no income tax benefit recognized for jurisdictional pretax losses, and therefore, are excluded from the estimated effective tax rate.
The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis. In completing this evaluation, the Company considers all available evidence in order to determine whether, based on the weight of the evidence, a valuation allowance is necessary. Full valuation allowances that are recorded for deferred tax assets in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions will be maintained until sufficient positive evidence exists to reduce or eliminate them. The factors considered by management in its determination of the probability of the realization of the deferred tax assets include, but are not limited to, recent historical financial results, historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies. If, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded. The Company has recently experienced pre-tax losses. As of June 30, 2022, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the recorded deferred tax assets will be realized.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition contains forward-looking statements regarding industry outlook and our expectations regarding the performance of our business. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described under the heading "Forward-Looking Statements," at the beginning of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.
You should read the following discussion together with the Company's reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 (See Item 1A. Risk Factors).
Overview
Headquartered in Plymouth, Michigan, Horizon Global Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Horizon Global," "we," "our," or the "Company") are a leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of a wide variety of high-quality, custom-engineered towing, trailering, cargo management and other related accessory products in the North American, European and African markets, primarily servicing the aftermarket, automotive original equipment manufacturers ("automotive OEMs") and automotive original equipment servicers ("automotive OESs") (collectively, "OEs"), retail, e-commerce and industrial channels, supporting our customers generally through a regional service and delivery model.
Critical factors affecting our ability to succeed include:
•Our ability to realize the expected future economic benefits resulting from the changes made to our manufacturing operations, distribution footprint and management team in recent years, including the implementation of operational improvement initiatives, which are continuously ongoing to support margin expansion;
•Our ability to continue to manage our liquidity, including continuing to service our debt obligations and comply with the applicable financial covenants thereto, especially given our recent debt refinancing activities and capital structure alignment to support business growth and our long-term strategic plan;
•Our ability to quickly and cost-effectively introduce new products to our customers and end-user market with a resulting streamlined customer service model and improved operating margins;
•Our ability to continue to successfully launch new products and customer programs to expand or realign our geographic coverage or distribution channels and realize desired operating efficiencies and product line or customer content penetration;
•Our ability to efficiently manage our cost structure via global supply base management, internal sourcing and/or purchasing of materials, freight and logistics management, selective outsourcing of support functions, working capital management and a global approach to leverage our administrative functions; and
•Our ability to manage liquidity and other economic and business uncertainties that may result in future business disruption, including inflation and deflation rates, interest rate volatility, the ongoing global semiconductor shortage, transportation and other logistic constraints and the COVID-19 pandemic.
If we are unable to do any of the foregoing successfully, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely impacted.
Horizon Global reports its business in two operating segments: Horizon Americas and Horizon Europe-Africa. See Note 13, Segment Information, included in Part I, Item 1, "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further description of the Company's operating segments.
Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of sales in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Other shipping and handling expenses, which primarily relate to Horizon Americas' distribution network, are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Supplemental Analysis and Segment Information
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company's management utilizes Adjusted EBITDA as the key measure of company and segment performance and for planning and forecasting purposes, as management believes this measure is most reflective of the operational profitability or loss of the Company and its operating segments and provides management and investors with information to evaluate the operating performance of its business and is representative of its performance used to measure certain of its financial covenants, further discussed in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section below. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income attributable to Horizon Global, which is the most directly comparable financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA that is prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, as determined and measured by Horizon Global, should also not be compared to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The Company also uses operating profit (loss) to measure stand-alone segment performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Horizon Global before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and before certain items, as applicable, such as severance, restructuring, relocation and related business disruption costs, gains (losses) on extinguishment of debt, impairment of goodwill and other intangibles, non-cash stock compensation, certain product liability and litigation claims, acquisition and integration costs, gains (losses) on business divestitures and other assets, debt issuance costs, board transition support and non-cash unrealized foreign currency remeasurement costs.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2021
Consolidated net sales decreased $40.9 million, or 18.4%, to $181.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $222.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. Net sales for Horizon Americas decreased $17.5 million, driven primarily by lower sales volumes in the aftermarket sales channel, partially offset by customer pricing recovery initiatives put in place in response to commodity and input cost increases. Net sales for Horizon Europe-Africa decreased $23.4 million, driven primarily by lower sales volumes in the aftermarket and OE sales channels and unfavorable currency translation, partially offset by customer pricing recovery initiatives put in place in response to commodity and input cost increases.
Gross profit margin (gross profit as a percentage of net sales) was 11.4% and 21.3% during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decline in gross profit margin is primarily due to lower net sales in Horizon Americas and Horizon Europe-Africa as detailed above, coupled with unfavorable cost performance, primarily attributable to unfavorable material, supply chain and other manufacturing input costs associated with global macroeconomic factors experienced during the second quarter of 2022.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses decreased $4.9 million, primarily attributable to $2.0 million lower personnel and other variable compensation costs across the Company and favorable currency translation in Horizon Europe-Africa.
Operating margin (operating (loss) profit as a percentage of net sales) was (5.7)% and 5.1% during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Operating profit declined $21.6 million to an operating loss of $10.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to an operating profit of $11.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The changes in operating profit and operating margin were primarily due to the gross profit performance decline detailed above.
Other expense, net increased $1.4 million to $3.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $2.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily attributable to $3.3 million of higher foreign currency loss during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The loss during the three months ended June 30, 2021, was primarily attributable to the $2.2 million loss on the sale of the Company's Brazil business, which did not recur in 2022.
Interest expense increased $1.3 million to $8.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $7.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of the Company's amendment to its Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement, as defined below, in February 2022, which resulted in additional borrowings and increased interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. Interest expense also increased as a result of additional borrowings on the Company's Revolving Credit Facility, as defined below. Refer to Note 7, Long-term Debt, in Part I, Item 1, "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,"included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information of the Company's long-term debt.
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was (2.0)% and 59.3%, respectively. The effective income tax rate for both periods is attributable to the Company's valuation allowance recorded in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions, which resulted in no income tax benefit recognized for jurisdictional pretax losses, and therefore, are excluded from the estimated effective tax rate.
Net loss increased $23.4 million to $22.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net income of $1.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The change in net loss was attributable to the operational results detailed above.
See below for a discussion of operating results by segment.

Total $ 110,920 $ 128,380 $ (17,460) (13.6) %
Net sales decreased $17.5 million, or 13.6%, to $110.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $128.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily attributable to lower sales volumes in the aftermarket and retail sales channels. The decrease in net sales was partially offset by $16.9 million of customer pricing recoveries, primarily in the aftermarket, OE, retail and e-commerce sales channels, to recover increased material and input costs. The decrease was also partially offset by a $1.9 million reduction in sales returns and allowances.
Horizon Americas' gross profit decreased $17.9 million, or 50.9%, to $17.2 million, or 15.5% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $35.1 million, or 27.3% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit and gross profit margin reflects the changes in net sales detailed above, inclusive of a significant mix shift from higher margin sales channels to lower margin sales channels, and is net of customer pricing recoveries discussed above. Gross profit and gross profit margin were also negatively impacted in the second quarter of 2022 by increased material, supply chain and other manufacturing input costs attributable to significant commodity and logistics cost increases in the Company's supply chain due to global macroeconomic factors. These global macroeconomic factors impacted business performance and were not able to be fully passed through to our customers during the second quarter of 2022, given there is generally a delay in such recoveries due to market pressures and restrictions within certain customer contracts.
SG&A expenses decreased $2.5 million to $15.8 million, or 14.3% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $18.3 million, or 14.3% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in SG&A expenses is primarily attributable to the following:
-$1.2 million lower personnel and other variable compensation costs; and
-$0.4 million lower outside professional fees and other administrative costs.
Horizon Americas' operating profit decreased $15.4 million to $1.4 million, or 1.3% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $16.8 million, or 13.1% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decline in operating profit and operating margin were primarily due to the operational results detailed above.
Horizon Americas' Adjusted EBITDA was $3.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $18.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. Adjusted EBITDA declined due to the operational results detailed above.

Net sales decreased $23.4 million, or 25.0%, to $70.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $93.7 million, during the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily attributable to lower sales volumes in the aftermarket and OE sales channels. The decrease includes $8.7 million of unfavorable currency translation. The decrease was partially offset by $8.1 million of customer pricing recoveries, primarily in the aftermarket and OE sales channels, to recover increased material and input costs.
Horizon Europe-Africa's gross profit decreased $8.7 million, or 71.3%, to $3.5 million, or 5.0% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $12.2 million, or 13.0% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit and gross profit margin reflects the changes in net sales detailed above, coupled with the unfavorable impact of increased material, supply chain and other manufacturing input costs, net of customer pricing recoveries. Gross profit and gross profit margin were also negatively impacted in the second quarter of 2022 by the inability to flex costs efficiently resulting from OEM customer production schedule changes. The input cost increases were not able to be fully passed through to our customers during the second quarter of 2022, given there is generally a delay in such recoveries due to market pressures and restrictions within certain customer contracts.
SG&A expenses decreased $3.2 million to $7.8 million, or 11.0% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $11.0 million, or 11.7% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in SG&A expenses is primarily attributable to the following:
-$1.0 million of favorable currency translation; and
-$0.8 million of lower outside professional fees and other administrative costs.
Horizon Europe-Africa's operating profit decreased $5.5 million to an operating loss of $4.3 million, or (6.0)% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to an operating profit of $1.2 million, or 1.3% of net sales, during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decline in operating profit and operating margin were primarily due to the operational results detailed above.
Horizon Europe-Africa's Adjusted EBITDA was $(1.5) million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $5.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. Adjusted EBITDA declined due to the operational results detailed above.
Corporate Expenses
Corporate expenses included in operating loss increased $0.8 million to $7.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $6.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to $0.5 million of additional severance costs in the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Corporate Adjusted EBITDA was $(5.7) million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $(5.6) million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The change in Adjusted EBITDA was driven by insignificant changes to Corporate expenses.

Results of Operations

Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Consolidated net sales decreased $59.2 million, or 14.1%, to $362.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $421.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Net sales for Horizon Americas decreased $25.3 million, driven primarily by lower sales volumes in the aftermarket and retail sales channels, partially offset by customer pricing recovery initiatives put in place in response to commodity and input cost increases. Net sales for Horizon Europe-Africa decreased $33.9 million, driven primarily by lower sales volumes in the aftermarket and OE sales channels and unfavorable currency translation, partially offset by customer pricing recovery initiatives put in place in response to commodity and input cost increases.
Gross profit margin was 11.3% and 20.9% during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decline in gross profit margin is primarily due to lower net sales in Horizon Americas and Horizon Europe-Africa as detailed above, coupled with unfavorable cost performance, primarily attributable to unfavorable material, supply chain and other manufacturing input costs associated with global macroeconomic factors experienced during 2022.
SG&A expenses decreased $4.9 million primarily attributable to $2.7 million lower personnel and other variable compensation costs across the Company and favorable currency translation in Horizon Europe-Africa.
Operating margin was (6.6)% and 4.3% during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Operating profit declined $42.0 million to an operating loss of $23.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, from an operating profit of $18.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The changes in operating profit and operating margin were primarily due to the gross profit performance decline detailed above.
Other expense, net increased $4.7 million to $8.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $4.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily attributable to $2.5 million of higher foreign currency loss during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was also due to a $1.0 million commitment fee per the terms of the commitment letter associated with the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, as defined below, during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Refer to Note 8, Redeemable Preferred Stock, in Part I, Item 1, "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,"included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on the Company's Series B Preferred Stock.
Interest expense increased $2.0 million to $16.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $14.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of the Company's amendment to its Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement in February 2022, which resulted in additional borrowings as well as increased interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. Refer to Note 7, Long-term Debt, in Part I, Item 1, "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,"included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information of the Company's long-term debt.
The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was (1.4)% and (20.4)%, respectively. The effective income tax rate for both periods is attributable to the Company's valuation allowance recorded in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions, which resulted in no income tax benefit recognized for jurisdictional pretax losses, and therefore, are excluded from the estimated effective tax rate.
Net loss increased $35.2 million, to $49.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a net loss of $14.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The change in net loss was attributable to the operational results detailed above.

Total $ 212,860 $ 238,210 $ (25,350) (10.6) %
Net sales decreased $25.3 million, or 10.6%, to $212.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $238.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily attributable to lower sales volumes in the aftermarket and retail sales channels. The decrease in net sales was partially offset by $29.5 million of customer pricing recoveries, primarily in the aftermarket, OE, retail and e-commerce sales channels, to recover increased material and input costs. The decrease was also partially offset by a $4.6 million reduction in sales returns and allowances.
Horizon Americas' gross profit decreased $34.3 million, or 53.2%, to $30.1 million, or 14.1% of net sales, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $64.4 million, or 27.0% of net sales, during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit and gross profit margin reflects the changes in net sales detailed above, inclusive of a significant mix shift from higher margin sales channels to lower margin sales channels, and is net of customer pricing recoveries discussed above. Gross profit and gross profit margin were also negatively impacted during the first half of 2022 by increased material, supply chain and other manufacturing input costs attributable to significant commodity and logistics cost increases in the Company's supply chain due to global macroeconomic factors. These global macroeconomic factors impacted business performance and were not able to be fully passed through to our customers during the first half of 2022, given there is generally a delay in such recoveries due to market pressures and restrictions within certain customer contracts.
SG&A expenses decreased $2.8 million to $33.0 million, or 15.5% of net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $35.8 million, or 15.0% of net sales, during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in SG&A expenses is primarily attributable to the following:
-$1.3 million lower personnel and other variable compensation costs; and
-$0.5 million lower distribution center lease, operating and support costs.
Horizon Americas' operating profit decreased $31.5 million to an operating loss of $2.9 million, or (1.4)% of net sales, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to an operating profit of $28.6 million, or 12.0% of net sales, during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decline in operating profit and operating margin were primarily due to the operational results detailed above.
Horizon Americas' Adjusted EBITDA decreased $30.1 million to $1.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $31.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Adjusted EBITDA declined due to operational results detailed above.

Net sales decreased $33.9 million, or 18.5%, to $149.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $183.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily attributable to lower sales volumes in the aftermarket and OE sales channels. The decrease also includes $14.3 million of unfavorable currency translation. The decrease was partially offset by $14.6 million of customer pricing recoveries, primarily in the aftermarket and OE sales channels, to recover increased material and input costs.
Horizon Europe-Africa's gross profit decreased $12.7 million, or 53.9%, to $10.8 million, or 7.3% of net sales, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $23.5 million, or 12.8% of net sales, during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit and gross profit margin reflects the changes in net sales detailed above, coupled with the unfavorable impact of increased material, supply chain and other manufacturing input costs, and is net of customer pricing recoveries. Gross profit and gross profit margin were also negatively impacted in the first half of 2022 by the inability to flex costs efficiently resulting from OEM customer production schedule changes. The input cost increases were not able to be fully passed through to our customers during the first half of 2022, given there is generally a delay in such recoveries due to market pressures and restrictions within certain customer contracts.
SG&A decreased $4.2 million to $16.6 million, or 11.1% of net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $20.8 million, or 11.4% of net sales, during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in SG&A expenses is primarily attributable to the following:
-$1.6 million of favorable currency translation; and
-$0.8 million of lower outside professional fees and other administrative costs.
Horizon Europe-Africa's operating profit decreased $8.5 million to an operating loss of $5.8 million, or (3.9)% of net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to an operating profit of $2.7 million, or 1.5% of net sales, during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decline in operating profit and operating margin were primarily due to the operational results detailed above.
Horizon Europe-Africa's Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $10.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $10.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Adjusted EBITDA declined due to the operational results detailed above.

Corporate Expenses
Corporate expenses included in operating loss increased $2.0 million to $15.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $13.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the following:
-$1.3 million higher outside professional fees and other administrative costs; and
-$0.7 million higher costs incurred related to professional service fees and other costs associated with new debt issuance, amendments, and modifications and related structure change.
Corporate Adjusted EBITDA was $(11.6) million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $(11.1) million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The change in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to the higher outside professional fees and other administrative costs discussed above and was partially offset by lower personnel and other variable compensation costs.
33

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital and working capital requirements are funded through a combination of cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and various borrowings and factoring arrangements described below, including our asset-based Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $10.4 millionand $8.2 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents held at foreign subsidiaries. There may be country specific regulations, which may restrict or result in increased costs in the repatriation of these funds.
In March 2020, the Company, as guarantor, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with Eclipse Business Capital LLC, formerly known as Encina Business Credit, LLC, as agent for the lenders party thereto, and Horizon Global Americas Inc. and Cequent Towing Products of Canada Ltd., as borrowers (the "ABL Borrowers"). The Loan Agreement provides for an asset-based revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") in the maximum aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million subject to customary borrowing base limitations contained therein, and may be increased at the ABL Borrowers' request in increments of $5.0 million, up to a maximum of five times over the life of the Revolving Credit Facility, for a total increase of up to $25.0 million. The Loan Agreement has been amended on several occasions that, among other things, increased the maximum credit available under the Revolving Credit Facility to $95.0 million. As of June 30, 2022, we had availability of $20.1 million under the Revolving Credit Facility and $16.0 millionof cash and cash equivalents in the United States.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, total cash and availability was $46.5 million and $39.2 million, respectively. We define cash and availability as cash and cash equivalents and amounts of cash accessible but undrawn from credit facilities.
We believe the combination of these sources, as well as the changes to our capital structure following our recent refinancing activities described below, provides us with sources of both short-term and long-term liquidity that will enable the Company to meet material cash obligations as well as our working capital, capital expenditures and other funding requirements for at least the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future thereafter. Our ability to fund our working capital needs, debt payments and other obligations, including borrowing base limitations under our Revolving Credit Facility, depends on our future operating performance and cash flow and many factors outside of our control, including the costs of raw materials, the state of the automotive accessories market and other macroeconomic conditions.
Discussion of Going Concern
The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company has a history of recurring net operating losses and cash outflows from operations. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants in agreements governing its debt. However, based on the Company's projected financial performance for the twelve-month period subsequent to the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company projects that it will not be in compliance with a financial covenant under the Company's Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement, as defined below,as of March 31, 2023, which would result in an event of default. Such a default would allow the lender under the Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement to accelerate the maturity of the debt, which carries a balance of $225.0 million as of June 30, 2022, making it due and payable at that time. This would, in turn, result in cross-default of the Company's Revolving Credit Facility, which carries a balance of $73.9 million as of June 30, 2022. The Company does not have sufficient cash on hand or available liquidity that can be utilized to repay these outstanding amounts in the event of default.
In response to the potential covenant breach, the Company is in discussions with its lender to amend the terms of its financial covenant under the Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement. The Company has a history of successfully amending and extending credit agreements with its current lenders and believes it is probable such amendment will be completed. We believe that these actions will allow the Company to continue as a going concern and remain in compliance with our financial covenants for the twelve months from the issuance of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Cash Flows - Operating Activities
Net cash used for operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $24.4 million and $27.6 million, respectively.
34

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we used $27.1 million in cash flows, based on the reported net loss of $49.4 million and after considering the effects of non-cash items related to depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, amortization of original issuance discount and debt issuance costs, deferred income taxes, non-cash compensation expense, paid-in-kind interest, and other, net. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we generated $18.8 million in cash flows, based on the reported net loss of $14.2 million and after considering the effects of similar non-cash items previously described, in addition to the loss on debt extinguishment of the Company's former term loan during the first quarter of 2021.
Changes in operating assets and liabilities sourced $2.7 million and used $46.5 million of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Changes in accounts receivable resulted in a net use of cash of $23.1 million and $30.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in accounts receivable was lower in the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 driven primarily by lower net sales activity in the current year.
Changes in inventories resulted in a use of cash of $6.3 million and $31.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in inventories during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to a continuation of macroeconomic factors, including elevated costs of raw materials, and contributed to higher inventory costs, including inventory in-transit. The increase is also attributable to reduced volumes compared to our seasonal inventory build in order to meet anticipated demand of a traditional selling season. The increase in inventories during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to macroeconomic factors resulting in increased costs of raw materials, constraints on shipping container availability and port congestion leading to higher inventory costs as well as seasonal inventory build in order to meet the demand of our traditional selling season.
Changes in prepaid expenses and other assets resulted in a netuse of cash of $2.5 million and $0.4 millionduring the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in prepaid expenses and other assets during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was primarily due to the mix of invoicing from vendors and subsequent payments.
Changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities resulted in asource of cash of $34.6 million and $16.0 millionduring the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The higher source of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 is primarily due to the timing of payments made to suppliers, mix of vendors and related terms.
Cash Flows - Investing Activities
Net cash used for investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $8.9 millionand $9.9 million, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, capital expenditures were $8.9 millionand $9.9 million, respectively, related to growth, capacity and productivity-related projects within Horizon Americas and Horizon Europe-Africa. The net decrease in capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2022 is attributable to lower spending in Horizon Americas, partially offset by increased capital expenditures in Horizon Europe-Africa to support growth and capacity expenditures associated with our planned low-cost country expansion.
Cash Flows - Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $135.7 millionand $17.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, net proceeds from the Revolving Credit Facility, net of issuance costs, were $15.8 millionand $20.0 million, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, proceeds from borrowings on our term loan, net of issuance costs, and related issuance of common stock warrants were$118.2 million and $3.0 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, proceeds from our term loan, net of issuance costs, and related issuance of common stock warrants were $75.3 million and $16.3 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, repayments of borrowings on our former term loan, including transaction fees, were $94.9 million.
Factoring Arrangements
We have factoring arrangements with financial institutions to sell certain accounts receivable. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, total receivables sold under certain non-recourse factoring arrangements were $127.5 million and $158.2 million, respectively. We utilize factoring arrangements as part of our working capital needs. The costs of participating in these arrangements are immaterial to our results.

Our Debt and Other Commitments
Revolving Credit Facility
We and certain of our subsidiaries are party to the asset-based Revolving Credit Facility governed by the Loan Agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility provides $95.0 million of funding on a revolving basis, subject to borrowing base availability, and matures on March 13, 2024. As of June 30, 2022, there was $73.9 million outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility.
Effective March 31, 2022, we entered into an amendment to the Loan Agreement that temporarily increased our ability to borrow against receivables and in-transit inventory as well as inventory located in the our Mexico facilities, which was initially effective through June 30, 2022. On June 30, 2022, the Loan Agreement was amended to extend the effective date of the temporary borrowing capacity through September 30, 2022. The March 31, 2022 amendment also replaced the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") based interest rate with the Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). As a result of the amendment, interest on loans under the Loan Agreement is payable in cash at the interest rate of SOFR plus 4.00% per annum, subject to a 1.00% SOFR floor. Beginning September 30, 2022, the interest rate on all loans under the Loan Agreement will be SOFR plus 3.50% to 4.00% per annum, subject to a 1.00% SOFR floor andcertain conditions defined in the Loan Agreement.
Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement
We and certain of our subsidiaries, have been or are parties to other long-term credit agreements, including a credit agreement (the "Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement") that we entered into in February 2021, with Atlantic Park Strategic Capital Fund, L.P. ("Atlantic Park"), as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto. The Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement provides for an initial term loan facility (the "2021 Senior Term Loan") in the aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million, all of which was borrowed by the Company and was used to repay our former term loan. The Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement also provided for a delayed draw term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of up to $125.0 million, which may be drawn by the Company in up to three separate borrowings through June 30, 2022. All outstanding borrowings under the Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement mature on February 2, 2027.
In February 2022, we entered into an amendment to our Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement with Atlantic Park. The amendment provided for a $35.0 million delayed draw facility, which we borrowed in full (the "February 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan") under our existing delayed draw term loan facility and allowed the net proceeds to be used for working capital purposes and to fund low-cost country expansion in our Horizon Europe-Africa operating segment.
In connection with the February 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan, we issued warrants ("Senior Term Loan Amendment Warrants") to Atlantic Park to purchase up to 975,000 shares of our common stock, with an exercise price of $9.00 per share. The Senior Term Loan Amendment Warrants are exercisable at any time prior to February 10, 2027. On May 24, 2022, shareholders approved the proposal to issue common shares upon the exercise of the issued warrants.
On June 27, 2022, we borrowed the remaining $90.0 million under our existing delayed draw term loan facility (the "June 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan"). The proceeds of the June 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan were used by the Company to repay $85.0 million of principal and $1.7 million of accrued interest on our Convertible Notes, as defined below, which matured on July 1, 2022. Following the full draw on the delayed draw term loans as of June 30, 2022, the February 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan, the June 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan and the 2021 Senior Term Loan are collectively referred to as the Senior Term Loan. As of June 30, 2022, there was $225.0 million outstanding on the Senior Term Loan bearing cash interest at the interest rate of LIBOR plus 7.50% per annum, subject to a 1.00% LIBOR floor.
Convertible Notes
In February 2017, we completed a public offering of 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes (the "Convertible Notes") in an aggregate principal amount of $125.0 million. During the second quarter of 2022, we issued Series B Preferred Stock, as defined below, in exchange for $40.0 million of the outstanding principal balance of the Convertible Notes. On July 1, 2022, the proceeds of the June 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan were used to repay $85.0 million of principal and $1.7 million of accrued interest. As of June 30, 2022, the combined $86.7 million was held as restricted cash.

Series B Preferred Stock
In February 2022, the Company executed a commitment letter with Corre Partners Management, LLC, acting on behalf of certain investment funds for which it acts as investment manager (collectively, the "Corre Funds"), to issue, solely at the Company's option, up to $40.0 million of a new series of our preferred stock, the proceeds of which would be used by the Company to repay a portion of our Convertible Notes and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
On June 27, 2022, we entered into a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with the Corre Funds pursuant to which the Corre Funds purchased 40,000 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series B Preferred Stock"), in exchange for $40.0 million aggregate principal amount of our Convertible Notes, which were cancelled by us. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we also issued the Corre Funds an additional 1,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock in satisfaction of our obligation to pay Corre Funds a commitment fee pursuant to the terms of the commitment letter described above.
The Series B Preferred Stock accrue dividends in kind at a rate of 11.0% per annum, subject to increase to a maximum of 16.0% per annum upon the occurrence of certain events. The Series B Preferred Stock is subject to voluntary redemption by the Company at our option and subject to mandatory redemption upon the first to occur of a change in control and the one-year anniversary of the maturity of the Senior Term Loan, which is February 2, 2028. The Series B Preferred Stock, after the occurrence of certain events, will be convertible into shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at Corre's option and subject to shareholder approval.
Other Matters
We are subject to variable interest rates on our Senior Term Loan Credit Agreement and Revolving Credit Facility.At June 30, 2022, 1-Month LIBOR and 3-Month LIBOR approximated 1.79% and 2.29%, respectively. At June 30, 2022, the Adjusted Term SOFR approximated 1.09%.
In addition to our long-term debt, we have other cash commitments related to leases. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 rent expense on our operating leases was $7.2 million and $7.6 million, respectively. We expect to continue to utilize leasing as a financing strategy in the future to support our business and operational needs as well as reduce debt levels.
Refer to Note 7, Long-term Debt, Note 8, Redeemable Preferred Stock,and Note 9, Leases, in Part I, Item 1, "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,"included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Consolidated EBITDA
Consolidated EBITDA (defined as "Consolidated EBITDA" in our Senior Term Loan Agreement) is a comparable measure to how the Company assesses performance. As discussed further in the Segment Information and Supplemental Analysis section above, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures to assess performance and measure our covenant compliance in accordance with the Senior Term Loan Agreement, which includes Adjusted EBITDA at the operating segment level. For the measurement of our Senior Term Loan Agreement financial covenants, the definition of Consolidated EBITDA limits the amount of non-recurring expenses or costs including restructuring, moving and severance that can be excluded to $10 million in any cumulative four fiscal quarter period. Similarly, the definition limits the amount of fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with any proposed asset sale, offering of equity interests or any indebtedness, lender agent fees, and fees in connection with the maintenance and/or forgiveness of the loan from PNC Bank, National Association for $8.7 million, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the "PPP Loan") under Division A, Title I of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, in the aggregate, that can be excluded to $8 million in any cumulative four fiscal quarter period.

Outlook
Our business remains susceptible to macroeconomic conditions that may adversely affect our future results, including the current inflationary environment and increased energy prices, volatile interest rates, ongoing global semiconductor shortage, as well as transportation and other logistic constraints. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has also placed added constraints on the global automotive supply chain that may adversely impact our business. These factors have contributed to a delay in receiving certain critical components required to fulfill orders by the Company or some of our OE customers, which has resulted in retiming some customer orders to future periods. We also continue to experience elevated costs for certain raw materials, including steel, and while we endeavor to recover incremental input costs through pricing recovery initiatives, the recoveries generally occur over time and are not guaranteed. We also continue to monitor the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and potential impacts to our operations, employees, customers and other stakeholders, as well as prioritizing the health and safety of our employees. We continue to monitor these macroeconomic factors and implement mitigating actions where possible, and remain committed to fulfilling customer orders.
We also remain focused on maintaining liquidity to fund our operations, while considering future maturities in our capital structure, which have been addressed and will continue to be addressed as the Company continues to execute our business plan and operational improvement initiatives which are continuously ongoing. These initiatives were put in place to streamline and simplify our operations and provide a roadmap to achieve our strategic priorities of margin expansion, liquidity management and organic business growth.
We believe the unique strategic footprint we enjoy in our market space will benefit the Company as our OE customers continue to demonstrate a preference for stronger relationships with few suppliers. We believe our brand recognition, portfolio of product offerings, and existing customer relationships present a long-term opportunity for the Company and provide leverage to see balanced growth in OE, aftermarket and retail businesses. That position and brand recognition allows the Company flexibility to bring our products to market in various channels that we believe provide the Company the ability to leverage our current operational footprint to meet customer demand.
Impact of New Accounting Standards
See Note 2, New Accounting Pronouncements, included in Part I, Item 1, "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Certain of our accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates that affect both the amounts and timing of the recording of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. These judgments are based on our historical experience, our evaluation of business and macroeconomic trends, and information from other outside sources, as appropriate.
There were no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data," in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
39

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed only to provide reasonable assurance that they will meet their objectives. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that they would meet their objectives.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business, but we do not believe that any such claim or litigation is likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. For a description of risks related to various legal proceedings and claims, see the section entitled "Risk Factors," in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. For additional information regarding legal proceedings, refer to Note 11, Contingencies,in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
A discussion of our risk factors, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, can be found in the section entitled "Risk Factors," in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, which risk factors are supplemented with the disclosure below.
We are currently out of compliance with the New York Stock Exchange's ("NYSE") minimum market capitalization requirement and are at risk of the NYSE delisting our common stock, which would have an adverse impact on the trading volume, liquidity and market price of our common stock.
On July 25, 2022, we were notified by the NYSE that we were not in compliance with the continued listing standard set forth in Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because our average market capitalization was less than $50 million over a consecutive 30 trading-day period and our stockholders' equity was less than $50 million. We are taking actions to meet the continued listing standards of the NYSE to cure the market capitalization condition, which we expect will ultimately lead to a recovery of our common stock price and market capitalization. Our common stock could also be delisted if our average market capitalization over a consecutive 30 day-trading period is less than $15 million, in which case we would not have an opportunity to cure the deficiency, our common stock would be suspended from trading on the NYSE immediately, and the NYSE would begin the process to delist our common stock, subject to our right to appeal under NYSE rules. We cannot assure you that any appeal we undertake in these or other circumstances will be successful. While we are working to cure this potential deficiency and remain in compliance with this continued listing standard, there can be no assurance that we will be able to cure this potential deficiency or if we will cease to comply with another continued listing standard of the NYSE.
A delisting of our common stock from the NYSE could negatively impact us as it would likely reduce the liquidity and market price of our common stock; reduce the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our common stock; and negatively impact our ability to access equity markets and obtain financing.
