NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Harley-Davidson, Inc. and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned (the Company), including the accounts of the groups of companies referred to as Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) and Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS). In addition, certain variable interest entities (VIEs) related to secured financing are consolidated as the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and material intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
The Company operates in two reportable segments: Motorcycles and Related Products (Motorcycles) and Financial Services.
In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Consolidated balance sheets as of June 27, 2021 and June 28, 2020, the Consolidated statements of operations for the three and six month periods then ended, the Consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six month periods then ended, the Consolidated statements of cash flows for the six month periods then ended, and the Consolidated statements of shareholders' equity for the three and six month periods then ended.
Certain information and disclosures normally included in complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial reporting. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. During the first quarter of 2020, the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) spread throughout the world, and it was recognized as a pandemic in March 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has restricted the level of economic activity in the U.S. and around the world and the full extent of its impact is not yet known. Certain estimates used in the preparation of financial results for the period ending June 27, 2021 could be impacted in future periods as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
2. New Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Recently Adopted
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU No. 2019-12). The new guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The new guidance also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

8. Finance Receivables
The Company provides retail financial services to customers of its independent dealers in the U.S. and Canada. The origination of retail loans is a separate and distinct transaction between the Company and the retail customer, unrelated to the Company’s sale of product to its dealers. Retail finance receivables consist of secured promissory notes and secured installment sales contracts and are primarily related to independent dealer sales of motorcycles to retail customers. The Company holds either titles or liens on titles to vehicles financed by promissory notes and installment sales contracts.
The Company offers wholesale financing to its independent dealers in the U.S. and Canada. Wholesale finance receivables are related primarily to the Company's sale of motorcycles and related parts and accessories to dealers. Wholesale loans to dealers are generally secured by financed inventory or property.

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13), which requires an entity to recognize expected lifetime losses on finance receivables upon origination. Under ASU 2016-13, the Company’s finance receivables are reported at amortized cost, net of the allowance for credit losses. Amortized cost includes the principal outstanding, accrued interest, and deferred loan fees and costs. Based on differences in the nature of the finance receivables and the underlying methodology for calculating the allowance for loan losses, the Company segments its finance receivables into the retail and wholesale portfolios. The Company further disaggregates each portfolio by credit quality indicators. As the credit risk varies between the retail and wholesale portfolios, the Company utilizes different credit quality indicators for each portfolio.
The retail portfolio primarily consists of a large number of small balance, homogeneous finance receivables. The Company performs a collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. The Company utilizes a vintage-based loss forecast methodology that includes decompositions for probability of default, exposure at default, attrition rate, and recovery balance rate. Reasonable and supportable economic forecasts for a two-year period are incorporated into the methodology to reflect the estimated impact of changes in future economic conditions, such as unemployment rates, household obligations or other relevant factors, over the two-year reasonable and supportable period. For periods beyond the Company’s reasonable and supportable forecasts, the Company reverts to its average historical loss experience using a mean-reversion process over a three-year period. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or term as well as other relevant factors.
The wholesale portfolio is primarily composed of large balance, non-homogeneous loans. The Company’s evaluation for the wholesale allowance for credit losses is first based on a loan-by-loan review to determine whether the loans share similar risk characteristics. The Company individually evaluates loans that do not share risk characteristics. Loans identified as those for which foreclosure is probable are classified as Non-Performing, and a specific allowance for credit losses is established when appropriate. The specific allowance is determined based on the amortized cost of the related finance receivable and the estimated fair value of the collateral, less selling costs and the cash that the Company expects to receive. Finance receivables in the wholesale portfolio not individually assessed are aggregated, based on similar risk characteristics, according to the Company’s internal risk rating system and measured collectively. The related allowance for credit losses is based on factors such as the specific borrower’s financial performance and ability to repay, the Company’s past loan loss experience, reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, and the value of the underlying collateral and expected recoveries.
The Company considers various economic forecast scenarios as part of estimating the allowance for expected credit losses and applies a probability-weighting to those economic forecast scenarios. Changes in the Company’s outlook on economic conditions impacted the retail and wholesale estimates for expected credit losses at June 27, 2021. During the second quarter of 2021, the U.S. economy and the Company’s outlook on economic conditions improved from the first quarter of 2021; however, the pace of economic recovery remains uncertain as demonstrated by unemployment levels that remain higher than those experienced prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and continuing COVID-19 pandemic-related challenges across the U.S., among other factors. As such, at the end of the second quarter of 2021, the Company’s outlook on economic conditions included economic improvement with an emphasis on a slower path to economic recovery in its economic scenario weighting.
Additionally, the historical experience incorporated into the portfolio-specific models does not fully reflect the Company's comprehensive expectations regarding the future. As such, the Company incorporated qualitative factors to establish an appropriate allowance balance. These factors include motorcycle recovery value considerations, delinquency adjustments, specific problem loan trends, and others, as appropriate.
Due to the use of projections and assumptions in estimating the losses, the amount of losses actually incurred by the Company in either portfolio could differ from the amounts estimated. Further, the Company’s allowance for credit losses incorporates known conditions at the balance sheet date and the Company's management’s expectations surrounding the economic forecasts. The Company’s expectations surrounding its economic forecasts may change in future periods as additional information becomes available.

(a)On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and increased the allowance for loan loss through Retained earnings, net of income taxes, to establish an allowance that represents expected lifetime credit losses on the finance receivable portfolios at date of adoption.
The Company manages retail credit risk through its credit approval process and ongoing collection efforts. The Company uses FICO scores, a standard credit rating measurement, to differentiate the expected default rates of retail credit applicants, enabling the Company to better evaluate credit applicants for approval and to tailor pricing according to this assessment. For the Company’s U.S. and Canadian retail finance receivables, the Company determines the credit quality indicator for each loan at origination and does not update the credit quality indicator subsequent to the loan origination date.
As loan performance by credit quality indicator differs between the U.S. and Canadian retail loans, the Company’s credit quality indicators vary for the two portfolios. For U.S. retail finance receivables, those with a FICO score of 740 or above at origination are generally considered super prime, loans with a FICO score between 640 and 740 are generally categorized as prime, and loans with FICO score below 640 are generally considered sub-prime. For Canadian retail finance receivables, those with a FICO score of 700 or above at origination are generally considered super prime, loans with a FICO score between 620 and 700 are generally categorized as prime, and loans with FICO score below 620 are generally considered sub-prime.

The Company's credit risk on the wholesale portfolio is different from that of the retail portfolio. Whereas the retail portfolio represents a relatively homogeneous pool of retail finance receivables that exhibit more consistent loss patterns, the wholesale portfolio exposures are less consistent. The Company utilizes an internal credit risk rating system to manage credit risk exposure consistently across wholesale borrowers and individually evaluates credit risk factors for each borrower. The Company uses the following internal credit quality indicators, based on an internal risk rating system, listed from highest level of risk to lowest level of risk for the wholesale portfolio: Doubtful, Substandard, Special Mention, Medium Risk and Low Risk. Based upon the Company’s review, the dealers classified in the Doubtful category are the dealers with the greatest likelihood of being charged-off, while the dealers classified as Low Risk are least likely to be charged-off. Additionally, the Company classifies dealers identified as those in which foreclosure is probable as Non-Performing. The internal rating system considers factors such as the specific borrower's ability to repay and the estimated value of any collateral. Dealer risk rating classifications are reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis.

Retail finance receivables are contractually delinquent if the minimum payment is not received by the specified due date. Retail finance receivables at amortized cost, excluding accrued interest, are generally charged-off when the receivable is 120 days or more delinquent, the related asset is repossessed, or the receivable is otherwise deemed uncollectible. The Company reverses accrued interest related to charged-off accounts against interest income when the account is charged-off. The Company reversed $3.3 million and $5.0 million of accrued interest against interest income during the three months ended June 27, 2021 and June 28, 2020, respectively, and $8.5 million and $11.4 million during the six months ended June 27, 2021 and June 28, 2020, respectively. All retail finance receivables accrue interest until either collected or charged-off. Due to the timely write-off of accrued interest, the Company made the election provided under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC Topic 326) to exclude accrued interest from its allowance for credit losses. Accordingly, as of June 27, 2021, December 31, 2020 and June 28, 2020, all retail finance receivables were accounted for as interest-earning receivables.
Wholesale finance receivables are delinquent if the minimum payment is not received by the contractual due date. Wholesale finance receivables are written down once the Company determines that the specific borrower does not have the ability to repay the loan in full. Interest continues to accrue on past due finance receivables until the date the Company determines that foreclosure is probable, and the finance receivable is placed on non-accrual status. The Company will resume accruing interest on these accounts when payments are current according to the terms of the loans and future payments are reasonably assured. While on non-accrual status, all cash received is applied to principal or interest as appropriate. Once an account is charged-off, the Company will reverse the associated accrued interest against interest income. As the Company

Table of Contents
follows a non-accrual policy for interest, the allowance for credit losses excludes accrued interest for the wholesale portfolio. There were no charged-off accounts during the three and six months ended June 27, 2021 and June 28, 2020. As such, the Company did not reverse any accrued interest in those periods. There were no dealers on non-accrual status at June 27, 2021 and December 31, 2020. At June 28, 2020, $4.3 million of wholesale finance receivables outstanding were on non-accrual status, and of this, $3.0 million were over 90 days or more past due.

Generally, it is the Company’s policy not to change the terms and conditions of finance receivables. However, to minimize economic loss, the Company may modify certain finance receivables in troubled debt restructurings. Total finance receivables in troubled debt restructurings were not significant as of June 27, 2021, December 31, 2020 and June 28, 2020. Additionally, in certain situations, the Company may offer short-term adjustments to customer payment due dates without affecting the associated interest rate or loan term. Starting in the second quarter of 2020, the Company granted an increased amount of short-term payment due date extensions on eligible retail loans to help retail customers get through financial difficulties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. During the first half of 2021, the volume of extensions declined from the levels experienced during 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, but extensions did not return to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels until the end of the second quarter of 2021. The Company continues to grant standard payment extensions to customers in accordance with its policies.
9. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to risks from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. To reduce its exposure to such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All derivative transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.

Table of Contents
The Company sells products in foreign currencies and utilizes foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to the Euro, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Brazilian real, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Chinese yuan, Thai baht, Indian rupee, Singapore dollar, and Pound sterling. The Company's foreign currency exchange contracts generally have maturities of less than one year.
The Company utilizes commodity contracts to mitigate the effects of commodity price fluctuations related to metals and fuel consumed in the Company’s motorcycle operations. The Company's commodity contracts generally have maturities of less than one year.
The Company periodically utilizes treasury rate lock contracts to fix the interest rate on a portion of the principal related to an anticipated issuance of long-term debt, interest rate swaps to reduce the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on medium-term notes with floating interest rates, and cross-currency swaps to mitigate the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on foreign currency-denominated debt. The Company also utilizes interest rate caps to facilitate certain asset-backed securitization transactions.
All derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated balance sheets at fair value. In accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC Topic 815), the accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative financial instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship.
Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges are initially recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) (OCI) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects income. The Company assesses, both at the inception of each hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items. No component of a designated hedging derivative financial instrument’s gain or loss is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Derivative financial instruments not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage the Company’s exposure to foreign currency, commodity risks, and interest rate risks. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments not designated as hedging instruments are recorded directly in income.

The Company is exposed to credit loss risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties to its derivative financial instruments. Although no assurances can be given, the Company does not expect any of the counterparties to its derivative financial instruments to fail to meet their obligations. To manage credit loss risk, the Company evaluates counterparties based on credit ratings and, on a quarterly basis, evaluates each hedge’s net position relative to the counterparty’s ability to cover their position.

10. Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception. Right-of-use (ROU) assets related to the Company's leases are recorded in Lease assets and lease liabilities are recorded in Accrued liabilities and Lease liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset over the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. The ROU asset also includes prepaid lease payments and initial direct costs and is reduced for lease incentives paid by the lessor. The discount rate used to determine the present value is generally the Company's incremental borrowing rate because the implicit rate in the lease is not readily determinable. The lease term used to calculate the ROU asset and lease liabilities includes periods covered by options to extend or terminate when the Company is reasonably certain the lease term will include these optional periods.
In accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (ASC Topic 842), the Company elected the short-term lease practical expedient that allows entities to recognize lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company has also elected the practical expedient under ASC Topic 842 allowing entities to not separate non-lease components from lease components, but instead account for such components as a single lease component for all leases except leases involving assets operated by a third-party.
The Company has operating lease arrangements for sales and administrative offices, manufacturing and distribution facilities, product testing facilities, equipment and vehicles. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from 1 to 11 years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for periods generally not greater than 5 years and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 year. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased asset. The Company's leases do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Operating lease expense for the three months ended June 27, 2021 and June 28, 2020 was $6.2 million and $6.5 million, respectively, and $13.8 million and $13.8 million for the six months ended June 27, 2021 and June 28, 2020, respectively. This includes variable lease costs related to leases involving assets operated by a third party of approximately $1.3 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 27, 2021 and June 28, 2020, respectively, and $3.7 million and $3.2 million for the six months ended June 27, 2021 and June 28, 2020, respectively. Other variable and short-term lease costs were not material.

12. Asset-Backed Financing
The Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and through asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. In the Company's asset-backed financing programs, the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to special purpose entities (SPEs), which are considered VIEs under U.S. GAAP. Each SPE then converts those assets into cash, through the issuance of debt. The Company retains servicing rights for all of the retail motorcycle finance receivables transferred to SPEs as part of an asset-backed financing. The accounting treatment for asset-backed financings depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE.
In transactions where the Company has power over the significant activities of the VIE and has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that are potentially significant to the VIE, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and consolidates the VIE within its consolidated financial statements. On a consolidated basis, the asset-backed financing is treated as a secured borrowing in this type of transaction and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing.
In transactions where the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company must determine whether it can achieve a sale for accounting purposes under ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing (ASC Topic 860). To achieve a sale for accounting purposes, the assets being transferred must be legally isolated, not be constrained by restrictions from further transfer, and be deemed to be beyond the Company’s control. If the Company does not meet all of these criteria for sale accounting, then the transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing.
If the Company meets all three of the sale criteria above, the transaction is recorded as a sale for accounting purposes and is referred to as an off-balance sheet asset-backed financing. Upon sale, the retail motorcycle finance receivables are removed from the Company’s Consolidated balance sheets and a gain or loss is recognized for the difference between the cash proceeds received, the assets derecognized, and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction. The gain or loss on sale is included in Financial Services revenue on the Consolidated statements of operations.

The Company is not required, and does not currently intend, to provide any additional financial support to the on- or off-balance sheet VIEs associated with these transactions. Investors and creditors in these transactions only have recourse to the assets held by the VIEs.

On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Securitization VIEs – The Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs which in turn issue secured notes to investors, with various maturities and interest rates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. Each on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPE is a separate legal entity, and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitizations are only available for payment of the secured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transactions and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors until the associated secured debt and other obligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the SPEs are used only to support the securitizations. There are no amortization schedules for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes currently have various contractual maturities ranging from 2023 to 2028.

Table of Contents
The Company is the primary beneficiary of its on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIEs because it retains servicing rights and a residual interest in the VIEs in the form of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a residual interest holder, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits which could potentially be significant to the VIE.

On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed U.S. Commercial Paper Conduit Facilities VIE – Until November 25, 2020, the Company had two separate agreements with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits, a $300.0 million revolving facility agreement and a $600.0 million revolving facility agreement (together, the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities). On November 25, 2020, the Company amended each revolving facility agreement by consolidating the two agreements into one $900.0 million revolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. Under the revolving facility agreement, the Company may transfer U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE, which in turn may issue debt to those third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. In addition to the $900.0 million aggregate commitment, the agreement allows for additional borrowings, at the lender’s discretion, of up to $300.0 million. Availability under the $900.0 million revolving facility (the U.S. Conduit Facility) is based on, among other things, the amount of eligible U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables held by the SPE as collateral.
Under the U.S. Conduit Facility, the assets of the SPE are restricted as collateral for the payment of the debt or other obligations arising in the transaction and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing commercial paper rates if funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper. If not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper, the terms of the interest are based on LIBOR. In each of these cases, a program fee is assessed based on the outstanding principal. The U.S. Conduit Facility also provides for an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment. When calculating the unused fee, the aggregate commitment does not include any unused portion of the $300.0 million additional borrowings allowed. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the U.S. Conduit Facility, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables held by the SPE is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, as of June 27, 2021, the U.S. Conduit Facility has an expiration date of November 19, 2021.
The Company is the primary beneficiary of its U.S. Conduit Facility VIE because it retains servicing rights and a residual interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a residual interest holder, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits which could potentially be significant to the VIE.
There were no finance receivable transfers under the U.S. Conduit Facility during the first half of 2021 or the second quarter of 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company transferred $195.3 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $163.6 million of debt under the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities.
On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Canadian Commercial Paper Conduit Facility – In June 2021, the Company renewed and amended its facility agreement (Canadian Conduit) with a Canadian bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduit. Under the agreement, the Canadian Conduit is contractually committed, at the Company's option, to purchase eligible Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables for proceeds up to C$125.0 million. Prior to the renewal and amendment, the Canadian Conduit was contractually committed, at the Company's option, to purchase eligible Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables for proceeds up to C$220.0 million. The transferred assets are restricted as collateral for the payment of the associated debt. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing market interest rates plus a specified margin. The Canadian Conduit also provides for a program fee and an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment of C$125.0 million. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding

principal. Upon expiration of the Canadian Conduit, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement between the Company and the lenders, as of June 27, 2021, the Canadian Conduit has an expiration date of June 27, 2022.
The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE; therefore, the Company does not consolidate the VIE. However, the Company treats the conduit facility as a secured borrowing as it maintains effective control over the assets transferred to the VIE and, therefore, does not meet the requirements for sale accounting.
As the Company participates in and does not consolidate the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE, the maximum exposure to loss associated with this VIE, which would only be incurred in the unlikely event that all the finance receivables and underlying collateral have no residual value, was $15.5 million at June 27, 2021. The maximum exposure is not an indication of the Company's expected loss exposure.
There were no finance receivable transfers under the Canadian Conduit Facility during the first half of 2021 or the second quarter of 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company transferred $77.9 million of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit for proceeds of $61.6 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Securitization VIE – There were no off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions during the six months ended June 27, 2021 or June 28, 2020. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company sold retail motorcycle finance receivables into a securitization VIE that was not consolidated. In April 2020, the Company repurchased the finance receivables associated with this off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE for $27.4 million.
Similar to an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization, the Company transferred U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which in turn issued secured notes to investors, with various maturities and interest rates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. The off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPE was a separate legal entity, and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitization were only available for payment of the secured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transaction and were not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. In an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. As part of this off-balance sheet securitization, the Company did not retain any financial interest in the VIE beyond servicing rights and ordinary representations and warranties and related covenants.
The Company was not the primary beneficiary of the off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE because it only retained servicing rights and did not have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE which could potentially be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, this transaction met the accounting sale requirements under ASC Topic 860 and was recorded as a sale for accounting purposes.
Servicing Activities The Company services all retail motorcycle finance receivables that it originates. When the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs through asset-backed financings, the Company retains the right to service the finance receivables and receives servicing fees based on the securitized finance receivables balance and certain ancillary fees. In on-balance sheet asset-backed financings, servicing fees are eliminated in consolidation and therefore are not recorded on a consolidated basis. In off-balance sheet asset-backed financings, servicing fees and ancillary fees are recorded in Financial Services revenue on the Consolidated statements of operations. The fees the Company is paid for servicing represent adequate compensation, and consequently, the Company does not recognize a servicing asset or liability. The Company repurchased the finance receivables associated with the off-balance sheet securitization VIE in April 2020. As such, the Company did not recognize any servicing fee income in 2021. The Company recognized servicing fee income of $0.1 million during the six months ended June 28, 2020.
13. Fair Value
The Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy.
Level 1 inputs include quoted prices for identical instruments and are the most observable.
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and observable inputs such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and yield curves. The Company uses the market approach to derive the fair value for its Level 2 fair value measurements. Foreign currency contracts, commodity contracts, cross-currency swaps and treasury rate lock contracts are valued using quoted forward rates and prices; interest rate swaps and caps are valued using quoted interest rates and yield curves; investments in marketable securities and cash equivalents are valued using quoted prices.

Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market and include the Company's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Finance Receivables, net – The carrying value of retail and wholesale finance receivables is amortized cost less an allowance for credit losses. The fair value of retail finance receivables is generally calculated by discounting future cash flows using an estimated discount rate that reflects current credit, interest rate and prepayment risks associated with similar types of instruments. Fair value is determined based on Level 3 inputs. The amortized cost basis of wholesale finance receivables approximates fair value because they are generally either short-term or have interest rates that adjust with changes in market interest rates.
Deposits, net – The carrying value of deposits is amortized cost. The fair value of deposits is estimated based upon rates currently available for deposits with similar terms and maturities. Fair value is calculated using Level 3 inputs.
Debt – The carrying value of debt is generally amortized cost, net of discounts and debt issuance costs. The fair value of unsecured commercial paper and credit facility borrowings are calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value due to its short maturity. The fair value of debt provided under the U.S. Conduit Facilities and Canadian Conduit Facility is calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value since the interest rates charged under the facilities are tied directly to market rates and fluctuate as market rates change. The fair values of the medium-term notes and senior notes are estimated based upon rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of the fixed-rate debt related to on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions is estimated based on pricing currently available for transactions with similar terms and maturities (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of the floating-rate debt related to on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions is calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value since the interest rates charged are tied directly to market rates and fluctuate as market rates change.
14. Product Warranty and Recall Campaigns
The Company currently provides a standard two-year limited warranty on all new motorcycles sold worldwide, except in Japan, where the Company currently provides a standard three-year limited warranty. The Company also provides a five-year unlimited warranty on the battery for electric motorcycles. In addition, the Company provides a one-year warranty for parts and accessories. The warranty coverage for the retail customer generally begins when the product is sold to a retail customer. The Company accrues for future warranty claims at the time of sale using an estimated cost based primarily on historical Company claim information.

Additionally, the Company has from time to time initiated certain voluntary recall campaigns. The Company records estimated recall costs when the liability is both probable and estimable. This generally occurs when the Company's management approves and commits to a recall. The warranty and recall liability is included in Accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets.

16. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, product and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to these items, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss. Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomes available for each matter.
York Environmental Matter – The Company is involved with government agencies and the U.S. Navy related to a matter involving the cleanup of soil and groundwater contamination at its York, Pennsylvania facility. The York facility was formerly used by the U.S. Navy and AMF prior to the purchase of the York facility by the Company from AMF in 1981. The Company has an agreement with the U.S. Navy which calls for the U.S. Navy and the Company to contribute amounts into a trust equal to 53% and 47%, respectively, of costs associated with environmental investigation and remediation activities at the York facility (Response Costs). A site wide remedial investigation/feasibility study and a proposed final remedy for the York facility have been completed and approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The associated cleanup plan documents were approved in February 2020 and the remaining cleanup activities are expected to begin later in 2021 or 2022. The Company has an accrual for its share of the estimated future Response Costs recorded in Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets.
Product Liability Matters – The Company is involved in product liability suits related to the operation of its business. The Company accrues for claim exposures that are probable of occurrence and can be reasonably estimated. The Company also maintains insurance coverage for product liability exposures. The Company believes that its accruals and insurance coverage are adequate and that product liability suits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

20. Subsequent Event
In April 2021, the Company received notification from the Economic Ministry of Belgium that, following a request from the European Union (EU), the Company would be subject to the revocation of Binding Origin Information (BOI) rulings, effective April 19, 2021. Beginning in 2019, the Company has operated under BOIs which allowed it to supply its EU markets with certain motorcycles produced at its Thailand manufacturing facility at tariff rates of 6%. Following the revocation, all non-electric motorcycles that Harley-Davidson imports into the EU, regardless of origin, became subject to a total tariff rate of 31% on April 19, 2021. At that time it was expected to increase to 56% effective June 1, 2021. However, in May 2021, the EU made a decision to suspend the previously scheduled increase in the tariff rate to 56% while negotiations take place between the U.S. and the EU. If the U.S. and the EU do not reach a resolution, as it stands, the tariffs would increase again to 56% in December 2021. The additional EU tariff, whether at a rate of 31% or a rate of 56%, will significantly disadvantage the Company from competing effectively in the EU. Based on the EU's decision to suspend the previously scheduled increase from June 2021 to December 2021, the Company now estimates the impact of the additional EU tariffs in 2021, if unmitigated, to be approximately $80 million, including approximately $19 million recognized in the first six months of 2021.
In May 2021, the Company applied for temporary extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate for motorcycles produced in Thailand and ordered prior to April 19, 2021; however, that application was rejected on July 30, 2021. The Company estimates it could have avoided approximately $50 million of additional EU tariffs in 2021 if the application for extended reliance had been granted. The Company continues its appeals of the revocation of the BOIs and plans to appeal the denial of temporary extended reliance although there is no assurance that these appeals will be successful.

Overview
The Company's net income was $206.3 million, or $1.33 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2021, compared to a net loss of $92.2 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2020 when the Company's results were adversely impacted by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the second quarter of 2021, Motorcycles segment operating income was $185.8 million, up $306.8 million over the second quarter of 2020. The increase in operating income from the Motorcycles segment for the second quarter of 2021 was driven by a 99.8% increase in wholesale motorcycle shipments over the same quarter last year when wholesale shipments were impacted by the suspension of the Company's global manufacturing as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Operating income from the Financial Services segment in the second quarter of 2021 was $94.5 million, up $89.6 million compared to the year-ago quarter due primarily to a lower provision for credit losses and lower interest expense. The provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2020 was significantly higher reflecting a deterioration of the Company's economic outlook which incorporated the then expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Given the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on 2020 results, the Company has also assessed its performance relative to 2019. The Company's revenue in the second quarter of 2021 was down 6.2%, on approximately 12,000 fewer wholesale shipments, compared to the second quarter of 2019. The lower revenue and shipments reflect actions taken by the Company under The Rewire in 2020 to streamline its product offering and to exit certain international markets where volumes and profitability did not support continued investment. Despite lower revenue and shipments, operating income in the second quarter of 2021 was up 9.4% compared to the second quarter of 2019 with growth in both the Motorcycles and Financial Services segments. Motorcycles segment operating income in the second quarter of 2021 was 2.8% higher than in the second quarter of 2019 benefiting from improved product mix, lower sales incentives, lower tariff and restructuring costs and a reduced cost structure behind 2020 restructuring actions. Operating income from Financial Services was up 25.2% compared to the second quarter of 2019 due primarily to a lower provision for credit losses and lower interest expense.
Worldwide independent dealer retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles in the second quarter of 2021 were up 23.8% compared to the second quarter of 2020 led by a 42.8% increase in the U.S., partially offset by declines in the Company's markets outside of North America. Refer to the Motorcycles Retail Sales and Registration Data section for further discussion of retail sales results.

Additional European Union Tariffs(1)
In April 2021, the Company received notification from the Economic Ministry of Belgium that, following a request from the European Union (EU), the Company would be subject to the revocation of Binding Origin Information (BOI) rulings, effective April 19, 2021. Beginning in 2019, the Company has operated under BOIs that allowed it to supply its EU markets with certain motorcycles produced at its Thailand manufacturing facility at tariff rates of 6%. Following the revocation, all non-electric motorcycles that Harley-Davidson imports into the EU, regardless of origin, became subject to a total tariff rate of 31% on April 19, 2021. At that time it was expected to increase to 56% effective June 1, 2021. However, in May 2021, the EU made a decision to suspend the previously scheduled increase in the tariff rate to 56% while negotiations take place between the U.S. and the EU. If the U.S. and the EU do not reach a resolution, as it stands, the tariffs would increase again to 56% in December 2021. The additional EU tariff, whether at a rate of 31% or a rate of 56%, will significantly disadvantage the Company from competing effectively in the EU. Based on the EU's decision to suspend the previously scheduled increase from June 2021 to December 2021, the Company now estimates the impact of the additional EU tariffs in 2021, if unmitigated, to be approximately $80 million, including approximately $19 million recognized in the first six months of 2021.
In May 2021, the Company applied for temporary extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate for motorcycles produced in Thailand and ordered prior to April 19, 2021; however, that application was rejected on July 30, 2021. The Company estimates it could have avoided approximately $50 million of additional EU tariffs in 2021 if the application for extended reliance had been granted. The Company continues its appeals of the revocation of the BOIs and plans to appeal the denial of temporary extended reliance although there is no assurance that these appeals will be successful. The impact of the EU tariffs in 2021 are included in the Company's full-year guidance discussed below.
COVID-19 Pandemic
The Company continues to manage through the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic keeping safety and community well-being a priority. The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on future results depends on future developments, such as the ultimate duration and scope of the pandemic, the success of vaccination programs, and its impact on the Company's customers, independent dealers, distributors, and suppliers. Future impacts and disruptions could have an adverse effect on production, supply chains, distribution, and demand for the Company's products.
Supply Chain & Distribution – The global supply chain and logistics challenges linked to the COVID-19 pandemic continue to impact the Company and the industry. During the first half of 2021, the Company experienced disruption and increased costs related to the adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on its global supply chain. However, the Company has been successful in mitigating these disruptions to avoid material adverse impacts on its ability to produce and supply product. The Company has experienced cost inflation across all of its modes of freight, as well as within raw materials. To help offset these cost impacts, the Company has implemented an average 2% pricing surcharge on select models in the U.S. effective for models shipped on or after July 1, 2021 for the remainder of model year 2021. The Company expects the global supply chain disruptions to continue through the remainder of 2021, and the Company will continue to actively work to mitigate these impacts on its business. In addition, retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles have been negatively impacted by continued COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns in key international markets as well as logistics challenges that resulted in longer shipping times.
Liquidity – The Company continues to closely monitor its liquidity in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Starting in 2021, the Company began to gradually reduce its cash and cash equivalents from elevated December 2020 levels. At the end of the second quarter of 2021, the Company had $3.0 billion of available liquidity through cash, cash equivalents and availability under its credit and conduit facilities. Liquidity is discussed in more detail under Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Supporting Customers – Starting in the second quarter of 2020, the Company granted an increased amount of short-term payment due date extensions on eligible retail loans to help retail customers get through financial difficulties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. During the first half of 2021, the volume of extensions declined from the levels experienced during 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, but extensions did not return to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels until the end of the second quarter of 2021.
Safety – The Company continues to proactively manage through the COVID-19 pandemic and has implemented robust protocols to keep workers safe in its manufacturing facilities. Most non-production workers continue to work remotely in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Guidance(1)
The Company has the following expectations for the remainder of 2021. Subsequent to July 21, 2021, when the Company last provided its expectations for 2021, the Company has updated its expectations related to 2021 Motorcycles segment operating income given new information received on July 30, 2021 concerning its application for temporary extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate for motorcycles imported into the EU.
The Company continues to expect 2021 Motorcycles segment revenue growth of 30% to 35% over 2020.
The Company expects Motorcycles segment operating income to be adversely impacted by the additional EU tariffs resulting from the revocation of BOIs announced in April 2021, as described above under "Additional EU Tariffs". In April 2021, the Company provided two guidance scenarios for Motorcycles segment operating margin in 2021 given uncertainty about how the EU tariff situation would evolve. The Company's primary scenario was Motorcycles segment operating margin of 7% to 9% which assumed the impact of additional EU tariffs would be fully mitigated. The second guidance scenario was Motorcycles segment operating margin of 5% to 7% and included the full impact of additional EU tariffs. Based on developments since April, the expected impact of additional EU tariffs in 2021 is now more certain, but now is expected to be less than originally estimated.
In May 2021, the EU made a decision to suspend a previously scheduled second increase in additional tariffs (from 31% to 56%) from June 2021 to December 2021. As a result, the Company now estimates the 2021 impact of the additional EU tariffs, if unmitigated, will result in approximately $80 million of additional cost, down from the previous estimate of $135 million. Based on this, the Company's guidance for Motorcycles segment operating margin in 2021 is now 6% to 8% and includes the impact of the additional tariffs. As discussed above, the Company has taken actions in an effort to mitigate the impact of the tariffs; however, given that the Company's application for temporary extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate was rejected in July 2021, the Company does not expect to materially mitigate the current estimated 2021 impact of the additional EU tariffs.
The Company expects Financial Services segment operating income growth in 2021 over 2020 of 75% to 85%, up from the previously communicated range of 50% to 60%. The improved outlook takes into account the favorable credit loss experience through the first half of 2021, as well as the outlook for the remainder of the year.
The Company continues to expect capital expenditures of $190 million to $220 million in 2021.
Within 2021, the Company expects second-half Motorcycles segment revenue and operating income margin to be lower than it was in the first half of 2021. Motorcycles segment revenue for the first half of 2021 is expected to represent approximately 60% of total annual Motorcycles segment revenue. Assuming the additional EU tariffs are not materially mitigated in 2021, which is the Company's current assumption, Motorcycles segment operating income margin is expected to be in the negative mid-single digits for the second half of 2021. The second-half 2021 guidance also incorporates the impact of the shift in model-year launch timing to the first quarter, logistics and raw material inflation rates in line with what has been experienced during the second quarter of 2021, the approximate 2% pricing surcharge in the U.S. and an increase in operating expense as the Company invests in The Hardwire initiatives and prepares for the launch of model-year 2022.
Restructuring Plan Costs and Savings(1)
During 2020, the Company initiated certain restructuring activities as part of The Rewire including a workforce reduction, the termination of certain current and future products, facility changes, optimizing its global independent dealer network, exiting certain international markets, and discontinuing its sales and manufacturing operations in India. These actions included restructuring expenses related to employee termination costs, contract termination costs and non-current asset adjustments. The workforce reduction resulted in the elimination of approximately 700 positions globally, including the termination of approximately 500 employees. In addition, the India action resulted in the termination of approximately 70 employees. The Company incurred approximately $130 million of restructuring expense in connection with these actions during 2020. The Company expects to incur total restructuring expenses for these actions of approximately $150 million, including approximately $20 million in 2021. The Company continues to expect annual ongoing gross savings resulting from these restructuring activities of approximately $115 million. Refer to Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Company's restructuring activities.

The Company reported operating income of $280.4 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to an operating loss of $116.1 million in the same period last year. Motorcycles segment operating income was $185.8 million in the second quarter of 2021, an improvement of $306.8 million compared to the operating loss reported in the second quarter of 2020. Operating income from the Financial Services segment increased $89.6 million compared to the second quarter of 2020. Refer to the Motorcycles and Related Products Segment and Financial Services Segment sections for a more detailed discussion of the factors affecting operating income (loss).
Investment income decreased $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2021 as compared to 2020 driven by lower income from investments in marketable securities and cash equivalents.
The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 2021 was a 25.3% expense compared to a 21.8% benefit for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to discrete tax adjustments recorded in the second quarter of 2020.
Diluted earnings per share was $1.33 in the second quarter of 2021, up $1.93 from diluted net loss per share for the same period last year. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding increased from 153.2 million in the second quarter of 2020 to 155.1 million in the second quarter of 2021.

Worldwide retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles were up 23.8% during the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same period last year, when retail results were adversely impacted by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase in retail sales during the second quarter of 2021 was led by the U.S. market which was positively impacted by strong demand for the Company's new model year Grand American Touring and large Cruiser motorcycles, as well as the launch of the Company's Pan America™ motorcycle in the Adventure Touring space.
International retail sales were negatively impacted by continued COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns in key markets, as well as COVID-19 pandemic related logistics challenges resulting in longer shipping times. In addition, retail sales were impacted by actions taken under The Rewire to streamline the product portfolio to reduce complexity and direct resources toward the Company's core stronghold products. In EMEA, retail sales also declined compared to the same quarter last year due to the Company's decision not to continue selling Street or legacy Sportster motorcycles. Asia Pacific retail sales were negatively impacted by the Company's decision not to continue selling Street motorcycles. Latin America retail sales were adversely impacted during the second quarter of 2021 by the reduction of independent dealers and pricing actions executed as part of The Rewire actions in 2020 to restore profitability in those markets.
At the end of the second quarter of 2021, worldwide independent dealer retail inventory of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles was down approximately 45%, or approximately 21,500 motorcycles, including approximately 13,000 fewer in the U.S., compared to the second quarter of 2020. The decline in retail inventory was driven by stronger than anticipated retail demand, as well as longer shipping times to the Company's international markets. The Company is working to optimize retail inventory levels, but does not expect dealer inventory to reach desired optimal levels until 2022(1). While the Company originally planned for higher retail inventory levels at the end of the second quarter of 2021, the Company has observed that lower inventory levels have helped foster increased desirability as evidenced by strong new and used motorcycle retail prices in the U.S. and continued improvement in dealer profitability in the quarter.

The Company shipped 56,668 Harley-Davidson motorcycles worldwide during the second quarter of 2021, which was 99.8% higher than the second quarter of 2020. Wholesale shipments in 2020 were down significantly due to the Company's temporary suspension of global manufacturing operations during the second quarter of 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The mix of Cruiser and Sportster/Street motorcycles shipped during the second quarter of 2021 decreased as a percent of total shipments while the mix of Grand American Touring motorcycles increased compared to the same period last year. In addition, during the second quarter of 2021, motorcycle unit shipments increased as a result of the Company's launch of Pan America™, the Company's first Adventure Touring motorcycle.
As the Company continues to increase its customer focus, it is updating its motorcycle product categories to better reflect customer needs and preferences. The Grand American Touring category includes the Company's traditional touring motorcycles and a new category for Adventure Touring has been added.

Factors affecting the comparability of net revenue, cost of goods sold and gross profit from the second quarter of 2020 to the second quarter of 2021 were as follows:
The increase in volume was due to higher wholesale motorcycle shipments and higher Parts & Accessories and General Merchandise sales.
Revenue and gross profit were favorably impacted by stronger foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar, partially offset by unfavorable net foreign currency losses associated with hedging and balance sheet remeasurements recorded in cost of goods sold.
Changes in the shipment mix between motorcycle families had a favorable impact on revenue and gross profit in the second quarter of 2021 due to a higher mix of Grand American Touring models.
Raw material cost increases were driven by higher prices primarily related to certain metals.
Manufacturing and other costs decreased primarily due to a lower fixed cost per unit given the temporary suspension of global manufacturing operations during the second quarter of 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company also benefited from cost savings resulting from the Company's 2020 restructuring actions. These cost reductions were partially offset by higher COVID-19 pandemic-related supply chain costs and increased tariff costs. The impact of additional EU tariffs was $15.8 million in 2021 compared to $5.7 million in 2020.

Table of Contents
Operating expenses were lower in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period last year due to lower restructuring expenses partially offset by higher selling and administrative expenses. Selling and administrative expenses were higher given last year's cost saving initiatives undertaken to preserve cash at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Refer to Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding restructuring expenses.

Operating income$94,538 $4,925 $89,613 1,819.6 %
Interest income was lower for the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to lower average outstanding finance receivables, which was mostly offset by a higher average yield. Other income increased in the second quarter of 2021, compared to the same period last year, due in part to higher licensing and insurance income. Interest expense decreased due to lower average outstanding debt and a lower cost of funds.
The provision for credit losses decreased $75.0 million compared to the second quarter of 2020 primarily driven by improved economic conditions and favorable retail credit loss performance. The provision for credit losses was favorably impacted by an improvement in the U.S. economy and the Company’s outlook on future economic conditions during the second quarter of 2021 as compared to the same period last year. Although there was economic improvement from the second quarter of 2020, the pace of economic recovery remains uncertain as demonstrated by unemployment levels above those experienced prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and continuing COVID-19 pandemic-related challenges across the U.S., among other factors. As such, at the end of the second quarter of 2021, the Company's outlook on economic conditions and its probability weighting of its economic forecast scenarios included economic improvement with an emphasis on a slower path to economic recovery. The Company’s expectations surrounding its economic forecasts may change in future periods as additional information becomes available.
Retail credit losses during the second quarter of 2021 were also favorable due to continued low delinquency levels and elevated used motorcycle values at auction. The continued low delinquency levels were driven by benefits provided under U.S. federal stimulus packages as well the effects of COVID-19 pandemic-related extensions. Starting in the second quarter of 2020, the Company granted COVID-19 pandemic-related extensions to help customers get through financial difficulties associated with the pandemic. During the first half of 2021, the volume of extensions declined from the levels experienced during 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, but extensions did not return to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels until the end of the second quarter of 2021. The Company continues to grant standard payment extensions to customers in accordance with its policies. Favorable used motorcycle values stemmed from a lower number of motorcycles at auction.
Operating expenses increased $4.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to higher employee related costs.

Refer to the Motorcycles and Related Products Segment and Financial Services Segment discussions for a more detailed analysis of the factors affecting operating income (loss).
Investment income increased $3.7 million in 2021 as compared to 2020, driven by higher income from investments in cash equivalents and marketable securities.
The Company's effective income tax rate for the first half of 2021 was 24.5% compared to 3.7% for the same period in 2020. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 28, 2020 was impacted by discrete income tax expenses recorded during the period, including adjustments related to the reassessment of the realizability of certain deferred tax assets, which reduced the Company's income tax benefit for the period.
Diluted earnings per share was $3.01 in the first half of 2021, up from a diluted net loss per share of $(0.15) for the same period last year. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding increased from 153.1 million in the first half of 2020 to 154.8 million in the first half of 2021.

Worldwide retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles were up 17.6% during the first half of 2021 compared to the same period last year, when results were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic including temporary closures of independent dealers. The increase in retail sales during the first half of 2021 was led by the U.S. market which was positively impacted by the Company's shift in new model year launch timing from August to the first quarter of 2021 and strong demand for the Company's new model year Grand American Touring and large Cruiser motorcycles. Additionally, retail sales in the first half of 2021 were positively impacted by the launch of the Company's Pan America™ motorcycle in the Adventure Touring space.
International retail sales were negatively impacted by continued COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns in key markets, as well as COVID-19 related logistic challenges resulting in longer shipping times. In addition, retail sales were impacted by actions taken under The Rewire to streamline the product portfolio to reduce complexity and direct resources toward the Company's core stronghold products. Retail sales in EMEA also declined compared to the first half of 2020 due to the Company's decision not to continue selling Street or legacy Sportster motorcycles. Asia Pacific retail sales were negatively impacted by the Company's decision not to continue selling Street motorcycles. Latin America retail sales were adversely impacted during the first half of 2021 by the reduction of independent dealers and pricing actions executed as part of The Rewire actions in 2020 to restore profitability in those markets.

The increase in volume was due to higher wholesale motorcycle shipments and higher Parts & Accessories and General Merchandise sales.
During the first half of 2021, revenue benefited from lower sales incentives.
Revenue and gross profit were favorably impacted by stronger foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar partially offset by unfavorable net foreign currency losses associated with hedging and balance sheet remeasurements recorded in cost of goods sold.
Changes in the shipment mix between motorcycle families had a favorable impact on revenue and gross profit during the first half of 2021 due primarily to a higher mix of Grand American Touring models.
Raw material cost increases were driven by higher prices primarily related to certain metals.

Table of Contents
Manufacturing and other costs decreased primarily due to a lower fixed cost per unit given the temporary suspension of global manufacturing operations during the second quarter of 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company also benefited from cost savings resulting from the Company's 2020 restructuring actions. These costs reductions were partially offset by higher COVID-19 pandemic related supply chain costs and increased tariff costs. The impact of additional EU tariffs was $18.7 million in the first half of 2021 compared to $15.9 million in the first half of 2020.
Operating expenses were lower in the first half of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due primarily to lower restructuring costs related to the Company's 2020 restructuring actions.

Interest income was lower for the first six months of 2021, primarily due to lower average outstanding finance receivables, partially offset by a higher average yield. Other income increased due in part to higher insurance and licensing income. Interest expense decreased due to lower average outstanding debt and a lower cost of funds.
The provision for credit losses decreased $176.9 million compared to the first six months of 2020 driven primarily by improved economic conditions and favorable retail credit loss performance. The provision for credit losses was favorable as a result of improvement in the U.S. economy and the Company’s outlook on future economic conditions. However, the pace of economic recovery remains uncertain as demonstrated by unemployment levels above those experienced prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and continuing COVID-19 pandemic-related challenges across the U.S., among other factors. As such, at the end of the second quarter of 2021, the Company's outlook on economic conditions and its probability weighting of its economic forecast scenarios included economic improvement with an emphasis on a slower path to economic recovery. The Company’s expectations surrounding its economic forecasts may change in future periods as additional information becomes available.
Annualized credit losses for the Company's retail motorcycle loans were 0.84% through first half of 2021 compared to 1.87% through first half of 2020. The favorable retail credit loss performance was due to elevated used motorcycle values at auction in the U.S. and continued lower than normal delinquency levels driven by benefits provided under the U.S. federal stimulus packages and COVID-19 retail payment extensions. The 30-day delinquency rate for retail motorcycle loans at June 27, 2021 was 2.21% compared to 1.75% at June 28, 2020. Starting in the second quarter of 2020, the Company granted COVID-19 pandemic-related extensions to help customers get through financial difficulties associated with the pandemic. During the first half of 2021, the volume of extensions declined from the levels experienced during 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, but extensions did not return to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels until the end of the second quarter of 2021. The Company continues to grant standard payment extensions to customers in accordance with its policies. Favorable used motorcycle values stemmed from a lower number of motorcycles at auction. While the Company expects the delinquency rate to normalize over time, given the influx of stimulus funding and the improved economic conditions, the Company believes it is likely losses will continue to remain low through the remainder of 2021.(1)

Other Matters
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, product and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to these items, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss. Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomes available for each matter. Refer to Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the Company's commitments and contingencies.
Liquidity and Capital Resources(1)
The Company's response to the COVID-19 pandemic included actions implemented during 2020 to preserve cash and secure additional liquidity. The Company continues to monitor its liquidity in light of uncertainty related to the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on the Company's current outlook, for both the near and longer terms, it expects Motorcycles segment operations to continue to be funded primarily through cash flows generated by operations and Financial Services segment operations to continue to be funded with unsecured debt, unsecured commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities, committed unsecured bank facilities, asset-backed securitizations and deposits.(1)
The Company's cash allocation priorities are first to fund growth through The Hardwire initiatives, then to reward shareholders through dividends. Given the Company’s strong cash position, the Company may also choose to execute discretionary share repurchases.
The Company's strategy is to maintain a minimum of twelve months of its projected liquidity needs through a combination of cash and cash equivalents and availability under its credit facilities. In response to liquidity concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company increased its cash and cash equivalents during 2020. The Company's cash and cash equivalents remain higher than pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels at the end of June 2021, but during the first half of 2021, the Company began to gradually reduce its cash and cash equivalents from December 2020 levels. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and availability under its credit and conduit facilities at June 27, 2021 were as follows (in thousands):

To access the debt capital markets, the Company relies on credit rating agencies to assign short-term and long-term credit ratings. Generally, lower credit ratings result in higher borrowing costs and reduced access to debt capital markets. A credit rating agency may change or withdraw the Company's ratings based on its assessment of the Company's current and future ability to meet interest and principal repayment obligations. The Company’s short-term debt ratings affect its ability to issue unsecured commercial paper. The Company’s short- and long-term debt ratings, as of June 27, 2021 were as follows:
 Short-TermLong-TermOutlook
Moody’sP3Baa3Stable
Standard & Poor’sA3BBB-Stable
FitchF2BBB+Negative
The Company recognizes that it must continue to monitor and adjust its business to changes in the lending environment. The Company intends to continue with a diversified funding profile through a combination of short-term and long-term funding vehicles and to pursue a variety of sources to obtain cost-effective funding.(1) The Financial Services operations could be negatively affected by higher costs of funding and increased difficulty of raising, or potential unsuccessful efforts to raise, funding in the short-term and long-term capital markets.(1) These negative consequences could in turn adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations in various ways, including through higher costs of capital, reduced funds available through its Financial Services operations to provide loans to independent dealers and their retail customers, and dilution to existing shareholders through the use of alternative sources of capital.

Operating Activities
The increase in net cash from operating activities for the first half of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 reflects benefits from improved net income, partially offset by higher wholesale finance receivable originations. The Company continues to expect that it will generate sufficient cash inflows from operations to fund its ongoing operating cash requirements including those related to existing contractual commitments. The Company's purchase orders for inventory used in manufacturing generally do not become firm commitments until 90 days prior to expected delivery. The Company's material contractual operating cash commitments relate to leases, retirement plan obligations and income taxes. The Company's long-term lease obligations and future payments are discussed further in Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements. There are no required qualified pension plan contributions in 2021. The Company’s expected future contributions and benefit payments related to its defined benefit retirement plans are discussed further in Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company has a liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $52.3 million and related accrued interest and penalties of $26.7 million as of June 27, 2021. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the period of cash settlement for either the liability for unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties.
Investing Activities
The Company’s most significant investing activities consist of capital expenditures and retail finance receivable originations and collections. Capital expenditures were $37.6 million in the first half of 2021 compared to $67.0 million in the same period last year. The Company's 2021 plan includes estimated capital expenditures between $190 million to $220 million, all of which the Company expects to fund with net cash flow generated by operations.(1)
Net cash outflows from finance receivables for the first half of 2021 were $266.3 million higher compared to the same period last year due primarily to higher retail finance receivable originations. The Company funds its finance receivables net lending activity through the issuance of debt, discussed in "Financing Activities" below.

Financing Activities
The Company’s financing activities consist primarily of dividend payments, share repurchases, and debt activity.
The Company paid dividends of $0.30 and $0.40 per share totaling $46.2 million and $61.9 million during the first half of 2021 and 2020, respectively.
There were no discretionary share repurchases in 2021 or 2020. Share repurchases of common stock that employees surrendered to satisfy withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units during the first six months of 2021 and 2020 were $10.9 million or 0.3 million shares and $7.2 million or 0.2 million shares, respectively. As of June 27, 2021, there were 18.2 million shares remaining on board-approved share repurchase authorizations.
Financing cash flows related to debt and deposit activity resulted in net cash outflows of $1.7 billion in the first six months of 2021 compared to net cash inflows of $2.8 billion in the first six months of 2020. The Company’s total outstanding debt and deposits consisted of the following (in thousands):

Deposits – During 2020, HDFS began offering brokered certificates of deposit to customers indirectly through contractual arrangements with third-party banks and/or securities brokerage firms through its bank subsidiary. The Company had $259.4 million and $18.0 million, net of fees, of interest-bearing brokered certificates of deposit outstanding as of June 27, 2021 and June 28, 2020, respectively. The deposits are classified as short- and long-term liabilities based upon the term of each brokered certificate of deposit issued. Each separate brokered certificate of deposit is issued under a master certificate, and as such, all outstanding brokered certificates of deposit are considered below the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance coverage limits.
Credit Facilities – In April 2020, the Company entered into a $707.5 million five-year credit facility to replace the $765.0 million five-year credit facility that was due to mature in April 2021. The new five-year credit facility matures in April 2025. At the end of the first quarter of 2021, the Company had borrowings of $15.5 million outstanding under this facility, which the Company repaid in full on April 7, 2021. The Company also amended its $780.0 million five-year credit facility in April 2020 to $707.5 million with no change to the maturity date of April 2023. Additionally, the Company had a $350.0 million 364-day credit facility that matured in May 2021. The five-year credit facilities (together, the Global Credit Facilities) bear interest at variable rates, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on certain criteria, such as credit ratings. The Global Credit Facilities also require the Company to pay a fee based on the average daily unused portion of the aggregate commitments. The Global Credit Facilities are committed facilities primarily used to support the Company's unsecured commercial paper program.
Unsecured Commercial Paper – Subject to limitations, the Company could issue unsecured commercial paper of up to $1.42 billion as of June 27, 2021 supported by the Global Credit Facilities, as discussed above. Outstanding unsecured commercial paper may not exceed the unused portion of the Global Credit Facilities. Maturities may range up to 365 days from the issuance date. The Company intends to repay unsecured commercial paper as it matures with additional unsecured

commercial paper or through other means, such as borrowing under the Global Credit Facilities, borrowing under its asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facility or through the use of operating cash flow and cash on hand.(1)

The U.S. dollar-denominated medium-term notes provide for semi-annual interest payments and the foreign currency-denominated medium-term notes provide for annual interest payments. Principal on the medium-term notes is due at maturity. Unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs on the medium-term notes reduced the outstanding balance by $12.1 million and $19.3 million at June 27, 2021 and June 28, 2020, respectively. During the second quarter of 2021, $350.0 million of 3.55% medium-term notes matured, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full. During the first quarter of 2021, $600.0 million of 2.85% medium-term notes and $450.0 million of floating-rate medium-term notes matured, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full. During the second quarter of 2020, $450.0 million of floating-rate and $350.0 million of 2.4% medium-term notes matured, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full. During the first quarter of 2020, $600.0 million of 2.15% medium-term notes matured, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full.
Senior Notes – In July 2015, the Company issued $750.0 million of unsecured senior notes in an underwritten offering. The senior notes provide for semi-annual interest payments and principal due at maturity. $450.0 million of the senior notes mature in July 2025 and have an interest rate of 3.50%, and $300.0 million of the senior notes mature in July 2045 and have an interest rate of 4.625%. The Company used the proceeds from the debt to repurchase shares of its common stock in 2015.
On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Canadian Commercial Paper Conduit Facility – The Company has a revolving facility agreement (Canadian Conduit) with a Canadian bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduit. Under the agreement, the Canadian Conduit is contractually committed, at the Company's option, to purchase from the Company eligible Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables for proceeds up to C$125.0 million. The transferred assets are restricted as collateral for the payment of the associated debt. The terms for this facility provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing market interest rates plus a specified margin. The Canadian Conduit also provides for a program fee and an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment of C$125.0 million. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the Canadian Conduit, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement between the Company and the lenders, as of June 27, 2021, the Canadian Conduit has an expiration date of June 27, 2022.
There were no finance receivable transfers under the Canadian Conduit Facility during the first half of 2021 or the second quarter of 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company transferred $77.9 million of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit for proceeds of $61.6 million.
On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed U.S. Commercial Paper Conduit Facilities VIE – Until November 25, 2020, the Company had two separate agreements with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits, a $300.0 million revolving facility agreement and a $600.0 million revolving facility agreement (together, the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities). On November 25, 2020, the Company amended each revolving facility agreement by consolidating the two agreements into one $900.0 million revolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. Under the revolving facility agreement, the Company may transfer U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE, which in turn may issue debt to those third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. In addition to the $900.0 million aggregate commitment, the agreement allows for additional borrowings, at the lender’s
55

Table of Contents
discretion, of up to $300.0 million. Availability under the $900.0 million revolving facility (the U.S. Conduit Facility) is based on, among other things, the amount of eligible U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables held by the SPE as collateral.
There were no finance receivable transfers under the U.S. Conduit Facility during the first half of 2021 or the second quarter of 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company transferred $195.3 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $163.6 million of debt under the Former U.S. Conduit Facilities.
The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing commercial paper rates if funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper. If not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper, the terms of the interest are based on LIBOR. In each of these cases, a program fee is assessed based on the outstanding principal. The U.S. Conduit Facility also provides for an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment. When calculating the unused fee, the aggregate commitment does not include any unused portion of the $300.0 million additional borrowings allowed. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the U.S. Conduit Facility, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables held by the SPE is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, as of June 27, 2021, the U.S. Conduit Facility has an expiration date of November 19, 2021.
Asset-Backed Securitization VIEs – For all of its asset-backed securitization transactions, the Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to separate VIEs, which in turn issue secured notes with various maturities and interest rates to investors. All of the notes held by the VIEs are secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. The U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitization transactions are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company's creditors until the associated debt and other obligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the VIEs are used only to support the securitizations.
The accounting treatment for asset-backed securitizations depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE. The Company's current outstanding asset-backed securitizations do not meet the criteria to be accounted for as a sale because, in addition to retaining servicing rights, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. These transactions are treated as secured borrowings. As secured borrowings, the retail motorcycle finance receivables remain on the balance sheet with a corresponding obligation reflected as debt. There is no amortization schedule for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes currently have various contractual maturities ranging from 2023 to 2028.
Quarterly transfers of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs, the respective proceeds, and the respective proceeds, net of discounts and issuance costs were as follows (in thousands):

Support Agreement – The Company has a support agreement with HDFS whereby, if required, the Company agrees to provide HDFS with financial support to maintain HDFS’ fixed-charge coverage at 1.25 and minimum net worth of $40.0 million. Support may be provided at the Company’s option as capital contributions or loans. Accordingly, certain debt covenants may restrict the Company’s ability to withdraw funds from HDFS outside the normal course of business. No amount has ever been provided to HDFS under the support agreement.
Operating and Financial Covenants – HDFS and the Company are subject to various operating and financial covenants related to the credit facilities and various operating covenants under the medium-term and senior notes and the U.S. and Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. The more significant covenants are described below.
The operating covenants limit the Company’s and HDFS’ ability to:
Assume or incur certain liens;
Participate in certain mergers or consolidations; and
Purchase or hold margin stock.
56

Table of Contents
Under the current financial covenants of the Global Credit Facilities, the ratio of HDFS’ consolidated debt, excluding secured debt, to HDFS' consolidated allowance for credit losses on finance receivables plus HDFS’ consolidated shareholders' equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL), cannot exceed 10.0 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. In addition, the ratio of the Company's consolidated debt to the Company's consolidated debt and consolidated shareholders’ equity (where the Company's consolidated debt in each case excludes that of HDFS and its subsidiaries, and the Company's consolidated shareholders’ equity excludes AOCL), cannot exceed 0.7 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. No financial covenants are required under the medium-term or senior notes or the U.S. or Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities.
As of June 27, 2021, HDFS and the Company remained in compliance with all of the then existing covenants.

The Company's operations, demand for its products, and its liquidity could be adversely impacted by work stoppages, facility closures, strikes, natural causes, widespread infectious disease, terrorism, or other factors. Other factors are described in Item 1A. Risk Factors and risk factors that the Company has disclosed in documents previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Many of these risk factors are impacted by the current changing capital, credit and retail markets and the Company's ability to manage through inconsistent economic conditions.
The Company’s ability to sell its motorcycles and related products and services and to meet its financial expectations also depends on the ability of the Company’s independent dealers to sell its motorcycles and related products and services to retail customers. The Company depends on the capability and financial capacity of its independent dealers to develop and implement effective retail sales plans to create demand for the motorcycles and related products and services they purchase from the Company. In addition, the Company’s independent dealers and distributors may experience difficulties in operating their businesses and selling Harley-Davidson motorcycles and related products and services as a result of weather, economic conditions, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, or other factors.
In recent years, HDFS has experienced historically low levels of retail credit losses, but there is no assurance that this will continue. The Company believes that HDFS' retail credit losses may increase over time due to changing consumer credit behavior and HDFS' efforts to increase prudently structured loan approvals to sub-prime borrowers, as well as actions that the Company has taken and could take that impact motorcycle values.
Refer to Item 1A. Risk Factors of this report and Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for a discussion of additional risk factors and a more complete discussion of some of the cautionary statements noted above.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates. To reduce such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. Sensitivity analysis is used to manage and monitor foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate risks. Further disclosure relating to the fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments is included in Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements.
Motorcycles and Related Products Segment
The Company sells its motorcycles and related products internationally and in most markets those sales are made in the foreign country’s local currency. As a result, the Motorcycles segment operating results are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies. The Company’s most significant foreign currency exchange rate risk resulting from the sale of motorcycles and related products relates to the Euro, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Brazilian real, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Chinese yuan, Thai baht, Singapore dollar and Pound sterling. The Company utilizes foreign currency contracts to mitigate the effect of certain currencies' fluctuations on Motorcycles segment operating results. The foreign currency contracts are entered into with banks and allow the Company to exchange currencies at a future date, based on a fixed exchange rate. There have been no material changes to the foreign currency exchange rate market risk information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The Company purchases commodities for the use in the production of motorcycles. As a result, Motorcycles segment operating results are affected by changes in commodity prices. The Company uses derivative financial instruments on a limited basis to hedge the prices of certain commodities. There have been no material changes to the commodity market risk information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Financial Services Segment
The Company has interest rate sensitive financial instruments including financial receivables, debt and interest rate derivative financial instruments. As a result, Financial Services operating income is affected by changes in interest rates. The
58

Company utilizes interest rate caps to reduce the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on its asset-backed securitization transactions. There have been no material changes to the interest rate market risk information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
HDFS also has short-term commercial paper and debt issued through the commercial paper conduit facilities that is subject to changes in interest rates which it does not hedge.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
An investment in Harley-Davidson, Inc. involves risks, including the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which have not materially changed except as set forth below.
Trade policies and changes in trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs, their enforcement and downstream consequences, may continue to have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and outlook. Tariffs and/or other developments with respect to trade policies, trade agreements and government regulations could have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. To date, the European Union (EU) has placed a 25% additional tariff (31% total tariff) on motorcycles imported into the EU which may increase to a 50% additional tariff (56% total tariff) effective December 1, 2021 following the EU's decision in May 2021 to suspend the increase until November 30, 2021 while the EU and the U.S. work towards politically resolving the restrictive tariffs imposed by each country. Shipments of motorcycles to the EU are a significant portion of the Company’s total motorcycles sales. Beginning in 2019, the Company obtained regulatory approvals, reflected in five Binding Origin Information (BOI) rulings, that allowed it to supply its EU markets with certain of its motorcycles produced at its Thailand facilities at tariff rates of 6%. In April 2021, the Company received notification from the Economic Ministry of Belgium that, following a request from the EU, the Company would be subject to the revocation of the BOI rulings, effective April 19, 2021. Following the revocation, non-electric motorcycles Harley-Davidson imports into the EU, regardless of origin, are subject to a total tariff rate of 31% from April 19, 2021 to November 30, 2021. This rate is expected to increase to 56% effective December 1, 2021 should the EU and the U.S. not reach a political resolution before that date. The additional EU tariff, whether at a rate of 31% or at a rate of 56%, will significantly disadvantage the Company from competing effectively in the EU. In May 2021, the Company applied for temporary extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate for motorcycles produced in Thailand and ordered prior to April 19, 2021; however, that application was rejected on July 30, 2021. Refer to Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for a discussion of the Company's estimates of the impact of this rejection. The Company continues its appeals of the revocation of the BOIs and plans to appeal the denial of temporary extended reliance although there is no assurance that these appeals will be successful. The full impact of the revocation is subject to uncertainties that include the following, among other factors: (i) uncertainties regarding the quantity and mix of motorcycles that the Company imports into the EU; (ii) uncertainties regarding the import prices of motorcycles; (iii) whether the Company will be successful in appealing the revocation of the BOI rulings and the denial of temporary extended reliance; (iv) uncertainties regarding the size and duration of the EU tariffs; and (v) whether and to what extent the Company determines to attempt to pass on the impact of the revocation to dealers and its success in doing so.
In addition, the U.S. government imposed increased tariffs on imports from China (Section 301 tariffs), which has resulted in higher costs for components and products sourced from China.
Without limitation, (i) tariffs currently in place, (ii) the imposition by the U.S. government of new tariffs on imports to the U.S. and/or (iii) the imposition by foreign countries of tariffs on U.S. products, including tariffs imposed in response to U.S. tariffs, could materially increase: (a) the cost of Harley-Davidson products that the Company is offering for sale in relevant countries, (b) the cost of certain products that the Company sources from foreign manufacturers and (c) the prices of certain raw materials that the Company utilizes. The Company may not be able to pass such increased costs on to distributors, independent dealers or their customers, and the Company may not be able to secure sources of certain products and materials that are not subject to tariffs on a timely basis. Such developments could have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company disclaims any obligation to update these risk factors or any other forward-looking statements. The Company assumes no obligation, and specifically disclaims any such obligation, to update these risk factors or any other forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or other factors affecting such forward-looking statements.
