OVERVIEW:
PACCAR is a global technology company whose Truck segment includes the design and manufacture of high-quality light-, medium- and heavy-duty commercial trucks. InNorth America , trucks are sold under the Kenworth andPeterbilt nameplates, inEurope , under the DAF nameplate and inAustralia andSouth America , under the Kenworth and DAF nameplates. The Parts segment includes the distribution of aftermarket parts for trucks and related commercial vehicles. The Company's Financial Services segment derives its earnings primarily from financing or leasingPACCAR products inNorth America ,Europe ,Australia and Brasil. The Company's Other business includes the manufacturing and marketing of industrial winches.PACCAR's financial results for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2020 were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, with the most significant impact in the quarter endedJune 30, 2020 . The Company's truck and engine production was suspended at its factories worldwide startingMarch 24, 2020 . Truck and engine production restarted inEurope andAustralia onApril 20, 2020 , and factories gradually resumed operations inNorth America and Brasil in early May. In the third quarter the Company resumed production at rates sufficient to accommodate demand while maintaining appropriate health and safety protocols. Effects of the pandemic in the first nine months included reduced truck deliveries, increased costs associated with suspension of production, lower aftermarket parts sales and higher provision for losses on Financial Services receivables. Increased costs related to suspension of production primarily included reduced labor efficiency, costs to prepare factories for safe re-opening and reduced factory utilization. The Company implemented cost saving measures in the first nine months to partially offset the increased costs. During the pandemic, the Company's Parts segment has continued to provide aftermarket support through its parts distribution centers, and the Financial Services segment has continued to provide financing, leasing services and related support to customers.

PACCAR Inc , Kenworth,Peterbilt , PACCAR Parts and Dynacraft were each honored by the Women inTrucking Association (WIT) as a 2020 "Top Company for Women to Work for in Transportation". The recognition was for fostering gender diversity, flexible hours, competitive compensation and benefits, training, professional development and career advancement opportunities.The PACCAR Financial Services (PFS) group of companies has operations covering four continents and 26 countries. The global breadth of PFS and its rigorous credit application process support a portfolio of loans and leases with total assets of$15.28 billion . PFS issued$1.89 billion in medium-term notes during the first nine months of 2020 to support new business volume and repay maturing debt. Truck Outlook The Company suspended truck production worldwide onMarch 24, 2020 , due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company began truck production at selected factories inEurope andAustralia onApril 20, 2020 .Resumption of North America and Brasil truck production occurred in early May. The Company adjusted its manufacturing facilities for social distancing and implemented deep cleaning procedures. Initial truck production rates at all facilities were lower than those in effect at the time of the worldwide closure. In the third quarter, production rates had almost returned to pre-pandemic levels. Future production volumes will depend on market demand for trucks, parts availability from the Company's suppliers and further government directives related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Assuming no significant impacts from a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic, truck industry retail sales in theU.S. andCanada in 2020 are expected to be 190,000 to 210,000 units compared to 308,800 in 2019. Estimates for theU.S. andCanada truck industry retail sales in 2021 are in the range of 210,000 to 250,000 units. InEurope , the 2020 truck industry registrations for over 16-tonne vehicles are expected to be 210,000 to 230,000 units compared to 320,200 in 2019. The 2021 European truck industry registrations in the above 16-tonne truck market are projected to be in a range 230,000 to 270,000 units. InSouth America , heavy-duty truck industry registrations in 2020 are estimated at 75,000 to 85,000 as compared to 105,100 in 2019. The 2021 heavy-duty truck industry sales inSouth America are projected to be in a range of 95,000 to 105,000 units. Parts Outlook The Company continues to provide strong aftermarket support to enable the shipment of essential goods and services to communities around the world while following social distancing and hygiene protocols. Strengthening economies and higher truck traffic in the third quarter resulted in increased demand for aftermarket parts as compared to the prior quarter. In 2020, PACCAR Parts sales are expected to decrease 4-5% compared to 2019 sales. In 2021, PACCAR Parts sales are expected to increase 4-7% from 2020 levels. If general economic weakness persists, lower freight volumes could reduce the demand for replacement parts, resulting in lower parts revenues and operating results.
Financial Services Outlook
PACCAR Financial Services continues to provide financing and leasing services and related support to customers during the COVID19 pandemic. The size of the portfolio will be affected by the amount of new truck financing volume. Depending on the length and depth of the economic weakness associated with the pandemic, lower truck sales volume would result in lower volumes of new business. The lower level of economic activity is affecting some industries more than others. The Company does not have a concentration of exposure in any one segment or industry. Although past-dues and credit losses are at low levels, continued economic weakness could result in lower freight volumes which could adversely impact customers' operating results and cash flows. If economic conditions further worsen, it would likely lead to more credit modification requests, higher past due accounts, increased provisions for credit losses, and lower used truck values. Based on the truck market outlook, average earning assets in 2020 and 2021 are expected to remain similar to 2019 levels. - 32 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Capital Investments and R&D Outlook
Capital investments in 2020 are expected to be$570 to$600 million and R&D is expected to be$270 to$280 million . In 2021, capital investments are projected to be$575 to$625 million and R&D is expected to be$330 to$360 million . The Company is investing for long-term growth in aerodynamic truck models, diesel and zero emissions powertrain technologies, advanced driver assistance systems, connected vehicle services and next-generation manufacturing and distribution capabilities.

In the third quarter of 2020, PFS finance market share on newPACCAR truck sales increased to 28.9% from 25.8% in the third quarter of 2019. In the first nine months of 2020, PFS finance market share on newPACCAR truck sales increased to 26.8% from 23.6% in the first nine months of 2019. In the third quarter of 2020, PFS revenues increased to$397.6 million from$362.8 million in 2019, and in the first nine months of 2020, PFS revenues increased to$1,141.6 million from$1,073.7 million in 2019. The increase in both periods was primarily due to higher used truck sales inEurope , partially offset by lower portfolio yields reflecting lower U.S. market interest rates. The effects of currency translation increased PFS revenues by$1.4 million in the third quarter of 2020 primarily due to a stronger euro, partially offset by a weaker Mexican peso. In the first nine months of 2020, the effects of currency translation decreased PFS revenues by$16.5 million primarily due to a weaker Mexican peso and Brazilian real. - 38 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PFS income before income taxes decreased to$55.5 million in the third quarter of 2020 from$66.5 million in the third quarter of 2019 primarily due to lower used truck results. In the first nine months of 2020, PFS income before income taxes decreased to$159.3 from$230.8 million in 2019 primarily due to lower used truck results, lower yields and a higher provision for credit losses. The effects of translating weaker foreign currencies to theU.S. dollar decreased PFS income before income taxes by$2.3 million and$7.7 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, respectively. Included in Financial Services "Other assets" on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets are used trucks held for sale, net of impairments, of$454.1 million atSeptember 30, 2020 and$391.4 million atDecember 31, 2019 .

The Company recognized losses on used trucks, excluding repossessions, of$24.0 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared to$16.2 million in the third quarter of 2019, including losses on multiple unit transactions of$12.0 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared to$3.6 million in the third quarter of 2019. Used truck losses related to repossessions, which are recognized as credit losses, and used truck gains, which are recognized as credit recoveries, were not significant for either the third quarter of 2020 or 2019. The Company recognized losses on used trucks, excluding repossessions, of$75.2 million in the first nine months of 2020 compared to$34.5 million in the first nine months of 2019, including losses on multiple unit transactions of$26.5 million in the first nine months of 2020 compared to$10.5 million in the first nine months of 2019. Used truck losses related to repossessions, which are recognized as credit losses, and used truck gains, which are recognized as credit recoveries, were not significant for either the first nine months of 2020 or 2019.

The decrease in both periods was due to lower salaries and related expenses as a result of cost controls and lower travel expenses. As a percentage of revenues, Financial Services SG&A decreased to 7.9% in the third quarter of 2020 from 9.9% in the same period of 2019, and in the first nine months, decreased to 7.9% in 2020 from 9.5% in 2019.

In the first nine months, the provision for losses on receivables increased to$27.6 million in 2020 from$11.8 million in 2019, primarily driven by challenging economic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the provision for losses in the first nine months of 2020 reflects the credit loss on a large fleet in theU.S. The provision for losses in 2019 also included recoveries on charged-off accounts inEurope . The Company modifies loans and finance leases as a normal part of its Financial Services operations. The Company may modify loans and finance leases for commercial reasons or for credit reasons. Modifications for commercial reasons are changes to contract terms for customers that are not considered to be in financial difficulty. Insignificant delays are modifications extending terms up to three months for customers experiencing some short-term financial stress, but not considered to be in financial difficulty. Modifications for credit reasons are changes to contract terms for customers considered to be in financial difficulty. The Company's modifications typically result in granting more time to pay the contractual amounts owed and charging a fee and interest for the term of the modification. When considering whether to modify customer accounts for credit reasons, the Company evaluates the creditworthiness of the customers and modifies those accounts the Company considers likely to perform under the modified terms. When the Company modifies a loan or finance lease for credit reasons and grants a concession, the modification is classified as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR).

During the first nine months of 2020, total modification activity significantly increased compared to the first nine months of 2019. The decrease in modifications for Commercial reasons primarily reflects lower volumes of refinancing. The increase in modifications for Insignificant delay reflects fleet customers requesting payment relief for up to three months related to COVID-19. The increase in modifications for Credit - no concession is primarily due to higher volumes of refinancing and requests for payment relief inEurope , theU.S. andMexico . The increase in modifications for Credit -TDR is primarily due to two fleet customers in theU.S. and four fleet customers inMexico . - 42 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following table summarizes the Company's 30+ days past due accounts:

The Company continues to focus on maintaining low past due balances. When the Company modifies a 30+ days past due account, the customer is then generally considered current under the revised contractual terms. The Company modified$13.5 million of accounts worldwide during the third quarter of 2020,$1.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2019 and$7.7 million during the third quarter of 2019 that were 30+ days past due and became current at the time of modification. Had these accounts not been modified and continued to not make payments, the pro forma percentage of retail loan and lease accounts 30+ days past due would have been as follows: September 30 December 31 September 30 2020 2019 2019 Pro forma percentage of retail loan and lease accounts 30+ days past due: U.S. and Canada .1 % .4 % .4 % Europe 1.9 % .7 % 1.0 % Mexico, Australia and other 2.4 % 2.1 % 2.6 % Worldwide .8 % .7 % .8 % Modifications of accounts in prior quarters that were more than 30 days past due at the time of modification are included in past dues if they were not performing under the modified terms atSeptember 30, 2020 ,December 31, 2019 andSeptember 30, 2019 . The effect on the allowance for credit losses from such modifications was not significant atSeptember 30, 2020 ,December 31, 2019 andSeptember 30, 2019 . The Company's annualized pre-tax return on average assets for Financial Services decreased to 1.4% in the third quarter of 2020 from 1.7% in the same period of 2019, primarily driven by lower used truck results. In the first nine months, annualized pre-tax return on average assets for Financial Services decreased to 1.4% in 2020 from 2.0% in 2019, primarily driven by lower used truck results, lower yields and increased provision for losses.
Other
Other includes the winch business as well as sales, income and expenses not attributable to a reportable segment. Other also includes non-service cost components of pension expense and a portion of corporate expense. Other sales represent less than 1% of consolidated net sales and revenues for both the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 and 2019. Other SG&A decreased to$11.9 million for the third quarter of 2020 from$18.4 million for the third quarter of 2019 and decreased to$38.5 million for the first nine months of 2020 from$64.3 million for the first nine month of 2019. The decrease in both periods was primarily due to lower compensation costs reflecting stringent cost controls. For the third quarter, Other income before tax increased to$7.7 million from$1.1 million in 2019 primarily due to lower salaries and related expenses and lower travel expenses, partially offset by lower results from the winch business. For the first nine months, Other income (loss) before tax was$22.8 million compared to$(16.4) million in 2019. The income in the first nine months of 2020 compared to loss in the same period of 2019 was primarily due to lower salaries and related expenses, lower expected costs to resolve certain environmental matters and lower travel expenses, partially offset by lower results from the winch business. Investment income for the third quarter decreased to$6.4 million in 2020 from$21.1 million in 2019. For the first nine months, investment income decreased to$30.2 million in 2020 from$62.2 million in 2019. The lower investment income in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 was primarily due to lower yields onU.S. investments due to lower market interest rates.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2020 was 21.3% compared to 21.8% for the third quarter of 2019. The effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2020 was 21.4% compared to 23.0% for the first nine months of 2019. The lower effective tax rate in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 was primarily due to the change in mix of income generated in jurisdictions with lower tax rates in 2020 as compared to 2019. - 43 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Higher operating cash flows reflect$1,258.5 million from wholesale receivables as the first nine months of 2020 was a cash inflow of$785.7 million versus a cash outflow of$472.8 million in 2019. There was a$436.2 million increase from accounts receivables as sales of goods and services exceeding collections were lower in 2020 compared to 2019. In addition, higher operating cash flows reflect lower net purchases of inventories of$147.1 million as there was$11.9 million in net inventory reductions in 2020 versus$135.2 million in net purchases in 2019. The higher operating cash inflows were partially offset by lower net income of$964.0 million and lower cash inflows of$325.3 million from accounts payable and accrued expenses as purchases of goods and services exceeding payments were lower in 2020 compared to 2019. The higher cash inflows were also offset by higher outflows from product support liabilities of$204.9 million as payments exceeded accruals by$79.2 million in 2020 and accruals exceeded payments by$125.7 million in 2019. Additionally, there were higher cash outflows for pension contributions of$110.1 million . - 44 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investing activities: Cash used in investing activities decreased by$522.2 million to$1,034.3 million in the first nine months of 2020 from$1,556.5 million in 2019. Lower net cash used in investing activities reflects lower net originations from retail loans and finance leases of$154.2 million and lower cash used in the acquisition of equipment for operating leases of$331.7 million . In addition, lower net cash used reflects$65.1 million in lower net purchases of marketable securities in the first nine months of 2020 compared to 2019. The lower cash usage was partially offset by lower proceeds from asset disposals of$58.3 million . Financing activities: Cash used in financing activities was$1,988.0 million for the first nine months of 2020,$1,899.3 million higher than the$88.7 million in 2019. In the first nine months of 2020, the Company issued$2,031.3 million of term debt, repaid term debt of$1,419.1 million and decreased its outstanding commercial paper and short-term bank loans by$1,471.0 million .

This resulted in cash used by borrowing activities of$858.8 million in the first nine months of 2020,$1,874.3 million lower than the cash provided by borrowing activities of$1,015.5 million in 2019. The Company paid$1,128.9 million in dividends in the first nine months of 2020 compared to$1,027.8 million in 2019 due to a higher extra dividend paid inJanuary 2020 . In addition, the Company repurchased .7 million shares of common stock for$41.6 million in the first nine months of 2020 compared to the purchase of 1.7 million shares for$110.2 million in the same period last year.

Financial Services
The Company funds its financial services activities primarily from collections on existing finance receivables and borrowings in the capital markets. The primary sources of borrowings in the capital markets are commercial paper and medium-term notes issued in the public markets and, to a lesser extent, bank loans. InNovember 2018 , the Company'sU.S. finance subsidiary,PACCAR Financial Corp. (PFC), filed a shelf registration under the Securities Act of 1933. The total amount of medium-term notes outstanding for PFC as ofSeptember 30, 2020 was$6.35 billion . InOctober 2020 , PFC issued an additional$100.0 million of medium-term notes under this registration. The registration expires inNovember 2021 and does not limit the principal amount of debt securities that may be issued during that period. - 45 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As ofSeptember 30, 2020 , the Company's European finance subsidiary,PACCAR Financial Europe, had €1.60 billion available for issuance under a €2.50 billion medium-term note program listed on the Euro MTF Market of theLuxembourg Stock Exchange .

In
InAugust 2018 , the Company's Australian subsidiary, PACCAR Financial Pty. Ltd. (PFPL), registered a medium-term note program. The program does not limit the principal amount of debt securities that may be issued under the program. The total amount of medium-term notes outstanding for PFPL as ofSeptember 30, 2020 was450.0 million Australian dollars . The Company believes its cash balances and investments, collections on existing finance receivables, committed bank facilities and current investment-grade credit ratings of A+/A1 will continue to provide it with sufficient resources and access to capital markets at competitive interest rates and therefore contribute to the Company maintaining its liquidity and financial stability. In the event of a decrease in the Company's credit ratings or a disruption in the financial markets, the Company may not be able to refinance its maturing debt in the financial markets. In such circumstances, the Company would be exposed to liquidity risk to the degree that the timing of debt maturities differs from the timing of receivable collections from customers. The Company believes its various sources of liquidity, including committed bank facilities, would continue to provide it with sufficient funding resources to service its maturing debt obligations.
