West Fargo, ND - August 26, 2021 - Titan Machinery Inc. (Nasdaq: TITN), a leading network of full-service agricultural and construction equipment stores, today reported financial results for the fiscal second quarter ended July 31, 2021.
David Meyer, Titan Machinery's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, 'Equipment demand momentum continued through our second fiscal quarter with our equipment revenues increasing 35% versus prior year. The current environment is supported by our healthy inventory position and robust demand, along with continued strength in our parts and service business, driving strong consolidated pre-tax income growth of 89% during second quarter compared to prior year second quarter. From a segment perspective, our Agriculture business was well-positioned and produced exceptional growth as high commodity prices are offsetting drought conditions in areas of our footprint. However, we are especially pleased with the improved performance of both our Construction and International segments. Our construction segment pre-tax income grew 105% versus the prior year and our International segment pre-tax income increased by $0.9 million, and on an adjusted basis by $2.4 million, versus the prior year. Our operational improvements have enhanced the performance of each of our segments, as well as added value to our customers' businesses. Looking forward, our team is ready to support our customers through the upcoming busy harvest and end of year construction seasons, as we complete the second half of our fiscal year.'
Fiscal 2022 Second Quarter Results
Consolidated Results
For the second quarter of fiscal 2022, revenue increased to $377.6 million compared to $303.5 million in the second quarter last year. Equipment sales were $272.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to $202.7 million in the second quarter last year.

Revenue from rental and other was $9.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to $11.4 million in the second quarter last year. Rental revenue was down due to a decrease in inventory rentals, a reduced rental fleet and the January 2021 divestiture of the company's construction stores in Arizona. While the fleet was smaller compared to the prior year, the dollar utilization of the fleet improved to 26.6% in the quarter compared to 22.2% in the same period last year.
Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 was $75.0 million, compared to $62.7 million in the second quarter last year. The Company's gross profit margin decreasedto 19.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to 20.7% in the second quarter last year. Gross profit margin decreased due to mix, with a greater proportion of equipment revenue this year versus higher margin parts and service revenue as compared to the second quarter of the prior year.
Operating expenses increased by $4.0 million to $57.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to $53.1 million in the second quarter last year, primarily due to higher variable expenses on increased revenues. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased 240 basis points to 15.1% for the second quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to 17.5% of revenue in the prior year period. The Company also recognized

Floorplan and other interest expense was $1.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to $1.9 million for the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to lower borrowings.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, net income was $11.2 million, or earnings per diluted share of $0.50, compared to net income of $6.4 million, or earnings per diluted share of $0.28, for the second quarter of last year.

2

lines of credit as of July 31, 2021, compared to $161.8 million outstanding floorplan payables as of January 31, 2021.
In the first six months of fiscal 2022, net cash provided by operating activities was $28.6 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $13.0 millionin the first six months of fiscal 2021. The Company evaluates its cash flow from operating activities net of all floorplan payable activity and maintaining a constant level of equity in its equipment inventory. Taking these adjustments into account, adjusted net cash used for operating activities was $19.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022, compared to adjusted net cash provided by operating activities of $16.1 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021.
Mr. Meyer concluded, 'The current environment is providing us the opportunity to showcase the improvements we've made to our business over the past several years. Our inventory turns are continuing to trend upward and we are receiving inventory shipments that are allowing us to surpass our revenue targets. While supply chains remain tight, we are confident in our ability to drive growth through the second half of our fiscal year and, as a result, we are raising our modeling assumptions accordingly.'
Fiscal 2022 Modeling Assumptions
The following are the Company's current expectations for fiscal 2022 modeling assumptions.
Current Assumptions Previous Assumptions
Segment Revenue
Agriculture(1)
Up 18-23% Up 15-20%
Construction(2)
Up 2-7% Up 2-7%
International
Up 27-32% Up 17-22%
Diluted EPS(3)
$2.00 - $2.20 $1.65 - $1.85
(1) Includes the full year impact of the HorizonWest acquisition completed in May 2020.
(2) Includes the full year impact of the Phoenix and Tucson, AZ store divestitures in January 2021. Adjusting full year fiscal 2021 net sales by $27 million, representing the 2021 net sales of these divested stores, results in a same-store sales assumption of up approximately 10-15%.
(3) Includes expenses related to ERP implementation.
