("ICE") Benchmark Administration ("IBA"), the administrator of the United States Dollar London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR"), issued a statement, following the completion of a formal consultation process, reaffirming the preliminary announcement it made on November 30, 2020, to cease publication of  (i) 1 week and 2 month LIBOR subsequent to December 31, 2021 and (ii)  the overnight and 1, 3, 6 and 12 month LIBOR tenors subsequent to June 30, 2023. The IBA&#8217;s statement regarding such cessation dates primarily resulted from a majority of LIBOR panel banks communicating to the IBA that they would be unwilling to continue contributing to the relevant LIBOR settings after such dates. As a result, the IBA determined that it would be unable to publish the relevant LIBOR settings on a representative basis after such dates. The United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA"), which regulates the IBA, confirmed that, based on information it received from LIBOR panel banks, it does not expect that any LIBOR settings will become unrepresentative before the announced cessation dates summarized above.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#212529;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Currently, the Company&#8217;s interest rate collar, which is not designated in a hedge accounting relationship, and Amended Credit Agreement (defined below) are the only contracts that reference an interest rate index (i.e., 3 month LIBOR) that is subject to the reference rate reform guidance included in the above amendments. While the termination date of the interest rate collar, September 30, 2022, occurs prior to the July 1, 2023 date on which the IBA will no longer publish 3 month LIBOR, the Amended Credit Agreement matures on September 13, 2023, approximately 2.5 months subsequent to such cessation date. However, as management does not currently forecast that the Company will have sufficient cash to fund the term loan borrowings that are expected to be outstanding under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement upon maturity, it is expecting to refinance such borrowings prior to maturity, with such refinancing likely to occur before the July 1, 2023 LIBOR cessation date. Therefore, it is highly likely that neither the interest rate collar nor Amended Credit Agreement will be modified to reflect the discontinuation of 3 month LIBOR effective July 1, 2023 and accordingly, the Company will not be required to decide whether or not to elect to adopt such amendments prior to or on December 31, 2022 (i.e., the last effective date for adopting the amendments). However, to the extent that either or both of the contracts are modified prior to December 31, 2022, the Company plans to adopt the amendments on a prospective basis by adjusting the derivative fair value and/or debt effective interest rate, as applicable, neither of which is expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.</span></div></ix:nonNumeric></ix:nonNumeric><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="height:36pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">8</span></div></div></div><div id="iefb543d09b284feba4e3a3785ac3924e_46"></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"/><div style="min-height:36pt;width:100%"><div><span><br/></span></div></div><ix:nonNumeric contextRef="i2b4bd4bb8e134dfea9bb9872348d3d94_D20211003-20220101" name="us-gaap:AdditionalFinancialInformationDisclosureTextBlock" id="id3VybDovL2RvY3MudjEvZG9jOmVmYjU0M2QwOWIyODRmZWJhNGUzYTM3ODVhYzM5MjRlL3NlYzplZmI1NDNkMDliMjg0ZmViYTRlM2EzNzg1YWMzOTI0ZV80Ni9mcmFnOjdmMTgxOGJmZTMzMjQ5YjFhNzUyZTY4ZWEzNDI1M2Q5L3RleHRyZWdpb246N2YxODE4YmZlMzMyNDliMWE3NTJlNjhlYTM0MjUzZDlfMzQ5OA_916be856-3fd5-4c17-a1be-3725dd733074" continuedAt="i6738e821fb8a4c78b4347e6bba857a3d" escape="true"><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">3.

Our longevity and reputation in the school bus industry have made Blue Bird an iconic American brand. We distinguish ourselves from our principal competitors by dedicating our focus to the design, engineering, manufacture and sale of school buses, and related parts. As the only principal manufacturer of chassis and body production specifically designed for school bus applications, Blue Bird is recognized as an industry leader for school bus innovation, safety, product quality/reliability/durability, efficiency, and lower operating costs. In addition, Blue Bird is the market leader in alternative powered product offerings with its propane-powered, gasoline-powered, compressed natural gas ("CNG")-powered, and all-electric-powered school buses.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Blue Bird sells its buses and parts through an extensive network of U.S. and Canadian dealers that, in their territories, are exclusive to Blue Bird on Type C and Type D school buses.

The pandemic triggered a significant downturn in global commerce as early as February 2020 and the challenging market conditions continued through the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and may continue for an extended period of time. </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Supply chain disruptions significantly impacted our operations and results during the latter half of fiscal 2021 and continuing into the first quarter of fiscal 2022 as a result of higher inventory purchase costs, including freight costs incurred to expedite receipt of critical components, increased manufacturing inefficiencies and our inability to complete the production of buses to fulfill sales orders.  Specifically, management estimates that the sale of over 2,000 units was deferred from the latter months of fiscal 2021 and the first quarter of fiscal 2022 into subsequent periods as a result of the shortage of critical components that prevented the Company from initiating or completing, as applicable, the production process for certain units that were otherwise scheduled to be delivered to customers during these periods.  Including these units, the Company's backlog exceeded 4,200 and 4,800 units as of October&#160;2, 2021 and January&#160;1, 2022, respectively, as demand for our products remains strong, with no sales orders canceled as a result of delays in our production process.  </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company's increased purchase costs for certain of its raw materials during the pandemic have negatively impacted the gross profit recognized on sales, including during the second half of fiscal 2021 and continuing through the three months ended January&#160;1, 2022.  In response, the Company announced three sales price increases that apply to new sales orders and were intended to mitigate the impact of rising purchase costs on our operations and results. However, these price increases were not realized in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 as sales recorded during the quarter related to the backlog of orders that existed prior, and therefore were not subject, to the price increases, which is expected to continue through, at a minimum, the second quarter of fiscal 2022.  In general, management believes that such supply chain disruptions will continue in future periods and will materially impact our results if we are unable to i) produce during quarters having higher sales volumes and/or ii) pass along rising costs to our customers. Additionally, although we have not experienced any pervasive COVID-19 illnesses to-date, if we were to experience some form of outbreak within our facilities, </span></div><div style="height:42.75pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">18</span></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"/><div style="min-height:42.75pt;width:100%"><div><span><br/></span></div></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">we would take all appropriate measures to protect the health and safety of our employees, which could include a temporary halt in production.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The pandemic has resulted, and is likely to continue to result, in significant economic disruption and has adversely affected our business. We currently believe that it will continue to adversely impact our business throughout the second quarter of fiscal 2022 and perhaps beyond. Significant uncertainty exists concerning the magnitude of the impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the overall economy, both within the U.S. and globally. Accordingly, the duration of any demand reductions, production and supply chain disruptions, and related financial impacts, cannot be estimated at this time.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The continuing impacts from COVID-19 on the Company's operations in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 negatively affected our gross profit, income and cash flows.

Further detail and discussion of the fourth amendment and private placement transaction can be found in the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section of this Item 2.

Our actions may include reducing hiring activities, limiting discretionary spending, limiting spending on capital investment projects or other steps necessary to preserve adequate liquidity. We may also pursue raising additional capital via an equity or debt offering.

An effective dealer is capable of expanding revenues within a given school district by matching that district&#8217;s needs to our capabilities, offering options that would not otherwise be provided to the district. </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">&#8226;</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.5pt">Pricing</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">. Our products are sold to school districts throughout the U.S. and Canada. Each state and each Canadian province has its own set of regulations that governs the purchase of products, including school buses, by their school districts. We and our dealers must navigate these regulations, purchasing procedures, and the districts&#8217; specifications in order to reach mutually acceptable price terms.

Major fleets regularly compete against one another for existing accounts. Fleets are also continuously trying to win the business of school districts that operate their own transportation services. These activities can have either a positive or negative impact on our sales, depending on the brand preference of the fleet that wins the business. Major fleets also periodically review their fleet sizes and replacement patterns due to funding availability as well as the profitability of existing routes. These actions can impact total purchases by fleets in a given year. </span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">&#8226;</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.5pt">Seasonality.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> Historically, our sales have been subject to seasonal variation based on the school calendar with the peak season during our third and fourth fiscal quarters. Sales during the third and fourth fiscal quarters are typically greater than the first and second fiscal quarters due to the desire of municipalities to have any new buses that they order available to them at the beginning of the new school year. With the COVID-19 pandemic impact on school systems and the uncertainty regarding (i) in-person schooling schedules and duration and (ii) the severity and duration of ongoing supply chain constraints, seasonality has become unpredictable. Seasonality and variations from historical seasonality have impacted the comparison of results between fiscal periods. </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Factors Affecting Our Expenses and Other Items </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Our expenses and other line items on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are principally driven by the following factors: </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#8226;</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.5pt">Cost of goods sold</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">.

Our cost of goods sold may vary from period to period due to changes in sales volume, efforts by certain suppliers to pass through the economics associated with key commodities, fluctuations in freight costs, design changes with respect to specific components, design changes with respect to specific bus models, wage increases for plant labor, productivity of plant labor, delays in receiving materials and other logistical problems, and the impact of overhead items such as utilities. </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#8226;</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.5pt">Selling, general and administrative expenses</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">.

"Financial Statements (Unaudited)." are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. This Report also includes the following financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP ("non-GAAP"): &#8220;Adjusted EBITDA;&#8221; &#8220;Adjusted EBITDA Margin;&#8221; and &#8220;Free Cash Flow.&#8221; Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are financial metrics that are utilized by management and the board of directors to determine (a) the annual cash bonus payouts, if any, to be made to certain members of management based upon the terms of the Company&#8217;s Management Incentive Plan, and (b) whether the performance criteria have been met for the vesting of certain equity awards granted annually to certain members of management based upon the terms of the Company&#8217;s Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Additionally, consolidated EBITDA, which is an adjusted EBITDA metric defined by our Amended Credit Agreement that could differ from Adjusted EBITDA discussed above as the adjustments to the calculations are not uniform, is used to determine the (a) Company's ongoing compliance with several financial covenant requirements, including being utilized in the denominator of the calculation of the Total Net Leverage Ratio ("TNLR"), as and when applicable, and (b) the interest rate that is charged on outstanding borrowings in accordance with a pricing grid that is based upon the TNLR. Accordingly, management views these non-GAAP financial metrics as key for the above purposes and as a useful way to evaluate the performance of our operations as discussed further below.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income or loss prior to interest income; interest expense including the component of operating lease expense (which is presented as a single operating expense in selling, general and administrative expenses in our U.S. GAAP financial statements) that represents interest expense on lease liabilities; income taxes; and depreciation and amortization including the component of operating lease expense (which is presented as a single operating expense in selling, general and administrative expenses in our U.S. GAAP financial statements) that represents amortization charges on right-of-use lease assets; as adjusted for certain non-cash charges or credits that we may record on a recurring basis such as share-based compensation expense and unrealized gains or losses on certain derivative financial instruments; net gains or losses on the disposal of assets as well as certain charges such as (i) significant product design changes; (ii) transaction related costs; (iii) discrete expenses related to major cost cutting initiatives; or (iv) costs directly attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic. While certain of the charges that are added back in the Adjusted EBITDA calculation, such as transaction related costs and operational transformation and major product redesign initiatives, represent operating expenses that may be recorded in more than one annual period, the significant project or transaction giving rise to such expenses is not considered to be indicative of the Company&#8217;s normal operations. Accordingly, we believe that these, as well as the other credits and charges that comprise the amounts utilized in the determination of Adjusted EBITDA described above, should not be used in evaluating the Company&#8217;s ongoing annual operating performance. </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.

We use Free Cash Flow, and ratios based on Free Cash Flow, to conduct and evaluate our business because, although it is similar to cash flow from operations, we believe it is a more conservative measure of cash flow since purchases of fixed assets and intangible assets are a necessary component of ongoing operations.

The decrease is primarily volume driven, largely aligning with the decrease in revenue. The decrease due to volume was partially offset by price increases. The average cost of goods sold per unit for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was 3.8% higher compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2021 due to increases in manufacturing costs from several COVID-19 related factors including supply chain disruptions that resulted in higher purchase costs for components and freight, as well as created manufacturing inefficiencies. </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The $2.4 million, or 30.5%, increase in parts segment cost of goods sold for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2021 largely aligned with the increase in sales volume noted above, with slight variation due to product and channel mix.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Operating loss</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">. Operating loss was $2.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, an increase of $1.8 million, compared to operating loss of $0.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. Profitability was positively impacted by an increase of $1.7 million in gross profit as outlined in the revenue and cost of goods sold discussions that was more than offset by an increase of $3.5 million in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily due to (a) an increase in share-based compensation expense as a result of the accelerated vesting of all outstanding stock awards for two of the Company's former executives in connection with their retirements and (b) merit increases for all Company employees to partially or fully mitigate the impact of increasing inflation, both during the first quarter of fiscal 2022.  Additionally, selling, general and administrative expenses during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 benefited from actions taken by management to reduce labor costs and certain discretionary spending during the early months of the pandemic with no similar actions taken to reduce labor costs during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 given the competitiveness of the overall labor market primarily resulting from continuing labor shortages.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Interest expense</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">. Interest expense was $3.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, an increase of $1.2 million, or 59.7%, compared to $1.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the stated term loan interest rate from 4.0% at January&#160;2, 2021 to 6.0% at January&#160;1, 2022 as well as increased revolving credit facility borrowings outstanding during most of the first quarter of fiscal 2022 when compared with the same period in the previous year.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Income taxes</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">.

The continuing adverse impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic materially impacted our results in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, primarily resulting from significant supply chain disruptions that constrained our abilities to produce buses to fulfill sales orders. The continuing development and fluidity of the pandemic precludes any prediction as to the ultimate severity of the adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. See PART I, Item 1.A. "Risk Factors," of our 2021 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on December&#160;15, 2021, for a discussion of the material risks we believe we face particularly related to the COVID-19 pandemic.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The pandemic could cause a severe contraction in our profits and/or liquidity which could lead to issues complying with our Amended Credit Agreement covenants. Our primary financial covenants are (i) for fiscal 2022, minimum consolidated EBITDA, which is an adjusted EBITDA metric that could differ from Adjusted EBITDA appearing in the Company&#8217;s periodic filings on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q as the adjustments to the calculations are not uniform, at the end of each fiscal quarter for the consecutive four fiscal quarter period most recently then ending; (ii) for fiscal 2022 and through April 1, 2023, minimum liquidity at the end of each fiscal month; (iii) when applicable during fiscal 2022, minimum school bus units manufactured calculated on a three month trailing basis at the end of each fiscal month; and (iv) beginning in fiscal 2023 and thereafter, TNLR, defined as the ratio of (a) consolidated net debt to (b) consolidated EBITDA.  If we are not able to comply with such covenants, we may need to seek amendment for covenant relief or even refinance the debt to a "covenant lite" or "no covenant" structure. We cannot assure our investors that we would be successful in amending or refinancing the existing debt. An amendment or refinancing of our existing debt could lead to higher interest rates and possible up-front expenses not included in our historical financial statements.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On December 15, 2021, we issued and sold through a private placement transaction an aggregate 4,687,500 shares of our common stock at $16.00 per share.

This has resulted in our third and fourth fiscal quarters representing our two busiest quarters from a sales and production perspective, the latter ending on the Saturday closest to September 30. Our quarterly results of operations, cash flows, and liquidity have been, and are likely to continue to be, impacted by the seasonal patterns. Working capital has historically been a significant use of cash during the first fiscal quarter due to planned shutdowns and a significant source of cash generation in the fourth fiscal quarter. With the COVID-19 pandemic impact on school systems and the uncertainty regarding (i) in-person schooling schedules and duration and (ii) the severity and duration of ongoing supply chain constraints, seasonality and working capital trends have become unpredictable. Seasonality and variations from historical seasonality have impacted the comparison of working capital and liquidity results between fiscal periods.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div

BLUE BIRD CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.   Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation
Nature of Business
Blue Bird Body Company ("BBBC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blue Bird Corporation, was incorporated in 1958 and has manufactured, assembled and sold school buses to a variety of municipal, federal and commercial customers since 1927. The majority of BBBC's sales are made to an independent distributor network, which in turn sells buses to ultimate end users. References in these notes to condensed consolidated financial statements to "Blue Bird," the "Company," "we," "our," or "us" relate to Blue Bird Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, unless the context specifically indicates otherwise. We are headquartered in Macon, Georgia.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial reporting and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to September 30 with its quarters consisting of thirteen weeks in most years. The fiscal years ending October 1, 2022 ("fiscal 2022") and ended October 2, 2021 ("fiscal 2021") consist or consisted of 52 weeks.  The first quarters of fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 both included 13 weeks.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial results have been made. Such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data as of October 2, 2021 was derived from the Company's audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. For additional information, including the Company's significant accounting policies, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes as of and for the fiscal year ended October 2, 2021 as set forth in the Company's fiscal 2021 Form 10-K filed on December 15, 2021.
COVID-19
Towards the end of our second quarter of the fiscal year that ended October 3, 2020 ("fiscal 2020") and continuing through the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the novel coronavirus known as "COVID-19" spread throughout the world, resulting in a global pandemic. The pandemic has significantly impacted our financial results from the second half of fiscal 2020, continuing throughout the first quarter of fiscal 2022, causing, among other matters, reduced demand for school buses and major supply chain disruptions during portions of this period of time. The continuing development and fluidity of the pandemic and its trailing impact precludes any prediction as to the ultimate severity of the adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. A prolonged economic downturn resulting from the pandemic would likely have a material adverse impact on our financial results.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. At the date of the financial statements, these estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, and during the reporting period, these estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. For example, significant management judgments are required in determining excess, obsolete, or unsalable inventory; the allowance for doubtful accounts; potential impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets; and the accounting for self-insurance reserves, warranty reserves, pension obligations, income taxes, environmental liabilities and contingencies. Future events, including the extent and duration of COVID-19 related economic impacts, and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty, and, accordingly, the Company's accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company's operating environment changes. The
7
Company evaluates and updates its assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis and may employ outside experts to assist in the Company's evaluations. Actual results could differ from the estimates that the Company has used.
2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Company's significant accounting policies are described in the Company's fiscal 2021 Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on December 15, 2021. Our senior management has reviewed these significant accounting policies and related disclosures and determined that there were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies in the three months ended January 1, 2022.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
ASU 2020-04
On March 12, 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04,
Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting
, providing temporary guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform primarily resulting from the discontinuation of LIBOR (defined below), which was initially expected to occur on December 31, 2021. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 are elective and apply to all entities that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued.
ASU 2021-01
On January 7, 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01,
Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope
, which refines the scope of Accounting Standards Codification Topic ("ASC") 848,
Reference Rate Reform
, and clarifies some of its guidance as part of the FASB's ongoing monitoring of global reference rate reform activities. The ASU permits entities to elect certain optional expedients and exceptions when accounting for derivative contracts and certain hedging relationships affected by changes in the interest rates used for discounting cash flows, computing variation margin settlements, and calculating price alignment interest in connection with reference rate reform activities under way in global financial markets.
The above amendments are effective for all entities from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. An entity may elect to apply the amendments to contract modifications on a (i) full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020 or (ii) prospective basis from any date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020 through the date that the interim financial statements are issued or available to be issued.
On March 5, 2021, the Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. ("ICE") Benchmark Administration ("IBA"), the administrator of the United States Dollar London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR"), issued a statement, following the completion of a formal consultation process, reaffirming the preliminary announcement it made on November 30, 2020, to cease publication of  (i) 1 week and 2 month LIBOR subsequent to December 31, 2021 and (ii)  the overnight and 1, 3, 6 and 12 month LIBOR tenors subsequent to June 30, 2023. The IBA's statement regarding such cessation dates primarily resulted from a majority of LIBOR panel banks communicating to the IBA that they would be unwilling to continue contributing to the relevant LIBOR settings after such dates. As a result, the IBA determined that it would be unable to publish the relevant LIBOR settings on a representative basis after such dates. The United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA"), which regulates the IBA, confirmed that, based on information it received from LIBOR panel banks, it does not expect that any LIBOR settings will become unrepresentative before the announced cessation dates summarized above.
Currently, the Company's interest rate collar, which is not designated in a hedge accounting relationship, and Amended Credit Agreement (defined below) are the only contracts that reference an interest rate index (i.e., 3 month LIBOR) that is subject to the reference rate reform guidance included in the above amendments. While the termination date of the interest rate collar, September 30, 2022, occurs prior to the July 1, 2023 date on which the IBA will no longer publish 3 month LIBOR, the Amended Credit Agreement matures on September 13, 2023, approximately 2.5 months subsequent to such cessation date. However, as management does not currently forecast that the Company will have sufficient cash to fund the term loan borrowings that are expected to be outstanding under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement upon maturity, it is expecting to refinance such borrowings prior to maturity, with such refinancing likely to occur before the July 1, 2023 LIBOR cessation date. Therefore, it is highly likely that neither the interest rate collar nor Amended Credit Agreement will be modified to reflect the discontinuation of 3 month LIBOR effective July 1, 2023 and accordingly, the Company will not be required to decide whether or not to elect to adopt such amendments prior to or on December 31, 2022 (i.e., the last effective date for adopting the amendments). However, to the extent that either or both of the contracts are modified prior to December 31, 2022, the Company plans to adopt the amendments on a prospective basis by adjusting the derivative fair value and/or debt effective interest rate, as applicable, neither of which is expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

We are charged variable rates of interest on our indebtedness outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement (defined below) which exposes us to fluctuations in interest rates. On October 24, 2018, the Company entered into a
four-year
interest rate collar with a $
150.0
million notional value with an effective date of November 30, 2018. The collar was entered into in order to partially mitigate our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on our variable rate debt. The collar establishes a range whereby we will pay the counterparty if the three month LIBOR rate falls below the established floor rate of
1.5
%, and the counterparty will pay us if the three month LIBOR rate exceeds the ceiling rate of
3.3
%. The collar settles quarterly through the termination date of September 30, 2022. No payments or receipts are exchanged on the interest rate collar contract unless interest rates rise above or fall below the contracted ceiling or floor rates. During the three months ended January 1, 2022, the three month LIBOR rate fell below the established floor, which required us to make $
0.5
million in total cash payments to the counterparty.
Changes in the interest rate collar fair value are recorded in interest expense as the collar does not qualify for hedge accounting. At January 1, 2022, the fair value of the interest rate collar contract was $
1.2
million and is included in other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the interest rate collar is a Level 2 fair value measurement, based on quoted prices of similar items in active markets.
4.   Debt
On November 24, 2021, the Company executed a fourth amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 12, 2016; as amended by the first amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of September 13, 2018 (the "First Amended Credit Agreement"), the second amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of May 7, 2020 (the "Second Amended Credit Agreement"), and the third amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 4, 2020 (the "Third Amended Credit Agreement"); and as further amended by the fourth amendment (the "Fourth Amended Credit Agreement" and collectively, the "Amended Credit Agreement"). The Fourth Amended Credit Agreement, among other things, provides for certain temporary amendments to the Credit Agreement from the third amendment effective date through and including (a) April 1, 2023 (the "Amended Limited Availability Period") or (b) the first date on which BBBC (the "Borrower") elects to terminate the Amended Limited Availability Period, in each case, subject to (x) the absence of a default or event of default and (y) pro forma compliance with the financial covenant performance covenants under the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement.
With respect to the financial performance covenants, during the Amended Limited Availability Period for the fiscal quarters ending January 1, 2022 through October 1, 2022, the Total Net Leverage Ratio ("TNLR") requirement is not applicable, although it continues to impact the interest rate that is charged on outstanding borrowings as discussed below.
Instead, the minimum consolidated EBITDA that the Company is required to maintain during the Amended Limited Availability Period was updated to include fiscal 2022 as set forth in the table below (in millions):

However, in the event that Borrower elects to terminate the Amended Limited Availability Period in fiscal 2022, the maximum TNLR permitted is
3.50
x.
The minimum liquidity (in the form of undrawn availability under the revolving credit facility and unrestricted cash and cash equivalents) that the Company must maintain during the Amended Limited Availability Period was amended as set forth in the table below (in millions):

Additionally, a new financial performance covenant was added in the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement, requiring that school bus units manufactured by the Company ("Units") not fall below the pre-set thresholds set forth in the table below on a three month trailing basis ("Units Covenant").
The Units Covenant is triggered only if the Company's liquidity for the most-recently ended fiscal month is less than $
50
million during the Amended Limited Availability Period:

If the Units during any three fiscal month period set forth above is less than the minimum required by the Units Covenant, Borrower may elect to carry forward up to
50
% of certain applicable excess Units to satisfy the Units Covenant requirement.  However, Borrower may not make such election in two consecutive three fiscal month periods.
The pricing grid in the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement, which is based on the TNLR, is determined in accordance with the amended pricing matrix set forth below:

During the Amended Limited Availability Period, the applicable rate for outstanding revolving loans is the sum of the rate determined by the administrative agent in accordance with the pricing grid set forth above, plus
0.50
%.
Additional allowances were made in the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement for the Company to issue or incur up to $
100.0
million of qualified equity interests issued by the Company, unsecured subordinated indebtedness or unsecured convertible indebtedness (collectively, "Junior Capital").  Upon the issuance or incurrence of any Junior Capital, the Company is required to prepay the outstanding revolving loans (with no permanent reduction in the revolving commitments) in an amount equal to the lesser of (a)
100
% of the net proceeds from such Junior Capital and (b) the aggregate of revolving exposures then outstanding.  Prior to the initial issuance or incurrence of any Junior Capital, any issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of credit during the Amended Limited Availability Period may not cause the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Facility principal to exceed $
110.0
million ("Availability Cap").  Following the issuance and sale of $
75.0
million of common stock in a private placement transaction on December 15, 2021 (see Note 11 for further details), the Availability Cap was permanently reduced to $
100.0
million.
For the duration of the Amended Limited Availability Period, the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement sets forth additional monthly reporting requirements in connection with the manufactured school bus units required by the financial performance covenants, when applicable.
The Company incurred approximately $
2.5
million in lender fees and other issuance costs relating to the fourth amendment. Of such total, approximately $
1.1
million and $
0.8
million was capitalized within other assets and long-term debt (as a contra-balance), respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized as an adjustment to interest expense on a straight-line basis and utilizing the effective interest method, respectively, until maturity of the Amended Credit Agreement. The remaining approximate $
0.5
million was recorded to loss on debt modification on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
In conjunction with executing the fourth amendment, previously capitalized lender fees and other issuance costs incurred in prior periods totaling approximately $
0.1
million were also expensed to loss on debt modification on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Term debt consisted of the following at the dates indicated:
(in thousands of dollars)
January 1, 2022
October 2, 2021
2023 term loan, net of deferred financing costs of $
2,469
and $
2,027

Long-term debt, net of current portion
$

$

Term loans are recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at the unpaid principal balance, and are not subject to fair value measurement; however, given the variable rates on the loans, the Company estimates that the unpaid principal balance approximates fair value. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, the term loans would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. At January 1, 2022 and October 2, 2021, $
162.7
million and $
166.5
million, respectively, were outstanding on the term loans.
At January 1, 2022 and October 2, 2021, the stated interest rates on the term loans were
6.0
% and
4.0
%, respectively. At January 1, 2022 and October 2, 2021, the weighted-average annual effective interest rates for the term loans were
7.2
% and
6.0
%, respectively, which includes amortization of the deferred financing costs and interest relating to the interest rate collar, as applicable.
At January 1, 2022, $
6.3
million of letters of credit were outstanding, which reduces the availability on the revolving line of credit. $
5.0
million of borrowings were outstanding on the revolving credit facility; therefore, the Company would have been able to borrow $
88.7
million on the revolving line of credit.
12
Interest expense on all indebtedness was $
3.1
million and $
1.9
million for the three months ended January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, respectively.
The schedule of remaining principal payments through maturity for the term loans is as follows:

5.   Income Taxes
Income tax provisions for interim periods are based on estimated annual income tax rates, adjusted to reflect the effects of any significant infrequent or unusual items that are required to be discretely recognized within the current interim period. The effective tax rates in the periods presented are largely based upon the annual forecasted pre-tax earnings mix and allocation of certain expenses in various taxing jurisdictions where the Company conducts its business, primarily in the United States of America ("U.S."). In periods where our operating income approximates or is equal to break-even, the effective tax rates for quarter-to-date and full-year periods may not be meaningful due to discrete period items.
Three Months
The effective tax rate for the three months ended January 1, 2022 was
35.6
%, which differed from the statutory federal income tax rate of
21
%. The difference is mainly due to normal tax rate items, including impacts from state taxes and federal and state tax credits (net of valuation allowances), which was partially offset by discrete period tax expense resulting from net non-deductible compensation expenses and other tax adjustments.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended January 2, 2021 was
24.7
%, which differed from the statutory federal tax rate of
21
%. The difference is mainly due to normal tax rate items, such as the impact from state taxes.
6.   Guarantees, Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
At January 1, 2022, the Company had a number of product liability and other cases pending. Management believes that, considering the Company's insurance coverage and its intention to vigorously defend its positions, the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements.
Environmental
The Company is subject to a variety of environmental regulations relating to the use, storage, discharge and disposal of hazardous materials used in its manufacturing processes. Failure by the Company to comply with present and future regulations could subject it to future liabilities. In addition, such regulations could require the Company to acquire costly equipment or to incur other significant expenses to comply with environmental regulations. The Company is currently not involved in any material environmental proceedings and therefore, management believes that the resolution of pending environmental matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements.
Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, we may provide guarantees for certain transactions entered into by our dealers. At January 1, 2022, we had a $
3.0
million guarantee outstanding that relates to a guarantee of dealer indebtedness for a term loan with remaining maturity up to
1.0
year. The $
3.0
million represents the estimated maximum amount we would be required to pay upon default of all guaranteed indebtedness, and we believe the likelihood of required performance to be remote. At January 1, 2022, $
0.1
million was included in other current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the estimated fair value of the guarantee.

Sale of Common Stock
On December 15, 2021, the Company issued and sold through a private placement transaction an aggregate
4,687,500
shares of its common stock at $
16.00
per share ("Private Placement") to Coliseum Capital Partners, L.P. and Blackwell Partners LLC - Series A (collectively, "Coliseum"). Subsequent to the sale, Coliseum owns an approximate
15
% equity interest in the Company. In connection with the purchase of the shares, Coliseum received customary registration rights and the Company added Adam Gray of Coliseum as a Class II director. The Company used the net proceeds (approximately $
74.8
million) from the Private Placement to repay outstanding revolving loans as required by the terms of the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement.

Executive Overview
Blue Bird is the leading independent designer and manufacturer of school buses. Our longevity and reputation in the school bus industry have made Blue Bird an iconic American brand. We distinguish ourselves from our principal competitors by dedicating our focus to the design, engineering, manufacture and sale of school buses, and related parts. As the only principal manufacturer of chassis and body production specifically designed for school bus applications, Blue Bird is recognized as an industry leader for school bus innovation, safety, product quality/reliability/durability, efficiency, and lower operating costs. In addition, Blue Bird is the market leader in alternative powered product offerings with its propane-powered, gasoline-powered, compressed natural gas ("CNG")-powered, and all-electric-powered school buses.
Blue Bird sells its buses and parts through an extensive network of U.S. and Canadian dealers that, in their territories, are exclusive to Blue Bird on Type C and Type D school buses. Blue Bird also sells directly to major fleet operators, the U.S. Government, state governments, and authorized dealers in a number of foreign countries.
Throughout this Report, we refer to the fiscal year ending October 1, 2022 as "fiscal 2022," the fiscal year ended October 2, 2021 as "fiscal 2021" and the fiscal year ended October 3, 2020 as "fiscal 2020."  There will be or were 52 weeks in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively, and there were 53 weeks in fiscal 2020.  The first quarters of fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 both included 13 weeks.
Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business
Beginning in our second fiscal quarter of fiscal 2020, the novel coronavirus known as "COVID-19" began to spread throughout the world, resulting in a global pandemic. The pandemic triggered a significant downturn in global commerce as early as February 2020 and the challenging market conditions continued through the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and may continue for an extended period of time.
Supply chain disruptions significantly impacted our operations and results during the latter half of fiscal 2021 and continuing into the first quarter of fiscal 2022 as a result of higher inventory purchase costs, including freight costs incurred to expedite receipt of critical components, increased manufacturing inefficiencies and our inability to complete the production of buses to fulfill sales orders.  Specifically, management estimates that the sale of over 2,000 units was deferred from the latter months of fiscal 2021 and the first quarter of fiscal 2022 into subsequent periods as a result of the shortage of critical components that prevented the Company from initiating or completing, as applicable, the production process for certain units that were otherwise scheduled to be delivered to customers during these periods.  Including these units, the Company's backlog exceeded 4,200 and 4,800 units as of October 2, 2021 and January 1, 2022, respectively, as demand for our products remains strong, with no sales orders canceled as a result of delays in our production process.
The Company's increased purchase costs for certain of its raw materials during the pandemic have negatively impacted the gross profit recognized on sales, including during the second half of fiscal 2021 and continuing through the three months ended January 1, 2022.  In response, the Company announced three sales price increases that apply to new sales orders and were intended to mitigate the impact of rising purchase costs on our operations and results. However, these price increases were not realized in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 as sales recorded during the quarter related to the backlog of orders that existed prior, and therefore were not subject, to the price increases, which is expected to continue through, at a minimum, the second quarter of fiscal 2022.  In general, management believes that such supply chain disruptions will continue in future periods and will materially impact our results if we are unable to i) produce during quarters having higher sales volumes and/or ii) pass along rising costs to our customers. Additionally, although we have not experienced any pervasive COVID-19 illnesses to-date, if we were to experience some form of outbreak within our facilities,

we would take all appropriate measures to protect the health and safety of our employees, which could include a temporary halt in production.
The pandemic has resulted, and is likely to continue to result, in significant economic disruption and has adversely affected our business. We currently believe that it will continue to adversely impact our business throughout the second quarter of fiscal 2022 and perhaps beyond. Significant uncertainty exists concerning the magnitude of the impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the overall economy, both within the U.S. and globally. Accordingly, the duration of any demand reductions, production and supply chain disruptions, and related financial impacts, cannot be estimated at this time.
The continuing impacts from COVID-19 on the Company's operations in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 negatively affected our gross profit, income and cash flows. We continue to monitor and assess the level of future customer demand, the ability of school boards to make decisions regarding maintaining normal in-person learning in the foreseeable future, the ability of suppliers to resume and/or maintain operations and to provide parts and supplies in sufficient quantities to meet our production needs, the ability of our employees to continue to work, and our ability to maintain continuous production as we plan for and execute during the remainder of fiscal 2022 and beyond. See PART I, Item 1.A. "Risk Factors," of our 2021 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on December 15, 2021, for a discussion of the material risks we believe we face particularly related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Company has also taken actions to control spending and secure adequate liquidity, including headcount rationalization, changes to the minimum required financial covenants via execution of a fourth amendment to our Credit Agreement in November 2021, and raising $75.0 million of proceeds through the issuance and sale of an aggregate 4,687,500 shares of common stock at $16.00 per share in a private placement transaction on December 15, 2021. Further detail and discussion of the fourth amendment and private placement transaction can be found in the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section of this Item 2. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this Report. Even with adequate liquidity, we are evaluating and considering further actions to reduce costs and spending across our organization to be responsive to potential longer-term impacts on our business from the pandemic. Our actions may include reducing hiring activities, limiting discretionary spending, limiting spending on capital investment projects or other steps necessary to preserve adequate liquidity. We may also pursue raising additional capital via an equity or debt offering. We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may need to take further actions required by federal, state or local authorities, or enact measures we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers and shareholders. For further details and discussion about our liquidity, refer to the following "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section of this Item 2. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this Report.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates, Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Blue Bird evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis, based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.
The Company's accounting policies that we believe are the  most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are described in the Company's 2021 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on December 15, 2021, under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of  Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates," which description is incorporated herein by reference. Our senior management has reviewed these critical accounting policies and related disclosures and determined that there were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies during the three months ended January 1, 2022.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for a discussion of new and recently adopted accounting pronouncements.

Factors Affecting Our Revenues
Our revenues are driven primarily by the following factors:
•
Property tax revenues
. Property tax revenues are one of the major sources of funding for school districts, and therefore new school buses. Property tax revenues are a function of land and building prices, relying on assessments of property value by state or county assessors and millage rates voted by the local electorate.
•
Student enrollment and delivery mechanisms for learning.
Increases or decreases in the number of school bus riders have a direct impact on school district demand. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and evolving protocols for social distancing and public health concerns, the future form of educational delivery remains uncertain, and increased remote learning could reasonably be expected to decrease the number of school bus riders.
•
Revenue mix
. We are able to charge more for certain of our products (e.g., Type C propane-powered school buses, electric-powered buses, Type D buses, and buses with higher option content) than other products. The mix of products sold in any fiscal period can directly impact our revenues for the period.
•
Strength of the dealer network
. We rely on our dealers, as well as a small number of major fleet operators, to be the direct point of contact with school districts and their purchasing agents. An effective dealer is capable of expanding revenues within a given school district by matching that district's needs to our capabilities, offering options that would not otherwise be provided to the district.
•
Pricing
. Our products are sold to school districts throughout the U.S. and Canada. Each state and each Canadian province has its own set of regulations that governs the purchase of products, including school buses, by their school districts. We and our dealers must navigate these regulations, purchasing procedures, and the districts' specifications in order to reach mutually acceptable price terms. Pricing may or may not be favorable to us, depending upon a number of factors impacting purchasing decisions.
•
Buying patterns of major fleets
. Major fleets regularly compete against one another for existing accounts. Fleets are also continuously trying to win the business of school districts that operate their own transportation services. These activities can have either a positive or negative impact on our sales, depending on the brand preference of the fleet that wins the business. Major fleets also periodically review their fleet sizes and replacement patterns due to funding availability as well as the profitability of existing routes. These actions can impact total purchases by fleets in a given year.
•
Seasonality.
Historically, our sales have been subject to seasonal variation based on the school calendar with the peak season during our third and fourth fiscal quarters. Sales during the third and fourth fiscal quarters are typically greater than the first and second fiscal quarters due to the desire of municipalities to have any new buses that they order available to them at the beginning of the new school year. With the COVID-19 pandemic impact on school systems and the uncertainty regarding (i) in-person schooling schedules and duration and (ii) the severity and duration of ongoing supply chain constraints, seasonality has become unpredictable. Seasonality and variations from historical seasonality have impacted the comparison of results between fiscal periods.
Factors Affecting Our Expenses and Other Items
Our expenses and other line items on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are principally driven by the following factors:
•
Cost of goods sold
. The components of our cost of goods sold consist of material costs (principally powertrain components, steel and rubber, as well as aluminum and copper) including freight costs, labor expense, and overhead. Our cost of goods sold may vary from period to period due to changes in sales volume, efforts by certain suppliers to pass through the economics associated with key commodities, fluctuations in freight costs, design changes with respect to specific components, design changes with respect to specific bus models, wage increases for plant labor, productivity of plant labor, delays in receiving materials and other logistical problems, and the impact of overhead items such as utilities.
•
Selling, general and administrative expenses
. Our selling, general and administrative expenses include costs associated with our selling and marketing efforts, engineering, centralized finance, human resources, purchasing, information technology services, along with other administrative matters and functions. In most instances, other than direct costs associated with sales and marketing programs, the principal component of these costs is salary expense. Changes from period to period are typically driven by the number of our employees, as well as by merit increases provided to experienced personnel.
•
Interest expense
. Our interest expense relates to costs associated with our debt instruments and reflects both the amount of indebtedness and the interest rate that we are required to pay on our debt. Interest expense also includes unrealized gains or
20
losses from interest rate hedges, if any, and changes in the fair value of interest rate derivatives not designated in hedge accounting relationships, if any, as well as expenses related to debt guarantees, if any.
•
Income taxes
. We make estimates of the amounts to recognize for income taxes in each tax jurisdiction in which we operate. In addition, provisions are established for withholding taxes related to the transfer of cash between jurisdictions and for uncertain tax positions taken.
•
Other income/expense, net.
This balance includes periodic pension expense or income as well as gains or losses on foreign currency, if any. Other immaterial amounts not associated with operating expenses may also be included in this balance.
•
Equity in net loss of non-consolidated affiliate
. We include in this line item our 50% share of net income or loss from our investment in Micro Bird Holdings, Inc., our unconsolidated Canadian joint venture.
Key Non-GAAP Financial Measures We Use to Evaluate Our Performance
The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report in Item 1. "Financial Statements (Unaudited)." are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. This Report also includes the following financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP ("non-GAAP"): "Adjusted EBITDA;" "Adjusted EBITDA Margin;" and "Free Cash Flow." Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are financial metrics that are utilized by management and the board of directors to determine (a) the annual cash bonus payouts, if any, to be made to certain members of management based upon the terms of the Company's Management Incentive Plan, and (b) whether the performance criteria have been met for the vesting of certain equity awards granted annually to certain members of management based upon the terms of the Company's Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Additionally, consolidated EBITDA, which is an adjusted EBITDA metric defined by our Amended Credit Agreement that could differ from Adjusted EBITDA discussed above as the adjustments to the calculations are not uniform, is used to determine the (a) Company's ongoing compliance with several financial covenant requirements, including being utilized in the denominator of the calculation of the Total Net Leverage Ratio ("TNLR"), as and when applicable, and (b) the interest rate that is charged on outstanding borrowings in accordance with a pricing grid that is based upon the TNLR. Accordingly, management views these non-GAAP financial metrics as key for the above purposes and as a useful way to evaluate the performance of our operations as discussed further below.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income or loss prior to interest income; interest expense including the component of operating lease expense (which is presented as a single operating expense in selling, general and administrative expenses in our U.S. GAAP financial statements) that represents interest expense on lease liabilities; income taxes; and depreciation and amortization including the component of operating lease expense (which is presented as a single operating expense in selling, general and administrative expenses in our U.S. GAAP financial statements) that represents amortization charges on right-of-use lease assets; as adjusted for certain non-cash charges or credits that we may record on a recurring basis such as share-based compensation expense and unrealized gains or losses on certain derivative financial instruments; net gains or losses on the disposal of assets as well as certain charges such as (i) significant product design changes; (ii) transaction related costs; (iii) discrete expenses related to major cost cutting initiatives; or (iv) costs directly attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic. While certain of the charges that are added back in the Adjusted EBITDA calculation, such as transaction related costs and operational transformation and major product redesign initiatives, represent operating expenses that may be recorded in more than one annual period, the significant project or transaction giving rise to such expenses is not considered to be indicative of the Company's normal operations. Accordingly, we believe that these, as well as the other credits and charges that comprise the amounts utilized in the determination of Adjusted EBITDA described above, should not be used in evaluating the Company's ongoing annual operating performance.
We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not measures of performance defined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The measures are used as a supplement to U.S. GAAP results in evaluating certain aspects of our business, as described below.
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful to investors in evaluating our performance because the measures consider the performance of our ongoing operations, excluding decisions made with respect to capital investment, financing, and certain other significant initiatives or transactions as outlined in the preceding paragraphs. We believe the non-GAAP measures offer additional financial metrics that, when coupled with the U.S. GAAP results and the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of our results of operations and the factors and trends affecting our business.
21
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin should not be considered as alternatives to net income or loss as an indicator of our performance or as alternatives to any other measure prescribed by U.S. GAAP as there are limitations to using such non-GAAP measures. Although we believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may enhance an evaluation of our operating performance based on recent revenue generation and product/overhead cost control because they exclude the impact of prior decisions made about capital investment, financing, and certain other significant initiatives or transactions, (i) other companies in Blue Bird's industry may define Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin differently than we do and, as a result, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in Blue Bird's industry, and (ii) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin exclude certain financial information that some may consider important in evaluating our performance.
We compensate for these limitations by providing disclosure of the differences between Adjusted EBITDA and U.S. GAAP results, including providing a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP results, to enable investors to perform their own analysis of our ongoing operating results.
Our measure of Free Cash Flow is used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and it should not be relied upon to the exclusion of U.S. GAAP financial measures. Free Cash Flow reflects an additional way of evaluating our liquidity that, when viewed with our U.S. GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our cash flows. We strongly encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
We define Free Cash Flow as total cash provided by/used in operating activities as adjusted for net cash paid for the acquisition of fixed assets and intangible assets. We use Free Cash Flow, and ratios based on Free Cash Flow, to conduct and evaluate our business because, although it is similar to cash flow from operations, we believe it is a more conservative measure of cash flow since purchases of fixed assets and intangible assets are a necessary component of ongoing operations. Accordingly, Free Cash Flow will be less than operating cash flows.
Our Segments
We manage our business in two operating segments, which are also our reportable segments: (i) the Bus segment, which involves the design, engineering, manufacture and sales of school buses and extended warranties; and (ii) the Parts segment, which includes the sale of replacement bus parts. Financial information is reported on the basis that it is used internally by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. The President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company has been identified as the CODM. Management evaluates the segments based primarily upon revenues and gross profit.

Net sales
. Net sales were $129.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 0.9%, compared to $130.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The slight decrease in net sales is attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused supply chain constraints that have limited the availability of certain critical components and thus, limited the number of buses the Company could produce and deliver.
Bus sales decreased $5.4 million, or 4.6%, reflecting a decrease in units booked, which was partially offset by higher sales prices per unit. In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, 1,149 units were booked compared to 1,255 units booked for the same period in fiscal 2021. The decrease in Bus revenue and volumes reflects the constraints in the Company's ability to produce and deliver busses due to COVID-19 driven shortages of critical components. The 4.2% increase in unit price for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the same period in fiscal 2021 mainly reflects product and customer mix changes.
Parts sales increased $4.2 million, or 33.2%, for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2021. This increase is primarily attributed to (a) more schools offering in-person learning during the 2021/2022 school year when compared with the 2020/2021 school year, which increased school bus units in operation and thus increased bus repair and maintenance activities and (b) pricing actions taken by management to offset increases in purchased part costs.
23
Cost of goods sold
. Total cost of goods sold was $113.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, a decrease of $2.9 million, or 2.5%, compared to $116.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. As a percentage of net sales, total cost of goods sold improved from 88.9% to 87.5%.
Bus segment cost of goods sold decreased $5.3 million, or 4.9%, for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the same period in fiscal 2021. The decrease is primarily volume driven, largely aligning with the decrease in revenue. The decrease due to volume was partially offset by price increases. The average cost of goods sold per unit for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was 3.8% higher compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2021 due to increases in manufacturing costs from several COVID-19 related factors including supply chain disruptions that resulted in higher purchase costs for components and freight, as well as created manufacturing inefficiencies.
The $2.4 million, or 30.5%, increase in parts segment cost of goods sold for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2021 largely aligned with the increase in sales volume noted above, with slight variation due to product and channel mix.
Operating loss
. Operating loss was $2.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, an increase of $1.8 million, compared to operating loss of $0.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. Profitability was positively impacted by an increase of $1.7 million in gross profit as outlined in the revenue and cost of goods sold discussions that was more than offset by an increase of $3.5 million in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily due to (a) an increase in share-based compensation expense as a result of the accelerated vesting of all outstanding stock awards for two of the Company's former executives in connection with their retirements and (b) merit increases for all Company employees to partially or fully mitigate the impact of increasing inflation, both during the first quarter of fiscal 2022.  Additionally, selling, general and administrative expenses during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 benefited from actions taken by management to reduce labor costs and certain discretionary spending during the early months of the pandemic with no similar actions taken to reduce labor costs during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 given the competitiveness of the overall labor market primarily resulting from continuing labor shortages.
Interest expense
. Interest expense was $3.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, an increase of $1.2 million, or 59.7%, compared to $1.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the stated term loan interest rate from 4.0% at January 2, 2021 to 6.0% at January 1, 2022 as well as increased revolving credit facility borrowings outstanding during most of the first quarter of fiscal 2022 when compared with the same period in the previous year.
Income taxes
. We recorded income tax benefit of $1.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to income tax benefit of $0.5 million for the same period in fiscal 2021.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended January 1, 2022 was 35.6%, which differed from the statutory federal income tax rate of 21%. The difference is mainly due to normal tax rate items, including impacts from state taxes and federal and state tax credits (net of valuation allowances), which was partially offset by discrete period tax expense resulting from net non-deductible compensation expenses and other tax adjustments.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended January 2, 2021 was 24.7%, which differed from the statutory federal tax rate of 21%. The difference is mainly due to normal tax rate items, such as the impact from state taxes.
Adjusted EBITDA
. Adjusted EBITDA was $3.6 million, or 2.8% of net sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 37.7%, compared to $5.8 million, or 4.4% of net sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA primarily results from the  $2.5 million increase in net loss as a result of the factors discussed above as well as a $0.9 million increase in equity in net loss of non-consolidated affiliate, which was also significantly impacted by supply chain disruptions during the first quarter of fiscal 2022.  This increase in net loss was partially offset by a $0.3 million net increase in the items comprising the adjustments within the Adjusted EBITDA calculation, the most significant of which (interest expense, income tax benefit and share-based compensation) are discussed above.

25
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from its operations, available cash and cash equivalents and borrowings under its credit facility. At January 1, 2022, the Company had $4.1 million of available cash (net of outstanding checks) and $88.7 million of additional borrowings available under the revolving line of credit portion of its credit facility. The Company's revolving line of credit is available for working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.
Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement
On November 24, 2021, the Company executed a fourth amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 12, 2016; as amended by the first amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of September 13, 2018 (the "First Amended Credit Agreement"), the second amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of May 7, 2020 (the "Second Amended Credit Agreement"), and the third amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 4, 2020 (the "Third Amended Credit Agreement"); and as further amended by the fourth amendment (the "Fourth Amended Credit Agreement" and collectively, the "Amended Credit Agreement"). The Fourth Amended Credit Agreement, among other things, provides for certain temporary amendments to the Credit Agreement from the third amendment effective date through and including (a) April 1, 2023 (the "Amended Limited Availability Period") or (b) the first date on which Blue Bird Body Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Borrower"), elects to terminate the Amended Limited Availability Period, in each case, subject to (x) the absence of a default or event of default and (y) pro forma compliance with the financial covenant performance covenants under the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement.
With respect to the financial performance covenants, during the Amended Limited Availability Period for the fiscal quarters ending January 1, 2022 through October 1, 2022, the TNLR requirement is not applicable, although it continues to impact the interest rate that is charged on outstanding borrowings as discussed below.  Instead, the minimum consolidated EBITDA that the Company is required to maintain during the Amended Limited Availability Period was updated to include fiscal 2022 as set forth in the table below (in millions):
Period
Minimum Consolidated EBITDA
Fiscal quarter ending January 1, 2022
$14.5
Fiscal quarter ending April 2, 2022
$(4.5)
Fiscal quarter ending July 2, 2022
$(6.8)
Fiscal quarter ending October 1, 2022
$20.0
However, in the event that Borrower elects to terminate the Amended Limited Availability Period in fiscal 2022, the maximum TNLR permitted is 3.50x.
The minimum liquidity (in the form of undrawn availability under the revolving credit facility and unrestricted cash and cash equivalents) that the Company must maintain during the Amended Limited Availability Period was amended as set forth in the table below (in millions):
Period
Minimum Liquidity
Fourth amendment effective date through January 1, 2022

January 2, 2022 through April 2, 2022
$5.0
April 3, 2022 through July 2, 2022
$15.0
Thereafter
$20.0
26
Additionally, a new financial performance covenant was added in the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement, requiring that school bus units manufactured by the Company ("Units") not fall below the pre-set thresholds set forth in the table below on a three month trailing basis ("Units Covenant").
The Units Covenant is triggered only if the Company's liquidity for the most-recently ended fiscal month is less than $50 million during the Amended Limited Availability Period:

Three month period ending August 27, 2022
2,199
Three month period ending October 1, 2021
2,306
If the Units during any three fiscal month period set forth above is less than the minimum required by the Units Covenant, Borrower may elect to carry forward up to 50% of certain applicable excess Units to satisfy the Units Covenant requirement.  However, Borrower may not make such election in two consecutive three fiscal month periods.
The pricing grid in the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement, which is based on the TNLR, is determined in accordance with the amended pricing matrix set forth below:

During the Amended Limited Availability Period, the applicable rate for outstanding revolving loans is the sum of the rate determined by the administrative agent in accordance with the pricing grid set forth above, plus 0.50%.
Additional allowances were made in the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement for the Company to issue or incur up to $100.0 million of qualified equity interests issued by the Company, unsecured subordinated indebtedness or unsecured convertible indebtedness (collectively, "Junior Capital").  Upon the issuance or incurrence of any Junior Capital, the Company is required to prepay the outstanding revolving loans (with no permanent reduction in the revolving commitments) in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) 100% of the net proceeds from such Junior Capital and (b) the aggregate of revolving exposures then outstanding.  Prior to the initial issuance or incurrence of any Junior Capital, any issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of credit during the Amended Limited Availability Period may not cause the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Facility principal to exceed $110.0 million ("Availability Cap").  Following the issuance and sale of $75.0 million of common stock in a private placement transaction on December 15, 2021 (see further discussion below), the Availability Cap was permanently reduced to $100.0 million.
For the duration of the Amended Limited Availability Period, the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement sets forth additional monthly reporting requirements in connection with the manufactured school bus units required by the financial performance covenants, when applicable.
Detailed descriptions of the Credit Agreement as well as the First, Second, and Third Amended Credit Agreements are set forth under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources"

contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 2, 2021, filed with the SEC on December 15, 2021.
At January 1, 2022, the Borrower and the guarantors under the Amended Credit Agreement were in compliance with all covenants.
Short-Term and Long-Term Liquidity Requirements
Our ability to make principal and interest payments on borrowings under our credit facilities and our ability to fund planned capital expenditures will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other conditions. The continuing adverse impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic materially impacted our results in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, primarily resulting from significant supply chain disruptions that constrained our abilities to produce buses to fulfill sales orders. The continuing development and fluidity of the pandemic precludes any prediction as to the ultimate severity of the adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. See PART I, Item 1.A. "Risk Factors," of our 2021 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on December 15, 2021, for a discussion of the material risks we believe we face particularly related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The pandemic could cause a severe contraction in our profits and/or liquidity which could lead to issues complying with our Amended Credit Agreement covenants. Our primary financial covenants are (i) for fiscal 2022, minimum consolidated EBITDA, which is an adjusted EBITDA metric that could differ from Adjusted EBITDA appearing in the Company's periodic filings on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q as the adjustments to the calculations are not uniform, at the end of each fiscal quarter for the consecutive four fiscal quarter period most recently then ending; (ii) for fiscal 2022 and through April 1, 2023, minimum liquidity at the end of each fiscal month; (iii) when applicable during fiscal 2022, minimum school bus units manufactured calculated on a three month trailing basis at the end of each fiscal month; and (iv) beginning in fiscal 2023 and thereafter, TNLR, defined as the ratio of (a) consolidated net debt to (b) consolidated EBITDA.  If we are not able to comply with such covenants, we may need to seek amendment for covenant relief or even refinance the debt to a "covenant lite" or "no covenant" structure. We cannot assure our investors that we would be successful in amending or refinancing the existing debt. An amendment or refinancing of our existing debt could lead to higher interest rates and possible up-front expenses not included in our historical financial statements.
On December 15, 2021, we issued and sold through a private placement transaction an aggregate 4,687,500 shares of our common stock at $16.00 per share. The approximate $74.8 million of net proceeds that we received from this transaction were used to repay outstanding revolving loans as required by the terms of the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement.  See Note 11 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for additional information regarding this transaction.
To increase our liquidity in future periods, we may pursue raising additional capital via an equity or debt offering as we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 with the SEC in November 2021 that was declared effective in December 2021. However, we cannot assure our investors that we would be successful in raising this additional capital, which could also lead to increased expense and larger up-front fees when compared with our historical financial statements.
Seasonality
Historically, our business has been highly seasonal with school districts buying their new school buses so that they will be available for use on the first day of the school year, typically in mid-August to early September. This has resulted in our third and fourth fiscal quarters representing our two busiest quarters from a sales and production perspective, the latter ending on the Saturday closest to September 30. Our quarterly results of operations, cash flows, and liquidity have been, and are likely to continue to be, impacted by the seasonal patterns. Working capital has historically been a significant use of cash during the first fiscal quarter due to planned shutdowns and a significant source of cash generation in the fourth fiscal quarter. With the COVID-19 pandemic impact on school systems and the uncertainty regarding (i) in-person schooling schedules and duration and (ii) the severity and duration of ongoing supply chain constraints, seasonality and working capital trends have become unpredictable. Seasonality and variations from historical seasonality have impacted the comparison of working capital and liquidity results between fiscal periods.

Total cash used in operating activities
Cash flows used in operating activities totaled $33.1 million for the three months ended January 1, 2022, as compared to $11.5 million for the three months ended January 2, 2021. The $21.6 million increase in cash used was primarily attributed to a $2.5 million increase in net loss coupled with a $19.5 million net difference (use of cash) from the impacts of changes in working capital, other assets and accrued expenses between fiscal periods.
Total cash used in investing activities
Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $1.6 million for the three months ended January 1, 2022, as compared to $3.3 million for the three months ended January 2, 2021. The $1.7 million decrease was due to a reduction in spending on fixed assets.
Total cash provided by (used in) financing activities
Cash flows provided by financing activities totaled $27.0 million for the three months ended January 1, 2022, as compared to $5.8 million of cash flows used in financing activities for the three months ended January 2, 2021. The $32.8 million increase between fiscal periods was primarily attributed to $75.0 million of proceeds received from the issuance and sale of common stock in a private placement transaction that was partially offset by the repayment of $40.0 million of revolving credit facility borrowings, both during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 with no similar activity in the corresponding period of the previous year.
Free cash flow
Management believes the non-GAAP measurement of Free Cash Flow, defined as net cash used in operating activities less cash paid for fixed assets and acquired intangible assets, fairly represents the Company's ability to generate surplus cash that could fund activities not in the ordinary course of business. See "Key Non-GAAP Financial Measures We Use to Evaluate Our Performance" for further discussion. The following table sets forth the calculation of Free Cash Flow for the periods presented:

$
(14,814)
Free Cash Flow for the three months ended January 1, 2022 was $19.8 million lower than the three months ended January 2, 2021, due to a $21.6 million increase in cash used in operating activities that was partially offset by a decrease of $1.7 million in cash paid for fixed assets.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We had outstanding letters of credit totaling $6.3 million at January 1, 2022, the majority of which secure our self-insured workers compensation program, the collateral for which is regulated by the State of Georgia.
29
We had a $3.0 million guarantee outstanding at January 1, 2022 which relates to a guarantee of indebtedness for a term loan obtained by one of our dealers with a remaining maturity up to 1.0 year. The $3.0 million represents the estimated maximum amount we would be required to pay upon default of all guaranteed indebtedness, and we believe the likelihood of required performance to be remote.
Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Mar
ket Risk.
There have not been any material changes to our interest rate, commodity or currency risks previously disclosed in Part II, Item 7A of the Company's 2021 Form 10-K.
Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including, as appropriate, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
Based on their evaluations, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of January 1, 2022.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended January 1, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
