CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE “SAFE HARBOR” PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 concerning, among other things, our prospects and business strategies. These forward-looking statements are included in various sections of this report. The words “may,” “will,” “believe,” “should,” “could,” “plan,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” and similar expressions (and variations thereof), identify these forward-looking statements. Although we believe the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, these expectations may not prove to be correct. Because these forward-looking statements are also subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements include:
general economic, business, market and social conditions, including the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic;
our ability (or inability) to successfully execute cost reduction, performance improvement and other plans, including our plans in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and our previously announced accelerated performance improvement plan (“Accelerate”), and to realize the anticipated benefits from these plans;
disasters, local and global public health emergencies or other catastrophic events, such as fires, earthquakes and flooding, pandemics or epidemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic), where we or our customers do business and any resultant disruptions in the supply or production of goods or services to us or by us in demand by our customers or in the operation of our system, disaster recovery capabilities or business continuity capabilities;
changes in capital availability or costs, including increases in our cost of borrowing (i.e., interest rate increases), the amount of our debt, our ability to access capital markets at favorable rates, and the credit ratings of our debt and our financial flexibility to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic;
our ability to comply with the covenants contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness and otherwise have sufficient liquidity through the COVID-19 pandemic;
our working capital requirements;
our ability to source and procure needed materials, components and other products, and services in accordance with customer demand and at competitive prices;
supply chain disruptions, including constraints on steel and semiconductors and resulting increases in costs, impacting our company, our customers or the automotive industry;
the cost and outcome of existing and any future claims, legal proceedings or investigations, including, but not limited to, any of the foregoing arising in connection with product performance, product safety or intellectual property rights;
changes in consumer demand for our original equipment (“OE”) products or aftermarket products, prices and our ability to have our products included on top selling vehicles, including any shifts in consumer preferences away from historically higher margin products for our customers and us, to other lower margin vehicles, for which we may or may not have supply arrangements;
the continued evolution of the automotive industry towards car and ride sharing, and autonomous vehicles;
the announced plans, in an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, of governments and vehicle manufactures to limit production of diesel and gasoline powered vehicles in various national and local jurisdictions globally;
the cyclical nature of the global vehicle industry, including the performance of the global aftermarket sector and the impact of vehicle parts’ longer product lives;
changes in automotive and commercial vehicle manufacturers’ production rates and their actual and forecasted requirements for our products, due to difficult economic conditions and/or regulatory or legal changes affecting internal combustion engines and/or aftermarket products;
our dependence on certain large customers, including the loss of any of our large OE manufacturer customers (on whom we depend for substantial portion of our revenues), or the loss of market shares by these customers if we are unable to achieve increased sales to other OE-customers or any change in customer demand due to delays in the adoption or enforcement of worldwide emissions regulations;
new technologies that reduce the demand for certain of our products or otherwise render them obsolete;
our ability to introduce new products and technologies that satisfy customers’ needs in a timely fashion;
the overall highly competitive nature of the automotive and commercial vehicle parts industries, and any resultant inability to realize the sales represented by our awarded book of business (which is based on anticipated pricing and volumes over the life of the applicable program);
3



risks inherent in operating a multi-national company, including economic conditions, such as currency exchange and inflation rates, political conditions in the countries where we operate or sell our products, adverse changes in trade agreements, tariffs, immigration policies, political stability or instability, tax and other laws, and potential disruptions of production and supply;
increasing competition from lower cost, private-label products;
damage to the reputation of one or more of our leading brands;
the impact of improvements in automotive parts on aftermarket demand for some of our products;
industry-wide strikes, labor disruptions at our facilities or any labor or other economic disruptions at any of our significant customers or suppliers or any of our customers’ other suppliers;
developments relating to our intellectual property, including our ability to adapt to changes in technology and the availability and effectiveness of legal protection for our innovations and brands;
costs related to product warranties and other customer satisfaction actions;
the failure, breach of, or potential disruption to, our information technology systems, including cyber attacks, such as ransomware or similar intrusions, cyber incidents, or misappropriation, exposure or corruption of sensitive information stored on such systems and the interruption to our business that such failure, breach or disruption may cause;
the impact of consolidation among vehicle parts suppliers and customers on our ability to compete in the highly competitive automotive and commercial vehicle supplier industry;
changes in distribution channels or competitive conditions in the markets and countries where we operate;
customer acceptance of new products;

TENNECO INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(in millions, except share and per share amounts, or as otherwise noted)

1. Description of Business

Tenneco Inc. (“Tenneco” or “the Company”) was formed under the laws of Delaware in 1996. Tenneco designs, manufactures, markets, and distributes products and services for light vehicle, commercial truck, off-highway, industrial, motorsport, and aftermarket customers. The Company manufactures innovative performance solutions, clean air and powertrain products and systems, and serves both original equipment (“OE”) manufacturers and the repair and replacement markets worldwide.

The Company is continually evaluating its portfolio and a full range of strategic options to enhance shareholder value creation, including a potential separation of the Company into an Aftermarket and Ride Performance company and a new Powertrain Technology company. Efforts to optimize shareholder value creation remain focused on operational improvements, reducing structural costs, lowering capital intensity, reducing net debt, and growth in targeted business lines.

2. Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation Interim Financial Statements
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) management believes are necessary to fairly state the results of operations, comprehensive income, financial position, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows. The Company’s management believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2021 (the “2020 Form 10-K”). Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. There are many uncertainties related to the COVID-19 global pandemic that could negatively affect the Company's results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, the Company made a change to its operating segments. This change consisted of moving a reporting unit within the Powertrain segment to the Ride Performance segment to align with a change in how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) allocates resources and assesses performance against the Company's key growth strategies. In addition, with this change to its segments, Ride Performance was renamed Performance Solutions. As such, prior period operating segment results and related disclosures have been conformed to reflect the Company's current operating segments.

Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior period have been aggregated or disaggregated to conform to current year presentation, as described above for the change in operating segments.

Redeemable noncontrolling interests
The Company has noncontrolling interests with redemption features. These redemption features could require the Company to make an offer to purchase the noncontrolling interests in the event of a change in control of Tenneco Inc. or certain of its subsidiaries or the passage of time.

At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company held redeemable noncontrolling interests of $58 million and $45 million which were not currently redeemable or probable of becoming redeemable. The redemption of these redeemable noncontrolling interests is not solely within the Company’s control, therefore, they are presented in the temporary equity section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not believe it is probable the redemption features related to these noncontrolling interest securities will be triggered, as a change in control event is generally not probable until it occurs. As such, these noncontrolling interests have not been remeasured to redemption value.

TENNECO INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
(Unaudited)

In addition, at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company held a redeemable noncontrolling interest of $50 million and $33 million which was probable of becoming redeemable. This noncontrolling interest is also presented in the temporary equity section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and has been remeasured to its redemption value. The Company immediately recognizes changes to redemption value as a component of “Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests” in the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). This redeemable noncontrolling interest represents a 9.5% ownership interest in Öhlins Intressenter AB (the “KÖ Interest”) retained by K Öhlin Holding AB (“Köhlin”), as a result of the Öhlins acquisition on January 10, 2019. Köhlin has an irrevocable right at any time after the third anniversary of the Öhlins acquisition to sell the KÖ Interest to the Company. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized an increase of $18 million and $10 million to the carrying value of this noncontrolling interest.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company completed the process to make a tender offer of the shares it did not own for a subsidiary in India acquired by the Company as part of the Federal-Mogul LLC acquisition on October 1, 2018, in accordance with local regulations. As a result of completing the tender offer, the redeemable noncontrolling interest was no longer redeemable or probable of becoming redeemable and the amount of $82 million was reclassified to permanent equity during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Refer to Note 16, “Related Party Transactions”, for additional information related to the tender offer of this noncontrolling interest.

The following is a rollforward of activities in the Company’s redeemable noncontrolling interests:
Six Months Ended June 30,
2021 2020
Balance at beginning of period $ 78  $ 196 
Net income (loss) attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests 13 
Other comprehensive income (loss) (1) (4)
Noncontrolling interest tender offer redemption —  (46)
Redemption value measurement adjustment 18  10 
Reclassification of noncontrolling interest to permanent equity —  (82)
Balance at end of period $ 108  $ 79 

Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the weighted average effect of all potentially dilutive securities from the date of issuance. Actual weighted average shares outstanding used in calculating earnings (loss) per share were as follows:
Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
2021 2020 2021 2020
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding 82,251,559  81,350,773  82,102,310  81,259,667 
Effect of dilutive securities:
PSUs and RSUs —  —  1,020,044  — 
Dilutive shares outstanding 82,251,559  81,350,773  83,122,354  81,259,667 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per share excluded 3,459,155 and 2,032,790 of share-based awards, as the effect on the calculation would have been anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per share excluded 3,133,035 and 2,508,565 of share-based awards, as the effect on the calculation would have been anti-dilutive.

3. Acquisitions and Divestitures

Assets Held for Sale
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had $11 million and $15 million of property, plant, and equipment, primarily land, buildings and non-core machinery and equipment, across multiple segments that are expected to be sold in the next twelve months and have been classified as held for sale. The assets held for sale are recorded in “Prepayments and other current assets” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

4. Restructuring Charges, Net and Asset Impairments

The Company’s restructuring activities are undertaken as necessary to execute management’s strategy and streamline operations, consolidate and take advantage of available capacity and resources, and ultimately achieve net cost reductions. Restructuring activities include efforts to integrate and rationalize the Company’s businesses and to relocate operations to best cost locations.

The Company’s restructuring charges consist primarily of employee costs (principally severance and/or termination benefits), and facility closure and exit costs. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, restructuring charges, net and asset impairments by segment are as follows:

Other non-restructuring asset impairments
As a result of changes in the business, during the second quarter of 2021, the Company assessed and concluded an impairment trigger had occurred for certain long-lived asset groups in its corporate component and recognized an impairment charge of $2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the value of these long-lived asset groups are not recoverable. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company concluded impairment triggers had occurred for certain long-lived asset groups in the Performance Solutions segment as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the Company’s projected financial information. Accordingly, the Company tested these long-lived asset groups for recoverability by performing undiscounted cash flow analyses. Based on these analyses, the net carrying values of these asset groups exceeded their undiscounted future cash flows. As such, the Company estimated the fair values of these asset groups at March 31, 2020 and compared them to their carrying values. As the net carrying values of these long-lived asset groups exceeded their fair values, the Company recorded long-lived asset impairment charges for property, plant, and equipment of $455 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Refer to Note 8, “Financial Instruments and Fair Value” for additional information on the fair value estimates used in these analyses.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company concluded it was more likely than not that the fair values of certain of its reporting units and its indefinite-lived intangible assets had declined below their carrying values as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the Company’s projected financial information. The Company completed a goodwill impairment analysis for four of its reporting units with goodwill in the Motorparts, Performance Solutions, and Powertrain segments. The difference between the reporting units’ carrying values and fair values were recognized as impairment charges. The Company recognized $267 million in non-cash impairment charges related to its goodwill during the six months ended June 30, 2020, which represented full impairments of the goodwill in one reporting unit in the Performance Solutions segment and one reporting unit in the Powertrain segment, and partial impairments of goodwill in one reporting unit in the Motorparts segment and one reporting unit in the Performance Solutions segment.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company also completed an analysis to determine the fair value of its trade names and trademarks for its reporting units in the Motorparts and Performance Solutions segments. It was determined that their carrying values exceeded their fair values and the Company recognized $51 million in non-cash impairment charges related to these indefinite-lived intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2020, which represented a full impairment of the trade names and trademarks in one of the reporting units in the Motorparts segment, and a partial impairment of the trade names and trademarks in one of the reporting units in the Performance Solutions segment and one of the reporting units in the Motorparts segment.

As discussed in more detail in Note 4, “Restructuring Charges, Net and Asset Impairments”, the Company concluded impairment triggers had occurred during the first quarter of 2020 for certain long-lived asset groups within the Performance Solutions segment. As a result, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of $65 million related to its definite-lived intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2020, which represented full impairments of the definite-lived intangible assets in two reporting units.

8. Financial Instruments and Fair Value

The Company is exposed to market risk, such as fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity price risk associated with share-based compensation awards, and changes in interest rates, which may result in cash flow risks. For exposures not offset within its operations, the Company may enter into various derivative or other financial instrument transactions pursuant to its risk management policies, which prohibit holding or issuing derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. In certain cases, the Company may or may not designate certain derivatives instruments as hedges for accounting purposes. Designation of derivative instruments is performed on a transaction basis to support hedge accounting. The changes in fair value of these hedging instruments are offset in part or in whole by corresponding changes in the fair value or cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. The Company assesses the initial and ongoing effectiveness of its hedging relationships in accordance with its documented policy.

Market Risks
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
The Company manufactures and sells its products globally. As a result, the Company’s financial results could be significantly affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets in which the Company manufactures and sells its products. The Company generally tries to use natural hedges within its foreign currency activities to minimize foreign currency risk. Where natural hedges are not in place, the Company considers managing certain aspects of its foreign currency activities and larger transactions through the use of foreign currency options or forward contracts.

Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, including cash equivalents and derivative contracts, expose the Company to counterparty credit risk for non-performance. The Company’s counterparties for cash equivalents and derivative contracts are banks and financial institutions that meet the Company’s requirement of high credit standing. The Company’s concentration of credit risk related to derivative contracts at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is not considered material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Equity Price Risk
The Company has deferred compensation liabilities and certain cash-settled share-based incentive compensation liabilities that are dependent upon the Company’s stock price. These liabilities increase as the stock price increases and decrease as the stock price decreases. The Company has entered into certain financial instruments that move in the opposite direction of these liabilities. The market risk related to the deferred compensation liability and vested portion of the cash-settled share-based incentive compensation awards have been substantially mitigated. Significant market risk still exists with respect to the unvested cash-settled share-based incentive compensation grant awards which have not yet been accrued. Refer to “Other Financial Instruments” section below for additional details on these liabilities and the related financial instruments used to reduce the Company's equity price risk.

Fair Value
A three-level valuation hierarchy, based upon observable and unobservable inputs, is used for fair value measurements. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions based on the best evidence available. A financial instrument’s categorization within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy definition prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into the following levels:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs based on the Company's own assumptions.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Asset and Liability Instruments
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short and long-term receivables, accounts payable, and short-term debt approximates fair value.

Derivative Instruments
The Company presents its derivative positions and any related material collateral under master netting agreements on a net basis. Derivative gains and losses associated with undesignated hedges are recognized in “Cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)” in the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts
The Company enters into foreign currency forward purchase and sale contracts to mitigate its exposure to changes in exchange rates on certain intercompany and third-party trade receivables and payables. The Company calculates the fair value of its foreign currency contracts using currency forward rates (level 2), to calculate forward values, and then discounts the forward values. The discount rates for all derivative contracts are based on bank deposit rates. The fair value of these derivative instruments at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is not considered material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The following table summarizes by position the notional amounts for foreign currency forward contracts at June 30, 2021, all of which mature in the next twelve months:
  Notional Amount
Long positions $ 277 
Short positions $ (282)

Other Financial Instruments
Cash-Settled Share and Index Swap Transactions
The Company has certain employee compensation arrangements, including deferred compensation and cash-settled share-based units granted under its long-term incentive plan, that are valued based on the Company's stock price. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the share equivalents outstanding related to cash-settled share-based awards are as follows:

June 30,
2021

4,748,936 1,878,220
Deferred compensation arrangements 1,584,039 1,125,605

The Company has entered into financial instruments to mitigate the risk associated with the deferred compensation liability and vested portion of the cash-settled share-based incentive compensation awards. In the second quarter of 2021, the Company entered into an additional agreement to increase the number of common share equivalents from 1,700,000 at December 31, 2020 to 3,200,000 at June 30, 2021 to mitigate additional market risk. These financial instruments use the Company’s stock price as an observable input (level 2) in determining fair value. The estimated fair value of these financial instruments at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is as follows:

Hedging Instruments
Cash Flow Hedges — Commodity Price Risk
The Company’s production processes are dependent upon the supply of certain raw materials that are exposed to price fluctuations on the open market. Commodity rate price forward contracts are executed to offset a portion of the exposure to potential change in prices for raw materials. The Company monitors its commodity price risk exposures regularly to maximize the overall effectiveness of its commodity forward contracts.

The Company has designated these contracts as cash flow hedging instruments. The Company records unrecognized gains and losses in other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI” or “OCL”) and makes reclassifying adjustments into “Cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)” within the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) when the underlying hedged transaction is recognized in earnings. The Company had commodity derivatives outstanding with an equivalent notional amount of $40 million and $10 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Substantially all of the commodity price hedge contracts mature within one year.

The Company calculates the fair value of its commodity contracts using commodity forward rates (level 2), to calculate forward values, and then discounts the forward values. The discount rates for all derivative contracts are based on bank deposit rates. The fair value of these derivative instruments at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is not considered material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Net Investment Hedge — Foreign Currency Borrowings
At December 31, 2020, the Company had foreign currency denominated debt, of which €344 million or $420 million, was designated as a net investment hedge in certain foreign subsidiaries and affiliates of the Company and was included in “Long-term debt” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes to its carrying value were included in the condensed consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity in the foreign currency translation component of OCL and offset against the translation adjustments on the underlying net assets of those foreign subsidiaries and affiliates, which are also recorded in OCL. All of the outstanding foreign currency borrowings related to the net investment hedge were discharged on March 17, 2021, as a result, there are no outstanding foreign currency borrowings designated as a net investment hedge at June 30, 2021. The Company’s debt instruments are discussed further in Note 9, “Debt and Other Financing Arrangements”.

The following table represents the amount of gain (loss) recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) before any reclassifications into net income (loss) for derivative and non-derivative instruments designated as hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:
Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
2021 2020 2021 2020
Commodity price hedge contracts designated as cash flow hedges $ (1)    $ $    $
Foreign currency borrowings designated as a net investment hedge $ —     $ (16) $ 11     $ (2)

The Company estimates approximately $1 million included in accumulated OCI or OCL at June 30, 2021 will be reclassified into net income (loss) within the following twelve months. Refer to Note 14, “Shareholders' Equity” for further information.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Assets may be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets include long-lived assets and intangible assets, which may be written down to fair value as a result of impairment.

Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the value of these long-lived asset groups are not recoverable. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company concluded certain impairment triggers had occurred for certain long-lived asset groups as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the Company’s projected financial information. After failing the undiscounted cash flow recoverability test, the Company estimated the fair values of these long-lived asset groups and compared them to their net carrying values. The fair value measurements related to these long-lived asset groups rely primarily on Company-specific inputs and the Company’s assumptions about the use of the assets, as observable inputs are not available (level 3). To determine the fair value of the long-lived asset groups, the Company utilized an asset-based approach. The Company believes the assumptions and estimates used to determine the estimated fair values of the long-lived asset groups are reasonable; however, these estimates and assumptions are subject to a high degree of uncertainty. Due to the many variables inherent in estimating fair value, differences in assumptions could have a material effect on the results of the analyses.

As the net carrying values of the long-lived asset groups exceeded their fair values, the Company recorded long-lived asset impairment charges consisting of $65 million of definite-lived intangible assets and $455 million of property, plant, and equipment, during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Refer to Note 4, “Restructuring Charges, Net and Asset Impairments” for additional information on asset impairments and refer to Note 6, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, for additional information on the definite-lived intangible asset impairments.

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company concluded it was more likely than not that the fair values of certain of its reporting units and trade names and trademarks had declined below their carrying values as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the Company’s projected financial information. The Company completed analyses to estimate the fair values of these reporting units and trade names and trademarks. The Company believes the assumptions and estimates used to determine the estimated fair values are reasonable; however, these estimates and assumptions are subject to a high degree of uncertainty. Due to the many variables inherent in estimating fair value, differences in assumptions could have a material effect on the results of the analyses.

The basis of the goodwill impairment and indefinite-lived intangible asset analyses is the Company's current forecast of its annual budget and three-year strategic plan. This includes a projection of future cash flows, which requires the Company to make significant assumptions and estimates about the extent and timing of future cash flows and revenue growth rates. These represent Company-specific inputs and assumptions about the use of the assets, as observable inputs are not available (level 3). Due to the many variables inherent in estimating fair value and the relative size of the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, differences in assumptions could have a material effect on the results of the analyses.

In the goodwill impairment analysis, for reporting units with goodwill, fair values are estimated using a combination of the income approach and market approach. The Company applies a 75% weighting to the income approach and a 25% weighting to the market approach. The most significant inputs in estimating the fair value of the Company's reporting units under the income approach are (i) projected operating margins, (ii) the revenue growth rate, and (iii) the discount rate, which is risk-adjusted based on the aforementioned inputs.

For the indefinite-lived asset impairment analysis, the fair value is based upon the prospective stream of hypothetical after-tax royalty cost savings discounted at rates that reflect the rates of return appropriate for these intangible assets. The primary, and most sensitive, inputs utilized in determining fair values of trade names and trademarks are (i) projected branded product sales, (ii) the revenue growth rate, (iii) the royalty rate, and (iv) the discount rate, which is risk-adjusted based on the projected branded sales.

Refer to Note 6, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, for additional information on the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairments.

Further information on the terms and conditions of the Senior Unsecured Notes and Senior Secured Notes is included in the Company's 2020 Form 10-K.

At June 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under the indentures governing the Senior Unsecured Notes and Senior Secured Notes.

Other Debt
Other debt consists primarily of subsidiary debt.

Factoring Arrangements
In the Company's accounts receivable factoring programs, accounts receivables are transferred in their entirety to the acquiring entities and are accounted for as a sale. The fair value of assets received as proceeds in exchange for the transfer of accounts receivable under these factoring programs approximates the fair value of such receivables. Some of these programs have deferred purchase price arrangements with the banks.

The Company is the servicer of the receivables under some of these arrangements and is responsible for performing all accounts receivable administration functions. Where the Company receives a fee to service and monitor these transferred accounts receivables, such fees are sufficient to offset the costs and as such, a servicing asset or liability is not recorded as a result of such activities.

At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the amount of accounts receivable outstanding and derecognized for factoring arrangements was $1.0 billion and $1.0 billion, of which $0.4 billion and $0.4 billion relate to accounts receivable where the Company has continuing involvement. In addition, the deferred purchase price receivable was $62 million and $51 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, proceeds from the factoring of accounts receivable qualifying as sales were $1.3 billion and $0.7 billion, of which $1.0 billion and $0.5 billion were received on accounts receivable where the Company has continuing involvement. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, proceeds from the factoring of accounts receivable qualifying as sales were $2.6 billion and $1.9 billion, of which $2.1 billion and $1.6 billion were received on accounts receivable where the Company has continuing involvement.

The Company’s financing charges associated with the factoring of receivables, which are included in “Interest expense” in the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss), was $5 million and $4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and $9 million and $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

If the Company were not able to factor receivables under these programs, its borrowings under its revolving credit agreement might increase. These programs provide the Company with access to cash at costs that are generally favorable to alternative sources of financing and allow the Company to reduce borrowings under its revolving credit agreement.

11. Income Taxes

For interim tax reporting, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate and applies it to year-to-date ordinary income. Jurisdictions where no tax benefit can be recognized due to a valuation allowance are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate. The effect of including these jurisdictions on the quarterly effective rate calculation could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a quarter due to the mix and timing of actual earnings versus annual projections. The tax effects of certain items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate calculation and recognized in the interim period in which they occur. The Company considers both positive and negative evidence and evaluates its deferred tax assets quarterly to determine if valuation allowances are required or should be adjusted. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and amount of recent losses, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, and tax planning strategies. In making such judgments, significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $41 million on income from continuing operations before income taxes of $58 million. This compares to an income tax benefit of $101 million on loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $441 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $88 million on income from continuing operations before income taxes of $192 million. This compares to an income tax benefit of $195 million on loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $1,361 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 differs from the U.S. statutory rate due primarily to pre-tax income taxed at rates higher than the U.S. statutory rate and pre-tax losses with no tax benefits.

29

TENNECO INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
(Unaudited)
Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 differs from the U.S. statutory rate due primarily to pre-tax income taxed at rates higher than the U.S. statutory rate and pre-tax losses with no tax benefits.

Income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2020 differs from the U.S. statutory rate due primarily to $111 million of tax benefit recognized related to the asset impairment charges of $883 million, pre-tax income taxed at rates higher than the U.S. statutory rate, and pre-tax losses with no tax benefits.

The Company received notification in the first quarter of 2021 that its U.S. tax refund claim is approved and the tax years through 2016 are now effectively settled. The Company believes it is reasonably possible up to $43 million in unrecognized tax benefits related to the expiration of statute of limitations and the conclusion of income tax examinations may be recognized within the next twelve months. The Company released $54 million of unrecognized tax benefits with a corresponding adjustment of $54 million to the Company’s valuation allowance as a result of the conclusion of income tax examinations in the first quarter of 2021.
12. Commitments and Contingencies

Environmental Matters
The Company is subject to a variety of environmental and pollution control laws and regulations in all jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company has been notified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, other national environmental agencies, and various provincial and state agencies that it may be a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) under such laws for the cost of remediating hazardous substances pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) and other national and state or provincial environmental laws. PRP designation typically requires the funding of site investigations and subsequent remedial activities. Many of the sites that are likely to be the costliest to remediate are often current or former commercial waste disposal facilities to which numerous companies sent wastes. Despite the potential joint and several liability which might be imposed on the Company under CERCLA and some of the other laws pertaining to these sites, its share of the total waste sent to these sites generally has been small. The Company believes its exposure for liability at these sites is not material.

On a global basis, the Company has also identified certain other present and former properties at which it may be responsible for cleaning up or addressing environmental contamination, in some cases, as a result of contractual commitments and/or federal or state environmental laws. The Company is actively seeking to resolve these actual and potential statutory, regulatory, and contractual obligations.

The Company expenses or capitalizes, as appropriate, expenditures for ongoing compliance with environmental regulations. At June 30, 2021, the Company has an obligation to remediate or contribute towards the remediation of certain sites, including the sites discussed above at which it may be a PRP.

The Company’s estimated share of environmental remediation costs for all these sites is recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 as follows:
June 30,

(Unaudited)
Based on information known to the Company from site investigations and the professional judgment of consultants, the Company has established reserves it believes are adequate for these costs. Although the Company believes these estimates of remediation costs are reasonable and are based on the latest available information, the costs are estimates, difficult to quantify based on the complexity of the issues, and are subject to revision as more information becomes available about the extent of remediation required. At some sites, the Company expects other parties will contribute to the remediation costs. In addition, certain environmental statutes provide the Company’s liability could be joint and several, meaning the Company could be required to pay amounts in excess of its share of remediation costs. The financial strength of the other PRPs at these sites has been considered, where appropriate, in the determination of the estimated liability. The Company does not believe any potential costs associated with its current status as a PRP, or as a liable party at the other locations referenced herein, will be material to its annual consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

Other Legal Proceedings, Claims and Investigations
For many years, the Company has been and continues to be subject to lawsuits initiated by claimants alleging health problems as a result of exposure to asbestos. The Company’s current docket of active and inactive cases is approximately 500 cases in the United States and less than 50 in Europe.

With respect to the claims filed in the United States, the substantial majority of the claims are related to alleged exposure to asbestos in the Company’s line of Walker® exhaust automotive products although a significant number of those claims appear also to involve occupational exposures sustained in industries other than automotive. A small number of claims have been asserted against one of the Company’s subsidiaries by railroad workers alleging exposure to asbestos products in railroad cars. The Company believes, based on scientific and other evidence, it is unlikely that U.S. claimants were exposed to asbestos by the Company’s former products and that, in any event, they would not be at increased risk of asbestos-related disease based on their work with these products. Further, many of these cases involve numerous defendants. Additionally, in many cases the plaintiffs either do not specify any, or specify the jurisdictional minimum, dollar amount for damages.

With respect to the claims filed in Europe, the substantial majority relate to occupational exposure claims brought by current and former employees of Federal-Mogul facilities in France and amounts paid out were not material. A small number of occupational exposure claims have also been asserted against Federal-Mogul entities in Italy and Spain.

As major asbestos manufacturers and/or users continue to go out of business or file for bankruptcy, the Company may experience an increased number of these claims. The Company vigorously defends itself against these claims as part of its ordinary course of business. In future periods, the Company could be subject to cash costs or charges to earnings if any of these matters are resolved unfavorably to the Company. To date, with respect to claims that have proceeded sufficiently through the judicial process, the Company has regularly achieved favorable resolutions. Accordingly, the Company presently believes that these asbestos-related claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s annual consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

The Company is also from time to time involved in other legal proceedings, claims or investigations. Some of these matters involve allegations of damages against the Company relating to environmental liabilities (including toxic tort, property damage and remediation), intellectual property matters (including patent, trademark and copyright infringement, and licensing disputes), personal injury claims (including injuries due to product failure, design or warning issues, and other product liability related matters), taxes, unclaimed property, employment matters, advertising matters, and commercial or contractual disputes, sometimes related to acquisitions or divestitures. Additionally, some of these matters involve allegations relating to legal compliance.

While the Company vigorously defends itself against all of these legal proceedings, claims and investigations and take other actions to minimize its potential exposure, in future periods, the Company could be subject to cash costs or charges to earnings if any of these matters are resolved on unfavorable terms. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on current information, including the Company’s assessment of the merits of the particular claim, the Company does not expect the legal proceedings, claims or investigations currently pending against it will have any material adverse effect on its annual consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company’s primary asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) activities relate to the removal of hazardous building materials at its facilities. The Company records an ARO at fair value upon initial recognition when the amount is probable and can be reasonably estimated. ARO fair values are determined based on the Company’s determination of what a third party would charge to perform the remediation activities, generally using a present value technique.

The Company’s ARO liabilities at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are as follows:

Warranty Matters
The Company provides warranties on some of its products. The warranty terms vary but range from one year up to limited lifetime warranties on some of its premium aftermarket products. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranty are made at the time products are sold or when specific warranty issues are identified with the Company’s products. These estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency, and average cost of warranty claims. The Company believes the warranty reserve is appropriate; however, actual claims incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the reserve. The reserve is included in both current and long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following represents the changes in the Company’s warranty accrual accounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

Cash-Settled Awards
The Company has granted restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance share units (“PSUs”) to certain key employees that are payable in cash. These awards are classified as liabilities and remeasured at fair value each reporting date until settlement. Compensation expense for the RSUs is recognized ratably over the requisite service period. Compensation expense for the PSUs is recognized ratably over the requisite service period if it is probable the performance target related to the PSUs will be achieved and subsequently adjusted if this probability assessment changes. The PSUs have the potential to pay out between zero and 200%, based on performance target achievement. The following table reflects the outstanding cash-settled share-based awards as of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020:

At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the liability of all cash-settled RSUs was $11 million and $3 million. The liability of all cash-settled PSUs at June 30, 2021 was $8 million and there were no outstanding PSUs at December 31, 2020.

At June 30, 2021, there is $72 million in unrecognized costs on the cash-settled awards, using the quarter end stock price, that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately two years.

Share-Settled Awards
The Company has granted restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and performance share units (“PSUs”) that are payable in shares to certain key employees. These awards are classified as equity and are recognized at the grant date fair value. Compensation expense for the restricted stock and RSUs is recognized ratably over the requisite service period. Compensation expense for the PSUs is recognized ratably over the requisite service period if it is probable the performance target will be achieved, and subsequently adjusted if this probability assessment changes. The PSUs have the potential to pay out between zero and 200 percent, based on performance target achievement.

15. Segment Information

Tenneco consists of four operating segments, Motorparts, Performance Solutions, Clean Air, and Powertrain. Costs related to other business activities, primarily corporate headquarter functions, are disclosed separately from the four operating segments as “Corporate.”

Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, the Company made a change to its operating segments. This change consisted of moving a reporting unit within the Powertrain segment to the Ride Performance segment to align with a change in how the CODM allocates resources and assesses performance against the Company’s key growth strategies. In addition, with this change to its segments, Ride Performance was renamed Performance Solutions. As such, prior period operating segment results and related disclosures have been conformed to reflect the Company's current operating segments.

Management uses EBITDA including noncontrolling interests as the key performance measure of segment profitability and uses the measure in its financial and operational decision-making processes, for internal reporting, and for planning and forecasting purposes to effectively allocate resources. EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, noncontrolling interests, and depreciation and amortization. Segment assets are not presented as it is not a measure reviewed by the CODM in allocating resources and assessing performance.

EBITDA including noncontrolling interests should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income, which is the most directly comparable financial measure to EBITDA including noncontrolling interests that is in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA including noncontrolling interests, as determined and measured by the Company, should not be compared to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Segment results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

Disaggregated Revenue
Original Equipment
Value-Added Sales
OE revenue is generated from providing OE manufacturers and servicers with products for automotive, heavy duty, and industrial applications. Supply relationships typically extend over the life of the related vehicle, subject to interim design and technical specification revisions, and do not require the customer to purchase a minimum quantity.

Substrate/Passthrough Sales
Generally, in connection with the sale of exhaust systems to certain OE manufacturers, the Company purchases catalytic converters and diesel particulate filters or components thereof including precious metals (“substrates”) on behalf of its customers which are used in the assembled system. These substrates are included in inventory and are “passed through” to the customer at cost, plus a small margin. Since the Company takes title to the substrate inventory and has responsibility for both the delivery and quality of the finished product including the substrates, the revenues and related expenses are recorded at gross amounts.

Aftermarket
Aftermarket revenue is generated from providing products for the global vehicle aftermarket to a wide range of warehouse distributors, retail parts stores, and mass merchants that distribute these products to customers ranging from professional service providers to “do-it-yourself” consumers.

As part of the Federal-Mogul LLC acquisition, the Company acquired a redeemable noncontrolling interest related to a subsidiary in India. In accordance with local regulations, the Company initiated a process to make a tender offer of the shares it did not own due to the change in control triggered by the Federal-Mogul LLC acquisition. The Company entered into separate agreements with IEP subsequent to the purchase agreement whereby IEP agreed to fund and execute the tender offer for the shares on behalf of the Company. During the first quarter of 2020, the tender offer for the shares was completed. Since the transaction was funded and executed by IEP, the completion of the tender offer resulted in an adjustment to additional paid-in capital during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Immediately following the completion of the tender offer, the shares of this noncontrolling interest not owned by the Company were no longer redeemable, or probable of becoming redeemable; therefore, the noncontrolling interest was reclassified from temporary equity to permanent equity during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Refer to Note 2, “Basis of Presentation”, for further information on this noncontrolling interest.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

References herein to “Tenneco”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to Tenneco Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons of June 30, 2021 financial results are to June 30, 2020 financial results.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 24, 2021 (the “2020 Form 10-K”).

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
Our Business
We design, manufacture, market, and distribute products and services for light vehicle, commercial truck, off-highway, industrial, motorsport, and aftermarket customers. We manufacture innovative performance solutions, clean air, and powertrain products and systems, and serve both original equipment (“OE”) manufacturers and the repair and replacement markets worldwide. We supply OE parts to vehicle manufacturers for use in light vehicles, commercial vehicles, and other mobility markets; and the global aftermarket with replacement parts that are sold to wholesalers, retailers, and installers, as well as original equipment service (“OES”) parts to OE customers to support their service channels. We serve our customers through leading brands, including Monroe®, Champion®, Öhlins®, MOOG®, Walker®, Fel-Pro®, Wagner®, Ferodo®, Rancho®, Thrush®, National®, and Sealed Power®, and others.

Factors that continue to be critical to our success include winning new business awards, managing our overall global manufacturing and fulfillment footprint to ensure proper placement and workforce levels in line with business needs, maintaining competitive wages and benefits, maximizing efficiencies in manufacturing processes, positioning the business to adapt to changes in vehicle electrification, and reducing overall costs. In addition, our ability to adapt to key industry trends, such as a shift in consumer preferences to other vehicles in response to higher fuel costs and other economic and social factors, increasing technologically sophisticated content, changing aftermarket distribution channels, increasing environmental standards, and extended product life of automotive parts, also play a critical role in our success. Other factors that are critical to our success include adjusting to economic challenges such as managing the availability of materials or increases in the cost of raw materials and our ability to successfully reduce the effect of any such cost increases through material substitutions, cost reduction initiatives, and other methods.

Change in Reportable Segments
Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, we made a change to our operating segments. This change consisted of moving a reporting unit from the Powertrain segment to the Ride Performance segment to align with a change in how our Chief Operating Decision Maker allocates resources and assesses performance against our key growth strategies. With this segment change and our enhanced focus on growth, Ride Performance was renamed Performance Solutions. As such, prior period operating segment results and related disclosures have been conformed to reflect our current operating segments.

Tenneco consists of four operating segments, Motorparts, Performance Solutions, Clean Air, and Powertrain:
The Motorparts segment designs, manufactures, sources, markets, and distributes a broad portfolio of leading brand-name products in the global vehicle aftermarket while also servicing the original equipment servicers market. Motorparts products are organized into categories, including shocks and struts, steering and suspension, braking, sealing, emissions control, engine, and maintenance;
The Performance Solutions segment designs, manufactures, markets, and distributes a variety of performance solutions and systems to a global OE customer base, including noise, vibration, and harshness performance materials, advanced suspension technologies, ride control, braking, and system protection. Performance Solutions is agnostic to powertrain technologies;
The Clean Air segment designs, manufactures, and distributes a variety of products and systems designed to reduce pollution and optimize engine performance, acoustic tuning, and weight on a vehicle for light vehicle, commercial truck, and off-highway OE customers; and
The Powertrain segment designs, manufactures, and distributes a variety of original equipment powertrain products for light vehicle, commercial truck, off-highway, and industrial applications to OE customers for use in new vehicle production and OES parts to support their service and distribution channels.

Costs related to other business activities, primarily corporate headquarter functions, are disclosed separately from the four operating segments as “Corporate.” See Note 15, “Segment Information”, in our condensed consolidated financial statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for additional information.

Strategic Alternatives
We are continually evaluating our portfolio and a full range of strategic options to enhance shareholder value creation, including a potential separation of the Company into an Aftermarket and Ride Performance company and a new Powertrain Technology company. Efforts to optimize shareholder value creation remain focused on operational improvements, reducing structural costs, lowering capital intensity, reducing net debt, and growth in targeted business lines.

Financial Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Consolidated revenues were $9,314 million, an increase of $2,841 million, or 44%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The primary driver of the increase is higher sales volume of $2,532 million, largely attributable to the effects of COVID-19 in the prior year. The remaining increase is attributable to the favorable effects of foreign currency exchange of $285 million and the net favorable effects of other of $34 million. The favorable effects were partially offset by the effects of divestitures contributing a $10 million decrease in revenues, or less than 1%.

Cost of sales were $8,034 million, an increase of $2,197 million, or 38%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The primary driver of the increase is higher sales volume of $2,026 million, largely attributable to the effects of COVID-19 in the prior year. The remaining increase is attributable to the unfavorable effects of materials sourcing of $101 million and the unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange of $258 million. This was partially offset by the decrease in cost of sales of $10 million, or less than 1%, related to the effects of divestitures and the net favorable effects of other costs of $140 million. In addition, the Motorparts segment recognized a non-cash charge of $44 million related to the write-down of inventory in connection with its initiative to rationalize its supply chain and distribution network, as compared to $82 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $38 million.

Results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was net income of $104 million as compared to a net loss of $1,166 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change from a net loss to net income was primarily driven by:
a decrease in restructuring charges, net and asset impairments of $553 million primarily related to the impairment of long-lived asset groups recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020 triggered by the effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the Company’s projected financial information, and global headcount and cost reduction initiatives; and
a decrease in goodwill and intangible impairment charges of $383 million, which was comprised of $267 million of goodwill impairment charges, $65 million of definite-lived intangible asset impairments, and $51 million of indefinite-lived intangible asset impairments recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

These favorable effects were partially offset by:
an increase in selling, general, and administrative costs of $80 million, primarily due to higher compensation costs during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and also includes the effects of cost reduction initiatives implemented in response to the effects of COVID-19, which consisted of unpaid furloughs, net pay decreases, and temporary support programs during the six months ended June 30, 2020, partially offset by a decrease in other costs (including strategic and transaction related); and
a change to income tax expense of $88 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 from income tax benefit of $195 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily driven by the pre-tax loss recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020 relating to the asset impairment charges of $883 million as compared to pre-tax income for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

There is inherent uncertainty in the continuation of the trends discussed below. In addition, there may be other factors or trends that can have an effect on our business.

The principal raw material that we use is steel. We obtain steel from a number of sources pursuant to various contractual and other arrangements. Due to recent supply chain constraints within the automotive industry, we may encounter difficulty in obtaining steel and other commodities at current contractual prices and as a result may incur higher costs to procure these items. In addition, the automotive industry continues to face a shortage of semiconductors, which has led to production disruptions globally and created operating challenges for the automotive supplier base. We believe the semiconductor shortage will continue to affect the industry in the near-term.

General economic conditions
Our OE business is directly related to automotive vehicle production by our customers. Automotive production levels depend on a number of factors, including global and regional economic conditions. Demand for aftermarket products is driven by four primary factors: the number of vehicles in operation; the average age of vehicles; vehicle usage trends (primarily miles driven); and component failure and wear rates.

The COVID-19 global pandemic has negatively affected the global economy, disrupted global supply chains, and created extreme volatility and disruptions to capital and credit markets in the global financial markets. The extent of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic will depend on a number of factors, including the duration and severity of the pandemic or subsequent resurgence of the outbreaks, the effects and extent of COVID-19 variants, related government responses, the rate of economic recovery from the pandemic, vaccination rates, and the effectiveness of available vaccines. There continues to be many uncertainties that remain related to COVID-19 that could negatively affect our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

Global vehicle production levels
Global light vehicle production levels (According to IHS Markit, July, 2021)
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, global light vehicle production was up 49% overall and up across almost all major markets in which we operate compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the effects of COVID-19 in prior year. Light vehicle production levels in North America were up 132%, Europe was up 86%, India was up 408%, and South America production was up 301%, while production levels in China were down 4%.

Global light vehicle production increased by 29% overall for the first half of 2021 compared to the same period in the prior year. There were significant increases globally, including a 32% increase in North America, a 28% increase in Europe, a 25% increase in China, a 61% increase in South America, and an increase in India of 83%.

Global commercial truck production levels (According to IHS Markit, May, 2021)
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, global commercial truck production was flat as compared to the same period in the prior year as production increases in almost all major markets in which we operate were substantially and equally offset by the production decline in China. The increase in 2021 is primarily due to the effects of COVID-19 in prior year. Production increased by 103% in North America, 153% in Brazil, 67% in Europe, and 1,152% in India, while production levels were down 35% in China.

Global commercial truck production increased by 20% overall for the first half of 2021 compared to the same period in the prior year. There were significant increases globally, including a 42% increase in North America, a 49% increase in Brazil, a 35% increase in Europe, a 7% increase in China, and an increase in India of 105%.

Fuel efficiency, powertrain evolution, and vehicle electrification
Various jurisdictions around the world have announced plans to limit the production of new diesel and gasoline powered vehicles in the future. Major vehicle manufacturers have announced their intention to reduce and phase out production of diesel and gasoline powered vehicles during the next two decades. However, for the foreseeable future, it is expected that the majority of the powertrains for light and commercial vehicles will be gasoline and diesel engines (including hybrids, which combine a battery electric drive with a combustion engine). While we see similar electrification trends for light vehicle and commercial vehicle, we expect light vehicles will experience those trends in advance of commercial vehicles. We expect to monitor those trends and adopt our business strategy accordingly.

Business Strategy
We are a leading diversified, global supplier of innovative products and services to light vehicle, commercial truck, off-highway, industrial, and aftermarket customers. Our strategy focuses on addressing the evolving needs of our OE and aftermarket customers around the world to drive growth. As discussed in more detail in our 2020 Form 10-K, the key components of our business strategy are as follows:
Continue to optimize operational performance by aggressively pursuing cost competitiveness in all business segments and continuing to drive cash flow generation and meet capital allocation objectives;
Pursue focused transactional opportunities, consistent with our capital allocation priorities, product line enhancements, technological advancements, geographic positioning, penetration of emerging markets, and market share growth; and
Adapt cost structure to economic realities.

Original Equipment Specific Strategies
The converging forces of connectivity, autonomy, electrification, and shared mobility are spawning a new age of automotive autonomy and a unique opportunity to position our business for significant growth and profitability. We strive to strengthen our global position by designing, manufacturing, delivering, and marketing technologically innovative products and solutions for OE manufacturers. As discussed in more detail in our 2020 Form 10-K, the key components of our OE strategy are as follows:
Capitalize on our breadth of technology, differentiated products, and global reach to support and strengthen relationships with existing and emerging OE customers across the world;
Maintain technological leadership to drive further growth from secular market trends (our performance solutions division will leverage its innovative technology, NVH performance materials, differentiated products, and advanced system capabilities to provide innovative solutions; as well as, accelerate the development of advanced technology suspension solutions, while also fast-tracking time to market);
Invest in applications that benefit from global light vehicle battery electric vehicle adoption (we have prioritized investments in light vehicle product lines and applications that have content growth opportunities in light vehicle BEV and are agnostic to an anticipated increase in adoption rates); and
Penetrate adjacent market segments (aggressively leverage our technology and engineering leadership in powertrain, clean air, performance solutions and aftermarket into adjacent sales opportunities for commercial trucks, buses, agricultural equipment, construction machinery, and other vehicles in other regions around the world).

Aftermarket Specific Strategies
Our aftermarket business strategy incorporates a go-to-market model that we believe differentiates us from our competitors and creates structural support for sustained revenue growth. The model is designed to drive revenue growth by capitalizing on three of our key competitive strengths: a leading portfolio of products and brands; extensive global manufacturing, distribution and service capabilities; and market intelligence gathered from our distributors, installers, and consumers.

We expect this distinctive go-to-market model will result in a sustainable competitive advantage, particularly as the industry trends previously mentioned disrupt the traditional aftermarket landscape and business practices. We expect the demand for replacement parts to increase as a result of the increase in the average age of VIO and the increase in the average miles driven per year. The characteristics of aftermarket sales and distribution are defined regionally, which require localized strategies to address the key success factors of our customers. As discussed in more detail in our 2020 Form 10-K, the key components of our aftermarket strategy are as follows:
Leverage the strength of our global aftermarket leading brands positions, product portfolio and range, marketing and selling expertise, and distribution and logistics capabilities for global growth;
Continue to strengthen our aftermarket capabilities and product offerings in mature markets, including North America and Europe; and
Increase aftermarket position in high-growth regions, notably in Asia Pacific.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2020, the Motorparts segment initiated a rationalization of its supply chain and distribution network to achieve supply chain efficiencies and improve throughput to its customers. As a result, certain assets including inventory, real estate, and personal property will no longer be utilized. As part of Motorparts' on-going efforts related to this initiative, it recognized an additional non-cash charge of $44 million to write-down inventory to its net realizable value, an additional $1 million impairment charge to its property, plant, and equipment, and $1 million and $3 million in restructuring charges related to cash severance benefits and other costs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Refer to our 2020 Form 10-K.

Non-GAAP Measures
We use EBITDA including noncontrolling interests as the key performance measure of segment profitability and use the measure in our financial and operational decision-making processes, for internal reporting, and for planning and forecasting purposes to effectively allocate resources. EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, noncontrolling interests, and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA including noncontrolling interests should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income. EBITDA including noncontrolling interests, as determined and measured by us, should not be compared to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Segment Results of Operations
Overview of Net Sales and Operating Revenues
Our Clean Air segment has substrate sales. Substrates are porous ceramic filters coated with a catalyst - typically, precious metals such as platinum, palladium and rhodium. We do not manufacture substrates, as they are supplied to us by Tier 2 suppliers generally as directed by our OE customers. We generally earn a small margin on these components of the system. These substrate components have been increasing as a percentage of our revenue as the need for more sophisticated emission control solutions increases to meet more stringent environmental regulations, and as we capture more diesel aftertreatment business. While these substrates dilute our gross margin percentage, they are a necessary component of an emission control system.

We disclose substrate sales amounts because we believe investors utilize this information to understand the effect of this portion of our revenues on our overall business and because it removes the effect of potentially volatile precious metals pricing from our revenues. While our OE customers generally assume the risk of precious metals pricing volatility, it affects our reported revenues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity and Financing Arrangements
For the reasons discussed above under “Recent Trends and Market Conditions - General economic conditions”, there continues to be many uncertainties that remain related to COVID-19 that could negatively affect our liquidity and cash flows.

We believe cash flows from operations, combined with our cash on hand and committed and undrawn capacity under our $1.5 billion revolving credit facility, will be sufficient to meet our future capital requirements, including debt amortization, capital expenditures, pension contributions, and other operational requirements, for the following year based on our current estimates and forecasts. We believe we will maintain compliance with our financial ratios set forth in our amended credit agreement. However, our ability to meet the financial covenants depends upon a number of operational and economic factors, including the effects of COVID-19, many of which are beyond our control. In the event we are unable to meet these financial covenants, we would consider several options to meet our cash flow needs. Such actions include additional restructuring initiatives and other cost reductions, sales of assets, reductions to working capital and capital spending, issuance of equity, and other alternatives to enhance our financial and operating position. We also continue to actively monitor credit market conditions for the right opportunity to replace and extend maturity.

Credit Facilities
The table below shows our borrowing capacity on committed credit facilities at June 30, 2021 (amounts in billions):
  June 30, 2021
  Term

Tenneco Inc. Term Loan B 2025 — 
Subsidiaries’ credit agreements 2022 - 2028 — 
$ 1.5 
(a)We are required to pay commitment fees under the revolving credit facility on the unused portion of the total commitment.
(b)At June 30, 2021, we had $28 million of outstanding letters of credit under the revolving credit facility, which reduces the available borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We also had $77 million of outstanding letters of credit under our uncommitted facilities at June 30, 2021.

We have a senior credit facility under the credit agreement dated October 1, 2018 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “New Credit Facility”) that provides $4.9 billion of total debt financing, consisting of a five-year $1.5 billion revolving credit facility, a five-year $1.7 billion term loan A facility (“Term Loan A”) and a seven-year $1.7 billion term loan B facility (“Term Loan B”). 

At June 30, 2021, we had liquidity of $2.2 billion comprised of $719 million of cash and $1.5 billion undrawn on our revolving credit facility. We had no outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility at June 30, 2021.

Credit Facility
New Credit Facility — Interest Rates
At June 30, 2021, the interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility and the Term Loan A facility was LIBOR plus 2.00% and will remain at LIBOR plus 2.00% for each relevant period for which our consolidated net leverage ratio (as defined in the New Credit Facility) is less than 4.5 to 1 and greater than 3.0 to 1. The interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility and the Term Loan A facility are subject to step downs in accordance with the credit agreement.

New Credit Facility — Other Terms and Conditions
The financial ratios required under the New Credit Facility and the actual ratios we calculated as of June 30, 2021 are as follows: senior secured net leverage ratio of 2.14 actual versus 4.50 (maximum required under the third amendment dated May 5, 2020); and interest coverage ratio of 7.19 actual versus 2.75 (minimum required under the third amendment dated May 5, 2020).

Further information on interest rates, fees, and other terms and conditions of the New Credit Facility is included in our 2020 Form 10-K.

Senior Notes
A summary of our senior unsecured and secured notes at June 30, 2021 are as follows (amounts in millions):
Principal
Carrying Amount(a)
Senior Unsecured Notes
   $225 million of 5.375% Senior Notes due 2024 $ 225  $ 223 
   $500 million of 5.000% Senior Notes due 2026 $ 500  $ 495 
Senior Secured Notes
   $500 million of 7.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 $ 500  $ 490 
   $800 million of 5.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 $ 800  $ 786 
(a) Carrying amount is net of unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discounts or premiums. Total unamortized debt issuance costs were $87 million at June 30, 2021.

On March 3, 2021, we provided notice of our intention to redeem all of the outstanding 5.000% euro denominated senior secured notes due July 15, 2024 (the “2024 Fixed Rate Secured Notes”) and all of the outstanding floating rate euro denominated senior secured notes due April 15, 2024 (the “2024 Floating Rate Secured Notes” and, together with the 2024 Fixed Rate Secured Notes, the “2024 Secured Notes”). On March 17, 2021, we, using the net proceeds from the offering of 5.125% Senior Secured Notes, together with cash on hand, satisfied and discharged each of the indentures governing the 2024 Secured Notes in accordance with their terms. As a result, we recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Further information on the terms and conditions of the Senior Unsecured Notes and Senior Secured Notes is included in our 2020 Form 10-K.

At June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all of our financial covenants under the indentures governing the Senior Unsecured Notes and Senior Secured Notes.

Factoring Arrangements
In our accounts receivable factoring programs, accounts receivables are transferred in their entirety to the acquiring entities and are accounted for as a sale. The fair value of assets received as proceeds in exchange for the transfer of accounts receivable under these factoring programs approximates the fair value of such receivables. Some of these programs have deferred purchase price arrangements with the banks.

We are the servicer of the receivables under some of these arrangements and are responsible for performing all accounts receivable administration functions. Where we receive a fee to service and monitor these transferred accounts receivables, such fees are sufficient to offset the costs and as such, a servicing asset or liability is not recorded as a result of such activities.

At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the amount of accounts receivable outstanding and derecognized for factoring arrangements was $1.0 billion and $1.0 billion, of which $0.4 billion and $0.4 billion relate to accounts receivable where we have continuing involvement. In addition, the deferred purchase price receivable was $62 million and $51 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, proceeds from the factoring of accounts receivable qualifying as sales were $1.3 billion and $0.7 billion, of which $1.0 billion and $0.5 billion were received on accounts receivable where we have continuing involvement. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, proceeds from the factoring of accounts receivable qualifying as sales were $2.6 billion and $1.9 billion, of which $2.1 billion and $1.6 billion were received on accounts receivable where we have continuing involvement.

Our financing charges associated with the factoring of receivables, which are included in “Interest expense” in the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss), was $5 million and $4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and $9 million and $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

If we were not able to factor receivables under these programs, our borrowings under our revolving credit agreement might increase. These programs provide us with access to cash at costs that are generally favorable to alternative sources of financing and allow us to reduce borrowings under our revolving credit agreement.

ITEM 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to certain global market risks, including foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk, interest rate risk associated with our debt, and equity price risk associated with our share-based compensation awards.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
We manufacture and sell our products globally. As a result, our financial results could be significantly affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the foreign markets in which we manufacture and sell our products. We generally try to use natural hedges within our foreign currency activities to minimize foreign currency risk. Where natural hedges are not in place, we consider managing certain aspects of our foreign currency activities and larger transactions through the use of foreign currency options or forward contracts.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts
We enter into foreign currency forward purchase and sale contracts to mitigate our exposure to changes in exchange rates on certain intercompany and third-party trade receivables and payables. The fair value of these derivative instruments is not considered material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The following table summarizes by position the notional amounts for foreign currency forward contracts at June 30, 2021, all of which mature in the next twelve months (amounts in millions):
  Notional Amount
Long positions $ 277 
Short positions $ (282)

Commodity Price Risk
Our production processes are dependent upon the supply of certain raw materials that are exposed to price fluctuations on the open market. Commodity rate price forward contracts are executed to offset a portion of our exposure to the potential change in prices for raw materials. We monitor our commodity price risk exposures regularly to maximize the overall effectiveness of our commodity forward contracts. The fair value of our commodity price forward contracts is not considered material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Interest Rate Risk
Our financial instruments that are sensitive to market risk for changes in interest rates are primarily our debt securities. We use our revolving credit facility to finance our short-term and long-term capital requirements. We pay a current market rate of interest on these borrowings. Our long-term capital requirements have been financed with long-term debt with original maturity dates ranging from five to ten years. At June 30, 2021, we had $2.0 billion par value of fixed rate debt and $3.1 billion par value of floating rate debt. Of the fixed rate debt, $225 million is fixed through 2024, $500 million is fixed through 2026, and $1.3 billion is fixed through 2029. For more detailed explanations on our debt structure and New Credit Facility, refer to “Liquidity and Capital Resources” earlier in Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 9, “Debt and Other Financing Arrangements” in our condensed consolidated financial statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

We estimate the fair value of our long-term debt at June 30, 2021 was approximately 103% of its book value. A one percentage point increase or decrease in interest rates related to our variable interest rate debt would increase or decrease the annual interest expense we recognize in the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and the cash we pay for interest expense by approximately $31 million.

59


Equity Price Risk
We have certain employee compensation arrangements that are valued based on the Tenneco Inc. stock price and settled in cash. These plans, including deferred compensation, and share-based cash-settled share units granted under our Long-Term Incentive Plan had the following share equivalents outstanding as of June 30, 2021:

June 30,
2021
December 31,
2020
Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) 1,758,443 1,878,220
Performance Share Units (PSUs) 2,990,493 — 
4,748,936 1,878,220
Deferred compensation arrangements 1,584,039 1,125,605

As of June 30, 2021, a change in the Tenneco Inc. share price of 10% would cause a change to the compensation liability of approximately $5 million, and would change the cash payout of all share equivalents, once fully vested at 100%, by $12 million.

We selectively use financial instruments to reduce the market risk associated with our deferred compensation and share-based, cash-settled liabilities, which increase as our stock price increases, and decrease as our stock price decreases. These financial instruments move in the opposite direction of the compensation liabilities, allowing us to mitigate a portion of the risk associated with changes in the Tenneco Inc. share price. As of June 30, 2021, we had 3,200,000 common share equivalents of these financial instruments.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), as the end of the quarter covered by this report.

Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2021 to ensure information required to be disclosed by our Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, there were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Note 12, “Commitments and Contingencies”, in our condensed consolidated financial statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

We are exposed to certain risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the Risk Factors described in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. The risks described herein or in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing us. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor to assess the effect such risk factors might have on our business, financial condition and operating results, or the extent to which any such risk factor or combination of risk factors may affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic has had and is expected to continue to have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
In late 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was first detected in Wuhan, China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic, and governmental authorities around the world have implemented measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19. These measures have adversely affected workforces, customers, consumer sentiment, economies, and financial markets, and, along with decreased consumer spending, reductions in revenue, and delays in payments from customers and partners, have led to an economic downturn in many of our markets. As a result of COVID-19, and in response to government mandates or recommendations, as well as decisions made to protect the health and safety of employees, consumers and communities, we and our customers have experienced significant closures and instances of reduced operations and limited access at corporate offices and other facilities which may negatively impact productivity and cause other disruptions to our business.

In mid-2020, there was some loosening of government-mandated COVID-19 restrictions in certain locales in response to improved COVID-19 infection levels. However, upon worsening COVID-19 infection levels in certain localities in late 2020 and in early 2021, local governmental authorities in these localities have either re-imposed some or all of earlier restrictions or imposed other restrictions, all in an effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Also, in early 2021, vaccines for combatting COVID-19 were approved by health agencies in certain countries/regions in which we operate (including the U.S., U.K., European Union, Canada and Mexico) and began to be administered. The availability of COVID-19 vaccines and their take-up by individuals is difficult to predict and vaccination levels are likely to vary across jurisdictions. The pace and shape of the COVID-19 recovery as well as the impact and extent of COVID-19 variants or potential resurgences is not presently known.

While certain measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19 continue to be scaled back or done away with throughout 2021, we may face new or longer term requirements and other operational restrictions due to, among other factors, future variants of COVID-19, vaccination rates and effectiveness, and evolving governmental restrictions. Although vaccines have proven to be effective in mitigating the risks of continued spread of COVID-19, there is no guarantee that the vaccines will continue to be effective against future variants. In particular, given recent resurgences in the COVID-19 pandemic, the timing and effectiveness of global efforts to roll out vaccines and the impacts of COVID-19 variants around the world, we may have to re-institute earlier measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19.

The uncertainties created by the COVID-19 global pandemic, including the severity, duration and possible resurgence of the outbreak, vaccination rates and impacts, and additional actions that may be taken by governmental authorities make it difficult to forecast the effects of the virus on the Company’s future results, including our ability to execute our near-term and long-term business strategies and initiatives in the expected time frame. Additionally, it is possible that we may experience businesses being shut down, additional work restrictions and supply chain disruptions as well as labor shortages as a result of COVID-19, further disrupting operations and impacting revenues negatively. We may also face unforeseen liabilities as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, including as a result of claims alleging exposure to COVID-19 in connection with our facilities or operations or we may be subject to fines or penalties to the extent we fail to comply with applicable requirements. To the extent the COVID-19 global pandemic adversely affects our business and financial results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in our ‘‘Risk Factors’’ section, such as those relating to our level of indebtedness, our need to generate sufficient cash flows to service our indebtedness, our ability to comply with the covenants contained in the agreements that govern our indebtedness and to have access to sufficient liquidity through the COVID-19 pandemic, decreased revenue from loss of customer market share, and working capital requirements.
