NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 -  BUSINESS ACTIVITY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended April 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending January 31, 2012. The information contained in the balance sheet as of January 31, 2011 was derived from the audited financial statements for Titan Machinery Inc. (the “Company”) for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2011 as filed with the SEC.

Nature of Business

Titan Machinery Inc. is engaged in the retail sale, service and rental of agricultural and construction equipment through stores in North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Montana, Wyoming and Wisconsin.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Transportation Solutions, LLC. All significant accounts, transactions and profits between the consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash, receivables, payables, short-term debt and other current liabilities approximates fair value because of the short maturity and/or frequent repricing of those instruments. Based upon current borrowing rates with similar maturities, the carrying value of the long-term debt approximates the fair value as of April 30, 2011 and January 31, 2011.

Recent Accounting Guidance

In May 2011, the FASB amended authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, codified in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The amended guidance results in common fair value measurements and disclosure requirements for financial statements reported under U.S. GAAP or International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). These amendments clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements and change particular principles or requirements for measuring fair value and disclosing information about fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, and is applied prospectively. The Company is in the process of determining the impact that this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB amended authoritative guidance on business combinations, codified in ASC 805, Business Combinations. This guidance clarifies that, when presenting comparative financial statements, registrants should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the current period business combinations had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. The guidance also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The guidance is effective prospectively for material (either on an individual or aggregate basis) business combinations entered into in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010 with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on February 1, 2011. Its adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB amended authoritative guidance on goodwill impairment testing, codified in ASC 305, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. This guidance modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts, and requires performance of Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test for such reporting units if it is more likely than not that, when considering qualitative factors, an impairment exists. The Company adopted this guidance on February 1, 2011. Its adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB updated authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, codified in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. This guidance required additional disclosure of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. It also clarified existing disclosure requirements regarding level of disaggregation and valuation inputs and techniques. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure of the Level 3 activity, which is effective for interim and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company adopted these provisions on February 1, 2010, except for the Level 3 activity disclosures, which the Company adopted on February 1, 2011. Its adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on revenue recognition, codified in ASC 605-25, Revenue Recognition. This guidance modifies the fair value requirements of revenue recognition on multiple element arrangements by allowing the use of the “best estimate of selling price” in addition to vendor specific objective evidence and third-party evidence for determining the selling price of a deliverable. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is based on: (a) vendor-specific objective evidence, (b) third-party evidence, or (c) estimates. In addition, the guidance eliminates the residual method of allocation and significantly expands the disclosure requirements for such arrangements. The Company adopted this guidance on February 1, 2011. Its adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the denominator for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

There were 138,500 stock options outstanding as of April 30, 2010, that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive. There were no stock options outstanding as of April 30, 2011 that were anti-dilutive.

NOTE 2 -  INVENTORIES

In addition to the above amounts, the Company has estimated that a portion of its parts inventory will not be sold in the next year. Accordingly, these balances have been classified as noncurrent assets.

NOTE 3 -  LINES OF CREDIT / FLOORPLAN NOTES PAYABLE

Operating Line of Credit

As of April 30, 2011, the Company had a $50.0 million working capital line of credit under a Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “Credit Agreement”) with a group of banks led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. The Company had $26.4 million outstanding on its operating lines of credit as of April 30, 2011 and January 31, 2011. Amounts outstanding are recorded as long-term debt, within long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, as the Company does not have the intention or obligation to repay amounts borrowed within one year.

Floorplan Lines of Credit

As of April 30, 2011, the Company had discretionary floorplan lines of credit for equipment purchases totaling approximately $550.0 million with various lending institutions, including $175.0 million under the aforementioned Credit Agreement, a $300.0 million Wholesale Floorplan Credit Facility with CNH Capital America LLC (“CNH Capital”) and a $75.0 million Wholesale Financing Plan with Rental Agreement with Agricredit Acceptance LLC. Floorplan notes payable relating to these credit facilities totaled approximately $329.1 million of the total floorplan notes payable balance of $354.4 million outstanding as of April 30, 2011 and $300.6 million of the total floorplan notes payable balance of $320.8 million outstanding as of January 31, 2011. As of April 30, 2011, the Company had approximately $213.8 million in available borrowings remaining under these lines of credit. These floorplan notes carried various interest rates primarily ranging from 2.21% to 7.25% as of April 30, 2011, subject to interest-free periods offered by CNH Capital. As of April 30, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all floorplan financial covenants.

NOTE 4 -  BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

The Company continued to implement its strategy of consolidating dealerships in desired market areas. Below is a summary of the acquisitions completed for the three months ended April 30, 2011. In certain of the business combination transactions the Company recognized goodwill. Factors contributing to the recognition of goodwill include an evaluation of enterprise value, historical financial performance, and proximity to other existing and future planned Company locations. Pro forma results are not presented as the acquisitions are not considered material, individually or in aggregate, to the Company. The results of operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated results of operations since the date of each respective business combination.

On February 28, 2011, the Company acquired certain assets of Tri-State Implement, Inc. The acquired entity consisted of one agricultural equipment store located in Sioux Falls, South Dakota which is contiguous to the Company’s existing construction equipment location in Sioux Falls.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company established plans to consolidate the operations of its Belgrade, Montana store with the recently acquired store in Bozeman, Montana. The Company expects to close the Belgrade store by July 31, 2011, and will account for all exit costs related to this closure in accordance with ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations. The Company expects the primary costs to relate to terminating our lease agreement, which has average monthly minimum lease payments of approximately $7,500 and expires on December 31, 2018. The Company will record a liability for the net present value of any remaining lease obligations, net of estimated sublease income, at the date it ceases using the property, in accordance with ASC 420.

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of Part 1 of this Quarterly Report, and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2011.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes in our Critical Accounting Policies, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2011.

Overview

We own and operate a network of full service agricultural and construction equipment stores in the United States. Based upon information provided to us by CNH Global N.V. or its U.S. subsidiary CNH America LLC, collectively referred to in this Form 10-K as CNH, we are the world’s largest retail dealer of Case IH Agriculture equipment and a major retail dealer of New Holland Agriculture, Case Construction and New Holland Construction equipment in the U.S. We have two primary business segments, Agriculture and Construction, within each of which we sell and rent new and used equipment, sell parts, and service the equipment in the areas surrounding our stores.

Our net income was $7.3 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the three months ended April 30, 2011, compared to $1.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the three months ended April 30, 2010. Significant factors impacting the quarterly comparisons were:

·                  Increase in revenue due to acquisitions and same-store sales growth in both our Agriculture and Construction segments primarily resulting from the continuation of a strong agriculture equipment market and improved  construction equipment market;

·                  Increase in gross profit primarily due to increased revenue, and improvement in gross profit margin on equipment and other, including trucking and rental;

·                  Operating expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 12.4% for the three months ended April 30, 2011 compared to 14.5% for the three months ended April 30, 2010, due to improved fixed operating cost leverage resulting from higher revenue; and

·                  Decrease in floorplan interest expense due to lower interest rates associated with our new Credit Agreement entered into on October 31, 2010.
