17 Production and Manufacturing Industrial Production and Manufacturing Noticeable improvement due to resilient domestic demand and global demand Auto production to be strong through end of year Industrial production advanced 4.88 percent on a year-ago basis through August and overall output is at all time high Some pulling forward of activity to avoid tariffs so a risk of payback in near term Global and domestic demand easing

28 The 3 T s Taxes Trade & Tariffs Technology 28

29 TAXES

30 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act Key business provisions Reduces C corporation tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent Repeals alternative minimum tax Pass through non-professional businesses receive a 20 percent deduction on pass through income Immediate capital expensing Research and development credit retained Limitations on business interest expense Repeals domestic production activities deduction New net operating loss (NOL) limitations

31 Wayfair overruled Quill: Modernity finally wins Physical presence is no longer a good rule in 2018 Access to the internet: 2% (1992), 89% today Modern technology and the administrative costs of compliance are unrelated to physical presence (one salesperson in many locations versus net retailer) Revenue losses of between $8 and $33 billion collectively Mail order sales: $180b (1992); e-commerce: $450b (2017) The once bright-line rule had becoming increasing shadowy Was cookie nexus physical presence? (Massachusetts and Ohio) Was click-through nexus physical presence? (20-odd states)

32 Wayfair is not just about retail Manufacturers should consider: Reversed the impact of Quill - no longer mandates a physical presence to require collection of sales taxes. Sales tax filing requirements Sales Tax Exemption Certificate Management Accounts Payable 32

33 Income taxes got more complex what we re seeing. Deduction for passthrough entities Limitations on interest expense Use of carryforward credits International tax Transaction impact prior planning decisions may require updating GILTI, FIDI Transfer pricing State taxes could get more possessive 33

34 TRADE AND TARIFFS

35 Uncertainty 35

36 Bi-lateral, tri-lateral or geographic agreements USMCA United States, Mexico and Canada US and Canada are each others largest trading partners Key changes More auto parts from member nations 75% up from 62% Higher wages for auto workers Canada loosens dairy restriction Tariffs in place pending final resolution Japan In process South Korea In process, awaiting approval Europe Representative has visited US China 36

37 US-Global Economic Relations: A Difficult Period Ahead Global trade friction: Major 2018 policy issue This is the major risk to the domestic economic outlook in 2018 China trade war China growth slowed in Q3 to 6.2% - a significant slowing If tariffs fully implemented will shave percent off growth Pricing to be impacted with upside risk to inflation Reduces boost to economy via tax cut Reduction of purchasing power, competiveness, rising prices NAFTA Modernization: Largest impact to auto and dairy industries, few major changes, measures from TPP Rules of origin Settling trade disputes Small and medium enterprise accommodation

42 How are Manufacturers companies responding Price increases, whether or not impacted by tariffs (US manufacturing with Chinese competitors) Expand manufacturing in US or countries with lower tariffs Started with the most recent recession Global supply chains have taken years to establish Logistics pricing up Acquisitions of alternative sourcing entities Alternative routing of products via Europe, Canada can create VAT issues Substitution of materials not subject to tariffs or from other sources 42

43 Real life responses US flooring company used recession to move manufacturing back to US US manufacturer is absorbing costs in hopes of short term impact Metal fastener increased prices immediately Farm storage manufacturer evaluating price increases getting pressure from customer to hold costs Auto parts company must comply with contractual terms thereby deferring price increases 43

44 Real life responses Retailer passes costs on to customers immediately Distributor only passing along partial price increases Retailer working with suppliers and customers to have equal sharing of increase Chemical manufacturer increasing prices as certain of their raw materials only available from China Distributor working with sourcing company to move to other countries with capacity (China no longer low cost) International company evaluating global supply chain and structure (ITAX, VAT, logistics) Companies disassembling and assembling products to avoid tariffs on finished goods 44

45 TECHNOLOGY

46 Digital transformation in manufacturing ERP Systems Cloud computing (could be ERP) Process improvements, automating closing and reporting process Low-cost microprocessors to control machinery Data collection and analytics 3D Printing makes experimentation and customization inexpensive Robotics Workforce Drastically changing the skills and types of employees needed. The Number 1 issue impacting manufacturers (and all employers) 46

53 Cybersecurity risks to middle market manufacturers are real!! Access to your systems May be a connected device or a computer node Large exposure from people connecting to or sending information to your system Contingency plans Insurance coverage Ransom Policy Intrusion Testing 53

54 The Speed of Change in Intense Taxes Opportunities lie in the details Internationally active companies live in a complex world Wayfair can rear an ugly head Trade and Tariffs Understand the impact on your entire supply chain Develop a long-range plan to address trade in light of global geopolitical issues. Technology Invest, all companies are becoming technology companies Determine where digital adds value, keep evaluating the ROI Moving ahead is critical, don t get left behind 54
