Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block]

1 – Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Rush Enterprises, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). All adjustments have been made to the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements, which, in the opinion of the Company’s management, are necessary for a fair presentation of its operating results. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. It is recommended that these interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim periods or the full fiscal year.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848),” which provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential financial reporting burden of the expected market transition away from LIBOR. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications, hedge accounting, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met through December 31, 2022. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations and related disclosures.

COVID-19 Risks and Uncertainties

While business conditions have improved significantly since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the second quarter of 2020, our industry continues to be impacted by supply chain issues generally attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic that are negatively affecting new commercial vehicle production and the availability of aftermarket parts. The Company is unable to predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on its future business and operating results due to numerous uncertainties, including the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on global economic trends and the various supply chains serving the commercial vehicle industry.

Foreign Currency Transactions

The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiary, Rush Truck Centres of Canada Limited (“RTC Canada”), is the local currency. Results of operations for RTC Canada are translated to USD using the average exchange rate on a monthly basis during each quarter. The assets and liabilities of RTC Canada are translated into USD using the exchange rate in effect on the balance sheet date. The related translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Equity Method Investment

On February 25, 2019, the Company acquired 50% of the equity interest in RTC Canada, which acquired the operating assets of Tallman Group, the largest International Truck dealer in Canada. Prior to acquiring an additional 30% equity interest on May 2, 2022, for approximately $20.0 million, the Company accounted for the equity interest in RTC Canada using the equity method of accounting. Now that the Company owns an 80% equity interest in RTC Canada, the operating results of RTC Canada are consolidated in the Consolidated Statements of Income, the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and the Consolidated Balance Sheets, as of May 2, 2022. See Note 13 – Acquisitions in the Notes to the Financial Statements for further discussion.

On January 3, 2022, a subsidiary of Cummins, Inc. acquired a 50% equity interest in Natural Gas Fuel Systems, LLC (“NGFS”) from the Company for $27.5 million. NGFS previously conducted business as Momentum Fuel Technologies. The $12.5 million gain realized on the transaction is included in Other income on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company is accounting for the business as a joint venture and recognizes the investment using the equity method. As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s investment in NGFS was $14.4 million. The Company’s equity income in NGFS is included in the line item Other income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

3 – Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is involved in litigation arising out of its operations in the ordinary course of business. The Company maintains liability insurance, including product liability coverage, in amounts deemed adequate by management. However, an uninsured or partially insured claim, or claim for which indemnification is not available, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. As of September 30, 2022, the Company believes that there are no pending claims or litigation, individually or in the aggregate, that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations. However, due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations for the fiscal period in which such resolution occurred.

Valuation and Expense Information

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718-10, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to the Company’s employees and directors, including employee stock options, restricted stock awards and employee stock purchases related to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, based on estimated fair values.

Stock-based compensation expense, calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for employee stock options, and included in selling, general and administrative expense, was $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Stock-based compensation expense was $21.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and $18.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $11.8 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested employee stock options to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years and $12.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted stock awards to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.4 years.

Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block]

6 – Financial Instruments and Fair Value

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and floor plan notes payable. The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments approximate fair value due either to their short-term nature or existence of variable interest rates, which approximate market rates. Certain methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of financial instruments as of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021. Thus, the carrying value of current assets and current liabilities approximates the fair value due to the short maturity of these items.

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is based on secondary market indicators. Because the Company’s debt is not quoted, estimates are based on each obligation’s characteristics, including remaining maturities, variable interest rate, credit rating, collateral and liquidity. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the valuation measurement inputs of its long-term debt represent, at its lowest level, current market interest rates available to the Company for similar debt and the Company’s current credit standing. The carrying amount of such debt approximates fair value.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for the fair value of financial instruments (as defined), including financial assets and financial liabilities (collectively, as defined), and the measurements of those instruments as well as disclosures related to the fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities. Such disclosures about the financial instruments, assets, and liabilities would include: (1) the fair value of the required items together with their carrying amounts (as appropriate); (2) for items for which it is not practicable to estimate fair value, disclosure would include: (a) information pertinent to estimating fair value (including, carrying amount, effective interest rate, and maturity, and (b) the reasons why it is not practicable to estimate fair value; (3) significant concentrations of credit risk including: (a) information about the activity, region, or economic characteristics identifying a concentration, (b) the maximum amount of loss the entity is exposed to based on the gross fair value of the related item, (c) policy for requiring collateral or other security and information as to accessing such collateral or security, and (d) the nature and brief description of such collateral or security; (4) quantitative information about market risks and how such risks are managed; (5) for items measured on both a recurring and nonrecurring basis information regarding the inputs used to develop the fair value measurement; and (6) for items presented in the financial statement for which fair value measurement is elected: (a) information necessary to understand the reasons for the election, (b) discussion of the effect of fair value changes on earnings, (c) a description of [similar groups] items for which the election is made and the relation thereof to the balance sheet, the aggregate carrying value of items included in the balance sheet that are not eligible for the election; (7) all other required (as defined) and desired information.

Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block]

7 – Segment Information

The Company currently has one reportable business segment - the Truck Segment. The Truck Segment includes the Company’s operation of a network of commercial vehicle dealerships throughout the United States and Ontario, Canada that provide an integrated one-stop source for the commercial vehicle needs of its customers, including retail sales of new and used commercial vehicles; aftermarket parts, service and collision center facilities; and financial services, including the financing of new and used commercial vehicle purchases, insurance products and truck leasing and rentals. The commercial vehicle dealerships are deemed a single reporting unit because they have similar economic characteristics. The Company’s chief operating decision maker considers the entire Truck Segment, not individual dealerships or departments within its dealerships, when making decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assessing its performance.

The Company also has revenues attributable to three other operating segments. These segments include a retail tire company, an insurance agency and a guest ranch operation and are included in the All Other column below. None of these segments has ever met any of the quantitative thresholds for determining reportable segments.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates performance based on income before income taxes, not including extraordinary items.

The following table contains summarized information about reportable segment revenues, segment income or loss from continuing operations and segment assets for the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):

The Company’s material revenue streams have been identified as the following: the sale of new and used commercial vehicles, arrangement of associated commercial vehicle financing and insurance contracts, the performance of commercial vehicle repair services and the sale of commercial vehicle parts. Taxes collected from customers relating to product sales and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from revenues.

The following table summarizes the Company’s disaggregated revenue by revenue source, excluding lease and rental revenue, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):

The Company did not have any material contract assets or contract liabilities on the balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. Revenues related to commercial vehicle sales, parts sales, commercial vehicle repair service, finance and the majority of other revenues are related to the Truck Segment.

Leases of Lessee and Lessor Disclosure [Text Block]

10 – Leases

Lease of Vehicles as Lessor

The Company primarily leases commercial vehicles that it owns to customers over periods of one to ten years. The Company does not separate lease and nonlease components. Nonlease components typically consist of maintenance and licensing for the commercial vehicle. The variable nonlease components are generally based on mileage. Some leases contain an option for the lessee to purchase the commercial vehicle at the end of the lease term.

The Company’s policy is to depreciate its lease and rental fleet using a straight-line method over each customer’s contractual lease term. The lease unit is depreciated to a residual value that approximates fair value at the expiration of the lease term. This policy results in the Company realizing reasonable gross margins while the unit is in service and a corresponding gain or loss on sale when the unit is sold at the end of the lease term.

Sales-type leases are recognized by the Company as lease receivables. The lessee obtains control of the underlying asset and the Company recognizes sales revenue upon lease commencement. The receivable for sales-type leases as of September 30, 2022 was $6.1 million, compared to $5.4 million as of December 31, 2021, and is reflected in the line item Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Lease and rental income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021, consisted of the following (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,

12 – Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company establishes an allowance for credit losses to present the net amount of accounts receivable expected to be collected. Under Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, the Company is required to remeasure expected credit losses for financial instruments held on the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable forecasts.

Accounts receivable consists primarily of commercial vehicle sales receivables, manufacturers’ receivables, leasing and rental receivables, parts and service receivables and other trade receivables. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses based on the probability of default, its historical rate of losses, aging and current economic conditions. The Company writes off account balances when it has exhausted reasonable collection efforts and determined that the likelihood of collection is remote. These write-offs are charged against the allowance for credit losses.

The following table summarizes the changes in the allowance for credit losses (in thousands):

	Balance December 31, 2021		Provision for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022		Write offs Against Allowance, net of Recoveries			Balance September 30, 2022

13 – Acquisitions

On December 13, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of certain of the assets of Summit Truck Group, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Summit”) which included full-service commercial vehicle dealerships and Idealease franchises in Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Tennessee and Texas. The acquisition included Summit’s dealerships representing International, IC Bus, Idealease, Isuzu and other commercial vehicle manufacturers for a purchase price of approximately $205.3 million, excluding the real property associated with the transaction. The Company financed approximately $102.0 million of the purchase price under its floor plan and lease and rental truck financing arrangements and the remainder of the purchase price was paid in cash. In addition, the Company purchased certain real property owned by Summit for a purchase price of approximately $57.0 million, which was paid in cash.

The purchase price allocation has not yet been finalized for the Summit acquisition. The Company is currently working with Summit to obtain additional information that existed at the time of the acquisition related to property and equipment, inventory and valuation of intangible assets. Management has recorded the purchase price allocations based upon currently available information about Summit.

The operations of Summit are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition. The preliminary purchase price was allocated based on the fair values of the assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition as follows (in thousands):

Goodwill	$	74,413
Franchise rights		1,581
Inventory		72,070
Property and equipment, including real estate		113,306
Other		882

Total	$	262,252

In July 2022, the Company adjusted the preliminary purchase price for inventory by $0.7 million with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill. The goodwill of $74.4 million for the Summit acquisition is primarily attributable to the synergies expected to arise after the acquisition. The goodwill acquired in the Summit acquisition will be amortized over 15 years for tax purposes.

On May 2, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of an additional 30% equity interest in RTC Canada, resulting in an 80% controlling interest in RTC Canada. The acquisition was accounted for as an acquisition achieved in stages under ASC 805, Business Combinations. The acquisition-date fair value of the previous 50% equity interest was $44.7 million, resulting in a gain of $7.0 million included in the line item Other income (expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company also recognized a reversal of deferred tax liabilities of $2.2 million and $0.6 million related to reclassification of the foreign currency translation adjustment related to the remeasurement of the Company’s previous equity method investment in RTC Canada.

As of May 2, 2022, the Company established a noncontrolling interest related to the minority holders. The fair value of the 20% noncontrolling interest in RTC Canada is estimated to be $17.8 million. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest was estimated using a combination of the income approach and a market approach. Since RTC Canada is a private company, the fair value measurement is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. The fair value estimates are based on: (i) a discount rate of 11%; (ii) a terminal value based on a long-term sustainable growth rate of 3%; (iii) financial multiples of companies in the same industry as RTC Canada; and (iv) adjustments because of the lack of control or lack of marketability that market participants would consider when estimating the fair value of the noncontrolling interest in RTC Canada.

The preliminary purchase price was allocated based on the fair values of the assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition as follows (in thousands):

Cash	$	4,310
Accounts receivable		19,072
Inventory		56,255
Property and equipment, including real estate		80,337
Floor plan notes payable		(30,501	)
Trade payables		(19,978	)
Customer deposits		(1,980	)
Accrued liabilities		(7,875	)
Notes payable		(69,545	)
Goodwill		47,939
Other		3,422
Equity investment in RTC Canada		(37,309	)
Noncontrolling interest		(17,828	)
Gain on equity method investment		(6,958	)

Total	$	19,361

The purchase price allocation has not yet been finalized. The Company is currently working with RTC Canada to obtain additional information that existed at the time of the acquisition related to property and equipment, inventory and valuation of intangible assets. Management has recorded the purchase price allocations based upon currently available information about RTC Canada. The goodwill of $47.9 million for the RTC Canada acquisition is primarily attributable to the synergies expected to arise after obtaining a controlling interest in the entity.

Prior to May 2, 2022, the Company accounted for its 50% equity interest in RTC Canada as an equity-method investment. Now that the Company owns an 80% equity interest, operations of RTC Canada are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of May 2, 2022

- Definition

Total of all stockholders' equity (deficit) items, net of receivables from officers, directors, owners, and affiliates of the entity which are attributable to the parent. The amount of the economic entity's stockholders' equity attributable to the parent excludes the amount of stockholders' equity which is allocable to that ownership interest in subsidiary equity which is not attributable to the parent (noncontrolling interest, minority interest). This excludes temporary equity and is sometimes called permanent equity.
