| | Management's Discussion and Analysis |
GENERAL DEVELOPMENTS
•In February 2023, Westport announced a plan to invest up to $10.0 million in a global manufacturing facility in Changzhou Hydrogen Valley, China.
•In March 2023, Westport signed a third global heavy-duty OEM collaboration agreement to demonstrate Hydrogen HPDI fuel system on an internal combustion engine platform. This collaboration will be funded by the OEM with work commencing immediately and expected to continue throughout 2023.
•In April 2023, we entered into a settlement agreement with Cartesian Capital Group to terminate the Tranche 1 Financing and Consent Agreement in exchange for mutual releases and cash consideration, which included the release of the security interest in our HPDI 2.0 fuel system intellectual property. We paid Cartesian Capital Group $8.7 million, which resulted in the extinguishment of the long-term royalty payable and a loss on extinguishment on royalty payable of $2.9 million.
•In May 2023, Westport showcased its market ready HPDI™ fuel system for commercial vehicles at the Advanced Clean Transportation Expo 2023.
•In June 2023, we completed the share consolidation of our issued and outstanding common shares on a 10:1 basis and regained compliance with NASDAQ's minimum bid requirement. No fractional common shares were issued and any fractional shares were rounded down to the nearest whole common shares. Effective this quarter, the number of outstanding common shares and share units issued have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented.
•In July 2023, Westport and the Volvo Group signed a letter of intent to establish a joint venture to reduce CO2 emissions from long-hual transport utilizing HPDI technology to accelerate the decarbonization efforts of global OEM customers.
•In August 2023, we announced the expansion of the previously awarded Euro 7 program to develop and supply LPG fuel systems for several vehicle applications for a global OEM. This expanded program is forecasted to generate approximately €63 million in total revenue from 2025 to 2028 and increases the revenue generated from LPG fuel system supply agreements for Euro 6 and 7 programs with this OEM to approximately €255 million.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
Westport is a global company focused on engineering, manufacturing, and supplying alternative fuel systems and components for transportation applications. Our diverse product offerings, sold under a wide range of established global brands, enable the use of a number of alternative fuels in the transportation sector which provide environmental and/or economic advantages as compared to diesel, gasoline, batteries or fuel cell powered vehicles. The Company's fuel systems and associated components control the pressure and flow of these alternative fuels, including LPG, compressed natural gas ("CNG"), liquified natural gas ("LNG"), renewable natural gas ("RNG") or biomethane, and hydrogen. We supply our products in more than 70 countries through a network of distributors, service providers for the aftermarket and directly to OEMs and Tier 1 and Tier 2 OEM suppliers. We also provide delayed OEM (“DOEM”) offerings and engineering services to our customers and partners globally. Today, our products and services are available for passenger car and light-, medium- and heavy-duty truck and off-road applications.
| | | | | | | | |
| | Management's Discussion and Analysis |
The majority of our revenues are generated through the following IAM and OEM businesses:
| | | | | |
| Independent Aftermarket ("IAM") | We sell systems and components across a wide range of brands, primarily through a global network of distributors that consumers can purchase and have installed onto their vehicles to use LPG or CNG fuels, in addition to gasoline. |
| |
| OEM Businesses | |
| Heavy-duty OEM | We sell systems and components, including HPDI 2.0 fuel system products, to engine OEMs and commercial vehicle OEMs. Our fully integrated HPDI 2.0 fuel systems, enables diesel engines using primarily natural gas fuel to match the power, torque, and fuel economy benefits found in traditional compression ignition engines, resulting in reduced greenhouse gas emissions and the capability to cost-effectively run on renewable fuels. |
| Delayed OEM | We directly or indirectly convert new passenger cars for OEMs or importers, to address local market needs when a global LPG or CNG bi-fuel vehicle platform is not available directly from the OEM. |
| Light-duty OEM | We sell systems and components to OEMs that are used to manufacture new, direct off the assembly line LPG or CNG-fueled vehicles. |
| Electronics | We design, industrialize and assemble electronic control modules. |
| Hydrogen | We design, develop, produce and sell hydrogen components for transportation and industrial applications. Also, we are adapting our HPDI fuel systems to use hydrogen or hydrogen/natural gas blends in internal combustion engines. |
| Fuel storage | We manufacture LPG fuel storage solutions and supply fuel storage tanks to the aftermarket, OEM, and other market segments. |
RISKS, LONG-TERM PROFITABILITY & LIQUIDITY
Global Supply Chain Challenges and Inflationary Environment
Westport continues to experience supply chain challenges in order to source semiconductors and other inputs to production due to supply shortages that continue to plague the automotive industry. While demand for more climate-friendly vehicles with favorable fuel price economics is growing, the global shortage of semiconductors and raw materials is impacting automotive manufacturing and creating bottlenecks. We expect that the global semiconductor supply and raw materials shortages affecting the automotive industry will continue to impact our business for the foreseeable future. Aside from aforementioned shortages, we are experiencing inflationary pressure on production input costs for semiconductors, raw materials and parts, higher energy costs in operating our factories, and increased labor costs that are impacting margins. The prolonged supply chain disruption continues to have material impacts on production delays and end-customer demand declines. We are closely monitoring and making efforts to mitigate the impact of the global shortage of semiconductors, raw materials and parts on our businesses, however, we do not expect this shortage to impact our long-term growth.
Russia-Ukraine conflict
We conduct a portion of our light-duty OEM and IAM businesses in Russia by selling our products to numerous OEMs and other IAM customers. Our Russian business has been a growing and important market for gaseous fuel systems and components. Due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine in late February 2022, the United States, European Union, Canada and other Western countries and organizations have announced and enacted numerous sanctions against Russia to impose severe economic pressure on the Russian economy and government. The sanctions have had a significant impact on our ability to conduct business with our Russian customers due to restrictions caused by ownership and the ability of some Russian customers to pay for goods because of banking restrictions. In addition, recent limitations and restrictions imposed on the export of Russian natural gas have had a significant impact on the price of natural gas (see "Fuel Prices" below). While the full impact of the commercial and economic consequences of the conflict are uncertain at this time, revenues generated in the Russian market were $4.3 million and $7.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $1.3 million and $4.3 million for the same periods in 2022, with the increase of revenue from both light-duty OEM and IAM businesses. We have realized growth on our 2023 revenue compared to 2022; however, we cannot provide assurance that future developments in the Russian-Ukraine conflict will not continue to have an adverse impact on the ongoing operations and financial condition of our business in Russia.
| | | | | | | | |
| | Management's Discussion and Analysis |
Fuel Prices
Although we have seen a recent decline in LNG and CNG pricing, it remained above historical levels in the first half of 2023. This volatility extends to liquid fuels including crude oil, diesel, and gasoline, given uncertainty in supply levels and European geopolitical risk due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Higher gaseous fuel price negatively impacts the price differential of gaseous fuels versus diesel and gasoline, which may impact our customers' decisions to adopt such gaseous fuels as a transportation energy solution in the short-term. We continue to observe softness in demand in our heavy-duty and light-duty OEM sales volumes caused by the uncertainty over the elevated prices of CNG and LNG relative to diesel and gasoline in Europe. Despite pressure on CNG and LNG prices, the increased LPG price differential to gasoline in Europe since the end of 2022 continued in the first half of 2023 and was favourable to customer demand, which supported increased sales in our IAM and our Fuel Storage businesses.
Long-term Profitability and Liquidity
We continue to observe high inflationary pressures, global supply chain disruptions, higher interest rates and volatile fuel prices which negatively affect customer demand going forward and have an adverse impact on our production and cost structure.
We believe that we have considered all possible impacts of known events arising from the risks discussed above related to supply chain, fuel prices, and the Russian-Ukraine conflict in the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. However, changes in circumstances due to the forementioned risks could affect our judgments and estimates associated with our liquidity and other critical accounting assessments.
We continue to generate operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities primarily due to the lack of scale in our heavy-duty OEM business. Despite customer interest in HPDI 2.0 fuel systems, sales of our HPDI 2.0 fuel systems to Volvo Trucks continue to be adversely affected by the impact of the continued volatility in natural gas prices and decreasing end-customer demand. Cash used in operating activities was $8.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Despite the successful monetization of the CWI joint venture's intellectual property and the sale of CWI in the first quarter of 2022, the loss of income from the equity interest in the former CWI business has a significant impact on our annual cash flows. In July 2023, we signed a non-binding letter of intent with Volvo Group to establish a joint venture ("HPDI JV") with the intention to accelerate the commercialization and global adoption of our HPDI fuel system technology.
As at June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $52.3 million. Although we believe we have sufficient liquidity to continue as a going concern beyond August 2024, the long-term financial sustainability will depend on our ability to generate sufficient positive cash flows from all of our operations specifically through working capital improvement, profitable and sustainable growth and on our ability to finance our long-term strategic objectives and operations. In addition to new customer announcements, entering new markets and the recent announcement of the signing of letter of intent to establish HPDI JV with Volvo Group, we are focused on improving profitability through growth in our heavy-duty OEM business driving economies of scale and improvements in our light-duty OEM and IAM businesses, including pricing measures and manufacturing strategies driving margin expansion. If, as a result of future events, we were to determine we were no longer able to continue as a going concern, significant adjustments would be required to the carrying value of assets and liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the adjustments could be material.

| | Management's Discussion and Analysis |
SECOND QUARTER 2023 RESULTS
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased 6% to $85.0 million compared to $80.0 million in the same quarter last year, primarily driven by increased sales volumes in delayed OEM, electronics, fuel storage businesses and additional revenues from the IAM business generated from Eastern Europe and South America markets. These were offset by lower sales to customers in India in the light-duty OEM business and lower sales volumes in the hydrogen and heavy-duty OEM businesses.
We reported a net loss of $13.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to net loss of $11.6 million for the same quarter last year. This was primarily the result of:
•$2.9 million loss on extinguishment due to the settlement of the Cartesian royalty payable;
•$1.5 million increase in general and administrative expenses related to increased consulting, staff compensation, and travel costs; and
•$0.9 million increase in sales and, marketing expenses related to outside services used for trade shows, exhibitions and advertising;
•which was partially offset by an increase in gross margin of $3.9 million related to higher revenues.
Westport reported negative $4.0 million Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA", see "Non-GAAP Measures" section in this MD&A) during the second quarter as compared to negative $4.3 million Adjusted EBITDA for the same period in 2022.

R&D expenses expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $4.7 million and $11.0 million compared to $4.1 million and $8.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The increases compare to the same periods in the prior year are mainly due to increased engineering resources for our HPDI fuel systems and R&D expenses related to our Hydrogen business.

Other significant expense and income items for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023
Foreign exchange gains and losses reflect net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and net unrealized gains and losses on our net U.S. dollar denominated monetary assets and liabilities in our Canadian operations that were mainly comprised of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable. In addition, we have foreign exchange exposure on Euro denominated monetary assets and liabilities where the functional currency of the subsidiary is not the Euro. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized foreign exchange losses of $2.4 million and $3.5 million, respectively, compared to foreign exchange losses of $2.6 million and $3.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The foreign exchange losses recognized in the current quarter were primarily driven by unrealized foreign exchange losses that resulted from the translation of Euro dominated debt in our Argentinian subsidiary as well as our U.S. dollar denominated debt in our Canadian legal entities.
Depreciation and amortization for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $3.0 million and $6.0 million, compared to $3.1 million and $6.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The amounts included in cost of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $2.0 million and $4.0 million, respectively, compared with $2.0 million and $3.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

The decreases in interest expense on long-term debt for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior year period was primarily due to the extinguishment of the royalty payable, partially offset by increased interest rates in the current period.
Income tax expense was $0.2 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to income tax expense of $0.1 million and income tax recovery of $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in income tax expense during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 was mainly due to higher taxes from higher profitability of our European operations.

CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS, RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Our cash and cash equivalents position decreased by $19.7 million during the second quarter of 2023 to $52.3 million from $72.0 million at March 31, 2023 and decreased by $33.9 million during the first six months of 2023 from $86.2 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease in cash during the three months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by net cash used in our financing activities for the settlement of the long-term royalty payable and net repayment of debt, and purchase of equipment.
Cash Used In Operating Activities
Higher natural gas prices, especially in Europe, global supply chain disruptions and high inflation continue to challenge the automotive industry with rising manufacturer costs, this is causing pressure on gross margin and gross margin percentage in the near-term. We are responding with pricing and productivity countermeasures to manage our profitability. For further discussion, see the "Long-term Profitability and Liquidity" sections in this MD&A. These conditions continue to persist. Consequently, the duration and severity of the impact on future quarters is currently uncertain.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, our net cash used in operating activities was $0.0 million, a decrease of $16.5 million from net cash used of $16.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by the change in working capital, specifically in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses. We had built up inventory to manage against supply chain risk against shortages of raw materials and components. We continue to take actions to monetize the existing inventory and optimize our inventory levels as well as our continuous efforts in collecting from our accounts receivable during the current quarter.
Cash Flow Used In Investing Activities
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, our net cash used in investing activities was $4.9 million compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily driven by increased capital investments of $1.7 million to $4.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $3.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Cash Flow Used In Financing Activities
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, our net cash used in financing activities was $15.0 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $8.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. In the current quarter, we repaid $8.7 million to settle our long-term royalty obligation with Cartesian and reduced the borrowing from our revolving financing facilities compared to the same period last year.

SHARES OUTSTANDING
On June 1, 2023, we completed a consolidation of our issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of one common share to ten common shares (see note 16 of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements). Effective this quarter, the shares of outstanding common stock and share units have been retroactively restated for all periods presented. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the weighted average number of shares used in calculating the basic and diluted loss per share was 17,173,252 and 17,119,893, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the weighted average number of shares used in calculating the basic and diluted loss per share was 17,171,137 and 17,117,719, respectively.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements. We have identified several policies as critical to our business operations and in understanding our results of operations. These policies, which require the use of judgment, estimates and assumptions in determining their reported amounts, include the assessment of liquidity and going concern, warranty liability, revenue recognition, inventories and property, plant and equipment. The application of these and other accounting policies are described in note 3 of our annual consolidated financial statements and our MD&A, for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed on March 13, 2023. Actual amounts may vary significantly from estimates used. There have been no significant changes in accounting policies applied to the June 30, 2023 unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and we do not expect to adopt any significant changes at this time.
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES AND INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
SUMMARY OF QUARTERLY RESULTS
Our revenues and operating results can vary significantly from quarter to quarter depending on the timing of product deliveries, product mix, product launch dates, R&D project cycles, timing of related government funding, impairment charges, restructuring charges, stock-based compensation awards and foreign exchange impacts. Net income and net loss have and can vary significantly from one quarter to another depending on operating results, gains and losses from investing activities, recognition of tax benefits and other similar events.

| | Management's Discussion and Analysis |
Non-GAAP Measures:
In addition to the results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we used EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, gross margin, gross margin as a percentage of revenue, net working capital, and non-current liabilities (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Measures") throughout this MD&A. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide additional information that is useful to stakeholders in understanding our underlying performance and trends through the same financial measures employed by our management. We believe that EBIT, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to both management and investors in their analysis of our ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to fund working capital needs, service debt obligations and fund capital expenditures. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures in its review and evaluation of the financial performance of the Company. EBITDA is also frequently used by stakeholders for valuation purposes whereby EBITDA is multiplied by a factor or "EBITDA multiple" that is based on an observed or inferred relationship between EBITDA and market values to determine the approximate total enterprise value of a company. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures also provide additional insight to stakeholders as supplemental information to our U.S. GAAP results and as a basis to compare our financial performance period-over-period and to compare our financial performance with that of other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons of our core operating results from period to period and to other companies by, in the case of EBITDA, removing the effects of our capital structure (net interest income on cash deposits, interest expense on outstanding debt and debt facilities), asset base (depreciation and amortization) and tax consequences. Adjusted EBITDA provides this same indicator of Westport's EBITDA from operations and removing such effects of our capital structure, asset base and tax consequences, but additionally excludes any unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses, stock-based compensation charges and other one-time impairments and costs that are not expected to be repeated in order to provide greater insight into the cash flow being produced from our operating business, without the influence of extraneous events. Readers should be aware that non-GAAP measures have no standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP and accordingly may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures by other companies. Non-GAAP measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

1. Company organization and operations:
Westport Fuel Systems Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) on March 20, 1995. Westport Fuel Systems is a global company focused on engineering, manufacturing, and supplying alternative fuel systems and components for transportation applications. The Company’s diverse product offerings sold under a wide range of established global brands enable the use of a number of alternative fuels in the transportation sector which provide environmental and/or economic advantages as compared to diesel, gasoline, batteries or fuel cell powered vehicles. The Company's fuel systems and associated components control the pressure and flow of these alternative fuels, including liquid petroleum gas ("LPG"), compressed natural gas ("CNG"), liquified natural gas ("LNG"), renewable natural gas ("RNG") or biomethane, and hydrogen. The Company supplies its products in more than 70 countries through a network of distributors, service providers for the aftermarket and directly to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and Tier 1 and Tier 2 OEM suppliers. The Company’s products and services are available for passenger car and light-, medium- and heavy-duty truck and off-road applications.
2. Liquidity and going concern:
In connection with preparing consolidated financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, the Company is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Substantial doubt exists when conditions and events, considered in aggregate, indicate that it is probable that a company will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans and actions that have not been fully implemented as of the date that the financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both: (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued; and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Generally, to be considered probable of being effectively implemented, the plans must have been approved before the date that the financial statements are issued.
Management's evaluation has concluded that there are no known or currently foreseeable conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements ("interim financial statements") are issued. These interim financial statements have therefore been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern.
The assessment of liquidity and going concern requires the Company to make judgments about the existence of conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these interim financial statements are issued. This includes judgments about the Company's future activities and the timing thereof and estimates of future cash flows. Significant assumptions used in the Company's forecasted model of liquidity include forecasted sales, including forecasted increases in sales of the heavy-duty OEM business, forecasted costs and capital expenditures, amongst others. Changes in the assumptions could have a material impact on the forecasted liquidity and going concern assessment.
The Company continues to sustain operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities. As at June 30, 2023, the Company has cash and cash equivalents of $52,265 and cash flow used in operating activities of $8,628 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily driven by the operating losses of $22,670 and an increase in working capital. The Company's short-term and long-term debt was $46,256, net of deferred financing fees, of which $19,621 of these debts mature within one year from June 30, 2023. The Company has a term loan with Export Development Canada (“EDC”), which has a covenant requiring the Company to maintain a $40,000 minimum balance of cash and cash equivalents. If the Company’s cash and cash equivalents fall below the minimum cash requirement, the Company may be required to repay the outstanding amount of the term loan, which was $12,719 at June 30, 2023.

2. Liquidity and going concern (continued):
The Company is closely monitoring and making efforts to mitigate the impact on the business from global supply chain shortages of semiconductors, raw materials and other parts. Besides shortages, the Company is incurring inflationary pressure on production input costs from sourcing semiconductors, raw materials and parts, higher energy costs in operating the Company's factories and increased labor costs that are impacting margins. The Company sources components globally and is exposed to price risk and inflation risk, which may affect the Company's liquidity.
Management is closely monitoring its financial condition and is working on initiatives to reduce its working capital and increase profitability to improve its cash flow from operating activities. The Company’s current financial projections expect meaningful collections of accounts receivable from key customers and a reduction in inventory levels across the Company’s operations.
The ability to continue as a going concern beyond August 2024 will depend on the Company's ability to generate sufficient positive cash flows from its operations, specifically through working capital improvement, profitable and sustainable growth, and the Company's ability to finance its long-term strategic objectives and operations. If, as a result of future events, the Company was to determine it was no longer able to continue as a going concern, significant adjustments would be required to the carrying value of assets and liabilities in the accompanying, consolidated financial statements and the adjustments could be material.

3. Basis of preparation:
(a) Basis of presentation:
The interim financial statements have been prepared by the Company and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). In the opinion of management, all normal recurring accruals and adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the interim financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(b) Foreign currency translation:
The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar and its reporting currency for its interim financial statement presentation is the United States dollar (“U.S. dollar”). The functional currencies for the Company's subsidiaries include the following: U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, Euro, Argentina Peso, Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”), Swedish Krona, Indian Rupee, and Polish Zloty. The Company translates assets and liabilities of non-U.S. dollar functional currency operations using the period end exchange rates, shareholders’ equity balances using the weighted average of historical exchange rates, and revenues and expenses using the monthly average rate for the period, with the resulting exchange differences recognized in other comprehensive income.
Transactions that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of the Company’s or its subsidiaries' operations are translated at the rates in effect on the date of the transaction. Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to the applicable functional currency at the exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the historical exchange rate. All foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in the statement of operations, except for the translation gains and losses arising from available-for-sale instruments, which are recorded through other comprehensive income until realized through disposal or impairment.
Except as otherwise noted, all amounts in these interim financial statements are presented in thousands of U.S. dollars. For the periods presented, the Company used the following exchange rates:

11. Operating leases right-of-use assets and lease liabilities:
The Company has entered into various non-cancellable operating lease agreements primarily for its manufacturing facilities and offices.

16. Share capital, stock options and other stock-based plans:
On June 1, 2023, the Company completed a consolidation of its issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of one new post-consolidation common share for every ten existing pre-consolidation common shares (the "Consolidation"). No fractional common shares were issued and any fractional shares were rounded down to the nearest whole common shares. Effective this quarter, the number of outstanding common shares and share units issued have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued 3,039 and 44,656 common shares, respectively, net of cancellations and round down of fractional common shares as a result of the Consolidation, upon exercises of share units (three and six months ended June 30, 2022 – 3,898 and 41,971 common shares, respectively). The Company issues shares from treasury to satisfy share unit exercises.
(a) Share Units (“Units”):
The value assigned to issued Units and the amounts accrued are recorded as other equity instruments. As Units are exercised or vest and the underlying shares are issued from treasury of the Company, the value is reclassified to share capital.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized $803 and $1,503, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2022 - $864 and $1,395, respectively) of stock-based compensation associated with the Westport Omnibus Plan.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 375,339 share units were granted to certain employees and directors (2022 - 253,328). This included 147,557 restricted share units (“RSUs”) (2022 - 131,189), 150,155 performance share units (“PSUs”) (2022 - 122,139) and 77,627 deferred share units ("DSUs") (2022 - Nil DSUs). Values of RSU and DSU awards are generally determined based on the fair market value of the underlying common shares on the date of grant. RSUs typically vest over a three-year period so the actual value received by the individual depends on the share price on the day such RSUs are settled for common shares, not the date of grant. Vesting of DSUs occurs, immediately prior to the resignation, retirement or termination of directorship, in accordance with the terms of Westport's Omnibus Plan The value of PSU awards is determined using the Monte–Carlo simulation model. PSU awards do not have a certain number of common shares that will issue over time, but are based on future performance and other conditions tied to the payout of the PSU.
As at June 30, 2023, $5,596 of compensation cost related to Units awarded has yet to be recognized in results from operations and will be recognized ratably over two years.

18. Commitments and contingencies:
(a) Contractual commitments
The Company is a party to a variety of agreements in the ordinary course of business under which it is obligated to indemnify a third party with respect to certain matters. Typically, these obligations arise as a result of contracts for sale of the Company’s product to customers where the Company provides indemnification against losses arising from matters such as product liabilities. The potential impact on the Company’s financial results is not subject to reasonable estimation because considerable uncertainty exists as to whether claims will be made and the final outcome of potential claims. To date, the Company has not incurred significant costs related to these types of indemnifications.
(b) Contingencies
The Company is engaged in certain legal actions and tax audits in the ordinary course of business and believes that, based on the information currently available, the ultimate outcome of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results, liquidity or financial position.

The short-term and long-term investments represent the Company's interests in Minda Westport Technologies Limited, Weichai Westport Inc. ("WWI") and other investments. Minda Westport Technologies Limited is the most significant of the investments and is accounted for using the equity method. WWI and other investments are accounted for at fair value.
The carrying values reported in the condensed consolidated interim balance sheet for obligations under capital and operating leases, which are based upon discounted cash flows, approximate their fair values.

20. Financial Instruments (continued):
The Company categorizes its fair value measurements for items measured at fair value on a recurring basis into three categories as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| | | |
| | Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
| | | |
| | Level 3 – | Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). |
When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine fair value and classify such items in Level 1. When necessary, Level 2 valuations are performed based on quoted market prices for similar instruments in active markets and/or model–derived valuations with inputs that are observable in active markets. Level 3 valuations are undertaken in the absence of reliable Level 1 or Level 2 information.
As at June 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are included in Level 1.
