GLOSSARY

In this document, Terex refers to various GAAP (U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures.  These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies.  Terex presents non-GAAP financial measures in reporting its financial results to provide investors with additional analytical tools which it believes is useful in evaluating its operating results and the ongoing performance of its underlying businesses.  Terex does not, nor does it suggest that investors consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The amounts described below are unaudited, are reported in millions of U.S. dollars (except share data and percentages), and are as of or for the period ended December 31, 2021, unless otherwise indicated.

2022 Outlook

The Company's 2022 outlook for earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure because it excludes the impact of potential future acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring, and other unusual items. The Company is not able to reconcile this forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts because the Company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the exact timing and impact of such items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's full-year 2022 GAAP financial results. This forward looking information provides guidance to investors about the Company's EPS expectations excluding unusual items that the Company does not believe is reflective of its ongoing operations.

Free Cash Flow 

The Company calculates a non-GAAP measure of free cash flow.  The Company defines free cash flow as Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, plus (minus) increases (decreases) in Terex Financial Services finance receivables consisting of sales-type leases and commercial loans ("TFS Assets"), less Capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sale of capital assets.  The Company believes that this measure of free cash flow provides management and investors further useful information on cash generation or use in our primary operations.  The following table reconciles Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities to free cash flow (in millions):

		Year Ended December 31, 2021		Year Ended December 31, 2020
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities		$                    293.4		$                    225.4
Increase (decrease) in TFS assets		(110.6)		(40.1)
Capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sale of capital assets		(57.8)		(44.0)	(1)
Free cash flow		$                    125.0		$                    141.3

(1) Includes $17.8 million of proceeds from sale of capital assets within Proceeds (payments) from the disposition of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.
