KAR Auction Services, Inc. Reports 2020 Financial Results

Carmel, IN, February 16, 2021 — KAR Auction Services, Inc. (NYSE: KAR), today reported its fourth quarter financial results for the period ended December 31, 2020. For the fourth quarter of 2020, the company reported revenue of $529.6 million as compared with revenue of $671.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Net income (loss) from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2020 decreased to a loss of $17.1 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, as compared with net income from continuing operations of $15.3 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2019. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 decreased to $67.5 million, as compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $122.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Operating adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations per diluted share decreased to a loss of $0.01 for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, as compared with operating adjusted net income from continuing operations per diluted share of $0.19 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the company reported revenue of $2,187.7 million as compared with revenue from continuing operations of $2,781.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the company reported net income from continuing operations of $0.5 million and a loss of $0.16 per diluted share, as compared with net income from continuing operations of $92.4 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2019. Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2020 decreased to $375.3 million, as compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $510.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Operating adjusted net income from continuing operations per diluted share decreased to $0.51 for the year ended December 31, 2020, as compared with operating adjusted net income from continuing operations per diluted share of $1.04 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The company's operating results for the year ended December 31, 2020 were significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the company recorded a $29.8 million charge for the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets in the second quarter of 2020.

Impact of COVID-19 on Company Operations
The company has been subject to numerous COVID-19-related orders and directives that have caused us to modify our business practices. All ADESA auction locations in the U.S. and Canada are offering vehicles for sale via ADESA Simulcast, DealerBlock and Simulcast+. Auction locations have resumed offering ancillary and related services, where possible and as permitted by government directives. Given the evolving health, economic, social and governmental environments, the potential impact that COVID-19 could have on our business remains uncertain. The broader implications for our business and results of operations remain uncertain and will depend on many factors outside our control, including, without limitation, the timing, extent, trajectory and duration of the pandemic, the development and availability of effective treatments and vaccines, the imposition of protective public safety measures, and the timing to which normal economic and operating conditions resumes. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, we may continue to experience materially adverse impacts to our business as a result of its impact.




2021 Guidance

The company expects net income from continuing operations of at least $90 million and Adjusted EBITDA of at least $475 million. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income from continuing operations to Adjusted EBITDA and additional assumptions used in the company's guidance.

(in millions, except per share amounts)
Annual
Guidance
Net income from continuing operations$90
Income tax expense$38
Interest expense, net of interest income$125
Depreciation and amortization$205
EBITDA$458
Adjusted EBITDA addbacks, net$17
Adjusted EBITDA$475
Effective tax rate30%
Net income from continuing operations per share - diluted *$0.30
Weighted average diluted shares *131
Operating adjusted net income per share$0.87
Weighted average diluted shares - including assumed conversion of preferred shares165

* The company used the two-class method of calculating net income from continuing operations per diluted share. Under the two-class method, net income from continuing operations is reduced by dividends and undistributed earnings to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, and the weighted average diluted shares do not assume conversion of the preferred shares to common shares.

Earnings guidance does not contemplate future items such as business development activities, strategic developments (such as restructurings, spin-offs or dispositions of assets or investments), gains/losses associated with step acquisitions, contingent purchase price adjustments, significant expenses related to litigation and changes in applicable laws and regulations (including significant accounting and tax matters). The timing and amounts of these items are highly variable, difficult to predict, and of a potential size that could have a substantial impact on the company’s reported results for any given period. Prospective quantification of these items is generally not practicable. Forward-looking non-GAAP guidance excludes amortization expense associated with acquired intangible assets, as well as one-time charges, net of taxes. See reconciliations of the company's guidance on pages 8 and 9.

Earnings Conference Call Information
KAR will be hosting an earnings conference call and webcast on Wednesday, February 17, 2021 at 8:30 a.m. EST. The call will be hosted by KAR's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, Jim Hallett, and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Eric Loughmiller.

KAR Auction Services, Inc.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, operating adjusted net income from continuing operations and operating adjusted net income from continuing operations per share as presented herein are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). They are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as substitutes for net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that these measures provide investors additional meaningful methods to evaluate certain aspects of the company’s results period over period and for the other reasons set forth below.
EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), plus interest expense net of interest income, income tax provision (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for the items of income and expense and expected incremental revenue and cost savings as described in our senior secured credit agreement covenant calculations. Management believes that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about one of the principal measures of performance used by our creditors. In addition, management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our performance.
Depreciation expense for property and equipment and amortization expense of capitalized internally developed software costs relate to ongoing capital expenditures; however, amortization expense associated with acquired intangible assets, such as customer relationships, software, tradenames and noncompete agreements are not representative of ongoing capital expenditures, but have a continuing effect on our reported results. Non-GAAP financial measures of operating adjusted net income from continuing operations and operating adjusted net income from continuing operations per share, in the opinion of the company, provide comparability of the company's performance to other companies that may not have incurred these types of non-cash expenses or that report a similar measure. In addition, operating adjusted net income from continuing operations and operating adjusted net income from continuing operations per share may include adjustments for certain other charges.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, operating adjusted net income from continuing operations and operating adjusted net income from continuing operations per share have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the results as reported under GAAP. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

(2)The effective tax rate at the end of each period presented in 2019 was used to determine the amount of income tax on the adjustments to net income. For 2020, an effective tax rate of 30% was applied to the acquired amortization expense. There was no income tax benefit related to the contingent consideration adjustment or the goodwill and other intangibles impairment because these items were not deductible for income tax purposes.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the results as reported under GAAP. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Overview of KAR Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019
Overview
For the three months ended December 31, 2020, we had revenue of $529.6 million compared with revenue of $671.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019, a decrease of 21%. Business acquired in 2020 accounted for an increase in revenue of $8.5 million or 2% of revenue. For a further discussion of revenues, gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses, see the segment results discussions below.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased $0.5 million, or 1%, to $50.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared with $50.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily the result of depreciation and amortization for the assets of businesses acquired.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $9.0 million, or 23%, to $30.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared with $39.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease was attributable to a decrease in the weighted average interest rate of approximately 1% and a decrease of $9.5 million in the average outstanding balance of corporate debt for the three months ended December 31, 2020 compared with the three
5


months ended December 31, 2019. In addition, there was a decrease in interest expense at AFC of $6.3 million, which resulted from a decrease in the average finance receivables balance and interest rates for the three months ended December 31, 2020, as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in interest expense was partially offset by an increase in interest expense on the interest rate swaps of approximately $1.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020.
Other (Income) Expense, Net
For the three months ended December 31, 2020, we had other expenses of $3.9 million compared with other income of $2.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in other (income) expense was primarily attributable to an increase in contingent consideration valuation of $4.7 million, an increase in foreign currency losses of $1.4 million and other miscellaneous items aggregating $0.3 million.

Income Taxes
We had an effective tax rate of 16.6% on a pre-tax loss for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared with an effective tax rate of 37.8% for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The 2020 rate was unfavorably impacted by expense for the increase in the estimated value of contingent consideration for which no tax benefit has been recorded, as well as a greater proportion of earnings in higher tax jurisdictions. These were partially offset by the tax benefit from deductions related to stock-based compensation expenses and other discrete benefits.
Net Income from Discontinued Operations
On June 28, 2019, the Company completed the separation of its salvage auction business, IAA, through a spin-off, creating a new independent publicly traded salvage auction company. As such, the financial results of IAA have been accounted for as discontinued operations in the comparable 2019 results presented. For the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company's financial statements included income from discontinued operations of $0.0 million and $4.5 million, respectively.
Impact of Foreign Currency
For the three months ended December 31, 2020, fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate increased revenue by $0.8 million, operating profit by $0.2 million, net income by $0.1 million and had no impact on net income per diluted share. For the three months ended December 31, 2020, fluctuations in the European exchange rate increased revenue by $4.0 million, increased operating profit by $0.3 million, decreased net income by $0.3 million and had no impact on net income per diluted share.
Overview of KAR Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019
Overview
For the year ended December 31, 2020, we had revenue of $2,187.7 million compared with revenue of $2,781.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, a decrease of 21%. Businesses acquired in 2019 and 2020 accounted for an increase in revenue of $26.8 million or 1% of revenue. For a further discussion of revenues, gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses, see the segment results discussions below.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased $2.6 million, or 1%, to $191.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with $188.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily the result of certain assets placed in service over the last twelve months.
Goodwill and Other Intangibles Impairment
In light of the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the economy, forecasts for all reporting units were revised. These economic circumstances contributed to lower sales, operating profits and cash flows at ADESA Remarketing Limited (doing business as ADESA U.K.) through the first part of 2020 as compared to 2019, and the outlook for the business was significantly reduced. As a result of the updated forecasts, an impairment analysis of goodwill and intangibles was conducted. The change in circumstances resulted in the impairment of the goodwill balance totaling $25.5 million in our ADESA Remarketing Limited reporting unit and a non-cash goodwill impairment charge was recorded for this amount in the second quarter of 2020.
6


In addition, in the second quarter of 2020, a non-cash customer relationship impairment charge of approximately $4.3 million was also recorded in the ADESA Remarketing Limited reporting unit, representing the impairment in the value of this reporting unit’s customer relationships.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $60.6 million, or 32%, to $128.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with $189.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in the weighted average interest rate of approximately 1.0% and a decrease of $360.9 million in the average outstanding balance of corporate debt for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with the year ended December 31, 2019, resulting from the pay down of debt of approximately $1.3 billion in connection with the spin-off of IAA on June 28, 2019 and a net increase in term loan debt of approximately $0.5 billion in connection with the debt refinancing on September 19, 2019. In addition, there was a decrease in interest expense at AFC of $24.9 million, which resulted from a decrease in the average finance receivables balance and interest rates for the year ended December 31, 2020, as compared with the year ended December 31, 2019.
Other (Income) Expense, Net

For the year ended December 31, 2020, we had other expenses of $2.1 million compared with other income of $7.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in other (income) expense was primarily attributable to an increase in foreign currency losses of $5.6 million and an increase in contingent consideration valuation of $4.7 million, partially offset by other miscellaneous items aggregating $0.5 million.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
In September 2019, we amended our Credit Agreement and recorded a $2.2 million pretax charge primarily resulting from the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs associated with Term Loan B-4 and Term Loan B-5.
Income Taxes
We had an effective tax rate of 90.7% for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with an effective tax rate of 29.0% for the year ended December 31, 2019. The 2020 rate was unfavorably impacted by the goodwill and other intangibles impairment charge and expense for the increase in the estimated value of contingent consideration for which no tax benefits have been recorded, as well as significantly reduced earnings and a greater proportion of earnings in higher tax jurisdictions. These were partially offset by the tax benefit from law changes, deductions related to stock-based compensation expenses and other discrete benefits.
Net Income from Discontinued Operations
On June 28, 2019, the Company completed the separation of its salvage auction business, IAA, through a spin-off, creating a new independent publicly traded salvage auction company. As such, the financial results of IAA have been accounted for as discontinued operations in the comparable 2019 results presented. For the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company's financial statements included income from discontinued operations of $0.0 million and $96.1 million, respectively.
Impact of Foreign Currency
For the year ended December 31, 2020, fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate decreased revenue by $1.2 million, operating profit by $0.3 million, net income by $0.2 million and had no impact on net income per diluted share. For the year ended December 31, 2020, fluctuations in the European exchange rate increased revenue by $5.2 million, increased operating profit by $0.1 million, decreased net income by $0.1 million and had no impact on net income per diluted share. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2020, as a result of the goodwill and other intangibles impairment in the U.K., fluctuations in the British pound exchange rate decreased net income by $0.3 million.

Impact of COVID-19 on Our Operations
The Company has been subject to numerous orders and directives that have impacted our ability to operate our business throughout North America and in Europe. As a result of restrictions on our operations, we have adjusted our business processes to meet the needs of our customers while complying with the various laws, regulations, mandates and directives in each individual market we operate. In many cases, we have had to limit the number of employees and customers within our physical locations at any given time and modify the delivery of services to our customers. However, we were able to make adjustments in our operations that have permitted us to improve performance.

New and used car retail activity was reduced to unprecedented levels in early April 2020. Auto retail operations were required to temporarily close and supply and demand for used cars was disrupted. By mid-April, we were experiencing improved retail automobile sales and demand for used vehicle supply was beginning to improve. The Company was prepared to meet the needs of the wholesale used car marketplace with its technology-based auction platforms throughout North America and in Europe. The Company believes that certain changes to its business processes that were necessitated by the COVID-19 outbreak are sustainable going forward. The Company has reduced the labor required to process wholesale auction transactions and reduced its selling, general and administrative expenses.

In March 2020, the Company had over 15,000 active employees. In early April 2020, the Company furloughed approximately 11,000 employees. Since then, we have called back approximately 6,000 of these furloughed employees. We notified approximately 5,000 furloughed employees that changes in our business processes have resulted in the elimination of their positions.

Overview of ADESA Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019
Revenue
Revenue from ADESA decreased $119.1 million, or 20%, to $464.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared with $583.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in revenue was the result of a decrease in the number of vehicles sold, partially offset by an increase in purchase vehicle sales. Businesses acquired in 2020 accounted for an increase in revenue of $8.5 million. The change in revenue included the impact of an increase in revenue of $4.0 million due to fluctuations in the European exchange rate and $0.7 million due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate.
On-premise marketplace sales are initiated online for vehicles at one of our locations across North America and include Simulcast, Simulcast+ and DealerBlock sales. Off-premise marketplace sales are initiated online and include Openlane, TradeRev, BacklotCars and ADESA Europe sales. The 23% decrease in the number of vehicles sold was primarily attributable to a 35% decrease in on-premise vehicles sold and an 8% decrease in off-premise vehicles sold. Volumes sold for the three months ended December 31, 2020 were materially impacted by the COVID-19 related restrictions placed on businesses. For the three months ended December 31, 2020 we held all sales through digital marketplaces to protect the health and well-being of our workforce and customers. All vehicles were offered online, cars were not driven through the auction lanes and we limited access to our physical locations to promote social distancing measures and help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Service revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 decreased $69.5 million, or 29%, primarily as a result of the decrease in vehicles sold. Typically consigned vehicles located at our facilities utilize our service offerings at a higher rate than off-premise vehicles.
Gross Profit
For the three months ended December 31, 2020, gross profit for ADESA decreased $56.6 million, or 27%, to $155.8 million, compared with $212.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. Gross profit for ADESA was 33.6% of revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared with 36.4% of revenue for the three
9


months ended December 31, 2019. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2020 as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2019 primarily related to the increase in purchase vehicle sales and the impact of lower volumes. The entire selling and purchase price of the vehicle is recorded as revenue and cost of services for purchased vehicles sold. Excluding purchased vehicle sales, gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 40.9% and 42.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Businesses acquired in 2020 accounted for an increase in cost of services of $5.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. We have also taken measures to reduce expenses to help protect our business while our operations have been impacted by COVID-19.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the ADESA segment decreased $24.3 million, or 16%, to $130.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared with $154.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to decreases in compensation expense of $12.4 million, severance of $8.5 million, marketing costs of $4.0 million, travel expenses of $3.1 million, bad debt expense of $2.2 million, stock-based compensation of $2.1 million, other employee related expenses of $1.3 million, telecom expenses of $1.2 million, supplies expense of $1.1 million and other miscellaneous expenses aggregating $4.5 million, partially offset by increases in incentive-based compensation of $7.8 million, costs associated with acquisitions of $5.0 million, professional fees of $2.2 million and information technology costs of $1.1 million.
Overview of ADESA Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019
Revenue
Revenue from ADESA decreased $508.9 million, or 21%, to $1,920.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with $2,429.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in revenue was the result of a decrease in the number of vehicles sold and a decrease in average revenue per vehicle sold due to the mix of vehicles sold. Businesses acquired in 2019 accounted for an increase in revenue of $18.3 million, of which approximately $12.7 million was included in "Purchased vehicle sales." Businesses acquired in 2020 accounted for an increase in revenue of $8.5 million. The change in revenue included the impact of an increase in revenue of $5.2 million due to fluctuations in the European exchange rate and a decrease of $1.1 million due to fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate.
On-premise marketplace sales are initiated online for vehicles at one of our locations across North America and include Simulcast, Simulcast+ and DealerBlock sales. Off-premise marketplace sales are initiated online and include Openlane, TradeRev, BacklotCars and ADESA Europe sales. The 19% decrease in the number of vehicles sold was comprised of a 29% decrease in on-premise vehicles sold and a 6% decrease in off-premise vehicles sold. Volumes sold for the year ended December 31, 2020 were materially impacted by the COVID-19 related restrictions placed on businesses throughout the world. Beginning the week of March 16, we experienced a significant decline in volumes, as customers began to cease operations in response to local, state and provincial directives. Throughout the second, third and fourth quarters, we held all sales through digital marketplaces to protect the health and well-being of our workforce and customers. All vehicles were offered online, cars were not driven through the auction lanes and we limited access to our physical locations to promote social distancing measures and help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020 decreased $280.8 million, or 28%, primarily as a result of the decrease in vehicles sold and COVID-19 restrictions in the second quarter that limited our on-premise service offerings. Typically consigned vehicles located at our facilities utilize our service offerings at a higher rate than off-premise vehicles.
Gross Profit
For the year ended December 31, 2020, gross profit for ADESA decreased $193.9 million, or 21%, to $714.4 million, compared with $908.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Gross profit for ADESA was 37.2% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with 37.4% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased for the year ended December 31, 2020 as compared with the year ended December 31, 2019, but we have taken measures to reduce expenses to help protect our business while our operations have been impacted by COVID-19, and vehicles sold online require less labor. In addition, our gross profit as a percentage of revenue is impacted by purchased vehicles. Excluding purchased vehicle sales, gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 44.0% and 42.6% for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The entire selling and purchase price of the vehicle is recorded as revenue and cost of services for

purchased vehicles sold. Businesses acquired in 2019 and 2020 accounted for an increase in cost of services of $20.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the ADESA segment decreased $112.3 million, or 18%, to $508.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with $621.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to decreases in compensation expense of $45.7 million, marketing costs of $16.4 million, travel expenses of $13.0 million, severance of $8.2 million, professional fees of $6.4 million, supplies expense of $5.9 million, stock-based compensation of $5.0 million, other employee related expenses of $4.9 million, telecom expenses of $4.8 million, other miscellaneous expenses aggregating $4.8 million and the recording of the Employee Retention Credit provided under the CARES Act and the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy of $9.8 million, partially offset by increases in information technology costs of $5.7 million and costs associated with acquisitions of $6.9 million.
Goodwill and Other Intangibles Impairment
In light of the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the economy, forecasts for all reporting units were revised. These economic circumstances contributed to lower sales, operating profits and cash flows at ADESA Remarketing Limited (doing business as ADESA U.K.) through the first part of 2020 as compared to 2019, and the outlook for the business was significantly reduced. As a result of the updated forecasts, an impairment analysis of goodwill and intangibles was conducted. The change in circumstances resulted in the impairment of the goodwill balance totaling $25.5 million in our ADESA Remarketing Limited reporting unit and a non-cash goodwill impairment charge was recorded for this amount in the second quarter of 2020.
In addition, in the second quarter of 2020, a non-cash customer relationship impairment charge of approximately $4.3 million was also recorded in the ADESA Remarketing Limited reporting unit, representing the impairment in the value of this reporting unit’s customer relationships.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We believe that the significant indicators of liquidity for our business are cash on hand, cash flow from operations, working capital and amounts available under our Credit Facility. Our principal sources of liquidity consist of cash generated by operations and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Working capital924.6726.8
Amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facility*325.0325.0
Cash flow from operations for the year ended384.4380.8
*    There were related outstanding letters of credit totaling approximately $28.5 million and $27.4 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, which reduced the amount available for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.
We regularly evaluate alternatives for our capital structure and liquidity given our expected cash flows, growth and operating capital requirements as well as capital market conditions. The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and is continuing to have, a significant impact on our business. As a result, we have implemented several measures that we believe will enhance liquidity for the foreseeable future. Some of these measures included reducing our compensation expense (including a reduction of base salaries across many levels of the organization, including the elimination of base salaries for our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and President and 50% reduction of base salaries for our other executive officers during the second quarter of 2020, furloughs and a reduction in force, among others), prohibiting non-essential business travel, suspending non-essential services provided by certain third parties at our locations, delaying or canceling capital projects at our on-premise marketplace locations and temporarily suspending the Company's quarterly dividend.
In addition, in June 2020 we issued and sold an aggregate of 550,000 shares Series A Preferred Stock of the Company in private placements for net proceeds of approximately $528.2 million.
We have also taken advantage of legislation introduced to assist companies during this time. In the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020, we recorded a total of approximately $8.3 million of employee retention credits taken under the CARES Act and approximately $16.0 million under the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy. These credits partially offset salaries and medical costs recorded in the U.S. and Canada. We will continue to monitor and assess the impact the CARES Act and similar legislation in other countries may have on our business and financial results. As the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and our operations evolves, we will continue to assess our liquidity needs. A continued disruption could materially affect our liquidity.

Cash flow provided by operating activities (continuing operations) was $384.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with $380.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The increase in operating cash flow was primarily attributable to changes in operating assets and liabilities as a result of the timing of collections and the disbursement of funds to consignors for auctions held near period-ends, as well as a net increase in non-cash item adjustments, partially offset by decreased profitability attributable to reduced operations beginning March 20, 2020, resulting from COVID-19 restrictions on our business.
Net cash used by investing activities (continuing operations) was $326.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with $415.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The increase in net cash from investing activities was primarily attributable to:
•a net decrease in finance receivables held for investment of approximately $303.3 million;
•a reduction in capital expenditures of approximately $60.2 million; and
•net proceeds from the sale of PWI of approximately $24.3 million;
partially offset by:

21 Non-GAAP Financial Measures EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), plus interest expense net of interest income, income tax provision (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for the items of income and expense and expected incremental revenue and cost savings as described in the company's senior secured credit agreement covenant calculations. Management believes that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about one of the principal measures of performance used by the company’s creditors. In addition, management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the company’s performance. Depreciation expense for property and equipment and amortization expense of capitalized internally developed software costs relate to ongoing capital expenditures; however, amortization expense associated with acquired intangible assets, such as customer relationships, software, tradenames and non-compete agreements are not representative of ongoing capital expenditures but have a continuing effect on our reported results. Non-GAAP financial measures of operating adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations and operating adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations per share, in the opinion of the company, provide comparability to other companies that may not have incurred these types of non-cash expenses or that report a similar measure. In addition, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share have been adjusted for certain other charges, as seen in the following reconciliation. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, operating adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations and operating adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations per share have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of the results as reported under GAAP. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
