Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts Receivable is reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. The Companys estimate for the allowance for
doubtful accounts related to trade receivables includes evaluation of specific accounts where we have information that the customer may have an inability to meet its financial obligations.

Inventory Valuation Inventory consists of stock materials and equipment stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or
market. All equipment classified as inventory is available for sale. The company records excess and obsolete inventory reserves. The estimated reserve is based upon specific identification of excess or obsolete inventories. Selling, general and
administrative expenses are expensed as incurred and are not capitalized as a component of inventory.

Accrued Warranties

The Company establishes a reserve for future warranty expense at the point when revenue is recognized by the Company. The provision for estimated warranty
claims, which is included in cost of sales, is based on a percentage of sales.

Litigation Claims

In determining whether liabilities should be recorded for pending litigation claims, the Company must assess the allegations and the likelihood that it
will successfully defend itself. When the Company believes it is probable that it will not prevail in a particular matter, it will then make an estimate of the amount of liability based, in part, on the advice of outside legal counsel.

Comprehensive Income

Reporting
Comprehensive Income requires reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income includes, in addition to net earnings, other items that are reported as direct adjustments to stockholders equity.
Currently, the comprehensive income adjustment required for the Company has two components. First is a foreign currency translation adjustment, the result of consolidating its foreign subsidiary. The second component is a derivative instrument fair
market value adjustment (net of income taxes) related to forward currency contracts designated as a cash flow hedge. See Note 4 for additional details. Comprehensive income is as follows:

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820-10 classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:



|          |  |                                                                                                                                                                              
|--------- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Level 1 - |  | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;                                    
|          | 
|Level 2 - |  | Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;
and  
|          | 
|Level 3 - |  | Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market
activity)

##### Table of Contents

The fair value of the forward currency contracts are determined on the last day of each reporting period
using quoted prices in active markets, which are supplied to the Company by the foreign currency trading operation of its bank. Under ASC 820-10, items valued based on quoted prices in active markets are Level 1 items.

The fair value of the promissory notes were calculated to be equal to the present value of the future debt payments discounted at a market rate of return
commensurate with similar debt instruments with comparable levels of risk and marketability. A rate of interest of 11% and 8% were determined to be the appropriate rates for the Badger and Load King promissory notes following an assessment of the
risk inherent in the debt issues and the market rates for debts of a similar nature using corporate credit ratings criteria adjusted for the lack of public markets for these debts.

The Load King purchase agreement has a contingent consideration provision which provides for a onetime payment of $750 if net revenues are equal to or
greater than $30,000 in any of the next three years, i.e., 2010, 2011 or 2012. Given the disparity between the revenue threshold and the Companys projected financial results, it was determined that a Monte Carlo simulation analysis was
appropriate to determine the fair value of contingent consideration. It was determined that the probability weighted average earn out payment is $30. Based thereon, we determined the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $30.

We elected a partial deferral under the provisions of ASC 820-10 related to the measurement of fair value used when evaluating goodwill, other intangible
assets and other long-lived assets for impairment and valuing assets retirement. On January 1, 2009, the company adopted the provisions that were deferred by ASC 820-10.

4. Derivatives Financial Instruments

On
January 1, 2009, we adopted provisions of ASC 815-10 which requires enhanced disclosures regarding an entitys derivative and hedging activities as provided below.

The Companys risk management objective is to use the most efficient and effective methods available to us to minimize, eliminate, reduce or
transfer the risks which are associated with fluctuation of exchange rates between the Canadian and U.S. dollar. When the Companys Canadian subsidiary receives a significant new U.S. dollar order, management will evaluate different options
that may be available to mitigate future currency exchange risks. The decision to hedge future sales is not automatic and is decided case by case. The Company will only use hedge instruments to hedge firm existing sales orders and not estimated
exposure, when management determines that exchange risks exceeds desired risk tolerance levels.

The Company enters into forward currency
exchange contracts in relationship such that the exchange gains and losses on the assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units functional currency would be offset by the changes in the market value of the forward
currency exchange contracts it holds. The forward currency exchange contracts that the Company has to offset existing assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units functional currency have been determined not to be
considered a hedge under ASC 815-10. The Company records at the balance sheet date the forward currency exchange contracts at its market value with any associated gain or loss being recorded in current earnings. Both realized and unrealized gains
and losses related to forward currency contracts are included in current earnings and are reflected in the Statement of Operations in the other income expense section on the line titled foreign currency transaction losses. Items denominated in other
than a reporting units functional currency includes U.S. denominated accounts receivables and accounts payable held by our Canadian subsidiary. Additionally, there is a note payable for CDN $800 issued in connection with the Liftking acquisition.
The US dollar liability for this note is adjusted each month based on the month end exchange rate, currency gains and losses are included in income each month.

The Company entered into forward currency contracts to hedge certain future U.S. dollar sales of its Canadian Subsidiary. The decision, to hedge future
sales is not automatic and is decided case by case. The forward currency contracts to hedge future sales are designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815-10.

As required, forward currency contracts are recognized as an asset or liability at fair value on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet. For
derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or
periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings (date of sale). Gains or losses on cash flow hedges when recognized into income are included in net revenues. Gains and losses on the derivative instruments representing either hedge
ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. The Company expects minimal ineffectiveness as the Company has hedged only firm sales orders and has not hedged estimated
exposures. In the next twelve months, the company estimates $30 of pre-tax unrealized gains related to forward currency contract hedges to be reclassified from other comprehensive income into earnings.

At March 31, 2010, the Company had entered into a series of forward currency exchange contracts. The contracts obligate the Company to purchase
approximately CDN $7,190 in total. The contracts which are in various amounts mature between April 1, 2010 and December 31, 2010. Under the contract, the Company will purchase Canadian dollars at exchange rates between .9245 and .9709. The
Canadian to US dollar exchange rates was .9844 at March 31, 2010. The unrealized currency exchange asset is reported under prepaid expense and other if it is an asset or under accrued expenses if it is a liability on the balance sheet at
March 31, 2010. As of March 31, 2009, the Company had the following forward currency contracts:

forward contracts is a major financial institution with credit ratings of investment grade or better and no collateral is required. Management continues to monitor counterparty risk and believes the risk of incurring losses on derivative contracts
related to credit risk is unlikely.

5. Acquisitions

Badger Equipment Company

On
July 10, 2009, Manitex International, Inc. completed the acquisition of 100% of the capital stock of Badger Equipment Company, a Minnesota corporation, (Badger) pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the Purchase
Agreement) with Avis Industrial Corporation, an Indiana corporation (Avis). Badger produces specialized rough terrain cranes and material handling products, including a newly introduced 30-ton model, the first in new line of
specialized high quality rough terrain cranes. Badger primarily serves the needs of the construction, municipality, and railroad industries. The Company acquired Badger primarily to obtain the recently developed new 30 ton Rough Terrain crane
together with Badgers long standing crane legacy and niche customer relationships. These provide significant additional markets for the Company and are also strategically aligned with its existing lifting equipment segment.

During the assessment of the Badger acquisition it became apparent that the transaction may result in a bargain purchase. Our initial view was that a
favorable price had been negotiated due to there being no open market sale process due to the long standing relationship with Avis since 2000. In addition, Avis did not use any outside advisors for the transaction and needed to focus on its core
(mainly automotive) businesses that were under significant pressure in the current economy. Our assessment and valuation of the acquisition utilized professional independent valuation advisors and tax advisors. A physical count of the inventory and
fixed assets was conducted. As required by accounting standard, FASB ASC 805-30-30, a reassessment was conducted to ensure that assets and liabilities were completely identified and fairly valued which included a decision to have an independent
appraisal of the real estate and a further review of the fair value of consideration given including the stock in Manitex International Inc and the interest bearing promissory note.

Manitex International Inc. stock - The fair value of the stock consideration was established using the guideline
public company method to establish an enterprise value for the Company at the transaction date, which resulted in a per share value of $3.25 or an aggregate value of $976 for the three hundred thousand shares. While the NASDAQ closing price was
considered in our valuation of fair value, the market price of our stock is only one indicator. It has been our opinion that it is simply not a reliable indicator of the value for the Company, either now or in the past. Our conclusion is based on
the fact that trading volume on our stock is very limited, the Company does not provide guidance nor is there is any significant analyst coverage. Furthermore, very modest sized trades can impact the stock price significantly because our trading
volume is so low.

Interest-bearing Promissory Note - Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company promises to pay Avis the
principal sum of $2,750 at an interest rate of 6.0% per annum from the date of the Transaction through July 10, 2014. The Promissory Note requires the Company to make interest only payments commencing on October 1, 2009 and continuing
on the first day of each subsequent quarter thereafter. Furthermore principal payments will be paid annually, in the amount of $550 commencing on July 10, 2010 and continuing on each subsequent July 10th for the following four years. The
Agreement also states that the Promissory Note is secured by all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Badger. The fair value of the promissory note was calculated to be equal to the present value of the future debt payments discounted at a
market rate of return commensurate with similar debt instruments with comparable levels of risk and marketability. A rate of interest of 11% was determined to be the appropriate rate following an assessment of the risk inherent in the debt issue and
the market rate for debt of this nature using corporate credit ratings criteria adjusted for the lack of public markets for this Note. The calculated fair value was $2,440.

Capital Lease obligation - The Company entered into a five year lease for the Badger premises which
expires in April 2018 that provides for annual rent of $0.3 million payable in twelve equal monthly installments. The lease has been classified as a capital lease under the provisions of ASC 840-10. The Company has an option to purchase the facility
for $500 at the end of the lease by giving notice to Landlord of its intent to purchase the Facility. The fair value of this obligation was calculated by discounting the payments required under the lease by a discount factor of 6.125%, a rate that
is considered to be the market rate for similar mortgage type transactions. The calculated fair value was $1,656.

Under the acquisition
method of accounting, the total acquisition consideration is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the date of the acquisition as shown below.

Cash and other tangible assets and liabilities:The tangible assets and liabilities were valued at their respective carrying values by Badger,
except for certain adjustments necessary to state such amounts at their estimated fair values at the acquisition date.

Intangible
assets: There are three fundamental methods applied to value intangible assets outlined in FASB ASC 820. These methods include the Cost Approach, the Market Approach, and the Income Approach. Each of these valuation approaches was considered in
our estimation of value.

Trade names and trademarks and Unpatented Technology:Valued using the Relief from Royalty method, a form of
both the Market Approach and the Income Approach. Because the Company has established trade names and trademarks and has developed unpatented technology, we estimated the benefit of ownership as the relief from the royalty expense that would need to
be incurred in absence of ownership.

In-process research and technology and dealer relationships: Because there is a specific earnings
stream that can be associated exclusively with the in-process research and development and with the dealer relationships, we determined the discounted cash flow method was the most appropriate methodology for valuation.

Gain on bargain purchase:In accordance with ASC 805, any excess of fair value of acquired net assets over the acquisition consideration results
in a bargain purchase. Prior to recording a gain, the acquiring entity must reassess whether all acquired assets and assumed liabilities have been identified and recognized and perform re-measurements to verify that the consideration paid, assets
acquired and liabilities assumed have been properly valued. The Company, together with its advisors, underwent such a reassessment, and as a result, has recorded a gain on bargain purchase of $900. In accordance with acquisition method of
accounting, any resulting gain on bargain purchase was recognized in earnings on the acquisition date. The Company believes that the gain on bargain purchase resulted from the negotiation of a favorable price for Badger due to there being no open
market sale process due to the long standing relationship with Avis since 2000, Avis not using any outside advisors for the transaction and the fact that Avis needed to focus on its core (mainly automotive) businesses that were under significant
pressure in the current economy.

Acquisition transaction costs:The majority of acquisition transaction costs were the responsibility
of the seller, Avis Industrial Corp, who paid for legal costs. Due diligence and other legal activities were performed by internal Company employees. Costs for valuation and tax services amounted to $17 and are recorded in selling, general and
administration expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2009.

The results of the acquired Badger operations have been included in our
consolidated statement of operations since July 10, 2009, the acquisition date. The results of Badger also form part of the segment disclosures for the Lifting Equipment segment.

Terex Load King Acquisition

On
December 31, 2009, Manitex International, Inc. completed the purchase of the assets and certain liabilities of Terex Load King Trailers, (Load King) an Elk Point, South Dakota-based manufacturer of specialized custom trailers and
hauling systems typically used for transporting heavy equipment, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement with Genie Industries, Inc., a subsidiary of Terex Corporation. Load King primarily serves the commercial construction, railroad, oilfield
service, military and equipment rental industries. The Company acquired Load King primarily because of its long standing legacy niche products and customer relationships. These attributes provide significant additional markets for the Company
combined with its synergy with existing material handling products within the Companys lifting equipment segment.

During the assessment
of the processing of the Load King acquisition it became apparent that the transaction may result in a bargain purchase. This supported an initial view that a favorable price had been negotiated due to the transaction being completed with a
motivated seller as Terex Corporation (Terex.) desired to restructure its operations and focus on core competencies. Additionally, although Terex employed an investment banker to solicit potential buyers, Manitex was the only bidder
identified willing to consummate a transaction with terms attractive to Terex (i.e. the only bidder who was willing to purchase substantially all the assets of Load King).

##### Table of Contents

The assessment and valuation of the acquisition utilized professional independent valuation advisors and tax
advisors. Physical assets had been reviewed and visited. As required by accounting standard, FASB ASC 805-30-30, a reassessment was conducted to ensure that assets and liabilities were completely identified and fairly valued which included a further
review of the fair value of consideration.

The fair value of the purchase consideration was $2,960 as follows:

Manitex International Inc. stock. The fair value of the stock consideration was determined to be $250, as the Asset
Purchase Agreement contained a methodology to determine the number of shares equal to $250.

Interest-bearing Promissory Note. Per the
terms of the Agreement, Manitex promised to pay Genie Industries, Inc. the principal sum of $2,750 at an interest rate of 6.0% per annum from the date of the Transaction through December 31, 2016. The Promissory Note requires Manitex to
make interest payments commencing on December 31, 2009 and continuing on the last day of each subsequent quarter through and including December 31, 2016. Furthermore, principal payments equal to one-sixth of the principal sum (i.e.,
approximately $458) will be paid annually, commencing on December 31, 2011 and continuing on each subsequent December 31 for the following five years. The Promissory Note is secured by certain real property and machinery and equipment of
Load King, located in South Dakota.

The note was recorded at its fair value on date of issuance at $2,580. The fair value of the promissory
note was calculated to be equal to the present value of the future debt payments discounted at a market rate of return commensurate with similar debt instruments with comparable levels of risk and marketability. A rate of interest of 8% was
determined to be the appropriate rate following an assessment of the risk inherent in the debt issue and the market rate for debt of this nature using corporate credit ratings criteria adjusted for the lack of public markets for this Note. The
difference between face amount of the note and its fair value is being amortized over the life of the note, and is being charged to interest expense

Contingent Consideration.In accordance with ASC 805, the acquirer is to recognize the acquisition date fair value of contingent consideration.
The agreement has a contingent consideration provision which provides for a onetime payment of $750 if net revenues are equal to or greater than $30,000 in any of the next three years, i.e., 2010, 2011 or 2012. Given the disparity between the
revenue threshold and the Companys projected financial results, it was determined that a Monte Carlo simulation analysis was appropriate to determine the fair value of contingent consideration. It was determined that the probability weighted
average earn out payment is $30. Based thereon, we determined the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $30.

Tangible assets and liabilities:The tangible assets and liabilities were valued at their respective
carrying values by Load King, except for certain adjustments necessary to state such amounts at their estimated fair values at theacquisition date. A significant fair market adjustment to land and building, was based on an independent
appraisal, was made. Fair market adjustments, which were not significant, were also made to adjust machinery and equipment and inventory.

Intangible assets: There are three fundamental methods applied to value intangible assets outlined in FASB ASC 820. These methods include the Cost
Approach, the Market Approach, and the Income Approach. Each of these valuation approaches was considered in our estimation of value.

Trade names and trademarks and Unpatented Technology:Valued using the Relief from Royalty method, a form of both the Market Approach and the
Income Approach. Because the Company has established trade names and trademarks and has developed unpatented technology, we estimated the benefit of ownership as the relief from the royalty expense that would need to be incurred in absence of
ownership.

Gain on bargain purchase:In accordance with ASC 805, any excess of fair value of acquired net assets over the acquisition
consideration results in a bargain purchase. Prior to recording a gain, the acquiring entity must reassess whether all acquired assets and assumed liabilities have been identified and recognized and perform re-measurements to verify that the
consideration paid, assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been properly valued. The Company, together with its advisors, underwent such a reassessment, and as a result, has recorded a gain on bargain purchase of $2,915. In accordance with
acquisition method of accounting, any resulting gain on bargain purchase must be recognized in earnings on the acquisition date. The gain on bargain purchase is disclosed on a separate line in the Company consolidated statement of operations for
year ended December 31 2009. The Company believes that the gain on bargain purchase resulted from the negotiation of a favorable price for Load King due to the transaction being completed with a motivated seller who desired to restructure its
operations and focus on core competencies. Additionally, although the Seller employed an investment banker to solicit potential buyers, Manitex was the only bidder identified willing to consummate a transaction with terms attractive to
Terex (i.e. the only bidder who was willing to purchase substantially all the assets of Load King).

Acquisition transaction costs:The
Company incurred $54 in legal fees in connection with the Load King acquisition. Due diligence and other activities were performed by internal Company employees. Internal cost and legal fees are recorded in recorded in selling, general and
administration expense in 2009. Costs for prior years audits, valuation and tax services preformed after December 31, 2009 are approximately $86 and have been recorded in the first quarter of 2010.

The results of the acquired Load King operations have been included in our consolidated statement of operations since December 31, 2009, the
acquisition date. The results of Load King also form part of the segment disclosures for the Lifting Equipment segment.

Pro Forma Adjustment Note

A Pro Forma adjustment was made to give effect to the amortization of the intangibles recorded as a result of the acquisition, which would
have resulted in $54 of additional amortization expense. Pro Forma adjustments to interest expense was made to reflect interest on the promissory notes issued in connection with the acquisitions, the capital lease executed in the Badger acquisition
and to eliminate interest expense for Badger debt not assumed in the transaction. The net effect was to increase interest expense by $137. Pro Forma adjustments were made to account for the changes in depreciation expense based on the value of fixed
as determined in the purchase price allocation. The effect was to decrease depreciation expense by $7. A pro forma adjustment was made to move the gain on bargain purchases of $3,715 and a tax benefit of $1,893 to the first quarter from the third
quarter and fourth quarters.

6. Net Earnings per Common Share

Basic
net earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of warrants, restricted stock units and non-controlling
minority interest. Details of the calculations are as follows:

2004 Equity Incentive Plan

In 2004, the Company adopted the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and subsequently amended and restated the plan on September 13, 2007 and May 28,
2009. The maximum number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the plan is 500,000 shares. The total number of shares reserved for issuance may, however, may be adjusted to reflect certain corporate transactions or changes in our
capital structure. Our employees and members of our board of directors who are not our employees or employees of our affiliates are eligible to participate in the plan. The plan is administered by a committee of our board comprised of members who
are outside directors. The plan provides that the committee has the authority to, among other things, select plan participants, determine the type and amount of awards, determine award terms, fix all other conditions of any awards, interpret the
plan and any plan awards. Under the plan, the committee can grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units, except Directors may not be granted stock appreciation
rights, performance shares and performance units. During any calendar year, participants are limited in the number of grants they may receive under the plan. In any year, an individual may not receive options for more than 15,000 shares, stock
appreciation rights with respect to more than 20,000 shares, more than 20,000 shares of restricted stock and/or an award for more than 10,000 performance shares or restricted stock units or performance units. The plan requires that the exercise
price for stock options and stock appreciation rights be not less than fair market value of our common stock on date of grant.

8. New Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, which amended ASC 605,
Revenue Recognition. This guidance addresses how to determine whether an arrangement involving multiple deliverables contains more than one unit of accounting, and how to allocate the consideration to each unit of accounting. In an
arrangement with multiple deliverables, the delivered item(s) shall be considered a separate unit of accounting if the delivered items have value to the customer on a stand-alone basis. Items have value on a stand-alone basis if they are
sold separately by any vendor or the customer could resell the delivered items on a stand-alone basis and if the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered items, delivery or performance of the undelivered items is
considered probable and substantially in the control of the vendor.

Arrangement consideration shall be allocated at the inception of the
arrangement to all deliverables based on their relative selling price, except under certain circumstances such as items recorded at fair value and items not contingent upon the delivery of additional items or meeting other specified performance
conditions. The selling price for each deliverable shall be determined using vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of selling price, if it exists, otherwise third-party evidence of selling price. If neither VSOE nor third-party
evidence exists for a deliverable, the vendor shall use its best estimate of the selling price for that deliverable. This guidance eliminates the use of the residual value method for determining allocation of arrangement consideration and
allows the use of an entitys best estimate to determine the selling price if VSOE and third-party evidence cannot be determined. It also requires additional disclosures such as the nature of the arrangement, certain provisions within the
arrangement, significant factors used to determine selling prices and the timing of revenue recognition related to the arrangement. This guidance shall be effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption
permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on the determination and reporting of our financial results.

In June 2009, the FASB revised the authoritative guidance for determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE. In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting
Standards Update No. 2009-17, Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities (ASU 2009-17), which provides amendments to ASC 810 to reflect the revised guidance. The
amendments in ASU 2009-17 replace the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which reporting entity, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a VIE with an approach focused on identifying which reporting entity has
the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entitys economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. The amendments in
ASU 2009-17 also require additional disclosures about a reporting entitys involvement with VIEs. ASU 2009-17 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period
and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2010, did not have a significant impact on the determination or reporting of our financial results.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of
Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that
will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. Effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption did not have an
impact on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02,
Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic
810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the
period that it first adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted FAS 160, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after
December 15, 2009. The provisions were adopted on January 1, 2009. The adoption did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This ASU requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Codification
Subtopic 820-10. The FASBs objective is to improve these disclosures and, thus, increase the transparency in financial reporting. Specifically, ASU2010-06 amends Codification Subtopic 820-10 to now require:



| |  |  | A reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and
describe the reasons for the transfers; and,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity should present separately information about
purchases, sales, issuances and settlements.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, ASU2010-06 clarifies the requirements of the following existing
disclosures:



| |  |  | For purposes of reporting fair value measurement for each class of assets and liabilities, a reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the
appropriate classes of assets and liabilities; and,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring
fair value measurements.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ASU2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15,
2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and
for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The provisions were adopted on January 1, 2009. The adoption did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-08 ,Technical Corrections to Various Topics, which provides certain
clarifications made to the guidance on embedded derivatives and hedging. The Update was issued to provide special transition provisions upon application of the change in application of the topic. The Company does not believe that this
update will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-09,
Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. ASU 2010-09 removes the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised
financial statements. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised as a result of either correction of an error or retrospective application of U.S. GAAP. The FASB also clarified that if the financial statements have been
revised, then an entity that is not an SEC filer should disclose both the date that the financial statements were issued or available to be issued and the date the revised financial statements were issued or available to be issued. The FASB believes
these amendments remove potential conflicts with the SECs literature. In addition, the amendments in the ASU requires an entity that is a conduit bond obligor for conduit debt securities that are traded in a public market to evaluate
subsequent events through the date of issuance of its financial statements and must disclose such date. All of the amendments in the ASU were effective upon issuance (February 24, 2010) except for the use of the issued date for conduit debt
obligors. That amendment is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The guidance, expect for that related to conduit debt obligations, has been adopted and did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial
Statements.

In March 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-11, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Scope Exception Related
to Embedded Credit Derivatives. The amendments in this Update are effective for each reporting entity at the beginning of its first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted at the beginning of each
entitys first fiscal quarter beginning after issuance of this Update. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-11 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Issued in April 2010, Accounting Standard Update, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Accounting for Certain Tax Effects of the Health Care Reform
Acts, provides guidance that even though the signing dates of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 and the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act were different, the two should be considered together for accounting purposes.
This has no effect on our financials as both dates fell within the same reporting period.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-13, Compensation-Stock Compensation (topic
718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Tradesa consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force. The amendments in this Update
are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Earlier application is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-13 to have a material
effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

12. Accrued Warranties

The liability is established using historical warranty claim experience. Historical warranty experience is, however, reviewed by management. The current
provision may be adjusted to take into account unusual or non-recurring events in the past or anticipated changes in future warranty claims. Adjustments to the initial warranty accrual are recorded if actual claim experience indicates that
adjustments are necessary. Warranty reserves are reviewed to ensure critical assumptions are updated for known events that may impact the potential warranty liability.

13. Line of Credit and Debt

Revolving Credit Facility

At
March 31, 2010, the Company had drawn $13,860 under a revolving credit facility. The Company is eligible to borrow up to $20,500, with interest at prime rate (prime was 3.25% at March 31, 2010) plus 2%. The maximum amount of outstanding is
limited to the sum of 85% of eligible receivables, the lesser of 58% of eligible inventory or $9,500. At March 31, 2010, the maximum the Company could borrow based on available collateral was capped at $16,256. The credit facilitys
original maturity date was January 2, 2005. The maturity date was subsequently extended and the note is now due on April 1, 2012. The indebtedness is collateralized by substantially all of the Companys assets. The facility contains
customary limitations including, but not limited to, limitations on acquisitions, dividends, repurchase of the Companys stock and capital expenditures. The agreement also requires the Company to have a minimum Tangible Effective Net Worth, as
defined in the agreement and 1.25 to 1 Debt Service Ratio, as defined in the agreement.

Under the agreement , the inventory eligibility
percent further decreases to 55%, 53%, and 50% on June 30, 2010, December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2011.

Revolving
Canadian Credit Facility

At March 31, 2010, the Company had drawn $4,487 (US) under a revolving credit agreement with a bank. The
Company is eligible to borrow up to $5,500 (CDN). The maximum amount outstanding is limited to the sum of (1) 80% of eligible receivables plus (2) the lesser of 35% of eligible work-in-process inventory or CDN $500 plus (3) the lesser
of 30% of eligible inventory less work-in-process inventory or CDN $3,500. At March 31, 2010, the maximum the Company could borrow based on available collateral was CDN $5,500 or US $5,414. The indebtedness is collateralized by substantially

in the normal course of operations. The Company has product liability insurance with self insurance retention that range from $50 to $1,000. Certain cases are at a preliminary stage, and it is not possible to estimate the amount or timing of any
cost to the Company. When it is probable that a loss has been incurred and possible to make a reasonable estimates of the Companys liability with respect to such matters, a provision is recorded for the amount of such estimate or the minimum
amount of a range of estimates when it is not possible to estimate the amount within the range that is most likely to occur.

During the
quarter, our insurance carriers have denied coverage for two product liability claims. The Company believes the insurance companies basis for denial of coverage is improper. As such, the Company has engaged outside legal representation to
challenge the insurance companies denial of coverage. Currently, the Company is engaged in a declaratory judgment action which contests the denial of coverage.

The Company does not believe that these contingencies, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company.

It is reasonably possible that the Estimated Reserve for Product Liability Claims may change within the next twelve months. A change in
estimate could occur if a case is settled for more or less than anticipated, or if additional information becomes known to the Company.

provision with the effective rate that the Company expects to achieve for the full year. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and records cumulative adjustments as necessary. The annual effective tax rates
are estimated to be approximately 33.9% and 14.4% for 2010 and 2009, respectively. The effective tax rate is based upon the Companys anticipated earnings both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions.

The Companys total unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $170 and $200, which, if recognized, would
affect the Companys effective tax rate. As of March 31, 2010 the Company had accrued immaterial amounts for the potential payment of interest and penalties.

18. Restructuring

Beginning in
September of 2008, the United States and world financial markets came under unprecedented stress. The immediate impact was a dramatic decrease in liquidity and credit availability throughout the world. An incredibly rapid and significant
deterioration in economic conditions, especially in the United States and Europe followed. These events had an immediate significant adverse impact on the Company, including a very dramatic curtailment of new orders, request to delay deliveries and,
in some cases to cancel existing orders.

In response to the impact of economic conditions and longer sales cycles, it was determined that
swift management action was necessary to ensure that operating activity was balanced with current demand levels. During the fourth quarter of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, we implemented significant across the board cost reduction activities.
From the ended of the first quarter 2009 until present time, we have continued to evaluate and monitor our business and have implemented additional costs reductions when appropriate.

The specific actions taken to achieve these cost reductions comprise headcount reductions of salaried and hourly employees, virtual elimination of
overtime, suspension of additional hires and merit increases, reduction in executive and salaried pay, bonus and benefits and the introduction of shortened workweeks. These actions, although difficult, are required to enable the Company to adjust to
current conditions and position it to respond quickly when the market recovers.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009,
the Company had restructuring expenses (severance payments related to staff reductions) of $53 and $131, respectively.

19. Gain on
Casualty Loss

On January 11, 2010, there was a small fire in a secondary building at our Georgetown, Texas facility. The Company
filed a claim for the loss with its insurance carrier. Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 includes approximately $106 gain on a casualty loss related to the fire.

20. Subsequent Events

On May 5,
2010, the Company and its bank entered into agreements to modify its U.S. and Canadian Revolving Credit Facilities. Under the agreements the interest rates on the Companys Revolving Credit facilities were lower by 0.5%. The interest rate for
the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility and U.S. dollar borrowing under the Canadian Revolving Credit facility was decreased from prime rate plus 2.0% to prime rate plus 1.5%. The interest rate for Canadian dollar borrowing under the Canadian Revolving
Credit facility was decreased from Canadian prime rate plus 2.5% to Canadian prime rate plus 2.0%.

Additionally, a new $500 Revolving Credit
facility for the Companys Crane and Machinery Division was established. Under this new facility, the Company can draw funds solely to purchase new or used construction machinery and equipment. The maximum that can be borrowed is 80% of the
invoice cost of the machinery or equipment being purchased. The credit facility has a maturity date of April 1, 2012 and an interest rate of prime rate plus 1.5%.

that include utility, ship building and steel mill industries. Schaeff Lift Truck Division. (Schaeff) produces a line of electric forklifts, further complements the Lifting Equipment segment.

On December 31, 2009, our subsidiary, Manitex Load King, Inc. acquired the operating assets of Load King Trailers, an Elk Point, South Dakota-based
manufacturer of specialized custom trailers and hauling systems, typically used for transporting heavy equipment. Load King trailers serve niche markets in the commercial construction, railroad, military, and equipment rental industries through a
dealer network. Load King complements our existing material handling business.

Equipment Distribution Segment

The Companys Crane & Machinery Division (Crane) located in Bridgeview, Illinois, is a crane dealer that distributes Terex rough
terrain and truck cranes, Fuchs material handlers, and Manitex boom trucks and sky cranes. We treat these operations as a separate reporting segment entitled Equipment Distribution. Our Equipment Distribution segment also supplies repair

bridge construction, general contracting, roofing, scrap handling and sign construction and maintenance.

Summary of Recent Acquisitions

On July 10, 2009, the Company completed the acquisition of the outstanding capital stock of Badger pursuant to a Stock Purchase
Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with Avis Industrial Corporation, an Indiana corporation ( the Seller). The aggregate purchase price for the capital stock of Badger, as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, consisted of:
(1) a promissory note of the Company in favor of Seller in the principal amount of $2.75 million, (2) 300,000 shares of the Companys common stock and (3) $0.04 million in cash. See note 5 to the Companys consolidated

Customer and Suppliers Concentrations

At March 31, 2010, two customers accounted for 24 and 15% of the Companys accounts receivable, respectively. As of December 31, 2009 two
customers accounted for 22% and 20%, respectively, of Company accounts receivables.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, one
customer accounted for 30 % of the Company net revenues. For the three months ended March 31, 2009 one customer accounted 11% of the Companys net revenue.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, no supplier accounted for 10% or more of total Company purchases

Current Economic Conditions

Beginning
in September of 2008, the United States and world financial markets came under unprecedented stress. The immediate impact was a dramatic decrease in liquidity and credit availability throughout the world. An incredibly rapid and significant
deterioration in economic conditions, especially in the United States and Europe followed. These events had an immediate significant adverse impact on the Company, including a very dramatic curtailment of new orders, request to delay deliveries and,
in some cases to cancel existing orders.

In response to the impact of economic conditions and longer sales cycles, it was determined that
swift management action was necessary to ensure that operating activity was balanced with current demand levels. During the fourth quarter of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, we implemented significant across the board cost reduction activities.
From the end of the first quarter of 2009 until present, we have continued to evaluate and monitor our business and have implemented additional costs reductions when appropriate.

The specific actions taken to achieve these cost reductions comprise headcount reductions of salaried and hourly employees, virtual elimination of
overtime, suspension of additional hires and merit increases, reduction in executive and salaried pay, bonus and benefits and the introduction of shortened workweeks. These actions, although difficult, were required to enable the Company to adjust
to current conditions and position it to respond quickly when the market recovers.

Currently, the commercial markets that we serve continue
to be severely depressed. The actions of the United States and other world governments to stimulate the world economy have been unprecedented. The United States stimulus package includes very significant appropriations for improving the
countrys infrastructure, which could be a significant benefit to the Company. The ultimate success of governmental actions and the resulting benefits that the Company may see, however, remain unknown. We have seen certain sectors of the
economy appearing to show signs of improving, particularly the energy, and power distribution sectors both domestically and internationally. However, our markets still remain significantly depressed and we cannot predict either the extent or timing
of any resurgence.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2009

Net income for the three month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company had a net income of $0.3 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the
Company had a net income $0.1 million.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the net income of $0.3 million consisted of revenue of
$22.0 million, cost of sales of $16.8 million, research and development costs of $0.3 million, SG&A costs excluding corporate expenses of $3.1 million, corporate SG&A expenses of $0.7 million, interest expense of $0.6 million, other
income of $0.1 million, foreign currency transaction losses of $0.1 million, and income tax expense of $0.2 million.

For the three months
ended March 31, 2009, net income of $0.1 million consisted of revenue of $14.0 million, cost of sales of $11.0 million, research and development costs of $0.1 million, SG&A costs excluding corporate expenses of $1.8 million, corporate
SG&A expenses of $0.5 million, net interest expense of $0.4 million, and restructuring expenses of $0.1 million.

##### Table of Contents

Net revenues increased $7.9 million to $22.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from
$14.0 million for the comparable period in 2009. Without the Badger and Load King acquisitions, revenues would have increased $3.8 million, as Badger, and Load King had combined revenues of $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31,
2010. The remaining increase in revenues is entirely related to an increase in military sales (which includes an international agency) of $6.6 million, as commercial sales for existing business was down. Military revenues for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 includes revenues of $3.4 million for orders shipped predominately in October and November 2009, which could not be included in revenue until 2010. These particular items were shipped F.O.B destination and had not been received
by the customer as of December 31, 2009 and as such could not be included in 2009 revenues. The customer, an international agency, purchased the items and required shipment to remote locations, which accounted for the extremely long delivery
times. The decrease in commercial revenues is attributed to the current world wide economic downturn that began in September 2008.

Our gross
profit as a percentage of net revenues increased 2.1% to 23.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from 21.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The increase in the gross margin percent is attributed to a favorable product
mix, which included increased military sales and higher tonnage cranes, and the impact of restructuring activities implemented over the last year.

Selling, general and administrative expense  Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was
$3.8 million compared to $2.3 million for the comparable period in 2009. Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 is comprised of corporate expense of $0.7 million and $3.1 million related to
operating companies. Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was comprised of corporate expense of $0.5 million and $1.8 million related to operating companies.

Selling, general and administrative expense, excluding corporate expenses, increased $1.3 million to $3.1 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 from $1.8 million for the comparable three month period in 2009. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 includes approximately $0.6 million related to the Badger and Load King
acquisitions. Without the acquisitions, selling, general and administrative expense would have been $0.7 million above the prior year. This increase is attributed to increased selling expenses of $0.4 million, related to the increase in revenue, an
increase in legal expenses of approximately $0.2 million, and the effect of a strengthening Canadian dollar. The quarterly average exchange rate increased approximately 1573 basis points from .8034 for the first quarter of 2009 to .9607 for the
first quarter of 2010. Approximately $0.15 million of the increase was the effect that a stronger Canadian dollar had on the conversion of Canadian dollar denominated expenses of our Canadians subsidiary into U.S .dollars.

Corporate expenses increased $0.2 million to $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from $0.5 million for the comparable 2009 three
month period. Approximately half of this increase is associated with costs related to the Load King acquisitions and an increase in audit fees directly attributed to acquiring Badger and Load King. The remaining increase is attributed to a number of
other expense items that both increased and decreased, netting to a $0.1 million increase.

Operating income  For the three
months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had operating income of $1.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The increase in operating income is due to an increase in gross profit of $2.2 million offset by $1.6 million increase in
operating expenses. An increase in revenues accounts for approximately $1.7 million of the increase in gross profit, the remaining $0.5 million is the result of an increase in the gross profit percent, which increased 2.1% to 23.7% from 21.6%
between the first quarter 2009 and first quarter 2010. The increase in operating expenses is principally related to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, which is explained above.

Interest expense  Interest expense was $0.6 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
The increase in interest expense is the result of an increase in interest rates applicable to the Companys borrowing between years and an increase in outstanding debt.

On July 9, 2010 the Company and its bank amended the Companys Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolving Canadian Credit Facility and its Term
loan. Under the agreements the maturity dates were extended from April 1, 2010 to April 1, 2012. In connection with the extension, the Company agreed to increased interest rates. The interest on U.S. borrowing increased from prime rate
plus .25% to prime plus 2.0%, interest rates on Canadian borrowings increased from Canadian prime rate plus 1.50% to Canadian prime rate plus 3.0% and interest on its term loan increased from the prime rate plus 1% to the prime rate plus 2.5%.

Total debt increased $9.5 million from $25.1 million at March 31, 2009 to $34.6 million at March 31, 2010. Approximately, $6.6
million of the increase is acquisition debt related to the Badger and Load King acquisitions. The remaining difference is accounted for by increased borrowing under our Canadian Revolving credit facility, which was required to support increased
levels of business activity.

Foreign currency transaction gains The Company attempts to purchase forward currency exchange
contracts such that the exchange gains and losses on the assets and liabilities denominated in other than the reporting units functional currency will be offset by the changes in the market value of the forward currency exchange contracts it
holds.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company had a foreign currency transaction loss of $0.1 million. Foreign currency
gains and losses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 were insignificant.

Income tax For the three months ended
March 31, 2010, the Company had income tax expense of $0.2 million. Income tax expense was calculated based on estimated effective tax rate of 33.9% for 2010. Income tax expense for three months ended March 31, 2009, was insignificant and
was based on an estimated effective or 14.4% for 2009. The 2009 effective rate differs from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the utilization of prior year losses for which no benefit was previously recognized.

Net income  Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $0.3 million. This compares with a net income for the three months
ended March 31, 2009 of $0.1 million. The change in net income is explained above.

Net Revenues

Net revenues increased
$8.0 million to $21.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from $13.2 million for the comparable period in 2009. Without the Badger and Load King acquisitions, revenues would have increased $3.9 million, as Badger and Load King had
combined revenues of $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The remaining in revenues is entirely related to an increase in military sales (which includes an international agency) of $6.6 million, as commercial sales for
existing business was down. Military revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010 includes revenues of $3.4 million for orders shipped predominately in October and November 2009, which could not be included in revenue until 2010. These
particular items were shipped F.O.B. destination and had not been received by the customer as of December 31, 2009 and as such could not be included in 2009 revenues. The customer, an international agency, purchased the items and required
shipment to remote locations, which accounted for the extremely long delivery times. The decrease in commercial revenues is attributed to the current world wide economic downturn that began in September 2008.

Operating Income and Operating Margins

Operating income for the Lifting Equipment segment increased $0.8 million to $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from $1.1 million
in the comparable period in 2009. The increase in operating income is due to an increase in gross profit offset by an increase in operating expenses. Gross profit for the segment was $5.1 million and $2.8 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The increase in gross profit is primarily the result of an increase in revenues. Gross profit was also favorably impacted by an increase in the gross profit percent. The gross profit percent
increased to 23.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from 21.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an improvement of 2.8%. The increase in the gross margin percent is attributed to a favorable product mix, which included
increased military sales and higher tonnage cranes, and the impact of restructuring activities implemented over the last year.

##### Table of Contents

The increase in operating expenses, excluding the effect of acquisitions, is principally related to an
increase in selling general and administrative expenses and a small increase in research and development cost. This increase in selling, general and administrative expense is the result of increased selling expenses of $0.4 million, related to the
increase in revenue, an increase in legal expenses of approximately $0.2 million, and the effect of a strengthening Canadian dollar. The quarterly average exchange rate increased approximately 1573 basis points from .8034 for the first quarter of
2009 to .9607 for the first quarter of 2010. The conversion of Canadian subsidiary selling, general and administrative expenses were increased by approximately $0.15 million as a result the strengthening of the Canadian dollar.

Net revenues  Net revenues
decreased $0.1 million to $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, from $0.9 million for the comparable period in 2009.

Operating loss and Operating Margins  The segment had operating loss of $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The small increase in the operating loss is attributed to a slight decrease in revenues and a decrease in the gross margin percent, as operating expenses were down an insignificant amount this year. The
decrease in gross profit is the result of change in product mix. Part sales as a percent of total segment revenues were lower in 2010 as compared to 2009. This affects the overall margin percent as part sales have a higher margin as compared to unit
sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $0.5 million at March 31, 2010 compared to $0.3 million at December 31, 2009. The Company has both a U.S. and
Canadian revolving credit facility, with a maturity date of April 1, 2012. At March 31, 2010 the Company had approximately $3.3 million available to borrow under its credit facilities.

During the three months ended March 31, total debt increased by $1.1 million to $34.6 million at March 31, 2010 from $33.5 million at
December 31, 2009. The following is a summary of the net increase in our indebtedness:

Future availability under credit facilities

As stated above, the Company had approximately $3.3 million available to borrow under its credit facilities at March 31, 2010.

Both the US and Canadian credit facilities are asset based. The maximum the Company may borrow under either facility is the lower of the credit line or
the available collateral, as defined in the credit agreements. Collateral under the agreements consists of stated percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Beginning in September 2008, the financial markets in the United States and
globally came under incredible stress. A substantial deterioration in economic conditions, especially in the United States and Europe followed. As a result, the Company has seen a significant contraction in its business, which continues. This
contraction in business generally means that accounts receivable and inventory balances are reduced and the maximum that Company can borrow under its revolving credit facilities is also reduced. The Company has implemented significant across the
board cost reductions to ensure that operating activity is balanced with current demand levels and to reduce cash requirements to the extent possible.

The Company needs cash to meet its working capital needs as the business grows, to acquire capital equipment, and to fund acquisitions and debt
repayment. We intend to use cash flows from operations and existing availability under the current revolving credit facilities to fund anticipated levels of operations for approximately the next 12 months. Management has to ensure that operating
activity is balanced with current demand levels and has reduced operating costs dramatically, and as a result management believes that its two credit facilities will provide sufficient working capital. However, the length and severity of the current
business contraction is not known, we cannot say with certainty that cash generated from operations will be adequate or that the credit facilities will have sufficient availability to bridge any short fall. The longer the business contraction lasts
or deeper it becomes the greater the risk.

We will likely need to raise additional capital through debt or equity financings to support our
growth strategy, which may include additional acquisitions. There is no assurance that such financing will be available or, if available, on acceptable terms.

2010

Operating activities consumed $1.2
million of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2010 comprised of net income of $0.3 million, non-cash items that totaled $0.8 million and changes in assets and liabilities, which consumed $2.4 million. The principal non-cash item is
depreciation and amortization of $0.8 million. A decrease in inventory of $1.6 million and increase in accrued expenses of $0.3 million generated cash and were offset by the following items that consumed cash: an increase in accounts receivable or
$3.5 million, increase in prepaid expense of $0.3 million, and a decrease in accounts payable of $0.6 million.

The increase in accounts
receivable is due to an increase in revenues. The decrease in inventory is largely related to recognition into revenue in 2010 of a couple of large orders shipped F.O.B destination predominately in October and November 2009 which were not received
until 2010 and therefore in inventory at year end. An increase in accrued expenses is primarily related to increase in accruals for audit, legal and other professional services. The prepaid balance has increased as payments were made in January 2010
for insurance policies that renewed on December 30, 2009. Accounts payable decreased as our Canadian subsidiary used the receipt of funds received during the first quarter related to afore mentioned large order to reduce its accounts payable
balance.

Investing activities generated $0.2 million in cash for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The
proceeds were generated by the sale of a crane that was being rented and, therefore, had been included fixed assets at the time of sale.

Financing activities generated $1.3 million in cash for the three months ended March 31, 2010. A net increase in our borrowings under our revolving
credit facilities of $1.4 million and additional new borrowing of $0.6 million (primarily related to the financing of insurance premiums) were sources of cash. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, note payments were made of $0.2
million, $0.2 million, $0.1 million, and $0.1 million on the Liftking Industries note, bank term loan, the Terex note, and notes to finance insurance premium, respectively.

2009

Operating activities generated
cash of $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 comprised of net income of $0.1 million, non-cash items that totaled $0.6 million and changes in assets and liabilities, which generated $1.8 million. The principal non-cash items
are depreciation and amortization of $0.6 million. A decrease in accounts receivable of $7.8 million was offset by increases in inventory of $0.3 million, an increase in prepaid expenses of $0.5 million and a decrease in accounts payable, accruals
and other current liabilities of $4.3 million, $0.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively

The decrease in accounts receivable and accounts
payable is due to the decrease in revenues. The increase in prepaid expenses is primarily related to an increase in the prepaid insurance balance. The prepaid balance has increased as payments were made in January 2009 for insurance policies that
renewed on December 30, 2008. The decrease in accrued expense is due to a lower balance in reserves for several items, including vacation, warranty and commissions. The decreases are attributed to lower revenues and reductions in the workforce.
The decrease in other current liabilities is due to a decrease in customer deposits.

Cash flows related to investing activities were
immaterial for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Financing activities consumed $2.7 million in cash for the three months ended
March 31, 2009. A decrease in borrowings under the Companys credit facilities, note payments, and capital lease payments consumed $3.0 million, $0.6 million and $0.1 million of cash, respectively. The reduction in borrowing under the
credit facilities and notes payment was offset by $0.9 million in new borrowings. During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, note payments of $0.2 million, $0.2 million $0.1 million and $0.1 were made on the Liftking Industries note, notes to
finance insurance premiums, the Terex note and the term loan. During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the Company borrowed $0.5 million to finance insurance premiums and $0.4 million under the floorplan financing agreement to finance the
purchase of a crane.

Contingencies

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including product liability and workers compensation matters which have arisen in the normal
course of operations. Certain cases are at a preliminary stage, and it is not possible to estimate the amount or timing of any cost to the Company. However, the Company does not believe that these contingencies, in aggregate, will have a material
adverse effect on the Company.

Related Party Transactions

For a description of the Companys related party transactions, please see Note 16 to the Companys consolidated financial statements entitled
Transactions between the Company and Related Parties.

Critical Accounting Policies

See Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition in the Companys Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, for a discussion of the Companys other critical accounting policies.

Impact
of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2008, the FASB issued guidance revising employers disclosures about
postretirement benefit plan assets which was later codified under ASC 715, CompensationRetirement Benefits. This guidance revised employers disclosures about plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other
postretirement plan. This guidance requires additional disclosure of a benefit plans investment allocation decision-making process, the fair value of each major category of plan assets, the valuation techniques used to measure the fair
value of the plan assets, and any significant concentrations of risk within plan assets. This guidance is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009, with early application permitted. Adoption of this guidance did not
have a significant impact on the determination or reporting of our financial results.

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 166,
Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assetsan amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 (SFAS No. 166), later codified under ASC 860. This standard will require entities to provide more information about transfers
of financial assets and a transferors continuing involvement, if any, with transferred financial assets. It also requires additional disclosures about the risks that a transferor continues to be exposed to because of its continuing involvement
in transferred financial assets. This standard eliminates the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity and changes the requirements for de-recognition of financial assets. This standard is effective for us in our interim and annual
reporting periods beginning on and after January 1, 2010. Earlier application was prohibited. The adoption did not have an impact on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (SFAS No. 167), which
amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities, later codified under ASC 810. It replaces the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary in a variable
interest entity with an approach that is primarily qualitative and requires ongoing assessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. This standard also requires additional disclosures about an
enterprises involvement in variable interest entities. This standard is effective for us in our interim and annual reporting periods beginning on and after January 1, 2010. Earlier application is prohibited. The adoption did not
have an impact on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards
Update 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, which amended ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. This guidance addresses how to determine whether an arrangement involving multiple deliverables contains more than one
unit of accounting, and how to allocate the consideration to each unit of accounting. In an arrangement with multiple deliverables, the delivered item(s) shall be considered a separate unit of accounting if the delivered items have value
to the customer on a stand-alone basis. Items have value on a stand-alone basis if they are sold separately by any vendor or the customer could resell the delivered items on a stand-alone basis and if the arrangement includes a general right of
return relative to the delivered items, delivery or performance of the undelivered items is considered probable and substantially in the control of the vendor.

Arrangement consideration shall be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables based on their relative selling price, except under
certain circumstances such as items recorded at fair value and items not contingent upon the delivery of additional items or meeting other specified performance conditions. The selling price for each deliverable shall be determined using vendor
specific objective evidence (VSOE) of selling price, if it exists, otherwise third-party evidence of selling price. If neither VSOE nor third-party evidence exists for a deliverable, the vendor shall use its best estimate of the selling
price for that deliverable. This guidance eliminates the use of the residual value method for determining allocation of arrangement consideration and allows the use of an entitys best estimate to determine the selling price if VSOE and
third-party evidence cannot be determined. It also requires additional disclosures such as the nature of the arrangement, certain provisions within the arrangement, significant factors used to determine selling prices and the timing of revenue
recognition related to the arrangement. This guidance shall be effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will
have on the determination and reporting of our financial results.

In June 2009, the FASB revised the authoritative guidance for determining
the primary beneficiary of a VIE. In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-17, Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities (ASU 2009-17),
which provides amendments to ASC 810 to reflect the revised guidance. The amendments in ASU 2009-17 replace the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which reporting entity, if any, has a controlling financial interest in
a VIE with an approach focused on identifying which reporting entity has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entitys economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or
(2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. The amendments in ASU 2009-17 also require additional disclosures about a reporting entitys involvement with VIEs. ASU 2009-17 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2010, did not have a significant impact on the
determination or reporting of our financial results.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02,
Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary-a Scope Clarification, which amends ASC 810, Consolidations. This amendment requires new disclosures, including a description of valuation techniques
and inputs used to measure the fair value of any retained investment in a former subsidiary, the nature of any continuing involvement in the subsidiary or acquirer after deconsolidation, and information regarding related party involvement before and
after the transaction. This guidance will be effective for us in our interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2010, did not have a significant impact
on the determination or reporting of our financial results.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about
Fair Value Measurements, which amends ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. This amendment requires new disclosures, including the reasons for and amounts of significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair
value measurements and separate presentation of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the reconciliation of activity for Level 3 fair value measurements. It also clarified guidance related to determining the appropriate classes of
assets and liabilities and the information to be provided for valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This guidance will be effective for us in our interim and annual reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2010. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2010, did not have a significant impact on the determination or reporting of our financial results

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of
Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that
will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. Effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption did not have an
impact on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02,
Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic
810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the
period that it first adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted FAS 160, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after
December 15, 2009. The provisions were adopted on January 1, 2009. The adoption did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued two ASUs that (1) codify SEC Observer comments made at the June 2009 EITF meeting and (2) make technical
corrections to several SEC sections of the FASB Codification. In general, the two ASUs, do not change existing practice. ASU 2010-05, CompensationStock Compensation (Topic 718)Escrowed Share Arrangements and the Presumption of
Compensation, codifies EITF Topic D-110, Escrowed Share Arrangements and the Presumption of Compensation, which provides the SEC staffs view on when an escrowed share arrangement involving shareholders is presumed to be compensatory and the
factors to consider when analyzing whether that presumption has been overcome. The SEC Observer announced the views captured in EITF Topic D-110 at the June 2009 EITF meeting. ASU 2010-04, Accounting for Various TopicsTechnical Corrections to
SEC Paragraphs, primarily includes technical corrections to various topics containing SEC guidance as a result of recently-issued authoritative guidance and updates for Codification references. These two ASUs do not have an impact on the
Companys financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements . This ASU requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Codification
Subtopic 820-10. The FASBs objective is to improve these disclosures and, thus, increase the transparency in financial reporting. Specifically, ASU2010-06 amends Codification Subtopic 820-10 to now require:



| |  |  | A reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and
describe the reasons for the transfers; and,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity should present separately information about
purchases, sales, issuances and settlements.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, ASU2010-06 clarifies the requirements of the following existing
disclosures:



| |  |  | For purposes of reporting fair value measurement for each class of assets and liabilities, a reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the
appropriate classes of assets and liabilities; and,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring
fair value measurements.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

ASU2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009,
except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for
interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The provisions were adopted on January 1, 2009. The adoption did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-08, Technical Corrections to Various Topics, which provides certain
clarifications made to the guidance on embedded derivatives and hedging. The Update was issued to provide special transition provisions upon application of the change in application of the topic. The Company does not believe that this
update will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-09,
Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. ASU 2010-09 removes the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised
financial statements. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised as a result of either correction of an error or retrospective application of U.S. GAAP. The FASB also clarified that if the financial statements have been
revised, then an entity that is not an SEC filer should disclose both the date that the financial statements were issued or available to be issued and the date the revised financial statements were issued or available to be issued. The FASB believes
these amendments remove potential conflicts with the SECs literature. In addition, the amendments in the ASU requires an entity that is a conduit bond obligor for conduit debt securities that are traded in a public market to evaluate
subsequent events through the date of issuance of its financial statements and must disclose such date. All of the amendments in the ASU were effective upon issuance (February 24, 2010) except for the use of the issued date for conduit debt
obligors. That amendment is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The guidance, expect for that related to conduit debt obligations, has been adopted and did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial
Statements.

In March 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-11, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Scope Exception Related
to Embedded Credit Derivatives. The amendments in this Update are effective for each reporting entity at the beginning of its first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted at the beginning of each
entitys first fiscal quarter beginning after issuance of this Update. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-11 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Issued in April 2010, Accounting Standard Update, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Accounting for Certain Tax Effects of the Health Care Reform
Acts, provides guidance that even though the signing dates of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 and the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act were different, the two should be considered together for accounting purposes.
This has no effect on our financials as both dates fell within the same reporting period.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards
Update 2010-13, Compensation-Stock Compensation (topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Tradesa consensus of the FASB Emerging
Issues Task Force. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Earlier application is permitted. The Company does not
expect the provisions of ASU 2010-13 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

None.

Item 3Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not applicable

Item 4TControls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The
Company under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and the Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report
our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported
within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

##### Table of Contents

The effectiveness of any system of controls and procedures is subject to certain limitations, and, as a
result, there can be no assurance that our controls and procedures will detect all errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control
system will be attained.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the
quarter ended March 31, 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including product liability and workers compensation matters which have arisen in the normal
course of operations. The Company has product liability insurance with self insurance retention that ranges from $50 thousand to $1 million. Certain cases are at a preliminary stage, and it is not possible to estimate the amount or timing of any
cost to the Company. However, the Company does not believe that these contingencies, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company. When it is probable that a loss has been incurred and possible to make a reasonable estimate
of the Companys liability with respect to such matters, a provision is recorded for the amount of such estimate or the minimum amount of a range of estimates when it is not possible to estimate the amount within the range that is most likely
to occur.

Our insurance carriers have denied coverage for two product liability claims. The Company believes the insurance companies
basis for denial of coverage is improper. As such, the Company has engaged outside legal representation to challenge the insurance companies denial of coverage. Currently, the Company is engaged in a declaratory judgment action which contests
the denial of coverage.

Item 1ARisk Factors

The Companys risk factors can be found in the Companys most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. No material changes in such
risk factors have occurred.

Item 2Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

On October 6, 2008, the Company issued its $2.0 million promissory note in favor of Terex Corporation (the Term
Note). Under the Term Note, the Company is obligated to make annual principal payments to Terex of $250,000 commencing on March 1, 2009, and on each year thereafter through March 1, 2016. So long as the Companys
common stock is listed for trading on NASDAQ or another national securities exchange, the Company may opt to pay up to $150,000 of each annual principal payment in shares of the Companys common stock having a market value of $150,000. For
purposes of the foregoing provision, the market value of each share of common stock of the Company shall be the average of the closing prices on NASDAQ as reported in The Wall Street Journal (national edition) (or if not reported thereby, any other
authoritative source) for the twenty consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately prior to the date of such payment (the Market Value). Pursuant to the foregoing provision, the Company issued 64,655 shares of its
common stock to Terex on March 1, 2010, in lieu of $150,000 of the principal payment on the Term Note owed to Terex on such date.

On December 31, 2009, Manitex Load King, Inc. (the Purchaser), a Michigan corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company,
entered into a purchase agreement (the Load King Purchase Agreement) with Genie Industries, Inc. ( Genie), a subsidiary of Terex Corporation, to acquire substantially all of Genies operating assets and business
operations, including Genies manufacturing facilities and offices located in Elk Point, South Dakota, and certain liabilities relating to its Load King specialized low-bed, heavy-haul, bottom-dump and platform trailer manufacturing business.
The consideration for the purchase consisted of $100,000, in cash, and the Companys Promissory Note for $2,750,000. At the closing, the Company also issued a promissory note to ensure the delivery to the seller of 130,890 shares
of the Companys common stock, as partial consideration under the Load King Purchase Agreement. On January 6, 2010, the Company issued to Terex 130,890 shares of its common stock in satisfaction of such promissory note.

##### Table of Contents

The above-described shares issued to Terex were issued without registration under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act) in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder, as there was no public offering. In support of those
exemptions from registration, we relied on representations of Terex that it is an accredited investors as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D and acquired the securities for its own account and not for
distribution to others.

The Companys credit agreement with Comerica Bank directly restricts the Companys ability to declare or
pay dividends without Comericas consent. In addition, pursuant to the Companys credit agreement with Comerica, the Company must maintain a minimum tangible effective net worth, as defined in the credit agreement. This tangible net worth
requirement takes into account dividends paid to the Companys shareholders. Therefore, in determining whether the Company can pay dividends, or the amount of dividends that may be paid, the Company will also have to consider whether the
payment of such dividends will allow the Company to maintain the tangible net worth requirement in the Companys credit agreement.
