PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION

BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION BY INDUSTRY

(Dollars in thousands)

(Unaudited)

 

The Company operates in two principal business segments: Industrial and Aerospace. The Industrial Segment is the largest and includes a significant portion of International operations.

 

Industrial - This segment produces a broad range of motion control and fluid systems and components used in all kinds of manufacturing, packaging, processing, transportation, mobile construction, agricultural and military machinery and equipment. Sales are made directly to major original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and through a broad distribution network to smaller OEMs and the aftermarket. Identifiable assets in the Industrial Segment increased significantly since June 30, 2005 due primarily to acquisitions.

 

Aerospace - This segment designs and manufactures products and provides aftermarket support for commercial, military and general aviation aircraft, missile and spacecraft markets. The Aerospace Segment provides a full range of systems and components for hydraulic, pneumatic and fuel applications.

 

The Company also reports a Climate & Industrial Controls Segment. The Climate & Industrial Controls Segment manufactures motion-control systems and components for use primarily in the refrigeration and air conditioning and transportation industries.

 

In August 2005 and December 2004, the Company divested the business units comprising the Other Segment which designed and manufactured custom-engineered buildings and developed and manufactured chemical car care products and maintenance equipment, respectively. The divested business units have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts

 

1. Management representation

 

In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2005, the results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 and cash flows for the three months then ended. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

 

2. Adoption of new accounting pronouncements

 

Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Statement No. 151, “Inventory Costs – an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.” The implementation of this accounting pronouncement did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment.” Refer to footnote 3 for further discussion of the adoption of this Statement.

 

3. Stock incentive plans

 

On July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004) and elected to use the modified prospective transition method. The modified prospective transition method requires that compensation cost be recognized in the financial statements for all awards granted after the date of adoption as well as for existing awards for which the requisite service has not been rendered as of the date of adoption and requires that prior periods not be restated. The Company’s stock incentive plan provides for the granting of nonqualified options and stock appreciation rights (SARs) to officers, directors and key employees of the Company. Outstanding options and SARs are exercisable from one to three years after the date of grant and expire no more than ten years after grant. Prior to the adoption of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), the Company used the intrinsic-value based method to account for stock options and made no charges against earnings with respect to options granted.

 

The adoption of Statement No. 123 (revised 2004) reduced income from continuing operations before income taxes for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 by $17.6 million and reduced net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 by $11.4 million ($.10 per basic and diluted share). The adoption of this Statement had an immaterial effect on the Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The effect of the adoption in the first quarter is not indicative of the effect of the adoption for each quarter of fiscal 2006 due to the requirement to use a non-substantive vesting approach with respect to retirement-eligible employees.

 

- 6 -


3. Stock incentive plans, continued

 

The fair values for the significant stock-based awards granted in 2006, 2005 and 2004 were estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

 

     Aug/05

   Aug/04

   Aug/03

Risk-free rate of return

   4.1%    3.5%    3.4%

Expected life of award

   5.3 yrs    4.2 yrs    4.4 yrs

Expected dividend yield of stock

   1.6%    1.7%    1.7%

Expected volatility of stock

   33.1%    32.7%    36.8%

 

The expected volatility of stock assumption was derived by referring to changes in the Company’s historical common stock prices over a timeframe similar to that of the expected life of the award. The Company has no reason to believe that future stock volatility is likely to differ from historical volatility.

 

The weighted-average fair value of stock-based awards was $21.02 for fiscal 2006 grants, $14.97 for fiscal 2005 grants and $14.38 for fiscal 2004 grants.

 

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in the period.

Net income, as reported

   $ 1.04

 

The total stock-based employee compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2004 was calculated using the non-substantive vesting period approach.

 

- 7 -


4. Earnings per share

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004.

 

    

Three Months Ended

September 30,


     2005

   2004

Numerator:

             

Income from continuing operations applicable to common shares

   $ 143,848    $ 126,036

Denominator:

             

Basic - weighted average common shares

     118,882,679      118,288,566

Increase in weighted average from dilutive effect of equity-based awards

     1,564,689      1,423,466
    

  

Diluted - weighted average common shares, assuming exercise of equity-based awards

     120,447,368      119,712,032
    

  

Basic earnings per share from continuing operations

   $ 1.21    $ 1.06

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations

   $ 1.19    $ 1.05

 

At September 30, 2005 and 2004, 1,298,892 and 577,927 common shares, respectively, subject to equity-based awards were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share from continuing operations because the effect of their exercise would be anti-dilutive.

 

5. Product warranty

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company warrants its products against defect in design, materials and workmanship over various time periods. The warranty accrual as of September 30, 2005 and June 30, 2005 is immaterial to the financial position of the Company and the change in the accrual for the current quarter is immaterial to the Company’s results of operations and cash flows.

 

6. Stock repurchase program

 

The Company has a program to repurchase up to 1 million of the Company’s common shares per year on the open market, at prevailing prices, including the systematic repurchase of no less than $10 million in common shares each fiscal quarter. Repurchases are primarily funded from operating cash flows, and the shares are initially held as treasury stock. The Company repurchased 170,100 shares of its common stock at an average price of $64.15 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2005.

 

- 8 -


7. Comprehensive income

 

The Company’s items of other comprehensive income (loss) are foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains (losses) on marketable equity securities and cash flow hedges. Comprehensive income for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 was as follows:

 

     Three Months Ended
September 30,


 
     2005

    2004

 

Net income

   $ 172,732     $ 132,783  

Foreign currency translation adjustments

     (21,823 )     28,142  

Net realized (gain) loss on marketable equity securities

     (7 )     41  

Unrealized (losses) on marketable equity securities

     (9 )     (10,751 )

Unrealized gain on cash flow hedges

     494          
    


 


Comprehensive income

   $ 151,387     $ 150,215  
    


 


 

The unrealized (losses) on marketable equity securities are net of taxes of $4 and $6,435 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and September 30, 2004, respectively. The realized (gain) loss on marketable equity securities is net of taxes of $5 and $25 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and September 30, 2004, respectively, and is reflected in the Other expense, net caption in the Consolidated Statement of Income. The unrealized gain on cash flow hedges is net of taxes of $315 for the three months ended September 30, 2005.

 

In 2004, the unrealized (losses) on marketable equity securities primarily resulted from the contribution of the marketable equity securities to the Company’s charitable foundation. The contribution of the marketable equity securities had an immaterial effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

 

8. Business realignment charges

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company recorded a $2,770 charge ($1,731 after-tax or $.01 share) for the costs to structure its businesses in light of current and anticipated customer demand. The Company believes the realignment actions will positively impact future results of operations but will have no material effect on liquidity and sources and uses of capital. The charge primarily consists of severance costs and costs to relocate machinery and equipment. The severance costs are attributable to approximately 335 employees in the Climate and Industrial Controls Segment and 80 employees in the Industrial Segment. All severance payments are expected to be made by June 30, 2006. The business realignment costs are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as follows: $1,975 in Cost of sales and $795 in Selling, general and administrative expenses.

8. Business realignment charges, continued

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company recorded a $1,459 charge ($910 after-tax or $.01 per share) for the costs to structure its businesses in light of current and anticipated customer demand. The Company believed the realignment actions would positively impact future results of operations but will have no material effect on liquidity and sources and uses of capital. The charge primarily related to severance costs attributable to approximately 200 employees in the Industrial Segment. All severance payments have been made. The business realignment costs are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the three months ended September 30, 2004 as follows: $1,035 in Cost of sales and $424 in Selling, general and administrative expenses.

In August 2005, the Company acquired SSD, a manufacturer of AC and DC drives, as well as servo drives, motors and systems for leading original equipment manufacturers, end users, and integrators in automated industrial process applications. Annual sales for this business and other businesses acquired during the first quarter of fiscal 2006, for their most recent fiscal year prior to acquisition, were approximately $213 million. Total purchase price for all businesses acquired during the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was approximately $153 million in cash and $165 million in assumed debt. The purchase price allocations for fiscal 2006 acquisitions are preliminary and will require subsequent adjustment.

 

In August 2005, the Company divested a business unit which manufactured custom-engineered buildings. In December 2004, the Company divested a business unit which develops and manufactures chemical car care products and maintenance equipment. These businesses were part of the Other Segment for segment reporting purposes.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2005

AND COMPARABLE PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2004

 

OVERVIEW

 

The Company is a leading worldwide diversified manufacturer of motion control technologies and systems, providing precision engineered solutions for a wide variety of commercial, mobile, industrial and aerospace markets.

 

The Company’s order rates are highly indicative of the Company’s future revenues and thus a key metric for future performance. The Company publishes its order rates on a monthly basis. The lead time between the time an order is received and revenue is realized can range from one day to 12 weeks for commercial, mobile and industrial orders and three to 18 months for aerospace orders.

 

The Company believes the leading economic indicators of these markets that have a strong correlation to the Company’s future order rates are the Institute of Supply Management (ISM) index of manufacturing activity with respect to commercial, mobile and industrial markets and aircraft miles flown, revenue passenger miles and Department of Defense spending for aerospace markets. An ISM index above 50 indicates that the manufacturing economy is expanding resulting in the expectation that the Company’s order rates in the commercial, mobile and industrial markets should be increasing. The ISM index at the end of September 2005 was 59.4 compared to 53.8 at the end of June 2005. With respect to the aerospace market, aircraft miles flown and passenger miles have shown improvement in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 over comparable fiscal 2005 levels while Department of Defense spending remained relatively flat.

 

The Company also believes that there is a high correlation between interest rates and industrial manufacturing activity. The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate twice during fiscal 2006 and nine times during fiscal 2005. Additional increases in interest rates could have a negative impact on industrial production thereby lowering future order rates.

 

The Company’s major opportunities for growth are as follows:

 

    Leverage the Company’s broad product line with customers desiring to consolidate their vendor base and outsource engineering,

 

    Marketing systems solutions for customer applications,

 

    Expand the Company’s business presence outside of North America,

 

    New product introductions, including those resulting from the Company’s innovation initiatives, and

 

    Strategic acquisitions.

 

The financial condition of the Company remains strong as evidenced by the continued generation of substantial cash flows from operations, a debt to debt-equity ratio of 21.3 percent, ample borrowing capabilities and strong credit ratings. Cash flow from operations for the first three months of fiscal 2006 were $217 million or 10.3% of sales.

 

Many acquisition opportunities remain available to the Company within its target markets. During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company completed three acquisitions with combined annual revenues of approximately $213 million. Since the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company has completed

 

- 13 -


four additional acquisitions and has acquired or received committed shares representing the majority of the outstanding shares of the domnick hunter group, plc. The additional acquisitions have annual revenues of approximately $380 million. Acquisitions will continue to be considered from time to time to the extent there is a strong strategic fit, while at the same time, maintaining the Company’s strong financial position. The Company will also continue to assess the strategic fit of its existing businesses and initiate efforts to divest businesses that are not considered to be a good long-term fit for the Company, as evidenced by the divestiture of the business unit that manufactured custom-engineered buildings.

 

Current challenges facing the Company include maintaining premier customer service levels while benefiting from strong customer demand, successfully matching price increases to raw material price increases and the rising expenses related to employee retirement and health care benefits. The Company has implemented a number of strategic financial performance initiatives relating to growth and margin improvement in order to meet these challenges, including strategic procurement, strategic pricing, lean manufacturing and business realignments.

 

The discussion below is structured to provide a separate analysis of the Consolidated Statement of Income, Results by Business Segment, Balance Sheet and Statement of Cash Flows.

Discontinued operations

   $ 28.9     $ 6.7  

Backlog

   $ 2,274.3     $ 2,088.8  

 

Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased 12.5 percent over the prior-year first quarter net sales reflecting higher volume experienced in all Segments. Acquisitions made in the last 12 months contributed almost 60 percent of the net sales increase and the effect of currency rate changes contributed about 7 percent of the net sales increase.

 

Gross profit margin increased due to a combination of the increase in sales as well as the effects of the Company’s financial performance initiatives. Included in current-year gross profit is $4.5 million of expense related to stock-based compensation awards. Included in current-year and prior-year gross profit was $2.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively, in business realignment charges (see Note 8 on page 9 for further discussion).

 

- 14 -


Selling, general and administrative expenses increased primarily due to expenses related to stock-based compensation awards, which amounted to $13.1 million in the current-year quarter, as well as higher amortization expense related to intangible assets.

 

Interest expense for the current-year quarter increased 1.8 percent primarily due to expenses associated with the Company’s new revolving credit agreement.

 

Other expense, net in the prior-year quarter includes an $8.8 million expense related to the writedown of a real estate investment.

 

Income from continuing operations for the current-year quarter was adversely affected by an additional expense of approximately $4.7 million related to domestic qualified defined benefit plans, resulting primarily from changes in actuarial assumptions and the amortization of actuarial losses. Income from continuing operations for the prior-year quarter was adversely affected by a $4.6 million pension curtailment loss.

 

Discontinued operations represents the operating results and related gain on the sale, net of tax of the Astron Buildings business which was divested in August 2005 and the Wynn’s Specialty Chemical business which was divested in December 2004. Included in discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2005 is an after-tax gain on the sale of Astron of approximately $27.8 million. The gain is primarily attributable to foreign currency translation adjustments.

 

Backlog increased from the prior year due to an increase in order rates throughout most businesses in the Aerospace and Industrial Segments. Backlog declined from the June 30, 2005 amount of $2,304.2 million due to shipments exceeding new order rates during the current-year quarter, the largest decline occurring in the Aerospace Segment.

International

     13.0 %     12.1 %

Backlog

   $ 938.8     $ 818.1  

 

The increase in Industrial North American sales reflects higher end-user demand experienced across most of the Industrial North American markets, particularly in the heavy-duty truck, construction, industrial machine tools and mobile equipment markets partially offset by lower demand in the semiconductor manufacturing market. The increase in Industrial International sales is attributed to higher volume across most markets in Europe and the Asia Pacific region. Acquisitions and currency rate changes accounted for approximately 60 percent of the Industrial North American sales increase and approximately 70 percent of the Industrial International sales increase.

 

The increase in Industrial North American and Industrial International margins is primarily due to the higher sales volume and benefits realized from the Company’s financial performance initiatives and benefits from past business realignments. Acquisitions, not yet fully integrated, negatively impacted Industrial North American margins in the current-year quarter.

 

- 15 -


The increase in backlog from a year ago is due to higher order rates experienced in virtually all of the markets of the Industrial North American and Industrial International operations. Backlog declined from the June 30, 2005 amount of $944.1 million due to shipments exceeding new order rates in the current-year quarter.

 

The Company anticipates sales volume in the Industrial Segment for the remainder of fiscal 2006 to exceed comparable fiscal 2005 levels at the same rate as the current-year quarter. For the balance of fiscal 2006, Industrial North American operating margins are expected to increase in the low single-digit range while Industrial International operating margins are expected to increase in the mid-single-digit range. The Company expects to continue to take the actions necessary to structure appropriately the Industrial Segment operations to operate in their current economic environment. Such actions may include the necessity to record additional business realignment charges in fiscal 2006.

Operating income, as a percent of sales

     15.7 %     15.5 %

Backlog

   $ 1,206.5     $ 1,166.6  

 

The increase in sales in the Aerospace Segment is primarily due to an increase in both military and commercial original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and aftermarket volume. The higher margins were primarily due to a higher concentration of sales occurring in the aftermarket businesses in the current-year quarter.

 

The increase in backlog from a year ago is due to higher order rates experienced in both the commercial and military businesses. Shipments exceeded order rates in the current quarter resulting in the slight decline in backlog from the June 30, 2005 amount of $1,229.4 million. The Company expects an upward trend in commercial order rates for the balance of fiscal 2006 and expects order rates in the military market to remain at current levels. Heavier commercial OEM volume in future product mix could result in lower margins.

Backlog

   $ 129.1     $ 103.4  

 

The increase in sales in the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment is primarily due to acquisitions as well as higher end-user demand in the commercial air conditioning market. The decrease in margins is primarily due to business realignment charges incurred in the current-year quarter.

 

The increase in backlog from the prior-year quarter is primarily due to acquisitions as well as higher order rates in the residential air conditioning market. For the remainder of fiscal 2006, sales and operating margins are expected to increase in the mid-double-digit range. The Company expects to continue to take the actions necessary to structure appropriately the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment operations to operate in their current economic environment. Such actions may include the necessity to record additional business realignment charges in fiscal 2006.

 

- 16 -


Corporate general and administrative expenses increased to $28.8 million for fiscal 2006 compared to $25.3 million in the prior year. As a percent of sales, corporate general and administrative expenses for the current-year quarter increased slightly to 1.4 percent compared to 1.3 percent in the prior year. The higher expense in the current-year quarter is primarily due to higher incentive compensation resulting from current-quarter results.

 

Included in Other expense (in the Business Segment Results by Industry) in fiscal 2006 is $17.6 million of expense related to stock-based compensation awards. Included in Other expense in fiscal 2005 is an $8.8 million expense associated with the writedown of a real estate investment.

 

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

In August 2005, the Company divested a business unit which manufactured custom-engineered buildings. In December 2004, the Company divested a business unit which developed and manufactured chemical car care products and maintenance equipment. These businesses were the remaining businesses of the Other Segment for segment reporting purposes, which has now been eliminated. The following results of operations for these business units have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Accounts receivable are primarily receivables due from customers for sales of product ($1,140.3 million at September 30, 2005 and $1,111.1 million at June 30, 2005). Days sales outstanding relating to trade accounts receivable increased to 50 days from 47 days during the quarter.

 

Inventories increased $51.1 million since June 30, 2005 primarily due to acquisitions, with days supply increasing to 70 days from 65 days at June 30, 2005.

 

Plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, decreased primarily as a result of depreciation exceeding capital expenditures partially offset by plant and equipment acquired in current-year acquisitions.

 

Other assets decreased since June 30, 2005 primarily as a result of decreases in qualified benefit plan assets, partially offset by an increase in deferred income taxes. Deferred income taxes increased primarily due to the tax effect of pensions and stock compensation expense.

 

Accounts payable, trade decreased from June 30, 2005 primarily in the Industrial Segment.

 

Accrued liabilities decreased primarily as a result of the payment of fiscal 2005 incentive compensation during the current-year quarter, partially offset by an increase due to acquisitions.

 

Accrued domestic and foreign taxes increased primarily due to higher taxable income in fiscal 2006.

 

Due to the strengthening of the dollar, foreign currency translation adjustments resulted in a decrease in shareholders’ equity of $21.8 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2006. The translation adjustments primarily affected Accounts receivable, Goodwill, Net assets of discontinued operations, Long-term debt and Pensions and other postretirement benefits.

Cash flows from operating activities - The increase in net cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2006 is primarily due to an increase in net income partially offset by net income from discontinued operations. Net cash provided by operating activities also increased due to working capital items, primarily inventories and accrued domestic and foreign taxes, partially offset by accounts payable, trade.

 

Cash flow used in investing activities - The increase in the amount of cash used in investing activities in fiscal 2006 is attributable primarily to an increase in acquisition activity partially offset by an increase in proceeds from the sale of businesses. Capital expenditures increased $3.9 million in fiscal 2006. Included in Other in fiscal 2005 is the write down of a real estate investment.

 

Cash flow from financing activities - In fiscal 2006, the Company decreased its outstanding borrowings by a net total of $179.1 million compared to a decrease of $3.5 million in fiscal 2005. Included in the current-year repayment of borrowings is debt assumed in acquisitions. The substantial level of cash flow from operating activities allowed the Company to minimize the borrowings necessary to complete acquisitions in fiscal 2006. Common stock activity provided cash of $7.4 million in fiscal 2006 compared to using cash of $0.1 million in fiscal 2005. The increase in cash provided by common stock activity in fiscal 2006 is primarily due to the exercise of stock options and the issuance of restricted stock, partially offset by the purchase of shares of the Company’s common stock for treasury.

 

- 18 -


Excluded from Cash flows from financing activities is a decrease in book overdrafts of $14.2 million for the current-year first quarter and an increase in book overdrafts of $12.2 million for the prior-year first quarter. These cash flows are included in Accounts payable, trade in Cash flows from operating activities. The book overdrafts result from a delay in sweeping cash from one bank to another and are settled the next business day; therefore, the book overdrafts are not considered bank borrowings by the Company.

 

The Company’s goal is to maintain no less than an “A” rating on senior debt to ensure availability and reasonable cost of external funds. As a means of achieving this objective, the Company has established a financial goal of maintaining a ratio of debt to debt-equity of 34 to 37 percent.

The Company has a line of credit totaling $1,025 million through a multi-currency revolving credit agreement with a group of banks, all of which was available as of September 30, 2005. The Company has the right, no more than once a year, to increase the facility amount, in minimum increments of $25 million up to a maximum facility amount of $1,250 million. The credit agreement expires September 2010, however the Company has the right to request a one-year extension of the expiration date on an annual basis. The credit agreement supports the Company’s commercial paper note program, which is rated A-1 by Standard & Poor’s, P-1 by Moody’s and F-1 by Fitch, Inc. These ratings are considered investment grade. The revolving credit agreement requires a facility fee of 5/100ths of one percent of the commitment per annum at the Company’s present rating level. The revolving credit agreement contains provisions that increase the facility fee of the credit agreement in the event the Company’s credit ratings are lowered. A lowering of the Company’s credit ratings would not limit the Company’s ability to use the credit agreement nor would it accelerate the repayment of any outstanding borrowings.

 

The Company’s revolving credit agreement and certain debt agreements contain certain financial and other covenants, the violation of which would limit or preclude the use of the agreements for future borrowings. At the Company’s present rating level, the most restrictive financial covenant provides that the ratio of secured debt to net tangible assets be less than 10 percent. As of September 30, 2005, the ratio of secured debt to net tangible assets was less than one percent. The Company is in compliance with all covenants and expects to remain in compliance during the term of the agreements.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The following critical accounting policy should be read in conjunction with the critical accounting policies discussed in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K .

 

Stock-based compensation – The computation of the expense associated with stock-based compensation requires the use of a valuation model. The Company currently uses a Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of its stock options and stock appreciation rights. The Black-Scholes model requires assumptions regarding the volatility of the Company’s stock, the expected life of the stock award and the Company’s dividend ratio. The Company primarily uses historical data to determine the assumptions to be used in the Black-Scholes model and has no reason to believe that future data is likely to differ from historical data. However, changes in the assumptions to reflect future

 

- 19 -


stock price volatility, future dividend payments and future stock award exercise experience could result in a change in the assumptions used to value awards in the future that may result in a material change to the fair value calculation of stock-based awards.

 

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

 

On July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004) (FAS 123R) and elected to use the modified prospective transition method . The modified prospective transition method requires compensation cost to be recognized in the financial statements for all awards granted after the date of adoption as well as for existing awards for which the requisite service has not been rendered as of the date of adoption. Prior to the adoption of FAS 123R, the Company used the intrinsic-value based method to account for stock options and made no charges against earnings with respect to options granted.

 

The Company’s stock incentive plans provides for the granting of nonqualified options and stock appreciation rights (SARs) to officers, directors and key employees of the Company. Outstanding options and SARs are exercisable from one to three years after the date of grant and expire no more than ten years after grant. The Company uses a Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of nonqualified options and SARs granted. The adoption of FAS 123R reduced income from continuing operations before income taxes for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 by $17.6 million and reduced net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 by $11.4 million ($.10 per basic and diluted share). The adoption of this Statement had an immaterial effect on the Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The effect of the adoption in the first quarter is not indicative of the effect of the adoption for each quarter of fiscal 2006 due to the requirement to use a non-substantive vesting approach with respect to retirement-eligible employees. As of September 30, 2005, $26.5 million of expense with respect to unvested stock-based awards has yet to be recognized and will be amortized into expense over the employee’s remaining requisite service period.

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Forward-looking statements contained in this Report on Form 10-Q and other written reports and oral statements are made based on known events and circumstances at the time of release, and as such, are subject in the future to unforeseen uncertainties and risks. All statements regarding future performance, earnings projections, events or developments are forward-looking statements. It is possible that the future performance and earnings projections of the Company may differ materially from current expectations, depending on economic conditions within both its industrial and aerospace markets, and the Company’s ability to achieve anticipated benefits associated with announced realignment activities, strategic initiatives to improve operating margins and growth and innovation initiatives. A change in the economic conditions in individual markets may have a particularly volatile effect on segment performance. Among other factors which may affect future performance are:

 

  changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers or suppliers, including delays or cancellations in shipments,

 

  uncertainties surrounding timing, successful completion or integration of acquisitions,

 

  threats associated with and efforts to combat terrorism,

 

  competitive market conditions and resulting effects on sales and pricing,

 

  increases in raw material costs that cannot be recovered in product pricing,

 

  the Company’s ability to manage costs related to insurance and employee retirement and health care benefits, and

 

- 20 -


  global economic factors, including manufacturing activity, air travel trends, currency exchange rates, difficulties entering new markets and general economic conditions such as inflation and interest rates.

 

The Company undertakes no obligation to update or publicly revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this Report.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

The Company enters into forward exchange contracts and costless collar contracts to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in related foreign currencies. These contracts are with major financial institutions and the risk of loss is considered remote. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. In addition, the Company’s foreign locations, in the ordinary course of business, enter into financial guarantees through financial institutions, which enable customers to be reimbursed in the event of nonperformance by the Company. The total carrying and fair value of open contracts and any risk to the Company as a result of these arrangements is not material to the Company’s financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

 

The Company has entered into two interest rate swap agreements for a total notional amount of EUR 300 million. The swap agreements expire in November 2005 and effectively protect the Company from adverse interest rate changes in the EURO bond market and have been designated as a hedge against the Company’s anticipated refinancing of its EURO Notes that are due in November 2005. The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements was a liability of approximately $11 million at September 30, 2005 compared to a liability of approximately $12 million at June 30, 2005. The liability has been recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The net payment or receipt under the swap agreements will be recognized as an adjustment to interest expense over the term of the EURO Notes anticipated to be issued in November 2005.

 

The Company’s debt portfolio contains variable rate debt, inherently exposing the Company to interest rate risk. The Company’s objective is to maintain a 60/40 mix between fixed rate and variable rate debt thereby limiting its exposure to changes in near-term interest rates.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

 

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
