These costs are included in the total research and development cost for each of the respective years.
Patents, Trademarks, Licenses
The Company owns a number of patents, trademarks and licenses related to its products and has exclusive and non-exclusive rights to use a number of patents owned by others. In addition, patent applications on certain products are now pending, although there can be no assurance that patents will be issued. The Company is not dependent to any material extent on any single patent or group of patents.
Backlog and Seasonal Nature of Business
The Companys backlog by business segment for the past two fiscal years, as set forth on pages 13-5 to 13-6 of Exhibit 13 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K, is incorporated into this section by reference. The Companys backlog at June 30, 2007 was approximately $2,935,232,549 and at June 30, 2006 was approximately $2,695,876,258. Approximately 87% of the Companys backlog at June 30,
- 5 -
2007 is scheduled for delivery in the succeeding twelve months. The Companys business generally is not seasonal in nature.
Environmental Regulation
The Company is subject to U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations designed to protect the environment and to regulate the discharge of materials into the environment. Among other environmental laws, the Company is subject to the U.S. federal Superfund law, under which the Company has been designated as a potentially responsible party and may be liable for cleanup costs associated with various waste sites, some of which are on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys Superfund priority list.
As of June 30, 2007, the Company is involved in environmental remediation at 34 manufacturing facilities presently or formerly operated by the Company and has been named as a potentially responsible party, along with other companies, at one off-site waste disposal facility and three regional sites.
The Company believes that its policies, practices and procedures are properly designed to prevent unreasonable risk of environmental damage and the consequent financial liability to the Company. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations requires continuing management effort and expenditures by the Company. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations has not had in the past, and, the Company believes, will not have in the future, material effects on the capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position of the Company.
As of June 30, 2007, the Company has a reserve of $17,832,500 for environmental matters which are probable and reasonably estimable. This reserve is recorded based upon the best estimate of costs to be incurred in light of the progress made in determining the magnitude of remediation costs, the timing and extent of remedial actions required by governmental authorities and the amount of the Companys liability in proportion to other responsible parties.
The Companys estimated total liability for the above mentioned sites ranges from a minimum of $17,832,500 to a maximum of $73,148,029. The largest estimate for any one site is approximately $7,854,753. The actual costs to be incurred by the Company will be dependent on final delineation of contamination, final determination of remedial action required, negotiations with federal and state agencies with respect to cleanup levels, changes in regulatory requirements, innovations in investigatory and remedial technology, effectiveness of remedial technologies employed, the ultimate ability to pay of the other responsible parties, and any insurance or third-party recoveries.
Energy Matters and Sources and Availability of Raw Materials
The Companys primary energy source for each of its business segments is electric power. While the Company cannot predict future costs of such electric power, the primary source for production of the required electric power will be coal from substantial, proven coal reserves available to electric utilities. The Company is subject to governmental regulations in regard to energy supplies both in the United
- 6 -
States and elsewhere. To date, the Company has not experienced any significant disruptions of its operations due to energy curtailments.
Steel, brass, aluminum, elastomeric and thermoplastic materials and chemicals are the principal raw materials used by the Company. These materials are available from numerous sources in quantities sufficient to meet the requirements of the Company.
Employees
The Company employed 57,338 persons as of June 30, 2007, of whom approximately 28,873 were employed by foreign subsidiaries.
Business Segment Information
The Companys net sales, segment operating income and identifiable assets by business segment and net sales and long-lived assets by geographic area for the past three fiscal years, as set forth on pages 13-14 to 13-15 of Exhibit 13 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K, are incorporated into this section by reference.
Acquisitions and Divestitures
During fiscal year 2007, the Company completed a number of acquisitions. The description of these transactions, as set forth on pages 13-21 to 13-22 of Exhibit 13 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K, is incorporated into this section by reference.
ITEM 1A. Risk Factors.
The Companys business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows are subject to various risk factors, including, but not limited to those set forth below, any one of which could cause actual results to vary materially from recent results or from anticipated future results. These risk factors should be considered together with information included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The risk factors described below are those that the Company believes are currently the most significant. Additional risk factors not currently known to the Company or that the Company believes are immaterial also may impair the Companys business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The Company is subject to risks relating to its foreign operations.
In fiscal year 2007, approximately 43% of the Companys net sales were derived from customers outside the United States. In addition, many of the Companys manufacturing operations and suppliers are located outside the United States. The Company expects net sales from foreign markets to continue to represent a significant portion of its total net sales. The Companys foreign operations are subject to risk in addition to those risks of its domestic operations, including:
| fluctuations in currency exchange rates; |
- 7 -
| limitations on ownership and on repatriation of earnings; |
| transportation delays and interruptions; |
| political, social and economic instability and disruptions; |
| government embargoes or foreign trade restrictions; |
| the imposition of duties and tariffs and other trade barriers; |
| import and export controls; |
| labor unrest and current and changing regulatory environments; |
| the potential for nationalization of enterprises; |
| difficulties in staffing and managing multi-national operations; |
| limitations on its ability to enforce legal rights and remedies; and |
| potentially adverse tax consequences. |
If the Company is unable to manage successfully the risks associated with expanding its global business or adequately manage operational fluctuations internationally, the risks could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, results of operations or financial condition.
Demand for and supply of the Companys products may be adversely affected by numerous factors, some of which the Company cannot predict or control, which could adversely affect its results of operations.
Numerous factors may affect the demand for and supply of the Companys products, including:
| changes in the market acceptance of its products; |
| increased competition in the markets it serves; |
| changes in economic conditions in individual markets; |
| declines in the general level of industrial production; or |
| declines in the availability or increases in the prices of raw materials. |
If any of these factors occur, the demand for and supply of the Companys products could suffer, which would adversely affect its results of operations.
The Company operates in a highly competitive environment.
The Companys domestic and foreign operations are subject to significant competitive pressures. To compete successfully, the Companys Industrial Segment and Climate & Industrial Controls Segment must excel in terms of product quality and innovation, customer service, manufacturing and distribution capability and price competitiveness and its Aerospace Segment must excel on the basis of technological and engineering capability, quality, delivery and service, and price competitiveness. The financial resources and performance of certain of the Companys competitors may put the Company at a competitive disadvantage, which would adversely affect its results of operations.
The Companys future growth is partly dependent on the development of new products and technologies and preservation of its intellectual property.
- 8 -
The markets the Company operates in are characterized by rapidly changing technologies and frequent introductions of new products and services. The Companys ability to develop new products based on technological innovation can affect its competitive position and often requires the investment of significant resources. Difficulties or delays in research, development or production of new products and services or failure to gain market acceptance of new products and technologies may significantly reduce future revenues and materially adversely affect the Companys competitive position.
Protecting the Companys intellectual property is critical to its innovation efforts. The Company owns a number of patents, trademarks and licenses related to its products and has exclusive and non-exclusive rights under patents owned by others. The Companys intellectual property may be challenged or infringed upon by third parties or the Company may be unable to maintain, renew or enter into new license agreements with third-party owners of intellectual property on reasonable terms. Unauthorized use of the Companys intellectual property rights or inability to preserve existing intellectual property rights could materially adversely impact the Companys competitive position and results of operations.
The raw materials used in the Companys production processes and by its suppliers of component parts are subject to price and supply fluctuations that could increase the Companys costs of products and adversely affect the Companys results of operations.
The Companys supply of raw materials for its businesses could be interrupted for a variety of reasons, including availability and pricing. Prices for raw materials necessary for production have fluctuated significantly in the past and significant increases could adversely affect the Companys results of operations and profit margins. While the Company generally attempts to pass along increased raw material prices to its customers in the form of price increases, there may be a time delay between the increased raw material prices and the Companys ability to increase the price of its products, or it may be unable to increase the prices of its products due to pricing pressure or other factors.
The Companys suppliers of component parts may significantly and quickly increase their prices in response to increases in costs of raw materials that they use to manufacture their component parts. In those circumstances, the Company may not be able to increase its prices commensurately with its increased costs. Consequently, its results of operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected.
The Company may face limitations on its ability to complete acquisitions or successfully integrate acquired businesses.
The Company expects to continue its strategy of identifying and acquiring businesses with complementary products and services that it believes will enhance its operations and profitability. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to find suitable businesses to purchase or that it will be able to acquire such businesses on acceptable terms.
In addition, no guarantee can be given that the Company will be able to integrate successfully any business that it purchases into its existing business or that any acquired businesses will be profitable. The successful integration of new businesses depends on the Companys ability to manage these new businesses and cut excess costs. If the Company is unable to complete the integration of new businesses
- 9 -
in a timely manner, its results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
Potential product liability risks exist from the products that the Company sells.
The Companys businesses expose it to potential product liability risks that are inherent in the design, manufacture and sale of its products and the products of third-party vendors that it uses or resells. The Company currently maintains what it believes to be suitable and adequate product liability insurance. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to maintain its product liability insurance on acceptable terms or that its product liability insurance will provide adequate protection against potential liabilities. In the event of a claim against it, a lack of sufficient insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. Moreover, even if it maintains adequate insurance, any successful claim could have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, liquidity and results of operations and on the ability to obtain suitable or adequate insurance.
The Company may be adversely affected by the impact of environmental and safety regulations to which it is subject.
The Companys operations necessitate the use and handling of hazardous materials and, as a result, it is subject to various U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations designed to protect the environment and to regulate the discharge of materials into the environment. These laws impose penalties, fines and other sanctions for non-compliance and liability for response costs, property damage and personal injury resulting from past and current spills, disposals or other releases of, or the exposure to, hazardous materials. Among other environmental laws, the Company is subject to the U.S. federal Superfund law, under which it has been designated as a potentially responsible party and may be liable for clean-up costs associated with various waste sites, some of which are on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys Superfund priority list. The Company could incur substantial costs as a result of non-compliance with or liability for cleanup or other costs or damages under environmental laws, including the Superfund law.
The Company may be subject to more stringent environmental laws in the future. If more stringent environmental laws are enacted in the future, these laws could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, results of operations and financial condition.
The Company does business with the U.S government and as such is subject to increased government regulations.
In addition to normal business risks, doing business with the U.S. government subjects the Company to increased risks, including dependence on the level of government spending and compliance with and changes in governmental procurement regulations. Agreements relating to the sale of products to government entities may be subject to termination, reduction or modification, either at the convenience of the government or for the Companys failure to perform under the applicable contract. The Company is subject to government investigations of business practices and compliance with government procurement regulations. If the Company were charged with wrongdoing as a result of any
- 10 -
such investigation, it could be suspended from bidding on or receiving awards of new government contracts, which could have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of operations.
Changes in the Companys tax rates or exposure to additional income tax liabilities could affect profitability.
The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and in various foreign jurisdictions. Domestic and international tax liabilities are subject to the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions. The Companys effective tax rate could be adversely affected by changes in the mix among earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in the valuation allowance of deferred tax assets or tax laws. The amount of income taxes paid is subject to ongoing audits by U.S. federal, state and local tax authorities and by non-U.S. authorities. If these audits result in assessments different from amounts reserved, future financial results may include unfavorable adjustments to the Companys tax liabilities.
Increasing costs of certain employee and retiree benefits could adversely affect the Companys results of operations.
The amount of expenses recorded for the Companys defined benefit pension plans is dependent on changes in market interest rates and the value of plan assets, which are dependent on actual plan asset returns. Significant changes in market interest rates and decreases in the fair value of plan assets and investment losses on plan assets may adversely affect the Companys future results of operations.

The Company believes that its properties have been adequately maintained, are in good condition generally and are suitable and adequate for its business as presently conducted. The extent of utilization of the Companys properties varies among its plants and from time to time. The Companys
- 21 -
restructuring efforts over the past several years have brought capacity levels closer to present and anticipated needs. Most of the Companys material manufacturing facilities remain capable of handling additional volume increases.
ITEM 3. Legal Proceedings. On April 27, 2007, a grand jury in the Southern District of Florida issued a subpoena to the Companys subsidiary, Parker ITR. The subpoena requires the production of documents, in particular documents related to communications with competitors and customers related to Parker ITRs marine oil and gas hose business. The Company is responding to this subpoena. On May 7, 2007, the Japan Fair Trade Commission (JFTC) requested that Parker ITR appoint an agent related to an investigation of marine hose suppliers. Parker ITR appointed such an agent by power of attorney. Parker ITR has also been required to submit a report to the JTFC on specific topics. The Company and Parker ITR continue to cooperate with the JFTC. On May 15, 2007, the European Commission issued a Request for Information to the Company and its subsidiary, Parker ITR. After the Company and Parker ITR filed a response the European Commission requested additional information. The Company and Parker ITR continue to cooperate with the European Commission
In addition, there are currently four class action lawsuits pending in the Southern District of Florida and one in the Southern District of New York alleging that the Company, Parker ITR and a number of other defendants engaged in violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Act. The class action complaints allege that Parker ITR and the other defendants, for a period of at least eight years, conspired with competitors in unreasonable restraint of trade to artificially raise, fix, maintain or stabilize prices, rig bids and allocate markets and customers for marine oil and gas hose in the United States. In three cases, a summons has been issued for Parker ITR, but service has not yet been effected. The Company, which is only named in one case in the Southern District of Florida, was served on July 13, 2007 and had filed its answer denying the allegations.

(1) | On August 16, 1990, the Company publicly announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 3.0 million shares of its common stock. From time to time, the Board of Directors has adjusted the number of shares authorized for repurchase under this program. On January 25, 2007, the Company publicly announced that its Board of Directors approved an increase in the number of shares authorized for repurchase under this program so that, beginning on such date, the aggregate number of shares authorized for repurchase was equal to 10 million.

ITEM 6. Selected Financial Data. The information set forth on page 13-44 of Exhibit 13 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K is incorporated into this section by reference.
ITEM 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The information set forth on pages 13-2 to 13-12 of Exhibit 13 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K is incorporated into this section by reference.
ITEM 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. The Company enters into forward exchange contracts and costless collar contracts to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currencies. In addition, in the ordinary course of business, the Companys foreign locations
- 23 -
enter into various financial guarantees through financial institutions which enable customers to be reimbursed in the event of non-performance by the Company. The total carrying amount and fair value amount of open contracts and any risk to the Company as a result of these arrangements is not material to the Companys financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
The Companys debt portfolio contains variable rate debt, inherently exposing the Company to interest rate risk. The Companys 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. A 100 basis point increase in near-term interest rates would increase annual interest expense on variable rate debt by approximately $2,051,323.
For further discussion, see the discussion of Significant Accounting Policies Footnote on pages 13-19 to 13-20 of Exhibit 13 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K and incorporated into this section by reference.

Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of fiscal year 2007, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

NOTICE OF CHANGE TO LONG TERM DISABILITY (LTD) BENEFIT
& TAX ELECTION FORM
As part of our ongoing review process we have enhanced the Long Term Disability (LTD) benefit for all employees on the executive payroll (Grade 19 and above, General Managers and Vice Presidents).
The change, which was effective as of April 15, 2007, increases the maximum monthly benefit to which you may be entitled under the LTD plan. With this change, your new LTD benefit is two-thirds (2/3) of your annual compensation1 up to $595,000. This is a significant increase in your potential LTD benefit, from a cap of $8,888 per month to $33,000 per month.
Your new LTD benefit will be achieved through the issuance of two (2) separate insurance policies: (1) a group policy having a maximum monthly benefit of $15,000; and (2) an individual insurance policy having a maximum monthly benefit of up to $18,000. When combined, your new benefit will replace two-thirds (2/3) of your annual compensation up to $595,000.
The cost of your LTD benefit is paid by Parker and is determined based on individual factors, including your age.
[The following two paragraphs would be included only in letters sent to executives who participate in Parkers Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan.]
As a participant of Parkers Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP), if you have at least 10 years of service and become disabled as defined in the LTD plan, you are eligible for early retirement under the SERP. Your SERP benefit would be 55% of your annual compensation, less the following:
(a) | Company contributions towards your Social Security benefits; |
(b) | 1% per year for the first 5 years before age 65; |
(c) | 2% per year for any additional years prior to age 60; and |
(d) | The excess, if any, of your combined SERP and LTD benefits over two-thirds (2/3) of your annual compensation. |
1 |
Annual compensation is defined as your base salary plus RONA bonuses paid during the calendar year ending 12/31 of the year prior to your disability. |
Your total disability benefit from this entire new LTD package and the SERP benefit will not exceed two-thirds (2/3) of your annual compensation.
As a member of Parkers leadership team, we are committed to delivering you a competitive total rewards package. This enhanced disability benefit is part of that package and is reflective of this on-going commitment. We suggest you share a copy of this notice with your financial advisor.
This benefit will be administered by Oswald Companies. Either Maryann Hudec or Scott Thompson would be pleased to answer any questions you have regarding this benefit. Their contact information is provided below for your convenience.
Your Individual Long-Term Disability Benefits Summary:
(a) | Your Monthly Benefit: Based on your annual compensation as of 12/31/2006, if you were to become disabled as defined under the policy, you would be currently eligible to receive the following LTD benefits: |
(i) | Group Policy: $ ___________ per month. |
(ii) | Individual Policy: $ ____________ per month. |
(b) | Parkers Cost: The estimated premium cost to Parker for these policies is $ , however, because the cost of this benefit is determined based on individual factors, this amount will not be confirmed until you have submitted the UnumProvident Guaranteed Standard Application (see below). |
Action Required:
In order to participate in this benefit, you must fill out and complete the UnumProvident Guaranteed Standard Application included with this letter and the Tax Election portion of this letter return both in the enclosed envelope no later than May 31, 2007.
LONG-TERM DISABILITY BENEFIT
TAX ELECTION:
Because the cost of your LTD benefit is paid by Parker, it is considered additional compensation, and is taxable to you. You may elect to have this benefit taxed either at the time the premiums are paid on your behalf, or upon your receipt of disability benefits should that occur.
Please elect one of the following options for the taxation of your LTD benefit:
¨ (1) I elect to have the cost of premiums paid by Parker for my LTD benefit included in my monthly earnings. Accordingly, I will be currently subject to tax on such amount and each month Parker will withhold applicable income and employment taxes in accordance with IRS requirements. However, If I become disabled and qualify for this benefit, I WILL NOT pay federal income tax or employment tax on the benefit when received. Your additional compensation and withholding for the first month will be based on premiums
which were paid to commence coverage on 4/15/2007, the effective date of the policy.
¨ (2) I elect not to have the cost of premiums paid by Parker for my LTD benefit added to my monthly earnings. While I will not currently be subject to income or employment taxes on this amount, if I become disabled and qualify for this benefit, I WILL pay tax on the benefits when received, in accordance with the federal, state and local income tax laws in effect at that time.
Please sign, date and return this election form either via e-mail or in the enclosed envelope no later than: May 31, 2007.

A change in 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, or significant changes in financial condition, |
| 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 Companys ability to manage costs related to insurance and employee retirement and health care benefits, and |
| global economic factors, including manufacturing activity, air travel trends, currency exchange rates, difficulties entering new markets and general economic conditions such as inflation, interest rates and credit availability. |
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 Annual Report.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Overview
The Company is a leading worldwide diversified manufacturer of motion control products and systems, providing precision engineered solutions for a wide variety of commercial, mobile, industrial and aerospace markets.
The Companys order rates provide a near-term perspective of the Companys outlook particularly when viewed in the context of prior and future order rates. The Company has historically published its order rates on a monthly basis. However, beginning in fiscal 2008, the Company will publish order rates on a quarterly basis in order to more effectively characterize the longer term trends of the Companys markets. 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 from one day to 18 months for aerospace orders. The Company believes the leading economic indicators of these markets that have a strong correlation to the Companys future order rates are as follows:
| Institute of Supply Management (ISM) index of manufacturing activity with respect to North American commercial, mobile and industrial markets, |
| Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) on manufacturing activity with respect to most International commercial, mobile and industrial markets, and |
| Aircraft miles flown and revenue passenger miles for commercial aerospace markets and Department of Defense spending for military aerospace markets. |
An ISM and PMI index above 50 indicates that the manufacturing economy is expanding resulting in the expectation that the Companys order rates in the commercial, mobile and industrial markets should be positive year-over-year. The ISM index at the end of fiscal 2007 was 56.0 and the most recent PMI for the Eurozone countries was 54.1. With respect to the commercial aerospace market, aircraft miles flown and revenue passenger miles in 2007 have shown moderate improvement over comparable fiscal 2006 levels and the Company expects similar improvement in fiscal 2008. The Company anticipates that Department of Defense spending in fiscal 2008 will be about 2 percent higher than the fiscal 2007 level.
The Company also believes that there is a high correlation between interest rates and Industrial manufacturing activity. The Federal Reserve did not change the federal funds rate during fiscal 2007 but did raise the federal funds rate eight times during fiscal 2006. Increases in the federal funds rate typically have a negative impact on industrial production thereby lowering future order rates while decreases in the federal funds rate typically have the opposite effect.
The Companys major opportunities for growth are as follows:
| Leverage the Companys broad product line with customers desiring to consolidate their vendor base and outsource system engineering, |
| Marketing systems solutions for customer applications, |
| Expand the Companys business presence outside of North America, |
| New product introductions, including those resulting from the Companys innovation initiatives, |
| Completing strategic acquisitions in a consolidating motion and control industry, and |
| Expanding the Companys vast distribution network. |
The financial condition of the Company remains strong as evidenced by the continued generation of substantial cash flows from operating activities, which were $955 million or 8.9 percent of sales in fiscal 2007, a debt to debt-equity ratio of 21.4 percent, ample borrowing capabilities and strong short-term credit ratings.
Acquisition opportunities remain available to the Company within its target markets. During fiscal 2007, the Company completed 11 acquisitions whose aggregate incremental annual revenues were approximately $260 million. The Company believes that future financial results will reflect the benefit of a fast and efficient integration of the companies recently acquired. 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 Companys 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. Future business divestitures could have a negative effect on the Companys results of operations.
13 - 2
The Company routinely strives to improve customer service levels and manage changes in raw material prices and expenses related to employee health and welfare benefits. The Company is currently focused on maintaining its financial strength through the current Industrial North American slowdown, especially in the automotive, heavy-duty truck and construction markets. The Company has in place 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 enterprise, product innovation and business realignments.
The discussion below is structured to separately discuss each of the financial statements presented on pages 13-13 to 13-17. All year references are to fiscal years.

Net sales in 2007 were 14.2 percent higher than 2006. The increase in sales in 2007 primarily reflects higher volume experienced across all Segments. Acquisitions completed within the last 12 months contributed about 45 percent of the net sales increase. The effect of currency rate changes increased net sales by approximately $241 million.
Net sales in 2006 were 16.3 percent higher than 2005. The increase in sales in 2006 primarily reflects higher volume experienced across all Segments. Acquisitions completed within the last 12 months contributed about one-half of the net sales increase. The effect of currency rate changes reduced net sales in 2006 by approximately $38 million.
During 2007, the Company experienced strong business conditions in several of the markets of the Industrial International businesses and the Aerospace Segment. Softer business conditions were experienced in a number of markets of the Industrial North America businesses and the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment. For 2008, the Company expects the strong business conditions experienced in the Industrial International businesses and the Aerospace Segment to continue while business conditions in a number of the markets in the Industrial North American operations and Climate & Industrial Controls segment will continue to be soft.
Gross profit margin was higher in 2007 primarily due to a combination of the increase in sales and the effects of the Companys financial performance initiatives, especially in the Industrial International businesses. Current-year acquisitions, not yet fully integrated, negatively affected the current-year gross margin. The higher margins in 2006 were primarily due to a combination of the increase in sales as well as the effects of the Companys financial performance initiatives, especially in the areas of lean manufacturing and strategic procurement.
13 - 3
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 18.3 percent in 2007 primarily due to the higher sales volume as well as higher expenses related to research and development, incentive compensation and professional fees.
Interest expense increased in 2007 primarily due to higher average debt outstanding as well as higher interest rates, primarily on commercial paper borrowings. Interest expense increased in 2006 as a result of higher average debt outstanding resulting from an increase in borrowings used to fund 2006 acquisition activity.
(Gain) loss on disposal of assets includes plant and equipment disposals, divestitures of businesses and miscellaneous asset adjustments.

The amount for divestitures in 2007 primarily relates to the final accounting for a business divested in 2002. The amount for divestitures in 2006 primarily relates to the sale of the Thermoplastics division.
Effective tax rate from continuing operations was lower in 2007 primarily due to a higher amount of research and development tax credits received in 2007 as compared to 2006. The effective tax rate in 2006 was higher primarily due to a lower level of research and development tax credits as compared to 2005, partially offset by the effect of tax planning initiatives. In August 2007, a new German tax rate was enacted. The effect of the new tax rate will be accounted for as a discrete tax item in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 resulting in a tax benefit of approximately $7 million.
Income from continuing operationsIn addition to the individual income statement items discussed above, the Companys qualified defined benefit plans positively affected net income in 2007 by a decrease in expense of approximately $21 million and adversely affected net income in 2006 by an additional expense of approximately $19 million, both primarily due to changes in actuarial assumptions and the amortization of actuarial losses. Net income in 2008 is expected to be positively affected by a decrease in pension expense related to the Companys qualified defined benefit plans of approximately $14 million primarily due to changes in actuarial assumptions and lower expense from the amortization of prior years actuarial losses.
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 Wynns Specialty Chemical business which was divested in December 2004.
Other comprehensive income (loss)Items included in other comprehensive income (loss) are gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are recorded directly into stockholders equity. The following are the Companys items of other comprehensive income (loss):

The change in foreign currency translation in 2007 and 2006 primarily resulted from the weakening of the U.S. dollar against most other currencies. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of the minimum pension liability.
Discussion of Business Segment Information
The Business Segment information presents sales, operating income and assets on a basis that is consistent with the manner in which the Companys various businesses are managed for internal review and decision-making.

Sales in 2007 for the Industrial North American operations were 1.8 percent higher than 2006 following a 13.6 percent increase from 2005 to 2006. Acquisitions accounted for all of the sales increase in 2007. Excluding acquisitions, sales were lower in 2007 as a result of lower end-user demand experienced in several markets, most notably automotive, heavy-duty truck and construction. The sales increase from 2005 to 2006 was primarily due to acquisitions as well as higher end-user demand experienced in virtually all markets, with the largest increases in heavy-duty truck, construction and oil and gas.
Sales in the Industrial International operations increased 34.4 percent in 2007 following an increase of 21.0 percent from 2005 to 2006. The sales increase in 2007 was primarily due to acquisitions, which accounted for about 40 percent of the sales increase, as well as higher volume in Europe, Latin America and the Asia Pacific region. Foreign currency rate changes, primarily the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro, increased net sales in 2007 by $222 million. The increase in sales from 2005 to 2006 was primarily due to acquisitions, which accounted for about 70 percent of the sales increase, as well as higher volume in Europe and the Asia Pacific region.
The lower Industrial North American operating margins in 2007 were primarily due to the lower volume, higher business realignment charges and higher raw material costs more than offsetting margin improvement from lean manufacturing initiatives. The higher Industrial North American operating margins in 2006 were primarily due to the increased sales volume as well as operating efficiencies. Acquisitions, not yet fully integrated, negatively impacted margins in both 2007 and 2006. Included in Industrial North American operating income in 2007, 2006 and 2005 are business realignment charges of $9.8 million, $5.4 million and $3.7 million, respectively. The business realignment charges resulted from actions the Company took to structure the Industrial North American operations to operate in their then current economic environment and primarily consisted of severance costs and costs relating to the consolidation of manufacturing operations.
The Industrial International operating margin improvement in 2007 and 2006 was primarily due to the higher sales volume, especially throughout all businesses in Europe, as well as the effects of the Companys financial performance initiatives. Acquisitions, not fully integrated, negatively impacted margins in 2007 and 2006. Operating income in 2007, 2006 and 2005 included $8.9 million, $10.3 million and $9.9 million, respectively, of business realignment charges that were taken to appropriately structure primarily the European operations.
13 - 5
The Company anticipates Industrial North American sales for 2008 will exceed the 2007 level by about one percent and Industrial International sales for 2008 will exceed the 2007 level by about 9.5 percent. Industrial North American operating margins in 2008 are expected to range from 14.5 percent to 14.9 percent and Industrial International margins are expected to range from 14.0 percent to 14.4 percent. The Company expects to continue to take actions necessary to structure appropriately the Industrial Segment operations to operate in their current economic environment. Such actions may include the necessity to record business realignment charges in 2008.
The increase in total Industrial Segment backlog in 2007 was primarily due to higher order rates in the Industrial International businesses. The increase in backlog in 2006 was primarily due to acquisitions, which contributed about one-half of the increase, as well as higher order rates in both the Industrial North American and Industrial International businesses.
The increase in assets in 2007 and 2006 was primarily due to current-year acquisitions and the effect of currency fluctuations partially offset by a decrease in property, plant and equipment.

Sales in 2007 increased 12.0 percent compared to an increase of 10.7 percent from 2005 to 2006. The increase in sales in both 2007 and 2006 was primarily due to an increase in both commercial original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and aftermarket volume. Sales in 2006 also benefited from higher military market volume.
The higher margins in 2007 were primarily due to the increased volume, with a higher concentration of sales occurring in the aftermarket businesses. Operating margin in 2006 remained at the 2005 level primarily due to a higher concentration of 2006 sales occurring in the commercial and military OEM businesses as well as higher engineering costs incurred in 2006 for new programs.
Shipments in 2007 were about the same as order rates resulting in a slight change in backlog from 2006. The increase in backlog in 2006 was primarily due to higher order rates experienced in both the commercial and military businesses. For 2008, sales are expected to remain at or be slightly higher than in 2007 and operating margins are expected to range from 15.7 percent to 16.1 percent. Heavier concentration of commercial OEM volume in future product mix could result in lower margins.
The increase in assets in 2007 and 2006 was primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and inventory. A portion of the increase in assets in 2006 was also attributable to an acquisition.

Sales in 2007 increased 8.4 percent compared to a 24.0 percent increase in sales from 2005 to 2006. The increase in sales in 2007 was primarily due to acquisitions, which accounted for almost 70 percent of the increase. The increase in sales in 2006 was primarily due to acquisitions, which accounted for about one-half of the sales increase, as well as higher end-user demand in the residential air conditioning market, which was driven by energy efficiency legislation. The lower margins in 2007 were primarily due to product mix, increased raw material costs as well as costs incurred to integrate recent acquisitions. The lower margins in 2006 were primarily due to manufacturing inefficiencies related to plant relocations and integration costs related to acquisitions. Operating income in 2006 included $3.6 million of business realignment charges.
The Company anticipates sales in 2008 to remain at or be slightly higher than in 2007 and operating margins in 2008 to be in a range of 7.8 percent to 8.2 percent.
The increase in assets in 2007 and 2006 was primarily due to acquisitions and an increase in inventory partially offset by a decline in property, plant and equipment. The increase in 2006 was also due to an increase in accounts receivable.
Corporate assets decreased 64.7 percent in 2007 and 42.2 percent in 2006. The fluctuation in 2007 is primarily due to a decrease in prepaid pension cost resulting from the adoption of a new accounting pronouncement and a decrease in cash. The fluctuation in 2006 is primarily due to a decrease in cash partially offset by an increase in investments and a decrease in inventory reserves.

Accounts receivable are primarily receivables due from customers for sales of product ($1,560.2 million at June 30, 2007 and $1,475.9 million at June 30, 2006). The current-year increase in accounts receivable is primarily due to acquisitions as well as a higher level of sales experienced in the latter part of the current fiscal year as compared to fiscal 2006. Days sales outstanding relating to trade receivables for the Company decreased to 49 days in 2007 from 51 days in 2006.
Inventories increased primarily due to acquisitions. Days supply of inventory on hand increased to 62 days in 2007 from 60 days in 2006.
Plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, increased in 2007 primarily due to plant and equipment acquired in current-year acquisitions partially offset by depreciation expense exceeding capital expenditures.
Goodwill increased primarily as a result of current-year acquisitions.
Intangible assets, net consist primarily of patents, trademarks and customer lists. Intangible assets, net increased primarily due to current-year acquisitions.
Investments and other assets decreased due to the effect of the adoption of FASB Statement No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans as discussed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounts payable, trade increased slightly due to acquisitions.

Accrued payrolls and other compensation increased to $376.7 million from $297.0 million primarily due to higher incentive compensation accruals and acquisitions.
Accrued domestic and foreign taxes increased to $152.7 million in 2007 from $140.4 million in 2006 primarily due to higher taxable income in 2007.
Pensions and other postretirement benefits decreased $457.1 million in 2007. The change in this amount is explained further in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Net deferred income taxes increased $34 million over the prior year and are discussed further in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash Flows From Operating ActivitiesCash provided by operating activities in 2007 was comparable to the prior year. The current-year increase in net income was primarily offset by cash used to fund the Companys qualified defined benefit plans. Cash flow from working capital items decreased in 2007 primarily due to an increase in cash flow used by inventories, accounts payable, trade and accrued domestic and foreign taxes offset by a decrease in cash flow used by accounts receivable and an increase in cash flow provided by accrued payrolls and other compensation.
Cash Flows Used In Investing ActivitiesThe decrease in the amount of cash used in investing activities in 2007 is primarily due to a decrease in acquisition activity partially offset by the absence of proceeds from the sale of businesses. Refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of net assets of acquired companies at their respective acquisition dates.
Cash Flows From Financing ActivitiesThe increase in cash used in financing activities from the prior year is due to common share activity which used cash of $364.3 million in 2007 compared to providing cash of $16.9 million in 2006. Common share activity primarily involves the exercise of stock options and the repurchase of shares of the Companys common stock for treasury. The change in common share activity in 2007 is primarily due to a higher level of repurchases of the Companys common stock for treasury during 2007 as compared to 2006. In August 2007, the Company entered into an accelerated stock repurchase agreement. See Notes 8 and 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Dividends have been paid for 228 consecutive quarters, including a yearly increase in dividends for the last 51 fiscal years. The current expected annual dividend rate, before giving effect to the stock split authorized in August 2007, is $1.26 per share.

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

The Company has the availability to issue securities under its universal shelf registration statement. Securities that may be issued under this shelf registration statement include debt securities, common stock, serial preferred stock, depositary shares, warrants, stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units.
As of June 30, 2007, the Company has a line of credit totaling $1,025 million through a multi-currency revolving credit agreement with a group of banks. 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 October 2011, 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 Companys commercial paper note program, which is rated A-1 by Standard & Poors, P-1 by Moodys and F-1 by Fitch, Inc. These ratings are considered investment grade. The revolving credit agreement contains provisions that increase the facility fee of the credit agreement in the event the Companys credit ratings are lowered. A lowering of the Companys credit ratings would not limit the Companys ability to use the credit agreement nor would it accelerate the repayment of any outstanding borrowings.
The Company seeks to minimize its total cost of borrowing and therefore uses its commercial paper note program as its primary source of working capital liquidity. The primary alternative source of borrowing for working capital liquidity is the committed line of credit, which typically bears a higher cost of borrowing.
The Companys credit agreements and indentures governing certain debt agreements contain various covenants, the violation of which would limit or preclude the use of the credit agreements for future borrowings, or might accelerate the maturity of the related outstanding borrowings covered by the indentures. At the Companys 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 June 30, 2007, 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 credit agreements and indentures.
Based upon the Companys past performance and current expectations, management believes the cash flows generated from future operating activities should provide adequate funds to support internal growth and continued improvements in the Companys manufacturing facilities and equipment. The Companys worldwide financial capabilities may be used to support planned growth, dividend payments and share repurchases, as needed. The Company regularly considers acquisition opportunities and additional borrowings may be used to finance acquisitions completed in 2008.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company enters into forward exchange contracts and costless collar contracts to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in related foreign currencies. The total carrying amount and fair value of open contracts and any risk to the Company as a result of these arrangements is not material to the Companys financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
The Companys debt portfolio contains variable rate debt, inherently exposing the Company to interest rate risk. The Companys 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. A 100 basis point increase in near-term interest rates would increase annual interest expense on variable rate debt existing at June 30, 2007 by approximately $2.1 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not have off-balance sheet arrangements.
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 policies discussed below are considered by management to be more critical than other policies because their application places the most significant demands on managements judgment.
Revenue RecognitionSubstantially all of the Industrial Segment and Climate & Industrial Controls Segment revenues are recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership and title to the product have transferred to the customer. This generally takes place at the time the product is shipped. The Aerospace Segment uses the percentage of completion, units of delivery method to recognize a portion of its revenue. The percentage of completion method requires the use of estimates of costs to complete long-term contracts and for some contracts includes estimating costs related to aftermarket orders. The estimation of these costs requires substantial judgment on the part of management due to the duration of the contracts as well as the technical nature of the products involved. Adjustments to estimated costs are made on a consistent basis and a contract reserve is established when the costs to complete a contract exceed the contract revenues.
Impairment of Goodwill and Long-lived AssetsGoodwill is tested for impairment, at the reporting unit level, on an annual basis and between annual tests whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit may exceed its fair value. A discounted cash flow model is used to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. This model requires the use of long-term planning forecasts and assumptions regarding industry specific economic conditions that are outside the control of the Company. Long-lived assets held for use are evaluated for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the undiscounted net cash flows to be generated by their use and eventual disposition is less than their carrying value. The long-term nature of these assets requires the estimation of its cash inflows and outflows several years into the future and only takes into consideration technological advances known at the time of the impairment test.
InventoriesInventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the last-in, first-out basis for a majority of U.S. inventories and on the first-in, first-out basis for the balance of the Companys inventories. Inventories have been reduced by an allowance for obsolete inventories. The estimated allowance is based on managements review of inventories on hand compared to estimated future usage and sales. Changes in the allowance have not had a material effect on the Companys results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
13 - 10
Pensions and Postretirement Benefits Other Than PensionsThe annual net periodic expense and benefit obligations related to the Companys defined benefit plans are determined on an actuarial basis. This determination requires critical assumptions regarding the discount rate, long-term return on plan assets, increases in compensation levels, amortization periods for actuarial gains and losses and health care cost trends. Assumptions are determined based on Company data and appropriate market indicators, and are evaluated each year as of the plans measurement date. Changes in the assumptions to reflect actual experience as well as the amortization of actuarial gains and losses could result in a material change in the annual net periodic expense and benefit obligations reported in the financial statements. For the Companys domestic defined benefit plans, a one-half percentage point change in the assumed long-term rate of return on plan assets is estimated to have an $8 million effect on pension expense and a one-half percentage point decrease in the discount rate is estimated to increase pension expense by $14 million. As of June 30, 2007, $267.6 million of past years net actuarial losses related to the Companys domestic qualified defined benefit plans have yet to be amortized. These losses will generally be amortized over approximately 11 years and will negatively affect earnings in the future. Actuarial gains experienced in future years will help reduce the effect of the actuarial loss amortization.
Further information on pensions and postretirement benefits other than pensions is provided in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Stock-Based CompensationThe 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 Companys stock, the expected life of the stock award and the Companys 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 materially from historical data. However, changes in the assumptions to reflect future 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 and may result in a material change to the fair value calculation of stock-based awards.
Other Loss ReservesThe Company has a number of loss exposures incurred in the ordinary course of business such as environmental claims, product liability, litigation, recoverability of deferred income tax benefits and accounts receivable reserves. Establishing loss reserves for these matters requires managements estimate and judgment with regards to risk exposure and ultimate liability or realization. These loss reserves are reviewed periodically and adjustments are made to reflect the most recent facts and circumstances.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes An Interpretation of FASB Statement 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company has not yet finalized the effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations of complying with the provisions of FIN 48 but does not anticipate the effect to be material.
In August 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. Statement No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Statement No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet determined the effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations of complying with the provisions of Statement No. 157.
In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Statement No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet determined whether it will elect to measure any of its financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value as permitted by Statement No. 159.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
1. Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are summarized below.
Nature of OperationsThe 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 evaluates performance based on segment operating income before Corporate general and administrative expenses, Interest expense and Income taxes.
The Company operates in three business segments: Industrial, Aerospace and Climate & Industrial Controls. The Industrial Segment is an aggregation of several business units, which manufacture motion-control and fluid power system components for builders and users of various types of manufacturing, packaging, processing, transportation, agricultural, construction, and military vehicles and equipment. Industrial Segment products are marketed primarily through field sales employees and independent distributors. The North American Industrial business represents the largest portion of the Companys manufacturing plants and distribution networks and primarily services North America. The International Industrial operations provide Parker products and services to countries throughout Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America.
The Aerospace Segment produces hydraulic, fuel and pneumatic systems and components, which are utilized on virtually every domestic commercial, military and general aviation aircraft and also performs a vital role in naval vessels and land-based weapons systems. This Segment serves original equipment and maintenance, repair and overhaul customers worldwide. Aerospace Segment products are marketed by field sales employees and are sold directly to manufacturers and end users.
The Climate & Industrial Controls Segment manufactures motion-control systems and components for use primarily in the refrigeration and air conditioning and transportation industries. The products in the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment are marketed primarily through field sales employees and independent distributors.
See the table of Business Segment Information By Industry and By Geographic Area on pages 13-14 and 13-15 for further disclosure of business segment information.
There are no individual customers to whom sales are three percent or more of the Companys consolidated sales. Due to the diverse group of customers throughout the world the Company does not consider itself exposed to any concentration of credit risks.
The Company manufactures and markets its products throughout the world. Although certain risks and uncertainties exist, the diversity and breadth of the Companys products and geographic operations mitigate significantly the risk that adverse changes would materially affect the Companys operating results.
Use of EstimatesThe 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basis of ConsolidationThe consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and profits have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The Company does not have off-balance sheet arrangements. Within the Business Segment Information, intersegment and interarea sales are recorded at fair market value and are immaterial in amount.
Revenue RecognitionRevenue is recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership and title to the product have transferred to the customer. The Companys revenue recognition policies are in compliance with the SECs Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in Net sales and the related costs in Cost of sales.
CashCash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid investments, with a three-month or less maturity, carried at cost plus accrued interest, which are readily convertible into cash.
InventoriesInventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The majority of domestic inventories are valued by the last-in, first-out method and the balance of the Companys inventories are valued by the first-in, first-out method.
13 - 18
Long-term ContractsThe Company enters into long-term contracts for the production of aerospace products. For financial statement purposes, revenues are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method. The extent of progress toward completion is measured using the units-of-delivery method. Unbilled costs on these contracts are included in inventory. Progress payments are netted against the inventory balances. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined.
Plant, Equipment and DepreciationPlant and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated principally using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Depreciation rates are based on estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 40 years for buildings, 15 years for land improvements and building equipment, seven to 10 years for machinery and equipment, and three to five years for vehicles and office equipment. Improvements, which extend the useful life of property, are capitalized, and maintenance and repairs are expensed. When property is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the appropriate accounts and any gain or loss is included in current income.
Investments and Other AssetsInvestments in joint-venture companies in which ownership is 50% or less and in which the Company does not have operating control are stated at cost plus the Companys equity in undistributed earnings. These investments and the related earnings are not material to the consolidated financial statements. During 2005 the Company recorded a charge of $8,766 ($.05 per share) related to a real estate investment. Investments and other assets include a prepaid pension cost at June 30, 2006 of $344,987 and an intangible asset recognized in connection with an additional minimum pension liability of $86,071 at June 30, 2006.
GoodwillThe Company conducts a formal impairment test of goodwill on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value.
Intangible AssetsIntangible assets primarily include patents, trademarks and customer lists and are recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line method. Patents are amortized over their remaining legal life. Trademarks are amortized over the estimated time period over which an economic benefit is expected to be received. Customer lists are amortized over a period based on historical customer attrition rates.
Income TaxesIncome taxes are provided based upon income for financial reporting purposes. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences in the recognition of income and expense for tax purposes. Tax credits and similar tax incentives are applied to reduce the provision for income taxes in the year in which the credits arise.
Product WarrantyIn the ordinary course of business the Company warrants its products against defect in design, materials and workmanship over various time periods. The warranty accrual at June 30, 2007 and 2006 is immaterial to the financial position of the Company and the change in the accrual during 2007, 2006 and 2005 was immaterial to the Companys results of operations and cash flows.
Foreign Currency TranslationAssets and liabilities of most foreign subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates, and income and expenses are translated using weighted average exchange rates. The effects of these translation adjustments, as well as gains and losses from certain intercompany transactions, are reported in the Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) component of Shareholders equity. Such adjustments will affect Net income only upon sale or liquidation of the underlying foreign investments, which is not contemplated at this time. Exchange gains and losses from transactions in a currency other than the local currency of the entity involved, and translation adjustments in countries with highly inflationary economies, are included in Net income.
Financial InstrumentsThe Companys financial instruments consist primarily of investments in cash, cash equivalents and long-term investments as well as obligations under notes payable and long-term debt. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying values for Cash and cash equivalents, Investments and other assets and Notes payable approximate fair value. See Note 9 for fair value of long-term debt.
The Company enters into forward exchange contracts (forward 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.
Gains or losses on forward contracts that hedge specific transactions are recognized in Net income, offsetting the underlying foreign currency gains or losses. Gains or losses on costless collar contracts are recognized in Net income when the spot rate of the contract falls outside the collar range.
13 - 19
In addition, the Companys 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 amount and fair value of open forward exchange and costless collar contracts and any risk to the Company as a result of the arrangements described above is not material.
Stock AwardsOn 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. Prior to the adoption of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), the Company used the intrinsic-value based method to account for stock awards and made no charges against earnings with respect to awards granted. 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 stock awards using the non-substantive vesting period approach:

Recent Accounting PronouncementsIn September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans. Statement No. 158 amends FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132R. Statement No. 158 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. Statement No. 158 also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial condition. The measurement date provision of Statement No. 158 is effective for the Company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009. The funded status recognition provision was adopted by the Company as of June 30, 2007 and had the following effects on the individual line items on the Consolidated Balance Sheet:

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes An Interpretation of FASB Statement 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that a company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company has not yet finalized the effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations of complying with the provisions of FIN 48 but does not anticipate the effect to be material.
In August 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. Statement No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Statement No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet determined the effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations of complying with the provisions of Statement No. 157.
In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Statement No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet determined whether it will elect to measure any of its financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value as permitted by Statement No. 159.
Reclassifications and RevisionsCertain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation.

3. Charges Related to Business Realignment
In 2007, the Company recorded a $19,402 charge ($11,977 after-tax or $.09 per share) for the costs to structure its businesses in light of current and anticipated customer demand. The Company believes the realignment actions taken will 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 735 employees in the Industrial Segment, 25 employees in the Aerospace Segment and 15 employees in the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment as well as costs related to the consolidation of manufacturing product lines. A portion of the severance costs have been paid with the remaining payments expected to be made by June 30, 2008. Of the pre-tax amount, $18,688 relates to the Industrial Segment, $384 relates to the Aerospace Segment and $330 relates to the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment. The business realignment costs are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Income for 2007 in the following captions: $15,016 in Cost of sales and $4,386 in Selling, general and administrative expenses.
In 2006, the Company recorded a $19,367 charge ($12,042 after-tax or $.10 per share) for the costs to structure its businesses in light of current and anticipated customer demand. The Company believes the realignment actions taken will 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 690 employees in the Industrial Segment, 5 employees in the Aerospace Segment and 340 employees in the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment. All required severance payments have been made. Of the pre-tax amount, $15,673 relates to the Industrial Segment, $73 relates to the Aerospace Segment and $3,621 relates to the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment. The business realignment costs are presented primarily in the Cost of sales caption in the Consolidated Statement of Income for 2006. In 2006, the Company recorded a $4,793 charge resulting from the pending sale of plant and equipment at facilities that have been closed. This charge is presented in the (Gain) loss on disposal of assets caption in the Consolidated Statement of Income for 2006.
In 2005, the Company recorded a $14,263 charge ($8,900 after-tax or $.08 per share) for the costs to structure its businesses in light of current and anticipated customer demand. The Company believes the realignment actions taken will 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 600 employees in the Industrial Segment. All required severance payments have been made. The business realignment costs are presented primarily in the Cost of sales caption in the Consolidated Statement of Income for 2005. A significant portion of the 2005 charge relates to the closure of a manufacturing facility in Hilden, Germany. The facility was acquired as part of the Denison International acquisition. The decision to close the facility resulted from the completion of the Companys acquisition integration analysis.

At June 30, 2007, the Company has recorded deferred tax assets of $42,299 resulting from $131,781 in loss carryforwards. A valuation allowance has been established due to the uncertainty of realizing certain operating and merger loss carryforwards, a foreign capital loss carryforward, and certain deferred tax assets associated with other liabilities and reserves. The foreign capital loss carryforward and some of the operating and merger loss carryforwards can be carried forward indefinitely; others can be carried forward from one to 19 years. The increase in the valuation allowance in 2007 was primarily due to an increase in operating and merger losses in certain foreign jurisdictions and a foreign capital loss.
Provision has not been made for additional U.S. or foreign taxes on undistributed earnings of certain international operations as those earnings will continue to be reinvested. It is not practicable to estimate the additional taxes, including applicable foreign withholding taxes, that might be payable on the eventual remittance of such earnings.
Accumulated undistributed earnings of foreign operations reinvested in their operations amounted to $948,867, $670,672 and $546,740, at June 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
5. Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share have been computed according to FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the year. Common share equivalents represent the dilutive effect of outstanding stock-based awards. The computation of income from continuing operations per share was as follows:

For 2007, 2006 and 2005, 1.7 million, 1.9 million, and 0.2 million common shares, respectively, subject to stock-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.
13 - 25
6. Inventories
Inventories valued on the last-in, first-out cost method were approximately 31% and 34%, respectively, of total inventories in 2007 and 2006. The current cost of these inventories exceeds their valuation determined on the LIFO basis by $209,923 in 2007 and $193,270 in 2006. Progress payments of $25,874 in 2007 and $20,743 in 2006 are netted against inventories.
7. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The Company conducts an annual impairment test as required by FASB Statement No. 142. The Company uses a discounted cash flow analysis for purposes of estimating the fair value of a reporting unit. The annual impairment tests performed in 2007, 2006, and 2005 resulted in no impairment loss being recognized.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the year ended June 30, 2007 are as follows:

8. Financing Arrangements
The Company has a line of credit totaling $1,025,000 through a multi-currency revolving credit agreement with a group of banks, of which $896,200 was available at June 30, 2007. 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 of $1,250,000. The credit agreement expires October 2011, however, the Company has the right to request a one-year extension of the expiration date on an annual basis. A portion of the credit agreement supports the Companys commercial paper note program, which is rated A-1 by Standard & Poors, P-1 by Moodys and F-1 by Fitch, Inc. These ratings are considered investment grade. The interest on borrowings is based upon the terms of each specific borrowing and is subject to market conditions. The revolving credit agreement requires a facility fee of up to 5/100ths of one percent of the commitment per annum at the Companys present rating level. The revolving credit agreement contains provisions that increase the facility fee of the credit agreement in the event the Companys credit ratings are lowered. A lowering of the Companys credit ratings would not limit the Companys ability to use the credit agreement nor would it accelerate the repayment of any outstanding borrowings.
The Companys revolving credit agreement and indentures governing certain debt agreements contain various covenants, the violation of which would limit or preclude the use of the agreement for future borrowings, or might accelerate the maturity of the related outstanding borrowings covered by the indentures. At the Companys present rating level, the most restrictive covenant provides that the ratio of secured debt to net tangible assets be less than 10 percent. As of June 30, 2007, the ratio of secured debt to net tangible assets was less than one percent. The Company is in compliance with all covenants.
Notes payable is comprised of short-term lines of credit and borrowings from foreign banks. At June 30, 2007, the Company had $357,333 in lines of credit from various foreign banks, of which $348,201 was available. Most of these agreements are renewed annually. The balance and weighted average interest rate of the Notes payable at June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $136,365 and 5.4% and $6,056 and 5.2%, respectively.
The Company is authorized to sell up to $1,025,000 of short-term commercial paper notes, rated A-1 by Standard & Poors, P-1 by Moodys and F-1 by Fitch, Inc. At June 30, 2007 and 2006, there were no commercial paper notes outstanding. In connection with an accelerated stock repurchase agreement, the Company borrowed $500 million through the issuance of commercial paper notes in August 2007.

During 2007, the Company entered into a five-year Japanese Yen (JPY) 6 billion credit facility. The credit facility bears interest of LIBOR plus 20 basis points and any borrowings are due to be repaid in March 2012. The Company borrowed the full JPY 6 billion and used the funds to reduce the level of the Companys commercial paper borrowings.
Principal amounts of Long-term debt payable in the five years ending June 30, 2008 through 2012 are $59,019, $13,034, $46,675, $370,967 and $48,900, respectively. The carrying value of the Companys Long-term debt (excluding leases) was $1,147,064 and $1,123,234 at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and was estimated to have a fair value of $1,086,766 and $1,060,512, at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The fair value of the Long-term debt was estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Companys current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements. At the Companys present rating level, some of the debt agreements include a limitation on the Companys ratio of secured debt to net tangible assets.
ESOP Loan GuaranteeIn 1999 the Companys Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) was leveraged when the ESOP Trust borrowed $112,000 and used the proceeds to purchase 3,055,413 shares of the Companys common stock from the Companys treasury. The loan is unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and therefore the unpaid balance of the borrowing is reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as Long-term debt. A corresponding amount representing Unearned compensation is recorded as a deduction from Shareholders equity.
Lease CommitmentsFuture minimum rental commitments as of June 30, 2007, under noncancelable operating leases, which expire at various dates, are as follows: 2008- $64,385; 2009- $46,048; 2010- $29,685; 2011- $18,204; 2012- $12,323 and after 2012- $51,377.
Rental expense in 2007, 2006 and 2005 was $86,999, $76,828 and $64,521, respectively.

10. Retirement Benefits
PensionsThe Company has noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering eligible employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. Plans for most salaried employees provide pay-related benefits based on years of service. Plans for hourly employees generally provide benefits based on flat-dollar amounts and years of service. The Company uses a June 30 measurement date for a majority of its pension plans. The Company also has contractual arrangements with certain key employees which provide for supplemental retirement benefits. In general, the Companys policy is to fund these plans based on legal requirements, tax considerations, local practices and investment opportunities. The Company also sponsors defined contribution plans and participates in government-sponsored programs in certain foreign countries.
Prior to the adoption of FASB Statement No. 158, accounting rules required that the Company recognize a liability if the accumulated benefit obligation exceeded the fair value of plan assets. The net of tax effect of recording the minimum pension liability on shareholders equity was an increase of $221,546 and $167,008 in 2007 and 2006, respectively and a decrease of $154,377 in 2005.

The presentation of the amounts recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and in Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) is before the effect of income taxes.
The estimated amount of net actuarial loss, prior service cost and transition asset that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) into net periodic benefit pension cost in 2008 is $35,887, $12,501 and $66, respectively
The accumulated benefit obligation for all defined benefit plans was $2,463,208 and $2,389,579 at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation, and fair value of plan assets for pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $834,143, $760,428 and $589,471, respectively, at June 30, 2007, and $2,612,299, $2,348,100 and $1,998,469, respectively, at June 30, 2006.
The Company expects to contribute approximately $36 million to its defined benefit pension plans in 2008. Estimated future benefit payments in the five years ending June 30, 2008 through 2012 are $117,250, $119,919, $126,579, $135,586 and $143,932, respectively and $850,652 in the aggregate for the five years ending June 30, 2013 through June 30, 2017.

The discount rate assumption is based on current rates of high-quality long-term corporate bonds over the same estimated time period that benefit payments will be required to be made. The expected return on plan assets assumption is based on the weighted-average expected return of the various asset classes in the plans portfolio. The asset class return is developed using historical asset return performance as well as current market conditions such as inflation, interest rates and equity market performance.
The weighted-average allocation of the majority of the assets related to defined benefit plans is as follows:
2007 | 2006 | |||||
Equity securities |
66 | % | 66 | % | ||
Debt securities |
28 | % | 31 | % | ||
Other |
6 | % | 3 | % | ||
100 | % | 100 | % | |||
The investment strategy for the defined benefit pension plan assets focuses on achieving prudent actuarial funding ratios while maintaining acceptable levels of risk. This strategy requires an investment portfolio that is broadly diversified across various asset classes and investment managers. The current weighted-average target asset allocation is 62% equity securities, 33% debt securities and 5% other. At June 30, 2007 and 2006, the plans assets included Company stock with market values of $117,395 and $93,043, respectively.
Employee Savings PlanThe Company sponsors an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) as part of its existing savings and investment 401(k) plan. The ESOP is available to eligible domestic employees. Parker Hannifin common stock is used to match contributions made by employees to the ESOP up to a maximum of 4.0 percent of an employees annual compensation. A breakdown of shares held by the ESOP is as follows:
2007 | 2006 | 2005 | |||||||
Allocated shares |

Fair value of suspense shares |
$ | 40,577 | $ | 54,638 | $ | 62,284 | |||
In 1999, the ESOP was leveraged and the loan was unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. The Companys matching contribution and dividends on the shares held by the ESOP are used to repay the loan, and shares are released from the suspense account as the principal and interest are paid. The unreleased portion of the shares in the ESOP suspense account is not considered outstanding for purposes of earnings per share computations. Company contributions to the ESOP, recorded as compensation and interest expense, were $51,647 in 2007, $47,533 in 2006 and $40,396 in 2005. Dividends earned by the suspense shares and interest income within the ESOP totaled $1,031 in 2007, $1,017 in 2006 and $962 in 2005.
13- 31
The Company has a retirement income account (RIA) within the employee savings plan. The RIA replaces the defined benefit pension plan for employees hired after April 1, 2004 at locations that previously offered a salary-based formula under the pension plan. Existing employees at April 1, 2004 who were already under the salary-based formula in the pension plan were given the choice to stay in the defined benefit pension plan or participate in the RIA. The Company makes a contribution to the participants RIA account each year, the amount of which is based on the participants age and years of service. Participants do not contribute to the RIA. Company contributions to the RIA were $9,145 in 2007, $6,479 in 2006 and $2,258 in 2005.
In addition to shares within the ESOP, as of June 30, 2007 employees have elected to invest in 1,942,756 shares of common stock within the Company Stock Fund of the Parker Retirement Savings Plan.
Other Postretirement BenefitsThe Company provides postretirement medical and life insurance benefits to certain retirees and eligible dependents. Most plans are contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted annually. The plans are unfunded and pay stated percentages of covered medically necessary expenses incurred by retirees, after subtracting payments by Medicare or other providers and after stated deductibles have been met. For most plans, the Company has established cost maximums to more effectively control future medical costs. The Company has reserved the right to change or eliminate these benefit plans.
Certain employees are covered under benefit provisions that include prescription drug coverage for Medicare eligible retirees. The impact of the subsidy received under the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 on the Companys other postretirement benefits was immaterial.

OtherThe Company has established nonqualified deferred compensation programs, which permit officers, directors and certain management employees annually to elect to defer a portion of their compensation, on a pre-tax basis, until their retirement. The retirement benefit to be provided is based on the amount of compensation deferred, Company match, and earnings on the deferrals. Deferred compensation expense was $34,284, $18,965 and $13,622 in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
The Company has invested in corporate-owned life insurance policies to assist in meeting the obligation under these programs. The policies are held in a rabbi trust and are recorded as assets of the Company.

Share RepurchasesThe Company is authorized to repurchase an amount of common shares each fiscal year equal to the greater of 5 million shares or five percent of the shares outstanding as of the end of the prior fiscal year. The Company repurchased 5,449,327 shares at an average price of $79.47 per share during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. Repurchases are funded primarily from operating cash flows, and the shares are initially held as treasury stock. In August 2007, the Companys Board of Directors authorized the accelerated purchase of $500 million of the Companys common shares. This authorization is in addition to the Companys previously announced share repurchase program. The Company has entered into an agreement with Morgan Stanley whereby the Company will purchase an initial number of common shares in exchange for $500 million. Morgan Stanley will purchase an equivalent number of the Companys common shares in the open market over a period of up to four months, and at the end of that period, additional shares may be delivered to the Company based on the volume-weighted average price of the Companys common shares during the same period, subject to a cap and a floor as determined according to the terms of agreement.
12. Stock Incentive Plans
Stock-Based AwardsThe Companys stock incentive plans provide for the granting of nonqualified options and stock appreciation rights (SARs) to officers and key employees of the Company. The nonqualified options allow the recipient to purchase shares of common stock at a price not less than 100 percent of the fair market value of the stock on the date the stock-based awards are granted. Outstanding options and SARs are exercisable primarily from two to three years after the date of grant and expire no more than ten years after grant. The Company satisfies stock option and SAR exercises by issuing common shares out of treasury, which have been repurchased pursuant to the Companys share repurchase program described in Note 11, or through the issuance of previously unissued common shares.

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. Prior to the adoption of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), the Company used the intrinsic-value based method to account for stock-based awards and made no charges against earnings with respect to awards granted as the grant price equaled the market price of the underlying common shares on the date of grant.
During 2007 and 2006, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $33,203 ($21,280 after-tax or $.18 per basic and diluted share) and $33,448 ($21,766 after-tax or $.18 per basic and diluted share), respectively.
The Company derives a tax deduction measured by the excess of the market value over the grant price at the date stock-based awards are exercised. The related tax benefit is credited to Additional capital as the Company is currently in a windfall tax benefit position.
The fair values for the significant stock-based awards granted in 2007, 2006 and 2005 were estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Weighted average fair value |
$ | 23.24 | $ | 21.29 | $ | 14.97 | ||||||
The expected life of the award was derived by referring to actual exercise experience. The expected volatility of stock was derived by referring to changes in the Companys historical common stock prices over a timeframe similar to the expected life of the award. The Company has no reason to believe that future stock volatility is likely to materially differ from historical volatility.

Restricted StockRestricted stock was issued under the Companys 2003 Stock Incentive Program to certain key employees under the Companys 2004-05-06, 2003-04-05 and 2002-03-04 Long Term Incentive Plans (LTIP). Value of the payments was set at the market value of the Companys common stock on the date of issuance. Shares were earned and awarded, and an estimated value was accrued, based upon attainment of criteria specified in the LTIP over the cumulative years of each 3-year Plan. Plan participants are entitled to cash dividends and to vote their respective shares, but the shares are restricted as to transferability for three years following issuance.

Under the Companys 2005-06-07 LTIP a payout of shares of restricted stock from the Companys 2003 Stock Incentive Program will be issued to certain key employees in 2008. The balance of the 2005-06-07 LTIP payout will be made as deferred cash compensation (if elected by the participant) or in cash. The total payout, valued at $28,425, has been accrued over the three years of the plan.
In 2007, 9,000 shares of restricted stock were issued to certain non-employee members of the Board of Directors. These shares are restricted to transferability for three years following issuance. In addition, non-employee members of the Board of Directors have been given the opportunity to receive all or a portion of their fees in the form of restricted stock. These shares vest ratably, on an annual basis, over the term of office of the director. In 2007, 2006 and 2005, 9,663, 6,778 and 3,132 shares, respectively, were issued in lieu of directors fees. During 2006, 2,442 shares of the restricted stock were surrendered upon the death of a director.
At June 30, 2007, the Company had 14,496,162 common shares reserved for issuance in connection with its stock incentive plans.

13. Shareholders Protection Rights Agreement
On January 25, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a dividend of one Shareholders Right for each common share outstanding on February 17, 2007 in relation to the Companys Shareholders Protection Rights Agreement. As of June 30, 2007, 116,159,220 common shares were reserved for issuance under this Agreement. Under certain conditions involving acquisition of, or an offer for, 15 percent or more of the Companys common shares, all holders of Shareholders Rights would be entitled to purchase one common share at an exercise price currently set at $240. In addition, in certain circumstances, all holders of Shareholders Rights (other than the acquiring entity) would be entitled to purchase a number of common shares equal to twice the exercise price, or at the option of the Board, to exchange each Shareholders Right for one common share. The Shareholders Rights remain in existence until February 17, 2017, unless extended by the Board of Directors or earlier redeemed (at one cent per Shareholders Right), exercised or exchanged under the terms of the agreement. In the event of an unfriendly business combination attempt, the Shareholders Rights will cause substantial dilution to the person attempting the business combination. The Shareholders Rights should not interfere with any merger or other business combination that is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders since the Shareholders Rights may be redeemed.
14. Research and Development
Research and development costs amounted to $253,091 in 2007, $203,702 in 2006 and $164,229 in 2005. These amounts include both costs incurred by the Company related to independent research and development initiatives as well as costs incurred in connection with research and development contracts. Costs incurred in connection with research and development contracts amounted to $40,894 in 2007, $37,532 in 2006 and $34,757 in 2005. These costs are included in the total research and development cost for each of the respective years.
15. Contingencies
The Company is involved in various litigation arising in the normal course of business, including proceedings based on product liability claims, workers compensation claims and alleged violations of various environmental laws. The Company is self-insured in the United States for health care, workers compensation, general liability and product liability up to predetermined amounts, above which third party insurance applies. Management regularly reviews the probable outcome of these proceedings, the expenses expected to be incurred, the availability and limits of the insurance coverage, and the established accruals for liabilities. While the outcome of pending proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that any liabilities that may result from these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.
On April 27, 2007, a grand jury in the Southern District of Florida issued a subpoena to the Companys subsidiary, Parker ITR. The subpoena requires the production of documents, in particular documents related to communications with competitors and customers related to Parker ITRs marine oil and gas hose business. The Company is responding to this subpoena. On May 7, 2007, the Japan Fair Trade Commission (JFTC) requested that Parker ITR appoint an agent related to an investigation of marine hose suppliers. Parker ITR appointed such an agent by power of attorney. Parker ITR has also been required to submit a report to the JFTC on specific topics. The Company and Parker ITR continue to cooperate with the JFTC. On May 15, 2007, the European Commission issued a Request for Information to the Company and its subsidiary, Parker ITR. After the Company and Parker ITR filed a response, the European Commission requested additional information. The Company and Parker ITR continue to cooperate with the European Commission. In addition, there are currently four class action lawsuits pending in the Southern District of Florida and one in the Southern District of New York alleging that the Company, Parker ITR and a number of other defendants engaged in violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Act. The class action complaints allege that Parker ITR and other defendants, for a period of at least eight years, conspired with competitors in unreasonable restraint of trade to artificially raise, fix, maintain or stabilize prices, rig bids and allocate markets and customers for marine oil and gas hose in the United States. In three cases, a summons has been issued for Parker ITR, but service has not yet been effected. The Company, which is only named in one case in the Southern District of Florida, was served on July 13, 2007 and had filed its answer denying the allegations. At the current stage of the investigations and lawsuits, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the potential loss or range of loss, if any, arising from such investigations and lawsuits.

EnvironmentalThe Company is currently responsible for environmental remediation at 34 manufacturing facilities presently or formerly operated by the Company and has been named as a potentially responsible party, along with other companies, at one off-site waste disposal facility and three regional sites.
As of June 30, 2007, the Company has a reserve of $17,833 for environmental matters, which are probable and reasonably estimable. This reserve is recorded based upon the best estimate of costs to be incurred in light of the progress made in determining the magnitude of remediation costs, the timing and extent of remedial actions required by governmental authorities and the amount of the Companys liability in proportion to other responsible parties. This reserve is net of $2,555 for discounting, primarily at a 4.5 percent discount rate, a portion of the costs at 32 locations to operate and maintain remediation treatment systems as well as gauge treatment system effectiveness through monitoring and sampling over periods up to 30 years.
The Companys estimated total liability for the above mentioned sites ranges from a minimum of $17,833 to a maximum of $73,148. The largest range for any one site is approximately $7.9 million. The actual costs to be incurred by the Company will be dependent on final determination of remedial action required, negotiations with federal and state agencies, changes in regulatory requirements and technology innovation, the effectiveness of remedial technologies employed, the ability of other responsible parties to pay, and any insurance or third party recoveries.
16. Stock Split
On August 16, 2007, the Companys Board of Directors authorized a 3-shares-for-2 split of the Companys common shares, payable on October 1, 2007 to shareholders of record as of September 17, 2007. The share numbers and per share amounts disclosed in the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements have not been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the stock split.
