SPX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited; in millions, except per share data)

 

(1)          BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules and regulations, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) can be condensed or omitted. In our opinion, the financial statements include the adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary for their fair presentation and represent our accounts after the elimination of intercompany transactions.

 

Investments in unconsolidated companies where we exercise significant influence but do not have control are accounted for using the equity method. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), we perform a qualitative analysis that considers the design of the VIE, the nature of our involvement and the variable interests held by other parties to determine which party has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We do have interests in VIEs, primarily joint ventures, in which we are the primary beneficiary and others in which we are not. All our VIEs are considered immaterial, individually and in the aggregate, to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Our only significant investment reported under the equity method is our 44.5% interest in the EGS Electrical Group, LLC and Subsidiaries (“EGS”) joint venture, which we account for on a three-month lag. EGS’s revenues and our equity earnings from our investment in EGS, as included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, totaled $119.0 and $8.5 and $111.9 and $8.3 for the three months ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010, respectively.

 

Preparing financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The unaudited information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of expected results for a full year. We have reclassified certain prior year amounts related to discontinued operations to conform to the current year presentation. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts provided in these Notes pertain to continuing operations (see Note 3 for information on discontinued operations).

 

We establish actual interim closing dates using a “fiscal” calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on the Saturday closest to the end of the calendar quarter for the first quarter, with the second and third quarters being 91 days in length. Our fourth quarter ends on December 31. The interim closing dates for the first, second and third quarters of 2011 are April 2, July 2 and October 1, compared to April 3, July 3 and October 2 for 2010, respectively. This practice only impacts the quarterly reporting periods and not the annual reporting period. We had one fewer day in the first quarter of 2011 and will have one more day in the fourth quarter of 2011 than in the respective 2010 periods.

 

(2)           NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

The following is a summary of new accounting pronouncements that apply or may apply to our business.

 

In September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance with the objective of amending revenue recognition for arrangements with multiple deliverables. The guidance eliminates one previous revenue recognition criterion so that objective and reliable evidence of fair value for undelivered item(s), in a multiple element deliverable arrangement in which the delivered item or items are considered a separate unit or units, is no longer required. The guidance also determines a hierarchy for an entity to use when estimating the selling price of deliverables that meet the other two conditions for separation as follows: (1) vendor-specific objective evidence of the selling price, (2) third-party evidence of the selling price, or (3) an estimate of the selling price. In addition, the term “selling price” replaces all references to fair value in the guidance. The guidance also has eliminated the residual allocation method and requires an entity to apply the relative selling price allocation method in all circumstances where there is an absence of objective and reliable evidence for the delivered item(s) in an arrangement. Lastly, the guidance requires enhanced disclosures about the judgments and assumptions used in evaluating arrangements. Entities may elect to apply this guidance (1) prospectively to new or materially modified arrangements after the effective date or (2) retrospectively for all periods presented. The guidance is effective for

 

5



 

fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2011 with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In September 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to guidance related to revenue recognition for certain revenue arrangements that include software elements. The amendment was to the scope of prior guidance, such that all tangible products containing both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality will no longer be within the scope of the Software Revenue Recognition Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”). That is, the entire product (including the software deliverables and non-software deliverables) would be outside the scope of revenue recognition guidance specific to software and would be accounted for under other accounting literature. Lastly, the guidance requires enhanced disclosures about the judgments and assumptions used in evaluating arrangements. Entities may elect to apply this guidance (1) prospectively to new or materially modified arrangements after the effective date or (2) retrospectively for all periods presented. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2011 with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2010, the FASB issued guidance to modify the goodwill impairment test by eliminating an entity’s ability to assert that a reporting unit is not required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if the carrying amount of the reporting unit is zero or negative, despite the existence of qualitative factors that indicate that the goodwill is more likely than not impaired. For such reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance, which require that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between interim or 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 amount. The guidance is effective for the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2010. We adopted the guidance on January 1, 2011 with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2010, the FASB issued guidance to clarify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements for business combinations that are material on an individual or aggregate basis, the entity should disclose revenues and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. Additionally, the guidance expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring, adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The guidance is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. We adopted the guidance on January 1, 2011 with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements; however, the guidance will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements for material acquisitions consummated after January 1, 2011.

 

(3)           ACQUISITIONS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

Acquisitions

 

In March 2011, in the Test and Measurement segment, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Teradyne Inc.’s Diagnostic Solutions business (“DS”), a leading global supplier of diagnostic solutions for transportation OEMs and automotive dealerships, for a purchase price of $39.1. DS had revenues of approximately $42.0 in the twelve months prior to the date of acquisition.

 

In March 2011, in the Flow Technology segment, we completed the acquisition of B.W. Murdoch Ltd (“Murdoch”), a leading engineering company supplying processing solutions for the food and beverage industry, for a purchase price of $7.4. Murdoch had revenues of approximately $13.0 in the twelve months prior to the date of acquisition.

 

In July 2010, in the Flow Technology segment, we completed the acquisition of the Anhydro business (“Anhydro”), a global supplier of liquid concentration equipment, powder processing solutions, and dewatering plants and equipment, for a purchase price of $59.1, net of cash acquired of $10.9. Anhydro had revenues of approximately $71.0 in the twelve months prior to the date of acquisition.

 

In April 2010, in the Industrial Products and Services segment, we completed the acquisition of Torque Tension Systems Ltd. (“TTS”), a leading global supplier of hydraulic torque wrench and tensioner tool products, for a purchase price of $15.7, net of cash acquired of $2.4. TTS had revenues of approximately $9.0 in the twelve months prior to the date of acquisition.

 

6



 

In February 2010, in the Flow Technology segment, we completed the acquisition of Gerstenberg Schröder A/S (“Gerstenberg”), a leading designer, manufacturer, installer and servicer of processing systems and components serving the global food industry, for a purchase price of $30.9, net of cash acquired of $3.5 and including debt assumed of $3.9. Gerstenberg had revenues of approximately $57.0 in the twelve months prior to the date of acquisition.

 

The pro forma effects of these acquisitions were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to our results of operations.

 

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at preliminary estimates of fair values as determined by management, based on information available at the acquisition date and on current assumptions as to future operations, and are subject to change during the measurement period upon the completion of acquisition accounting, including the finalization of asset valuations and any working capital settlements.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

As part of our operating strategy, we regularly review and negotiate potential divestitures, some of which are or may be material. As a result of this continuous review, we determined that certain of our businesses would be better strategic fits with other companies or investors.

 

We report businesses or asset groups as discontinued operations when, among other things, we commit to a plan to divest the business or asset group, actively begin marketing the business or asset group, and when the sale of the business or asset group is deemed probable within the next twelve months. The following businesses, which have been sold, met these requirements and therefore have been reported as discontinued operations for the periods presented.

Cooling Spain — Sold for cash consideration of one Euro (exclusive of cash transferred with the business of $2.3), resulting in a loss, net of taxes, of $1.9 during the fourth quarter of 2010. During the first quarter of 2011, we recorded a net charge of $0.1 to “Gain (loss) on disposition of discontinued operations, net of taxes” within our condensed consolidated statements of operations in connection with adjustments to certain liabilities that we retained.

 

PSD — Sold for cash consideration of $3.0, resulting in a gain, net of taxes, of $3.6 during the first quarter of 2010.

 

In addition to the businesses discussed above, we recognized a net loss of $1.8 during the first quarter of 2011 resulting from adjustments to gains/(losses) on sales from previously discontinued businesses. Refer to the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the disclosure of all discontinued businesses during 2008 through 2010.

 

The final sales price for certain of the divested businesses is subject to adjustment based on working capital existing at the respective closing dates. The working capital figures are subject to agreement with the buyers or, if we cannot come to agreement, an arbitration process. Final agreement of the working capital figures for certain of these transactions has yet to occur. In addition, changes in estimates associated with liabilities retained in connection with a business divestiture (e.g., income taxes) may occur. It is possible that the sales price and resulting gains/losses on these, and other previous divestitures, may be materially adjusted in subsequent periods.

We are a global provider of flow technology, test and measurement products and services, thermal equipment and services and industrial products and services with operations in over 35 countries. We offer a diverse collection of products, which include, but are not limited to, valves, fluid handling equipment, metering and mixing solutions, specialty service tools, diagnostic systems, service equipment and technical information services, cooling, heating and ventilation products, power transformers, and TV and radio broadcast antennas. Our products are used by a broad array of customers in various industries, including power generation, chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, infrastructure, mineral processing, petrochemical, automotive service, telecommunications and transportation.

 

We aggregate our operating segments into four reportable segments: Flow Technology, Test and Measurement, Thermal Equipment and Services and Industrial Products and Services. The factors considered in determining our aggregated segments are the economic similarity of the businesses, the nature of products sold or services provided, production processes, types of customers and distribution methods. In determining our segments, we apply the threshold criteria of the Segment Reporting Topic of the Codification to operating income or loss of each segment before considering impairment and special charges, pensions and postretirement expense, stock-based compensation and other indirect corporate expenses. This is consistent with the way our chief operating decision maker evaluates the results of each segment.

At April 2, 2011, the net carrying value of intangible assets with determinable lives consisted of $174.1 in the Flow Technology segment, $77.5 in the Test and Measurement segment, $62.6 in the Thermal Equipment and Services segment, and $12.1 in the Industrial Products and Services segment. Trademarks with indefinite lives consisted of $213.8 in the Flow Technology segment, $54.8 in the Test and Measurement segment, $138.5 in the Thermal Equipment and Services segment, and $15.0 in the Industrial Products and Services segment.

 

We annually test the recoverability of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets during the fourth quarter based on a measurement date as of the end of the third quarter and continually monitor impairment indicators across all our reporting units. Any significant change in market conditions and estimates or judgments used to determine expected future cash flows that indicate a reduction in carrying value may give rise to impairment in the period that the change becomes known.

During the first three months of 2011, we made contributions of approximately $6.7 to our foreign and qualified domestic pension plans, of which $0.6 related to businesses classified as discontinued operations.

 

An increase in the number of inactive participants in one of our domestic pension plans resulted in almost all of the plan participants being inactive. Accordingly, in 2011 we began amortizing the unrecognized gains/losses over the average remaining life expectancy of the inactive participants as opposed to the average remaining service period of the active participants. This change resulted in a reduction to pension expense of approximately $5.0 during the first quarter of 2011.

(5)                      “Other” includes foreign currency translation on any debt instruments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

 

Credit Facilities

 

We have senior credit facilities with a syndicate of lenders that provide for committed senior secured financing in the aggregate amount of $1,550.0 consisting of the following:

 

·                  A domestic revolving credit facility, available for loans and letters of credit, in an aggregate principal amount up to $400.0 with a final maturity of September 2012;

 

·                  A global revolving credit facility, available for loans in Euros, British Pounds and other currencies in an aggregate principal amount up to the equivalent of $200.0 with a final maturity of September 2012; and

 

·                  A foreign credit instrument facility, available for performance letters of credit and guarantees, in an aggregate principal amount in various currencies up to the equivalent of $950.0 with a final maturity of September 2012.

 

Our senior credit facilities require that we maintain a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (generally defined as the ratio of consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four fiscal quarters ended on such date to consolidated interest expense for such period) as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of at least 3.50 to 1.00, and a Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of no more than 3.25 to 1.00. Our senior credit facilities also contain covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, make investments, loans, guarantees or advances, make restricted junior payments, including dividends, redemptions of capital stock and voluntary prepayments or repurchases of certain other indebtedness, engage in mergers, acquisitions or sales of assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions or engage in certain transactions with affiliates and otherwise restrict certain corporate activities. We do not expect these covenants to restrict our liquidity, financial condition or access to capital resources in the foreseeable future. Lastly, our senior credit facilities contain customary representations, warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default.

 

14



 

We are permitted under our senior credit facilities to repurchase our capital stock and pay cash dividends in an unlimited amount if our gross Consolidated Leverage Ratio is less than 2.50 to 1.00. If our gross Consolidated Leverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00, the aggregate amount of such repurchases and dividend declarations cannot exceed (A) $100.0 in any fiscal year plus (B) an additional amount for all such repurchases and dividend declarations made after September 21, 2007 equal to the sum of (i) $300.0 and (ii) a positive amount equal to 50% of cumulative consolidated net income during the period from July 1, 2007 to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial information is available preceding the date of such repurchase or dividend declaration (or, in case such consolidated net income is a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit).

 

The weighted-average interest rate of our outstanding borrowings under our senior credit facilities was approximately 2.15% for the three months ended April 2, 2011.

 

At April 2, 2011, we had $91.3 and $768.7 of outstanding letters of credit issued under our revolving credit and our foreign trade facilities of our senior credit agreement, respectively. In addition, we had $2.9 of letters of credit outstanding under separate arrangements in China and South Africa.

 

At April 2, 2011, we were in compliance with all covenant provisions of our senior credit facilities, and the senior credit facilities did not impose any restrictions on our ability to repurchase shares or pay dividends, other than those inherent in the credit agreement. In addition, we were in compliance with all covenant provisions of our senior notes as of April 2, 2011.

 

(11)                          DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Interest Rate Swaps

 

Prior to the August 2010 repayment of our variable rate term loan, we maintained interest rate protection agreements (“Swaps”) to hedge the associated interest rate risk. These Swaps, which we designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges, effectively converted the majority of the borrowings under our variable rate term loan to a fixed rate of 4.795% plus the applicable margin. In connection with the repayment of our term loan, we terminated all our Swaps.

 

Currency Forward Contracts

 

We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our objective is to preserve the economic value of non-functional currency denominated cash flows and to minimize their impact. Our principal currency exposures relate to the Euro, Chinese Yuan, South African Rand and British Pound.

 

From time to time, we enter into currency protection agreements (“FX forward contracts”) to manage the exposure on contracts with forecasted transactions denominated in non-functional currencies and to manage the risk of transaction gains and losses associated with assets/liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of certain subsidiaries. In addition, some of our contracts contain currency forward embedded derivatives (“FX embedded derivatives”), as the currency of exchange is not “clearly and closely” related to the functional currency of either party to the transaction. Certain of our FX forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges, as deemed appropriate. To the extent these derivatives are effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the derivatives’ fair value are not included in current earnings, but are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCI”). These changes in fair value will subsequently be reclassified into earnings as a component of revenues or cost of products sold, as applicable, when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings. In addition, if the forecasted transaction is no longer probable the cumulative change in the derivatives’ fair value will be recorded as a component of other income (expense), net in the period it occurs. To the extent that a previously designated hedging transaction is no longer an effective hedge, any ineffectiveness measured in the hedging relationship is recorded in earnings in the period it occurs. We had FX forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $193.7 and $199.5 outstanding as of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. We had FX embedded derivatives with an aggregate notional amount outstanding of $185.2 and $200.9 at April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The unrealized loss, net of taxes, recorded in AOCI related to FX embedded derivatives and FX forward contracts was $4.1 as of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010. We anticipate reclassifying approximately $1.0 of the unrealized loss to income over the next 12 months.

Commodity Contracts

 

From time to time, we enter into commodity contracts to manage the exposure on forecasted purchases of commodity raw materials (“commodity contracts”). At April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the outstanding notional amount of commodity contracts was 1.6 million and 1.8 million pounds of copper, respectively. We designate and account for these contracts as cash flow hedges and, to the extent these commodity contracts are effective in offsetting the variability of the forecasted purchases, the change in fair value is included in AOCI. We reclassify the AOCI associated with our commodity contracts to cost of products sold when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings. As of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair values of these contracts were $0.3 and $1.0, respectively, recorded as a current asset. The unrealized gain, net of taxes, recorded in AOCI was $0.4 and $0.8 as of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. We anticipate reclassifying the unrealized gain to income over the next 12 months.

The following table sets forth the number of weighted-average shares outstanding used in the computation of basic and diluted income per share:

49.921

 

 

The total number of stock options that were not included in the computation of diluted income per share because their exercise price was greater than the average market price of common shares was 0.112 and 0.443 for the three months ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010, respectively. For the three months ended April 2, 2011, no unvested restricted stock units were excluded from the computation of diluted income per share, compared to 0.104 for the three months ended April 3, 2010, because required market thresholds for vesting (as discussed below) were not met.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

Under the 2002 Stock Compensation Plan, as amended in 2006, the successor plan to the 1992 Stock Compensation Plan, up to 20.0 shares of our common stock may be granted to key employees and 4.548 of these shares were available for grant at April 2, 2011. The 2002 Stock Compensation Plan permits the issuance of new shares or shares from treasury upon the exercise of options, vesting of restricted stock units or granting of restricted stock.

 

During the three months ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010, we classified excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation of $6.2 and $2.6, respectively, as financing cash flows and included such amounts in “Minimum withholdings paid on behalf of employees for net share settlements, net of proceeds from exercise of employee stock options and other” within our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

 

Restricted stock or restricted stock units may be granted to certain eligible employees or non-employee directors in accordance with applicable equity compensation plan documents and agreements. Subject to participants’ continued employment and other plan terms and conditions, the restrictions lapse and awards generally vest over three years. Market (“company performance”) thresholds have been instituted for vesting of substantially all restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards. This vesting is based on SPX shareholder return versus the S&P 500 composite index. On each vesting date, we compare the SPX shareholder return to the performance of the S&P 500 composite index for the prior year and for the cumulative period since the date of the grant. If SPX outperforms the S&P 500 composite index for the prior year, the one-third portion of the grant associated with that year will vest. If SPX outperforms the S&P composite index for the cumulative period, any unvested portion of the grant that was subject to vesting on or prior to the vesting date will vest. Restricted stock and restricted stock units that do not vest within the three-year vesting period are forfeited.

 

17



 

 

We grant restricted stock to non-employee directors under the 2006 Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Incentive Plan (the “Directors’ Plan”). Under the Directors’ Plan, up to 0.100 shares of our common stock may be granted to non-employee directors and 0.027 of these shares were available for grant at April 2, 2011. Restricted stock grants have a three-year vesting period based on SPX shareholder return versus the S&P 500 composite index, which are subject to the same company performance thresholds for employee awards described in the preceding paragraph. Restricted stock that does not vest within the three-year vesting period in accordance with these performance requirements is forfeited.

 

Stock options may be granted to key employees in the form of incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options, generally vest ratably over three years, which vesting may be subject to performance criteria, and expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant. The option price per share may be no less than the fair market value of our common stock at the close of business day prior to the date of grant. Upon exercise, the employee has the option to surrender previously owned shares at current value in payment of the exercise price and/or for withholding tax obligations, and, subject to certain restrictions, may receive a reload option having an exercise price equal to the current market value for the number of shares so surrendered. The reload option expires at the same time that the exercised option would have expired. Any future issuances of options under the plan will not have a reload feature, pursuant to the terms of the plan. We have not granted options to any of our employees since 2004.

 

The recognition of compensation expense for share-based awards, including stock options, is based on their grant date fair values. The fair value of each award is amortized over the lesser of the award’s requisite or derived service period, which is generally up to three years. Compensation expense related to restricted stock and restricted stock units totaled $19.7 and $11.9 for the three months ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010, respectively.

 

We use the Monte Carlo simulation model valuation technique to determine fair value of our restricted stock and restricted stock units as they contain a “market condition.” The Monte Carlo simulation model utilizes multiple input variables that determine the probability of satisfying the market condition stipulated in the award and calculates the fair value of each restricted stock and restricted stock unit award. We used the following assumptions in determining the fair value of the awards granted on March 1, 2011 and March 1, 2010:

Annual expected stock price volatility is based on the three-year historical volatility. The annual expected dividend yield is based on annual expected dividend payments and the stock price on the date of grant. The average risk-free interest rate is based on the one-year through three-year daily treasury yield curve rate as of the grant date.

Aggregate intrinsic value (market value of stock less the option exercise price) represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value, based on our closing stock price on April 2, 2011, which would have been received by the option holders had all in-the-money option holders exercised their options as of that date. The aggregate intrinsic value of the options outstanding and exercisable at April 2, 2011 was $9.7. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during the first three months of 2011 was $1.8, while the related amount for the first three months of 2010 was $0.4.

(13)                      CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER MATTERS

 

General

 

Numerous claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including those relating to litigation matters (e.g., class actions, derivative lawsuits and contracts, intellectual property and competitive claims), environmental matters, and risk management matters (e.g., product and general liability, automobile, and workers’ compensation claims), have been filed or are pending against us and certain of our subsidiaries. Additionally, we may become subject to significant claims, of which we are currently unaware, or the claims of which we are aware may result in us incurring a significantly greater liability than we anticipate. This may also be true in connection with past or future acquisitions. While we maintain property, cargo, auto, product, general liability, environmental, and directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and have acquired rights under similar policies in connection with acquisitions that we believe cover a portion of these claims, this insurance may be insufficient or unavailable (e.g., because of insurer insolvency) to protect us against potential loss exposures. In addition, we have increased our self-insurance limits over the past several years. While we believe we are entitled to indemnification from third parties for some of these claims, these rights may be insufficient or unavailable to protect us against potential loss exposures. However, we believe that our accruals related to these items are

 

20



 

sufficient and that these items and our rights to available insurance and indemnity will be resolved without material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These accruals totaled $431.9 (including $367.3 for risk management matters) and $436.2 (including $366.1 for risk management matters) at April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Of these amounts, $362.0 and $368.0 were included in “Other long-term liabilities” within our condensed consolidated balance sheets at April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, with the remainder included in “Accrued expenses.”

 

We had insurance recovery assets related to risk management matters of $319.9 and $320.0 at April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, included in “Other assets” within our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Litigation Matters

 

We are subject to litigation matters that arise in the normal course of business. In our opinion, these matters are either without merit or of a kind that should not have a material adverse effect individually or in the aggregate on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, we cannot assure that these proceedings or claims will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Environmental Matters

 

Our operations and properties are subject to federal, state, local and foreign regulatory requirements relating to environmental protection. It is our policy to comply fully with all applicable requirements. As part of our effort to comply, we have a comprehensive environmental compliance program that includes environmental audits conducted by internal and external independent professionals, as well as regular communications with our operating units regarding environmental compliance requirements and anticipated regulations. Based on current information, we believe that our operations are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations, and we are not aware of any violations that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. We have liabilities for site investigation and/or remediation at 93 sites that we own or control. In addition, while we believe that we maintain adequate accruals to cover the costs of site investigation and/or remediation, we cannot provide assurance that new matters, developments, laws and regulations, or stricter interpretations of existing laws and regulations will not materially affect our business or operations in the future.

 

Our environmental accruals cover anticipated costs, including investigation, remediation, and operation and maintenance of clean-up sites. Our estimates are based primarily on investigations and remediation plans established by independent consultants, regulatory agencies and potentially responsible third parties. Accordingly, our estimates may change based on future developments, including new or changes in existing environmental laws or policies, differences in costs required to complete anticipated actions from estimates provided, future findings of investigation or remediation actions, or alteration to the expected remediation plans. It is our policy to realize a change in estimate once it becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. We do not discount our environmental accruals and do not reduce them by anticipated insurance recoveries. We do take into account third-party indemnification from financially viable parties in determining our accruals where there is no dispute regarding the right to indemnification.

 

In the case of contamination at offsite, third-party disposal sites, we have been notified that we are potentially responsible and have received other notices of potential liability pursuant to various environmental laws at 27 sites at which the liability has not been settled, and only 10 of which have been active in the past few years. These laws may impose liability on certain persons that are considered jointly and severally liable for the costs of investigation and remediation of hazardous substances present at these sites, regardless of fault or legality of the original disposal. These persons include the present or former owners or operators of the site and companies that generated, disposed of or arranged for the disposal of hazardous substances at the site. We are considered a “de minimis” potentially responsible party at most of the sites, and we estimate that the aggregate probable remaining liability at these sites is immaterial.

 

We conduct extensive environmental due diligence with respect to potential acquisitions, including environmental site assessments and such further testing as we may deem warranted. If an environmental matter is identified, we estimate the cost and either establish a liability, purchase insurance or obtain an indemnity from a financially sound seller. However, in connection with our acquisitions or dispositions, we may assume or retain significant environmental liabilities, some of which we may be unaware. The potential costs related to these environmental matters and the possible impact on future operations are uncertain due in part to the complexity of government laws and regulations and their interpretations, the varying costs and effectiveness of various clean-up technologies, the uncertain level of insurance or other types of recovery, and the questionable level of our responsibility. We record a liability when it is both probable and the amount can be

 

21



 

reasonably estimated. Due to the uncertainties previously described, we are unable to reasonably estimate the amount of possible additional losses associated with the resolution of these matters beyond what has been recorded.

 

In our opinion, after considering accruals established for such purposes, remedial actions for compliance with the present laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment are not expected to have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Risk Management Matters

 

We are self-insured for certain of our workers’ compensation, automobile, product and general liability, disability and health costs, and we believe that we maintain adequate accruals to cover our retained liability. Our accruals for risk management matters are determined by us, are based on claims filed and estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported, and generally are not discounted. We consider a number of factors, including third-party actuarial valuations, when making these determinations. We maintain third-party stop-loss insurance policies to cover certain liability costs in excess of predetermined retained amounts. This insurance may be insufficient or unavailable (e.g., because of insurer insolvency) to protect us against loss exposure.

 

Collaborative Arrangements

 

Collaborative arrangements are defined as a contractual arrangement in which the parties are (1) active participants to the arrangements and (2) exposed to significant risks and rewards that depend on the commercial success of the endeavor. Costs incurred and revenues generated from transactions with third parties are required to be reported by the collaborators on the appropriate line item in their respective income statements. Refer to our disclosure on consortium arrangements below.

 

We enter into consortium arrangements for certain projects within our Thermal Equipment and Services segment. Under such arrangements, each consortium member is responsible for performing certain discrete items of work within the total scope of the contracted work and the consortium expires when all contractual obligations are completed. The revenues for these discrete items of work are defined in the contract with the project owner and each consortium member bearing the profitability risk associated with its own work. Our consortium arrangements typically provide that each consortium member assumes its responsible share of any damages or losses associated with the project; however, the use of a consortium arrangement typically results in joint and several liability for the consortium members. If responsibility cannot be determined or a consortium member defaults, then the consortium members are responsible according to their share of the contract value. Within our consolidated financial statements, we account for our share of the revenues and profits under the consortium arrangements. As of April 2, 2011, our share of the aggregate contract value on open consortium arrangements was $412.3 (of which approximately 48.4% had been recognized as revenue), and the aggregate contract value on open consortium arrangements was $1,022.2. As of December 31, 2010, our share of the aggregate contract value on open consortium arrangements was $381.4 (of which approximately 45.1% had been recognized as revenue), and the aggregate contract value on open consortium arrangements was $948.7. At April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we recorded liabilities of $3.4 and $3.2, respectively, representing the estimated fair value of our potential obligation under the joint and several liability provisions associated with the consortium arrangements.

 

U.S. Health Care Reform Legislation

 

In the first quarter of 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (the “PPAC Act”) was enacted. As discussed in Note 14, the PPAC Act eliminated a portion of the federal income tax deduction available to companies that provide prescription drug benefits to retirees under Medicare Part D. We currently are evaluating other prospective effects of the PPAC Act and the related effects on our business.

 

(14)                      INCOME TAXES

 

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

 

As of April 2, 2011, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $98.0 (net unrecognized tax benefits of $79.5), of which $77.5, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate from continuing operations.

 

We classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of our income tax provision. As of April 2, 2011, gross accrued interest excluded from the amounts above totaled $16.1 (net accrued interest of $11.8). There were no significant penalties recorded during the three months ended April 2, 2011 or April 3, 2010.

 

22



 

Based on the outcome of certain examinations or as a result of the expiration of statute of limitations for certain jurisdictions, we believe that within the next 12 months it is reasonably possible that our previously unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by approximately $30.0 to $35.0. The previously unrecognized tax benefits relate to a variety of tax issues including the ability to claim certain foreign tax credits, deductibility of interest expense in certain jurisdictions, and tax matters relating to prior acquisitions or dispositions.

 

Uncertain Tax Positions

 

We perform reviews of our income tax positions on a continuous basis and accrue for potential uncertain positions when we determine that an uncertain position meets the criteria of the Income Taxes Topic of the Codification. Accruals for these uncertain tax positions are recorded in “Income taxes payable” and “Deferred and other income taxes” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the expectation as to the timing of when the matters will be resolved. As events change and resolution occurs, these accruals are adjusted, such as in the case of audit settlements with taxing authorities.

 

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended April 3, 2010 was impacted unfavorably by a domestic charge of $6.2 associated with the taxation of prescription drug costs for retirees under Medicare Part D as a result of the first quarter 2010 enactment of the PPAC Act. This charge was offset partially by net discrete tax benefits of $5.4 associated with the resolution of certain domestic and foreign tax positions.

 

The IRS currently is performing an audit of our 2008 and 2009 federal income tax returns. At this stage, the outcome of the audit is uncertain; however, we believe that any contingencies are adequately provided for. We do not expect to conclude this examination within the next twelve months.

 

During 2010, the IRS completed the field examination of our 2006 and 2007 federal income tax returns and issued a Revenue Agent’s report. We disagreed with and have protested certain adjustments to the Appeals Office of the IRS. While the resolution of these adjustments may result in tax liabilities that may differ from the accruals established, we believe that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. It is reasonably possible that these matters will be resolved within the next twelve months.

 

State income tax returns generally are subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing the respective tax returns. The impact on such tax returns of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states. We have various state income tax returns in the process of examination, administrative appeals or litigation. We believe that any uncertain tax positions related to these examinations have been adequately provided for.

 

We have various foreign income tax returns under examination. Significant jurisdictions with tax examinations underway include: Canada for the 2000 to 2006 tax returns, Germany for the 2002 to 2009 tax returns, and United Kingdom for the 2008 tax return. We believe that any uncertain tax positions related to these examinations have been adequately provided for.

 

An unfavorable resolution on one or more of the above matters could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows in the quarter and year in which an adjustment is recorded or the tax is due or paid. As audits and examinations are still in process or we have not yet reached the final stages of the appeals process for the above matters, the timing of the ultimate resolution and any payments that may be required for the above matters cannot be determined at this time.

 

Upon the conclusion of our disposition activities discussed in Note 3 to these condensed consolidated financial statements, we may recognize an additional income tax provision or benefit, generally as part of discontinued operations.

(15)         FAIR VALUE

 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets or liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information that is consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

 

·              Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

 

·              Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

 

·              Level 3 — Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

 

The following section describes the valuation methodologies we use to measure different financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Our financial derivative assets and liabilities include FX forward contracts, FX embedded derivatives and commodity contracts, which are valued using valuation models that measure fair value using observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and our counterparties’ credit risks. Based on these inputs, the derivative assets and liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. We have not made any adjustments to the inputs obtained from the independent sources. Based on our continued ability to enter into forward contracts, we consider the markets for our fair value instruments to be active. We primarily use the income approach, which uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount.

 

As of April 2, 2011, there has been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative liabilities due to our own credit risk as the related instruments are collateralized under our senior credit facilities. Similarly, there has been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative assets based on our evaluation of our counterparties’ credit risk.

 

Investments in Equity Securities

 

Our available-for-sale securities include equity investments that are traded in active international markets. They are measured at fair value using closing stock prices from active markets and are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.

 

Certain of our investments in equity securities that are not readily marketable are accounted for under the fair value option, with such values determined by multidimensional pricing models. These models consider market activity based on modeling of securities with similar credit quality, duration, yield and structure. A variety of inputs are used, including benchmark yields, reported trades, non-binding broker/dealer quotes, issuer spread and reference data including market research publications. Market indicators, industry and economic events are also considered. We have not made any adjustments to the inputs obtained from the independent sources. At April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, these assets had a fair value of $8.2 and $8.5, respectively, which were estimated using various valuation models, including the Monte-Carlo simulation model.

During the three months ended April 3, 2010, we recorded impairment charges of $2.0 to “Special charges, net” related to idle facilities and certain machinery and equipment (See Note 5). The fair values of these assets totaled $2.9 at April 3, 2010 and were based on the estimated selling prices. We determined the estimated selling prices by obtaining information in the specific markets being evaluated, including comparable sales of similar assets and assumptions about demand in the market for these assets (unobservable inputs - Level 3).

 

The carrying amount of cash and equivalents and receivables reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

 

The fair value of our debt instruments, based on borrowing rates available to us at April 2, 2011 for similar debt, was $1,315.5 at April 2, 2011, compared to our carrying value of $1,221.9.

ITEM 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(in millions, except per share data)

 

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

 

During the first quarter of 2011, we continued to see signs of improvement in our operating results as two of our segments, Flow Technology and Test and Measurement, experienced double-digit, year-over-year increases in organic revenues and increases in profitability of 36.6% and 46.3%, respectively. Our Thermal Equipment and Services and Industrial Products and Services segments had year-over-year declines in organic revenues and profitability, primarily as a result of volume declines in China and shipment timing and lower pricing on power transformers, respectively. On a consolidated basis, organic revenues increased 5.8% during the first quarter of 2011 (as compared to the first quarter of 2010), while segment income increased $8.0, or 7.5%.

 

During the remainder of 2011, we expect growth trends for our Flow Technology and Test and Measurement segments generally to continue, while we expect more favorable revenue trends within our Thermal Equipment and Services and Industrial Products and Services segments.

 

Similar to prior years, we had negative operating cash flows during the first quarter of 2011 (first quarter 2011 — ($35.4) vs. first quarter 2010 — ($25.2)), primarily as a result of investments in working capital in anticipation of volume increases during the remainder of the year.

 

Other matters of note, including items that impacted our first quarter 2011 financial performance, were as follows:

 

·      Acquisitions:

 

·      In the Flow Technology segment, we completed the acquisition of B.W. Murdoch Ltd (“Murdoch”), a leading engineering company supplying processing solutions for the food and beverage industry, for a purchase price of $7.4.

·      In the Test and Measurement segment, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Teradyne, Inc.’s Diagnostic Solutions business (“DS”), a leading global supplier of diagnostic solutions for transportation OEMs and automotive dealerships, for a purchase price of $39.1.

 

·      During the first quarter of 2011, we recorded an insurance recovery of $6.3, within our Industrial Products and Services segment, related to a product liability matter that was settled in 2007.

 

·      For one of our domestic pension plans, we began amortizing (in the first quarter of 2011) the unrecognized gains (losses) over the average remaining life expectancy of the inactive participants as opposed to the average remaining service period of the active participants, as almost all of the plan participants have become inactive. This change resulted in reduced pension expense of approximately $5.0 in the first quarter.

 

·      In the first quarter of 2011, we redeemed our outstanding 7.50% senior notes, resulting in a principal payment of $28.2.

 

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

 

The unaudited information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. We establish actual interim closing dates using a “fiscal” calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on the Saturday closest to the end of the calendar quarter for the first quarter, with the second and third quarters being 91 days in length. Our fourth quarter ends on December 31. The interim closing dates for the first, second and third quarters of 2011 are April 2, July 2 and October 1, compared to April 3, July 3 and October 2 for 2010, respectively. This practice only impacts the quarterly reporting periods and not the annual reporting period. We had one fewer day in the first quarter of 2011 and will have one more day in the fourth quarter of 2011 than in the respective 2010 periods.

 

Seasonality and Competition — Many of our businesses closely follow changes in the industries and end markets that they serve. In addition, certain businesses have seasonal fluctuations. Our heating and ventilation products businesses tend to be stronger during the third and fourth quarters, as customer buying habits are driven largely by seasonal weather patterns. Demand for cooling towers and related services is highly correlated to contract timing on large construction

 

26



 

contracts, which may cause significant fluctuations from period to period. Revenues for our Service Solutions business typically follow program launch timing for diagnostic systems and service equipment. In aggregate, our businesses tend to be stronger in the second half of the year.

 

Although our businesses operate in highly competitive markets, our competitive position cannot be determined accurately in the aggregate or by segment since our competitors do not offer all the same product lines or serve all of the same markets. In addition, specific reliable comparative figures are not available for many of our competitors. In most product groups, competition comes from numerous concerns, both large and small. The principal methods of competition are service, product performance, technical innovations and price. These methods vary with the type of product sold. We believe we can compete effectively on the basis of each of these factors as they apply to the various products and services we offer.

 

Non-GAAP Measures — Organic revenue growth (decline) presented herein is defined as revenue growth (decline) excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations, acquisitions and divestitures. We believe that this metric is a useful financial measure for investors in evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, as when read in conjunction with our revenues, it presents a useful tool to evaluate our ongoing operations and provides investors with a tool they can use to evaluate our management of assets held from period to period. In addition, organic revenue growth (decline) is one of the factors we use in internal evaluations of the overall performance of our business. This metric, however, is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and should not be considered a substitute for revenue growth (decline) as determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

 

The following table provides selected financial information for the three months ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010, respectively, including the reconciliation of organic revenue growth to net revenue growth, as defined herein:

Revenues — For the three months ended April 2, 2011, the increase in revenues compared to the respective 2010 period was due to organic revenue growth, incremental revenues of $32.2 associated with the acquisitions of the Anhydro business (“Anhydro”), Gerstenberg Schröder A/S (“Gerstenberg”), and Torque Tension Systems Ltd. (“TTS”) in 2010, and the impact of the weaker U.S. dollar against most foreign currencies (e.g., the Euro and British Pound). The organic revenue growth was attributable primarily to additional sales into the power and energy, oil and gas, general industrial, and food and beverage end markets of our Flow Technology segment, as well as increased demand from the automotive OEM customers within our Test and Measurement segment. These increases in organic revenue were offset partially by organic declines within our Thermal Equipment and Services segment, associated primarily with volume declines of dry cooling products in China, and our Industrial Products and Services segment, related primarily to the timing of power transformer shipments and lower pricing on power transformers. The incremental revenues to the first quarter of 2011 associated with the Murdoch and DS acquisitions were less than $1.0.

 

27



 

Gross Profit — The increase in gross profit for the three months ended April 2, 2011, compared to the respective 2010 period, was due primarily to the revenue performance described above. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues was impacted favorably by an insurance recovery of $6.3 related to a product liability matter that was settled in 2007 and improved fixed cost absorption associated with the organic revenue noted above. These increases were offset partially by unfavorable project mix within the Thermal Equipment and Services segment and lower pricing on power transformers.

 

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses — For the three months ended April 2, 2011, the increase in SG&A expense was due primarily to the following:

 

·      Incremental SG&A associated with the Anhydro, Gerstenberg and TTS acquisitions of $9.1;

·      Additional SG&A resulting from the organic revenue growth during the quarter;

·      An increase of $7.8 in stock compensation expense, primarily attributable to (i) a higher fair value for the 2011 stock compensation awards resulting from an increase in our share price and (ii) an increase in the number of awards granted in 2011, primarily to participants that already have met the service requirements under the plan (i.e., age 55 and five years of service);

·      Higher corporate expense as a result of increases in deferred compensation of $3.5 associated with current period earnings on participant account balances, additional incentive compensation resulting from an expected increase in consolidated profitability during 2011, and additional costs associated with certain corporate-led initiatives (e.g., global expansion, innovation, and the SPX branding initiatives); and

·      A weaker U.S. dollar against most foreign currencies in the first quarter of 2011 (compared to the first quarter of 2010), which resulted in an increase in SG&A of approximately $4.4.

 

Intangible Amortization For the three months ended April 2, 2011, the increase in intangible amortization was due primarily to incremental amortization associated with intangible assets purchased in the Anhydro, Gerstenberg and TTS acquisitions.

 

Special Charges, net Special charges related primarily to restructuring initiatives to consolidate manufacturing, distribution, and administrative facilities and functions. See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the details of actions taken in 2011 and 2010.

 

Other Income (Expense), net — Other income (expense), net, for the three months ended April 2, 2011 was composed primarily of investment earnings of $3.5 on participant deferred compensation balances, insurance settlements of $1.5 related to death benefits received and a property insurance claim, and a net increase in the fair value of our foreign currency protection agreements (“FX forward contracts”) and currency forward embedded derivatives (“FX embedded derivatives”) of $1.8 (see Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements), partially offset by foreign currency transaction losses of $4.0. Other income (expense), net, for the three months ended April 3, 2010 was composed primarily of charges associated with a net decline in fair value of our FX forward contracts and FX embedded derivatives of $12.3 (see Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements).

 

Interest Expense, net Interest expense, net, includes both interest expense and interest income. The increase in interest expense, net, was the result of replacing the term loan under our senior credit facilities (a loan that carried an interest rate, inclusive of the impact of the related interest rate protection agreements (“Swaps”), of approximately 5.0%) with the $600.0 of 6.875% senior notes in August 2010. Refer to the discussion of Liquidity and Financial Condition in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K for details pertaining to our 2010 debt activity.

 

Equity Earnings in Joint Ventures Our equity earnings in joint ventures were primarily attributable to our investment in EGS Electrical Group, LLC and Subsidiaries (“EGS”), as earnings from this investment totaled $8.5 and $8.3 during the three months ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010, respectively.

 

Income Tax Provision — For the three months ended April 2, 2011, we recorded an income tax provision of $13.5 on $40.2 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective tax rate of 33.6%. This compares to an income tax provision for the three months ended April 3, 2010 of $11.7 on $29.6 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective tax rate of 39.5%. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended April 3, 2010 was impacted unfavorably by a domestic charge of $6.2 associated with the taxation of prescription drug costs for retirees under Medicare Part D as a result of the first quarter 2010 enactment of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. This charge was offset partially by net discrete tax benefits of $5.4 associated with the resolution of certain domestic and foreign tax positions.

RESULTS OF DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

As part of our operating strategy, we regularly review and negotiate potential divestitures, some of which are or may be material. As a result of this continuous review, we determined that certain of our businesses would be better strategic fits with other companies or investors.

 

We report businesses or asset groups as discontinued operations when, among other things, we commit to a plan to divest the business or asset group, actively begin marketing the business or asset group, and when the sale of the business or asset group is deemed probable within the next twelve months. The following businesses, which have been sold, met these requirements and therefore have been reported as discontinued operations for the periods presented.

Cooling Spain — Sold for cash consideration of one Euro (exclusive of cash transferred with the business of $2.3), resulting in a loss, net of taxes, of $1.9 during the fourth quarter of 2010. During the first quarter of 2011, we recorded a net charge of $0.1 to “Gain (loss) on disposition of discontinued operations, net of taxes” within our condensed consolidated statements of operations in connection with adjustments to certain liabilities that we retained.

 

PSD — Sold for cash consideration of $3.0, resulting in a gain, net of taxes, of $3.6 during the first quarter of 2010.

 

In addition to the businesses discussed above, we recognized a net loss of $1.8 during the first quarter of 2011 resulting from adjustments to gains/losses on sales from previously discontinued businesses. Refer to the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the disclosure of all discontinued businesses during 2008 through 2010.

 

The final sales price for certain of the divested businesses is subject to adjustment based on working capital existing at the respective closing dates. The working capital figures are subject to agreement with the buyers or, if we cannot come to agreement, an arbitration process. Final agreement of the working capital figures for certain of these transactions has yet to occur. In addition, changes in estimates associated with liabilities retained in connection with a business divestiture (e.g., income taxes) may occur. It is possible that the sales price and resulting gains/losses on these, and other previous divestitures, may be materially adjusted in subsequent periods.

 

For the first three months of 2011 and 2010, income (loss) from discontinued operations and the related income taxes are shown below:

Non-GAAP MeasuresThroughout the following discussion of segment results, we use “organic revenue” growth (decline) to facilitate explanation of the operating performance of our segments. Organic revenue growth (decline) is a non-GAAP financial measure, and is not a substitute for revenue growth (decline). Refer to the explanation of this measure and purpose of use by management under “Results of Continuing Operations—Non GAAP Measures.”

Revenues — For the three months ended April 2, 2011, the increase in revenues, compared to the respective 2010 period, was due to organic revenue growth, incremental revenues of $30.8 associated with the acquisitions of Anhydro and Gerstenberg in 2010, and the favorable impact of a weaker U.S. dollar during the period. Organic revenue growth was attributable primarily to additional sales into the power and energy, oil and gas, general industrial, and food and beverage end markets.

 

Segment Income — For the three months ended April 2, 2011, segment income and margin increased, compared to the respective 2010 period, primarily as a result of the impact of the organic revenue growth noted above.

Revenues — For the three months ended April 2, 2011, the decrease in revenues, compared to the respective 2010 period, was the result of a decline in organic revenues, partially offset by a weaker U.S. dollar. The decline in organic revenues was associated with a decline in sales of dry cooling products in China.

 

Segment Income — For the three months ended April 2, 2011, segment income and margin decreased, compared to the respective 2010 period, primarily as a result of unfavorable project mix and the organic revenue decline noted above.

Revenues — For the three months ended April 2, 2011, the decrease in revenues, compared to the respective 2010 period, was due to a decline in organic revenues, partially offset by incremental revenues associated with the 2010 acquisition of TTS and the favorable impact of a weaker U.S. dollar. The decline in organic revenue was due primarily to the timing of power transformer shipments and lower pricing on power transformers. These decreases in organic revenue were offset partially by additional sales of hydraulic tools and equipment and solar power products.

 

Segment Income — For the three months ended April 2, 2011, the decrease in segment income and margin, compared to the respective 2010 period, was due primarily to the organic revenue decline noted above, including the impact of reduced sales prices for power transformers, partially offset by an insurance recovery of $6.3 related to a product liability matter that was settled in 2007.

Corporate Expense — Corporate expense generally relates to the cost of our Charlotte, NC corporate headquarters and our Asia Pacific center in Shanghai, China. For the three months ended April 2, 2011, the increase in corporate expense was attributable to increases in deferred compensation of $3.5 associated with current period earnings on participant account

balances, additional incentive compensation resulting from an expected increase in consolidated profitability during 2011, and additional costs associated with certain corporate-led initiatives (e.g., global expansion, innovation, and the SPX branding initiatives).

 

Stock-based Compensation Expense — The increase in stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended April 2, 2011, compared to the prior year period, was due primarily to an increase in the fair value of our 2011 restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards and an increase in the number of awards granted in 2011, primarily to participants that already have met the service requirements under the plan (i.e., age 55 and five years of service). The weighted-average fair value of our 2011 stock-based compensation awards, which is directly correlated to changes in our share price (see Note 12 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our valuation technique), increased approximately 28% compared to the weighted-average fair value of our 2010 awards.

 

Pension and Postretirement Expense — Pension and postretirement expense represents our consolidated expense, which we do not allocate for segment reporting purposes. The decrease in pension and postretirement expense for the three months ended April 2, 2011, compared to the prior year period, was due to an increase in the number of inactive participants in one of our domestic pension plans, which resulted in almost all of the plan participants being inactive. Accordingly, in 2011, we began amortizing the unrecognized gains/losses over the average remaining life expectancy of the inactive participants as opposed to the average remaining service period of the active participants. This change resulted in reduced pension expense of approximately $5.0 during the first quarter of 2011.

 

OUTLOOK

 

The following table highlights our backlog as of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and the revenue and profit margin expectations for our segments for 2011 based on information available at the time of this report.

 

Segment

 

Comments

Flow Technology

 

In the first quarter of 2011, the segment experienced a revenue increase of 28.8%, including organic growth of 18.1%. For 2011, we are projecting full year revenues to increase between 15% and 20% as a result of increased demand across most of the end markets served by the segment and, to a lesser extent, incremental revenues from the 2010 acquisitions and the 2011 acquisition of Murdoch and favorable foreign currency impact. We are projecting margins to be between 13.2% and 13.7% for 2011. The segment had backlog of $847.9 and $789.2 as of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. We expect to convert approximately 82% of the segment’s April 2, 2011 backlog to revenues in the remainder of 2011.

 

 

 

Test and Measurement

 

In the first quarter of 2011, the segment experienced a revenue increase of 21.8%. For 2011, we are projecting full year revenues to increase between 13% and 18%, driven primarily by organic growth associated with increased new model introductions, our own new product launches, incremental revenues associated with the recent acquisition of DS and, to a lesser extent, favorable foreign currency impact. We are projecting margins to be between 8.7% and 9.2% for 2011. Backlog for the segment is not material, as its businesses are primarily short-cycle in nature.

 

 

 

Thermal Equipment and Services

 

In the first quarter of 2011, the segment experienced a revenue decline of 7.7%. We are projecting revenues to increase between 3% and 8% for the full year 2011, with the organic revenue increase concentrated in South Africa, the U.S., and Europe, partially offset by a decline in China. Additionally, we expect a favorable foreign currency impact. We are projecting margins to be between 10.1% and 10.6% for 2011. We had backlog of $1,624.2 and $1,625.1 as of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, across the segment, with the majority in our cooling systems and products and thermal services and equipment businesses. We expect to convert approximately 56% of the segment’s April 2, 2011 backlog to revenues during the remainder of 2011. Portions of this backlog are long-term in nature, with the related revenues expected to be recorded through 2014. We expect large contracts to continue to be significant for this segment, which may contribute to large fluctuations in revenues and profits from period to period.

 

 

 

Industrial Products and Services

 

In the first quarter of 2011, the segment experienced a revenue decline of 2.8%. We are projecting an increase in revenues of between 4% and 9% for the full year 2011, driven primarily by organic growth associated with increased sales of communication technology products, hydraulic tools and equipment, and solar power products. We

 

32



 

 

 

are projecting margins to be between 8.8% and 9.3% for 2011. Backlog for the segment totaled $402.9 and $359.4 as of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. We expect to convert approximately 76% of the segment’s April 2, 2011 backlog to revenues during the remainder of 2011.

 

We do not expect the recent tragic events in Japan to have a material impact on our results for 2011.  Annual sales in Japan are about 1% of our total annual revenues and we do not have manufacturing facilities in Japan nor do we expect any significant impact to our supply chain.  With regard to the broader implications of the Japan events, less than 3% of our total annual revenues are related to nuclear power.  In total, we have approximately $185.0 of nuclear power orders in our backlog as of April 2, 2011, which is split evenly between our Flow Technology and Thermal Equipment and Services segments.  We currently expect these orders to be delivered in 2011 and 2012.  Future nuclear power orders could face funding and approval challenges; however, we are well positioned to benefit from alternative investments in natural gas, coal and solar power.

Operating Activities — The increase in cash flows used in operating activities during the three months ended April 2, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, was due primarily to investments in working capital during the first quarter of 2011 in anticipation of volume increases during the remainder of the year.

 

Investing Activities — The increase in cash used in investing activities during the three months ended April 2, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, was due primarily to:

 

·      Acquisitions during the first quarter of 2011 of $46.5 compared to $26.8 during the first quarter of 2010, with the first quarter 2011 acquisitions being Murdoch and DS and the first quarter 2010 acquisition being Gerstenberg; and

·      An increase in capital expenditures during the first quarter of 2011 (first quarter 2011 - $16.4 vs. first quarter of 2010 - $11.8), with the increase related to construction of a central manufacturing center outside of Shanghai, China and expansion of our power transformer facility in Waukesha, WI.

 

Financing Activities — The decrease in cash flows from financing activities during the three months ended April 2, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, was due primarily to net borrowings of $23.4 in the first quarter of 2011, compared to net borrowings of $30.6 in the first quarter of 2010.

 

Discontinued Operations — The decrease in cash flows from discontinued operations during the three months ended April 2, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, was due primarily to cash proceeds recorded during the three months ended April 3, 2010 (i) in connection with the sale of PSD of $3.0 and (ii) for a promissory note of $3.7 that was received in connection with a 2009 disposition. There were no proceeds received for business dispositions during the three months ended April 2, 2011.

(5)       “Other” includes foreign currency translation on any debt instruments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

 

Certain of our businesses purchase goods and services under a purchase card program allowing payment beyond their normal payment terms. As these arrangements extend the payment of our businesses’ payables beyond their normal payment terms through third-party lending institutions, we have classified these amounts as short-term debt.

 

At April 2, 2011, we were in compliance with all covenant provisions of our senior credit facilities and senior notes.

 

Availability — At April 2, 2011, we had $508.7 of available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facilities after giving effect to $91.3 reserved for outstanding letters of credit. In addition, at April 2, 2011, we had $181.3 of available issuance capacity under our foreign trade facility after giving effect to $768.7 reserved for outstanding letters of credit. We also had $2.9 of letters of credit outstanding under separate facilities in China and South Africa. See Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements along with the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information on our senior credit facilities. We also have a trade receivables financing agreement, whereby we can borrow on a continuous basis up to $130.0. Availability of funds may fluctuate over time given changes in eligible receivable balances, but will not exceed the $130.0 program limit. As of April 2, 2011, we had $0.9 available under the trade receivables financing agreement, after giving effect to borrowings of $51.0. The facility contains representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnities customary for facilities of this type. The facility does not contain any covenants that we view as materially constraining to the activities of our business.

 

We have a shelf registration statement for 8.3 shares of common stock that may be issued for acquisitions. In addition, other financing instruments may be used from time to time, including, but not limited to, private placement instruments, operating leases, capital leases and securitizations. We expect that we will continue to access these markets as appropriate to maintain liquidity and to provide sources of funds for general corporate purposes, acquisitions or to refinance existing debt.

Financial Instruments

 

We measure our financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis, and nonfinancial assets and liabilities on a non-recurring basis, at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We utilize market data or assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2) or significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).

 

Our financial derivative assets and liabilities include FX forward contracts, FX embedded derivatives and forward contracts that manage the exposure on forecasted purchases of commodity raw materials (“commodity contracts”) that are measured at fair value using observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and our counterparties’ credit risks. Based on these inputs, the derivative assets and liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Based on our continued ability to enter into forward contracts, we consider the markets for our fair value instruments to be active.

 

As of April 2, 2011, there has been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative liabilities due to our own credit risk as the related instruments are collateralized under our senior credit facilities. Similarly, there has been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative assets based on our evaluation of our counterparties’ credit risk.

 

We primarily use the income approach, which uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are further discussed below.

 

Interest Rate Swaps

 

Prior to the August 2010 repayment of our variable rate term loan, we maintained Swaps to hedge the associated interest rate risk. These Swaps, which we designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges, effectively converted the majority of the borrowings under our variable rate term loan to a fixed rate of 4.795% plus the applicable margin. In connection with the repayment of our term loan, we terminated all our Swaps.

 

Currency Forward Contracts

 

We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our objective is to preserve the economic value of non-functional currency denominated cash flows and to minimize their impact. Our principal currency exposures relate to the Euro, Chinese Yuan, South African Rand and British Pound.

 

From time to time, we enter into FX forward contracts to manage the exposure on contracts with forecasted transactions denominated in non-functional currencies and to manage the risk of transaction gains and losses associated with assets/liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of certain subsidiaries. In addition, some of our contracts contain FX embedded derivatives, as the currency of exchange is not “clearly and closely” related to the functional currency of either party to the transaction. Certain of our FX forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges, as deemed appropriate. To the extent these derivatives are effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the derivatives’ fair value are included in AOCI. These changes in fair value will subsequently be reclassified into earnings as a component of revenues or cost of products sold, as applicable, when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings. In addition, if the forecasted transaction is no longer probable the cumulative change in the derivatives’ fair value will be recorded as a component of other income (expense), net in the period it occurs. To the extent that a previously designated hedging transaction is no longer an effective hedge, any ineffectiveness measured in the hedging relationship is recorded in earnings in the period it occurs. We had FX forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $193.7 and $199.5 outstanding as of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. We had FX embedded derivatives with an aggregate notional amount outstanding of $185.2 and $200.9 at April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The unrealized loss, net of taxes, recorded in AOCI related to FX embedded derivatives and FX forward contracts was $4.1 as of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010. We anticipate reclassifying approximately $1.0 of the unrealized loss to income over the next 12 months. The net gain (loss) recorded in “Other income (expense), net” from the change in the fair value of FX forward contracts and FX embedded derivatives totaled $1.8 and ($12.3) for the quarters ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010, respectively.

Commodity Contracts

 

From time to time, we enter into commodity contracts. At April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the outstanding notional amount of commodity contracts was 1.6 million and 1.8 million pounds of copper, respectively. We designate and account for these contracts as cash flow hedges and, to the extent these commodity contracts are effective in offsetting the variability of the forecasted purchases, the change in fair value is included in AOCI. We reclassify the AOCI associated with our commodity contracts to cost of products sold when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings. As of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair values of these contracts were $0.3 and $1.0, respectively, recorded as a current asset. The unrealized gain, net of taxes, recorded in AOCI was $0.4 and $0.8 as of April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. We anticipate reclassifying the unrealized gain to income over the next 12 months. The amount of gain/loss recognized during the quarters ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010 related to the ineffectiveness of the hedges was not material.

 

Investments in Equity Securities and Available-for-Sale Securities

 

Our available-for-sale securities include equity investments that are traded in active international markets. They are measured at fair value using closing stock prices from active markets and are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. At April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair value of these investments was $10.4 and $12.8, respectively, recorded as a noncurrent asset.

 

We elected to account for certain other investments in equity securities that are not readily marketable under the fair value option. At April 2, 2011 and December 31, 2010, these assets had a fair value of $8.2 and $8.5, respectively, which was estimated using valuation models, including the Monte-Carlo simulation model.

 

The table below presents a reconciliation of our investment in equity securities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the quarter ended April 2, 2011, including net unrealized losses included in earnings.

Other Fair Value Financial Assets and Liabilities

 

The carrying amount of cash and equivalents and receivables reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

 

The fair value of our debt instruments, based on borrowing rates available to us at April 2, 2011 for similar debt, was $1,315.5 compared to our carrying value of $1,221.9.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, and foreign currency forward and commodity contracts. These financial instruments, other than trade accounts receivable, are placed with high-quality financial institutions throughout the world. We periodically evaluate the credit standing of these financial institutions.

 

We are exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to the above financial instruments, but have no other off-balance-sheet credit risk of accounting loss. We anticipate, however, that counterparties will be able to

 

36



 

fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts. We do not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk, but we do monitor the credit standing of counterparties.

 

Concentrations of credit risk arising from trade accounts receivable are due to selling to a large number of customers in a particular industry. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial conditions and obtain collateral or other security when appropriate. No one customer, or group of customers that to our knowledge are under common control, accounted for more than 10% of our revenues for any period presented.

 

Other Matters

 

Contractual Obligations — There were no significant changes in the amounts of our contractual obligations from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Our total net liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits including interest were $86.3 as of April 2, 2011. We believe that within the next 12 months it is reasonably possible that we could pay approximately $20.0 to $30.0 relating to uncertain tax positions, which includes an estimate for interest and penalties.

 

Contingencies and Other Matters — Numerous claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including those relating to litigation matters (e.g., class actions, derivative lawsuits and contracts, intellectual property and competitive claims), environmental matters, and risk management matters (e.g., product and general liability, automobile, and workers’ compensation claims), have been filed or are pending against us and certain of our subsidiaries. We accrue for these contingencies when we believe a liability is probable and can be reasonably estimated. As events change and resolution occurs, these accruals may be adjusted and could differ materially from amounts originally estimated. See Notes 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a further discussion of contingencies and other matters.

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that we shall indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law for any personal liability in connection with their employment or service with us. While we maintain insurance for this type of liability, the liability could exceed the amount of the insurance coverage.

 

In addition, you should read “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Other Matters” and “Risk Factors” in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as similar sections in any future filings for an understanding of the risks, uncertainties, and trends facing our businesses.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The accounting policies that we believe are most critical to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments in estimating the effect of inherent uncertainties are discussed in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have effected no material change in either our critical accounting policies or use of estimates since the filing of our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Some of the statements in this document and any documents incorporated by reference, including any statements as to future results of operations and financial projections, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our businesses or our industries’ actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. Such statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies, prospects, changes and trends in our business and the markets in which we operate under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of those terms or other comparable terminology. Particular risks facing us include economic, business and other risks stemming from our international operations, legal and regulatory risks, costs of raw materials, pricing pressures, pension funding requirements, integration of acquisitions and changes in the economy. These statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially because of market conditions in our industries or other factors. All the forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-

K, in any subsequent filing with the SEC, as well as any documents incorporated by reference that describe risks and factors that could cause results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements.

 

We caution you that these risk factors may not be exhaustive. We operate in a continually changing business environment and frequently enter into new businesses and product lines. We cannot predict these new risk factors, and we cannot assess the impact, if any, of these new risk factors on our businesses or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not rely on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. In addition, our estimates of future operating results are based on our current complement of businesses, which is subject to change as management selects strategic markets.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Management does not believe our exposure to market risk has significantly changed since December 31, 2010 and does not believe that such risks will result in significant adverse impacts to our financial condition or results of operations.

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

 

SPX management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), as of April 2, 2011. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of April 2, 2011.

 

In connection with the evaluation by SPX management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of our internal control over financial reporting, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), no changes during the quarter ended April 2, 2011 were identified that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
