Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2016

(Unaudited)

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited. AMETEK, Inc. (the “Company”) believes that all adjustments (which primarily consist of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position of the Company at June 30, 2016, the consolidated results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 have been included. Quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). The objective of ASU 2014-09 is to establish a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity recognizes revenue at the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In applying the new guidance, the Company must (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the contract’s performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 applies to all contracts with customers except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and can be adopted by the Company using either a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach. ASU 2014-09 may be early adopted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company has developed an implementation plan, which is currently in the assessment phase. The Company is in the process of determining the impact ASU 2014-09 may have on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position, cash flows and financial statement disclosures, and has not decided upon the method of adoption.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 is intended to improve targeted areas of consolidation guidance for legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). ASU 2015-02 makes specific amendments to the current consolidation guidance and ends the deferral granted to investment companies from applying the variable interest entities guidance. The Company adopted ASU 2015-02 effective January 1, 2016 and the adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU 2015-03 requires debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the associated debt liability. The Company adopted ASU 2015-03 effective January 1, 2016 and the adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (“ASU 2015-05”). ASU 2015-05 is intended to help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement. The guidance clarifies that customers should determine whether a cloud computing arrangement includes the license of software by applying the same guidance cloud service providers use to make this determination. The Company prospectively adopted ASU 2015-05 effective January 1, 2016 and the adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015-11”), which applies to inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) or average cost. As prescribed in this update, an entity should measure inventory that is within scope at the lower of cost and net realizable value, which is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (“LIFO”). ASU 2015-11 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and should be applied prospectively with early adoption permitted at the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company has not determined the impact ASU 2015-11 may have on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (“ASU 2015-17”). ASU 2015-17 simplifies the presentation of deferred taxes by requiring deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent on the consolidated balance sheet. ASU 2015-17 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. ASU 2015-17 may be adopted prospectively or retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not determined the impact ASU 2015-17 may have on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows and has not decided upon the method of adoption.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”). The new standard establishes a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than twelve months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU 2016-02 is to be adopted using a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not determined the impact ASU 2016-02 may have on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position, cash flows and financial statement disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 includes changes to the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not determined the impact ASU 2016-09 may have on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position, cash flows and financial statement disclosures.

The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares considered outstanding during the periods. The calculation of diluted earnings per share reflects the effect of all potentially dilutive securities (principally outstanding stock options and restricted stock grants). The number of weighted average shares used in the calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share was as follows:

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

The Company utilizes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to the valuations used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table provides the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, consistent with the fair value hierarchy:

The fair value of fixed-income investments, which are valued as level 1 investments, was based on quoted market prices. The fixed-income investments are shown as a component of long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheet.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, gains and losses on the investments noted above were not significant. No transfers between level 1 and level 2 investments occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Financial Instruments

Cash, cash equivalents and fixed-income investments are recorded at fair value at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

The following table provides the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instrument liabilities, for which fair value is measured for disclosure purposes only, compared to the recorded amounts at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

The fair value of short-term borrowings, net approximates the carrying value. Short-term borrowings, net are valued as level 2 investments as they are corroborated by observable market data. The Company’s long-term debt, net is all privately held with no public market for this debt, therefore, the fair value of long-term debt, net was computed based on comparable current market data for similar debt instruments and is considered to be a level 3 liability.

The Company has designated certain foreign-currency-denominated long-term borrowings as hedges of the net investment in certain foreign operations. As of June 30, 2016, these net investment hedges included British-pound-denominated long-term debt. These borrowings were designed to create net investment hedges in each of the designated foreign subsidiaries. The Company designated the British-pound-denominated loans referred to above as hedging instruments to offset translation gains or losses on the net investment due to changes in the British pound exchange rate. These net investment hedges are evidenced by management’s contemporaneous documentation supporting the hedge designation. Any gain or loss on the hedging instruments (the debt) following hedge designation is reported in accumulated other comprehensive income in the same manner as the translation adjustment on the investment based on changes in the spot rate, which is used to measure hedge effectiveness.

At June 30, 2016, the Company had $159.0 million of British-pound-denominated loans, which were designated as a hedge against the net investment in British pound functional currency foreign subsidiaries. As a result of the British-pound-denominated loans being designated and 100% effective as net investment hedges, $18.1 million of currency remeasurement gains have been included in the foreign currency translation component of other comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

The Company spent $293.5 million in cash, net of cash acquired, to acquire Brookfield Engineering Laboratories (“Brookfield”) and ESP/SurgeX in January 2016. Brookfield is a manufacturer of viscometers and rheometers, as well as instrumentation to analyze texture and powder flow. ESP/SurgeX is a manufacturer of energy intelligence and power protection, monitoring and diagnostic solutions. Brookfield and ESP/SurgeX are part of AMETEK’s Electronic Instruments Group.

The following table represents the preliminary allocation of the aggregate purchase price for the net assets of the above acquisitions based on their estimated fair values at acquisition (in millions):

The amount allocated to goodwill is reflective of the benefits the Company expects to realize from the acquisitions as follows: Brookfield’s viscosity measurement instrumentation products and technologies complement the Company’s existing laboratory instrumentation businesses and provides the Company with opportunities to expand that business platform into a broader range of markets and applications. ESP/SurgeX’s patented technology is widely used by the business equipment, imaging, audio visual, information technology, gaming and vending industries and is a strategic fit with the Company’s existing power protection platform to accelerate product innovation and market expansion worldwide. The Company expects approximately $100 million of the goodwill recorded in connection with the 2016 acquisitions will be tax deductible in future years.

At June 30, 2016, purchase price allocated to other intangible assets of $145.1 million consists of $23.5 million of indefinite-lived intangible trade names, which are not subject to amortization. The remaining $121.6 million of other intangible assets consists of $97.1 million of customer relationships, which are being amortized over a period of 19 years and $24.5 million of purchased technology, which is being amortized over a period of 15 years. Amortization expense for each of the next five years for the 2016 acquisitions listed above is expected to approximate $7 million per year.

The Company is in the process of finalizing the measurement of certain tangible and intangible assets and liabilities for its 2016 acquisitions, including property, plant and equipment, goodwill, customer relationships, trade names, purchased technology and the accounting for income taxes.

The 2016 acquisitions noted above had an immaterial impact on reported net sales, net income and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. Had the 2016 acquisitions been made at the beginning of 2016 or 2015, unaudited pro forma net sales, net income and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, would not have been materially different than the amounts reported. Pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred if the acquisitions had been completed at the beginning of 2016 or 2015.

Acquisitions Subsequent to June 30, 2016

In July 2016, the Company acquired HS Foils and Nu Instruments for approximately $65 million. HS Foils develops and manufactures key components used in radiation detectors including ultra-thin radiation windows, silicon drift detectors and x-ray filters. HS Foils broadens the Company’s product offering and technical capabilities with its approach of bringing advanced materials and fabrication methods from micro- and nanofabrication to completely new application areas. Nu Instruments is a provider of magnetic sector mass spectrometers used for elemental and isotope analysis. Nu Instruments broadens the Company’s product offering and technical capabilities in differentiated, high-end analytical instrumentation. HS Foils and Nu Instruments will join AMETEK’s Electronic Instruments Group.

The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill by segment were as follows:

At June 30, 2016, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $64.2 million, of which $54.3 million, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate.

The following is a reconciliation of the liability for uncertain tax positions (in millions):

The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. The amounts recognized in income tax expense for interest and penalties during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were not significant.

In March 2016, the Company along with certain of its foreign subsidiaries amended and restated its credit agreement dated as of September 22, 2011 (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s existing $700 million revolving credit facility, which was due to expire in December 2018. The Credit Agreement consists of a five-year revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $850 million with a final maturity date in March 2021. The revolving credit facility total borrowing capacity excludes an accordion feature that permits the Company to request up to an additional $300 million in revolving credit commitments at any time during the life of the Credit Agreement under certain conditions. The Credit Agreement places certain restrictions on allowable additional indebtedness. Interest rates on outstanding loans under the revolving credit facility are at the applicable benchmark rate plus a negotiated spread or at the U.S. prime rate. At June 30, 2016, the Company had available borrowing capacity of $571.2 million under its revolving credit facility, including the $300 million accordion feature.

Total share-based compensation expense was as follows:

Pre-tax share-based compensation expense is included in the consolidated statement of income in either Cost of sales, excluding depreciation or Selling, general and administrative expenses, depending on where the recipient’s cash compensation is reported.

The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The following weighted average assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes-Merton model to estimate the fair values of stock options granted during the years indicated:

Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company used historical exercise data to estimate the stock options’ expected term, which represents the period of time that the stock options granted are expected to be outstanding. Management anticipates that the future stock option holding periods will be similar to the historical stock option holding periods. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the expected term of the stock option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of grant. Compensation expense recognized for all share-based awards is net of estimated forfeitures. The Company’s estimated forfeiture rates are based on its historical experience.

The following is a summary of the Company’s stock option activity and related information:

The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $10.9 million. The total fair value of stock options vested during the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $10.6 million. As of June 30, 2016, there was approximately $24.0 million of expected future pre-tax compensation expense related to the 2.9 million nonvested stock options outstanding, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately two years.

The following is a summary of the Company’s nonvested restricted stock activity and related information:

The total fair value of restricted stock vested during the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $10.7 million. As of June 30, 2016, there was approximately $35.3 million of expected future pre-tax compensation expense related to the 1.1 million nonvested restricted shares outstanding, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately two years.

The components of net periodic pension benefit expense (income) were as follows:

For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, contributions to the Company’s defined benefit pension plans were $1.8 million and $51.6 million, respectively. The Company’s current estimate of 2016 contributions to its worldwide defined benefit pension plans is in line with the range disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The Company provides limited warranties in connection with the sale of its products. The warranty periods for products sold vary widely among the Company’s operations, but for the most part do not exceed one year. The Company calculates its warranty expense provision based on past warranty experience and adjustments are made periodically to reflect actual warranty expenses.

Within the product warranty table below, the six months ended June 30, 2015 has been adjusted to disclose gross accruals for warranties issued during the period and gross settlements made during the period to conform to the current period presentation.

Changes in the accrued product warranty obligation were as follows:

Certain settlements of warranties made during the period were for specific nonrecurring warranty obligations. Product warranty obligations are reported as current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.

Asbestos Litigation

The Company (including its subsidiaries) has been named as a defendant, along with many other companies, in a number of asbestos-related lawsuits. Many of these lawsuits either relate to businesses which were acquired by the Company and do not involve products which were manufactured or sold by the Company or relate to previously owned businesses of the Company which are under new ownership. In connection with many of these lawsuits, the sellers or new owners of such businesses, as the case may be, have agreed to indemnify the Company against these claims (the “Indemnified Claims”). The Indemnified Claims have been tendered to, and are being defended by, such sellers and new owners. These sellers and new owners have met their obligations, in all respects, and the Company does not have any reason to believe such parties would fail to fulfill their obligations in the future; however, one of these companies filed for bankruptcy liquidation in 2007. To date, no judgments have been rendered against the Company as a result of any asbestos-related lawsuit. The Company believes it has strong defenses to the claims being asserted and intends to continue to vigorously defend itself in these matters.

Environmental Matters

Certain historic processes in the manufacture of products have resulted in environmentally hazardous waste by-products as defined by federal and state laws and regulations. At June 30, 2016, the Company is named a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) at 14 non-AMETEK-owned former waste disposal or treatment sites (the “non-owned” sites). The Company is identified as a “de minimis” party in 13 of these sites based on the low volume of waste attributed to the Company relative to the amounts attributed to other named PRPs. In nine of these sites, the Company has reached a tentative agreement on the cost of the de minimis settlement to satisfy its obligation and is awaiting executed agreements. The tentatively agreed-to settlement amounts are fully reserved. In the other four sites, the Company is continuing to investigate the accuracy of the alleged volume attributed to the Company as estimated by the parties primarily responsible for remedial activity at the sites to establish an appropriate settlement amount. At the remaining site where the Company is a non-de minimis PRP, the Company is participating in the investigation and/or related required remediation as part of a PRP Group and reserves have been

15

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

established sufficient to satisfy the Company’s expected obligations. The Company historically has resolved these issues within established reserve levels and reasonably expects this result will continue. In addition to these non-owned sites, the Company has an ongoing practice of providing reserves for probable remediation activities at certain of its current or previously owned manufacturing locations (the “owned” sites). For claims and proceedings against the Company with respect to other environmental matters, reserves are established once the Company has determined that a loss is probable and estimable. This estimate is refined as the Company moves through the various stages of investigation, risk assessment, feasibility study and corrective action processes. In certain instances, the Company has developed a range of estimates for such costs and has recorded a liability based on the low end of the range. It is reasonably possible that the actual cost of remediation of the individual sites could vary from the current estimates and the amounts accrued in the consolidated financial statements; however, the amounts of such variances are not expected to result in a material change to the consolidated financial statements. In estimating the Company’s liability for remediation, the Company also considers the likely proportionate share of the anticipated remediation expense and the ability of the other PRPs to fulfill their obligations.

Total environmental reserves at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were $28.1 million and $30.5 million, respectively, for both non-owned and owned sites. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded $1.4 million in reserves. Additionally, the Company spent $3.4 million on environmental matters and had $0.4 million due to foreign currency translation losses for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The Company’s reserves for environmental liabilities at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 include reserves of $12.7 million and $11.5 million, respectively, for an owned site acquired in connection with the 2005 acquisition of HCC Industries (“HCC”). The Company is the designated performing party for the performance of remedial activities for one of several operating units making up a Superfund site in the San Gabriel Valley of California. The Company has obtained indemnifications and other financial assurances from the former owners of HCC related to the costs of the required remedial activities. At June 30, 2016, the Company had $11.8 million in receivables related to HCC for probable recoveries from third-party escrow funds and other committed third-party funds to support the required remediation. Also, the Company is indemnified by HCC’s former owners for approximately $19 million of additional costs.

The Company has agreements with other former owners of certain of its acquired businesses, as well as new owners of previously owned businesses. Under certain of the agreements, the former or new owners retained, or assumed and agreed to indemnify the Company against, certain environmental and other liabilities under certain circumstances. The Company and some of these other parties also carry insurance coverage for some environmental matters. To date, these parties have met their obligations in all material respects.

The Company believes it has established reserves which are sufficient to perform all known responsibilities under existing claims and consent orders. The Company has no reason to believe that other third parties would fail to perform their obligations in the future. In the opinion of management, based upon presently available information and past experience related to such matters, an adequate provision for probable costs has been made and the ultimate cost resulting from these actions is not expected to materially affect the consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

The Company has two reportable segments, Electronic Instruments Group (“EIG”) and Electromechanical Group (“EMG”). The Company’s operating segments are identified based on the existence of segment managers. Certain of the Company’s operating segments have been aggregated for segment reporting purposes primarily on the basis of product type, production processes, distribution methods and similarity of economic characteristics.

At June 30, 2016, there were no significant changes in identifiable assets of reportable segments from the amounts disclosed at December 31, 2015, other than those described in the acquisitions footnote (Note 8), nor were there any significant changes in the basis of segmentation or in the measurement of segment operating results. Operating information relating to the Company’s reportable segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 can be found in the table included in Part I, Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company repurchased approximately 2,824,000 shares of its common stock for $135.3 million in cash under its share repurchase authorization. At June 30, 2016, $176.4 million was available under the Company’s Board of Directors authorization for future share repurchases. In July 2016, the Company repurchased an additional 1.0 million shares of its common stock for $45.0 million. As of July 31, 2016, $131.5 million was available under the Company’s Board of Directors authorization for future share repurchases.

During the first quarter of 2015, the Company recorded pre-tax restructuring charges totaling $15.9 million, which had the effect of reducing net income by $10.8 million ($0.04 per diluted share). The restructuring charges were reported in the consolidated statement of income as follows: $15.8 million in Cost of sales, excluding depreciation and $0.1 million in Selling, general and administrative expenses. The restructuring charges were reported in segment operating income as follows: $9.3 million in EIG, $6.5 million in EMG and $0.1 million in corporate administrative expenses. The restructuring actions primarily related to a reduction in workforce in response to the impact of the weak global economy on certain of the Company’s businesses and the effects of a continued strong U.S. dollar. The restructuring activities have been broadly implemented across the Company’s various businesses with all actions expected to be completed in the second half of 2016.

The following table sets forth net sales and income by reportable segment and on a consolidated basis:

In both the second quarter of 2016 and the first six months of 2016, the Company was impacted by the weak global economy and the effects of a continued strong U.S. dollar. Specifically, the Company experienced lower sales in its Process businesses with exposure to oil and gas markets, in its Engineered Materials, Interconnects and Packaging businesses with metals markets exposure and in its highly competitive Floor Care and Specialty Motors businesses. The Company expects the challenging global economic environment across many of its markets, as noted above, and geographies to continue through the remainder of 2016.

Contributions from the acquisitions of Brookfield Engineering Laboratories (“Brookfield”) and ESP/SurgeX in January 2016, Surface Vision in July 2015 and Global Tubes in May 2015, as well as the Company’s Operational Excellence initiatives, including the 2015 realignment actions, had a positive impact on the second quarter of 2016 and the first six months of 2016 results. The Company recorded realignment costs totaling $36.6 million, with $15.9 million recorded in the first quarter of 2015 and $20.7 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2015 (the “2015 realignment costs”). The 2015 realignment costs primarily related to reductions in workforce in response to the impact of the weak global economy on certain of the Company’s businesses, as well as the effects of a continued strong U.S. dollar.

Net sales for the second quarter of 2016 were $977.7 million, a decrease of $26.0 million or 2.6%, compared with net sales of $1,003.7 million for the second quarter of 2015. The decrease in net sales for the second quarter of 2016 was due to a 7% internal sales decline, partially offset by a 4% increase from acquisitions.

Total international sales for the second quarter of 2016 were $509.4 million or 52.1% of net sales, a decrease of $6.3 million or 1.2%, compared with international sales of $515.7 million or 51.4% of net sales for the second quarter of 2015. The $6.3 million decrease in international sales was primarily driven by the weak global economy noted above. Both reportable segments of the Company maintain strong international sales presences in Europe and Asia.

Orders for the second quarter of 2016 were $944.4 million, a decrease of $90.6 million or 8.8%, compared with $1,035.0 million for the second quarter of 2015. The decrease in orders for the second quarter of 2016 was due to a 7% internal order decline resulting from the weak global economy noted above and an unfavorable 3% effect of foreign currency translation, partially offset by a 1% increase from acquisitions.

Segment operating income for the second quarter of 2016 was $232.4 million, a decrease of $20.9 million or 8.3%, compared with segment operating income of $253.3 million for the second quarter of 2015. Segment operating income, as a percentage of net sales, decreased to 23.8% for the second quarter of 2016, compared with 25.2% for the second quarter of 2015.

Cost of sales, excluding depreciation expense for the second quarter of 2016 was $621.6 million or 63.6% of net sales, a decrease of $12.3 million or 1.9%, compared with $633.9 million or 63.2% of net sales for the second quarter of 2015. The cost of sales, excluding depreciation expense decrease for the second quarter of 2016 was affected by the net sales decrease noted above.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the second quarter of 2016 were $119.0 million, an increase of $6.3 million or 5.6%, compared with $112.7 million for the second quarter of 2015. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 12.2% for the second quarter of 2016, compared with 11.2% for the second quarter of 2015. Selling expenses for the second quarter of 2016 were $106.3 million, an increase of $6.4 million or 6.4%, compared with $99.9 million for the second quarter of 2015. The selling expenses increase was due primarily to business acquisitions. Selling expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 10.9% for the second quarter of 2016, compared with 10.0% for the second quarter of 2015. Selling expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased primarily due to essentially flat quarter over quarter base business selling expenses to support the Company’s businesses, on lower second quarter of 2016 base business net sales.

Corporate administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2016 were $12.6 million, a decrease of $0.2 million or 1.6%, compared with $12.8 million for the second quarter of 2015.

The increase in depreciation expense for the second quarter of 2016 was driven by the impact of the acquisitions noted above.

Consolidated operating income was $219.0 million or 22.4% of net sales for the second quarter of 2016, a decrease of $21.3 million or 8.9%, compared with $240.3 million or 23.9% of net sales for the second quarter of 2015.

Interest expense was $23.7 million for the second quarter of 2016, an increase of $1.0 million or 4.4%, compared with $22.7 million for the second quarter of 2015. The increase was primarily due to higher borrowings under the revolving credit facility to help fund the recent acquisitions and share repurchases.

The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2016 was 27.5%, compared with 27.7% for the second quarter of 2015. The effective tax rates for the second quarter of 2016 and 2015 reflect the impact of foreign earnings, which are taxed at lower rates. The second quarter of 2016 effective tax rate reflects tax benefits related to international and state tax planning initiatives. The second quarter of 2015 effective tax rate reflects the effective settlement of the U.S. research and development tax credit from the completion of an Internal Revenue Service examination for 2010 and 2011.

Net income for the second quarter of 2016 was $138.2 million, a decrease of $17.3 million or 11.1%, compared with $155.5 million for the second quarter of 2015.

Segment Results

Electronic Instruments Group’s (“EIG”) net sales totaled $596.0 million for the second quarter of 2016, a decrease of $0.5 million or essentially flat on a percentage basis, compared with $596.5 million for the second quarter of 2015. The net sales decrease was due to an 6% internal sales decline, driven largely by the Company’s Process businesses with exposure to oil and gas markets, offset by a 6% increase from the 2016 acquisitions of Brookfield and ESP/SurgeX and the 2015 acquisition of Surface Vision.

EIG’s operating income was $152.1 million for the second quarter of 2016, a decrease of $11.9 million or 7.3%, compared with $164.0 million for the second quarter of 2015. EIG’s operating margins were 25.5% of net sales for the second quarter of 2016, compared with 27.5% of net sales for the second quarter of 2015. The decrease in EIG’s operating income and operating margins for the second quarter of 2016 resulted primarily from the decrease in net sales noted above.

Electromechanical Group’s (“EMG”) net sales totaled $381.7 million for the second quarter of 2016, a decrease of $25.6 million or 6.3%, compared with $407.3 million for the second quarter of 2015. The net sales decrease was due to an 8% internal sales decline, driven largely by weakness in the Company’s Engineered Materials, Interconnects and Packaging businesses and lower sales in the Company’s Floor Care and Specialty Motors businesses, partially offset by a 2% increase from the 2015 acquisition of Global Tubes.

EMG’s operating income was $80.3 million for the second quarter of 2016, a decrease of $9.0 million or 10.1%, compared with $89.3 million for the second quarter of 2015. EMG’s operating margins were 21.0% of net sales for the second quarter of 2016, compared with 21.9% of net sales for the second quarter of 2015. The decrease in EMG’s operating income and operating margins for the second quarter of 2016 resulted primarily from the decrease in net sales noted above.

Results of operations for the first six months of 2016 compared with the first six months of 2015

Net sales for the first six months of 2016 were $1,922.1 million, a decrease of $65.7 million or 3.3%, compared with net sales of $1,987.8 million for the first six months of 2015. The decrease in net sales for the first six months of 2016 was due to an 8% internal sales decline, partially offset by a 5% increase from acquisitions.

Total international sales for the first six months of 2016 were $1,005.8 million or 52.3% of net sales, a decrease of $17.6 million or 1.7%, compared with international sales of $1,023.4 million or 51.5% of net sales for the first six months of 2015. The $17.6 million decrease in international sales was primarily driven by the weak global economy noted above. Both reportable segments of the Company maintain strong international sales presences in Europe and Asia.

Orders for the first six months of 2016 were $1,912.4 million, a decrease of $66.3 million or 3.4%, compared with $1,978.7 million for the first six months of 2015. The decrease in orders for the first six months of 2016 was due to a 7% internal order decline resulting from the weak global economy noted above, partially offset by a 4% increase from acquisitions. As a result, the Company’s backlog of unfilled orders at June 30, 2016 was $1,138.0 million, a decrease of $9.8 million or 0.9%, compared with $1,147.8 million at December 31, 2015.

Segment operating income, as a percentage of net sales, decreased to 23.6% for the first six months of 2016, compared with 24.5% for the first six months of 2015. For the first six months of 2015, segment operating income included $15.8 million of realignment costs recorded in the first quarter of 2015, which negatively impacted segment operating margins by approximately 80 basis points. The decrease in segment operating income and segment operating margins for the first six months of 2016 resulted primarily from the decrease in net sales noted above, partially offset by the benefit from the acquisitions noted above.

Cost of sales, excluding depreciation expense for the first six months of 2016 was $1,226.9 million or 63.8% of net sales, a decrease of $43.0 million or 3.4%, compared with $1,269.9 million or 63.9% of net sales for the first six months of 2015.

Selling expenses for the first six months of 2016 were $205.8 million, an increase of $7.1 million or 3.6%, compared with $198.7 million for the first six months of 2015. The selling expenses increase was due primarily to business acquisitions. Selling expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 10.7% for the first six months of 2016, compared with 10.0% for the first six months of 2015. Selling expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased primarily due to essentially flat period over period base business selling expenses to support the Company’s businesses, on lower first six months of 2016 base business net sales.

Corporate administrative expenses for the first six months of 2016 were $25.4 million, an increase of $0.5 million or 2.0%, compared with $24.9 million for the first six months of 2015.

Interest expense was $47.1 million for the first six months of 2016, an increase of $1.7 million or 3.7%, compared with $45.4 million for the first six months of 2015. The increase was primarily due to higher borrowings under the revolving credit facility to help fund the recent acquisitions and share repurchases.

The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2016 was 27.1%, compared with 27.8% for the first six months of 2015. The effective tax rates for the first six months of 2016 and 2015 reflect the impact of foreign earnings, which are taxed at lower rates. The first six months of 2016 effective tax rate reflects tax benefits related to international and state tax planning initiatives. The first six months of 2015 effective tax rate reflects the first quarter of 2015 release of uncertain tax position liabilities related to the conclusion of an advance thin capitalization agreement in the European Union, as well as the second quarter of 2015 effective settlement of the U.S. research and development tax credit from the completion of an Internal Revenue Service examination for 2010 and 2011.

Net income for the first six months of 2016 was $272.4 million, a decrease of $25.2 million or 8.5%, compared with $297.6 million for the first six months of 2015. The first quarter of 2015 realignment costs described above reduced the first six months of 2015 net income by $10.8 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $340.6 million for the first six months of 2016, an increase of $55.2 million or 19.3%, compared with $285.4 million for the first six months of 2015. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the $49.8 million reduction in defined benefit pension plan contributions, driven by a $50.0 million contribution to the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans in the first quarter of 2015. Free cash flow (cash flow provided by operating activities less capital expenditures) was $315.3 million for the first six months of 2016, compared with $259.4 million for the first six months of 2015. EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) was $501.2 million for the first six months of 2016, compared with $529.3 million for the first six months of 2015. Free cash flow and EBITDA are presented because the Company is aware that they are measures used by third parties in evaluating the Company.

Cash used for investing activities totaled $318.2 million for the first six months of 2016, compared with $224.8 million for the first six months of 2015.

Cash provided by financing activities totaled $56.5 million for the first six months of 2016, compared with $98.2 million of cash used for financing activities for the first six months of 2015. The change in financing cash flow was primarily the result of a net total borrowings increase of $221.9 million for the first six months of 2016, compared with a net total borrowings decrease of $47.3 million for the first six months of 2015.

For the first six months of 2016, the Company repurchased approximately 2,824,000 shares of its common stock for $135.3 million, compared with $57.2 million used for repurchases of approximately 1,075,000 shares for the first six months of 2015.

In March 2016, the Company along with certain of its foreign subsidiaries amended and restated its credit agreement dated as of September 22, 2011 (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s existing $700 million revolving credit facility, which was due to expire in December 2018. The Credit Agreement consists of a five-year revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $850 million with a final maturity date in March 2021. The revolving credit facility total borrowing capacity excludes an accordion feature that permits the Company to request up to an additional $300 million in revolving credit commitments at any time during the life of the Credit Agreement under certain conditions. The Credit Agreement places certain restrictions on allowable additional indebtedness. Interest rates on outstanding loans under the revolving credit facility are at the applicable benchmark rate plus a negotiated spread or at the U.S. prime rate. The revolving credit facility provides the Company with additional financial flexibility to support its growth plans, including its successful acquisition strategy. At June 30, 2016, the Company had available borrowing capacity of $571.2 million under its revolving credit facility, including the $300 million accordion feature.

At June 30, 2016, total debt, net was $2,142.2 million, compared with $1,938.0 million at December 31, 2015.
