DIEBOLD, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-Q as of September 30, 2014
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)



NOTE 1: CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Diebold, Incorporated and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP); however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods.
The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. In addition, some of the Company’s statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected future results. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
The Company has reclassified the presentation of certain prior-year information to conform to the current presentation.

The Company's Venezuelan operations consist of a fifty-percent owned subsidiary, which is consolidated. Venezuela is measured using the U.S. dollar as its functional currency because its economy is considered highly inflationary. On March 24, 2014, the Venezuelan government announced a currency exchange mechanism, SICAD 2, which yielded an exchange rate significantly higher than the rates established through the other regulated exchange mechanisms. Management has determined that it is unlikely that the Company will be able to convert bolivars under a currency exchange other than SICAD 2. On March 31, 2014, the Company remeasured its Venezuelan balance sheet using the SICAD 2 rate of 50.86 compared to the previous official government rate of 6.30, resulting in a decrease of $6,051 to the Company’s cash balance and net losses of $12,101 that were recorded within foreign exchange gain (loss), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2014. In addition, as a result of the currency devaluation, the Company recorded a $4,073 lower of cost or market adjustment related to its service inventory within service cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2014. In the future, if the Company converts bolivars at a rate other than the SICAD 2 rate, the Company may realize additional gains or losses that would be recorded in the statements of operations. The Company's Venezuelan operations represented less than one percent of the Company's total assets as of September 30, 2014 and less than one percent of net sales for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The Company does not expect its Venezuelan operations to be a significant component of its consolidated revenue or operating profit for the remainder of 2014.

In the second quarter of 2014, the Company divested its Diebold Eras, Incorporated (Eras) subsidiary for a sale price of $20,000, including installment payments of $1,000 on the first and second year anniversary dates of the closing. This sale resulted in a gain of $13,709 recognized within gain on sale of assets, net in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Revenue and operating profit in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 related to this divested subsidiary were $6,011 and $2,970, respectively, and are included within the North America (NA) segment. Net income before taxes related to this divested subsidiary are included in continuing operations and were $0 and $1,138 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $2,978 and $3,221 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

In the third quarter of 2013, the Company acquired 100 percent of the equity interests of Cryptera A/S (Cryptera), a supplier of the Company's encrypting PIN pad technology and a world leader in the research and development of secure payment technologies. This acquisition is expected to position the Company as a significant original equipment manufacturer of secure payment technologies and is expected to allow the Company to own more of the intellectual property related to its ATMs. The total purchase price was approximately $13,000, including a 10 percent deferred cash payment payable on the first anniversary of the acquisition. The results of operations for Cryptera are included in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) segment within the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (ASU 2013-11), which requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss (NOL) or tax credit carryforward whenever the NOL or tax credit carryforward would be available to reduce

the additional taxable income or tax due if the tax position is disallowed. This accounting standard update requires entities to assess whether to net the unrecognized tax benefit with a deferred tax asset as of the reporting date. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (ASU 2014-08), which includes amendments that change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and require additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization’s operations and financial results. Additionally, ASU 2014-08 requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of discontinued operations. In the second quarter of 2014, the Company elected to early adopt ASU 2014-08. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

NOTE 2: EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share includes the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding. Under the two-class method of computing earnings (loss) per share, non-vested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends are considered participating securities. The Company’s participating securities include restricted stock units (RSUs), deferred shares and shares that were vested, but deferred by the employee. The Company calculated basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share under both the treasury stock method and the two-class method. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, there was no impact in the per share amounts calculated under the two methods. Accordingly, the treasury stock method is disclosed below.

The following represents amounts used in computing earnings (loss) per share and the effect on the weighted-average number of shares of dilutive potential common shares:

The aggregate intrinsic value (the difference between the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the last trading day of the third quarter of 2014 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of “in-the-money” options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on September 30, 2014. The amount of aggregate intrinsic value will change based on the fair market value of the Company’s common shares.
(2)
The options expected to vest are the result of applying the pre-vesting forfeiture rate assumption to total outstanding non-vested options.

NOTE 6: INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate on income was 27.0 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and the effective tax rate on the loss was 28.2 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The third quarter 2014 rate was lower than the statutory rate because of earnings in lower-tax jurisdictions and tax benefits from discrete items recorded in the quarter. The reduced third quarter 2013 tax rate differed from the statutory rate mainly as a result of the non-deductible portion of the Company's Brazil goodwill impairment recorded during a quarter with overall losses.
The effective tax rate on income was 31.3 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the effective tax rate on the loss was (95.3) percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 includes a benefit from the release of a valuation allowance against excess capital losses offset by the negative impact of tax on foreign entities not permanently reinvested and the December 31, 2013 expiration of the Federal Research and Development Tax Credit and the Look-Thru Rule for Related Controlled Foreign Corporations under Section 954(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The negative tax rate for 2013 resulted from tax expense related to the repatriation of previously undistributed earnings and the establishment of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in the Company’s Brazilian manufacturing facility.
During the second quarter of 2014, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) completed its examination of the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2008-2010 and issued a Revenue Agent’s Report (RAR) that includes various proposed adjustments, including adjustments related to transfer pricing. The net tax deficiency, excluding interest, associated with the RAR is $6,300 after net operating loss utilization. In May 2014, the Company filed a protest challenging proposed adjustments contained in the RAR and will pursue resolution of these issues with the Appeals Division of the IRS. The Company believes it has adequately provided for any related uncertain tax positions.

NOTE 7: INVESTMENTS
The Company’s investments, primarily in Brazil, consist of certificates of deposit and U.S. dollar indexed bond funds, which are classified as available-for-sale and stated at fair value based upon quoted market prices and net asset values, respectively. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded in AOCI. Realized gains and losses are recognized in investment income and are determined using the specific identification method. Realized (losses) gains from the sale of securities were $(194) and $1,533 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $538 and $1,726 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Proceeds from the sale of available-for-sale securities were $39,586 and $22,711 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company’s investments, excluding cash surrender value of insurance contracts of $71,607 and $72,214 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, consisted of the following:

NOTE 8: ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
Trade Receivables The Company evaluates the collectability of trade receivables based on a percentage of sales related to historical loss experience. The Company will also record periodic adjustments for known events such as specific customer circumstances and changes in the aging of accounts receivable balances. After all efforts at collection have been unsuccessful, the account is deemed uncollectible and is written off.
Financing Receivables The Company evaluates the collectability of notes and finance lease receivables (collectively, financing receivables) on a customer-by-customer basis and evaluates specific customer circumstances, aging of invoices, credit risk changes, payment patterns and historical loss experience. When the collectability is determined to be at risk based on the above criteria, the Company records the allowance for credit losses, which represents the Company’s current exposure less estimated reimbursement from insurance claims. After all efforts at collection have been unsuccessful, the account is deemed uncollectible and is written off.
The following table summarizes the Company’s allowance for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013:

The Company's allowance of $4,500 and $446 at September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, all resulted from individual impairment evaluation. As of September 30, 2014, finance leases and notes receivable individually evaluated for impairment were $166,572 and $18,053, respectively. As of September 30, 2013, finance leases and notes receivable individually evaluated for impairment were $88,216 and $16,343, respectively. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s finance lease receivables in Brazil were $111,762 and $33,283, respectively. The increase related to customer financing arrangements within the education ministry.
The Company records interest income and any fees or costs related to financing receivables using the effective interest method over the term of the lease or loan. The Company reviews the aging of its financing receivables to determine past due and delinquent accounts. Credit quality is reviewed at inception and is re-evaluated as needed based on customer-specific circumstances. Receivable balances 60 days to 89 days past due are reviewed and may be placed on nonaccrual status based on customer-specific circumstances. Receivable balances are placed on nonaccrual status upon reaching greater than 89 days past due. Upon receipt of payment on nonaccrual financing receivables, interest income is recognized and accrual of interest is resumed once the account has been made current or the specific circumstances have been resolved.
As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the recorded investment in past-due financing receivables on nonaccrual status was $2,960 and $1,670, respectively, and there were no recorded investments in finance receivables past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. The recorded investment in impaired notes receivable was $4,134 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and was fully reserved.

NOTE 10: GOODWILL AND OTHER ASSETS
Goodwill Goodwill is reviewed annually for impairment in the fourth quarter. There have been no impairment indicators identified in any of the reporting units during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. During the third quarter of 2013, the Company performed an other-than-annual assessment for its Brazil reporting unit based on a two-step impairment test as a result of a reduced earnings outlook for the Brazil business unit. The Company concluded that the goodwill within the Brazil reporting unit was partially impaired and recorded a $70,000 pre-tax, non-cash goodwill impairment charge. In connection with the 2013 fourth quarter annual goodwill impairment test, the Company concluded the Asia Pacific (AP) reporting unit had excess fair value of approximately $23,000 or eight percent when compared to its carrying amount. The amount of goodwill in the Company’s AP reporting unit was $41,544 and $41,307 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, the Domestic and Canada and Latin America (LA) reporting units had excess fair value significantly greater than their carrying amounts.

Other Assets Included in other assets are net capitalized software development costs of $37,244 and $40,235 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Amortization expense on capitalized software included in product cost of sales was $4,543 and $5,369 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $13,467 and $16,620 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Other long-term assets also consist of patents, trademarks and other intangible assets. Where applicable, other assets are stated at cost and, if applicable, are amortized ratably over the relevant contract period or the estimated life of the assets. Fees to renew or extend the term of the Company’s intangible assets are expensed when incurred.

Impairment of long-lived assets is recognized when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the expected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset group, an impairment loss may be recognized at that time to reduce the asset to the lower of its fair value or its net book value.

As of September 30, 2014, the Company had various international short-term uncommitted lines of credit with borrowing limits of $124,096. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowings on the short-term uncommitted lines of credit as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was 2.91 percent and 3.24 percent, respectively. The decrease in the weighted-average interest rate is attributable to the change in mix of borrowings in foreign entities. Short-term uncommitted lines mature in less than one year. The amount available under the short-term uncommitted lines at September 30, 2014 was $41,337.
In August 2014, the Company amended and extended its credit facility. As of September 30, 2014, the Company has increased its borrowing limits under its new credit facility from $500,000 to $520,000. The amended and extended credit facility expires in August 2019 and did not change any of the covenants related to the previous agreement. Under the terms of the amended and extended credit facility, the Company has the ability, subject to various approvals, to increase the borrowing limits by $250,000. Up to $50,000 of the revolving credit facility is available under a swing line sub-facility. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding credit facility borrowings as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was 1.48 percent and 1.36 percent, respectively, which is variable based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The amount available under the credit facility as of September 30, 2014 was $204,987.

In March 2006, the Company issued senior notes in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 with a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 5.50 percent. The Company entered into a derivative transaction to hedge interest rate risk on $200,000 of the senior notes, which was treated as a cash flow hedge. This reduced the effective interest rate from 5.50 percent to 5.36 percent. The Company funded the repayment of $75,000 of the senior notes at maturity in March 2013 using borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The maturity dates of the remaining senior notes are staggered, with $175,000 and $50,000 due in 2016 and 2018, respectively.
In 1997, industrial development revenue bonds were issued on behalf of the Company. The proceeds from the bond issuances were used to construct new manufacturing facilities in the United States. The Company guaranteed the payments of principal and interest on the bonds by obtaining letters of credit. The bonds were issued with a 20-year original term and are scheduled to mature in 2017. Each industrial development revenue bond carries a variable interest rate, which is reset weekly by the remarketing agents. The weighted-average interest rate on the bonds was 0.28 percent and 0.36 percent as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
The Company’s financing agreements contain various restrictive financial covenants, including net debt to capitalization and net interest coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2014, the Company was in compliance with the financial and other covenants in its debt agreements.

NOTE 12: BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has qualified pension plans covering certain U.S. employees that have been closed to new participants since 2003. Plans that cover salaried employees provide pension benefits based on the employee’s compensation during the ten years before retirement. The Company’s funding policy for salaried plans is to contribute annually based on actuarial projections and applicable regulations. Plans covering hourly employees and union members generally provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service. The Company’s funding policy for hourly plans is to make at least the minimum annual contributions required by applicable regulations. Employees of the Company’s operations in countries outside of the United States participate to varying degrees in local pension plans, which in the aggregate are not significant.

The Company has non-qualified pension plans to provide supplemental retirement benefits to certain officers. Benefits are payable at retirement based upon a percentage of the participant’s compensation, as defined.

In July 2013, the Company's board of directors approved freezing certain pension and SERP plan benefits effective as of December 31, 2013 for U.S.-based salaried employees.  The Company recognized the plan freeze in the three months ended September 30, 2013 as a curtailment, since it eliminates for a significant number of participants the accrual of defined benefits for all of their future services.  The impact of the curtailment includes the one-time accelerated recognition of outstanding unamortized pre-tax prior service cost of $809 within general and administrative expense and a pre-tax reduction in AOCI of $52,550, attributable to the decrease in long-term pension liabilities.  This curtailment event triggered a re-measurement for the affected benefit plans as of July 31, 2013 using a discount rate of 5.06 percent.  The process for establishing the discount rate was consistent with the process utilized at our annual plan re-measurement date.  The re-measurement resulted in a further reduction of long-term pension liabilities and AOCI (pre-tax) related to the actuarial gain occurring during the year of $71,008

In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company provides post-retirement healthcare and life insurance benefits (referred to as other benefits) for certain retired employees. Eligible employees may be entitled to these benefits based upon years of service with the Company, age at retirement and collective bargaining agreements. Currently, the Company has made no commitments to increase these benefits for existing retirees or for employees who may become eligible for these benefits in the future. Currently there are no plan assets and the Company funds the benefits as the claims are paid.

Contributions
In the third quarter of 2014, the Company made a voluntary contribution to its qualified pension plan of $5,000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, contributions of $8,674 and $2,662, respectively, were made to the qualified and non-qualified pension plans.

NOTE 13: GUARANTEES AND PRODUCT WARRANTIES
In 1997, industrial development revenue bonds were issued on behalf of the Company. The Company guaranteed the payments of principal and interest on the bonds (refer to note 11) by obtaining letters of credit. The carrying value of the bonds was $11,900 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
The Company provides its global operations guarantees and standby letters of credit through various financial institutions for suppliers, customers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers. If the Company is not able to make payment or fulfill contractual obligations, the suppliers, customers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers may draw on the pertinent bank. At September 30, 2014, the maximum future payment obligations related to these various guarantees totaled $96,534, of which $27,985 represented standby letters of credit to insurance providers, and no associated liability was recorded. At December 31, 2013, the maximum future payment obligations relative to these various guarantees totaled $87,104, of which $26,035 represented standby letters of credit to insurance providers, and no associated liability was recorded.
The Company provides its customers a manufacturer’s warranty and records, at the time of the sale, a corresponding estimated liability for potential warranty costs. Estimated future obligations due to warranty claims are based upon historical factors such as labor rates, average repair time, travel time, number of service calls per machine and cost of replacement parts. As of September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company’s warranty liability balances were $106,977 and $75,487, respectively. The increase in warranty is largely attributable to sales to the education ministry in our Brazil segment.

NOTE 14: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contractual Obligations
At September 30, 2014, the Company had purchase commitments due within one year of $4,807 for materials through contract manufacturing agreements at negotiated prices.

Indirect Tax Contingencies
The Company accrues non income-tax liabilities for indirect tax matters when management believes that a loss is probable and
the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. In the event any losses are
sustained in excess of accruals, they are charged against income. In evaluating indirect tax matters, management takes into consideration factors such as historical experience with matters of similar nature, specific facts and circumstances, and the likelihood of prevailing. Management evaluates and updates accruals as matters progress over time. It is reasonably possible that some of the matters for which accruals have not been established could be decided unfavorably to the Company and could require recognizing future expenditures. Also, statutes of limitations could expire without the Company paying the taxes for matters for which accruals have been established, which could result in the recognition of future gains upon reversal of these accruals at that time.

At September 30, 2014, the Company was a party to several routine indirect tax claims from various taxing authorities globally that were incurred in the normal course of business, none of which individually or in the aggregate is considered material by management in relation to the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In management’s opinion, the condensed consolidated financial statements would not be materially affected by the outcome of these indirect tax claims and/or proceedings or asserted claims.

In addition to these routine indirect tax matters, the Company was a party to the proceedings described below:

In August 2012, one of the Company's Brazilian subsidiaries was notified of a tax assessment of approximately R$270,000, including penalties and interest, regarding certain Brazilian federal indirect taxes (Industrialized Products Tax, Import Tax, Programa de Integração Social and Contribution to Social Security Financing) for 2008 and 2009. The assessment alleges improper importation of certain components into Brazil's free trade zone that would nullify certain indirect tax incentives. On September 10, 2012, the Company filed its administrative defenses with the tax authorities. This proceeding is currently pending an administrative level decision, which could negatively impact Brazilian federal indirect taxes in other years that remain open under statute. It is reasonably possible that the Company could be required to pay taxes, penalties and interest related to this matter, which could be material to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

In response to an order by the administrative court, the tax inspector provided further analysis with respect to the initial assessment in December 2013, which has now been accepted by the initial administrative court, that indicates a potential exposure that is significantly lower than the initial tax assessment received in August 2012. However, this matter remains subject to ongoing administrative proceedings and appeals. Accordingly, the Company cannot provide any assurance that its exposure pursuant to the initial assessment will be lowered significantly or at all. The Company continues to defend itself in the administrative proceedings.

In connection with the Brazilian indirect tax assessment, in May 2013, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)requested that the Company retain certain documents and produce certain records relating to the assessment, to which the Company complied. However, in September 2014, the Company was notified by the SEC that it had closed its inquiry relating to the assessment.

In addition, the Company is challenging a customs ruling in Thailand seeking to retroactively collect customs duties on previous imports of Automated Teller Machines (ATM). Management believes that the customs authority’s attempt to retroactively assess customs duties is in contravention of World Trade Organization agreements and, accordingly, is challenging the ruling. In July 2014, the Central Tax Court in Thailand dismissed the Company’s complaint; however, the Company will be appealing this decision, and management continues to believe that the Company has a valid legal position for supporting its challenge. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued any amount for this contingency; however, the Company cannot provide any assurance that it will not ultimately be subject to a retroactive assessment.

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)


At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had an accrual of approximately $26,000 related to the Brazilian indirect tax matter disclosed above.
A loss contingency is reasonably possible if it has a more than remote but less than probable chance of occurring. Although management believes the Company has valid defenses with respect to its indirect tax positions, it is reasonably possible that a loss could occur in excess of the estimated accrual, for which the Company estimated the aggregate risk at September 30, 2014 to be up to approximately $395,000 for its material indirect tax matters, of which approximately $355,000 and $26,000, respectively, relates to the Brazilian indirect tax matter and Thailand customs matter disclosed above. The aggregate risk related to indirect taxes is adjusted as the applicable statutes of limitations expire.

Legal Contingencies
At September 30, 2014, the Company was a party to several lawsuits that were incurred in the normal course of business, none of which individually or in the aggregate is considered material by management in relation to the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In addition, the Company has indemnification obligations with certain former employees, and costs associated with these indemnifications are expensed as incurred. In management’s opinion, the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements would not be materially affected by the outcome of these legal proceedings, commitments or asserted claims.

NOTE 15: DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company uses derivatives to mitigate the economic consequences associated with fluctuations in currencies and interest rates.
Foreign Exchange
Net Investment Hedges The Company has international subsidiaries with net balance sheet positions that generate cumulative translation adjustments within AOCI. The Company uses derivatives to manage potential changes in value of its net investments in Brazil. The Company uses the forward-to-forward method for its quarterly retrospective and prospective assessments of hedge effectiveness. No ineffectiveness results if the notional amount of the derivative matches the portion of the net investment designated as being hedged because the Company uses derivative instruments with underlying exchange rates consistent with its functional currency and the functional currency of the hedged net investment. Changes in value that are deemed effective are accumulated in AOCI where they will remain until they are reclassified to income together with the gain or loss on the entire investment upon substantial liquidation of the subsidiary. The fair value of the Company’s net investment hedge contracts was $(3,070) and $313 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The net (loss) gain recognized in AOCI on net investment hedge derivative instruments was $(3,750) and $684 in the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $1,745 and $(3,421) in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Non-Designated Hedges A substantial portion of the Company’s operations and revenues are international. As a result, changes in foreign exchange rates can create substantial foreign exchange gains and losses from the revaluation of non-functional currency monetary assets and liabilities. The Company’s policy allows the use of foreign exchange forward contracts with maturities of up to 24 months to mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations on those foreign currency asset and liability balances. The Company elected not to apply hedge accounting to its foreign exchange forward contracts. Thus, spot-based gains/losses offset revaluation gains/losses within foreign exchange gain (loss), net and forward-based gains/losses represent interest expense. The fair value of the Company’s non-designated foreign exchange forward contracts was $8,041 and $705 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
The following table summarizes the gain (loss) recognized on non-designated foreign-exchange derivative instruments for the three and nine months ended September 30:

Interest Rate
Cash Flow Hedges The Company has variable rate debt that is subject to fluctuations in interest related cash flows due to changes in market interest rates. The Company’s policy allows derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges that fix a portion of future variable-rate interest expense. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had two pay-fixed receive-variable interest rate swaps, with a total notional amount of $50,000, to hedge against changes in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate on a portion of the Company’s LIBOR-based borrowings. Changes in value that are deemed effective are accumulated in AOCI and reclassified to interest expense when the hedged interest is accrued. To the extent that it becomes probable that the Company’s variable rate borrowings will not occur, the gains or losses on the related cash flow hedges will be reclassified from AOCI to interest expense. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate contracts was $(1,478) and $(2,351) as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
In December 2005 and January 2006, the Company executed cash flow hedges by entering into receive-variable and pay-fixed interest rate swaps, with a total notional amount of $200,000, related to the senior notes issuance in March 2006. Amounts previously recorded in AOCI related to the pre-issuance cash flow hedges will continue to be reclassified on a straight-line basis through February 2016.

The gain recognized on designated cash flow hedge derivative instruments was $350 and $101 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $841 and $935 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Gains and losses related to interest rate contracts that are reclassified from AOCI are recorded in interest expense on the statements of operations. The Company anticipates reclassifying $930 from AOCI to interest expense within the next 12 months.

During the first quarter of 2013, the Company announced a multi-year realignment plan. Certain aspects of this plan were previously disclosed under the Company's global realignment plan and global shared services plan. This multi-year realignment focuses on globalizing the Company's service organization and creating a unified center-led global organization for research and development, as well as transforming the Company's general and administrative cost structure. Restructuring charges of $928 and $4,346 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $6,761 and $21,404 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, related to the Company's multi-year realignment plan. Restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily related to a business process outsourcing initiative. As of September 30, 2014, the Company anticipates additional restructuring costs of $4,000 to $6,000 to be incurred through the end of 2014, primarily within NA and EMEA. The Company anticipates additional cost in the multi-year realignment plan through at least 2015. As management finalizes certain aspects of the realignment plan, the anticipated future costs related to this plan are subject to change. As of September 30, 2014, cumulative total restructuring costs for the multi-year realignment plan were $64,218, $2,425, $5,534, $1,694 and $8,635 in NA, AP, EMEA, LA and Brazil, respectively.

Impairment and Other Charges

During the third quarter of 2013, the Company recorded a $70,000 pre-tax, non-cash goodwill impairment charge related to its
Brazil segment (refer to note 10).
Other charges consist of items that the Company has determined are non-routine in nature and are not expected to recur in future operations. Net non-routine expenses of $(3,546) and $(3,953) impacted the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Net non-routine income (expenses) of $7,528 and $(57,697) impacted the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Non-routine income for the first nine months of 2014 related primarily to a $13,709 pre-tax gain from the sale of the Eras, recognized in gain on sale of assets, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Non-routine expenses for the first nine months of 2013 included $28,000 of additional pre-tax losses related to the settlement of the global Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) investigation, a $17,245 pre-tax charge related to settlement of the securities legal action

and executive severance costs, including accelerated share-based compensation expense of $2,982 (pre-tax) all recognized in selling and administrative expense, partially offset by non-routine income of $2,191 related to a pre-tax gain from the sale of certain U.S. manufacturing operations to a long-time supplier recognized in gain on sale of assets, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 17: FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities using one or more of the following three valuation techniques:
Market approach – Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.
Cost approach – Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).
Income approach – Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based upon market expectations.
The hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value is divided into three levels:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data.
 
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 in its entirety.
Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value
Assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurement are as follows:

The Company uses the end of period when determining the timing of transfers between levels. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, there were no transfers between levels.
Short-Term Investments The Company has investments in certificates of deposit that are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value. Additionally, the Company has investments in U.S. dollar indexed bond funds that are classified as available-for-sale and stated at fair value. U.S. dollar indexed bond funds are reported at net asset value, which is the practical expedient for fair value as determined by banks where funds are held.

Assets Held in Rabbi Trusts / Deferred Compensation The fair value of the assets held in rabbi trusts (refer to note 7) are derived from investments in a mix of money market, fixed income and equity funds managed by Bank of America/Merrill Lynch. The related deferred compensation liability is recorded at fair value.
Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts A substantial portion of the Company’s operations and revenues are international. As a result, changes in foreign exchange rates can create substantial foreign exchange gains and losses from the revaluation of non-functional currency monetary assets and liabilities. The foreign exchange contracts are valued using the market approach based on observable market transactions of forward rates.
Interest Rate Swaps The Company has variable rate debt and is subject to fluctuations in interest-related cash flows due to changes in market interest rates. The Company’s policy allows it to periodically enter into derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges to fix some portion of future variable rate-based interest expense. The Company executed two pay-fixed receive-variable interest rate swap to hedge against changes in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate on a portion of the Company’s LIBOR-based borrowings. The fair value of the swap is determined using the income approach and is calculated based on LIBOR rates at the reporting date.
Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
In addition to assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company also measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Our non-financial assets, including goodwill, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, are measured at fair value when there is an indication of impairment. These assets are recorded at fair value, determined using level 3 inputs, only when an impairment charge is recognized.
Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Carrying Value
The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and accounts payable, approximates the carrying value due to the relative short maturity of these instruments.
The fair value and carrying value of the Company’s debt instruments are summarized as follows:

The fair value of the Company’s industrial development revenue bonds are measured using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets categorized as level 1 inputs. The fair value of the Company’s current notes payable and credit facility debt instruments approximates the carrying value due to the relative short maturity of the revolving borrowings under these instruments. The fair values of the Company’s long-term senior notes were estimated using market observable inputs for the Company’s comparable peers with public debt, including quoted prices in active markets, market indices and interest rate measurements, considered level 2 inputs.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes that appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form10-Q.
Introduction
Diebold, Incorporated and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) is a global leader in providing integrated services and software, financial self-service (FSS) delivery and security systems to primarily the financial, commercial, retail and other markets. Founded in 1859, the Company currently has approximately 16,000 employees with representation in more than 90 countries worldwide. The Company unveiled its multi-year turnaround strategy, Diebold 2.0, at the Investment Community Conference in November 2013. The objective of Diebold 2.0 is to transform the Company into a world-class, services-led and software enabled provider of secure, convenient and efficient solutions for its customers. The turnaround strategy will follow a “Crawl, Walk, Run” approach, which requires the core business operations to be stabilized in the “Crawl” phase and build the foundation for future growth in the “Walk” and “Run” phases. Four core pillars provide the Company a clear path toward reaching this multi-year objective:
Reduce its cost structure and improve its near-term delivery and execution.
Generate increased free cash flow in order to fund the investments necessary to drive profitable growth, while preserving the ability to return value to shareholders in the form of reliable dividends and, as appropriate, share repurchases.
Attract and retain the talent necessary to drive innovation and the focused execution of the transformation strategy.
Return the Company to a sustainable, profitable growth trajectory.
The Company sees opportunities to leverage its capabilities in services, software and innovation to meet the needs of its rapidly evolving markets. The Company has sharpened its focus on executing its core strategies in FSS and electronic security. This includes making the appropriate investments to deliver growth within these areas, especially in research, development and engineering expense. In addition, the Company remains committed to a disciplined risk assessment process, focused on proactively identifying and mitigating potential risks to the Company's continued success.

Diebold 2.0 - Turnaround Strategy
Diebold 2.0 is built on four core pillars: cost, cash, talent and growth. Underpinned by the four core pillars, the turnaround strategy encompasses eight specific actions to achieve top-tier performance and generate sustainable, profitable growth.

Eight-Point Program:
1.
Establish a Competitive Cost Structure
Reducing the Company’s fixed cost envelope and driving operational rigor is fundamental. The $150,000 multi-year realignment plan launched in 2013 will drive efficiency while reducing general and administrative costs and the cost of goods sold.
2.
Drive Sustainable Improvement in Cash Flow
The Company is committed to improving cash generation in order to increase shareholder value and fuel the investments necessary to grow the business. An emphasis on working capital improvements and cash generation now extends far beyond the finance organization - it is a main-stage requirement in every operation in every region.
3.
Improve Sales Effectiveness
The Company’s sales teams must enhance skills, tools and coverage to reach more prospects more effectively. For example, the global deployment of Salesforce.com will enhance the ability to plan, forecast and allocate resources more productively.
4.
Increase Speed and Agility
Streamlining the management structure will drive greater accountability, accelerate decision-making and facilitate the transition to a truly global business. Change is being viewed as an enabler of progress and not as a disrupter.
5.
Instill a Winning Culture Grounded in Execution
The message being driven to every member of the organization: The Company is not merely to participate in a market, but to succeed, and win through a culture built upon accountability and execution. As an example, the Company has taken steps to better align employee compensation with Company performance.

6.
Collaborate With Customers and Partners to Drive Innovative Solutions
The Company must accelerate new ideas through teamwork with capable partners and collaboration with customers. For example, the India-originated Diebold 429 Automated Teller Machine (ATM) solution reduced development time and costs while at the same time meeting defined market needs.
7.
Further Leverage Services and Software
The Company expects the commoditization of hardware to continue, the size and importance of the software stack to increase, and our expertise in services and system integration to be a key differentiator. The objective is to further expand the percentage of sales derived from services and software, which is expected to exceed 60 percent during the transformation.
8.
Generate Long-Term, Profitable Growth
The seven actions defined above are designed to put the Company on a sustainable, profitable growth trajectory. A commitment to operational rigor, improved analytics and data-driven decision-making is expected to position the Company to benefit from secular trends in outsourcing and mobility, expand its electronic security business and drive both organic and inorganic growth.

As part of the transformation, the Company engaged Accenture to provide finance and accounting, human resources and procurement business process outsourcing services. The Company's multi-year outsourcing agreement focuses on creating one global delivery model that enhances the quality, controls and efficiency of the Company’s integrated global business processes. The Company plans to utilize Accenture’s industry leading practices, technologies and global delivery network to establish more synchronized operational controls, improve operational transparency, lower spending and reduce costs. Reinvestment of the Company's savings into transformation initiatives with Accenture were marginal in the first half of 2014 and have increased in the third quarter of 2014.
Solutions
The Company leverages its strong base of maintenance and advanced services to deliver comprehensive outsourcing and managed services. Banks are continuously being challenged to reduce costs while increasing operational efficiencies. Through outsourced services, banks entrust the management of their ATM and security operations to the Company, allowing their staffs to focus on core competencies. Furthermore, the Company's outsourcing and managed services offering provides banks and credit unions with the leading-edge technology they need to stay competitive in the marketplace. As a leader in outsourcing services, the Company is poised to capitalize on the secular outsourcing trends in the marketplace. Several years ago, the Company launched its outsourcing and managed services business in North America and has grown this business from $5,000 to over $200,000 in annual revenue with over 22,500 units under contract.

Another demand driver in the global ATM marketplace is branch transformation. The concept of branch transformation is to help financial institutions reduce their costs by migrating routine transactions, typically done inside the branch, to lower-cost automated channels, including the ATM as well as adding convenience and additional security for the banks' customers. One area of branch transformation that continues to gain traction is deposit automation. Among the largest U.S. national banks, there has been extensive deployment of deposit automation-enabled terminals. Today, approximately 25 percent of ATMs globally are configured for automated deposits.
Another solution the Company offers as part of its branch transformation efforts is Concierge Video Services™, most recently launched in North America. The solution provides consumers with on-demand access to bank call center representatives right at the ATM for sales or bank account maintenance support. In addition to delivering a personal touch outside of regular business hours, Concierge Video Services™ ultimately assists financial institutions by maximizing operational efficiencies, improving the consumer experience and enhancing the overall consumer relationship.
Mobile integration is another emerging trend in the FSS space, as consumers look for multiple ways to interact with their financial institutions. In July 2013, Diebold introduced its cardless Mobile Cash Access solution, which allows consumers to stage a transaction with their mobile device and complete it at the ATM without the need for a card. This capability provides consumers with a more convenient and secure option, while giving financial institutions the opportunity to offer their own branded mobile wallet solution.
A new technology that enhances security for customers is Diebold’s ActivEdge card reader. This is the ATM industry's first complete anti-skimming card reader that prevents all known forms of skimming, the most prevalent type of ATM crime, as well

as other forms of ATM fraud. ActivEdge can help financial institutions avoid skimming-related fraud losses which, according to the ATM Industry Association, total more than $2 billion annually worldwide. ActivEdge requires users to insert cards into the reader via the long edge, instead of the traditional short edge. We believe by shifting a card's angle 90 degrees, ActivEdge prevents modern skimming devices from reading the card's full magnetic strip, eliminating the devices' ability to steal card data.

Another opportunity for a successful outsourcing and managed services approach relates to security challenges and the systems to address them, which have grown increasingly complex. This has created a strong business case among financial institutions and commercial customers for outsourcing and managed service solutions, particularly in the areas of monitoring, services and software management. Today, the Company is bringing its expertise back into the financial sector and pursuing other areas, namely the commercial market, with a focused effort to secure large, complex and technologically demanding projects. The Company has customer-focused teams that possess high levels of logical and enterprise security expertise that are required in this business. The Company is also leveraging best practices and some of the best talent to continue building upon its security outsourcing and managed services business.

As it relates to security, the Company recently introduced a new online security management tool in North America, called SecureStat®, that streamlines how customers manage their security operations. At the core of the solution is a personalized dashboard that utilizes customizable, distinct widgets to provide a snapshot of a user's entire security platform, including locations, security systems and devices. In addition, SecureStat® can unify security services and disparate systems, while providing a single interface for real-time administration of security operations across an enterprise. SecureStat® is a great example of the software-driven platforms the Company is investing in to strengthen its services offering and differentiate itself in the marketplace.

Moving forward, the Company intends to create shareholder value by leveraging the opportunities it sees within the area of branch transformation, growing its services, outsourcing and software capabilities, further building out its electronic security business and taking advantage of key commercial trends around the world. Many opportunities lie ahead, and the Company will continue to invest in developing new services, software and security solutions that align with the needs of its core markets.
Multi-Year Realignment Plan

The Company is committed to its previously announced multi-year realignment plan aimed at establishing a competitive cost structure throughout the organization. The Company has currently identified targeted savings of $150,000 that are expected to be fully realized by the end of 2015 and is working to accelerate the cost savings efforts beyond this target longer term. The Company expects to reinvest a portion of the savings to drive long-term growth. Areas of reinvestment include: research and development of innovative new customer solutions; improving and updating the Company's information technology systems and infrastructure; transforming the general and administrative back-office functions; and strengthening sales coverage and marketing, processes and tools. In addition, some of the savings should offset price erosion, wage inflation in emerging markets and volatile commodity prices in the Company’s core business. Given these factors, the Company anticipates that approximately 50 percent of the savings will positively impact operating profit. In addition to the cost savings impact, the Company expects that the plan will enhance its competitive position by focusing on globalizing the Company's service organization, creating a unified center-led global organization for research and development as well as transforming the Company's general and administrative cost structure. Restructuring charges associated with the multi-year realignment plan were $928 and $4,346 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Restructuring charges associated with the multi-year realignment plan were $6,761 and $21,404 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Restructuring charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily related to severance costs of employees due to the Company's business process outsourcing initiative with Accenture.

Business Drivers

The business drivers of the Company's future performance include, but are not limited to:
• timing of self-service equipment upgrades and/or replacement cycles, including deposit automation in mature markets such as the United States;
• demand for products and solutions related to bank branch transformation opportunities;
• demand for services, including outsourcing and managed services;
• demand for security products and services for the financial and commercial sectors; and
• high levels of deployment growth for new self-service products in emerging markets, such as Asia Pacific.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS as of September 30, 2014
DIEBOLD, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
(unaudited)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income attributable to Diebold, Incorporated for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $33,020 or $0.51 per share, an increase of $54,710 and $0.85 per share, respectively, from the same period in 2013. Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $768,031, an increase of $62,607 compared to the same period in 2013. Net income attributable to Diebold, Incorporated for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $84,461 or $1.30 per share, an increase of $224,632 and $3.50 per share, respectively, from the same period in 2013. Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $2,189,781, an increase of $143,733 compared to the same period in 2013.
The first nine months of 2014 included a $13,709 pre-tax gain from the sale of the Company's Diebold Eras, Incorporated (Eras) subsidiary. Cryptera A/S (Cryptera) was acquired for a purchase price of approximately $13,000 and is included in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) segment within the Company' s condensed consolidated financial statements from July 1, 2014, the date of acquisition.
The first nine months of 2013 included $28,000 of pre-tax losses related to the settlement of the global Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) investigation, a $17,245 pre-tax charge related to settlement of the securities legal action and executive severance costs, including accelerated share-based compensation expense of $2,982 (pre-tax) all recognized in selling and administrative expense, partially offset by non-routine income of $2,191 related to a pre-tax gain from the sale of certain U.S. manufacturing operations to a long-time supplier recognized in gain on sale of assets, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company also recorded a $70,000 pre-tax, non-cash goodwill impairment charge related to its Brazil segment in the third quarter of 2013 in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Company's Venezuelan operations consist of a fifty-percent owned subsidiary, which is consolidated. Venezuela is measured using the U.S. dollar as its functional currency because its economy is considered highly inflationary. On March 24, 2014, the Venezuelan government announced a currency exchange mechanism, SICAD 2, which yielded an exchange rate significantly higher than the rates established through the other regulated exchange mechanisms. Management has determined that it is unlikely that the Company will be able to convert bolivars under a currency exchange other than SICAD 2. On March 31, 2014, the Company remeasured its Venezuelan balance sheet using the SICAD 2 rate of 50.86 compared to the previous official government rate of 6.30, resulting in a decrease of $6,051 to the Company’s cash balance and net losses of $12,101 that were recorded within foreign exchange gain (loss), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2014. In addition, as a result of the currency devaluation, the Company recorded a $4,073 lower of cost or market adjustment related to its service inventory within service cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2014. In the future, if the Company converts bolivars at a rate other than the SICAD 2 rate, the Company may realize additional gains or losses that would be recorded in the statement of operations. The Company's Venezuelan operations represented less than one percent of the Company's total assets as of September 30, 2014 and less than one percent of net sales for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The Company does not expect its Venezuelan operations to be a significant component of its consolidated revenue or operating profit for the remainder of 2014.
The following discussion of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations provides information that will assist in understanding the financial statements and the changes in certain key items in those financial statements. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes that appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

FSS sales in the third quarter of 2014 increased $25,214 or 4.8 percent compared to the same period of 2013, including net unfavorable currency impact of $2,941 or 0.6 percent. FSS sales in the first nine months of 2014 were flat compared to the same period of 2013, including net unfavorable currency impact of $30,617 or 2.0 percent related mainly to the Brazilian real and Indian rupee. The following results include the impact of foreign currency:

North America (NA) FSS sales in the third quarter of 2014 were flat compared to the prior year comparable period. FSS sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 decreased $53,407 or 7.9 percent primarily from lower volume within the U.S. national bank business due in part to a large non-recurring project that favorably impacted 2013, partially offset by improvement between years in the U.S. regional bank space.

Asia Pacific (AP) FSS sales in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased $14,760 and $13,928 or 13.2 and 4.2 percent, respectively, due to growth in China. FSS sales in the first nine months of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 also benefited from improvement in India partially offset by a decline in Indonesia due to a large order in the prior year.
 
Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) FSS sales in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased $18,262 and $70,094 or 22.4 and 30.2 percent, respectively, with the primary driver being growth in Western Europe. The increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 also related to higher volume in Africa.

Latin America (LA) FSS sales in the third quarter of 2014 were flat compared to the prior year comparable period. The nine months ended September 30, 2014 decreased $3,232 or 2.6 percent compared to the same period of 2013 because

of a decline in Venezuela resulting from the currency control policy of the Venezuelan government and a decline in Colombia partially offset by higher volume in Mexico.

Brazil FSS sales in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 decreased $8,978 and $24,160 or 14.2 and 12.7 percent, respectively, due to lower product sales volume. Brazil FSS sales in the first nine months of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 included net unfavorable currency impact of $14,385 or 7.2 percent.
 
Security sales increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 due to growth in the electronic security business, which was partially offset by a decline in the physical security business. From a regional perspective, total security sales increased in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 due to growth in AP and NA partially offset by a decrease in LA resulting from the electronic security business. In the first nine months of 2014, total security sales increased in relation to the prior year comparable period as growth in NA was offset in part by a decrease in LA resulting from the electronic security business.
 
Brazil other increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 due to lottery sales volume offset in part by a decline in election systems sales. In addition, the first nine months of 2014 were favorably impacted by deliveries of information technology (IT) equipment to the education ministry. These deliveries are not expected to recur in 2015.

The increases in service gross margin in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 were primarily driven by NA, which benefited from lower employee-related expense associated with restructuring initiatives implemented as part of the Company’s service transformation efforts, including the ongoing benefit from its pension freeze and voluntary early retirement program. Total service gross margin in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 were also favorably impacted by a higher net margin among the international regions, with the main drivers being LA and EMEA in the third quarter of 2014 while Brazil was the principal contributor in the first nine months of 2014. Service gross profit included total restructuring charges and non-routine expenses of $514 and $2,378 in the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $1,353 and $9,815 in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The increase in product gross margin for the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 resulted mainly from margin improvements in LA partially driven by Mexico and EMEA largely due to higher volume and product mix. Product gross margin for the first nine months of 2014 was flat compared to the prior year comparable period.

The increase in selling and administrative expense in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 resulted primarily from reinvestment of the Company’s savings into transformation initiatives. The decrease in selling and administrative expense in the first nine months of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 resulted primarily from lower non-routine expenses and restructuring charges of $57,526 coupled with favorable currency impact partially offset by reinvestment of the Company’s savings into transformation initiatives.

Selling and administrative expense included non-routine expenses of $3,547 and $3,700 in the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $6,182 and $59,699 in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The primary components of non-routine expenses in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were additional charges of $28,000 related to the settlement of the FCPA investigation and $17,500 for the settlement of the securities legal action. Additionally, the non-routine expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 included executive severance costs of $9,300. Selling and administrative expense included restructuring charges of $414 and $1,859 in the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $5,365 and $9,374 in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Research, development and engineering expense as a percent of net sales in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 were 3.2 percent and 3.0 percent, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2013, which were 3.1 percent and 3.2 percent, respectively. The increase in research, development and engineering costs in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the third quarter of 2013 resulted mainly from higher spend related to development efforts to support the Company's innovation in future products and services combined with the acquisition of Cryptera in the third quarter of 2014. The first nine months of 2013 included restructuring charges of $2,617.
The Company recorded a $70,000 pre-tax, non-cash goodwill impairment charge in the third quarter of 2013 due to deteriorating macro-economic outlook, structural changes to an auction-based purchasing environment and new competitors entering the market over the past several quarters, management reduced its earnings outlook for the Brazil business unit during the third quarter of 2013. As a result, the Company performed an other-than-annual assessment for its Brazil reporting unit based on a two-step impairment test and concluded that the goodwill within the Brazil reporting unit was partially impaired.
During the second quarter of 2014, the Company divested Eras, resulting in a gain on sale of assets of $13,709. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company recognized a gain on assets of $2,191 resulting from the sale of certain U.S. manufacturing operations to a long-time supplier.

The increase in investment income in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared with the same periods in 2013 was driven by Brazil due to leasing portfolio growth. The foreign exchange loss, net for the first nine months of 2014 and 2013 included $12,101 and $1,584, respectively, related to the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency.

The increase in net income in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 was driven by higher operating profit related mainly to significantly lower non-routine expense, an improvement in service margin and higher product sales. These benefits were offset in part by higher spend partially attributable to reinvestment of the Company’s savings into transformation initiatives. In addition, the third quarter of 2014 was unfavorably impacted by higher income taxes compared to the same period of 2013, whereas the first nine months of 2014 benefited from lower taxes compared to the same period in 2013.
The effective tax rate on income was 27.0 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and the effective tax rate on the loss was 28.2 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The third quarter 2014 rate was lower than the statutory rate because of earnings in lower-tax jurisdictions and tax benefits from discrete items recorded in the quarter. The reduced third quarter 2013 tax rate differed from the statutory rate mainly as a result of the non-deductible portion of the Company's Brazil goodwill impairment recorded during a quarter with overall losses.
The effective tax rate on income was 31.3 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the effective tax rate on the loss was (95.3) percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 includes a benefit from the release of a valuation allowance against excess capital losses offset by the negative impact of tax on foreign entities not permanently reinvested and the December 31, 2013 expiration of the Federal Research and Development Tax Credit and the Look-Thru Rule for Related Controlled Foreign Corporations under Section 954(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The negative tax rate for 2013 was a result of several factors, including tax expense related to the repatriation of previously undistributed earnings and the establishment of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in the Company’s Brazilian manufacturing facility.

NA revenue increased in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 due to higher electronic security sales partially offset by a decrease in the physical security business. Operating profit increased due to an improvement in service margin and higher service revenue partially offset by an increase in operating expense resulting mainly from higher commission expense and additional sales associates. The service margin increase was primarily driven by lower employee-related expense resulting from restructuring initiatives in addition to the ongoing benefit from the Company's pension freeze and voluntary early retirement program.

NA revenue decreased in the first nine months of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 due to lower FSS sales resulting from decreased product volume in the U.S. national bank sector partially due to the beneficial impact of a large non-recurring project in the prior year. NA revenue also declined due to lower physical security sales between years offset by higher electronic security revenue. Operating profit increased despite the net sales decline due to an improvement in service margin primarily driven by lower employee-related expense resulting from restructuring initiatives in addition to the ongoing benefit from the Company's pension freeze and voluntary early retirement program.

AP revenue in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 included net unfavorable currency impacts of $410 and $12,398, respectively. Including the impact of foreign currency, revenue in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 increased due primarily to growth in China. For the first nine months of 2014, revenue increased mainly from growth in India and China partially offset by a decrease in Indonesia because of a large order in the comparable period of 2013. Operating profit in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 increased due to higher volume and improved service margin performance partially offset by a decline in product gross margin and higher operating expense. Operating profit in the first nine months of 2014 also increased from the comparable period in 2013 for these reasons with the exception of a reduction in operating expense.

EMEA revenue in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased primarily from higher sales volume in Western Europe while the first nine months of 2014 experienced growth from increased sales in Africa. The overall volume increase contributed to the operating profit improvement in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the comparable prior periods in 2013, combined with a gain in product gross margin due to higher volume and product mix partially offset by

LA revenue decreased in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 due to a decline in the electronic security business. LA revenue decreased in the first nine months of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 due to a decline in sales concentrated mainly in Colombia and Venezuela, partially offset by FSS growth in Mexico. The Venezuela decrease resulted principally from the adverse impact of currency control policy measures instituted by the Venezuelan government. Operating profit in the third quarter in 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 increased mainly due to higher total gross margin partially offset by lower service revenue primarily resulting from the Venezuelan currency devaluation. For the first nine months of 2014 compared to the first nine months of 2013, operating profit was negatively impacted by lower total revenue as well as higher operating expense partially offset by an increase in product gross margin. Service margin was flat year over year despite a lower of cost or market adjustment of $4,073 in the first nine months of 2014 as a result of the Venezuelan currency devaluation.

Brazil revenue increased in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 due to lottery sales volume partially offset by a decline in FSS revenue and election systems sales. Brazil revenue increased in the first nine months of 2014 compared to same period of 2013, including a net unfavorable currency impact of $17,203. The constant currency revenue improvement related to lottery sales volume and deliveries of IT equipment to the education ministry in the first quarter of 2014 partially offset by a decrease in elections systems sales and FSS volume. Operating profit increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 as a result of the higher product sales volume offset by an increase in operating expenses mainly due to higher employee-related expense and consulting fees. Operating profit in the first nine months also benefited from service margin improvement related to cost savings initiatives.

Refer to note 18 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details of segment revenue and operating profit.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Capital resources are obtained from income retained in the business, borrowings under the Company’s senior notes, committed and uncommitted credit facilities, long-term industrial revenue bonds and operating and capital leasing arrangements. Management expects that the Company’s capital resources will be sufficient to finance planned working capital needs, research and development activities, investments in facilities or equipment, pension contributions, the payment of dividends on the Company’s common shares and any repurchases of the Company’s common shares for at least the next 12 months. As of September 30, 2014, $370,900 or 99.1 percent of the Company's cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments reside in international tax jurisdictions. Repatriation of these funds could be negatively impacted by potential payments for foreign and domestic taxes. The Company has $134,383 that is available for repatriation with no additional tax expense as the Company has already provided for such taxes. Part of the Company’s growth strategy is to pursue strategic acquisitions. The Company has made acquisitions in the past and intends to make acquisitions in the future. The Company intends to finance any future acquisitions with either cash and short-term investments, cash provided from operations, borrowings under available credit facilities, proceeds from debt or equity offerings and/or the issuance of common shares.

Net cash used in operating activities was $110,735 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $51,693 from $59,042 for the same period in 2013. Cash flows from operating activities are generated primarily from operating income and managing the components of working capital. Cash flows from operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to the same period of 2013, were positively impacted by a $220,900 increase in net income. Cash flows from operating activities are also impacted by changes in the components of our working capital, which vary based on normal activities with our customers and vendors. As compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013, cash flow during the corresponding period in 2014 was adversely impacted by an increase in our trade receivables of $122,921, which results, in part to growth in our revenue. Trade receivables as of December 31, 2013, were down $41,134 compared to December 31, 2012, as a result of strong cash collections in the fourth quarter of 2013. The cash flow effect of the change in inventories corresponds with the change in accounts payable. This change is a result of our investment in inventory to support planned customer demand. The cash flow impact associated with deferred revenue largely represents prepayments received on service contracts and product sales. Finance lease receivables increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily due to increases in customer financing arrangements mostly in Brazil.
Net cash provided by investing activities was $64,986 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $13,694 for the same period in 2013. The $51,292 change was mostly related to a $67,547 increase in net investment activity primarily in Brazil to fund our finance leasing arrangement with the Brazilian education ministry, an increase of $13,327 in proceeds from the sale of assets primarily related to the sale of Eras in the second quarter of 2014 and a decrease of $11,749 relating to cash payments for the Cryptera acquisition.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $69,427 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $117,409 for the same period in 2013. The change was primarily due to a $177,453 change in debt repayments and borrowings year over year and $4,176 in issuances of common shares related to share-based compensation activity.
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents was negatively impacted by $6,051 related to the currency devaluation in Venezuela for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
As of September 30, 2014, the Company had various international short-term uncommitted lines of credit with borrowing limits of $124,096. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowings on the short-term uncommitted lines of credit as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was 2.91 percent and 3.24 percent, respectively. The decrease in the weighted-average interest rate is attributable to the change in mix of borrowings in foreign entities. Short-term uncommitted lines mature in less than one year. The amount available under the short-term uncommitted lines at September 30, 2014 was $41,337.

In August 2014, the Company amended and extended its credit facility. As of September 30, 2014, the Company has increased its borrowing limits under its new credit facility from $500,000 to $520,000. The amended and extended credit facility expires in August 2019 and did not change any of the covenants related to the previous agreement. Under the terms of the amended and extended credit facility, the Company has the ability, subject to various approvals, to increase the borrowing limits by $250,000. Up to $50,000 of the revolving credit facility is available under a swing line sub-facility. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding credit facility borrowings as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was 1.48 percent and 1.36 percent, respectively, which is variable based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The amount available under the credit facility as of September 30, 2014 was $204,987.

In March 2006, the Company issued senior notes in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 with a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 5.50 percent. The Company entered into a derivative transaction to hedge interest rate risk on $200,000 of the senior notes, which was treated as a cash flow hedge. This reduced the effective interest rate from 5.50 percent to 5.36 percent. The Company funded the repayment of $75,000 of the senior notes at maturity in March 2013 using borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The maturity dates of the remaining senior notes are staggered, with $175,000 and $50,000 due in 2016 and 2018, respectively.
In 1997, industrial development revenue bonds were issued on behalf of the Company. The proceeds from the bond issuances were used to construct new manufacturing facilities in the United States. The Company guaranteed the payments of principal and interest on the bonds by obtaining letters of credit. The bonds were issued with a 20-year original term and are scheduled to mature in 2017. Each industrial development revenue bond carries a variable interest rate, which is reset weekly by the remarketing agents. The weighted-average interest rate on the bonds was 0.28 percent and 0.36 percent as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
The Company’s financing agreements contain various restrictive financial covenants, including net debt to capitalization and net interest coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2014, the Company was in compliance with the financial and other covenants in its debt agreements.
Dividends The Company paid dividends of $56,193 and $55,469 in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Quarterly dividends were $0.2875 per share for both periods.
Contractual Obligations In the first nine months of 2014, the Company entered into purchase commitments due within one year for materials through contract manufacturing agreements for a total negotiated price. As of September 30, 2014, these additional contracts have remaining obligations of $764.
Except for the contract manufacturing agreements noted above, all contractual cash obligations with initial and remaining terms in excess of one year and contingent liabilities remained generally unchanged at September 30, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements The Company enters into various arrangements not recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that have or could have an effect on its financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. The principal off-balance sheet arrangements that the Company enters into are guarantees, operating leases and sales of finance receivables. The Company provides its global operations guarantees and standby letters of credit through various financial institutions to suppliers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers. If the Company is not able to make payment, the suppliers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers may draw on the pertinent bank. Refer to note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details of guarantees. The Company has sold finance receivables to financial institutions while continuing to service the receivables. The Company records these sales by removing finance receivables from the condensed consolidated balance sheets and recording gains and losses in the condensed consolidated statements of income.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include revenue recognition, the valuation of trade, finance lease receivables, inventories, goodwill, intangible assets, other long-lived assets, legal contingencies, guarantee obligations and assumptions used in the calculation of income taxes, pension and post-retirement benefits and customer incentives, among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best

estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors. Management monitors the economic conditions and other factors and will adjust such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.
Management believes there have been no significant changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 to the items that the Company disclosed as its critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
 
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT DISCLOSURE
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, statements that are not reported financial results or other historical information are “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements give current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance. These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, the Company's future operating performance, the Company's share of new and existing markets, the Company's short- and long-term revenue and earnings growth rates, and the Company's implementation of cost-reduction initiatives and measures to improve pricing, including the optimization of the Company's manufacturing capacity.

Some of the risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
competitive pressures, including pricing pressures and technological developments;
changes in the Company's relationships with customers, suppliers, distributors and/or partners in its business ventures;
changes in political, economic or other factors such as currency exchange rates, inflation rates, recessionary or expansive trends, taxes and regulations and laws affecting the worldwide business in each of the Company's operations, including Brazil, where a significant portion of the Company's revenue is derived;
global economic conditions, including any additional deterioration and disruption in the financial markets, including the bankruptcies, restructurings or consolidations of financial institutions, which could reduce the Company's customer base and/or adversely affect its customers' ability to make capital expenditures, as well as adversely impact the availability and cost of credit;
acceptance of the Company's product and technology introductions in the marketplace;
the Company's ability to maintain effective internal controls;
changes in the Company's intention to further repatriate cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments residing in international tax jurisdictions, which could negatively impact foreign and domestic taxes;

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's Venezuelan operations consist of a fifty-percent owned subsidiary, which is consolidated. Venezuela is measured using the U.S. dollar as its functional currency because its economy is considered highly inflationary. On March 24, 2014, the Venezuelan government announced a currency exchange mechanism, SICAD 2, which yielded an exchange rate significantly higher than the rates established through the other regulated exchange mechanisms. Management has determined that it is unlikely that the Company will be able to convert bolivars under a currency exchange other than SICAD 2. On March 31, 2014, the Company remeasured its Venezuelan balance sheet using the SICAD 2 rate of 50.86 compared to the previous official government rate of 6.3, resulting in a decrease of $6,051 to the Company’s cash balance and net losses of $12,101 that were recorded within foreign exchange gain (loss), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2014. In addition, as a result of the currency devaluation, the Company recorded a $4,073 lower of cost or market adjustment related to its service inventory within service cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2014. In the future, if the Company converts bolivars at a rate other than the SICAD 2 rate, the Company may realize additional gains or losses that would be recorded in the statements of operations. The Company's Venezuelan operations represented less than one percent of the Company's total assets as of September 30, 2014 and less than one percent of net sales for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The Company does not expect its Venezuelan operations to be a significant component of its consolidated revenue or operating profit for the remainder of 2014.
Refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Except for the currency devaluation noted above, there have been no material changes in this information since December 31, 2013.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
This Quarterly Report includes the certifications of our chief executive officer (CEO) and chief financial officer (CFO) required by Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act). See Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2. This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and control evaluations referred to in those certifications.
Based on the performance of procedures by management, designed to ensure the reliability of financial reporting, management believes that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods presented. Refer to note 1 in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report, management, under the supervision and with the participation of the CEO and CFO, conducted an evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2014 due to the material weakness described below.

A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified the following material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2014:

India System Adoption and Account Reconciliation Process: The Company concluded that controls pertaining to the reconciliation process that could materially impact financial reporting in its Indian subsidiary were not operating effectively because of the lack of full adoption of revised processes necessitated by a newly implemented enterprise resource planning system.

Because of the material weakness identified above, a reasonable possibility exists that a material misstatement in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As previously reported under “Item 4 - Controls and Procedures” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the material weakness related to controls over Brazil indirect taxes and communication. Management believes it has remediated this material weakness since the filing of that report.

Controls over Brazil Indirect Taxes and Communication: As of September 30, 2014, the Company’s management believes that there is sufficient support to conclude that the previously reported material weakness related to internal controls over Brazil indirect taxes and communication has been remediated. During 2014, management completed remediation efforts to: 1) enhance the design and operating effectiveness of control procedures pertaining to manufacturing and supply chain processes relating to indirect tax incentives in its Brazilian subsidiary; 2) redefine and strengthen the roles and responsibilities within its Brazilian subsidiary, including the reporting structure, with respect to the indirect tax compliance program including hiring an Administrative Director who is responsible for managing indirect tax compliance; and 3) formalize and strengthen communication by operational management to regional and corporate management.

Remediation of Material Weakness

The remediation efforts outlined below are intended to address the identified material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.

India System Adoption and Account Reconciliation Process: Management's remediation plan consists of the following:
Conduct a review of account reconciliation processes to align those processes with system functionality to reduce the risk of future errors.
Conduct additional focused training on the Company’s account reconciliation policies and procedures to reinforce discipline and improve operating effectiveness.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company began the implementation of its plan to identify and correct the issues within its reconciliation process. This process continued during the third quarter of 2014. The Company has focused its policies and procedures to reinforce the discipline and operating effectiveness of the Indian enterprise resource planning system. Additionally, cross-functional training has taken place to reinforce the necessary process discipline and enhanced policies and procedures are being developed.

There is no assurance that these efforts will remediate the material weakness and that additional remediation efforts might not be necessary. At this time, the Company anticipates the remediation efforts related to the material weakness will be fully implemented by the end of 2014.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, there were no changes, other than the above remediation efforts, to the Company's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
(dollars in thousands)
At September 30, 2014, the Company was a party to several lawsuits that were incurred in the normal course of business, none of which individually or in the aggregate is considered material by management in relation to the Company's financial position or results of operations. In addition, the Company has indemnification obligations with certain former employees and costs associated with these indemnifications are expensed as incurred. In management's opinion, the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements would not be materially affected by the outcome of those legal proceedings, commitments or asserted claims.
In addition to the routine legal proceedings noted above, the Company was a party to the legal proceedings described below at September 30, 2014:
Indirect Tax Contingencies
In August 2012, one of the Company's Brazilian subsidiaries was notified of a tax assessment of approximately R$270,000, including penalties and interest, regarding certain Brazilian federal indirect taxes (Industrialized Products Tax, Import Tax, Programa de Integração Social and Contribution to Social Security Financing) for 2008 and 2009. The assessment alleges improper importation of certain components into Brazil's free trade zone that would nullify certain indirect tax incentives. On September 10, 2012, the Company filed its administrative defenses with the tax authorities. This proceeding is currently pending an administrative level decision, which could negatively impact Brazilian federal indirect taxes in other years that remain open under statute. It is reasonably possible that the Company could be required to pay taxes, penalties and interest related to this matter, which could be material to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

In response to an order by the administrative court, the tax inspector provided further analysis with respect to the initial assessment in December 2013, which has now been accepted by the initial administrative court, that indicates a potential exposure that is significantly lower than the initial tax assessment received in August 2012. However, this matter remains subject to ongoing administrative proceedings and appeals. Accordingly, the Company cannot provide any assurance that its exposure pursuant to the initial assessment will be lowered significantly or at all. The Company continues to defend itself in the administrative proceedings.

In connection with the Brazilian indirect tax assessment, in May 2013, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)requested that the Company retain certain documents and produce certain records relating to the assessment, to which the Company complied. However, in September 2014, the Company was notified by the SEC that it had closed its inquiry relating to the assessment.

In addition, the Company is challenging a customs ruling in Thailand seeking to retroactively collect customs duties on previous imports of Automated Teller Machines (ATM). Management believes that the customs authority’s attempt to retroactively assess customs duties is in contravention of World Trade Organization agreements and, accordingly, is challenging the ruling. In July 2014, the Central Tax Court in Thailand dismissed the Company’s complaint; however, the Company will be appealing this decision, and management continues to believe that the Company has a valid legal position for supporting its challenge. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued any amount for this contingency; however, the Company cannot provide any assurance that it will not ultimately be subject to a retroactive assessment.
