(Amounts in thousands except share data and where otherwise indicated) (Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim periods and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes for Dover Corporation ("Dover" or the "Company") for the year ended December 31, 2019, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 14, 2020. The year end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial statements. Certain amounts in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.  

The accompanying unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from those estimates. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for these interim periods. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year.

2. Revenue

A majority of the Company’s revenue is short cycle in nature with shipments within one year from order. A small portion of the Company’s revenue derives from contracts extending over one year. The Company's payment terms generally range between 30 to 90 days and vary by the location of businesses, the type of products manufactured to be sold and the volume of products sold, among other factors.
Over 95% of the Company’s performance obligations are recognized at a point in time that relate to the manufacture and sale of a broad range of products and components. Revenue is recognized when control transfers to the customer upon shipment or completion of installation, testing, certification, or other substantive acceptance provisions required under the contract. Less than 5% of the Company’s revenue is recognized over time and generally relates to the sale of services or engineered to order equipment that have no alternative use and in which the contract specifies the Company has a right to payment for its costs, plus a reasonable margin.

Revenue from contracts with customers is disaggregated by segments and geographic location, as it best depicts the nature and amount of the Company’s revenue. See Note 17 — Segment Information for revenue by segment and geographic locations.
At June 30, 2020, we estimated that $155 million in revenue is expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) at the end of the reporting period. We expect to recognize approximately 76% of our unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations as revenue through 2021, with the remaining balance to be recognized in 2022 and thereafter.

The following table provides information about contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers:
 June 30, 2020December 31, 2019January 1, 2019
Contract assets$16,423  $14,894  $9,330  
Contract liabilities - current78,258  44,001  36,461  
Contract liabilities - non-current12,247  9,121  9,382  

The revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 that was included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period amounted to $26,113 and $27,701, respectively.

2019 Acquisitions

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company acquired two businesses in separate transactions for total consideration of $215,304, net of cash acquired. These businesses were acquired to complement and expand upon existing operations within the Fueling Solutions and Pumps & Process Solutions segment. The goodwill recorded as a result of these acquisitions represents the economic benefits expected to be derived from product line expansions and operational synergies. The goodwill is deductible for U.S. income tax purposes for these acquisitions.

On May 7, 2019, the Company acquired the assets of the All-Flo Pump Company, Limited business ("All-Flo"), a growing manufacturer of specialty pumps for $39,954. The All-Flo acquisition strengthens Dover's position in the growing market for air-operated double-diaphragm pumps within the Pumps & Process Solutions segment. The Company recorded goodwill of $20,951 and intangible assets of $14,980. The intangible assets are being amortized over 13 to 15 years.

On January 25, 2019, the Company acquired the assets of Belanger, Inc. ("Belanger"), a leading full-line car wash equipment manufacturer for $175,350, net of cash acquired.

In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $98,084 and intangible assets of $77,000, primarily related to customer intangibles. The intangible assets are being amortized over 9 to 15 years.

Pro Forma Information

The following unaudited pro forma information illustrates the impact of 2020 and 2019 acquisitions on the Company’s revenue and earnings from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
The unaudited pro forma information assumes that the 2020 and 2019 acquisitions had taken place at the beginning of the prior year, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Unaudited pro forma earnings are adjusted to reflect the comparable impact of additional depreciation and amortization expense, net of tax, resulting from the fair value measurement of intangible and tangible assets relating to the year of acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma effects for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were as follows:

4. Disposed Operations

Management evaluates Dover's businesses periodically for their strategic fit within its operations and may from time to time sell or discontinue certain operations for various reasons.

2020

On March 6, 2020, the Company completed the sale of the Chino, California branch of The AMS Group ("AMS Chino"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company recognized total consideration of $15,400, which included a working capital adjustment recognized in the second quarter to be paid in the third quarter of 2020. This sale resulted in a pre-tax gain on sale of $5,770 included within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and within the Refrigeration & Food Equipment Segment for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The sale does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on operations and financial results and, therefore, did not qualify for presentation as a discontinued operation.

2019

On March 29, 2019, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell Finder Pompe S.r.l ("Finder"), a wholly owned subsidiary, to Gruppo Aturia S.p.A (“Aturia”). As of March 31, 2019, Finder met the criteria to be classified as held for sale. The Company classified Finder's assets and liabilities separately on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2019.

Based on the total consideration from the sale, net of selling costs, the Company recorded a loss on the assets held for sale of $46,946 in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The loss was comprised of an impairment on assets held for sale of $21,607 and $25,339 of foreign currency translation losses reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive losses.

On April 2, 2019, Dover completed the sale of Finder to Aturia, which generated total cash proceeds of $24,218. The Finder business was included in the results of the Pumps & Process Solutions segment. The sale does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on operations and financial results and, therefore, did not qualify for presentation as a discontinued operation.

7. Credit Losses

Effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments prospectively. This ASU replaces the incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss impairment model for financial instruments, including trade receivables. The amendment requires entities to consider forward-looking information to estimate expected credit losses, resulting in earlier recognition of losses for receivables that are current or not yet due, which were not considered under the previous accounting guidance. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a noncash cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings of $2.1 million, net of $0.6 million of income taxes, on the opening consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2020.

The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of products and services. The Company’s expected loss allowance methodology for accounts receivable is developed using historical collection experience, current and future economic and market conditions and a review of the current status of customers' trade accounts receivables. Due to the short-term nature of such receivables, the estimate of amount of accounts receivable that may not be collected is based on aging of the accounts receivable balances and the financial condition of customers. Additionally, specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. The Company’s monitoring activities include timely account reconciliation, dispute resolution, payment confirmation, consideration of customers' financial condition and macroeconomic conditions. Balances are written off when determined to be uncollectible. The Company considered the current

and expected future economic and market conditions surrounding the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and determined that the estimate of credit losses was not significantly impacted.

Estimates are used to determine the allowance. It is based on assessment of anticipated payment and all other historical, current and future information that is reasonably available.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded additions of $145,337 to goodwill as a result of the acquisitions within the Engineered Products, Imaging & Identification, and Pumps & Process Solutions segments discussed in Note 3 — Acquisitions. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company disposed of $2,597 of the Refrigeration & Food Equipment segment goodwill as a result of the sale of a business as discussed in Note 4 — Disposed Operations.

Dover performs its annual goodwill impairment testing in the fourth quarter of each year. During the 2019 impairment testing, all fifteen reporting units had fair values substantially in excess of their carrying values. In addition to the annual impairment test, the Company is required to regularly assess whether a triggering event has occurred which would require interim impairment testing. The Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on each of the reporting units. Further, the Company assessed the current market capitalization, forecasts and the amount of headroom in the 2019 impairment test. The Company determined that a triggering event has not occurred which would require an interim impairment test to be performed. Refer to "Segment Results of Operations" for further details on the COVID-19 impact to the Company's operations.

Total$12,284  $5,738  $19,625  $8,674  

The restructuring expenses of $12,284 and $19,625 incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, were a result of restructuring programs initiated primarily in 2020. Restructuring expense was comprised primarily of new actions in response to lower demand driven by COVID-19 and continuing broad-based selling, general and administrative expense reduction initiatives and broad-based operational efficiency initiatives focusing on footprint consolidation, and operational optimization and IT centralization. Additional programs, beyond the scope of the announced programs, may be implemented during 2020 with related restructuring charges.

The $12,284 of restructuring charges incurred during the second quarter of 2020 primarily included the following items:
The Engineered Products segment recorded $4,160 of restructuring charges principally related to headcount reductions.

The Fueling Solutions segment recorded $911 of restructuring charges primarily due to facility restructuring costs.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company maintained a $1.0 billion five-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") with a syndicate of banks which expires on October 4, 2024. The Company uses the Credit Agreement principally as liquidity back-up for its commercial paper program. On March 16, 2020, the Company borrowed $500 million under the Credit Agreement. Proceeds from the borrowing were used to repay all of the Company's outstanding commercial paper and for general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2020, the Company repaid the $500 million borrowed under the Credit Agreement by resumed commercial paper borrowings.

On May 6, 2020, the Company entered into a $450.0 million 364-day revolving credit facility (the "Short-term Credit Agreement") with a syndicate of banks which expires on May 5, 2021. The Short-term Credit Agreement is intended to be used primarily for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Company may elect to have loans under the Short-term Credit Agreement which bear interest at a base rate plus a specified applicable margin. The Short-term Credit Agreement requires the Company to pay a facility fee and imposes various restrictions on the Company such as, among other things, a requirement to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of EBITDA to consolidated net interest expense of not less than 3.0 to 1. The Company has not undertaken any borrowings under this facility.

The Company was in compliance with all covenants in the Credit Agreement, the Short-term Credit Agreement, and other long-term debt covenants at June 30, 2020 and had an interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated net interest expense of 10.7 to 1.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $174.7 million outstanding in letters of credit, surety bonds, and performance and other guarantees which expire on various dates through 2029. These letters of credit and bonds are primarily issued as security for insurance, warranty and other performance obligations. In general, we would only be liable for the amount of these guarantees in the event of default in the performance of our obligations.

11. Financial Instruments

Derivatives

The Company is exposed to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates due to the global nature of its operations and certain commodity risks. In order to manage these risks, the Company has hedged portions of its forecasted sales and purchases to occur within the next twelve months that are denominated in non-functional currencies, with currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had contracts with total notional amounts of $157,510 and $179,580, respectively, to exchange currencies, principally Euro, Pound Sterling, Swedish Krona, Chinese Yuan, Canadian Dollar, and Swiss Franc. The Company believes it is probable that all forecasted cash flow transactions will occur.

In addition, the Company had outstanding contracts with a total notional amount of $91,419 and $79,707 as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, that are not designated as hedging instruments. These instruments are used to reduce the Company's exposure for operating receivables and payables that are denominated in non-functional currencies. Gains and losses on these contracts are recorded in other income, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

The following table sets forth the fair values of derivative instruments held by the Company as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and the balance sheet lines in which they are recorded:
Fair Value Asset (Liability)
June 30, 2020December 31, 2019Balance Sheet Caption
Foreign currency forward$1,792  $2,892  Prepaid and other current assets
Foreign currency forward(2,112) (476) Other accrued expenses

For a cash flow hedge, the change in estimated fair value of a hedging instrument is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) earnings as a separate component of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity and is reclassified into revenues and cost of goods and services in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings during the period in which the hedged transaction is recognized. The amount of gains or losses from hedging activity recorded in earnings is not significant, and the amount of unrealized gains and losses from cash flow hedges that are expected to be reclassified to earnings in the next twelve months is not significant; therefore, additional tabular disclosures are not presented. There are no amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and the Company's derivative instruments that are subject to credit risk contingent features were not significant.

The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to the financial instrument contracts held by the Company; however, nonperformance by these counterparties is considered unlikely as the Company’s policy is to contract with highly-rated, diversified counterparties.

The Company has designated the €600,000 and €500,000 of euro-denominated notes issued November 9, 2016 and November 4, 2019, respectively, as hedges of a portion of its net investment in euro-denominated operations. Changes in the value of the euro-denominated debt are recognized in foreign currency translation adjustments within other comprehensive earnings of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Earnings to offset changes in the value of the net investment in euro-denominated operations.

Amounts recognized in other comprehensive earnings for the gains (losses) on net investment hedges were as follows:

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 inputs include inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of assets or liabilities.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:
June 30, 2020December 31, 2019
Level 2Level 2
Assets:
Foreign currency cash flow hedges$1,792  $2,892  
Liabilities:
Foreign currency cash flow hedges2,112  476  

In addition to fair value disclosure requirements related to financial instruments carried at fair value, accounting standards require interim disclosures regarding the fair value of all of the Company’s financial instruments.

The estimated fair value of long-term debt, net at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, was $3,421,108 and $3,322,033, respectively. The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted market prices for similar instruments and is, therefore, classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts payable and notes payable are reasonable estimates of their fair values as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

12. Income Taxes

The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were 20.4% and 20.7%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020 relative to the prior comparable period is primarily driven by favorable audit settlements.

The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were 18.7% and 21.7%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 relative to the prior comparable period is primarily driven by the favorable audit settlements and the impact of the exclusion of capital loss on the sale of Finder under local law in 2019.

Dover and its subsidiaries file tax returns in the U.S., including various state and local returns, and in other foreign jurisdictions. We believe adequate provision has been made for all income tax uncertainties. The Company is routinely audited by taxing authorities in its filing jurisdictions, and a number of these audits are currently underway. The Company believes that within the next twelve months uncertain tax positions may be resolved and statutes of limitations will expire, which could result in a decrease in the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits of approximately zero to $9.6 million.

13. Equity Incentive Program

The Company typically grants equity awards annually at its regularly scheduled first quarter meeting of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued stock-settled appreciation rights ("SARs") covering 390,780 shares, performance share awards of 49,056 and restricted stock units ("RSUs") of 79,024.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of each SAR on the date of grant. Expected volatilities are based on Dover's stock price history, including implied volatilities from traded options on Dover stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate SAR exercise and employee termination patterns within the valuation model. The expected life of SARs granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the average period of time that SARs granted are expected to be outstanding. The interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the SARs is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

The assumptions used in determining the fair value of the SARs awarded during the respective periods were as follows:
SARs
 20202019
Risk-free interest rate1.44 %2.51 %
Dividend yield1.65 %2.13 %

Volatility22.76 %22.35 %
Grant price
$119.86$91.20
Fair value per share at date of grant
$22.54$17.55

The performance share awards granted in 2020 are market condition awards as attainment is based on Dover's performance relative to its peer group (companies listed under the S&P 500 Industrials sector) for the relevant performance period. The performance period and vesting period for these awards is approximately three years. These awards were valued on the date of grant using the Monte Carlo simulation model (a binomial lattice-based valuation model), and are generally recognized ratably over the vesting period, and the fair value is not subject to change based on future market conditions. The assumptions used in determining the fair value of the performance shares granted in 2020 were as follows:

Expected life (years)2.9
Volatility23.30 %
Grant price$119.86
Fair value per share at date of grant$165.71

The performance share awards granted in 2019 are considered performance condition awards as attainment is based on Dover's performance relative to established internal metrics. The fair value of these awards was determined using Dover's closing stock price on the date of grant. The expected attainment of the internal metrics for these awards is analyzed each reporting period, and the related expense is adjusted based on expected attainment, if that attainment differs from previous estimates. The cumulative effect on current and prior periods of a change in attainment is recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings in the period of change.  

The fair value and average attainment used in determining stock-based compensation cost for the performance shares issued in 2019 is as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2020:
Performance Shares
 2019
Fair value per share at date of grant

The Company also has granted RSUs, and the fair value of these awards was determined using Dover's closing stock price on the date of grant.

Stock-based compensation is reported within selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The following table summarizes the Company’s compensation expense relating to all stock-based incentive plans:

14. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Litigation

Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are involved in legal proceedings relating to the cleanup of waste disposal sites identified under federal and state statutes that provide for the allocation of such costs among "potentially responsible parties." In each instance, the extent of the Company’s liability appears to be very small in relation to the total projected expenditures and the number of other "potentially responsible parties" involved and is anticipated to be immaterial to the Company. In addition, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are involved in ongoing remedial activities at certain current and former plant sites, in cooperation with regulatory agencies, and appropriate estimated liabilities have been established. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had estimated liabilities totaling $31,892 and $30,608, respectively, for environmental and other matters, including private party claims for exposure to hazardous substances that are probable and estimable.

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are also parties to a number of other legal proceedings incidental to their businesses. These proceedings primarily involve claims by private parties alleging injury arising out of use of the Company’s products, patent infringement, employment matters, and commercial disputes. Management and legal counsel, at least quarterly, review the probable outcome of such proceedings, the costs and expenses reasonably expected to be incurred and currently

accrued to-date, and the availability and extent of insurance coverage. The Company has estimated liabilities for legal matters that are probable and estimable, and at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, these estimated liabilities were not significant. While it is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of these legal actions, in the opinion of management, based on the aforementioned reviews, the Company is not currently involved in any legal proceedings which, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Warranty Accruals

Estimated warranty program claims are provided for at the time of sale of the Company's products. Amounts provided for are based on historical costs and adjusted for new claims and are included within other accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The changes in the carrying amount of product warranties through June 30, 2020 and 2019, were as follows:

15. Employee Benefit Plans

Retirement Plans

The Company sponsors qualified defined benefit pension plans covering certain employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, although the U.S. qualified and non-qualified defined benefit plans are closed to new entrants. The plans’ benefits are generally based on years of service and employee compensation. The Company also provides to certain management employees, through non-qualified plans, supplemental retirement benefits in excess of qualified plan limits imposed by federal tax law.

The tables below set forth the components of the Company’s net periodic (income) expense relating to retirement benefit plans. The service cost component is recognized within selling, general and administrative expenses and cost of goods and services, depending on the functional area of the underlying employees included in the plans, and the non-operating components of pension costs are included within other income, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

18. Share Repurchases

In February 2018, the Company's Board of Directors approved a standing share repurchase authorization, whereby the Company may repurchase up to 20 million shares of its common stock through December 31, 2020. This share repurchase authorization replaced the January 2015 share repurchase authorization.

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company repurchased 548,659 shares of common stock at a total cost of $52,916, or $96.45 per share. The Company suspended share repurchases in the second quarter due to business uncertainty related to COVID-19 which resulted in no repurchases under the February 2018 authorization during the three months ended June 30, 2020. The Company lifted this suspension beginning in the second half of the year. There were no share repurchases during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

As of June 30, 2020, 7,811,385 shares remain authorized for repurchase under the February 2018 share repurchase authorization.

20. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses rather than incurred losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. This resulted in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. In addition, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326 which provides clarity on certain aspects of the amendments in ASU 2016-13. The Company adopted this guidance prospectively on January 1, 2020. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a noncash cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings of $2.1 million, net of $0.6 million of income taxes, on the opening consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2020. See Note 7 — Credit Losses for further details.

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

Refer to the section below entitled "Special Notes Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" for a discussion of factors that could cause our actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements contained below and throughout this quarterly report.

Throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A"), we refer to measures used by management to evaluate performance as well as liquidity, including a number of financial measures that are not defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). We believe these measures provide investors with important information that is useful in understanding our business results and trends. Explanations within this MD&A provide more details on the use and derivation of these measures.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") a pandemic. The COVID-19 outbreak and associated counter-acting measures implemented by governments around the world, as well as increased business uncertainty, had an adverse impact on our financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The outlook in many of our markets remains uncertain and the pandemic is likely to continue negatively impacting levels of commercial activity and our results. Based on improving sequential revenue and bookings trends in the second quarter, we anticipate that activity will improve in the third quarter. However, we do not expect to return to normal levels or growth for the remainder of the year across most of our impacted businesses.

OVERVIEW

Dover is a diversified global manufacturer and solutions provider delivering innovative equipment and components, consumable supplies, aftermarket parts, software and digital solutions, and support services through five operating segments: Engineered Products, Fueling Solutions, Imaging & Identification, Pumps & Process Solutions, and Refrigeration & Food Equipment. The Company's entrepreneurial business model encourages, promotes and fosters deep customer engagement and collaboration, which has led to Dover's well-established and valued reputation for providing superior customer service and industry-leading product innovation. Unless the context indicates otherwise, references herein to "Dover," "the Company," and words such as "we," "us," or "our" include Dover Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Dover's five operating segments are as follows:

Our Engineered Products segment is a provider of a wide range of products, software and services that have broad customer applications across a number of markets, including aftermarket vehicle service, solid waste handling, industrial automation, aerospace and defense, industrial winch and hoist, and fluid dispensing.

Our Fueling Solutions segment is focused on providing components, equipment and software and service solutions enabling safe transport of fuels and other hazardous fluids along the supply chain, as well as the safe and efficient operation of retail fueling and vehicle wash establishments.

Our Imaging & Identification segment supplies precision marking and coding, product traceability and digital textile printing equipment, as well as related consumables, software and services.

Our Pumps & Process Solutions segment manufactures specialty pumps, fluid handling components, plastics and polymer processing equipment, and highly engineered components for rotating and reciprocating machines.

Our Refrigeration & Food Equipment segment is a provider of innovative and energy-efficient equipment and systems that serve the commercial refrigeration, heating and cooling and food equipment markets.

In the second quarter of 2020, revenue was $1.5 billion, which decreased $311.5 million, or 17.2%, as compared to the second quarter of 2019. This was driven by an organic revenue decline of 16.0%, an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 1.2% and a 0.7% impact due to dispositions. This decline was partially offset by acquisition-related revenue growth of 0.7%.

The 16.0% organic revenue decline compared to the second quarter of 2019 was broad-based across our segments due to the slowing demand environment in many of our end-markets driven by the global response to the outbreak of COVID-19. The Refrigeration & Food Equipment segment experienced organic revenue decline of 20.2% on weaker demand for commercial foodservice equipment and postponement of store remodels and shipments in food retail, while the heat exchanger business

Table of Contents
showed relative resilience. The Engineered Products segment had a decline in organic revenue of 20.1% primarily as a result of significantly weaker demand in our vehicle service, industrial automation and fluid dispensing businesses, while aerospace & defense and waste handling showed relative resilience. The Fueling Solutions segment saw a decline in organic revenue of 14.8% driven by slowing demand in retail fueling markets in Europe and Asia, as well as weaker activity in the transportation and vehicle wash markets, partially offset by strong Europay, Mastercard, and Visa ("EMV") activity in the North America fueling industry. The Imaging & Identification segment experienced a decline in organic revenue of 14.0% primarily driven by a significant slowdown in the textile digital printing market caused by global disruption in the apparel and fashion markets, while marking and coding showed relative resilience. The Pumps & Process Solutions segment had a decline in organic revenue of 8.8% as a result of slowing demand in the oil & gas and general industrial end-markets, partially offset by strong growth in the biopharma and hygienic markets.

From a geographic perspective, in the second quarter, organic revenue for the U.S., our largest market, declined 10%, while organic revenue in Europe and Asia declined 19% and 14%, respectively, year over year. Organic revenue in all other geographic markets declined 33%. Four out of our five segments experienced declines in U.S. organic sales, while the Fueling Solutions segment grew on the basis of continued demand for EMV-compliant above-ground retail fueling equipment. The decline in Europe in the second quarter was broad-based across all segments as the region faced significant operational and demand headwinds from the COVID-19 pandemic. The decline in Asia was driven mainly by weak activity in India where the lockdown in response to COVID-19 has been broad and prolonged, as well as China where our Fueling Solutions segment, our second largest business in China, faced significant headwinds due to the expiration of the government's double-wall upgrade mandate that drove significant activity in prior years, as well as continued weak demand from the major national oil companies. Three out of our five segments did return to growth in China in the second quarter.

Bookings were $1.4 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $402.6 million compared to the prior year period. Included in this result was organic decline of 20.6%, an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 1.7% and a 0.6% impact due to dispositions, partially offset by acquisition-related bookings growth of 0.7%. The decline in organic bookings was broad-based across our segments primarily as a result of the global impact on customer demand from the COVID-19 pandemic. Bookings have improved sequentially in June 2020, which may indicate recovering demand, but remained subdued on a year-over-year basis across most of our businesses. Backlog as of June 30, 2020 was $1.5 billion, an increase from $1.4 billion from the prior year. See definition of bookings and backlog within "Segment Results of Operations".

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we acquired Em-tec GmbH ("Em-tec") for a purchase price of $30.4 million, net of cash acquired. Em-tec is a leading designer and manufacturer of flow measurement devices that serve a wide array of medical and biopharmaceutical applications and will strengthen the portfolio of our Pumps & Process Solutions segment, particularly in the biopharma end-market.

Rightsizing charges included restructuring costs of $12.3 million and other costs of $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Restructuring expense was comprised primarily of new actions taken in response to lower demand driven by COVID-19 and continuing broad-based selling, general and administrative expense reduction initiatives and broad-based operational efficiency initiatives focusing on footprint consolidation, and operational optimization and IT centralization. These restructuring charges were broad-based across all segments as well as corporate. Other costs were comprised primarily of charges related to the restructuring actions and a $3.6 million write-off of assets in our Refrigeration & Food Equipment segment.

COVID-19 Update

Over the past few months, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the global economy and adversely impacted our business, including demand for our products across multiple end-markets as well as our supply chain and operations. We expect the unfavorable impact will continue in the second half of 2020 as general business and economic uncertainty persists and puts pressure on the level of global business investment. Travel and other restrictions put in place globally in response to the pandemic have impacted operations of our customers and suppliers, as well as the ability of our staff to deliver certain services to our customers. While travel restrictions and lockdown measures around the world are being reduced, the levels of activity in our markets remain subdued relative to average historical levels and we expect continued impact in the second half of 2020, albeit continuing a gradual improving trajectory that began at the end of the second quarter.

Beginning late in the first quarter and continuing into the second quarter, we have operated in accordance with established health and safety protocols across our facilities and have instituted an enhanced health and safety compliance program. More specifically, we modified practices at our manufacturing locations and offices to adhere to guidance from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and local health and governmental authorities in our global network with respect to social distancing, physical separation and personal protective equipment and sanitization, and have restricted the number of employees permitted in common areas at any given time. Further, we enhanced our operational excellence model with robust processes and practices to promote a clean and sanitary working environment, socially distanced operations where possible and a culture of care and responsibility. These practices and processes include procedures for dealing with confirmed COVID-19 cases, compliance auditing, use of personal protective equipment, access control and other protective measures, and manufacturing line and operational interface re-design.

We consider our companies to be essential suppliers to our customers and business partners as we provide products and services on which our customers and broader society rely upon daily to support crucial functions. Therefore most of our U.S. and global facilities have remained substantially operational during the outbreak with enhanced safety protocols to protect the well-being of our employees. Over the course of the second quarter, approximately 85% of our major global facilities (by count) remained fully operational throughout the entire quarter. Certain facilities were either partially or fully closed due to government mandates or in response to pandemic-related reduced demand in certain end-markets such as the commercial refrigeration, vehicle service and apparel and textile printing markets. We have experienced the most prolonged operational restrictions in India, Malaysia, Brazil and Italy, all countries where we have a relatively immaterial manufacturing footprint (except Italy, where we have significant presence in our Imaging & Identification, Engineered Products and Pumps & Process Solutions segments). As of June 30, 2020, approximately 97% of our major global facilities were fully operational.

In order to help mitigate the negative financial impact caused by the pandemic, we have executed and will continue to execute a number of temporary cost savings measures across the portfolio and at our corporate center including employee furloughs, adjustments to variable compensation to reflect current conditions, utilization of governmental job retention subsidies, elimination of non-essential travel and reduction of discretionary spend. We have also significantly reduced our capital spending plan for the year, without deferring strategic ongoing initiatives. In addition, we initiated restructuring actions to drive longer-term cost savings and are proactively managing our working capital.

Beginning in early-to-mid-March 2020, the commercial paper market began to experience very high levels of volatility as a result of COVID 19-related uncertainties. As a result, on March 16, 2020, we borrowed $500 million under our $1 billion revolving credit facility. We subsequently paid off the $500 million using proceeds from commercial paper in the second quarter as volatility in the commercial paper market stabilized and we have resumed borrowing commercial paper. In the spirit of prudent liquidity management, even though we have no long-term debt maturities until 2025, on May 6, 2020 we also entered into a $450.0 million 364-day revolving credit facility which expires on May 5, 2021. We have not drawn down any amounts under this facility. See "Financial Condition - Capitalization" for further discussion.

The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, its impact on our customers and suppliers and the range of governmental and community reactions to the pandemic, which are uncertain and cannot be fully predicted at this time. We will continue to proactively respond to the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by governmental authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees and customers.

Revenue

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $311.5 million, or 17.2%, from the comparable period. Results included an organic revenue decline of 16.0% across all our segments primarily due to the adverse impact of COVID-19 on our global operations resulting in lower volume and demand. Acquisition-related revenue growth of 0.7%, led by our Imaging & Identification and Pumps & Process Solutions segments, was more than offset by an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 1.2% and a 0.7% impact from a disposition within the Refrigeration & Food Equipment segment. Customer pricing favorably impacted revenue by approximately 0.8% in the second quarter of 2020.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $380.3 million, or 10.8%, from the comparable period. The decrease primarily reflects organic revenue decline of 9.5% across all our segments due to the adverse impact of COVID-19. Acquisition-related growth was 0.8% led by our Imaging & Identification and Pumps & Process Solutions segments. This growth was offset by an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 1.4% and a 0.7% impact from dispositions within the Pumps & Process Solutions and Refrigeration & Food Equipment segments. Customer pricing favorably impacted revenue by approximately 0.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $121.0 million, or 18.0% from the comparable period and gross profit margin decreased 30 basis points to 36.8%, primarily due to organic revenue declines of 16.0%, increased material and inflation costs, under-absorption of production fixed overhead and higher restructuring costs, partially offset by favorable business mix, pricing initiatives, benefits from productivity initiatives, restructuring and cost containment actions, including adjusting direct and indirect manufacturing costs to current demand levels and short-term actions to reduce labor costs such as furloughs.

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $132.3 million, or 10.2%, from the comparable period, primarily due to an organic revenue decline of 9.5%, increased material and inflation costs and higher restructuring costs, partially offset

by productivity initiatives and restructuring and cost containment actions. Gross profit margin increased by 20 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from the comparable period primarily due to benefits from productivity initiatives and restructuring and cost containment actions. We are managing production at our operating plants' aggressively to match demand.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $29.9 million, or 7.5%, from the comparable period, primarily due to significant cost reduction actions to offset revenue declines, including a reduction in discretionary spend and adjustments to variable compensation to reflect current conditions, and benefits from rightsizing actions. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 260 basis points to 24.5% due to the decline in revenue base. As we continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19, we expect the third quarter to require continued actions such as further reducing discretionary spend and headcount to match demand.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $51.4 million, or 6.4%, from the comparable period, primarily due to a reduction in discretionary spend and benefits from rightsizing actions, partially offset by higher restructuring charges and a write-off of assets. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue increased 110 basis points as compared to the prior year comparable period reflecting the decrease in revenue base.

Research and development costs, including qualifying engineering costs, are expensed when incurred and amounted to $34.8 million and $35.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $70.3 million and $69.9 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These costs as a percent of revenue were 2.3% and 1.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 2.2% and 2.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Loss on assets held for sale

On March 29, 2019, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell Finder Pompe S.r.l. ("Finder") for total consideration of approximately $23.6 million net of estimated selling costs. As of March 31, 2019, Finder met the criteria to be classified as held for sale and based on the total consideration from the sale, net of selling costs, we recorded a loss on the assets held for sale of $46.9 million. The loss was comprised of an impairment on assets held for sale of $21.6 million and foreign currency translation losses reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive losses to current earnings of $25.3 million. We subsequently sold Finder on April 2, 2019, which generated total cash proceeds of $24.2 million.

Gain on sale of a business

On March 6, 2020, we sold the Chino, California branch of The AMS Group ("AMS Chino") within the Refrigeration & Food Equipment segment for total cash proceeds of $16.9 million, of which a $1.5 million working capital adjustment was recognized in the second quarter and will be paid in the third quarter, for a net consideration of $15.4 million. A gain of $5.8 million was recognized on this sale. The disposal did not represent a strategic shift in operations and, therefore, did not qualify for presentation as discontinued operations.

Other income, net

Other income, net for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $3.9 million primarily due to foreign exchange losses from the remeasurement of foreign currency denominated balances and decreased earnings from our equity method investments.

Other income, net for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $2.8 million primarily due to foreign exchange gains from the remeasurement of foreign currency denominated balances.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were 20.4% and 20.7%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020 relative to the prior comparable period was primarily driven by favorable audit settlements.

Table of Contents
The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were 18.7% and 21.7%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 relative to the prior comparable period is primarily driven by the favorable audit settlements and the impact of the exclusion of capital loss on the sale of Finder under local law in 2019.

Dover and its subsidiaries file tax returns in the U.S., including various state and local returns, and in other foreign jurisdictions. We believe adequate provision has been made for all income tax uncertainties. The Company is routinely audited by taxing authorities in its filing jurisdictions, and a number of these audits are currently underway. The Company believes that within the next twelve months uncertain tax positions may be resolved and statutes of limitations will expire, which could result in a decrease in the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits of approximately zero to $9.6 million.
Net earnings

Net earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased 37.0% to $124.8 million, or $0.86 diluted earnings per share, from $198.1 million, or $1.35 diluted earnings per share, from the comparable period. The decrease in net earnings was mainly attributable to reduced volume due to the impact of COVID-19, increased material and inflation costs and higher restructuring costs. The reduction was partially offset by broad-based cost containment actions and benefits from productivity and restructuring actions.

Net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased 0.9% to $301.0 million, or $2.07 diluted earnings per share, from $303.8 million, or $2.07 diluted earnings per share from the comparable period. The decrease in net earnings was primarily due to the impact of COVID-19, increased material and inflation costs, and higher restructuring costs. The decrease in net earnings was partially offset by broad-based cost containment actions, benefits from productivity and restructuring actions, and a loss on assets held for sale of $46.9 million in the prior period.

Rightsizing Activities, which includes Restructuring and Other Costs

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, rightsizing activities included restructuring charges of $12.3 million and $19.6 million, respectively, and other costs of $4.6 million and $5.1 million, respectively. Restructuring expense was comprised primarily of new actions taken in response to lower demand driven by COVID-19 and continuing broad-based selling, general and administrative expense reduction initiatives and broad-based operational efficiency initiatives focusing on footprint consolidation and operational optimization and IT centralization. Other costs were comprised primarily of charges related to the restructuring actions and a $3.6 million write-off of assets. These rightsizing charges were recorded in cost of goods and services and selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings. Additional programs beyond the scope of the announced programs may be implemented during 2020 with related restructuring charges.

We recorded the following rightsizing costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020:

SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The summary that follows provides a discussion of the results of operations of each of our five reportable operating segments (Engineered Products, Fueling Solutions, Imaging & Identification, Pumps & Process Solutions, and Refrigeration & Food Equipment). Each of these segments is comprised of various product and service offerings that serve multiple markets. See Note 17 — Segment Information in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for a reconciliation of segment revenue and earnings to our consolidated revenue and net earnings. For further information, see "Non-GAAP Disclosures" at the end of this Item 2.

Additionally, we use the following operational metrics in monitoring the performance of the business. We believe the operational metrics are useful to investors and other users of our financial information in assessing the performance of our segments:

Bookings represent total orders received from customers in the current reporting period. This metric is an important measure of performance and an indicator of revenue order trends.

Backlog represents an estimate of the total remaining bookings at a point in time for which performance obligations have not yet been satisfied. This metric is useful as it represents the aggregate amount we expect to recognize as revenue in the future.

Book-to-bill is a ratio of the amount of bookings received from customers during a period divided by the amount of revenue recorded during that same period. This metric is a useful indicator of demand.

Engineered Products
Our Engineered Products segment is a provider of a wide range of products, software and services that have broad customer applications across a number of markets, including aftermarket vehicle service, solid waste handling, industrial automation, aerospace and defense, industrial winch and hoist, and fluid dispensing.

Second Quarter 2020 Compared to the Second Quarter 2019

Engineered Products segment revenue for the second quarter of 2020 decreased $87.5 million, or 20.4%, as compared to the second quarter of 2019, comprised of organic decline of 20.1% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 0.5%, partially offset by acquisition-related growth of 0.2%. Acquisition-related growth was driven by the acquisition of So. Cal. Soft-Pak "Soft-Pak". Customer pricing did not have a significant impact on revenue in the second quarter of 2020.

Table of Contents

The organic revenue decline was primarily driven by the global economic downturn precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic. This impact was broad-based across our businesses in the Engineered Products segment, with the most significant impacts experienced in vehicle service, industrial automation and fluid dispensing. Our industrial winch and hoist businesses also experienced decreases in customer demand due to COVID-19 as well as challenging conditions in several end-markets. Our waste handling business showed relatively resilient revenue trajectory with a modest decline as the business shipped goods against its significant backlog of orders, as well as continued growth in adoption of our Connected Collection digital solutions. New order activity in waste handling saw headwinds in the quarter as waste haulers and municipalities reduced current year capital budgets to preserve cash flow, and orders for compaction and recycling solutions slowed as retail outlets remained closed for most of the quarter. Our aerospace & defense business also demonstrated resilience, posting approximately flat revenue growth in the quarter on the back of a strong backlog of orders from defense customers.

We expect the global COVID-19 pandemic to continue to impact segment results in the third quarter as demand headwinds across our businesses persist and, as a result, we have undertaken initiatives to adjust the cost structures of our businesses to align with near-term demand. However, we have begun to see improvement in market conditions across much of the segment and expect results to improve sequentially from the second quarter to the second half of 2020. Additionally, we expect that demand for our products will continue its long term favorable growth trend, and believe the fundamental long term demand drivers across our end-markets remain constructive.

Engineered Products segment earnings decreased $29.4 million, or 38.2%, compared to the second quarter of 2019, which had the highest margin performance of 2019. The decrease was primarily driven by the impact of widespread government actions to contain the spread of COVID-19 on customer spending. This was partially offset by the significant cost containment initiatives we executed in the second quarter. These initiatives include actions to adjust direct and indirect manufacturing costs to current demand levels, the execution of short-term actions to reduce labor costs, the elimination of non-essential travel, third party and other expenses, the recognition of adjustments to variable compensation to reflect current conditions, the execution of selective structural cost actions aimed at streamlining our businesses, and a detailed review and re-prioritization of all planned investments and hiring plans. These actions will continue into the third quarter and remain in place until we see sustained improvements in near-term demand. Segment operating margin decreased 400 basis points to 13.9% from 17.9% as compared to the prior year quarter.

Bookings decreased 30.0% for the segment, comprised of an organic decline of 29.8%, an unfavorable impact from foreign currency of 0.5%, partially offset by acquisition-related growth of 0.3%. The organic bookings decline was broad-based and primarily driven by the global impact on customer demand of the COVID-19 pandemic. Segment book-to-bill was 0.81. Backlog decreased 9.4% compared to the prior year quarter.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Engineered Products revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $98.2 million, or 11.6%, compared to the prior year comparable period. This was comprised of organic revenue decline of 11.1% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 0.7%, partially offset by acquisition-related growth of 0.2%. The organic revenue decline was primarily driven by the broad-based impact to customer spending of the global economic downturn precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact began in the first quarter with government mandated shutdowns in China and Italy impacting our vehicle service business as well as a voluntary shutdown in the U.S. of a facility serving the automotive original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") market. Demand headwinds continued into the second quarter. Customer pricing did not have a significant impact on revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Segment earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $27.5 million, or 19.0%, as compared to the 2019 period. This decrease was primarily driven by the earnings impact from lower revenues due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by significant cost reduction initiatives. Segment margin decreased from 17.0% to 15.6% as compared to the prior year comparable period.

Second Quarter 2020 Compared to the Second Quarter 2019

Fueling Solutions segment revenue for the second quarter of 2020 decreased $64.1 million, or 16.4%, comprised of an organic decline of 14.8% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 1.6%. Customer pricing favorably impacted revenue by approximately 1.2% in the second quarter of 2020.

The organic revenue decline was principally due to the continued adverse effects of COVID-19 on Fueling Solutions' global operations as well as the ability of customers and suppliers to operate. Government mandated shutdowns of manufacturing sites in the Asia Pacific region extended through May which affected both production volumes and demand, and have only resumed with limited capacity in June. Retail fueling volumes in China also decreased due to the tapering of activity for government mandated underground infrastructure conversion upgrades. Demand was also impacted by record declines in global mileage driven and gasoline consumption, as well as by declining oil prices in the second quarter of 2020 and resulting reduction in capital budgets of vertically-integrated oil companies, which operate a significant share of fuel retail infrastructure outside the North American market. Additionally, our businesses serving the transportation and vehicle wash markets were also challenged by market headwinds due to COVID-19-related operational disruptions, reduction in capital investment due to economic uncertainty and lower oil prices. Demand in North America was supported by strong demand and robust orders for EMV-compliant payment equipment which provided some offset to the decline in global sales. We expect activity in the retail fueling market to remain subdued in the second half of 2020, particularly outside of North America.

Fueling Solutions segment earnings decreased $5.4 million, or 10.3%, over the prior year quarter. The decrease was predominantly driven by the global impact of COVID-19 which depressed volume and demand. This decline was partially offset by favorable geographic and product mix, pricing initiatives, productivity actions including realized restructuring benefits and selling, general and administrative cost reductions. Segment margin increased 100 basis points over the prior year quarter.

Overall bookings decreased 21.0% as compared to the prior year quarter, driven by organic decline of 18.2% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 2.8%. Organic bookings decline is primarily driven by the global impact on customer demand caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by high order trends for EMV equipment in North America. Segment book to bill was 0.95. Backlog increased 7.0% as compared to the prior year quarter primarily as a result of first quarter bookings.

Organic revenue decline was due to slowing in the retail fueling market in China and other parts of the world outside of North America, as well as slowing in global fluid transfer and tunnel vehicle wash businesses, partially offset by strong EMV activity in the North America fueling industry. The decline was primarily driven by the global adverse impacts triggered by COVID-19 beginning in the middle of the first quarter with government mandated shutdowns in China and Italy affecting production and demand. Shutdowns continued into May in certain regions. Customer pricing favorably impacted revenue by approximately 1.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Fueling Solutions segment earnings increased $10.8 million, or 12.1%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was driven by favorable business mix, pricing and productivity initiatives and selling, general and administrative cost containment. These benefits were partially offset by weakened organic volume. Segment margin improved 290 basis points over the prior year comparable period.

Second Quarter 2020 Compared to the Second Quarter 2019

Imaging & Identification segment revenue for the second quarter of 2020 decreased $38.6 million, or 14.5%, comprised of an organic decline of 14.0% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 3.6%, partially offset by acquisition-related growth of 3.1%. Acquisition-related growth was driven by the acquisition of Sys-Tech Solutions, Inc. ("Systech"). Customer pricing favorably impacted revenue by approximately 1.1% in the second quarter of 2020.

The organic revenue decline was primarily driven by the global economic downturn precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic. The greatest impact was felt in our digital textile printing business headquartered in Italy where the country remained shut down through the first part of the second quarter. While our digital printing facilities in Italy reopened in May, our operations continued to produce and ship printing equipment and consumables at substantially reduced capacity as global end-market demand for textiles, including fashion and apparel goods, remained significantly depressed world-wide. Demand for consumables in our marking and coding business, particularly inks for food and beverage, cleaning supplies, pharmaceuticals and medical supplies remained resilient as production of essential goods continued. Also in marking and coding, we saw continued delays in order rates for new and replacement capital equipment, software, and services, however, our order pipeline remains robust and customer activity has improved through the second quarter as global economies began to reopen.

We expect to see improvements in market demand in our marking and coding business from the second quarter into the second half of 2020, and continue to anticipate a favorable long-term growth trend thereafter, supported by constructive secular trends in demand for product traceability, identification, differentiation and brand protection solutions. In our digital printing business, while we continue to believe we are favorably positioned long-term to exploit an accelerated transition from analog to digital printing by our customers, the near-term timing and trajectory of a recovery in the clothing and apparel market remains uncertain.

Imaging & Identification segment earnings decreased $16.6 million, or 30.4%, over the prior year quarter. This decrease was primarily driven by the impact of widespread government actions to contain the spread of COVID-19 on consumer spending and resulting decline in demand for the digital textile printing equipment and consumables. Partially offsetting this decrease were significant cost containment initiatives undertaken in the second quarter. These initiatives include actions to adjust direct and indirect manufacturing cost to current demand levels, the execution of short-term actions to reduce labor costs, the

Table of Contents
elimination of non-essential travel, third party and other expenses, the recognition of adjustments to variable compensation to reflect current conditions, the execution of selective structural cost actions aimed at streamlining our business, and a detailed review and re-prioritization of all planned investments and hiring plans. These actions have been taken deliberately and strategically, and have allowed us to rationalize current spending to levels appropriate given near-term market conditions, while preserving our ability to capitalize on long-term secular growth trends. These actions will continue into the third quarter and remain in place until we see sustained improvements in near-term demand. Segment margin decreased 380 basis points over the prior year quarter.

Overall bookings decreased 16.2% as compared to the prior year quarter, reflecting an organic decline of 16.5% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 3.5%, partially offset by acquisition-related growth of 3.8%. The organic reduction was the result of limited new orders for equipment and consumables in our digital printing business. Segment book to bill was 0.97. Backlog increased 44.6% as compared to the prior year quarter driven by the inclusion of backlog from the Systech acquisition, and sustained bookings for consumables in marking and coding.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Imaging & Identification segment revenue decreased $50.2 million, or 9.4%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, attributable to organic decline of 9.2% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 3.2%, partially offset by acquisition-related growth of 3.0%. The organic revenue decline was primarily driven by the impact to consumer spending of the aforementioned global economic downturn precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic. This impact began in the first quarter with government mandated shutdowns of manufacturing operations in February affecting our marking and coding facilities which returned to fully operational by March. In March, restrictions were implemented in Italy, where our digital printing business headquarters and main manufacturing facilities reside and continued into May. Customer pricing favorably impacted revenue by approximately 0.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Imaging & Identification segment earnings decreased $21.1 million, or 19.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily driven by the earnings impact from lower revenues due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by the significant cost reduction initiatives. Segment margin decreased from 20.7% to 18.5% as compared to the prior year comparable period.

Second Quarter 2020 Compared to the Second Quarter 2019

Pumps & Process Solutions segment revenue for the second quarter of 2020 decreased $29.8 million, or 8.8%, comprised of organic decline of 8.8% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 1.1%, partially offset by acquisition-related growth of 1.1%. Customer pricing favorably impacted revenue by approximately 0.9% in the second quarter of 2020.

The organic revenue decline was principally driven by the adverse impact of COVID-19 on investment activity in the general industrial space, as well as the slowing demand in the oil & gas end-market, partially offset by growth in the biopharma and hygienic markets (including for products directly used in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic). As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, several Pumps & Process Solutions facilities across the globe continued to be subjected to mandatory government shutdowns in Italy, Mexico and India. These shutdowns disrupted manufacturing and supply chain operations, as well as the operations of some of our customers and suppliers. Additionally, the fall in the price of oil has led to a reduction in demand from customers in the oil & gas end-market for rotating and reciprocating machinery components and aftermarket services. The impact is likely to continue and impact results in the second half of 2020. Activity in our plastics and polymer processing business remained constructive as it primarily serves large long-term capital projects around the world.

Pumps & Process Solutions segment earnings decreased $8.6 million, or 11.2%, over the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by the global impact of COVID-19 on volume, increased material and inflation costs, and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation. This decrease was partially offset by pricing initiatives, productivity actions, restructuring benefits, and selling, general and administrative cost reductions. The cost reductions include the elimination of non-essential travel, third party and other expenses, and re-prioritization of all planned investments and hiring plans. These actions as well as line rate reductions and selected furloughs will continue into the third quarter and remain in place until we see improvements in near-term demand. Segment margin decreased to 21.9% from 22.5% from the prior year quarter.

Overall bookings decreased 26.6% as compared to the prior year quarter, reflecting organic decline of 25.7% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 1.3%, partially offset by acquisition-related growth of 0.4%. Organic

The organic decline was primarily driven by the continued slower demand in the oil & gas market as well as government mandated facility shutdowns impacting China, India, Mexico and Italy during the first half of the year. Customer pricing favorably impacted revenue by approximately 1.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Second Quarter 2020 Compared to the Second Quarter 2019

Refrigeration & Food Equipment segment revenue decreased $91.9 million, or 23.9%, as compared to the second quarter of 2019, reflecting an organic revenue decline of 20.2%, a 3.1% impact from the disposition of AMS Chino, and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 0.6%. Customer pricing favorably impacted revenue by approximately 0.8% in the second quarter of 2020.

The organic revenue decline was principally driven by the impact of COVID-19 on the operations of our customers in food retail and commercial foodservice markets. Government actions to contain the spread of the virus, such as mandated plant shutdowns and social distancing measures, resulted in deferred customer orders and operational curtailments across the segment. Intermittent interruptions were experienced in our facilities on a global basis, especially early in the second quarter, with customer order rates and production uptime improving sequentially throughout the quarter as certain restrictions were eased. Many key customers in our retail refrigeration business delayed previously planned projects related to new store construction and existing store remodels and deferred their near-term capital investment plans, because of COVID restrictions impacting availability of installers and technicians as well as a desire to maximize store uptime to meet surging demand as a result of social distancing and restaurant closure mandates. Retail refrigeration business activity improved late in the quarter, with several key retail customers resuming capital investment programs as government restrictions related to COVID-19 were eased. Our ending backlog position is favorable to prior year, and we expect the recent wear and tear on existing retail refrigeration assets to drive the need for increased equipment replacement programs going forward. Demand from our U.S. commercial foodservice customers dropped significantly during the quarter as restaurants were closed in many localities and customer traffic declined significantly, leading restaurants to delay their capital expenditures. While some large restaurant chain customers have recently resumed capital investment programs, we expect more near-term softness in commercial foodservice due to continued government restrictions on restaurant operations and many school and university kitchens remaining closed. Additionally, we experienced slower sales in our heat exchanger business, but to a lesser extent than in our retail refrigeration and commercial foodservice businesses.

Table of Contents
Refrigeration & Food Equipment segment earnings decreased $32.9 million, or 74.2%, as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Segment margin decreased to 3.9% from 11.5% in the prior year quarter. The earnings decline was driven by reduced volumes and operational inefficiencies associated with impacts from COVID-19, higher restructuring costs primarily associated with segment-wide reductions in force, under-absorption of production fixed overhead, and a $3.6 million write-off of assets, partially offset by broad-based cost reduction activities, including adjusting direct and indirect manufacturing costs to current demand levels, reduction of discretionary expenses, adjustments to variable compensation to reflect current conditions, and deferral of planned selling, general, and administrative investments. These actions have resulted in improving margin performance towards the end of the second quarter and we expect to continue such cost control actions in the second half of 2020.

Bookings in the second quarter of 2020 decreased 15.1% from the prior year quarter, reflecting an organic decline of 11.6%, a 3.1% impact from the disposition of AMS Chino, and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 0.4%. Organic decline was driven primarily by COVID-19 demand reductions in our retail refrigeration, foodservice equipment and heat exchanger businesses, partially offset by project awards for aluminum can shaping equipment supported by market trends of beverage companies shifting away from plastic containers in favor of aluminum. Bookings trajectory has improved towards the end of the second quarter. Segment book to bill for the second quarter of 2020 was 1.11. Backlog increased 25.7% over the prior year quarter, driven mainly by stronger positions in our retail refrigeration and aluminum can shaping equipment businesses.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

The organic revenue decline for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was driven primarily by the impact of COVID-19 on a global basis. This impact began in the first quarter with operations shut down in China and Malaysia as well as interruptions in North American facilities. Intermittent disruptions continued in the second quarter. Customer pricing favorably impacted revenue by approximately 0.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Refrigeration & Food Equipment segment earnings decreased $34.2 million, or 49.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior year period. Segment margin decreased to 5.8% from 9.6% in the prior year period due to substantially reduced revenues and operational inefficiencies associated with COVID-19, increased restructuring expenses and a $3.6 million write-off of assets, partially offset by the gain on sale from the disposition of AMS Chino and other broad-based cost reduction activities.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. Significant factors affecting liquidity are: cash flows generated from operating activities, capital expenditures, acquisitions, dispositions, dividends, repurchases of outstanding shares, adequacy of available commercial paper and bank lines of credit, and the ability to attract long-term capital with satisfactory terms. We generate substantial cash from the operations of our businesses and remain in a strong financial position, with sufficient liquidity available to support continued operations, reinvest in existing businesses and fund strategic acquisitions, while maintaining our prudent capital structure on a short and long-term basis.

Cash Flow Summary

The following table is derived from our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:
 Six Months Ended June 30,
Cash Flows (dollars in thousands)

Investing activities(298,274) (287,445) 
Financing activities213,496  (24,529) 

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased approximately $114.4 million compared to the comparable period in 2019. This increase was primarily driven by improvements in working capital of $84.3 million and permitted deferrals of tax payments partially offset by lower net earnings, excluding the impact of depreciation, amortization, loss on assets held for sale and gain on sale of a business.

We participated in certain government economic stabilization programs to enhance our liquidity. We deferred approximately $40 million of U.S. and state income tax payments from the second to the third quarter of 2020. Additionally, under the U.S. CARES Act, we deferred approximately $10 million of payroll taxes in the second quarter to be paid equally in the fourth quarters of 2021 and 2022.

Adjusted Working Capital: We believe adjusted working capital (a non-GAAP measure calculated as accounts receivable, plus inventory, less accounts payable) provides a meaningful measure of our operational results by showing changes caused solely by revenue.

Investing Activities

Cash provided by or used in investing activities generally results from cash outflows for capital expenditures and acquisitions, offset by proceeds from sales of businesses and property, plant and equipment. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we used cash in investing activities of $298.3 million and $287.4 million, respectively, driven mainly by the following factors:

Acquisitions: During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we acquired Systech, Soft-Pak, and Em-tec within the Imaging & Identification, Engineered Products, and Pumps & Process Solutions segments, respectively, for $238.8 million, net of cash acquired. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we acquired Belanger, Inc. and All-Flo Pump Company, Limited within the Fueling Solutions and Pumps & Process Solutions segments for $215.3 million, net of cash acquired.

Capital spending: Our capital expenditures decreased $11.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease is in line with our reduced capital spending plan for the year as a result of COVID-19, without deferring strategic ongoing initiatives.

Proceeds from sale of businesses: For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we received proceeds of $16.9 million from the sale of AMS Chino within the Refrigeration & Food Equipment segment. We will pay an approximately $1.5 million working capital adjustment in the third quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we received proceeds of $24.2 million from the sale of Finder in the second quarter of 2019.

We anticipate that capital expenditures and any acquisitions we make through the remainder of 2020 will be funded from available cash and internally generated funds and through the issuance of commercial paper, use of lines of credit or public or private debt or equity markets, as necessary.

Financing Activities

Our cash flow from financing activities generally relates to the use of cash for the repurchase of our common stock and payments of dividends, offset by net borrowing activity. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, cash provided by financing activities was $213.5 million and used in financing activities was $24.5 million, respectively, with the activity primarily attributable to the following:

Repurchase of common stock: During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we used $52.9 million to repurchase 548,659 shares, all of which were purchased in the first quarter. We suspended further share repurchases in the second quarter as a result of business uncertainty related to COVID-19. We lifted this suspension beginning in the second half of the year. There were no share repurchases during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Long-term debt, commercial paper and notes payable: During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we borrowed $500 million under the $1.0 billion five-year unsecured revolving credit facility ("Credit Agreement") in the first quarter which was subsequently repaid during the second quarter. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we also received net proceeds from commercial paper of $420.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we received net proceeds from commercial paper of $137.4 million primarily to fund the acquisition of Belanger.

Dividend payments: Dividends paid to shareholders during the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $141.6 million as compared to $139.7 million during the same period in 2019. Our dividends paid per common share increased 2.1% to $0.98 during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $0.96 during the same period in 2019. The number of common shares outstanding decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 as a result of share repurchases completed in 2020 and the second half of 2019.

Payments to settle employee tax obligations: Payments to settle tax obligations from the exercise of share-based awards declined $10.0 million compared to the prior year period. The decrease is primarily due to the decrease in the number of shares exercised partially offset by an increase in the average stock price compared to the prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Free Cash Flow

In addition to measuring our cash flow generation and usage based upon the operating, investing and financing classifications included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, we also measure free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) which represents net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures. We believe that free cash flow is an important measure of operating performance because it provides management and investors a measurement of cash generated from operations that is available for mandatory payment obligations and investment opportunities, such as funding acquisitions, paying dividends, repaying debt and repurchasing our common stock.

The following table reconciles our free cash flow to cash flow provided by operating activities:
 Six Months Ended June 30,
Free Cash Flow (dollars in thousands)
20202019
Cash flow provided by operating activities$347,672  $233,233  
Less: Capital expenditures(79,171) (91,092) 
Free cash flow$268,501  $142,141  
Free cash flow as a percentage of revenue8.5 %4.0 %
Free cash flow as a percentage of net earnings89.2 %46.8 %
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we generated free cash flow of $268.5 million, representing 8.5% of revenue and 89.2% of net earnings. Free cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $126.4 million compared to the prior year period, primarily due to higher operating cash flow primarily as a result of improvements in working capital and permitted deferrals of tax payments, as previously noted, and lower capital expenditures.

We maintained positive free cash flow in the second quarter by proactively managing our working capital. We will continue this focus in the second half of the year and beyond. We also continued our plan to significantly reduce our capital spend for the year, without deferring strategic ongoing initiatives. We reduced discretionary spend and other costs to align with current demand levels in order to support strong free cash flow generation. We participated in certain government economic stabilization programs to enhance our liquidity by deferring tax payments and utilizing job retention subsidies.

Capitalization

We use commercial paper borrowings for general corporate purposes, including the funding of acquisitions and the repurchase of our common stock. As of June 30, 2020, we maintained a Credit Agreement with a syndicate of banks with an expiration date of October 4, 2024. The Credit Agreement is used as liquidity back-up for our commercial paper program.

Beginning in early-to-mid-March 2020, the commercial paper market began to experience very high levels of volatility as a result of COVID-19 related uncertainties. Volatility was most pronounced for "Tier-2" issuers, such as Dover, and impacted both market access and pricing. As a result, on March 16, 2020, the Company borrowed $500 million under the Credit Agreement. Proceeds from the borrowing were used to repay all of the Company's outstanding commercial paper and for general corporate purposes. We subsequently repaid the $500 million using proceeds from commercial paper as volatility in the commercial paper market stabilized and we resumed borrowing commercial paper.

In the spirit of prudent liquidity management, on May 6, 2020 we also entered into a $450.0 million 364-day revolving credit facility ("Short-term Credit Agreement") which expires on May 5, 2021. The Short-term Credit Agreement is intended to be used primarily for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Company may elect to have loans under the Short-term Credit Agreement which bear interest at a base rate plus a specified applicable margin. We have not undertaken any borrowings under this facility.

Under the Credit Agreement and the Short-term Credit Agreement, we are required to pay a facility fee and to maintain an interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated net interest expense of not less than 3.0 to 1.0. We were in compliance with this covenant and our other long-term debt covenants at June 30, 2020 and had a coverage ratio of 10.7 to 1. We are not aware of any potential impairment to our liquidity and expect to remain in compliance with all of our debt covenants. Additionally, our earliest long-term debt maturity is in 2025.

We also have a current shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that allows for the issuance of additional debt securities that may be utilized in one or more offerings on terms to be determined at the time of the offering. Net proceeds of any offering would be used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of existing indebtedness, capital expenditures and acquisitions.

At June 30, 2020, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $649.0 million, of which $274.8 million was held outside the United States. At December 31, 2019, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $397.3 million, of which $273.1 million was held outside the United States. Cash and cash equivalents are invested in highly liquid investment-grade money market instruments and bank deposits with maturities of three months or less. We invest any cash in excess of near-term requirements in money market instruments or short-term investments, which consist of investment grade time deposits with original maturity dates at the time of purchase of no greater than three months.  

We utilize the net debt to net capitalization calculation (a non-GAAP measure) to assess our overall financial leverage and capacity and believe the calculation is useful to investors for the same reason. Net debt represents total debt minus cash and cash equivalents. Net capitalization represents net debt plus stockholders' equity. The following table provides a reconciliation of net debt to net capitalization to the most directly comparable GAAP measures:

Net capitalization$5,946,365  $5,705,823  
Net debt to net capitalization48.0 %46.8 %

Our net debt to net capitalization ratio increased to 48.0% at June 30, 2020 compared to 46.8% at December 31, 2019. Net debt increased $183.7 million during the period primarily due to an increase in commercial paper partially offset by an increase in cash and cash equivalents. Stockholders' equity increased $56.9 million primarily as a result of earnings during the period, partially offset by dividends paid, share repurchases and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Operating cash flow, existing capacity of our Credit Agreement and our Short-term Credit Agreement and access to capital markets are expected to satisfy our various cash flow requirements, including acquisitions, capital expenditures and share repurchases.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related public financial information are based on the application of GAAP which requires the use of estimates, assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our public disclosures, including information regarding contingencies, risk and our financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions conform, to GAAP and is consistently applied. We review valuations based on estimates for reasonableness on a consistent basis.

Recent Accounting Standards

See Part 1, Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 20 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements.  The adoption of recent accounting standards as included in Note 20 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements has not had, and is not expected to have, a significant impact on our revenue, earnings or liquidity.

Special Notes Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, especially "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," contains "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements in this document other than statements of historical fact are statements that are, or could be deemed, “forward-looking” statements. Some of these statements may be indicated by words such as “may”, “anticipate”, “expect”, believe”, “intend”, “guidance”, “estimates”, “suggest”, “will”, “plan”, “should”, “would”, “could”, “forecast” and other words and terms that use the future tense or have a similar meaning. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and are subject to numerous important risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, the impacts of COVID-19, or other future pandemics, on the global economy and on our customers, suppliers, employees, business and cash flows, other general economic conditions and conditions in the particular markets in which we operate, changes in customer demand and capital spending, competitive factors and pricing pressures, our ability to develop and launch new products in a cost-effective manner, changes in law, including the effect of U.S. tax reform and developments with respect to trade policy and tariffs, our ability to identify and complete acquisitions and integrate and realize synergies from newly acquired businesses, the impact of interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations, capital allocation plans and changes in those plans, including with respect to dividends, share repurchases, investments in research and development, capital expenditures and acquisitions, our ability to derive expected benefits from restructuring, productivity initiatives and other cost reduction actions, changes in material costs or the supply of input materials, the impact of legal compliance risks and litigation, including with respect to product quality and safety, cybersecurity and privacy, our ability to capture and protect intellectual property rights, and various other factors that are described in our periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Disclosures
In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, we also disclose non-GAAP information which we believe provides useful information to investors. Segment EBITDA, segment EBITDA margin, free cash flow, free cash flow as a percentage of revenue, free cash flow as a percentage of earnings from continuing operations, net debt, net capitalization, net debt to net capitalization ratio, adjusted working capital, organic revenue growth and rightsizing costs are not financial measures under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for earnings, cash flows from operating activities, debt or equity, working capital, revenue or restructuring costs as determined in accordance with GAAP, and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
We believe that segment EBITDA and segment EBITDA margin are useful to investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating ongoing operating profitability as they exclude the depreciation and amortization expense related primarily to capital expenditures and acquisitions that occurred in prior years, as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors. Segment EBITDA is calculated by adding back depreciation and amortization expense to segment earnings, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. We do not present segment net income because corporate expenses, interest and taxes are not allocated at a segment level. Segment EBITDA margin is calculated as segment EBITDA divided by segment revenue.
We believe the net debt to net capitalization ratio and free cash flow are important measures of liquidity. Net debt to net capitalization is helpful in evaluating our capital structure and the amount of leverage we employ. Free cash flow and free cash flow ratios provide both management and investors a measurement of cash generated from operations that is available to fund acquisitions, pay dividends, repay debt and repurchase our common stock. Free cash flow as a percentage of revenue equals free cash flow divided by revenue. Free cash flow as a percentage of net earnings equals free cash flow divided by net earnings. We believe that reporting adjusted working capital, which is calculated as accounts receivable, plus inventory, less accounts payable, provides a meaningful measure of our operational results by showing the changes caused solely by revenue. We believe that reporting organic revenue growth, which excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and the impact of acquisitions and divestitures, provides a useful comparison of our revenue performance and trends between periods. We believe that reporting rightsizing costs, which include restructuring and other charges, is important as it enables management and investors to better understand the financial impact of our broad-based cost reduction and operational improvement initiatives.
Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures can be found above in this Item 2, Management's Discussion & Analysis.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
