Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of operating results for the interim periods presented. Adjustments consist of normal and recurring accruals. The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and consequently do not include all disclosures required for annual financial statements presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2016. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
In connection with the strategic portfolio repositioning actions undertaken over the last eighteen months to transform the Company into a more focused enterprise, its businesses and organization were realigned. Beginning in fiscal 2017, the Company now reports three segments: Automation Solutions, and Climate Technologies and Tools & Home Products which together comprise the Commercial & Residential Solutions business. The Automation Solutions segment includes the former Process Management segment and the remaining businesses in the former Industrial Automation segment, except for the hermetic motors business, which is now included in the Climate Technologies segment. The new Tools & Home Products segment consists of the businesses previously reported in the Commercial & Residential Solutions segment in fiscal 2016. See Notes 10 and 12.
In the first quarter of 2017, the Company adopted updates to ASC Subtopic 835-30, Interest-Imputation of Interest, which require presentation of debt issuance costs as a deduction from the related debt liability rather than within other assets. This update was adopted on a retrospective basis and did not materially impact the Company’s financial statements.

Following is a discussion regarding the Company’s use of financial instruments:
Hedging Activities – As of December 31, 2016, the notional amount of foreign currency hedge positions was approximately $1.1 billion, and commodity hedge contracts totaled approximately $85 million (primarily 44 million pounds of copper and aluminum). All derivatives receiving deferral accounting are cash flow hedges. The majority of hedging gains and losses deferred as of December 31, 2016 are expected to be recognized over the next 12 months as the underlying forecasted transactions occur. Gains and losses on foreign currency derivatives reported in other deductions, net reflect hedges of balance sheet exposures that do not receive deferral accounting. The following gains and losses are included in earnings and other comprehensive income (OCI) for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 (in millions):

Regardless of whether derivatives receive deferral accounting, the Company expects hedging gains or losses to be essentially offset by losses or gains on the related underlying exposures. The amounts ultimately recognized will differ from those presented above for open positions, which remain subject to ongoing market price fluctuations until settlement. Derivatives receiving deferral accounting are highly effective and no amounts were excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Hedge ineffectiveness was immaterial for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.
Fair Value Measurement – Valuations for all derivatives and the Company's long-term debt fall within Level 2 of the GAAP valuation hierarchy. As of December 31, 2016, the fair value of long-term debt was $4,358 million, which exceeded the carrying value by $291 million. At December 31, 2016, the fair values of commodity contracts and foreign currency contracts were reported in other current assets and accrued expenses.

Counterparties to derivatives arrangements are companies with investment-grade credit ratings. The Company has bilateral collateral arrangements with counterparties with credit rating-based posting thresholds that vary depending on the arrangement. If credit ratings on the Company's debt fall below preestablished levels, counterparties can require immediate full collateralization of all derivatives in net liability positions. The maximum amount that could potentially have been required was $29 million. The Company also can demand full collateralization of derivatives in net asset positions should any counterparty credit ratings fall below certain thresholds. No collateral was posted with counterparties and none was held by the Company as of December 31, 2016.

The decrease in Other for the first quarter is primarily due to a favorable foreign currency transactions impact of $34 million reflecting gains of $13 million in the current year compared with losses of $21 million in the prior year, partially offset by higher acquisition-related costs.

9.
Restructuring expense reflects costs associated with the Company’s ongoing efforts to improve operational efficiency and deploy assets globally in order to remain competitive on a worldwide basis. The Company expects full year 2017 restructuring expense to be approximately $50 million. This includes $11 million incurred to date, as well as costs to complete actions initiated before the end of the first quarter and actions anticipated to be approved and initiated during the remainder of the year. Costs for the three months ended December 31, 2016 largely relate to restructuring of the global cost structure consistent with the current level of economic activity, as well as the redeployment of resources for future growth.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 

OVERVIEW
The Company previously announced strategic actions to streamline its portfolio, drive growth and accelerate value creation for shareholders. These portfolio repositioning actions resulted in the sale of the network power systems business which closed in the first quarter of 2017, and the sale of the power generation, motors and drives business which closed in the second quarter of 2017. These businesses have been reported within discontinued operations for all periods presented.

First quarter sales from continuing operations were $3,216 million, down 4 percent. Underlying sales were down 3 percent reflecting stabilizing conditions in energy related markets and improvement in HVAC, refrigeration and U.S. construction markets.
Earnings from continuing operations common stockholders were $364 million, up 20 percent, and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.56, up 22 percent, including an income tax benefit of $47 million ($0.07 per share). Net earnings common stockholders were $309 million, down 12 percent, and diluted earnings per share were $0.48, down 9 percent, reflecting the impact of discontinued operations.

Net sales for the first quarter of 2017 were $3,216 million, a decrease of $121 million, or 4 percent compared with $3,337 million in 2016. Underlying sales decreased 3 percent ($88 million) on 2 percent lower volume and 1 percent lower price. Foreign currency translation subtracted 1 percent ($40 million) and acquisitions added $7 million. Underlying sales decreased 3 percent in the U.S. and 2 percent internationally. Asia was up 7 percent (China up 17 percent), while Europe decreased 2 percent, Latin America was down 19 percent, Canada decreased 20 percent and Middle East/Africa was down 5 percent.

Cost of sales for the first quarter of 2017 were $1,851 million, a decrease of $72 million compared with $1,923 million in 2016 primarily due to reduced sales volume and the impact of foreign currency translation. Gross profit margin of 42.4 percent was flat compared with 2016, as savings from cost reduction and containment actions offset deleverage on the reduced sales volume, lower price and unfavorable mix.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses of $822 million decreased $57 million compared with the prior year and SG&A as a percent of sales of 25.5 percent improved 0.9 percentage points, primarily due to savings from cost reduction actions and lower incentive stock compensation of $26 million which reflects the impact of changes in the Company's stock price, partially offset by deleverage on lower volume.

Other deductions, net were $33 million in 2017, a decrease of $21 million due to favorable foreign currency transactions of $13 million in the current year compared with a loss of $21 million in the prior year, partially offset by higher acquisition-related costs. See Note 8.

Pretax earnings from continuing operations of $464 million increased $30 million, or 7 percent. Earnings increased $31 million in Commercial & Residential Solutions and decreased $15 million in Automation Solutions. See Note 10 and the following Business Segments discussion.

Income taxes were $94 million for 2017 and $127 million for 2016, resulting in effective tax rates of 20 percent and 29 percent, respectively. The 9 percentage point decrease versus the prior year is largely due to a $47 million tax benefit generated from restructuring a foreign subsidiary. The tax rate for full year 2017 is estimated at 29 percent including the tax benefit.

Earnings from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders were $364 million, up 20 percent, and diluted earnings per share were $0.56, up 22 percent.

Net earnings common stockholders in the first quarter of 2017 were $309 million, down 12 percent, compared with $349 million in the prior year, and earnings per share were $0.48, down 9 percent compared with $0.53 in 2016. Combined, the gain on the network power divestiture and the other items included in discontinued operations described below negatively impacted both net earnings and earnings per share comparisons 14 percentage points.

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations includes a net loss of $(55) million ($0.08 per share) in the first quarter of 2017 and net earnings of $46 million ($0.07 per share) in 2016. In the first quarter of 2017, discontinued operations consists of net earnings from operations of $14 million, an after-tax gain on divestiture of the network power systems business of $86 million ($465 million pretax), income tax expense of $144 million for repatriation of sales proceeds, a loss of $38 million to write down the power generation, motors and drives business to the sales price less cost to sell, and lower expense of $27 million due to ceasing depreciation and amortization for the discontinued businesses held-for-sale. Earnings for the first quarter of 2016 include net earnings from operations of $68 million and separation costs related to the divestitures of $22 million. See Note 12.

The Company expects to recognize approximately $100 million of income tax expense on completion of the sale of the power generation, motors and drives business, which closed on January 31, 2017, subject to finalization of several matters and post-closing adjustments.

In fiscal 2017, the Company expects to pay income taxes of approximately $600 million as a result of completing the sales of the network power systems and power generation, motors and drives businesses.

Automation Solutions sales were $2.0 billion in the first quarter, a decrease of $195 million, or 9 percent. Underlying sales decreased 8 percent ($167 million) on 7 percent lower volume and 1 percent lower price. Foreign currency translation had a 1 percent ($28 million) unfavorable impact. Sales for Measurement & Analytical Instrumentation, Valves, Actuators & Regulators, and Process Control Systems & Solutions decreased $177 million, or 10 percent compared with the prior year on lower capital and operational spending by global oil and gas customers, particularly in upstream markets, reflecting the impact of low oil prices and excess supply. Industrial Solutions sales decreased $18 million, or 5 percent on weakness in industrial spending and upstream oil and gas markets. Chemical, power and life sciences markets remained favorable. Underlying sales decreased 9 percent in the U.S. and 5 percent in Europe. Sales decreased 2 percent in Asia (China up 4 percent), 29 percent in Latin America and 26 percent in Canada. Sales in Middle East/Africa increased 3 percent. Earnings were $326 million, a decrease of $15 million on the decline in volume, while margin improved 0.8 percentage points reflecting savings from cost reduction actions and favorable foreign currency transactions of $18 million in the current year versus a loss of $16 million in the prior year, partially offset by deleverage on the lower volume. Lower price was substantially offset by materials cost containment. Results will remain under pressure during the second quarter due to continued low levels of customer spending, with market conditions expected to improve during the fiscal year.

Climate Technologies sales were $859 million in the first quarter, an increase of $73 million, or 9 percent. Global air conditioning sales were strong, led by strength in the U.S. and Asia, robust growth in China partially due to easier comparisons, and solid growth in Europe. Global refrigeration sales were solid due to robust growth in China on increased adoption of energy-efficient solutions, while sales decreased slightly in the U.S. and moderately in Europe. Sales of temperature controls, sensors and solutions also increased. Tools & Home Products sales of $393 million in the first quarter were flat (up $1 million). Professional tools sales were up moderately and wet/dry vacuums had solid growth as favorable conditions continued in U.S. construction markets. Sales were flat for food waste disposers while the storage business declined moderately. Overall, underlying sales increased 4 percent in the U.S., 7 percent in Europe and 26 percent in Asia (China up 40 percent). Sales increased 3 percent in Latin America, were flat in Canada and decreased 29 percent in Middle East/Africa. Earnings were $249 million, an increase of $31 million including $28 million in Climate Technologies, and margin improved 1.4 percentage points due to increased volume and resulting leverage, savings from cost reduction actions and lower customer accommodation costs of $6 million. Lower price and unfavorable mix partially offset the increase. The outlook for global demand in air conditioning, refrigeration and U.S. construction markets is favorable, supporting the expectation for low to mid-single digit growth in fiscal 2017.

The Company's working capital, current ratio, and debt-to-capital improved due to $4 billion of proceeds received from the sale of the network power systems business. These funds will be used to complete the previously announced Valves & Controls acquisition. See Note 11. The interest coverage ratio (earnings before income taxes plus interest expense, divided by interest expense) of 9.9X for the first three months of 2017 compares to 9.1X for the first three months of 2016.

Operating cash flow from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2017 was $410 million, an increase of $24 million compared with $386 million in the prior year reflecting higher earnings and lower working capital investment. Free cash flow from continuing operations of $310 million (operating cash flow of $410 million less capital expenditures of $100 million) increased $48 million, reflecting the increase in operating cash flow and lower capital expenditures in 2017. Operating cash flow funded dividends of $311 million and capital expenditures. Free cash flow from continuing operations was $262 million in 2016 (operating cash flow of $386 million less capital expenditures of $124 million).

Total cash provided by operating activities was $238 million including the impact of discontinued operations, and decreased $249 million compared with $487 million in the prior year. Total operating cash flow was reduced by $139 million and $24 million in the first quarter of 2017 and 2016, respectively, due to income taxes and fees paid related to the portfolio repositioning actions.

Emerson's financial structure provides the flexibility necessary to achieve its strategic objectives. The Company has been successful in efficiently deploying cash where needed worldwide to fund operations, complete acquisitions and sustain long-term growth. The Company believes that sufficient funds will be available to meet the Company’s needs in the foreseeable future through operating cash flow, existing resources, short- and long-term debt capacity or backup credit lines.

FISCAL 2017 OUTLOOK
Although significant challenges are expected to persist throughout 2017, the Company’s first quarter results and recent order trends reflect positive momentum within its two business platforms. Improving market conditions and a broad-based increase in demand within many global served markets are expected to benefit the Company in the second half of the year. Considering these factors, the Company expects full-year fiscal 2017 net sales to be down 1 to 3 percent, with underlying sales flat to down 2 percent excluding unfavorable currency translation of approximately 1 percent. Earnings per share from continuing operations are expected to be $2.47 to $2.62 including a $0.07 income tax benefit in the first quarter. Automation Solutions net sales are expected to be down 5 to 7 percent, with underlying sales down 3 to 5 percent excluding unfavorable currency translation of approximately 2 percent. Commercial & Residential Solutions net and underlying sales are expected to be up 3 to 5 percent. The outlook contained herein reflects the Company’s expectations for its consolidated results from continuing operations, and excludes any impact related to the pending acquisition of Pentair's Valves & Controls business.

Statements in this report that are not strictly historical may be "forward-looking" statements, which involve risks and uncertainties, and Emerson undertakes no obligation to update any such statements to reflect later developments. These risks and uncertainties include economic and currency conditions, market demand, pricing, protection of intellectual property, and competitive and technological factors, among others, which are set forth in the “Risk Factors” of Part I, Item 1, and the "Safe Harbor Statement" of Part II, Item 7, to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2016 and in subsequent reports filed with the SEC, which are hereby incorporated by reference.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures 

The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner. This system also is designed to ensure information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company's certifying officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on an evaluation performed, the certifying officers have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover all failures of persons within the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries to report material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company's reports.
There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
