ENPRO INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Overview, Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Authoritative Accounting Guidance
Overview
EnPro Industries, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” “EnPro,” or the “Company”) is a leader in designing, developing, manufacturing, servicing, and marketing proprietary engineered industrial products and serves a wide variety of customers in varied industries around the world. Over the past several years, we have executed several strategic initiatives to change the portfolio of businesses that we operate to focus on materials science-based businesses with leading technologies, compelling margins, strong cash flow, and high levels of recurring revenue that serve markets with favorable secular tailwinds. These initiatives have increased our ability to provide solutions to the semiconductor, life sciences, and other technology industries.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited, and certain related information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. They were prepared following the same policies and procedures used in the preparation of our annual financial statements except as disclosed below and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of results for the periods presented. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020 was derived from the audited financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the fiscal year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 included within our annual report on Form 10-K.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosures regarding contingent assets and liabilities at period end and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
All intercompany accounts and transactions between our consolidated operations have been eliminated.
During March 2021, we identified two errors related to our accounting for the disposal of the Air Springs portion of the heavy-duty trucking business that closed in the fourth quarter of 2020. Such errors resulted in an understatement of the pre-tax loss on disposal for this disposition by approximately $2.0 million and an overstatement of net income by approximately $1.5 million in our previously issued consolidated financial statements for calendar 2020. Net income for calendar 2020 was $184.8 million. We evaluated the errors and concluded that they were not material to our previously issued consolidated financial statements and recorded the pre-tax loss on disposal as an out-of-period adjustment in other income (expense) in our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the first quarter of 2021.
Beginning with the first quarter of 2021, we modified the presentation of our Consolidated Statements of Operations to move income from discontinued operations directly following income from continuing operations before calculating a net income subtotal. Consistent with this change in presentation, we also began the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows with net income rather than net income attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. We have revised the prior period presented for these two financial statements to conform with this modified presentation. There is no impact to the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a result of this presentation change.
In January 2021, we adopted a standard that simplified the accounting for income taxes in nine unrelated areas. The adoption had no significant impact to our financial statements.
2. Acquisition and Divestiture
Acquisition
On October 26, 2020, a subsidiary of EnPro formed for this purpose (the "Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary") acquired all of the equity securities of Alluxa, Inc. ("Alluxa"), a privately held company. Alluxa is an industrial technology company that provides specialized optical filters and thin-film coatings for the most challenging applications in the industrial technology, life sciences, and semiconductor markets. Alluxa's products are developed through a proprietary coating process using state-of-the-art advanced equipment. Alluxa’s global distribution capabilities support the company’s international reach, serving customers
4
across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Founded in 2007, Alluxa has two locations in California and is headquartered in Santa Rosa, California. Alluxa is included with the Advanced Surface Technologies segment.
The following pro forma condensed consolidated financial results of operations for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are presented as if the acquisition had been completed prior to 2020:
Quarter Ended September 30, 2020 | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 | ||||||||||
(in millions) | |||||||||||
Pro forma net sales | $ | 276.6 | $ | 821.6 | |||||||
Pro forma loss from continuing operations | $ | (21.9) | $ | (17.0) |
These amounts have been calculated after applying our accounting policies and adjusting the results of Alluxa to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets had been applied prior to 2020 as well as additional interest expense to reflect financing required, together with the consequential tax effects. These pro forma financial results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not reflect the effect of synergies that would have been expected to result from the integration of this acquisition. The pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that actually would have resulted had the acquisition occurred prior to 2020, or of future results of the consolidated entities.
Divestiture
On September 2, 2021, we sold certain assets and liabilities of our polymer components business unit, which was principally located in Houston, Texas and included in our Sealing Technologies segment. Sales for the business included in our 2021 consolidated results through the date of the sale was approximately $20 million. As a result of the sale, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $19.5 million in other income (expense) on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
3. Income Taxes
Our income tax expense and resulting effective tax rate are based upon the estimated annual effective tax rates applicable for the respective periods adjusted for the effect of items required to be treated as discrete in the interim periods. This estimated annual effective tax rate is affected by the relative proportions of revenue and income before taxes in the jurisdictions in which we operate. Based on the geographical mix of earnings, our annual effective tax rate fluctuates based on the portion of our profits earned in each jurisdiction.
The effective tax rates for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were 35.4% and 25.4%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily the result of non-deductible tax goodwill related to the divestiture in our Sealing Technologies segment and higher tax rates in most foreign jurisdictions.
The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were 21.9% and (17.9)%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily the result of the release of a valuation allowance on certain foreign net operating losses, the favorable conclusion of the IRS examination described below, and the release of certain uncertain tax positions, partially offset by higher tax rates in most foreign jurisdictions. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 is primarily the result of lower pre-tax income overall, a geographical mix of lower pre-tax income in the U.S. combined with the minimum tax on certain non-U.S. earnings, and an increase of valuation allowance against certain net operating losses, partially offset by higher tax rates in most foreign jurisdictions.
In June 2017, the IRS began an examination of our 2014 through 2017 U.S. federal income tax returns. The IRS audit concluded during the quarter ended June 30, 2021. As a result of the conclusion of the audit, we received a cash refund of $24.7 million plus $1.2 million of applicable interest in October of 2021. These amounts were included in income tax receivable and prepaid expenses and other current assets, respectively, on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2021. Various foreign and state tax returns are also currently under examination and some of these exams may conclude within the next twelve months. The final outcomes of these audits are not yet determinable; however, management believes that any assessments that may arise will not have a material effect on our financial results.

We use the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method of valuing certain of our inventories. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs, which are subject to change until the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

On September 25, 2019, we entered into a First Amendment (the "First Amendment") to our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement”) among EnPro Industries, Inc. and EnPro Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“EnPro Holdings”), as borrowers, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer. The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year, senior secured revolving credit facility of $400.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a five-year, senior secured term loan facility of $150.0 million (the "Term Loan Facility" and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the "Facilities"). The Amended Credit Agreement also provides that the borrowers may seek incremental term loans and/or additional revolving credit commitments in an amount equal to the greater of $225.0 million and 100% of consolidated EBITDA (as defined) for the most recently ended four-quarter period for which we have reported financial results, plus additional amounts based on a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio.
Initially, borrowings under the Facilities bore interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.50% or base rate plus 0.50%, with the interest rates under the Facilities being subject to incremental increases based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio. In addition, a commitment fee accrues with respect to the unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility at an annual rate of 0.175%, which rate is also subject to incremental increase or decrease based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio.
The Term Loan Facility amortizes on a quarterly basis in an annual amount equal to 2.50% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan Facility in each of years one through three, 5.00% of such original principal amount in year four, and 1.25% of such original principal amount in each of the first three quarters of year five, with the remaining outstanding principal amount payable at maturity.
The Facilities are subject to prepayment with the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty or condemnation events, and non-permitted debt issuances.
EnPro and EnPro Holdings are the permitted borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility. We have the ability to add foreign subsidiaries as borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility for up to $100.0 million (or its foreign currency equivalent) in aggregate borrowings, subject to certain conditions. Each of our domestic, consolidated subsidiaries are required to guarantee the obligations of the borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility, and each of our existing domestic, consolidated subsidiaries has entered into the Credit Agreement to provide such a guarantee.
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority pledge of certain assets. The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants and required financial ratios including a maximum consolidated total net leverage and a minimum consolidated interest coverage as defined in the Credit Agreement. We were in compliance with all covenants of the Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2021.
The borrowing availability under the Revolving Credit Facility at September 30, 2021 was $388.5 million after giving consideration to $11.5 million of outstanding letters of credit. At September 30, 2021, we had $142.5 million outstanding on our Term Loan Facility borrowings.
Senior Notes
In October 2018, we completed the offering of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Senior Notes").
The Senior Notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of EnPro and mature on October 15, 2026. Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 5.75% per annum and is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing on April 15, 2019. The Senior Notes are required to be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of EnPro's existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries that is a borrower under, or guarantees, our indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility or guarantees any other Capital Markets Indebtedness (as defined in the indenture governing the Senior Notes) of EnPro or any of the guarantors.
As of October 15, 2021, we may, on any one or more occasion, redeem all or part of the Senior Notes at specified redemption prices plus accrued and unpaid interest.
Each holder of the Senior Notes may require us to repurchase some or all of the Senior Notes held by such holder for cash upon the occurrence of a defined "change of control" event.
8
The indenture governing the Senior Notes includes covenants that restrict our ability to engage in certain activities, including incurring additional indebtedness, paying dividends, and repurchasing shares of our common stock, subject in each case to specified exceptions and qualifications set forth in the indenture. As of September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants of the indenture governing the Senior Notes.

We intend to declare regular quarterly cash dividends on our common stock, as determined by our board of directors, after taking into account our current and projected cash flows, earnings, financial position, debt covenants and other relevant factors. In accordance with the board of directors' declaration, total dividend payments of $16.8 million were made during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
In November 2021, our board of directors declared a dividend of $0.27 per share, payable on December 15, 2021 to all shareholders of record as of December 1, 2021.
In October 2018, our board of directors authorized the expenditure of up to $50.0 million for the repurchase of our outstanding common shares. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 we repurchased 0.1 million shares for $5.3 million. Prior to the expiration of the authorization in October 2020, total repurchases under the October 2018 authorization aggregated 0.3 million shares for $20.3 million.
In October 2020, our board of directors authorized the expenditure of up to $50.0 million for the repurchase of our outstanding common shares through October 2022. We have not made any repurchases under this authorization.
In February 2021, we issued stock options to certain key executives for 0.1 million common shares with an exercise price of $80.00 per share. The options vest pro-rata on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date, subject to continued employment. No options have a term greater than 10 years.
11
We determine the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing formula as of the grant date. Key inputs into this formula include expected term, expected volatility, expected dividend yield, and the risk-free interest rate. This fair value is amortized on a straight line basis over the vesting period.
The expected term represents the period that our stock options are expected to be outstanding, and is determined based on historical experience of similar awards, given the contractual terms of the awards, vesting schedules, and expectations of future employee behavior. The fair value of stock options reflects a volatility factor calculated using historical market data for EnPro's common stock. The time frame used was approximated as a six-year period from the grant date for the awards. The dividend assumption is based on our expectations as of the grant date. We base the risk-free interest rate on the yield to maturity at the time of the stock option grant on zero-coupon U.S. government bonds having a remaining life equal to the option's expected life.
The option awards issued in 2021 had a fair value of $27.46 per share at their grant date. The following assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the 2021 option awards:
Average expected term | 6 years | ||||
Expected volatility | 40.29 | % | |||
Risk-free interest rate | 1.02 | % | |||
Expected dividend yield | 1.35 | % |
11. Business Segment Information
We aggregate our operating businesses into three reportable segments. The factors considered in determining our reportable segments are the economic similarity of the businesses, the nature of products sold or services provided, the production processes and the types of customers and distribution methods. Our reportable segments are managed separately based on these differences.
Our Sealing Technologies segment designs, manufactures and sells sealing products, including: metallic, non-metallic and composite material gaskets, dynamic seals, compression packing, resilient metal seals, elastomeric seals, custom-engineered mechanical seals for applications in the aerospace industry and other markets, hydraulic components, expansion joints, sanitary gaskets, hoses and fittings for the hygienic process industries, fluid transfer products for the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries, hole forming products, bellows and bellows assemblies, PTFE products, and heavy-duty commercial vehicle parts used in wheel-end and suspension components. These products are used in a variety of industries, including chemical and petrochemical processing, pulp and paper processing, power generation, food and pharmaceutical processing, primary metal manufacturing, mining, water and waste treatment, heavy-duty trucking, aerospace, medical, filtration and semiconductor fabrication. In many of these industries, performance and durability are vital for safety and environmental protection. Many of our products are used in highly demanding applications, e.g., where extreme temperatures, extreme pressures, corrosive environments, strict tolerances, and/or worn equipment make product performance difficult.
Our Advanced Surface Technologies segment applies proprietary technologies, processes, and capabilities to deliver highly differentiated suites of products and services for the most challenging applications in high growth markets. The segment’s products and services are used in highly demanding environments requiring performance, precision and repeatability, with a low tolerance for failure. The segment’s services include cleaning, coating, testing, refurbishment and verification services for critical components and assemblies used in state-of-the-art advanced node semiconductor manufacturing equipment. It designs, manufactures and sells specialized optical filters and thin-film coatings for the most challenging applications in the industrial technology, life sciences, and semiconductor markets and complex front-end wafer processing sub-systems, new and refurbished electrostatic chuck pedestals, thin film coatings, and edge-welded metal bellows for the semiconductor equipment industry and for critical applications in the space, aerospace and defense markets.
Our Engineered Materials segment includes operations that design, manufacture and sell self-lubricating, non-rolling metal-polymer, engineered plastics, and fiber reinforced composite bearing products, precision engineered components and lubrication systems for reciprocating compressors and engines, critical service flange gaskets, seals and electrical flange isolation kits used in high-pressure wellhead equipment, flow lines, water injection lines, sour hydrocarbon process applications, and crude oil and natural gas pipeline/transmission line applications. These products are used in a wide range of applications, including the automotive, aerospace, pharmaceutical, pulp and paper, natural gas, health, power generation, machine tools, air treatment, refining, petrochemical and general industrial markets.
12
We measure operating performance based on segment earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other selected items ("Adjusted Segment EBITDA"), which is segment revenue reduced by operating expenses and other costs identifiable with the segment, excluding acquisition and divestiture expenses, restructuring costs, impairment charges, non-controlling interest compensation, amortization of the fair value adjustment to acquisition date inventory, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted Segment EBITDA is not defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Corporate expenses include general corporate administrative costs. Expenses not directly attributable to the segments, corporate expenses, net interest expense, gains and losses related to the sale of assets, and income taxes are not included in the computation of Adjusted Segment EBITDA. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those for EnPro.
Non-controlling interest compensation allocation represents compensation expense associated with a portion of the rollover equity from the acquisitions of LeanTeq and Alluxa being subject to reduction for certain types of employment terminations of the sellers. This expense is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and is directly related to the terms of the acquisitions. This expense will continue to be recognized as compensation expense over the term of the put and call options associated with the acquisitions unless certain employment terminations have occurred.

Backlog
As of September 30, 2021, the aggregate amount of transaction price of remaining performance obligations, or backlog, on a consolidated basis was $298.3 million. Approximately 96% of these obligations are expected to be satisfied within one year. There is no certainty these orders will result in actual sales at the times or in the amounts ordered. In addition, for most of our business, this total is not particularly predictive of future performance because of our short lead times and some seasonality.
Revenue by End Market
Due to the diversified nature of our business and the wide array of products that we offer, we sell into a number of end markets. Underlying economic conditions within these markets are a major driver of our segments' sales performance.

In 2021, we refined the end market classification of certain sales in the Engineered Materials segment for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020. This refinement resulted in a reduction in sales reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 in the automotive and power generation markets of approximately $2.6 million and $3.2 million, respectively, with an offsetting increase in the general industrial, and medium duty/heavy duty truck markets of approximately, $4.4 million, and $1.4 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, this refinement resulted in a reduction to the automotive and power generation markets of approximately $6.3 million and $8.6 million, respectively, and an

offsetting increase to our general industrial and medium-duty/heavy-duty truck markets of approximately $10.3 million and $4.6 million, respectively.
12. Derivatives and Hedging
In September 2018, we entered into cross-currency swap agreements (the "Original Swap") with a notional amount of $200.0 million to manage foreign currency risk by effectively converting a portion of the interest payments related to our fixed-rate U.S. Dollar (“USD”)-denominated Senior Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments thereunder, to interest payments on fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt of 172.8 million EUR with a weighted average interest rate of 2.8%, with interest payment dates of March 15 and September 15 of each year. The Original Swap agreement matures on September 15, 2022.
In May 2019, we entered into additional cross-currency swap agreements (the "Additional Swap") with a notional amount of $100.0 million to manage an increased portion of our foreign currency risk by effectively converting a portion of the interest payments related to our fixed-rate USD-denominated Senior Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments thereunder, to interest payments on fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt of 89.6 million EUR with a weighted average interest rate of 3.5%, with interest payment dates of April 15 and October 15 of each year. The Additional Swap agreement matures on October 15, 2026.
During the term of the swap agreements, we will receive semi-annual payments from the counterparties due to the difference between the interest rate on the Senior Notes and the interest rate on the Euro debt underlying each of the swaps. There was no principal exchange at the inception of the arrangements, and there will be no exchange at maturity. At maturity (or earlier at our option), we and the counterparties will settle the swap agreements at their fair value in cash based on the aggregate notional amount and the then-applicable currency exchange rate compared to the exchange rate at the time the swap agreements were entered into.
We have designated these cross-currency swaps as qualifying hedging instruments and are accounting for them as a net investment hedge. At September 30, 2021, the cross-currency swap agreements were recorded as a $4.0 million asset and a $0.1 million liability within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The gains and losses resulting from fair value adjustments to the cross currency-swap agreements, excluding interest accruals related to the above receipts, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss within our cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment, as the swaps are effective in hedging the designated risk. Cash flows related to the cross-currency swaps are included in operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, aside from the ultimate settlement at maturity with the counterparties, which will be included in investing activities.

15. Commitments and Contingencies
General
A detailed description of environmental and other legal matters relating to certain of our subsidiaries is included in this section. In addition to the matters noted herein, we are from time to time subject to, and are presently involved in, other litigation and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe the outcome of such other litigation and legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Expenses for administrative and legal proceedings are recorded when incurred.
Environmental
Our facilities and operations are subject to federal, state and local environmental and occupational health and safety laws and regulations of the U.S. and foreign countries. We take a proactive approach in our efforts to comply with these laws and regulations as they relate to our manufacturing operations and in proposing and implementing any remedial plans that may be necessary. We also regularly conduct comprehensive environmental, health and safety audits at our facilities to maintain compliance and improve operational efficiency.
Although we believe past operations were in substantial compliance with the then applicable regulations, we or one or more of our subsidiaries are involved with various remediation activities or an investigation to determine responsibility for environmental conditions at 20 sites. At 14 of these sites, the future cost per site for us or our subsidiary is expected to exceed $100,000. Of these 20 sites, 18 are sites where we or one or more of our subsidiaries formerly conducted business operations but no longer do, and 2 are sites where we conduct manufacturing operations. Investigations have been completed for 16 sites and are in progress at 3 sites. An investigation to determine responsibility for environmental conditions is ongoing at one site.
Our policy is to accrue environmental investigation and remediation costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. For sites with multiple future projected cost scenarios for identified feasible investigation and remediation options where no one estimate is more likely than all the others, our policy is to accrue the lowest estimate among the range of estimates. The measurement of the liability is based on an evaluation of currently available facts with respect to each individual situation and takes into consideration factors such as existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations and prior experience in the remediation of similar contaminated sites. Liabilities are established for all sites based on these factors. As assessments and remediation progress at individual sites, these liabilities are reviewed and adjusted to reflect additional technical data and legal information. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had accrued liabilities aggregating $42.9 million and $42.2 million, respectively, for estimated future expenditures relating to environmental contingencies. The current portion of our aggregate environmental liability at September 30, 2021 was $12.6 million. These amounts have been recorded on an undiscounted basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Given the uncertainties regarding the status of laws, regulations, enforcement policies, the impact of other parties potentially being fully or partially liable, technology and information related to individual sites, we do not believe it is possible to develop an estimate of the range of reasonably possible environmental loss in excess of our recorded liabilities.
We believe that our accruals for specific environmental liabilities are adequate based on currently available information. Based upon limited information regarding any incremental remediation or other actions that may be required at these sites, we cannot estimate any further loss or a reasonably possible range of loss related to these matters. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from estimates because of the inherent uncertainties in evaluating environmental exposures due to unknown and changing conditions, changing government regulations and legal standards regarding liability.
Arizona Uranium Mines
EnPro Holdings has received notices from the EPA asserting that it is a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA") as the successor to a former operator of eight uranium mines in Arizona. The former operator conducted operations at the mines from 1954 to 1957. In the 1990s, remediation work performed by others at these sites consisted of capping the exposed areas of the mines. We have previously reserved amounts of probable loss associated with these mines, principally including the cost of the investigative work to be conducted at such mines. We entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent for Interim Removal Action with the EPA effective November 7, 2017 for the performance of this work. In 2020, EPA initiated group discussions with EnPro Holdings and other potentially responsible parties to resolve various technical issues, including the development of cleanup standards. Based on these discussions and subsequent discussions with other responsible parties with similar sites, we have concluded that further remedial work beyond maintenance of and minor repairs to the existing caps is probable, and we have evaluated the feasibility of various remediation scenarios. Our reserve at September 30, 2021 for this site was $13.4 million, which reflects the low end of the range of our reasonably likely liability with respect to these sites. We are not able at this time to estimate the upper end of a range of liability with respect to these sites.
19
On October 18, 2021, the United States District Court for the District of Arizona approved and entered a Consent Decree pursuant to which the U.S government will reimburse the Company for 35% of necessary costs of response, as defined in 42 U.S.C. section 9601(25), previously or to be in the future incurred by the Company which arise out of or in connection with releases or threated releases of hazardous substances at or emanating from the mine sites. Of the expected contribution of $3.8 million from the U.S. government towards remediation of the site, $1.4 million was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $2.4 million was included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2021.
Lower Passaic River Study Area
Based on our prior ownership of Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc. (“Crucible”), we may have additional contingent liabilities in one or more significant environmental matters. One such matter, which is included in the 20 sites referred to above, is the Lower Passaic River Study Area of the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site in New Jersey. Crucible operated a steel mill abutting the Passaic River in Harrison, New Jersey from the 1930s until 1974, which was one of many industrial operations on the river dating back to the 1800s. Certain contingent environmental liabilities related to this site were retained by a predecessor of our EnPro Holdings, Inc. subsidiary (which, including its corporate predecessors is referred to as "EnPro Holdings") when it sold a majority interest in Crucible Materials Corporation (the successor of Crucible) in 1985. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) notified our subsidiary in September 2003 that it is a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) for Superfund response actions in the lower 17-mile stretch of the Passaic River known as the Lower Passaic River Study Area.
EnPro Holdings and approximately 70 of the numerous other PRPs, known as the Cooperating Parties Group, are parties to a May 2007 Administrative Order on Consent with the EPA to perform a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (“RI/FS”) of the contaminants in the Lower Passaic River Study Area. In September 2018, EnPro Holdings withdrew from the Cooperating Parties Group but remains a party to the May 2007 Administrative Order on Consent. The RI/FS was completed and submitted to the EPA at the end of April 2015. The RI/FS recommends a targeted dredge and cap remedy with monitored natural recovery and adaptive management for the Lower Passaic River Study Area. The cost of such remedy is estimated to be $726 million. Previously, on April 11, 2014, the EPA released its Focused Feasibility Study (the “FFS”) with its proposed plan for remediating the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area. The FFS calls for bank-to-bank dredging and capping of the riverbed of that portion of the river and estimates a range of the present value of aggregate remediation costs of approximately $953 million to approximately $1.73 billion, although estimates of the costs and the timing of costs are inherently imprecise. On March 3, 2016, the EPA issued the final Record of Decision (ROD) as to the remedy for the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area, with the maximum estimated cost being reduced by the EPA from $1.73 billion to $1.38 billion, primarily due to a reduction in the amount of cubic yards of material that will be dredged. In October 2016, Occidental Chemical Corporation, the successor to the entity that operated the Diamond Alkali chemical manufacturing facility, reached an agreement with the EPA to develop the design for this proposed remedy at an estimated cost of $165 million. The EPA has estimated that it will take approximately four years to develop this design. On June 30, 2018, Occidental Chemical Corporation sued over 120 parties, including the Company, in the United States District Court for New Jersey seeking recovery of response costs under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA").
No final allocations of responsibility have been made among the numerous PRPs that have received notices from the EPA, there are numerous identified PRPs that have not yet received PRP notices from the EPA, and there are likely many PRPs that have not yet been identified.
On April 14, 2021, the EPA issued its proposed remedy for the upper nine miles of the river, with an estimated present value cost of approximately $441 million. The proposed remedy would involve dredging and capping of the river sediment as an interim remedy followed by a period of monitoring to evaluate the response of the river system to the interim remedy.
When the EPA initiated the allocation process in 2017, it explained that a fair, carefully structured, information-based allocation was necessary to promote settlements. With the completion of the allocation process, in the second quarter of 2021 the EPA began settlement negotiations with the parties that participated in the allocation process, including EnPro. With the ongoing negotiations and estimated remedial costs, we increased our reserve with respect to the Lower Passaic River Study Area by $4.5 million in the third quarter of 2021. With this increase, our reserve for this site at September 30, 2021 was $5.4 million. Further adjustments to our reserve for this site are possible as further information is developed in the course of these discussions.
Except with respect to the Lower Passaic River Study Area, we are unable to estimate a reasonably possible range of loss related to any other contingent environmental liability based on our prior ownership of Crucible. See the section entitled “Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc.” in this footnote for additional information.
20
Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc.
Crucible, which was engaged primarily in the manufacture and distribution of high technology specialty metal products, was a wholly owned subsidiary of EnPro Holdings until 1983 when its assets and liabilities were distributed to a new subsidiary, Crucible Materials Corporation. EnPro Holdings sold a majority of the outstanding shares of Crucible Materials Corporation in 1985 and divested its remaining minority interest in 2004. Crucible Materials Corporation filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in May 2009 and is no longer conducting operations.
We have certain ongoing obligations, which are included in other liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, including workers’ compensation, retiree medical and other retiree benefit matters, in addition to those mentioned previously related to EnPro Holdings' period of ownership of Crucible. Based on EnPro Holdings' prior ownership of Crucible, we may have certain additional contingent liabilities, including liabilities in one or more significant environmental matters included in the matters discussed in “Environmental” above. We are investigating these matters. Except with respect to those matters for which we have an accrued liability as discussed in "Environmental" above, we are unable to estimate a reasonably possible range of loss related to these contingent liabilities.
Warranties
We provide warranties on many of our products. The specific terms and conditions of these warranties vary depending on the product and the market in which the product is sold. We record a liability based upon estimates of the costs we may incur under our warranties after a review of historical warranty experience and information about specific warranty claims. Adjustments are made to the liability as claims data, historical experience, and trends result in changes to our estimate.
Changes in the product warranty liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

Asbestos Insurance Receivables
The historical business operations of certain of our subsidiaries resulted in a substantial volume of asbestos litigation in which plaintiffs alleged personal injury or death as a result of exposure to asbestos fibers. In 2010, certain of these subsidiaries, including Garlock Sealing Technologies, LLC ("GST"), filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North Carolina (the "Bankruptcy Court"). An additional subsidiary filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition with the Bankruptcy Court in 2017. The filings were part of a claims resolution process for an efficient and permanent resolution of all pending and future asbestos claims through court approval of a plan of reorganization to establish a facility to resolve and pay these asbestos claims.
These claims against GST and other subsidiaries were resolved pursuant to a joint plan of reorganization (the "Joint Plan") filed with the Bankruptcy Court which was consummated on July 29, 2017. Under the Joint Plan, GST and EnPro Holdings retained their rights to seek reimbursement under insurance policies for any amounts they have paid in the past to resolve asbestos claims, including contributions made to the asbestos claims resolution trust established under the Joint Plan (the "Trust"). These policies include a number of primary and excess general liability insurance policies that were purchased by EnPro Holdings and were in effect prior to January 1, 1976 (the “Pre-GST Coverage Block”). The policies provide coverage for “occurrences” happening during the policy periods and cover losses associated with product liability claims against EnPro Holdings and certain of its subsidiaries. Asbestos claims against GST are not covered under these policies because GST was not a subsidiary of EnPro Holdings prior to 1976. The Joint Plan provides that EnPro Holdings may retain the first $25 million of any settlements and judgments collected for non-GST asbestos claims related to insurance policies in the Pre-GST Coverage Block and EnPro Holdings and the Trust will share equally in any settlements and judgments EnPro Holdings may collect in excess of $25 million. To date, EnPro Holdings has collected almost $22 million in settlements for non-GST asbestos claims related to the Pre-GST Coverage Block and anticipates further collections once the Trust begins making claims payments on non-GST Claims.
As of September 30, 2021, approximately $3.3 million of available products hazard limits or insurance receivables existed under primary and excess general liability insurance policies other than the Pre-GST Coverage Block (the "GST Coverage Block") from solvent carriers, which we believe is available to cover contributions made to the Trust under the Joint Plan as the
21
Trust uses those contributions to pay GST asbestos claims covered by policies in the GST Coverage Block. There are specific agreements in place with carriers regarding the remaining available coverage. In the third quarter of 2021, we received a payment of $0.9 million from an insurer in the GST Coverage Block.
We believe that all of the $3.3 million of insurance proceeds will ultimately be collected, although there can be no assurance that the insurance companies will make the payments as and when due. We have billed an insurer in the GST Coverage Block $0.1 million for GST Claims paid by the Trust through September 2021. These amounts are included in Other Assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2021.
We also believe that EnPro Holdings will bill, and could collect over time, as much as $10 million of insurance coverage for non-GST asbestos claims to reimburse it for Trust payments to non-GST Trust claimants. After EnPro Holdings collects the first approximately $3 million of that coverage, remaining collections for non-GST asbestos claims from the Pre-GST Coverage Block will be shared equally with the Trust.
GST has received $8.8 million of insurance recoveries from insolvent carriers since 2007, and may receive additional payments from insolvent carriers in the future. No anticipated insolvent carrier collections are included in the $3.3 million of anticipated collections. The insurance available to cover current and future asbestos claims is from comprehensive general liability and excess liability policies that cover EnPro Holdings and certain of its other subsidiaries in addition to GST for periods prior to 1985 and therefore could be subject to potential competing claims of other covered subsidiaries and their assignees.
16. Discontinued Operations
On January 21, 2020 we sold our Fairbanks Morse division, which comprised our entire Power Systems segment, for a sales price of $450.0 million. The pre-tax gain on the disposition of Fairbanks Morse was $274.3 million. We have reported, for all periods presented, results of operations and cash flows of Fairbanks Morse as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements.
Tax expense of $65.9 million on the sale of discontinued operations was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. This was a decrease in tax expense of $1.9 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2020, which was primarily due to the increase of the foreign derived intangible income ("FDII") tax benefit and a decrease in the global intangible low taxed income ("GILTI") tax expense that are allocated to discontinued operations

17. Subsequent Events
Agreement to Divest CPI
On October 12, 2021, we entered into an Equity and Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) providing for the sale of specified equity interests and assets of our Compressor Products International business ("CPI Business") included in
22
our Engineered Materials segment. In connection with the entry into the Purchase Agreement between us and the buyer we entered into a Put Option Agreement. This agreement irrevocably provides us with the right to require the buyer to purchase all of the shares of CPI-Liard SAS ("CPI France") on terms set forth therein and in the Purchase Agreement (the “Put Option”). The Put Option may be exercised at our sole discretion only following completion of the required employee consultation processes with the employees of CPI France, including with the relevant works councils in France, with respect to such a sale of CPI France. The Purchase Agreement provides for an aggregate purchase price of the CPI Business, including CPI France, of $195.0 million. The purchase price is subject to potential adjustment based on the amount, on the date the transaction is consummated, of cash, debt and working capital of the entities to be sold in the transaction, as well as for the amount of specified selling expenses. We anticipate this sale will result in a pre-tax book gain in excess of $100 million.
The completion of the transaction is subject to certain customary closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the absence of any order of a court prohibiting the consummation of the sale and certain regulatory actions, including the expiration or termination of waiting periods administered by, or other required approvals of, specified governmental competition authorities. In addition, the buyer’s obligation to consummate the sale is further conditioned upon the entry by Coltec Industries France SAS into an adherence agreement, agreeing to the sale of all of the shares of CPI France to the buyer on the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, after having exercised the Put Option. The Purchase Agreement does not include a financing condition to the completion of the transaction. We anticipate the sale to close by the end of the first quarter of 2022.
Agreement to Acquire NxEdge
On November 4, 2021, EnPro Holdings entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of November 4, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”) with TCFII NxEdge Holdings, LLC (the “Seller”) and TCFII NxEdge LLC (“NxEdge”) providing for the sale by the Seller to EnPro Holdings of all issued and outstanding membership interests of NxEdge (the “Purchase Transaction”) for $850.0 million in cash. The purchase price is subject to potential adjustment based on the amount, on the date the Purchase Transaction is consummated, of cash, debt and working capital of NxEdge, as well as for the amount of specified selling and other expenses of NxEdge.
The completion of the Purchase Transaction is subject to certain limited closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the absence of any order of a court prohibiting the consummation of the Purchase Transaction, the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the absence of a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of NxEdge and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, occurring after the date of the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement does not include a financing condition to EnPro Holdings' obligation to complete the Purchase Transaction.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary termination provisions in favor of both EnPro Holdings and the Seller, including a right to terminate the Purchase Agreement if the Purchase Transaction has not been consummated on or prior to May 3, 2022 (or such later date, if any, as EnPro Holdings and the Seller agree upon in writing). The Purchase Agreement does not include provisions for the indemnification by the Seller or EnPro Holdings of the other party following the consummation of the Purchase Transaction (other than limited indemnification by the Seller for a specified matter) and provides that the premiums of any representation and warranty insurance policy obtained by EnPro Holdings with respect to the Purchase Agreement are to be borne by EnPro Holdings.
The Purchase Agreement provides that simultaneous with the closing of the Purchase Transaction, EnPro Holdings, the Seller and a specified escrow agent will enter into an escrow agreement under which a portion of the purchase price is to be held in escrow pending resolution of the purchase price adjustment.
We intend to fund the payment of the purchase price of the Purchase Transaction with available cash on hand, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and borrowings under new term loan facilities. We have received commitments from a bank lender for a $265 million incremental term loan under the Credit Agreement and for a separate $135 million 364-day term loan facility.
In connection with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, on November 4, 2021, we entered into a Subscription Agreement dated as of November 4, 2021 (the “Subscription Agreement”) with the President and Chief Executive Officer of NxEdge, who is also a minority owner of the Seller (the “NxEdge Executive”) pursuant to which we have agreed to issue to the NxEdge Executive, and the NxEdge Executive has agreed to purchase from us, 112,903 shares of our common stock (the “Subscription Shares”) for cash conditioned upon, and to be completed substantially concurrently with, the completion of the Purchase Transaction. The purchase price for the Subscription Shares is $88.571 per share, which was the average of the closing price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the 20 consecutive trading days preceding the date of
23
execution of the Subscription Agreement. In the Subscription Agreement, the NxEdge Executive has agreed not to transfer or enter into any hedging arrangements with respect to the Subscription Shares for a period of two years after his purchase of the Subscription Shares, other than a bona fide gift to a charitable foundation to be established by the NxEdge Executive if such charitable foundation agrees to not transfer or enter into any hedging arrangements with respect to the Subscription Shares for the remainder of such two-year period.

We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
In our discussion of our outlook and results of operations, we utilize financial measures that have not been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). They include adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc., adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. continuing operations, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA"), and total adjusted segment EBITDA. Tables showing the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures are included in "—Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the Comparable GAAP Measures"
We believe non-GAAP metrics are commonly used financial measures for investors to evaluate our operating performance and, when read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements, present a useful tool to evaluate our ongoing operations and performance from period to period. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are some of the factors we use in internal evaluations of the overall performance of our businesses. We acknowledge that there are many items that impact our reported results and the adjustments reflected in these non-GAAP measures are not intended to present all items that may have impacted these results. In addition, the non-GAAP measures we use are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Overview and Outlook
Overview. We design, develop, manufacture, service and market proprietary engineered industrial products. We are headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina and have 20 principal manufacturing and service facilities (approximately 50,000 square feet or larger) located in 13 countries, including the United States. Over the past several years, we have executed several strategic initiatives to change the portfolio of businesses that we operate to focus on materials science-based businesses with leading technologies, compelling margins, strong cash flow, and high levels of recurring revenue that serve markets with favorable secular tailwinds. These initiatives have increased our ability to provide solutions to the semiconductor, life sciences, and other technology industries.
We manage our business as three segments: a Sealing Technologies segment, an Advanced Surface Technologies segment, and an Engineered Materials segment.
Our Sealing Technologies segment designs, manufactures and sells sealing products, including: metallic, non-metallic and composite material gaskets, dynamic seals, compression packing, resilient metal seals, elastomeric seals, custom-engineered mechanical seals for applications in the aerospace industry and other markets, hydraulic components, expansion joints, sanitary gaskets, hoses and fittings for the hygienic process industries, fluid transfer products for the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries, hole forming products, bellows and bellows assemblies, PTFE products, and heavy-duty commercial vehicle parts used in wheel-end and suspension components. These products are used in a variety of industries, including chemical and petrochemical processing, pulp and paper processing, power generation, food and pharmaceutical processing, primary metal manufacturing, mining, water and waste treatment, heavy-duty trucking, aerospace, medical, filtration and semiconductor fabrication. In many of these industries, performance and durability are vital for safety and environmental protection. Many of our products are used in highly demanding applications, e.g., where extreme temperatures, extreme pressures, corrosive environments, strict tolerances, and/or worn equipment make product performance difficult.
Our Advanced Surface Technologies segment applies proprietary technologies, processes, and capabilities to deliver highly differentiated suites of products and services for the most challenging applications in high growth markets. The
25
segment’s products and services are used in highly demanding environments requiring performance, precision and repeatability, with a low tolerance for failure. The segment’s services include cleaning, coating, testing, refurbishment and verification services for critical components and assemblies used in state-of-the-art advanced node semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The segment also designs, manufactures and sells specialized optical filters and thin-film coatings for the most challenging applications in the industrial technology, life sciences, and semiconductor markets and complex front-end wafer processing sub-systems, new and refurbished electrostatic chuck pedestals, thin film coatings, and edge-welded metal bellows for the semiconductor equipment industry and for critical applications in the space, aerospace and defense markets.
Our Engineered Materials segment includes operations that design, manufacture and sell self-lubricating, non-rolling metal-polymer, engineered plastics, and fiber reinforced composite bearing products, precision engineered components and lubrication systems for reciprocating compressors and engines, critical service flange gaskets, seals and electrical flange isolation kits used in high-pressure wellhead equipment, flow lines, water injection lines, sour hydrocarbon process applications, and crude oil and natural gas pipeline/transmission line applications. These products are used in a wide range of applications, including the automotive, aerospace, pharmaceutical, pulp and paper, natural gas, health, power generation, machine tools, air treatment, refining, petrochemical and general industrial markets.
On September 2, 2021 we sold certain assets and liabilities of our polymer components business unit, which was principally located in Houston, Texas and included in our Sealing Technologies segment. Sales for the business included in our 2021 consolidated results through the date of the sale was approximately $20 million. As a result of the sale, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $19.5 million in other income (expense) on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
On October 12, 2021, we entered into an Equity and Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) providing for the sale of specified equity interests and assets of our Compressor Products International business ("CPI Business") included in our Engineered Materials segment. In connection with the entry into the Purchase Agreement between us and the buyer we entered into a Put Option Agreement. This agreement irrevocably provides us with the right to require the buyer to purchase all of the shares of CPI-Liard SAS ("CPI France") on terms set forth therein and in the Purchase Agreement (the “Put Option”). The Put Option may be exercised at our sole discretion only following completion of the required employee consultation processes with the employees of CPI France, including with the relevant works councils in France, with respect to such a sale of CPI France. The Purchase Agreement provides for an aggregate purchase price of the CPI Business, including CPI France, of $195.0 million. The purchase price is subject to potential adjustment based on the amount, on the date the transaction is consummated, of cash, debt and working capital of the entities to be sold in the transaction, as well as for the amount of specified selling expenses. We anticipate this sale will result in a pre-tax book gain in excess of $100 million.
The completion of the transaction is subject to certain customary closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the absence of any order of a court prohibiting the consummation of the sale and certain regulatory actions, including the expiration or termination of waiting periods administered by, or other required approvals of, specified governmental competition authorities. In addition, the buyer’s obligation to consummate the sale is further conditioned upon the entry by Coltec Industries France SAS into an adherence agreement, agreeing to the sale of all of the shares of CPI France to the buyer on the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, after having exercised the Put Option. The Purchase Agreement does not include a financing condition to the completion of the transaction. We anticipate the sale to close by the end of the first quarter of 2022.
On November 4, 2021, EnPro Holdings entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of November 4, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”) with TCFII NxEdge Holdings, LLC and TCFII NxEdge LLC (“NxEdge”) providing for the sale by the Seller to EnPro Holdings of all issued and outstanding membership interests of NxEdge (the “Purchase Transaction”) for $850.0 million in cash. NxEdge is an advanced manufacturing, cleaning, coating, and refurbishment business focused on the semiconductor value chain. The purchase price is subject to potential adjustment based on the amount, on the date the Purchase Transaction is consummated, of cash, debt and working capital of NxEdge, as well as for the amount of specified selling and other expenses of NxEdge.
The completion of the Purchase Transaction is subject to certain limited closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the absence of any order of a court prohibiting the consummation of the Purchase Transaction, the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the absence of a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of NxEdge and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, occurring after the date of the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement does not include a financing condition to EnPro Holdings' obligation to complete the Purchase Transaction.
We intend to fund the payment of the purchase price of the Purchase Transaction with available cash on hand, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) and borrowings under new term loan facilities. We have received
26
commitments from a bank lender for a $265 million incremental term loan under the Credit Agreement (as defined below) and for a separate $135 million 364-day term loan facility.
COVID-19 Impacts. COVID-19 has significantly impacted the health and economic environment around the world. Our customers are principally global manufacturers and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on general economic conditions, and more deleterious effects on certain markets, have had and may continue to have negative implications on demand for their goods and consequently on their demand for our products and services. Because of uncertainties with respect to the continuing severity and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak, which may vary significantly in different regions of the world and could be impacted by new variants, the duration and terms of related governmental orders restricting activities, and the timing and pace of any economic recovery as COVID-19 impacts abate in different regions, we cannot predict with precision the extent and duration of any future changes in demand for our products and services due to COVID-19 impacts and the consequent impact on our business and financial results.
All of our primary manufacturing facilities are currently open and generally have not experienced significant supply chain disruptions. Certain operations are experiencing upstream supply chain challenges for raw materials, including certain metals and rubber-related chemicals, as raw material supply, which was reduced in response to the economic slowdown related to the COVID-19 pandemic, has not sufficiently increased to address increasing demand, including inventory restocking, as general economic activity has improved. Additionally, each of our businesses has developed continuity and contingency plans, based on various scenarios in preparation for potential operational disruptions, to permit us to adjust production levels to demand. We cannot predict if and when closures or production changes may arise as a result of implications related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

We continue to experience strong demand growth and improved momentum across all of our businesses in the first nine months of 2021. Our performance was driven primarily by Sealing Technologies as we continue to produce higher results driven by improved performance in our Garlock business as well as from the benefits of portfolio reshaping within our Stemco business. We continued our progress on portfolio reshaping with the divestiture of our polymer components business in the third quarter and reached an agreement in October 2021 to sell our CPI business.
We believe that our strong performance in the first nine months of 2021 was likely enhanced to some extent by customers restocking as the economy in the United States and certain other regions continue to recover from the pandemic, however, we are unable to quantify the amount or the extent to which we benefited from these restocking purchases. We expect to continue to see strong demand in many of the industries we serve.
In connection with our growth strategy, we will continue to evaluate making additional acquisitions to take advantage of opportunities that arise. We will consider making additional divestitures over time, and under the right circumstances, to further our long-term strategic goals of refocusing our portfolio on businesses with compelling margins, leading technology, high cash flow return on investment, and favorable secular tailwinds.

We measure operating performance based on segment earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other selected items ("Adjusted Segment EBITDA" or "Segment AEBITDA"), which is segment revenue reduced by operating expenses and other costs identifiable with the segment, excluding acquisition and divestiture expenses, restructuring costs, impairment charges, non-controlling interest compensation, amortization of the fair value adjustment to acquisition date inventory, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted Segment EBITDA is not defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Corporate expenses include general corporate administrative costs. Expenses not directly attributable to the segments, corporate expenses, net interest expense, gains and losses related to the sale of assets, and income taxes are not included in the computation of Adjusted Segment EBITDA. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those for EnPro.
28
Non-controlling interest compensation allocation represents compensation expense associated with a portion of the rollover equity from the acquisitions of LeanTeq and Alluxa being subject to reduction for certain types of employment terminations of the sellers. This expense is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and is directly related to the terms of the acquisitions. This expense will continue to be recognized as compensation expense over the term of the put and call options associated with each of these acquisitions unless certain employment terminations have occurred.
Other income (expense), net in the table above contains all items included in other (operating) expense and other income (expense) (non-operating) on our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 with the exception of $0.8 million, $5.0 million, $5.4 million, and $19.0 million, respectively, of restructuring costs. As noted previously, restructuring costs are excluded from Adjusted Segment EBITDA. Additionally, other income (expense), net in the table above for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 includes $0.8 million, $1.5 million, $2.9 million, and $3.3 million, respectively, of miscellaneous expenses that are either not associated with a particular segment or not considered part of administering the corporate functions. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expense on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Third Quarter of 2021 Compared to the Third Quarter of 2020
Sales of $283.1 million in the third quarter of 2021 increased 5.5% from $268.3 million in the third quarter of 2020. The following table summarizes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures, and foreign currency on sales by segment:
Sales | Percent Change Third Quarter 2021 vs. Third Quarter 2020 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
increase/(decrease) | Acquisitions and Divestitures | Foreign Currency | Organic | Total | |||||||||||||||||||
EnPro Industries, Inc. | (11.5) | % | 1.2 | % | 15.8 | % | 5.5 | % | |||||||||||||||

Following are the key effects of acquisitions and divestitures on sales for the third quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020:
•Acquisition of Alluxa (Advanced Surface Technologies) in October 2020
•Divestiture of the polymer components business unit, which was principally located in Houston, in September 2021
•Divestiture of Technetics Group UK Limited (Sealing Technologies) in December 2020
•Divestiture of the bushing block business principally located in Dieuze, France (Engineered Materials) in November 2020
•Divestiture of the Air Springs portion of our heavy duty trucking business (Sealing Technologies) in November 2020
•Divestiture of Motorwheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands (Sealing Technologies) in September 2020
•Divestiture of the Lunar® air disc brake business, both the U.S. and Shanghai China operations (Sealing Technologies), in the second and third quarters of 2020
Following is a discussion of operating results for each segment during the third quarter of 2021:
Sealing Technologies. Sales of $146.9 million in the third quarter of 2021 reflect a 6.9% decrease compared to the $157.8 million reported in the same period of 2020. Excluding the favorable foreign exchange translation ($1.5 million) and the sales from businesses that have since been divested ($29.5 million) from 2020 results, sales were up 15.7%, or $19.7 million. This increase was driven by strong demand in petrochemical, heavy-duty truck, food and pharmaceuticals, and general industrial markets.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $34.5 million in the third quarter of 2021 increased 7.8% from $32.0 million reported in the same period of 2020. Segment AEBITDA margins for the segment increased from 20.3% in the third quarter of 2020 to 23.5% for the third quarter of 2021. Excluding the favorable foreign exchange translation ($0.6 million) and the Segment
29
AEBITDA earned from businesses that have since been divested ($4.9 million) from 2020 results, Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 26.5%, or $7.1 million, to $33.9 million. The increase in Segment AEBITDA was driven primarily by higher sales volume and improved product mix in our Garlock business unit ($7.1 million) and increased pricing ($4.1 million), partially offset by increased manufacturing costs driven by increased raw material costs in our heavy-duty trucking business ($2.2 million), and higher selling, general and administrative costs ($2.3 million).
Advanced Surface Technologies. Sales of $64.3 million in the third quarter of 2021 reflect a 44.2% increase compared to the $44.6 million reported in the same period of 2020. Excluding the favorable foreign exchange translation ($0.6 million) and the sales from a recent acquisition ($8.7 million) from 2021 results, sales were up 23.6% or $10.5 million. This increase was driven primarily by stronger demand in the semiconductor market.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $19.4 million in the third quarter of 2021 increased 44.8% from $13.4 million reported in the same period of 2020. Segment AEBITDA margins increased from 30.0% in the third quarter of 2020 to 30.2% in the third quarter of 2021. Excluding the favorable foreign exchange translation ($0.4 million) and the Segment AEBITDA contributed from a business recently acquired ($4.6 million) from our 2021 results, Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 8.2%, or $1.1 million, to $14.5 million. This increase in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was driven by increased sales and favorable product mix in our Technetics Semiconductor business ($1.9 million) and increased pricing ($1.5 million), partially offset by increased manufacturing costs ($1.4 million) and increased selling, general, and administrative costs ($0.5 million) to support increased demand as well as higher incentive compensation ($0.3 million) and increased foreign exchange transaction related costs ($0.3 million).
Engineered Materials. Sales in the third quarter of 2021 increased 9.0% to $73.8 million from $67.7 million reported in the same period of 2020. Excluding the impact of favorable foreign exchange translation ($1.1 million) and the sales from a business that has since been divested ($2.3 million), sales were up 11.0% or $7.2 million primarily driven significantly stronger demand in general industrial market, partially offset by power generation and oil and gas markets.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA in the third quarter of 2021 was $8.8 million compared to Segment EBITDA of $7.9 million in the same period of 2020, an increase of $0.9 million, or 11.4%. Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins for the segment were 11.9%, which was an increase from 11.7% in the third quarter of 2020. Excluding the impact of favorable foreign exchange translation ($0.3 million) and the Segment AEBITDA contributed from a business that has since been divested ($0.5 million), Segment AEBITDA increased $0.1 million, or 1.2%. Increases related to volume ($1.6 million) and pricing ($2.5 million) were offset by higher incentive compensation ($1.7 million), increased selling, general, and administrative costs due to higher hiring costs as a result of labor shortages ($1.2 million), and increased manufacturing and freight costs ($1.2 million).
Corporate expenses for the third quarter of 2021 decreased $0.1 million as compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease was driven primarily by decreased consulting and acquisition costs in 2021 mostly offset by increased net costs related to our CEO transition in the current-year period ($1.7 million).
Interest expense, net in the third quarter of 2021 decreased $1.3 million as compared to the same period of 2020 primarily due to a receivable recognized in the third quarter for interest on a refund from the IRS as a result of the conclusion of an audit of our 2014 through 2017 U.S. federal income tax returns.
Other income, net in the third quarter of 2021 increased by $58.3 million as compared to the same period of 2020, primarily due to a $19.5 million gain on sale of businesses in 2021 compared to a $3.1 million loss in 2020 ($22.6 million), higher 2020 charges for impairments of indefinite lived trademarks ($16.1 million), a legal settlement in 2020 related to product liability claims ($7.4 million), lower environmental charges ($9.5 million), increased pension income from non-service costs ($1.3 million), and reduced other charges primarily related to discontinued operations and miscellaneous expenses not associated with a particular segment or not considered part of administering the corporate functions ($1.4 million)
The effective tax rates for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were 35.4% and 25.4%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily the result of non-deductible tax goodwill related to the divestiture in our Sealing Technologies segment and higher tax rates in most foreign jurisdictions.
Net income attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. was $27.5 million, or $1.33 per share, in the third quarter of 2021 compared to net loss of $19.7 million, or $(0.96) per share, in the same period of 2020. Earnings per share is expressed on a diluted basis.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020
Sales of $861.0 million in the first nine months of 2021 increased 7.9% from $798.0 million in the first nine months of 2020. The following table summarizes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures, and foreign currency on sales by segment:
Sales | Percent Change Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 vs. Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
increase/(decrease) | Acquisitions and Divestitures | Foreign Currency | Organic | Total | |||||||||||||||||||
EnPro Industries, Inc. | (10.6) | % | 2.7 | % | 15.8 | % | 7.9 | % | |||||||||||||||

Engineered Materials | (3.9) | % | 4.6 | % | 15.6 | % | 16.3 | % |
Following are the key effects of acquisitions and divestitures on sales for the first nine months of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020:
•Acquisition of Alluxa (Advanced Surface Technologies) in October 2020
•Divestiture of the polymer components business unit, which was principally located in Houston, in September 2021
•Divestiture of Technetics Group UK Limited (Sealing Technologies) in December 2020
•Divestiture of the bushing block business principally located in Dieuze, France (Engineered Materials) in November 2020
•Divestiture of the Air Springs portion of our heavy duty trucking business (Sealing Technologies) in November 2020
•Divestiture of Motorwheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands (Sealing Technologies) in September 2020
•Divestiture of the Lunar® air disc brake business, both the U.S. and Shanghai China operations (Sealing Technologies), in the second and third quarters of 2020
Following is a discussion of operating results for each segment during the first nine months of 2021:
Sealing Technologies. Sales of $455.9 million in the first nine months of 2021 reflect a 5.4% decrease compared to the $482.0 million reported in the same period of 2020. Excluding the favorable foreign exchange translation ($10.5 million) on our 2021 sales and the sales from businesses that have since been divested ($86.7 million) from 2020 results, sales were up 13.4% or $52.5 million. This increase was driven by increased demand in food and pharmaceuticals, petrochemical, heavy-duty truck, and general industrial markets, partially offset by decline in demand in the aerospace market.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $110.8 million in the first nine months of 2021 increased 15.3% from $96.1 million reported in the same period of 2020. Segment AEBITDA margins for the segment increased from 19.9% in the first nine months of 2020 to 24.3% in the first nine months of 2021. Excluding the favorable foreign exchange translation ($2.9 million) and the Segment AEBITDA earned from businesses that have since been divested ($9.6 million) from 2020 results, Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 25.2%, or $21.7 million, to $107.9 million. The increase in Segment AEBITDA was driven by increased sales volume, net of unfavorable product mixes driven by lower margin sales in our heavy-duty trucking business as we saw higher sales to original equipment manufacturers ($17.2 million), increased pricing ($7.8 million), lower travel-related expense ($1.1 million), partially offset by higher incentive compensation ($1.6 million), increased segment selling, general, and administrative costs ($1.6 million), and unfavorable year over year foreign exchange transaction costs ($1.1 million).
Advanced Surface Technologies. Sales of $178.2 million in the first nine months of 2021 reflect a 46.9% increase compared to the $121.3 million reported in the same period of 2020. Excluding the favorable foreign exchange translation ($2.2 million) and the sales from a recent acquisition ($26.4 million) from 2021 results, sales were up 23.2% or $28.2 million. This increase was driven primarily by stronger demand in the semiconductor market.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $52.3 million in the first nine months of 2021 increased 65.0% from $31.7 million reported in the same period of 2020. Segment AEBITDA margins for the segment increased from 26.1% in the first nine months of 2020 to 29.3% in the first nine months of 2021. Excluding the favorable foreign exchange translation ($1.3 million) and the Segment AEBITDA contributed from a business recently acquired ($14.1 million) from our 2021 results, Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased $5.2 million, or 16.4%, to $36.9 million. The increase in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was driven
31
by increased sales including a more favorable product mix in our Technetics Sealing business ($11.3 million), and increased pricing ($0.8 million), partially offset by increased manufacturing costs as a result of sales growth ($3.4 million), increased incentive compensation costs ($1.2 million), increased selling, general, and administrative costs ($1.2 million), and increased foreign exchange transaction related costs ($1.1 million).
Engineered Materials. Sales in the first nine months of 2021 increased 16.3% to $234.2 million from $201.4 million reported in the same period of 2020. Excluding the impact of favorable foreign exchange translation ($9.1 million) and the sales from a business that has since been divested ($6.6 million), sales were up 15.6% or $30.3 million, primarily due to stronger demand in automotive and general industrial markets, partially offset by weakness in the oil and gas and power generation markets.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA in the first nine months of 2021 was $34.4 million compared to Segment EBITDA of $21.1 million in the first nine months of 2020, an increase of $13.3 million, or 63.0%. Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins for the segment were 14.7%, which was an increase from 10.5% in the first nine months of 2020. Excluding the impact of favorable foreign exchange translation ($2.2 million) and the Segment AEBITDA contributed from a business that has since been divested ($0.3 million), Segment AEBITDA increased $10.8 million, or 50.0%, driven mainly by increased sales ($14.7 million), increased pricing ($4.5 million), partially offset by increased incentive compensation costs ($4.9 million), higher selling, general, and administrative costs to support the higher sales volume and the easing of 2020 cost-reduction measures implemented at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic ($2.1 million), and increased freight costs ($1.6 million).
Corporate expenses for the first nine months of 2021 increased $8.7 million as compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was driven primarily by higher incentive compensation costs due to higher projected attainment in 2021 ($5.9 million), net costs related to our CEO transition ($2.1 million), and increased insurance and legal costs ($1.1 million).
Interest expense, net in the first nine months of 2021 decreased $1.2 million from 2020 primarily due to due to a receivable recognized in the third quarter for interest on a refund from the IRS as a result of the conclusion of an audit of our 2014 through 2017 U.S. federal income tax return.
Other income, net in the first nine months of 2021 increased by $58.5 million as compared to other expense reported in the same period of 2020, primarily due to a $17.5 million gain on sale of businesses in 2021 compared to a $2.0 million loss in 2020 ($19.5 million), higher 2020 charges due to impairments of indefinite lived trademarks ($16.1 million), a legal settlement in 2020 related to product liability claims ($7.4 million), lower environmental charges ($9.5 million), increased pension income from non-service costs ($4.2 million), and reduced other charges primarily related to discontinued operations and miscellaneous expenses not associated with a particular segment or not considered part of administering the corporate functions ($1.8 million)
The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were 21.9% and (17.9)%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily the result of the release of a valuation allowance on certain foreign net operating losses, the favorable conclusion of the IRS examination, and the release of certain uncertain tax positions, partially offset by higher tax rates in most foreign jurisdictions. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 is primarily the result of lower pre-tax income overall, a geographical mix of lower pre-tax income in the U.S. combined with the minimum tax on certain non-U.S. earnings, current year increase of valuation allowance against certain net operating losses, and higher tax rates in most foreign jurisdictions.
Income from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. was $74.8 million, or $3.61 per share, in the first nine months of 2021 compared to loss from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. of $14.8 million, or a loss of $0.72 per share, in the same period of 2020. Earnings per share is expressed on a diluted basis.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash requirements for, but not limited to, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and debt repayments have been funded from cash balances on hand. We continue to consider acquisition opportunities that align with our long-term strategic goals of refocusing our portfolio on businesses with compelling margins, leading technology, high cash flow return on investment, and favorable secular tailwinds. It is possible our cash requirements for one or more acquisition opportunities could exceed our cash balance at the time of closing. Should we need additional capital, we believe we will have access to necessary resources, including the resources discussed in this section under the heading “Capital Resources.”
As of September 30, 2021, we held $212.3 million of our $330.0 million cash and cash equivalents outside of the United States. If the funds held outside the United States were needed for our operations in the U.S., we have several methods to access funds without a significant incremental tax cost, including repayment of intercompany loans or distributions of previously taxed income. In addition, as of September 30, 2021, we had a net current income tax receivable totaling $30.8
32
million, which includes a refund of approximately $24.7 million related to the conclusion of an IRS examination of our 2014 through 2017 U.S. federal income tax returns. After September 30, 2021, we received the full refund from the IRS plus $1.2 million of applicable interest.
Because of the transition tax and tax on the global intangible low-taxed income provisions, undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries totaling $186.7 million at September 30, 2021 have been subjected to U.S. income tax. Whether through the application of the 100 percent dividends-received deduction provided in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, or the distribution of these previously-taxed earnings, we do not intend to distribute foreign earnings that will be subject to any significant incremental U.S. or foreign tax.
Cash Flows
Operating activities provided $97.8 million of cash in the first nine months of 2021 and $48.4 million of cash in the first nine months of 2020. The year-over-year increase was driven by increased sales volume and reduced income tax payments primarily related to the sale of discontinued operations in 2020 ($29.2 million), partially offset by a build in accounts receivable, inventories, and accounts payable ($34.3 million).
Investing activities provided $25.9 million of cash in the first nine months of 2021 and provided $439.5 million of cash during the first nine months of 2020. This change is driven by a year-over-year decrease in cash proceeds from the sale of businesses of $415.0 million, due primarily to the closing on the sale of Fairbanks Morse in January 2020, partially offset by the sale of the polymer components business unit located in Houston Texas in 2021.
Financing activities used $21.3 million of cash in the first nine months of 2021, primarily from $16.8 million used for dividends paid and $3.0 million in repayments of debt, primarily term loan amortization payments. Financing activities in the first nine months of 2020 used $160.0 million, primarily used in net payments of $136.5 million on our revolving credit facility and term loan, $16.2 million used for dividend payments, and $5.3 million used in the repurchase of our common shares.
Capital Resources
Senior Secured Credit Facilities. On September 25, 2019, we entered into a First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among EnPro Industries, Inc. and EnPro Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“EnPro Holdings”), as borrowers, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer. The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year, senior secured revolving credit facility of $400.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a five-year, senior secured term loan facility of $150.0 million (the "Term Loan Facility" and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Facilities”). The Amended Credit Agreement also provides that the borrowers may seek incremental term loans and/or additional revolving credit commitments in an amount equal to the greater of $225.0 million and 100% of consolidated EBITDA (as defined) for the most recently ended four-quarter period for which we have reported financial results, plus additional amounts based on a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio.
Initially, borrowings under the Facilities bore interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.50% or base rate plus 0.50%, with the interest rates under the Facilities being subject to incremental increases based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio. In addition, a commitment fee accrues with respect to the unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility at an annual rate of 0.175%, which rate is also subject to incremental increase or decrease based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio.
The Term Loan Facility amortizes on a quarterly basis in an annual amount equal to 2.50% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan Facility in each of years one through three, 5.00% of such original principal amount in year four, and 1.25% of such original principal amount in each of the first three quarters of year five, with the remaining outstanding principal amount payable at maturity.
The Facilities are subject to prepayment with the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty or condemnation events, and non-permitted debt issuances.
The Company and EnPro Holdings are the permitted borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility. We have the ability to add foreign subsidiaries as borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility for up to $100.0 million (or its foreign currency equivalent) in aggregate borrowings, subject to certain conditions. Each of our domestic, consolidated subsidiaries are required to guarantee the obligations of the borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility, and each of our existing domestic, consolidated subsidiaries has entered into the Credit Agreement to provide such a guarantee.
Borrowings under the Facilities are secured by a first-priority pledge of the following assets:
33
•100% of the capital stock of each domestic, consolidated subsidiary of the Company (other than unrestricted subsidiaries);
•65% of the capital stock of any first tier foreign subsidiary of the Company and its domestic, consolidated subsidiaries (other than unrestricted subsidiaries); and
•substantially all of the assets (including, without limitation, machinery and equipment, inventory and other goods, accounts receivable, certain owned real estate and related fixtures, bank accounts, general intangibles, financial assets, investment property, license rights, patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, chattel paper, insurance proceeds, contract rights, hedge agreements, documents, instruments, indemnification rights, tax refunds and cash) of the Company and its domestic, consolidated subsidiaries (other than unrestricted subsidiaries)
The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants and required financial ratios, including:
•a maximum consolidated total net leverage ratio of not more than 4.25 to 1.0 (with total debt, for the purposes of such ratio, to be net of up to $125 million of unrestricted cash of EnPro Industries, Inc. and its domestic, consolidated subsidiaries), which ratio will decrease to 4.0 to 1.0 for each fiscal quarter beginning with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2020 and, once so decrease, may be increased (up to three times) at the borrowers' option to not more than 4.5 to 1.0 for the for-quarter period following a significant acquisition; and
•a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 2.5 to 1.0.
The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants (subject, in each case, to customary exceptions and qualifications), including covenants that limit our ability to, among other things:
•grant liens on our assets;
•incur additional indebtedness (including guarantees and other contingent obligations);
•make certain investments (including loans and advances);
•merge or make other fundamental changes;
•sell or otherwise dispose of property or assets;
•pay dividends and other distributions and prepay certain indebtedness;
•make changes in the nature of our business;
•enter into transactions with our affiliates;
•enter into burdensome contracts; and
•modify or terminate documents related to certain indebtedness.
We were in compliance with all covenants of the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2021.
The borrowing availability at September 30, 2021 under the Revolving Credit Facility was $388.5 million, representing the full $400.0 million of availability less $11.5 million reserved for outstanding letters of credit. At September 30, 2021, we had $142.5 million of outstanding borrowings on our Term Loan Facility.
Senior Notes. In October 2018, we completed the offering of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Senior Notes").
The Senior Notes were issued to investors at 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Senior Notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of EnPro and mature on October 15, 2026. Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 5.75% per annum and is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing April 15, 2019. The Senior Notes are required to be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of EnPro’s existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries that is a borrower under, or guarantees, our indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility or guarantees any other Capital Markets Indebtedness (as defined in the indenture governing the Senior Notes) of EnPro or any of the guarantors.
As of October 15, 2021, we may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the Senior Notes at specified redemption prices plus accrued and unpaid interest.
Each holder of the Senior Notes may require us to repurchase some or all of the Senior Notes held by such holder for cash upon the occurrence of a defined “change of control” event.
The indenture governing the Senior Notes includes covenants that restrict our ability to engage in certain activities, including incurring additional indebtedness, paying dividends and repurchasing shares of our common stock, subject in each case to specified exceptions and qualifications set forth in the indenture.
34
At September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all of the covenants of the indenture governing the Senior Notes.
Share Repurchase Program. In October 2018, our board of directors authorized the expenditure of up to $50.0 million for the repurchase of our outstanding common shares. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we repurchased 0.1 million shares for $5.3 million. Prior to the expiration of the authorization in October 2020, total repurchases under the October 2018 authorization aggregated 0.3 million shares for $20.3 million.
In October 2020, our board of directors authorized the expenditure of up to $50 million for the repurchase of our outstanding common shares through October 2022. No repurchases have been made under this program.

Contingencies
A description of our contingencies is included in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information
On October 17, 2018, we completed the offering of the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured, unsubordinated, joint and several basis by our wholly owned direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, that are each guarantors of our Revolving Credit Facility, including subsidiaries that were wholly owned at the time they provided the guarantee but thereafter became majority owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The Guarantor Subsidiaries at September 30, 2021 comprise all of our consolidated domestic subsidiaries at that date. Our subsidiaries organized outside of the United States (collectively, the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”) do not guarantee the Senior Notes.
The Guarantor Subsidiaries jointly and severally guarantee on an unsecured, unsubordinated basis the performance and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity of the Senior Notes, by acceleration or otherwise, all of our obligations under the Senior Notes and the indenture governing the Senior Notes (the “Indenture”), whether for payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Senior Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise (all such obligations guaranteed by the Guarantor Subsidiaries are referred to as the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantor Subsidiaries have jointly and severally agreed to pay, in addition to the obligations stated above, any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the trustee (the “Trustee”) under the Indenture in enforcing any rights under their guarantees of the Guaranteed Obligations.
Each guarantee of a Guarantor Subsidiary is limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by it without rendering the guarantee, as it relates to such Guarantor Subsidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. Each guarantee of a Guarantor Subsidiary is a continuing guarantee and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Trustee, the holders of the Senior Notes and their successors, transferees and assigns and, subject to the provisions described in the following sentence, remains in full force and effect until payment in full of all of the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor Subsidiary and is binding upon such Guarantor Subsidiary and its successors. A guarantee of the Senior Notes by a Guarantor Subsidiary is subject to release in the following circumstances: (i) the sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation, amalgamation or otherwise) of the capital stock of the subsidiary made in a manner not in violation of the Indenture; (ii) the designation of the subsidiary as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” under the Indenture; (iii) the legal defeasance or covenant defeasance of the Senior Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture; or (iv) the subsidiary ceasing to be our subsidiary as a result of any foreclosure of any pledge or security interest securing our Revolving Credit Facility or other exercise of remedies in respect thereof.

The Senior Notes are structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. The Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay any amounts due pursuant to the Senior Notes or the Indenture, or to make any funds available therefor, whether by dividends, loans, distributions or other payments. Any right that the Company or the Guarantor Subsidiaries have to receive any assets of any of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries upon the liquidation or reorganization of any Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, and the consequent rights of holders of Senior Notes to realize proceeds from the sale of any of a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary’s assets, would be effectively subordinated to the claims of such Non-Guarantor Subsidiary’s creditors, including trade creditors and holders of preferred equity interests, if any, of such Non-Guarantor Subsidiary. Accordingly, in the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries will pay the holders of their debts, holders of preferred equity interests, if any, and their trade creditors before they will be able to distribute any of their assets to the Company or any Guarantor Subsidiaries.
If a Guarantor Subsidiary were to become a debtor in a case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or encounter other financial difficulty, under federal or state fraudulent transfer or conveyance law, a court may avoid, subordinate or otherwise decline to enforce its guarantee of the Senior Notes. A court might do so if it is found that when such Guarantor Subsidiary entered into its guarantee of the Senior Notes, or in some states when payments became due under the Senior Notes, such Guarantor Subsidiary received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration and either:
•was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of such incurrence;
•was left with unreasonably small or otherwise inadequate capital to conduct our business; or
•believed or reasonably should have believed that it would incur debts beyond its ability to pay.
The court might also avoid the guarantee of the Senior Notes without regard to the above factors, if the court found that the Guarantor Subsidiary entered into its guarantee with actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud our creditors.
A court would likely find that a Guarantor Subsidiary did not receive reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for its guarantee of the Senior Notes, if such Guarantor Subsidiary did not substantially benefit directly or indirectly from the funding made available by the issuance of the Senior Notes. If a court were to avoid a guarantee of the Senior Notes provided by a Guarantor Subsidiary, holders of the Senior Notes would no longer have any claim against such Guarantor Subsidiary. The measures of insolvency for purposes of these fraudulent transfer or conveyance laws will vary depending upon the law applied in any proceeding to determine whether a fraudulent transfer or conveyance has occurred, such that we cannot predict what standards a court would use to determine whether or not a Guarantor Subsidiary was solvent at the relevant time or, regardless of the standard that a court uses, that the guarantee of a Guarantor Subsidiary would not be subordinated to such Guarantor Subsidiary’s other debt. As noted above, each guarantee provided by a Guarantor Subsidiary includes a provision intended to
37
limit the Guarantor Subsidiary’s liability to the maximum amount that it could incur without causing the incurrence of obligations under its guarantee to be a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. This provision may not be effective to protect those guarantees from being avoided under fraudulent transfer or conveyance law, or it may reduce that Guarantor Subsidiary’s obligation to an amount that effectively makes its guarantee worthless, and we cannot predict whether a court will ultimately find it to be effective.
On the basis of historical financial information, operating history and other factors, we believe that each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries, after giving effect to the issuance of its guarantee of the Senior Notes when such guarantee was issued, was not insolvent, did not have unreasonably small capital for the business in which it engaged and did not and has not incurred debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. We cannot assure you, however, as to what standard a court would apply in making these determinations or that a court would agree with our conclusions in this regard.
Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the Comparable GAAP Measures
We believe that it would be helpful to the readers of the financial statements to understand the impact of certain selected items on our reported income from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc., diluted earnings per share attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. continuing operations, and total adjusted segment EBITDA, including items that may recur from time to time. The items adjusted for in these non-GAAP financial measures are those that are excluded by management in budgeting or projecting for performance in future periods, as they typically relate to events specific to the period in which they occur. Accordingly, these are some of the factors the company uses in internal evaluations of the overall performance of its businesses. In addition, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are commonly used financial measures for investors to evaluate the company’s operating performance and, when read in conjunction with the company’s consolidated financial statements, present a useful tool to evaluate the company’s ongoing operations and performance from period to period. Management acknowledges that there are many items that impact a company’s reported results and the adjustments reflected in these non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to present all items that may have impacted these results. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The following presents a reconciliation of (i) income from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. to adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. and (ii) income from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. to adjusted EBITDA for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

1 Adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. continuing operations. Per share amounts were calculated by dividing by the weighted-average shares of diluted common stock outstanding during the periods.
2 Non-controlling interest compensation allocation represents compensation expense associated with a portion of the rollover equity from the acquisitions of LeanTeq and Alluxa that is subject to reduction for certain types of employment terminations of the LeanTeq and Alluxa sellers and is directly related to the terms of the respective acquisitions. This expense will continue to be recognized as compensation expense over the term of the put and call options associated with the acquisitions unless certain employment terminations have occurred.

3There were 0.1 million potentially dilutive shares that were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020 because they were antidilutive. These shares were included in the computation of adjusted diluted earnings per share for that period.
4Other adjustments are included in selling, general, and administrative, cost of sales, and other operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations.
5 The adjusted income tax expense presented above is calculated using a normalized company-wide effective tax rate excluding discrete items of 30.0% for continuing operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to certain market risks as part of our ongoing business operations, including risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates that could impact our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We manage our exposure to these and other market risks through regular operating and financing activities and through the use of derivative financial instruments. We intend to use derivative financial instruments as risk management tools and not for speculative investment purposes. For information about our interest rate risk, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk – Interest Rate Risk” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
41
Foreign Currency Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of our foreign subsidiaries, intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Our objective is to control our exposure to these risks and limit the volatility in our reported earnings due to foreign currency fluctuations through our normal operating activities and, where appropriate, through foreign currency forward contracts and option contracts. The notional amount of foreign exchange contracts hedging foreign currency transactions was $3.3 million and $3.3 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
In September 2018, we entered into cross-currency swap agreements with a notional amount of $200.0 million to manage foreign currency risk by effectively converting a portion of the interest payments related to our fixed-rate U.S. Dollar (“USD”)-denominated Senior Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments thereunder, to interest payments on fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt of 172.8 million EUR with a weighted average interest rate of 2.8%, with interest payment dates of March 15 and September 15 of each year. The swap agreement matures on September 15, 2022.
In May 2019, we entered into additional cross-currency swap agreements with a notional amount of $100.0 million to manage foreign currency risk by effectively converting a portion of the interest payments related to our fixed-rate USD-denominated Senior Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments thereunder, to interest payments on fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt of 89.6 million EUR with a weighted average interest rate of 3.5% , with interest payment dates of April 15 and October 15 of each year. The swap agreement matures on October 15, 2026.
During the term of the swap agreements, we will receive semi-annual payments from the counterparties due to the difference between the interest rate on the Senior Notes and the interest rate on the Euro debt underlying the swap. There was no principal exchange at the inception of the arrangements, and there will be no exchange at maturity. At maturity (or earlier at our option), we and the counterparties will settle the swap agreements at their fair value in cash based on the aggregate notional amount and the then-applicable currency exchange rate compared to the exchange rate at the time the swap agreements were entered into.
Commodity Risk
We source a wide variety of materials and components from a network of global suppliers. While such materials are typically available from numerous suppliers, commodity raw materials such as steel, engineered plastics, copper and polymers, are subject to price fluctuations (including increases due to new or increased tariffs), which could have a negative impact on our results. The impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic may further increase the risk of price fluctuations or the availability of necessary raw materials. We strive to pass along commodity price increases to customers to avoid profit margin erosion and utilize lean initiatives to further mitigate the impact of commodity raw material price fluctuations as we achieve improved efficiencies. We do not hedge commodity risk with any market risk sensitive instruments.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)). The purpose of our disclosure controls and procedures is to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, including this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
Based on the controls evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified, and that management will be timely alerted to material information required to be included in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In addition, no change in our internal control over financial reporting has occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
A description of environmental and other legal matters is included in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report, which is incorporated herein by reference. In addition to the matters noted and discussed in those sections of this report, we are from time to time subject to, and are presently involved in, other litigation and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe that the outcome of such other litigation and legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
The following table sets forth all purchases made by or on behalf of the Company or any “affiliated purchaser,” as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Exchange Act, of shares of our common stock during each month in the third quarter of 2021.
Period | (a) Total Number of Shares (or Units) Purchased | (b) Average Price Paid per Share (or Unit) | (c) Total Number of Shares (or Units) Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs | (d) Maximum Number (or Approximate Dollar Value) of Shares (or Units) That May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Total | 332 | (2) | $ | 86.19 | (2) | — | $50,000,000 | (1) |
(1)On October 28, 2020, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common shares, and we announced the share repurchase authorization in a press release issued on November 3, 2020. Pursuant to this authorization, $50.0 million remained available at the end of the period.
(2)In September 2021, a total of 332 shares were transferred to a rabbi trust that we established in connection with our Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors, pursuant to which non-employee directors may elect to defer directors’ fees into common stock units. EnPro Holdings furnished these shares in exchange for management and other services provided by EnPro. Of these shares, 74 were valued at a price of $82.96, the closing trading price of our common stock on September 15, 2021, and 258 of these shares were valued at a price of $87.12 per share, the closing trading price of our common stock on September 30, 2021. Accordingly, the total 332 shares were valued at a weighted average price of $86.19. We do not consider the transfer of shares from EnPro Holdings in this context to be pursuant to a publicly announced plan or program.
