NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(DOLLARS AND SHARES (EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) IN MILLIONS, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)

NOTE 1

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of Business

ITT Inc. is a diversified manufacturer of highly engineered critical components and customized technology solutions for the transportation, industrial, and oil and gas markets. Unless the context otherwise indicates, references herein to "ITT," "the Company," and such words as "we," "us," and "our" include ITT Inc. and its subsidiaries. ITT operates through three segments: Industrial Process, consisting of industrial pumping and complementary equipment; Motion Technologies, consisting of friction and shock and vibration equipment; and Connect & Control Technologies, consisting of electronic connectors, fluid handling, motion control and noise and energy absorption products. Financial information for our segments is presented in Note 3, Segment Information.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. We consistently applied the accounting policies described in ITT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (2016 Annual Report) in preparing these unaudited financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2016 Annual Report.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are revised as additional information becomes available. Estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, asbestos-related liabilities and recoveries from insurers, revenue recognition, unrecognized tax benefits, deferred tax valuation allowances, projected benefit obligations for postretirement plans, accounting for business combinations, goodwill and other intangible asset impairment testing, environmental liabilities, allowance for doubtful accounts and inventory valuation. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

ITT's quarterly financial periods end on the Saturday that is generally closest to the last day of the calendar quarter, except for the last quarterly period of the fiscal year, which ends on December 31st. For ease of presentation, the quarterly financial statements included herein are described as ending on the last day of the calendar quarter.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 2

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standard updates (ASUs). ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-09 to simplify several aspects of the accounting standard for employee share-based payment transactions, including the classification of excess tax benefits and deficiencies and the accounting for employee forfeitures. ITT elected to adopt this guidance as of January 1, 2017 which includes the following:

•

Excess tax benefits and deficiencies will no longer be recognized as a change in additional paid-in-capital in the equity section of the Balance Sheet. Instead they will be recognized on the Statements of Operations as a tax expense or benefit. On the Statement of Cash Flows, excess tax benefits and deficiencies will no longer be classified as a financing activity. Instead they will be classified as an operating activity. These

provisions were adopted using a prospective method of transition. During the first quarter of 2017, we recorded an income tax benefit of $1.1 on the Statement of Operations and classified this benefit on the Statement of Cash Flows as an operating activity. The prior year's excess tax benefit of $3.0 was recorded as a change in equity on the Balance Sheet and was classified as a financing activity on the Statement of Cash Flows.

Previously unrecognized tax benefits due to net operating loss carryforwards were recognized during the first quarter of 2017 using a modified retrospective approach, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to increase retained earnings by $2.1 as of January 1, 2017. A corresponding deferred tax asset of $25.6 was partially offset by a valuation allowance of $23.5 as the newly recognized net operating losses are not considered more likely than not realizable.


•	The impact of forfeitures will now be recognized as they occur as opposed to previously estimating future employee forfeitures. We adopted this provision utilizing a modified retrospective approach, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment reducing retained earnings by $1.6 as of January 1, 2017.


•	The ASU also provides new guidance to other areas of the standard including minimum statutory tax withholding rules and the calculation of diluted common shares outstanding. The adoption of this provision will be reflected prospectively in the financial statements and did not have a material impact.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07 which amends the Statement of Operations presentation for the components of net periodic benefit cost for entities that sponsor defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. Under the ASU, entities are now required to disaggregate the service cost component and present it with other current compensation costs for the related employees. All other components of net periodic benefit cost will no longer be classified as an operating expense. In addition, only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization on the balance sheet. The ASU requires a retrospective transition method to adopt the requirement to present service costs separately from the other components of net periodic benefit cost in the statements of operations and a prospective transition method to adopt the requirement that prohibits capitalization of all components of net periodic benefit cost on the balance sheet except service costs. The ASU is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018, at which time we expect to adopt the new standard. We are currently assessing the impact of this amendment on our financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 impacting the accounting for leases intending to increase transparency and comparability of organizations by requiring balance sheet presentation of leased assets and increased financial statement disclosure of leasing arrangements. The revised standard will require entities to recognize a liability for their lease obligations and a corresponding asset representing the right to use the underlying asset over the lease term. Lease obligations are to be measured at the present value of lease payments and accounted for using the effective interest method. The accounting for the leased asset will differ slightly depending on whether the agreement is deemed to be a financing or operating lease. For finance leases, the leased asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis and recorded separately from the interest expense in the statements of operations, resulting in higher expense in the earlier part of the lease term. For operating leases, the depreciation and interest expense components are combined, recognized evenly over the term of the lease, and presented as a reduction to operating income. The ASU requires that assets and liabilities be presented or disclosed separately and classified appropriately as current and noncurrent. The ASU further requires additional disclosure of certain qualitative and quantitative information related to lease agreements. The ASU is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter 2019, at which time we expect to adopt the new standard. We are currently assessing our existing lease agreements and related financial disclosures to evaluate the impact of these amendments on our financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 amending the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. The amendments are based on the principle that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. The new guidance will be effective for the Company beginning in its first quarter of 2018. Based on our assessment to date, we have not identified any material changes to the timing of revenue recognition under the new standard. Therefore, at this time, we expect to adopt the new standard using a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application.

NOTE 3

SEGMENT INFORMATION

In the first quarter of 2017, we combined our former Interconnect Solutions and Control Technologies segments to form Connect & Control Technologies. All prior year segment information has been reclassified based on our current segment structure. The Company's segments are reported on the same basis used by our chief operating decision maker, for evaluating performance and for allocating resources. Our three reportable segments are referred to as: Industrial Process, Motion Technologies, and Connect & Control Technologies.

Industrial Process manufactures engineered fluid process equipment serving a diversified mix of customers in global industries such as chemical, oil and gas, mining, and other industrial process markets and is a provider of plant optimization and efficiency solutions and aftermarket services and parts.

Motion Technologies manufactures brake components and specialized sealing solutions, shock absorbers and damping technologies primarily for the global automotive, truck and trailer, public bus and rail transportation markets.

Connect & Control Technologies designs and manufactures harsh-environment connector solutions and critical energy absorption and flow control components for the aerospace and defense, general industrial, medical, and oil and gas markets.

Corporate and Other consists of corporate office expenses including compensation, benefits, occupancy, depreciation and other administrative costs, as well as charges related to certain matters, such as asbestos and environmental liabilities, that are managed at a corporate level and are not included in segment results when evaluating performance or allocating resources. Assets of the segments exclude general corporate assets, which principally consist of cash, investments, asbestos-related receivables, deferred taxes, and certain property, plant and equipment.

RESTRUCTURING ACTIONS

We have initiated various restructuring activities throughout our businesses during the past two years, of which only those noted below are considered to be individually significant. Other less significant restructuring actions taken during 2017 and 2016 included various reduction in workforce initiatives. The table below summarizes the restructuring costs presented within general and administrative expenses in our Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Industrial Process Restructuring Actions

Beginning in early 2015, we have been executing a series of restructuring actions focused on achieving efficiencies and reducing the overall cost structure of the Industrial Process segment. During the first three months of 2017, we continued to pursue these objectives and we recognized $1.3 of restructuring costs primarily related to the exit of certain office space. Cash payments related to the remaining accrual are expected to be substantially complete in 2018, other than the lease exit costs. However, we will continue to monitor and evaluate the need for any additional restructuring actions.

The following table provides a rollforward of the restructuring accruals associated with the Industrial Process restructuring actions.

INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized income tax expense of $9.1 and $11.7 and had an effective tax rate of 16.6% and 23.7%, respectively. The lower effective tax rate in 2017 is primarily driven by tax benefits on excess stock based compensation due to the adoption of ASU 2016-09 and a tax rate change on Korea deferred tax assets. Refer to Note 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, for further information on ASU 2016-09. In addition, the Company continues to benefit from a larger mix of earnings in non-U.S. jurisdictions with favorable tax rates.

The Company operates in various tax jurisdictions and is subject to examination by tax authorities in these jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in several jurisdictions including Canada, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Mexico, South Korea, the U.S. and Venezuela. The estimated tax liability calculation for unrecognized tax benefits considers uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in various tax jurisdictions. Due to the complexity of some uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from the current estimate of the unrecognized tax benefit. Over the next 12 months, the net amount of the tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits in foreign and domestic jurisdictions could change by approximately $19 due to changes in audit status, expiration of statutes of limitations and other events. In addition, the settlement of any future examinations relating to the 2011 and prior tax years could result in changes in amounts attributable to the Company under its Tax Matters Agreement with Exelis Inc. and Xylem Inc. relating to the Company's 2011 spin-off of those businesses.

We expect to make contributions of approximately $8 to $12 during the remainder of 2017, principally related to our other postretirement employee benefit plans.

Amortization from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings related to prior service cost and net actuarial loss was $1.1, net of tax, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. No other reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings were recognized during any of the presented periods.

NOTE 15

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION

Our long-term incentive plan (LTIP) costs are primarily recorded within general and administrative expenses. The following table provides the components of LTIP costs for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.



For the Three Months Ended March 31	2017		2016
Equity based awards	$	3.7	$	2.9
Liability-based awards	0.5		0.5
Total share-based compensation expense	$	4.2	$	3.4

At March 31, 2017, there was $29.6 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested equity awards. This cost is expected to be recognized ratably over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years. Additionally, unrecognized compensation cost related to liability-based awards was $3.8, which is expected to be recognized ratably over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

Year-to-Date 2017 LTIP Activity

The majority of our LTIP awards are granted during the first quarter of each year and vest on the completion of a three-year service period. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we granted the following LTIP awards as provided in the table below:

In each of the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, 0.3 non-qualified stock options were exercised resulting in proceeds of $5.9 and $6.1, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, RSUs of 0.1 and 0.2 vested and were issued, respectively. There were no PSUs that vested on December 31, 2016 because the minimum performance requirements were not met.

NOTE 16

CAPITAL STOCK

On October 27, 2006, a three-year $1 billion share repurchase program was approved by the Board of Directors (Share Repurchase Program). On December 16, 2008, the provisions of the Share Repurchase Program were modified by the Board of Directors to replace the original three-year term with an indefinite term. We did not repurchase any shares of common stock under this program during three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. To date, the Company has repurchased 20.4 shares for $829.4 under the Share Repurchase Program.

Separate from the Share Repurchase Program, the Company repurchased 0.1 shares and 0.2 shares for an aggregate price of $2.3 and $6.9, during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, in settlement of employee tax withholding obligations due upon the vesting of RSUs and PSUs.

NOTE 17

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our businesses. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes and acquisitions or divestitures. We will continue to defend vigorously against all claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information including our assessment of the merits of the particular claim, as well as our current reserves and insurance coverage, we do not expect that such legal proceedings will have a material adverse impact on our financial statements, unless otherwise noted below.

Asbestos Matters

Subsidiaries of ITT, including ITT LLC and Goulds Pumps LLC, have been sued, along with many other companies in product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to asbestos exposure. These claims generally allege that certain products sold by our subsidiaries prior to 1985 contained a part manufactured by a third party (e.g., a gasket) which contained asbestos. To the extent these third-party parts may have contained asbestos, it was encapsulated in the gasket (or other) material and was non-friable. As of March 31, 2017, there were approximately 27 thousand pending claims against ITT subsidiaries, including Goulds Pumps LLC, filed in various state and federal courts alleging injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. Activity related to these asserted asbestos claims during the period was as follows:



For the Three Months Ended March 31 (in thousands)	2017
Pending claims – Beginning	30
New claims	1
Settlements	(1	)
Dismissals	(3	)
Pending claims – Ending	27

Frequently, plaintiffs are unable to identify any ITT LLC or Goulds Pumps LLC products as a source of asbestos exposure. Our experience to date is that a majority of resolved claims are dismissed without any payment from ITT subsidiaries. Management believes that a large majority of the pending claims have little or no value. In addition, because claims are sometimes dismissed in large groups, the average cost per resolved claim can fluctuate significantly from period to period. ITT expects more asbestos-related suits will be filed in the future, and ITT will continue to aggressively defend or seek a reasonable resolution, as appropriate.

Asbestos litigation is a unique form of litigation. Frequently, the plaintiff sues a large number of defendants and does not state a specific claim amount. After filing complaint, the plaintiff engages defendants in settlement negotiations to establish a settlement value based on certain criteria, including the number of defendants in the case. Rarely do the plaintiffs seek to collect all damages from one defendant. Rather, they seek to spread the liability, and thus the payments, among many defendants. As a result of this and other factors, the Company is unable to estimate the maximum potential exposure to pending claims and claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years.

Estimating our exposure to pending asbestos claims and those that may be filed in the future is subject to significant uncertainty and risk as there are multiple variables that can affect the timing, severity, quality, quantity and resolution of claims. Any predictions with respect to the variables impacting the estimate of the asbestos liability and related asset are subject to even greater uncertainty as the projection period lengthens. In light of the variables and uncertainties inherent in the long-term projection of the Company's asbestos exposures, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, which additional costs may be material, we do not believe there is a reasonable basis for estimating those costs at this time.

The asbestos liability and related receivables reflect management's best estimate of future events. However, future events affecting the key factors and other variables for either the asbestos liability or the related receivables could cause actual costs or recoveries to be materially higher or lower than currently estimated. Due to these uncertainties, as well as our inability to reasonably estimate any additional asbestos liability for claims which may be filed beyond the next 10 years, it is difficult to predict the ultimate cost of resolving all pending and unasserted asbestos claims. We believe it is possible that future events affecting the key factors and other variables within the next 10 years, as well as the cost of asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, net of expected recoveries, could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.

Asbestos-Related Costs, Net

As part of our ongoing review of our net asbestos exposure, each quarter we assess the most recent qualitative and quantitative data available for the key inputs and assumptions, comparing the data to expectations on which the most recent annual liability and asset estimates were calculated. Based on this evaluation, the Company determined that no change in the estimate was warranted for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 other than the incremental accrual to maintain a rolling 10-year forecast period. The net asbestos charge for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $14.9 and $15.4, respectively. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2016, we entered into a settlement agreement with an insurer to settle responsibility for multiple insurance claims, resulting in a benefit of $2.6.

Changes in Financial Position

The Company's estimated asbestos exposure, net of expected recoveries for the resolution of all pending claims and claims estimated to be filed in the next 10 years was $575.6 and $573.7 as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.The following table provides a rollforward of the estimated asbestos liability and related assets for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Environmental Matters

In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations. We are responsible, or are alleged to be responsible, for ongoing environmental investigation and site remediation. These sites are in various stages of investigation or remediation and in many of these proceedings our liability is considered de minimis. We have received notification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and from similar state and foreign environmental agencies, that a number of sites formerly or currently owned or operated by ITT, and other properties or water supplies that may be or have been impacted from those operations, contain disposed or recycled materials or wastes and require environmental investigation or remediation. These sites include instances where we have been identified as a potentially responsible party under federal and state environmental laws and regulations.

The following table provides a rollforward of the estimated environmental liability for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.



For the Three Months Ended March 31	2017			2016
Environmental liability - beginning balance	$	76.6		$	82.6
Change in estimates for pre-existing accruals
Continuing operations	(0.7		)	0.7
Discontinued operations	—			0.5
Net cash activity	(3.4		)	(5.1		)
Foreign currency	—			0.1
Environmental liability - ending balance	$	72.5		$	78.8

During the first quarter of 2017, ITT entered into a settlement agreement with a former subsidiary to settle all claims covered by the environmental Qualified Settlement Fund (QSF) established in the first quarter of 2016. The former subsidiary no longer has rights to the funds in the QSF. The settlement resulted in a reduction to both our environmental-related asset and the corresponding deferred income liability balance of $5.2. The total environmental-related asset as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $24.3 and $33.4, respectively.

We are currently involved with 35 active environmental investigation and remediation sites. At March 31, 2017, we have estimated the potential high-end liability range of environmental-related matters to be $121.0.

As actual costs incurred at identified sites in future periods may vary from our current estimates given the inherent uncertainties in evaluating environmental exposures, management believes it is possible that the outcome of these uncertainties may have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.

Other Matters

The Company is responding to a civil subpoena from the Department of Defense, Office of the Inspector General, which was issued in the second quarter of 2015 as part of an investigation being led by the Civil Division of the U.S. Department of Justice. The subpoena and related investigation involve certain products manufactured by the Company’s Connect & Control Technologies segment that are purchased or used by the U.S. government. The Company is cooperating with the government and producing documents responsive to the subpoena. The Company is unable to estimate the timing or outcome of this matter.

ACQUISITIONS

Axtone Railway Components

On January 26, 2017, we acquired 100% of the privately held stock of Axtone Railway Components (Axtone) for a preliminary purchase price of $113.7, net of cash acquired. The preliminary purchase price is subject to change during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date) as certain customary working capital adjustments are finalized. Axtone, which had 2016 revenue of $72, is a manufacturer of highly engineered and customized energy absorption solutions, including springs, buffers, and coupler components for the railway and industrial markets.

The preliminary purchase price for Axtone was allocated to net tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their preliminary fair values as of January 26, 2017, with the excess of the preliminary purchase price of $89.0 recorded as goodwill. The primary areas of purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized relate to the valuation of intangible assets acquired, certain tangible assets and liabilities, income tax, and residual goodwill. We expect to obtain the information necessary to finalize the fair value of the net assets and liabilities during the measurement period. Changes to the preliminary estimates of the fair value during the measurement period will be recorded as adjustments to those assets and liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill in the period they occur. The goodwill arising from this acquisition, which is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes, has been assigned to the Motion Technologies segment.

Executive Summary

During the first quarter of 2017, we continued our focus on optimizing execution across the enterprise while advancing our essential long-term growth plans. We created a new Chief Operating Officer structure, which is driving more robust processes and performance across the company. We also took steps towards aligning the operations and management of our connectors and control technologies businesses to increase focus on the aerospace and industrial markets, optimize operations, leverage shared infrastructure, and drive long-term growth. The result is the creation of a new business segment, Connect & Control Technologies, which is the combination of two previous business segments, Interconnect Solutions and Control Technologies. Our first quarter results reflect benefits from the structural reset at Industrial Process and operational improvements at our connector facilities, as well as from our balanced and diverse portfolio as the impact of difficult markets were mitigated by our continued market share growth and geographic expansion in the transportation end-markets.

In relation to capital deployment, we completed the acquisition of Axtone Railway Group (Axtone), a manufacturer of highly engineered and customized energy absorption solutions for railway and other harsh environment industrial markets. We made further progress on our North American brake pad facility, which is now ahead of the original construction schedule. We have also reached an agreement to sell excess property that is expected to close in the first half of 2018. See Note 19, Subsequent Events, in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for additional information regarding the sale of this property.

Our first quarter 2017 results include:

•

Revenue of $625.8, reflecting year-over-year growth of $16.7 or 2.7% compared to the prior year, was driven by higher sales volumes in the transportation end-markets from share gains in our automotive brake pad business and strength in aerospace and defense. However, our revenue results for the quarter also reflect the continued softness within the oil & gas market, particularly related to project declines due to weak backlog entering 2017. Organic revenue, which excludes the impacts from foreign exchange, acquisitions, and divestitures, increased 1.9% compared to the prior year.

•

Orders of $670.6 reflect year-over-year growth of $47.1 or 7.6%, sequential growth of 17.0%, and a book to bill ratio of 1.07x with all three segments providing a book to bill of 1.0x or greater. The primary drivers of our order growth during the quarter include our continued share gains in the automotive brake pad market, particularly in Europe and China, as well as strong oil & gas orders that include a significant downstream project win in Africa and improved demand in North America, and incremental orders from our newly acquired Axtone business. Organic orders, which excludes the impacts from foreign exchange, acquisitions, and divestitures, increased 7% compared to the prior year.

•

Operating income of $55.6 reflects a $4.6 or 9.0% increase over the prior year, and a 50 basis point improvement to operating margin, driven by incremental restructuring benefits from our structural reset of the Industrial Process segment, as well as higher sales volumes, lower acquisition-related costs, and productivity savings. These favorable drivers more than offset the impact from unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, higher strategic investments to support platform award growth at Motion Technologies, and increased material costs. Adjusted segment operating income increased $2.7, or 3.3%.


•	Income from continuing operations was $0.52 per diluted share, reflecting an increase of $0.10 over the prior year. Adjusted income from continuing operations was $0.64 per diluted share, reflecting a $0.05, or 8.5%, increase over the prior year.

As we move through 2017, we expect that continued uncertainty in global oil and currency markets, incremental pricing pressures, rising commodity costs, and uncertainty from new U.S. Administration policies will provide challenges in the coming year, but we will continue to focus our attention on areas that are within our control. We will continue to progress our Lean transformation, and monitor and reduce our cost structure by taking approximately $30 in restructuring and realignment actions in 2017. We also expect to realize significant benefits from our prior restructuring and productivity actions which will help to mitigate much of the uncertainty in our key end markets. In addition, we expect strong performances from our Automotive and Rail businesses to continue into 2017.

Further details related to these results are contained elsewhere in the Discussion of Financial Results section. Refer to the section titled "Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures" for reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP metrics.

(a)	See the section titled "Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures" for a definition and reconciliation of organic revenue.

Industrial Process

Both revenue and organic revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $22.7, or 10.9%, as a 39% decline in project pump revenue due to weak backlog entering the year and slow parts activity, were partially offset by 2% growth in short-cycle baseline pumps and valves growth to general industrial markets and increased service activity to the chemical and general industrial markets.

Orders for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were $221.8, reflecting an increase of $33.0 or 17.5% over the prior year, and a book to bill ratio of 1.19x. Activity for the quarter included a $26 downstream oil and gas order in Africa. Excluding this large project win, orders increased approximately 4% compared to the prior year and sequentially (versus the fourth quarter of 2016) due to growth in aftermarket orders from strong North American service activity, a large oil and gas spares order in Europe, and increased part orders to the mining and general industrial markets. Order results also reflect 2% growth in short-cycle baseline pumps and valves primarily within the oil & gas and general industrial markets. Organic orders for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $32.9, or 17.4%.

The level of order and shipment activity related to project pumps can vary significantly from period to period, which may impact year-over-year comparisons. Backlog as of March 31, 2017 was $385, reflecting an increase of $37.8, or 10.9%, from the December 31, 2016 level.

Motion Technologies

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $30.3, or 11.8%, including incremental revenue of $14.0 from our 2017 acquisition of Axtone and unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts of $8.4, resulting in organic revenue growth of $24.7, or 9.6%. Organic revenue grew 12% from our friction materials business due to continued strength in the automotive OEM sales channel primarily from market and share gains in Europe and China and strength in aftermarket brake pads from an increase in dealer service activity. Wolverine contributed organic revenue growth of 7% driven by share gains in sealing solutions across key geographies. Organic revenue from our KONI business increased 1% as shock absorber strength from car enthusiast and defense markets were offset by North American and China railway market weakness.

Orders for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were $287.2, reflecting an increase of $21.8, or 8.2% over the prior year, and a book to bill ratio of 1.00x. Order results for the quarter include incremental orders of $12.3 from our acquisition of Axtone and unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts of $8.2, resulting in organic order growth of $17.7, or 6.7%. Organic order growth reflects a 12% increase from our friction materials business and an 8% increase from Wolverine business. KONI orders declined approximately 19% due to record prior year defense orders.

Connect & Control Technologies

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $9.0, or 6.2%, reflecting growth in the general industrial connectors market from increased heavy vehicle activity due to new emissions standards in China, increases in defense market connector and component demand, and 30% sales growth from the oil and gas market stemming from positive market trends, share gains, and new product introductions. Aerospace sales were flat as growth in connector and environmental control system sales were offset by lower commercial aerospace component sales activity due to lower OEM wide-body platform production rates. Organic revenue increased $9.8, or 6.8%, which excludes unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts of $0.8.

Orders for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were $162.4, reflecting a decrease of $8.1, or 4.8% versus the prior year, and a book to bill ratio of 1.06x. The decrease in orders reflects a 13% decline in components due to unfavorable defense and environmental control system product order activity timing, which was partially offset by connector product order growth of approximately 6% due to increase order activity across key end-markets, including 40% order growth in the oil and gas market. Organic orders for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $7.3, or 4.3%, which excludes unfavorable foreign currency translation of $0.8.

The U.S. Defense and Logistics Agency, Land and Maritime (DLA) issued a temporary stop shipment/stop production order to our connectors business which prevents it from producing or shipping certain military specified connectors. The segment’s annual sales for the products affected is approximately $8 to $10. We are cooperating with the DLA’s request for information. However, if these conditions remain unresolved, it could further negatively impact our revenue and results of operations.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $202.3 and $195.3, respectively, reflecting a gross margin of 32.3% and 32.1%, respectively, a 20 basis point improvement over the prior year. The increase in gross margin is primarily driven by lower labor costs as a result of restructuring benefits from our structural cost reset at our Industrial Process segment and operational improvements at our Connect & Control Technologies segment. Partially offsetting the increase was unfavorable automotive and aerospace pricing impacts, an unfavorable change in sales mix, and increased direct materials costs due to higher commodity prices impacting our Motion Technologies segment.

OPERATING EXPENSES



For the Three Months Ended March 31	2017		2016		Change
General and administrative expenses	$	66.2	$	69.0	(4.1	)%
Sales and marketing expenses	43.1		43.3		(0.5	)%
Research and development expenses	22.5		19.2		17.2	%
Asbestos-related costs, net	14.9		12.8		16.4	%
Total operating expenses	$	146.7	$	144.3	1.7	%
Total Operating Expenses By Segment:
Industrial Process	$	45.8	$	54.1	(15.3	)%
Motion Technologies	40.8		31.9		27.9	%
Connect & Control Technologies	37.2		37.0		0.5	%
Corporate & Other	22.9		21.3		7.5	%

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $2.8, or 4.1%, reflecting an approximate $6 benefit from lower restructuring charges and current year savings from past restructuring actions, which were partially offset by higher incentive-related compensation costs and incremental costs associated with our recently acquired Axtone business.

Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $0.2, or 0.5%, as lower selling and commission expenses at Industrial Process were offset by higher costs at Motion Technologies and incremental sales and marketing costs of $0.7, related to our acquisition of Axtone.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $3.3, or 17.2%, primarily due to increased product development activities at Motion Technologies.

Asbestos-related costs, net, increased $2.1, or 16.4% during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was primarily driven by a benefit of $2.6 in the prior year for a settlement agreement with an insurer to settle responsibility for multiple insurance claims. See Note 17, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information.

OPERATING INCOME



For the Three Months Ended March 31	2017			2016			Change

Segment operating margin	12.5		%	11.8		%	70	bp
Consolidated operating margin	8.9		%	8.4		%	50	bp

Industrial Process operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $1.7, or 18.9%. The decline primarily resulted from unfavorable impacts from volume and mix of approximately $10, as well as negative impacts from cost overruns associated with complex pump projects. In addition, unfavorable foreign currency impacted operating income by $1.2 compared to the prior year. Incremental restructuring benefits and improved operational execution on lower volumes partially offset the decline.

Motion Technologies operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $4.2, or 8.3%, as benefits from higher sales volumes and savings from productivity and sourcing incentives more than offset the approximately $10 of negative impacts from higher material and labor costs, unfavorable pricing and sales mix impacts, higher strategic investment costs, and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency fluctuations. Our acquisition of Axtone provided a modest incremental increase to operating income during the quarter.

Connect & Control Technologies operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $3.9, or 31.5%, as higher sales volume, operational improvements at our North American connector facilities, and incremental restructuring benefits provided operating income growth of approximately $7. These items were partially offset by unfavorable pricing, sales mix, and foreign currency fluctuation impacts.

Other corporate costs for the three months ended March 31, 2017 declined by $0.3, or 3.6% reflecting a favorable comparison to a prior year foreign currency loss of $2.4 and lower environmental costs that were partially offset by certain costs associated primarily with the sale of excess property and higher long-term incentive costs of $1.1.

INTEREST AND NON-OPERATING INCOME AND EXPENSES, NET

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, interest and non-operating expenses, net decreased $0.9 to $0.8. The decrease is principally related to lower average outstanding debt and an increase in interest income of $0.5 related to time deposits.

LIQUIDITY

Funding and Liquidity Strategy

We monitor our funding needs and design and execute strategies to meet overall liquidity requirements, including the management of our capital structure, on both a short- and long-term basis. We expect to fund our ongoing working capital, capital expenditures, dividends and financing requirements through cash flows from operations and cash on hand or by accessing the commercial paper market. If our access to the commercial paper market were adversely affected, we believe that alternative sources of liquidity, including our Revolving Credit Agreement, described below, would be sufficient to meet our short-term funding requirements.

We manage our worldwide cash requirements considering available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct business and the cost effectiveness with which those funds can be accessed. We have identified and continue to look for opportunities to access cash balances in excess of local operating requirements to meet our global liquidity needs in a cost-efficient manner. A majority of our cash and cash equivalents is held by our international subsidiaries. We have transferred, and plan to continue to, transfer cash between certain international subsidiaries and the U.S. and between other international subsidiaries when it is cost effective to do so. Our intent is generally to indefinitely reinvest these funds outside of the U.S. consistent with our overall intention to support growth and expand in markets outside the U.S. through the development of products, increased non-U.S. capital spending and potentially the acquisition of foreign businesses. However, we have determined that certain undistributed foreign earnings generated in Luxembourg, Japan, Hong Kong, and South Korea should not be considered permanently reinvested outside of the U.S. There were no cash distributions from foreign countries for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Cash distributions from foreign countries amounted to $100.0 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The timing and amount of additional future distributions, if any, remains under evaluation.

The amount and timing of dividends payable on our common stock are within the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will be based on, and affected by, a number of factors, including our financial position and results of operations, available cash, expected capital spending plans, prevailing business conditions and other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant. Therefore, there can be no assurance as to what level of dividends, if any, will be paid in the future. In the first quarter of 2017, we declared a dividend of $0.128 per share for shareholders of record on March 13, 2017, which was paid on April 3, 2017. The dividend declared in the first quarter of 2017 is a 3.2% increase from the prior year.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no shares of common stock repurchased under our $1 billion share repurchase program. To date, under the program, the Company has repurchased 20.4 shares for $829.4.

Significant factors that affect our overall management of liquidity include our credit ratings, the adequacy of commercial paper and supporting bank lines of credit, and the ability to attract long-term capital on satisfactory terms. We assess these factors along with current market conditions on a continuous basis, and as a result, may alter the mix of our short- and long-term financing when it is advantageous to do so.

Commercial Paper

We access the commercial paper market to supplement the cash flows generated internally and to provide additional short-term funding for strategic investments and other funding requirements. We manage our short-term liquidity through the use of our commercial paper program by adjusting the level of commercial paper borrowings as opportunities to deploy additional capital arise and it is cost effective to do so. As of March 31, 2017, we had an outstanding commercial paper balance of $112.0. The average outstanding commercial paper balance during the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $117.1. There have been no material changes that have impacted our funding and liquidity capabilities since December 31, 2016.

Credit Facilities

Our revolving $500 credit agreement (the Revolving Credit Agreement) provides for increases of up to $200 for a possible maximum total of $700 in aggregate principal amount, at the request of the Company and with the consent of the institutions providing such increased commitments. The Revolving Credit Agreement is intended to provide access to additional liquidity and be a source of alternate funding to the commercial paper program, if needed. Our policy is to maintain unused committed bank lines of credit in an amount greater than outstanding commercial paper balances. The provisions of the Revolving Credit Agreement require that we maintain an interest coverage ratio, as defined, of at least 3.0 and a leverage ratio, as defined, of not more than 3.0. At March 31, 2017, we had $100.0 outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2017, our interest coverage ratio and leverage ratio were within the prescribed thresholds. In the event of certain ratings downgrades of the Company, to a level below investment grade, the direct and indirect significant U.S. subsidiaries of the Company would be required to guarantee the obligations under the credit facility. The Revolving Credit Agreement matures in November 2021.

Sources and Uses of Liquidity

Our principal source of liquidity is our cash flow generated from operating activities, which provides us with the ability to meet the majority of our short-term funding requirements. The following table summarizes net cash derived from operating, investing, and financing activities from continuing operations, as well as net cash from discontinued operations, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.



For the Three Months Ended March 31	2017			2016
Operating activities	$	27.1		$	5.7
Investing activities	(150.1		)	(24.8		)
Financing activities	3.7			16.9
Foreign exchange	7.9			9.9
Total net cash flow from continuing operations	(111.4		)	7.7
Net cash from discontinued operations	(0.8		)	7.5
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	(112.2	)	$	15.2

Net cash provided by operating activities was $27.1 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $5.7 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The change in net cash provided by operating activities primarily reflects higher incentive compensation payments in the prior year as well as favorable changes in working capital, primarily accounts payable principally related to timing of payments. This was partially offset by higher asbestos payments of $8.7 and higher tax payments of $8.2.

Net cash used by investing activities was $150.1 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to a $24.8 net use of cash during the same prior year period. The year-over-year increase reflects the purchase of Axtone for $113.7 (net of cash acquired), as well as higher capital expenditures which increased $15.7 primarily due to capacity expansion projects in support of global automotive friction growth.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $3.7 reflecting a decrease of $13.2 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 primarily due to a decrease in net borrowings of $27.9. This was partially offset by lower dividend payments which declined by $11.2 due to the timing of our quarterly dividend payment.

Net cash used by discontinued operations was $0.8 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to net cash provided by discontinued operation for the three months ended March 31, 2016 of $7.5. The change of $8.3 is primarily driven by a cash payment in the prior year from Xylem Inc. related to the Tax Matters Agreement.

Asbestos

Based on the estimated undiscounted asbestos liability as of March 31, 2017 for claims filed or estimated to be filed over the next 10 years, we have estimated that we will be able to recover approximately 39% of the asbestos indemnity and defense costs from our insurers. Actual insurance reimbursements may vary significantly from period to period and the anticipated recovery rate is expected to decline over time due to gaps in our insurance coverage, reflecting uninsured periods, the insolvency of certain insurers, prior settlements with our insurers and our expectation that certain insurance policies will exhaust within the next 10 years. In the 10th year of our estimate, our insurance recoveries are currently projected to be approximately 15%. Additionally, future recovery rates may be impacted by other factors, such as future insurance settlements, insolvencies and judicial determinations relevant to our coverage program, which are difficult to predict and subject to a high degree of uncertainty.

While there are overall limits on the aggregate amount of insurance available to the Company with respect to asbestos claims, with respect to certain coverage, those overall limits were not reached by the estimated liability recorded by the Company at March 31, 2017.

Further, there is uncertainty in estimating when cash payments related to the recorded asbestos liability will be fully expended and such cash payments will continue for a number of years beyond the next 10 years due to the significant proportion of future claims included in the estimated asbestos liability and the delay between the date a claim is filed and when it is resolved. Subject to these inherent uncertainties, it is expected that cash payments related to pending claims and claims to be filed in the next 10 years will extend through approximately 2030.

Although asbestos cash outflows can vary significantly from year to year, our current net cash outflows, net of tax benefits, are projected to average $15 to $25 over the next five years, as compared to an average of $13 over the past three years, and increase to an average of approximately $30 to $40 per year over the remainder of the projection period.

In light of the variables and uncertainties inherent in the long-term projection of the Company's asbestos exposures and potential recoveries, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, we do not believe that there is a reasonable basis for estimating the number of future claims, the nature of future claims, or the cost to resolve future claims for years beyond the next 10 years at this time. Accordingly, no liability or related asset has been recorded for any costs that may be incurred for claims asserted subsequent to 2027.

Due to these uncertainties, as well as our inability to reasonably estimate any additional asbestos liability for claims that may be filed beyond the next 10 years, it is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome of the cost of resolving the pending and estimated unasserted asbestos claims. We believe it is possible that the future events affecting the key factors and other variables within the next 10 years, as well as the cost of asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, net of expected recoveries, could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS AND NON-GAAP MEASURES

Management reviews a variety of key performance indicators including revenue, segment operating income and margins, earnings per share, order growth, and backlog, some of which are non-GAAP. In addition, we consider certain measures to be useful to management and investors when evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented. These measures provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations and management of assets from period to period. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including, but not limited to, acquisitions, dividends, and share repurchases. These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and should not be considered a substitute for measures determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following non-GAAP measures, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, to be key performance indicators:

"organic revenue" and "organic orders" are defined as revenue and orders, excluding the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations, acquisitions, and divestitures. Divestitures include sales of portions of our business that did not meet the criteria for presentation as a discontinued operation. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency fluctuations is estimated using a fixed exchange rate for both the current and prior periods. Management believes that reporting organic revenue and organic orders provides useful information to investors by helping identify underlying trends in our business and facilitating easier comparisons of our revenue performance with prior and future periods and to our peers. Reconciliations of organic revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are provided below.

"adjusted segment operating income" is defined as operating income, adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, restructuring costs, realignment costs, certain asset impairment charges, certain acquisition-related expenses, and other unusual or infrequent operating items. Special items represent significant charges or credits that impact current results, which management views as unrelated to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. We believe that adjusted segment operating income is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating ongoing operating profitability, as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors.

Reconciliations of segment operating income to adjusted segment operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 are provided below.



Three Months Ended March 31, 2017	Industrial Process			Motion Technologies			Connect & Control Technologies			Total Segment
Segment operating income		$	7.3		$	54.9		$	16.3		$	78.5
Restructuring costs		1.3			0.2			0.5			2.0

Adjusted segment operating income		$	12.2		$	53.1		$	15.7		$	81.0


(a)	Primarily reflects realignment costs associated with an action to move certain production lines in our Connect & Control Technologies segment in 2017 and 2016; and 2017 costs associated with management reorganization at our Industrial Process segment.

"adjusted income from continuing operations" and "adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share" are defined as income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. and income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. per diluted share, adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, asbestos-related costs, restructuring costs, realignment costs, certain asset impairment charges, certain acquisition-related expenses, income tax settlements or adjustments, and other unusual or infrequent non-operating items. Special items represent significant charges or credits, on an after-tax basis, that impact current results, which management views as unrelated to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. We believe that adjusted income from continuing operations is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating ongoing operating profitability, as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors.

A reconciliation of adjusted income from continuing operations, including adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share, is provided below.



For the Three Months Ended March 31	2017			2016
Income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc.	$	46.1		$	37.7
Net asbestos-related costs, net of tax benefit of $5.5 and $4.7, respectively	9.4			8.1
Restructuring costs, net of tax benefit of $0.9 and $1.4, respectively	1.7			4.1
Tax-related special items^(a)	(3.1		)	1.3
Realignment costs, net of tax benefit of $1.7 and $0.7, respectively^(b)	2.9			0.2
Acquisition-related costs, net of tax benefit of $0.3 and $0.5, respectively	0.4			1.9
Adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc.	$	57.4		$	53.3
Income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. per diluted share	$	0.52		$	0.42
Adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. per diluted share	$	0.64		$	0.59


(a)	Tax-related special items for the three months ended March 31, 2017 primarily relate to a tax rate change in a foreign jurisdiction, tax benefits on excess stock based compensation, and distribution of foreign earnings. Tax-related special items for the three months ended March 31, 2016 primarily related to distributions of foreign earnings.


(b)	Realignment costs include certain costs associated with the sale of excess property in 2017 and costs associated with an action to move certain production lines in our Connect & Control Technologies segment in both 2017 and 2016.

"adjusted free cash flow" is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, adjusted for cash payments for restructuring costs, realignment actions, net asbestos cash flows and other significant items that impact current results which management views as unrelated to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. Due to other financial obligations and commitments, including asbestos, the entire free cash flow may not be available for discretionary purposes. We believe that adjusted free cash flow provides useful information to investors as it provides insight into the primary cash flow metric used by management to monitor and evaluate cash flows generated by our operations. A reconciliation of adjusted free cash flow is provided below.



For the Three Months Ended March 31	2017			2016
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	27.1		$	5.7
Capital expenditures	(36.7		)	(21.0		)
Restructuring cash payments	5.4			6.5
Net asbestos cash flows	13.0			4.3
Other cash payments^(a)	4.5			—
Adjusted free cash flow	$	13.3		$	(4.5	)


(a)	Other cash payments during 2017 primarily relate to costs associated with the pending sale of excess property.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

See Note 2 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for information on recent accounting pronouncements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of ITT's financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. ITT believes the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the 2016 Annual Report describes the critical accounting estimates that are used in the preparation of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management's estimates. There have been no significant changes concerning ITT's critical accounting estimates as described in our 2016 Annual Report.



ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There has been no material change in the information concerning market risk as stated in our 2016 Annual Report.



ITEM 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION



ITEM 1.	LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our businesses. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes and acquisitions or divestitures. Descriptions of certain legal proceedings to which the Company is a party are contained in Note 17, Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report and are incorporated by reference herein. Such descriptions include the following recent developments:

Asbestos Proceedings

Subsidiaries of ITT, ITT LLC and Goulds Pumps LLC, are joined as a defendant with numerous other companies in product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to asbestos exposure. These claims allege that certain of their products sold prior to 1985 contained a part manufactured by a third party (e.g., a gasket) which contained asbestos. To the extent these third-party parts may have contained asbestos, it was encapsulated in the gasket (or other) material and was non-friable. Frequently, the plaintiffs are unable to identify any ITT LLC or Goulds Pumps LLC products as a source of asbestos exposure. In addition, a large majority of claims pending against the Company subsidiaries have been placed on inactive dockets because the plaintiff cannot demonstrate a significant compensable loss. Our experience to date is that a substantial portion of resolved claims have been dismissed without payment by the Company's subsidiaries.

We record a liability for pending asbestos claims and asbestos claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years. While it is probable that we will incur additional costs for future claims to be filed against the Company, a liability for potential future claims beyond the next 10 years is not reasonably estimable due to the variables and uncertainties inherent in the long-term projection of the Company's asbestos exposures and potential recoveries. As of March 31, 2017, we have recorded an undiscounted asbestos-related liability for pending claims and unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years of $942.9, including expected legal fees, and an associated asset of $367.3 which represents estimated recoveries from insurers, resulting in a net asbestos exposure of $575.6.

On October 27, 2006, our Board of Directors approved a three-year $1 billion Share Repurchase Program. On December 16, 2008, our Board of Directors modified the provisions of the Share Repurchase Program to replace the original three-year term with an indefinite term. As of March 31, 2017, we had repurchased 20.4 shares for $829.4, including commissions, under the Share Repurchase Program. The program is consistent with our capital allocation process, which has centered on those investments necessary to grow our businesses organically and through acquisitions, while also providing cash returns to shareholders. Our strategy for cash flow utilization is to invest in our business, execute strategic acquisitions, pay dividends and repurchase common stock.



ITEM 3.	DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.



ITEM 4.	MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.



ITEM 5.	OTHER INFORMATION

Disclosure pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction & Syria Human Rights Act (ITRA)

This disclosure is made pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 which added subsection (r) to Section 13 of the Exchange Act (Section 13(r)). Section 13(r) requires an issuer to disclose in its annual or quarterly reports whether it or any of its affiliates have knowingly engaged in certain activities, transactions or dealings relating to Iran. Disclosure of such activities, transactions or dealings is required even when conducted outside the United States by non-U.S. persons in compliance with applicable law, and whether or not such activities are sanctionable under U.S. law.

In its 2012 Annual Report, ITT described its acquisition of all the shares of Joh. Heinr. Bornemann GmbH (Bornemann) in November 2012, as well as certain activities of Bornemann in Iran and the wind down of those activities in accordance with a General License issued on December 26, 2012 (the General License) by the Office of Foreign Assets Control. As permitted by the General License, on or before March 8, 2013, Bornemann completed the wind-down activities and ceased all activities in Iran. As required to be disclosed by Section 13(r), the gross revenues and operating income to Bornemann from its Iranian activities subsequent to its acquisition by ITT were Euros 2.2 million and Euros 1.5 million, respectively. Prior to its acquisition by ITT, Bornemann issued a performance bond to its Iranian customer in the amount of Euros 1.3 million (the Bond). Bornemann requested that the Bond be canceled prior to March 8, 2013; however, the former customer refused this request and as a result the Bond remains outstanding. Bornemann did not receive gross revenues or operating income, or pay interest, with respect to the Bond in any subsequent periods through March 31, 2017, however, Bornemann did pay fees in 2016 of approximately Euros 11 thousand to the German financial institution which is maintaining the Bond.
