FORWARD-LOOKING AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
Some of the information included herein includes forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather represent only a belief regarding future events based on current expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections about our business, future financial results and the industry in which we operate, and other legal, regulatory and economic developments. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, future strategic plans and other statements that describe the company’s business strategy, outlook, objectives, plans, intentions or goals, and any discussion of future events and future operating or financial performance.
We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “target,” “future,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “potential,” “continue,” “guidance” and other similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are uncertain and, by their nature, many are inherently unpredictable and outside of ITT’s control, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in, or reasonably inferred from, such forward-looking statements.
Where in any forward-looking statement we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is based on current plans and expectations of our management, expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will occur or that anticipated results will be achieved or accomplished.
Among the factors that could cause our results to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements are risks and uncertainties inherent in our business including, without limitation:
impacts on our business due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the rise of the COVID-19 Delta variant, as well as the timing, effectiveness and availability of vaccines or other medical remedies and people’s attitudes towards receiving them; including disruptions to our operations and demand for our products, increased costs, disruption of supply chain and other constraints in the availability of key commodities and other necessary services, government-mandated site closures, employee illness, skilled labor shortages, the impact of travel restrictions and stay-in-place restrictions on our business and workforce, customer and supplier bankruptcies, impacts to the global economy and financial markets, and liquidity challenges in accessing capital markets;
uncertain global economic and capital markets conditions, including due to COVID-19, trade disputes between the U.S. and its trading partners, the new U.S. administration, political and social unrest, and the availability and fluctuations in prices of steel, oil, copper, and other commodities;
volatility in raw material prices and our suppliers’ ability to meet quality and delivery requirements;
fluctuations in demand or customers’ levels of capital investment and maintenance expenditures, especially in the oil and gas, chemical, and mining markets, or changes in our customers’ anticipated production schedules, especially in the commercial aerospace market;
failure to manage the distribution of products and services effectively;
the risk of material business interruptions, particularly at our manufacturing facilities;
risks due to our operations and sales outside the U.S. and in emerging markets;
the extent to which there are quality problems with respect to manufacturing processes or finished goods;
loss of or decrease in sales from our most significant customers;



fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;
failure to compete successfully and innovate in our markets;
risks related to government contracting, including changes in levels of government spending and regulatory and contractual requirements applicable to sales to the U.S. government;
fluctuations in our effective tax rate;
failure to protect our intellectual property rights or violations of the intellectual property rights of others;
the risk of cybersecurity breaches;
changes in laws relating to the use and transfer of personal and other information;
failure of portfolio management strategies, including cost-saving initiatives, to meet expectations;
changes in environmental laws or regulations, discovery of previously unknown or more extensive contamination, or the failure of a potentially responsible party to perform;
failure to comply with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or other applicable anti-corruption legislation, export controls and trade sanctions, including tariffs;
risk of product liability claims and litigation; and
risk of liabilities from past divestitures and spin-offs.
More information on factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated is included in our reports filed with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (particularly under the caption “Risk Factors”), our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in other documents we file from time to time with the SEC.
The forward-looking statements included in this Report speak only as of the date of this Report. We undertake no obligation (and expressly disclaim any obligation) to update any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral or as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(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 energy 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: Motion Technologies (MT), consisting of friction and shock and vibration equipment; Industrial Process (IP), consisting of industrial flow equipment and services; and Connect & Control Technologies (CCT), consisting of electronic connectors, fluid handling, motion control, composite materials and noise and energy absorption products. Financial information for our segments is presented in Note 3, Segment Information.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a pandemic, resulting in certain local government-mandated site closures. While most of our businesses were deemed essential, we experienced disruption in our operations due to decreased customer demand, temporary plant closures, and elevated safety standards to keep our employees safe. The Company continues to face certain risks and uncertainties resulting from COVID-19, including the severity of a resurgence of COVID-19 or new strains of the virus, as well as the speed of distribution of the COVID-19 vaccines and people’s attitudes towards receiving the vaccines. Due to these uncertainties, the severity and extent of future impacts from COVID-19 or any new strains of the virus cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
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 known adjustments (which consist primarily of normal, recurring accruals, estimates and assumptions) necessary to state fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020, presented herein, has been derived from our audited balance sheet included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (2020 Annual Report) for the year ended December 31, 2020 but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. We consistently applied the accounting policies described in the 2020 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 2020 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 and may be impacted by the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic. Estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, 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 and assets, allowance for credit losses and inventory valuation. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Effective July 1 2021, the Company divested the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities to a third-party. As a result of the transaction, all associated asbestos-related assets and liabilities were removed from the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, other than current liabilities for certain transaction costs. See Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, for further information.
ITT’s quarterly financial periods end on the Saturday that is closest to the last day of the calendar quarter, except for the last quarterly period of the fiscal year, which ends on December 31st. ITT’s second quarter for 2021 and 2020 ended on July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, respectively, and were both thirteen week periods.
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.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted:
In March 2020 and January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, respectively. Together, the ASUs provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This guidance was effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. We do not expect this guidance to have a significant impact on our operating results, financial position, or cash flows; however, we will continue to monitor the potential impact, if adopted.
NOTE 3
SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s segments are reported on the same basis used by our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our chief operating decision maker, for evaluating performance and for allocating resources. Our three reportable segments are referred to as: Motion Technologies, Industrial Process, and Connect & Control Technologies.
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.
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.
Connect & Control Technologies manufactures harsh-environment connector solutions, critical energy absorption, flow control components, and composite materials 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.

Contract Assets and Liabilities
Contract assets consist of unbilled amounts where revenue recognized exceeds customer billings, net of allowances for credit losses. Contract assets are included in other current assets and other non-current assets in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet. Contract liabilities consist of advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. Contract liabilities are included in accrued liabilities and other non-current liabilities in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet. The following table represents our net contract assets and liabilities as of July 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

2020 Global Restructuring Plan
During 2020, we initiated an organizational-wide restructuring plan to reduce the overall cost structure of the Company primarily in response to a reduction in demand from the COVID-19 pandemic. Through July 3, 2021, we have recognized restructuring charges of $45.1, including $43.8 in 2020, which are primarily related to involuntary severance costs. We expect to incur additional restructuring charges of approximately $3 during the remainder of 2021 to complete this action. Cash payments during the six months ended July 3, 2021 were $6.5. The restructuring liability as of July 3, 2021 was $10.6, which we expect to be substantially paid during 2021, and is presented on our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet within accrued liabilities.

Income tax expense (benefit)$143.9 $(28.1)$168.6 $(3.4)
Effective tax rate78.6 %(153.6)%57.3 %(2.7)%
The higher effective tax rate for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 resulted from the Company recording tax expense on the reversal of previously recorded deferred tax assets of $116.9 resulting from the Company’s divestiture of the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities (see Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, for further information). In addition, the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 was lower due to tax benefits of $26.7 resulting from an internal restructuring in Europe. This reorganization resulted in a refined projection of future earnings, which will result in the realization of a portion of our deferred tax assets.
On March 11, 2021, President Biden signed into law the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA), a $1.9 trillion COVID-19 stimulus legislation to accelerate the United States' recovery from the economic and health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. ARPA builds upon many of the measures in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act from March 2020 (the 2020 CARES Act) and the Consolidated Appropriations Act from December 2020. The Act extends the employee retention credit through the end of 2021 and maintains the credit per employee per quarter initially included in the Consolidated Appropriations Act. During the three and six months ended July 3, 2021, the Company recognized a benefit of $1.7 and $4.1 from the employee retention credit, and recognized a benefit of $7.2 during the second quarter of 2020. The benefit was recorded in operating income and related to the employer portion of payroll taxes. Certain non-U.S. jurisdictions have enacted similar stimulus measures. We continue to monitor any effects that may result from the ARPA and 2020 CARES Act or other similar legislation globally.
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 the Czech Republic, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Italy, 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 of these 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 decrease by approximately $16 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.

Depreciation expense of $21.5 and $20.7, and $42.9 and $41.2 was recognized in the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, respectively.
During the first quarter of 2020, we recorded an impairment of $4.0 for a business within IP due to challenging economic conditions in the upstream oil and gas market combined with impacts associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Long-lived assets of the business, with a carrying value of $14.0, primarily building and improvements, machinery and equipment, were reduced to their current estimated fair value of $10.0. The estimate of fair value, categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, was determined based on a market approach estimating the net proceeds that would be received for the sale of the assets. Significant additional adverse changes to the economic environment or future cash flows of our businesses could cause us to record additional impairment charges in future periods, which may be material.

Significant additional adverse changes to the economic environment or future cash flows of our businesses could cause us to record additional impairment charges in future periods, which may be material.
Amortization expense related to finite-lived intangible assets was $4.9 and $4.2, and $10.0 and $9.0 for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, respectively.

Commercial paper outstanding of $197.4 as of July 3, 2021 was issued through both the Company’s U.S. and Euro programs. Commercial paper outstanding under the U.S. program was $150.0, with a weighted average interest rate of 0.21%. Commercial paper outstanding under the Euro program was $47.4, with a weighted average negative interest rate of (0.44)%. Commercial paper outstanding of $104.3 as of December 31, 2020 was issued entirely under the Company’s Euro program and had a weighted average negative interest rate of (0.06)%. Outstanding commercial paper for both periods had maturity terms less than three months from the date of issuance.
Short-term Loans
On November 25, 2014, we entered into a competitive advance and revolving credit facility agreement (the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement) with a consortium of third party lenders including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and Citibank, N.A., as syndication agent. During 2019, we extended the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement maturity date to November 25, 2022. The 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement provides for an aggregate principal amount of up to $500 of (i) revolving extensions of credit (the revolving loans) outstanding at any time, (ii) competitive advance borrowing option which will be provided on an uncommitted competitive advance basis through an auction mechanism (the competitive advances), and (iii) letters of credit for a face amount up to $100 at any time outstanding. Subject to certain conditions, we are permitted to terminate permanently the total commitments and reduce commitments in minimum amounts of $10. Borrowings under the credit facility are available in U.S. dollars, Euros or British pound sterling. We are permitted to request that lenders increase the commitments under the facility by up to $200 for a maximum aggregate principal amount of $700, however this is subject to certain conditions and therefore may not be available to us.
The interest rate per annum on the Revolving Credit Agreement is based on the LIBOR rate of the currency we borrow in, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements, plus a margin of 1.1%. As of July 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had no outstanding obligations under the credit facility. There is a 0.15% fee per annum applicable to the commitments under the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement. The fees and margin are subject to adjustment should the Company’s credit ratings change.
The 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, will limit or restrict our ability to: incur additional debt or issue guarantees; create liens; enter into certain sale and lease-back transactions; merge or consolidate with another person; sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of assets; liquidate or dissolve; and enter into restrictive covenants. Additionally, the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement requires us not to permit the ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (leverage ratio) to exceed 3.00 to 1.00 at any time, or the ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense (interest coverage ratio) to be less than 3.00 to 1.00. 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.
As of July 3, 2021, our interest coverage ratio and leverage ratios associated with short-term loans were within the prescribed thresholds.
On April 29, 2020, we entered into two 364-day term revolving credit agreements totaling $200 (the Incremental Revolving Credit Agreements) which provided the Company with additional liquidity in excess of the Revolving Credit Agreement. The credit agreements expired in April 2021 and we did not renew the
16


agreements. Borrowings were available in U.S. dollars and the interest rate per annum was based on the LIBOR rate, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements, plus a margin of up to 1.55%. The Incremental Revolving Credit Agreements were subject to fees of up to 0.35% per annum. The fees and margin were subject to adjustment should the Company’s credit ratings change. All other key provisions of the Incremental Revolving Credit Agreements mirrored those of the Revolving Credit Agreement described above, including all covenants. In addition, the Incremental Revolving Credit Agreements did not violate any negative covenants associated with the existing Revolving Credit Agreement.
Subsequent Event
On August 5, 2021, we refinanced our revolving credit facility agreement to replace the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement with a syndicate of third party lenders including Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement). The 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement was terminated on August 5, 2021. The 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement matures in August 2026 and provides for an aggregate principal amount of up to $700. The 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a potential increase of commitment of up to $350 for a possible maximum of $1,050 in aggregate commitments at the request of the Company and with the consent of the institutions providing such increase of commitments.
The 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, will limit or restrict our ability to: incur additional debt or issue guarantees; create certain liens; merge or consolidate with another person; sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of assets; liquidate or dissolve; and enter into restrictive covenants. Additionally, the 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement requires us not to permit the ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (leverage ratio) to exceed 3.50 to 1.00, with a qualified acquisition step up immediately following such qualified acquisition of 4.00 to 1.00 for four quarters, 3.75 to 1.00 for two quarters thereafter, and returning to 3.50 to 1.00 thereafter.
The interest rate per annum on the 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement is based on the LIBOR rate of the currency we borrow in, plus a margin of 1.1%, with applicable benchmark replacement rates for the currencies available when LIBOR is phased out as a result of the impending reference rate reform. There is a 0.15% fee per annum applicable to the commitments under the 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement. The margin and fees are subject to adjustment should the Company’s credit ratings change.

POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company terminated its U.S. qualified pension plan by purchasing a group annuity contract from MassMutual Life Insurance Company (MassMutual), which fully assumed the responsibility for paying and administering pension benefits to approximately five thousand plan participants and their beneficiaries. In connection with the plan termination, the Company settled all future obligations under the plan by providing lump sum payments to eligible participants who elected to receive them, and by transferring the remaining projected benefit obligation to the insurance company. The termination was initially funded with plan assets of approximately $320 and cash of $8.4. During the second quarter of 2021, the funding was finalized, resulting in income of $3.4 presented within the interest and non-operating (income) expenses line in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The following table provides the components of net periodic benefit cost for pension plans and other employee-related benefit plans for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020.

We made contributions to our global postretirement plans of $5.5 and $4.2 during the six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, respectively. We expect to make contributions of approximately $7 to $11 during the remainder of 2021, principally related to our other employee-related benefit plans.
Amortization from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings related to prior service benefit and net actuarial loss was $0.0 and $0.9, and $0.0 and $1.8, net of tax, during the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, respectively. No other reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings were recognized during any of the presented periods.

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 and six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020.
Three Months EndedSix Months Ended

Liability-based awards0.2 0.5 1.1 (0.1)
Total share-based compensation expense$4.4 $3.8 $8.5 $5.7 
The change in share-based compensation expense for equity-based awards was primarily driven by the likelihood of achieving certain performance targets. The change in share-based compensation expense for liability-based awards is driven by the change in ITT’s stock price. At July 3, 2021, there was $28.3 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 1.9 years. Additionally, unrecognized compensation cost related to liability-based awards was $2.0, which is expected to be recognized ratably over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years.
Year-to-Date 2021 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 six months ended July 3, 2021, we granted the following LTIP awards as provided in the table below:
# of Awards GrantedWeighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share

During the six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, a nominal amount of non-qualified stock options were exercised resulting in proceeds of $0.5 and $0.1, respectively. During the six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, RSUs of 0.1 and 0.2, respectively, vested and were issued. During the six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, PSUs of 0.2 that vested on December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, were issued.
NOTE 17
CAPITAL STOCK
On October 27, 2006, our Board of Directors approved a three-year, $1,000 share repurchase program (the 2006 Plan), which it modified in 2008 to make the term indefinite. On October 30, 2019, the Board of Directors approved a new indefinite term $500 share repurchase program (the 2019 Plan). During the first quarter of 2020, we completed the 2006 Plan and commenced repurchases under the 2019 Plan. During the six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, we repurchased and retired 0.6 and 1.7 shares of common stock for $50.0 and $73.2, respectively, under these programs, including 1.4 shares and $61.9 in 2020, which fully exhausted the 2006 Plan.
Separate from the share repurchase program, the Company repurchased 0.1 and 0.2 shares during the six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, respectively, for an aggregate amount of $11.4 and $10.5, respectively, in settlement of employee tax withholding obligations due upon the vesting of RSUs and PSUs.

NOTE 19
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. Historically, these proceedings have alleged damages relating to asbestos and 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
Prior to the divestiture described below, former 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 purported asbestos exposure. These claims generally allege that certain products sold by these entities or their 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. ITT LLC and Goulds Pumps LLC are wholly owned subsidiaries of InTelCo Management LLC (InTelCo), a former subsidiary of ITT.
On June 30, 2021, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with Sapphire TopCo, Inc. (Buyer), a wholly owned subsidiary of Delticus HoldCo, L.P., which is a portfolio company of the private equity firm Warburg Pincus LLC. Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company transferred 100% of the equity interests of InTelCo to the Buyer, effective as of July 1, 2021, along with a cash contribution from the Company of $398. As InTelCo was the obligor for the Company's asbestos-related liabilities and policyholder of the related insurance assets through its subsidiaries ITT LLC and Goulds Pumps LLC, the rights and obligations related to these items transferred upon the sale. In addition, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer and InTelCo have indemnified the Company and its affiliates for asbestos-related liabilities and other product liabilities and the Company has indemnified InTelCo and its affiliates for all other historical liabilities of InTelCo. This indemnification is not subject to any cap or time limitation. In connection with the sale, the Company and its Board of Directors received a solvency opinion from an independent advisory firm that InTelCo was solvent and adequately capitalized after giving effect to the transaction.
Following the completion of the transfer, the Company no longer has any obligation with respect to pending and future asbestos claims. As such, InTelco has been deconsolidated from the financial results of the Company as we no longer maintain control of the entity. Therefore, all associated assets and liabilities are no longer reported on the consolidated balance sheet. The transaction resulted in a pre-tax gain of $88.8. Additionally, the Company recorded tax expense as a result of the reversal of previously recorded deferred tax assets of $116.9, resulting in an after-tax loss of $28.1 recorded in the second quarter of 2021.
The following is a summary of the impacts of the divestiture:
Cash and cash equivalents$(398.0)
Current asbestos-related assets(91.0)
Long-term asbestos-related assets(310.4)
Accrued liabilities91.2

Prior to the divestiture of the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities, the Company recognized an estimated asbestos liability for pending claims and claims expected to be filed in the future, including legal fees. In the third quarter of 2020, we extended the measurement period over which we estimate the asbestos liability to include pending claims and claims estimated to be filed through 2052, including legal fees, reflecting the full time period over which we expected claims to be filed against us. Previous estimates included pending claims and claims expected to be filed over the next 10 years. Additionally, prior to the divestiture of the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities, the Company recorded an asbestos-related asset composed of probable insurance recoveries. The table below summarizes the total net asbestos charges (benefits) for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020.

(b)In March 2020, we finalized a settlement agreement with a group of insurers to settle responsibility for claims under certain insurance policies for a lump sum payment of $66.4, resulting in a benefit of $52.5. During June 2020, we entered into a settlement agreement with an insurer accelerating payments previously included in a buyout agreement, resulting in a loss of $4.2.

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.

Environmental-related assets, including a Qualified Settlement Fund and estimated recoveries from insurance providers and other third parties, were $12.1 and $20.4 as of July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, respectively.
We are currently involved with 27 active environmental investigation and remediation sites. As of July 3, 2021, we have estimated the potential high-end liability range of environmental-related matters to be $91.8.
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.

NOTE 20
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
From time to time, the Company may use derivative financial instruments, primarily foreign currency forward and option contracts, to mitigate exposure from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as it pertains to receipts from customers, payments to suppliers and intercompany transactions; as well as from commodity price fluctuations. We record derivatives at their fair value as either an asset or liability. For derivatives not designated as hedges, adjustments to reflect changes in the fair value of our derivatives are included in earnings. For cash flow hedges that qualify and are designated for hedge accounting, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion is recognized immediately in earnings. As of July 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020, no derivatives were designated as hedges. Derivative contracts involve the risk of non-performance by the counterparty. The fair value of our foreign currency contracts are determined using the net position of the contracts and the applicable spot rates and forward rates as of the reporting date.
As of July 3, 2021, the U.S. dollar equivalent notional value of outstanding foreign currency forward and option contracts, which are denominated in euros, was $100.5 and the fair value was $2.2, recorded within other current assets. There were no derivative contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2020. During the three and six months ended July 3, 2021, we recognized losses related to foreign currency derivatives not designated as hedges of $0.8 and $2.2, respectively, within general and administrative expenses. During the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, we recognized a gain of $0.3 and a loss of $3.8, respectively.
From time to time, we enter into call option contracts to mitigate exposure to commodity price fluctuations. As of July 3, 2021, call option contracts were nominal. There were no call option contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2020.
We utilize market approaches to estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by discounting anticipated future cash flows derived from the derivative’s contractual terms and observable foreign exchange rates. The fair values of the derivatives summarized above are determined based on Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.

COVID-19 Update:
The Company continues to respond to and recover from the challenges stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, including managing significant market headwinds, supply chain disruptions and reduced availability of skilled labor. We are continuing to actively monitor the situation, including the current rise of the COVID-19 Delta variant, to assess the impact on our businesses and operations. In addition, we continue to work closely with our suppliers to minimize disruptions within our supply chain and to continue to deliver high quality products to our customers.
Future impacts of COVID-19 on our business and financials remain uncertain and will be dependent on the severity of a resurgence of COVID-19 or variant strains of the virus, including the Delta variant, the effectiveness of vaccines and people’s attitudes towards receiving them, and the overall duration of the pandemic. See Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of our 2020 Annual Report, for an additional discussion of risk related to COVID-19.

Executive Summary
During the second quarter of 2021, we grew our revenue and expanded our margins across all three segments. The following table provides a summary of key performance indicators for the second quarter of 2021 as compared to the second quarter of 2020.

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 definitions and reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP metrics.
Our second quarter 2021 results include:
Revenue of $691.6 increased $176.9, including favorable foreign exchange of $25.2. Organic revenue improved 29.5% primarily as a result of strong top-line growth from our Motion Technologies segment, which significantly outperformed the global automotive market. We also saw top line growth from our Industrial Process business driven by pump projects and our CCT business due to strength in connector sales.
Segment operating income was $114.1, an increase of $76.8 over the prior year primarily driven by benefits from higher sales volume and prior year restructuring costs related to the 2020 Global Restructuring Plan. In addition, we realized benefits from net productivity and prior year cost actions. These items were partially offset by prior year actions to reduce discretionary spending, higher raw materials costs, and strategic growth investments.
Income from continuing operations of $0.45 per diluted share decreased $0.08 versus last year, as higher segment operating income was more than offset by a $28.1 loss on divestiture of asbestos-related assets and liabilities during the quarter, a prior year income tax benefit of $28.1, and an increase in corporate and environmental costs of $10.5. Adjusted income from continuing operations, which excludes the impact from the sale of asbestos, was $0.94 per diluted share, an improvement of $0.37.
In terms of capital deployment, during the second quarter of 2021 we paid $398.0 to fund the divestiture of the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities. This transaction, along with our successful U.S. pension plan termination executed in October 2020, positions us favorably for future growth and capital flexibility. In addition, we paid dividends of $19.0, which represents a 30% increase as compared to the second quarter of 2020.

MT revenue for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 increased $144.3 and $215.5, respectively. Excluding the impact of favorable foreign currency translation of $17.5 and $37.8 for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021, organic revenue increased $126.8 and $177.7, respectively. Sales from our Friction
26


business grew 83% and 43%, respectively, during the three and six month periods driven by a strong automotive recovery and significant outperformance versus global automotive production rates. Wolverine sales improved 58% and 29%, respectively, during the three and six month periods due to growth in sealings and OE shims. KONI & Axtone sales increased 4% and 5%, respectively, during the three and six month periods, primarily due to strength in automotive, partially offset by a decline in rail.
The automotive industry is currently experiencing a global semiconductor supply shortage. This shortage has created supply chain disruptions for our automotive OEM customers, resulting in temporary declines in production. As a result, demand for our OEM brake pads and parts may be adversely affected until the shortage is resolved. While this shortage has had and may continue to have a negative impact on revenue, we continue to significantly outperform global automotive production rates which has resulted in our ability to grow revenue versus prior year and 2019.
Industrial Process (IP)
IP revenue increased $20.6 for the three months ended July 3, 2021, and decreased $4.4 for the six months ended July 3, 2021. Both periods included favorable foreign currency translation impacts of $5.8 and $8.6, respectively. Organic revenue increased by $14.8 during the three month period, primarily driven by growth in pump projects of 52% due to strength in the oil and gas, chemical, and general industrial markets. This was partially offset by a decline in service revenue.
Organic revenue for the six month period decreased by $13.0, primarily driven by declines in our short-cycle business of 8% due to decreases in service revenue and baseline pumps. This decline was partially offset by growth in pump projects of 18%.
The level of order and shipment activity at IP can vary significantly from period to period due to pump projects which are highly engineered, customized to customer needs, and have longer lead times. Total orders during the six months ended July 3, 2021 were $446.7, an increase of 6.1% as compared to the prior year period. Backlog as of July 3, 2021 was $383.9, an increase of $16.5, or 4.5%, as compared to December 31, 2020. Our backlog represents firm orders that have been received, acknowledged, and entered into our production systems.
Connect & Control Technologies (CCT)
CCT revenue for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 increased $11.6 and $0.2, respectively, which included favorable foreign currency translation of $1.8 and $3.8, respectively. Organic revenue increased $9.8 during the three month period primarily driven by increases in connector sales of 17%, with particular strength in the industrial market. This was partially offset by declines in the aerospace and defense market of 2% for the quarter.
Organic revenue decreased $3.6 during the six month period primarily driven by declines in the aerospace and defense market of 16% due to continued challenges in the commercial aerospace market resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. This was partially offset by a 19% increase in connector sales within the industrial market. Recently, there has been an increase in commercial air travel and production levels by OEMs; however, due to high levels of OEM inventory, we do not expect to see a significant improvement in sales until early 2022.

GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit for the three months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020 was $224.6 and $163.6, respectively, reflecting a gross margin of 32.5% and 31.8%, respectively. Gross profit for the six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020 was $453.6 and $373.0, respectively, reflecting a gross margin of 32.6% and 31.7%, respectively. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by higher sales volume and net productivity savings, including the benefit of cost actions executed in 2020. These items were partially offset by an increase in raw material prices, primarily driven by the supply of steel, copper, and tin.     
Since 2020, the cost of raw materials, including commodities such as steel, used in our production processes has increased. The rising prices are mainly a result of increased demand fueled by economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic as well as lower supply since global production capacity was cut in 2020. The impact of higher commodity prices on our financial results during the second quarter of 2021 was partially mitigated by fixed-price supply contracts with suppliers. The expiration of these fixed-price contracts, potential continued raw materials inflation, and supply constraints are expected to have an increasingly unfavorable impact on our second half financial results. We expect to be able to offset some of this impact through price increases and net productivity savings.
The manufacturing industry is also currently experiencing a skilled labor shortage. This shortage has created difficulties for the Company in meeting customer demand and in managing the labor costs of our factory workers. Accordingly, our revenue, gross profit, and operating expenses at each of our businesses may be negatively impacted if we are unable to timely fulfill our customer orders; or if our labor costs, including costs related to attracting and retaining skilled workers, increase substantially in order to meet our customer demand. At this time, we do not expect this shortage to have a material impact on our financial results.

General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 increased $15.6 and $10.6, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher incentive-based compensation as well as prior year actions taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Prior year actions included a temporary reduction in executive compensation and suspension of select 401(k) benefits for certain U.S. employees that have since been reinstated. Last year, we also benefited from higher employee retention credits for the three and six month periods, in connection with the 2020 CARES Act. In addition, environmental costs in the current year were higher by $5.3 and $5.0, respectively, primarily due to prior year insurance-related recoveries. The increase was partially offset by a decline in bad debt expense.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $2.6 for the three months ended July 3, 2021 primarily driven by prior year benefits from discretionary spending reductions and temporary personnel cost actions taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Sales and marketing expenses decreased $2.3 for the six months ended July 3, 2021 reflecting net year-to-date savings from our cost actions initiated during the second quarter of 2020.
28


Research and development expenses for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 increased $4.3 and $5.9, respectively, due to our continued focus on strategic investments to drive future growth.
Asbestos-related matters resulted in a net benefit of $76.8 and $74.4 for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021, respectively, due to the recognition of a pre-tax gain of $88.8 from the divestiture of the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities. Asbestos-related matters for the six months ended June 27, 2020 benefited from a $52.5 insurance settlement gain. See Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information.
Restructuring costs decreased $27.8 and $27.3, respectively, during the three and six months ended July 3, 2021. Restructuring costs recorded during the prior year were primarily related to cost actions taken as part of our 2020 Global Restructuring Plan, which is an organizational-wide restructuring plan to reduce the overall cost structure of the Company in response to a reduction in demand from the COVID-19 pandemic. See Note 5, Restructuring Actions, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information.
Asset impairment charges for the six months ended June 27, 2020 were related to a business within IP that primarily serves the global upstream oil and gas market. See Note 11, Plant, Property and Equipment, net, and Note 12, Goodwill and Other intangible assets, net, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information.

MT operating income for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 increased $54.3 and $77.2, respectively, primarily driven by higher sales volume of $52.9 and $76.4 and prior year restructuring costs of $14.0 related to the 2020 Global Restructuring Plan. In addition, we benefited from net productivity and prior year cost actions, along with favorable foreign exchange of $2.7 and $6.1. Operating income growth was partially offset by unfavorable raw material costs and strategic growth investments.
IP operating income for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 increased $13.0 and $35.1, respectively, driven by higher prior year restructuring costs related to the 2020 Global Restructuring Plan. In addition, we benefited from net productivity, savings from prior year cost actions, and a decline in bad debt expense. Second quarter volume benefits were offset by unfavorable product mix due to higher pump project sales. The prior year six month period also includes an asset impairment expense of $16.3 related to a business that mainly serves the global upstream oil and gas market.
CCT operating income for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 increased $9.5 and $5.4, respectively, driven by prior year restructuring costs related to the 2020 Global Restructuring Plan, as well as net productivity and savings from prior year cost actions.
29


Other corporate costs for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 increased $10.5 and $7.7, respectively. The increase for both periods was primarily driven by unfavorable environmental-related costs of $5.3 and $5.0, respectively, associated with prior year insurance-related recoveries, higher personnel costs driven by performance-based incentive compensation, as well as prior year actions taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Prior year actions included a temporary reduction in executive compensation and suspension of select 401(k) benefits that have since been reinstated. These items were partially offset by a decrease in restructuring expense.

The change for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 was primarily due to a $3.4 gain from the final pricing adjustment related to the termination of our U.S. qualified pension plan. We also benefited from a decline in postretirement-related costs mainly resulting from the plan termination.

Effective tax rate78.6 %(153.6)%57.3 %(2.7)%
The higher effective tax rate for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 resulted from the Company recording tax expense on the reversal of previously recorded deferred tax assets of $116.9 resulting from the Company’s divestiture of the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities (see Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, for further information). In addition, the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 was lower due to tax benefits of $26.7 resulting from an internal restructuring in Europe. This reorganization resulted in a refined projection of future earnings, which will result in the realization of a portion of our deferred tax assets.
See Note 6, Income Taxes, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information.
LIQUIDITY
Funding and Liquidity Strategy
We monitor our funding needs and execute strategies to meet overall liquidity requirements, including the management of our capital structure, on both a short- and long-term basis. Significant factors that affect our overall management of liquidity include our cash flow from operations, credit ratings, the availability of commercial paper, access to bank lines of credit, term loans, 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. We expect to have enough liquidity to fund operations for at least the next 12 months and beyond.
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. We plan to continue to transfer cash between certain international subsidiaries and the U.S. when it is cost effective to do so. We will also continue to support growth and expansion in markets outside of the U.S. through the development of products, increased capital spending, and potential foreign acquisitions. During the six months ended July 3, 2021, we had net cash distributions from foreign countries to the U.S. of $44.3. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we had net
30


cash distributions from foreign countries to the U.S. of $498.2. The timing and amount of any additional future distributions remains under evaluation based on our jurisdictional cash needs.
The Company also continues to evaluate the various global governmental programs instituted in response to COVID-19, including the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA). ARPA builds upon many of the measures in the CARES Act from March 2020 and the Consolidated Appropriations Act from December 2020. ARPA and various global programs in the jurisdictions in which we operate generally provide for employee retention credits, workforce incentives, and incentive financing programs backed by governmental agencies. During the three and six months ended July 3, 2021, the Company recognized a benefit of $1.7 and $4.1 from the employee retention credit, and recognized a benefit of $7.2 during the second quarter of 2020. The benefit was recorded in operating income and related to the employer portion of payroll taxes. Certain non-U.S. jurisdictions have enacted similar stimulus measures. As of July 3, 2021, we have not incurred any borrowings under governmental loan programs. We continue to monitor any effects that may result from the ARPA and 2020 CARES Act or other similar legislation globally.
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 second quarter of 2021, we declared a dividend of $0.22 per share for shareholders of record on June 21, 2021, which was a 30% increase from the quarterly dividends declared in 2020. Dividend payments for the six months ended July 3, 2021 amounted to $38.1.
During the first quarter of 2020, we completed our $1,000 share repurchase plan approved in 2006 and commenced repurchases under the $500 share repurchase plan approved in 2019. During the six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, we repurchased and retired 0.6 and 1.7 shares of common stock for $50.0 and $73.2, respectively, under our share repurchase plans. Separate from our share repurchase plans, the Company repurchased 0.1 and 0.2 shares during the six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, respectively, for an aggregate price of $11.4 and $10.5, respectively, in settlement of employee tax withholding obligations due upon the vesting of RSUs and PSUs. All repurchased shares are canceled immediately following the repurchases.
Commercial Paper
When available and economically feasible, we have accessed the commercial paper market through programs in place in the U.S. and Europe to supplement cash flows generated internally and to provide additional short-term funding. Commercial paper outstanding of $197.4 as of July 3, 2021 was issued through both the Company’s U.S. and Euro programs. Commercial paper outstanding under the U.S. program was $150.0, with a weighted average interest rate of 0.21%, and was used to partially fund the divestiture of the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities (see Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies). Commercial paper outstanding under the Euro program was $47.4, with a weighted average negative interest rate of (0.44)%. Commercial paper outstanding of $104.3 as of December 31, 2020 was issued entirely under the Company’s Euro program and had a weighted average negative interest rate of (0.06)%. All outstanding commercial paper for both periods had maturity terms less than three months from the date of issuance.
31


Revolving Credit Agreements
We had maintained access to a $500 competitive advance and revolving credit facility under agreement with a consortium of third party lenders (the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement). As of July 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had no outstanding borrowings under the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement. In August 2021, we entered into a new Revolving Credit Agreement with a syndicate of third party lenders including Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement) to replace the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement, which was to mature in November 2022 and was terminated on August 5, 2021. The 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement matures in August 2026 and provides for an aggregate principal amount of up to $700 of (i) revolving extensions of credit (the revolving loans) outstanding at any time, and (ii) letters of credit for a face amount up to $100 at any time outstanding. Subject to certain conditions, we are permitted to terminate permanently the total commitments and reduce commitments by a minimum aggregate amount of $10 or any whole multiple of $1 in excess thereof. Borrowings under the credit facility are available in U.S. dollars, Euros, British pound sterling or any other currency that may be requested by us, subject to the approval of the administrative agent and each lender. We are permitted to request that lenders increase the commitments under the facility by up to $350 for a maximum aggregate principal amount of $1,050; however, this is subject to certain conditions and therefore may not be available to us.
On April 29, 2020, we entered into two 364-day revolving credit agreements totaling $200 (the Incremental Revolving Credit Agreements) which provided the Company with additional liquidity in excess of the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement. The Incremental Revolving Credit Agreements expired in April 2021 and we did not renew the agreements.
See Note 14, Debt, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information.
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 or used in operating, investing, and financing activities from continuing operations, as well as net cash from discontinued operations, for the six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020.

Net cash (used in) provided by discontinued operations(0.2)0.1 
Net change in cash and cash equivalents$(280.8)$207.1 
Operating Activities
The decrease in net cash from operating activities of $434.7 was primarily due to cash paid of $398.0 during the second quarter of 2021 to fund the divestiture of the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities and higher income tax payments of $31.6. In addition, we made investments in working capital to support sales growth. These items were partially offset by an increase in segment operating income.
Investing Activities
The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was driven by a prior year payment of $4.7 related to our 2019 acquisition of Rheinhütte. Capital expenditures were $35.1 and $34.3 for the six months ended 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Financing Activities
The decrease in net cash from financing activities of $46.3 was primarily driven by prior year revolver borrowings, net of repayments, of $89.6 and an increase in dividends paid of $23.5. These items were partially offset by an increase in net commercial paper borrowings of $44.4 and a decline in repurchases of ITT common stock of $22.3.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS AND NON-GAAP MEASURES
Management reviews a variety of key performance indicators including revenue, segment operating income and margins, and earnings per share, some of which are calculated other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (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. Some of these metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for measures determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following non-GAAP measures to be key performance indicators. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
“Organic revenue” is defined as revenue, excluding the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations and acquisitions. 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 provides useful information to investors by facilitating comparisons of our revenue performance with prior and future periods and to our peers.

“Adjusted operating income” and “Adjusted segment operating income” are defined as operating income, adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, asbestos-related impacts, restructuring, certain asset impairment charges, certain acquisition-related impacts, and unusual or infrequent operating items. Special items represent charges or credits that impact current results, which management views as unrelated to the Company’s ongoing operations and performance. “Adjusted operating margin” and “Adjusted segment operating margin” are defined as adjusted operating income or adjusted segment operating income divided by revenue. We believe that these financial measures are 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.

“Adjusted income from continuing operations” is defined as income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, asbestos-related impacts, restructuring, certain asset impairment charges, pension termination and settlement impacts, certain acquisition-related impacts, income tax settlements or adjustments, and unusual or infrequent items. Special items represent 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. The after-tax basis of each special item is determined using the jurisdictional tax rate of where the expense or benefit occurred. “Adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share” (Adjusted EPS) is defined as adjusted income from continuing operations divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for information on recent accounting pronouncements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of the Company’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. The Company 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 2020 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 material changes concerning the Company’s critical accounting estimates as described in our 2020 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 2020 Annual Report. See Note 20, Derivative Financial Instruments, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for information on the Company’s use of derivative financial instruments to mitigate exposure from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and commodity price fluctuations.
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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (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 were effective.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Report that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.

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 business. For a discussion of legal proceedings, see Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.
As described in Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, on July 1, 2021, we completed the divestiture of InTelCo Management LLC (InTelCo), a former subsidiary which held our asbestos-related assets and liabilities. In connection with the divestiture, we contributed approximately $398 to InTelCo. Pursuant to the purchase agreement, the buyer and InTelCo agreed to indemnify the Company and its affiliates for all asbestos-related and other product liabilities, while the Company agreed to indemnify InTelCo and its affiliates for all other historical liabilities of InTelCo, which includes any losses with respect to release of, or exposure to, hazardous materials. These indemnification obligations are not subject to any cap or time limitation. As a result of the divestiture, we believe we have resolved our involvement in material legal proceedings related to asbestos exposure.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Reference is made to the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of our 2020 Annual Report, which are incorporated by reference herein. There have been no material changes with regard to the risk factors disclosed in such report, other than our risk factor regarding exposure to legacy asbestos claims and related assets, liabilities and cash flows that no longer applies to the Company after the divestiture of the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities as discussed in Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Purchases of equity securities by the issuer and affiliated purchasers
On October 30, 2019, the Board of Directors approved an indefinite term $500 share repurchase program (the 2019 Plan). We intend to utilize the 2019 Plan in a manner that is consistent with our capital allocation process, which has centered on those investments necessary to grow our businesses organically and through acquisition, while also providing cash returns to shareholders.
We did not make any share repurchases of our common stock during the quarter ended July 3, 2021. We routinely receive shares of our common stock as payment for the withholding of taxes due on vested restricted stock awards from stock-based compensation program participants. As of July 3, 2021, approximately $438.7 remains available under the 2019 Plan.

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 by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (the General License). 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 €2.2 million euros and €1.5 million euros, respectively. Prior to its acquisition by ITT, Bornemann issued a performance bond to its Iranian customer in the amount of €1.3 million euros (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 July 3, 2021, however, Bornemann did pay fees of approximately €5 thousand euros during the six months ended July 3, 2021 and approximately €11 thousand euros during 2020 to the German financial institution which is maintaining the Bond.
