Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1: Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business— John Bean Technologies Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (“JBT Corporation” or “we”) provide global technology solutions for the food processing and air transportation industries. We design, manufacture, test and service technologically sophisticated systems and products for customers through our JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech segments. We have manufacturing operations worldwide and are strategically located to facilitate delivery of our products and services to our customers.

Basis of Presentation—The preceding (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto (the “statements”), of JBT Corporation have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States can be condensed or omitted. Therefore, these statements should be read in conjunction with our audited annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

In the opinion of management, the statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition and operating results as of and for the periods presented. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these statements may not be representative of those for the full year or any future period.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements— On January 1, 2010, we adopted the updated guidance related to revenue recognition for arrangements with multiple deliverables, which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements and provides guidance on whether multiple deliverables exist, how to separate deliverables and how to measure and allocate arrangement consideration between the identified units of accounting. We elected to adopt the updated guidance on a prospective basis for applicable transactions originating or modified after December 31, 2009. The adoption of the updated guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

On January 1, 2010, we adopted the updated guidance related to fair value measurements and disclosures, which requires a reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and to describe the reasons for the transfers. In addition, in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3, a reporting entity should disclose separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than one net number). The updated guidance also requires that an entity should provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities and disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for interim or annual financial reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Therefore, we have not yet adopted the guidance with respect to the roll forward activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. We have updated our disclosures to comply with the updated guidance; however, we do not have any fair value measurements that require the use of unobservable inputs and adoption of the updated guidance did not have an impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

On April 1, 2009, we adopted the updated guidance related to subsequent events, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The updated guidance initially required the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date – that is, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. However, in February 2010, the guidance was amended to remove the requirement to disclose the date through which subsequent events were evaluated. Adoption of the updated guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

Note 4: Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense was $1.9 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $3.5 million and $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

In the six months ended June 30, 2010, we granted the following restricted stock awards:

				Weighted Average
	Shares			Grant Date Fair Value
Time-based		273,213
Performance-based		91,371	*
Granted during the six months ended June 30, 2010		364,584		$	16.75

* Assumes target payout

We granted time-based restricted stock awards, most of which vest after three years. The fair value of these time-based awards was determined using the market value of our common stock on the grant date. Compensation cost is recognized over the lesser of the stated vesting period or the period until the employee reaches age 62, the retirement eligible age under the plan. We also granted restricted stock awards with performance-based conditions. The vesting period for these awards is three years.

For current year performance-based awards, actual payouts may vary from zero to 182,742 shares and will be dependent upon our performance relative to prior year with respect to earnings growth and return on investment for the year ending December 31, 2010. Compensation cost is measured based on the current expected outcome of the performance conditions and may be adjusted until the performance period ends.

Note 5: Stockholders’ Equity

During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009, 0.5 million shares and 0.1 million shares, respectively, were issued in connection with our stock-based compensation plan.

Comprehensive income consisted of the following:

	Three Months Ended					Six Months Ended

Comprehensive income	$	2.0		$	20.6	$	2.7		$	22.4

Note 6: Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS from continuing operations for the respective periods and our basic and dilutive shares outstanding:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

Note 7: Derivative Financial Instruments and Risk Management

Derivative financial instruments— We hold derivative financial instruments for the purpose of hedging foreign currency risks and interest rate risks of certain identifiable and anticipated transactions.

We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries throughout the world and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our major foreign currency exposures involve the markets in Western Europe, South America and Asia. The purpose of our foreign currency hedging activities is to manage the economic impact of exchange rate volatility associated with anticipated foreign currency purchases and sales made in the normal course of business. We primarily utilize forward exchange contracts with maturities of less than 2 years. As of June 30, 2010, we held forward exchange contracts with an aggregate notional value of $284.2 million. Many of our sales and purchase contracts are written contemplating this risk and therefore contain embedded derivatives, which we take into consideration as part of our risk management policy.

Additionally, we have entered into an interest rate swap to hedge a portion of our variable rate debt. The interest rate swap effectively fixes the annual interest rate on a portion of our variable rate debt at 3.675% plus a margin dependent on our leverage ratio. For the periods prior to January 30, 2010, the interest rate swap covered $50 million of our borrowings and for the period from January 30, 2010 to January 31, 2011, the interest rate swap covers $25 million of our borrowings.

Our policy is to hold derivatives only for the purpose of hedging risks and not for trading purposes where the objective is solely to generate profit. Generally, we enter into hedging relationships such that changes in the fair values or cash flows of items and transactions being hedged are expected to be offset by corresponding changes in the fair value of the derivatives.

With the exception of the interest rate swap and certain foreign exchange derivatives entered into prior to our spin-off in July 2008, we do not apply hedge accounting. All derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value and classified based on the instrument’s maturity date. We do not offset fair value amounts for derivative instruments held with the same counterparty. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are recorded in current earnings or deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the underlying transactions are recognized in earnings, depending on the type of hedging transaction and whether a derivative is designated as, and is effective as, a hedge. Cash flows from derivatives are classified as cash flows from operating activities.

The following table presents the fair value of derivative instruments included within the condensed consolidated balance sheets:

	As of June 30, 2010				As of December 31, 2009
(In millions)	Asset Derivatives (1)		Liability Derivatives (2)		Asset Derivatives (1)		Liability Derivatives (2)
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments:

(1)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, we recorded in other income, net an immaterial amount of ineffectiveness from cash flow hedges.

As of June 30, 2010, we do not expect to reclassify a significant amount of accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings within the next 12 months. All forecasted transactions are expected to occur by 2013.

The following table presents the location and gain (loss) on derivatives not designated as hedging instruments recognized in the consolidated statements of income:

Refer to Note 8: Fair Value of Financial Instruments for a description of how the above financial instruments are valued.

Credit risk — By their nature, financial instruments involve risk including credit risk for non-performance by counterparties. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk primarily consist of trade receivables and derivative contracts. We manage the credit risk on financial instruments by transacting only with financially secure counterparties, requiring credit approvals and credit limits, and monitoring counterparties’ financial condition. Our maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty is limited to the amount drawn and outstanding on the financial instrument. Allowances for losses are established based on collectability assessments.

Note 8: Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:

•

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

•

Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

•

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

	As of June 30, 2010								As of December 31, 2009
(In millions)	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets:
Investments	$	8.6	$	8.6	$	-	$	-	$	10.9	$	10.9	$	-	$	-
Derivatives		6.9		-		6.9		-		5.5		-		5.5		-
Total assets	$	15.5	$	8.6	$	6.9	$	-	$	16.4	$	10.9	$	5.5	$	-
Liabilities:
Derivatives	$	9.0	$	-	$	9.0	$	-	$	8.9	$	-	$	8.9	$	-

Investments are classified as trading securities and are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Investments are included in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009, we recorded an unrealized gain on investments of $0.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively, in other (expense) income, net in the consolidated statements of income. We use the income approach as the valuation technique to measure the fair value of derivative instruments on a recurring basis. This approach calculates the present value of the future cash flow by measuring the change from the derivative contract rate and the published market indicative currency and interest rates, multiplied by the contract notional values, and includes a factor of credit risk.

In addition to the methods and assumptions we use for the financial instruments recorded at fair value as discussed above, we use the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value for our other financial instruments that are not marked to market on a recurring basis. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and accounts payables, as well as amounts included in other current assets and other current liabilities that meet the definition of financial instruments, approximate fair values because of their short-term maturities.

The carrying values and the estimated fair values of our debt financial instruments are summarized in the table below:

	As of June 30, 2010				As of December 31, 2009
(In millions)	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value
6.66% senior unsecured notes due July 31, 2015	$	75.0	$	84.7	$	75.0	$	83.8
Revolving credit facility, due 2013		52.7		52.7		56.8		56.8
4.5% Brazilian Real loan due December 31, 2012		2.9		2.5		-		-

There is no active or observable market for our senior unsecured notes or our Brazilian Real loan. Therefore, the estimated fair values of the notes and the loan are based on discounted cash flows using current interest rates available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The estimates of the all-in interest rates for discounting the notes and the loan are based on a broker quote for notes and a loan with similar terms. We do not have a rate adjustment for risk profile changes, covenant issues or credit rating changes, therefore the broker quote is deemed to be the closest approximation of current market rates. The carrying value of the remaining borrowings approximates their fair value due to their variable interest rates.

Note 9: Commitments and Contingencies

We are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the resolution of the proceedings that we are involved in, either individually or taken as a whole will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

In connection with our spin-off from FMC Technologies in 2008, we entered into a separation and distribution agreement with FMC Technologies (the “Separation and Distribution Agreement”). Under the Separation and Distribution Agreement, we have assumed liabilities related to specified legal proceedings arising from our business prior to the spin-off. As a result, although FMC Technologies will in many cases remain the named defendant, we will manage the litigation and indemnify FMC Technologies for costs, expenses and judgments arising from this existing litigation. We do not believe that any existing litigation we have assumed will have a material effect on our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. However, we are in the process of reviewing a claim related to a discontinued operation for which we may or may not be liable. If it is determined that we are liable for this claim, we may incur a loss of up to $0.9 million.

Guarantees and Product Warranties—In the ordinary course of business with customers, vendors and others, we issue standby letters of credit, performance bonds, surety bonds and other guarantees. These financial instruments, which totaled approximately $100.3 million at June 30, 2010, represent guarantees of our future performance. We also have provided approximately $14.5 million of bank guarantees and letters of credit to secure a portion of our existing financial obligations. The majority of these financial instruments expire within two years; we expect to replace them through the issuance of new or the extension of existing letters of credit and surety bonds.

We provide warranties of various lengths and terms to certain of our customers based on standard terms and conditions and negotiated agreements. We provide for the estimated cost of warranties at the time revenue is recognized for products where reliable, historical experience of warranty claims and costs exists. We also provide warranty liability when additional specific obligations are identified. The obligation reflected in other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets is based on historical experience by product and considers failure rates and the related costs in correcting a product failure. Warranty cost and accrual information is as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors

John Bean Technologies Corporation:

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of John Bean Technologies Corporation and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010, the related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of John Bean Technologies Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 4, 2010, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

	•		in-container processing solutions for fruits, vegetables, soups, sauces, dairy and pet food products as well as ready-to-eat meals in a wide variety of modern packages; and
	•		fruit processing solutions that extract, concentrate and aseptically process citrus, tomato and other fruits.

JBT AeroTech markets its solutions and services to domestic and international airport authorities, passenger airlines, air freight and ground handling companies, the United States and certain international defense departments and the material handling industry. The product offerings of our JBT AeroTech businesses include:

	•		ground support equipment for cargo loading, aircraft deicing and aircraft towing;

We have developed close working relationships with our customers, which we believe enhances our competitive advantage, strengthens our market positions and improves our results. We serve customers from around the world. During the first six months of 2010, a significant portion of our total sales were to locations outside of the United States. We evaluate international markets and pursue opportunities that fit our technological capabilities and strategies.

The food processing and air transportation industries in which we operate are susceptible to significant changes in the strength of the global or regional economies and the economic health of companies who make capital commitments for our products and services. We focus on economic and industry-specific drivers and key risk factors affecting each of our businesses as we formulate our strategic plans and make decisions related to allocating capital and human resources. These factors include risks associated with the global economic outlook, product obsolescence, and the competitive environment.

As part of our core mission of being a leading supplier of customized solutions to the food processing and air transportation industries, we address these business related risks through our focus on the four critical strategies of extending our technology leadership; leveraging our installed base; capturing international growth opportunities; and growing through acquisitions.

As we evaluate our operating results, we consider performance indicators like segment revenue and operating profit in addition to the level of inbound orders and order backlog.

Our total revenue of $208.3 million in the second quarter of 2010 represented a decrease of $21.9 million compared to the same period in 2009. JBT FoodTech’s revenue decreased by $9.9 million while JBT AeroTech’s revenue decreased by $11.7 million. The decrease in JBT FoodTech’s revenue was driven primarily by lower revenue from large orders while the decrease in JBT AeroTech’s revenue was driven by lower sales of Halvorsen loaders and the lower level of order backlog at the end of 2009 due to the global recession. However, inbound orders received during the second quarter of 2010 in both of our business segments increased by $60.1 million compared to the same period in 2009. Refer to Inbound Orders and Order Backlog for further details.

Our cost of sales of $153.9 million in the second quarter of 2010 represented a decrease of $17.3 million compared to the same period in 2009, while gross profit (revenue less cost of sales) decreased by $4.6 million. The decrease in gross profit was driven by lower sales volume, resulting in $5.7 million of lower gross profit, which was partially offset by the absence of restructuring charges that were recorded in the second quarter of 2009.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.6 million lower in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 as a result of $1.1 million of lower costs related to our non-qualified deferred compensation plan, which are offset by a loss on investments in the non-qualified deferred compensation plan reported in other (expense) income, net, and lower selling and administrative costs due to savings from cost reduction initiatives implemented in 2009.

Other expense, net was $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2010 compared to other income, net of $0.6 million in the same period in 2009 as a result of a loss on investments in our non-qualified deferred compensation plan in 2010 compared to a gain in 2009.

Net interest expense was $0.3 million lower in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 as a result of a lower overall interest rate on our variable rate debt due to maturity of a $25 million interest rate swap on January 30, 2010.

Income tax expense in the second quarter of 2010 reflects an effective income tax rate of 34.3%, which is consistent with the same period in 2009.

JBT FoodTech

JBT FoodTech’s revenue of $135.6 million in the second quarter of 2010 represented a decrease of $9.9 million compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease in revenue was driven by the lack of comparable large orders, as revenue for the second quarter of 2009 included shipments of two large orders totaling $30.1 million. However, higher sales of freezing and chilling products and protein processing products in Latin America and Asia partially offset the decrease in revenue.

JBT FoodTech’s operating profit of $15.2 million in the second quarter of 2010 represented a decrease of $1.3 million compared to the same period in 2009. Lower sales volume resulted in a decrease in profit of $3.1 million. However, gross profit margins improved due to savings from cost reduction initiatives implemented in 2009, resulting in $1.7 million of higher profit.

JBT AeroTech

JBT AeroTech’s revenue of $72.0 million in the second quarter of 2010 represented a decrease of $11.7 million compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease in revenue was a result of lower sales of Halvorsen loaders due to completion of a U.S. Air Force order, resulting in $5.5 million of lower revenue, and the lower level of order backlog for JBT AeroTech’s other products at the end of 2009 due to the global recession, resulting in $5.1 million of lower revenue.

JBT AeroTech’s operating profit of $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2010 represented a decrease of $2.1 million compared to the same period in 2009. Lower sales volume resulted in a decrease in profit of $2.5 million. This decrease was partially offset by $1.2 million in lower costs resulting primarily from cost reduction initiatives implemented in 2009 and the absence of restructuring charges of $0.6 million recorded in the second quarter of 2009. Gross profit margins declined due to lower proportion of revenue from Halvorsen loaders and competitive pricing pressure in Airport Services, resulting in $1.4 million of lower profit.

Corporate Items

Corporate items of $6.7 million in the second quarter of 2010 represented a decrease of $1.0 million compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease was driven by lower residual costs associated with our retirement benefits program due to the freeze of our domestic defined benefit pension plan at the end of 2009.

Our total revenue of $377.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 represented a decrease of $21.9 million compared to the same period in 2009. JBT FoodTech’s revenue decreased by $3.3 million while JBT AeroTech’s revenue decreased by $17.9 million. The decrease in JBT FoodTech’s revenue was driven by lower revenue from large orders while the decrease in JBT AeroTech’s revenue was driven by the lower level of order backlog at the end of 2009 due to the global recession. However, inbound orders received during the six months ended June 30, 2010 in both of our business segments increased by $115.2 million compared to the same period in 2009. Refer to Inbound Orders and Order Backlog for further details.

Our cost of sales of $276.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 represented a decrease of $17.3 million compared to the same period in 2009, while gross profit (revenue less cost of sales) decreased by $4.6 million. The decrease in gross profit was driven by lower sales volume, resulting in $7.5 million of lower gross profit, a slight decrease in gross profit margins due to competitive pricing pressure, resulting in $1.4 million of lower gross profit, and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation, resulting in $1.0 million of lower gross profit. These decreases were partially offset by gains on foreign currency transactions, resulting in $2.2 million of higher gross profit, and the absence of restructuring charges of $3.1 million recorded in the first half of 2009.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.2 million lower in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 primarily as a result of lower costs related to our retirement benefits program due to the freeze of our domestic defined benefit pension plan at the end of 2009, and $1.2 million of lower selling and administrative costs due to savings from cost reduction initiatives implemented in 2009.

Other income, net was $0.7 million lower in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 primarily as a result of a loss on investments in our non-qualified deferred compensation plan in 2010 compared to a gain in 2009.

Net interest expense was $0.6 million lower in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 as a result of a lower overall interest rate on our variable rate debt due to maturity of a $25 million interest rate swap on January 30, 2010.

Income tax expense in the six months ended June 30, 2010 reflects an effective income tax rate of 34.3%, which is consistent with the same period in 2009.

JBT FoodTech

JBT FoodTech’s revenue of $237.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 represented a decrease of $3.3 million compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease in revenue was driven by the lack of comparable large orders, as revenue for the 2009 period included shipments of two large orders totaling $30.1 million. The decrease in revenue was partially offset by a $7.0 million favorable impact of foreign currency translation and higher sales of freezing and chilling products and protein processing products in Asia.

JBT FoodTech’s operating profit of $22.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 represented a decrease of $1.4 million compared to the same period in 2009. Lower sales volume resulted in a decrease in profit of $3.1 million, which was partially offset by the absence of restructuring charges of $1.4 million recorded in the first half of 2009.

JBT AeroTech

JBT AeroTech’s revenue of $139.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 represented a decrease of $17.9 million compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease in revenue was a result of the lower level of order backlog for all of JBT AeroTech’s products at the end of 2009 due to the global recession. Sales of ground support equipment decreased by $5.0 million and represented the largest product line decrease.

JBT AeroTech’s operating profit of $8.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 represented a decrease of $2.8 million compared to the same period in 2009. Lower sales volume resulted in a decrease in profit of $4.2 million. This decrease was partially offset by $2.2 million of lower costs resulting primarily from cost reduction initiatives implemented in 2009 and the absence of restructuring charges of $1.7 million recorded in the first half of 2009. Gross profit margins declined due to the lower proportion of revenue from Halvorsen loaders and competitive pricing pressure in Airport Services, resulting in $2.5 million of lower profit.

Corporate Items

Corporate items of $13.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 represented a decrease of $1.6 million compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease was driven by lower residual costs associated with our retirement benefits program due to the freeze of our domestic defined benefit pension plan at the end of 2009.

As of June 30, 2010, JBT FoodTech’s order backlog increased by $17.9 million since year-end 2009 due to higher demand for freezing and chilling products and protein processing products. Order activity has increased in all regions with notable increases in Western Europe and North America. JBT FoodTech’s order backlog decreased by $4.4 million since June 30, 2009 primarily due to shipments of several large orders in the second half of 2009.

As of June 30, 2010, JBT AeroTech’s order backlog increased by $90.0 million since year-end 2009 and by $66.7 million since June 30, 2009. Both increases were driven by large orders received in 2010 for gate equipment products and ground support equipment. However, the increase in order backlog from June 30, 2009 was partially offset by a decrease in order backlog for Halvorsen loaders due to completion of production of a U.S. Air Force order.

During 2009, we corrected an immaterial error in the calculation of our order backlog, which resulted in a reduction of $9.8 million in order backlog reported as of June 30, 2009.

Outlook

We anticipate continued improvement in the market conditions for our product lines in the remainder of 2010. Our full year effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 33% to 35%. We expect our 2010 diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $1.15 to $1.30. The lower end of the range assumes the economic recovery stalls while the upper end of the range assumes the pace of recovery continues to accelerate.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by operating activities and our credit facility. We believe our cash flows from operations and our credit facility will be sufficient to satisfy our future working capital, research and development activities, capital expenditures, pension contributions and other financing requirements. Our ability to generate positive cash flows from operations is dependent on general economic conditions, competitive pressures, and other business and risk factors.

Cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
(In millions)	2010			2009
Cash provided by operating activities	$	1.9		$	27.9
Cash required by investing activities		(5.8	)		(16.1	)
Cash required by financing activities		(1.6	)		(39.3	)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents		(0.3	)		1.0
Decrease in cash and cash equivalents	$	(5.8	)	$	(26.5	)

Cash flows provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $1.9 million, representing a $26.0 million decrease from the same period in 2009. The change in the cash flows is primarily attributable to changes in working capital as our working capital balances can vary significantly depending on the payment and delivery terms on key contracts. The change in working capital was driven primarily by a higher reduction in accounts receivable in the first half of 2009.

Cash flows required by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $5.8 million and $16.1 million, respectively, primarily consisting of amounts required to fund capital expenditures. Much of our spending supports the maintenance and upgrading of our installed base of leased equipment and facilities. During the 2009 period, we used $6.7 million to fund an acquisition.

Cash flows required by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $1.6 million and $39.3 million, respectively. During the 2010 period, our net borrowings increased by $1.0 million while we reduced our net borrowings by $36.1 million during the 2009 period.

Financing Arrangements

We have a $225 million revolving credit facility that expires on July 31, 2013. Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest, at our option, at LIBOR or an alternative base rate, which is the greater of JPMorgan Chase, N.A.’s Prime Rate or Federal Funds Rate plus 50 basis points, plus a margin dependent on our leverage ratio. We are required to make periodic interest payments on the borrowed amounts and pay an annual facility fee ranging from 17.5 to 35 basis points, depending on our leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2010, we had $52.7 million drawn on the credit facility, $28.9 million in letters of credit issued under the credit facility and $143.4 million of additional available funds.

We have an interest rate swap which effectively fixes the annual interest rate on a portion of our borrowings under the credit facility at 3.675% plus a margin dependent on our leverage ratio. For the periods prior to January 30, 2010, the interest rate swap covered $50 million of our borrowings and for the period from January 30, 2010 to January 31, 2011, the interest rate swap covers $25 million of our borrowings.

We have $75 million of 6.66% senior unsecured notes. The senior unsecured notes are due on July 31, 2015 and require us to make semiannual interest payments.

Additionally, in January 2010, our Brazilian subsidiary entered into a R$5.3 million ($2.9 million) loan. The loan bears interest of 4.5% and is due in December 2012.

Our credit agreement and notes include restrictive covenants that, if not met, could lead to a renegotiation of our credit lines, requirement to repay our borrowings and/or a significant increase in our cost of financing. At June 30, 2010, we were in compliance with all covenants of our contractual obligations as shown in the following table:

Debt Instrument / Covenant	Measurement	Result as of June 30, 2010
Revolving credit facility
Interest coverage ratio (1)	Not less than 3.5		10.0
Leverage ratio (2)	Not greater than 3.0		1.7
Capital expenditures (3)	Not greater than $33 million		$7.3 million
Dividends paid	Not greater than $20 million		$4.2 million
6.66% senior unsecured notes
Interest coverage ratio (1)	Not less than 2.75		10.0
Leverage ratio (2)	Not greater than 3.25		1.7

(1)

Interest coverage ratio is a comparison of the trailing twelve months Consolidated EBITDA, defined as net income plus interest expense plus income tax expense plus depreciation and amortization plus non-cash expenses and extraordinary, unusual and non-recurring items, to trailing twelve months interest expense.

(2)	Leverage ratio is a comparison of the total indebtedness, defined as total debt plus guarantees of indebtedness of others plus obligations under financial letters of credit issued against the credit facility, to the trailing twelve month Consolidated EBITDA, as defined above.

(3)	Capital expenditures are limited to $30 million plus 50 percent of the unutilized amount from prior year.

We expect to remain in compliance with all restrictive covenants in the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that continued or increased volatility in the global economic conditions will not impair our ability to meet our restrictive covenants, or the volatility in the capital and credit markets will not impair our ability to access these markets on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Outlook

We plan to meet our cash requirements in future periods with cash generated from operations and borrowings under our credit facilities. We estimate that we will contribute approximately $11 million in the remainder of 2010 to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans, primarily reflecting discretionary contributions to our U.S. qualified pension plan.

We continue to evaluate acquisitions in the normal course of business which we expect to fund with cash generated from operations or borrowings under our credit facility.
