PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts

As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Company", "Parker", "we" or "us" refer to Parker-Hannifin Corporation and its subsidiaries.

1. Management representation

In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of December 31, 2019, the results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 and cash flows for the six months then ended. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events that have occurred through the date these financial statements were issued. No subsequent events have occurred that required adjustment to these financial statements.

2. New accounting pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." ASU 2016-13 requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. We have not yet determined the effect that ASU 2016-13 will have on our financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to put most leases with terms greater than 12 months on their balance sheet by recognizing a liability to make lease payments and an asset representing their right to use the asset during the lease term. We adopted ASU 2016-02 on July 1, 2019 using the optional transition method and have not restated prior periods. We elected to use the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allows the carry forward of historical lease classification of existing leases. Upon adoption, we recorded a right-of-use asset and lease liability of approximately $126 million. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Statement of Income or Cash Flows.

3. Revenue recognition

Revenue is derived primarily from the sale of products in a variety of mobile, industrial and aerospace markets. A majority of the Company’s revenues are recognized at a point in time. However, a portion of the Company’s revenues are recognized over time.

Diversified Industrial Segment revenues by technology platform:

Total	$	3,497,974	$	3,472,045	$	6,832,485	$	6,951,339

The majority of revenues from the Aerospace Systems Segment are generated from sales to customers within North America.

Contract balances

Contract assets and contract liabilities are reported on a contract-by-contract basis. Contract assets reflect revenue recognized and performance obligations satisfied in advance of customer billing. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of the satisfaction of performance under the contract. Payments from customers are received based on the terms established in the contract with the customer.

Total contract assets and contract liabilities are as follows:



	December 31, 2019			June 30, 2019
Contract assets, current (included within Prepaid expenses and other)	$	26,981		$	22,726
Contract assets, noncurrent (included within Investments and other assets)	1,146			1,301
Total contract assets	28,127			24,027
Contract liabilities, current (included within Other accrued liabilities)	(58,323		)	(64,668		)
Contract liabilities, noncurrent (included within Other liabilities)	(406		)	(421		)
Total contract liabilities	(58,729		)	(65,089		)
Net contract liabilities	$	(30,602	)	$	(41,062	)

At December 31, 2019, the change in net contract liabilities was primarily due to timing differences between when revenue was recognized and the receipt of advance payments. During the six months ended December 31, 2019, approximately $22 million of revenue was recognized that was included in the contract liabilities at June 30, 2019.

Remaining performance obligations

Our backlog represents written firm orders from a customer to deliver products and, in the case of blanket purchase orders, only includes the portion of the order for which a schedule or release has been agreed to with the customer. We believe our backlog represents our unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations. Backlog at December 31, 2019 was $5,503 million, of which approximately 89 percent is expected to be recognized as revenue within the next 12 months and the balance thereafter.

4. Acquisitions

On October 29, 2019, we completed the acquisition of a 100 percent equity interest in LORD Corporation ("Lord") for approximately $3,453 million in cash, including the assumption of debt. On September 16, 2019, we completed the acquisition of a 100 percent equity interest in EMFCO Holdings Incorporated, parent company of Exotic Metals Forming Company LLC ("Exotic") for approximately $1,706 million in cash.

Lord is a diversified technology and manufacturing company developing highly reliable adhesives and coatings, as well as vibration and motion control technologies, that significantly reduce risk and improve product performance. Lord’s products are used in mission-critical applications in the aerospace, automotive and industrial markets. Lord had annual sales of approximately $1,025 million for its fiscal 2018. For segment reporting purposes, approximately 95 percent of Lord's sales are included in the Diversified Industrial Segment, while the remaining five percent are included in the Aerospace Systems Segment. Lord’s unique and proprietary products, solutions and technologies for mission-critical applications are expected to increase the Company's overall engineered materials product and solutions offerings to enable a stronger value proposition for customers.

Exotic designs and manufactures innovative and technically demanding, high temperature, high pressure air and exhaust management solutions for aircraft and engines. Exotic had annual sales of approximately $409 million for its fiscal 2019.

For segment reporting purposes, Exotic is included in the Aerospace Systems Segment. We believe Exotic's products and proprietary manufacturing capabilities are complementary to our portfolio of flight control, fuel and inerting, hydraulics, fluid conveyance and engine components.

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The process of estimating the fair values of certain tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities requires the use of judgment in determining the appropriate assumptions and estimates. The following presents the preliminary estimated fair values of Lord and Exotic's assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the respective acquisition dates. These preliminary estimates are based on available information and will be revised during the measurement period, not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date, as third-party valuations are finalized, additional information becomes available and as additional analysis is performed. Such revisions may have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position within the measurement period. During the current-year quarter, these revisions, which primarily impacted intangible assets, goodwill, and plant and equipment, did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Net assets acquired	$	3,453,162	$	1,705,566

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired. With respect to the Lord and Exotic acquisitions, goodwill represents cost synergies and enhancements to our existing technologies. For tax purposes, Lord's goodwill is not deductible and Exotic's goodwill is deductible. Based upon a preliminary acquisition valuation, intangibles acquired as part of the Exotic acquisition include $501,610 of customer-related intangible assets, $281,500 of patents and technology and $90,600 of trademarks, with weighted average estimated useful lives of 18, 20 and 20 years, respectively. Similarly, Lord's acquisition includes $917,640 of customer-related intangible assets, $456,680 of patents and technology and $118,640 of trademarks, with weighted average estimated useful lives of 13, 21 and 20 years, respectively.

Our consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of Lord and Exotic from their respective acquisition dates through December 31, 2019. Net sales attributable to these acquisitions during this period and included in our consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 total $285,905 and $307,188, respectively. Segment operating (loss) attributable to these acquisitions during this period and included in our consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 total $(20,054) and $(19,820), respectively.

Acquisition-related transaction costs totaled $114,672 for fiscal 2020. These costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

5. Earnings per share

The following table presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	December 31,				December 31,
	2019		2018		2019		2018
Numerator:
Net income attributable to common shareholders	$	204,474	$	311,737	$	543,372	$	687,448
Denominator:
Basic - weighted average common shares	128,396,933		130,361,273		128,430,463		131,361,464
Increase in weighted average common shares from dilutive effect of equity-based awards	2,098,448		1,949,937		1,723,616		2,088,210
Diluted - weighted average common shares, assuming exercise of equity-based awards	130,495,381		132,311,210		130,154,079		133,449,674

Diluted earnings per share	$	1.57	$	2.36	$	4.17	$	5.15

For the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, 2,718 and 1,335,187 common shares subject to equity-based awards, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of their exercise would be anti-dilutive. For the six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, 767,692 and 836,099 common shares subject to equity-based awards, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of their exercise would be anti-dilutive.

6. Share repurchase program

The Company has a program to repurchase its common shares. On October 22, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an increase in the overall number of shares authorized for repurchase under the program so that, beginning on such date, the aggregate number of shares authorized for repurchase was 35 million. There is no limitation on the number of shares that can be repurchased in a fiscal year. There is no expiration date for this program. Repurchases may be funded primarily from operating cash flows and commercial paper borrowings and the shares are initially held as treasury shares. During the three months ended December 31, 2019, we repurchased 260,287 shares at an average price, including commissions, of $192.10 per share. During the six months ended December 31, 2019, we repurchased 555,381 shares at an average price, including commissions, of $180.06 per share.

7. Trade accounts receivable, net

Trade accounts receivable are initially recorded at their net collectible amount and are generally recorded at the time the revenue from the sales transaction is recorded. Receivables are written off to bad debt primarily when, in the judgment of the Company, the receivable is deemed to be uncollectible due to the insolvency of the debtor. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $11,352 and $8,874 at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

8. Non-trade and notes receivable

The non-trade and notes receivable caption in the Consolidated Balance Sheet is comprised of the following components:

Raw materials	278,401		164,286
Total	$	2,014,260	$	1,678,132

10. Leases

We primarily enter into lease agreements for office space, distribution centers, certain manufacturing facilities and equipment. The majority of our leases are operating leases. Finance leases are immaterial to our financial statements. In addition, leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Certain leases contain options that provide us with the ability to extend the lease term. Such options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. When accounting for leases, we combine payments for leased assets, related services and other components of a lease. Payments within certain lease agreements are adjusted periodically for changes in an index or rate.

The discount rate implicit within our leases is generally not determinable and therefore we determine the discount rate based on our incremental borrowing rate. The incremental borrowing rate for our leases is determined based on lease term and the currency in which lease payments are made.

The components of lease expense are as follows:



	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	December 31, 2019		December 31, 2019
Operating lease expense	$	12,879	$	24,830

11. Business realignment and acquisition integration charges

We incurred business realignment and acquisition integration charges in fiscal 2020 and 2019. The business realignment charges primarily consist of severance costs related to actions taken under the Company's simplification initiative aimed at reducing organizational and process complexity as well as plant closures. The prior-year acquisition integration charges relate to the fiscal 2017 acquisition of CLARCOR, Inc. ("Clarcor") and primarily consist of severance costs and expenses related to plant closures and relocations. A majority of the business realignment charges were incurred in North America and Europe. We believe the realignment actions will positively impact future results of operations but will not have a material effect on liquidity and sources and uses of capital.

Business realignment and Clarcor acquisition integration charges presented in the Business Segment Information are as follows:



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	December 31,				December 31,
	2019		2018		2019		2018

Selling, general and administrative expenses	2,157		3,713		3,535		7,872
Other (income), net	—		220		—		275

During the first six months of fiscal 2020, approximately $15 million in payments were made relating to business realignment and Clarcor acquisition integration charges. Remaining payments related to current-year and prior-year business realignment and acquisition integration actions of approximately $11 million, a majority of which are expected to be paid by December 31, 2020, are primarily reflected within the other accrued liabilities caption in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Additional charges may be recognized in future periods related to the business realignment described above, the timing and amount of which are not known at this time.

We also incurred the following acquisition integration charges related to the Lord and Exotic acquisitions:



	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	December 31,		December 31,
	2019		2019
Diversified Industrial	$	6,725	$	10,139

Intangible assets are amortized on the straight-line method over their legal or estimated useful lives. The following summarizes the gross carrying value and accumulated amortization for each major category of intangible assets:



	December 31, 2019				June 30, 2019
	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization
Patents and technology	$	992,729	$	138,740	$	265,644	$	130,233

Total	$	5,620,915	$	1,584,807	$	3,243,678	$	1,460,401

Total intangible amortization expense for the six months ended December 31, 2019 was $128,174. The estimated amortization expense for the five years ending June 30, 2020 through 2024 is $277,637, $314,987, $308,949, $297,923 and $292,311, respectively.

Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the undiscounted net cash flows to be generated by their use over their expected useful lives and eventual disposition may be less than their net carrying value. No material intangible asset impairments occurred during the six months ended December 31, 2019.

14. Retirement benefits

Net pension benefit expense recognized included the following components:



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	December 31,						December 31,
	2019			2018			2019			2018

Expected return on plan assets	(66,883		)	(62,701		)	(130,778		)	(125,578		)
Amortization of prior service cost	1,309			1,677			2,818			3,325
Amortization of net actuarial loss	42,779			30,692			82,340			59,985

During the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we recognized $510 and $631, respectively, in expense related to other postretirement benefits. During the six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we recognized $967 and $1,281, respectively, in expense related to other postretirement benefits. Components of retirement benefits expense, other than service cost, are included in other (income), net in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

15. Debt

In September 2019, the Company entered into and fully drew against a term loan with an aggregate principal amount of $925 million, which will mature in its entirety in September 2023. We used the proceeds to finance a portion of the purchase of the Exotic acquisition. In October 2019, we fully drew against the $800 million term loan, which will mature in its entirety in May 2022. We used the proceeds to finance a portion of the purchase of the Lord acquisition. At December 31, 2019, both term loans had an interest rate of LIBOR plus 112.5 bps. Interest payments are due quarterly.

In September 2019, we also amended and extended our existing multi-currency credit agreement, increasing its capacity to $2,500 million. Commercial paper notes outstanding at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 were $1,518 million and $586 million, respectively. Based on the Company’s rating level at December 31, 2019, the most restrictive financial covenant provides that the ratio of debt to debt-shareholders' equity cannot exceed .65 to 1.0. At December 31, 2019, our debt to debt-shareholders' equity ratio was .61 to 1.0. We are in compliance with all covenants set forth in the credit agreement and indentures.

16. Income taxes

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and in various foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. The Company is open to assessment of its federal income tax returns by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years after 2013, and its state and local returns for fiscal years after 2013. The Company is also open to assessment for foreign jurisdictions for fiscal years after 2009. Unrecognized tax benefits reflect the difference between positions taken or expected to be taken on income tax returns and the amounts reflected in the financial statements.

As of December 31, 2019, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $136,103, all of which, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. The accrued interest related to the gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluded from the amounts above, is $26,617. It is reasonably possible that within the next 12 months the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits could be reduced by up to approximately $100,000 as a result of the revaluation of existing uncertain tax positions arising from developments in the examination process or the closure of tax statutes. Any increase in the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months is expected to be insignificant.

17. Financial instruments

Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and other investments, accounts receivable and long-term investments as well as obligations under accounts payable, trade, notes payable and long-term debt. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, trade and notes payable approximate fair value.

Marketable securities and other investments include deposits and equity investments. Deposits are recorded at cost, and equity investments are recorded at fair value. Changes in fair value related to equity investments are recorded in net income.

Gross unrealized gains and losses related to equity investments were not material as of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019. There were no facts or circumstances that indicated the unrealized losses were other than temporary.

The carrying value of long-term debt and estimated fair value of long-term debt are as follows:



	December 31, 2019		June 30, 2019
Carrying value of long-term debt	$	8,302,561	$	6,596,380
Estimated fair value of long-term debt	8,780,550		7,012,641

The fair value of long-term debt is classified within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

We utilize derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts, costless collar contracts, cross-currency swap contracts and certain foreign denominated debt designated as net investment hedges, to manage foreign currency transaction and translation risk. The derivative financial instrument contracts are with major investment grade financial institutions and we do not anticipate any material non-performance by any of the counterparties. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

The Company’s €700 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2025 have been designated as a hedge of the Company’s net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries. The translation of the Senior Notes due 2025 into U.S. dollars is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) and remains there until the underlying net investment is sold or substantially liquidated.

Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value.

The location and fair value of derivative financial instruments reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheet are as follows:



	Balance Sheet Caption	December 31, 2019		June 30, 2019
Net investment hedges
Cross-currency swap contracts	Other assets	$	32,485	$	24,545

Costless collar contracts	Non-trade and notes receivable	1,559		457
Costless collar contracts	Other accrued liabilities	2,857		1,934

The cross-currency swap, forward exchange contracts and costless collar contracts are reflected on a gross basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. We have not entered into any master netting arrangements.

Gains or losses on derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair value through the cost of sales caption in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Gains or losses on derivatives that are hedges are adjusted to fair value through accumulated other comprehensive (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the hedged item is recognized in earnings.

The cross-currency swap contracts have been designated as hedging instruments. The forward exchange and costless collar contracts have not been designated as hedging instruments and are considered to be economic hedges of forecasted transactions.

Gains or losses on derivative financial instruments that were recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 were not material.

Gains (losses) on derivative and non-derivative financial instruments that were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet are as follows:

The fair values of the equity securities are determined using the closing market price reported in the active market in which the fund is traded.

Derivatives consist of forward exchange, costless collar and cross-currency swap contracts, the fair values of which are calculated using market observable inputs including both spot and forward prices for the same underlying currencies. The calculation of the fair value of the cross-currency swap contracts also utilizes a present value cash flow model that has been adjusted to reflect the credit risk of either the Company or the counterparty.

Investments measured at net asset value primarily consist of investments in fixed income mutual funds, which are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share practical expedient. These investments have not been categorized in the fair value hierarchy. We have the ability to liquidate these investments after giving appropriate notice to the issuer.

The primary investment objective for all investments is the preservation of principal and liquidity while earning income.

There are no other financial assets or financial liabilities that are marked to market on a recurring basis.

PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION

FORM 10-Q

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019

AND COMPARABLE PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018

OVERVIEW

The Company is a leading worldwide diversified manufacturer of motion and control technologies and systems, providing precision engineered solutions for a wide variety of mobile, industrial and aerospace markets.

Our order rates provide a near-term perspective of the Company’s outlook particularly when viewed in the context of prior and future order rates. The Company publishes its order rates on a quarterly basis. The lead time between the time an order is received and revenue is realized generally ranges from one day to 12 weeks for mobile and industrial orders and from one day to 18 months for aerospace orders. We believe the leading economic indicators of these markets that have a strong correlation to the Company’s future order rates are as follows:


•	Purchasing Managers Index ("PMI") on manufacturing activity specific to regions around the world with respect to most mobile and industrial markets;


•	Global aircraft miles flown and global revenue passenger miles for commercial aerospace markets and U.S. Department of Defense spending for military aerospace markets; and


•	Housing starts with respect to the North American residential air conditioning market and certain mobile construction markets.

A PMI above 50 indicates that the manufacturing activity specific to a region of the world in the mobile and industrial markets is expanding. A PMI below 50 indicates the opposite. Recent PMI levels for some regions around the world were as follows:



	December 31, 2019	June 30, 2019	December 31, 2018
United States	52.4	50.6	54.1
Eurozone countries	46.3	47.6	51.4
China	51.5	49.4	49.7
Brazil	50.2	51.0	52.6

Global aircraft miles flown and available revenue passenger miles each increased by approximately four percent from their comparable fiscal 2019 levels. The Company anticipates that U.S. Department of Defense spending with regard to appropriations and operations and maintenance for the U.S. Government’s fiscal year 2020 will be approximately three percent higher than the comparable fiscal 2019 level.

Housing starts in December 2019 were approximately 41 percent and 28 percent higher than housing starts in December 2018 and June 2019, respectively.

- 21 -

We believe many opportunities for profitable growth are available. The Company intends to focus primarily on business opportunities in the areas of energy, water, food, environment, defense, life sciences, infrastructure and transportation. We believe we can meet our strategic objectives by:


•	Serving the customer and continuously enhancing its experience with the Company;


•	Successfully executing The Win Strategy initiatives relating to engaged people, premier customer experience, profitable growth and financial performance;


•	Maintaining a decentralized division and sales company structure;


•	Fostering a safety first and entrepreneurial culture;


•	Engineering innovative systems and products to provide superior customer value through improved service, efficiency and productivity;


•	Delivering products, systems and services that have demonstrable savings to customers and are priced by the value they deliver;


•	Acquiring strategic businesses;


•	Organizing around targeted regions, technologies and markets;


•	Driving efficiency by implementing lean enterprise principles; and


•	Creating a culture of empowerment through our values, inclusion and diversity, accountability and teamwork.

Acquisitions will be considered from time to time to the extent there is a strong strategic fit, while at the same time maintaining the Company’s strong financial position. During October 2019, we completed the acquisition of LORD Corporation ("Lord") for approximately $3,453 million in cash, including the assumption of debt. We also completed the acquisition of EMFCO Holdings Incorporated, parent company of Exotic Metals Forming Company LLC ("Exotic") for approximately $1,706 million in cash during September 2019. Refer to Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the acquisitions.

We continue to assess our existing businesses and may initiate efforts to divest businesses that are not considered to be a good long-term strategic fit for the Company. Future business divestitures could have a negative effect on the Company’s results of operations.

The discussion below is structured to separately discuss the Consolidated Statement of Income, Business Segment Information, Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Company", "Parker", "we" or "us" refer to Parker-Hannifin Corporation and its subsidiaries.

Net income, as a percent of sales	5.8		%	9.0		%	8.0		%	9.9		%

Net sales for the current-year quarter remained relatively flat compared to the prior-year quarter and decreased during the first six months of fiscal 2020 compared to the same prior-year period. Lower volume in the Diversified Industrial North American and International businesses, partially offset by higher volume in the Aerospace Systems Segment, was the primary driver for the change in net sales in both periods. The decrease in volume was partially offset by acquisitions made in the last 12 months, which contributed approximately $286 million and $307 million in net sales during the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020, respectively. The effect of currency rate changes decreased net sales by approximately $15 million in the

- 22 -

current-year quarter, which was primarily comprised of a $17 million decrease in the Diversified Industrial International businesses and a $3 million increase in the Diversified Industrial North American businesses. During the first six months of fiscal 2020, the effect of currency rate changes decreased net sales by approximately $67 million ($65 million of which was attributable to the Diversified Industrial International businesses).

Gross profit margin (calculated as net sales minus cost of sales, divided by net sales) decreased in the current-year quarter and the first six months of fiscal 2020 primarily due to lower margins in both the Aerospace Systems Segment and Diversified Industrial Segment. Margins decreased in the current-year quarter and the first six months of fiscal 2020 primarily due to lower volume in the Diversified Industrial Segment and acquisition-related expenses of $49 million and $51 million, respectively. Cost of sales for the current-year quarter and prior-year quarter included business realignment and acquisition integration charges of $8 million and $4 million, respectively, and $12 million and $8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased during the current-year quarter and the first six months of fiscal 2020 primarily due to acquisition-related transaction costs of $100 million and $115 million in the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020, respectively. Intangible asset amortization expense related to the acquisitions of Lord and Exotic also increased selling, general and administrative in the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020. These expenses were partially offset by a net benefit associated with the Company's deferred compensation programs. Favorable market fluctuations related to investments associated with these programs more than offset unfavorable changes in the related liabilities. Selling, general and administrative expenses included business realignment and acquisition integration charges of $9 million and $4 million for the current-year and prior-year quarter, respectively, and $14 million and $8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Interest expense for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 increased from the comparable prior-year periods primarily due to higher average debt outstanding.

Other (income), net included the following:



(dollars in millions)	Three Months Ended December 31,						Six Months Ended December 31,
Expense (income)	2019			2018			2019			2018
Income related to equity method investments	$	(21	)	$	(23	)	$	(44	)	$	(46	)
Non-service components of retirement benefit cost	14			11			25			19
Loss (gain) on disposal of assets and divestitures	6			5			(4		)	5
Interest income	(8		)	(4		)	(26		)	(7		)
Other items, net	(5		)	5			(12		)	9
	$	(14	)	$	(6	)	$	(61	)	$	(20	)

Effective tax rate for the current-year quarter and the first six months of fiscal 2020 was lower than the comparable prior-year periods primarily due to an overall increase in discrete tax benefits. The Company expects the fiscal 2020 effective tax rate will be approximately 22.5 percent.

The Diversified Industrial Segment operations experienced the following percentage changes in net sales in the current-year period versus the comparable prior-year period:



	Period Ending December 31, 2019
	Three Months		Six Months
Diversified Industrial North America – as reported	(1.0	)%	(2.2	)%
Acquisitions	7.3	%	3.6	%
Currency	0.2	%	—	%
Diversified Industrial North America – without acquisitions and currency	(8.5	)%	(5.8	)%

Diversified Industrial International – as reported	(6.3	)%	(9.4	)%
Acquisitions	4.5	%	2.3	%
Currency	(1.4	)%	(2.7	)%
Diversified Industrial International – without acquisitions and currency	(9.4	)%	(9.0	)%

Total Diversified Industrial Segment – as reported	(3.2	)%	(5.3	)%
Acquisitions	6.1	%	3.0	%
Currency	(0.4	)%	(1.1	)%
Total Diversified Industrial Segment – without acquisitions and currency	(8.9	)%	(7.2	)%

The above presentation reconciles the percentage changes in net sales of the Diversified Industrial Segment reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to percentage changes in net sales adjusted to remove the effects of acquisitions made within the last 12 months as well as currency exchange rates (a non-GAAP measure). The effects of acquisitions and currency exchange rates are removed to allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage changes in net sales on a comparable basis from period to period.

Sales in the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 for the Diversified Industrial North American businesses decreased 1.0 percent and 2.2 percent, respectively. The effect of acquisitions increased sales by approximately $119 million in both the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020. The effect of currency exchange rates did not have a significant impact on sales in the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020. Excluding the effects of acquisitions and changes in the currency exchange rates, Diversified Industrial North American sales for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 decreased primarily due to lower demand from distributors and end users in the construction equipment, engines, farm and agriculture, cars and light truck, heavy-duty truck, general industrial machinery and refrigeration markets.

Sales in the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 for the Diversified Industrial International operations decreased 6.3 percent and 9.4 percent from the prior-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019, respectively. The effect of acquisitions increased sales by approximately $56 million in both the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020.

- 24 -

The effect of currency exchange rates decreased sales by approximately $17 million and $65 million from the prior-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019, respectively. Excluding the effects of acquisitions and changes in currency exchange rates, Diversified Industrial International sales for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 decreased primarily due to lower demand from distributors and end users in the mobile and industrial markets. Europe and the Asia Pacific region accounted for approximately 55 percent and 40 percent, respectively, of the decrease in sales during the current-year quarter, while Latin America contributed the remainder of the change. During the first six months of fiscal 2020, the decrease in sales is primarily related to Europe and the Asia Pacific region, which accounted for approximately 65 percent and 30 percent of the decrease, respectively.

Within Europe, the decrease in sales for both the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 was primarily due to lower demand from distributors and end users in the general industrial machinery, machine tool, construction equipment, heavy-duty truck, material handling and power generation markets.

Within the Asia Pacific region, the decrease in current-year quarter sales and first six months of fiscal 2020 was primarily due to lower demand from distributors and end users in the construction equipment, telecommunications and railroad equipment markets. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in end-user demand in the mining, marine, oil and gas and engine markets.

The decrease in sales in Latin America for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 was primarily due to lower demand from distributors and end users in the construction equipment market, partially offset by an increase in end-user demand in the oil and gas market.

Diversified Industrial Segment operating margins within the North American businesses decreased in the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 primarily due to lower sales volume, acquisition-related expenses, and higher intangible asset amortization expense, partially offset by benefits from simplification, restructuring and acquisition integration activities, favorable product mix and prior-year pricing actions.

Diversified Industrial Segment operating margins within the International businesses decreased in the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 primarily due to lower sales volume and acquisition-related expenses. Benefits from simplification, restructuring and acquisition integration activities, and prior-year pricing actions partially offset the decrease in margins.

The following business realignment and acquisition integration charges are included in Diversified Industrial North American and Diversified Industrial International operating income:



	Three Months Ended December 31,				Six Months Ended December 31,
(dollars in millions)	2019		2018		2019		2018
Diversified Industrial North America	$	8	$	4	$	13	$	9
Diversified Industrial International	8		4		11		7

The business realignment charges primarily consist of severance costs related to actions taken under the Company's simplification initiative implemented by operating units throughout the world as well as plant closures. Current-year acquisition integration charges relate to the Lord acquisition. Prior-year acquisition integration charges relate to the fiscal 2017 acquisition of CLARCOR Inc. ("Clarcor"). Business realignment and acquisition integration charges within the Diversified Industrial International businesses were primarily incurred in Europe. We anticipate that cost savings realized from the workforce reduction measures taken during the first six months of fiscal 2020 will increase operating income by approximately one percent in fiscal 2020 and 2021 for both the Diversified Industrial North American and International businesses. We expect to continue to take the actions necessary to integrate acquisitions and structure appropriately the operations of the Diversified Industrial Segment. These actions are expected to result in approximately $40 million of additional business realignment and acquisition integration charges in the remainder of fiscal 2020.

Diversified Industrial Segment backlog as of December 31, 2019 increased from the prior-year quarter primarily due to the addition of the Lord backlog in the current-year quarter, partially offset by shipments exceeding orders in both the North American and International businesses. Excluding the impact of Lord, the Diversified Industrial North American and International backlog accounted for approximately 75 percent and 25 percent of the change, respectively. Within the International businesses, Europe accounted for approximately 80 percent of the change, while the remaining 20 percent primarily related to the Asia Pacific region.

- 25 -

As of December 31, 2019, Diversified Industrial Segment backlog increased compared to the June 30, 2019 amount of $2,011 million primarily due to the addition of Lord backlog during the current-year quarter. Excluding the impact of Lord, backlog in Diversified Industrial Segment decreased as shipments exceeded orders in the North American businesses, partially offset by orders exceeding shipments in the International businesses. Within the International businesses, the Asia Pacific region and Europe accounted for approximately 60 percent and 30 percent of the increase, respectively, while the remainder related to Latin America.

Backlog consists of written firm orders from a customer to deliver products and, in the case of blanket purchase orders, only includes the portion of the order for which a schedule or release date has been agreed to with the customer. The dollar value of backlog is equal to the amount that is expected to be billed to the customer and reported as a sale.

Aerospace Systems Segment



	Three Months Ended December 31,						Six Months Ended December 31,
(dollars in millions)	2019			2018			2019			2018
Net sales	$	735		$	616		$	1,366		$	1,181
Operating income	$	121		$	121		$	244		$	231
Operating margin	16.5		%	19.7		%	17.9		%	19.6		%
Backlog	$	3,183		$	2,048		$	3,183		$	2,048

The increase in net sales in the Aerospace Systems Segment for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 was primarily due to acquisitions, which contributed $111 million and $132 million in net sales during the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020, respectively. Higher volume in the commercial aftermarket and military original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") businesses, partially offset by lower volume in the military aftermarket and commercial OEM businesses, also contributed to the increase in net sales during the current-year quarter. In the first first six months of fiscal 2020, higher volume in the commercial and military aftermarket and military OEM businesses, partially offset by lower volume in the commercial OEM business, also increased net sales.

Operating margin decreased during the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 compared to the prior-year periods primarily due to acquisition-related expenses and higher intangible amortization expense. Acquisition integration charges also decreased margins during the first six months of fiscal 2020. These expenses were partially offset by favorable OEM product mix and higher commercial aftermarket volume during the current-year quarter and higher aftermarket and OEM volume and favorable OEM product mix during the first six months of fiscal 2020.

The increase in backlog from both the prior-year quarter and June 30, 2019 amount of $2,209 million is primarily due to the addition of the Exotic backlog in the first six months of fiscal 2020. Orders exceeding shipments within the commercial and military OEM and commercial and military aftermarket also contributed to the increase in backlog from both the prior-year quarter and June 30, 2019 amounts. Backlog consists of written firm orders from a customer to deliver products and, in the case of blanket purchase orders, only includes the portion of the order for which a schedule or release date has been agreed to with the customer. The dollar value of backlog is equal to the amount that is expected to be billed to the customer and reported as a sale.

Corporate general and administrative expenses

Corporate general and administrative expenses were $36 million in the current-year quarter compared to $64 million in the prior-year quarter and were $85 million for the first six months of fiscal 2020 compared to $114 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019. As a percent of sales, corporate general and administrative expenses were 1.0 percent and 1.8 percent in the current-year and prior-year quarter, respectively. During the first six months of fiscal 2020 and 2019, corporate general and administrative expenses were 1.2 percent and 1.6 percent of sales, respectively. Corporate general and administrative expenses decreased in the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 from the respective prior-year periods primarily due to a net benefit associated with the Company's deferred compensation programs. Favorable market fluctuations related to investments associated with these programs more than offset unfavorable changes in the related liabilities.

Cash (comprised of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities and other investments) includes $1,022 million and $975 million held by the Company's foreign subsidiaries at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company has determined it will no longer permanently reinvest certain foreign earnings. The distribution of these earnings could result in non-federal U.S. or foreign taxes. All other undistributed foreign earnings remain permanently reinvested.

Trade accounts receivable, net are receivables due from customers for sales of product. Days sales outstanding relating to trade accounts receivable was 52 days at December 31, 2019, and 53 days at June 30, 2019. We believe that our receivables are collectible and appropriate allowances for doubtful accounts have been recorded.

Inventories as of December 31, 2019 increased by $336 million (which includes an increase of $366 million from acquisitions and a decrease of $4 million from the effect of foreign currency translation). After consideration of the effects of the acquisitions and foreign currency translation, inventories decreased primarily due to a decrease in the Diversified Industrial Segment, partially offset by an increase in the Aerospace Systems Segment. Days supply of inventory on hand was 84 days at December 31, 2019, 69 days at June 30, 2019 and 77 days at December 31, 2018.

Intangible assets, net and Goodwill increased from prior year-end primarily due to the current-year acquisitions of Lord and Exotic. Refer to Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Notes payable and long-term debt payable within one year increased from prior year-end primarily due to higher commercial paper notes outstanding of which a portion was used to finance the purchase of the Lord and Exotic acquisitions.

Long-term debt increased by $1,620 million primarily due to outstanding term loans related to the acquisition of Lord and Exotic. Refer to Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Shareholders’ equity activity during the first six months of fiscal 2020 included a decrease of approximately $100 million as a result of share repurchases and an increase of approximately $49 million as a result of foreign currency translation.

Cash flows provided by operating activities for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was higher than the first six months of fiscal 2019 primarily due to an increase in cash provided by working capital items. We continue to focus on managing our inventory and other working capital requirements.

Cash flows used in investing activities increased primarily due to acquisition activity in the first six months of fiscal 2020. It also includes $119 million and $94 million of capital expenditures in the first six months of fiscal 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Cash flows provided by financing activities for the first six months of fiscal 2020 includes net commercial paper borrowings of $932 million compared to $606 million in the first six months of fiscal 2019. Cash flows from financing activities in the first six months of fiscal 2020 also includes proceeds from the $925 million and $800 million term loans related to the acquisition of Exotic and Lord, respectively. Refer to Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Our goal is to maintain a strong investment-grade credit profile. The rating agencies periodically update our credit ratings as events occur. At December 31, 2019, the long-term credit ratings assigned to the Company's senior debt securities by the credit rating agencies engaged by the Company were as follows:



Fitch Ratings		BBB+
Moody's Investor Services, Inc.		Baa1
Standard & Poor's		A-

During September 2019, the Company amended and extended its existing multi-currency credit agreement, increasing its capacity to $2,500 million. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had $982 million available for borrowing under the credit agreement. The credit agreement expires in September 2024; however, the Company has the right to request a one-year extension of the expiration date on an annual basis, which request may result in changes to the current terms and conditions of the credit agreement. Advances from the credit agreement can be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and for the refinancing of existing indebtedness. The credit agreement requires the payment of an annual facility fee, the amount of which is dependent upon the Company’s credit ratings. Although a lowering of the Company’s credit ratings would increase the cost of future debt, it would not limit the Company’s ability to use the credit agreement nor would it accelerate the repayment of any outstanding borrowings.

As of December 31, 2019, the Company was authorized to sell up to $2,500 million of short-term commercial paper notes. As of December 31, 2019, $1,518 million of commercial paper notes were outstanding, and the largest amount of commercial paper notes outstanding during the current-year quarter was $1,770 million.

The Company’s credit agreements and indentures governing certain debt securities contain various covenants, the violation of which would limit or preclude the use of the credit agreements for future borrowings, or might accelerate the maturity of the related outstanding borrowings covered by the indentures. Based on the Company’s rating level at December 31, 2019, the most restrictive financial covenant provides that the ratio of debt to debt-shareholders' equity cannot exceed .65 to 1.0. At December 31, 2019, the Company's debt to debt-shareholders' equity ratio was .61 to 1.0. We are in compliance and expect to remain in compliance with all covenants set forth in the credit agreement and indentures.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company manages foreign currency transaction and translation risk by utilizing derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts, costless collar contracts, cross-currency swap contracts and certain foreign denominated debt designated as net investment hedges. The derivative financial instrument contracts are with major investment grade financial institutions and we do not anticipate any material non-performance by any of the counterparties. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. Further information on the fair value of these contracts is provided in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Gains or losses on derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair value through the Consolidated Statement of Income. Gains or losses on derivatives that are hedges are adjusted to fair value through accumulated other comprehensive (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The translation of the foreign denominated debt that has been designated as a net investment hedge is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) and remains there until the underlying net investment is sold or substantially liquidated.

The Company’s debt portfolio contains variable rate debt, inherently exposing the Company to interest rate risk. Our objective is to maintain a 60/40 mix between fixed rate and variable rate debt thereby limiting our exposure to changes in near-term interest rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2019. Based on this evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2019, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

The Company acquired Exotic during September 2019 and Lord during October 2019. We are currently integrating the processes and internal controls of Exotic and Lord. Except for the Exotic and Lord acquisitions, there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2019 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
