1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Pitney Bowes Inc. and its subsidiaries (we, us, our or the company) is a global provider of technology solutions helping small, mid-sized and large firms connect to customers to facilitate and simplify commerce, build loyalty and grow revenue. We deliver our solutions on open platforms to best organize, analyze and apply public and proprietary data to two-way customer communications. We offer solutions for direct mail, transactional mail, customer engagement management and analytics and ecommerce parcel management, along with digital channel messaging for the Web, email and mobile applications. We conduct our business activities in five reportable segments. See Note 2 for information regarding our reportable segments.

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In addition, the December 31, 2013 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In management's opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2014.

On April 15, 2014, Pitney Bowes of Canada Ltd. (PB Canada), a wholly owned subsidiary, completed the sale of its Document Imaging Solutions (DIS) business, which consisted of hardware (copiers and printers), document management software solutions and the related lease portfolio to Konica Minolta Business Solutions (Canada) Ltd. (Konica Minolta) and a business equipment leasing services provider in two separate transactions. The operating results for DIS, originally included as part of the North America Mailing segment, have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. In addition, PB Canada and Konica Minolta also entered into a strategic alliance whereby Konica Minolta will represent PB Canada’s mailing business in certain territories in Canada.

During 2013, we sold certain businesses and realigned our segment reporting to reflect the clients we serve, the solutions we offer, and how we manage, review, analyze and measure our operations. Further, in the first quarter of 2014, we reclassified our shipping solutions operations from the Small & Medium Business Solutions segment group to the Digital Commerce Solutions segment. Prior year financial results have been recast to reflect those businesses sold as discontinued operations and our segment reporting has been recast to conform to our current segment presentation. The cash flows from discontinued operations are not separately stated or reclassified in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report to Stockholders on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the 2013 Annual Report).

During the third quarter of 2013, we determined that certain revenue previously reported as rentals revenue included a service component and should have been classified as support services revenue. Accordingly, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 have been revised to reflect the correct classification, resulting in a decrease in rentals revenue and corresponding increase in support services revenue of $5 million and $10 million, respectively. Also during the third quarter of 2013, we determined that certain research and development costs should have been classified as cost of software. Accordingly, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 have been revised to reflect the correct classification, resulting in a decrease in research and development expenses and a corresponding increase in cost of software of $4 million and $8 million, respectively. These revisions did not impact previously reported total revenue, total costs and expenses, net income or earnings per share amounts and the effect of these revisions was not material to any of our previously issued financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new standard requires companies to recognize revenue for the transfer of goods and services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration the company expects to receive in exchange for those goods and services. The new standard will also result in enhanced disclosures about revenue. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and can be adopted either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment. Early adoption is prohibited. We are assessing the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modifies the related disclosure requirements. The standard is effective on January 1, 2015, but

PITNEY BOWES INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited; table amounts in thousands of dollars, unless otherwise noted)

early adoption is permitted for disposals or classifications of assets held for sale that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. We elected to adopt this standard effective April 1, 2014. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. Segment Information

In 2013, as a result of the sale of certain businesses, we realigned our segment reporting to reflect the clients we serve, the solutions we offer, and how we manage, review, analyze and measure our operations. Further, in the first quarter of 2014, we reclassified our shipping solutions operations from the Small & Medium Business Solutions segment group to the Digital Commerce Solutions segment. Prior year segment reporting has been recast to conform to our current segment presentation. The principal products and services of each of our reportable segments are as follows:

Small & Medium Business Solutions:

North America Mailing: Includes the revenue and related expenses from the sale, rental and financing of mailing equipment and supplies for small and medium size businesses to efficiently create mail and evidence postage in the U.S. and Canada.

International Mailing: Includes the revenue and related expenses from the sale, rental and financing of mailing equipment and supplies for small and medium size businesses to efficiently create mail and evidence postage in areas outside North America.

Enterprise Business Solutions:

Production Mail: Includes the worldwide revenue and related expenses from the sale of high-speed, high-volume inserting and sortation equipment and production printer systems and supplies to large enterprise clients to process inbound and outbound mail and related support and other professional services.

Presort Services: Includes revenue and related expenses from presort mail services for our large enterprise clients to qualify large mail volumes for postal worksharing discounts.

Digital Commerce Solutions:

Digital Commerce Solutions: Includes the worldwide revenue and related expenses from (i) the sale and support services of non-equipment-based mailing, customer engagement, geocoding and location intelligence software; (ii) shipping and cross-border ecommerce solutions; (iii) direct marketing services for targeted clients; and (iv) digital mail delivery service offering.

We determine segment earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) by deducting from segment revenue the related costs and expenses attributable to the segment. Segment EBIT excludes interest, taxes, general corporate expenses, restructuring charges and other items, which are not allocated to a particular business segment. Management uses segment EBIT to measure profitability and performance at the segment level. Management believes segment EBIT provides an analysis of our operating performance and underlying trends of the businesses. Segment EBIT may not be indicative of our overall consolidated performance and therefore, should be read in conjunction with our consolidated results of operations.

3. Finance Assets

Finance Receivables

Finance receivables are comprised of sales-type lease receivables and unsecured revolving loan receivables. Sales-type lease receivables are generally due in monthly, quarterly or semi-annual installments over periods ranging from three to five years. Loan receivables arise primarily from financing services offered to our customers for postage and related supplies. Loan receivables are generally due each month; however, customers may rollover outstanding balances. Interest is recognized on loan receivables using the effective interest method and related annual fees are initially deferred and recognized ratably over the annual period covered. Customer acquisition costs are expensed as incurred.

Finance receivables at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted of the following:

Allowance for Credit Losses and Aging of Receivables

We estimate our finance receivable risks and provide an allowance for credit losses accordingly. We evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses based on historical loss experience, the nature and volume of our portfolios, adverse situations that may affect a client's ability to pay, prevailing economic conditions and our ability to manage the collateral and make adjustments to the allowance as necessary. This evaluation is inherently subjective and actual results may differ significantly from estimated reserves.

We establish credit approval limits based on the credit quality of the client and the type of equipment financed. Our policy is to discontinue revenue recognition for lease receivables that are more than 120 days past due and for unsecured loan receivables that are more than 90

days past due. We resume revenue recognition when payments reduce the account balance aging to 60 days or less past due. Finance receivables deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance after all collection efforts have been exhausted and management deems the account to be uncollectible. We believe that our finance receivable credit risk is limited because of our large number of clients, small account balances for most of our clients, and geographic and industry diversification.

Activity in the allowance for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was as follows:

Credit Quality

In extending and managing credit lines to new and existing clients, we use a combination of an automated credit score, where available, and a detailed manual review of the client’s financial condition and, when applicable, payment history. Once credit is granted, the payment performance of the client is managed through automated collections processes and is supplemented with direct follow up should an account become delinquent. We have robust automated collections and extensive portfolio management processes. The portfolio management processes ensure that our global strategy is executed, collection resources are allocated appropriately and enhanced tools and processes are implemented as needed.

We use a third party to score the majority of the North America portfolio on a quarterly basis using a commercial credit score. We do not use a third party to score our International portfolios because the cost to do so is prohibitive, it is a localized process and there is no single credit score model that covers all countries.

The table below shows the North America portfolio at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 by relative risk class (low, medium, high) based on the relative scores of the accounts within each class. The relative scores are determined based on a number of factors, including the company type, ownership structure, payment history and financial information. A fourth class is shown for accounts that are not scored. Absence of a score is not indicative of the credit quality of the account. The degree of risk, as defined by the third party, refers to the relative risk that an account in the next 12 month period may become delinquent.


•	Low risk accounts are companies with very good credit scores and are considered to approximate the top 30% of all commercial borrowers.


•	Medium risk accounts are companies with average to good credit scores and are considered to approximate the middle 40% of all commercial borrowers.


•	High risk accounts are companies with poor credit scores, are delinquent or are at risk of becoming delinquent and are considered to approximate the bottom 30% of all commercial borrowers.

Troubled Debt

We maintain a program for U.S. clients in our North America loan portfolio who are experiencing financial difficulties, but are able to make reduced payments over an extended period of time. Upon acceptance into the program, the client’s credit line is closed and interest accrual is suspended. There is generally no forgiveness of debt or reduction of balances owed. The balance of loans in this program, related loan loss allowance and write-offs are insignificant to the overall portfolio.

Leveraged Leases

PITNEY BOWES INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited; table amounts in thousands of dollars, unless otherwise noted)

Actual amortization expense may differ from the amounts above due to, among other things, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, impairments, acquisitions and accelerated amortization.

Goodwill

As a result of the reclassification of our shipping solutions operations from the Small & Medium Business Solutions segment group to the Digital Commerce Solutions segment, we reallocated goodwill on a relative fair value basis and performed the required goodwill impairment test during the first quarter of 2014. Based on the results of the impairment tests, we determined that the estimated fair values of the affected reporting units exceeded the carrying values.

The changes in the carrying value of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were as follows:



	Gross value before accumulated impairment (1)		Accumulated impairment		December 31, 2013		Other (2)			June 30, 2014

7. Fair Value Measurements and Derivative Instruments

We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure. An entity is required to classify certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on the following fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

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

Level 2 – Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, may be derived from internally developed methodologies based on management’s best estimate of fair value and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.

The following tables show, by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial assets and liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect its placement within the fair value hierarchy.

Investment Securities

The valuation of investment securities is based on the market approach using inputs that are observable, or can be corroborated by observable data, in an active marketplace. The following information relates to our classification into the fair value hierarchy:

•

Money Market Funds / Commercial Paper: Money market funds typically invest in highly liquid and low-risk securities, including government securities, certificates of deposit and commercial paper. Money market funds are principally used for overnight deposits and are classified as Level 1 when unadjusted quoted prices in active markets are available and as Level 2 when they are not actively traded on an exchange. Direct investments in commercial paper are not listed on an exchange in an active market and are classified as Level 2.


•	Equity Securities: Equity securities are comprised of mutual funds investing in U.S. and foreign common stock. These mutual funds are classified as Level 2 as they are not separately listed on an exchange.

•

Commingled Fixed Income Securities: Mutual funds that invest in a variety of fixed income securities including securities of the U.S. government and its agencies, corporate debt, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities. The value of the funds is based on the market value of the underlying investments owned by each fund, minus its liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, as reported by the fund manager. These commingled funds are not listed on an exchange in an active market and are classified as Level 2.

•

Debt Securities – U.S. and Foreign Governments, Agencies and Municipalities: Debt securities are classified as Level 1 where active, high volume trades for identical securities exist. Valuation adjustments are not applied to these securities. Debt securities valued using quoted market prices for similar securities or benchmarking model derived prices to quoted market prices and trade data for identical or comparable securities are classified as Level 2.


•	Debt Securities – Corporate: Corporate debt securities are valued using recently executed transactions, market price quotations where observable, or bond spreads. The spread data used are for the same maturity as the security. These securities are classified as Level 2.


•	Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS) / Asset-Backed Securities (ABS): These securities are valued based on external pricing indices. When external index pricing is not observable, MBS and ABS are valued based on external price/spread data. These securities are classified as Level 2.

Investment securities include investments held by The Pitney Bowes Bank (the Bank), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary whose primary business is to provide financing solutions to clients that rent or lease postage meters. The Bank's assets and liabilities consist primarily of cash, finance receivables, short and long-term investments and deposit accounts.

The Bank's investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and recorded at fair value in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and other assets depending on the type of investment and maturity. Unrealized holding gains and losses are recorded, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI).

Available-for-sale securities at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted of the following:



	June 30, 2014
	Amortized cost		Gross unrealized gains		Gross unrealized losses			Estimated fair value
Debt securities - U.S. and foreign governments, agencies and municipalities	$	102,854	$	1,986	$	(878	)	$	103,962
Debt securities - corporate	58,914		1,771		(130		)	60,555
Mortgage-backed / asset-backed securities	147,290		2,363		(1,314		)	148,339

	Amortized cost		Estimated fair value
Within 1 year	$	23,296	$	23,356
After 1 year through 5 years	47,382		48,261

After 10 years	152,467		154,035
Total	$	309,058	$	312,856

We have not experienced any significant write-offs in our investment portfolio. The majority of our MBS are either guaranteed or supported by the U.S. government. We have no investments in inactive markets that would warrant a possible change in our pricing methods or classification within the fair value hierarchy. Further, we have no investments in auction rate securities.

Derivative Instruments

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations. We limit these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of derivatives. We use derivatives to manage the related cost of debt and to limit the effects of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on financial results. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. We record our derivative instruments at fair value, and the accounting for changes in the fair value of the derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, the resulting designation, and the effectiveness of the instrument in offsetting the risk exposure it is designed to hedge.

As required by the fair value measurements guidance, we have incorporated counterparty credit risk and our credit risk into the fair value measurement of our derivative assets and liabilities, respectively. We derive credit risk from observable data related to credit default swaps. We have not seen a material change in the creditworthiness of those banks acting as derivative counterparties.

(Unaudited; table amounts in thousands of dollars, unless otherwise noted)

The fair value of derivative instruments at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was as follows:



Designation of Derivatives	Balance Sheet Location	June 30, 2014			December 31, 2013
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments	Other current assets and prepayments:
	Foreign exchange contracts	$	603		$	546
	Accounts payable and accrued liabilities:

	Total derivative liabilities	(3,509		)	(3,009		)
	Total net derivative liabilities	$	(2,577	)	$	(1,651	)

The valuation of foreign exchange derivatives is based on the market approach using observable market inputs, such as forward rates.

Interest Rate Swaps

Derivatives designated as fair value hedges include interest rate swaps related to fixed rate debt. Changes in the fair value of both the derivative and item being hedged are recognized in earnings. There were no interest rate swaps in effect during 2014. The following represents the results of fair value hedging relationships for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013:



		Derivative Gain (Loss) Recognized in Earnings				Hedged Item Expense Recognized in Earnings
Derivative Instrument	Location of Gain (Loss)	Three Months Ended June 30, 2013		Six Months Ended June 30, 2013		Three Months Ended June 30, 2013			Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Interest rate swaps	Interest expense	$	774	$	2,768	$	(2,742	)	$	(8,227	)

Foreign Exchange Contracts

We enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate the currency risk associated with the anticipated purchase of inventory between affiliates and from third parties. These contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gain or loss on cash flow hedges is included in AOCI in the period that the change in fair value occurs and is reclassified to earnings in the period that the hedged item is recorded in earnings. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had outstanding contracts associated with these anticipated transactions with a notional amount of $26 million. All outstanding contracts at June 30, 2014 mature within 12 months.

The amounts included in AOCI at June 30, 2014 will be recognized in earnings within the next 12 months. No amount of ineffectiveness was recorded in earnings for these designated cash flow hedges.

We also enter into foreign exchange contracts to minimize the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on short-term intercompany loans and related interest that are denominated in a foreign currency. The revaluation of the intercompany loans and interest and the mark-to-market adjustment on the derivatives are both recorded in earnings. All outstanding contracts at June 30, 2014 mature by the end of the year.

The following represents the results of our non-designated derivative instruments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features

Certain derivative instruments contain credit-risk-related contingent features that would require us to post collateral based on a combination of our long-term senior unsecured debt ratings and the net fair value of our derivatives. At June 30, 2014, we were not required to post any collateral. The maximum amount of collateral that we would have been required to post at June 30, 2014, had the credit-risk-related contingent features been triggered, was $3 million.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, accounts receivable, loan receivables, derivative instruments, accounts payable and debt. The carrying value for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, loans receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of our debt is estimated based on recently executed transactions and market price quotations. These inputs are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value and estimated fair value of our debt at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was as follows:



	June 30, 2014		December 31, 2013
Carrying value	$	3,239,722	$	3,346,295
Fair value	$	3,475,702	$	3,539,022

8. Restructuring Charges

Activity in our restructuring reserves for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was as follows:

The majority of the remaining restructuring reserves are expected to be paid over the next 12-24 months. Due to certain international labor laws and long-term lease agreements, some payments will extend beyond 24 months. We expect to fund these payments from cash flows from operations.

9. Debt

Debt consisted of the following:



		June 30, 2014		December 31, 2013
Term loans		$	130,000	$	230,000

Current portion		274,879		—
Long-term debt		$	2,964,843	$	3,346,295

During the first quarter of 2014, we completed a cash tender offer (the Tender Offer) for a portion of the 5.75% Notes due 2017 and the 5.25% Notes due 2037 (the Subject Notes). Holders who validly tendered their notes received the principal amount of the notes tendered, all accrued and unpaid interest and a premium amount. An aggregate $500 million of the Subject Notes were tendered. We incurred expenses of $62 million, consisting of the call premium, the write-off of unamortized costs and bank transaction fees. These expenses are included in other expense in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

During the first quarter of 2014, we issued $500 million of 4.625% fixed rate 10-year notes. Interest is payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing September 15, 2014. The notes mature in March 2024, but may be redeemed, at any time, in whole or in part, at our option. If the notes are redeemed prior to December 15, 2023, the redemption price will be equal to the sum of 100% of the principal amount, accrued and unpaid interest and a make-whole payment. Net proceeds from the issuance of the notes were $493 million. The net proceeds were used to fund the Tender Offer.

During the second quarter of 2014, we repaid $100 million of the outstanding term loans.

Other consists of the unamortized net proceeds received from the unwinding of interest rate swaps, debt discounts and premiums and the mark-to-market adjustment of interest rate swaps, if applicable.

There were no commercial paper borrowings through June 30, 2014.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we are routinely defendants in, or party to a number of pending and threatened legal actions. These may involve litigation by or against us relating to, among other things, contractual rights under vendor, insurance or other contracts; intellectual property or patent rights; equipment, service, payment or other disputes with customers; or disputes with employees. Some of these actions may be brought as a purported class action on behalf of a purported class of employees, customers or others. In management's opinion, the potential liability, if any, that may result from these actions, either individually or collectively, is not reasonably expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, as litigation is inherently unpredictable, there can be no assurances in this regard.

In December 2013, we received a Civil Investigative Demand (CID) from the Department of Justice (DOJ) pursuant to the False Claims Act requesting documents and information relating to compliance with certain postal regulatory requirements in our Presort Services business. We had previously provided information to the DOJ in response to letter requests and continue to provide information in response to the CID and other requests from the DOJ. Given the current stage of this inquiry, we cannot provide an estimate of any possible losses or range of loss and we cannot yet predict the ultimate outcome of this matter or its impact, if any, on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

11. Noncontrolling Interests (Preferred Stockholders’ Equity in Subsidiaries)

Pitney Bowes International Holdings, Inc. (PBIH), a subsidiary, has 300,000 shares, or $300 million, of outstanding perpetual voting preferred stock (the Preferred Stock) held by certain institutional investors. The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled as a group to 25% of the combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of PBIH. All outstanding common stock of PBIH, representing the remaining 75% of the combined voting power of all classes of capital stock, is owned directly or indirectly by the company. The Preferred Stock is entitled to cumulative dividends at a rate of 6.125% through 2016 after which it becomes callable and, if it remains outstanding, will yield a dividend that increases by 50% every six months thereafter. No dividends were in arrears at June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013. There was no change in the carrying value of noncontrolling interests during the period ended June 30, 2014 or the year ended December 31, 2013.

Nonpension Postretirement Benefit Plans

The components of net periodic benefit cost for nonpension postretirement benefit plans were as follows:



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2014		2013		2014		2013
Service cost	$	697	$	1,014	$	1,425	$	2,031

Net periodic benefit cost	$	4,719	$	5,924	$	9,471	$	11,857

Contributions for benefit payments for nonpension postretirement benefit plans were $12 million and $16 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

15. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 33.5% and 22.3%, respectively, and the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 28.2% and 22.0%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 includes a benefit of $6 million from the resolution of tax examinations and an incremental tax benefit associated with the early extinguishment of debt. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 includes tax benefits of $7 million related to one-time tax planning initiatives and $4 million from the adjustment of non-U.S. tax accounts. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 also includes a benefit of $4 million from the retroactive effect of 2013 U.S. tax legislation.

During 2014, we determined that certain pre-2009 tax deductions associated with software development expenditures had not been deducted on our tax returns, the expenditures could be claimed on our current year return and our deferred tax liability was overstated. We assessed the materiality of this item on previously issued financial statements and concluded that it was not material to any annual or interim period. However, due to the impact of this error on the current year consolidated financial statements, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet has been revised for the earliest period presented to increase opening retained earnings by $17 million (see Note 12) and decrease our tax liabilities.

As is the case with other large corporations, our tax returns are examined each year by tax authorities in the U.S., other countries and local jurisdictions in which we have operations. Except for issues arising out of certain partnership investments, the IRS examinations of tax years prior to 2009 are closed to audit. Other than the pending application of legal principles to specific issues arising in earlier years, only post-2007 Canadian tax years are subject to examination. Other significant tax filings subject to examination include various post-2004 U.S. state and local, post-2007 German, and post-2011 French and U.K. tax filings. We have other less significant tax filings currently under examination or subject to examination.

In August 2012, the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit overturned a prior Tax Court decision and ruled in favor of the IRS and adverse to the Historic Boardwalk Hall LLC, a partnership in which we had made an investment in the year 2000. In January 2014, the Tax Court entered an order to implement rulings of the Third Circuit. Under the terms of the partnership agreement, we are indemnified against any payments we may be required to make. However, the potential for a difference in the timing of payments which may be due to taxing authorities, and the timing of receipts due to us under the partnership agreement, may cause fluctuations in our cash flows in future periods. Further, if we do not recover under the indemnification provisions of the partnership agreement, the amount of tax and interest due as a result of this matter could be as much as $100 million.

Overview

Second Quarter 2014 Results

For the second quarter of 2014, revenue increased 1% to $958 million compared to $951 million in the second quarter of 2013. Business services revenue increased 28% due to continued growth from our cross-border parcel delivery solutions and software revenue increased 9% due to growth in licensing revenue. Supplies revenue increased 7% primarily due to higher sales in the mailing business driven by favorable pricing and moderating declines in meter populations and in Production Mail due to the growing base of installed production print equipment. Offsetting these increases was a 15% decrease in equipment sales, driven primarily by strong prior year sales of large inserting and production print equipment, and a decline in mailing equipment sales in North America due to the initial transition of certain accounts during the early part of the quarter as we accelerated the implementation of our go-to-market channel shift strategy. Rentals revenue decreased 5% primarily due to lower installed meters in North America and financing revenue decreased 5% primarily due to a declining finance receivable portfolio.

Income from continuing operations increased to $92 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $85 million in the second quarter of 2013 primarily due to the increase in revenue and lower selling, general and administrative expenses, restructuring charges and interest, partially offset by a higher effective tax rate due to the favorable resolution of outstanding tax issues in the prior year. Earnings per diluted share from continuing operations were $0.43 for the second quarter of 2014 and $0.39 for the second quarter of 2013.

On April 15, 2014, Pitney Bowes of Canada Ltd. (PB Canada) completed the sale of its Document Imaging Solutions (DIS) business, which consisted of hardware (copiers and printers), document management software solutions and the related lease portfolio to Konica Minolta Business Solutions (Canada) Ltd. (Konica Minolta) and a business equipment leasing services provider in two separate transactions. The operating results for DIS, originally reported in the North America Mailing segment, have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. PB Canada and Konica Minolta also entered into a strategic alliance whereby Konica Minolta will represent PB Canada’s mailing business in certain territories in Canada.

Outlook

We continue to focus on three critical areas: stabilizing the mailing business, achieving operational excellence and driving growth in our Digital Commerce Solutions segment.

Within the Small & Medium Business Solutions group, we expect revenue and profit growth to continue to be challenged by the decline in physical mail volumes. However, we anticipate revenue and profit trends will show continued improvement in 2014, due in part to the implementation of the "go-to-market" strategy in North America and Europe. Our go-to-market strategy provides our clients broader access to products, services and solutions through direct sales, distributors and inside sales channels, including web-based and phone sales. In addition, certain postal agencies have implemented discounts for postage meter users, which has enhanced the value proposition of meter usage and helped further stabilize recurring stream revenues. Within our international mailing markets, our meter population continues to decline at a slower rate than the overall market, resulting in continued improvement in recurring revenue trends.

Within the Enterprise Business Solutions group, we expect demand for our production mail inserter and sortation equipment and high-speed production print equipment to continue. Within our Presort Services segment, we expect increasing revenue due to workshare improvements and new sales opportunities.

In our Digital Commerce Solutions segment, we anticipate growth to be driven by continued demand for our ecommerce cross-border parcel management solutions, and our location intelligence and customer engagement software solutions.

During the first quarter of 2014, we began work on the initial phases of a new global ERP system. The implementation of the ERP system will occur in stages and is anticipated to be a multi-year process. We will make a significant investment and incur incremental expenses over the course of the implementation of this system. In 2014, we anticipate these expenses could approximate $0.10 per diluted share. Through June 30, 2014, we have incurred incremental expenses of $9 million, or $0.03 per diluted share. The ERP system is expected to provide operating cost savings through the elimination of redundant systems and strategic efficiencies through the use of a standardized, integrated system.

Our growth initiatives continue to focus on leveraging our expertise in physical communications with our expanding capabilities in digital and hybrid communications and developing products, software, services and solutions that help our clients grow their businesses by more effectively communicating with their customers.

Equipment sales

Equipment sales revenue decreased 15% in the quarter to $192 million and 10% in the year-to-date period to $381 million, compared to the same periods in 2013. These decreases were primarily driven by strong sales in 2013 of large inserting and production print equipment. Revenue from these transactions was $24 million in the prior year quarter and $28 million in the prior year-to-date period. The remaining decrease was due to lower mailing equipment sales in North America due to the initial transition of certain accounts in the early part of the quarter as we accelerated the implementation of our go-to-market channel shift strategy. Cost of equipment sales as a percentage of revenue for the quarter and year-to-date period decreased to 46.4% and 45.0%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the decline in sales of production printers, which have a lower margin relative to other products.

Supplies

Supplies revenue increased 7% in the quarter to $76 million and 8% in the year-to-date period to $156 million, compared to the same periods in 2013. These increases were primarily due to targeted outreach to customers, favorable pricing, the growing base of installed production print equipment and the stabilization of meter population trends in our international markets. Cost of supplies as a percentage of revenue for the quarter and year-to-date periods decreased to 30.8% and 30.6%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to improved margins on supplies sales from favorable pricing and expense reductions resulting from the go-to-market strategy.

Software

Software revenue increased 9% in the quarter to $109 million and 7% in the year-to-date period to $201 million, compared to the same periods in 2013, primarily due to higher licensing revenue in North America and Asia-Pacific. Cost of software as a percentage of revenue

for the quarter and year-to-date periods increased to 30.7% and 31.7%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to investments in the specialization of the software sales channel and higher production costs.

Rentals

Rentals revenue decreased 5% in the quarter to $122 million and 5% in the year-to-date period to $246 million, compared to the same periods in 2013, primarily due to a decline in the number of installed meters in North America. Cost of rentals as a percentage of revenue for the quarter and year-to-date periods increased over the prior year periods primarily due to a higher proportion of fixed costs as a percentage of revenue.

Financing

Financing revenue decreased 5% in the quarter to $108 million and 4% in the year-to-date period to $218 million, compared to the same periods in 2013, primarily due to a declining finance receivable portfolio. Financing interest expense as a percentage of revenue for the quarter and year-to-date periods increased to 19.0% and 18.4%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, due to higher effective interest rates. In computing our financing interest expense, which represents our cost of borrowing associated with the generation of financing revenue, we assume a 10:1 leveraging ratio of debt to equity and apply our overall effective interest rate to the average outstanding finance receivables.

Support Services

Support services revenue decreased 1% in the quarter to $158 million and 2% in the year-to-date period to $316 million, compared to the same periods in 2013, primarily due to a decline in equipment maintenance revenue in North America resulting from fewer mailing machines in service. Cost of support services as a percentage of revenue for the quarter and year-to-date periods decreased to 61.1% and 61.8%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods primarily due to continued focus on expense reductions and productivity initiatives.

Business Services

Business services revenue increased 28% in the quarter to $193 million and 27% in the year-to-date period to $379 million, compared to the same periods in 2013. These increases were driven by revenue growth from our cross-border parcel delivery solutions, higher revenue in our Presort Services operations due to improved qualification for postal rate discounts and higher revenue from our direct marketing services due to new business development. Cost of business services as a percentage of revenue for the quarter and year-to-date periods decreased to 69.8% and 69.7%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The margin improvement is primarily due to the higher revenue from our cross-border parcel delivery solutions and improved operating leverage, which offset fixed costs and continued investments in ecommerce technology.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A)

SG&A expense decreased 4% in the quarter to $338 million and 2% in the year-to-date period to $690 million, compared to the same periods in 2013. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expense declined to 35.3% and 36.4% for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, compared to 37.2% and 37.9%, for the prior year quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. The decline in overall SG&A expense was driven primarily by lower employee-related costs of $16 million and $18 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, as a result of our focus on operational excellence and the benefits of productivity initiatives, and lower depreciation and amortization expense of $5 million and $9 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. These declines were partially offset by expenses of $4 million and $9 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, related to the new ERP implementation.

Restructuring charges

In 2013, we initiated actions designed to enhance our responsiveness to changing market conditions, further streamline our business operations, reduce our cost structure and create long-term flexibility to invest in growth. We anticipate that these primarily cash related actions will result in restructuring charges in the range of $75 to $125 million, which will be recognized as specific initiatives are approved and implemented, and annualized pre-tax benefits of $100 to $125 million, net of investments. We expect to reach this benefit run rate by 2015. Through June 30, 2014, aggregate restructuring charges of $91 million have been recorded under this initiative.

Restructuring charges, net, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 were $8 million and $18 million, respectively, compared to $19 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. Also, see Note 8 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other expense

Other expense of $62 million and $25 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, consists of the costs associated with the early redemption of debt. See Liquidity and Capital Resources - Financings and Capitalization for a detailed discussion.

Income taxes

See Note 15 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Discontinued operations

Discontinued operations includes the worldwide Management Services business (PBMS), International Mailing Services business (IMS) and Nordic furniture business, which were sold during 2013 and DIS, which was sold in April 2014. The operations of DIS exclude certain corporate and indirect business expenses, primarily service, sales and infrastructure support expenses, which were historically allocated to this business. The costs previously allocated to DIS and excluded from discontinued operations were $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, and $4 million and $8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. In addition, in computing interest expense related to DIS, we assumed a 10:1 leverage ratio of debt to equity and applied the overall effective interest rate to the DIS average outstanding finance receivables. Also see Note 5 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Preferred stock dividends of subsidiaries attributable to noncontrolling interests

Business segment results

During 2013, we sold certain businesses and realigned our segment reporting to reflect the clients we serve, the solutions we offer, and how we manage, review, analyze and measure our operations. Further, in the first quarter of 2014, we reclassified our shipping solutions operations from the Small & Medium Business Solutions segment group to the Digital Commerce Solutions segment and classified the DIS business, originally included in the North America Mailing segment, as discontinued operations. The prior year segment results in the tables below have been recast to exclude those businesses sold and to conform to our current segment presentation. The principal products and services of each of our reportable segments are as follows:

Small & Medium Business Solutions:

Enterprise Business Solutions:

Presort Services: Includes revenue and related expenses from presort mail services for our large enterprise clients to qualify large mail volumes for postal worksharing discounts.

Small & Medium Business Solutions

Small & Medium Business Solutions revenue decreased 3% in the quarter to $524 million and 2% in the year-to-date period to $1,059 million, compared to the same periods in 2013. However, segment EBIT increased 3% in the quarter to $183 million and 7% in the year-to-date period to $368 million, compared to the same periods in 2013. Foreign currency translation had a less than 1% impact on revenue and EBIT for the quarter and year-to-date periods.

North America Mailing

Revenue for the North America Mailing segment decreased 5% in the quarter to $371 million and 4% in the year-to-date period to $752 million, compared to the prior year periods. Equipment sales decreased 9% in the quarter and 5% in the year-to-date period due to the initial transition of certain accounts in the early part of the quarter as we accelerated the implementation of our go-to-market channel shift strategy. Recurring revenues, comprised of supplies, rentals and financing revenue, declined 4% in the quarter and 3% in the year-to-date period, compared to the prior year periods. Within recurring revenues, rentals revenue declined 6% for the quarter and 5% for the year-to-date period, due to the continuing decline in the number of installed meters in service and financing revenue declined 6% for the quarter and 5% for the year-to-date period, due to a declining finance receivable portfolio. These declines were partially offset by an increase in supply sales of 7% in the quarter and 8% in the year-to-date period, due to sales efficiencies and favorable pricing.

EBIT for the quarter was relatively unchanged from the prior year quarter at $157 million, and increased 4% in the year-to-date period to $317 million, compared to the prior year period. EBIT margin for the quarter and year-to-date period improved to 42.2% compared to 40.2% in the prior year quarter and 39.2% in the prior year-to-date period primarily due to the benefits of our go-to-market strategy and ongoing cost reduction and cost control initiatives.

International Mailing

Revenue for the International Mailing segment increased 2% in the quarter to $153 million and 1% in the year-to-date period to $307 million, compared to the prior year periods. However, foreign currency translation had a 4% and 2% positive impact on revenue in the quarter and year-to-date period, respectively. Excluding the impacts of foreign currency translation, equipment sales declined 3% in the quarter and 2% in the year-to-date period primarily due to declines in France caused by slowing demand and increased competition. Rental revenue for the quarter and year-to-date periods, excluding the impacts of foreign currency translation, declined 5% and 6%, respectively, primarily due to lower rentals in France, also due to slowing demand and increased competition. EBIT increased 32% in the quarter to $26 million and 37% in the year-to-date period to $51 million, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to ongoing cost reduction and cost control initiatives. Foreign currency translation had a 6% and 5% positive impact on EBIT for the quarter and year-to-date period, respectively.

Enterprise Business Solutions

Enterprise Business Solutions revenue decreased 8% in the quarter to $223 million and 4% in the year-to-date period to $445 million, compared to the prior year periods, and EBIT decreased 11% in the quarter to $33 million and 5% in the year-to-date period to $65 million, compared to the prior year periods. Foreign currency translation had a less than 1% impact on revenue and EBIT for the quarter and year-to-date periods.

Production Mail

Revenue for the Production Mail segment decreased 17% in the quarter to $112 million and 11% in the year-to-date period to $217 million, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to a decline in equipment sales driven by strong sales in 2013 of large inserting and production print equipment. Revenue from these transactions was $24 million in the prior year quarter and $28 million in the prior year-to-date period. Slightly offsetting this decrease was higher supplies sales due to the growing base of installed production printers. EBIT decreased 33% in the quarter to $11 million and 23% in the year-to-date period to $18 million, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the decline in revenue.

Presort Services

Revenue for the Presort Services segment increased 4% in the quarter to $111 million and 5% in the year-to-date period to $228 million, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to improved qualification for postal rate discounts. EBIT increased 5% in the quarter to $22 million and 4% in the year-to-date period to $46 million, compared to the prior year periods primarily due to the increase in revenue and improved operational productivity. EBIT for the year-to-date period includes costs associated with the consolidation of two processing facilities.

Digital Commerce Solutions

Revenue for the Digital Commerce Solutions segment increased 27% in the quarter to $211 million and 25% in the year-to-date period to $392 million, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to higher revenue from our ecommerce cross-border parcel delivery solution due to increased demand, higher software licensing revenue, primarily due to the specialization of the software sales channel, and higher revenue from our direct marketing services due to new business development. EBIT increased 17% in the quarter to $18 million and 82% in the year-to-date period to $27 million, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the increase in revenue and improved operating leverage which offset fixed costs and continued investments in ecommerce technology.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We believe that existing cash and investments, cash generated from operations and borrowing capacity under our commercial paper program are currently sufficient to support our cash needs, including discretionary uses such as capital investments, dividends and share repurchases. Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $1,030 million at June 30, 2014 and $939 million at December 31, 2013.

Cash Flow Summary

Net cash provided by operating activities was $280 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $279 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Cash flow from operations through June 30, 2014 benefited from lower tax payments and improvements in working capital partially offset by higher cash payments related to debt extinguishment and restructuring. The improvement in working capital was driven by the timing of payments for accounts payables and accrued liabilities partially offset by changes in inventory and collections of finance receivables. During 2013, we implemented several cash management initiatives to improve working capital and cash flows from operations, including improving supply chain management. As a result, inventory purchases were significantly lower in the prior year as we strived to reduce our inventory levels. Collections of finance receivables were lower during the six months ended June 30, 2014 than in the prior year mainly due to the declining finance receivable portfolio and timing of collections.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $12 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to a cash outflow of $86 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Cash flow from investing activities in 2014 included proceeds of $101 million primarily from the sale of the DIS business. Net purchases, sales and maturities of investments for the six months ended June 30, 2014 resulted in an outflow of $15 million compared to an inflow of $15 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The variability in these cash flows was due to the timing of investments and lower withdrawals from customer reserve accounts relative to last year.

Net cash used in financing activities was $196 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $487 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. During 2014, we received cash proceeds of $493 million from the issuance of debt and repaid $600 million of existing debt. During 2013, we received cash proceeds of $412 million from the issuance of debt and repaid $780 million of existing debt. Cash flow from financing activities in 2014 was higher due to lower dividend payments. Dividend payments were $76 million ($0.375 per share) through June 30, 2014 compared to $113 million ($0.5625 per share) for the same period in the prior year. See Financings and Capitalization section below for further details.

Financings and Capitalization

We are a Well-Known Seasoned Issuer with the SEC, which allows us to issue debt securities, preferred stock, preference stock, common stock, purchase contracts, depositary shares, warrants and units in an expedited fashion. We have a commercial paper program that is an important source of liquidity for us and a committed credit facility of $1.0 billion to support our commercial paper issuances. The credit facility expires in April 2016. We have not drawn upon the credit facility. There were no commercial paper issuances during the quarter.

During 2014, we completed a cash tender offer (the 2014 Tender Offer) for a portion of the 5.75% Notes due 2017 and the 5.25% Notes due 2037 (the Subject Notes). Holders who validly tendered their notes received the principal amount, all accrued and unpaid interest and a premium amount. An aggregate $500 million of the Subject Notes were tendered. We incurred expenses of $62 million, consisting of the call premium, the write-off of unamortized costs and bank transaction fees. These expenses were recognized as other expense in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

During 2014, we also issued $500 million of 4.625% fixed rate 10-year notes. Interest is payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing September 15, 2014. The notes mature in March 2024, but may be redeemed, at any time, in whole or in part, at our option. If the notes are redeemed prior to December 15, 2023, the redemption price will be equal to the sum of 100% of the principal amount, accrued and unpaid interest and a make-whole payment. Net proceeds from the issuance of the notes were $493 million. The net proceeds were used to fund the 2014 Tender Offer.

During the second quarter of 2014, we repaid $100 million of the outstanding Term Loans.

Through June 2013, we redeemed $780 million of debt consisting of $405 million of debt redeemed under a cash tender offer (the 2013 Tender Offer) and $375 million of 3.875% notes that matured. Under the 2013 Tender Offer, a portion of the 4.875% Notes due 2014, 5.0% Notes due 2015, and 4.75% Notes due 2016 were redeemed. Holders who validly tendered their notes received the principal amount, all accrued and unpaid interest and a premium amount. We incurred expenses of $25 million in connection with the 2013 Tender Offer, consisting primarily of the premium payment. These expenses were recognized as other expense in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). We also received $5 million from the unwind of certain interest rate swaps.

Through June 2013, we issued $425 million of 30-year notes with a fixed-rate of 6.7%. The notes mature in 2043, but may be redeemed, at our option, in whole or in part, at any time on or after March 7, 2018 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The net proceeds of $412 million were used to fund the 2013 Tender Offer.

Through June 30, 2014, we spent a total of $15 million on the implementation of a new global ERP system. Total cash outlays for the remainder of the year for this system are expected to be $45 to $65 million.

Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries were $593 million at June 30, 2014 and $392 million at December 31, 2013. Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries are generally used to support the liquidity needs of these subsidiaries. Most of these amounts could be repatriated to the U.S. but would be subject to additional taxes. Repatriation of some foreign balances is restricted by local laws.

Each quarter, our Board of Directors considers our recent and projected earnings and other capital needs and priorities in deciding whether to approve the amount and payment of a dividend. There are no material restrictions on our ability to declare dividends.
