PART I.
Item 1. Business
General
As used herein, the term Timken or the Company refers to The Timken Company and its
subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires. The Timken Company develops, manufactures,
markets and sells products for friction management and power transmission, alloy steels and steel
components.
The Company was founded in 1899 by Henry Timken, who received two patents on the design of a
tapered roller bearing. Timken grew to become the worlds largest manufacturer of tapered roller
bearings. Over the years, the Company has expanded its breadth of bearing products beyond tapered
roller bearings to include cylindrical, spherical, needle and precision ball bearings. In addition
to bearings, Timken further broadened its portfolio to include a wide array of friction management
products and maintenance services to improve the operation of customers machinery and equipment,
such as lubricants, seals, bearing maintenance tools and condition-monitoring equipment. The
Company also manufactures power transmission components and assemblies, as well as systems such as
helicopter transmissions, high-quality alloy steel, bars and tubing to custom specifications to
meet demanding performance requirements and finished and semi-finished steel components.
The Companys strategy balances corporate aspirations for sustained growth and a determination to
optimize the Companys existing portfolio of business, thereby continuing to generate excellent
profits and cash flows.
Timkens global footprint consists of 52 manufacturing facilities, nine technology and engineering
centers, 14 distribution centers and warehouses and nearly 20,000 employees. Timken operates in 27
countries and territories.
Industry Segments
The Company operates under two business groups: the Steel Group and the Bearings and Power
Transmission Group. The Bearings and Power Transmission Group is composed of three operating
segments: (1) Mobile Industries; (2) Process Industries; and (3) Aerospace and Defense. These
three operating segments and the Steel Group comprise the Companys four reportable segments.
Financial information for the segments is discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements.
Description of types of products and services from which each reportable segment derives its
revenues
The Companys reportable segments are business units that target different industry segments or types of product. Each reportable segment is managed separately because of the need to specifically address customer needs in these different industries.
The Companys reportable segments are business units that target different industry segments or types of product. Each reportable segment is managed separately because of the need to specifically address customer needs in these different industries.
The Mobile Industries segment provides bearings, power transmission components and related products
and services to original equipment manufacturers and suppliers building agricultural, construction
and mining equipment, passenger cars, light trucks, medium and heavy-duty trucks, rail cars and
locomotives, as well as to automotive aftermarket and heavy-duty truck distributors.
The Process Industries segment offers bearings, power transmission components and related products
and services, working side by side with original equipment manufacturers of power transmission,
energy and heavy industries machinery and equipment. This includes rolling mills, cement and
aggregate processing equipment, paper mills, sawmills, printing presses, cranes, hoists,
drawbridges, wind energy turbines, gear drives, drilling equipment, coal conveyors, coal crushers
and food processing equipment. The segment also serves aftermarket sales through its global
network of authorized industrial distributors.
The Aerospace and Defense segment manufactures bearings, helicopter transmission systems, rotor
head assemblies, turbine engine components, gears and other precision flight-critical components
for commercial and military aviation applications and provides aftermarket services, including
repair and overhaul of engines, transmissions and fuel controls, as well as aerospace bearing
repair and component reconditioning. Additionally, this segment manufactures precision bearings,
higher-level assemblies and sensors for equipment manufacturers of health and positioning control
equipment.
The Steel segment produces more than 450 grades of carbon and alloy steel, which are sold in both
solid and tubular sections in a variety of chemistries, lengths and finishes. The groups
metallurgical expertise and operational capabilities result in solutions for the automotive,
industrial and energy sectors. Timken® specialty steels feature prominently in a wide variety of
end products including oil country drill pipe, bits and collars; gears, hubs, axles, crankshafts
and connecting rods; bearing races and rolling elements, and bushings, fuel injectors and wind
energy shafts.

Measurement of segment profit or loss and segment assets
The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on return on capital and profitable growth. The primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment is adjusted EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes, excluding special items such as impairment and restructuring charges, rationalization and integration costs, one-time gains or losses on sales of assets, allocated receipts received or payments made under the Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA), gains and losses on the dissolution of a subsidiary and other items similar in nature). The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Intersegment sales and transfers are recorded at values based on market prices, which create intercompany profit on intersegment sales or transfers that is eliminated in consolidation.

Factors used by management to identify the enterprises reportable segments
The Company reports net sales by geographic area in a manner that is more reflective of how the Company operates its segments, which is by the destination of net sales. Long-lived assets by geographic area are reported by the location of the subsidiary.

Export sales from the United States and Canada are less than 10% of revenue. The Companys
Bearings and Power Transmission Group has historically participated in the global bearing industry
while the Steel Group has concentrated primarily on U.S. customers.
Timkens non-U.S. operations are subject to normal international business risks not generally
applicable to domestic business. These risks include currency fluctuation, changes in tariff
restrictions, difficulties in establishing and maintaining relationships with local distributors
and dealers, import and export licensing requirements, difficulties in staffing and managing
geographically diverse operations and restrictive regulations by foreign governments, including
price and exchange controls.

Products
The Timken Company manufactures and manages global supply chains for two core product lines:
anti-friction bearings and related products and steel products. Differentiation in these two
product lines is achieved by either: (1) bearing type or steel type or (2) differentiation in the
applications of bearings and steel.
Tapered Roller Bearings. The tapered roller bearing is Timkens principal product in the
anti-friction industry segment. It consists of four components: (1) the cone or inner race; (2)
the cup or outer race; (3) the tapered rollers, which roll between the cup and cone; and (4) the
cage, which serves as a retainer and maintains proper spacing between the rollers. Timken
manufactures or purchases these four components and then sells them in a wide variety of
configurations and sizes.
The tapered rollers permit ready absorption of both radial and axial load combinations. For this
reason, tapered roller bearings are particularly well-adapted to reducing friction where shafts,
gears or wheels are used. The uses for tapered roller bearings are diverse and include
applications on passenger cars, light and heavy trucks and trains, as well as a wide variety of
industrial applications, ranging from very small gear drives to bearings over two meters in
diameter for wind energy machines. A number of applications utilize bearings with sensors to
measure parameters such as speed, load, temperature or overall bearing condition.
Selection or development of bearings for customers applications and demand for high reliability
requires engineering and sophisticated analytical techniques. This design, combined with high
precision tolerances, proprietary internal geometry and premium quality material, provides Timken
bearings with high load-carrying capacity, excellent friction-reducing qualities and long service
lives.
Precision Cylindrical and Ball Bearings. Timkens aerospace and super precision facilities produce
high-performance ball and cylindrical bearings for ultra high-speed and/or high-accuracy
applications in the aerospace, medical and dental, computer and other industries. These bearings
utilize ball and straight rolling elements and are in the super precision end of the general ball
and straight roller bearing product range in the bearing industry. A majority of Timkens
aerospace and super precision bearings products are custom-designed bearings and spindle
assemblies. They often involve specialized materials and coatings for use in applications that
subject the bearings to extreme operating conditions of speed and temperature.
Spherical and Cylindrical Bearings. Timken produces spherical and cylindrical roller bearings for
large gear drives, rolling mills and other process industry and infrastructure development
applications. These products are sold worldwide to original equipment manufacturers and industrial
distributors serving major industries, including construction and mining, natural resources,
defense, pulp and paper production, rolling mills and general industrial goods. The same rigorous
analysis and development apply to these products as well.
Services. A small part of the business involves providing bearing reconditioning services for
industrial and railroad customers, both domestically and internationally. Other services include
maintenance and rework services for large industrial equipment used in metal mills and energy
sectors. These services accounted for less than 5% of the Companys net sales for the year ended
December 31, 2010.
Aerospace Products and Services. Through strategic acquisitions and ongoing product
development, Timken has expanded its portfolio of parts, systems and services for the aerospace
market, where it is used in helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft for the military and commercial
aviation. Timken provides design, manufacture and testing for a wide variety of power transmission
and drive train components including bearings, transmissions, gears and rotor head components.
Other parts include airfoils (such as blades, vanes, rotors and diffusers), nozzles and other
precision flight-critical components.
Timken also supplies comprehensive aftermarket maintenance, repair and overhaul services and parts
for gas turbine engines, gearboxes and accessory systems in helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft.
Services range from aerospace bearing repair and component reconditioning to the complete overhaul
of engines, transmissions and fuel controls.
Steel. Steel products are special bar quality (SBQ) and include steels of low and intermediate
alloy, as well as some carbon grades. These steel products are available in a wide range of solid
bars and tubular sections with a variety of lengths and finishes. These steel products are used in
a wide array of applications, including bearings, engine crankshafts, automotive transmissions, oil
drilling components and other demanding applications, where mechanical power transmission is
critical to the end customer.
Timken also produces custom-made steel products, including steel components for automotive and
industrial customers. Steel components have provided the Company with the opportunity to further
expand its market for tubing and capture higher value-added steel sales by streamlining customer
supply chains. It also enables Timkens traditional tubing customers in the automotive and bearing
industries to take advantage of ready-to-finish components that cost less than other alternatives.
Customization of products is an important component of the Companys steel business where
mechanical power transmission is critical to the end customer.

Sales and Distribution
Timkens products in the Bearings and Power Transmission Group are sold principally by its own
internal sales organizations. A portion of the Process Industries segments sales are made through
authorized distributors.
Traditionally, a main focus of the Companys sales strategy has consisted of collaborative projects
with customers. For this reason, the Companys sales forces are primarily located in close
proximity to its customers rather than at production sites. In some instances, the sales forces
are located inside customer facilities. The Companys sales force is highly-trained and
knowledgeable regarding all friction management products, and employees assist customers during the
development and implementation phases and provide ongoing support.
The Company has a joint venture in North America focused on joint logistics and e-business
services. This alliance is called CoLinx, LLC and includes five equity members: Timken, SKF
Group, the Schaeffler Group, Rockwell Automation and Gates Corporation. The e-business service is
focused on information and business services for authorized distributors in the Process Industries
segment. The Company also has another e-business joint venture which focuses on information and
business services for authorized industrial distributors in Europe, Latin America and Asia. This
alliance, which Timken founded with SKF Group, Sandvik AB, INA and Reliance, is called Endorsia.com
International AB.
Timkens steel products are sold principally by its own sales organization. Most orders are
customized to satisfy customer-specific applications and are shipped directly to customers from
Timkens steel manufacturing plants. Less than approximately 10% of Timkens Steel Group net sales
are intersegment sales. In addition, sales are made to other anti-friction bearing companies and to
the automotive and truck, forging, construction, industrial equipment, oil and gas drilling and
aircraft industries and to steel service centers.
Timken has entered into individually negotiated contracts with some of its customers in its
Bearings and Power Transmission Group and Steel Group. These contracts may extend for one or more
years and, if a price is fixed for any period extending beyond current shipments, customarily
include a commitment by the customer to purchase a designated percentage of its requirements from
Timken. Timken does not believe that there is any significant loss of earnings risk associated
with any given contract.
Competition
The anti-friction bearing business is highly competitive in every country in which Timken sells
products. Timken competes primarily based on price, quality, timeliness of delivery, product
design and the ability to provide engineering support and service on a global basis. The Company
competes with domestic manufacturers and many foreign manufacturers of anti-friction bearings,
including SKF Group, Schaeffler Group, NTN Corporation, JTEKT Corporation and NSK Ltd.
Competition within the steel industry, both domestically and globally, is intense and is expected
to remain so. Principal bar competitors include foreign-owned domestic producers MacSteel
(wholly-owned by Brazilian steelmaker Gerdau, S.A), Republic Engineered Products (a unit of Mexican
steel producer ICH) and Mittal Steel USA (a unit of Luxembourg-based ArcelorMittal Steel S.A.),
along with domestic steel producers Steel Dynamics and Nucor Corporation. Seamless tubing
competitors include foreign-owned domestic producers ArcelorMittal Tubular Products, V&M Star Tubes
(a unit of Vallourec, S.A.), and Tenaris, S.A. Additionally, Timken competes with a wide variety
of offshore producers of both bars and tubes, including Sanyo Special Steel and Ovako. Timken also
provides value-added steel products to its customers in the energy, industrial and automotive
sectors. Competitors within the value-added segment include Linamar, Jernberg, Formflo and Curtis
Screw Company.
Maintaining high standards of product quality and reliability, while keeping production costs
competitive, is essential to Timkens ability to compete with domestic and foreign manufacturers in
both the anti-friction bearing and steel businesses.

Trade Law Enforcement
The U.S. government has six antidumping duty orders in effect covering ball bearings from France,
Germany, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom and taper roller bearings from China. The Company is
a producer of these products in the United States. The U.S. government determined in August 2006
that each of these six antidumping duty orders should remain in effect for an additional five
years, after which the orders could be reviewed again.
Continued
Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA)
The CDSOA provides for distribution of monies collected by U.S. Customs from antidumping cases to
qualifying domestic producers where the domestic producers have continued to invest in their
technology, equipment and people. The Company reported CDSOA receipts, net of expenses, of $2.0
million, $3.6 million and $10.2 million in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
In September 2002, the World Trade Organization (WTO) ruled that CDSOA payments are not consistent
with international trade rules. In February 2006, U.S. legislation was enacted that would end
CDSOA distributions for dumped imports covered by antidumping duty orders entering the United
States after September 30, 2007. Instead, any such antidumping duties collected would remain with
the U.S. Treasury. This legislation would be expected to eventually reduce any distributions in
years beyond 2007, with distributions eventually ceasing. Several countries have objected that
this U.S. legislation is not consistent with WTO rulings, and have been granted retaliation rights
by the WTO, typically in the form of increased tariffs on some imported goods from the United
States. The European Union and Japan have been retaliating in this fashion against the operation
of U.S. law.
In 2006, the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) ruled, in two separate decisions, that the
procedure for determining recipients eligible to receive CDSOA distributions is unconstitutional.
In February 2009, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed both decisions of the
CIT. In December 2009, a plaintiff petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to hear a further appeal, but
the Supreme Court declined the petition, allowing the appellate court reversals to stand. There
are, however, several remaining constitutional challenges to the CDSOA law that are now before the
CIT. The Company is unable to determine, at this time, what the ultimate outcome of litigation
regarding CDSOA will be.
There are a number of factors that can affect whether the Company receives any CDSOA distributions
and the amount of such distributions in any given year. These factors include, among other things,
potential additional changes in the law, ongoing and potential additional legal challenges to the
law and the administrative operation of the law. Accordingly, the Company cannot reasonably
estimate the amount of CDSOA distributions it will receive in future years, if any. It is possible
that court rulings might prevent the Company from receiving any CDSOA distributions in 2011 and
beyond. Any reduction of CDSOA distributions would reduce the Companys earnings and cash flow.
Joint Ventures
Investments accounted for under the equity method were approximately $9.4 million and $9.5 million
at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Approximately $6.8 million of the $9.4 million at
December 31, 2010 was classified as assets held for sale and was reported in other current assets.
The remaining balance was reported in other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Approximately 94% of the Companys backlog at December 31, 2010 is scheduled for delivery in the
succeeding twelve months. Actual shipments are dependent upon ever-changing production schedules
of customers. Accordingly, Timken does not believe that its backlog data and comparisons thereof,
as of different dates, are reliable indicators of future sales or shipments.
Raw Materials
The principal raw materials used by Timken in steel manufacturing are scrap metal, nickel,
molybdenum and other alloys. The availability and costs of raw materials and energy resources are
subject to curtailment or change due to, among other things, new laws or regulations, changes in
global demand levels, suppliers allocations to other purchasers, interruptions in production by
suppliers, changes in exchange rates and prevailing price levels. For example, the weighted average
consumption cost of scrap metal increased 56.2% from 2007 to 2008, decreased 49.0% from 2008 to
2009 and increased 59.0% from 2009 to 2010.
The Company continues to expect that it will be able to pass a significant portion of cost
increases through to customers in the form of price increases or surcharges.
Disruptions in the supply of raw materials or energy resources could temporarily impair the
Companys ability to manufacture its products for its customers or require the Company to pay
higher prices in order to obtain these raw materials or energy resources from other sources, which
could affect the Companys revenues and profitability. Any increase in the costs for such raw
materials or energy resources could materially affect the Companys earnings. Timken believes that
the availability of raw materials and alloys is adequate for its needs, and, in general, it is not
dependent on any single source of supply.
Research
Timken operates a network of technology and engineering centers to support its global customers
with sites in North America, Europe and Asia. This network develops and delivers innovative
friction management and power transmission solutions and technical services. The largest technical
center is located in North Canton, Ohio, near Timkens world headquarters. Other sites in the
United States include Mesa, Arizona; Manchester, Connecticut; and Keene and Lebanon, New Hampshire.
Within Europe, the Company has technology facilities in Ploiesti, Romania; and Colmar France, and
in Asia, it operates technology and engineering facilities in Bangalore, India and Shanghai, China.
Expenditures for research, development and application amounted to approximately $49.9 million,
$50.0 million and $64.1 million in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Of these amounts,
approximately $1.6 million, $1.7 million and $5.1 million, respectively, were funded by others in
2010, 2009 and 2008.

Environmental Matters
The Company continues its efforts to protect the environment and comply with environmental
protection regulations. Additionally, it has invested in pollution control equipment and updated
plant operational practices. The Company is committed to implementing a documented environmental
management system worldwide and to becoming certified under the ISO 14001 standard where
appropriate to meet or exceed customer requirements. By the end of 2010, 18 of the Companys
plants had obtained ISO 14001 certification.
The Company believes it has established adequate reserves to cover its environmental expenses (See
Note 7 Contingencies in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional
detail) and has a well-established environmental compliance audit program, which includes a
proactive approach to bringing its domestic and international units to higher standards of
environmental performance. This program measures performance against applicable laws, as well as
standards that have been established for all units worldwide. It is difficult to assess the
possible effect of compliance with future requirements that differ from existing ones. As
previously reported, the Company is unsure of the future financial impact to the Company that could
result from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys (EPAs) final rules to tighten the National
Ambient Air Quality Standards for fine particulate and ozone. In addition, the Company is unsure
of the future financial impact that could result from the EPA instituting hourly ambient air
quality standards for sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide.
The Company is also unsure of the potential future financial impact that could result from possible
future legislation regulating emissions of greenhouse gases. If such legislation is enacted, the
Company could incur increased energy, environmental, capital expenditure and other costs to comply
with any new limitations on greenhouse gas emissions. Unless and until such legislation is enacted
and its terms are known, the Company cannot reasonably or reliably estimate its impact on the
financial condition, operating performance or ability to compete.
The Company and certain U.S. subsidiaries have been designated as potentially responsible parties
by the EPA for site investigation and remediation at certain sites under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), known as the Superfund, or state
laws similar to CERCLA. The claims for remediation have been asserted against numerous other
entities, which are believed to be financially solvent and are expected to fulfill their
proportionate share of the obligation.
Management believes any ultimate liability with respect to pending actions will not materially
affect the Companys operations, cash flows or consolidated financial position. The Company is also
conducting voluntary environmental investigation and/or remediation activities at a number of
current or former operating sites. Any liability with respect to such investigation and remediation
activities, in the aggregate, is not expected to be material to the operations or financial
position of the Company.
New laws and regulations, stricter enforcement of existing laws and regulations, the discovery of
previously unknown contamination or the imposition of new clean-up requirements may require the
Company to incur costs or become the basis for new or increased liabilities that could have a
material adverse effect on Timkens business, financial condition or results of operations.
Patents, Trademarks and Licenses
Timken owns a number of U.S. and foreign patents, trademarks and licenses relating to certain
products. While Timken regards these as important, it does not deem its business as a whole, or

Item 1A: Risk Factors
The following are certain risk factors that could affect our business, financial condition and
results of operations. The risks that are highlighted below are not the only ones that we face.
These risk factors should be considered in connection with evaluating forward-looking statements
contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K because these factors could cause our actual results
and financial condition to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements. If
any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of
operations could be negatively affected.
The bearing industry is highly competitive, and this competition results in significant pricing
pressure for our products that could affect our revenues and profitability.
The global bearing industry is highly competitive. We compete with domestic manufacturers and many
foreign manufacturers of anti-friction bearings, including SKF Group, Schaeffler Group, NTN
Corporation, JTEKT Corporation and NSK Ltd. The bearing industry is also capital intensive and
profitability is dependent on factors such as labor compensation and productivity and inventory
management, which are subject to risks that we may not be able to control. Due to the
competitiveness within the bearing industry, we may not be able to increase prices for our products
to cover increases in our costs and, in many cases, we may face pressure from our customers to
reduce prices, which could adversely affect our revenues and profitability. In addition, our
customers may choose to purchase products from one of our competitors rather than pay the prices we
seek for our products, which could adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
Competition and consolidation in the steel industry, together with potential global overcapacity,
could result in significant pricing pressure for our products.
Competition within the steel industry, both domestically and worldwide, is intense and is expected
to remain so. Global production overcapacity has occurred in the past and may reoccur in the
future, which would exert downward pressure on domestic steel prices and result in, at times, a
dramatic narrowing, or with many companies the elimination, of gross margins. High levels of steel
imports into the United States could exacerbate this pressure on domestic steel prices. In
addition, many of our competitors are continuously exploring and implementing strategies, including
acquisitions and the addition or repositioning of capacity, which focus on manufacturing higher
margin products that compete more directly with our steel products. These factors could lead to
significant downward pressure on prices for our steel products, which could have a material adverse
effect on our revenues and profitability.
Our business is capital intensive, and if there are downturns in the industries that we serve, we
may be forced to significantly curtail or suspend operations with respect to those industries,
which could result in our recording asset impairment charges or taking other measures that may
adversely affect our results of operations and profitability.
Our Bearing and Power Transmission and Steel Groups are capital intensive, and we devote a
significant amount of capital to certain industries. If there are downturns in the industries that
we serve, we may be forced to significantly curtail or suspend our operations with respect to those
industries, including laying-off employees, recording asset impairment charges and other measures,
which may adversely affect our results of operations and profitability.

Weakness in either global economic conditions or in any of the industries in which our customers
operate, as well as the cyclical nature of our customers businesses generally or sustained
uncertainty in financial markets, could adversely impact our revenues and profitability by reducing
demand and margins.
Our results of operations may be materially affected by the conditions in the global economy
generally and in global capital markets. The recent global economic downturn caused extreme
volatility in the capital markets and in the end markets in which our customers operate, which
negatively affected our revenues. Our revenues may also be negatively affected by changes in
customer demand, additional changes in the product mix and negative pricing pressure in the
industries in which we operate. Margins in those industries are highly sensitive to demand cycles,
and our customers in those industries historically have tended to delay large capital projects,
including expensive maintenance and upgrades, during economic downturns. As a result, our revenues
and earnings are impacted by overall levels of industrial production.
Our results of operations may be materially affected by the conditions in the global financial
markets. If an end user cannot obtain financing to purchase our products, either directly or
indirectly contained in machinery or equipment, demand for our products will be reduced, which
could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and earnings.
If a customer becomes insolvent or files for bankruptcy, our ability to recover accounts receivable
from that customer would be adversely affected and any payment we received during the preference
period prior to a bankruptcy filing may be potentially recoverable by the bankruptcy estate.
Furthermore, if certain of our customers liquidate in bankruptcy, we may incur impairment charges
relating to obsolete inventory and machinery and equipment. In addition, financial instability of
certain companies in the supply chain could disrupt production in any particular industry. A
disruption of production in any of the industries where we participate could have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition and earnings.
Any change in the operation of our raw material surcharge mechanisms, a raw material market index
or the availability or cost of raw materials and energy resources could materially affect our
revenues and earnings.
We require substantial amounts of raw materials, including scrap metal and alloys and natural gas
to operate our business. Many of our customer contracts contain surcharge pricing provisions. The
surcharges are tied to a widely-available market index for that specific raw material. In the
recent economic downturn, many of the widely-available raw material market indices experienced wide
fluctuations. Any change in a raw material market index could materially affect our revenues. Any
change in the relationship between the market indices and our underlying costs could materially
affect our earnings. Any change in our projected year-end input costs could materially affect our
LIFO inventory valuation method and earnings.
Moreover, future disruptions in the supply of our raw materials or energy resources could impair
our ability to manufacture our products for our customers or require us to pay higher prices in
order to obtain these raw materials or energy resources from other sources, and could thereby
affect our sales and profitability. Any increase in the prices for such raw materials or energy
resources could materially affect our costs and therefore our earnings.
Warranty, recall or product liability claims could materially adversely affect our earnings.
In our business, we are exposed to warranty and product liability claims. In addition, we may be
required to participate in the recall of a product. A successful warranty or product liability
claim against us, or a requirement that we participate in a product recall, could have a material
adverse effect on our earnings.
We may incur further impairment and restructuring charges that could materially affect our
profitability.
We have taken approximately $236 million in impairment and restructuring charges, during the last
five years, for the Canton bearing operations, Mobile Industries segment, Bearings and Power
Transmission Group and employment and other cost reduction initiatives. Changes in business or
economic conditions, or our business strategy, may result in additional restructuring programs and
may require us to take additional charges in the future, which could have a material adverse effect
on our earnings.

Table of Contents
Environmental regulations impose substantial costs and limitations on our operations and
environmental compliance may be more costly than we expect.
We are subject to the risk of substantial environmental liability and limitations on our operations
due to environmental laws and regulations. We are subject to various federal, state, local and
foreign environmental, health and safety laws and regulations concerning issues such as air
emissions, wastewater discharges, solid and hazardous waste handling and disposal and the
investigation and remediation of contamination. The risks of substantial costs and liabilities
related to compliance with these laws and regulations are an inherent part of our business, and
future conditions may develop, arise or be discovered that create substantial environmental
compliance or remediation liabilities and costs.
Compliance with environmental legislation and regulatory requirements may prove to be more limiting
and costly than we anticipate. New laws and regulations, including those which may relate to
emissions of greenhouse gases, stricter enforcement of existing laws and regulations, the discovery
of previously unknown contamination or the imposition of new clean-up requirements could require us
to incur costs or become the basis for new or increased liabilities that could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. We may also be
subject from time to time to legal proceedings brought by private parties or governmental
authorities with respect to environmental matters, including matters involving alleged property
damage or personal injury.
Unexpected equipment failures or other disruptions of our operations may increase our costs and
reduce our sales and earnings due to production curtailments or shutdowns.
Interruptions in production capabilities, especially in our Steel Group, would inevitably increase
our production costs and reduce sales and earnings for the affected period. In addition to
equipment failures, our facilities are also subject to the risk of catastrophic loss due to
unanticipated events such as fires, explosions or violent weather conditions. Our manufacturing
processes are dependent upon critical pieces of equipment, such as furnaces, continuous casters and
rolling equipment, as well as electrical equipment, such as transformers, and this equipment may,
on occasion, be out of service as a result of unanticipated failures. In the future, we may
experience material plant shutdowns or periods of reduced production as a result of these types of
equipment failures.
The global nature of our business exposes us to foreign currency fluctuations that may affect our
asset values, results of operations and competitiveness.
We are exposed to the risks of currency exchange rate fluctuations because a significant portion of
our net sales, costs, assets and liabilities, are denominated in currencies other than the U.S.
dollar. These risks include a reduction in our asset values, net sales, operating income and
competitiveness.
For those countries outside the United States where we have significant sales, devaluation in the
local currency would reduce the value of our local inventory as presented in our Consolidated
Financial Statements. In addition, a stronger U.S. dollar would result in reduced revenue,
operating profit and shareholders equity due to the impact of foreign exchange translation on our
Consolidated Financial Statements. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may make our
products more expensive for others to purchase or increase our operating costs, affecting our
competitiveness and our profitability.
Changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies and volatile economic,
political and market conditions in emerging market countries have in the past adversely affected
our financial performance and may in the future adversely affect the value of our assets located
outside the United States, our gross profit and our results of operations.

Table of Contents
Global political instability and other risks of international operations may adversely affect our
operating costs, revenues and the price of our products.
Our international operations expose us to risks not present in a purely domestic business,
including primarily:
| changes in tariff regulations, which may make our products more costly to export or import; | ||
| difficulties establishing and maintaining relationships with local OEMs, distributors and dealers; | ||
| import and export licensing requirements; | ||
| compliance with a variety of foreign laws and regulations, including unexpected changes in taxation and environmental or other regulatory requirements, which could increase our operating and other expenses and limit our operations; | ||
| disadvantages of competing against companies from countries that are not subject to U.S. laws and regulations, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA); | ||
| difficulty in staffing and managing geographically diverse operations; and | ||
| tax exposures related to cross-border intercompany transfer pricing and other tax risks unique to international operations. |
These and other risks may also increase the relative price of our products compared to those
manufactured in other countries, reducing the demand for our products in the markets in which we
operate, which could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and earnings.
Underfunding of our defined benefit and other postretirement plans has caused and may in the future
cause a significant reduction in our shareholders equity.
Although we recorded an increase in shareholders equity related to pension and postretirement
benefit liabilities in 2010 primarily due to positive asset returns, in the future, we may be
required to record additional charges related to pension and other postretirement liabilities as a
result of asset returns, discount rate changes or other actuarial adjustments. These charges may be
significant and would cause a significant reduction in our shareholders equity.
The underfunded status of our pension plans may require large contributions which may divert funds
from other uses.
The underfunded status of our pension plans may require us to make large contributions to such
plans. We made cash contributions of approximately $230 million, $63 million and $22 million in
2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, to our defined benefit pension plans and currently expect to
make cash contributions of approximately $120 million in 2011 to such plans. However, we cannot
predict whether changing economic conditions, the future performance of assets in the plans or
other factors will lead us or require us to make contributions in excess of our current
expectations, diverting funds we would otherwise apply to other uses.
Our defined benefit plans assets and liabilities are substantial and expenses and contributions
related to those plans are affected by factors outside our control, including the performance of
plan assets, interest rates, actuarial data and experience, and changes in laws and regulations.
Our defined benefit plans had assets with an estimated value of approximately $2.4 billion and
liabilities with an estimated value of approximately $2.8 billion, both as of December 31, 2010.
Our future expense and funding obligations for the defined benefit pension plans depend upon a
number of factors, including the level of benefits provided for by the plans, the future
performance of assets set aside in trusts for these plans, the level of interest rates used to
determine the discount rate to calculate the amount of liabilities, actuarial data and experience
and any changes in government laws and regulations. In addition, if the various investments held by
our pension trusts do not perform as expected or the liabilities increase as a result of discount
rate and other actuarial changes, our pension expense and required contributions would increase
and, as a result, could materially adversely affect our business. Due to the value of our defined
benefit plan assets and liabilities, even a minor decrease in interest rates, to the extent not
offset by contributions or asset returns, could increase our obligations under such plans. We may
be legally required to make contributions to the pension plans in the future in excess of our
current expectations, and those contributions could be material.

Work stoppages or similar difficulties could significantly disrupt our operations, reduce our
revenues and materially affect our earnings.
A work stoppage at one or more of our facilities could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations. Also, if one or more of our customers were
to experience a work stoppage, that customer would likely halt or limit purchases of our products,
which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

Overview
Introduction
The Timken Company engineers, markets, manufactures and services highly engineered anti-friction
bearings and assemblies, high-quality alloy steels and aerospace power transmission systems, as
well as provides a broad spectrum of related products and services. The Company operates under two
business groups: the Steel Group and the Bearings and Power Transmission Group. The Bearings and
Power Transmission Group is composed of three operating segments: (1) Mobile Industries, (2)
Process Industries and (3) Aerospace and Defense. These three operating segments and the Steel
Group comprise the Companys four reportable segments. The following is a description of the
Companys segments:
| Mobile Industries provides bearings, power transmission components and related products and services to original equipment manufacturers and suppliers building agricultural, construction and mining equipment, passenger cars, light trucks, medium and heavy-duty trucks, rail cars and locomotives, as well as to automotive aftermarket and heavy-duty truck distributors. |
| Process Industries provides bearings, power transmission components and related products and services, working side by side with original equipment manufacturers of power transmission, energy and heavy industries machinery and equipment. This includes rolling mills, cement and aggregate processing equipment, paper mills, sawmills, printing presses, cranes, hoists, drawbridges, wind energy turbines, gear drives, drilling equipment, coal conveyors, coal crushers and food processing equipment. The segment also serves aftermarket sales through its global network of authorized industrial distributors. |
| Aerospace and Defense manufactures bearings, helicopter transmission systems, rotor head assemblies, turbine engine components, gears and other precision flight-critical components for commercial and military aviation applications and provides aftermarket services, including repair and overhaul of engines, transmissions and fuel controls, as well as aerospace bearing repair and component reconditioning. Additionally, this segment manufactures precision bearings, higher-level assemblies and sensors for equipment manufacturers of health and positioning control equipment. |
| Steel produces more than 450 grades of carbon and alloy steel, which are sold in both solid and tubular sections in a variety of chemistries, lengths and finishes. The groups metallurgical expertise and operational capabilities result in solutions for the automotive, industrial and energy sectors. Timken® specialty steels feature prominently in a wide variety of end products including oil country drill pipe, bits and collars; gears, hubs, axles, crankshafts and connecting rods; bearing races and rolling elements, and bushings, fuel injectors and wind energy shafts. |
The Companys strategy balances corporate aspirations for sustained GROWTH and a determination to
OPTIMIZE the Companys existing portfolio of business, thereby continuing to generate excellent
profits and cash flows.
Specifically, the GROWTH element of the strategy addresses differentiation and expansion.
For differentiation, the Company undertakes investments in new technologies to enhance existing products and services or to create new products that capture value for its customers. In 2010, the Company significantly broadened its product offering, introducing new housed bearings, adding to its spherical and cylindrical bearing line and developing new products and services for the wind energy market sector. Several new grades of steel were introduced, with roughly 25% of the sales for the Steel segment emanating from new products introduced over the past five years. |
Regarding expansion, the Companys strategy is to grow in attractive sectors, with particular emphasis on those industrial markets that test the limits of the Companys products and create significant aftermarket, thereby providing a lifetime of opportunity in both product sales and services. The Companys strategy also encompasses expanding the portfolio in new geographic spaces, with an emphasis in Asia, where it has expanded its manufacturing footprint to include eight manufacturing plants with roughly 4,500 associates and 2010 sales of $470 million, or 12 percent of total Company sales. The Companys acquisition strategy is directed at complementing its existing portfolio and expanding the Companys market position. Examples that demonstrate this strategy include the acquisitions of the assets of The Purdy Corporation, within the Aerospace and Defense segment, and of Boring Specialties, Inc., within the Steel segment. |
Simultaneously, the Company works to OPTIMIZE its existing business with specific initiatives aimed
at transformation and execution. This includes transforming the overall portfolio
of businesses and products to create further value and profitability, which can include addressing
or repositioning underperforming product lines and segments, revising market sector or geographic
strategies and divesting non-strategic assets. As to execution, the Company embraces a continuous
improvement culture that is charged with lowering costs, increasing efficiency, encouraging
organizational agility and building greater brand equity.

The following business transactions highlight the more significant strategic accomplishments from
2010 and the later part of 2009.
| In December 2010, our Steel Groups wholly owned subsidiary TSB Recycling purchased substantially all of the assets of City Scrap and Salvage Co. (City Scrap) in Akron, Ohio. The City Scrap acquisition will streamline the supply of scrap to Timkens steel operations, improving efficiency and increasing supply chain reliability. |
| In September 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of QM Bearings and Power Transmission, Inc. (QM Bearings), headquartered in Ferndale, Washington. QM Bearings manufactures spherical roller bearing steel housed units and elastomeric and steel couplings and expands the Companys presence in demanding applications used in sawmill and logging operations. |
| In August 2010, the Company announced a $50 million investment in its steel operations to install a new intermediate finishing line at the Gambrinus Steel Plant and to expand the steel lay-down yard at the Harrison Steel Plants small-bar mill, both located in Canton, Ohio. |
| In July 2010, the first product shipped from the Companys new ultra-large bore bearing manufacturing facility in Xiangtan, China; the Company holds an 80 percent equity ownership. |
| In May 2010, the Company completed the final installation of Project O.N.E., a multi-year program launched in 2005 to improve the Companys business processes and systems. The Company invested $215.8 million to implement Project O.N.E, of which approximately $126.5 million was capitalized. Presently, 90% of the Bearings and Power Transmission Groups global sales flow through the new system. |
| On December 31, 2009, the Company completed the sale of the assets of its Needle Roller Bearings (NRB) operations to JTEKT Corporation (JTEKT). The Company received approximately $303.6 million in cash proceeds for these operations and retained certain receivables. |

The Company reported net sales for 2010 of $4.1 billion compared to $3.1 billion in 2009, a
29.1% increase. Sales in 2010 were higher across all business segments except for the Aerospace
and Defense segment. The increase in sales was primarily driven by strong demand from the Mobile
Industries and Steel segments and the industrial distribution channel within the Process Industries
segment, as well as higher surcharges, partially offset by lower sales in the Aerospace and Defense
segment. For 2010, diluted earnings per share were $2.81 compared to a net loss per share of $1.39
for 2009. Income from continuing operations per diluted share was $2.73 for 2010 compared to a net
loss from continuing operations per share of $0.64 for 2009.
The Companys results for 2010 reflect the improvement of the end-market sectors served principally
by the Mobile Industries and Steel segments, higher surcharges, improved manufacturing performance,
lower restructuring costs and the favorable impact of prior-year restructuring initiatives,
partially offset by lower demand from aerospace and defense customers, higher raw material costs
and related LIFO expense and higher expense related to incentive compensation plans.
19
Table of Contents
The income from discontinued operations recognized in 2010 is the result of favorable working
capital adjustments from the sale of the Companys NRB operations, completed in December of 2009,
while the loss from discontinued operations recognized in 2009 was due to the negative impact of
the deteriorating global economy on NRBs business operations.
Outlook
The Companys outlook for 2011 reflects a modest improvement in the global economy following the
recovery in 2010. The Company expects higher sales of approximately 10% to 15%, primarily driven
by stronger sales in the Steel, Process Industries and Aerospace & Defense segments. The Company
expects to leverage sales growth from these segments to drive improved operating performance.
However, the strengthening margins will be partially offset by slightly higher selling, general and
administrative expenses to support the higher sales.
From a liquidity standpoint, the Company expects to generate cash from operations of approximately
$340 million, which is a slight increase over 2010. Pension contributions are expected to be
approximately $120 million in 2011 compared to $230 million in 2010. The Company expects to
increase capital expenditures to $220 million in 2011 compared to $115 million in 2010. Dividends
are also expected to increase in 2011 to approximately $70 million compared to $51 million in 2010,
reflecting the full-year impact of the current quarterly dividend rate of $0.18 per share.

amounts in the tables above. See Note 6 Impairment and Restructuring in the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements for further details by segment.
Selling and Administrative Cost Reductions
In March 2009, the Company announced the realignment of its organization to improve efficiency and
reduce costs as a result of the economic downturn. The Company targeted pretax savings of
approximately $80 million in annual selling and administrative costs. This target was achieved in
2009. During 2009, the Company recorded $10.7 million of severance and related benefit costs
related to this initiative to eliminate approximately 280 positions. Of the $10.7 million charge
for 2009, $4.5 million related to the Mobile Industries segment, $2.0 million related to the
Process Industries segment, $0.6 million related to the Aerospace and Defense segment, $1.6 million
related to the Steel segment and $2.0 million related to Corporate positions. Overall, the Company
eliminated approximately 500 sales and administrative positions in 2009.
Manufacturing Workforce Reductions
During 2009, the Company recorded $32.2 million in severance and related benefit costs, including a
curtailment of pension benefits of $0.9 million, to eliminate approximately 3,000 manufacturing
positions to reflect lower demand due to the economic downturn. Of the $32.2 million charge, $21.5
million related to the Mobile Industries segment, $6.5 million related to the Process Industries
segment, $2.5 million related to the Aerospace and Defense segment and $1.7 million related to the
Steel segment. During 2010, the Company recorded an additional $5.0 million in severance and
related benefit costs to eliminate approximately 200 positions. Of the $5.0 million charge for
2010, $2.0 million related to the Aerospace and Defense segment, $1.6 million related to the
Process Industries segment and $1.4 million related to the Mobile Industries segment. In addition,
the Company recorded $1.8 million of exit costs in 2010 related to these reductions and costs
associated with the consolidation of warehouses.
Torrington Campus
On July 20, 2009, the Company sold the remaining portion of its Torrington, Connecticut office
complex. In anticipation of the loss that the Company expected to record upon completion of the
sale of this property, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $6.4 million during the second
quarter of 2009. During the third quarter of 2009, the Company recorded an additional loss of
approximately $0.7 million in other (expense) income, net upon completion of the sale of this
portion of the office complex.

Mobile Industries
In March 2007, the Company announced the closure of its manufacturing facility in Sao Paulo,
Brazil. The Company completed the closure of this manufacturing facility on March 31, 2010. This
closure is targeted to deliver annual pretax savings of approximately $5 million, with expected
pretax costs of approximately $40 million, which includes restructuring costs and rationalization
costs recorded in cost of products sold and selling, general and administrative expenses. The
expected costs increased from $30 million to $40 million due to higher site remediation costs. The
targeted pretax savings were achieved by the end of 2010. Mobile Industries has incurred
cumulative pretax costs of approximately $34.0 million as of December 31, 2010 related to this
closure. During 2010, the Company recorded $4.4 million of exit costs, $1.3 million of severance
and related benefit costs and $1.1 million of impairment charges associated with the closure of
this facility. The exit costs were primarily due to site remediation costs. The impairment
charges were recorded as a result of the carrying value of certain machinery and equipment
exceeding their expected future cash flows. During 2009, the Company recorded $5.2 million of
severance and related benefit costs and $1.7 million of exit costs associated with the closure of
this facility.
In 2009, the Company recorded impairment charges of $71.7 million for certain fixed assets in the
United States, Canada, France and China related to several automotive product lines. The Company
reviewed these assets for impairment during the fourth quarter due to declining sales and as part
of the Companys initiative to exit programs where adequate returns could not be obtained through
pricing initiatives. Incorporating this information into its annual long-term forecasting process,
the Company determined the undiscounted projected future cash flows for these product lines could
not support the carrying value of these asset groups. The Company then arrived at fair value by
either valuing the assets in use where the assets were still producing product or in exchange where
the assets had been idled. See Note 15 Fair Value in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements for further discussion of how the Company arrived at fair value.
In addition to the above charges, the Company recorded $3.1 million of environmental exit costs in
2010 at the site of its former plant in Columbus, Ohio.
Process Industries
In May 2004, the Company announced plans to rationalize its three bearing plants in Canton, Ohio
within the Process Industries segment. In 2009, the Company closed two of the three bearing
plants. In 2009, the Company recorded impairment charges of $27.7 million, exit costs of $1.6
million and severance and related benefits of $0.6 million related to these rationalization plans.
The significant impairment charge was recorded during the second quarter of 2009 as a result of the
rapid deterioration of the market sectors served by one of the rationalized plants resulting in the
carrying value of the fixed assets for this plant exceeding their projected future cash flows. The
Company then arrived at fair value by either valuing the assets in use, where the assets were still
producing product, or in exchange, where the assets had been idled. The fair value was determined
based on market comparisons of similar assets. In 2010, the Company recorded $1.0 million of exit
costs as a result of Process Industries rationalization plans primarily due to demolition costs.
The Process Industries segment has incurred cumulative pretax costs of approximately $71.2 million
(including non-cash charges) as of December 31, 2010 for these plans, including rationalization
costs recorded in cost of products sold and selling, general and administrative expenses. As of
December 31, 2010, the Process Industries rationalization plans have resulted in approximately $35
million in annual pretax savings.
In October 2009, the Company announced the consolidation of its distribution centers in Bucyrus,
Ohio and Spartanburg, South Carolina into a leased facility near the existing Spartanburg location.
The consolidation of the Companys distribution centers reflects that nearly 90% of all
manufactured product inbound to the Companys distribution centers originates in the southeastern
United States, and the new location will significantly reduce the average number of miles required
to ship goods and inventory throughout the supply chain. This initiative is expected to deliver
annual pretax savings of approximately $4 million to $8 million, with expected pretax costs of
approximately $5 million to $10 million by the end of 2011. The closure of the Bucyrus
Distribution Center will eliminate approximately 260 positions. During 2009, the Company recorded
$4.5 million of severance and related benefit costs related to this closure. During 2010, the
Company reduced its accruals for severance and related benefits by $0.7 million.
Aerospace and Defense
In 2010, the Company recorded fixed asset impairment charges of $2.0 million at its location in
Mesa, Arizona. The impairment charges were recorded as a result of the carrying value of certain
machinery and equipment exceeding their expected future cash flows.

Interest expense for 2010 decreased compared to 2009 primarily due to lower average debt
levels, partially offset by the amortization of deferred financing costs associated with the
refinancing of the Companys $500 million Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Senior Credit
Facility) and the issuance of $250 million aggregate principal amount of fixed-rate 6% unsecured
senior notes (Senior Notes), both of which occurred in the third quarter of 2009. Interest income
increased for 2010 compared to 2009 due to significantly higher average invested cash balances in
2010.

The equity investment impairment loss for 2009 reflects an impairment loss on two of the Companys
joint ventures, International Component Supply Ltda for $4.7 million and Endorsia.com International
AB for $1.4 million. The Company recorded the impairment loss as a result of the carrying value
of these investments exceeding the expected future cash flows of these joint ventures. The Company
is currently attempting to sell its interest in both joint ventures.

The effective tax rate on the pretax income for 2010 was favorable relative to the U.S. federal
statutory rate primarily due to earnings in certain foreign jurisdictions where the effective tax
rate is less than 35%, the U.S. manufacturing deduction, the U.S. research tax credit and the net
effect of other U.S. tax items, partially offset by losses at certain foreign subsidiaries where no
tax benefit could be recorded, and U.S. state and local taxes. The effective tax rate for 2010
also includes the net impact of a $21.6 million charge in the first quarter to record the deferred
tax impact of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (as amended), partially offset
by a $19.8 million tax benefit in the fourth quarter to record the benefit of contributions made to
a newly established Voluntary Employee Benefit Association (VEBA) trust to fund certain retiree
healthcare costs.

could be recorded. This item was partially offset by the U.S. research tax credit and the net
effect of other items.

In December 2009, the Company completed the divestiture of its NRB operations to JTEKT.
Discontinued operations represent operating results of the NRB operations for 2009 and the gain
(loss) on disposal of these operations for 2010 and 2009. For 2009, the operating results, net of
tax, of the NRB operations were a loss of $60.0 million, primarily due to the deterioration of the
markets served by the NRB operations and higher restructuring charges in 2009. The restructuring
charges include a pretax impairment loss of $33.7 million and pension curtailment of $2.2 million,
as well as other pretax charges related to severance and related benefits of $16.0 million. The
impairment loss was the result of the projected proceeds from the sale of NRB operations being
lower than the net book value of the net assets expected to be transferred as a result of the sale
of the NRB operations to JTEKT. In 2009, the Company recorded a loss on disposal of $12.6 million,
net of tax.
In 2010, the Company recognized a gain on disposal of $7.4 million, net of income taxes, as a
result of a favorable working capital adjustment. The working capital adjustment was partially
offset by a correction of an error of $1.3 million, net of income taxes, related to a foreign
currency translation adjustment for the Companys Canadian operations that were sold as part of the
NRB divestiture. The Company realized during the third quarter of 2010 that this adjustment
should have been written-off in the fourth quarter of 2009 and recognized as part of the loss on
the sale of the NRB operations. Management of the Company concluded the effect of this adjustment
was immaterial to the Companys 2009 and 2010 financial statements. Refer to Note 2
Acquisitions and Divestitures in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional
discussion.

For 2010, the net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was $2.1 million, compared to
a net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest of $4.6 million in 2009. The increase in net
income attributable to noncontrolling interests in 2010 was primarily due to improved market
conditions served by subsidiaries in which the Company holds less than 100% ownership.
In 2009, the loss attributable to noncontrolling interest increased by $6.1 million due to a
correction of an error related to the $18.4 million goodwill impairment loss the Company recorded
in the fourth quarter of 2008 for the Mobile Industries segment. In recording the goodwill
impairment loss in the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company did not recognize that a portion of the
goodwill impairment loss related to two separate subsidiaries in India and South Africa in which
the Company holds less than 100% ownership. As a result, the Companys 2008 financial statements
were understated by $6.1 million and the Companys first quarter 2009 financial statements were
overstated by $6.1 million. Management concluded the effect of this adjustment was not material to
the Companys 2009 or 2008 financial statements.
Business Segments:
The primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment is
adjusted EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes, excluding the effect of certain items that
management considers not representative of ongoing operations such as impairment and restructuring,
manufacturing rationalization and integration charges, one-time gains or losses on disposal of
non-strategic assets, allocated receipts received or payments made under CDSOA and gains and losses
on the dissolution of subsidiaries). Beginning in 2011, the primary measurement used by management
to measure the financial performance of each segment will be EBIT (earnings before interest and
taxes, including the effect of impairment and restructuring, manufacturing rationalization and
integration charges, one-time gains or losses on disposal of non-strategic assets, allocated
receipts received or payments made under CDSOA and gains and losses on the dissolution of
subsidiaries). The change in 2011 is primarily due to the completion of most of the Companys
previously-announced restructuring initiatives. Refer to Note 13 Segment Information in the
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the reconciliation of adjusted EBIT by segment
to consolidated income before income taxes.
The presentation below reconciles the changes in net sales for each segment reported in accordance
with U.S. GAAP to net sales adjusted to remove the effects of acquisitions made in 2010 and
currency exchange rates. The effects of acquisitions and currency exchange rates are removed to
allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage change in net sales on a
comparable basis from period to period. During the third quarter of 2010, the Company completed
the acquisition of QM Bearings. QM Bearings is part of the Process Industries segment. The
acquisition of City Scrap, completed on December 31, 2010, had no impact on the 2010 operating
results. The year 2009 represents the base year for which the effects of currency are measured; as
a result, currency is assumed to be zero for 2009.

The Mobile Industries segments net sales, excluding the effects of currency-rate changes,
increased 25.1% in 2010, compared to 2009, primarily due to higher volume of approximately $220
million and higher pricing of approximately $90 million. The higher volume was seen across all
market sectors, led by a 40% increase in heavy truck demand, a 33% increase in off-highway demand
and a 28% increase in light vehicle demand. Adjusted EBIT was higher in 2010 compared to 2009,
primarily due to the impact of higher volume and pricing of approximately $180 million, favorable
sales mix of approximately $40 million and improved manufacturing utilization of approximately $25
million. These increases were partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative
expenses of approximately $30 million and LIFO expense of approximately $25 million.

Table of Contents
The Mobile Industries segments sales are expected to increase slightly in 2011, compared to 2010,
primarily due to higher demand across most of the Mobile Industries market sectors, led by
increases in off-highway and heavy truck demand of approximately 10% to 15%, each offset by lower
light vehicle demand. In addition, EBIT for the Mobile Industries segment is expected to be up
slightly in 2011 compared to 2010.

The Process Industries segments net sales, excluding the effect of acquisitions and
currency-rate changes, increased 10.9% for 2010, compared to 2009, primarily due to higher volume
of approximately $80 million. The higher volume resulted from a 20% increase from the industrial
distribution channel, a 116% increase in global wind energy demand and a 10% increase in gear drive
demand. These increases were partially offset by a 26% decline in the metals sector. Adjusted
EBIT was higher in 2010 compared to 2009 due to the impact of increased volume of approximately $45
million and better manufacturing utilization of approximately $35 million. These increases were
partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $30
million and higher raw material costs and related LIFO expense of $25 million.
The Company expects the Process Industries segments sales to increase by 10% to 15% in 2011
compared to 2010. The increase in sales reflects strengthening global industrial distribution,
growth in Asia and sales from new product lines. EBIT for 2011 is expected to be higher, compared
to 2010, as a result of increased volume.

The Aerospace and Defense segments net sales, excluding the effect currency-rate changes,
decreased 18.7% for 2010, compared to 2009. The decline was due to a decrease in volume of
approximately $90 million, partially offset by favorable pricing. Volume was down across most
market sectors within the Aerospace and Defense segment, especially the defense and civil aviation
market sectors. Adjusted EBIT decreased 70.8% in 2010, compared to 2009, primarily due to lower
volume of approximately $35 million, higher manufacturing costs of approximately $20 million and
higher LIFO expense of approximately $10 million, partially offset by cost reductions, pricing and
sales mix. The Company expects the Aerospace and Defense segment to see an increase in sales of
approximately 5% to 10% as a result of strengthening in the commercial aerospace and health and
positioning control market sectors, partially offset by continued weakness in the general aviation
and defense markets. EBIT for 2011 is expected to increase, compared to 2010, as a result of
higher volume.

The Steel segments net sales for 2010, excluding the effects of currency-rate changes,
increased 90.1% compared to 2009, primarily due to higher volume of approximately $445
million, across all market sectors, and higher surcharges of approximately $250 million in 2010,
partially offset by an unfavorable sales mix of approximately $50 million. Surcharges increased to
$350.4 million in 2010 from $100.1 million in 2009. Surcharges are a pricing mechanism that the
Company uses to recover scrap steel, energy and certain alloy costs, which are derived from
published monthly indices. The average scrap index for 2010 was $426 per ton compared to $258 per
ton for 2009. Steel shipments for 2010 were 1,027,280 tons, compared to 594,931 tons for 2009, an
increase of 73%. The Steel segments average selling price, including surcharges, was $1,323 per
ton for 2010, compared to an average selling price of $1,202 per ton for 2009. The increase in the
average selling prices was primarily the result of higher surcharges, partially offset by
unfavorable sales mix. The higher surcharges were the result of higher prices for certain input
raw materials, especially scrap steel, molybdenum and nickel.
The Steel segments adjusted EBIT increased $204.2 million in 2010, compared to 2009, primarily due
to higher surcharges, the impact of higher sales volume of approximately $175 million and lower
manufacturing costs of approximately $110 million, partially offset by the impact of higher raw
material costs of approximately $255 million and higher LIFO expense of approximately $40 million.
In 2010, the Steel segment recognized LIFO expense of $2.8 million, compared to LIFO income of
$37.1 million in 2009. Raw material costs consumed in the manufacturing process, including scrap
steel, alloys and energy, increased 38% in 2010, compared to the prior year, to an average cost of
$414 per ton.
The Company expects the Steel segment to see a 20% to 25% increase in sales for 2011, compared to
2010, due to higher volume and higher average selling prices. The higher average selling prices
are driven by higher surcharges as scrap steel and alloy prices are expected to increase in 2011.
The Company expects stronger demand across most market sectors, primarily driven by a 60% increase
in oil and gas market sectors and a 15% increase in industrial market sectors. The Company expects
the Steel segments EBIT to increase in 2011, compared to 2010, primarily due to the stronger
demand, higher average selling prices and favorable sales mix, partially offset by higher raw
material costs. Scrap, alloy and energy costs are expected to increase in the near term from
current levels as global industrial production improves and then levels off.

The Company reported net sales for 2009 of $3.1 billion compared to $5.0 billion in 2008, a
decrease of 37.7%. Sales in 2009 were lower across all business segments except for the Aerospace
and Defense segment. The decrease in sales was primarily driven by lower volume and lower
surcharges in the Steel segment, partially offset by the impact of favorable pricing. For 2009,
net loss per share was $1.39 compared to diluted earnings per share of $2.77 for 2008. Loss from
continuing operations per share was $0.64 for 2009 compared to income from continuing operations
per diluted share of $2.89 for 2008.
The Companys results for 2009 reflect the deterioration of most market sectors as a result of the
global economic downturn. The impact of lower volume and higher restructuring charges, including
asset impairments, resulting from actions taken to align the Companys businesses with current
demand, was partially offset by lower raw material costs and lower selling and administrative
costs. Additionally, the Companys results from continuing operations for 2008 reflected a pretax
gain of $20.4 million on the sale of the Companys former seamless steel tube manufacturing
facility located in Desford, England.

2009 Selling and Administrative Cost Reductions
During 2009, the Company recorded $10.7 million of severance and related benefit costs related to
this initiative to eliminate approximately 280 positions. Of the $10.7 million charge for 2009,
$4.5 million related to the Mobile Industries segment, $2.0 million related to the Process
Industries segment, $0.6 million related to the Aerospace and Defense segment, $1.6 million related
to the Steel segment and $2.0 million related to Corporate. Overall, the Company eliminated
approximately 500 sales and administrative positions in 2009.

Table of Contents
2009 Manufacturing Workforce Reductions
During 2009, the Company recorded $32.2 million in severance and related benefit costs, including a
curtailment of pension benefits of $0.9 million, to eliminate approximately 3,000 manufacturing
positions to properly align its business as a result of the current downturn in the economy and
expected market demand. Of the $32.2 million charge, $21.5 million related to the Mobile
Industries segment, $6.5 million related to the Process Industries segment, $2.5 million related to
the Aerospace and Defense segment and $1.7 million related to the Steel segment.
2008 Workforce Reductions
In December 2008, the Company recorded $4.2 million in severance and related benefit costs to
eliminate approximately 110 manufacturing and sales and administrative positions as a result of the
downturn in the economy. Of the $4.2 million charge, $2.0 million related to the Mobile Industries
segment, $0.8 million related to the Process Industries segment, $1.1 million related to the Steel
segment and $0.3 million related to Corporate.
Bearings and Power Transmission Reorganization
During the first quarter of 2008, the Company began to operate under two major business groups: the
Steel Group and the Bearings and Power Transmission Group. The Bearings and Power Transmission
Group is composed of three reportable segments: Mobile Industries, Process Industries and Aerospace
and Defense. During 2008, the Company recorded $2.5 million of severance and related benefit costs
related to this initiative.
Torrington Campus
On July 20, 2009, the Company sold the remaining portion of its Torrington, Connecticut office
complex. In anticipation of the loss that the Company expected to record upon completion of the
sale of this property, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $6.4 million during the second
quarter of 2009.
Mobile Industries
In 2009, the Company recorded fixed asset impairment charges of $71.7 million for certain fixed
assets in the United States, Canada, France and China related to several automotive product lines.
The Company reviewed these assets for impairment during the fourth quarter due to declining sales
and as a result of the Companys initiative to exit programs where adequate returns could not be
obtained through pricing initiatives.
The Company recorded an impairment charge of $48.8 million in 2008, representing the write-off of
goodwill associated with the Mobile Industries segment. Of the $48.8 million impairment charge,
$30.4 million was reclassified to discontinued operations. The Company is required to review
goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment annually. The Company performed this
annual test during the fourth quarter of 2008 using an income approach (discounted cash flow model)
and a market approach. As a result of the economic downturn that began in the second half of 2008,
managements forecasts of earnings and cash flow declined significantly. The Company utilized
these forecasts for the income approach as part of the goodwill impairment review. As a result of
the lower earnings and cash flow forecasts at that time, the Company determined that the Mobile
Industries segment could not support the carrying value of its goodwill. Refer to Note 8
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for
additional discussion.
During 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded $5.2 million and $2.2 million, respectively, of
severance and related benefit costs and $1.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of exit costs
associated with the closure of the manufacturing facility in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Process Industries
In 2009, the Company recorded impairment charges of $27.7 million, exit costs of $1.6 million and
severance and related benefits of $0.6 million as a result of Process Industries rationalization
plans. The significant impairment charge was recorded during the second quarter of 2009 as a
result of the rapid deterioration of the market sectors served by one of the rationalized plants
resulting in the carrying value of the fixed assets for this plant exceeding their projected future
cash flows.
During 2009, the Company recorded $4.5 million of severance and related benefit costs related to
the closure of the distribution center in Bucyrus, Ohio.

decreased for 2009 compared to 2008 due to the net effect of significantly lower interest rates on
higher average invested cash balances in 2009.

reclassified to discontinued operations. Refer to Other Matters Continued Dumping and Subsidy
Offset Act (CDSOA) for additional discussion.
In 2008, the gain on divestitures of non-strategic assets primarily related to the sale of the
Companys seamless steel tube manufacturing facility located in Desford, England, which closed in
April 2007. In February 2008, the Company completed the sale of this facility, resulting in a
pretax gain of approximately $20.4 million.
The equity investment impairment loss for 2009 reflects an impairment loss on two of the Companys
joint ventures, International Component Supply Ltda for $4.7 million and Endorsia.com International
AB for $1.4 million.
For 2009, other (expense) income, net primarily consisted of $5.2 million of foreign currency
exchange gains, $1.7 million of royalty income, $0.6 million of investment income and $0.5 million
of export incentives, offset by $7.5 million of losses on the disposal of fixed assets. For 2008,
other (expense) income, net primarily included $6.4 million of foreign currency losses, $4.7
million of losses on the disposal of fixed assets and $3.9 million of donations, partially offset
by gains on equity investments of $1.4 million and $1.2 million of export incentives.

In December 2009, the Company completed the divestiture of its NRB operations to JTEKT.
Discontinued operations represent the operating results and related loss on sale, net of tax, of
these operations. For 2009, the operating results, net of tax, of the NRB operations were a loss
of $60.0 million, compared to a loss of $11.3 million for 2008, primarily due to the deterioration
of the markets served by the NRB operations and higher restructuring charges in 2009. The
restructuring charges include a pretax impairment loss of $33.7 million and a pension curtailment
of $2.2 million, as well as other pretax charges related to severance and related benefits of $16.0
million. The impairment loss was the result of the projected proceeds from the sale of NRB
operations being lower than the net book value of the net assets expected to be transferred as a
result of the sale of the NRB operations to JTEKT. The operating results, net of tax, for 2008
include a pretax impairment charge of $30.4 million, which represents the write-off of goodwill
associated with the Mobile Industries segment. Refer to Note 2 Acquisitions and Divestitures in
the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion.

On January 1, 2009, the Company implemented new accounting rules related to noncontrolling
interests. The new accounting rules establish requirements for ownership interests in subsidiaries
held by parties other than the Company (sometimes called minority interests) to be clearly
identified, presented and disclosed in the consolidated statements of financial position within
equity, but separate from the parents equity. In addition, the new accounting rules require that
net income attributable to parties other than the Company be separately reported on the
Consolidated Statements of Income. For 2009, the net (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling
interest was a loss of $4.6 million, compared to income of $3.6 million for 2008. In the first
quarter of 2009, net (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling interest increased by $6.1
million due to a correction of an error related to the $18.4 million goodwill impairment loss the
Company recorded in the fourth quarter of 2008 for the Mobile Industries segment. In recording the
goodwill impairment loss in the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company did not recognize that a
portion of the goodwill impairment loss related to two separate subsidiaries in India and South
Africa in which the Company holds less than 100% ownership. As a result, the Companys 2008
financial statements were understated by $6.1 million and the Companys first quarter 2009
financial statements were overstated by $6.1 million. Management concluded the effect of the first
quarter adjustment was not material to the Companys 2008 and first quarter 2009 financial
statements as well as the full-year 2009 financial statements.

Business Segments:
The presentation below reconciles the changes in net sales for each segment operations reported in
accordance with U.S. GAAP to net sales adjusted to remove the effects of acquisitions and currency
exchange rates. The effects of acquisitions and currency exchange rates are removed to allow
investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage change in net sales on a
comparable basis from period to period. In first quarter of 2008, the Company completed the
acquisition of the assets of Boring Specialties, Inc., which is part of the Steel segment. In
November 2008, the Company completed the acquisition of the assets of EXTEX Ltd., which is part of
the Aerospace and Defense segment. Acquisitions in 2009 represent the increase in sales, year over
year, for acquisitions completed during 2009 and 2008. The year 2008 represents the base year for
which the effects of currency are measured; as a result, currency is assumed to be zero for 2008.

The Mobile Industries segments net sales, excluding the effects of currency-rate changes,
decreased 26.5% in 2009, compared to 2008, primarily due to lower volume of approximately $565
million, partially offset by improved pricing and favorable sales mix of approximately $95 million.
The lower volume was seen across all market sectors, led by a 13% decline in light vehicle demand,
a 49% decline in heavy truck demand and a 44% decline in off-highway demand.
Adjusted EBIT was lower in 2009 compared to 2008, primarily due to the impact of lower demand of
$135 million and the impact of underutilization of manufacturing capacity of approximately $115
million, partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative expenses of $100 million as
a result of restructuring initiatives, improved pricing and favorable sales mix of approximately
$65 million, lower raw material costs of approximately $40 million and lower logistics costs of
approximately $40 million. In reaction to the lower demand experienced in 2009, the Mobile
Industries segment reduced total employment levels by approximately 3,100 positions in 2009.

The volume was down 25% to 35% across most market sectors. Adjusted EBIT was lower in 2009
compared to 2008, primarily due to the impact of lower volumes of approximately $220 million,
partially offset by improved pricing and favorable sales mix of approximately $70 million, lower

reduced demand across commercial and general aviation markets of approximately $22 million, offset
by improved pricing and favorable sales mix of approximately $20 million. Adjusted EBIT increased
75.1% in 2009, compared to 2008, primarily due to increased pricing and sales mix of approximately

The Steel segments net sales for 2009, excluding the effects of acquisitions and currency-rate
changes, decreased 61.5% compared to 2008, primarily due to lower volume of approximately $590
million across all market sectors and lower surcharges in 2009. Surcharges decreased to $100.1
million in 2009 from $656.4 million in 2008. Surcharges are a pricing mechanism that the Company
uses to recover scrap steel, energy and certain alloy costs, which are derived from published
monthly indices. The average scrap index for 2009 was $258 per ton compared to $516 per ton for
2008. Steel shipments for 2009 were 593,595 tons, compared to 1,167,945 tons for 2008, a decrease
of 49%. The Steel segments average selling price, including surcharges, was $1,204 per ton for
2009, compared to an average selling price of $1,586 per ton for 2008. The decrease in the average
selling prices was primarily the result of lower surcharges. The lower surcharges were the result
of lower prices for certain input raw materials, especially scrap steel, molybdenum, natural gas
and nickel. In light of the significantly lower market demands experienced in 2009, compared to
2008, the Steel segment reduced total employment levels by approximately 680 positions in 2009.
The Steel segments adjusted EBIT decreased $321.9 million in 2009, compared to 2008, primarily due
to lower surcharges of $556 million, the impact of lower sales volume of approximately $280 million
and the impact of the underutilization of capacity of approximately $70 million, partially offset
by lower raw material costs of approximately $385 million and lower LIFO charges of $67 million.
In 2009, the Steel segment recognized LIFO income of $37.1 million, compared to LIFO expense of
$29.6 million in 2008. Raw material costs consumed in the manufacturing process, including scrap
steel, alloys and energy, decreased 45% in 2009 compared to the prior year to an average cost of
$300 per ton.

The Balance Sheets
Total assets, as shown on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2010, increased by $173.5
million from December 31, 2009. The increase was primarily due to higher cash and cash equivalents
and higher working capital as a result of higher volumes, partially offset by lower deferred income
taxes.

Refer to the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for a discussion of the increase in cash and
cash equivalents. Accounts receivable, net increased as a result of the higher sales in the fourth
quarter of 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009, as well as a $14.0 million decrease in the
allowance for doubtful accounts. Inventories increased primarily due to higher volume and higher
raw material costs. The increase in deferred income taxes was primarily due to an increase in
book-tax differences related to accrued liabilities, primarily related to incentive-based
compensation, and inventory reserves. The decrease in other current
assets was primarily due to a
decrease of approximately $70 million in net income taxes receivable as a result of a $54.3 million
tax refund received in July 2010 and the current-year provision for income taxes. This decrease
was partially offset by an increase of approximately $15 million in short-term investments and a
$6.5 million reclassification of the Companys investments in two joint ventures, International
Component Supply Ltda and Endorsia.com, from other non-current assets as these investments are
considered assets held for sale at December 31, 2010.

The increase in long-term debt was due to the borrowing of funds for the construction of a new
wind energy bearing manufacturing facility in China, in which the Company holds an 80% ownership
interest. The decrease in accrued pension cost was primarily due to the Companys contribution of
approximately $230 million to its defined benefit pension plans during 2010, as well as positive
asset returns on pension assets as a result of increases in the global capital markets. The
decrease in accrued postretirement benefits cost was primarily due to a contribution of $54 million

adjustment primarily due to favorable asset returns on defined pension plan assets and the
recognition of prior-year service costs and actuarial losses for defined benefit pension and

2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The decrease in net cash provided by operating
activities was primarily due to higher pension and other postretirement benefit contributions and
payments as well as lower cash provided by working capital items, particularly inventories and
accounts receivable, partially offset by higher net income. Pension and other postretirement
benefit payments were $337.0 million in 2010, compared to $113.5 million in 2009. Accounts
receivable used cash of $104.8 million in 2010 after providing cash of $174.5 million in 2009.
Inventories used cash of $150.0 million in 2010 after providing
cash of $356.1 million in 2009.
Accounts receivable and inventories increased in 2010 primarily due to higher volumes compared to
2009. In addition, the increase in accounts receivable was partially offset by the collection of
retained net receivables from the sale of the NRB operations. Accounts payable and accrued
expenses provided cash of $173.6 million in 2010 after using cash of $156.1 million in 2009. Net
income attributable to The Timken Company increased $408.8 million in 2010 compared to in 2009.
Investing activities used cash of $152.9 million in 2010 compared to providing cash of $194.2
million in 2009. This change was the result of the receipt of $303.6 million from the NRB
divestiture in 2009, an increase in acquisitions of $22.2 million and an increase in short-term
investments of $15.0 million. The increase in short-term investments included a cash deposit to
collateralize an insurance obligation. The increase in acquisitions primarily related to the
purchase of QM Bearings, which was completed in September 2010, and the purchase of City Scrap,
which was completed in December 2010.
The net cash used by financing activities of $32.9 million in 2010 decreased from $178.0 million in
2009. The Company increased its net borrowings by $0.7 million during 2010 after reducing its net
borrowings by $124.9 million during 2009. In addition, the Company purchased one million shares of
its common stock for approximately $29.2 million during 2010, compared to no shares purchased in
2009, which was substantially offset by a net increase in proceeds of $49.5 million related to
stock option exercises.

The Company presents net (cash) debt because it believes net debt is more representative of the
Companys financial position.
On November 10, 2010, the Company entered into a new two-year Accounts Receivable Securitization
Financing Agreement (Asset Securitization Agreement), which provides for borrowings up to $150
million, subject to certain borrowing base limitations, and is secured by certain domestic trade
receivables of the Company. The Company had full availability under the Asset Securitization
Agreement at December 31, 2010.
At December 31, 2010, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its Senior Credit Facility
but had letters of credit outstanding totaling $17.2 million, which reduced the availability under
the Senior Credit Facility to $482.8 million. The Senior Credit Facility matures on July 10, 2012.
Under the Senior Credit Facility, the Company has three financial covenants: a consolidated
leverage ratio, a consolidated interest coverage ratio and a consolidated minimum tangible net
worth test. The maximum consolidated leverage ratio permitted under the Senior Credit Facility was
3.75 to 1.0. As of December 31, 2010, the Companys consolidated leverage ratio was 0.76 to 1.0.
The minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio permitted under the Senior Credit Facility was 4.0
to 1.0. As of December 31, 2010, the Companys consolidated interest coverage ratio was 18.99 to
1.0. As of December 31, 2010, the Companys consolidated tangible net worth exceeded the minimum
required amount by a significant margin. Refer to Note 5 Financing Arrangements in the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
The interest rate under the Senior Credit Facility is based on the Companys consolidated leverage
ratio. In addition, the Company pays a facility fee based on the consolidated leverage ratio
multiplied by the aggregate commitments of all of the lenders under this agreement. Financing
costs on the Senior Credit Facility are being amortized over the life of the agreement and are
expected to result in approximately $2.9 million in annual interest expense until maturity in 2012.
Other sources of liquidity include lines of credit for certain of the Companys foreign
subsidiaries, which provide for borrowings up to $322.1 million. The majority of these lines are
uncommitted. At December 31, 2010, the Company had borrowings outstanding of $40.6 million against
these lines, which reduced the availability under these facilities to $281.5 million.

The Company expects that any cash requirements in excess of cash on hand and cash generated from
operating activities will be met by the committed funds available under its Asset Securitization
Agreement and the Senior Credit Facility. The Company believes it has sufficient liquidity to meet
its obligations through at least the term of the Senior Credit Facility.
The Company expects to remain in compliance with its debt covenants. As of December 31, 2010, the
Company could have borrowed the full amounts available under the Senior Credit Facility and Asset
Securitization Agreement and would have remained in full compliance with its debt covenants. The
Company does not expect borrowings to be limited by its debt covenants through the term of the
Senior Credit Facility. However, the Company may need to limit its borrowings under the Senior
Credit Facility or other facilities from time to time in order to remain in compliance.
In September 2009, the Company issued $250 million of fixed-rated unsecured Senior Notes. These
new Senior Notes, which mature in September 2014, bear interest at 6.0% per annum. The net
proceeds from the sale of the new Senior Notes were used in December 2009 to redeem fixed-rate
unsecured senior notes maturing in February 2010.
The Company expects cash from operations in 2011 to improve slightly over 2010 as the Company
continues to experience improved margins. The Company expects to make approximately $120 million
in pension contributions in 2011, compared to $230 million in 2010. The Company also expects to
increase capital expenditures to $220 million in 2011 compared to $115 million in 2010.

the next 18 years.
Returns for the Companys global defined benefit pension plan assets in 2010 were above the
expected rate of return assumption of 8.75 percent due to broad increases in global capital
markets. These favorable returns positively impacted the funded status of the plans at the end of
2010 and are expected to result in lower pension expense and required pension contributions over
the next several years. However, the Company expects to make cash contributions of $120 million,
over $100 million of which is discretionary, to its global defined benefit pension plans in 2011,
compared to $230 million contributed in 2010. The Company also contributed $54 million to a VEBA
trust to fund retiree healthcare costs. The Company may consider making additional discretionary
contributions to either its defined benefit pension plans or its postretirement benefit plans
during 2011. Refer to Note 12 Retirement and Postretirement Benefit Plans in the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion.
During 2010, the Company purchased one million shares of its common stock for approximately $29.2
million under the Companys 2006 common stock purchase plan. This plan authorizes the Company to
buy, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, up to four million shares of
common stock, which are to be held as treasury shares and used for specified purposes, up to an
aggregate of $180 million. The authorization expires on December 31, 2012.
As disclosed in Note 7 Contingencies and Note 14 Income Taxes in the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has exposure for certain legal and tax matters.
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities or other
persons.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance that
amends the accounting and disclosure requirements for the consolidation of variable interest
entities. The implementation of the new accounting guidance related to variable interest entities,
effective January 1, 2010, did not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations
and financial condition.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:
The Companys financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
periods presented. The following paragraphs include a discussion of some critical areas that
require a higher degree of judgment, estimates and complexity.
Revenue recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue when title passes to the customer. This occurs at the shipping
point, except for certain exported goods and certain foreign entities, for which it occurs when the
goods reach their destination. Selling prices are fixed based on purchase orders or contractual
arrangements.
Inventory:
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with approximately 54% valued by the
last-in, first-out (LIFO) method and the remaining 46% valued by the first-in, first-out (FIFO)
method. The majority of the Companys domestic inventories are valued by the LIFO method and all
of the Companys international (outside the United States) inventories are valued by the FIFO
method. An actual valuation of the inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of
each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO
calculations are based on managements estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs.
Because these are subject to many factors beyond managements control, annual results may differ
from interim results as they are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation. The
Company recognized an increase in its LIFO reserve of $26.9 million for 2010, compared to a
decrease in its LIFO reserve of $60.5 million for 2009.
Goodwill:
The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually.
The Company performs its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter after the annual
forecasting process is completed. Furthermore, goodwill is reviewed for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Each interim
period, management of the Company assesses whether or not an indicator of impairment is present
that would necessitate that a goodwill impairment analysis be performed in an interim period other
than during the fourth quarter.
The goodwill impairment analysis is a two-step process. Step one compares the carrying amount of
the reporting unit to its estimated fair value. To the extent that the carrying value of the
reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, step two is performed, where the reporting units
carrying value of goodwill is compared to the implied fair value of goodwill. To the extent that
the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, impairment exists and
must be recognized.
The Company reviews goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level. The Companys reporting
units are the same as its reportable segments: Mobile Industries, Process Industries, Aerospace
and Defense and Steel. The Company prepares its goodwill impairment analysis by comparing the
estimated fair value of each reporting unit, using an income approach (a discounted cash flow
model) as well as a market approach, with its carrying value. The income approach and the market
approach are equally weighted in arriving at fair value, which the Company has applied
consistently.
The discounted cash flow model requires several assumptions including future sales growth, EBIT
(earnings before interest and taxes) margins and capital expenditures. The Companys four
reporting units each provide their forecast of results for the next three years. These forecasts
are the basis for the information used in the discounted cash flow model. The discounted cash flow
model also requires the use of a discount rate and a terminal revenue growth rate (the revenue
growth rate for the period beyond the three years forecasted by the reporting units), as well as
projections of future operating margins (for the period beyond the forecasted three years). During
the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company used a discount rate for each of its four reporting units
of 12% to 14% and a terminal revenue growth rate ranging from 2% to 3%. The difference in the
discount rates and terminal revenue growth rates is based on the underlying markets and risks
associated with each of the Companys reporting units.
The market approach requires several assumptions including sales multiples and EBITDA (earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) multiples for comparable companies that
operate in the same markets as the Companys reporting units. During the fourth quarter of 2010,
the Company used sales multiples for its four reporting units ranging from 0.6 to 1.6 and EBITDA
multiples ranging from 7.0 to 10.1. The difference in the sales multiples and the EBITDA multiples
is due to the underlying markets associated with each of the Companys reporting units.

Table of Contents
As a result of the goodwill impairment analysis performed during the fourth quarter of 2010, the
Company recognized no goodwill impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Mobile
Industries segments has no carrying value of goodwill, as it was fully impaired in 2008. The fair
value of each of the Process Industries and Steel segments exceeded their carrying value by a
significant amount. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had $224.4 million of goodwill on its
Consolidated Balance Sheet, of which $162.3 million was attributable to the Aerospace and Defense
segment. See Note 8 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets in the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements for the carrying amount of goodwill by segment. The fair value of this reporting unit
was $555.8 million compared to a carrying value of $455.2 million. A 200 basis point increase in
the discount rate would have resulted in the Aerospace and Defense segment failing step one of the
goodwill impairment analysis, which would have required the completion of step two of the goodwill
impairment analysis to arrive at a potential goodwill impairment loss. A 1,600 basis point
decrease in the projected cash flows would have resulted in the Aerospace and Defense segment
failing step one of the goodwill impairment analysis, which would have required the completion of
step two of the goodwill impairment analysis to arrive at a potential goodwill impairment loss.
Restructuring costs:
The Companys policy is to recognize restructuring costs in accordance with Accounting Standards
Codification (ASC) 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, and ASC 712, Compensation and
Non-retirement Post-Employment Benefits. Detailed contemporaneous documentation is maintained and
updated to ensure that accruals are properly supported. If management determines that there is a
change in estimate, the accruals are adjusted to reflect this change.
Benefit plans:
The Company sponsors a number of defined benefit pension plans that cover eligible associates. The
Company also sponsors several funded and unfunded postretirement plans that provide health care and
life insurance benefits for eligible retirees and their dependents. These plans are accounted for
in accordance with accounting rules for defined benefit pension plans and postemployment plans.
The measurement of liabilities related to these plans is based on managements assumptions related
to future events, including discount rates, rates of return on pension plan assets, rates of
compensation increases and health care cost trend rates. Management regularly evaluates these
assumptions and adjusts them as required and appropriate. Other plan assumptions are also reviewed
on a regular basis to reflect recent experience and the Companys future expectations. Actual
experience that differs from these assumptions may affect future liquidity, expense and the overall
financial position of the Company. While the Company believes that current assumptions are
appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in these
assumptions may materially affect the Companys pension and other postretirement employee benefit
obligations and its future expense and cash flow.
A discount rate is used to calculate the present value of expected future pension and
postretirement cash flows as of the measurement date. The Company establishes the discount rate by
constructing a portfolio of high-quality corporate bonds and matching the coupon payments and bond
maturities to projected benefit payments under the Companys pension and postretirement welfare
plans. The bonds included in the portfolio are generally non-callable. A lower discount rate will
result in a higher benefit obligation; conversely, a higher discount rate will result in a lower
benefit obligation. The discount rate is also used to calculate the annual interest cost, which is
a component of net periodic benefit cost.
For expense purposes in 2010, the Company applied a discount rate of 6.00% for the defined benefit
pension plans and 5.75% for the postretirement welfare plans. For expense purposes for 2011, the
Company will apply a discount rate of 5.75% for the defined benefit pension plans and 5.50% for the
postretirement welfare plans. A .25 percentage point reduction in the discount rate would increase
pension expense by approximately $4.6 million for the defined benefit pension plans and $0.5
million for the postretirement welfare plans for 2011.
The expected rate of return on plan assets is determined by analyzing the historical long-term
performance of the Companys pension plan assets, as well as the mix of plan assets between
equities, fixed income securities and other investments, the expected long-term rate of return
expected for those asset classes and long-term inflation rates. Short-term asset performance can
differ significantly from the expected rate of return, especially in volatile markets. A
lower-than-expected rate of return on pension plan assets will increase pension expense and future
contributions. For expense purposes in 2010, the Company applied an expected rate of return of
8.75% for the Companys pension plan assets. For expense purposes for 2011, the Company will apply
an expected rate of return on plan assets of 8.50%. A .25 percentage point reduction in the
expected rate of return would increase pension expense by approximately $5.7 million for 2011. In
addition, at the end of 2010 the Company established a VEBA for certain bargained associates
retiree medical benefits. Beginning in 2011, the Company will apply an expected rate of return of
5.00% to the VEBA assets for expense purposes. The expected return will decrease expense for
postretirement welfare benefits by approximately $2.7 million in 2011.

Table of Contents
For measurement purposes for postretirement benefits, the Company assumed a weighted-average annual
rate of increase in per capita cost (health care cost trend rate) for medical benefits of 9.2% for
2011, declining steadily for the next 67 years to 5.0%; and 10.5% for prescription drug benefits
for 2011, declining steadily for the next 67 years to 5.0%. The assumed health care cost trend
rate may have a significant effect on the amounts reported. A one percentage point increase in the
assumed health care cost trend rate would have increased the 2010 total service and interest cost
components by $1.0 million and would have increased the postretirement obligation by $17.9 million.
A one percentage point decrease would provide corresponding reductions of $0.9 million and $16.2
million, respectively.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) was enacted on March 23, 2010. PPACA
consists of a broad range of provisions that may impact future plan design and administrative cost.
The Companys actuary determined the impact PPACA has on the accumulated postretirement benefit
obligation, to the extent measurable. The effect of PPACA resulted in an increase in the reported
postretirement benefit obligation of approximately $3.5 million. The net periodic postretirement
benefit cost for 2010 was not impacted by PPACA. It has been estimated that the 2011 net periodic
postretirement benefit cost will increase by approximately $0.6 million to reflect the impact of
PPACA.
The U.S. Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (Medicare Act) was signed into law on December 8, 2003. The Medicare Act provides for prescription drug benefits under Medicare Part D and contains a tax-free subsidy to plan sponsors who provide actuarially equivalent prescription plans. The Companys actuary determined that the prescription drug benefit provided by the Companys
postretirement plan is considered to be actuarially equivalent to the benefit provided under the
Medicare Act. The effects of the Medicare Act include reductions to the accumulated postretirement
benefit obligation and net periodic postretirement benefit cost of $7.6 million and $2.3 million,
respectively. The 2010 expected Medicare subsidy was $3.3 million, of which $1.8 million was
received prior to December 31, 2010.
Income taxes:
The Company, which is subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous non-U.S.
jurisdictions, accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are recorded for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases, as well as net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in
the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company
records valuation allowances against deferred tax assets by tax jurisdiction when it is more likely
than not that such assets will not be realized. In determining the need for a valuation allowance,
the historical and projected financial performance of the entity recording the net deferred tax
asset is considered along with any other pertinent information. Net deferred tax assets relate
primarily to pension and postretirement benefit obligations in the United States, which the Company
believes are more likely than not to result in future tax benefits.
In the ordinary course of the Companys business, there are many transactions and calculations
where the ultimate income tax determination is uncertain. The Company is regularly under audit by
tax authorities. Accruals for uncertain tax positions are provided for in accordance with the
requirements of ASC 740-10. The Company records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax
positions as a component of income tax expense.
Significant management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes, deferred
tax assets and liabilities, valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, and accruals for
uncertain tax positions.
Other loss reserves:
The Company has a number of loss exposures that are incurred in the ordinary course of business
such as environmental claims, product liability, product warranty, litigation and accounts
receivable reserves. Establishing loss reserves for these matters requires managements estimate
and judgment with regards to risk exposure and ultimate liability or realization. These loss
reserves are reviewed periodically and adjustments are made to reflect the most recent facts and
circumstances.
Other Matters:
Foreign Currency
Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries are translated at the rate of exchange in effect on the
balance sheet date; income and expenses are translated at the average rates of exchange prevailing
during the quarter. Related translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of
accumulated other comprehensive loss. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from
transactions are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Foreign currency exchange gains included in the Companys operating results for the year ended
December 31, 2010 were $4.3 million, compared to gains of $8.2 million during the year ended
December 31, 2009. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recorded a negative non-cash
foreign currency translation adjustment of $5.2 million that decreased shareholders equity,
compared to a positive non-cash foreign currency translation adjustment of $39.8 million that
increased shareholders equity for the year ended December 31, 2009. The foreign currency
translation adjustments for the year ended December 31, 2010 were negatively impacted by the
strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies such as the Euro and the British
pound.

Trade Law Enforcement
The U.S. government has six antidumping duty orders in effect covering ball bearings from France,
Germany, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom and tapered roller bearings from China. The Company
is a producer of all of these products in the United States. The U.S. government determined in
August 2006 that each of these six antidumping duty orders should remain in effect for an
additional five years, after which the orders could be reviewed again.
Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA)
The CDSOA provides for distribution of monies collected by U.S. Customs from antidumping cases to
qualifying domestic producers where the domestic producers have continued to invest in their
technology, equipment and people. The Company reported CDSOA receipts, net of expenses, of $2.0
million, $3.6 million and $10.2 million in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
In September 2002, the World Trade Organization (WTO) ruled that CDSOA payments are not consistent
with international trade rules. In February 2006, U.S. legislation was enacted that would end
CDSOA distributions for dumped imports covered by antidumping duty orders entering the United
States after September 30, 2007. Instead, any such antidumping duties collected would remain with
the U.S. Treasury. This legislation would be expected to eventually reduce any distributions in
years beyond 2007, with distributions eventually ceasing. Several countries have objected that
this U.S. legislation is not consistent with WTO rulings, and have been granted retaliation rights
by the WTO, typically in the form of increased tariffs on some imported goods from the United
States. The European Union and Japan have been retaliating in this fashion against the operation
of U.S. law.
In 2006, the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) ruled, in two separate decisions, that the
procedure for determining recipients eligible to receive CDSOA distributions is unconstitutional.
In February 2009, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed both decisions of the
CIT. In December 2009, a plaintiff petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to hear a further appeal, but
the Supreme Court declined the petition, allowing the appellate court reversals to stand. There
are, however, several remaining constitutional challenges to the CDSOA law that are now before the
CIT. The Company is unable to determine, at this time, what the ultimate outcome of litigation
regarding CDSOA will be.
There are a number of factors that can affect whether the Company receives any CDSOA distributions
and the amount of such distributions in any given year. These factors include, among other things,
potential additional changes in the law, ongoing and potential additional legal challenges to the
law and the administrative operation of the law. Accordingly, the Company cannot reasonably
estimate the amount of CDSOA distributions it will receive in future years, if any. It is possible
that court rulings might prevent the Company from receiving any CDSOA distributions in 2011 and
beyond. Any reduction of CDSOA distributions would reduce the Companys earnings and cash flow.
Quarterly Dividend
On February 9, 2011, the Companys Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.18
per share. The dividend will be paid on March 2, 2011 to shareholders of record as of February 22,
2011. This will be the 355th consecutive dividend paid on the common stock of the
Company.

d) | changes in operating costs. This includes: the effect of changes in the Companys manufacturing processes; changes in costs associated with varying levels of operations and manufacturing capacity; higher cost and availability of raw materials and energy; the Companys ability to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in raw materials and energy costs and the operation of the Companys surcharge mechanism; changes in the expected costs associated with product warranty claims; changes resulting from inventory management and cost reduction initiatives and different levels of customer demands; the effects of unplanned work stoppages; and changes in the cost of labor and benefits; |
e) | the success of the Companys operating plans, including its ability to achieve the benefits from its ongoing continuous improvement and rationalization programs; the ability of acquired companies to achieve satisfactory operating results; and the Companys ability to maintain appropriate relations with unions that represent Company associates in certain locations in order to avoid disruptions of business; |
f) | unanticipated litigation, claims or assessments. This includes, but is not limited to, claims or problems related to intellectual property, product liability or warranty, environmental issues, and taxes; |
g) | changes in worldwide financial markets, including availability of financing and interest rates, which affect: the Companys ability to raise capital or increase the Companys cost of funds; the overall performance of the Companys pension fund investments; and/or customer demand and the ability of customers to obtain financing to purchase the Companys products or equipment that contain the Companys products; and |
h) | those items identified under Item 1A. Risk Factors on pages 8 through 12. |
Additional risks relating to the Companys business, the industries in which the Company operates
or the Companys common stock may be described from time to time in the Companys filings with the
SEC. All of these risk factors are difficult to predict, are subject to material uncertainties that
may affect actual results and may be beyond the Companys control.
Except as required by the federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Changes in short-term interest rates related to several separate funding sources impact the
Companys earnings. These sources are borrowings under an Asset Securitization Agreement,
borrowings under the $500 million Senior Credit Facility, floating rate tax-exempt U.S. municipal
bonds with a weekly reset mode and short-term bank borrowings at international subsidiaries. If
the market rates for short-term borrowings increased by one-percentage-point around the globe, the
impact would be an increase in interest expense of $0.8 million with a corresponding decrease in
income from continuing operations before income taxes of the same amount. The amount was
determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on the Companys borrowing
cost, year-end debt balances by category and an estimated impact on the tax-exempt municipal bonds
interest rates.
Fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar compared to foreign currencies, including the Euro,
also impact the Companys earnings. The greatest risk relates to products shipped between the
Companys European operations and the United States. Foreign currency forward contracts are used
to hedge these intercompany transactions. Additionally, hedges are used to cover third-party
purchases of product and equipment. As of December 31, 2010, there were $205.4 million of hedges
in place. A uniform 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar against all currencies would have resulted in
a charge of $7.1 million related to these hedges, which would have partially offset the otherwise
favorable impact of the underlying currency fluctuation. In addition to the direct impact of the
hedged amounts, changes in exchange rates also affect the volume of sales or foreign currency sales
price as competitors products become more or less attractive.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and
operations of The Timken Company and its subsidiaries (the Company). All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions were eliminated upon consolidation. Investments in
affiliated companies were accounted for by the equity method, except when they qualified as
variable interest entities, in which case the investments were consolidated in accordance with
accounting rules relating to the consolidation of variable interest entities.
Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes revenue when title passes to the customer. This occurs
at the shipping point except for certain exported goods and certain foreign entities, where title
passes when the goods reach their destination. Selling prices are fixed based on purchase orders
or contractual arrangements. Shipping and handling costs were included in cost of products sold in
the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts, which
represents an estimate of the losses expected from the accounts receivable portfolio, to reduce
accounts receivable to their net realizable value. The allowance was based upon historical trends
in collections and write-offs, managements judgment of the probability of collecting accounts and
managements evaluation of business risk. The Company extends credit to customers satisfying
pre-defined credit criteria. The Company believes it has limited concentration of credit risk due
to the diversity of its customer base.
Inventories: Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with 54% valued by the
last-in, first-out (LIFO) method and the remaining 46% valued by first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
If all inventories had been valued at FIFO, inventories would have been $264.6 million and $237.7
million greater at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The components of inventories were as
follows:
December 31, | ||||||||
2010 | 2009 | |||||||
Inventories, net: |
||||||||
Manufacturing supplies |
$ | 57.9 | $ | 53.0 | ||||
Work in process and raw materials |

Finished products |
398.7 | 349.1 | ||||||
Total Inventories, net |
$ | 828.5 | $ | 671.2 | ||||
The Company recognized an increase in its LIFO reserve of $26.9 million during 2010 compared to
a decrease in LIFO reserves of $60.5 million during 2009. The increase in the LIFO reserve
recognized during 2010 was due to higher costs and quantities of inventory on hand.
Investments: Short-term investments are investments with maturities between four months and one
year and are valued at amortized cost. The Company held short-term investments with a fair value
of $15 million and a cost basis of $15 million as of December 31, 2010 and were included in other
current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. At December 31, 2009, the Companys business in
India held investments in mutual funds of $6.9 million as of December 31, 2009. These investments
were classified as available-for-sale securities and were included in other current assets on the
Consolidated Balance Sheet. Unrealized gains and losses were included in accumulated other
comprehensive loss, net of tax, on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Realized gains and losses were
included in other (expense) income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment net is valued at cost less
accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The
provision for depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method based upon the
estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful lives are approximately 30 years for buildings,
five to seven years for computer software and three to 20 years for machinery and equipment.
Depreciation expense was $179.6 million, $188.7 million and $186.3 million in 2010, 2009 and 2008,
respectively.

The impairment of long-lived assets is evaluated when events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of the asset or related group of assets may not be recoverable. If the
expected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an
impairment loss is recognized at that time to reduce the asset to the lower of its fair value or
its net book value.
In November 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the real estate related to its
former manufacturing facility in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The carrying value of the real estate was $6.0
million at December 31, 2010. The transfer of the property is expected to occur in 2012 after the
Company has completed the environmental remediation of the site. Beginning in 2012, the Company
expects to receive approximately $37.8 million, including interest, over an 18-month period once
title transfers subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Goodwill: The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at
least annually. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fourth
quarter after the annual forecasting process is completed. Furthermore, goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable in accordance with accounting
rules related to goodwill and other intangible assets.
Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with accounting rules for income
taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as net operating loss and tax credit
carryforwards. The Company records valuation allowances against deferred tax assets by tax
jurisdiction when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Accruals for
uncertain tax positions are provided for in accordance with accounting rules related to uncertainty
in income taxes. The Company records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as
a component of income tax expense.
Foreign Currency Translation: Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries, other than those located in
highly inflationary countries, are translated at the rate of exchange in effect on the balance
sheet date; income and expenses are translated at the average rates of exchange prevailing during
the year. The related translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of accumulated
other comprehensive loss. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions and the
translation of financial statements of subsidiaries in highly inflationary countries are included
in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company realized foreign currency exchange gains of
$4.3 million and $8.2 million in 2010 and 2009, respectively, and a foreign currency exchange loss
of $5.9 million in 2008.
Stock-Based Compensation: The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with
accounting rules for stock compensation, which require that the fair value of share-based awards be
estimated on the date of grant using an option pricing model. The fair value of the award is
recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the accompanying Consolidated
Statements of Income.
Earnings Per Share: Earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the dilutive impact of
potential common shares for share-based compensation.

Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Derivative Instruments: The Company accounts for its derivative instruments in accordance with
amended accounting rules regarding derivative instruments and hedging activities. The Company
recognizes all derivatives on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Derivatives that are
not designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. If the derivative is
designated and qualifies as a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair
value of the derivatives are either offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets,
liabilities or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive loss until
the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The Companys holdings of forward foreign currency
exchange contracts qualify as derivatives pursuant to the criteria established in derivative
accounting guidance, of which the Company has designated certain of those derivatives as hedges.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance that
amends the accounting and disclosure requirements for the consolidation of variable interest
entities. The implementation of the new accounting guidance related to variable interest entities,
effective January 1, 2010, did not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations
and financial condition.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and
assumptions are reviewed and updated regularly to reflect recent experience.
Reclassifications: Certain amounts reported in the 2009 and 2008 Consolidated Financial Statements
have been reclassified to conform to the 2010 presentation.
Note 2 Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions
On December 31, 2010, the Company purchased substantially all the assets of City Scrap and Salvage
Co. in Akron, Ohio (City Scrap) for $6.5 million. City Scrap, which employs 30 people, has a
longstanding relationship with the Company, supplying the Company for more than 15 years as a local
source of the ferrous scrap needed for its steelmaking operations. The City Scrap acquisition will
streamline the supply of scrap to Timkens steel operations, improving efficiency and increasing
supply chain reliability. City Scrap had revenues of approximately $17 million in 2010. The
results of the operations of City Scrap will be included in the Companys Consolidated Statements
of Income effective January 1, 2011.
On September 21, 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of QM Bearings and Power Transmission,
Incorporated (QM Bearings), based in Ferndale, Washington, for $16.9 million, including cash
acquired of $0.8 million. QM Bearings also has manufacturing facilities in Prince George, British
Columbia, Canada and Wuxi, China. QM Bearings manufactures spherical roller-bearing steel-housed
units and elastomeric and steel couplings used in demanding processes such as sawmill, logging and
cement operations. QM Bearings had sales of approximately $14 million in the last twelve months
prior to the acquisition. QM Bearings has approximately 100 employees in the United States, Canada
and China. The results of the operations of QM Bearings were included in the Companys Consolidated
Statements of Income for the periods subsequent to the effective date of the acquisition.
In November 2008, the Company purchased the assets of EXTEX, Ltd. (EXTEX), a leading designer and
marketer of high-quality replacement engine parts for the aerospace aftermarket, for $28.8 million,
including acquisition costs. The acquisition added most of EXTEXs nearly 600 Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) parts manufacturer approval (PMA) components to the Companys existing
portfolio of more than 1,400 PMAs. This expanded PMA base further positioned the Company to offer
comprehensive fleet-support programs, including asset management that maximizes uptime for aircraft
operators. EXTEX had 2007 sales of approximately $15.4 million. The results of the operations of
EXTEX are included in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Income for the periods subsequent to
the effective date of the acquisition. The purchase price allocation of EXTEX included in-process
PMAs. Generally accepted accounting principles do not allow the capitalization of research and
development of this nature; therefore, a charge of $0.9 million was included in cost of products
sold in the Consolidated Statement of Income in 2008.
In February 2008, the Company purchased the assets of Boring Specialties, Inc. (BSI), a leading
provider of a wide range of precision deep-hole oil and gas drilling and extraction products and
services, for $56.9 million, including acquisition costs. The acquisition extended the Companys
presence in the energy market by adding BSIs value-added products to the Companys current range
of alloy steel products for oil and gas customers. The results of the operations of BSI were
included in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Income for the periods subsequent to the
effective date of the acquisition.

Divestiture
On December 31, 2009, the Company completed the sale of the assets of its Needle Roller Bearings
(NRB) operations to JTEKT Corporation (JTEKT). The Company
received approximately $303.6 million in
cash proceeds for these operations and retained certain receivables of approximately $26 million.
The NRB operations primarily serve the automotive original-equipment market sectors and manufacture
highly engineered needle roller bearings, including an extensive range of radial and thrust needle
roller bearings as well as bearing assemblies and loose needles for automotive and industrial
applications. The NRB operations have facilities in the United States, Canada, Europe and China.
The NRB operations had 2009 sales of approximately $407 million and were previously included in the
Companys Mobile Industries, Process Industries and Aerospace and Defense reportable segments. The
Mobile Industries segment accounted for approximately 80% of the 2009 sales of the NRB operations.
The results of operations were reclassified as discontinued operations during the third quarter of
2009, as the NRB operations met all the criteria for discontinued operations, including assets held
for sale. Previous results for 2009 and 2008 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation
under discontinued operations.
During the third quarter of 2009, the net assets associated with the then pending sale of the NRB
operations were reclassified to assets held for sale and adjusted for impairment and written down
to their fair value of $301 million. The Company based its fair value on the expected proceeds
from the sale to JTEKT. At September 30, 2009, the carrying value of the net assets of the NRB
operations exceeded the expected proceeds to be realized upon completion of the sale by $33.7
million. The Company subsequently recognized an after-tax loss of $12.7 million on the sale of the
NRB operations during the fourth quarter of 2009. The after-tax loss on the sale exceeded the
initial estimate primarily due to revisions to estimated working capital adjustments. In 2010, the
Company recognized an after-tax gain of $7.4 million primarily due to final working capital
adjustments.

Note 5 Financing Arrangements
Short-term debt at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was as follows:
2010 | 2009 | |||||||
Variable-rate lines of credit for certain of the Companys foreign subsidiaries with
various banks with interest rates ranging from 2.4% to 5.10% and 1.98% to 5.05%
at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively |
$ | 22.4 | $ | 26.3 | ||||
Short-term debt |
$ | 22.4 | $ | 26.3 | ||||
The lines of credit for certain of the Companys foreign subsidiaries provide for borrowings up to
$294.7 million. Most of these lines of credit are uncommitted. At December 31, 2010, the Company
had borrowings outstanding of $22.4 million, which reduced the availability under these facilities
to $272.3 million.
The weighted average interest rate on short-term debt during the year was 4.3% in 2010, 3.7% in
2009 and 4.1% in 2008. The weighted average interest rate on short-term debt outstanding at
December 31, 2010 and 2009 was 3.6% and 4.0%, respectively.
The Company has a $150 million Accounts Receivable Securitization Financing Agreement (Asset
Securitization Agreement), which matures in two years. On November 10, 2010, the Company renewed
its Asset Securitization Agreement for $150 million. Prior to the renewal, the Companys Asset
Securitization Agreement was $100 million. Under the terms of the Asset Securitization Agreement,
the Company sells, on an ongoing basis, certain domestic trade receivables to Timken Receivables
Corporation, a wholly-owned consolidated subsidiary that in turn uses the trade receivables to
secure borrowings which are funded through a vehicle that issues commercial paper in the short-term
market. Borrowings under the agreement are limited to certain borrowing base calculations. Any
amounts outstanding under this Asset Securitization Agreement would be reported on the Companys
Consolidated Balance Sheets in short-term debt. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no
outstanding borrowings under the Asset Securitization Agreement. The
cost of this credit facility, which is the commercial paper rate plus program fees, is considered a financing cost and is
included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. This rate was 1.34%, 1.53%
and 2.59%, at December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Interest paid was approximately $36 million in 2010, $39 million in 2009 and $46 million in 2008.
This differs from interest expense due to the timing of payments and interest capitalized of
approximately $0.7 million in 2010, $1.8 million in 2009 and $3.0 million in 2008.
On September 9, 2009, the Company completed a public offering of $250 million of fixed-rate 6.0%
unsecured Senior Notes, due in 2014. The net proceeds from the sale were used for the repayment of
the Companys fixed-rate 5.75% unsecured Senior Notes that were due to mature in February 2010.
On July 10, 2009, the Company entered into a new $500 million Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
(Senior Credit Facility). At December 31, 2010, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under
its Senior Credit Facility but had letters of credit outstanding totaling $17.2 million, which
reduced the availability under the Senior Credit Facility to $482.8 million. The Senior Credit
Facility matures on July 10, 2012. Under the Senior Credit Facility, the Company has three
financial covenants: a consolidated leverage ratio, a consolidated interest coverage ratio and a
consolidated minimum tangible net worth test. At December 31, 2010, the Company was in full
compliance with the covenants under the Senior Credit Facility.
Advanced Green Components, LLC (AGC) is a joint venture of the Company. The Company is the
guarantor of $3.5 million of AGCs $8.3 million credit facility with US Bank as of December 31,
2010.
Certain of the Companys foreign subsidiaries have facilities that also provide for long-term
borrowings up to $27.4 million. At December 31, 2010, the Company had borrowings outstanding of
$18.2 million, which reduced the availability under these long-term facilities to $9.2 million.
The Company and its subsidiaries lease a variety of real property and equipment. Rent expense
under operating leases amounted to $38.1 million, $43.5 million and $45.7 million in 2010, 2009 and
2008, respectively. At December 31, 2010, future minimum lease payments for noncancelable
operating leases totaled $118.2 million and are payable as follows: 2011$29.0 million;
2012$23.1 million; 2013$19.1 million; 2014$16.0 million; 2015$13.7 million; and $17.3
million thereafter.

The following discussion explains the major impairment and restructuring charges recorded for the
periods presented; however, it is not intended to reflect a comprehensive discussion of all amounts
in the table above.
Selling and Administrative Cost Reductions
In March 2009, the Company announced the realignment of its organization to improve efficiency and
reduce costs as a result of the economic downturn. During 2009, the Company recorded $10.7 million
of severance and related benefit costs related to this initiative to eliminate approximately 280
positions. Of the $10.7 million charge for 2009, $4.5 million related to the Mobile Industries
segment, $2.0 million related to the Process Industries segment, $1.6 million related to the Steel
segment, $0.6 million related to the Aerospace and Defense segment and $2.0 million related to
Corporate positions. Overall, the Company eliminated approximately 500 sales and administrative positions in
2009.
Manufacturing Workforce Reductions
During 2010, the Company recorded $5.0 million in severance and related benefit costs to eliminate
approximately 200 positions to properly align its business as a result of the downturn in the
economy and expected market demand. Of the $5.0 million charge for 2010, $2.0 million related to
the Aerospace and Defense segment, $1.6 million related to the Process Industries segment and $1.4
million related to the Mobile Industries segment. In addition, the Company recorded $1.8 million
of exit costs in 2010 related to these reductions and costs associated with the consolidation of
warehouses. During 2009, the Company recorded $32.2 million in severance and related benefit
costs, including a curtailment of pension benefits of $0.9 million, to eliminate approximately
3,000 manufacturing positions to properly align its business as a result of the current downturn in
the economy and expected market demand. Of the $32.2 million charge, $21.5 million related to the
Mobile Industries segment, $6.5 million related to the Process Industries segment, $2.5 million
related to the Aerospace and Defense segment and $1.7 million related to the Steel segment.
2008 Workforce Reductions
In December 2008, the Company recorded $4.2 million in severance and related benefit costs to
eliminate approximately 110 manufacturing and sales and administrative employees as a result of the
downturn in the economy that the Company began to experience. Of the $4.2 million charge, $2.0
million related to the Mobile Industries segment, $0.8 million related to the Process Industries
segment, $1.1 million related to the Steel segment and $0.3 million related to Corporate positions.
Bearings and Power Transmission Reorganization
During the first quarter of 2008, the Company began to operate under two major business groups:
the Steel Group and the Bearings and Power Transmission Group. The Bearings and Power Transmission
Group is composed of three reportable segments: Mobile Industries, Process Industries and
Aerospace and Defense. These organizational changes enabled the Company to streamline operations
and eliminate redundancies. As a result of these actions, the Company recorded $2.5 million during
the year ended December 31, 2008 of severance and related benefit costs related to this initiative.
The severance charge of $2.5 million was attributable to 76 employees and primarily related to the
Mobile Industries segment.
Torrington Campus
On July 20, 2009, the Company completed the sale of the remaining portion of its Torrington,
Connecticut office complex. In
anticipation of recording a loss upon completion of the sale of the office complex, the Company
recorded an impairment charge of $6.4 million during the second quarter of 2009. During the third
quarter of 2009, the Company recorded an additional loss of approximately $0.7 million in other
(expense) income, net upon completion of the sale of this portion of the office complex.

Impairment and Restructuring Charges (continued)
Mobile Industries
In March 2007, the Company announced the closure of its manufacturing facility in Sao Paulo,
Brazil. The Company completed the closure of this manufacturing facility on March 31, 2010.
Pretax costs associated with the closure are expected to be
approximately $40 million, which includes
restructuring costs and rationalization costs recorded in cost of products sold and selling,
general and administrative expenses. The expected costs increased from $30 million to $40 million
due to higher site remediation costs. Mobile Industries has incurred cumulative pretax costs of
approximately $34.0 million as of December 31, 2010 related to this closure. In 2010, 2009 and
2008, the Company recorded $1.3 million, $5.2 million and $2.2 million, respectively, of severance
and related benefit costs and $4.4 million, $1.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of exit
costs associated with the closure of this facility. In 2010, the Company also recorded impairment
charges of $1.1 million associated with this closure. In 2010 and 2008, $4.4 million and $0.8
million, respectively, of the exit costs recorded related to environmental exit costs. The
impairment charges were recorded as a result of the carrying value of certain machinery and
equipment exceeding their expected future cash flows.
In 2009, the Company recorded impairment charges of $71.7 million for certain fixed assets in the
United States, Canada, France and China related to several automotive product lines. The Company
reviewed these assets for impairment during the fourth quarter due to declining sales and as a
result of the Companys initiative to exit programs where adequate returns could not be obtained
through pricing initiatives. Incorporating this information into its annual long-term forecasting
process, the Company determined the undiscounted projected future cash flows for these product
lines could not support the carrying value of these asset groups. The Company then arrived at fair
value by either valuing the assets in use where the assets were still producing product or in
exchange where the assets had been idled. See Note 15 Fair Value for further discussion of how
the Company arrived at fair value.
The Company recorded an impairment charge of $48.8 million in 2008, representing the write-off of
goodwill associated with the Mobile Industries segment. Of the $48.8 million impairment charge,
$30.4 million was reclassified to discontinued operations. The Company is required to review
goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment annually. The Company performed this
annual test during the fourth quarter of 2008 using an income approach (discounted cash flow model)
and a market approach. As a result of the economic downturn that began in the second half of 2008,
managements forecasts of earnings and cash flow had declined significantly. The Company utilized
these forecasts for the income approach as part of the goodwill impairment review. As a result of
the lower earnings and cash flow forecasts, the Company determined that the Mobile Industries
segment could not support the carrying value of its goodwill. Refer to Note 8 Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets for additional discussion.
In addition to the above charges, the Company recorded $3.1 million of environmental exit costs in
2010 at the site of its former plant in Columbus, Ohio.
Process Industries
In May 2004, the Company announced plans to rationalize its three bearing plants in Canton, Ohio
within the Process Industries segment. In 2009, the Company closed two of the three bearing
plants. The Company expects to incur pretax costs of $70 million to $80 million (including pretax
cash costs of approximately $40 million) associated with these rationalization plans.
In 2010,
the Company recorded $1.0 million of exit costs primarily for demolition
costs as a result of Process Industries rationalization plans. In 2009, the Company recorded impairment charges of $27.7 million, exit costs of $1.6 million and
severance and related benefits of $0.6 million related to these rationalization plans. The
significant impairment charge was recorded during the second quarter of 2009 as a result of the
rapid deterioration of the market sectors served by one of the rationalized plants resulting in the
carrying value of the fixed assets for this plant exceeding their projected undiscounted future
cash flows. The fair value was determined based on market comparisons to similar assets. In 2008,
the Company recorded exit costs of $1.8 million related to these
rationalization plans. The Process Industries segment has incurred cumulative
pretax costs of approximately $71.2 million as of December 31, 2010 for these plans, including
rationalization costs recorded in cost of products sold and selling, general and administrative
expenses. See Note 15 Fair Value for further discussion of how the Company arrived at fair value.
In October 2009, the Company announced the consolidation of its distribution centers in Bucyrus,
Ohio and Spartanburg, South Carolina into a leased facility near the existing Spartanburg location.
The consolidation of the Companys distribution centers reflects that nearly 90% of all
manufactured product inbound to the Companys distribution centers originates in the southeastern
United States, and the new location will significantly reduce the average number of miles required
to ship goods and inventory throughout the supply chain. The closure of the Bucyrus Distribution
Center will eliminate approximately 260 positions. Pretax costs associated with this initiative
are expected to be approximately $5 million to $10 million by the end of 2011. During 2009, the
Company recorded $4.5 million of severance and related benefit costs related to this closure.
During 2010, the Company reduced its accruals for severance and related benefits by $0.7 million.

Aerospace and Defense
In 2010, the Company recorded fixed asset impairment charges of $2.0 million at its location in
Mesa, Arizona. The impairment charges were recorded as a result of the carrying value of certain
machinery and equipment exceeding their expected future cash flows.
Impairment and restructuring charges by segment were as follows:

and related benefits, which is expected to be paid by the end of 2011. The remainder of the
balance primarily represented environmental exit costs. The restructuring accrual at December 31,
2009 excluded costs related to the curtailment of pension benefit plans of $0.9 million.

Note 7 Contingencies
The Company and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries have been designated as potentially
responsible parties by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for site investigation and
remediation under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
(Superfund) with respect to certain sites. The claims for remediation have been asserted against
numerous other entities, which are believed to be financially solvent and are expected to fulfill
their proportionate share of the obligation. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had an accrual
of $14.2 million for environmental matters, which are probable and reasonably estimable. This
accrual is recorded based upon the best estimate of costs to be incurred in light of the progress
made in determining the magnitude of remediation costs, the timing and extent of remedial actions
required by governmental authorities and the amount of the Companys liability in proportion to
other responsible parties. Approximately $12.2 million of the $14.2 million is included in the
rollforward of the restructuring accrual as of December 31, 2010 discussed in Note 6 Impairment
and Restructuring Charges.
In addition, the Company is subject to various lawsuits, claims and proceedings, which arise in the
ordinary course of its business. The Company accrues costs associated with legal and non-income
tax matters when they become probable and reasonably estimable. Accruals are established based on
the estimated undiscounted cash flows to settle the obligations and are not reduced by any
potential recoveries from insurance or other indemnification claims. Management believes that any
ultimate liability with respect to these actions, in excess of amounts provided, will not
materially affect the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company is also the guarantor of debt for AGC, an equity investment of the Company. The
Company guarantees $3.5 million of AGCs outstanding long-term debt of $8.3 million with US Bank.
In case of default by AGC, the Company has agreed to pay the outstanding balance, pursuant to the
guarantee, due as of the date of default. The debt matures on July 17, 2011.
Product Warranties
The Company provides limited warranties on certain of its products. The Company accrues
liabilities for warranty policies based upon specific claims and a review of historical warranty
claim experience in accordance with accounting rules relating to contingent liabilities. The
Company records and accounts for its warranty reserve based on specific claim incidents. Should
the Company become aware of a specific potential warranty claim for which liability is probable and
reasonably estimable, a specific charge is recorded and accounted for accordingly. Adjustments are
made quarterly to the accruals as claim data and historical experience change.
The following is a rollforward of the warranty reserves for 2010 and 2009:

Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Note 8 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least
annually. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fourth quarter
after the annual forecasting process is completed. Furthermore, goodwill and indefinite-lived
intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Each interim period, management of the Company
assesses whether or not an indicator of impairment is present that would necessitate that a
goodwill impairment analysis be performed in an interim period other than during the fourth
quarter.
The Company reviews goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level. The Companys reporting
units are the same as its reportable segments: Mobile Industries, Process Industries, Aerospace
and Defense and Steel. The Company prepares its goodwill impairment analysis by comparing the
estimated fair value of each reporting unit, using an income approach (a discounted cash flow
model) as well as a market approach, with its carrying value. The income approach and the market
approach are equally weighted in arriving at fair value, which the Company has applied
consistently.

Note 8 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (continued)
In 2010 and 2009, no goodwill impairment loss was recorded. In 2008, as a result of the lower
earnings and cash flow forecasts, the Company determined that the Mobile Industries segment could
not support the carrying value of its goodwill. As a result, the Company recorded a pretax
impairment loss of $48.8 million. Of the $48.8 million, $30.4 million was classified as
discontinued operations. The remaining $18.4 million was reported in impairment and restructuring
charges in the Consolidated Statement of Income at December 31, 2008.
Changes in the carrying value of goodwill were as follows:

legal or estimated useful lives, with useful lives ranging from two years to 20 years. Intangibles
assets subject to amortization acquired in 2010 were assigned useful lives of 10 to 17 years and
had a weighted average amortization period of 15.8 years.
Amortization expense for intangible assets was $9.4 million, $12.8 million and $14.5 million for
the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Amortization expense for
intangible assets is estimated to be approximately $9.5 million in 2011; $9.1 million in 2012; $7.6
million in 2013; $7.4 million in 2014 and $7.4 million in 2015.
Note 9 Stock Compensation Plans
Under the Companys long-term incentive plan, shares of common stock have been made available
to grant, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, to officers
and key employees in the form of stock option awards. Stock option awards typically have a ten-year
term and generally vest in 25% increments annually beginning on the first anniversary of the date
of grant. In addition to stock option awards, the Company has granted restricted shares under the
long-term incentive plan. Restricted shares typically vest in 25% increments annually beginning on
the first year anniversary of the date of grant and are expensed over the vesting period.
During
2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $8.9 million
($5.6 million after-tax or $0.06 diluted share), $7.0 million ($4.5 million after-tax or $0.05
diluted share) and $6.0 million ($3.8 million after-tax or $0.04 diluted share), respectively, for
stock option awards.

Table of Contents
Note 9 Stock Compensation Plans (continued)
The fair value of significant stock option awards granted during 2010, 2009 and 2008 was
estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing method with the following
assumptions:
2010 | 2009 | 2008 | ||||||||||
Weighted average fair value per option |

Expected stock volatility |
0.470 | 0.430 | 0.351 | |||||||||
Expected life years |
6 | 6 | 6 | |||||||||
Historical information was the primary basis for the selection of the expected dividend yield,
expected volatility and the expected lives of the options. The dividend yield was calculated based
upon the last dividend prior to the grant compared to the trailing 12 months daily stock prices.
The risk-free interest rate was based upon yields of U.S. zero coupon issues with a term equal to
the expected life of the option being valued. Forfeitures were estimated at 4%.

Note 9 Stock Compensation Plans (continued)
The Company offers a performance unit component under its long-term incentive plan to certain
employees in which awards are earned based on Company performance measured by two metrics over a
three-year performance period. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors can elect to
make payments that become due in the form of cash or shares of the Companys common stock. A total
of 69,440, 47,083 and 51,225 performance units were granted in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Performance units granted, if fully earned, would represent 690,238 shares of the Companys common
stock at December 31, 2010. Since the inception of the plan, 103,686 performance units were
canceled. Each performance unit has a cash value of $100.
As of December 31, 2010, a total of 681,566 deferred shares, deferred dividend credits and
restricted shares have been awarded and are not vested. The Company distributed 372,942, 388,076
and 371,925 shares in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, due to the vesting of these awards. The
shares awarded in 2010, 2009 and 2008 totaled 400,980, 372,398 and 306,434, respectively. The
Company recognized compensation expense of $8.0 million, $7.9 million and $10.8 million, for the
years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, relating to restricted shares and
deferred shares.
As of December 31, 2010, the Company had unrecognized compensation expense of $23.0 million related
to stock option awards, restricted shares and deferred shares. The unrecognized compensation
expense is expected to be recognized over a total weighted average period of two years. The number
of shares available for future grants for all plans at December 31, 2010 was 3,421,787.
Note 10 Research and Development
The Company performs research and development under Company-funded programs and under contracts
with the federal government and others. Expenditures committed to research and development
amounted to $49.9 million, $50 million and $64.1 million in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Of
these amounts, $1.6 million, $1.7 million and $5.1 million respectively, were funded by others.
Expenditures may fluctuate from year to year depending on special projects and needs.
Note 11 Equity Investments
Investments accounted for under the equity method were approximately $9.4 million and $9.5
million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Approximately $6.8 million of the $9.4
million at December 31, 2010 was classified as assets held for sale and was reported in other
current assets. The remaining balance was reported in other non-current assets on the Consolidated
Balance Sheets.
Equity investments are reviewed for impairment when circumstances (such as lower-than-expected
financial performance or change in strategic direction) indicate that the carrying value of the
investment may not be recoverable. If impairment does exist, the equity investment is written down
to its fair value with a corresponding charge to the Consolidated Statements of Income. During
2010 and 2008, no impairment charges were recorded related to the Companys equity investments.
During 2009, the Company recorded impairment charges on its investments in International Components
Supply LTDA and Endorsia.com International AB of $4.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively. See
Note 15 Fair Value for further discussion of how the Company arrived at fair value.
Advanced Green Components
During 2002, the Companys Automotive Group formed a joint venture, AGC, with Sanyo Special Steel
Co., Ltd. (Sanyo) and Showa Seiko Co., Ltd. (Showa). AGC is engaged in the business of converting
steel to machined rings for tapered bearings and other related products. During the third quarter
of 2006, AGC refinanced its long-term debt and the Company guaranteed half of the balance at that
time. The Company currently guarantees $3.5 million of this obligation. The Company concluded
that AGC was a variable interest entity and that the Company was the primary beneficiary.
Therefore, the Company consolidated AGC, effective September 30, 2006. At December 31, 2010, the
net assets (liabilities) of AGC were $(1.3) million, primarily consisting of the following:
inventory of $3.1 million; property, plant and equipment of $12.7 million; short-term and long-term
debt of $9.4 million; and other non-current liabilities of $7.4 million. All of AGCs assets are
collateral for its obligations. Except for AGCs indebtedness for which the Company is a
guarantor, AGCs creditors have no recourse to the general credit of the Company.
The Company has no other variable interest entities, other than AGC, for which it is a primary
beneficiary.

Note 12 Retirement and Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company sponsors defined contribution retirement and savings plans covering substantially
all employees in the United States and employees at certain non-U.S. locations. The Company has
contributed Timken common stock to certain of these plans based on formulas established in the
respective plan agreements. At December 31, 2010, the plans held 7,521,634 shares of the Companys
common stock with a fair value of $359.0 million. Company contributions to the plans, including
performance sharing, were $21.1 million in 2010, $19.3 million in 2009 and $28.5 million in 2008.
The Company paid dividends totaling $4.6 million in 2010, $5.1 million in 2009 and $7.1 million in
2008 to plans holding shares of the Companys common stock.
The Company and its subsidiaries sponsor a number of defined benefit pension plans, which cover
eligible employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. These plans are generally
noncontributory. Pension benefits earned are generally based on years of service and compensation
during active employment. The cash contributions for the Companys defined benefit pension plans
were $230.0 million and $62.6 million in 2010 and 2009, respectively.
The Company and its subsidiaries also sponsor several funded and unfunded postretirement plans that
provide health care and life insurance benefits for eligible retirees and dependents. Depending on
retirement date and employee classification, certain health care plans contain contribution and
cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. The remaining health care and life
insurance plans are noncontributory.
The Company recognizes the overfunded status or underfunded status (i.e., the difference between
the Companys fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit obligations) as either an asset
or a liability for its defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans on the Consolidated
Balance Sheet, with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income, net of
tax. The adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income represents the current year net
unrecognized actuarial gains and losses and unrecognized prior service costs. These amounts will
be recognized in future periods as net periodic benefit cost.
The following tables summarize the net periodic benefit cost information and the related
assumptions used to measure the net period benefit cost for the years ended December 31:

The discount rate assumption is based on current rates of high-quality long-term corporate
bonds over the same period that benefit payments will be required to be made. The expected rate of
return on plan assets assumption is based on the weighted-average expected return on the various
asset classes in the plans portfolio. The asset class return is developed using historical asset
return performance as well as current market conditions such as inflation, interest rates and
equity market performance.
Effective December 31, 2009, the Company sold its NRB operations. As part of the sale, JTEKT
assumed responsibility for the pension obligations with respect to current employees, as well as
certain retired employees. The net periodic benefit cost related to these obligations included
$2.6 million and $2.8 million in 2009 and 2008, respectively, related to the NRB operations and has
been classified as discontinued operations. In addition, the Company recognized a total settlement
of $17.6 million in 2009 as a result of JTEKT assuming responsibility for certain pension
obligations.
For expense purposes in 2010, the Company applied a discount rate of 6.00% to its U.S. defined
benefit pension plans and 5.75% for the postretirement welfare plans. For expense purposes, in
2011 the Company will apply a discount rate of 5.75% to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans and
5.50% for the postretirement welfare plans. A 0.25 percentage point reduction in the discount rate
would increase pension expense by approximately $4.6 million for the defined benefit pension plans
and $0.5 million for the postretirement benefit plans for 2011.
For expense purposes in 2010, the Company applied an expected rate of return of 8.75% for the
Companys U.S. pension plan assets. For expense purposes in 2011, the Company will apply an
expected rate of return on plan assets of 8.5%. A 0.25 percentage point reduction in the expected
rate of return would increase pension expense by approximately $5.7 million for 2011. In addition,
at the end of 2010 the Company established a Voluntary Employee Benefit Association (VEBA) for
certain bargained associates retiree medical benefits. Beginning in 2011, the Company will apply
an expected rate of return of 5.00% to the VEBA assets for expense purposes. The expected return
will decrease expense for postretirement benefits by approximately $2.7 million in 2011.

The presentation in the above tables for amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive

The following table summarizes assumptions used to measure the benefit obligation for the defined
benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans at December 31:

Defined benefit pension plans in the United States represent 86% of the benefit obligation and
87% of the fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2010.
Certain of the Companys defined benefit pension plans are overfunded as of December 31, 2010. As
a result, $6.9 million and $8.7 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, are included
in other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The current portion of accrued
pension cost, which is included in salaries, wages and benefits on the Consolidated Balance Sheets,
was $5.7 million and $5.6 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The current portion
of accrued postretirement benefit cost, which is included in salaries, wages and benefits on the
Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $58.8 million and $58.5 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively. In 2010, the current portion of accrued pension cost and accrued postretirement
benefit cost relates to unfunded plans and represents the actuarial present value of expected
payments related to the plans to be made over the next 12 months.
The accumulated benefit obligations at December 31, 2010 exceeded the market value of plan assets
for the majority of the Companys pension plans. For these plans, the projected benefit obligation
was $2.8 billion, the accumulated benefit obligation was $2.7 billion and the fair value of plan
assets was $2.3 billion at December 31, 2010.
Due to significant increases in the global capital markets in 2010, investment performance
increased the value of the Companys pension assets by 15%.
As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Companys defined benefit pension plans did not hold a
material amount of shares of the Companys common stock.
The estimated net loss and prior service cost for the defined benefit pension plans that will be
amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next
fiscal year are $59.7 million and $9.4 million, respectively.
The estimated net loss and prior service credit for the postretirement plans that will be amortized
from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal
year are $4.7 million and $(0.3) million, respectively.
For measurement purposes, the Company assumed a weighted average annual rate of increase in the per
capita cost (health care cost trend rate) for medical benefits of 9.2% for 2011, declining
gradually to 5.0% in 2078 and thereafter; and 10.5% for 2011, declining gradually to 5.0% in 2078
and thereafter for prescription drug benefits and HMO benefits.
The assumed health care cost trend rate may have a significant effect on the amounts reported. A
one percentage point increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate would increase the 2010
total service and interest cost components by $1.0 million and would increase the postretirement
benefit obligation by $17.9 million. A one percentage point decrease would provide corresponding
reductions of $0.9 million and $16.2 million, respectively.

12 Retirement and Postretirement Benefit Plans (continued)
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) was enacted on March 23, 2010. PPACA
consists of a broad range of provisions that may impact future plan design and administrative cost.
The Companys actuary determined the impact PPACA has on the accumulated postretirement benefit
obligation, to the extent measurable. The effect of PPACA resulted in an increase in the reported
postretirement benefit obligation of approximately $3.5 million. The net periodic postretirement
benefit cost for 2010 was not impacted by PPACA. It has been estimated that the 2011 net periodic
postretirement benefit cost will increase by approximately $0.6 million to reflect the impact of
PPACA.
The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Medicare Act)
was signed into law on December 8, 2003. The Medicare Act provides for prescription drug benefits
under Medicare Part D and contains a subsidy to plan sponsors who provide actuarially equivalent
prescription plans. The Companys actuary determined that the prescription drug benefit provided
by the Companys postretirement plan is considered to be actuarially equivalent to the benefit
provided under the Medicare Act. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 715,
Compensation Retirement Benefits, all measures of the accumulated postretirement benefit
obligation or net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the financial statements or accompanying
notes reflect the effects of the Medicare Act on the plan for the entire fiscal year.
The effect on the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
attributed to past service cost as of December 31, 2010 was a
reduction of $7.6 million and the effect on the amortization of
actuarial losses, service cost and interest cost components of net
periodic benefit cost was a reduction of $2.3 million for 2010.
The 2010 expected subsidy was $3.3 million, of which $1.8 million was received prior
to December 31, 2010.
Plan Assets:
The Companys target allocation for U.S. pension plan assets, as well as the actual pension plan
asset allocations as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:
Percentage of Pension Plan Assets at | ||||||||||||
Current Target | December 31, | |||||||||||
Asset Category | Allocation | 2010 | 2009 | |||||||||

Debt securities |
35% to 45 | % | 41 | % | 39 | % | ||||||
Total |
100 | % | 100 | % | 100 | % | ||||||
The Company recognizes its overall responsibility to ensure that the assets of its various
defined benefit pension plans are managed effectively and prudently and in compliance with its
policy guidelines and all applicable laws. Preservation of capital is important; however, the
Company also recognizes that appropriate levels of risk are necessary to allow its investment
managers to achieve satisfactory long-term results consistent with the objectives and the fiduciary
character of the pension funds. Asset allocations are established in a manner consistent with
projected plan liabilities, benefit payments and expected rates of return for various asset
classes. The expected rate of return for the investment portfolio is based on expected rates of
return for various asset classes, as well as historical asset class and fund performance.

The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for those investments of the Companys
pension assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2010:
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit
price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value
into the following hierarchy:
Level 1 | | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | ||||
Level 2 | | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. | ||||

Cash and cash equivalents are valued at redemption value. Government and agency securities are
valued at the closing price reported in the active market on which the individual securities are
traded. Certain corporate bonds are valued at the closing price reported in the active market in
which the bond is traded. Bonds are not traded on a daily basis and
there are multiple pricing services that provide input for closing
price valuations.
Equity securities (both common and preferred stock) are valued at the
closing price reported in the active market in which the individual security is traded. Common
collective funds and asset-backed securities are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets
in active markets. When such prices are unavailable, the Trustee determines a valuation from the
market maker dealing in the particular security. The value of limited partnerships is based upon
the general partners own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in
pricing the assets and liabilities of the partnership.

On February 12, 2009, the Company was informed of alleged irregularities in the operation of an
equity-related investment in its defined benefit pension plans. A court-appointed receiver is now
in control of the investment firm and is conducting an ongoing investigation into the matter. In
the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company reduced the value of this investment to its net realizable
value of $19.3 million (the original investment was $50 million), reflecting the receivers
preliminary findings. The net realizable value of this investment may be more or less than
estimated. However, the Company believes this investment is properly valued at December 31, 2010.
In July 2010, the Company received $20 million of insurance proceeds related to the loss. The
insurance proceeds were sent to the pension trust and redeployed into other assets within defined
benefit pension plans.

13 Segment Information
Description of types of products and services from which each reportable segment derives its
revenues
The Companys reportable segments are business units that target different industry segments. Each
reportable segment is managed separately because of the need to specifically address customer needs
in these different industries.
The Mobile Industries segment includes global sales of bearings, power transmission components and
other products and services (other than steel) to a diverse customer base, including original
equipment manufacturers and their suppliers of passenger cars, light trucks, medium to heavy-duty
trucks, rail cars, locomotives, agricultural, construction and mining equipment. The Mobile
Industries segment also includes aftermarket distribution operations for automotive applications.
The Process Industries segment includes global sales of bearings, power transmission components and
other products and services (other than steel) to a diverse customer base including those in the
power transmission, energy and heavy industry market sectors. The Process Industries segment also
includes aftermarket distribution operations for products other than steel and automotive
applications.

Note
13 Segment Information (continued)
The Aerospace and Defense segment includes sales of bearings, helicopter transmission systems,
rotor head assemblies, turbine engine components, gears and other precision flight-critical
components for commercial and military aviation applications. The Aerospace and Defense segment
also provides aftermarket services, including repair and overhaul of engines, transmissions and
fuel controls as well as aerospace bearing repair and component reconditioning. The Aerospace and
Defense segment also includes sales of bearings and related products for health and positioning
control applications.
The Steel segment includes sales of low and intermediate alloy and carbon grade steel in a wide
range of solid and tubular sections with a variety of finishes. The Company also manufactures
custom-made steel products including precision steel components. Approximately less than 10% of
the Companys steel is consumed in its bearing operations. In addition, sales are made to other
anti-friction bearing companies and to aircraft, automotive, forging, tooling, oil and gas drilling
industries and steel service centers.
Measurement of segment profit or loss and segment assets
The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on return on capital and profitable
growth. The primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each
segment is adjusted EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes, excluding the effects of amounts
related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations such as
impairment and restructuring charges, manufacturing rationalization and integration costs, one-time
gains and losses on disposal of non-strategic assets, allocated receipts or payments made under the
U.S. Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA), gains and losses on the dissolution of a
subsidiary, acquisition-related currency exchange gains, and other items similar in nature).
Beginning in 2011, the primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance
of each segment will be EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes, including the effects of amounts
related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations such as
impairment and restructuring charges, manufacturing rationalization and integration costs, one-time
gains and losses on disposal of non-strategic assets, allocated receipts or payments made under the
CDSOA, gains and losses on the dissolution of a subsidiary, acquisition-related currency exchange
gains, and other items similar in nature). The change in 2011 is primarily due to the completion of
most of the Companys previously-announced restructuring initiatives. The accounting policies of
the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting
policies. Intersegment sales and transfers are recorded at values based on market prices, which
creates intercompany profit on intersegment sales or transfers that is eliminated in consolidation.
Factors used by management to identify the enterprises reportable segments
The Company reports net sales by geographic area in a manner that is more reflective of how the
Company operates its segments, which is by the destination of net sales. Long-lived assets by
geographic area are reported by the location of the subsidiary.

14 Income Taxes
Income or loss from continuing operations before income taxes, based on geographic location of
the operations to which such earnings are attributable, is provided below. As the Company has
elected to treat certain foreign subsidiaries as branches for U.S. income tax purposes, pretax
income attributable to the United States shown below may differ from the pretax income reported on
the Companys annual U.S. Federal income tax return.

In connection with various investment arrangements, the Company has been granted holidays from
income taxes at two affiliates in Asia. These agreements began to expire in 2010, with full
expiration in 2018. In total, the agreements reduced income tax expense by $1.1 million and $3.2
million in 2010 and 2008, respectively, and had no effect on the 2009 tax benefit. These savings
resulted in an increase to earnings per diluted share of $0.01 in 2010 and $0.03 in 2008.
Income tax expense includes U.S. and international taxes. Except as required under U.S. tax law,
management does not provide U.S. taxes on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that have
not been previously taxed since management intends to invest such undistributed earnings
indefinitely outside of the United States. Undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are
indefinitely outside of the U.S. were $484.0 million and $456.0 million at December 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009, respectively. Determination of the unrecognized deferred tax liability that
would be incurred if such amounts were repatriated is not practicable.

The Company has U.S. loss carryforwards with tax benefits totaling $4.8 million and $3.2 million,
respectively, portions of which will expire at the end of 2011. In addition, the Company had loss
carryforwards in various non-U.S. jurisdictions with tax benefits totaling $132.4 million having
various expiration dates. The Company has provided valuation allowances of $136.8 million against
certain of these carryforwards. The majority of the non-U.S. loss carryforwards represent local
country net operating losses for branches of the Company or entities treated as branches of the
Company under U.S. tax law. Tax benefits have been recorded for these losses in the United States.
The related local country net operating loss carryforwards are offset fully by valuation
allowances. In addition to loss and credit carryforwards, the Company has provided valuation
allowances of $38.1 million against other deferred tax assets.
As of December 31, 2010, the Company had approximately $77.8 million of total gross unrecognized
tax benefits. Included in this amount was approximately $46.1 million, which represented the
amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would favorably impact the Companys effective income tax
rate in any future periods if such benefits were recognized. As of December 31, 2010, the Company
anticipates a decrease in its unrecognized tax positions of approximately $1.0 million to $2.0
million during the next 12 months. The anticipated decrease is primarily due to the expiration of
various statutes of limitations. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has accrued approximately
$6.8 million of interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company records
interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.
As of December 31, 2009, the Company had approximately $77.8 million of total gross unrecognized
tax benefits. Included in this amount was approximately $44.8 million, which represented the
amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would favorably
impact the Companys effective income tax rate in any future periods if such benefits were
recognized. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had accrued approximately $6.0 million of
interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

During 2010, gross unrecognized tax benefits increased primarily due to net additions related
to various prior year and current year tax matters, including U.S. state and local taxes and taxes
related to the Companys international operations. These increases were offset entirely by
reductions related to prior year and current year tax matters, including U.S. state and local
taxes, taxes related to the Companys international operations and the settlement of tax matters
with government authorities and lapses in the statute of limitation on various tax matters.
The increase in gross unrecognized tax benefits of $6.0 million during 2009 was primarily due to
net additions related to various prior year and current year tax matters, including U.S. state and
local taxes, tax credits and taxes related to the Companys international operations.
As of December 31, 2010, the Company is subject to examination by the IRS for tax years 2006 to the
present. The Company is also subject to tax examination in various U.S. state and local tax
jurisdictions for tax years 2006 to the present as well as various foreign tax jurisdictions,
including France, Germany, Czech Republic, India and Canada, for tax years 2003 to the present.
The current portion of the Companys unrecognized tax benefits is presented on the Consolidated
Balance Sheet within income taxes payable and the non-current portion is presented as a component
of other non-current liabilities.

15 Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer
a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit
price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value
into the following hierarchy:
Level 1 | | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | ||||
Level 2 | | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. | ||||
Level 3 | | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. |
The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at
fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2010 and 2009:

Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with maturities of three month or less when
purchased and are valued at redemption value. Short-term investments are investments with
maturities between four months and one year and are valued at amortized cost. The Company uses
publicly available foreign currency forward and spot rates to measure the fair value of its foreign
currency forward contracts.
The Company does not believe it has significant concentrations of risk associated with the
counterparts to its financial instruments.

In 2010, machinery and equipment associated with the manufacturing facility in Sao Paulo,
Brazil, with a carrying value of $1.1 million, were written down to their fair value of $0.1
million, resulting in an impairment charge of $1.0 million. Machinery and equipment associated
with a manufacturing facility in Mesa, Arizona, with a carrying value of $2.4 million, were written
down to their fair value of $0.4 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $2.0 million. Other
fixed assets at various locations, with a carrying value of $1.6 million, were written down to
their fair value of $0.6 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $1.0 million. The fair
value for these assets was based on the price that would be received in a current transaction to
sell the assets on a standalone basis, considering the age and physical attributes of the equipment
compared to the cost of similar used machinery and equipment, as these assets have been idled.
Lastly, indefinite-lived intangible assets, with a carrying value of $0.9 million, were written
down to their fair value of $0.2 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $0.7 million. The
Company used an income approach (a discounted cash flow model) to arrive at the fair value of these
intangible assets.

In 2009, assets held for sale of $4.4 million and assets held and used of $180.7 million were
written down to their fair value of $71.4 million and impairment charges of $113.7 million were
included in earnings.
Assets held for sale of $4.4 million and assets held and used of $2.0 million associated with the
Companys former Torrington campus office complex were written down to zero and an impairment
charge was recognized for the full amount. The Company recognized an impairment charge in
anticipation of recognizing a loss on the sale of these assets sold on July 20, 2009. The Company
subsequently sold these assets for a pretax loss of $0.7 million.
Assets held and used associated with the rationalization of the Process Industries three Canton,
Ohio bearing manufacturing facilities with a carrying value of $29.7 million were written down to
their fair value of $2.0 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $27.7 million, which was
included in earnings in 2009. The fair value for these assets was based on the price that would be
received in a current transaction to sell the assets on a standalone basis considering the age and
physical attributes of the equipment compared to the cost of similar used machinery and equipment.
Assets held and used associated with the Companys packaged bearing product lines, with a carrying
value of $86.7 million, were written down to their fair value of $43.3 million, resulting in an
impairment charge of $43.4 million, which was included in earnings in 2009. The fair value for
these product lines was primarily based on an in-use premise in which these assets would continue
to be in service. The fair value for these assets was determined based on the price that would be
received in a current transaction to sell the assets assuming the assets would be used with other
assets as a group and that those assets would be available to market participants. The remaining
fair value of these product lines was based on the price that would be received in a current
transaction to sell the assets on a standalone basis, considering the age and physical attributes
of the equipment compared to the cost of similar used machinery and equipment, as these assets were
expected to be idled in the near future.

Assets held and used associated with product lines at the Companys subsidiaries in Canada,
France and China with a carrying value of $26.2 million were written down to their fair value of
$5.0 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $21.2 million, which was included in earnings in
2009. The fair value for these assets was based on the price that would be received in a current
transaction to sell the assets on a standalone basis, considering the age and physical attributes
of the equipment compared to the cost of similar used machinery and equipment, as these assets were
either idled or were expected to be idled soon.
Assets held and used associated with the Companys other U.S. product lines, with a carrying value
of $20.2 million, were written down to their fair value of $14.2 million, resulting in an
impairment charge of $6.0 million, which was included in earnings in 2009. The fair value for
these product lines was based on an in-use premise in which these assets would continue to be in
service. The fair value for these assets was determined based on the price that would be received
in a current transaction to sell the assets assuming the assets would be used with other assets as
a group and that those assets would be available to market participants.
Two of the Companys equity investments, International Component Supply LTDA and Endorsia.com
International AB, were reviewed for impairment during the last half of 2009. With a combined
carrying value of $12.6 million, these equity investments were written down to their collective
fair value of $6.5 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $6.1 million recognized in Other
(expense) income, net during the last half of 2009. The fair value for these investments was based
on the estimated sales proceeds to be received from a third party if the Company were to sell its
interest in either joint venture. As of December 31,
2010, neither joint venture had met the criteria to be classified as assets held for sale.
However, during 2010, both joint ventures met the criteria for assets held for sale and were
reclassified to other current assets.
Other fixed assets at various locations, with a carrying value of $3.3 million, were written down
to their fair value of $0.4 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $2.9 million during 2009.
The fair value for these assets was based on the price that would be received in a current
transaction to sell the assets on a standalone basis, considering the age and physical attributes
of the equipment compared to the cost of similar used machinery and equipment, as these assets had
been idled.
Financial Instruments
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, commercial paper, short-term
borrowings and accounts payable are a reasonable estimate of their fair value due to the short-term
nature of these instruments. The fair value of the Companys long-term fixed-rate debt, based on
quoted market prices, was $468.7 million and $440.1 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively. The carrying value of this debt was $430.4 million and $430.6 million at December 31,
2010 and 2009, respectively.
Note
16 Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The
primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are commodity price risk, foreign currency
exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. Forward contracts on various commodities are entered
into to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of natural gas used in the
Companys manufacturing process. Forward contracts on various foreign currencies are entered into
to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk on forecasted revenue denominated in foreign
currencies. Other forward exchange contracts on various foreign currencies are entered into to
manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with certain of the Companys commitments
denominated in foreign currencies. Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate
risk associated with the Companys fixed and floating-rate borrowings.
The Company designates certain foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted
revenues and certain interest rate hedges as fair value hedges of fixed-rate borrowings. The
majority of the Companys natural gas forward contracts are not subject to any hedge designation as
they are considered within the normal purchases exemption.
The Company does not purchase or hold any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
As of December 31, 2010, the Company had $199.6 million of outstanding foreign currency forward
contracts at notional value. The total notional value of foreign currency hedges as of December
31, 2009 was $248.0 million.

16 Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (continued)
Cash Flow Hedging Strategy
For certain derivative instruments that are designated as and qualify as cash flow hedges (i.e.,
hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a
particular risk), the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is
reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same
line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which
the hedged transaction affects earnings. The remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in
excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, if
any (i.e., the ineffective portion), or hedge components excluded from the assessment of
effectiveness, are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income during the current period.
To protect against a reduction in the value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting
from export sales over the next year, the Company has instituted a foreign currency cash flow
hedging program. The Company hedges portions of its forecasted intra-group revenue or expense
denominated in foreign currencies with forward contracts. When the dollar strengthens significantly
against foreign currencies, the decline in the present value of future foreign currency revenue is
offset by gains in the fair value of the forward contracts designated as hedges. Conversely, when
the dollar weakens, the increase in the present value of future foreign currency cash flows is
offset by losses in the fair value of the forward contracts.
Fair Value Hedging Strategy
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges (i.e., hedging the
exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or an identified portion thereof
that is attributable to a particular risk), the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well
as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in
the same line item associated with the hedged item (i.e., in interest expense when the hedged
item is fixed-rate debt).
The following table presents the fair value and location of all assets and liabilities associated
with the Companys hedging instruments within the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

17 Prior-Period Adjustments
During the third quarter of 2010, the Company recorded an adjustment related to its 2009
Consolidated Financial Statements. (Loss) income from discontinued operations, net of income
taxes, decreased $1.3 million (after-tax) due to a correction of an error related to a foreign
currency translation adjustment for the Companys Canadian operations that were sold as part of the
NRB divestiture. The Company realized during the third quarter of 2010 that this adjustment should
have been written-off in the fourth quarter of 2009 and recognized as part of the loss on the sale
of the NRB operations. Management of the Company concluded the effect of the third quarter
adjustment was immaterial to the Companys 2009 and third-quarter 2010 financial statements, as
well as to the full-year 2010 financial statements.
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company recorded a $14.1 million adjustment to other
comprehensive income for deferred taxes on postretirement prescription drug benefits, specifically
the employer subsidy provided by the U.S. government under the Medicare Part D program (the
Medicare subsidy). The Company determined it had provided deferred taxes on postretirement benefit
plan accruals recorded through other comprehensive income net of the Medicare subsidy, rather than
on a gross basis. The cumulative impact of this error resulted in a cumulative understatement of
deferred tax assets totaling $14.1 million and a corresponding overstatement of accumulated other
comprehensive loss. Management concluded the effect of the adjustment was not material to the
Companys prior three fiscal years and the first quarter of 2010 financial statements, as well as
the estimated full-year 2010 financial statements.
During the first quarter of 2009, the Company recorded two adjustments related to its 2008
Consolidated Financial Statements. Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest
increased by $6.1 million (after-tax) due to a correction of an error related to the $18.4 million
goodwill impairment loss the Company recorded in the fourth quarter of 2008 for the Mobile
Industries segment. In recording this goodwill impairment loss, the Company did not recognize that
a portion of the loss related to two separate subsidiaries in India and South Africa of which the
Company holds less than 100% ownership. In addition, income (loss) from continuing operations
before income taxes decreased by $3.4 million, or $0.04 per share, ($2.0 million after-tax or $0.02
per share) due to a correction of an error related to $3.4 million of in-process research and
development costs that were recorded in other current assets with the anticipation of being paid
for by a third-party. However, the Company subsequently realized that the balance could not be
substantiated through a contract with a third party. The net effect of these errors understated
2008 net income attributable to The Timken Company of $267.7 million by $4.1 million. Furthermore,
the net effect of these errors overstated the Companys first quarter 2009 net income attributable
to The Timken Company of $0.9 million by $4.1 million. Had these adjustments been recorded in the
fourth quarter of 2008, rather than the first quarter of 2009, the results for the first quarter of
2009 would have been a net loss attributable to The Timken Company of $3.2 million. Management of
the Company concluded the effect of the first quarter adjustments was immaterial to the Companys
2008 and first-quarter 2009 financial statements, as well as to the full-year 2009 financial
statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
The Timken Company
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The Timken Company and subsidiaries
as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders
equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010. Our
audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These
financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the consolidated financial position of The Timken Company and subsidiaries at December
31, 2010 and 2009, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule,
when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in
all material respects the information set forth therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States), The Timken Companys internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February
22, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys management carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures as defined to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon
that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by
this report.
There have been no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control
over financial reporting during the Companys fourth quarter of 2010.
Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The management of The Timken Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate
internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Timkens internal control system was
designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the preparation and fair presentation of
published financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation
of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures
may deteriorate.
Timken management assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this
assessment under COSOs Internal Control-Integrated Framework, management believes that, as of
December 31, 2010, Timkens internal control over financial reporting is effective.
Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an audit report on our
assessment of Timkens internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, which is
presented below.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of The Timken Company
We have audited The Timken Company and subsidiaries internal control over financial reporting as
of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria).
The Timken Company and subsidiaries management is responsible for maintaining effective internal
control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control
over financial reporting included in the accompanying Report of Management on Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the companys internal control
over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was
maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal
control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and
evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk,
and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe
that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A
companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1)
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company
are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company;
and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or
detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are
subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, The Timken Company and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of The Timken Company and subsidiaries as of
December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders equity,
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, and our report
dated February 22, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
