FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact they use words such as “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and other words of similar meaning and expression in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance or events. Forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q may concern, among other things, Kennametal’s expectations regarding our strategy, goals, plans and projections regarding our financial position, liquidity and capital resources, results of operations, market position, and product development, all of which are based on current estimates that involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements are risks and uncertainties related to: economic recession; anticipated benefits resulting from our recently completed restructuring activities; availability and cost of the raw materials we use to manufacture our products; our foreign operations and international markets, such as currency exchange rates, different regulatory environments, trade barriers, exchange controls, and social and political instability; changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate, including environmental, health and safety regulations; our ability to protect and defend our intellectual property; competition; our ability to retain our management and employees; demands on management resources; potential claims relating to our products; integrating acquisitions and achieving the expected savings and synergies; business divestitures; global or regional catastrophic events; energy costs; commodity prices; labor relations; demand for and market acceptance of new and existing products; and implementation of environmental remediation matters. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual outcomes could vary materially from those indicated. These and other risks are more fully described in the “Risk Factors” Section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements as a result of future events or developments.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

 

1. ORGANIZATION

Kennametal Inc. was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1943. Kennametal Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, Kennametal or the Company) are a leading global manufacturer and supplier of tooling, engineered components and advanced materials consumed in production processes. We believe that our reputation for manufacturing excellence, as well as our technological expertise and innovation in our principle products, has helped us to achieve a leading market presence in our primary markets. End users of our products include metalworking manufacturers and suppliers across a diverse array of industries, including the aerospace, defense, transportation, machine tool, light machinery and heavy machinery industries, as well as manufacturers, producers and suppliers in a number of other industries including coal mining, highway construction, quarrying, and oil and gas exploration and production industries. Our end users’ products include items ranging from airframes to coal mining, engines to oil wells and turbochargers to construction. We operate two global business segments consisting of Industrial and Infrastructure.

 

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements, which include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries, should be read in conjunction with our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2011 was derived from the audited balance sheet included in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim statements are unaudited; however, we believe that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods were made and all adjustments are normal adjustments. The results for the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal year. Unless otherwise specified, any reference to a “year” is to a fiscal year ended June 30. For example, a reference to 2012 is to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012. When used in this Form 10-Q, unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Kennametal Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

 

3. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Issued

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) deferred the requirement to present reclassifications of other comprehensive income on the face of the income statement. Companies would still be required to adopt the other requirements contained in the accounting guidance on presentation of other comprehensive income. This guidance is effective for Kennametal beginning July 1, 2012.

In September 2011, the FASB issued additional guidance on testing goodwill for impairment. The guidance permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. This guidance is effective for Kennametal beginning July 1, 2012.

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance on presentation of comprehensive income. This guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. An entity can elect to present items of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate consecutive statements. Each component of net income and other comprehensive income, together with totals for comprehensive income and its two parts, net income and other comprehensive income, would need to be displayed under either alternative. This guidance is effective for Kennametal beginning July 1, 2012.

In May 2011, the FASB issued guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure. The objective of this guidance is a consistent definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and international financial reporting standards (IFRS). Many of the amendments in this guidance represent clarifications to existing guidance or changes in the measurement guidance for determining fair value. The most significant change in disclosures is an expansion of the information required for Level 3 measurements. Disclosures will be required about the use of a nonfinancial asset measured or disclosed at fair value if its use differs from its highest and best use. In addition, entities must report the level in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities not recorded at fair value but where fair value is disclosed. This guidance is effective for Kennametal beginning January 1, 2012.

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels to prioritize the inputs used in valuations, as defined below:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable.

As of December 31, 2011, the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized as follows:

6. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

As part of our financial risk management program, we use certain derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and therefore hold no derivative instruments for trading purposes. We use derivative financial instruments to provide predictability to the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates on our consolidated results and to achieve our targeted mix of fixed and floating interest rates on outstanding debt. We account for derivative instruments as a hedge of the related asset, liability, firm commitment or anticipated transaction, when the derivative is specifically designated as a hedge of such items. Our objective in managing foreign exchange exposures with derivative instruments is to reduce volatility in cash flow, allowing us to focus more of our attention on business operations. With respect to interest rate management, these derivative instruments allow us to achieve our targeted fixed-to-floating interest rate mix as a separate decision from funding arrangements in the bank and public debt markets. We measure hedge effectiveness by assessing the changes in the fair value or expected future cash flows of the hedged item. The ineffective portions are recorded in other expense (income), net.

The fair value of derivatives designated in the condensed consolidated balance sheet are as follows:

FAIR VALUE HEDGES

In February 2009, we terminated interest rate swap contracts to convert $200.0 million of our fixed rate debt to floating rate debt. These contracts were originally set to mature in June 2012. Upon termination, we received a cash payment of $13.2 million. This gain is being amortized as a component of interest expense over the remaining term of the related debt using the effective interest rate method. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, $1.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively, were recognized as a reduction in interest expense. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2010, $1.4 million and $2.9 million, respectively, were recognized as a reduction in interest expense.

CASH FLOW HEDGES

Currency forward contracts and range forward contracts (a transaction where both a put option is purchased and a call option is sold), designated as cash flow hedges, hedge anticipated cash flows from cross-border intercompany sales of products and services. Gains and losses realized on these contracts at maturity are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, net of tax, and are recognized as a component of other (income) expense, net when the underlying sale of products or services is recognized into earnings. The notional amount of the contracts translated into U.S. dollars at December 31, 2011 and 2010, was $68.0 million and $64.1 million, respectively. The time value component of the fair value of range forwards is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Assuming the market rates remain constant with the rates at December 31, 2011, we expect to recognize a gain of $1.0 million in the next 12 months on outstanding derivatives.

We enter into floating-to-fixed interest rate swap contracts, designated as cash flow hedges, from time to time to hedge our exposure to interest rate changes on a portion of our floating rate debt. These interest rate swap contracts convert a portion of our floating rate debt to fixed rate debt. We record the fair value of these contracts as an asset or a liability, as applicable, in the balance sheet, with the offset to accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, net of tax. In December 2011, we amended the maturity date of our forward starting interest rate swap contracts for forecasted interest payments in an anticipated debt issuance. These contracts effectively convert a cumulative notional amount of $150.0 million from floating to fixed interest rates. The amendment of the existing contracts resulted in a de-designation of the original cash flow hedge and a designation of a new cash flow hedge as the forecasted transaction continues to be probable. Hedge ineffectiveness was determined to be immaterial for the new cash flow hedge. As of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, we recorded a liability of $22.9 million and $2.4 million, respectively, on these contracts which was recorded as an offset in other comprehensive income, net of tax. Over the next 12 months, assuming the market rates remain constant with the rates at December 31, 2011, we do not expect to recognize into earnings any significant gains or losses on outstanding derivatives.

Amounts related to cash flow hedges have been recognized as follows:

7. RESTRUCTURING AND RELATED CHARGES

During fiscal year 2011, we completed our restructuring plans to reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies. These actions related to the rationalization of certain manufacturing and service facilities as well as other employment cost reduction programs. There were no restructuring and related charges for the six months ended December 31, 2011.

Restructuring and related charges recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2010 amounted to $9.4 million, including $7.1 million of restructuring charges of which $0.5 million were related to inventory disposals and recorded in cost of goods sold. Restructuring-related charges of $1.5 million and $0.8 million were recorded in cost of goods sold and operating expense, respectively, during the same period.

Restricted Stock Units – STEP

On November 26, 2007, the Company adopted a one-time, long-term equity program, the Kennametal Inc. 2008 Strategic Transformational Equity Program, under the 2002 Plan (STEP). The STEP was designed to compensate participating executives for achievement of certain performance conditions during the period which began on October 1, 2007 and ended on September 30, 2011. Each participant was awarded a maximum number of restricted stock units, each representing a contingent right to receive one share of capital stock of the Company to the extent the unit was earned during the performance period and would have become payable under the STEP. The performance conditions were based on the Company’s total shareholder return (TSR) which governed 35 percent of the awarded restricted stock units, and cumulative adjusted earnings per share (EPS), which governed 65 percent of the awarded restricted stock units. The performance period for the STEP ended on September 30, 2011 and the minimum threshold levels of performance were not achieved. Therefore, all outstanding restricted stock units were forfeited by participating executives. As of December 31, 2011, no restricted stock units had been earned or paid under the STEP. There were no voting rights or dividends associated with restricted stock units under the STEP.

10. INVENTORIES

We used the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of valuing inventories for approximately 53 percent and 50 percent of total inventories at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively. Because inventory valuations under the LIFO method are based on an annual determination of quantities and costs as of June 30 of each year, the interim LIFO valuations are based on our projections of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Therefore, the interim financial results are subject to any final year-end LIFO inventory adjustments.

11. LONG-TERM DEBT AND CAPITAL LEASES

Current maturities of long-term debt and capital lease obligations consist primarily of Senior Unsecured Notes issued in June 2002 having an aggregate face amount of $300.0 million, maturing in June 2012.

On October 21, 2011, we entered into an amendment to our 2010 Credit Agreement, which is used to augment cash from operations and as an additional source of funds. The five-year, multi-currency, revolving credit facility (2011 Credit Agreement) permits revolving credit loans of up to $600.0 million for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. The 2011 Credit Agreement allows for borrowings in U.S. dollars, euro, Canadian dollars, pound sterling and Japanese yen. Interest payable under the 2011 Credit Agreement is based upon the type of borrowing under the facility and may be (1) LIBOR plus an applicable margin, (2) the greater of the prime rate or the Federal Funds effective rate plus an applicable margin, or (3) fixed as negotiated by us.

The 2011 Credit Agreement requires us to comply with various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including two financial covenants: a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (as those terms are defined in the agreement). We were in compliance with these financial covenants as of December 31, 2011. We had no borrowings outstanding under the 2011 Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2011. We had no borrowings outstanding under the 2010 Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2011.

Borrowings under the 2011 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant domestic subsidiaries.

Fixed rate debt had a fair market value of $307.6 million and $315.8 million at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively. The fair value is determined based on the quoted market price of this debt as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively.

 

12. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The operation of our business has exposed us to certain liabilities and compliance costs related to environmental matters. We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation activities at certain of our locations.

Superfund Sites We are involved as a Potentially Responsible Party (PRP) at various sites designated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) as Superfund sites. For certain of these sites, we have evaluated the claims and potential liabilities and have determined that neither are material, individually or in the aggregate. For certain other sites, proceedings are in the very early stages and have not yet progressed to a point where it is possible to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation, the timing and extent of remedial action that may be required by governmental authorities or the amount of our liability alone or in relation to that of any other PRPs.

Other Environmental We establish and maintain reserves for other potential environmental costs, which amounted to $4.7 million and $5.4 million as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively. This accrual represents anticipated costs associated with the remediation of these issues. We recorded favorable foreign currency translation adjustments of $0.6 million and cash payments of $0.1 million against the reserve for the six months ended December 31, 2011.

The reserves we have established for environmental liabilities represent our best current estimate of the costs of addressing all identified environmental situations, based on our review of currently available evidence, and taking into consideration our prior experience in remediation and that of other companies, as well as public information released by the US EPA, other governmental agencies, and by the PRP groups in which we are participating. Although the reserves currently appear to be sufficient to cover these environmental liabilities, there are uncertainties associated with environmental liabilities, and we can give no assurance that our estimate of any environmental liability will not increase or decrease in the future. The reserved and unreserved exposures for all environmental concerns could change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the involvement of and direction taken by the government on these matters.

We maintain a Corporate Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Department, as well as an EHS Steering Committee, to monitor compliance with environmental regulations and to oversee remediation activities. In addition, we have designated EHS coordinators who are responsible for each of our global manufacturing facilities. Our financial management team periodically meets with members of the Corporate EHS Department and the Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the status of environmental projects and contingencies. On a quarterly basis, we review financial provisions and reserves for environmental contingencies and adjust these reserves when appropriate.

 

13. INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was 17.3 percent and 21.3 percent, respectively. The current year rate was favorably impacted by a $4.2 million reduction of a valuation allowance in the Netherlands in the quarter as well as stronger operating results under our pan-European operations. The prior year rate benefitted from the RD&E credit extension.

The effective income tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was 20.2 percent and 24.3 percent, respectively. The current year rate was favorably impacted by a $4.2 million reduction of a valuation allowance in the Netherlands in the quarter and the favorable impact of stronger operating results under our pan-European operations.

During the quarter, we assessed the sustainability of future income in the Netherlands. Based on this assessment, we believe that it is more likely than not that we will be able to realize a portion of the net deferred tax assets in this jurisdiction.

 

14. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, while diluted earnings per share are calculated to reflect the potential dilution that may occur related to the issuance of capital stock through grants of capital stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. The difference between basic and diluted earnings per share relates solely to the effect of capital stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units.

For purposes of determining the number of diluted shares outstanding, weighted average shares outstanding for basic earnings per share calculations were increased due solely to the dilutive effect of unexercised capital stock options, unvested restricted stock awards and unvested restricted stock units by 1.2 million shares and 1.1 million shares for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 1.1 million shares and 0.9 million shares for the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Unexercised capital stock options, restricted stock units and restricted stock awards of 0.7 million and 0.6 million shares for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 0.7 million shares for both the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

17. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired companies. Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested at least annually for impairment. We perform our annual impairment tests during the June quarter in connection with our annual planning process, unless there are impairment indicators that warrant a test prior to that. We have noted no impairment indicators warranting additional testing.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

OVERVIEW

Kennametal Inc. is a leading global manufacturer and supplier of tooling, engineered components and advanced materials consumed in production processes. We believe that our reputation for manufacturing excellence, as well as our technological expertise and innovation in our principal products, has helped us to achieve a leading market presence in our primary markets. We believe we are one of the largest global providers of consumable metalcutting tools and tooling supplies. End users of our products include metalworking manufacturers and suppliers across a diverse array of industries, including the aerospace, defense, transportation, machine tool, light machinery and heavy machinery industries, as well as manufacturers, producers and suppliers in a number of other industries including coal mining, highway construction, quarrying, and oil and gas exploration and production industries. Our end users’ products include items ranging from airframes to coal mining, engines to oil wells and turbochargers to construction.

We experienced strong growth for the December quarter across both business segments and all regions. Our sales of $641.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 grew 13 percent compared to sales for the December quarter one year ago. Sales growth was primarily due to organic growth which includes both volume and price.

Raw materials prices have doubled compared to the prior year, but continue to stabilize. Our margin performance during the quarter reflected our ability to recover inflation costs related to these raw materials, primarily tungsten, our main raw material. We had previously executed appropriate pricing actions and have continued to maintain our cost discipline during the quarter. We continue to monitor changes in raw material prices to ensure appropriate pricing.

Operating income was $94.0 million, an increase of $32.4 million compared to operating income of $61.6 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in operating income was driven by higher sales volume, higher price realization and incremental restructuring benefits, partially offset by higher raw material costs.

We delivered a record December quarter earnings per diluted share of $0.91.

We had cash inflow from operating activities of $71.1 million during the six months ended December 31, 2011, driven by our operating performance. Capital expenditures were $35.6 million during the six months ended December 31, 2011.

In addition, we invested further in technology and innovation to continue delivering a high level of new products to our customers. Research and development expenses included in operating expense totaled $8.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011.

On January 17, 2012, Kennametal announced that we signed a definitive agreement to purchase the Deloro Stellite Holdings 1 Limited (Deloro Stellite) from Duke Street Capital for approximately €277 million. The U.K.-based Deloro Stellite, with approximately €220 million in annual sales, is a global manufacturer and provider of alloy-based critical wear solutions for extreme environments involving high temperature, corrosion and abrasion. Deloro Stellite employs approximately 1,300 people across seven primary operating facilities globally, including locations in the U.S., Canada, Germany, Italy, India and China. Through proprietary metal alloys and materials expertise as well as specialized engineering design and fabrication capabilities, Deloro Stellite delivers value-added, tailored wear solutions for customers in our current end markets of energy, which includes oil and gas and power generation, transportation, and aerospace.

This acquisition is in alignment with our growth strategy and positions the Company to further achieve geographic and end market balance. The transaction is expected to be accretive to earnings in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013. We plan to fund the acquisition through existing credit facilities and operating cash flow, and remain committed to maintaining our investment grade ratings.

The following narrative provides further discussion and analysis of our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources, as well as other pertinent matters.

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

SALES

Sales for the three months ended December 31, 2011 were $641.7 million, an increase of $75.9 million, or 13 percent, from $565.8 million in the prior year quarter. Sales increased due to organic growth of 14 percent offset by unfavorable impact of fewer business days. The improvement in sales was driven by better performance in both business segments and across all regions. Organic sales growth drivers were energy markets of 25 percent, aerospace and defense of 16 percent, earthworks market of 15 percent, general engineering of 12 percent and transportation of 7 percent.

Table of Contents
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

 

 

Sales for the six months ended December 31, 2011 were $1,300.6 million, an increase of $205.6 million, or 19 percent, from $1,095.0 million in the prior year quarter. Sales increased due to organic growth of 16 percent and a 3 percent favorable impact from foreign currency effects. The improvement in sales was driven by better performance in both business segments and across all regions. Organic sales growth drivers were energy markets of 22 percent, general engineering of 17 percent, earthworks market of 15 percent, aerospace and defense of 12 percent and transportation of 10 percent.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2011 was $231.9 million, an increase of $31.9 million from $200.0 million in the prior year quarter. This increase was primarily due to increased organic sales of $79.4 million, partially offset by higher raw material costs. The gross profit margin for the three months ended December 31, 2011 was 36.1 percent, as compared to 35.4 percent generated in the prior year quarter.

Gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2011 was $482.9 million, an increase of $94.1 million from $388.8 million in the prior year quarter. This increase was primarily due to increased organic sales of $170.5 million, partially offset by higher raw material costs. The gross profit margin for the six months ended December 31, 2011 was 37.1 percent, as compared to 35.5 percent generated in the prior year quarter.

OPERATING EXPENSE

Operating expense for the three months ended December 31, 2011 increased $2.5 million or 1.9 percent to $134.6 million compared to $132.1 million in the prior year quarter. The increase is primarily due to an increase in employment costs of $5.6 million, including higher sales compensation of $3.6 million due to better operating performance, partially offset by lower professional fees of $2.0 million.

Operating expense for the six months ended December 31, 2011 increased $23.5 million or 9.1 percent to $280.6 million compared to $257.1 million in the prior year quarter. The increase is primarily due to an increase in employment costs of $13.4 million, including higher sales compensation of $6.8 million due to better operating performance and unfavorable impact of foreign currency results of $8.7 million.

RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

During fiscal year 2011, we completed our restructuring plans to reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies. These actions related to the rationalization of certain manufacturing and service facilities as well as other employment cost reduction programs. As the restructuring programs were completed in fiscal 2011, there were no restructuring and related charges for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011. The Company’s restructuring programs are delivering annual ongoing pre-tax savings of approximately $170 million now that all programs are fully implemented.

Restructuring and related charges recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2010 amounted to $5.1 million, including $3.8 million of restructuring charges, of which $0.5 million were related to inventory disposals and recorded in cost of goods sold. Restructuring related charges of $0.5 million and $0.8 million were recorded in cost of goods sold and operating expense, respectively, during the three months ended December 31, 2010.

Restructuring and related charges recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2010 amounted to $9.4 million, including $7.1 million of restructuring charges, of which $0.5 million were related to inventory disposals and recorded in cost of goods sold. Restructuring related charges of $1.5 million and $0.8 million were recorded in cost of goods sold and operating expense, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2010.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2011 of $5.3 million decreased $0.3 million or 5.5 percent, from $5.6 million in the prior year quarter. Interest expense for the six months ended December 31, 2011 of $10.7 million decreased $0.8 million or 6.8 percent, from $11.5 million in the prior year quarter.

OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET

Other income, net for the three months ended December 31, 2011 was $1.3 million compared to $0.3 million for the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by favorable foreign currency transaction results of $1.6 million.

Table of Contents
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

 

 

Other income, net for the six months ended December 31, 2011 was $0.7 million compared to other expense, net of $1.7 million for the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by favorable foreign currency transaction results of $2.4 million.

INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was 17.3 percent and 21.3 percent, respectively. The current year rate was favorably impacted by a $4.2 million reduction of a valuation allowance in the Netherlands in the quarter as well as stronger operating results under our pan-European operations. The prior year rate benefitted from the RD&E credit extension.

The effective income tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was 20.2 percent and 24.3 percent, respectively. The current year rate was favorably impacted by a $4.2 million reduction of a valuation allowance in the Netherlands in the quarter and the favorable impact of stronger operating results under our pan-European operations.

During the quarter, we assessed the sustainability of future income in the Netherlands. Based on this assessment, we believe that it is more likely than not that we will be able to realize a portion of the net deferred tax assets in this jurisdiction. Accordingly we recorded a valuation allowance adjustment of $4.2 million that reduced tax expense. With respect to the other jurisdictions, we will continue to monitor our ability to realize the net deferred tax assets in these jurisdictions, and if appropriate, will adjust the valuation allowance. Such an adjustment may result in a material reduction to tax expense in the period the adjustment occurs.

BUSINESS SEGMENT REVIEW

We operate two reportable segments consisting of Industrial and Infrastructure. Expenses that are not allocated are reported in Corporate. Segment determination is based upon internal organizational structure, the manner in which we organize segments for making operating decisions and assessing performance, the availability of separate financial results and materiality considerations.

For the three months ended December 31, 2011, Industrial external sales increased by 11 percent driven by organic sales growth. On an organic basis, sales increased in all served market sectors led by strong growth in aerospace and defense of 16 percent, general engineering of 12 percent and a 7 percent increase in transportation. The aerospace and defense end markets’ growth is due to the significant increase in commercial aircraft production. Growth in the general engineering end markets is attributable to new orders for industrial machinery as manufacturers have increased their capital spending, and the growth in the transportation end markets was due to the overall increase in global vehicles sales and production, particularly light-vehicles. On a regional basis, organic sales increased by approximately 15 percent in the Americas, 13 percent in Europe and 1 percent in Asia. The increase in the Americas and Europe was driven by growth in the general engineering end markets and the growth in Asia was driven by the transportation end markets. For comparison purposes, organic sales increased by approximately 48 percent in Asia, 34 percent in Europe and 31 percent in the Americas during the three months ended December 31, 2010.

For the three months ended December 31, 2011, Industrial operating income increased $20.7 million. The primary drivers of the increase in operating income were higher organic sales of $42.0 million, partially offset by an increase in raw material costs.

For the six months ended December 31, 2011, Industrial external sales increased by 18 percent, driven by organic sales growth of 14 percent and favorable foreign currency impact of 4 percent. On an organic basis, sales increased in all served market sectors led by strong growth in general engineering of 17 percent, aerospace and defense of 12 percent and transportation of 10 percent, respectively. Growth in the general engineering end markets is attributable to new orders for industrial machinery as manufacturers have increased their capital spending and the aerospace and defense end markets’ growth is due to a significant increase in commercial aircraft production. The growth in the transportation end markets was due to an overall increase in global vehicles sales and production, particularly light-vehicles, as well as an increase in replacements for commercial vehicles. On a regional basis, organic sales increased by approximately 18 percent in Europe, 17 percent in the Americas and 4 percent in Asia. The increase in the Americas and Europe was driven by growth in the general engineering end markets, and the growth in Asia was driven by the transportation end markets.

For the six months ended December 31, 2011, Industrial operating income increased $57.3 million. The primary drivers of the increase in operating income were higher organic sales of $96.2 million, partially offset by increase in raw material costs.

For the three months ended December 31, 2011, Infrastructure external sales increased by 18 percent, driven by organic sales growth of 19 percent offset by unfavorable impact of fewer business days. The organic increase was driven by higher sales in the energy and earthworks markets of 25 percent and 15 percent, respectively. Energy related product sales increased due to higher U.S. and international rig counts. Sales in the earthworks end markets increased due to continued mining capacity expansion and the increase in construction machinery production. On a regional basis, organic sales increased by approximately 34 percent in Asia, 16 percent in the Americas and 10 percent in Europe. The increase in Asia and the Americas was driven by the performance in the earthworks markets, while the European increase was more evenly split between both the earthworks and energy markets. For comparison purposes, organic sales increased by approximately 24 percent in Asia, 21 percent in the Americas and 12 percent in Europe during the three months ended December 31, 2010.

For the three months ended December 31, 2011, Infrastructure operating income increased $11.7 million. Operating income grew primarily due to higher organic sales of $37.6 million, partially offset by increase in raw material costs and unfavorable business mix of $4.5 million.

For the six months ended December 31, 2011, Infrastructure external sales increased by 20 percent, driven by organic sales growth of 18 percent and favorable foreign currency effects of 2 percent. The organic increase was driven by higher sales in the energy and earthworks markets of 22 percent and 15 percent, respectively. Energy related product sales increased due to higher U.S. and international rig counts, as well as increased shale production. Sales in the earthworks end markets increased due to continued mining capacity expansion and the increase in construction machinery production. On a regional basis, organic sales increased by approximately 26 percent in Asia, 16 percent in the Americas and 14 percent in Europe. The increase in Asia and the Americas was driven by the performance in the earthworks markets, while the European increase was more evenly split between both the earthworks and energy markets.

For the six months ended December 31, 2011, Infrastructure operating income increased $17.8 million. Operating income grew primarily due to higher organic sales of $71.3 million, partially offset by increase in raw material costs and unfavorable business mix of $6.4 million.

For the six months ended December 31, 2011, unallocated expense decreased $1.4 million to $5.8 million. The decrease was primarily due to lower strategic project spending of $3.1 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash flow from operations is our primary source of funding for capital expenditures and internal growth.

On October 21, 2011, we entered into an amendment to our 2010 Credit Agreement, which is used to augment cash from operations and as an additional source of funds. The five-year, multi-currency, revolving credit facility (2011 Credit Agreement) extends to October 2016. The 2011 Credit Agreement permits revolving credit loans of up to $600.0 million for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. The 2011 Credit Agreement allows for borrowings in U.S. dollars, euro, Canadian dollars, pound sterling and Japanese yen. Interest payable under the 2011 Credit Agreement is based upon the type of borrowing under the facility and may be (1) LIBOR plus an applicable margin, (2) the greater of the prime rate or the Federal Funds effective rate plus an applicable margin, or (3) fixed as negotiated by us.

The 2011 Credit Agreement requires us to comply with various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including two financial covenants: a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (as those terms are defined in the agreement). We were in compliance with these financial covenants as of December 31, 2011. We had no borrowings outstanding under the 2011 Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2011. For the six months ended December 31, 2011 average borrowings outstanding under the 2010 and 2011 Credit Agreements were approximately $97 million.

Borrowings under the 2011 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant domestic subsidiaries.

Our $300 million Senior Unsecured Notes due in June 2012 were reclassified to current maturities of long-term debt as of June 30, 2011. The repayment of this debt is expected to be financed in due course through a new corporate bond issuance.

We consider the unremitted earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries that have not previously been taxed in the U.S., to be permanently reinvested. As of December 31, 2011, the amount of cash, cash equivalents and short term intercompany advances held by foreign subsidiaries that would not be available for use in the United States on a long term basis, without incurring U.S. federal and state income tax consequences was approximately $290 million. We have not, nor do we anticipate the need to, repatriate funds to the U.S. to satisfy domestic liquidity needs arising in the ordinary course of business, including liquidity needs associated with our domestic debt service requirements.

At December 31, 2011, cash and cash equivalents were $128.5 million, total debt was $307.9 million and total Kennametal shareowners’ equity was $1,610.2 million. Our current senior credit ratings are at investment grade levels. We believe that our current financial position, liquidity and credit ratings provide access to the capital markets. We continue to closely monitor our liquidity position and the condition of the capital markets, as well as the counterparty risk of our credit providers.

On January 17, 2012 we announced the signing of a definitive agreement to purchase the Deloro Stellite Holdings 1 Limited from Duke Street Capital for approximately €277 million. We plan to fund the acquisition through existing facilities and operating cash flow, and remain committed to maintaining our investment grade ratings.

There have been no other material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments since June 30, 2011.

Cash Flow Provided by Operating Activities

During the six months ended December 31, 2011, cash flow provided by operating activities was $71.1 million, compared to $67.4 million for the prior year period. Cash flow used for operating activities for the current year period consisted of net income and non-cash items amounting to an inflow of $194.2 million, partially offset by changes in certain assets and liabilities netting to $123.1 million. Contributing to the changes in certain assets and liabilities was an increase in inventory of $83.4 million driven by higher inventory levels to meet higher demand, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $67.3 million driven by payment of $27.0 million of incentive compensation and decrease in other of $3.5 million, offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $23.2 million and an increase in accrued income taxes of $7.8 million.

During the six months ended December 31, 2010, cash flow provided by operating activities consisted of net income and non-cash items amounting to an inflow of $141.5 million, partially offset by changes in certain assets and liabilities netting to $74.1 million. Contributing to the changes in certain assets and liabilities was an increase in inventory of $45.1 million driven by an increase in production to meet higher demand and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $21.2 million.

Cash Flow Used for Investing Activities

Cash flow used for investing activities was $43.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2011, compared to $12.6 million in the prior year period. During the current year period cash flow used for investing activities included capital expenditures, net of $33.0 million, which consisted primarily of equipment upgrades and $10.0 million for the purchase of a technology license intangible in our infrastructure segment.

During the six months ended December 31, 2010, cash flow used for investing activities included capital expenditures, net of $13.7 million, which consisted primarily of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system and equipment upgrades.

Cash Flow Used for Financing Activities

Cash flow used for financing activities was $84.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $39.2 million in the prior year period. During the current year period, cash flow used for financing activities included $66.7 million used for the purchase of capital stock, $21.1 million of cash dividends paid to shareowners and $7.2 million of other, partially offset by $10.9 million of dividend reinvestment and the effect of employee benefit and stock plans.

During the six months ended December 31, 2010, cash flow used for financing activities included $19.9 million of cash dividends paid to shareowners, $17.6 million net decrease in borrowings and $10.3 million used for the repurchase of capital stock, partially offset by $10.2 million of dividend reinvestment and the effect of employee benefit and stock plans.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Working capital was $474.0 million at December 31, 2011, an increase of $27.9 million from $446.1 million at June 30, 2011. The increase in working capital was driven primarily by an increase in inventories of $51.1 million driven by higher inventory levels to meet higher demand, a decrease in other current liabilities of $44.5 million driven primarily by the payout of incentive compensation , a decrease in accounts payable of $26.6 million due to the timing of payments and a decrease in accrued expenses of $24.2 million due to the timing of payments, partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $76.0 million due to the purchase of capital stock and dividend payment and a decrease in accounts receivable of $42.9 million. Foreign currency effects accounted for $57.7 million of the working capital change.

Property, plant and equipment, net decreased $39.8 million from $697.1 million at June 30, 2011 to $657.3 million at December 31, 2011, primarily due to depreciation expense of $41.3 million, unfavorable foreign currency impact of $27.6 million and capital disposals of $2.6 million, partially offset by capital additions of $35.6 million.

At December 31, 2011, other assets were $767.6 million, a decrease of $2.2 million from $769.8 million at June 30, 2011. The driver for the decrease was a decrease in goodwill of $16.6 million partially offset by an increase in other assets of $9.0 million, increase in other intangible assets of $3.3 million and increase in deferred income taxes of $2.2 million. The change in goodwill was primarily due to foreign currency translation effects. The increase in other assets was primarily due to increase in pension assets due to higher return on plan assets and prepaid royalty. The increase in other intangible assets was due to a technology license intangible asset acquisition in our infrastructure segment for $15.0 million offset by amortization expense of $6.7 million and unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustments of $5.0 million. Foreign currency effects accounted for $5.6 million in the change in deferred income taxes.

Kennametal shareowners’ equity was $1,610.2 million at December 31, 2011, a decrease of $27.9 million from $1,638.1 million at June 30, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to foreign currency translation adjustments of $100.7 million, purchase of capital stock of $66.7 million and cash dividends paid to shareowners of $21.1 million, partially offset by net income attributable to Kennametal of $145.7 million and capital stock issued under employee benefit and stock plans of $19.8 million.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The operation of our business has exposed us to certain liabilities and compliance costs related to environmental matters. We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation activities at certain of our locations.

Superfund Sites We are involved as a PRP at various sites designated by the US EPA as Superfund sites. For certain of these sites, we have evaluated the claims and potential liabilities and have determined that neither are material, individually or in the aggregate. For certain other sites, proceedings are in the very early stages and have not yet progressed to a point where it is possible to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation, the timing and extent of remedial action that may be required by governmental authorities or the amount of our liability alone or in relation to that of any other PRPs.

Other Environmental We establish and maintain reserves for other potential environmental costs, which amounted to $4.7 million and $5.4 million as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively. This accrual represents anticipated costs associated with the remediation of these issues. We recorded favorable foreign currency translation adjustments of $0.6 million and cash payments of $0.1 million against the reserve for the six months ended December 31, 2011.

The reserves we have established for environmental liabilities represent our best current estimate of the costs of addressing all identified environmental situations, based on our review of currently available evidence, and taking into consideration our prior experience in remediation and that of other companies, as well as public information released by the US EPA, other governmental agencies, and by the PRP groups in which we are participating. Although the reserves currently appear to be sufficient to cover these environmental liabilities, there are uncertainties associated with environmental liabilities, and we can give no assurance that our estimate of any environmental liability will not increase or decrease in the future. The reserved and unreserved exposures for all environmental concerns could change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the involvement of and direction taken by the government on these matters.

We maintain a Corporate EHS Department, as well as an EHS Steering Committee, to monitor compliance with environmental regulations and to oversee remediation activities. In addition, we have designated EHS coordinators who are responsible for each of our global manufacturing facilities. Our financial management team periodically meets with members of the Corporate EHS Department and the Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the status of environmental projects and contingencies. On a quarterly basis, we review financial provisions and reserves for environmental contingencies and adjust these reserves when appropriate.

DISCUSSION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies since June 30, 2011.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for a description of new accounting standards.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

There have been no material changes to our market risk exposure since June 30, 2011.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). The Company’s disclosure controls were designed to provide a reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, the controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the controls’ stated goals. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2011.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

SCHEDULE 3

Limitations on Liability

 

1 Scope

 

1.1 The Buyer shall not be entitled to claim for any indirect or consequential loss or loss of profit over and above that which it could claim in accordance with normal contractual principles governing measure of damages.

 

1.2 The Warrantors shall only be liable in respect of a Claim if and to the extent that such Claim becomes a determined Claim which shall mean a Claim:

 

  (a) which has been resolved by written agreement between the Warrantors and the Buyer; or

 

  (b) which is the subject of an order as to both liability and quantum made by a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction or arbitration where either no right of appeal lies or the parties are debarred (whether by the passage of time or otherwise) from exercising such a right.

 

1.3 Nothing in this Schedule shall have the effect of excluding, limiting or restricting any liability of a Warrantor in respect of a Claim arising as a result of fraud by that Warrantor.

 

1.4 Nothing in this Schedule shall have the effect of excluding, limiting or restricting any liability of a Warrantor in respect of a claim under clause 11 of the Tax Covenant and any reference to the Tax Covenant in this Schedule shall be read as excluding clause 11 of the Tax Covenant.

 

2 Cap on liability

 

2.1 The aggregate liability of the Warrantors in respect of all and any Claims and claims under the Tax Covenant shall not exceed €2,000,000. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that an individual Warrantor does not satisfy a Claim or (as the case may be) a claim under the Tax Covenant made against him, the Buyer shall not be entitled to bring a Claim or (as the case may be) a claim under the Tax Covenant against any of the other Warrantors in respect of such non-satisfaction. For the purposes of this paragraph, the liability of the Warrantors shall be deemed to include the amount of all costs, expenses, fees and other liabilities (together with any irrecoverable VAT) payable by the Warrantors in connection with the satisfaction, settlement or determination of any such Claim or (as the case may be) a claim under the Tax Covenant.

 

2.2 The aggregate liability of each Warrantor in respect of any and all claims under the Warranties and the Tax Covenant shall not exceed 75% of the amount of the Consideration set opposite his name in Schedule 1 of the SPA. The individual liability of each Warrantor in connection with any single claim under the Warranties shall be limited to the proportion of the claim which is equal to his Relevant Proportion.

 

3 Time limits for making Claims

No claim shall be brought against any Warrantor in respect of any of the Warranties or under the Tax Covenant unless the Buyer shall have given to the Warrantors’ Representatives written notice of such claim specifying (in reasonable detail) the matter which gives rise to the claim, the nature of the claim and, if practicable, the amount claimed in respect thereof in respect of a Claim or a claim under the Tax Covenant, within 18 months of the Completion date (the “Initial Warranty Period”),

PROVIDED THAT the liability of the Warrantors in respect of such claim shall absolutely determine (if such claim has not been previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn) if legal proceedings in

 

-27-


respect of such claim shall not have been commenced within 9 months (the “Claim Period”) of the service of such notice and for this purpose proceedings shall not be deemed to have been commenced unless they shall have been properly issued and validly served upon the Warrantors’ Representatives.

 

4 Right to remedy

 

4.1 Subject to paragraph 4.2 below, no Warrantor shall be liable for any Claim if and to the extent that the alleged breach which is the subject of the Claim is capable of remedy, and is remedied to the reasonable satisfaction of the Buyer by the Warrantors within 60 days of the date on which the notice in paragraph 3 above is received by the relevant Warrantor (and the Buyer agrees to use all reasonable endeavours to assist and to procure the assistance of the relevant Group Company in remedying such breach at the reasonable cost of the Warrantors).

 

4.2 Nothing in this paragraph 4 shall prevent the Buyer from making a claim in respect of any loss or damage incurred by the Buyer or any Group Company prior to the breach which is the subject of a Claim being remedied in accordance with paragraph 4.1 above.

 

5 Contingent liabilities

 

5.1 If any breach of the Warranties arises by reason of some liability of any Group Company or the Buyer which, at the time such breach or claim is notified to the Warrantors’ Representatives, is contingent only or otherwise not capable of being quantified, then the Warrantors shall not be under any obligation to make any payment in respect of such breach or claim unless and until such liability ceases to be contingent or becomes capable of being quantified.

 

5.2 If the Buyer has notified the Warrantors’ Representatives of a claim under the Warranties in accordance with paragraph 3 of this Schedule 3 within the Initial Warranty Period and such claim is based upon a liability which is contingent or otherwise not capable of being quantified, the Claim Period in paragraph 3 of this Schedule 3 shall be extended, in relation to any such claim, to the date falling 12 months after the end of the Initial Warranty Period.

 

6 Threshold and de minimis

 

6.1 The Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of any Claim or claim under the Tax Covenant unless the aggregate liability for all such Claims and claims under the Tax Covenant exceeds €1,500,000, in which case the relevant Warrantors shall be liable for the full amount of all such claims and not only the amount by which such sum is exceeded.

 

6.2 In calculating liability for Claims and claims under the Tax Covenant for the purposes of paragraph 6.1 above, any individual claim or series of related claims with respect to substantially the same facts or circumstances which is less than €75,000 (excluding interest, costs and expenses) shall be disregarded.

 

7 Changes in legislation

The Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of a Claim (other than a claim under the Tax Warranties) if such Claim would not have arisen but for, or is increased as a result of:

 

  (a) the passing of, or a change in, a law, rule, regulation, interpretation of the law or administrative practice of a government, governmental department, agency or regulatory body in any case occurring on or after the date of this Agreement; or

 

  (b) an increase in the Taxation rates or an imposition of Taxation in each case not actually or prospectively in force at the date of this Agreement; or

 

-28-


  (c) the change by statute or by any regulatory or other body of any accounting policy or a change in the application of any accounting policy or estimation technique in the preparation of financial statements by the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group.

 

8 Acts of Buyer

The Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of a Claim (other than a claim under the Tax Warranties) if such Claim is attributable to, or is increased as a result of:

 

  (a) any act, omission, transaction or arrangement carried out at the written request of or with the express approval of the Buyer before or at Completion; or

 

  (b) any voluntary act, omission, transaction or arrangement by a member of the Buyer’s Group or its employees or agents after Completion (otherwise than: (a) as required by law, or (b) as required by a binding agreement entered into before Completion, or (c) where a member of the Buyer’s Group is acting in the usual and ordinary course of the Group’s business as carried on up to Completion); or

 

  (c) any breach by the Buyer of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the documents referred to or incorporated in it or any obligations entered into pursuant thereto; or

 

  (d) any reorganisation or change in ownership of any member of the Buyer’s Group on or after Completion.

 

9 Mitigation

Nothing in this Schedule 3 restricts or limits the Buyer’s general obligation at law to mitigate any loss or damage which it may incur in consequence of a matter giving rise to a Claim.

 

10 Recovery from another person

 

10.1 If the Buyer, or any member of the Buyer’s Group, recovers (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief or otherwise) from a third party an amount which is referable to a Claim, any actual recovery (less any reasonable costs incurred in obtaining such recovery and less any Taxation attributable to the recovery after taking account of any tax relief available in respect of any matter giving rise to the Claim) shall to that extent reduce or satisfy, as the case may be, such Claim.

 

10.2 If the Warrantors pay an amount in respect of a Claim and the Buyer, or any member of the Buyer’s Group, subsequently recovers (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief or otherwise) from a third party an amount which is referable to the Claim, the Buyer shall procure that the relevant member of the Buyer’s Group shall pay to the Warrantors an amount equal to the lesser of the amount recovered from the third party (less any reasonable costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such recovery and any Tax payable on the recovery) and the amount previously paid by the Warrantors to the Buyer.

 

11 Conduct of Claims

 

11.1 If a member of the Buyer’s Group becomes aware of any claim or any matter or circumstance which might give rise to a Claim (other than a claim under the Tax Warranties) or of a right of action against or an entitlement to recover (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief, contribution, indemnity or otherwise) from a third party an amount which relates to the subject matter of a Claim:

 

  (a) the Buyer shall as soon as reasonably practicable give written notice to and consult with the Warrantors’ Representatives in respect of the claim, matter, circumstance or entitlement;

 

-29-


  (b) subject to the relevant Warrantor(s) indemnifying or securing the Buyer or the relevant member of the Buyer’s Group in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer against any liability, cost, damage or expense which may be properly incurred thereby (but without thereby implying any admission of liability on the part of such Warrantor), the Buyer shall, and shall procure that each member of the Buyer’s Group shall, unless the Buyer in its reasonable opinion considers that the goodwill of any Group Company will be materially and adversely affected by such action in which case it may refuse to take any such action :

 

  (i) at the written request and the cost of the Warrantors take such action or permit the Warrantors to take such action as the Warrantors consider appropriate to avoid, dispute, resist, appeal, defend, compromise or settle the Claim (including, without limitation, making any counterclaims or other claims against third parties) and any related adjudication or proceedings, and to conduct matters relating thereto including negotiations or appeals;

 

  (ii) provide to the Warrantors and their advisers reasonable access to premises and personnel and to relevant assets, documents and records within each member of the Buyer’s Group’s power or control for the purposes of investigating the matter or entitlement which allegedly gives rise to the Claim; and

 

  (iii) preserve all documents, records, correspondence, accounts, electronically stored data and other information whatsoever relevant to a matter which may give rise to a Claim.

 

  (c) the Warrantors (at their cost) may examine and take copies of the documents or records, and photograph the premises or assets, referred to in paragraph 11.1(b)(ii) above.

 

11.2 If a Claim (other than a claim under the Tax Warranties) is as a result of, or in connection with, a claim (other than a claim under the Tax Warranties) by or a liability to a third party then, subject to the relevant Warrantor(s) indemnifying or securing the Buyer or the relevant member of the Buyer’s Group in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer against any liability, cost, damage or expense which may be properly incurred thereby (but without thereby implying any admission of liability on the part of such Warrantor(s)), the Buyer shall and shall procure that each member of the Buyer’s Group shall, unless the Buyer in its reasonable opinion considers that the goodwill of any Group Company will be materially and adversely affected by such action in which case it may refuse to take any such action:

 

  (a) take all reasonable steps to enforce any right of recovery;

 

  (b) make no admission of liability in respect of, or compromise, dispose of or settle, any claim without the written consent of the Warrantors; and

 

  (c) allow the Warrantors at their own expense and in their absolute discretion to take such action, as described in paragraph 11.1(b) above, as the Warrantors deem necessary.

 

12 Insurance policies

In respect of any matter which would give rise to a Claim, if the Company and/or its Subsidiaries is entitled to claim under any policy of insurance then no such matter shall be the subject of a Claim unless and until the Buyer or, as the case may be, the relevant member of the Buyer’s Group shall have made a claim against its insurers and used all reasonable endeavours to pursue such claim and such claim has been settled or rejected by such insurer (unless the effect of this paragraph 12 would result in the Buyer losing its right to bring a Claim under the time period in paragraph 3 and the Warrantors do not agree to extend such time period).

 

-30-


13 Buyer’s knowledge

The Warrantors shall not be liable for any Claim under this Agreement or a claim under the Tax Covenant if and to the extent that the Buyer deal team (being John Tucker, Kevin Nowe, William Thalman, Patrick Watson, Jay Klein, Frank Simpkins, Phil Weihl, Wayne Moser, Kemal Yegeonoglu, Filippo Mecacci, George Coulston, Simone Pratesi, Staci Miller and John Oskin) is:

 

  (a) in respect of the Warranties (other than the Repeated Warranties), actually aware at the date of this Agreement of matters which do or would give rise to or would be reasonably likely to give rise to a Claim;

 

  (b) in respect of the Repeated Warranties only, actually aware as at the Repeated Warranty Date of matters which do or would give rise to or would be reasonably likely to give rise to a Claim under the Repeated Warranties; or

 

  (c) in respect of the Tax Covenant, actually aware as at the date of Completion of matters which do or would give rise to or would be reasonably likely to give rise to a claim under the Tax Covenant PROVIDED THAT no matter of which the Buyer deal team (as set out above) is actually aware at Completion which (i) the Warrantors were actually aware at the date of this Agreement; and (ii) the Buyer deal team (as set out above) was not actually aware at the date of this Agreement, shall so operate as to restrict the Buyer’s entitlement to recover under the Tax Covenant.

 

14 Allowance, provision or reserve in the Accounts

No matter shall be subject to a Claim or a claim under the Tax Covenant to the extent that specific allowance, specific provision or specific reserve in respect of such matter shall have been made in the Accounts or Management Accounts or such matter was referred to specifically in the notes thereto.

 

15 Taxation

The Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of any breach of the Tax Warranties to the extent that such liability is excluded by virtue of the provisions contained in clause 3 of the Tax Covenant.

 

16 No double recovery

The Buyer shall not be entitled to recover from the Warrantors more than once for the same damage or loss suffered.

 

17 Net benefit

 

17.1 The Warrantors shall not be liable for any Claim to the extent that the subject of the Claim or a claim under the Tax Covenant has been or is made good or is otherwise compensated for without cost or loss to the Buyer’s Group or to the Company or any Subsidiaries.

 

17.2 The Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of any Claim (other than a claim under the Tax Warranties) for any losses suffered by the Buyer, or any member of the Buyer’s Group, to the extent that there are any corresponding savings by or net benefit to the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group related to the Claim.

 

18 Transferability of rights

This Agreement shall be actionable only by the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group to whom rights are assigned under this Agreement and no other party shall be entitled to make any Claim or take any action whatsoever against the Warrantors under or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement.

 

-31-


19 Taxation, Pensions, Property, Environment and Intellectual Property

Without prejudice to the generality of the Warranties in paragraphs 3 (The Accounts ), 4 (Management Accounts and Locked Box Accounts), 5 (Accounting Records), 6 (Events since the Accounts Date), 9 (Tax), 11 (Compliance and Litigation) and 12 (Licences), no claim may be made against the Warrantors under the Warranties:

 

  (a) save pursuant to the Warranties contained in paragraph 16 of Schedule 2 of this Agreement, to the extent that the Claim relates to Employees; or

 

  (b) save pursuant to the Warranties contained in paragraph 16 of Schedule 2 of this Agreement, to the extent that the Claim relates to the Relevant Schemes;

 

  (c) save pursuant to the Warranties contained in paragraph 13 of Schedule 2 of this Agreement, to the extent that the Claim relates to Intellectual Property; or

 

  (d) save pursuant to the Warranties contained in paragraph 13 of Schedule 2 of this Agreement, to the extent that the Claim relates to Information Technology; or

  (f) save pursuant to the Warranties contained in paragraph 9 of Schedule 2 of this Agreement, to the extent that the Claim relates to Taxation (irrespective of whether the Taxation relates to any of the above).

 

20 Disclosure

The Buyer shall not be entitled to claim that any matter causes the Warranties to be breached to the extent that any matter is Disclosed in the First Disclosure Letter or, in the case of the Repeated Warranties, is Disclosed in the Second Disclosure Letter.
